APPROVE A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING A TWO-YEAR TIME EXTENSION

BACKGROUND:
On March 15, 2022, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 2022-03 granting
approval for Zoning Case No. 21-29 for: (1) Conditional Use Permit for a s table greater than
200 square feet and a corral that is greater than 550 square feet in size; and (2) Variances for
a new 934-square-foot stable and an existing 3,500-square-foot corral that will encroach into
the required side and rear yard setbacks and exceed the maximum 35% lot coverage.
The applicant requested approval of a Conditional Use Permit for a proposed 934-square-foot
stable and existing 3,500-square-foot corral. The corral was constructed in the 1970s and was
used as a community riding ring. The easement for the riding ring has been removed;
however, the corral is still intact. The new stable and corral will be situated approximately 8-
feet below the existing tennis court on gradually sloping area in the rear portion of the
property. The applicant also requested approval of a variance to encroach into the required
side and rear yard setbacks and exceed the maximum 35% lot coverage.
18
Zoning, Land Size and Existing Conditions
The property located at 29 Crest Road West is zoned RAS-2 and has a net lot area of 59,850
square feet (1.37 acres). The lot is developed with a 5,413-square-foot single-family residence
and a 1,125-square-foot garage. The project site slopes downward from the residence to the
rear of the lot. There is a 14-foot grade difference from the residence and pool area to the
proposed stable and corral. The existing residence, garage and pool are located on the first
pad (34,000 square feet) which is the upper portion of the lot located near Crest Road West,
the second pad (13,600 square feet) contains a tennis court; the third pad (9,200 square feet)
is located in the rear of the property and is developed with two freestanding 12-foot-high
wooden chicken coops (to be demolished) and a 3,500-square-foot corral.
Minor Modification
On February 5, 2024, the applicant submitted a time extension request and minor modification
to simplify the barn design to save cost. The new design uses pre-fabricated components
which are less expensive. The location of the stable is the same, but the size was slightly
decreased from 934 square feet to 900 square feet and the height was reduced by a foot from
14'6" to 13'6". The Rolling Hills Community Association (RHCA) granted approval the same
day with a condition requiring Architectural Committee approval for materials. City staff
granted Administrative Approval of the modification the following day.
DISCUSSION:
On February 5, 2024, an application was duly filed by Mr. Patrick Perrin and Donna Perrin
(“Applicants”), with respect to real property located at 29 Crest Road West requesting a two-
year time extension for Zoning Case No. 21-29 to comply with the requirements of Resolution
No. 2022-03 and to commence construction of the approved project. The Applicants are
requesting the extension due to delays caused by the pandemic and changes to the stable
design.
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 approval, the Planning Commission must find that the
expiration of the approval 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 would impose undue hardship on the owner because the
delays have been due in part to the COVID pandemic and other circumstances. 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 the Planning Commission adopt these findings and approve the attached
Resolution No. 2024-02 to grant the extension. If granted, the project would expire on March
15, 2026.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
19
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recom mended that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2024-02 granting a
two-year extension, and receive and file a minor modification approved administratively.

RESOLUTION NO. 2024-02
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ROLLING HILLS GRANTING A TWO-YEAR TIME EXTENSION FOR
PREVIOUSLY APPROVED ZONING CASE NO. 21-29 FOR A
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND A VARIANCE TO ALLOW A NEW
STABLE AND EXISTING CORRAL TO BE LOCATED WITHIN THE
REAR AND SIDE YARD SETBACKS AND EXCEED THE LOT
COVERAGE LOCATED AT 29 CREST ROAD WEST, ROLLING HILLS,
CA 90274, AND FINDING THE PROJECT CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT
FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (LOT 174-
C-2-MS) (PERRIN)
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS DOES
HEREBY FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. An application was duly filed by Patrick and Donna Perrin,
("Applicants"), with respect to real property located at 29 Crest Road West requesting a two-
year time extension to comply with the requirements of Resolution No. 2022-03 to commence
construction of the approved project.
Section 2. The Commission approved the project adopting Resolution No. 2022-03
at a meeting on March 15, 2022. The Applicants are requesting a two-year extension be
granted due to additional time needed to complete the review and plan check process. A
minor modification (Modification No.1) was administratively approved on February 6, 2024, to
reduce the stable size, simplify the stable design, and save costs.
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 the Applicants have been seeking approvals from Building
Services and such approvals were delayed by the COVID pandemic and changes under
Modification No. 1. 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. 2022-03, dated March 15, 2022, to read
as follows:
A. The Conditional Use Permit and Variance approval shall expire within four
years from the effective date of approval of Resolution No. 2022-03. No further
extension shall be granted as required by Sections 17.42.070 and 17.38.070 of the
RHMC.
Section 5. Except as herein amended, the provisions and conditions of Resolution
No. 2022-03 shall continue to be in full force and effect.

ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (LOT 11-B-CH) (LUKIC)
DATE:March 19, 2024
BACKGROUND:
This item is continued from the Planning Commission meeting on January 16, 2024. That
morning, the Planning Commission held a public meeting field trip at 4 Spur Lane. The
Planning Commissioners, Staff, and attendees viewed the silhouettes of the proposed project.
The proposed project was presented later that night at the evening Planning Commission
Meeting at 6:30 p.m. The Planning Commissioners voted 3-0 (2 Commissioners were absent)
to continue the item to the next meeting. The Planning Commission directed staff to work with
the applicant on revising the plans to decrease the amount of grading for the Project. The
Planning Commission directed the applicants to bring the project back when the relocated
driveway and apron in the relocated easements were approved by the Rolling Hills Community
Association (RHCA).
The project was not presented at the February 19, 2024 Planning Commission meeting
because the applicant needed more time to address the issues regarding the barn location on
Cinchring, secondary stable driveway and access on Cinchring Road, grading, and approval
of the relocated driveway from the northeast to the northwest portion of the driveway. It was
critical for the approval of relocated driveway in the RHCA easement, because if it was denied,
then the entire project would have to be redesigned.
45
On February 22, 2024, the RHCA approved the relocation of the driveway and apron on Spur
Lane. The applicants were granted access to use the RHCA easement for the new driveway
and apron.
On March 7, 2024, the project was re-noticed for the March 19, 2024 Planning Commission
morning Field Trip and Public Hearing.
Zoning, Location, and Lot Description
The property located at 4 Spur Lane is zoned RAS-1 and has a net lot area of 1.08 acre
(47,063 square feet). Currently, there is only one building pad on the property developed with
a 3,525-square-foot single-family residence and 536-square-foot attached garage. The
residence was built in 1951 and is currently vacant. In 1962, the Planning Commission
approved a variance for an addition.
The existing residence is located 14 feet from the front roadway easement, 25 feet from the
west side property line, and 24 from the east side property line. The rear property line is
located downslope of the building pad over 288 feet to the south. There is an existing 25-foot
RHCA easement that extends along the west and south property lines. There is s 20-foot road
easement located at the north of the parcel on Spur Lane, and 30-foot road easement at the
southeast corner of the parcel on Cinchring Road. There is one building pad and the existing
topography of the project site slopes down approximately 300 feet from the rear elevation to
the lowest portion of the lot.
Applicant Request
On August 24, 2023, an application was filed by the applicant, Luis De Moraes, on behalf of
the property owners Jennifer and Nebojsa Lukic to request a site plan review to demolish the
existing residence and attached garage and construct a new 4,870-square-foot single-family
residence and 967-square-foot garage with a new driveway and apron.
The proposed project includes a 1,010-square-foot swimming pool, 480-square-feet of
attached covered porches, 168-square-foot pavilion, 166-square-foot barbecue, maximum
five-foot high retaining walls, 123-square-foot service yard, hardscape, landscape, and other
amenities. The proposed project will expand the existing residential building pad for the new
swimming pool and amenities, and includes a new walkway/stairway that will descend down
the slope to the new pavilion. The project will relocate the existing driveway on Spur Lane from
the northeast side to the northwest side of the property within an easement management by
the Rolling Hills Community Association (RHCA). The new garage will be located at the
northeast portion of the parcel and oriented toward the side property line requiring a curved
driveway that slopes downward from the street. the driveway will be 22 feet wide maximum
with a 29-foot-wide apron.
The project will expand the building pad from 7,260 square feet to 12,152 square feet by
extending the southern portion of the existing building pad approximately 90 feet.
Traffic Commission Review of Driveways
The applicant proposed two new driveways: (1) main driveway on Spur Lane and (2)
secondary driveway to a stable located on Cinchring Road. On December 11, 2023, the Traffic
Commission held a meeting and the Traffic Engineer recommended approval of the main
driveway but not the secondary driveway due to safety and drainage concerns. The secondary
driveway is on a sharp curve with existing guardrails that would have to be removed or
46
relocated. The Traffic Commission voted 4-0 to recommend approval to the City Council of the
main driveway on Spur Lane but not the secondary driveway for the stable on Cinchring Road.
The applicants at this time have decided to remove the secondary access, barn, and driveway
from Cinchring Road form the project approval.
On February 22, 2024, RHCA approved the relocation of the driveway and apron on Spur
Lane. The applicants were granted access to use the RHCA easement for the new driveway
and apron on Spur Lane.
DISCUSSION:
Since the January 16th Planning Commission meeting, the applicants have revised the project
and RHCA has granted approval for the relocated driveway and apron in the easement. The
revised project is summarized as follows:
1. Raised pad approximately 1 foot and 6 inches
2. Reduced disturbed area by 2,090 sq.ft. Current proposed 29,880 sq.ft. (63.49%) vs.
31,970 sq.ft.(67.9%) previously.
3. Reduced total grading by 2,850 cubic yards. Current total grading proposed: 4,750 cy now
vs. 7600 cy previously.
4. Moved entire building northeast (towards Spur Lane) by 7 feet and 7 inchesÂ.
5. Increased garage area by 302 sq.ft.
6. Extended garage length by 11 feet and 6 inchesÂ, which increased total plate height
length 8 feet and 6 inches or lower by 4%.
7. Raised entre building by 1 foot and 6 inches.
8. Raised garage finished floor elevation by 6 feetÂ.
9. Removed pavilion.
10. Removed barn, driveway, and driveway approach from Cinchring Road.
Setbacks
The new residence meets the requirements for reduced setbacks on a smaller lot. According
to RHMC Section 17.24.045, reduced setbacks may apply to properties in the RAS-1 zoning
district that have a lot area of 1.25 acres or less, excluding roadway easements. This property
has a lot area of 1.23 acres (excluding roadway easements).
Site Plan Review
The applicants are requesting a Site Plan Review (SPR) to demolish a residence and
construct a new 4,780-square-foot residence, attached 665-square-foot garage, 1,010-square-
foot swimming pool, maximum 5-foot-high retaining walls, 22-foot-wide driveway, and other
improvements.
Non-exempt grading
The applicants are requesting a total of 4,750 cubic yards (CY) of grading, including 2,375 CY
cut and 2,375 CY fill balanced onsite. The 245 CY of excavation for the swimming pool is
exempt and could be exported from the site without relief from the Code. Grading is needed to
expand the existing building pad, and support the new driveway, swimming pool, staiway yard
area, and retaining walls. Included are 640 CY of over-excavation and 880 CY of
recompaction. The grading from the cut for the residence, garage, and driveway will be used
to fill and expand the existing building pad for the swimming pool/spa, deck, and stairs to the
fire pit. The 205 cubic yards of excavation for the swimming pool is exempt and could be
exported, but it will be balanced onsite.
47
Retaining Walls
All of the existing walls on the subject property will be demolished. The project includes two-
and-one-half-foot-high retaining walls along the northwestern portion of the property
supporting the new driveway. A new retaining wall is proposed along the eastern portion of the
residence that extends down to the new stairway and fire pit. The project includes retaining
walls at the southern portion of the residential building pad that will extend from the pavilion,
stairway, fire pit, swimming pool and around to the west portion of residence. The maximum
height of the retaining walls is five feet and the average height is not to exceed two and one-
half feet.
Retaining walls (maximum 3-feet in height) are located north along both sides of the
driveway leading to the garage. The double walls are located at the north portion of the
driveway closer to Spur Lane and there is a single wall on the southside of the driveway
leading to the garage.
Retaining walls located east perimeter of expanded building pad, double wall at the
corner by the outdoor kitchen
Retaining walls located south portion of the expanded building pad, stair way, fire pit,
infinity edge pool, and south east corner of main residence (section max height 5-feet)
Retaining walls located on west side of main residence within the limit of grading.
Variance
The applicant is requesting approval of a variance to exceed the 40% disturbance.
MUNICIPAL CODE COMPLIANCE
Lot Coverage
The existing structural coverage with deductions is 4,115 square feet (SF) or 8.74%. The
proposed structural coverage on the lot will be 3,819 SF or 8.11% of the lot, the total structural
coverage is 7,934 square feet or 16.86%, which is less than the lot coverage limitation of 20%
maximum.
The existing flatwork is 6,670 SF or 14.36%. The total proposed flatwork is -175 SF or -.37%,
for a total flatwork coverage of 6,585 square feet or 13.99%, and this is below the maximum
allowable 15% flatwork coverage.
The proposed total coverage including structures and flatwork will be 14,519 SF or 30.85% of
the lot area, which below the 35% maximum
structural and flatwork coverage.
Building Pad
The existing building pad area (Building Pad 1) is relatively small at 7,260-square-feet, the
RHMC has a 12,000-square-foot building pad area guideline. The enlargement of the building
pad area to 13,380-square-feet, 40-foot expansion, and lowering the pad by 7-feet in depth will
level and even out the lot for the new residence, swimming pool/spa, driveway, and amenities.
The existing building structural coverage is 4,115 square feet or 56.68%, and the project
proposes to add 3,688 square feet or 26.76% building structural coverage, for a total of 7,803
or 53% building structural coverage. The Project exceeds the minimum 30% building pad
coverage guideline by 23% percent.
48
The Project proposes a future building pad (Pad 2) for the future 1,100 square-foot set aside
area. Building Pad #2 has a 1,100 square foot area with a future proposed 450 square foot
stable. The total building pad coverage is 40.91%. This exceeds the maximum 30% Building
pad coverage guideline by 10.91%.
Setbacks
The existing residence encroaches into the 30-foot front setback. The new residence complies
with all of the development standards in the municipal code: 30-foot front setback, 20-foot side
setback, and 50-foot rear setback.
Future 1,000 square foot set aside area
The applicants have proposed a 1,000 square foot (450 stable & 550 corral) set aside area
that located at the south portion of the parcel. The set aside area is accessible from the newly
relocated driveway at the northwest corner of the parcel on Spur Lane. The future stable
access is 10 feet wide and extends 280 feet along the west property line and 20-foot RHCA
easement.
Area of Disturbance
The project site has been previously disturbed due to development of the existing residence.
The existing disturbance is 16,460 SF or 34.97%. The proposed project will add 13,420 SF or
28.51% of disturbance for a total of 29,880 SF, or 63.49% of the net lot area. The applicants
are requesting a variance to exceed the maximum.
Height
The finished height of the proposed new residence is a maximum of 15 feet. The proposed
ridgeline of the new residence will be lower due to the lowering of the existing grade by 7 feet.
Swimming Pool
The proposed swimming pool is 1,010 SF and located behind the proposed residence at the
edge of the extended building pad. The pool will be designed to have an infinity edge in which
water flows into a surge basin. The edge of the pool and building pad will be supported by
retaining walls. Approval of a swimming pool greater than 800 SF requires a discretionary
approval. The applicants have requested an approval of Site Plan Review for the proposed
pool.
Landscaping
A Preliminary Landscape Plan has been included in the plans. There are existing trees front of
the property that are protected and will remain. The project proposes 17,786 SF of existing
landscaping to be altered (re-landscaped) and 39,883 SF of new areas to be landscaped. The
Plan is being reviewed by the City’s landscape consultant for compliance with water efficiency
requirements. The Planning Commission should consider if conditions are necessary to limit
the height of trees to protect neighboring views.
Environmental Review
The proposed project has been determined to not have a significant effect on the environment
49
and is categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA pursuant to Section 15303 (New
Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) of the CEQA Guidelines, which exempts a
single-family residence, swimming pool, and accessory structures.
Public Participation
Staff has not received any concerns.
CRITERIA FOR SITE PLAN REVIEW
17.46.50 Required Site Plan Review findings.
1. The Commission shall be required to make findings in acting to approve, conditionally
approve, or deny a Site Plan Review application.
2. 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:
3. The project complies with and is consistent with the goals and policies of the general plan
and all requirements of the zoning ordinance;
4. 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;
5. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and
surrounding residences;
6. 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);
7. Grading has been designed to follow natural contours of the site and to minimize the
amount of grading required to create the building area;
8. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, unless such
flow is redirected into an existing drainage course;
9. 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;
10. The project is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenient and safe movement of
pedestrians and vehicles; and
11. The project conforms to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act.
12. If all of the above findings cannot be made with regard to the proposed project, or cannot
be made even with changes to the project through project conditions imposed by City staff
and/or the Planning Commission, the site plan review application shall be denied.
CRITERIA FOR VARIANCES
17.38.50 Required Variance 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;
50
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.
RECOMMENDATION:
Open the public hearing, take public testimony, close the public hearing, discuss the proposed
project, and provide direction to staff and applicants. A resolution is provided in case the
Commission wishes to approve the project with conditions.

