A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF ROLLING HILLS AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF A
CONDITIONAL CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR A LOT LINE
ADJUSTMENT TO MERGE TWO EXISTING LOTS INTO ONE LOT
FOR PROPERTY AT 60 EASTFIELD DRIVE (LOT 105-EF) AND A N
ADJACENT VACANT LOT TO THE NORTH (LOT 104-A-EF) IN
ZONING CASE NO. 596A.
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. Robert T. Wolfenden with
respect to real property located at 60 Eastfield Drive (Lot 105-EF) that is 2.082 acres
and- an adjacent vacant lot to the north (Lot 104-A-EF) that is 1.42 acres, requesting a
Certificate of Compliance for a Lot Line Adjustment to remove the common side lot
line dividing the two parcels so that one 3.502 acre irregular lot is created by the
merger of the two existing lots. .
Section 2. California Government Code Subsection 66412(d) authorizes . lot
line adjustments without requiring a tentative map, parcel map orfinal map if: (A)
the lot line adjustment involves two or more existing adjacent parcels, where land is
proposed to be taken from one parcel and added. to an adjacent parcel; (B) a greater
number of 'parcels than • originally existed is not thereby created; (C) the lot : line
adjustment will create parcels that conform to local zoning and building ordinances;
and (D) the lot line adjustment is approved by the City. The City may impose
conditions on the Lot Line Adjustment in order to make the lot conform to local
zoning and building ordinances, to require the prepayment of real property taxes
prior to the approval of the Lot Line Adjustment or to facilitate the relocation of
existing infrastructure or easements.
Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public
hearing to consider the application at a regular meeting on July 20, 1999, August 17,
1999; and at , a field trip visit on July 27, 1999. During thehearing process, the
applicant separately requested Site Plan Review under Zoning Case No. 596B for the
construction of residential additions to the existing residence at 60 Eastfield Drive
proposed to span the existing side lot line dividing the two parcels at the south side
of Lot 104-A-EF and •the north side of Lot 105-EF and that will require grading.
Section 4. The Planning Commission finds that the project is categorically
exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality
Act pursuant to a Class 5 exemption provided by Section 15305 of the State CEQA
Guidelines.
RESOLUTION NO. 99-14

Section 5. The Planning Commission has considered the evidence, both
written and oral, presented in connection with this application and finds as follows:
A. Section 16.16.010(B) of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance and
Section 17.16.060(A) of the Rolling Hills Zoning Ordinance requires that each lot in
any subdivision in the RA-S-1 Zone shall have a net area of not less forty-three
thousand, five hundred sixty square feet (1.0 acre). The proposed lot line adjustment
will result in the combined new lot being 3.502 net acres exclusive of: (a) any and all
perimeter easements measured to a minimum lineal distance of ten feet
perpendicular to the property lines; (b) any. portion of the lot or parcel of land used
for roadway purposes; and (c) any private drive or driveway which provides access to
any other lot or parcel of land.
B. Section 16.16.020 of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance and
Section 17.16.060(B)(3) of the Rolling Hills Zoning Ordinance require that in all cases
where practicable, the sidelines of lots shall be at approximate right angles or radial
to the street upon which such lot fronts. The existing sidelines of both lots are
approximately at right angles or radial to Eastfield Drive. The proposed adjustment
will allow the northerly side lot line of the combined Lots 104-A-EF and 105-EF to be
at right angles or radial to Eastfield Drive. The proposed adjustment will allow the
southerly side, lot line of the combined Lots 104-A-EF and 105-EF to be at right angles
or radial to Eastfield Drive.
C. Section 16.20.230 of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance requires
that ten (10) foot wide easements be dedicated for bridle trail and utility purposes
over the strips and portions of land within, and abutting upon the sidelines and rear
lines of each lot. The proposed lot line adjustment to combine Lots 104-A-EF and
105-EF, an irregular lot, shall continue ten (10) foot easements along the northerly
side lot line, twenty-five (25) foot easements along the easterly side lot line for 133.42
feet, ten (10) foot easements along the northerly side lot line for 80 feet, twenty-five
(25) foot easements along the easterly rear lot line, and twenty-five (25) foot
easements along the southerly side lot line.
D. Conditions have been attached to this approval which provide that it
will not impair or limit the City's application of the Site Plan Review Ordinance to
any future development of the combined Lots 104-A-EF and 105-EF.
Section 6. In . accordance with the foregoing findings, a Conditional
Certificate of Compliance for lot line adjustment sought in Zoning Case No 596A as
indicated on the map attached hereto as Exhibit "A" is hereby approved as a
Conditional Certificate of Compliance subject to the following conditions:
A. There shall continue to be ten (10) foot easements along the northerly
side lot line, twenty-five (25) foot easements along the easterly side lot line for 133.42
feet, ten (10) foot easements along the northerly side lot line for 80 feet, twenty-five
(25) foot easements along the easterly rear lot line, and twenty-five (25) foot

