SUNSET RIDGE
PARK IS OPEN
The dedication and opening of
Sunset Ridge Park occurred on
December 6th. The memory of our
own Louise Greeley was honored
with a butterfly garden. The city
has had to erect fences and tape to
prevent visitors from riding bicycles and/or entering the park from
the Crest property and to protect
the newly planted and seeded
areas. Please do not try to enter
from Crest property use the
walkway and stairs on Superior.
Perimeter owners have suffered
during the construction of the park
but their properties are selling for
over a million dollars!

The owner/developers of the Banning

Ranch property are still working with
the California Coastal Commission to
have their application for development

Newport Beach Police advise all residents

to lock doors, windows and cars and do not
keep valuables in vehicles. Crest residents
are urged to keep garage doors locked and
the door that allows entry from the garage
into the unit.

Trash pickup is Monday (or Tuesday if

Monday is a holiday).

Members of The Banning Ranch Conservancy continue to raise funds to purchase

the property for permanent public open
space while they further educate the public
on the environmental impacts of the
development.
The Newport Banning Ranch development will most likely be scheduled to go
before the Coastal Commission before the
end of the year.

PLEASE BE MINDFUL

MAGNIFICATION

magnified in the Crest because of the configuration of our complex. Our buildings
cause noise to echo and intensify in the
courts and in the streets. Please minimize
talking when arriving or leaving units and
keep music down and parties inside especially after 10 pm. Newport Beach City
ordinances prohibit EXCESSIVE NOISE
from any residence, inside or out on decks,
in the court or on the street AT ANY time
(24/7) which disturbs neighbors. City fines
can be assessed up to $1,000.

DISTURBING THE PEACE

IS PROHIBITED 24/7
