THE PLANNING COMMISSION DOES HEREBY FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. An application was duly filed by Mr. and Mrs. Popovich with respect to real property located at 1 Middleridge Lane South (Lot 167-UR), Rolling Hills, CA requesting a Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review to construct a 13,068 square feet regulation dressage arena (66' x 198'), with related grading of 6,900 cubic yards total and to relocate an existing 60' in diameter (approx. 2,800 square feet) lunging ring approximately 40 feet in a westerly direction. Variances are requested to construct the arena and ring in the front yard of the lot and to retain an "as built" gazebo in the front yard. No structures are proposed with this application. Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the application at. a field trip to the property on October 20, 2015 and at a regular Planning Commission meeting also on October 20, 2015. The applicants were 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 and their representatives were in attendance at the hearings. During the course of the proceedings, two neighbors testified in support of the project. Section 3. The property is zoned RAS-2 and contains 5.75 acres. The net lot area for development purposes is 231,047 square feet, or 5.30 acres. It is currently developed with a 4,556 square foot residence, 680 square foot covered porch, 2,263 square foot garage, 702 square foot swimming pool, 2,329 square foot stable with corrals, pool equipment, entryway, gazebo, chicken coop and small aviary. No changes are being proposed to these structures. The area of the proposed arena is currently used for equestrian uses as corrals and pastures, and a lunging ring exists in the vicinity of the proposed arena and will be relocated. Section 4. The City reviewed the proposed project's environmental impacts under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et Reso. 2015-22 1 1 Middleridge Lane S. • • seq., "CEQA") and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq., the "CEQA Guidelines") and determined the proposed project to be exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15303(e) (accessory structures) and Section 15061(b) (3) (Common Sense Exemption) of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 5. Section 17.18 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code permits approval of a corral over 550 square feet, and riding ring provided the Planning Commission approves a Conditional Use Permit. With respect to this request for a Conditional Use Permit, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. Conditionally permitted uses are not outright permitted by the Rolling Hills Municipal Code. The Commission must consider applications for conditional use permit and may, with such conditions as are deemed necessary, approve a conditional use which will not jeopardize, adversely affect, endanger or to otherwise constitute a menace to the public health, safety or general welfare or be materially detrimental to the property of other persons located in the vicinity of such use. B. The granting of a Conditional Use Permit for the construction of the rings would be consistent with the purposes and objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan because the use is consistent with similar uses in the community, and except for their location, meets all the applicable code development standards for a riding and lunging ring, and the area is located in an area on the property that is adequately sized to accommodate such uses. The proposed uses are appropriately located in that they will be sufficiently separated from nearby structures used for habitation or containing sleeping quarters. The uses would be constructed in furtherance of the General Plan goal of promoting and encouraging equestrian uses. C. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent structures have been considered, and the project will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the proposed rings orientation is not towards neighbors and its general location is of sufficient distance from nearby residences so as to not impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors. The proposed rings are to be located largely on an area already used for corrals and pasture, which would be graded out to accommodate a flat area for the rings. D. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain, and surrounding residences because the riding ring and arena complies with the low profile residential development pattern of the community and will not give the property an over -built look, and areas will remain open and unobstructed. The lot is 5.30 acres net in size and is sufficiently large to accommodate the proposed uses. E. The proposed conditional use, other than being proposed in the front yard area, complies with all applicable development standards of the zone district and requires a Conditional Use Permit pursuant to Sections 17.18.090 and 17,18.100 of the Zoning Ordinance. Reso. 2015-22 2 1 Middleridge Lane S. F. The proposed conditional uses are consistent with the portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities because the project site is not listed on the current State of California Hazardous Waste and Substances Sites List. Section 6. Section 17.46.030 requires a development plan to be submitted for Site Plan Review and approval before any grading requiring a grading permit may be commenced. With respect to the Site Plan Review application for the grading for riding arena andlunging ring of 6,900 cubic yards total (3,450 cy. cut and 3,450 cy. fill) to be balanced on site, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. The proposed development is compatible with the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance and surrounding uses because the proposed project complies with the General Plan requirement of low profile, low -density residential development with sufficient open space between surrounding uses. The development conforms to Zoning Code lot coverage requirements, as it is not counted for coverage because it is an open area. The proposed project will be landscaped to be screened from the road so as to reduce the visual impact of the development and a landscaping plan is required to be submitted. B. . The development plan substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage because the new uses will not cause the lot to look overdeveloped. The applicant is utilizing an area of the lot that is currently used for a corral and pasture for horses and there will not be substantial change to the undeveloped state of this portion of the lot. Additional significant portions of the lot will be left undeveloped so as to maintain open space on the property. The uses will be screened. