DISCUSSION
Planning Commission
On July 22, 2010, the Planning Commission voted (4 ayes 3 nays) to recommend
approval of the proposed project to the City Council. (Refer to Attachment No. CC5 for
the Planning Commission Staff Report and Resolution.)
Project Setting
The subject property is Newport Commerce Plaza (NCP), which is located within the
Newport Place Planned Community (NPPC). NCP is bounded by Birch Street, Waverly
Place, Quail Street and Dove Street and encompasses 16.9 acres. The site is located
near John Wayne Airport.
Proiect Description
The applicant is requesting the following changes within the NPPC:
1) Change the land use designation from "Industrial Site No. 4" to "Office Site No.
9 ", which is consistent with the General Plan land use designation of General
Commercial Office (CO -G) (Attachment No. CC1 Exhibit "A" — Newport Place
Land Use Map and Text).
2) Change the parking requirement in NCP from one space per 250 square feet of
net public area to one space per 281 square feet of net public area for office uses
within NPC. (Refer to "Attachment No. CC2 — Site Plan" for proposed parking
layout)
3) Add a provision to the NPPC that requires Planning Director's review of the
proposed on -site parking plans in NPC.
Changes to the Newport Place Planned Community text (Attachment No. CC2) are
highlighted in gray, which include statistical data for land uses that coincide with the
request.
Background
In the early 1970's, Newport Commerce Plaza was built as a business park when the
General Plan Land Use Element designation for the site was Industrial. The
development included buildings designed for tenants with both industrial and office
components. The market demand for the industrial /research /storage component of the
tenant suites apparently never materialized. Parking spaces were added to the site
through the approval of modification permits so office uses could expand into areas
Newport Commerce Plaza

originally intended for non -office use. More information regarding the modification
permits is in Attachment No. CC3 — Background.
In 1988, the General Land Use Element for the site was changed to Administrative
Professional Financial (APF). Industrial uses within NCP became nonconforming. The
NPPC land use classification for NCP has not been updated to be consistent with the
General Plan update.
Currently, approximately half of the 18 buildings in NPC are vacant. The other half are
occupied by office uses with the exception of two industrial tenants.
General Plan
The Land Use Element of the 2006 General Plan (GP) designates the subject site as
General Commercial Office (CO -G), which is intended to provide for administrative,
professional, and medical offices with limited accessory retail and service uses. The
proposed land use designation of "office" within the NPPC would be consistent with the
CO -G designation in the GP. The two existing industrial uses within NCP are
nonconforming, and would be nonconforming under the NPPC land use classification as
well; however, these industrial uses would be eliminated over time when leases expire.
Parkin
The parking lot does not contain a sufficient number of parking spaces per the NPPC
requirements for all the buildings to be occupied with office uses. The applicant has
proposed to address this by changing the parking requirements for NCP from one space
per 250 square feet to one space per 281 square feet, which would allow all of the
buildings to be occupied with office uses.
The applicant also proposes to redesign the 867 -space parking lot in order to eliminate
all 206 compact -sized spaces and replace them standard -sized spaces, and change the
parking configuration in some areas. The result would be an increase of 40 parking
spaces (907 total). A provision would be added to the NPPC requiring Planning Director
review of the parking configuration to ensure compliance.
Staff supports the proposed parking requirement based on the studies by the Institute of
Transportation Engineers (ITE)t that suggest estimates of peak parking demands for
office parks (Attachment No. CC4 — ITE Parking Generation Study). Using the survey
data and equation given by ITE, a project site with 266,697 gross square feet would fall
within the 85th percentile for periods of peak demand if 918 parking spaces are
provided. The applicant proposes to provide 907 parking spaces, which is within the
range of the ITE 85th percentile estimation.