RESOLUTION NO. 2024-03
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ROLLING HILLS GRANTING APPROVAL OF ZONING CASE NO. 23-100 FOR
A SITE PLAN REVIEW TO DEMOLISH AN EXISTING RESIDENCE, EXPAND
THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING PAD, CONSTRUCT A NEW RESIDENCE,
ATTACHED GARAGE, SWIMMING POOL, RETAINING WALLS EXCEEDING A
HEIGHT OF 3 FEET (UP TO A MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 5 FEET), NON-EXEMPT
GRADING, AND OTHER IMPROVEMENTS; AND VARIANCE TO EXCEED THE
40% DISTURBANCE FOR A PROPERTY LOCATED AT 4 SPUR LANE,
ROLLING HILLS, CA, 90274, AND FINDING THE PROJECT CATEGORICALLY
EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (LOT 11-
B-CH) (LUKIC)
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS DOES HEREBY FIND,
RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. An application was duly filed by Luis de Moraes of Envirotechno
Architecture Inc, on behalf of the property owners Mr. Neb Lukic and Jennifer Lukic
(“Applicants”), with respect to real property located at 4 Spur Lane, Rolling Hills (Lot 11-B-CH)
requesting a site plan review to demolish an existing 3,525-square-foot single-family residence
and construct a new 5,535-square-foot single-family residence and attached garage in a similar
footprint, and construct maximum five-foot-high retaining walls in the rear portion of the building
pad and in the side yards, expand the existing residential building pad to 13,920 square feet,
conduct 4,685 cubic yards of non-exempt grading, a new 1,010-square-foot swimming pool, and
34-square-foot pool equipment. The project requires a new main driveway and removal of the
existing driveway. The project also includes 34-square-foot pool equipment, 453-square feet of
attached covered porches, 166-square-foot barbecue, 55 cubic yards grading (exempt), and
123-square-foot service yard, which are not subject to discretionary review. A variance is
requested to exceed the 40% maximum disturbance and 35% total lot coverage. The applicants
originally requested a 1,585-square-foot stable and driveway access in the rear portion of the
property; however, this was withdrawn from the project.
Section 2. The existing single-family residence was built in 1951, and in 1962, the
Planning Commission approved a variance for an addition to a single-family residence.
Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to
consider the application at its morning field trip meeting and regular meeting 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 applicants and agent were notified of the
public hearings in writing by first class mail and the agent was 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 decrease the amount of grading for the Project. The Planning Commission
55
2
Resolution No. 2024-03 (ZC 23-100)
4 Spur Lane (Lukic)
directed the applicants to bring the project back when the relocated driveway and apron in the
relocated easements were approved by the Rolling Hills Community Association (RHCA). On
February 22, 2024, the RHCA approved the relocation of the driveway and apron on Spur Lane.
The applicants were granted access to use the RHCA easement for the new driveway and apron.
The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the
application at its field trip meeting and regular meeting on March 19, 2024. Neighbors within a
1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearings and a notice was published in the Daily
Breeze on March 6, 2024. The applicants and agent were notified of the public hearings in writing
by first class mail and were in attendance at the hearings. Evidence was heard and presented
at the public hearing from all persons interested in affecting said proposal.
Section 4. On December 11, 2023, the Traffic Commission held a special meeting to
review the two new proposed driveways and aprons. The main driveway apron is located on
Spur Lane and the secondary driveway to the stable is located on Cinchring Road. On December
11, 2023, the Traffic Commission approved the main driveway and denied the secondary
driveway for stable access. The Traffic Engineer did not recommend the secondary driveway
due to safety and drainage concerns. The Traffic Commission directed staff to work with the
applicants to consider alternative locations for the secondary driveway for stable access. The
applicants decided to remove the stable and secondary driveway from the project at this time.
Section 5. The property is zoned RAS-1 and the net lot area excluding the roadway
easement is 1.08 acre (47,063 square feet). Currently, there is only one building pad that exists
on the property. The project includes an existing 7,260-square-foot building pad near the front
of the property closest to the street. The existing residence is located 14-feet from the front
roadway easement, 25-feet from the west side property line, and 24 from the east side property
line. The rear property line is located downslope of the building pad over 288 feet to the south.
The current residence encroaches into the 30-foot front setback by 10 feet.
Section 6. 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 single family residence and accessory structures, including but
not limited to garages, carports, patios, swimming pools and fences. Here, the Project includes
the demolition of a residence and construction of a new single-family residence and related
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 site has
already been graded and existing structures are on site.
Section 7. Site Plan Review. Site Plan Review is required for demolition of an existing
residence and for the construction of a new 4,780-square-foot residence and attached 665-
square-foot garage pursuant to RHMC Section 17.46.020(A), for a retaining wall above three
feet in height pursuant to RHMC Section 17.16.190(F), a 1,010-square-foot swimming pool
pursuant to RHMC Section 17.46.020(A)2.b for swimming pool/spa more than 800-square-feet,
expansion of existing residential building pad to 13,780-square-feet, and for non-exempt grading
totaling 4,685 CY including 55 CY of export (exempt) pursuant to RHMC Section 17.46.020(A).

Resolution No. 2024-03 (ZC 23-100)
4 Spur Lane (Lukic)
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, which includes demolition and construction of a residence
and grading is compatible with the General Plan and Zoning ordinance, subject to a site plan
review. The proposed structures comply with the General Plan requirement of low profile, low-
density residential development with sufficient open space between surrounding structures. The
new residence will be built on the existing 7,260-square-foot building pad that be enlarged to
13,780-square-feet, expanded 60 feet, and the existing grade will be lowered 7-feet in depth,
which will reduce the visual impact. The site plan review for the retaining walls not to exceed the
5-foot maximum height along the southwest corner of the residence.
The new residence meets the requirements for reduced setbacks on a smaller lot.
According to RHMC Section 17.24.045, reduced setbacks may apply to properties in the RAS-
1 zoning district that have a lot area of 1.25 acres or less, excluding roadway easements. As
such, the new residence will have a 30-foot front yard setback.
The project conforms to Zoning Code lot coverage requirements. The net lot area of the
lot is 47,063-square feet or 1.08 acres per RHMC Section 17.16.060(A). The structural net lot
coverage is proposed at 7,934 square feet or 16.86% (20% max. permitted) excluding exempt
structures; the total flatwork coverage proposed is 6,775-square-feet or 14.40%, and the total lot
coverage proposed, including structural & flatwork, would be 14,709 square feet or 31.25% (35%
max. permitted). The disturbed area of the lot is proposed to be 29,880 square feet or 63.49%
(40% permitted). The disturbed area exceeds the maximum 40% permitted by 22.49%. The
applicant has requested a Variance to exceed the disturbance limitations to 29,880 square-feet
or 63.49%.
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 proposed
grading and retaining wall for development will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental
to adjacent uses, buildings, or structures; the grading and retaining wall allows the proposed
construction to be constructed largely on an existing building pad which enables proposed
project elements to be the least intrusive to surrounding properties. The existing building pad is
relatively small at 7,260-square-feet, the RHMC requires a minimum 12,000-square-foot building
pad. The enlargement of the building pad to 13,380-square-feet, 40-foot expansion, and lowering
the pad by 7-feet in depth will level and even out the lot for the new residence, swimming
pool/spa, driveway, and amenities.
The applicants are proposing to remove the existing driveway on Spur Lane located on the
northeastern side of the property and construct a new driveway on the northwestern side of the
57
4
Resolution No. 2024-03 (ZC 23-100)
4 Spur Lane (Lukic)
property. The new garage will be located at the northeastern portion of the parcel. The new
driveway will be 90 feet long by 22 feet wide extending to the new garage.
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 development plan takes into consideration the visibility of the project
from Spur Lane as it utilizes the enlarge and expand the existing building pad and has a similar
footprint to the existing residence. The existing driveway will be relocated to the northwest
portion of the lot and repaved to align with the new garage. The swimming pool/spa will be
located at the edge of the expanded residential building pad. The retaining walls have been
designed to support the expanded building pad.
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).
A landscape plan has been prepared to for compliance with water efficient landscape
ordinance requirements and low impact development standards. The landscape plan will
introduce additional landscaping, which will be compatible with and enhances the rural character
of the community, and the landscaping will provide a buffer or transition area between private
and public areas. The grading and retaining wall are designed to preserve existing topography
where possible and mimic the natural terrain.
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 consists of 2,375 CY of cut and 2,375 CY of fill. The grading and retaining walls
are designed to preserve slopes where possible and mimic the natural terrain.
F. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage
flow, unless such flow is redirected into an existing drainage course.
Grading will be done to improve the residential building pad, driveway and walkways
throughout the site. Drainage will not change and will follow the natural drainage courses 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 and new landscaping
will be considerate of the environment and will enhance the rural character of the community.
58

Resolution No. 2024-03 (ZC 23-100)
4 Spur Lane (Lukic)
Landscaping will provide a buffer or transition between various pads on the property. 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.
The garage has been relocated to the northeast portion of the parcel and the garage
access is reoriented to the west. The new driveway is accessible from the relocated apron at the
northeast corner of the parcel, extends 22 feet wide by 90 feet long at the north end of the parcel.
The new driveway and apron will provide better circulation and parking for the property owners’
family and guests. An adequate pathway is proposed to safely accommodate pedestrians
around the residence to the backyard and the rear of the property. Adequate walkways will be
provided to the pool and deck.
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 the construction of a new single-family residence,
swimming pool, retaining walls, and associated grading. 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.
Section 8. Variance. Section 17.38.050 sets forth the required findings for
granting variances to for the development to exceed the maximum 40% of the net lot area as
identified in Section 17.16.170, Section 17.16.150(B). With respect to the 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 residence was
developed prior to the City’s incorporation and has a legal nonconforming front yard setback of
30 feet which may continue pursuant to Section 17.24.045. However, the small lot size and
location of the building pad near the street are exceptional circumstances applicable to the
property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same vicinity and zone. The
variance is warranted due to the unique sloping topography that does not apply generally to
other properties in the vicinity. The existing building pad is 7,260 square feet, and in order for
the lot to conform to the minimum 12,000 building pad size, additional disturbance of 6,520
square feet will be added for a total of 13,780-square-foot building pad.
59
6
Resolution No. 2024-03 (ZC 23-100)
4 Spur Lane (Lukic)
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. The existing main building pad is too small, therefore a larger
building pad which requires additional disturbance of 23% will accommodate a new residence,
garage, driveway, swimming pool, and improvements. Other properties in the vicinity enjoy these
types of improvements.
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 the variances to exceed the maximum allowable 40% disturbance will not be
detrimental to the public welfare and will not be injurious to properties in the vicinity; a new
residence, garage, driveways, swimming pool/spa, and other improvements are allowed in the
Rolling Hills community. Further, the project will be consistent with other developments in the
area.
D. That in granting the variance, the spirit and intent of this title will be
observed.
The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain, and
surrounding residences because the proposed construction complies with the low-profile
residential development pattern of the community and will not give the property an over-
built look. The lot is sufficient to accommodate the proposed use.
E. That the variance does not grant special privilege to the applicant.
The construction in the side setback allows a new single family home similar to others
enjoyed by many properties throughout the City. The project, together with the variances,
will be compatible with the objectives, policies, general land uses, and programs 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.
G. That the variance request is consistent with the General Plan of the City of
Rolling Hills.
60
7
Resolution No. 2024-03 (ZC 23-100)
4 Spur Lane (Lukic)
Granting the variance will be consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills,
which allows and encourages residential uses and property improvements. It will further the low-
profile residential development pattern of the community and will not give the property
an over-built look.
Section 9. Approval Conditions. Based upon the foregoing findings, and the evidence
in the record, the Planning Commission hereby approves Zoning Case No. 23-100 subject to the
following conditions:

