Legal Description |
Lot 45, Tract
14070 and a Portion of Lot H , Tract 14070 |
On January 14, 2008,
the Zoning Administrator approved the application request to combine a lot and a portion of an adjacent lot into
a single parcel of land for single-family development. The
property is located in the PC (Newport Coast Planned Community)
District. The Zoning Administrator’s approval is based on the following
findings and subject to the following conditions. |
FINDINGS
1.
In approving this lot line adjustment
through a Modification Permit, the Zoning Administrator finds that the
establishment, maintenance or operation of the use of the property or building will
not, under the circumstances of this particular case, be detrimental to the
health, safety, peace, comfort and general welfare of persons residing or
working in the neighborhood of such proposed use or be detrimental or injurious
to property and improvements in the neighborhood or general welfare of the
City. Furthermore the proposed lot line adjustment, as approved, is consistent
with the legislative intent of Title 19 and Title 20 of the Newport Beach
Municipal Code based on the following reasons:
·
The proposal is consistent with the
General Plan and the Local Coastal Land Use Plan since the lots are for
single-family development, a permitted use in this area.
·
The project is categorically exempt
from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act under class
15 (Minor Land Divisions) and Class 5 (Minor Alterations in Land Use
Limitations).
·
The general exception to the Class
exemptions is not applicable in this case, since no significant environmental
effects will result from this project because the traffic and parking impacts
will not change from that which would result from the use of the original
subdivision.
2.
The Zoning Administrator also makes
the following Specific Findings:
·
The proposed lot line adjustment will
move the interior lot line between two legal lots.
·
Land taken from Lot H, Tract 14070
will be added to Parcel 1 of NBLLA2007-015 and no additional parcels will
result from the lot line adjustment.
·
The project will not result in a
change in land use or density since no additional lots are created and the
single-family residential use will be maintained. The proposed lot width and
lot size are consistent with the zoning requirements of Title 20 of the Newport
Beach Municipal Code and the Newport Coast Planned Community District regulations.
3.
The lot line adjustment, in and of
itself, will not result in the need for additional improvements and/or
facilities because public improvements and infrastructure currently exist
within the neighborhood.
