Resolution 2022-06 was approved on May 17, 2022, and the Applicants submitted a time extension request on May 17, 2024. The Applicants are requesting a two-year extension be granted due to additional time needed to complete the review and plan check process with Los Angeles County agencies. Requirements for Extension The Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC) provides for the extension of approvals by no more than two years. (See RHMC Sections 17.46.080, 17.42.070, 17.38.070). While no specific findings are required for extensions of conditional use permits (17.42.070) or variances (17.38.070), the Planning Commission must make specific findings for two-year extensions of site plans (17.46.080). To extend a site plan, the Planning Commission must find that the expiration of the site plan would constitute undue hardship on the owner and the extension would not be materially detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of the public. Staff has determined that expiration of the site plan would impose undue hardship on the owner because the delays have been due in part to the COVID pandemic and other circumstances beyond their control, like long processing times at LA County. Staff has also determined that there are no changed circumstances on the property or adjacent properties such that extension would be to the material detriment of the public. Thus, Staff is recommending that 16 the Planning Commission adopt these findings and approve the attached resolution to grant these extensions. Modification to the Project The applicants have submitted a revised plan which downsizes the project (see Attachment 3). The revised plan is currently under review and only includes an 867-square-foot master bedroom expansion and an enclosed covered porch. The modification is considered minor and can be processed administratively. FISCAL IMPACT: None. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Planning Commission consider a request to adopt Resolution No. 2024-__ granting a two-year extension to commence construction of this project (see Attachment 2). If granted, the project would expire on May 17, 2026.

An application was duly filed by Dan and Joy Burgoyne ("Applicants"), with respect to real property located at 16 Southfield Drive requesting a two- year time extension to comply with the requirements of Resolution No. 2022-06 to commence construction of the approved project. Section 2. The Commission approved the project adopting Resolution No. 2022-06 at a meeting on May 17, 2022. The Applicants are requesting a two-year extension be granted due to additional time needed to complete the review and plan check process. Section 3. The Planning Commission finds that pursuant to Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC) Section 17.46.080 the expiration would constitute an undue hardship upon the property owner; and the continuation of the approval would not be materially detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of the public. The expiration would constitute undue hardship on the owner because of unforeseen delays outside of the control of the Applicants. Continuation of the approval will not be materially detrimental to the public because there have been no material changes or conditions on the subject property which would require allowing the approvals to expire. Section 4. Based upon information and evidence submitted, the Planning Commission grants a two-year time extension and does hereby amend Paragraph A of Section 8 of Planning Commission Resolution No. 2022-06, dated May 17, 2022, to read as follows: A. The Site Plan Review and Variance approvals shall expire within four years from the effective date of approval of Resolution No. 2022-06. No further extension shall be granted as required by Sections 17.46.080 and 17.38.070 of the RHMC. Section 5. Except as herein amended, the provisions and conditions of Resolution No. 2022-06 shall continue to be in full force and effect. 30 2 Resolution No. 2024-__ 16 Southfield Drive PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 18TH DAY OF JUNE 2024. ______________________________ BRAD CHELF, CHAIRMAN ATTEST: _____________________________ CHRISTIAN HORVATH, CITY CLERK 31 3 Resolution No. 2024-__ 16 Southfield Drive STATE OF CALIFORNIA ) COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES ) §§ CITY OF ROLLING HILLS ) I certify that the foregoing Resolution No. 2024-__ entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING A TWO-YEAR TIME EXTENSION FOR PREVIOUSLY APPROVED ZONING CASE NO. 22-20 FOR A SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR CONSTRUCTION OF A 1,583-SQUARE-FOOT ADDITION AND REMODEL TO AN EXISTING RESIDENCE, MAXIMUM FIVE-FOOT-HIGH RETAINING WALL, POOL/SPA IN EXCESS OF 800 SQUARE FEET, GRADING, AND OTHER IMPROVEMENTS; AND VARIANCES TO CONSTRUCT IN THE FRONT YARD SETBACK AND FOR A FIVE-FOOT-HIGH RETAINING WALL TO BE CONSTRUCTED IN THE FRONT AND SIDE SETBACK AREA FOR A PROPERTY LOCATED AT 16 SOUTHFIELD DRIVE, ROLLING HILLS, CA 90274, AND FINDING THE PROJECT CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (LOT 33-SF) (BURGOYNE) was approved and adopted at a regular meeting of the Planning Commission on June 18, 2024 by the following roll call vote: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: ABSTAIN: and in compliance with the laws of California was posted at the following: Administrative Offices ________________________________ CHRISTIAN HORVATH CITY CLERK 32 33 34 Agenda Item No.: 9.A Mtg.

