The 4.1-acre site is developed with two single-unit residences at the northeast of the property with the rest of the site vacant land. The property is surrounded by low density residential uses, commercial and office uses, a fire station, a park, and a golf course. Birch Street, adjacent to the subject property, was realigned and the status of the vacation or sale of the right-of-way is under review by the Public Works Department for inclusion in the project site. Project Description The Municipal Code requires the following discretionary applications for the project: • A Minor Use Permit is required to allow a new medical office building; • A Site Development Review is required for all nonresidential construction projects over 20,000 gross square feet; • A Traffic Study is required due to the projected increase in traffic resulting from the proposed project pursuant to the City's Traffic Phasing Ordinance; and • A Tentative Parcel Map application for the resubdivision of four parcels into three parcels for commercial development and condominium purposes. The project description (Attachment No. PC 2) summarizes the applicant's intent to develop a medical office complex. As shown in the photographic simulations (Attachment No. PC 3) and the materials board (photograph provided as Attachment No. PC 4), the project design includes two grey and white buildings planned for medical office use located near the middle of the property and surrounded by surface parking, drive aisles, and landscaping. A drop-off and pick-up area is located at the front of the buildings near the vehicular entrance from Birch Street. A six-foot high block wall is proposed along the rear and side property lines. Building 1 (northeast) is 19,978 square feet in gross floor area and Building 2 (southwest) is 44,000 square feet in gross floor area. The design includes obscure glazing facing the residential properties intended to provide privacy to these properties. Both buildings will feature two-story glass entry ways with a slight curve on the front of Building 2 facing Birch Street. Both buildings have lobbies with elevators, stairs, and restrooms. An outdoor courtyard is provided between the two buildings as an amenity for employees and visitors, and will also serve as a pathway to the rear parking area and the front building entrances along Birch Street. The proposed landscaping consists of several tree species, shrubs, and groundcover, and includes drought-tolerant plants. The parcel map will combine several parcels into three lots and authorize the suites to 5 be sold as condominiums. The Tentative Parcel Map is provided as Attachment No. PC 5 and the Project Plans are provided as Attachment No. PC 6. Background On October 18, 2007, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 1735 adopting a mitigated negative declaration and approving a tentative parcel map, use permit, and traffic study for the construction of four, two-story medical office buildings totaling 64,973 square feet of gross floor area with an underground parking garage. This previous project was not implemented and the Traffic Study has expired. The parcel map remains active; therefore, the previous use permit has not expired and would become null and void should the proposed project be approved and constructed. The project site included only the vacant parcels, and the proposed project includes approximately one additional acre of land. DISCUSSION Analysis Consistency with the General Plan and Zoning Code The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the subject property as General Commercial Office (CO-G) with the maximum floor area to land area ratio ("FAR") of 0.50 (CO-G 0.50), which provides for administrative, professional, and medical offices with limited accessory retail and service uses. The subject property is located within the Business Park District of the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan Zoning District (SP-7 BP), which provides for the development and maintenance of professional and administrative offices, commercial uses, specific uses related to product development, and limited light industrial uses. Pursuant to Section 20.90.120 (Business Park District: SP-7, BP), medical office uses are a principal permitted use subject to the approval of a minor use permit. The district guidelines emphasize the protection of the adjacent residential uses through regulation of building mass and height, landscape buffers, and architectural design features. The proposed projeFct is consistent with these designations as the project consists of medical office development with a 0.36 FAR. The proposed design includes a large setback from the abutting residential uses with a perimeter site wall, landscaping, and surface parking. Staff believes the architectural design of the project meets the intent of the SP-7 BP District as discussed below. Furthermore, the project includes the removal of nonconforming residential uses consistent with the CO-G and BP designations, helping to achieve the overall goal of a high quality business park. Applicable General Plan Policies LU 5.2.1 (Architecture and Site Design) requires that new development exhibit a high level of architectural and site design. LU 5.2.2 (Buffering Residential Areas) requires that commercial uses adjoining residential uses be designed to be compatible and minimize impacts. The proposed buildings are designed with complementary colors and materials, including white, light grey, and dark grey painted concrete, with high performance glazing windows and grey and white aluminum accents. The buildings are separated by a courtyard and include two-story glass entryways and a slight curve on the front of the larger building to provide architectural interest. The proposed landscaping includes a mix of trees, shrubs, and ground cover along the perimeter of the site, around the edge of the buildings, and throughout the parking areas. The proposed buildings are separated from the abutting residential properties by 78 feet to the south and 138 feet to the east, and this area would contain parking with a site wall and landscaping along the property lines. The proposed project includes two trash enclosures with a solid roof and two enclosed areas for emergency backup generators. A photometric study would be required as a condition of approval to ensure that the proposed lighting will be designed to meet City safety standards and the lighting will be maintained to shield the adjacent residential properties and not produce glare onto adjacent roadways. Staff believes the design meets the intent of the Land Use Policies. Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan Design Guidelines Pursuant to Section 20.90.030 (Design Guidelines), the intent of the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan Design Guidelines is to promote a consistent, high quality character of development that will result in the overall enhancement of the aesthetic character of the community. These guidelines are available online: http://www.codepublishing.com/CA/NewportBeach/?newportbeach20/NewportBeach2O9O.htmI The majority of the guidelines are mandatory by the use of the term "shall" and some are flexible using terms such as "encourage;" however, most of the guidelines involve the exercise of independent judgment. Use of the guidelines in project review implements the goals of the business park area through careful use of building forms and materials, streetscape concepts, setback and buffer areas and a unifying landscape concept. These guidelines are created to address the architectural design for business park uses and landscape criteria for all uses within the Santa Ana Heights area. The proposed two-story buildings are 36 feet in height, provide sufficient setbacks from all property lines, and include a courtyard to separate the buildings. The hardscape includes enhanced paving at the pick-up/drop off area, front of the buildings, and courtyard. The architectural design creates visual interest through building articulation, window treatments, and blending with landscaping. The mechanical equipment, refuse, and generators are proposed to be screened from view. Staff believes that the project is designed within this framework and sufficiently complies with the guidelines to warrant project approval. Business Park (BP) District Development Standards Section 20.90.120 (Business Park District: SP-7 — BP) establishes the required site development standards. The subject property is required to provide a 10-foot front setback along the Birch Street property line and zero foot side setback along the northern side property line. The rear setback and southern side setback are 75 feet due to the proposed building height and because the property abuts the Residential Equestrian (REQ) District. The buildings would provide more than the minimum required setback from each property line. The maximum floor area is determined by a ratio of floor area to land area (FAR). The 178,405-square-foot site can be developed with a maximum 0.50 FAR, which allows for 89,203 square feet of gross floor area. The proposed project includes a total floor area of 64,000 square feet (0.36 FAR), which is below the maximum 0.50 FAR. The BP District regulations refer to Section 20.40.040 (Off-Street Parking Spaces Required) to establish the parking requirement. Medical office uses are required to provide one parking space for every 200 square feet of gross floor area. The gross floor area of the proposed buildings is 64,000 square feet; therefore, the proposed project would require 320 spaces. The proposed project includes surface parking with 324 parking spaces, so the project would provide a surplus of four spaces above code. Table 1 summarizes the code requirements and proposed project design, which is in compliance with the required development standards. Table 1 — Development Standards Development Standard Requirement Proposed Building Site Area 19,000 sf minimum Total for 3 lots: 178,405 sf Site Coverage 40% 18% Floor Area Ratio (FAR) 0.50 0.36 Building Height 37' 36' Front Setback 10' 77' 8" and 111' 2" Side Setback (North) 0' 46' 6" Side Setback South 75' 78' Rear Setback 75' 138' Landscaping Setback— 10' 10' Front Landscaping Setback— 3' 5' Side (North) Landscaping Setback - 10' 10' Side South & Rear Parking 320 spaces (1/200) 324 spaces g Minor Use Permit Pursuant to Section 20.90.120 (Business Park District: SP-7, BP), medical office uses are a principal permitted use subject to the approval of a minor use permit. In accordance with Section 20.52.020 (Conditional Use Permits and Minor Use Permits), the Planning Commission must make the following findings for approval of a minor use permit: 1. The use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan. 2. The use is allowed within the applicable zoning district and complies with all other applicable provisions of the Zoning Code and the Municipal Code. 3. The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the use are compatible with the allowed uses in the vicinity. 4. The site is physically suitable in terms of design, location, shape, size, operating characteristics, and the provision of public and emergency vehicle (e.g., fire and medical) access and public services and utilities. 5. Operation of the use at the location proposed would not be detrimental to the harmonious and orderly growth of the City, or endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed use. As demonstrated in the draft resolution (Attachment No. PC 1), staff believes the findings for approval can be made. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan and Zoning District designations as it is a medical office development with a 0.36 FAR. The lot is 4.1 acres in area (178,405 square feet), generally rectangular in shape, located in a commercial area with residential uses nearby, and would be developed with two, two-story medical office buildings. The proposed buildings would be 36 feet in height, provide sufficient setbacks from all property lines, and include a courtyard to separate the buildings. The buildings would be constructed with high performance glazing windows resulting in privacy to residential uses to the south and east. The hardscape includes enhanced paving at the drop off area, front of the buildings, and courtyard. The architectural design creates visual interest through building articulation, window treatments, and blending with landscaping. The mechanical equipment, refuse, and generators are proposed to be screened from view. The proposed landscaping includes trees, shrubs, and groundcover and the landscape setbacks are met or exceeded with the proposed project design. The proposed project includes surface parking with 324 parking spaces, which would provide a surplus of four spaces above the code requirement. The subject property is located among other medical office uses along Birch Street to the north. The proposed medical office uses would operate as a typical medical office use, and the operating characteristics would be compatible with the allowed commercial and residential uses in the vicinity. The site has pedestrian and vehicular access along Birch Street and the two driveways proposed will be constructed pursuant to City Standards and reviewed and approved by the Public Works Department. The proposed site design includes the provision of emergency vehicle access and public services and utilities. The proposed use is similar to and compatible with other office uses in the vicinity, and would not be detrimental to the abutting residential uses due to the office nature of the business and location of the buildings on-site. Site Development Review Pursuant to Section 20.52.080 (Site Development Review), a Site Development Review is required for a new nonresidential building over 20,000 square feet in gross floor area to ensure a quality project with respect to consistency with the General Plan polices, the physical characteristics of the