Re: Request for License Agreement for Driveway and Drainage in West Side Easement.
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Lukic,
This letter is to inform you that at the February 22, 2024 Board of Directors meeting, the Board
approved your request for a license agreement for a driveway and drainage west side easement of
your property.
The following documents are required to complete the license agreement process:
1) The legal description of the area of the easement being used for the driveway and
drainage(needed)
2) A survey showing the location of swale in the easement (received with application)
Once we receive the legal description, the Association’s attorney will draw up the license
agreement for you to sign and invoice for the legal and recording fee. The license agreement
requires your signatures to be notarized and we have a notary in the office available to provide
this service at your convenience and at no cost to you.
When we receive the signed documents with payment for the legal and recording fee, the
Association’s attorney will have it recorded with the county. Legal fees and recording costs for
the process will be $450 and will be due on receipt of the license agreement and invoice.
You may not begin construction until after the license agreement is recorded with the county and
the RHCA mails you a copy of the recorded license agreement.
*** This approval does not include City of Rolling Hills approval or Building and Safety approval.
Please contact these agencies prior to construction***
Please feel free to contact the office if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Myrna Jacott
Administrative Assistant

There is an existing detached 890-square-foot three-car garage attached to a 190-square-foot
shed. One garage space and the shed will be demolished. The remaining two-car garage will
be 640 square feet and connected to the residence. The existing 185-square-foot breezeway
that connects the two residential buildings will be incorporated into the proposed residence.
There are two separate basements proposed for a total of 1,950 square feet: the northern
basement is for a wine cellar, storage, and pool equipment; the southern basement is for a
theater and bunk room. There is a light well from the southern basement to the exterior. The
pool equipment in the northern basement extends beyond the building footprint under the
patio.
86
The proposed stable connects the existing 1,060-square-foot stable to an 880-square-foot
farm equipment garage/shop; a turnout area will be enclosed and used for storage and areas
in-between will be enclosed. The existing 793-square-foot loft will be expanded to include a
778-square-foot tack room for a total of 1,571 square feet. In total, the proposed stable will be
5,146 square feet.
The project includes retaining walls with a maximum height of three feet located west and
north of the residence creating a patio and walkway, and along the driveway and sports court.
The swimming pool wall on the western side will be five feet high overlooking a slope. The
sports court fence will be 10 feet high.
The driveway entrance will be widened to twenty feet and leads to a motor court with a tree
feature in the center. The motor court will be pervious and extends 32 feet wide around the
tree. It connects to the two-car garage and provides access to the stable.
The applicant is proposing screening trees along Crest Road West at a maximum height of
eight feet above grade level of the street. A vineyard and orchard are proposed on the portion
east of Possum Ridge Road. A second vineyard is proposed in the northwestern corner of the
lot behind the residence.

along the western and southern side of the court. Section 17.16.210 (A)(7) of the Zoning
Ordinance contains conditions for recreational game courts, subject to approval of a
conditional use permit. These conditions, listed below, are intended to ensure that such
structures: are ancillary recreational uses, do not eliminate an existing or future development
for a stable, do not create visual or other impacts and blend in with the existing topography
and landscape or views.
Recreational Game Courts are defined as: tennis, racquetball and squash courts, and any

89
Variances
Variances are requested for encroachment into the front and rear yard setbacks. The northern
portion of the existing residence already encroaches into the front yard setback, which will
require additions in that area to also encroach. Similarly, portions of the farm equipment
garage/shop building encroach into the rear yard setback. The garage/shop building will be
incorporated into the stable and the use will be changed. The required setback for a stable is
25 feet from the rear property line and a variance request is needed for encroachment. A
variance is also needed for the swimming pool, which will encroach into the required 50-foot
rear yard setback. The sports court located on the east side of Possum Ridge Road will
encroach into the front and rear yard setbacks. The applicant is claiming a hardship due to the
configuration of the lot and the fact that Possum Ridge Road traverses the site into two
portions.
ISSUES OF CONCERN
Redevelopment
The proposed project will connect the main residence, extension, and garage into one
building. Similarly, the stable will be combined with the farm equipment garage/shop into one
building. The two existing storage sheds, transformer/generator, and enclosed cabana will
remain. A sports court is proposed on the east side of Possum Ridge Road. Currently, the
area is used as a corral or open field. The applicant wishes to improve the uses and
appearance of the property and the Planning Commission should consider each aspect of the
project.
Stable
The proposed 5,146 SF stable attaches the existing stable to a garage/shop. It includes a
1,571 SF loft which contains a 778 SF tack room.
An existing turnout will be enclosed and used for storage. A separate storage to the west will
remain, but be connected by a 3’ wide breezeway. A bathroom will be connected to the
storage. Per RHMC Section 17.18.060, bathrooms are only permitted within the tack room.
The stable includes four stalls. The remaining area will be used for storage and agricultural
uses.
Grading is needed under the foundation of the stable to make it level with the garage shop.
Recommendations:
Remove the bathroom or include it as part of the tack room.
Consider if attached storage on the east and detached storage to the west are
appropriate.
Consider if the loft is appropriate.
Swimming Pool
The swimming pool requires a variance for encroaching into the rear yard setback. To the
north of the pool is an outdoor kitchen. There is a 5’ high wall along the western portion of the
90
swimming pool which will overlook a slope. The swimming pool equipment will be located in
the basement, but outside of the building footprint. It should be relocated elsewhere.
Basement
The northern basement is for a wine cellar, storage, and pool equipment. The pool equipment
in the northern basement extends beyond the building footprint under the patio which is not
permitted by Code. In terms of practicality, a pool cleaner would have to go through the house
and down into the basement to access the pool equipment.
It is recommended that the pool equipment be moved next to the swimming pool near the
outdoor kitchen or downslope from the swimming pool where it is less visible.
Sports Court
The sports court requires a variance to encroach into the front and rear yard setbacks. The
court fence will be 10 feet high. The proposed area has been undeveloped and is in a key
location at the northwestern corner of Portuguese Bend Road and Crest Road West. The
sports court will be graded into the slope to be discreet, however, the area may be over-
graded to exceed the maximum 750 CY permitted. A condition should be added.
There is a pathway leading to the sports court from Possum Ridge Road. To prevent vehicles
from entering the pathway, a condition should be added to limit the width, require steps, or
provide an obstruction to vehicles. Otherwise, vehicular access will be subject to Traffic
Commission approval.
Driveway
The driveway is currently 18 feet wide and will be widened to 20 feet. The motor court will be
approximately 32 feet wide going around a tree planter in the center. The driveway adds a
total of 7,015 SF to the existing 4,535 SF driveway. A condition should be added to require
permeable material to promote low impact development (LID) standards. Also, the driveway
and motor court provide access to the stable. A condition should be added to prevent future
expansion of the motor court to cover the full width of the stable.
Landscape/Privacy
The project includes a vineyard and orchard on the eastern portion of the lot, and a vineyard in
the western portion of the lot behind the residence. The Planning Commission should consider
the appropriateness.
Landscaping is proposed in the RHCA easement. RHCA generally does not allow new
planting without prior approval. A condition should be added.
The applicant proposes screening trees along Crest Road East for privacy. Crest Road East is
located at a higher elevation and any trees along Crest Road East will already be higher than
the roof ridge of the residence. The Planning Commission should consider if these trees are
appropriate.
91
MUNICIPAL CODE COMPLIANCE
Grading and Stabilization
The western portion of the site is already disturbed and developed. Grading is needed for the
swimming pool, basement, stable, walkways, driveway, and sports court. There will be 2,743
cubic yards (CY) of cut and 2,315 CY of fill for a total of 5,058 CY. A total of 428 CY of exempt
dirt will be exported for the swimming pool and basement. Grading for the sports court will
remain on the property, but is in close proximity to the canyon.
Disturbance
An additional 25,770 square feet of the lot is proposed to be disturbed, which includes both the
residential building pad and sports court pad. Currently, 34,700 SF is disturbed. The project
will bring a total of 60,470 SF of disturbance, or 39.8% of the lot.
Height
The finished roof height of the proposed residence is 18 feet 9 inches. The finished roof height
of the stable with loft is 23 feet 6 inches. The basement will be approximately 10’ in depth.
Storm Water Management
This application is subject to the General Permit requirements for storm water management,
where the State requires that a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan be submitted and a
permit obtained, due to grading on one or more acres of land. This application is also subject
to the City’s Low Impact Development (LID) ordinance requirements for retention of water on
site, and the City’s Water Efficient Landscaping Ordinance where the applicants must
implement low water usage planting and devices and certify compliance. All of these
requirements will be monitored at the plan check review process and during construction.
Lot Coverage
The structural net lot coverage is proposed at 18,590 square feet or 12.2% (20% max.
permitted). The total lot coverage proposed (structural and flatwork) will be 32,605 square feet
or 21.5% (35% max. permitted).
The residential building pad is proposed at 46,830 square feet. The building pad coverage on
the main residence pad is proposed at 13,990 square feet or 29.9%, which includes the
residence, garage, swimming pool, stable, storage buildings, and other structures.
The sports court building pad is proposed at 5,600 square feet. The building pad coverage on
the pad is proposed at 4,600 square feet or 82.1%.
Pedestrian Access
On grade walking paths are proposed to access the rear area of the property. There will be a
minimum 5-foot-wide walkway around structures to comply with Fire Department
requirements.
Utility Lines / Septic Tank
92
It will be a requirement that utility lines to the residence be placed underground. Septic tank
review is done by the County Health Department.
General
In the application, the ratio of the proposed development to the lot is minimal because the site
is very large. All setbacks and coverages are well below the requirements and the Zoning and
General Plan allow a single-family residence on the lot.
Rolling Hills Community Association Review
Rolling Hills Community Association will review this project at a later date.
Environmental Review
The project has been determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Planning Commission Responsibilities
When reviewing a development application, the Planning Commission must consider whether
the proposed project meets the criteria for a Site Plan Review, Conditional Use Permit, and
Variance, as attached below.
SITE PLAN REVIEW CRITERIA
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
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.
17.46.050 Required findings.
1. The Commission shall be required to make findings in acting to approve, conditionally
approve, or deny a site plan review application.
2. 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:
3. The project complies with and is consistent with the goals and policies of the general
plan and all requirements of the zoning ordinance;
4. 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;
5. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and
surrounding residences;
93
6. 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);
7. Grading has been designed to follow natural contours of the site and to minimize the
amount of grading required to create the building area;
8. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, unless
such flow is redirected into an existing drainage course;
9. 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;
10. The project is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenient and safe movement of
pedestrians and vehicles; and
11. The project conforms to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act.
CRITERIA FOR APPROVAL OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
17.42.050 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;
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 APPROVAL OF A VARIANCE
17.38.050 Required Variance 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;