The plans indicated a height 35 of 15 feet from existing grade at the highest point and showed Coast Live Oak Trees (these can grow up to 80 feet tall) to be planted. This would negatively impact the line of site from the Crest Road East. The Commission required that the proposed mound be staked and silhouetted. The residents at 17 Crest Road East expressed concerns with privacy and the proximity of the proposed barn. The walkway that extends out from the basement and the portion of the basement under the covered patio that is not under the footprint of the residence. The discrepancies with the grading calculations, application, and plans. Mixed-Use Structure/Stable located in the front yard. The guest house proximity to the canyon. Retaining walls along the stable. Floor level above the grade/raised decks – various sections of the residence, guest house, stable, and guest house show raised decks. Trellis calculations need to be added to the calculations (415 square feet (SF)) This item was presented to the Planning Commission for a second time on April 16, 2024. That morning, the Planning Commission held a public meeting field trip at the site. Commissioners, staff, and attendees viewed the silhouettes of the proposed project. The project was presented later at the evening Planning Commission meeting at 6:30 p.m. The Planning Commissioners voted 4-0 (1 Commissioner was absent) to continue the item to the next meeting. The Planning Commission directed staff to work with the applicant to revise the plans to address the following: The basement projection from the main residence; The exit from the basement; The proposed mount height at 1330' elevation which must be lowered; Privacy; and View blockage issues. Zoning, Location, and Lot Description The property is zoned RAS-2 and the gross lot area is 7.05 acres or 307,098 SF. The net lot area for development purposes is 6.02 acres or 262,368 SF. The lot is currently undeveloped and vacant. The lot is irregularly shaped and has a depth of approximately 820 feet and a width of approximately 480 feet. The property slopes downward from Crest Road East to the rear of the property. The grade elevation between the proposed main building pad and the street is approximately 42 feet. The lot is located in the southern portion of the City and has views of the Pacific Ocean. A natural drainage course is located along the western portion of the lot and a blue line stream, which is a part of the Klondike Canyon System, is located approximately 200 feet south of the southern property line of the lot. The lot is also located in proximity to the Geotechnical Hazardous area of the City, known as the Flying Triangle. The existing topography of the project site slopes down approximately 115-feet from Crest Road East to the lowest portion of the lot. DISCUSSION: Project Revisions 36 Since the April 16th meeting, the applicants have revised the plans to address the concerns of the Planning Commission. The following changes were made: Main House • Building footprint moved 9’-5” north and 3’-5” west. • Southwestern building corner from property line is 57-9” (Previously 65’-9”). • East wing of building rotated clockwise 5 degrees. • Pool deck area reduced to 1,100 SF (Previously 1,500 SF). • All basement area under covered porch has been removed. • Basement area reduced to 7,428 SF (Previously 7,610 sf). Guest House • Building footprint rotated counterclockwise 12 degrees. • Southeastern building corner from property line is 55’-1” (Previously 51’-3”). Civil • Total grading reduced to 28,389 cubic yards (CY) (Previously 28,725 CY). • Total structure reduced to 18,583 SF (Previously 18,872 SF). • Total disturbed area reduced to 87,770 SF (Previously 87,920 SF). • Total flatwork reduced to 18,385 SF (Previous 18,715 SF). • Primary driveway reduced to 13,480 SF (Previously 16,100 SF). • Paved walks and patio areas reduced to 2,445 SF (Previously 4,010 SF). Site Mound height lowered to 1330’ elevation (Previously 1335’). Issues The Planning Commission should consider the following outstanding issues: The mound at the center of the oval driveway has been lowered by 5 feet, but new trees atop the mound can grow up to 20 feet in height. Paul Huh and Jane Huh, residents directly across the street and uphill at 20 Crest Road East, expressed concerns with view obstructions. The walkway (tunnel) that extends out from the basement and the portion of the basement under the covered patio still daylights out. Charlie Raine, resident at 4 Pinto Road, came to City Hall expressing concerns about drainage. Site Plan Review Per Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC) Section 17.46.020.A.1, a Site Plan Review (SPR) is required for the construction of any new buildings or structures that require any grading that is not exempt. The applicants are requesting a Site Plan Review for the construction of the project on a vacant lot. Since the April 16th meeting, the applicant has revised the Site Plan Review as follows: 14,680 SF Single-Family Residence (Main Residence) Previous 13,680 SF (-1,000 SF) 1,000 SF Garage (attached) Same 1,225 SF Stable & 5,190 SF Corral (Discussed under the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and under Variance) 37 Same 7,849 SF Basement Previous 8,240 SF (-1391 SF) Retaining Walls to exceed a height of 3 Feet (Maximum 5 Feet) Same 28,389 CY Non-Exempt Grading Previous 28,725 CY (-336 CY) The only Building Pad that changed was 1st Pad 32,610 SF (-1,050 SF) No changes to 2 nd Pad (1,610 SF) and 3 rd Pad (2,900 SF) 25,343 SF mound in the center of the oval driveway, the total fill was reduced from 11,405 CY to 9,337 CY (-2,068 CY) 65,000 SF Landscaping Previous 58,050 SF (-6,950 SF) Native Plants & Tree Species Same 3,000 SF Native Pollinator Meadow in the center of the mound 4,000 SF Previous Grading The revised grading was changed to 28,389 CY from 28,725 CY. The revised grading export has increased to 9,715 CY (3,131 CY exempt & 6,584 CY non-exempt). The previous grading export was 5,915 CY (3,160 CY exempt and 2,755 CY non-exempt) as defined by Code. A Site Plan Review is required for the non-exempt grading and a Variance is required for non- exempt export. Conditional Use Permit Per RHMC Section 17.80.050, a conditional use permit (CUP) is required for stable greater than 200 SF and a corral that is greater than 550 SF. The proposed 1,225 SF stable exceeds the 200 SF limit by 775 SF. The stable has not changed in this project. Per RHMC Section 17.16.210, a CUP is also required to construct a guest house. The new proposal for the guest house has been changed to 600 SF, which was reduced from 540 SF. The guest house will not encroach into any required setbacks and was moved away from the top of the canyon. As per the RHMC Section 17.16.210, a CUP is required for an accessory structure that exceeds 200 SF. The project includes a detached 415 SF trellis at the bottom of the canyon. There are also two existing trails that lead down to the new trellis. The existing trails are currently overgrown and not accessible. The applicant is proposing to redesign and cut the overgrown vegetation the pathways for the new trellis. There are no changes to the trellis. Variances The Rolling Hills Municipal Code requires a Variance application and approvals for the following: 1. Stable, corral, swimming pool, and retaining walls to encroach into the front yard; 38 2. Corral to encroach into the required 50-foot front setback; 3. Retaining walls that exceed the maximum average height of two-and-one-half feet; 4. Decks/patios that exceed more than one foot above grade; and 5. Grading export. Traffic Commission Review of Driveway There are not any changes to the driveway. The proposed driveway connects to Crest Road East and has a driveway apron of 62-feet 5-inches wide. The driveway entrance will be 26 feet wide and connects to an oval-shaped driveway that will be 15 feet wide. The oval-shaped driveway connects to the barn, ADU, and main residence. Existing eucalyptus trees along Crest Road East will remain. The proposed driveway apron was reviewed and approved by the Traffic Commission on December 11, 2023. The City Council makes the final decision on the Traffic Commission’s recommendations. Municipal Code Compliance Revised Project Lot and Building Pad Coverage The net lot area is 262,368 SF. See Attachment 2 for more details. R E V I S E D : The revised structural coverage is as follows: the total proposed structural coverage is 18,970 SF or 7.23% which is well below the 20% maximum (with deductions). The proposed flatwork coverage is 18,715 SF or 7.13% which is below the 15% maximum. The total proposed structural and flatwork coverage for the entire lot with deductions is 36,590 SF or 13.95% which is well below the 35% maximum. The project complies with all of the development standards in the RHMC. Pad 1: Main Residence – will be developed with a 33,660 SF building pad area with a total of 17,410 SF or 51.72% building pad coverage. This exceeds the maximum 30% guideline by 21.44%. PREVIOUS: The previous structural coverage was as follows: the total proposed structural coverage was 17,802 SF or 6.79% which is well below the 20% maximum (with deductions). The proposed flatwork coverage was 18,715 SF or 7.13% which was below the 15% maximum. The total proposed structural and flatwork coverage for the entire lot with deductions was 37,587 SF or 14.33% which was well below the 35% maximum. REVISED: Pad 1 : Main Residence – will be developed with a 32,610 SF building pad area with a total of 17,799 SF or 54.58% building pad coverage. This exceeds the maximum 30% guideline by 24.58%. PREVIOUS: Pad 1: Main Residence – will be developed with a 33,660 SF building pad area with a total of 17,410 SF or 51.72% building pad coverage. This exceeds the maximum 30% guideline by 21.44%. REVISED: Pad 2: ADU Pad – will be developed with a 1,610 SF building pad area with a total of 700 SF or 43.48% building pad coverage. This exceeds the maximum 30% guideline by 10.5%. 39 PREVIOUS: Pad 2: ADU Pad – will be developed with a 1,610-square-foot building pad area with a total of 652-sqaure-feet or 40.50% building pad coverage. This exceeds the maximum 30% guideline by 13.48%. NO CHANGES: Pad 3: Stable Pad – will be developed with a 2,900-square-foot building pad area with a total of 1,225-square-feet or 46.21% building pad coverage. This exceeds the maximum 30% guideline by 26.21%. Disturbance REVISED: The total disturbed area for the lot will be 87,770-square feet or 33.45% of the lot (40% maximum permitted). The previous proposed disturbed area was 87,920-square feet or 33.51% of the lot (40% maximum permitted). This is less -150 SF and less -0.06%. PREVIOUS: The total disturbed area for the lot will be 87,920 SF or 33.51.24% of the lot (40% maximum permitted). The previous proposed disturbed area was 92,460 SF or 35.24% of the lot (40% maximum permitted). This is less -4,540 SF and less -1.73%. Stable/Corral There are no changes to the proposed stable located in the front yard. The project proposes a 1,225 SF one-story stable with 2 stalls, tack room/office, 2 bathrooms, tack workspace, feed/counter space, and large agricultural space with a garage accessible from the circular driveway. The ridgeline of the new stable is 13.9 feet maximum height. The stable is accessible from a driveway that is connected off of the northwest portion of the oval-shaped driveway. The previous proposed stable was 1,940 SF one-story stable, this is less -715 SF. Site Access There are no changes to the new driveway apron will be located Crest Road East on the northeast side of the lot, and will provide access to the oval driveway. The driveway will be 15 feet wide leading to a stable storage garage, motor court, main entry to the house, and garage. The proposed continuous driveway allows for the simplest path between all structures, with a garage in the main residence accommodating 4 vehicles, suitable per RH guidelines for the main house, guest house and ADU parking requirements. The center of the oval driveway will be landscaped with native trees, native plants, native pollinator meadow, and 110 SF water feature. An entry gate with pilasters will be located at the driveway entrance. Walls There are no changes to the walls. The RHMC Section 17.16.190(F), requires a Site Plan review for any walls that exceed 3 feet high. Such walls require a variance if located in the front yard. The project proposes 6 wall sections (A, B, C, D, E, & F). Wall A is located at the east wing of the main residence and connects to the guest house, this wall has a maximum height of 2.5 feet high with a 2.5\-foot-high average height. Wall B is a 3-foot-high retaining wall located at the west wing of the main residence along the swimming pool. Wall C is located along the south portion of the mound and extends along the south portion of the driveway with an maximum height of 5 feet high with an average height of 4 feet high (Wall C requires a Variance). 40 Wall D is located on the west portion of the mound and west portion of the driveway the maximum height is 5 feet high with an average height of 4.1 feet high (Wall D requires a Variance). Wall E located along the southern portion of the driveway is maximum 2.5 feet high with average height of 2.1 feet high. Wall F is located just north of the stable walkway, and the maximum height is 3 feet high with an average of 2.4 feet high. Landscaping The revised project proposes 65,000 square feet of landscaping and the previous project proposed 58,050 square feet of new native landscape area and 3,000 square feet of a native pollinator meadow area with a water feature. The project proposes 7 Lyonothamnus Floribundus trees that will grow up to a maximum height of 20 feet and maximum width of 12 feet wide. The previous proposal included Coast Live Oak Trees which can grow up to 80 feet tall in the mound. See Attachment 6 for the landscape review. Building Height and Pad Elevations (Pads 1 - 3) There are no changes, the new residence, basement, and attached garage will be developed on the lower southern portion of Pad 1 with a maximum ridge height of 12 feet 9 inches; the ridgeline of these structures will be about 31 feet below Crest Road East. The maximum height of the chimneys are 19 feet 2 inches. The main residence includes eaves that will extend a maximum of 8 feet. The basement and atrium are located at the V section of the main residence under the proposed deck. The elevations on Page A201 of the plans show that there is a 5-foot maximum retaining wall just above the finished grade. The guest house will be 13 feet and 2 inches in height; the ridgeline of the structure will be about 31 feet below Crest Road East. The front upper east portion of the lot (Pad 2) will consist of a corral and stable. The stable and will be 13-feet and 9-inches in height; the ridgeline of the structures will be about 5 feet below Crest Road East. The accessory dwelling unit (ADU) (Pad 3) will be 11 feet and 9 inches in height; the ridgeline of the structure will be about 5 feet below Crest Road East. Drainage A natural drainage course is located along the western portion of the lot and a blue line stream, which is a part of the Klondike Canyon System, is located approximately 200-feet south of the southern property line of the lot. The lot is also located in proximity to the Geotechnical Hazardous area of the City, known as the Flying Triangle; however, no part of the lot is within the Flying Triangle. This project is subject to the Low Impact Development (LID) requirements pertaining to stormwater management, including provisions for retention of run-off on the property. LID is plan checked by Building Services after entitlements are granted by the City. The proposed storage system is designed to store the difference in stormwater runoff volume between the pre- and post-development conditions. The design proposes two separate drainage systems, splitting runoff between the two adjacent watercourses, to mimic the existing flow patterns. 41 Included in each system is a Contech Urbangreen SRPE cistern system, at the main residence pad, to intercept and store runoff as follows: 1. The eastern system will collect runoff from the ADU, easterly driveway, easterly half of the residence and residential pad, and guest house. 2. The western system will collect runoff from the stable/corral, westerly driveway, westerly half of the residence and residential pad, and pool area. 3. Each system: a. Will first pass runoff through a Contech inline CDS pre-treatment system, to remove trash, debris and suspended solids. Runoff will then enter the storage barrels. b. Downstream of the storage barrel will be a second manhole with a pump, supplying the irrigation system. Runoff impounded in the storage tanks will be used to irrigate the site after the storm has passed. c. Above the soffit of the storage barrel, an overflow pipe will direct runoff exceeding the storage capacity and discharge to the watercourse below through an erosion control outlet structure. Utility Lines / Septic Tank All utility lines for the development will be required to be placed underground. The Los Angeles County Public Health department will review the septic system (location to be determined). Rolling Hills Community Association Review Rolling Hills Community Association will review this project at a later date. Public Participation On May 6, 2024 Mr. Paul Huh and Jane Huh, the residents at 20 Crest Road East, came into the City to review the project and express their concerns regarding the any view obstructions at 23 Crest Road East. Mr. Paul Huh sent an email to staff on May 21, 2024 opposing any obstructions above the Crest Road East ocean view. See Attachment 5. On June 10, 2024, Mr. Charlie Raine, the resident at 4 Pinto Road, came into the City to review the drainage plans for 23 Crest Road East. He expressed his concerns regarding the capacity of cisterns, impermeable & permeable surfaces, excess water flowing into the canyon, future storm drain pipe that the applicant can tie into, and storm drain plans. Environmental Review The project has been determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Class 3, Section 15303. New construction of a single-family residence and accessory structures. SITE PLAN REVIEW CRITERIA Section 17.46.010 Purpose. The site plan review process is established to provide discretionary review of certain development projects in the City for the purposes of ensuring that the proposed project is consistent with the City's General Plan; incorporates environmentally and aesthetically 42 sensitive grading practices; preserves existing mature vegetation; is compatible and consistent with the scale, massing and development pattern in the immediate project vicinity; and otherwise preserves and protects the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Rolling Hills. Section 17.46.50 Required findings. The Commission shall be required to make findings in acting to approve, conditionally approve, or deny a site plan review. No project which requires site plan review approval shall be approved by the Commission, or by the City Council on appeal, unless the following findings can be made: 1. The project complies with and is consistent with the goals and policies of the general plan and all requirements of the zoning ordinance; the project substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage. Lot coverage requirements are regarded as maximums, and the actual amount of lot coverage permitted depends upon the existing buildable area of the lot; 2. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences; 3. The project preserves and integrates into the site design, to the greatest extent possible, existing topographic features of the site, including surrounding native vegetation, mature trees, drainage courses and land forms (such as hillsides and knolls); 4. Grading has been designed to follow natural contours of the site and to minimize the amount of grading required to create the building area; 5. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, unless such flow is redirected into an existing drainage course; 6. The project preserves surrounding native vegetation and mature trees and supplements these elements with drought-tolerant landscaping which is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community, and landscaping provides a buffer or transition area between private and public areas; 7. The project is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenient and safe movement of pedestrians and vehicles; and 8. The project conforms to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT CRITERIA Section 17.42.50 Basis for approval or denial of conditional use permit. The Commission (and Council on appeal), in acting to approve a conditional use permit application, may impose conditions as are reasonably necessary to ensure the project is consistent with the General Plan, compatible with surrounding land use, and meets the provisions and intent of this title. In making such a determination, the hearing body shall find that the proposed use is in general accord with the following principles and standards: 1. That the proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan; 2. That the nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures have been considered, and that the use will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, building or structures; 3. That the site for the proposed conditional use is of adequate size and shape to accommodate the use and buildings proposed; 4. That the proposed conditional use complies with all applicable development standards of the zone district; 43 5. That the proposed use is consistent with the portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities; 6. That the proposed conditional use observes the spirit and intent of this title. CRITERIA FOR VARIANCE Section 17.38.050 Required findings. In granting a variance, the Commission (and Council on appeal) must make the following findings: 1. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same vicinity and zone; 2. That such variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights possessed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone but which is denied the property in question; 3. That the granting of such variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity; 4. That in granting the variance, the spirit and intent of this title will be observed; 5. That the variance does not grant special privilege to the applicant; 6. That 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; and 7. That the variance request is consistent with the general plan of the City of Rolling Hills. FISCAL IMPACT: None.

