South Coast Shipyard and Design Center

The application is a request to permit the approval of a Use Permit (UP2001-38). Site Plan Review (SR2001-004), and Coastal Development Permit for the proposed mixed-use development of residential and commercial uses on the South Coast Shipyard property. The 2.4 acre project site is located at 2300 Newport Boulevard and is currently developed with 44,300 square feet of commercial, office and marine industrial uses, including a shipyard, two boat slipways, office buildings, retail shops, and associated parking. The proposed project consists of a mixed-use development with 30,000 square feet of commercial uses and 28 residential units. The project will require the demolition of existing buildings on the site (except for a 14,000 square foot building facing Newport Boulevard). The project also includes replacement of the existing bulkhead (along approximately 485 feet of waterfront), reconfiguration of the 19-boat slip marina located in front of the project site, and closure of two existing boat slipways used for boat access and boat berthing. The project proposal includes a partial subterranean garage. The construction of the garage will require excavation of earth material. The project also includes site remediation in relation to contaminants (located in sediment near and within the boat bays) associated with the historical use of the shipyard property.
