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. Tien (Tony) Zee and Ms. Colette Zee, Intex Properties Corporation with respect to real property located at 3 Crest Road West (Lot 115-1-RH), Rolling Hills requesting Site Plan Review to authorize the continued existence of an existing illegally graded hillside area at an existing single family residence that affects property at 2 Quail Ridge Road North (Lot 115-2-RH). The applicants voluntarily reported the illegal grading and made application on December 28, 1998. Section 2. On November 1, 1995, the Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit to permit the construction of a 330 square foot pool house at the northwest portion of the lot and Site Plan Review was approved for the development of the pool area that required grading. The project was abandoned by the applicants when they decided not to build the pool house but instead build a pool only, in -the rear yard at the northeast portion,of the lot that did not require Site Plan Review. The soil from the pool excavation was used to fill the illegally graded hillside area. Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the application for Site Plan Review 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 and from members of the City staff and the Planning Commission having reviewed, analyzed and studied said proposal. The applicants' representative was in attendance at the hearing. Members of Caballeros were in attendance at the field trip. A letter from Mr. Karl Fjoslien, LAGreens, A Division of Landscape West, was introduced that described two railroad tie landscape walls at the northwest and northeast corners of the lot that are founded in dirt and do not have a concrete foundation. The northwest wall crosses the northern adjoining property line and includes approximately 190 square feet of that property. Section 4. 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 or any expansion, addition, alteration RESOLUTION NO. 99-9 PAGE 1 OF 5 t • • or repair to existing buildings may be made which involve changes to grading or an increase to the size of the building or structure by at least 1,000 square feet and has the effect of increasing the size of the building or structure by more than 25% in any 36-month period. The applicant requests Site Plan Review to authorize the continued existence of an existing illegally graded hillside area at an existing single family residence at 3 Crest Road West (Lot 115-1-RH), an area covering approximately 15,400 square feet and up to 4.5 feet in depth that affects 190 square feet of the property at 2 Quail Ridge Road North (Lot 115-2-RH). With respect to the Site Plan Review application, the Planning Commission makes the following findings of fact: A. The existing illegal grading is compatible with the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance and surrounding uses because the proposed structure complies with the General Plan requirement of low profile, low density residential development with sufficient open space between surrounding structures. The project conforms to Zoning Code setback and lot coverage requirements. The lot has a net square foot area of 98,700 square feet. The existing residence (7,193 sq.ft.), garage (748 sq.ft.), swimming pool (914 sq.ft.), future stable (450 sq.ft.), guest house (675 sq.ft.), and service yard (96 sq.ft.) has 10,308 square feet which constitutes 10.4% of the lot which is within the maximum 20% structural lot coverage requirement. The total lot coverage including paved areas and driveway has 18,937 square feet which equals 19.2% of the lot, which is within the 35% maximum overall lot coverage requirement. B. The illegal grading integrates 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) because a minimum amount of grading would be allowed to remain to provide drainage that will flow away from the graded area, landscape walls, the existing residence, and neighboring residences. C. The illegal grading, as conditioned, is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences. As indicated in Paragraph A, the lot coverage maximum will not be exceeded and the project is consistent with the scale of the neighborhood when compared to this irregular - shaped lot. Grading shall be permitted only to restore the natural slope of the property. D. The development plan incorporates existing large trees and native vegetation to the maximum extent feasible. Specifically, the development plan preserves several mature trees and shrubs. E. The development plan substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage because the future stable structure will not cause the structural and total lot coverage to be exceeded. Further, the proposed project is designed to minimize grading. Significant portions RESOLUTION NO. 99-9 PAGE 2 OF 5 • • of the lot will be left undeveloped so as to maintain scenic vistas across the northwesterly portions of the property. F. The development plan incorporates grading that will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, except to redirect flow into an existing drainage course. G. The development plan 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. H. The illegal development is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles because the proposed project will utilize the same driveway to Crest Road West for access. I. The project conforms with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and is categorically exempt from environmental review. Section 5. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning Commission hereby approves the Site Plan Review application for Zoning Case No. 592 to authorize the continued existence of an existing illegally graded hillside area at an existing single family residence that affects property at 2 Quail . Ridge Road North (Lot 115-2-RH) as indicated on the development plan incorporated herein as Exhibit A and subject to the following conditions: A. The Site Plan Review approval shall expire within one year from the effective date of approval as defined in Section 17.46.080(A) unless otherwise extended pursuant to the requirements of that section. B. It is declared and made a condition of the Site Plan Review 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 a period 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. Grading shall not exceed 820 cubic yards of cut soil and 820 cubic yards of fill soil. RESOLUTION NO. 99-9 PAGE 3 OF 5 • • E. Any new garden or retaining walls shall require Planning Department review and approval. F. Structural coverage of the residential building pad shall not exceed 21.4% and structural coverage of the pool pad shall not exceed 6.4%. G. Prior to the submittal of an applicable final grading plan to the County of Los Angeles for plan check, a detailed grading and drainage plan with related geology, soils and hydrology reports that conform to the development plan as approved by the Planning Commission must be submitted to the Rolling Hills Planning Department staff for their review. Cut and fill slopes must conform to the City of Rolling Hills standard of 2 to 1 slope ratio. H. The project must be reviewed and approved by the Rolling Hills Community Association Architectural Review Committee prior to the issuance of any building or grading permit. I. The working drawings submitted to the County Department of Building and Safety for plan check review must conform to the development plan approved with this application. J. The applicant shall execute an Affidavit of Acceptance of all conditions of this Site Plan Review, or the approval shall not be effective. K. All conditions of this Site Plan Review approval must be complied with prior to the issuance of a building or grading permit, from the County of Los Angeles.
