A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF ROLLING HILLS APPROVING A REQUEST FOR A
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A
TENNIS COURT AT AN EXISTING SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE
IN ZONING CASE NO. 593.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS DOES HEREBY
FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. An application was duly filed by Mr. and Mrs. Robert Nagelhout
with respect to real property located at 16 Crest Road West (Lot 74-A-MS), Rolling
Hills, requesting a Conditional Use Permit to construct a tennis court at an existing
single family residence.
Section 2. On March 9, 1991, the Planning Commission approved a
Variance to the front yard setback and Site Plan Review for the construction of a new
single family residence to replace an existing residence, and denial of a Conditional
Use Permit for a pool house at the site in Zoning Case No. 438 by Resolution No. 91-
3, dated March 9, 1991. Building permits were issued to Mr. Hussain Shaikh for the
new residence on February 12, 1993. Since that time, construction at the site has been
sporadic. Most recently, the Nagelhouts bought the property and acquired building
permits on July 2, 1998 to complete the 7,742 square foot residence.
Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public
hearing to consider the application for the Conditional Use Permit on January 19,
1999 and February 16, 1999, and at a field trip visit on February 6, 1999. The
applicants were notified of the public hearing in writing by first class mail and
through the City's newsletter. Evidence was heard and presented from all persons
interested in affecting said proposal, from all persons protesting the same, and from
members of the City staff and the Planning Commission having reviewed, analyzed
and studied said proposal. The applicants were in attendance at the hearing. The
Commission expressed concerns about further development on the lot and
retention of the existing horse trail across the southwestern portion of the property
which was conditioned by the previous approval of the Planning Commission to be
relocated along the interior of the south and westerly property line. Members of
Caballeros were present at the field trip.
Section 4. On January 5, 1999, Planning staff prepared an initial study for
the project. The initial study found that the project would not have a significant
effect on the environment if certain measures were included in the project. The
Negative Declaration was prepared with thosemitigation measures and was
circulated to the applicant and other interested parties in accordance with State of
California CEQA Guidelines. The public notice of the Planning Commission's
intent to recommend approval of the Negative Declaration was published on
January 9, 1999. Copies of the Negative Declaration were sent to adjacent cities and
RESOLUTION NO.99-10
PAGE 1 OF 6
99 1022118 .
other government agencies. No comments on the Negative Declaration were
received.
Section 5. The Planning Commission has reviewed the proposed Negative
Declaration and finds that it represents the independent judgment of the City and
that it was prepared in compliance with CEQA. Therefore, the Commission finds
that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the
environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because mitigation
measures have been added to the project, and are incorporated herein by reference.
Based upon these findings, the Planning Commission hereby adopts the mitigated
Negative Declaration in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act.
Section 6. Section 17.16.210(A)(7) of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code
allows for the construction of an inset tennis court with certain conditions provided
a Conditional Use Permit for such use is approved by the Rolling Hills Planning
Commission. With respect to this request for a Conditional Use Permit, the
Planning Commission finds as follows:
A. The granting of a Conditional Use Permit for the construction of an
inset tennis court would be consistent with the purposes and objectives of the
Zoning Ordinance and General Plan and will be desirable for the public convenience
and welfare because the use is consistent with similar and appropriately located uses
in the community, and the area proposed for the tennis court would be located in an
area on the property that is near property used for the La Cresta School and will not
have a material impact on that property.
B. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent uses, buildings,
and structures have been considered, and the construction of a tennis court will not
adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, buildings, or
structures because the proposed tennis court will be constructed on a portion of the
secondary building pad, will be the least intrusive to surrounding properties as it
will be inset, will be located near a public school district complex and playing field,
and is a sufficient distance from nearby residences so that the tennis court will not
impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors.
C. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural
terrain, and surrounding residences because the tennis court will comply with the
low profile residential development pattern of the community and is located on a
2.624 acre parcel of property that is adequate in size, shape and topography to
accommodate such use.
D. The proposed conditional use complies with all applicable
development standards of the zone district because the graded area will not exceed
maximum graded areas of 10,000 square feet and does not exceed maximum cubic
yardage of 750 cubic yards. The applicants propose a graded area of 9,120 square feet
and a balanced cut of 360 cubic yards and 360 cubic yards of fill.
RESOLUTION NO. 99-10
PAGE 2 OF 6
99 1022118
E. The proposed conditional use is consistent with the portions of the Los
Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan related 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.
F. The proposed conditional use observes the spirit and intent of Title 17
of the Zoning Code because a future stable structure and corral is proposed for the
project.
Section 8. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning Commission
hereby approves the request for a Conditional Use Permit in Zoning Case No. 593
for a proposed 7,000 square foot tennis court, as shown on the Development Plan
dated January 5, 1999 and marked Exhibit A, is subject to the following conditions:

otherwise extended pursuant to the requirements of that section.
B. It is declared and made a condition of the Conditional Use Permit
approval, that if any conditions thereof are violated, this approval shall be
suspended and the privileges granted thereunder shall lapse; provided that the
applicant has been given written notice to cease such violation, the opportunity for
a hearing has been provided, and if requested, has been held, and thereafter the
applicant fails to correct the violation within aperiod of thirty (30) days from the
date of the City's determination.
C. All requirements of the Building and Construction Ordinance, the
Zoning Ordinance, and of the zone in which the subject property is located must be
complied with unless otherwise approved by Variance.
D. The lot shall be developed and maintained in substantial conformance
with the site plan on file marked Exhibit A dated January 5, 1999, except as otherwise

32.75%.