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ROLLING HILLS GRANTING APPROVAL OF ZONING CASE NO. 23-150 FOR
A SITE PLAN REVIEW TO CONSTRUCT ADDITIONS TO AN EXISTING
RESIDENCE AND STABLE GREATER THAN 999 SQUARE FEET, NEW
BASEMENT, SWIMMING POOL, OUTDOOR KITCHEN, RETAINING WALLS,
COVERED DECKS/PORCHES, GRADING, HARDSCAPE, LANDSCAPE, AND
OTHER IMPROVEMENTS; CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS FOR A STABLE
GREATER THAN 200 SQUARE FEET WITH LOFT, CORRAL, AND A
RECREATIONAL GAME COURT; AND VARIANCES FOR CONSTRUCTION IN
THE FRONT AND REAR YARD SETBACKS FOR A PROPERTY LOCATED AT
2 POSSUM RIDGE ROAD, AND FINDING THE PROJECT CATEGORICALLY
EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (LOT
123-RH) (WHITCOMBE)
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS DOES HEREBY FIND,
RESOLVE, AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. On December 28, 2023, an application was duly filed by Megan Campbell,
Campbell Architects Inc. (“Applicant”), on behalf of the property owner, John D. Whitcombe, with
respect to real property located at 2 Possum Ridge Road, Rolling Hills (LOT 123-RH ) requesting:
a Site Plan Review to construct 2,570 square feet of additions to an existing residence, a new
1,950-square-foot basement, 1,200-square-foot swimming pool with a 5-foot-high wall along a
slope, 1,635 square feet of additions to connect an existing stable to an accessory building, 778-
square-foot addition to the stable loft for a tack room, 170-square-foot outdoor kitchen, 335-
square-foot fire pit, maximum three-foot-high retaining walls, 795 square feet of covered
decks/porches, 5,058 cubic yards of grading, new hardscape including an expansion of the
driveway and motor court, landscaping, and other improvements; conditional use permits for a
stable with loft greater than 200 square feet (total size to be 5,146 square feet), corral, and a
4,600-square-foot sports court; and variances for construction in the front and rear yard
setbacks for the additions to the residence and stable, covered porches/decks, swimming pool,
lightwell access, and sports court.
Section 2. The lot is unusually shaped being traversed by Possum Ridge Road and
having frontage on Crest Road West and Portuguese Bend Road. The net lot area is 3.49 acres
(151,990 square feet), which excludes roadway easements and ten feet along property lines.
Possum Ridge Road has a 50-foot-wide roadway easement which divides the property into two
parts. The western part is developed and the eastern part is vacant. The lot has one 47,900-
square-foot building pad (Pad 1) developed with the main residence, stable, and other
improvements. A second building pad (Pad 2) of 5,600 square feet is proposed for a new
recreational sports court on the eastern part of the property. The property is developed with a
3,660-square-foot main residence, 890-square-foot detached garage, 1,940 square-foot stable
with a 793-square-foot storage loft, 225-square-foot enclosed cabana, 735 square feet of
accessory structures used for storage, and a 90-square-foot service yard. The existing driveway
is 4,535 square feet.

Resolution No. 2024-05
2 Possum Ridge Road (Whitcombe)
Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to
consider the application at its field trip meeting and regular meeting on March 19, 2024.
Neighbors within a 1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearings and a notice was
published in the Daily Breeze on March 7, 2024. The applicants were notified of the public
hearings in writing by first class mail and the applicants were 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 additions to
the residence and stable, a new swimming pool, sports court, hardscape, grading, 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.
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 is for an addition to the residence and stable, new basement, swimming, driveway
expansion, 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
development is located on the existing building pad, which will reduce the visual impact from
neighboring properties.
The Project conforms to Zoning Code lot coverage requirements. The net lot area of the
lot is 151,990 square feet (3.49 acres) per RHMC Section 17.16.060(A). The structural net lot
coverage is proposed at 19,030 square feet or 12.5% (20% max. permitted) excluding exempt
structures; and the total lot coverage proposed, including flatwork, would be 33,045 square feet
or 21.7% (35% max. permitted). The disturbed area is 60,470 square feet or 39.8% (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
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 on an existing building pad which enables project elements to be the least
100
3
Resolution No. 2024-05
2 Possum Ridge Road (Whitcombe)
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 and 39.8% of the lot will be disturbed with the remaining area either
landscaped or left in a natural state. The proposed sports court pad will be 5,600 square feet
and located at a lower elevation from adjacent roads to minimize view obstruction.
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 development plan takes into consideration the visibility of the project
from Portuguese Bend Road, Crest Road West, and Possum Ridge Road. Significant portions
of the lot will be left undeveloped or landscaped.
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. Grading for the sports court pad will be
balanced at the same location. 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.
Grading will be balanced on site with exception to 428 cubic yards of export needed to create
the basement and swimming pool, which is exempt. Grading for the sports court pad will be
balanced at the same location. 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.
Grading will be balanced on site with exception to 428 cubic yards of export needed to
create the basement and swimming pool, which is exempt. Grading for the sports court pad will
be balanced at the same location. Existing drainage channels will not be affected nor redirected.
Additional hardscape will direct stormwater toward existing drainage channels.
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
101
4
Resolution No. 2024-05
2 Possum Ridge Road (Whitcombe)
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 are no changes to the existing circulation patterns for pedestrians or vehicles. The
driveway will be widened and motor court enlarged to provide better vehicular circulation and
more off-street parking.
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 additions to the residence and stable, a new swimming
pool, sports court, hardscape, grading, 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. Much of the site has already been graded
and developed.
Section 6. Conditional Use Permit Findings. RHMC Section 17.16.040(A)(5-6) require a
Conditional Use Permit for a recreational game (sports) court and a stable over 200 square feet,
respectively. The Applicant is proposing a 4,600-square-foot sports court on the east side of
Possum Ridge Road, and connecting the existing stable to an accessory building for a total size
of 5,146 square feet. 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 sports court and stable 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 sports court and stable. 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
102
5
Resolution No. 2024-05
2 Possum Ridge Road (Whitcombe)
structures because the proposed sports court and stable are located on a developed 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 151,990 square feet and is adequate to support the proposed
uses. The property is 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.
The proposed conditional uses comply with all applicable development standards of the
RAS-2 Zone, with exception to the variances requested herein.
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 uses are 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 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 6. Variance Findings. Section 17.38.050 sets forth the required findings for
granting Variances for a portion of the proposed project to be constructed in the front and rear
yard setbacks for the additions to the residence and stable, covered porches/decks, swimming
pool, lightwell access, and sports court. With respect to this request for Variances, the Planning
Commission finds as follows:
103
6
Resolution No. 2024-05
2 Possum Ridge Road (Whitcombe)
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. Unlike most properties
in the RAS-2 Zone, the subject property is traversed by a roadway easement creating two
smaller sections each with front yard setbacks along the easement. The existing residence
already encroaches into the front yard setback, and the existing accessory buildings already
encroach into the rear yard setback. The proposed project would encroach into the required
front and rear yard setbacks; however, these areas are already developed and disturbed. The
proposed sports court would encroach into the front and rear yard setbacks due to the
narrowness of the site caused by the roadway easement. The main residence on the western
portion of the property is accessible from a driveway on Possum Ridge Road. The existing
eastern section of the residence already encroaches into the front yard setback, meaning the
addition will be consistent with the appearance of the existing property.
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.
The proposed project, including additions, is consistent with the existing development on
the site which already encroaches into the front and rear yard setbacks. 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 encroachment into the front and rear yard setbacks 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 residence and structures. Further, the
project will improve the appearance of the property by connecting buildings into a larger mass.
Landscaping will be provided to screen structures from Crest Road West.
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 an expansion of the existing development which already encroaches into the front and
rear yard setbacks. The sports court requires a variance to encroach into the front and rear
yard setbacks because of the narrowness of the eastern section of the property caused by
104
7
Resolution No. 2024-05
2 Possum Ridge Road (Whitcombe)
the roadway easement which traverses the property. The project, together with the
variance, will be compatible with the objectives, policies, general land uses, and programs
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 and rear yard
setbacks will be consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills, which
encourages residential uses.
Section 7. Based upon the foregoing findings, and the evidence in the record, the
Planning Commission hereby approves Zoning Case No. 23-150 subject to the following
conditions:
A. Approval for the Site Plan Review, Conditional Use Permits, and Variances shall
expire within two years from the effective date of approval as defined in RHMC Section
17.38.070 of the Zoning Ordinance unless otherwise extended pursuant to the requirements of