On June 2, 2023, application was filed by the applicant, Frank Escher of Escher, Gune, Wardena Architecture on behalf of the property owner Yuki Ogasawara, to request approval to construct on the vacant lot at 23 Crest Road East. The proposed project under Zoning Case (ZC) No. 23-070 includes a new 14,680-square-foot (SF) single-family residence with a 7,849 SF basement, 1,000 SF attached garage, 1,225 SF stable, 5,190 SF corral, 652 SF accessory dwelling unit (ADU), 600 SF guest house, 280 SF swimming pool, 155 pool equipment, 480 square feet of attached covered porches, service yard, lightwells, maximum five- foot-high retaining walls, walkways, native landscaping, and other improvements. There is a proposed 13,480-square-foot oval driveway with access to the residence, ADU, and stable. Section 2. The property is zoned RAS-2 and the gross lot area is 7.05 acres or 307,098 square feet. The net lot area for development purposes is 6.02 acres or 262,368 square feet. The lot is currently undeveloped and vacant. The lot is irregularly shaped and has a depth of approximately 820 feet and a width of approximately 480 feet. The property slopes downward from Crest Road East to the rear of the property. The grade elevation between the proposed main building pad and the street is approximately 42 feet. The lot is located in the southern portion of the City, and has views of the Pacific Ocean. A natural drainage course is located along the western portion of the lot and a blue line stream, which is a part of the Klondike Canyon System, is located approximately 200 feet south of the southern property line of the lot. The lot is also located in proximity to the Geotechnical Hazardous area of the City, known as the Flying Triangle. 48 2 Resolution No. 2024-06 23 Crest Road East (Ogasawara) Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the application at its morning field trip meeting and regular meeting for the first time on January 16, 2024. Neighbors within a 1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearings and a notice was published in the Daily Breeze on January 5, 2024. The applicant and owner were notified of the public hearings and were in attendance at the hearings. Evidence was heard and presented from all persons interested in affecting said proposal. The Planning Commission opened the meeting, took public testimony, and continued the public hearing to a later date. The Planning Commission directed staff to work with the applicant on revising the plans to address the issues. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the application at its morning field trip meeting and regular meeting for a second time on April 16, 2024. Neighbors within a 1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearings and a notice was published in the Daily Breeze on April 5, 2024. The applicant and owner were notified of the public hearings and were in attendance at the hearings. Evidence was heard and presented from all persons interested in affecting said proposal. The Planning Commission opened the meeting, took public testimony, and continued the public hearing to a later date. The Planning Commission directed staff to work with the applicant on revising the plans to address the issues. Subsequently, the applicant revised the Project, and it was brought back to the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the application at its field trip meeting and regular meeting for a third time on June 18, 2024. Neighbors within a 1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearings and a notice was published in the Daily Breeze on April 8, 2024. The applicant was notified of the public hearings and was in attendance at the hearings. Evidence was heard and presented at the public hearings from all persons interested in affecting said proposal. Section 4. On February 13, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 1202 approving Zoning Case (ZC) No. 902 for construction of an 11,500-square-foot new single- family residence with an 11,500-square-foot basement and appurtenances. On December 12, 2018, the Planning Commission granted a two-year time extension for ZC No. 902 to January 23, 2021. Due to COVID-19 entitlements were placed on hold and Assembly Bill 1561 created an automatic time extension. As such, the expiration date for ZC No. 902 was extended to July 22, 2022, but the permit was not used and expired. On November 9, 2021, an application was received for development of a new 8,460- square-foot residence, basement, accessory dwelling unit (ADU), guest house, stable, swimming pool, spa, and other improvements (ZC No. 21-11). On March 15, 2022, the Planning Commission conducted a field trip and evening meeting and continued the item to April 19, 2022. However, before the April 19, 2022 meeting could take place, the applicant requested the item be pulled because the property had been sold and there was no interest in moving forward with the project as proposed. As such, the item did not return to the Planning Commission and ZC No. 21-11 was closed. Thus, the project was never approved. 49 3 Resolution No. 2024-06 23 Crest Road East (Ogasawara) On December 11, 2023, the Traffic Commission reviewed the proposed driveway and apron located on Crest Road East under the current application (ZC No. 23-070). The Traffic Commission approved the new driveway and apron. Section 5. The Project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines pursuant to Section 15303, Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), which exempts the construction and location of a limited number of new, small facilities or structures, including accessory structures, including but not limited to garages, carports, patios, swimming pools and fences. Here, the proposed Project includes development on a vacant lot for a new single-family residence, basement, attached garage, driveway, stable, swimming pool, ADU, guesthouse, trellis, walls, hardscape, landscape, and other residential improvements. Accordingly, the Project qualifies for the exemption pursuant to Section 15303. Further, no exceptions to the exemption apply; there is no reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. The lot is vacant, and it is one of the last undeveloped lots in the neighborhood. Section 6. Site Plan Review. Site Plan Review is required for construction of any new building or structure pursuant to Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC) Section 17.46.020(A). The Project is for Site Plan Review (SPR) to develop a vacant lot including non-exempt grading and the construction of a new single-family residence, basement, attached garage, retaining walls to exceed a height of 3 feet (up to a maximum of 5 feet), oval driveway with portions that exceed a width of 20 feet, and other improvements. With respect to the Site Plan Review for the development, the Planning Commission hereby makes the following findings: A. The Project complies with and is consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan and all requirements of the zoning ordinance. The proposed development is compatible with the General Plan and Zoning ordinance. The proposed structures comply with the General Plan requirement of low profile, low-density residential development with sufficient open space between surrounding structures. The Project maintains the maximum possible distances from adjacent neighbors. The main residence has been integrated into the existing slope to minimize grading and land disturbance by constructing a long and narrow V-shaped floor plan that closely follows the existing topography, which will reduce the visual impact from neighboring properties. The Project complies with all of the City of Rolling Hills Development standards with the exception of requiring Variances for the structures to encroach into the front yard. The Project conforms to Zoning Code lot coverage requirements. The net lot area of the lot is 262,368 square feet (6.02 acres) per RHMC Section 17.16.060(A). The structural net lot coverage is proposed at 18,970 square feet or 7.23% (20% max. permitted) excluding exempt structures; and the total lot coverage proposed, including flatwork, would be 37,770 square feet or 14.40% (35% max. permitted). The disturbed area is 87,770 square feet or 33.45% (40% max permitted). B. The project substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage. Lot coverage requirements are regarded as 50 4 Resolution No. 2024-06 23 Crest Road East (Ogasawara) maximums, and the actual amount of lot coverage permitted depends upon the existing buildable area of the lot. The topography and the configuration of the lot have been considered, and the project will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to adjacent uses, buildings, or structures; the project will be built on new building pads which enables project elements to be the least intrusive to surrounding properties. Further, the project will be a sufficient distance from nearby residences so views and privacy of surrounding neighbors will not be impacted. The main house is sited to minimize grading and minimize impact on the site below the 1293-foot contour line that defines both the Finished Floor level and the precise orientation of the wings of the house. The landscape below this line will not experience any site disturbance and will be utilized to seed and reestablish a pallet of native species back into the landscape above the house. The Project includes three new building pads: Pad #1 is for the main residence for a total of 32,610 SF; Pad #2 is for the ADU for a total of 1,610 SF; and Pad #3 is for the stable for a total of 2,900 SF. C. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences. 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 new residences in the vicinity of said lot. The proposed site plan is harmonious with the site conditions of the existing lot and neighboring lots. The integration of the into the slope following the topography enables the residence to be largely hidden from view from the street and neighboring residences, maximizing the distance between the main house and the street. The slopes being created have been rounded and it was attempted to mimic the existing natural slopes in the area. D. The project preserves and integrates into the site design, to the greatest extent possible, existing topographic features of the site, including surrounding native vegetation, mature trees, drainage courses and land forms (such as hillsides and knolls). There will be no significant changes to the overall drainage features on the lot. There will be minimal impact to site design, vegetation, and mature trees. The property will be landscaped in accordance with the approved landscape plan. E. Grading has been designed to follow natural contours of the site and to minimize the amount of grading required to create the building area. The total proposed grading for the Project is 28,389 Cubic Yards (19,052 CY of cut and 9,337 CY of fill). The excavation for the basement 3,026 CY and pool 105 CY are exempt, the Site Plan Review is for the non-exempt grading total 25,247 CY. The Grading will be balanced on site with exception to 6,584 CY of non-exempt export. The project has been designed to follow natural contours of the site and minimize grading. F. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, unless such flow is redirected into an existing drainage course. 51 5 Resolution No. 2024-06 23 Crest Road East (Ogasawara) Grading will be balanced on site with exception to 9,715 cubic yards of export (3,131 CY exempt and 6,584 CY non-exempt). Grading has been minimized by integrating the main residence into the natural slope. The width of the main residence is limited to 25 feet, and the result is a long and narrow ranch house rambling along the 1293-foot contour line. The main residence is centered on its site so that runoff is not increased within existing drainage courses on either side of the lot. Control of water collected by impervious surfaces will utilize large cisterns to collect and redistribute storm-water in a controlled manner that does not alter drainage courses or runoff loads from the undeveloped state of the lot. G. The project preserves surrounding native vegetation and mature trees and supplements these elements with drought-tolerant landscaping which is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community, and landscaping provides a buffer or transition area between private and public areas. Surrounding native vegetation and mature trees will not be affected or will be replaced. New vegetation will be installed in accordance with the approved landscape plan. The development will be considerate of the environment and will enhance the rural character of the community. As such, the rural character of the community is maintained and privacy is maintained with neighbors. The new landscape will utilize this plant community as the framework for all new plantings in the landscape that will enhance the existing habitat and ecological community already present on site. These native plants are well suited to the existing site without the need for irrigation beyond their establishment period of 1 to 2 years. The trees will provide visual buffers and habitat creation between neighboring properties while preserving and protecting natural drainage patterns on the site. The new landscape adjacent to Crest Road focuses largely on the reestablishment of the coastal sage scrub planting community and providing habit for the local fauna while seamlessly blending the house into the surrounding native hillside without obstructing views H. The project is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenient and safe movement of pedestrians and vehicles. The proposed site plan is not detrimental to convenience and safety of pedestrians and vehicles. The proposed continuous driveway allows for the simplest path between all structures, with an attached garage in the main residence accommodating four vehicles, suitable per Rolling Hills guidelines for the main house, guest house and ADU parking requirements. The open agricultural room in the stable will also facilitate storage of maintenance vehicles and equipment, as well as animal transportation equipment. I. The project conforms to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Project is exempt from the CEQA Guidelines pursuant to Section 15303, Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), which exempts the construction and location of a limited number of new, small facilities or structures, including single family residence and accessory structures, including but not limited to garages, carports, patios, swimming pools and fences. Here, the Project includes development on a vacant lot for a new single-family residence, basement, attached garage, driveway, stable, swimming pool, ADU, guesthouse, 52 6 Resolution No. 2024-06 23 Crest Road East (Ogasawara) trellis, walls, and other residential improvements. Accordingly, the Project qualifies for the exemption pursuant to Section 15303. Further, no exceptions to the exemption apply; there is no reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. The lot is vacant, and it is one of the last undeveloped lots in the neighborhood. Section 7. Conditional Use Permit Findings. RHMC Section 17.16.040 and 17.16.200 require a Conditional Use Permit per RHMC Section 17.16.040(A)(3) for a guest house, per RHMC Section 17.16.040(A)(6) for a stable over 200 square feet, per RHMC Section 17.16.040(A)(7) for corral over 550 square feet, and per 17.16.200(H) for a 400 SF detached trellis, respectively. The Applicant is proposing a 540 SF guesthouse located at the eastern portion of the main building pad. The Applicant is also proposing a 1,225 SF stable with two stalls and a tack room, and a 5,190 SF corral. Given the foregoing, in accordance with RHMC Section 17.42.050, the Planning Commission makes the following findings: A. That the proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan. The granting of a Conditional Use Permit for a guesthouse, stable, corral, and trellis is consistent with the purposes and objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan because the use is consistent with similar uses in the community, and meets all the applicable code development standards for such use. The Project is compatible with existing land uses as other properties in the same zone have a guest house and stable. B. That the nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures have been considered, and that the use will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, building or structures. 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 guest house, stable, corral, and trellis will be located on the property with sufficient proximity to neighboring buildings and structures. C. That the site for the proposed conditional use is of adequate size and shape to accommodate the uses and buildings proposed. The proposed conditional uses comply with all applicable development standards in the RAS-2 Zone. The net lot area is 262,368 square feet (6.02 acres) and is adequate to support the proposed uses. The area of the site considered the "front yard", between the proposed main residence and the street, is the widest and most level part of the site. The exception to this is the location of the stable in the front yard, and the corral in the front yard setback, both are subject to variances. The property will be developed and adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed uses and buildings. D. That the proposed conditional use complies with all applicable development standards of the zone district. 53 7 Resolution No. 2024-06 23 Crest Road East (Ogasawara) The proposed conditional uses comply with all applicable development standards of the RAS-2 Zone, with exception to the variances requested herein. E. That the proposed use is consistent with the portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. Granting the proposed conditional use for the project will be consistent with the applicable portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan related to siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. The project site is not listed on the current State of California Hazardous Waste and Substances Sites List. The proposed project would not constitute a hazardous waste facility. F. That the proposed conditional use observes the spirit and intent of this title. The proposed project allows the Applicant the ability to enjoy rights enjoyed by other residents in the City. The proposed uses are consistent with the residential character of the City. Section 8. Variance Findings. Section 17.38.050 sets forth the required findings for granting Variances to allow the stable, corral, swimming pool, and retaining walls to encroach into the front yard, allow a portion of the corral to encroach into the front yard setback, construct retaining walls exceeding the maximum average height of two-and one-half-feet, construct a basement with a portion extending beyond the building walls of the residence, construct decks/patios more than one foot above grade, and allow grading export. With respect to this request for Variances, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same vicinity and zone. There are extraordinary circumstances applicable to this property. The location of stable and corral between the main house and the street is a design adopted by many neighbors on Crest Road East, requiring a variance to allow stables and corrals in the front yard and front yard setback. The area of the site considered the "front yard", between the proposed main residence and the street, is the widest and most level part of the site. Allowing the proposed pool and retaining walls to encroach into the front yard will be consistent with the natural slope of the existing property. The construction of retaining walls to exceed the maximum average height of two-and one-half-feet, a basement with a portion extending beyond the building walls of the residence, and construction decks/patios more than one foot above grade will minimize grading and support the development. As a result of the shape of the lot, the grading of the project requires a variance to export non-exempt grading of 3,160 CY of soil to keep the peak of the knoll below the height of the street and out of the view of neighbors. B. That such variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights possessed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone but which is denied the property in question. 54 8 Resolution No. 2024-06 23 Crest Road East (Ogasawara) Developments similar to the proposed project, with stables and corrals in the front yard, are enjoyed by many neighbors on Crest Road East who similarly position main residences away from the street to create privacy and maximize views from their residences, all while making the equestrian uses of the neighborhood visible along the street. The variance requests are necessary for preservation and enjoyment of property rights consistent with other properties in the same vicinity and zone. C. That the granting of such variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. Granting a variance for the Project will not be detrimental to the public welfare and will not be injurious to properties in the vicinity because it is consistent with the encroachments by the existing residences and structures. D. That in granting the variance, the spirit and intent of this title will be observed. The granting of the variance will allow for a development that is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the proposed project is visually harmonious with adjacent properties and in scale with adjacent residential development. E. That the variance does not grant special privilege to the applicant. The variance does not grant special privileges for the Applicant; the proposed project is similar to other properties on Crest Road East that have stables and corrals in the front yard and setbacks. The project, together with the variance, will be compatible with the objectives, policies, and general land uses specified in the General Plan. F. That 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. Granting a variance for the project will be consistent with the applicable portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan related to siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. The project site is not listed on the current State of California Hazardous Waste and Substances Sites List. The proposed project would not constitute a hazardous waste facility. G. That the variance request is consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills. Approvals granting the variance to allow encroachments into the front yard setback will be consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills, which encourages residential and equestrian uses. 55 9 Resolution No. 2024-06 23 Crest Road East (Ogasawara) Section 9. Based upon the foregoing findings, and the evidence in the record, the Planning Commission hereby approves Zoning Case No. 23-070 subject to the following conditions: A.

The stop work order shall remain in effect during the pendency of the hearing. The City Council shall make a determination as to whether a violation of this Resolution has occurred. If the Council determines that a violation has not occurred or has been cured by the time of the hearing, the Council will lift the suspension and the stop work order. If the Council determines that a violation has occurred and has not yet been cured, the Council shall provide the Applicant with a deadline to cure the violation; no construction work shall be performed on the property until and unless the violation is cured by the deadline, other than work designated by the Council to accomplish the cure. If the violation is not cured by the deadline, the Council may either extend the deadline at the Applicant’s request or schedule a hearing for the revocation of the entitlements granted by this Resolution pursuant to Chapter 17.58 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC). C. All requirements of the Building and Construction Ordinance, the Zoning ordinance, and of the zone in which the subject property is located must be complied with unless otherwise a variance to such requirement has been approved. D. The lot shall be developed and maintained in substantial conformance with the site plan on file at City Hall and approved by the Planning Commission on June 18, 2024, except as otherwise provided in these conditions.

