Signature: Name of Notary: Date Commission Expires Commission No. r RESOLUTION NO. 2016-19 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING APPROVAL FOR A SITE PLAN REVIEW, CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND VARIANCE FOR GRADING AND CONSTRUCTION OF A STABLE WITH COVERED PORCHES, CORRAL, AND A RIDING RING, TO ENCROACH WITH THE RIDING RING INTO THE FRONT SETBACK, AND TO EXCEED THE PERMITTED DISTURBANCE OF THE LOT IN ZONING CASE NO. 904 AT 34 SADDLEBACK ROAD, (DELGADO). THE PLANNING COMMISSION DOES HEREBY FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. A revised application was duly filed by Ms. Eddy Delgado, to request a Site Plan Review, a Conditional Use Permit and Variances for a 1,140 square foot single story stable with 1,032 square feet of covered porches with 1,950 square foot adjacent corral, and 5,500 square foot riding ring, 400 cubic yards of grading for the ring, to encroach with the riding ring into the front setback by 2,150 square feet, and to exceed the already non -conforming disturbance of the net lot area to 68.8% (max. permitted disturbance is 40% and existing is at 63.3%). Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the application at their regular meeting on May 17, 2016, in the field and at their regular meeting on June 21, 2016, and again in the field and at their regular meeting on July 19, 2016. Neighbors within 1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearings and a notice was published in the Peninsula News on May 5, 2016 and in the Daily Breeze on July 8, 2016. The applicants and their agents were notified of the public hearings in writing by first class mail and the applicants and their agents were in attendance at the hearings. Evidence was heard and presented from all persons interested in affecting said proposal, and from members of the City staff. Three residents visited the site during the noticed field trip on June 21, 2016 and one resident on July 19, 2016. One resident attended the public hearing during the evening of July 19, 2016 to express her support for the project as it supports equestrian uses in the City. During the first field trip, Commissioners expressed concerns about the proposed stable and it's proximity to the guesthouse. The applicant's responded with a revised plan to relocate and reconfigure the stable and to request a 5,500 square foot riding ring that partially encroaches into the front setback. The Planning Commission has reviewed, analyzed and studied said proposal. Section 3. The property is zoned RAS-1 and the gross lot area is 2.71 acres. The net lot area is 2.32 acres or 101,040 square feet. The property is currently developed with a 3,420 square foot residence, a 640 square foot garage, a 780 square foot swimming pool/spa, 50 square foot pool equipment, 663 square foot guest house, 510 square feet of attached covered porches, 600 square feet of sheds (a 500 square foot Reso. 2016-19 1 34 Saddleback Rd. • • storage shed and a 100 square foot shed), and a 350 square foot service yard. A 959 square foot addition to the residence and a 35 square foot barbecue were approved administratively in October, 2015 and the addition is currently under construction. With the addition, the residence will be 4,379 square feet. All existing structures are legal and permitted. In 1989 a Conditional Use Permit was granted to convert the then existing stable into a guest house (Resolution 89-30) and area was set aside for the stable at that time adjacent to the 6,200 square foot riding ring that exists today. The existing 500 sq.ft. storage shed was approved and permitted in 1969 as a detached garage. Section 4. The PIanning Commission finds that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act, (CEQA) pursuant to section 15303 (new construction of single family residence and accessory structures), and section 15061(b)(3) (common sense exemption) of the CEQA guidelines. Section 5. Section 17.18.040E of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code permits approval of a stable over 200 square feet, a corral over 550 square feet, and a riding ring with a Conditional Use Permit provided the uses are not located in the front yard or in any setbacks. A portion of the riding ring is proposed to be located in the front yard area of the lot. With respect to this request for a Conditional Use Permit, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. 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. B. The granting of a Conditional Use Permit for the stable, corral, and riding ring would be consistent with the purposes and objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan because the uses are consistent with similar uses in the community, and except for the location of the riding ring, meet all the applicable code development standards for a stable, corral, and riding ring, and the proposed uses are located on areas on the property that are adequately sized to accommodate such uses. The proposed uses are appropriately located in that they will be sufficiently separated from nearby structures used for habitation or containing sleeping quarters. The development would be constructed in furtherance of the General Plan goal of promoting and encouraging equestrian uses. C. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent structures have been considered, and the project will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the proposed stable/corral, and riding ring orientation are not towards neighbors and their general location is of Reso. 2016-19 2 34 Saddleback Rd. sufficient distance from nearby residences so as to not impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors. The proposed stable is to be located next to the corral and a path designated for equestrian uses runs from the stable/corral to the driveway. The riding ring would be located in an area of the lot that is not in proximity to any residents. D. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain, and surrounding residences because the stable/corral, and riding ring complies with the low profile residential development pattern of the community and will not give the property an over -built look, and areas will remain open and unobstructed. The lot is 2.32 acres net in size and is sufficiently large to accommodate the proposed uses. E. The proposed conditional use, other than the riding ring being proposed in the front yard area, complies with all applicable development standards of the zone district and requires a Conditional Use Permit pursuant to Sections 17.18.090 and 17.18.100 of the Zoning Ordinance. F. The proposed conditional uses are consistent with the portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities because the project site is not listed on the current State of California Hazardous Waste and Substances Sites List. Section 6. Section 17.46.030 requires a development plan to be submitted for Site Plan Review and approval before any grading requiring a grading permit or any new building or structure may be constructed or any expansion, addition, alteration or repair to existing buildings may be made which involve changes to grading or an increase to the size of the building or structure by not more than 999 square feet in any thirty-six (36) month period. With respect to the Site Plan grading