This letter shall serve as notification that the Landscape Plan for bond calculation for
Zoning Case No. 639 has been APPROVED. I have only one copy of the plan. If you
would like an approved copy for your files, please submit another set for my approval.
In accordance with Resolution No. 2001-24, the bond shall be retained with the City for
not less than two years after landscape installation. The retained bond will be released
by the City Manager after the City Manager/Planning Director determines that the
landscaping was installed pursuant to the landscaping plan as approved, and that such
landscaping is properly established and in good condition.
The bond amount is $9,933 (the amount of the landscaping and irrigation cost, plus 15
%). We have on file a bond (Certificate of Time Deposit) in the amount of $21,275 for
your previous project, which expired. You may either let us keep that deposit, or
provide a deposit in the amount of $9,933, at which time we'll release the $21,275
deposit. Please let me know how you want to handle this.
Once the security deposit is finalized, your representative may come in at any time
between the hours of 7:30 AM and 5:00 PM any weekday to have your building plans
stamped for grading or building permits. The County of Los Angeles Building and
Safety Division may have different requirements for landscaping for the graded areas.
This approval applies only to City requirements.
Feel free to call me at (310) 377-1521 if you have any questions regarding this matter.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ROLLING HILLS GRANTING SITE PLAN REVIEW APPROVAL TO
PERMIT GRADING AND CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW SINGLE FAMILY
RESIDENCE TO REPLACE AN EXISTING SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE
AT 23 PORTUGUESE BEND ROAD IN ZONING CASE NO. 639.
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 Dr. Rizzi with respect to real
property located at 23 Portuguese Bend Road, (Lot 88-1-RH), Rolling Hills, CA
requesting a Site Plan Review to permit grading and construction of a new single family
residence to replace an existing residence.
Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings
to consider the application on September 18, 2001, October 16, 2001, and at a field trip
visit on October 8, 2001. The applicant was notified of the public hearings in writing by
first class mail. 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 applicant was
in attendance at the hearings.
Section 3. The Planning Commission finds that the project qualifies as a Class
3 Exemption (The State of CA Guidelines, Section 15303) and is therefore categorically
exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act.
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 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 by more than twenty-five percent (25%) in
any thirty-six (36) month period. With respect to the Site Plan Review application
requesting construction of the new house, the Planning Commission makes the
following findings of fact:
A. The proposed development is compatible with the General Plan, the
Zoning Ordinance and surrounding uses because the proposed structures comply 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 net lot area of the lot is 105,280 square
feet. The proposed residence (5,200 sq.ft.), garage '(600 sq.ft.), indoor swimming pool
(480 sq.ft.), and service yard (96 sq.ft.) will have 6,376 square feet of structures. The lot is
also developed with an existing barn (1,210 sq.ft.) and an existing water tank (880 sq.ft.),
for a total of 8,466 square feet of structures, which constitutes 8.0% of the net lot which
is within the maximum 20% structural lot coverage requirement. No basement is
• •
proposed for this development The total lot coverage including paved areas and
driveway will be 22,281 square feet, which equals 21.2% of the lot which is within the
35% maximum overall lot coverage requirement. The proposed project is screened from
the road so as to reduce the visual impact of the development. The disturbed area of the
lot will be 39.5%, which is within the 40% maximum permitted.
B. The development plan substantially preserves the natural and
undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage because the new
structure will not cause the lot to look overdeveloped. Significant portions of the lot will
be left undeveloped so as to maintain scenic vistas across the property. The structures
proposed will not be visible from Portuguese Bend Road. The nature, condition, and
development of adjacent uses, buildings, and structures and the topography of the lot
have been considered, and the construction of the new house with indoor swimming
pool will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the adjacent uses,
buildings, or structures because the proposed structure will be constructed on a portion
of the lot which is the least intrusive to surrounding properties, will be screened and
landscaped with trees and shrubs which at maturity will not exceed 25 feet in height, is
a sufficient distance from nearby residences so that the proposed structure will not
impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors, will permit the owners to enjoy
their property without deleterious infringement on the rights of surrounding property
owners.
C. The proposed development, 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 set forth in the Zoning Code will not be
exceeded and the proposed project is consistent with the scale of the neighborhood.
D. The development plan incorporates existing large trees and native
vegetation to the maximum extent feasible. Specifically, the development plan
preserves dense brush and shrubs and supplements it with landscaping that is
compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community.
E. The development plan follows natural contours of the site to minimize
grading and the natural drainage courses will continue to the south of this lot. Grading
for this project will involve 1,140 cubic yards of cut and 1,140 cubic yards of fill and will
be balanced on site.
F. 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.
G. The proposed development is sensitive and not detrimental to the
convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles because the proposed
project will utilize the existing driveway approach at the northern portion of the
property off Tally Hand Road for access. The existing driveway will be relocated
approximately ten feet to the east of its current location and will be restored to its
natural condition and will be landscaped. A portion of the existing driveway leading to
the stable will also be removed and the area landscaped.
RESOLUTION NO. 2001-24

Quality Act and is exempt.

Subject: Resolutions for Future Construction Projects
Reference: #200I-24
Dear Board Members:
We have two concerns that we would like you to reconsider. Because your meeting is during
a major holiday week, we will be unable to attend. However, we are resolute in our
objections to two issues,
I. Section T: Religious holidays are most often centered around the hour of sunset as in
the Jewish Holidays and Ramadan. You are allowing construction to extend past
sunset by establishing 6:00 pm as a stop work time. We are requesting 4:30 pm
deadline for the end of all construction activity. To even consider an eleven -hour
window for construction noise and activity six days a week is in our opinion too great
a burden for this city's residents!
2. Section S: In resolution number 2001-24, we would request that you more clearly
define the areas established for parking. Our experience with off site parking has been
very negative. In the case of Pine Tree Lane hydrants have been blocked, driveways
blocked and very serious issues of security have been ignored. To encourage
construction workers to park randomly has in the case of Pine Tree Lane, led to a ham
burglary.
We will appreciate you addressing these issues and especially appreciate a change in your
six -day a week, eleven hours per day construction schedule_
Thank you,
William Hassoldt

Subject: Computation of Lot Coverage and Impervious Surface Coverage
Dear Craig:
We request that the city reconsider the requirement to include the area of the pavement
that is outside of the Net Lot Area in the calculation of Lot Coverage and the Impervious
Surface Coverage. On recent projects we are being required to include these
pavement areas in our calculations of Lot Coverage and the Impervious Surface
Coverage.
Lot Coverage is specifically defined in Section 17.12.120 as that area of the net lot
area. This definition excludes areas outside of the net lot area.
Section 17.16.070 of the Code defines the Impervious Surface Coverage and Maximum
Disturbed Area and should not be construed as redefining Lot Coverage to include
areas outside of the Net Lot Area. The broad interpretation currently being used by the
City appears to be in direct conflict with the definition of Lot Coverage in Section
17.12.120. We believe including pavement areas outside the Net Lot Area in
calculations is not the intent of the Rolling Hills City Code and creates a hardship for
Rolling Hills residents wishing to make improvements to their property.
We appreciate your consideration of this matter.
Sincerely,
Ross N. Bolton, RCE 26120
President