site, and minimizing potential negative visual impacts. The Planning Commission must make the following findings in order to approve a Site Development Review: 1. Allowed within the subject zoning district, 2. In compliance with all of the applicable criteria [below]: i. Compliance with this section, the General Plan, this Zoning Code, any applicable specific plan, and other applicable criteria and policies related to the use or structure; ii. The efficient arrangement of structures on the site and the harmonious relationship of the structures to one another and to other adjacent developments; and whether the relationship is based on standards of good design; iii. The compatibility in terms of bulk, scale, and aesthetic treatment of structures on the site and adjacent developments and public areas; iv. The adequacy, efficiency, and safety of pedestrian and vehicular access, including drive aisles, driveways, and parking and loading spaces; v. The adequacy and efficiency of landscaping and open space areas and the use of water efficient plant and irrigation materials; and vi. The protection of significant views from public right(s)-of-way and compliance with Section 20.30.100 (Public View Protection); and 3. Not detrimental to the harmonious and orderly growth of the City, nor endangers, jeopardizes, or otherwise constitutes a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed development. As demonstrated in the draft resolution (Attachment No. PC 1), staff believes the findings for approval can be made. The discussion within the Minor Use Permit section above includes support for the Site Development Review findings. Additionally, the proposed design would provide for harmonious relationships with one another and with the adjacent surroundings through site layout and positioning of the two buildings. The project design includes two grey and white office buildings located near the middle of the property surrounded by surface parking, drive aisles, and landscaping. Several tree species are proposed for a total of 121 trees throughout the site. The architectural design of the buildings includes obscure glazing facing the residential properties -D intended to provide privacy to the community. Both buildings would feature two story glass entry ways with a slight curve on the front of Building 2 facing Birch Street. An outdoor courtyard is provided between the two buildings as an amenity for employees and visitors, and will also serve as an access between the rear parking area and the front building entrances along Birch Street. The landscaped areas along Birch Street include shrubs to screen the parking areas from view. A six-foot high block wall is proposed along the rear and side property lines. Traffic Study Municipal Code Chapter 15.40 (Traffic Phasing Ordinance) requires that a traffic study be prepared and findings be made if a proposed project will generate in excess of 300 average daily trips (ADT). Pursuant to Section 15.40.030.A, the Planning Commission must make the following findings in order to approve the project: 1. That a traffic study for the project has been prepared in compliance with this chapter and Appendix A; 2. That, based on the weight of the evidence in the administrative record, including the traffic study, one of the findings for approval in subsection (8) can be made: 15.40.030.8.1 Construction of the project will be completed within 60 months of project approval; or 15.40.030.8.1(a) The project will neither cause nor make an unsatisfactory level of traffic service at any impacted intersection. 3. That the project proponent has agreed to make or fund the improvements, or make the contributions, that are necessary to make the findings for approval and to comply with all conditions of approval. A traffic study, titled "Traffic Impact Analysis for the proposed Newport Executive Center" dated November 2014 (Provided as Appendix E to the Addendum in Attachment No. PC 7), was prepared by Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. under the supervision of the City Traffic Engineer pursuant to the Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) and its implementing guidelines. The traffic study concluded that the project generated trips would not result in a significant traffic impact. Construction of the project is anticipated to be completed in 2016. The project is expected to generate 2,293 new trips on a typical weekday, with 152 morning peak hour trips and 226 evening peak hour trips. The traffic study indicates that the project will neither cause nor make worse an unsatisfactory level of service at any impacted primary intersection, and all intersections are forecasted to continue to operate at acceptable Levels of Service. Therefore, staff recommends that the Planning Commission find that the traffic study has been prepared in compliance with the TPO, subject to the findings and facts in support of findings provided in the draft resolution (Attachment No. PC 1). 11 Tentative Parcel Map The Tentative Parcel Map application is requested for the resubdivision of four parcels into three parcels and for condominium purposes. Each building would be on its own lot with the remainder of the site as a lettered common lot. Parcel 1 would be 11,159 square feet and contain Building 1, Parcel 2 would be 23,106 square feet and contain Building 2, and Parcel A would be 143,572 square feet and include parking and landscaping. Building 1 would have up to four condominium units and Building 2 would have up to six condominium units. In accordance with Section 19.12.070 (Required Findings for Action on Tentative Maps), the Planning Commission must make the following findings for approval of a parcel map: 1. That the proposed map and the design or improvements of the subdivision are consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan, and with applicable provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and this Subdivision Code; 2. That the site is physically suitable for the type and density of development, 3. That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage nor substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the decision making body may nevertheless approve such a subdivision if an environmental impact report was prepared for the project and a finding was made pursuant to Section 21081 of the California Environmental Quality Act that specific economic, social or other considerations make infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the environmental impact report,- 4. eport,4. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems; 5. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. In this connection, the decision making body may approve a map if it finds that alternate easements, for access or for use, will be provided and that these easements will be substantially equivalent to ones previously acquired by the public. This finding shall apply only to easements of record or to easements established by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and no authority is hereby granted to the City Council to determine that the public at large has acquired easements for access through or use of property within a subdivision; 6. That, subject to the detailed provisions of Section 66474.4 of the Subdivision Map Act, if the land is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965 (Williamson Act), the resulting parcels following a subdivision of the land would not be too small to sustain their agricultural use or the subdivision will result in residential development incidental to the commercial agricultural use of the land; 12 7. That, in the case of a "land project" as defined in Section 11000.5 of the California Business and Professions Code: (1) There is an adopted specific plan for the area to be included within the land project; and (2) the decision making body finds that the proposed land project is consistent with the specific plan for the area; 8. That solar access and passive heating and cooling design requirements have been satisfied in accordance with Sections 66473.1 and 66475.3 of the Subdivision Map Act, 9. That the subdivision is consistent with Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act and Section 65584 of the California Government Code regarding the City's share of the regional housing need and that it balances the housing needs of the region against the public service needs of the City's residents and available fiscal and environmental resources; 10. That the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into the existing sewer system will not result in a violation of existing requirements prescribed by the Regional Water Quality Control Board; and 11.For subdivisions lying partly or wholly within the Coastal Zone, that the subdivision conforms with the certified Local Coastal Program and, where applicable, with public access and recreation policies of Chapter Three of the Coastal Act. Staff believes the findings for approval can be made, as demonstrated in the draft resolution (Attachment No. PC 1). The project is consistent with the General Plan, Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan, and Subdivision Code. The Public Works Department has reviewed the proposed parcel map and has concluded that it is consistent with the Subdivision Code, and conditions of approval will be included to ensure compliance with applicable requirements. The 4.1-acre site is regular in shape, has a slope of less than 20 percent, and is not within a zone deemed to be subject to seismically induced liquefaction potential. The proposed medical office buildings would comply with the maximum 0.5 FAR. The site is suitable for the type and density of development proposed in that the infrastructure serving the site and surrounding area has been designed and developed to accommodate the proposed project. The proposed project is not located near a fish or wildlife habitat and the design of the subdivision will not cause substantial damage to habitat. The site is developed in a highly urbanized area and no significant natural resources exist in the area of the project site. The design of the development will not conflict with any easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed development as there are no public access easements that are located on the property. Sufficient site access is provided with the proposed parcel map. The proposed Parcel Map locates the buildings towards the middle of the property with 30 feet between the two buildings, which allows for future passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities. I3 Alternatives The Planning Commission has the option to approve a revised project based on the required findings for approval. Should the Planning Commission deny the project if any of the required findings cannot be made, the Commission should provide direction to staff regarding the facts for denial and continue the application to allow staff time to draft a resolution for project denial. Environmental Review On October 18, 2007, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 1735 adopting an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration ("IS/MND") that was prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), the State CEQA Guidelines, and City Council Policy K-3. The project reviewed under the IS/MND included a Tentative Parcel Map, Use Permit, and Traffic Study to allow the construction of four, two-story medical office buildings consisting of approximately 65,000 gross floor area over a parking structure on a vacant 3.06-acre site. The applicant proposes to include additional land area to the project site, demolition of two single-unit dwellings, and construction of two, two-story medical office buildings totaling 64,000 square feet in gross floor area. Due to these proposed changes compared with the approved project, an Addendum to the IS/MND (Attachment No. PC 7) was prepared pursuant to Section 15162 (Subsequent EIRs and Negative Declarations) and 15164 (Addendum to an EIR or Negative Declaration of the State CEQA Guidelines. The City retained Kimley-Horn and Associates to prepare the Addendum and a revised Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program ("MMRP") was also prepared, and all applicable mitigation measures from the previous MMRP were included. The analysis in the Addendum shows that the proposed project will not result in any new significant impacts that were not analyzed in the Newport Executive Court Project IS/MND, nor will the project cause a substantial increase in the severity of any previously identified environmental impacts. The potential impacts associated with this proposed project would either be the same or less than those described in the IS/MND. In addition, there are no substantial changes to the circumstances under which the proposed project would be undertaken that would result in new or more severe environmental impacts than previously addressed in the IS/MND, nor has any new information regarding the potential for new or more severe significant environmental impacts been identified. Therefore, in accordance with Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines, this Addendum to the previously adopted IS/MND is the appropriate environmental documentation for the proposed project. In taking action on any of the approvals for the proposed project, the Planning Commission considered the whole of the data presented in the IS/MND, as augmented by this Addendum, and the previously adopted MMRP. -14 Public Notice Notice of this application was published in the Daily Pilot, mailed to all owners of property within 300 feet of the boundaries of the site (excluding intervening rights-of- way and waterways) including the applicant and posted on the subject property at least 10 days before the scheduled meeting, consistent with the provisions of the Municipal Code. Additionally, the item appeared on the agenda for this meeting, which was posted at City Hall and on the City website.

SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS. Minor Use Permit In accordance with Section 20.52.020(F) (Conditional and Minor Use Permits) of the Municipal Code, the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth: Finding: A. The use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the subject property as General Commercial Office (CO-G) with the maximum floor area to land area ratio ("FAR") of 0.50 (CO-G 0.50), which is intended to provide for administrative, professional, and medical offices with limited accessory retail and service uses. The 07-22-2014 20 Planning Commission Resolution No. Page 3 of 18 proposed project is consistent with this designation as it is a medical office development with a 0.36 FAR. 2.

Facts in Support of Finding 1. California Business and Professions Code Section 11000.5 was repealed by the Legislature in 2006 via Assembly Bill 2711. However, the proposed subdivision is not a "land project," as defined in prior California Business and Professions Code Section 11000.5 because it does not consist of 50 or more parcels. Finding S. That solar access and passive heating and cooling design requirements have been satisfied in accordance with Sections 66473.1 and 66475.3 of the Subdivision Map Act. 07-22-2014 so Planning Commission Resolution No. Page 13 of 18 Facts in Support of Finding 1. The proposed Parcel Map locates the buildings towards the middle of the property with 30 feet between the two buildings, which allows for future passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities. The proposed building height is 36 feet, which is compatible with other structures in the area. The proposed improvements are subject to Title 24 of the California Building Code that requires new construction to meet minimum heating and cooling efficiency standards based on location and climate. The Newport Beach Building Division enforces Title 24 compliance through the plan check and inspection process. Finding T. That the subdivision is consistent with Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act and Section 65584 of the California Government Code regarding the City's share of the regional housing need and that it balances the housing needs of the region against the public service needs of the City's residents and available fiscal and environmental resources. Facts in Support of Finding 1. The General Plan and Zoning Code designate the site for commercial uses. The proposed project does not create residential units; however, the project does generate jobs. The City's Housing Element addresses the regional housing needs to ensure that job and housing are balanced. Finding U. That the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into the existing sewer system will not result in a violation of existing requirements prescribed by the Regional Water Quality Control Board. Facts in Support of Finding 1. Wastewater discharge from the project into the existing sewer system has been designed to comply with the Regional Water Quality Control Board ("RWQCB") requirements.

Newport Heights Medical Center is a proposed 2- building office development project totaling 64,000 square feet with use permits allowing for medical office uses and or non- overnight stay surgical centers. The proposed project is located at 20352, 20354, 20362, 20372, 20382, 20392, 20402 and 20412 Birch Street in the Santa Ana Heights area of Newport Beach. The sites total 178,405 square feet and 133,000 square feet of the sites are currently vacant while the balance is improved with houses and storage structures totaling approximately 13,209 square feet. The existing structures will be razed for the construction of the planned project. Real Estate Development Associates, LLC, the applicant is proposing to raze the existing structures and build a total of 64,000 square feet of new building area for a net increase of approximately 50,791 square feet of buildable area. The buildings will be surface parked and will provide 324 stalls satisfying the City of Newport Beach parking requirement of 5/1,000 which is required for medical uses. The proposed project density will be 36% which is a reduction of density by 13% from the currently approved project for parcels 06,07,10,26 and 27 (Planning Commission Resolution No. 1735, October 18, 2007). The existing project was initially entitled for a medical office building, however it was never built. The new office buildings are designed with obscure glazing facing the residential properties to eliminate any sightlines and provide privacy to the community. Both buildings will feature two story glass entry ways with slight curve on the front of Building 2 facing Birch Street. Both buildings are designed with lobbies for patients and staffing. The lobby designed in the larger of the two buildings spans 40 feet by 32 feet and includes two elevators, men's and women's lavatories and a central stair case to enhance circulation throughout the building. The other lobby located in the smaller medical office building spans 30 feet by 20 feet and includes men and women lavatories, an elevator and a centralized stair case as well. An employee / patent out door amenity area will be situated between the two buildings and will also serve as an access point bringing patients and employees from the rear parking area to the projects front entrance along Birch Street. This court yard is planned to create a public open space in the middle of the two medical office buildings. Trees such as Brisbane Box, Fruitless Olive and Fern Pine have been planned along with low flowering shrubs and groundcover. The areas surrounding these proposed structures will consist of parking and drive lanes, landscape planters, and decorative concrete flatwork. Parking is currently not allowed on Mesa Drive or Birch Street. All designs include fire lanes and ADA entry's/exits. There will be a six foot high wall and landscaping along the border of the property between the surrounding properties. This landscaping wall will be built of CMU and will span 554 feet east/west from Birch Street along the property line and continue at a 90 degree angle spanning north/east for another 474 feet. The landscaping wall is planned to curve at another 90 degrees and stretch back to Birch Street, insuring the project if fully enveloped and separated from the surrounding residential zones. The positioning of the buildings on the site moves the buildings closer to Birch Street and additionally separates them from the adjacent neighboring residential properties at the south and west. Two trash enclosures would be located at the eastern corners of the site (one at each corner). An adequate number of bins and containers will be located and enclosed within the trash disposal areas, including a storage system for the removal of recyclable waste that is generated as byproduct of the project. The waste areas will be properly secured to prevent access by any unauthorized persons, while also allowing authorized personal to access and dispose