B. If any condition of this resolution is violated, the entitlement granted by this
resolution shall be suspended and the privileges granted hereunder shall lapse and upon receipt
of written notice from the City, all construction work being performed on the subject property
shall immediately cease, other than work determined by the City Manager or his/her designee
required to cure the violation. The suspension and stop work order will be lifted once the
Applicant cures the violation to the satisfaction of the City Manager or his/her designee. In the
event that the Applicant disputes the City Manager or his/her designee’s determination that a
violation exists or disputes how the violation must be cured, the Applicant may request a hearing
before the City Council. The hearing shall be scheduled at the next regular meeting of the City
Council for which the agenda has not yet been posted; the Applicant shall be provided written
notice of the hearing. 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
105
8
Resolution No. 2024-05
2 Possum Ridge Road (Whitcombe)
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

DATE: March 8, 2024
TO: John Signo
FIRM: City of Rolling Hills
FROM: Carrie Mandarino
PROJECT: 2 Possum Ridge Road
SUBJECT: Preliminary Landscape Plan Review
Dear John,
Thank you for the opportunity to review the preliminary landscape plan for 2 Possum
Ridge Road located in the City of Rolling Hills. The landscape plans have been reviewed
for compliance with the Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO).
Landscape plans were reviewed for appropriateness and adaptability of selected plants,
water efficient irrigation design, and the use of design elements that enhance the
character of the community. Review of hardscape and precise grading and drainage are
not included.
Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO) Compliance
Landscape plans have been reviewed for compliance with The City of Rolling Hills
Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance No. 361.
This is a Preliminary Plan submittal with 69,997 s.f. of landscape. The Water Efficient
Landscape Worksheet calculations for the project was submitted. The Eto of 39.7 for City
of Rolling Hills was used in the calculations. The pool is included in the ETWU
calculation, however a 1.0 plant factor and 1.0 irrigation efficiency (1.0 ETAF) should be
used. A hydrozone map is not provided.
The preliminary plant palette is comprised of low and moderate water use plants,
including California natives and grasses. Plant water use is shown in the legend and
checked per WUCOLS IV Region 3 South Coastal. Several large zones show either low
water use Kurapia ground cover or moderate water use Buffalo grass. A small area of
high water use Marathon turfgrass is specified.
The project application was submitted, along with MWELO Compliance notes, a
Statement of Compliance with the Landscape Ordinance, and a note requiring a 3-inch
layer of mulch. Planting notes with soil preparation with amendments for planting are
shown.
Irrigation Plan
An irrigation equipment legend is provided. A rain sensor/shut-off needs to be added.
Provide an irrigation plan with final submittal.

Planting Plan
The plant palette is comprised of a wide variety of low and moderate water use trees,
shrubs, natives, grasses, and ground cover that are adapted to the local climate and
conditions on site. A large area on the property proposes either low water use Lippia
nodiflora ground cover or moderate water use UC Verde Buffalo grass.
Low water use Olive ‘Swan Hill’, native Quercus agrifolia, and Prunus lyonii are
proposed. Moderate water use trees include native Platanus racemosa, Cercis ‘Texas
White’, Citrus species, and stone fruit trees. Planting notes are provided.
A variety of low and moderate water use shrubs, grasses, and ground cover include:
Acacia, Agapanthus, Baccharis, Carex, Carissa, Carpenteria, Ceanothus, Correa,
Dianella, Dymondia, Heuchera, Iris, Laurus nobilis, Lavandula, Leucadendron,
Lomandra, Muhlenbergia, Myoporum, Olea, Pennisetum, Pittosporum, Rhamnus,
Rhaphiolepis, Rhus, Rosa, Rosmarinus, Salvia, Teucrium, Vitus, and Westringia.
Low water use Lippia nodiflora (Kurapia) and moderate water use UC Verde Buffalo
grass are proposed. Per Water Requirements of Turfgrass in WUCOLS IV, Buffalo grass
is a moderate water user with a .6 plant factor.
The proposed vineyard with a low growing erosion control understory and fruit tree
orchard provide an interesting landscape element to the property.
City Requirements and Notes
Per City of Rolling Hills requirements, trees specified shall not grow taller than the roof
ridge height. Species of concern that grow taller than this include, Olea europaea,
Quercus agrifolia, and Platanus racemosa. Show the mature tree height in the legend.
Trees should also be located so that neighboring views are not obstructed.
No City prohibited tree species are shown on the plan.
No planting is allowed in the RHCA easement. The landscaping along Crest Road West
roadway easement has been removed. In addition, hedges are not allowed in Rolling
Hills. Laurus nobilis or Prunus lyonii proposed at the edge of the property will create a
hedge as shown unless spaced farther apart or in an uneven pattern approximately 15 feet
minimum apart. The row of Olive trees as spaced will also create a screen and are at a
higher elevation than the residence.
The following City notes should be added to the Plan:
No landscaping shall be allowed in the RHCA easement.
Trees specified shall not grow higher than the height of the roof ridge.
Trees shall be planted in locations that do not hinder views from the adjacent lots.
Trees are required to be maintained to a height not to exceed the roof ridge and so
that views from adjacent lots are not obstructed.
Hedges are not allowed.

Required Revisions for MWELO Compliance
The pool should have a 1.0 ETAF (1.0 plant factor and 1.0 irrigation efficiency)
in the ETWU calculation.
If Buffalo grass is specified, use a moderate .6 plant factor in ETWU.
Provide an irrigation plan with legend, notes/specifications, and details. Add rain
sensor/shut-off to irrigation legend.
Provide a planting plan with legend, notes/specifications, and details.
Specify smaller trees with acceptable mature tree height below roof ridge. Locate
trees so that neighboring views are not obstructed. Show mature height in legend.
Space Laurus nobilis or Prunus lyonii shrubs so as not to create a hedge. Olive
trees as shown will also create a screen and will grow above roof ridge height.
Add City Required Notes shown above to plan.
Installation Note
The irrigation and planting plans shall be installed per the approved landscape plan
documentation package. Any changes or substitutions to plans shall be subject to
approval by the planning department and landscape architect for the City.
A Certificate of Completion shall be submitted by the project designer or contractor prior
to final landscape installation inspection.
I appreciate the opportunity to assist with the review of this landscape plan and would be
happy to discuss any questions you may have.
Respectfully submitted,

property line in the RAS-2 zone and no less than twenty-five feet from side roadway easement
line and from the rear property line.
3.Minimum of sixty percent of the entire structure shall be maintained for agricultural space as
defined in Chapter 17.12 of this title, except as specified in Section 17.18.060(A)(5).
4.Maximum of forty percent, but not to exceed eight hundred square feet, of the entire structure

structure.
5.Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, an existing stable, legally constructed
prior to the effective date of the ordinance from which this chapter derives (August 12, 2010),
which has a loft area that is maintained as a tack room and the loft area comprises more than
forty percent of the size of the first floor may continue to be maintained provided that the area of
the loft used as a tack room does not exceed eight hundred square feet, that no other tack room
exists on the property and the remaining of the structure and its uses are in compliance with the
remaining sections of this chapter.
6.When calculating the size of the stable, the entire footprint including the loft area shall be
included, as measured from the exterior of the walls.
7.If there is more than one stable building on a lot, the tack room space shall be calculated as a
percentage of the entire square footage of the structures and such tack room space may only
be located in one of the structures; notwithstanding the above, it may not exceed eight hundred
square feet.
8.Covered porch shall not be included in the size of the stable for the purpose of calculating the
agricultural and tack room space of the stable.
9.Stables shall not be used as sleeping quarters for humans.
10.Stables shall be used for the exclusive purpose of keeping permitted domestic animals and
related storage and uses, unless otherwise permitted by this chapter. Commercial uses shall not

annoying, or that produce unusual noises, lighting or other impacts that offend the peace and
quiet of persons of ordinary sensibilities and interferes with the comfortable enjoyment of life or
property of any neighboring property are prohibited. Such permitted activities shall be deemed
to be "passive activities" for the purpose of this chapter.
2.Tack room shall not be used as sleeping quarters for humans.
3.Tack room shall not exceed forty percent of the size of the stable, including the size of the loft,

