CALIFORNIA ENYIRONHENTAL QUALITY ACT
RECO~RENDED ACTION:
Approve the design review for the remodel of the restaurant at 13444 Newport
Avenue by the adoption of Resolution No. RDA 86-8.
PRO&ECT ANALYSIS:
The Community Development Department has completed a review of the site plan and
elevations for the proposed remodel of the restaurant formerly known as
"Arthur's". According to the redevelopment plan for the "Town Center Area" the
final design plans are subject to review and approval of the Redevelopment
Agency.
This restaurant was also named and known as "The Aspen Mining Company" and
"Green Leafs". During the middle 1970's the service station was removed from
the corner parcel and a parking lot was stripped in without benefit of a permit.
The new restaurant owner is now requesting authorization to remodel the interior
and exterior of the restaurant as well as the parking lot.
The proposed site plan shows 49 parking spaces provided with adequate parking
available for this 7,200 square foot building. The new owner is proposing a
1,600 square foot retail shop which would require 8 parking spaces (1 per 200
square feet). That would leave 41 spaces for the new China Palace Restaurant
which would convert into 123 fixed seats. This proposed site plan now meets
code requirements for parking, landscaping around the building and in the
parking lot areas.
