The addition is being proposed to accommodate a new restaurant tenant and will increase the floor area available for seating, to provide additional storage and change the main entrance to the restaurant to front onto Newport Avenue. Based upon previous approvals for this property and existing parking conditions, the subject restaurant space would be permitted a maximum of 89 seats. The actual floor plan for tenant improvements will be reviewed by staff at building plan check to verify the seating count. The tenant space is part of the LaFayette Plaza shopping center located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Newport Avenue and Irvine Boulevard. The site is bounded by commercial development to the north, south, east and west. The subject tenant space is immediately adjacent to "Nieuport 17" restaurant. The center is located within the Town Center Redevelopment Project Area requiring final design review approval of the proposed site improvements by the Redevelopment Agency. The subject site is located within the C-2 - Central Commercial District zoning designation. The project has been designed in accordance with the listed development standards for the district. In addition, City Code Section 9271(u) requires a building line setback of 65 feet, measured from the centerline of Newport Avenue, which has been satisfied.