11.All modifications and retrofitting of the tack room space shall be made in such a manner so
that it could be convertible to a tack room, at such time as the structure is to be used for
keeping of animals.
12.Tack room may be detached from the main stable structure, however it shall meet all the
requirements for a tack room as specified in this section.
D.Agricultural Space Within the Stable.
1.Agricultural space shall be no less than sixty percent of the size of the stable including the
size of the loft, if any, except as specified in Section 17.18.060(A)(5). Agricultural space may
contain, but not be limited to stalls, wash racks, feed room, hay storage room, grooming area,
tools and utilities storage area and other equestrian and agricultural spaces. The agricultural

(D)).
3.Loft may not be used as a tack room, if another tack room exists within the stable structure or
elsewhere on the property.
4.Glazed (glass) window openings shall not be allowed in a loft if a loft is used for storage of
hay, feed or other agricultural use. Notwithstanding the above, if the loft is used as other storage
or working area or as a tack room, then removable glazed openings may be allowed.
5.The plate height for the wall of the loft shall be no greater than seven feet.
6.If a loft is constructed in such a way that access is provided from the exterior, the area
immediately adjacent to the exterior of the loft shall not be paved, but may have a porous
surface.

TO CONSTRUCT IN THE FRONT YARD SETBACK AND WAIVE THE
REQUIREMENT FOR A STABLE AND CORRAL SET ASIDE AREA, FOR
A PROPERTY LOCATED AT 29 EASTFIELD DRIVE, ROLLING HILLS,
CA, AND FINDING THE PROJECT CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM
THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (LOT 45-EF)
(AQUINO)
DATE:March 19, 2024
BACKGROUND:
The property is zoned RAS-1 and the net lot area is 54,998 square feet (1.26 acres). The lot is
currently developed with an 1,889-square-foot single-family residence, 433-square-foot
attached garage, and 490-square-foot covered porch, 52-square-foot shed. The lot size,
easements, existing topography limit the size and location of any proposed improvements on
site.
The existing residence is a legal non-conforming structure that already encroaches into the
existing front setback. There is one building pad and the existing topography of the project site
slopes down approximately 211 feet from the front to the rear property line near the bottom of
a canyon. The existing topography of the entire site limits a safe buildable area for a future
1,000-square-foot equestrian set aside area.

DISCUSSION:
Applicant Requests
On November 15, 2023, applications were duly filed by Brett Buchman of Buchmann Design,
on behalf of Arnold and Lulu Aquino, requesting a Site Plan Review for a 1,075-square-foot
addition to the existing main residence. Variances were also requested for portions of the
additions and porches to encroach into the front set back and exemption from the requirement
to provide the 1,000 square foot equestrian set aside area.
The overall project proposes:
A new 342-square-foot covered porch to the northwest portion of the existing residence
adjacent to the existing living room with new 52-square-foot outdoor kitchen & BBQ
The existing garage will be expanded by a 146 square feet addition (at the west side of
garage). The total garage area will be 579 square feet. The orientation of the garage will
change to the southern elevation.
A 962-square-foot addition will be added to the southwestern portion (primary bedroom
addition).
A 113-square-foot addition will be added to the southeastern portion of the residence
(secondary bedroom addition). The existing main residence is 1,899 square feet, and the
project will add 1,075 square feet for a total of 2,974 square feet.
A new 182-square-foot covered porch will be added to southeast portion of the residence
(adjacent to the secondary bedroom and existing garage).
The project will add a 29-square-foot trash enclosure to the southern portion of the
residence adjacent to the garage area.
A new retaining wall is proposed in the rear of the property within the existing retaining
wall located along the southwestern section of the existing building pad. The maximum
height of the new retaining wall is three feet. The new retaining wall will match the same
design & color of the existing located along the northwestern section of the building pad.
There is very minimal grading required for the new retaining wall a total of 24 cubic yards
(CY) including 12 CY cut and 12 CY fill balanced onsite.
The existing walkways located on the north and east of the residence will remain the
same. The walkways located on the west of the residence will be redesigned.
The existing 679-square-foot parking pad will be converted to the primary driveway.
The existing building height is 13 feet, 3 inches and the project will match the existing
height.
Site Plan Review
The Rolling Hills Municipal Code requires a Site Plan Review for the expansion, modification,
alteration or repair of any existing building or structure addition which increases the size of the
residence by more than 999 square feet pursuant to RHMC Section 17.46.020.A. The Project
proposes a 1,075-square-foot addition to the main the residence (2,974 square feet total) and
146-square-foot addition to the attached garage (579 square feet total).
Variance
The Rolling Hills Municipal Code requires a Variance for deviations from development
136
standards. Variances are requested for a portion of the addition to encroach into the front set
back and exemption from the requirement to provide the 1,000 square foot equestrian set
aside area.
Variance request for encroachment into the front yard setback
The existing residence was built in 1957 and encroaches 24 feet into the 50-foot front yard
setback, which is considered legal nonconforming. However, any new addition must meet the
required 50-foot front yard setback. A variance is requested for a 113-square-foot bedroom
addition, 146-square-foot garage addition, and 182-square-foot covered porch to encroach
into the front yard setback.
MUNICIPAL CODE COMPLIANCE
Setbacks
The project complies with the required 20-foot side setbacks and 50-foot rear setback in the
RAS-1 Zone. However, due to the smaller lot size, rear slope, and easements, the existing
main residence encroaches into the front setback.
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 2,840.5 square feet or 5.26%, and the project
proposes a net of 1,709.8 square feet or 3.11%, for a total of 4,550.3 square feet or 8.27%.
This is still under the maximum allowed 20% structural coverage.
The existing flatwork coverage is 2,998 square feet or 5.45%, and the project proposes 224
square feet or 0.41%, for a total of 3,222 square feet or 5.86%. This is still under the maximum
allowable 15% structural coverage. The existing structural and flatwork coverage is 5,890.5
square feet or 10.71%, and the project increases that by 1,962.8 square feet or 3.57%. The
total overall structural and flatwork coverage will result in 7,853.3 square feet or 14.28%,
which is still well under the maximum allowed 35% structural and flatwork coverage.
Building Pad #1 is a total of 20,900 square-feet. The existing Building Pad #1 Coverage with
deductions is 7,066 square feet or 34.4%, and with an increase of 1,632 square feet or 7.8%,
and the total proposed Building Pad Coverage with deductions is 8,698 square feet or 42.2%,
this exceeds the maximum 30% guideline by 12.2%.
Disturbance
The existing disturbed area is 13,131 square feet or 23.88% which is still below the maximum
allowed 40%. There is no increase of disturbance because the proposed project is in an area
that is already disturbed

RESOLUTION NO. 2024-04
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ROLLING HILLS GRANTING APPROVAL OF ZONING CASE NO. 23-137 FOR
A SITE PLAN REVIEW TO CONSTRUCT AN ADDITION TO AN EXISTING
RESIDENCE GREATER THAN 999 SQUARE FEET, ATTACHED COVERED
PORCHES, OUTDOOR KITCHEN, AND OTHER IMPROVEMENTS; AND
VARIANCE REQUESTS TO CONSTRUCT IN THE FRONT YARD SETBACK
AND WAIVE THE REQUIREMENT FOR A STABLE AND CORRAL SET ASIDE
AREA, FOR A PROPERTY LOCATED AT 29 EASTFIELD DRIVE, ROLLING
HILLS, CA, AND FINDING THE PROJECT CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM
THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (LOT 45-EF) (AQUINO)
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS DOES HEREBY FIND,
RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. An application was duly filed by Brett Buchmann on behalf of Buchmann
Design with respect to real property located at 29 Eastfield Drive, Rolling Hills (Lot 45-EF)
requesting a Site Plan Review for a 1,075-square-foot addition to the main residence and 146-
square-foot addition to the attached garage, a Variance for a portion of the additions to
encroach into the front yard setback, and a Variance request to waive the requirement for a
stable and corral set aside area.
Section 2. The subject property is developed with one building pad with an 1,889-
square-foot single-family residence, 433-square-foot attached garage, 490 square feet of
covered porches, and 52-square-foot storage shed. The property is zoned RAS-1 and the net
lot area is 54,998 square feet (1.26 acres).
Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to
consider the application at a field trip meeting and regular meeting on March 19, 2024.
Neighbors within a 1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearings and a notice was
published in the Daily Breeze on March 7, 2024. The applicant and agent were notified of the
public hearings in writing by first class mail and the agent was in attendance at the hearings.
Evidence was heard and presented from all persons interested in affecting said proposal.
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 single family residence and accessory structures,
including but not limited to garages, carports, patios, swimming pools and fences. Here, the
Project includes the construction of a new single-family residence and related 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
142
Resolution No. 2024-04 (ZC 23-137)
29 Eastfield Drive (Aquino)
2
a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. The site has already
been graded and existing structures are on site.
Section 5. Site Plan Review. Site Plan Review is required for the expansion,
modification, alteration or repair of any existing building or structure addition which increases
the size of the residence by more than 999 square feet pursuant to RHMC Section
17.46.020.A. The Project is for a 1,075-square-foot addition to the main residence, 146-
square-foot addition to the attached garage, and 438 square feet for covered patios. 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
proposed additions are expansions of areas that are already developed, disturbed, and
encroaches into the front yard setback. The existing main residence and garages already
encroaches into the front setback and front yard, meaning the addition will be consistent with
the appearance of the existing property.
The Project conforms to Zoning Code lot coverage requirements. The net lot area of the
lot is 54,998 square feet (1.26 acres) per RHMC Section 17.16.060(A). The structural net lot
coverage is proposed at 4,550 square feet or 8.27% (20% max. permitted) excluding exempt
structures; and the total lot coverage proposed, including flatwork, would be 7,853 square feet
or 14.28% (35% max. permitted). The disturbed area is 13,131 square feet or 23.88% (40%
max permitted), which will not change since the location of the Project is already disturbed.
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 will be on the 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 area of 2,332 square feet or 17.76%, the project proposes 1,250 square
feet or 9.52%, for a total of 3,582 square feet or 27.28%. The lot is already 23.88% disturbed
with no further disturbance because the additions and improvements are in areas that are
already disturbed.
143
Resolution No. 2024-04 (ZC 23-137)
29 Eastfield Drive (Aquino)