of such materials. Along with trash enclosures the project will include two (2) separate enclosed generators for each building. The generators with be located in the North-East and South-West corners of the buildings. The generator enclosures will total approximately 18' x 25' and will be fully screened and enclosed. The two (2) buildings totaling in 64,000 square feet have a proposed height of thirty six feet (36). The project will be constructed with concrete tilt-up panels painted in an attractive color scheme to attract attention yet blend in with the surrounding adjacent commercial and residential buildings. Sewage disposal will tie directly into the Newport Beach sewage lines. An additional 22 foot drainage easement will tie into the city of Orange, located in the south/west corner of the property. Justification As the commercial real estate market has rebounded, the medical office sector has seen tremendous activity and growth. Currently, there is a 6.4% vacancy rate for medical office space in the greater Newport Beach and Costa Mesa submarket. Most of this product is either concentrated in Newport Center or adjacent to Hoag Hospital and is second or third generation product past its useful life. We believe there is a substantial void in the market for a new quality medical office buildings servicing the greater Newport Beach area. With direct access to the Newport Heights area via Irvine Ave. and the Irvine Business Center (IBC) we feel this is a great location which links the business core to the coastal residential core. Additionally, the site is strategically located near the John Wayne Airport and 73 toll road which will allow quick access to the site medical users or patients throughout Orange County. 40 Additionally, we have had discussions with several users interested in this modified project plan that would like to take advantage of the current demand in the medical office market. Accordingly, we believe the Newport Executive Center could be very successful for both the Santa Ana Heights area and the City of Newport Beach. 4.) Accompanying Written Statement: a. What is the existing use(s) of the property? The existing uses of the property are vacant land and two residential units currently rented out on a month to month basis. b. What improvements and public utilities are proposed to be made or installed and when are said improvements proposed to be completed? The projects public improvements / utilities have yet to be designed. However, the following are utilities which are serviced in the area. Water - Irvine Ranch Water District Sewer and Wastewater Treatment — City of Newport Beach Solid Waste — Orange County Integrated Waste Management Department Electricity— Southern California Edison Natural Gas- Southern California Edison There is a sewer trunk line maintained by the City of Newport Beach and a buried gas line maintained by Southern California Gas Company is currently located at the northwest corner of the site. The proposed project site previously supported residential uses, but is currently mostly vacant. The proposed project would consolidate the vacant lots and two residential lots for development of two, two-story medical offices and surface parking with associated landscaping and hardscape, surrounding the buildings. Based on preliminary engineering, each building is anticipated to require service of 3" water line, 2" wastewater and 6" sewer line. However, final engineering has not been completed. Any improvements will be completed during construction of the proposed project and in accordance with City of Newport Beach requirements, standards and municipal code. c. What is the provision(s) for sewage and sewage disposal? The Irvine Regional Water District (IRWD) provides water, recycled water, and wastewater services to the proposed project site. The IRWD has a water resources master plan (WRMP) that identifies existing and future water supply and demand. The WRMP is periodically reviewed in relationship to current and future development projects within the IRWD districts. The applicant is required to obtain a "will serve" or "statement of certification" letter from IRWD stating that adequate water and 41 wastewater treatment capacity is available to serve the project. The applicant's engineer will estimate the sewage flow generation expected of the proposed development and calculate facility sizing within the development. It is anticipated that the system will be adequate to provide sewer service to the proposed project. d. What, if any, public area(s) is proposed? The project will feature an outdoor employee and visitor gathering area. This court yard will be situated between the two buildings and will serve as a gathering area and outdoor amenity area for both employees and visitors to the project. The court yard will feature hard and soft scape which will soften the area and provide shade and an inviting ambiance. e. What, if any, tree planting(s) is proposed? Trees such as Brisbane Box, Fruitless Olive and Fern Pine have been planned along with low flowering shrubs and groundcover throughout the project. Trees with low intrusive root structures have been selected to minimize and future root damage. As well as, trees which are low in maintenance so there isn't an abundance of droppings throughout the project. f. If any, briefly list and attach a copy of any restrictive covenants proposed. The proposed projects CC&R's have not been drafted and completed at this time. Since each building will have its own footprint and the common area of the project will be a single parcel, there will be at a minimum a set of easement agreements covering the property, along with some restrictions to parking. A draft of the CC&R's will be circulated for review to the City if required. 42 Attachment No. PC 3 Photographic Simulations 43 �� QP �� ��P P�" O� �� �� \�� P •.J, oAf r � � �. ?t'.- .. �,�f ' �, � ��i.� "l,r;�,1s !� _�� M _.. ;.�; dh � - — a� I� II _ -ryy ��� - �. _l` - —. _ __ i FT _ ._ - _ . - -9; - iw_o� - rf IL T J ■ Tena'an't ` licginacgcE oil mill MIN Mill! 1 V G imam _ � I oil - i I i1 I i 40 I � low 1 A.g r a - - I I �� QP �� ��P P�" O� �� �� \�� Attachment No. PC 4 Photograph of Materials Board 5S �� QP �� ��P P�" O� �� �� \�� I� 1 NOR f WeAb" Exterior Material Board yy �y * (�/y� dR E DA REAi E4TAT[f1RYE10►ME194 ASSOCtI{7ESpr-p lo%4m '�VARE ':'1t1t4►�COMB 68;Y; �� QP �� ��P P�" O� �� �� \�� Attachment No. PC 5 Tentative Parcel Map -57 �� QP �� ��P P�" O� �� �� \�� \ I ITENTATIVE RECORD OWNER: SUBDIVIDER: MAP PREPARER: PARCEL MAP NO@ 2014�171 NEWPORT EXECUTIVE COURT, LLC REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATES, LLC WALDEN & ASSOCIATES A CALIFORNIA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY A CALIFORNIA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY 2552 WHITE RD., SUITE B / 20412 SW BIRCH STREET 4100 MACARTHUR BLVD., SUITE 120 IRVINE, CA 92614 NEWPORT BEACH, CA 92660 NEWPORT BEACH, CA 92660 (949) 660-0110 FOR CONDOMINIUM PURPOSES 949-743-1463 JEFFREY A.

