Dear Ms. Tonsich: Thank you for speaking with me the other day regarding Poppy Trail lots, lots 7567-14- 16, 7567-14-15 and 7567-14-20, that are listed for sale in the Peninsula News and the Daily Breeze Home Guide. The ads describe the property as having a barn, riding ring, corrals and pastures. We appreciate your prompt response to our request for information. We would like to inform you that the City of Rolling Hills Planning Department's records indicate that an approval for a lot merger for lots 7567-14-15 and 7567-14-20 was approved in 1987, however the lot merger Certificate of Compliance has not been recorded. Therefore, these properties show up as two lots in the County Assessor's records. From speaking with the Rolling Hills Community Association Manager, we understand that there is an agreement between RHCA and Mr. Wolinski, who resides at 8 Reata and owns one of the lots for sale (7567-14-16), which allowed him to construct a stable on that lot. It appears that if these properties were to be sold as one property, before any application for construction of a residence on these lots is considered by the City, the lot lines would have to be adjusted through a process called "Lot Line Adjustment" and proof would have to be submitted to the City that a buildable pad of a minimum of 12,000 square feet for a residence is possible on this newly configured property. City's regulations stipulate that a stable, riding ring and other accessory structures and uses are allowed on a lot only in conjunction with a single family residence. Once the property sells and the stable, riding ring, corral and pastures are no longer under an agreement for the use bythe property owner at 8 Reata, it would be a violation of Section 17.16.030 Accessory Uses and Structures of the Municipal Code, if these facilities were to be rented out or used for commercial purposes. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me. Thank you for your cooperation.
