RESIDENCE AT 5 HILLSIDE LANE IN ZONING CASE NO. 608. -� THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS DOES HEREBY FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: • Section 1. Applications were duly filed by Mr. and Mrs. Robert. Gaudenti with respect to real property located at 5 Hillside Lane (Lot 126-C-RH), Rolling Hills, CA requesting a Conditional Use Permit to permit the construction of a pool cabana, request for a Conditional Use Permit to permit the construction of a riding ring, and request for Site Plan Review to permit grading for the construction of substantial residential additions, a cabana, a stable, relocation of a pool/spa and the riding ring that will require grading at an existing single family residence. During the hearing process, . the applicants revised their plans, withdrew their requests to expand the existing residence and construct a riding ring. Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the applications on March 21, 2000, April 18, 2000, May 16, 2000, June 20, 2000, July 18, 2000, August 15, 2000, September 19, 2000, October 17, 2000, and November 21, 2000, and at a field trip visit on April 18, 2000. 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 were in attendance at the hearing. The following concerns were expressed by the Commission and nearby property owners: The size, height and location on the lot of the proposed structures, Hillside Lane and driveway easements along with possible grading issues that require the approval of neighbors and the County Fire Department, and review and approval' of the project by the Community Association. 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 17.16.210(A)(2) of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code permits approval for a pool cabana under certain conditions provided a Conditional Use Permit for such use is approved by the Planning Commission. The applicants are requesting permission to construct a 600 square foot pool cabana at the central portion of the lot. With respect to this request for a Conditional Use Permit, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. . The granting of a Conditional Use Permit for the construction of a pool cabana would be consistent with the purposes and objectives of the Zoning Ordinance 4.711111, and General Plan and will be desirable for the public convenience and welfare. The use is consistent with similar uses in the community, and the area proposed for the pool cabana will be located in an area on the property where such use will not change the existing configuration of structures on the lot. Section 17.16.040 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code permits detached pool cabanas in the RA-S Zone with a Conditi Use Permit. B. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent uses, buildings, and structures have been considered, and the construction of a pool cabana will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the proposed pool cabana will be constructed at the central portion of the lot and is a sufficient distance from nearby residences to insure the pool cabana will not impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors. C. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain, and surrounding residences because the pool cabana will comply with the low profile residential development pattern of the community and is located on a 2.63 acre parcel of property that is adequate in size, shape and topography to accommodate such use. D. The proposed conditional use complies with all applicable development standards of the zone district because the 600 square foot size of the pool cabana is less than the 800 square foot maximum permitted and the pool cabana does notencroach into any required setback areas. E. The proposed conditional use is consistent with the portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and 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. F. The proposed conditional use observes the spirit and intent of Title 17 of the Zoning Code by preserving a .site for construction of a future stable structure and adjacent corral that will be located at the northwest portion of the lot. Section 5. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning Commission hereby approves a Conditional Use Permit for the construction of an 600 square foot pool cabana in accordance with the development plan dated October 12, 2000, and marked Exhibit A in Zoning Case No. 608 subject to the conditions contained in Section 8 of this resolution. 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 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 pool cabana, pool/spa, and future stable at an existing single family residence, the Planning Commission makes the following findings of fact: RESOLUTION NO. 2000-27 PAGE 2 OF 8 • • 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 lot has a net square foot areaf 99,978 square feet. The proposed residence (3,630 sq.ft.), garage (600 sq.ft.), swimming pool (850 sq.ft.), pool cabana (600 sq.ft.), and future stable (1,440-sq.ft.) will have7,120 square feet which constitutes 7.1% of the lot which is within the maximum 20% • structural lot coverage requirement. The total lot coverage including paved areas and driveway will be 11,046 square feet which equals 11.0% 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. B. 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 lot to look overdeveloped. Significant portions of the lot will be left undeveloped so as to maintain scenic vistas across portions of the property. Although the proposed structures are located in the rear yard, they will not effect a change to the existing residence. The structures proposed will not be visible from Hillside Lane. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent uses, buildings, and structures and the topography of the lot which has a gentle slope have been considered, and the construction of a 600 square foot pool cabana, an 850 square foot pool/spa, and a 1,440 square foot future stable will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the proposed pool cabana will be constructed on a portion of the secondary building pad, will be the least intrusive to surrounding properties, will be screened and landscaped with mature trees and shrubs, is a sufficient distance from nearby residences so that the pool cabana, pool/spa and future stable will not impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors, will improve slope stability through the use of approved .drainage, will accommodate recreation for the owners and their children, and 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 maximums set forth in the Zoning Code will not be exceeded, the proposed project is consistent with the scale of the neighborhood when compared to this long, narrow sloping lot. The ratio of the proposed structures to lot coverage is similar to the ratio found on several properties in the vicinity. 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 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 at the northwest side (rear) of this lot. RESOLUTION NO. 2000-27 PAGE 3 OF 8 • • F. Grading will only be done to modify existing drainage channels to redirect drainage flow into existing drainage courses thereby improving slope stability through the use of approved drainage. G. The development plan preserves surrounding native vegetation and mature trees and supplements these elements with drought -tolerant landscaping 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 proposed development is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles because the proposed project will utilize an existing driveway at the southern portion of the property off Hillside Lane for access. I. The project conforms with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and is exempt. Section 7. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning Commission hereby approves the Site Plan Review application for Zoning Case No. 608 for proposed structures as shown on the Development Plan dated October 12, 2000, and marked Exhibit A, subject to the conditions contained in Section 8 of this Resolution. Section 8.