Landscape will consist of combination of preservation strategies, reestablishing of native specieson site, and addition of appropriately sized plant species to screen views of buildings from the street while preserving view corridors ofneighbors. The approach to the land was driven by a study of the existing contours of the site so that the massing and orientation of theproposed buildings carefully follow the topography, while minimizing site disturbance. The project was also informed by a study of thepreviously approved design for this site (2017) and the City of Rolling Hills review criteria, so that pre-existing approved strategies forwater management (sensitive to downhill properties in the runoff zone of 23 Crest Rd. E), minimal grading, and view preservation werecentral to the design process and are reflected in this design proposal for 23 Crest Road East.Project DirectoryOWNER:Yukiko Ogasawara3 Flying Mane

Date: 06/18/2024 TO:HONORABLE CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION FROM:JOHN SIGNO, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING & COMMUNITY SERVICES THRU:KARINA BAÑALES, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT:ZONING CASE 24-018: A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING APPROVAL OF A LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT BETWEEN FOUR PARCELS AT 1-4 STORM HILL LANE, AND DETERMINING THE PROJECT EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (APN 7570-024-019, 7570-024-020, 7570-024-021, AND 7570-024-024) (STORM PROPERTIES, INC.) DATE:June 18, 2024 BACKGROUND: The four lots are located in the RAS-2 zoning district in the western portion of the City. Access is via Johns Canyon Road. The northwestern portion of the site abuts property in unincorporated Los Angeles County (See Attachment 1). All four lots have irregular shapes. Three of the lots are vacant (1-3 Storm Hill Lane) and one is developed with a house and accessory structures (4 Storm Hill Lane). The lots were created in November 2000 by a subdivision under Parcel Map No. 26356 (originally Tentative Tract Map No. 52292) that subdivided two lots totaling 67.69 acres into four lots (see Resolution No. 894 included as Attachment 3). One of the conditions of Parcel Map No. 26356 required that the applicants construct certain improvements prior to filing a Final Map, or enter into a secured agreement with the City to complete the improvements and land development work. In 2005, prior to finalizing and recording the subdivision map, the owners chose to bond for the improvements, rather than construct them. After the recent completion of the road, the City released the bonds in April 2024. Another condition required that the owners agree not to further subdivide the lots and a covenant agreement was recorded to that effect (see Conditions 15(ab) and 45 of Resolution No. 894 in Attachment 3 and covenant agreement in Attachments 4 and 5). 107 On November 19, 2019, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 2019-16, approving Zoning Case No. 949, granting a lot line adjustment between the four lots (see Attachment 7). The Planning Commission also adopted Resolution No. 2019-17 approving a Site Plan Review for a shorter road and to construct required improvements (see Attachment 8). The lot line adjustment modified the lot lines to conform to the shorter road in order to meet the City’s requirements for access to lots. On January 13, 2020, City Council received and filed the Planning Commission’s actions. DISCUSSION: Lot Line Adjustment Justification The application was evaluated as to conformance with all applicable zoning and subdivision standards. The lot line adjustment will not result in creating any new non-conformity. The three vacant parcels are of substantial size to meet the zoning development requirements for development and the already developed lot will remain conforming. No new lots are being created and no new development is being proposed with this application. Pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act, the Planning Commission may not impose conditions or exactions on its approval of a lot line adjustment except to conform to local zoning and building ordinances. There are no variances associated with this application. Approval from the RHCA is also required for this lot line adjustment. The Los Angeles County Regional Planning Land Development Division, under contract with the City, will review the legal descriptions of the newly configured lots, and the RHCA will verify the legal descriptions for the new easements within those lots. The recorded Certificate of Compliance shows the legal descriptions for each existing lot (see Attachment 9). Once the lot line adjustments are approved and the legal descriptions for the adjusted lots verified, the appropriate Certificate of Compliance documents will be prepared for recordation of the newly configured lots. The proposed lot line adjustment will not affect the connection points nor frontage onto Storm Hill Lane, which was approved in 2019 under Resolution No. 2019-16. Driveways for Lots 2 and 3 will be at the end of the cul-de-sac with 108.64 feet of road frontage each. Lots 1 and 4 will have driveways on the straight portions of the road with more than 500 feet of frontage on Storm Hill Lane and additional frontage on Johns Canyon Road (see Attachment 11). Pursuant to RHMC Section 16.44.030, lot line adjustments shall be processed in compliance with the procedures specified in Chapter 17.46 (Site Plan Review). Section 17.46.050 requires the Commission to make certain findings, which are included in the proposed resolution. ANALYSIS: Lot Size The property is zoned RAS-2, which requires a minimum net lot area of two acres according to Section 17.16.010.B of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC). The proposed lot line adjustment meets the minimum net lot area for all four lots. However, Resolution No. 894, which approved the original subdivision, includes Condition No. 45 which reads: “Further division of this property to parcel sizes below five acres will require standard improvements be completed as a condition of approval. The improvements shall include 108 but are not limited to providing access, installation of water mains, appurtenances and fire hydrants, and conformance to the City of Rolling Hills’ development standards.” This condition applies a higher standard as compared to the RHMC. Although the proposed lot line adjustment will not create a new parcel, the net lot area for Parcel 1 will be less than five acres at 4.10 acres while the gross lot area will be 5.37 acres. The condition is unclear if the parcel size applies to the net or gross lot area. The Planning Commission can restate this condition in the proposed resolution of approval to clarify whether 5 acres is intended to mean net or gross lot area (see Condition I of proposed resolution in Attachment 2). All the improvements required by the condition have been constructed with exception to the driveway access, which will be installed when development is proposed. LOT SIZES IN ACRES* PARCEL EXISTING GROSS EXISTING NET PROPOSED GROSS PROPOSED NET NET CHANGE Parcel 1 7.57 6.13 5.37 4.10 -2.03 Parcel 2 35.05 33.44 32.35 30.82 -2.62 Parcel 3 17.28 15.80 21.92 20.44 +4.64 Parcel 4 7.79 6.85 8.06 7.11 +0.26 TOTAL 67.7 62.23 67.7 62.47 +0.24 *Note: Total existing and proposed net lot sizes do not add up because the lot line adjustment slightly changes the 10-foot buffer along lot lines. Conceptual Pad Sizes Pursuant to RHMC Section 17.16.095, the minimum graded building pad is 12,000 square feet. Although the pad sizes are conceptual, the applicant has demonstrated it is possible to meet the minimum graded building pad size for each lot (see Attachments 10-11). Parcel 1 would require a total of 884 cubic yards (CY) of grading for a 37,500-square-foot pad; Parcel 2 would require 32,000 CY of grading for a 99,500-square-foot pad; and Parcel 3 would require 29,200 CY of grading for a 50,100-square-foot pad. Conceptual grading would be balanced onsite. Actual grading will be reviewed by the Planning Commission once development is proposed. Planning Commission Responsibilities When reviewing a development application, the Planning Commission must consider whether the proposed project meets the criteria for a Lot Line Adjustment and findings for Site Plan Review as described below. LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT/MERGER CRITERIA 16.44.040 Approval or Denial of Adjustment. The Planning Commission shall determine whether the parcels resulting from the adjustment will conform to the applicable provisions of this title. The Planning Commission may approve, conditionally approve, or deny the lot line adjustment in compliance with this section. Decisions made by the Planning Commission may be appealed to the City Council in compliance with Chapter 17.46 of this code. 109 A. Required findings. A proposed lot line adjustment shall be denied if the Planning Commission finds any of the following: 1. The adjustment will have the effect of creating a greater number of parcels than exist before adjustment; 2. Any parcel resulting from the adjustment will conflict with any applicable regulations of the zoning ordinance; or 3. The adjustment will result in an increase in the number of nonconforming parcels. 4. The project conforms to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act. SITE PLAN REVIEW CRITERIA Pursuant to RHMC Section 16.44.030, lot line adjustments shall be processed in compliance with the procedures specified in Chapter 17.46 (Site Plan Review). Section 17.46.050 requires the Commission to make findings in order to approve a site plan review. 17.46.050 Required Site Plan Review Findings. No project which requires Site Plan Review approval shall be approved by the Commission, or by the City Council on appeal, unless the following findings can be made: 1. The project complies with and is consistent with the goals and policies of the general plan and all requirements of the zoning ordinance; 2. The project substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage. Lot coverage requirements are regarded as maximums, and the actual amount of lot coverage permitted depends upon the existing buildable area of the lot; 3. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences; 4. The project preserves and integrates into the site design, to the greatest extent possible, existing topographic features of the site, including surrounding native vegetation, mature trees, drainage courses and land forms (such as hillsides and knolls); 5. Grading has been designed to follow natural contours of the site and to minimize the amount of grading required to create the building area; 6. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, unless such flow is redirected into an existing drainage course; 7. The project preserves surrounding native vegetation and mature trees and supplements these elements with drought-tolerant landscaping which is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community, and landscaping provides a buffer or transition area between private and public areas; 8. The project is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenient and safe movement of pedestrians and vehicles; and 9. The project conforms to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act. Review by RHCA The Rolling Hills Community Association will review this project and any easements to be recorded, pursuant to RHMC 16.44.030. 110 Public Correspondence As of the date of publication of this staff report, staff received two phone calls from residents on Sunnyridge Road and Eastvale Rod in the County of Los Angeles. A resident called on June 12, 2024, and received the public hearing notice in the mail. The resident inquired about the road location, number of lots, lot sizes, and if the project would have direct access to Crenshaw Boulevard. On June 13, 2024, a second call was received asking about if development was occurring and what could be built. Staff was able to provide answers and the residents did not express objection to the lot line adjustment. Environmental Review The Project has been determined to be exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (Pub. Resources Code, §§ 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines (Cal. Code Regs, tit. 14, §§ 15000 et seq.) sections 15060(c)(2) and 15061(b)(3) in that the lot line adjustment will not have a significant effect on the environment and will not result in any direct or foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment; it does not authorize any development or other activity that could result in a significant effect on the environment. FISCAL IMPACT: None. RECOMMENDATION: Consider the item and provide direction to the applicant and staff.

