COUNCIL
FROM: YOLANTA SCHWARTZ, PLANNING DIRECTOR
THROUGH: ANTON DAHLERBRUCH, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 2007-13. RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING
COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING A
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO CONSTRUCT A AT AN EXISTING
SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE AT 22 SADDLEBACK ROAD, (LOT 15-
RH) IN ZONING CASE NO. 744, (STEINHAUER).
REOUEST AND RECOMMENDATION
1. It is recommended that the City Council receive and file this report or
provide other direction to staff.
2. The applicants request a Conditional Use Permit to construct an 800 square
foot guest house on a lot developed with a single family residence.
BACKGROUND
3. The Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 2007-13, which is attached,
on August 21, 2007 at the regular meeting granting approval in Zoning Case No.
744. The vote was 3-1-1. Commissioner Witte was absent and Commissioner Smith
abstained.
The resolution contains standard findings of fact and standard conditions as well as
a condition that the Planning Commission reviews any further development, which
would cause the building pad area to exceed 30% pad coverage.
4. Although the residential building pad is large (32,160 square feet), and the
coverage on the pad is 17.6%, the Planning Commission deemed such condition
necessary because the structures are concentrated at the rear portion of the
residential building pad, including the residence, giving the appearance of an
overbuilt rear yard.

5. The property is zoned RAS-1 and consists of 3.3 acres gross and 2.86 acres
(124,800 s.f.) net lot area for development purposes. The property has a 40-foot
frontage on Saddleback Road and it backs up to Palos Verdes Drive North.
6. The property is developed with 3,153 square foot residence with 200 square
feet covered porches, 784 square foot garage, 800 square foot swimming pool,
(currently under construction), pool equipment, service yard and 400 square foot
stable.
7. The proposed 800 square foot guest house is the maximum size permitted
under the City and Community Association's regulations for guest houses.
8. Adequate area is available by the existing 400 square foot stable to set aside
additional 50 square feet, should a new stable be constructed in the future. A corral
area is adjacent to the stable.
MUNICIPAL CODE COMPLIANCE
9. Pursuant to Section 17.16.040 of the Zoning Ordinance, a guest house requires
approval of a Conditional Use Permit. In acting to approve a conditional use permit,
the Commission must find that the project is consistent with the General Plan, is
compatible with surrounding land uses and meets the provisions and intent of the
Zoning Ordinance, Section 17.16.210(5):
a. All guest or servant quarters must be developed on the same
recorded lot as the main house.
b. The building housing the quarters shall not contain more than eight
hundred square feet of net floor area.
c. No kitchen or other cooking facilities shall be provided within
guest or servant quarters.
d. Guest house shall not be located in the front yard or any setback.
e. The property shall be developed and maintained in substantial
conformance with the approved site plan on file.
f. No vehicular access or paved parking area shall be developed
within fifty feet of the proposed guest house or servant quarters.
g. Occupancy of the proposed guest house or servant quarters shall be
limited to persons employed on the premises and their immediate family or by
the temporary guests of the occupants of the main residence. No guest may
remain in occupancy for more than thirty days in any six-month period.
h. Renting of guest houses or servant quarters is prohibited.
i. All requirements of this title must be complied with unless
otherwise set forth in the permit or approved plan.
j. A landscaping plan shall be submitted to the City of Rolling Hills
Planning Department staff for approval. The plan submitted must comply with the
purpose and intent of site plan review, as specified in Chapter 17.46 of this title.
The City also requires that a property with a guest house be developed with a 3-car
garage. The existing garage is 784 square feet, which is adequate to house 3 cars.
ZC NO. 744
Steinhauer
10. The structural lot coverage, including the 450 square foot stable, is proposed
to be 6,331 square feet or 5.1% of the net lot area, (20% permitted); and the total lot
coverage including the structures and paved areas is 20,330 square feet or 16.3% of
the total net lot area, (35% permitted).
11. There are two existing building pads on the property. The residential
building pad is 32,160 square feet, and has structural coverage of 5,681 square feet
or 17.6%. This coverage does not include the 200 square foot covered porch. The
stable pad is 6,560 square feet and will have coverage of 6.9%. The combined pads
total 38,720 square feet and will have 15.8% structural coverage.
12. Disturbed area of the lot is currently at 42,880 square feet or 34.4%, (40%
max. permitted). No additional disturbance or grading is necessary for the
construction of the proposed guest house.
13. It will be required that utility lines to the guest house be placed
underground.
ITEMS FOR COMMISSION'S CONSIDERATION
14. In making its determination the Planning Commission considered whether
the project is consistent with the General Plan, is compatible with surrounding
land uses, and meets the provisions and criteria for granting Conditional Use
Permit.
15. This project meets all of the development standards for lot coverage and
disturbance and for a guest house. Conditions must be specified in the resolution
of approval, if this project is approved, that the project conforms to the Zoning
Ordinance criteria as stated in paragraph 8 above.
16. One of the policies of the Land Use Element of the General Plan states that
City should "evaluate the City's lot coverage standards to assess their effectiveness
in providing for development which is compatible with adjacent uses". This is a
large parcel and the lot coverage in this instance is much below the maximum
allowed.
OTHER AGENCIES APPROVALS
17. The Rolling Hills Community Association will review this project for
architectural design at a later date.
18. The project has been determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
CONCLUSION
20. Conditionally permitted uses are uses that are not outright permitted by
the Rolling Hills Municipal Code. The Commission must consider applications
for conditional use permit and may, with such conditions as are deemed
necessary, approve a conditional use which will not jeopardize, adversely affect,

endanger or to otherwise constitute a menace to the public health, safety or
general welfare or be materially detrimental to the property of other persons
located in the vicinity of such use.
21. The proposed project meets all of the development standards of the
Zoning Regulations and has an adequate set aside area for a future stable, corral
and access. No grading or additional disturbance is necessary for this project.
Conditions are included in the resolution of approval that the project shall
conform to the Zoning Ordinance criteria as stated in paragraph 9 above.

