RESIDENTIAL DESIGN STANDARDS
COMMUNITY MEETING
The City of Newport Beach Community Development Department will be hosting a
community meeting regarding proposed changes to residential design standards
intended to minimize bulk and mass associated with current residential
development trends. Specifically, three separate amendments are proposed:
1. Third Floor Massing- Establish limitations regulating covered roof deck areas
and redefining the definition of gross floor area to include unfinished attics
with a ceiling height of 6 feet or greater.
2. Single-Unit and Two-Unit Developments in the Multiple Residential Zoning
District- Restrict single-unit and two-unit dwellings developed on lots zoned
for Multiple Residential (RM) to the development standards applicable to the
standards of the Two-Unit Residential (R-2) Zoning District.
3. Cottage Preservation- Provide an incentive to preserve small cottages while
allowing additions and alterations thereby discouraging full redevelopment
of property.
MEETING INFORMATION:
DATE: Monday, August 19, 2019
TIME: 4:00 p.m.
LOCATION: Civic Center Community Room
100 Civic Center Drive
Newport Beach, CA 92660
