CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item No. 18
June 8, 2010
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Planning Department
Kathlyn Bowden, AICP, Economic Development Coordinator
949 - 644 -3230, kbowden @newportbeachca.gov
SUBJECT: Newport Beach Farmers' Market License Agreement
ISSUE:
Should the City Council approve a License Agreement to allow a weekly Certified
Farmers' Market in Lido Marina Village, opening on June 20, 2010?
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the Newport Beach Farmers' Market License
Agreement between the City of Newport Beach and the Sprouts of Promise Foundation
( "Licensee "), allowing the Licensee the use of City property for a Certified Farmers'
Market for a period of one (1) year, and allowing the City Manager to renew the License
on an annual basis if he /she finds that the terms of the agreement have been met and
the operation of the Certified Farmers' Market is not causing any negative impact on
traffic circulation, parking, or surrounding properties and uses.
DISCUSSION:
Background:
City staff was approached by Davenport Properties, the property managers for Lido
Marina Village, and Mark Anderson of the Sprouts of Promise Foundation, the market
manager for the Playa Vista Farmers' Market, in April about the possibility of opening a
Certified Farmers' Market in the Village. As proposed, the market would be open
Sundays from 8:00 am until 2:00 pm each week, with the exception of the two (2)
Sundays per year when the Newport Boat Show and Lido Yacht Expo are scheduled to
occur. Both staff and Davenport Partners believe a weekly market will attract visitors to
Lido Marina Village and help to revitalize the area.

Analysis:
The proposed market would involve the closure of Via Oporto, from Central Avenue to
the private alley northwest of Via Lido. The proposed road closure, as demonstrated in
Exhibit A, has been approved by the Fire Department and Traffic Engineer. Visitor
parking will be accommodated with the private parking structure with access from
Central Avenue, as will the parking of smaller producer vehicles. Larger producer
vehicles will be accommodated through the use of seven (7) public parking spaces
located at the end of Central Avenue.
Staff contacted the Community of Playa Vista and the Los Angeles County Health
Department to understand their experience with the Playa Vista Farmers' Market. Both
entities stated that their experience with the Market during the past 1 '/ years has been
favorable. Mark Anderson, of the Sprouts of Promise Foundation, was selected as the
Playa Vista Farmers' Market operator by the master developer of the Playa Vista
Community after a thorough search and selection process. In addition to being the
market manager for the Playa Vista Farmers Market, Mr. Anderson has over 6 years of
experience as a farmer selling at markets throughout the Los Angeles area. Staff
believes that Mr. Anderson's experience as both a market manager and farmer brings a
unique and beneficial perspective to the proposed Lido Marina Village farmers' market,
and will be helpful in recruiting quality farmers to a market — which is one of the most
difficult tasks in the successful organization of a Certified Farmers' Market.
The Corona del Mar Farmers' Market has operated every Saturday morning since its
opening in 1996 in the municipal parking lots at Marguerite Avenue and Bayside Drive
in Corona del Mar. The City's experience with the Corona del Mar Farmers' Market
during the past fourteen years has been favorable. The market managers have abided
by their agreement, doing more than the minimum requirements to assure the success
of the market. As a result, the Corona del Mar community has continuously and
enthusiastically supported the market. Staff hopes that a farmers' market in the Lido
Marina Village area will build a similar reputation with the communities located on
Balboa Peninsula and Lido Isle.
SUMMARY:
Staff recommends the approval of the proposed one -year License Agreement as
provided in Attachment A. The new agreement would permit continued operation of the
market through May 31, 2010, with the exception of the two (2) Sundays per year when
the Newport Boat Show and Lido Yacht Expo are scheduled to occur. The proposed
License agreement allows the City Manager to renew this License on an annual basis if
he /she finds that the terms of the agreement have been met and the operation of the
Certified Farmers' Market is not causing any negative impact on traffic circulation,
parking, or surrounding properties and uses.

Environmental Review:
This action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act ( "CEQA ") pursuant
to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable
indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a
project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of
Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical
change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
Funding Availability:
No funding is necessary for the approval of this agreement. The license fee of $140 per
month recovers the public parking revenue that would be lost from the use of the seven
(7) spaces on Central Avenue during the event and minimal costs for providing the
required temporary "No Parking" signage that must be posted in conjunction with the
event.
