Owner wishes to construct a two (2) bedroom and one(1) bathroom addition to their existing residence.

This constitutes a reduction of nineteen (19) feet. Criteria to be satisfied for grant of Variance Such change is based upon the following described exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions that do not apply generally to other property in the 'same vicinity and zone. The topography at westerly portion of the existing residence would provide a more suitable area for construction. This area would require a minimum of grading as opposed to other portions of the site. Such change will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare nor injurious to the property or improvements in such vicinity and zone where pr-- y is lc.tated because. The addition to the residence would be compatible to the existing structure, as well as, requiring a minimum amount of grading. These major items• would be conducive to the surrounding sites and the community. FILING FEE A filing fee d. must accompany the application.

The land development permit process of the City and the RHCA are completely independent and separate. Both must be satisfied and approval given by both the City and the RHCA to develop property in Rolling Hills. An approval by either the City or the RHCA does not mean or imply or ensure approval by the other. The suggested sequence for property development is to obtain City approvals first.

M.B. 201 Tract project, including what iew. bathroom and remodel portions new arP.q eXcee(1C twenty-five Site Plan Review criteria upon which the Planning Commission must make an affirmative finding. Describe in detail the project's conformance to the below criteria: A. Is the project compatible with the General Plan, the ordinance and surrounding uses? Explain how it compares to set -backs and other characteristics of neighboring houses. Proposed new area is compatible with the community in scale characteristics. zoning sizes, and design B. Does the project preserve and integrate into the site design, to the maximum extent feasible, existing natural topographic features of the lot including surrounding native vegetation, mature trees, drainage courses, and land forms (such as hillsides and knolls)? Explain how the project preserves and integrates existing natural features. The proposed project is orientated in the most desired area relative to the topography. This then preserves the sites natural features. 5 C. Does the site development plan follow natural contours of the site to minimize grading; extensive grading and recontouring of existing terrain to maximize buildable area shall not be approved? Graded slopes shall be rounded and contoured so as to blend with existing terrain. Grading shall not modify existing drainage or re -direct drainage flow unless into an existing drainage courses. Explain the nature and extent of the impact of grading and proposed minimization measures. The proposed addition location affords a minimum amount of Qradanff and will not modify existing drainage courses. D. Does the site development plan preserve surrounding native vegetation and supplement it with landscaping that is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community? Landscaping should provide a buffer and transition zone between private and public areas. Explain how the project preserves native vegetation, integrates landscaping and creates buffers. Proposed minimum grading will be a factor in preserving the native vegetation and existing landscaping. E. Does the site development plan substantially preserve the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage? Lot coverage requirements shall be regarded as maximums and the actual amount of lot coverage permitted should depend upon the existing buildable area of the lot. Explain how the lot coverage croposed compares with lot coverage square footage and percentages on neighboring lots. The existing and proposed development is of a low percent coverage and is compatible with the neighboring lots. Is the site development plan harmonious in scale and mass with ze site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences? Setbacks tall be regarded as minimums and more restrictive setbacks shall be rposed where necessary to assure proportionality and openness. tplain how the proposed project setbacks compare with the existing tbacks of neighboring properties. The existing and proposed setbacks are comparable to the adjacent sites. 6 G. Is the site development plan sensitive and not detrimental to convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles? Explain how the number and types of vehicles relate to the driveway location, design, trip data and landscaping and other on -site parking or storage areas. The existing residence and family will not alter the vehicular or or pedestrian traffic. H. Does the site development plan conform with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act? Explain how the project impacts the environment, e.g., significant impact, proposed mitigation measures. To best of our knowledge, the proposed development will not have an impact on the environment and is compatible with the California Environmental Quality Act. I hereby certify that the statements furnished above, and in attached exhibits, present the data and information required for the site plan review criteria eevaluation to be the best of my ability; and, that the facts, statements and other information presented are true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief.
