CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT IN ZONING CASE NO. 4G9. OWNERS: DR. AND MRS. ALFRED C. MARRONE ADDRESS: 13 & 17 SOUTHFIELD DRIVE (LOTS 10-SF, 11-A-SF, 11-B-SF, and 12-SF) BACKGROUND 1. The Planning Commission approved the subject Resolution on April 28, 1992. 2. The applicants are requesting that the lotline on the subject lots be adjusted in the manner shown on the attached plans in which Lot 1 would comprise 1.34 acres (1.00 acres net) and lot 2 would comprise 2.5 acres (2.10 acres net). 3. The lots slope at an average 11% slope from a height of 1,120 feet to 975 feet. 4. The applicants own both lots and choose to build their residence in the most favorable area of the newly created parcel that also conforms with the contours of the slope. 5. The proposed lot line adjustment. includes 10 foot easements at all side and rear lot lines and 30 foot easements at the front of the proposed lots at Southfield Drive. G. The Planning Commission considered Section 16.16.020 of the Subdivision section of the Municipal Code referring to Lot sideline angles which reads, "In all cases where practicable, the sidelines of lots shall be approximate right angles to or radial to the streetupon which such lot, fronts." 7. The Commission also considered Section 1.6.16.040.A of the Subdivision section of the Municipal Code which refers to Widths and depths of lots requirements, "The abutting footage of any lot: along the street easement line shall be at least equal to or greater than the depth of the lot divided by two and one-half; provided, that in no event shall such abutting footage be less RESOLUTION NO. 92-13 PAGE 2 than one hundred fifty feet." The abutting footage on Lot 2 is not less than 150 feet but, it is not equal to or greater than the depth of the lot divided by 2.5. 8. The adjustment of this lot line requires the removal and relocation of the existing stable for proposed Lot 1. which is currently Iocated on the shared lot line on proposed Lot 2. 9. The project has been determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council receive and file Resolution No. 92-1.3. RESOLUTION NO. 92-13 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF A CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT IN ZONING CASE NO. 469 THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS DOES HEREBY FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. An application was duly filed by Mr. and Mrs. Alfred C. Marrone with respect to real property located at 13 Southfield Drive (Lots 10-SF and 11B- SF) and real property in the vicinity of Southfield Drive (Lots 11A-SF and 12-SF) requesting a Certificate of Compliance for a Lot Line Adjustment to move the side lot line dividing these two parcels so that the northeasterly 'portions of existing Lots 10-SF, 11A-SF, 11B-SF, and 12-SF are placed into Parcel 1 and the 'southwesterly portions of existing Lots 10-SF, 11A-SF, 11B-SF, and 12-SF are placed into Parcel 2. Section 2. California Government Code Subsection 66412(d) authorizes minor lot line adjustments without requiring a tentative map, parcel map or final map if: A. The lot line adjustment involves two or more existing adjacent parcels, where land is proposed to be taken from one parcel and added to an adjacent parcel; B. A greater number of parcels than originally existed is not thereby created; C. The lot line adjustment will create parcels that conform to local zoning and building ordinances; and D. The lot line adjustment is approved by the City. Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the application on January 21, 1992 and February 18, 1992, and conducted a field site review on February 1, 1992. Section 4. The Planning Commission finds that the project is categorically exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to a Class 5 exemption provided by Section 15303 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Section 5. The Planning Commission has considered the evidence, both written and oral, presented to it in connection with this application and finds as follows: A. Section 16.16.010.B of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance requires that each lot in any subdivision in the RAS-1 zone shall have a net area of not less than forty-three thousand five hundred sixty square feet (1.0 acre). The proposed lot line adjustment will result in Parcel 1 to be one (1.0) net acre and Parcel 2 to be 2.10 net acres after excluding easements. RESOLUTION NO. 92-13 PAGE 2 B. Section 16.16.040 of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance requires that the abutting footage along the street easement line shall be at least equal to or greater than the depth of the lot divided by two and one-half; provided, that in no event shall such abutting footage be less than one hundred fifty feet. While the proposed adjustment does not comply with the provision that the frontage of the lot be equal to or greater than the depth of the lot divided by two and one-half, the adjustment will provide a 260-foot