easements along the southerly side lot line within the adjusted boundary of the
combined Lots 104-A-EF and 105-EF. The map attached to the Conditional
Certificate of Compliance, referred hereto as Exhibit "A" shall delineate and note the
easements specified in this paragraph.
B. The lot line adjustment shall not in any way constitute any
representation that the adjusted combined Lots 104-A-EF and 105-EF can be
developed in compliance with current zoning and building ordinance standards.
No development shall occur on the property without first complying with all
applicable City Building and Zoning requirements and other applicable rules . and
regulations.
C. The lot line adjustment shall not in any respect limit or impair the
City's application of the Site Plan Review Ordinance (Ordinance No 221, 1988) to the
combined Lots 104-A-EF and 105-EF at such time as an application is made for
development.
D. The Certificate of Lot Line Adjustment shall not be issued until a legal
description complying with the delineation of adjustment and the required
easements as specified in Paragraph A of Section 6 are submitted to, and approved by.
the City. Upon the City's approval of the legal description, the Conditional
Certificate. of Compliance shall be issued by the City, shall be recorded by the
property owner in the offices of the Los Angeles County Recorder,, and evidence of
the recordation shall be returned to the City.
E. The applicant shall record the deeds effectuating the transfer
concurrently with the Certificate of Compliance for the Lot Line Adjustment and
shall submit proof of such recordation to the City of Rolling Hills.
F. The applicant shall submit proof of payment of 1998-1999 property
taxes.