The project, as originally proposed, deviated from a portion of the landscape guidelines which require a planting island every eight parking spaces that is three feet wide and the length of the parking stalls. Instead, the applicant proposed a diamond-shaped planter every five stalls with long islands at the end of some rows of parking. The revised plan includes a reduction in landscaping around the perimeter of the buildings, and is consistent with applicable Zoning Code requirements, including the minimum landscaping requirements. The revised plan includes 322 parking spaces, which is 2 more than the 320 spaces required by code (64,000/200). The Guidelines, Section 20.90.030 of the Zoning Code, are available online: http://www.codepublishing.com/CA/NewportBeach/?NewportBeach20/NewportBeach2O9O.htmI While staff believes that both the original and revised site plans meet the intent of the Design Guidelines, staff recommends that the Planning Commission consider the revised option as it is more consistent with the SP-7 parking lot landscaping requirements. Should the Commission approve the revised plan, the Resolution would need to be updated with the revised parking calculations (redlines attached). DevelopmentCommunity ..

On October 18, 2007, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 1735 adopting an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration ("IS/MND") that was prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), the State CEQA Guidelines, and City Council Policy K-3. The project reviewed under the IS/MND included a Tentative Parcel Map, Use Permit, and Traffic Study to allow the construction of four, two-story medical office buildings consisting of approximately 65,000 gross floor area over a parking structure on a vacant 3.06-acre site. Planning Commission - February 19, 2015 Item No. 2a: Additional Materials Received Planning CcBinailssMe(Me: JI0 frcN9.(PA2014-121 ) Page 2 of 18 2. The Applicant proposes to include additional land area to the project site, demolition of two single-unit dwellings, and construction of two, two-story medical office buildings totaling 64,000 square feet in gross floor area. Due to these proposed changes compared with the approved project, an Addendum to the IS/MND was prepared pursuant to Section 15162 (Subsequent EIRs and Negative Declarations) and 15164 (Addendum to an EIR or Negative Declaration of the State CEQA Guidelines). The City retained Kimley-Horn and Associates to prepare the Addendum and a revised Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program ("MMRP") was also prepared, and all applicable mitigation measures from the previous MMRP were included. 3. On the basis of the entire environmental review record, the proposed project will not result in any new significant impacts that were not analyzed in the IS/MND, nor will the project cause a substantial increase in the severity of any previously identified environmental impacts. The potential impacts associated with this proposed project would either be the same or less than those described in the IS/MND. In addition, there are no substantial changes to the circumstances under which the proposed project would be undertaken that would result in new or more severe environmental impacts than previously addressed in the IS/MND, nor has any new information regarding the potential for new or more severe significant environmental impacts been identified. Therefore, in accordance with Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines, an Addendum to the previously adopted IS/MND is the appropriate environmental documentation for the proposed project. In taking action on any of the approvals for the proposed project, the Planning Commission considered the whole of the data presented in the IS/MND, as augmented by the Addendum, and the MMRP. 4. The Addendum to the IS/MND, including the MMRP, is hereby approved. The document and all material, which constitute the record upon which this decision was based, are on file with the Planning Division, City Hall,100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach, California.

That the proposed map and the design or improvements of the subdivision are consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan, and with applicable provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and this Subdivision Code. Facts in Support of Finding 1. The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the subject property as General Commercial Office (CO-G) with the maximum floor area to land area ratio ("FAR") of 0.50 (CO-G 0.50), which is intended to provide for administrative, professional, and medical offices with limited accessory retail and service uses. The proposed project is consistent with this designation as it is a medical office development with a 0.36 FAR. The subject property is located within the Business Park District of the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan Zoning District (SP-7 BP), which is intended to provide for the development and maintenance of professional and administrative offices, commercial uses, specific uses related to product development, and limited light industrial uses. Pursuant to Section 20.90.120 (Business Park District: SP-7, BP), medical office uses are a principal permitted use subject to the approval of a minor use permit. The Tentative Parcel Map application is requested for the resubdivision of four parcels into three parcels and for condominium purposes. Each building would be located on its own lot with the third lot as the remainder of the site including parking and landscaping. Parcel 1 is 11,159 square feet and contains Building 1, Parcel 2 is 23,106 square feet and contains Building 2, and Parcel A is 143,572 square feet.