frontage for Parcel 1 along Southfield Drive and a 156-foot frontage for Parcel 2 along Southfield Drive which will change the frontage for each parcel but, not be less than the 150 foot minimum frontage along a maintained roadway for each lot. C. Section 16.16.020 of. the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance requires that in all cases where practicable, the sidelines of lots shall be at approximate right angles or radial to the street upon which such lot fronts. The proposed adjustment will result in Parcel 1 to be at right angles to the roadway and Parcel 2 to be at right angles to the roadway for 115.42 feet. D. The City's Sanitary Sewer Feasability Study,prepared by ASL Consulting Engineers on February 9, 1988, recommends the installation of future sewer lines to service the immediate vicinity to be constructed along the southeasterly property lines of Parcel 1 and Parcel 2. Based upon this Study and the need to provide for the future installation of sewers to serve the properties in the immediate vicinity of the subject property, conditions have been attached to require the applicant to record an easement to the Rolling Hills Community Association for ingress and egress purposes to construct underground utilities along the southeasterly property lines of Lot 1 and Lot 2, along the northeasterly boundary lines of Lot 1 and 2, along the boundary line between Lot 1 and Lot 2, along the northwesterly boundary line of Lot 2, and along the southwesterly boundary line of Lot 2. E. The proposed lot line adjustment will require the removal and relocation of the existing stable for Parcel 1 which, if not removed, would be located on the boundary line within the easement on proposed Parcel 2. F. Conditions have also been attached to this approval which provide that it will not impair or limit the City's application of the Site Plan Review Ordinance to any future development of Parcel 1 or Parcel 2. Section 6. In accordance with the foregoing findings, the lot line adjustment sought in Zoning Case No. 469 as indicated on the map attached hereto as Exhibit "A" is hereby approved subject to the following conditions: A. The applicant shall prepare and, upon approval and acceptance of the City, record concurrent with the Certificate of Lot Line Adjustment and easement in gross, in favor of the City of Rolling Hills (with the intention that the City convey it immediately to the Rolling Hills Community Association) for ingress, egress and the installation, maintenance, repair, replacement and removal of sewer lines and other underground utilities over that certain real property described as follows: (i) the southeasterly thirty (30) feet of Parcel 1 and 2 between the northerly and southerly lot lines, (ii) the northeasterly ten (10) feet of Parcel 1 and 2 between the easterly and westerly lot lines, (iii) ten (10) feet on either RESOLUTION NO. 92-13 PAGE 3 side of the boundary line between Parcel 1 and 2 between the northerly and southerly lot lines, (iv) the northwesterly ten (10) feet of Parcel 2 between the northerly and southerly lot lines, and (v) the southwesterly ten (10) feet of Parcel 2 between the northerly and southerly lot lines. The easement deed shall prohibit Grantor or successor to Grantor from constructing or erecting any improvements or altering the contours of the surface of the easement area other than installation of shallow rooted landscaping and necessary irrigation systems. The map attached to the Certificate of Compliance, referred hereto as Exhibit "A" shall delineate and note the easements specified in this paragraph. B. The lot line adjustment shall not in any way constitute any representation that Parcel No. 2 (Lot 2) is a buildable lot or that it is able to be developed in compliance with zoning and building ordinance standards. C. The lot line adjustment shall not in any respect limit or impair the City's application of the Site Plan Review Ordinance (Ordinance No. 221, 1988) to Parcels 1 and 2 (Lots 1 and 2) at such time as an application is made for development. D. The lot line adjustment shall not in any respect waive, release or be construed to supercede any restriction, dedication or condition set forth on Final Tract Map No. 30074, and all such matters are hereby reserved. E. The Certificate of Lot Line Adjustment shall not be issued until a legal description complying with the delineation of adjustment, and including, the required easements as specified in Paragraph A of Section 6 are submitted to, and approved by the City, attached hereto as Exhibit "A." F. The Certificate of Lot Line Adjustment shall not be issued until the existing stable structure located on the boundary line of proposed Parcel 2 is removed. Removal of such structure shall occur within twelve (12) months of the approval of this Resolution. G. The applicant shall execute an Affidavit of Acceptance of all conditions or this Lot Line Adjustment shall not be effective. PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 28TH DAY OF APRIL, 1992.