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent uses, buildings, and structures and the topography of the lot have been considered, and the construction will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the proposed uses will be constructed on a portion of the lot which is least intrusive to surrounding properties, is located in an area previously developed with similar uses, but smaller, will be screened and landscaped with trees and shrubs, is of sufficient distance from nearby residences and will substantially utilize the existing area for the new grading. C. The proposed activity is compatible with the General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance. The Land Use Element of the General Plan establishes the maintenance of strict grading practices to preserve the community's natural terrain. The Building Code and the Zoning Ordinance require a balanced cut and fill ratio and do not permit import or export of soil, except under special circumstances applicable to a property and with a discretionary permission by the Planning Commission. The project conforms to the grading requirements and Zoning Code setbacks, except for its location in the front yard area of the lot. Reso. 2015-22 3 1 Middleridge Lane S. • • D. The proposed development, as conditioned, is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences. The lot coverage maximum set forth in the Zoning Code will not be affected, as the proposed uses are considered open space and are not counted towards coverage and the proposed project is consistent with the scale of the neighborhood and will substantially utilize the existing area currently used for corrals. The proposed project is in furtherance of City's goal to construct equestrian facilities. E. The proposed development is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles because the proposed development will not affect the existing on -site driveway approach that serves the residence. Adequate paths are provided for the horses to reach the uses from the existing stable. Section 7. Sections 17.38.010 through 17.38.050 of the Code permit approval of a variance from the standards and requirements of the Zoning Ordinance when, due to exceptional or extraordinary circumstances applicable to the property and not applicable to other similar properties in the same zone, strict application of the Code would deny the property owner substantial property rights enjoyed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone. The applicant seeks a variance from the requirement that front yard area of a lot be free of structures as well as corrals, riding rings and similar uses (Sections 17.18.090 and 17.18.100) and wishes to construct the equestrian rings and retain an existing gazebo that would be located in front of the leading edge of the residence, thus, in the front yard area of the lot. With respect to this request for a Variance, the' Planning Commission finds as follows: A. There are exceptional and extraordinary circumstances and conditions applicable to the subject property that do not apply generally to the other property or class of use in the same zone in that: existing residence occupies the rear portion of the lot, making it impossible, due to insufficient space in the rear, to locate the proposed riding arena and lunging ring such that it would conform to setbacks, yards and required separation of from the residence. In addition, the terrain in the remaining portion of the lot, presents constraints due to sloped conditions, and would still require a Variance due to the exceptionally large "front yard" based on the location of the residence at the rear of the lot. B. The Variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right possessed by other property in the same vicinity and zone, but which is denied to the property in question because due to the existing location of the house and other structures it would be a hardship to locate the rings in the rear. The expansive open space in the front yard comfortably supports the rings, as this area has been historically used for equestrian uses, such as corrals and pasture. The limited buildable area on the property due to steep slopes in the rear and sides places a hardship on locating the rings in the side or rear areas. The variance for the existing gazebo is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights Reso. 2015-22 4 1 Middleridge Lane S. possessed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone because many properties in the same vicinity and zone have outdoor amenities in the front. The existing location of the gazebo is the least visually intrusive to the property and its neighbors. The gazebo is screened by trees and other landscaping and has been on the property for many years. C. The granting of the Variance would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such vicinity and zone in which the property is located because the rings or the gazebo would not affect any neighbor's views and therefore property value and would be screened from them. The lot is located substantial distance from any neighbor and the uses would not be visible from them. Development of the equestrian uses in the front yard area will allow substantial portion of the rear of the lot to remain undeveloped. D. The variance is consistent with the portions of the County of Los Angeles Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. E. The variance request is consistent with the General Plan. The proposed project, together with the variance, will be compatible with the objectives, policies, general land uses and programs specified in the General Plan and will uphold the City's goals to protect and promote construction of equestrian facilities. Section 8. Based upon the foregoing findings in Section 6 and 7 the Planning Commission hereby approves Zoning Case No. 890 a Conditional Use Permit for a riding arena a lunging ring, a Site Plan .Review for grading, and Variance to retain the existing gazebo in the front yard area and locate the equestrian uses in the front yard area subject to the following conditions: A. The Conditional Use Permit, Variance and Site Plan Review approvals shall expire within two years from the effective date of approval as defined in Sections 17.38.070 17.46.080 and 17.42.070, unless otherwise extended pursuant to the requirements of these sections. B. It is declared and made a condition of this 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 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 this permit, or shown otherwise on an approved plan.
