RESOLUTION NO. 92-8
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ROLLING HILLS GRANTING SITE PLAN REVIEW APPROVAL FOR A PROPOSED
NEW RESIDENCE IN ZONING CASE NO. 454.
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 Lynn,
with respect to real property located at 3 Middleridge Lane South,
Rolling Hills (Lot 253-B-UR) requesting Site Plan Review approval
for a proposed new residence.
Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed
public hearing to consider the application for a Site Plan Review
on May 21, 1991, June 25, 1991, July 16, 1991, August 20, 1991,
September 17, 1991, October 22, 1991, November 19, 1991, December
17, 1991, January 21, 1992 and conducted field trip visits on May
30, 1991 and January 11, 1992.
Section 3. The Planning Commission finds that the project is
categorically exempt from environmental review under the California
Environmental Quality Act pursuant to a Class 3 exemption provided
by Section 15303 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
Section 4. Section 17.34.010 requires a development plan to
be submitted for site plan review and approval before 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 more than twenty-five percent (25%) in any
thirty-six month period. The applicant has proposed to construct a
new single family residence on the subject site.
Section 5. 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 133,699 square feet. The proposed
residence of 7,970 square feet, garage of 1,200 square feet, a 500
square foot swimming pool, a_ 450 square foot stable and a 96 square
foot service yard will have 10,216 square feet which constitutes
7.64% of the lot which is within the maximum 20% structural lot
coverage requirement. The total lot coverage including paved areas
and driveway will be 24,916 square feet which equals 18.64% of the
lot, which is within the 35% maximum overall lot coverage
requirement. The proposed project replaces the existing house in
w
RESOLUTION NO. 92-8
PAGE 2
the same location on a relatively large lot which provides adequate
open space. The proposed structure conforms with the natural
topographic features of the lot and the area being graded will
provide a new pad that will conform with the existing pad located
on the site. The project is similar and compatible with scale of
several neighboring developments.
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 because
only the building pad will be graded and, subject to conditions
attached to this approval, most of the mature trees will not be
removed, thereby retaining the current drainage pattern and
landscape screening for the site.
C. The development plan follows natural contours of the
site and drainage courses will continue naturally away from the
building pad.
D. The development plan, subject to conditions attached to
this approval, incorporates existing large trees and native
vegetation to the maximum extent feasible and supplements it with
landscaping that is compatible with and enhances the rural
character of the community.
E. 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. Significant portions of the lot will
be left undeveloped.
F. The proposed development is harmonious in scale and mass
with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences
because as indicated in Paragraph A, lot coverage maximum will not
be exceeded and the proposed project is of consistent scale with
the neighborhood. The ratio of the proposed structure to lot
coverage is similar to the ratio found on several properties in the
vicinity.
G. The proposed development is sensitive and not
detrimental to convenience and safety of circulation for
pedestrians and vehicles because the proposed project will utilize
the existing vehicular access, thereby having no further impact on
the roadway.
H. The project conforms with the requirements of the
California Environmental Quality Act and is categorically exempt
from environmental review.
RESOLUTION NO. 92-8
PAGE 3
Section 6. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning
Commission hereby approves the Site Plan Review for a proposed new
residence at 3 Middleridge Lane South in accordance with the

of thirty (30) days.
C. All requirements of 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 except as
otherwise provided in these conditions.

landscaping plan submitted must comply with the purpose and intent
of the Site Plan Review Ordinance, shall incorporate existing
mature trees and native vegetation, and shall utilize to the
maximum extent feasible, plants that are native to the area and/or
consistent with the rural character of the community. The
landscape plan shall also incorporate and preserve, to the maximum
extent feasible, the existing trees and vegitation located at the
base of the proposed slope between the building pad and driveway.
A bond in the amount of the cost estimate of the implementation of
the landscaping plan plus 15% shall be required to be posted prior
to issuance of a grading and building permit and shall be retained
with the City for not less than two years after landscape

techniques in its design so as to create slopes that blend with the
natural horizontal and vertical contours of the existing terrain
and in no case shall cut and fill slopes be steeper than the City
of Rolling Hills standard of 2 to 1 slope ratio. Special emphasis
shall be given to the proposed fill slope off Middleridge Lane
South to undulate and vary its contours.

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.

application for approval by the Planning Commission.

Dear Mr. Roberts:
I herewith respectfully request a time extension for the site review

The reason for the extension is the architect and myself are in the
middle of reducing the size of the house and the amount of the grading.
We will not have this completed and approved by the client in time for

Your consideration is appreciated.
