Community development director Seimone Jurjis said the block grant program was intended to be used for prevention of COVID-19 and support of those affected by the coronavirus.

Plans for a mixed-use project proposed for Mariners Mile are hitting the brakes at least until May, so city staff can return before the Newport Beach City Council with answers to questions about parking requirements, density bonuses and compliance of the overall project with the city’s general plan.
The proposed project initially received approval by the Planning Commission in February, but was pulled for further consideration by Mayor Brad Avery in March after Avery said he heard from residents that said they were concerned about the possible impacts of the project, which is one of several major developments expected to come down the line for the 1.3-mile stretch of Pacific Coast Highway.