Compliance and deeds if the site plan review application in Zoning Case No. 596B is
not approved.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING SITE PLAN REVIEW APPROVAL
TO CONSTRUCT A STABLE WITH LOFT AND ADJACENT
CORRAL AND SUBSTANTIAL ONE-STORY ADDITIONS TO AN
EXISTING TWO-STORY SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE THAT WILL
REQUIRE GRADING IN ZONING CASE NO. 596B.
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. Robert T. Wolfenden with
respect to real property located at 60 Eastfield Drive (Lots 104-A-EF & 105-EF), Rolling
Hills, requesting Site Plan Review to permit the construction of stable with loft and
adjacent corral and substantial one-story additions to an existing two-story single
family residence that will require grading. During the hearing process, typographical
errors in the size of the addition were corrected to. show a reduction in size of the
proposed addition and the request was revised to include a basement beneath , the
one-story addition, previously described without a basement. As a consequence of
the basement addition, the grading quantities were reduced, the building pad sizes
were reduced, the maximum disturbed area was reduced, and the slope access to the
stable and corral was made more gradual. Separately,a request for a Lot Line
Adjustment to merge two legal lots at 60'.Eastfield Drive (Lot 105-EF).and an adjacent
vacant lot to the north (Lot '104-A-EF) in Zoning Case No. 596A was approved by the
Planning Commission by Resolution No. 99-14.
Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public
hearing to consider the application on July 20, 1999, August 17, 1999, and September
21, 1999, and at a field trip visit on July 27, 1999. The applicant 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 applicant was in attendance at
the hearing.
Section 3. The Planning Commission finds that the project qualifies as a
Class 1 Exemption (State CA Guidelines, Section 15301(e)) 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
RESOLUTION NO. 99-15
Page 1 of 7
• 01 0100080
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, 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 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 133,520 square feet. The proposed residence (4,260 sq.ft.),
garage (480 sq.ft.), swimming pool (578 sq.ft.), stable (1,200 sq.ft.), and service yard (96
sq.ft.) will have 6,614 square feet which constitutes 4.95% of the lot which is within
the maximum 20% structural lot coverage requirement. The total lot coverage
including paved areas and driveway will be 17,048 square feet which equals 12.77%
of the lot, which is within the 35% maximum overalllot coverage requirement. The
proposed project is screened from the road so as to reduce the visual impact of the
development. The residential building pad coverage will not exceed 28.98%, the
stable and recreation court pad will not exceed 14.7%, and total building pad
coverage will not exceed 24.6%.
B. The proposed' development preserves and 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). The lot slopes downward and most of the
mature trees will not be removed. Grading will be done to provide approved
drainage that will flow away from the proposed residence and existing neighboring
residences.
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 will not be exceeded and the proposed
project is consistent . with the scale of residences in the neighborhood when
compared to the large size of this irregular -shaped lot. The ratio of the proposed
structure to lot coverage is similar to the ratio found on several properties in the
vicinity.
D. The development plan follows natural contours of the site to
minimize grading and the natural drainage courses will continue to the canyons at
the east side (rear) of this lot.
E. 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 and supplements it with landscaping that
is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community.
RESOLUTION NO. 99-15
Page 2 of 7
• 01 G1a0080 y
F. The development plan incorporates grading that will not modify
existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, unless such flow is redirected
into an existing drainage course.
G. The development plan substantially preserves the natural and
undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage because the new
structures will not cause the structural and total lot coverage to be exceeded. The
development plans as proposed will minimize impact on Eastfield Drive. Most of
the additions proposed will not be visible from Eastfield Drive. Significant portions
of the lot will be left undeveloped so as to maintain scenic vistas across portions of
the property.
H. 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 existing driveways at the western portion of the
property off Eastfield Drive for access.
I. The project conforms with the requirements of the California
Environmental Quality Ad and is categorically exempt from environmental
review.
Section 5. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning Commission
hereby approves the Site Plan Reviewapplication for Zoning Case No. 596B for
proposed residentialadditions as indicated onthe development : plan incorporated
herein as Exhibit A and is 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 17.38.070(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 begin 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 Buildings and Construction Ordinance, the
Zoning Ordinance, and of the zone in which the subject property is located must be
complied with unless otherwise set forth in the Permit, or shown otherwise on an
approved plan.
D. .The lot shall be developed and maintained in substantial conformance
with the site plan on file marked Exhibit A and dated August 26, 1999, except as
otherwise provided in these conditions.