THE PLANNING COMMISSION DOES HEREBY FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. An application was duly filed by Storm Properties, Inc., with respect to real properties located at 1-4 Storm Hill Lane and applying for a Lot Line Adjustment between four (4) parcels of land which were created by a subdivision, Parcel Map No. 26356. The parcels under consideration are Assessor Parcel Numbers (APN) 7570-024- 019, 7570-024-020, 7570-024-021, and 7570-024-024. No new lots are being created and no new development is being proposed with this application. Section 2. California Government Code Subsection 66412(d) authorizes lot line adjustments without requiring a tentative map, parcel map or final map if: (A) The lot line adjustment involves four 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. The City may impose conditions on the Lot Line Adjustment in order to make the lot conform to local zoning and building ordinances, to require the prepayment of real property taxes prior to the approval of the Lot Line Adjustment or to facilitate the relocation of existing infrastructure or easements. (Id.) Section 3. The Rolling Hills Municipal Code also provides a procedure for the preparation, filing, processing, and approval or denial of a lot line adjustment application consistent with the policies of the General Plan and the requirements of the Subdivision Map Act (See Chapter 16.44 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code-RHMC). The Planning Commission, in approving a lot line adjustment, shall adopt conditions only as necessary to conform the adjusted parcels comply with the requirements of Title 17 (Zoning) or to facilitate the relocation of existing utilities, infrastructure, trails or easements. (See RHMC Section 16.44.040.) Section 4. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the application at a field trip and evening meeting on June 18, 2024. The applicant was notified of the public hearing in writing by first class mail. Neighbors within a 1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearing and a notice was published in the Daily Breeze on June 8,2024. The Planning Commission reviewed and considered the 113 65277.00010\42311340.2 Resolution No. 2024-___ (ZC 24-018) Storm Hill Lane – Lot Line Adjustment 2 staff report, reviewed and considered the Applicant’s request, public testimony, and other information on the record. Section 5. The Planning Commission finds and determines that the proposed project is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (Pub. Resources Code, §§ 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines (Cal. Code Regs, tit. 14, §§ 15000 et seq.) sections 15060(c)(2) and 15061(b)(3) in that the lot line adjustment will not have a significant effect on the environment and will not result in any direct or foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment; it does not authorize any development or other activity that could result in a significant effect on the environment. Section 6. Lot Line Adjustment Findings. RHMC Section 16.44.040 requires the Planning Commission to deny a proposed lot line adjustment if any of the circumstances provided in subsections (A)(1), (A)(2) or (A)(3) therein are present. The Planning Commission has considered the evidence, both written and oral, in connection with this application and has determined that none of the circumstances justifying denial are present. Accordingly, the Planning Commission hereby finds as follows: A. The adjustment will not have the effect of creating a greater number of parcels than exist before adjustment. The adjustment will not have the effect of creating a greater number of parcels than existed before the adjustment. Four lots currently exist, and only four lots will exist following the adjustment. B. No parcels resulting from the adjustment will conflict with any applicable regulations of the zoning ordinance. The parcels resulting from the adjustment will not conflict with any applicable regulations of the zoning ordinance. The lots compliant with the zoning code in terms of size and the lot line adjustments will not cause any non-conformities. All of the subject parcels are in the RAS-2 zone, and after the lot line adjustment, will remain in compliance with the two net acre minimum lot size required by the zone. C. The adjustment will not result in an increase in the number of nonconforming parcels. The adjustment will not result in an increase in the number of nonconforming parcels. All four (4) subject parcels will have an area over the two net acre requirement in RAS-2 zone. Section 7. Site Plan Review Findings. Pursuant to RHMC Section 16.44.030, lot line adjustments shall be processed in compliance with the procedures specified in Chapter 17.46 (Site Plan Review). Section 17.46.050 requires the Commission to make findings in order to approve a site plan review. The Planning Commission has considered 114 65277.00010\42311340.2 Resolution No. 2024-___ (ZC 24-018) Storm Hill Lane – Lot Line Adjustment 3 the evidence, both written and oral, in connection with this application and with respect to the site plan review for the lot line adjustment, the Planning Commission hereby finds as follows: A. The project complies with and is consistent with the goals and policies of the general plan and all requirements of the zoning ordinance. The proposed lot line adjustment is compatible with the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance and surrounding uses because it meets the requirements of the criteria for approving of a lot line adjustment and there are no new structures being proposed with this application. The lot line adjustment will not affect the developed lot as the existing structures will continue to maintain sufficient setbacks to provide buffers between them and the future residential uses. B. The project substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage. Lot coverage requirements are regarded as maximums, and the actual amount of lot coverage permitted depends upon the existing buildable area of the lot. The lot line adjustment substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot as there is no additional development proposed as part of the lot line adjustment. Allowing for the lot line adjustment will allow for necessary grading needed for creation of a driveway on Lot 2 to occur entirely on that lot. Without such lot line adjustment, grading would need to be done on Lot 1 in order to create the driveway on Lot 2. C. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences. The existing conditions of the lots are harmonious in scale with the neighborhood, and the lots are much larger than surrounding lots. Since the lot line adjustment will not change the level of development on the properties, the lot line adjustment will not result in any less consistency with the scale of the neighborhood. Further, the lot line adjustment will allow for the lot lines to match the location of the trail easement managed by the Rolling Hills Community Association (RHCA). D. The project preserves and integrates into the site design, to the greatest extent possible, existing topographic features of the site, including surrounding native vegetation, mature trees, drainage courses and land forms (such as hillsides and knolls). The lot line adjustment is compatible with the rural character of the community and makes no change to the existing conditions because no development is proposed with the lot line adjustment. E. Grading has been designed to follow natural contours of the site and to minimize the amount of grading required to create the building area. 115 65277.00010\42311340.2 Resolution No. 2024-___ (ZC 24-018) Storm Hill Lane – Lot Line Adjustment 4 There is no grading proposed with this lot line adjustment. Grading and drainage for future development will be evaluated at a later time. F. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, unless such flow is redirected into an existing drainage course. There is no grading proposed with this lot line adjustment. Grading and drainage for future development will be evaluated at a later time. G. The project preserves surrounding native vegetation and mature trees and supplements these elements with drought-tolerant landscaping which is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community, and landscaping provides a buffer or transition area between private and public areas. The proposed lot line adjustment preserves the native vegetation and mature trees as no development is proposed at this time. Future development will be evaluated at a later time. H. The project is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenient and safe movement of pedestrians and vehicles; and The proposed lot line adjustment is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles because the newly constructed road has taken into consideration the convenience and safety for pedestrians and vehicles and was recommended for approval by the City’s Traffic Commission. Further, the lot line adjustment will allow for the lot lines to match with the location of the RHCA trail easement. I. The project conforms to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act. The Project has been determined to be exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (Pub. Resources Code, §§ 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines (Cal. Code Regs, tit. 14, §§ 15000 et seq.) sections 15060(c)(2) and 15061(b)(3) in that the lot line adjustment will not have a significant effect on the environment and will not result in any direct or foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment; it does not authorize any development or other activity that could result in a significant effect on the environment. Section 8. Conditions of Approval. Given the foregoing the Planning Commission hereby approves the lot line adjustment, subject to the following conditions: A. The approval shall expire within two years from the effective date of approval as defined in Section 17.46.070, unless otherwise extended pursuant to the requirements of this section. 116 65277.00010\42311340.2 Resolution No. 2024-___ (ZC 24-018) Storm Hill Lane – Lot Line Adjustment 5 B. To the extent permitted by law, Permittee shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City of Rolling Hills, its City Council, its officers, employees and agents (the “indemnified parties”) from and against any claim, action, or proceeding brought by a third party against the indemnified parties and the applicant to attack, set aside, or void any permit or approval for this project authorized by the City, including (without limitation) reimbursing the City its actual attorney’s fees and costs in defense of the litigation. The City may, in its sole discretion, elect to defend any such action with attorneys of its choice. The permittee shall reimburse the City for any court and attorney's fees which the City may be required to pay as a result of any claim or action brought against the City because of this permit. Although the permittee is the real party in interest in an action, the City may, at its sole discretion, participate at its own expense in the defense of the action, but such participation shall not relieve the permittee of any obligation under this condition. C. The lot line adjustment approval shall not in any way constitute any representation that the adjusted lots can be developed even if in compliance with current zoning and building ordinance standards. No development, including study of soils, geology, hydrology, grading, and other requirements, shall occur on the properties without first complying with all applicable City Building and Zoning requirements and other applicable rules and regulations. D. The lot line adjustment shall not in any respect limit or impair the City's application of the Site Plan Review Ordinance to the lots at such time as an application is made for development. E. The applicants shall execute an Affidavit of Acceptance of all conditions of this Resolution for approval to be effective. F. There shall be easements within the adjusted boundaries of the lots, as required by the Rolling Hills Community Association. G. The Certificate of Compliance shall not be issued until a legal description complying with the delineation of adjustment are submitted to, and approved by the City. Upon the City's approval of the legal descriptions of the new adjusted lines a Certificate of Compliance shall be issued by the City, shall be recorded by the property owner in the offices of the Los Angeles County Recorder, and evidence of the recordation shall be returned to the City. H. The applicant shall record the deeds of the properties effectuating the transfer concurrently with the Certificate of Compliance for the Lot Line Adjustment and shall submit proof of such recordation to the City of Rolling Hills. I. Further division of these properties to parcel sizes below a gross lot area of five acres will require standard improvements be completed as a condition of approval. The improvements shall include but are not limited to providing access, installation of 117 65277.00010\42311340.2 Resolution No. 2024-___ (ZC 24-018) Storm Hill Lane – Lot Line Adjustment 6 water mains, appurtenances and fire hydrants, and conformance to the City of Rolling Hills’ development standards.

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS DOES HEREBY FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. An application was duly filed by Mr. Walter V. Storm, President, Western Brass Development Corporation, Et al with respect to real property Lots 169 -A -MS & 169 -B- MS, and generally known as 4 Storm Hill Lane, Rolling Hills, requesting approval to subdivide two existing lots totaling 67.64 acres into four (4) single-family lots. The subject property currently has one residential development located north of Johns Canyon Road at 4 Storm Hill Lane. Section 2. The application was received on March 13, 1997 and forwarded for review by the Subdivision Committee of the Los Angeles County Regional Planning Department. The application was received for processing on March 30, 2000. The Planning Commission reviewed the case at subsequent meetings beginning on June 20, 2000, and concluding with a recommendation of approval to the City Council by Resolution No. 2000-20 on September 19, 2000. Section 3. The application applies to Lots 169 -A -MS & 169 -B -MS, which consists of 67.64 acres gross. The two lots are proposed to be divided into four parcels as follows: Parcel 1 will be 8.38 acres gross and 6.46 acres net; Parcel 2 will be 38.04 acres gross and 33.87 acres net; Parcel 3 will be 14.78 acres gross and 11.44 acres net; and Parcel 4 will be 6.44 acres gross and 5.41 acres net and where there is an existing single family residential development. Lots 169- A -MS & 169 -B -MS are within the RA -S-2 zone district (2 -acre minimum zone), and referred to as Assessor's Book, Page, and Parcel No. 7570 - 024 - 003 & 7570 -024 - 012. The General Plan Land Use designation for this property is Very Low Density Residential 2+ Net Acres per Dwelling Unit. Section 4. The subject site is presently occupied by one single-family residential structure at the southwestern portion of the property at 4 Storm Hill Lane that is surrounded by landscaping. The existing residential structure will be located on Parcel 4. The remainder of the lot is presently vacant with natural vegetation in a semi -disturbed state. The site is surrounded by other single family dwellings on 2+ acre size lots to the east, south and west within the City of Rolling Hills and single family dwellings on one-half acre lots at the north that are within the adjacent unincorporated Westfield portion of Los Angeles County. The zone designation for the subject site is RA -S-2 and the zone designation on adjacent properties is RA -S-2 within the City of Rolling Hills. Section 5. The City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the application on October 9, 2000, October 23, 2000, November 13, 2000, and November 27, 2000 and at a field trip visit on October 17, 2000. During the hearings, the applicants straightened the western property line of Parcel 3 and reduced the driveway slope for that parcel. Evidence was heard and presented from all persons interested in affecting said proposal, from all persons protesting the same, and from members of the City staff and the City Council having reviewed, analyzed and studied said proposal. The applicants' representatives were in attendance at the hearings. Section 6. According to Section 16.12.110 of Title 16, Subdivisions, of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code, the Planning Commission is the advisory agency for review of a tentative parcel map and the Commission is to make its recommendations to the City Council upon completing evaluation of all environmental impacts pursuant to the local guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Section 7. The Planning staff prepared an initial study for the project on May 26, 2000. The initial study found that the project would not have a significant effect on the environment if certain measures were included in the project. The Negative Declaration was prepared with those mitigation measures and was circulated to the applicant and other interested parties in accordance with State of California CEQA Guidelines. The public notice of the Planning Commission's intent to recommend approval of the Negative Declaration was published. Copies of the Negative Declaration were sent to adjacent cities and other RESOLUTION NO. 894 PAGE 1 120 government agencies. Comments from the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, Carlsbad Office, and the California Department of Fish & Game on the_ Negative Declaration were received and made a part of the record. Concerns were expressed regarding future fire protection, noise, views, drainage, trails, wildlife preservation, and restricted areas, in relation to the proposed subdivision. Section 8. The City Council has reviewed the proposed Negative Declaration and finds that it represents the independent judgment of the City and that it was prepared in compliance with CEQA. Therefore, the Council finds that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because mitigation measures have been added to the project, and are incorporated herein by reference. Based upon these findings, the City Council hereby adopts the mitigated Negative Declaration in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act. Section 9. Pursuant to Section 16.12.150 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code, a tentative map shall be rejected under certain conditions. Based upon substantial evidence presented to the Planning Commission and City Council of the City of Rolling Hills during the public hearings referenced in Section 2 and 6, including public testimony, and written and oral staff reports, the City Council finds as follows: A. The proposed subdivision map and the design and improvement of the proposed subdivision are consistent with the applicable General Plan, including but not limited to, the following goals and policies of the General Plan: 1. Maintain Rolling Hills' distinctive rural residential character (Land Use Element, p. 15) by creating a subdivision greater than the minimum lot size that will allow significant portions of the parcels to remain undeveloped thereby preserving sensitive natural habitat and maintaining scenic vistas. 2. Accommodate development which is compatible with and complements existing land uses (Land Use Element, p. 15) by creating a subdivision with lots that are greater than the minimum lot size and allowing significant portions of the parcels to remain undeveloped, preserving the City's equestrian trail system, and preserving significant areas of sensitive natural habitat and scenic vistas. 3. Accommodate development that is sensitive to the natural environment and accounts for environmental hazards (Land Use Element, p. 16) by creating a subdivision with lots that are greater than the minimum lot size, separating existing geological hazard areas, and preserving significant areas of sensitive natural habitat. 4. Provide for housing which meets the needs of existing and future Rolling Hills residents (Housing Element, p. 44) by creating a subdivision that will increase the potential housing units available to satisfy the housing needs of the City's residents. 5. Maintain and enhance the quality of residential neighborhoods in Rolling Hills (Housing Element, p. 44) by extending and improving the existing Storm Hill Lane, maintaining the City's equestrian trail system, and preserving and maintaining large areas of sensitive natural habitat and scenic vistas. 6. Promote housing opportunities for all persons regardless of race, religion, sex, marital status, ancestry, national origin or color (Housing Element, p. 45) by creating a subdivision with lots that will increase the potential housing units available to satisfy the housing needs of the City's residents and the residents of the South Bay Region. 7. Conserve and enhance the City's natural resources, facilitating development in a manner which reflects the characteristics, sensitivities and constraints of these resources (Open Space and Conservation Element, p. 15) by creating a subdivision with lots that are greater than the minimum lot size, isolating existing geological hazard areas on one of the four parcels, and preserving large areas of sensitive natural habitat. B. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density and type of development. The proposed use, density, and proposed subdivision improvements are permitted in the RA- S -2 zone. The RA -S-2 Zone requires that the minimum lot size be 2 acres net. The project has 67.64 acres and creates lots with the following dimensions: Parcel 1 is 6.46 acres net, Parcel 2 is 33.87 acres net, Parcel 3 is 11.44 acres net, and Parcel 4 is 5.41 acres net, all of which exceed the minimum 2 -acre lot size of the RA -S-2 zone. RESOLUTION NO. 894 PAGE 2 121 C. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvement is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage; or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat, because the prop rty is within an area of the City, designated for development and the City's development criteria will insure that any fish, wildlife, or sensitive habitats on the property are adequately protected. Although, the initial study prepared for the project identified the site as containing unique or sensitive environmental qualities and threatened, rare or endangered plant species were identified during review of the project and addressed wildlife habitat will be replaced at a ratio of 4:1. The subdividers have voluntary consented to record a restrictive covenant prohibiting the further subdivision of each of the four parcels created to preserve the natural environment. D. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems because conditions of approval have been applied to the project to require compliance with applicable codes and ordinances designed to protect public health and safety. E. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. The existing roadway easements will be maintained or expanded by this project and adequate access will be provided to each parcel and adjacent parcels. In addition, each parcel created as part of this subdivision will contain perimeter easements providing access for roads, trails, and public utilities. As a condition of approval, these easements will be recorded in deeds prior to approval of the final map. F. The proposed subdivision will not adversely affect the housing needs of the region. In fact, the proposed subdivision will increase the potential housing units available to satisfy the housing needs of the City's residents. G. The proposed use will be in substantial compliance with the provisions of the Residential Development Standards in the Rolling Hills Zoning Ordinance. H. The proposed subdivision is in compliance with the 40% maximum disturbed area requirement contained in Section 17.16.070(B) of the Zoning Ordinance. I. The proposed use will be compatible with other existing residential development in the immediate area. J. The tentative map design provides for future passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible because the project is designed with lots of adequate dimensions to maximize the opportunities for passive and natural heating and cooling. The subdivision is surrounded by single-family homes and will provide similar lots. K. The tentative map does not propose to divide land which is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965, because the property in question has not been included in any such contract. L. Pursuant to Section 66474.6 of the Government Code (Subdivision Map Act), the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into proposed septic systems will not result in violation of existing requirements prescribed by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, because the subdivider is required to comply with all Conditions of Approval regarding waste disposal contained in Section 12 of this Resolution. M. Pursuant to the Rolling Hills Municipal Code Section 16.12.155, this Tentative Tract Map is consistent with and does not impact the County of Los Angeles Hazardous Waste Management Plan. The project will not generate any hazardous waste. Section 10. Pursuant to the Rolling Hills Municipal Code Section 16.12.130, the City Council grants the following modifications to the Subdivision Ordinance for this project are determined to be warranted because of the size and shape of the proposed division of land and the unusual physical conditions thereon: A. Street Grades. The Rolling Hills Municipal Code Section 16.16.150 requires that no street shall have a grade of more than six (6) percent except for short distances where the topography makes it impracticable to keep within such grades, and in that event, the grade shall not exceed ten (10) percent except where evidence which is satisfactory to the Advisory Agency is given that a lower grade is not possible. However, the maximum permissible grade shall not exceed seventeen percent for a distance of more than one hundred fifty feet. Proposed RESOLUTION NO. 894 PAGE 3 122 1,387 foot long Storm Hill Lane has a grade beginning at Johns Canyon Road that varies from 12% for 674 feet, 15% for 653 feet, and 5% for 60 feet at the hammerhead turn at the terminus of Storm Hill Lane. Based upon the evidence submitted, the Planning Commission finds that the existing topography and road make it impossible to construct a roadway with a maximum 10% grade unless a switchback design is incorporated which would traverse and render undevelopable at least one lot in the proposed subdivision. The alteration of the road to meet the minimum guidelines would also cause large amounts of grading which would be detrimental to the natural environment and sensitive habitat identified on the property and would require retaining walls exceeding 5 feet in height along portions of Storm Hill Lane. B. Maximum slope. The Rolling Hills Municipal Code Section 16.16.040(D) requires that the depth of any parcel be equal to or greater than the width along the front street easement, with a maximum slope of 29%. All of the parcels are greater than the width along the front street easement, but, areas of Parcels 1, 2, and 3 exceed a slope of 29%. Based upon the evidence submitted, the Planning Commission finds that the existing topography and geology determined the design of the proposed parcels. To reduce the 29% grades, excessive grading would be required that would exceed the 40% limitation of disturbance, disturb sensitive habitat, and require retaining walls that exceed 5 feet. C. Width along Street Easement. The Rolling Hills Municipal Code Section 16.16.040(A) requires that the abutting footage of any lot along the street easement line shall be at least equal to or greater than that 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. The abutting footage of the street easement line of Parcel 3 along Storm Hill Lane is 55 feet. But, the width of the front of the parcel at that point is 430 feet. Due to the layout of the proposed project, the alteration of the street easement line at that point would not be practicable because it is the terminus of Storm Hill Lane and topographical conditions make it impractical. Section 11. Based upon the foregoing findings, the City Council approves Tentative Tract Map No. 52292, Subdivision No. 89 in Zoning Case No. 615, a request for a four (4) lot subdivision of land (attached hereto as Exhibit A) subject to the modifications to the subdivision ordinance specified in Section 10 and further subject to the conditions contained in Section 12 of this resolution.