Traffic AnalVsis
The Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) requires that a traffic study be prepared if a
project generates more than 300 daily trips. Light Industrial land uses generate
approximately 6.97 daily trips per 1,000 square feet. Office land uses generate 11.01
daily trips per 1,000 square feet. The intensification from industrial land use to office
land use is approximately 4.04 daily trips per 1,000 square feet. Therefore,
approximately 74,260 square feet of industrial can be converted into office before a
project would hit the threshold of requiring a traffic study. The proposed intensification of
use is limited to the 12,700 square feet of industrial use that is being converted from
industrial to office. A traffic study is not required. Fair share fees will be assessed upon
the submittal of tenant improvement permits.
Summary
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt an ordinance that:
• Changes the land use classification of Newport Commerce Plaza in the Newport
Place Planned Community from `Industrial Site No. 4" to "Office Site No. 9"
• Changes the parking requirement for Newport Commerce Plaza to one space per
281 square feet.
• Adds a provision to the NPPC that requires Planning Director review of proposed
on -site parking plans for Newport Commerce Plaza.
ENVIRNOMENTAL REVIEW
The project is categorically exempt under Section 15305, of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines - Class 5 (Minor Alterations in Land Use
Limitations). The project is simply an administrative action for consistency between the
Zoning Code and General Plan land use designation.
PUBLIC NOTICE
Notice of this hearing was published in the Daily Pilot, mailed to property owners within
300 feet of the property, and posted at the site a minimum of ten days in advance of this
hearing, consistent with the Municipal Code. Additionally, the item appeared upon the
agenda for this meeting, which was posted at City Hall and on the City website.

BACKGROUND
Project Timeline Regarding Parking and Office Uses
In order to understand the situation at the subject property and the status of the project,
the timeline of City approvals is significant. The timeline and chart below shows how
parking spaces were added to accommodate office uses within the buildings at NPC.
1971 — Original Project Approval
Modification Permit No. 339 — Reduced the 30 -foot wide landscape belt
requirement adjacent to Birch Street to 10 feet, and utilized that 20 -foot portion,
not devoted to landscaping, for parking.
1972 — Off - Street Parking Requirement Adjustment Approval
Modification Permit No. 573 — Lowered the off - street parking requirement for
office use from one space per 225 square feet of net floor area to one space per
250 square feet of net floor area and added parking spaces, which created dead -
end drive aisles. The approval allowed more square feet within buildings to be
occupied as office uses.
1983 — Compact -Sized Parking Space Approval
Modification Permit No. 2839 — Introduced the allowance of 25 percent of the
parking spaces to be compact- sized. Again, as additional parking spaces were
permitted, more square feet within the buildings were allowed to be occupied as
office uses.

Transition from Industrial to Office Park
As part of a subdivision process in 2003, the applicant created parcels for the sale of
individual buildings. The applicant upgraded the project site to function as an office park
which included the following:
• Remodel of the exterior of the buildings by painting and adding new windows,
doors and mechanical screening on the roofs.
• New sign program.
• Improved disabled access.

Land Use. 701
Office Building
Land Use Description
ITE defines office uses in several categories. In reviewing the statistics for office parking demand, it was
found that five of the basic office land uses had virtually no difference in parking demand characteristics.
The following section merges these uses together for analysis purposes. Analysts should continue to
record the specific lTE land use category for data that they submit.
710: General Office Building —A general office building houses multiple tenants; it is a location where
affairs of businesses, commercial or industrial organizations, or professional persons or firms are
conducted. An office building or buildings may contain a mixture of tenants including professional
services; insurance companies; investment brokers; and tenant services, such as a bank or savings and
loan institution, a restaurant or cafeteria and service retail facilities. Corporate headquarters (Land Use
714), single tenant office building (Land Use 715), office park (Land Use 750) and research and
development center (Land Use 760) are related uses.
714: Corporate Headquarters Building —A corporate headquarters building is a single tenant office
building that houses the corporate headquarters of a company or organization, which generally consists
of offices, meeting rooms, space for file storage and data processing, a restaurant or cafeteria and other
service functions. General office building (Land Use 710), single tenant office building (Land Use 715),
office park (Land Use 750) and research and development center (Land Use 760) are related uses.
715: Single Tenant Office Building —A single tenant office building generally contains offices, meeting
rooms and space for file storage and data processing for a single business or company, and possibly
other service functions, including a restaurant or cafeteria. General office building (Land Use 710),
corporate headquarters building (Land Use 714), office park (Land Use 750) and research and
development center (Land Use 760) are related uses.
750: Office. Park —Office parks are usually suburban subdivisions or planned unit developments
containing general office buildings and support services, such as banks, restaurants and service stations,
arranged in a park- or campus -like atmosphere. General office building (Land Use 710), corporate
headquarters building (Land Use 714), single tenant office building (Land Use 715) and research and
development center (Land Use 760) are related uses.
760: Research and Development Center — Research and development centers are facilities or groups
of facilities devoted almost exclusively to research and development activities. The range of specific types
of businesses contained in this land use varies significantly. Research and development centers may
contain offices and light fabrication areas. General office building (Land Use 710), corporate
headquarters building (Land Use 714), single tenant office building (Land Use 715) and office park (Land
Use 750) are related uses.
Database Description
The database consisted of a mix of suburban and urban sites. Parking demand differed between the area
types for one independent variable (1,000 sq. ft. GFA) but not for another (employees). Therefore,
parking demand was analyzed separately for 1,000 sq. ft. and was combined for employees.
• Average parking supply ratios: 4.0 spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. GFA (84 study sites) and 1.1 spaces per
employee (48 study sites).
• Average employee density: 3.3 employees per 1,000 sq. ft. GFA (54 study sites). Employee densities
for corporate headquarter buildings and research and development centers tended to be slightly
lower than the average.

