THE MODIFICATION ENTAILS ADDITIONAL GRADING IN THE REAR YARD TO RELOCATE THE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED POOL, IN ZONING CASE NO. 746 MODIFICATION, AT 3 PACKSADDLE ROAD EAST, (LOT 25- SF), (LIN). 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 Mrs. Lin with respect to real property located at 3 Packsaddle Road East (Lot 25-SF), Rolling Hills, CA requesting a modification for additional grading of up to 681 cubic yards of dirt in the rear to raise the pad of the rear yard area by not to exceed 2 feet, changing the shape and orientation of the pool and constructing a 2.5 foot spillway on three sides of the infinity pool and locating the pool closer to the residence. The dirt is available on site and will not be imported. Section 2. The previous approval, granted by Resolution No. 2008-01 consisted of a Site Plan Review and Variances to permit grading and construction of a new 6,230 square foot single family residence, to fill the rear of the lot by no more than 4 feet to enlarge the building pad and to fill the front yard by no more than 1 foot -on the average for better drainage; 781 square foot garage, 559 square foot swimming pool, pool equipment area, 96 square foot service yard, 900 square feet of covered porches, 800 square feet of detached trellises and a barbecue area and 4,940 square foot basement; minor Variance to encroach with two of the basement light wells 4-feet into side yard setbacks, a Variance to set aside an area for a future stable and corral in the front yard area and a Variance to export 450 cubic yards of the 1,787 cubic yards of dirt. The new residence will be located 47 feet closer to the front of the lot than the further most point of the previous house. Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the application for modification of the previously approved application on June 21, 2011, July 19 2011 and at a field visit to the property on July 19, 2011. Section 4. The applicant and neighbors were notified of the above -referenced hearings in writing by first lass mail. Evidence was heard and presented from all persons interested in affecting said proposal, from all persons protesting the same, and from members of the City staff at each of the hearings. The applicant's representatives were in attendance at the hearings. Section 5. The Planning Commission finds that the project qualifies as a Class 1 Exemption [State CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301(e)] and is therefore categorically exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act. Section 6. Section 17.46.030 requires a development plan to be submitted for Site Plan Review and approval before any grading requiring a grading permit or any building or structure may be constructed. In addition this property was previously conditioned that any further grading and development, from what was previously approved, shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission. With respect to the Modification of the Site Plan application for additional grading to raise a portion of the rear area by 2 feet and construct an infinity pool with a 2.5-foot spillway above the raised grade, the Planning Commission makes the following findings of fact: A. The proposed grading and relocation of the pool complies with and is consistent with the intent of the General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance because the grading will not look unnatural and the area will be landscaped. Reso. 2011-09 Mod. 3 Packsaddle E. B. The project substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage. C. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences because the proposal preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing tiers on the property. Significant portions of the lot will be left undeveloped so as to maintain open space on the property. The project will be screened from the street and neighbors by shrubs. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent uses, buildings, and structures and the topography of the lot have been considered, and the additional grading will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the modified grading would be done away from the surrounding properties and will be further screened and landscaped with trees and shrubs. The result is a more aesthetically pleasing look for the property, without compromising the stability of the lot. D. The modified grading preserves and integrates into the site design previously approved topographic features beyond the limits of the proposed grading. The end result is the creation of same effect, but slightly higher than previously approved. E. Grading will not modify previously approved drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow. A revised drainage plan will be submitted to Los Angeles County Building and Safety for review and approval. F. The project preserves surrounding native vegetation and mature trees and supplements these elements with drought -tolerant landscaping. A landscaping plan is on file with the City, which is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community and protects privacy of the adjacent residences. Section 7. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning Commission hereby approves a modification to Zoning Case No. 746 on subject property, pursuant to the plan on file dated June 16, 2011 and consisting of additional grading of 681 cubic yards of dirt to raise by not to exceed 2 feet the rear yard area of the lot; to construct an infinity pool with a 2.5 foot spillway from the new grade on three sides of the pool and to relocate the pool loser to the residence. Section 8. All other conditions of Resolution No. 2008-01 in Zoning Case No. 746 shall be in full force and effect. PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 19T DAY OF JULY, 2011. l/.Yri JIL .