That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements will not cause substantial environmental damage nor substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the decision-making body may nevertheless approve such a subdivision if an environmental impact report was prepared for the project and a finding was made pursuant to Section 21081 of the California Environmental Quality Act that specific economic, social, or other considerations make infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the environmental impact report. Facts in Support of Finding 1. The proposed project is not located near fish or wildlife habitat and the design of the subdivision will not cause substantial damage to habitat. An Addendum to the previous IS/MND has been prepared for the project consistent with the implementing regulations of CEQA. The Addendum concludes the project will have a less than significant impact to the environment with mitigation measures and does not identify any cumulative impacts. The site is developed in a highly urbanized area and no significant natural resources exist on the project site or in the area of the project site. Finding O. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems. Facts in Support of Finding 1. The proposed Parcel Map is for the resubdivision of the lots and for condominium purposes.

Public improvements will be required of the developer per Municipal Code Section 19.28.010 (General Improvement Requirements) and Section 66411 (Local agencies to regulate and control design of subdivisions) of the Subdivision Map Act. Furthermore, the proposed project conforms to all applicable City ordinances. 2. No evidence is known to exist that would indicate that the proposed development will generate any serious public health problems. All mitigation measures will be implemented as outlined in the Addendum to the previously adopted IS/MND to ensure the protection of the public health. Finding P. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision. In this connection, the decision-making body may approve a map if it finds that alternate easements, for access or for use, will be 07-22-2014 Planning Commission - February 19, 2015 Item No. 2a: Additional Materials Received Planning CdBinailssMe(Me:JlO frcN9.(PA2014-121 ) Page 12 of 18 provided and that these easements will be substantially equivalent to easements previously acquired by the public. This finding shall apply only to easements of record or to easements established by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and no authority is hereby granted to the City Council to determine that the public at large has acquired easements for access through or use of property within a subdivision. Facts in Support of Finding 1. The design of the development does not conflict with any easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed development as there are no public access easements that are located on the property. Sufficient site access is provided from the abutting public right-of-way (Birch Street) with the proposed parcel map. Finding Q. That, subject to the detailed provisions of Section 66474.4 of the Subdivision Map Act, if the land is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965 (Williamson Act), the resulting parcels following a subdivision of the land would not be too small to sustain their agricultural use or the subdivision will result in residential development incidental to the commercial agricultural use of the land. Facts in Support of Finding 1. The property is not subject to the Williamson Act. The subject property is not designated as an agricultural preserve and is less than 100 acres. Finding R. That, in the case of a "land project" as defined in Section 11000.5 of the California Business and Professions Code: (a) there is an adopted specific plan for the area to be included within the land project; and (b) the decision-making body finds that the proposed land project is consistent with the specific plan for the area. Facts in Support of Finding 1. California Business and Professions Code Section 11000.5 was repealed by the Legislature in 2006 via Assembly Bill 2711. However, the proposed subdivision is not a "land project," as defined in prior California Business and Professions Code Section 11000.5 because it does not consist of 50 or more parcels. Finding S. That solar access and passive heating and cooling design requirements have been satisfied in accordance with Sections 66473.1 and 66475.3 of the Subdivision Map Act. 07-22-2014 Planning Commission - February 19, 2015 Item No. 2a: Additional Materials Received Planning CcBinailssMe(Me:JlO frcN9.(PA2014-121 ) Page 13 of 18 Facts in Support of Finding 1. The proposed Parcel Map locates the buildings towards the middle of the property with 30 feet between the two buildings, which allows for future passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities. The proposed building height is 36 feet, which is compatible with other structures in the area. The proposed improvements are subject to Title 24 of the California Building Code that requires new construction to meet minimum heating and cooling efficiency standards based on location and climate. The Newport Beach Building Division enforces Title 24 compliance through the plan check and inspection process. Finding T. That the subdivision is consistent with Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act and Section 65584 of the California Government Code regarding the City's share of the regional housing need and that it balances the housing needs of the region against the public service needs of the City's residents and available fiscal and environmental resources. Facts in Support of Finding 1. The General Plan and Zoning Code designate the site for commercial uses. The proposed project does not create residential units; however, the project does generate jobs. The City's Housing Element addresses the regional housing needs to ensure that job and housing are balanced. Finding U. That the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into the existing sewer system will not result in a violation of existing requirements prescribed by the Regional Water Quality Control Board. Facts in Support of Finding 1. Wastewater discharge from the project into the existing sewer system has been designed to comply with the Regional Water Quality Control Board ("RWQCB") requirements. Finding V. For subdivisions lying partly or wholly within the Coastal Zone, that the subdivision conforms with the certified Local Coastal Program and, where applicable, with public access and recreation policies of Chapter Three of the Coastal Act. 07-22-2014 Planning Commission - February 19, 2015 Item No. 2a: Additional Materials Received Planning CcBinailssMe(Me: JI0 frcN9.(PA2014-121 ) Page 14 of 18 Facts in Support of Finding 1.