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 improvements are of similar scale with existing houses in
the neighborhood.
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 changes to the overall drainage features on the lot. The Project is
located on an existing building pad. The natural site design, native vegetation, and mature
trees will not be affected. The proposed addition will not further increase disturbance of the site
and the grading for the retaining wall located in the rear yard is limited to 24 cubic yards.
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 proposed grading is limited to the southwest portion of the building pad for the new
retaining wall and the proposed cut and fill will be balanced on site. The proposed additions
are located in areas that are already disturbed, so there is no further disturbance.
F. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage
flow, unless such flow is redirected into an existing drainage course.
There is very minimal grading a total of 24 cubic yards (balanced onsite). Existing
drainage flow will not be changed or redirected. Drainage will follow the natural drainage
courses 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. 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.
144
Resolution No. 2024-04 (ZC 23-137)
29 Eastfield Drive (Aquino)
4
The orientation of the garage will change from the east to the south elevation, but there
are no changes to the existing circulation for the pedestrians or vehicles.
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 an addition to a developed residential
property. 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.
Section 6. Variance. Sections 17.38.010 through 17.38.050 of the Rolling Hills
Municipal Code permit approval of a Variance granting relief from the standards and
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance when exceptional or extraordinary circumstances
applicable to the property prevent the owner from making use of a parcel of property to the
same extent enjoyed by similar properties in the same vicinity or zone. The applicant requests
a variance from the requirements of Section 17.16.200(H) of the Zoning Code to encroach into
the front setback. The applicant requests a second variance from the requirements of Section
17.16.170 (stable and corral site required) of the Zoning Ordinance to waive the requirements
of a stable and corral set aside. With respect to the aforementioned request, the Planning
Commission finds as follows:
A. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances and conditions
applicable to the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same
vicinity and zone.
The areas for the additions to the residence (secondary bedroom), garage, and covered
patio are located in the front setback. However, the existing residence and garage encroaches
24 feet into the front setback due to the configuration and topography of the lot. This condition
does not apply generally to other properties in the same vicinity and zone.
The natural slope of the subject property, the location of the building pad, and the shape
of the lot constrain development. The building pad is small, constrained, and sloped down in
the rear of the property, the building pad does not allow for a reasonably sized pad for a stable
and corral.
If a stable and corral is built on the property, a variance request would be needed to
build in a required setback area on slopes greater than 4:1; non-exempt grading may also
require variance.
145
Resolution No. 2024-04 (ZC 23-137)
29 Eastfield Drive (Aquino)
5
The size, topography, and configuration of the lot do not support the construction of a
stable and corral. By granting this variance, the current or future property owners are not
precluded from applying for approval to construct a stable and corral at a future date if a
suitable location or construction plan is later identified. The property owner is merely relieved
from the obligation to identify and set aside an area for a stable and corral.
B. The variances are necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right possessed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone
but which is denied to the property in question.
The variances to encroach into the front yard is necessary for the preservation and
enjoyment of the property. The area for the additions and covered patio are located in areas
that are already encroaching into the front setback due to the configuration and topography of
the lot.
The variance to deviate from the stable and corral set aside area is necessary for the
preservation and enjoyment of the property owner since the property contains a steep slopes
not suitable for a new pad. The ability to provide a stable and corral or a set aside area is an
amenity enjoyed by most property owners in the City. The subject property is not capable of
providing such an amenity due to constraints with size, topography, and configuration. The
limited building pad on the property prevents the construction of a new stable and corral or
placement of a set aside area. By granting this variance, the current or future property owners
are not precluded from applying for approval to construct a stable and corral at a future date if
a suitable location or construction plan is later identified. The property owner is merely relieved
from the obligation to identify and set aside an area for a stable and corral.
C. The granting of the variances would not be materially detrimental to the
public welfare or injurious to the properties or improvements in such vicinity.
Granting the variance to encroach into the front yard setback is not materially
detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The
additions and covered patio are located in areas that are already in the front setback. It is not
in close proximity to other properties or improvements in the vicinity.
The lack of a stable and corral set aside area will not be detrimental to the public
welfare or injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity since no development
would occur. Eliminating a set aside area will not negatively affect drainage or traffic circulation
to and from the property.
The variance from the stable and corral set aside will not be detrimental to the public, on
the contrary, it will be beneficial to the public welfare and other properties because by not
constructing a stable and corral, there will be no grading on the lot. If the set aside area was
placed on the lot, it would located on the steep slope.
146
Resolution No. 2024-04 (ZC 23-137)
29 Eastfield Drive (Aquino)

D. In granting the variances, the spirit and intent of the Zoning Ordinance will
be observed.
The granting of the variance will allow for a development that is harmonious in scale
and mass with the site, the propose addition is visually harmonious with adjacent properties
and in scale with adjacent residential development.
The elimination of a set aside area is consistent with other properties in the area that do
not have a stable and corral nor have a set aside area. The variance will make the property
more cohesive with the rural character of the neighborhood by eliminating grading needed for
a building pad.
The waiver to the stable and corral set aside area meets the intent of the Zoning
Ordinance as it will prevent extensive grading and disturbance on the property. It will also
preserve the environmentally sensitive nature of the site by protecting the slopes from any
construction. The size, topography, and configuration of the lot does not support the
construction of a stable and corral. By granting this variance, the current or future property
owners are not precluded from applying for approval to construct a stable and corral at a future
date if a suitable location or construction plan is later identified. The property owner is merely
relieved from the obligation to identify and set aside an area for a stable and corral.
E. The variances will not grant special privilege to the applicant.
The area for the garage addition and bedroom addition are located on the same building
pad as the existing residence. However, due to the configuration and topography of the lot, the
existing residence and garage already encroach into the front yard setback. The variance will
not grant a special privilege to the applicant.
The waiver of the stable and corral set aside area in this case will not grant special
privilege to the applicant. There are several properties in the City that do not lend themselves
to construction of a stable and corral, and if they were forced to either set aside an area or
construct such equestrian facilities it would require large grading quantities and large
disturbance of the lot. This would not meet the goal of the General Plan, which is to maintain to
the maximum extent feasible the natural terrain of the lots. The size, topography, and
configuration of the lot does not support the construction of a stable and corral. By granting this
variance, the current or future property owners are not precluded from applying for approval to
construct a stable and corral at a future date if a suitable location or construction plan is later
identified. The property owner is merely relieved from the obligation to identify and set aside an
area for a stable and corral.
F. The variances are consistent with the portions of the County of Los
Angeles Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and siting criteria for
hazardous waste facilities.
147
Resolution No. 2024-04 (ZC 23-137)
29 Eastfield Drive (Aquino)
7
The project site is not listed on the current State of California Hazardous Waste and
Substances Sites List. It will not affect any existing hazardous waste management facilities.
G. The variances are consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling
Hills.
Approvals granting the variance to allow the additions to encroach into the required
setback will be consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills, which encourages
residential uses. The size, topography, and configuration of the lot does not support the
construction of a stable and corral. By granting this variance, the current or future property
owners are not precluded from applying for approval to construct a stable and corral at a future
date if a suitable location or construction plan is later identified. The property owner is merely
relieved from the obligation to identify and set aside an area for a stable and corral.
Section 7. Approval Conditions. Based upon the foregoing findings, and the evidence
in the record, the Planning Commission hereby approves Zoning Case No. 23-137 subject to
the following conditions:
A. The Site Plan and Variance approvals shall expire within two years from the
effective date of approval as defined in RHMC Sections 17.46.080 and 17.38.070 unless
otherwise extended pursuant to the requirements of these sections.
B. If any condition of this resolution is violated, the entitlements granted by this
resolution shall be suspended and the privileges granted hereunder shall lapse and upon
receipt of written notice from the City, all construction work being performed on the subject
property shall immediately cease, other than work determined by the City Manager or his/her
designee required to cure the violation. The suspension and stop work order will be lifted once
the Applicant cures the violation to the satisfaction of the City Manager or his/her designee. In
the event that the Applicant disputes the City Manager or his/her designee’s determination that