Variances are requested for: Construction of the stable in the front yard; Stable and riding ring to encroach into the side setback; Corral in front and side yard; Import of dirt; and Exceed the maximum 40% disturbed area. DISCUSSION: Site Plan Review As per Rolling Hills Municipal Site Plan Review is required for the construction of any new building or structure pursuant to Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC) Section 17.46.020(A). The Project is for a Site Plan Review to construct new two-story stable, non-exempt grading, and retaining walls to exceed 3 feet height (maximum 5 feet height). Site Plan Review for the stable and riding ring The applicant requests a site plan review for the construction of the new two-story stable and other equestrian improvements, including two new run-in sheds and a riding ring. 251 Site Plan Review for non-exempt grading The total proposed grading for the project is 460 cubic yards of dirt, 128 cubic yards cut, 66 cubic yards overexcavation, 164 cubic yards fill, 66 cubic yards recompaction, and 36 cubic yards import. The existing east portion of the recreational sports court will be developed for driveway access to the second floor which will require grading. The stable requires 83 cubic yards of cut and 23 cubic yards of fill with a maximum depth of 8 feet. The new driveway requires 28 cubic yards cut and 135 cubic yards of fill with a max depth of 4 feet. There is an area that requires extra fill 66 cubic yards of imported dirt that will be filled between the north stable retaining wall and grade. The import of dirt is part of the variance request.

The new driveway is 10 feet wide and 62 feet long that leads to an adjacent 936-square-foot wide DG area accessible to the barn doors to enter the hay storage area. The top driveway wall has a max height of 4.5 feet high with an average 2.5 feet height. Where as the bottom driveway wall has a maximum height of 4.5 feet. The driveway walls also propose a guard rail. 2. There is a staircase with a planter at the west corner of the stable that leads to the first floor. 3. The northwestern corner of the property will have a 120-square-foot run-in shed with a maximum 4-foot-high wall that encroaches into the northern side setback. Conditional Use Permit (CUP) As per Rolling Hills Municipal Code Section 17.80.050 a Conditional Use Permit is required for a stable greater than 200 square feet and a corral that is greater than 550 square feet in size. The applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit for the 4,038-square-foot stable, 5,597-square-foot riding ring, and existing 8,800-square-foot corral. The temporary corral was approved by staff in March 2023 to provide shelter and outdoor space for the horses while the applicant obtains discretionary approvals for the Project. Conditional Use Permit for stable greater than 200 square feet: The existing recreational sports court was constructed in the 1990s, but the applicant is converting the court from recreation use to equestrian uses. The west portion of the recreational sports/tennis court will be converted to a riding ring. The east portion of the court will be converted into a two-story stable. The first floor of the stable will include 5 indoor stalls, 1 foaling stall, 5 outdoor stalls with turnouts, storage room, X-tie area, washroom, and an aisle that leads to a decomposed granite path to the arena. The first story of the stable and arena is accessible from the bridle trail located in the northern portion of the property. The Rolling Hills Community Association (RHCA) has granted the owner use of the bridle trail for stable access and emergency access. The second floor of the stable incudes a hay storage with hay chutes and 565-square foot tack room with a bathroom and kitchenette.

The driveway will slope downward from the street to the new stable. 252 Conditional Use Permit for horse riding ring The RHMC requires a Conditional Use Permit for a horseback riding ring. The existing 7,030- square-foot recreational sports court is located at the northeastern portion of the subject property. The project proposes 5,597 square feet of the existing west side of the court to be converted into the riding arena, the remainder of 1,433 square feet to be converted into the stable. The new riding ring complies with all of the requirements in RHMC Section 17.18.100, with the exception of the encroachment of 3 feet into the north side setback. This is part of the Variance request. The riding ring is accessible from the bridle trail located on the northside of the parcel. Conditional Use Permit for corral greater than 550 square feet The southeast corner of the parcel was an existing dirt area that was converted into temporary corral. The temporary corral was approved by staff in March 2023 to provide shelter and outdoor space for the horses while the applicant obtains discretionary approvals for the Project. The existing corral is 8,800 square feet and currently contains two run-sheds totaling 240 square feet and a 120-square-foot storage shed. A third run-in shed is proposed in this area, and a fourth is proposed in the rear of the property next to the pool equipment. The two new run-in sheds will be 120 square feet each. Variances Variances for the construction of stable in the front yard, stable and riding ring to encroach into the side setback, corral in front and side yard, import of dirt, and to exceed the maximum 40% disturbed area. Variance for the construction of stable in the front yard Section 17.18.060.A(2) requires that stables shall not be permitted in the front yard. The new stable encroaches into the front yard and requires a Variance to encroach into the front yard. Variance for the riding ring and stable to encroach side setback The existing recreational sports court was constructed in the 1990s, the north section of the sports court encroaches 3 feet into the required 35-foot setback. The west portion of the recreational sports/tennis court will be converted to a riding ring. The east portion of the court will be converted into a two-story stable. The new stable and riding ring will encroach 3 feet into the 35 foot required setback. Variance for the corral in the front yard and side setback The Rolling Hills Municipal Code Section 17.18.090(3) states corrals shall not be located in the front yard of the lot and no less than thirty-five feet from the side property line in the RAS-2 zone, no less than twenty-five feet from the side roadway easement line and no closer than twenty-five from the rear property line. The temporary corral located in the front yard, front setback, and side setback was approved by staff and Rolling Hills Community Association in March of 2023 to provide shelter and outdoor space for the horses while the applicant is in the process obtaining discretionary approvals for the Project. The existing corral is 8,800 square feet and currently contains two run-sheds totaling 240 square feet and a 120-square-foot storage shed. The applicants are requesting variances for the southeastern portion of the corral to encroach into the front yard, 10 feet into the required 35-foot side setback, 50 feet into the required 50-foot front setback. The corral does not encroach into the side easement. 253 Variance for the import of dirt The proposed cut and fill grading for the project is 424 cubic yards, and all dirt will be balanced onsite. However, there is an area that requires extra fill 36 cubic yards of imported dirt that will be filled between the north stable retaining wall and grade. The applicants are requesting a variance to import 36 cubic yards of dirt for total grading for the project of 460 cubic yards. Variance to exceed the maximum 40% disturbed area The existing disturbed area on the lot is 39,627 square feet (47.8%) which exceeds the lot coverage limitations by 7.8% (40% maximum permitted); the proposed 4,038-square-foot stable further disturbed area by 2.2%. The proposed disturbed area will be 42,377 square feet or 50% which also exceeds the lot coverage limitation of 40% maximum by 10%. Therefore, a Variance is required to allow the minor increase disturbed area for the proposed stable. Municipal Code Compliance Lot Coverage The proposed structural coverage on the lot will be 15,922 square feet, or 19.2% of the lot, which is below the lot coverage limitations of 20% maximum. The proposed total coverage including structures and flatwork will be 25,601 square feet or 30% of the lot area which also below the lot coverage limitation of 35% maximum. Height of stable and corral fencing The maximum ridgeline of the new stable would be 24 feet in height. The existing 8,800- square-foot corral consists of a white three-rail fence.