Perk7ea Generation, 3r6 Edition
The parking demand studies in the database for this land use were conducted from 1970 through 2001.
The following table summarizes the age of the data set and presents the average weekday peak period
parking demand ratio for each chronological time period. Suburban and urban sites are mixed in the table
data set. It is evident from the table that parking demand for this land use has not changed substantially
over time (in terms of vehicles per building square footage).
An examination of the day -of -week trends of parking demand for all study sites in this land use indicated
that weekday peak period parking demand tended to be at its highest for a site on a Friday. The next
highest weekday for parking demand was observed to be on a Tuesday.
Data were provided for a television station and office in a suburban location. Its peak period demand
appeared to differ from otheroffices in this land use and was therefore excluded from the database. The
site was 8,240 sq. ft. GFA and had 86 employees, with parking supply ratios of 6.8 spaces per 1,000 sq.
ft. GFA and 0.65 spaces per employee. Peak parking demand was counted for 12 consecutive hours
during two weekdays and the site's peak parking period was between 4:00 and 5:00 p.m. The peak
parking demand ratios were 8.25 vehicles per 1,000 sq. ft. GFA and 0.79 vehicles per employee.
Data were provided for a credit card processing office in a. suburban location. Its peak period demand
appeared to differ from other offices in this land use and was therefore excluded from the database. The
site was 73,300 sq. ft. GFA, with a parking supply ratio of 3.7 spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. GFA. Peak parking
demand was counted for 11 consecutive hours during two weekdays and the site's peak parking period
was between 9:00 and 10:00 a.m. The peak parking demand ratio was 5.57 vehicles per 1,000 sq, ft.
GFA.

171 Parking Generation, 31d Edition
Additional Data
Specific studies conducted in downtown areas documented parking ratios between 1.0 and 2.0
vehicles per 1,000 sq. ft. GFA in settings with priced parking and where high quality transit options
exist.'
A stud Y2 conducted by King County Metro in Seattle, WA indicated that approximately 6.5 percent of
the peak parking demand was generated by visitor parking. This study included visitor - parking
observations from 23 office buildings in both the morning and afternoon peak demand periods.

INTRODUCTION
Project Setting
The subject property is Newport Commerce Plaza (NCP), which is located within the
Newport Place Planned Community (NPPC). NCP is bound by Birch Street, Waverly
Place, Quail Street and Dove Street and encompasses 8.61 acres. The site is located
near John Wayne Airport.
Project Description
The applicant is requesting the following changes within the NPPC:
1) Change the land use designation from 'Industrial Site No. 4° to "Office Site No.
9 ", which is consistent with the General Plan land use designation of General
Commercial Office (CO -G) (Attachment No. PC2 — Newport Place Land Use Map
and Text).
2) Change the parking requirement in NCP from one space per 250 square feet of
net public area to one space per 281 square feet of net public area for office uses
within NPC.
3) Add a provision to the NPPC that requires Planning Director's review of the
proposed on -site parking plans in NPC.
Background
In the early 1970's, Newport Commerce. Plaza was built as a business park when the
General Plan Land Use Element designation for the site was Industrial. The
development included buildings designed for tenants with both industrial and office
components. The market demand for the industrial /research /storage component of the
tenant suites apparently never materialized. Parking spaces were added to the site
through the approval of modification permits so offices uses could expand into areas
originally intended for non - office use tenant spaces. More information regarding the
modification permits are in Attachment No. PC 4 — Background.
In 1988, the General Land Use Element for the site was changed to Administrative
Professional Financial (APF). Industrial uses within NCP became nonconforming. The
NPPC land use classification for NCP has not been updated to be consistent with the
General Plan update.
Currently, approximately half of the 18 buildings in NPC are vacant. The other half are
occupied by office uses with the exception of two industrial tenants.
S

