COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
In the Matter of the Application
of
Fritz Egger
Lot 43-SF
ZONING CASE NO. 128
FINDINGS AND REPORT
The application of Mr. Fritz Egger, Lot 43-SF, Southfield Tract,
for a variance of Side Yard Requirements under Article III, Section
3.07 of Ordinance No. 33 came on for hearing on the 21st day of
August, 1973 in the Council Chambers of the Administration Building,
2 Portuguese Bend Road, Rolling Hills, California, and the applicant,
having submitted evidence in support of the application, the Planning
Commission, being advised, now makes its Findings and Report as
required by the Ordinances of the City of Rolling Hills, California.
I.
The Commission finds that the applicant, Mr. Fritz Egger, is
the owner of that certain real property described as Lot 43-SF,
Southfield Tract, located in the City of Rolling Hills, California,
and that notice of the public hearing in connection with said appli-
cation was given as required by Sections 8.06 and 8.07 of Ordinance
No. 33 of the City of Rolling Hills, California.
II.
The Commission finds, further, that no communication, written
or oral, had been received in opposition to the request, and that
Mr. Chester Noble, 6 Ringbit Road East and Dr. Richard Small,
5 Flying Mane Lane, had reviewed the plans and stated that they
had no objection to the pool in the proposed location. Further,
Mr. James Millhauser, 2 Ringbit Road East, said he concurred that
the site chosen is the ideal location, since the pool would be 23 feet
from his residence, and screened by a row of evergreens; however, Mr.
Millhauser requested that the pool company be required to post a bond
guaranteeing completion, because of soil conditions in the area, and
as protection for his property.
The Commission further finds that the applicant requests the
variance to permit construction of a swimming pool in the side yard,
occupying 19', leaving one foot of side yard and a ten foot easement
between the side property line and the outer edge of the pool. Further,
the applicant stated that when he purchased the home he was given a
plot plan showing the future location of the pool, and it was his
understanding that the location of the pool had been approved at
the time the

yard should be granted in order to preserve substantial property rights
possessed by other property in the same vicinity and zone.
IV.
From the foregoing it is concluded that a variance of Side Yard
Requirements under Article III, Section 3.07 of Ordinance No. 33
should be granted by the Planning Commission of the City of Rolling
Hills to Mr. Fritz Egger, Lot 43-SF, Southfield Tract, in accordance
with the plot plan marked Exhibit I on file in these proceedings, and
it is, therefore, so ordered.