The existing topography slopes downward from Morgan Lane toward the rear of the lot. 260 2 Resolution No. 2024-__ (ZC 24-016) 1 Morgan Lane (HU) Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the application at a field trip meeting and regular meeting on June 18, 2024. Neighbors within a 1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearings and a notice was published in the Daily Breeze on June 8, 2024. The Applicant was notified of the public hearings in writing by first class mail and was in attendance at the hearings. Section 4. The Project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines pursuant to Section 15303, Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), which exempts the construction and location of a limited number of new, small facilities or structures, including accessory structures, including but not limited to garages, carports, patios, swimming pools and fences. Here, the proposed Project includes the construction of a new stable, non-exempt grading, retaining walls to exceed 3 feet height (maximum 5 feet height), corral, equestrian riding area; and other equestrian improvements. Accordingly, the Project qualifies for the exemption pursuant to Section 15303. Further, no exceptions to the exemption apply; there is no reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment, due to unusual circumstances. Much of the site has already been graded and developed. Section 5. Site Plan Review. Site Plan Review is required for construction of any new building or structure pursuant to Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC) Section 17.46.020(A). The Project a Site Plan Review to construct new 4,098-square-foot two-story stable, non-exempt grading, and retaining walls to exceed 3-foot height (maximum 5-foot height). With respect to the Site Plan Review for the development, the Planning Commission hereby makes the following findings: A. The Project complies with and is consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan and all requirements of the zoning ordinance. The proposed development is compatible with the General Plan and Zoning ordinance. The proposed structures comply with the General Plan’s land use policy to support retention of the City’s rural and equestrian character. The two-story stable, riding ring, corral, and other equestrian amenities will comply with the development standards in the Rolling Hills Municipal Code. The project is consistent with the Land Use Element Policy 1.1 as it will not change the lot size and is consistent with Land Use Element Goal 2 which aims to accommodate development that is compatible with and complements existing land uses. Here the project is compatible with existing properties in the same zone having equestrian uses. The Project complies with all of the development standards in the Rolling Hills Municipal Code. Although the proposed 50% disturbed area will exceed the maximum permitted 40% by 10%, the proposed grading for the equestrian use will promote the rural, equestrian aesthetic of Rolling Hills. The total grading for the front of the two-story stable, 10-foot-wide stable access apron and driveway, two run-in sheds located at the southeast corner of the parcel, and retaining walls is 460 cubic yards that will be balanced on site with exception to 36 cubic yards of import, which is part of the variance request. The southeastern corner of the stable includes a stairway that descends from the upper level to the lower level of the stable. The maximum 5-foot-high 261 3 Resolution No. 2024-__ (ZC 24-016) 1 Morgan Lane (HU) walls located along the driveway and stairs comply with and are consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan and all requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. B. The project substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage. Lot coverage requirements are regarded as maximums, and the actual amount of lot coverage permitted depends upon the existing buildable area of the lot. The topography and the configuration of the lot have been considered, and the project will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to adjacent uses, buildings, or structures; the project is utilizing the north area of the lot to develop the stable and corral with minimal grading. The project will be on an existing building pad which enables project elements to be the least intrusive to surrounding properties. Further, the project will be a sufficient distance from nearby residences so views and privacy of surrounding neighbors will not be impacted. The lot has an existing building pad with 42% coverage. The lot has an existing disturbed area of 47.8%, and the proposed disturbed area is 2.2% for a total disturbed area of 50%, with the remaining area either landscaped or left in a natural state. C. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences. 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 stables, equestrian riding rings, and corrals in the vicinity of said lot. The development plan takes into consideration the visibility of the project from Morgan Lane. Portions of the lot will be left undeveloped and covered with vegetation. D. The project preserves and integrates into the site design, to the greatest extent possible, existing topographic features of the site, including surrounding native vegetation, mature trees, drainage courses and land forms (such as hillsides and knolls). There will be no significant changes to the overall drainage features on the lot. The proposed project is located on an existing building pad. There will be minimal impact to site design, vegetation, and mature trees. Drainage will not change and will follow the natural drainage courses of the lot. E. Grading has been designed to follow natural contours of the site and to minimize the amount of grading required to create the building area. Grading will be balanced on site, and dirt will be imported. The project has been designed to follow natural contours of the site and minimize grading. The proposed grading is 194 cubic yards of cut, 266 cubic yards of fill, for a total of 460 cubic yards of grading. A variance is requested for import of 36 cubic yards. 262 4 Resolution No. 2024-__ (ZC 24-016) 1 Morgan Lane (HU) F. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, unless such flow is redirected into an existing drainage course. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, unless such flow is redirected into an existing drainage course. G. The project preserves surrounding native vegetation and mature trees and supplements these elements with drought-tolerant landscaping which is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community, and landscaping provides a buffer or transition area between private and public areas. Surrounding native vegetation and mature trees will not be affected or will be replaced. The vegetation located in the front area will be removed for the construction the new decomposed granite 10-foot-wide stable access road. The development will be considerate of the environment and will enhance the rural character of the community. As such, the rural character of the community is maintained and privacy is maintained with neighbors. H. The project is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles. There is a new 10-foot-wide driveway accessible from Morgan Lane to gain access to the proposed stable. It will be located in the northeastern corner of the property and made of decomposed granite (DG). The new driveway apron was approved by the Traffic Commission on May 30, 2024. The new driveway will lead to the upper level of the proposed stable used for hay storage and a tack room. The lower level of the stable and arena are accessible from the bridle trail located in the northern portion of the property. The Rolling Hills Community Association (RHCA) has granted the owner use of the bridle trail along the northern property line for stable access and emergency access. I. The project conforms to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Project is exempt from the CEQA Guidelines pursuant to Section 15303, Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), which exempts the construction and location of a limited number of new, small facilities or structures, including single family residence and accessory structures, including but not limited to garages, carports, patios, swimming pools and fences. Here, the Project includes construction of a new stable, non-exempt grading, retaining walls to exceed 3 feet height (maximum 5 feet height), corral, equestrian riding area; and other equestrian improvements. Accordingly, the Project qualifies for the exemption pursuant to Section 15303. Further, no exceptions to the exemption apply; there is no reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. Much of the site has already been graded and developed. Section 6. Conditional Use Permits. Section 17.16.040(A)(5) of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC) permits approvals of an equestrian riding arena, construction of a new stable that exceeds 200 square feet, and corral that exceeds 550 square feet are subject to the 263 5 Resolution No. 2024-__ (ZC 24-016) 1 Morgan Lane (HU) conditions in Section 17.16.210(A). With respect to the Conditional Use Permits, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. That the proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan. The granting of Conditional Use Permits for the Project is consistent with the purposes and objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan because the use is consistent with similar uses in the community, and meets all the applicable code development standards for such use. The property is adequately sized to accommodate such use. The two-story stable is a total of 4,038 square feet. The proposed use is appropriately located in that it will be sufficiently separated from nearby structures used for habitation or containing sleeping quarters. Development would be constructed in furtherance of the General Plan goal of promoting and encouraging equestrian uses. The new riding ring arena is proposed to be located on the property so that it will not be in close proximity to the existing residence or other residences in the area. All other proposed appurtenant structures are common amenities in Rolling Hills. B. The nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures have been considered, and that the use will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, building or structures. 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 uses are of sufficient distance from nearby residences so as to not impact the view or privacy of surrounding properties. Development will be constructed on portions of the Property that are already graded and developed. Development will be screened and will not impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors. There is a path designated for pedestrian and equestrian use that runs from the first floor of the stable and proposed riding ring arena to the residence. There is a 10-foot-wide driveway apron accessible from Morgan Lane to gain access to the proposed stable. C. That the site for the proposed conditional use is of adequate size and shape to accommodate the use and buildings proposed. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain, and surrounding residences because the proposed uses comply with the low-profile residential development pattern of the community and areas will remain open and unobstructed. The lot is sufficient to accommodate the proposed development. D. That the proposed conditional use complies with all applicable development standards of the zone district. The proposed conditional uses comply with all applicable development standards of the zone district, including the specified conditions for a stable, corral, and riding ring arena identified in Section 17.16.210(A) of the Zoning Ordinance. 264 6 Resolution No. 2024-__ (ZC 24-016) 1 Morgan Lane (HU) E. That the proposed use is consistent with the portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. 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. F. That the proposed conditional use observes the spirit and intent of this title. The proposed development meets the spirit and intent of this title in that it is a residential amenity enjoyed by other properties in the City. The use is consistent with the residential character of the City. Section 6. Variance Findings. Section 17.38.050 sets forth the required findings for granting Variances for construction of stable in the front yard, corral in front and side yard, import of dirt, and to exceed the maximum 40% disturbed area With respect to this request for Variances, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same vicinity and zone. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same vicinity and zone is given the size and steepness of the site, it is difficult for the applicant to comply with the maximum 40% disturbance because the entire east portion of the property slopes down from Morgan Lane. The existing corral located at the south portion of the property encroaches into the front yard and side setbacks. However, these areas are already developed and disturbed, and ideal for equestrian uses. The import of dirt is required to fill northeast corner of the new decomposed granite path and northeast section of the stable, stairs, and walls. B. That such variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights possessed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone but which is denied the property in question. Granting the requested variances are necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of property rights on the property and the Project is necessary for the preservation of the Applicant’s property right. The placement of the stable is best location to accommodate the equestrian uses because there is an existing 7,030-square-foot recreational sports court that will be converted into a 5,597-square-foot riding arena, and the building pad area is already developed. Stables larger than 200 square feet are an amenity enjoyed by many property owners in the City. The applicant is requesting an approval for the existing corral in the front yard, front setback, and side setback. The variance requests are necessary for preservation and enjoyment of property rights consistent with other properties in the same vicinity and zone. There are other properties in the community that have equestrian uses in the front yard. 265 7 Resolution No. 2024-__ (ZC 24-016) 1 Morgan Lane (HU) Construction of the stable will result in a minor increase in lot coverage and having a stable, riding ring, and corral on-site is a property right enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity. C. That the granting of such variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. Granting variances for the Project will not be materially detrimental to public welfare or injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity in that the proposed development will comply with the required building code, will not have adverse visual impact to adjacent properties and is in keeping with the desired equestrian and rural aesthetic of Rolling Hills. D. That in granting the variance, the spirit and intent of this title will be observed. The granting of the variance will allow for a development that is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the proposed project is visually harmonious with adjacent properties and in scale with adjacent residential development. The lot is sufficient to accommodate the proposed use. E. That the variance does not grant special privilege to the applicant. The variance does not grant special privilege to the applicant in that the proposed addition is similar in character and scale with existing residential development and the applicant will have the opportunity to enjoy the same amenities enjoyed by other residents in the community. In the past the City has granted approval for large stables and corrals in the front yard, front setbacks, and side setbacks. F. That 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. Granting a variance for the project will be consistent with the applicable portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan related to siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. The project site is not listed on the current State of California Hazardous Waste and Substances Sites List. The proposed project would not constitute a hazardous waste facility. G. That the variance request is consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills. Approvals granting the variance to allow encroachments into the front and rear yard setbacks will be consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills, which encourages residential and equestrian uses.

Please accept our comments concerning the driveway intended to service the proposed new barn facilities. The marked area is directly across from our driveway and we are concerned that the large trucks supplying the hay and feed for the new barn will create a dangerous condition. The steep elevation change of the proposed driveway will make ascending traffic very difficult to see, particularly at dusk or nightfall. Why create this potential problem when a possible solution is at hand? Use of the easement road immediately north and adjacent to 1 Morgan Lane could be used for both the re-supply of the two story barn and the servicing and movement of the horses. The easement is not opposite any neighborhood driveway and has ample width for these operations. Also, the contour plot of 1 Morgan Lane favors the access to the second story of the barn from the easement road. The grade is considerably less severe for heavy trucks than the proposed location and loss of control should not be an issue. Additionally, the cost savings and the site disturbed area reduction should be considerable. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration. Sincerely, Michael Gray Michael Gray 6.10.24 279 Memorandum TO: John Signo, AICP Director of Planning and Community Services FROM: Vanessa Munoz PE, TE, City Traffic Engineer DATE: March 24, 2024 SUBJECT: 1 Morgan Lane Driveway This memorandum is in response to the request by the city to review and provide input on the proposed driveway improvements submitted by the residents of 1 Morgan Lane. The project will convert an existing sports court to an arena and rear pasture with one new stable. The resident is proposing a 10-foot-wide decomposed granite driveway to access the second story of the proposed stables used for hay storage and tack room. I performed a visual review of the existing conditions utilizing photos of the proposed driveway and will perform a field review of the proposed driveway location prior to the traffic commission to verify the proposed conditions. Based on visual observations and engineering judgement, the proposed driveway location and width is acceptable. 280 A-1PLANNING ARCHTECTURE DEVELOPMENTREVISIONS: :BY JOB NO: DATE: DRAWN SHEET TITLE:SITE PLAN, VICINITY MAP 2800 28th ST # 160 SANTA MONICA, CA 90405 ENGINEERING PH: (310)452-6500 FAX: (310)452-7470 PH: (310)452-5444 BRIAN NOTEWARE AIA ARCHITECT INC.