terrain, and surrounding residences because the guest house complies with the low
profile residential development pattern of the community and is screened from

REOUEST AND RECOMMENDATION,
1. Request for a Conditional Use Permit to construct an 800 square foot guest
house on a lot developed with a single family residence.
2. It is recommended that the Planning Commission view the project, continue
the public hearing, take public testimony and consider the criteria for granting of
CUP.
BACKGROUND
3. At the June 19, 2007 public hearing, the Planning Commission scheduled a
site visit to view the project for today.
4. The property is zoned RAS-1 and consists of 3.3 acres gross and 2.86 acres
(124,800 s.f.) net lot area for development purposes. The property has a 40-foot
frontage on Saddleback Road and it backs up to Palos Verdes Drive North.
5. The property is developed with 3,153 square foot residence with 200 square
feet covered porches, 784 square foot garage, 800 square foot swimming pool,
(currently under construction), pool equipment, service yard and 400 square foot
stable.
6. The proposed 800 square foot guest house is the maximum size permitted
under the City and Community Association's regulations for guest houses.

7. Adequate area is available by the existing 400 square foot stable to set aside
additional 50 square feet, should a new stable be constructed in the future. A corral
area is adjacent to the stable.
MUNICIPAL CODE COMPLIANCE
8. Pursuant to Section 17.16.040 of the Zoning Ordinance, a guest house requires
approval of a Conditional Use Permit. In acting to approve a conditional use permit,
the Commission must find that the project is consistent with the General Plan, is
compatible with surrounding land uses and meets the provisions and intent of the
Zoning Ordinance, Section 17.16.210(5):
a. All guest or servant quarters must be developed on the same
recorded lot as the main house.
b. The building housing the quarters shall not contain more than eight
hundred square feet of net floor area.
c. No kitchen or other cooking facilities shall be provided within
guest or servant quarters.
d. Guest house shall not be located in the front yard or any setback.
e. The property shall be developed and maintained in substantial
conformance with the approved site plan on file.
f. No vehicular access or paved parking area shall be developed
within fifty feet of the proposed guest house or servant quarters.
g. Occupancy of the proposed guest house or servant quarters shall be
limited to persons employed on the premises and their immediate family or by
the temporary guests of the occupants of the main residence. No guest may
remain in occupancy for more than thirty days in any six-month period.
h. Renting of guest houses or servant quarters is prohibited.
i. All requirements of this title must be complied with unless
otherwise set forth in the permit or approved plan.
j. A landscaping plan shall be submitted to the City of Rolling Hills
Planning Department staff for approval. The plan submitted must comply with the
purpose and intent of site plan review, as specified in Chapter 17.46 of this title.
The City also requires that a property with a guest house be developed with a 3-car
garage. The existing garage is 784 square feet, which is adequate to house 3 cars.
9. The structural lot coverage, including the 450 square foot stable, is proposed
to be 6,331 square feet or 5.1% of the net lot area, (20% permitted); and the total lot
coverage including the structures and paved areas is 20,330 square feet or 16.3% of
the total net lot area, (35% permitted).
10. There are two existing building pads on the property. The residential
building pad is 32,160 square feet, and has structural coverage of 5,681 square feet
or 17.6%. This coverage does not include the 200 square foot covered porch. The
stable pad is 6,560 square feet and will have coverage of 6.9%. The combined pads
total 38,720 square feet and will have 15.8% structural coverage.
ZC NO. 744

11. Disturbed area of the lot is currently at 42,880 square feet or 34.4%, (40%
max. permitted). No additional disturbance or grading is necessary for the
construction of the proposed guest house.
12. It will be required that utility lines to the guest house be placed
underground.
ITEMS FOR COMMISSION'S CONSIDERATION
13. In making its determination the Planning Commission should consider
whether the project is consistent with the General Plan, is compatible with
surrounding land uses, and meets the provisions and criteria for granting
Conditional Use Permit.
14. This project meets all of the development standards for lot coverage and
disturbance and for a guest house. Conditions must be specified in the resolution
of approval, if this project is approved, that the project conforms to the Zoning
Ordinance criteria as stated in paragraph 8 above.
15. One of the policies of the Land Use Element of the General Plan states that
City should "evaluate the City's lot coverage standards to assess their effectiveness
in providing for development which is compatible with adjacent uses". This is a
large parcel and the lot coverage in this instance is much below the maximum
allowed.
OTHER AGENCIES APPROVALS
16. The Rolling Hills Community Association will review this project for
architectural design at a later date.
17. The project has been determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
CONCLUSION
18. Conditionally permitted uses are not outright permitted by the Rolling
Hills Municipal Code. The Commission must consider applications for
conditional use permit and may, with such conditions as are deemed necessary,
approve a conditional use which will not jeopardize, adversely affect, endanger
or to otherwise constitute a menace to the public health, safety or general welfare
or be materially detrimental to the property of other persons located in the
vicinity of such use.
19. The proposed project meets all of the development standards of the
Zoning Regulations and has an adequate set aside area for a future stable, corral
and access. No grading or additional disturbance is necessary for this project.
Conditions must be included in the resolution of approval, if this project is
approved, that the project shall conform to the Zoning Ordinance criteria as
stated in paragraph 8 above.