and the proposed structures the Planning Commission makes the following findings of fact: A. The proposed development is compatible with the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance and surrounding uses because the proposed structures comply with the General Plan requirement of low profile, low -density residential development with sufficient open space between surrounding structures and maintaining sufficient setbacks to provide buffers between residential uses. Although the disturbed area exceeds the maximum permitted amount of 40%, it was already legal non -conforming at 63.3% and it will increase to 68.8%. The configuration of the lot is narrow and long and a horse trail is located on the rear portion of the lot, accessible by the public with the property owner's consent, making this portion of the lot unusable by the property owner. The stable, corral, and riding ring promote the rural, equestrian aesthetic of Rolling Hills. While 2,150 square feet of the riding ring is in the front setback, the equestrian use is promoted in the City. Reso. 2016-19 3 34 Saddleback Rd. The project conforms with Zoning Code lot coverage requirements, except for disturbance. The net lot area of the lot is 101,040 square feet. The structural net lot coverage is proposed at 10.07%, which includes all of the structures, with allowance for permitted deductions, (20% max. permitted); and the total lot coverage proposed, including the stable would be 23.4%, (35% max. permitted). The disturbed area of the lot is proposed to increase from 63.3% which already exceeds the maximum permitted of 40% and is legal nonconforming, to 68.8% due to the 400 cubic yards of grading required for the riding ring (200 cubic yards of cut and 200 cubic yards of fill). B. The project substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage. The topography and the configuration of the lot, have been considered, and it was determined that the proposed development will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to adjacent uses, buildings, or structures, because the proposed stable/corral will be constructed entirely on an existing building pad of the currently developed lot where the corral currently is and will be the least intrusive to surrounding properties, will be screened and landscaped with trees and shrubs, is of sufficient distance from nearby residences so that it will not impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors, and will permit the owners to enjoy their property without deleterious infringement on the rights of surrounding property owners. The stable, corral, and riding ring will be developed on areas of the lot that do not currently have structures. C. The proposed development, as conditioned, is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, and is consistent with the scale of the neighborhood when compared to other equestrian uses in the vicinity of said lot. The proposed stable is 1,140 square feet and the average size of the last 15 stables approved since 2011 is 1,583 square feet. D. The development plan will introduce additional landscaping, which is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community. E. The proposed development is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenience and safety of circulation, for pedestrians and vehicles because the applicants will continue to utilize the existing driveway to the residence and the stable, and the riding ring will be accessed from the main driveway for heavier vehicles ingress/egress. The stable access from the driveway will be entirely decomposed granite. F. The project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to section 15303 of the CEQA guidelines. Section 7. Sections 17.38.010 through 17.38.050 of the Code permit approval of a variance from the standards and requirements of the Zoning Ordinance when, due to exceptional or extraordinary circumstances applicable to the property and not applicable to other similar properties in the same zone, strict application of the Code would deny the property owner substantial property rights enjoyed by other properties in the same Reso. 2016-19 4 34 Saddleback Rd. vicinity and zone. The applicant seeks a variance from the requirement 17.18.100.3. that a riding ring not be located in the front yard, and from 17.16.070B. that disturbance is limited to 40% of the net lot area. The 5,500 square foot riding ring is being proposed in the front yard, 2,150 square feet is in the front setback and the disturbance of the lot will be 68.8%. With respect to this request for Variances, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. There are exceptional and extraordinary circumstances and conditions applicable to the property or to the intended use that do not apply generally to the other property or class of use in the same zone because a horse trail used by the public crosses the rear of property making a portion of the lot unusable by the property owner. The disturbance of the lot already exceeds the maximum permitted and in order to locate the riding ring it is necessary to slightly grade an area that is currently undulated. This will cause the disturbed area to increase to 68.8%. B. The Variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right possessed by other property in the same vicinity and zone, but which is denied to the property in question because of the long and narrow lot, and Saddleback Trail being located on the rear of the property. The residential building pad is largely developed already, and there is no other option for locating the riding ring other than the front yard area. There were no concerns voiced by neighbors about where the proposed stable/corral and riding ring will be located. The exceedance of the disturbance is due to the riding ring. C. The granting of the Variance would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such vicinity and zone in which the property is located because the proposed riding ring enhances the equestrian aesthetic and therefore would not affect property values. The riding ring will remain as open space, therefore not causing the lot to be overdeveloped. D. The variance is consistent with the portions of the County of Los Angeles Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. E. The variance request is consistent with the General Plan. The proposed project, together with the variance, will be compatible with the objectives, policies, general land uses and programs specified in the General Plan and will uphold the City's goals to protect and promote construction that is rural in nature. Section 8. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning Commission hereby approves Zoning Case No. 904 a Site Plan Review, Conditional Use Permits and Variances to construct a 1,140 square foot single story stable with 1,032 square feet of covered porches with 1,950 square foot adjacent corral, and 5,500 square feet riding ring, 400 cubic yards of grading for the ring (200 cubic yards of cut and 200 cubic yards of fill), to encroach with the riding ring into the front setback by 2,150 square feet, and to exceed Reso. 2016-19 5 34 Saddleback Rd. the already non -conforming disturbance of the net lot area to 68.8% (max. permitted disturbance is 40% and existing is at 63.3%) subject to the following conditions: A.