Date: 06/18/2024 TO:HONORABLE CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION FROM:JOHN SIGNO, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING & COMMUNITY SERVICES THRU:KARINA BAÑALES, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: ZONING CASE NO. 24-017: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A DETACHED PERGOLA THAT EXCEEDS 200 SQUARE FEET; AND VARIANCES FOR A NEW SWIMMING POOL AND PERGOLA TO ENCROACH INTO THE FRONT YARD, AND POOL EQUIPMENT TO ENCROACH INTO THE SIDE YARD SETBACK LOCATED AT 9 OUTRIDER ROAD, ROLLING HILLS, CA 90274, AND FINDING THE PROJECT CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (LOT 92-B-EF) (SONSTEIN) DATE:June 18, 2024 BACKGROUND: Zoning, Location, and Lot Description The property is in accordance with Section 17.24.025 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC) Dwelling units non-conforming due to smaller lots, the property has a lot area that is less than 1.25 acres. The property is zoned RAS-1 and has a net lot area of 30,313 square feet (0.69 acres). The RHMC Section 17.16.060(A) indicates that properties less than an acre are to be considered an acre (43,560 square feet). The lot is developed with a 2,952 square-foot single family residence, 393 square-foot attached garage, 224 square foot attached covered porches, and 330 SF trellis. The house was built in 1953. There are two existing building pads on site with a 20-30-foot difference in elevation. The existing residence, garage and proposed project area are located on the first lower pad (10,200 square feet), and the secondary building pad (1,220 square feet) is located on the rear approximately 20 feet above the first building pad. The 1,000 square foot equestrian set aside area is located on the secondary pad. The existing topography of the project site slopes up approximately 93-feet from Outrider Road to the highest portion of the back of the lot. There is a 30-foot front roadway easement 294 on Outrider Road, and 30-foot rear roadway easement on Eastfield Drive. The lot has a depth of 260 feet in length and width of 141 feet. Previous Projects On April 4, 2020 there was an approval for an Over the Counter (OTC) re-roof. On April 8, 2022 there was an approval for an Administrative Review project for a residential addition with an enclosure of a covered porch and interior remodel. On April 24, 2024, there was an approval for an Over the Counter (OTC) project for solar panels. DISCUSSION: Applicant Request On February 21, 2024, an application was filed by Jason Briggs of Paradise Pool and Spa, on behalf of the Greg Sonstein, the property owner of 9 Outrider Road. The applicant is proposing to build: a 450-square-foot swimming pool in the front yard, and a 30-square-foot pool equipment attached to the east front corner of the existing house that will encroach into the side setback. On May 4, 2023 the property owner Greg Sonstein submitted a Conditional Use Permit application for an as-built 330-square-foot pergola (unpermitted) to exceed 200 square feet. The pergola is located in the front yard, is also part of the Variance approval. See Attachments 5 and 6 for the plans, property survey, and civil survey. Conditional Use Permit On May 23, 2024, staff visited the site to review the proposed pool location. Upon the site visit, staff noticed there was an unpermitted detached pergola located on the existing patio in the front yard. There are no recent or past records of any City, Building & Safety (B&S), or Rolling Hills Community Association (RHCA) permit approvals for the structure. The applicant decided to add the as-built pergola to the existing Variance application for the new swimming pool and pool equipment project. On June 4, 2024, the property owner Mr. Greg Sonstein submitted a Conditional Use Permit for the 330-square-foot as-built pergola (unpermitted). The pergola requires a variance approval because it encroaches into the front yard. The pergola is 18 feet by 18 feet and 9.5 feet in height Variances The Rolling Hills Municipal Code requires a Variance application and approval for: the construction of the new swimming pool in the front yard and a 30-square-foot pool equipment to encroach 8 feet into the 10-foot side yard setback. The pool equipment will be attached to the front corner of the house. The as-built pergola is located on an existing patio in the front yard and requires a Variance. The overall Project includes three items subject to Discretionary Review: Variances for the construction of the swimming pool in the front yard, as-built pergola in the front yard, and the pool equipment to encroach into the side setback. The other item that is part of the Ministerial Review include the total 450-square-foot swimming pool and 85 cubic yards of exempt grading export. 295 Structures in the front yard and in the side yard setback The current house is oriented to open into the front yard, where the proposed pool is going to be located. There are other locations on site for the proposed uses, however, the other locations are on separate building pads located behind the main house and are on much higher elevations. There is no other viable and safe location for the pool on the primary pad due to the existing topography of the subject site. The proposed swimming pool location currently is an existing grass area that is already flat and disturbed, and this is the best location because there is already an existing patio with existing outdoor amenities. The front yard also has a view that overlooks the Long Beach Port and beaches. There are several residences on the westside of Outrider Road have swimming pools in the front yards (3 Outrider Road, 11 Outrider Road, 13 Outrider Road). As for the pool equipment, the existing east portion of the residence encroaches 2 feet into the 10-foot side setback. The pool equipment will be attached to the attached to the northeast front corner of the house, and this is the best location because there is an existing electrical panel. The pool equipment area will be enclosed with maximum 3-foot-high walls and screened with landscaping. Setbacks The property has a net lot size of 30,313 square feet and is in accordance with Section 17.24.025(A) of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC) Dwelling units non-conforming due to smaller lots, the property has a lot area that is less than 1.25 acres. The following reduced setback limits shall apply to properties in the RAS-1 zoning district having a lot area of 1.25 acres or less, excluding roadway easement(s), and developed with single-family dwelling structures existing as of May 23, 2012, that have nonconforming setbacks, subject to the conditions set forth in subsection 17.24.025.A(2) that in no place shall the front yard setback line be less than thirty feet from the front roadway easement line. RHMC 17.24.045.A(2) side yard setback line may be the footprint of the existing legally permitted residence, except that in no place shall the side yard setback line be less than ten feet from the side yard property line. Lot Coverage and Building Pad Coverage The Project complies with the Development Standards in the Rolling Hills Municipal Zoning Code. The existing structural coverage is 3,598 square feet or 11.86%, and the project proposes a net of 1,260 square feet or 4.16%, for a total of 4,854 square feet or 16.00%. This is still under the maximum allowed 20% structural coverage. The existing flatwork coverage is 5,709 square feet or 18.83%. This is over the maximum allowable 15% flatwork coverage. The total overall structural and flatwork coverage will result in 10,567 square feet or 34.86%, which is still well under the maximum allowed 35% structural and flatwork coverage. See Attachment 2 for more details. Building Pad #1 is a total of 10,200 square feet. The existing Building Pad #1 Coverage with deductions is 3,476 square feet or 27.6%, and with an increase of 810 square feet or .07%, and the total proposed Building Pad Coverage with deductions is 4,286 square feet or 42.0%, this exceeds the maximum 30% guideline by 12.0%. Building Pad #2 is a total of 1,220 square feet. The existing Building Pad #2 Coverage with deductions is 0 square feet or 0.0%, with an increase of 450 square feet or 36%. The total proposed Building Pad Coverage with deductions is 450 square-feet or 36%. This exceeds the 296 30% maximum guideline by 6%. Environmental Review The proposed project has been determined to not have a significant effect on the environment and is categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA pursuant to Section 15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) of the CEQA Guidelines. Public Noticing and Correspondence Notification of the development and Planning Commission meeting were published in the Daily Breeze on June 8, 2024, and letters were mailed to residents within a 1,000 ft radius from the development on June 6, 2024 (see Attachment 1). On June 10, 2024, staff received an email from Roy Cootes (residents of 42 Eastfield Drive). He expressed his concerns regarding the location of the pergola potentially blocking their view of the harbor. Staff informed Mr. Cootes that the pergola has already been built, and Mr. Cootes confirmed that his view is not blocked (see Attachment 4). FISCAL IMPACT: None. RECOMMENDATION: Open the public hearing, take public testimony, close the public hearing, discuss the proposed project, and provide direction to staff and applicants. In the event the Planning Commission decides to approve the project, a draft resolution is included as Attachment 3, entitled: "A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING APPROVAL OF ZONING CASE NO. 24-017 FOR A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A DETACHED PERGOLA THAT EXCEEDS 200 SQUARE FEET; AND VARIANCES FOR A NEW SWIMMING POOL AND PERGOLA TO ENCROACH INTO THE FRONT YARD, AND POOL EQUIPMENT TO ENCROACH INTO THE SIDE YARD SETBACK LOCATED AT 9 OUTRIDER ROAD, ROLLING HILLS, CA 90274, AND FINDING THE PROJECT CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (LOT 92-B-EF) (SONSTEIN)."

On February 21, 2024, the applicant, Jason Briggs of Paradise Pools, on behalf of the property owner Greg Sonstein, submitted a variance application for the encroachment of a new swimming pool in the front yard, and a variance for the pool equipment to encroach into the side yard setback. The project is for a new 450- square-foot swimming pool, 30-square-foot pool equipment, and 85 cubic yards of exempt grading export. On May 4, 2023 the property owner Greg Sonstein submitted a Conditional Use Permit application for an as-built 256 square foot pergola (unpermitted) to exceed 200 square feet. The pergola is located in the front yard, is also part of the Variance approval. Section 2. The Planning Commission considered this item at a duly noticed public hearing on June 18, 2024. The Planning Commission reviewed and considered the staff report, reviewed and considered the Applicant’s request, public testimony, and other information on the record. Section 3. The applicant was notified of the public hearing in writing by first class mail. Neighbors within 1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearings and a notice was published in the Daily Breeze on June 8, 2024. Evidence was heard and presented from all persons interested in affecting said proposal and from members of the City staff and the Planning Commission having reviewed, analyzed and studied said proposal. The applicant was in attendance at the hearing. Section 4. The Project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines pursuant to Section 15303, Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), which exempts the construction and location of a limited number of new, small facilities or structures, including accessory structures, including but not limited to garages, carports, patios, swimming pools and fences. Here, the proposed Project is for a new swimming pool, pool equipment, and grading export. Accordingly, the Project qualifies for the exemption pursuant to Section 15303. Further, no exceptions to the exemption apply; there is no reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. The site has already been graded and there are existing structures are on site. 301 Resolution No. 2024-__ (ZC 24-017) 9 Outrider Road (Sonstein) 2 Section 5. The gross lot area is 0.69 acres (30,313 square feet) in the RAS-1 zoning district. For development purposes, the net lot area, which excludes the roadway easements and 10 feet along the property lines, is 0.69 acres (30,313 square feet). For purposes of calculating net lot area, Rolling Hills Municipal Code (RHMC) Section 17.16.060(A) indicates that properties less than an acre are to be considered an acre (43,560 square feet). There are two building pads: (1) the main residential pad which is 10,200 square feet; and (2) the barn pad for the future set aside area which is 1,220 square feet. The property is developed with a 2,952-square-foot residence with a 393- square-foot attached garage, 224 square feet covered porches, a 26-square-foot breezeway and 256-square foot pergola (unpermitted). Section 6. Conditional Use Permit Findings. RHMC Section 17.16.040(A)(3) requires a Conditional Use Permit for a structure that exceeds 200 square feet. The Applicant is proposing a 256 square-foot pergola. Given the foregoing, in accordance with RHMC Section 17.42.050, the Planning Commission makes the following findings: A. That the proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan. The granting of a Conditional Use Permit for the pergola is consistent with the purposes and objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan because the use is consistent with similar uses in the community, and meets all the applicable code development standards for such use. The Project is compatible with existing land uses as other properties in the same zone have a pergola. The Project is consistent with Open Space and Conservation Element Goal 2, which aims for expanded opportunities for outdoor recreation. B. That the nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures have been considered, and that the use will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, building or structures. 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 existing detached pergola is already on the existing patio located in the front yard. C. That the site for the proposed conditional use is of adequate size and shape to accommodate the uses and buildings proposed. The proposed conditional use complies with all applicable development standards in the RAS-2 Zone. The net lot area is 0.69 acres and is adequate to support the proposed use. The pergola is already existing; roofing will cover the outdoor patio furniture and will not exceed the maximum allowable 800 square feet maximum. D. That the proposed conditional use complies with all applicable development standards of the zone district. 302 Resolution No. 2024-__ (ZC 24-017) 9 Outrider Road (Sonstein) 3 That the proposed conditional use complies with all applicable development standards of the RAS-2 Zone, districts, including size, setbacks, and location. The pergola is located in the front yard, and is part of the variance approval. That the proposed use is consistent with the portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. That the proposed use is consistent with the portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and 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. E. That the proposed conditional use observes the spirit and intent of this title. The pergola allows the Applicant the ability to enjoy rights enjoyed by other residents in the City. The proposed use is consistent with the residential character of the City. Section 7. The Rolling Hills Municipal Code requires a Variance for structures in the front yard and side yard setbacks. The project includes a new swimming pool and as- built pergola (unpermitted) in the front yard and pool equipment encroaching into the side yard setback. The Planning Commission makes the following findings: Chapter 17.38 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code permits approval of a variance from the standards and requirements of the Zoning Ordinance when exceptional or extraordinary circumstances applicable to the property and not applicable to other similar properties in the same zone prevent the owner from making use of a parcel of property to the same extent enjoyed by similar properties in the same vicinity. With respect to this request, and pursuant to Rolling Hills Municipal Code section 17.38.050, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same vicinity and zone. 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 in the same zone because the 0.69-acre size of the lot is smaller than most in the community, the main residence sets at the top of a slope, the parcel has two roadway easements Outrider Road (front) and Eastfield drive (rear), and the configuration of the existing lot makes it to where the font yard is technically the back yard. The existing pergola is located in the front yard, located out of the setbacks. The encroachment of the pool equipment is considered minimal given the south side residence already encroaches 2 feet into the required 10-foot side yard setback. The pool equipment will be attached to southside of the main residence. B. That such variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights possessed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone but which is denied the property in question. 303 Resolution No. 2024-__ (ZC 24-017) 9 Outrider Road (Sonstein) 4 Strict application of the Zoning Ordinance would deprive the Applicants of the right and benefits enjoyed by similarly situated properties in the same vicinity and zone. The placement of the swimming pool in the front yard and the pool equipment attached to the residence encroaching into the side setback is best location to accommodate the recreation use because there is an existing residence and the building pad is already developed. The proposed location for the swimming pool is already flat and disturbed. The pergola is already on an existing patio, and other properties enjoy the benefits of pergola in the same vicinity and zone. C. That the granting of such variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. 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. The location of the swimming pool and pergola in the front yard, along with the pool equipment in the side setback will protect the undeveloped portion of the property and will minimize further disturbance of the site. The project will be constructed in accordance with the adopted Building Codes. D. That in granting the variance, the spirit and intent of this title will be observed. In granting the variance, the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code will be observed the proposed swimming pool and pergola does not prevent anyone from enjoying their property rights, the improvements are visually harmonious with adjacent properties and in scale with adjacent residential development. E. That the variance does not grant special privilege to the applicant. The variance does not grant any special privilege(s) to the applicant. The proposed location of the swimming pool, pergola, and pool equipment allow the applicants to enjoy the same rights as other residents of the community. In the past the City has granted approval for swimming pools on smaller lots F. That 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. 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 because there are no hazardous waste facilities involved. G. That the variance request is consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills. 304 Resolution No. 2024-__ (ZC 24-017) 9 Outrider Road (Sonstein) 5 The variance request is consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills. Approvals granting the variance to allow the swimming pool and pergola to encroach into the front yard, along with the pool equipment to encroach into the side setback will be consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills, which encourages recreational uses.

We are the Cootes' at 42 Eastfield Dr. Next door to #9 Outrider. We have a question as to where the Pergola would be placed on what side of the pool amd it's height we are worried if on their driveway side it may block our view of the harbor. I have attached a pictire from our back window of our home and you can see their roofline in the picture if relates to the Pergola and it's height. 323 4 Thanks you Roy Cootes 324 'Clrad.ise -Po !. av,,,d spa CSl.B 1k 926847 C-SJ Sonstein Residence: 9 Outrider Rd, Rolling Hills, CA 9027 4 ----------- ' ----------- r -- ' {El Dtiyewoy ---- , '(, ' ' -�·_.·,, , "' '", ' o-l, :\\..\.S\'. �-' r ' Easement Setback ' ., 'r ' ' , ' --_ r r, , NORTH (E)Property line Floating Alarm Drowning Protection: � a· Q_ � Q_ )> CY 0 0 0 ro O' 0 ro II( " �" CT w 0 0 cs ----"' N • G) II ---N --.I>, JO' Setback r ' ' ' r I I I I 1 I • I I I (E} Pcltio/Concrete I ' I t I I I I I I • I I I I ----- �"" : �� � ������-------------;::-- ,,, f r r (E)Driveway ' ' ' (NJ Pool Steps r [E) House {E) Patio/Concrete �i:519 r . r {NI 15' x 30' Pool 501 Deplh 554 Deplh, 3'6" 100 3 Door Alarms.
