NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on Thursday, June 09, 2022, at 6:30 p.m. or soon thereafter as the matter shall be heard, a public hearing will be conducted in the Council Chambers at 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach. The Planning Commission of the City of Newport Beach will consider the following application:
Herring Residence Variance - In order to accommodate the addition of a roof structure over an
existing outdoor kitchen area on the third floor deck of a single-family residence, the Applicant requests a variance from the additional step back requirements for third floor covered decks as described in Newport Beach Municipal Code (NBMC) Section 20.48.180 (Residential Development Standards and Design Criteria). Due to the substandard lot size, the proposed roof structure provides a step back of one foot and 6 inches from the front setback line (16 feet 6 inches from the front property line), where NBMC Section 20.48.180 requires third floor covered deck area to be stepped back a minimum of fifteen (15) feet from the front setback line (25 feet from the front property line).
The project is categorically exempt under Section 15301 - Class 1 (Existing Facilities) of the State CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act) Guidelines.