General Plan
The Land Use Element of the 2006 General Plan (GP) designates the subject site as
General Commercial Office (CO -G), which is intended to provide for administrative,
professional, and medical offices with limited accessory retail and service uses. The
proposed land use.designation of "office" within the NPPC would be consistent with the
CO -G designation in the GP. The two existing industrial uses within NCP are
nonconforming, and would be nonconforming under the NPPC land use classification as
well; however, these industrial uses would be eliminated over time when leases expire.
Parking
The parking lot does not contain a sufficient number of parking spaces per the NPPC
requirements for all the buildings to be occupied with office uses. The applicant has
proposed to address this by changing the parking requirements for NCP from one space
per 250 square feet to one space per 281 square feet, which would allow all of the
buildings to be occupied with office uses.
The applicant also proposes to redesign the 867 -space parking lot in order to eliminate
all compact -sized spaces and replace them standard -sized spaces, and change the
parking configuration in some areas. The result would be an increase of 40 parking
spaces (907 total). A provision would be added to the NPPC requiring Planning Director
review of the parking configuration to ensure compliance.
Staff supports the proposed parking requirement based on the studies by the Institute of
Transportation Engineers (ITE)' that suggest estimates of peak parking demands for
office parks (Attachment No. PC 5 — ITE Parking Generation Study). Using the survey
data and equation given by ITE, a project site with 254,275 square feet would fall within
the 85th percentile for peak demand times if 875 parking spaces are provided. The
applicant proposes to provide 907 parking spaces, which exceeds the ITE 85th
percentile estimation.
Traffic Analysis
The Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) requires that a traffic study be conducted if a
project generates more than 300 daily trips. Light Industrial land uses generate
approximately 6.97 daily trips per 1,000 square feet. Office land uses generate 11.01
daily trips per 1,000 square feet. The intensification from industrial land use to office
land use is approximately 4.04 daily trips per 1,000 square feet. Therefore,
approximately 74,260 square feet of industrial can be converted into office before a
' McCourt, P.E., PTOE, Ransford S., Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) — Parking Generation 3b Edition, 2004.

project would hit the threshold of requiring a traffic study. The proposed intensification of
use is limited to the 12,700 square feet of industrial use that is being converted from
industrial to office. A traffic study is not required. Fair share fees will be assessed upon
the submittal of tenant improvement permits.
Summary
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend City Council adoption of
an ordinance that:
• Changes the land use classification of Newport Commerce Plaza in the Newport
Place Planned Community from "Industrial Site No. 4" to "Office Site No. 9"
• Changes the parking requirement for Newport Commerce Plaza to one space per
281 square feet.
Adds a provision to the NPPC that requires Planning Director review of proposed
on -site parking plans for Newport Commerce Plaza,
Alternative
Pursuant to the current parking requirement of one space per 250 square feet, the
existing parking lot only contains a sufficient number of parking spaces (867) for
216,750 square feet to be occupied with office use. Therefore, 37,525 square feet would
have to remain vacant or approximately three buildings would need to be demolished to
create more parking area if the parking requirement change is not approved.
Environmental Review
The project is categorically exempt under Section 15305, of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines - iClass 5 (Minor Alterations in Land Use
Limitations). The project is simply an administrative action for consistency between the
Zoning Code and General Plan land use designation.
Public Notice
Notice of this hearing was published in the Daily Pilot, mailed to property owners within
300 feet of the property, and posted at the site a minimum of ten days in advance of this
hearing, consistent with the Municipal Code. Additionally, the item appeared upon the
agenda for this meeting, which was posted at City Hall and on the City website.

Paa of e 2 2
SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS.
1. Code amendments are legislative acts. Neither the City nor State Planning Law set
forth any required findings for either approval or denial.of such amendments.
2. The institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE)1 that suggest estimates of peak parking
demands for office parks (Attachment No. PC 5 — ITE Parking Generation Study).
Using the survey data and equation given by ITE, a project site with 254,275 square
feet would fall within the 85th percentile for peak demand times if 875 parking spaces
are provided. The applicant proposes to provide 907 parking spaces, which exceeds
the ITE 85th percentile estimation.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
1. The Planning Commission hereby recommends City Council adoption of an ordinance
amending the Newport Place Planned Community development standards by changing
the land use designation of Industrial Site No. 4 to Office Site No. 9 and changing the on-
