2. Appeal – 2888 Bay Shore Drive (Newport Marina Reconstruction)
Mr. Moriarty at 2782 Bay Shore Drive is appealing the Approval in Concept issued by the Harbor
Manager on April 6, 2016 for the proposed commercial marina (Newport Marina) reconstruction
project adjacent to his property located at 2888 Bay Shore, on the basis of potential impacts to
his water area near his slip.
Recommendation:
a) Uphold the Harbor Manager’s issuance of the Approval in Concept.
Commissioner Stapleton met with Mr. Moriarty to discuss the matter.
Commissioner Kenney met with Mr. Moriarty and his consultant. He could not make an informed decision
without an in-person visit.
Mr. Miller indicated the Harbor Commission must decide the space between the edge of the proposed
dock and the vessel and whether the space should be considered as a setback or a fairway. Mr. Miller
reviewed his reasoning for the decision.
The Commission and Mr. Miller discussed the fairway distance based on the longest finger on the
backside of the marina being 20 feet. The focus was on application of the Code rather than how people
moved in and out of a slip. Commissioner Girling inquired whether the Commission was required to rule
according to the Code or if the Commission had discretion to review the matter subjectively.
Mr. Maiorano reported the threshold question was whether the space was a fairway or a setback. If the
Commission determined it was a fairway, the Code required the Commission to follow the formula. If the
Commission determined it was a setback, then the Commission had discretion to determine the gap.
After further scrutiny, Mr. Miller had determined the space was a fairway rather than a setback. draft

Shawna Schaffner of CAA Planning and representing the appellant, requested the reconstructed marina
be set back consistent with City standards, whether a fairway or a setback, but at least 30 feet. Ms.
Schaffner reviewed her arguments against the Approval in Concept and Code provisions in support of her
arguments.
Commissioner Girling inquired about the distance of the fairway at the Irvine Company marina near the
subject marina. The distance was 46 feet from the end of the marina to the private dock and 31 feet from
the outside edge of the side-tied boat to the dock. Ms. Schaffner had referred to the 2008 Waterfront
Project Guidelines and Standards, Harbor Design Criteria as the "City standards."
Mr. Moriarty related experiences with boats colliding with his boat. He requested the Commission apply
the fairway standard of 30 feet with no side-tie.
A Commissioner asked if the Commission could prohibit side-ties. Mr. Maiorano clarified that the fairway
calculation yielded a minimum space, not the exact space. The issue of side-ties was not mentioned in
the Guidelines.
Pete Swift of Swift Slip Pier and Dock Builders and also representing the applicant, explained that there
would not be fingers, cleats, nor side-tying of boats in the channel. A 30-foot fairway would be three
times the width of the largest boat that could fit in the space.
Mike Hewitt, counsel for the applicant, reviewed the proposed configuration for the marina. Mr. Miller
correctly analyzed the space as a setback. The space was not a fairway under the Municipal Code or the
Harbor Design Criteria.
Commissioner Avery asked if the marina could be located further north. Mr. Hewitt replied no because of
easements. Ms. Schaffner disagreed.
Mr. Maiorano reported the Commission would determine whether the facts merited application of the
definition of a fairway. If not, then the setback would apply. Commissioner Kenney asked if the
Commission could determine the proper amount of setback after determining it was a setback. Mr.
Maiorano added that the Commission would determine also that it was not a fairway.
Jason Greyshock, Fishing Boats Unlimited, stated a more narrow space would be a safety issue.
Lieutenant Alsobrook indicated maneuvering through the marina was difficult. Harbor Patrol could not
dictate how a marina was built.
Commissioner Girling asked if the clearance of 29 feet stretched around the curve. Mr. Miller thought the
vessel would be in the way. Commissioner Girling wanted to know how the marina could be altered to
maintain the current clearance.
Commissioner Kenney was confused by the 22-foot distance in one of the exhibits. Mr. Miller explained
that number was based on an interpretation in a GIS setting. Commissioner Kenney inquired whether
Mr. Miller's number included the bowsprit on the boat at the end slip on the inside. Mr. Miller replied no.
Commissioner Kenney felt the slips in the back were very tight.
Commissioner Stapleton tended to support a setback situation. Commissioner Avery agreed the space
was close. A distance of only 10 feet was not safe. Commissioner West believed it was a setback
situation. Measurements should be taken from the property line. Commissioner Kenney concurred that it
was a setback issue. Commissioner Stapleton agreed. Chair Blank understood the Commission reached
a consensus that it was a setback condition.
Commissioner West moved, seconded by Commissioner Kenney, that the Commission find that the facts
presented to the Commission did not satisfy the definition of fairway in the Municipal Code. The motion
carried with 6 ayes and 0 no votes. draft