FOR PROPERTY AT 60 EASTFIELD DRIVE (LOT 105-EF) AND A N
ADJACENT VACANT LOT TO THE NORTH (LOT 104-A-EF) IN
ZONING CASE NO. 596A.
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. Robert T. Wolfenden with
respect to real property located at 60 Eastfield. Drive (Lot 105-EF) that is 2.082 acres
and- an adjacent vacant lot to the north (Lot 104-A-EF) that is 1.42 acres, requesting a.
Certificate of Compliance for a Lot Line Adjustment to remove the common side lot
line dividing the two parcels so that one 3.502 : acre irregular lot is created by the
merger of the'two existing. lots.
Section 2. California Government Code Subsection 66412(d) authorizes lot
line adjustments without requiring a tentative map, parcel map or final map if: (A)
the lot .line'. adjustment involves two or more existing adjacent.. parcels, where land is -
proposed to -be taken- from' one parcel and added -to. an adjacent parcel; (B) a greater.
number of parcels than originally existed is not thereby created; (C) the lotline
adjustment will create parcels that conform to local zoning and building ordinances; -
and (D) the lot line adjustment is approved by the City. The City may impose
conditions on the Lot Line Adjustment in order to make the lot conform to local •
zoning and building ordinances, to require the prepayment of real property taxes
prior to the approval of the Lot Line Adjustment or to facilitate the relocation of
existing infrastructure or easements.
Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public
hearing to consider the application at a regular meeting on July 20, 1999, August 17,
1999, and at a field trip visit on July 27, 1999. During the hearing process, the
applicant separately requested Site Plan Review under Zoning Case No. 596B for the
construction of residential additions to the existing residence at 60 Eastfield Drive
proposed to span the existing side lot line dividing the two parcels at the south side
of Lot 104-A-EF and the north side of Lot 105-EF and that will require grading.

Section 5. The Planning Commission has considered the evidence, both
written and oral, presented in connection with this application and finds as follows:
A. Section 16.16.010(B) of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance and
Section 17.16.060(A) of the Rolling Hills Zoning Ordinance requires that each lot, in
any subdivision in the RA-S-1 Zone shall have a net area of not less forty-three
thousand, five hundred sixty square feet (1.0 acre). The proposed lot line adjustment
will result in the combined new lot being 3.502 net acres exclusive of: (a) any and all
perimeter easements measured to a minimum lineal distance of ten feet
perpendicular to the property lines; (b) any portion of the lot or parcel of land used
for roadway purposes; and (c) any private drive or driveway which provides access to
any other lot or parcel of land.
B. Section 16.16.020 of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance and
Section 17.16.060(B)(3) of the Rolling Hills Zoning Ordinance require that in all cases
where practicable, the sidelines of lots shall be at approximate right angles or radial
to the street upon which such lot fronts. The existing sidelines of both lots are
approximately at right angles or radial to Eastfield Drive. The proposed adjustment
will allow the northerly side lot line of the combined. Lots 104-A-EF and 105-EF to be
at right angles or radial to Eastfield Drive. The proposed adjustmentwill allow the
southerly side lot line of the combined Lots 104-A-EF and 105-EF to be at right angles
or radial to Eastfield Drive.
C. Section 16.20.230 of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance. requires
that ten (10) foot wide easements be dedicated for bridle .trail and utility' purposes
over the strips and portions of land within and abutting upon the sidelines' and rear
lines of each lot. The proposed lot line adjustment to combine Lots 104-A-EF and
105-EF, an irregular lot, shall continue ten (10) foot easements along the northerly
side lot line, twenty-five (25) foot easements along the easterly side lot line for 133.42
feet, ten (10) foot easements along the northerly side lot line for 80 feet, twenty-five
(25) foot easements along the easterly rear lot line, and twenty-five (25) foot
easements along the southerly side lot line.
D. Conditions have been attached to this approval which provide that it
will not impair or limit the City's application of the Site Plan Review Ordinance to
any future development of the combined Lots 104-A-EF and 105-EF.
Section 6. In accordance with the foregoing findings, a Conditional
Certificate of Compliance for lot line adjustment sought in Zoning Case No 596A as
indicated on the map attached hereto as Exhibit "A" is hereby approved as a
Conditional Certificate of Compliance subject to the following conditions:
A. There shall continue to be ten (10) foot easements along the northerly
side lot line, twenty-five (25) foot easements along the easterly side lot line for 133.42
feet, ten (10) foot easements along the northerly side lot line for 80 feet, twenty-five

combined Lots 104-A-EF and 105-EF. The map attached to the Conditional
Certificate of Compliance, referred hereto as Exhibit "A" shall delineate and note the

applicable City Building and Zoning requirements and other applicable rules and
regulations.

development.