The setback from Mr. Moriarty's property line to the structure in the marina was 22 feet in one document
and 26 feet by the GIS calculation. Chair Blank understood the consensus was to measure the setback
from the property line.
Commissioner Avery suggested a compromise for a wider area that impacted the marina owner the least.
Chair Blank asked if Commissioner Avery meant the applicant, the appellant and Harbor Resources
should reach a compromise distance or the Commission should determine the distance. Harbor
Resources determined the number was 10. A Commissioner concurred with the parties reaching
agreement on the setback. If they could not, the item should return to the Commission who would decide.
Mr. Maiorano advised that the Commission's responsibility was to approve, reverse or modify the decision
of the Harbor Resources Manager. A Commissioner suggested retaining the existing 26 feet of setback
from the property line to the edge of the dock and not allowing side-ties to be placed at that end of the
dock. A Commissioner indicated any distance less than 26 feet would result in more collisions. Mr. Miller
noted the applicant calculated the current distance at 22 feet, while his calculated distance was 26 feet.
Chair Blank did not hear any Commission support for upholding the Approval in Concept. Mr. Maiorano
reported the Commission could reject or modify the Approval in Concept, both of which were final actions,
or continue the hearing to a date certain.
Commissioner West moved, seconded by Commissioner Avery, that the public hearing remain open and
the matter be continued to a date certain of August 10, 2016.
Ms. Schaffner requested the Commission maintain the existing setback of 26 feet on the east side and
45-50 feet on the west side.
Mr. Moriarty added that the proposed marina would eliminate the turning radius for boats.
Mr. Hewitt stated the 22 feet from the property line to that point was excessive. The applicant could build
a zero lot line and create an exit elsewhere.
Carter Ford suggested constructing a 3-foot wide float not connected to the marina but on marina
property with pilings to create a buffer float.
Mr. Greyshock clarified that the 26-foot distance was accurate. The 22-foot distance was measured to
the pulpit of the first boat. He recommended the distance be close to if not the 26-foot number and
eliminating the first finger as a fair compromise.
The motion carried with 6 aye, 0 no, and 0 abstaining votes.
3. 2016 Harbor Commission Narrated Harbor Tour – Ad Hoc Committee Formation
The Harbor Commission will form an ad hoc committee to plan a Commission narrated tour
around the harbor in late 2016. Preliminary ideas and details will be discussed along with a recap
of the 2014 event.
Recommendation:
a) Form an ad hoc committee to plan the tour details, and to report back to the Commission
at regular intervals. Discuss preliminary ideas and suggestions based on the 2014 event.
Chair Blank briefly reviewed the 2014 Harbor Commission tour.
Commissioner West moved, seconded by Commissioner Girling that the Commission establish a
subcommittee to develop a harbor tour and appoint a subcommittee comprised of Chair Blank,
Commissioner Stapleton, and Commissioner Kinney.
Carter Ford supported the Commission organizing the tour.
The motion carried with 6 aye, 0 no, and 0 abstaining votes. draft

Commissioners are present.
5. Mooring Management in Newport Harbor – Continued
This item is continued to the next Harbor Commission meeting when the four selected
Commissioners are present.
7) SUBCOMMITTEE REPORTS
Commissioner Kinney reported the subcommittee recommended the Harbor Patrol continue to request
permission to board vessels to inspect sewage holding tanks. The subcommittee did not support
amending the Municipal Code to allow for mandatory boarding of vessels.
Commissioner Kinney advised that the subcommittee for SUP safety hoped to provide possible
recommendations at the August meeting.
Vice Chair Stapleton indicated the subcommittee to ensure the long-term welfare of the Newport Harbor
was convening with Chamber of Commerce, Marine Committee Chairman Chandler Bell and David Beek
on August 2, 2016, to discuss the topic.
Commissioner Girling related that the Lower Castaways held one meeting and had another scheduled.
Commissioner West shared his experience at the anchorage over the July 4th weekend.
Chair Blank reminded Commissioners of the 50th Anniversary Governor's Cup at Balboa Yacht Club on
Saturday.
Mr. Miller would host a workshop geared towards consultants regarding the Regional General Permit
process. The fifth eelgrass survey of Newport Harbor was under way. Eelgrass on Balboa Island
surpassed the all-time high of 2003.
8) QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WITH COUNCIL LIAISON ON HARBOR RELATED ISSUES
None.
9) QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WITH HARBOR RESOURCES MANAGER ON HARBOR RELATED
ISSUES
None.
10) PUBLIC COMMENTS ON SUBCOMMITTEE REPORTS OR QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WITH

Cater Ford, Newport Mooring Association, reported permittees felt visiting boats should use moorings.
While vessels were completing paperwork for admittance to the harbor, the Harbor Patrol should board
the vessel and verify it had a functional holding tank.
Len Bose attended a meeting on oil spills, where the idea of a safety committee was discussed.

Chair indicated the August meeting would be held in Council Chambers. The Commission would
