UNGAR, PLANNING DIRECTOR SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 2000-27: A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO CONSTRUCT A POOL CABANA AND GRANTING SITE PLAN REVIEW APPROVAL TO PERMIT THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE POOL CABANA, A POOL, AND A STABLE AT A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE AT 5 HILLSIDE LANE IN ZONING CASE NO. 608. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Gaudenti, 5 Hillside Lane (Lot 126-C-RH) BACKGROUND 1. . The Planning Commission adopted the attached Resolution No. 2000-27. on November 21, 2000 at their regular meeting granting a Conditional Use Permit to permit the construction of a pool cabana, and granting Site Plan Review approval to permit the construction of a cabana, a stable, and the relocation of a pool/spa at an existing single family residence. The vote was 5-0. 2. The applicants are requesting Conditional Use and Site Plan Review permits for the construction of a 600 square foot pool cabana and the relocation of an 850 square foot pool/spa both of which will be north and 20 feet below the existing residence on a separate building pad. A 1,440 square foot future stable is also proposed to the northwest. During the hearing process, the applicants revised their plans and withdrew previous requests to expand the existing residence and develop a riding ring. 3. Grading for the project will not be required. 4. The structural lot coverage proposed is 7,120 square feet or 7.1% structural lot coverage (20% permitted) and the total lot coverage proposed is 11,046 square feet or 11.0% (35% permitted). 5. Building pad coverage on the 26,400 square foot residential building pad is 4,230 square feet or 16.0%, building pad coverage on the 8,000 square foot pool and Printed on Recycled Paper. i • 5. Building pad coverage on the 26,400 square foot residential building pad is 4,230 square feet or 16.0%, building pad coverage on the 8,000 square foot pool and cabana pad is 1,440 square feet or 18.1%, and the 6,300 square foot stable pad coverage is 1,440 square feet or 22.9% for the barn and corral area. The three pads that total 40,700 square feet (residential, pool and pool cabana, and stable) will have 11,046 square foot coverage or 17.5%. 6. Disturbed area of the lot will be 11,046 square feet or 11.0% (40% permitted) of the net lot area. Disturbance includes any remedial grading (temporary disturbance), any graded slopes and building pad areas, and any nongraded area where impervious surfaces will remain or are proposed to be added. 7. Permits show that the residence with attached garage was completed in 1954, swimming pool completed in 1960, swimming pool windbreak and shelter completed in 1960, bathroom addition completed in 1962, porch enclosure completed in 1964, and residential reroofing in 1994. On May 5,1990, Mrs. Tina Greenberg was granted Site Plan Review approval for a proposed residential redevelopment on the site in Zoning Case No. 420 but the project was not constructed. 8. The access driveway to the residence will remain the same off Hillside Lane although calculations show an additional 326 square feet. Mr. Wynn says that that this number is in error as there will not be any addition to the driveway area at the present time. The driveway crosses the Tsai property atthe south though there is no recorded easement for this access driveway. 9. Access to the stable will be by a 12-foot wide trail from the existing driveway to the northwest with a maximum slope to the stable of 25% or 4:1. 10. The project has been determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

CA 90274 OCT17 2000 CITY OP ROLLING HILLS kv To: Members of the Rolling Hills Planning Commission • From: Carole Hoffman Date: October 17, 2000 Re: Gaudente's Request for Conditional Use Permit Dear Members of the Planning Commission, We are unable to be present tonight as we have tried to be for each hearing concerning our new neighbors, the Gaudentes. The file will reflect that we are happy to see them improve their property, as long as we neighbors' enjoyment of our property is not adversely affected. We are on record expressing concern about the location of a proposed expansive addition to their house. We understand tonight's discussion however, focuses solely on a `cabana and pool'. The purpose of this correspondence is to alert your attention to the fact that the graded pads on me north side of Gaudente's property (site where the proposed cabana and pool would be), were created by a former property owner (Greenberg), without authorization, permit or Inspection. Earth cutting and filling was hastily completed on a weekend with no official supervision. It is highly untikley that compaction is sufficient for any building structure or pool. We continue to have great interest and concern about the geologic aspects of the Gaudentes' various proposals, and feel you should have this more complete rnstory oT the existing grading of their NIoperty. (A notice we received of tonight's hearing gave a historic accounting without mention of Ms. Greenberg's illegal grading of the area in question). We would like to be assured that future development would be carefully scrutinized and properly monitored in order that • it meets building and geology requirements and standards. ff@EIVE..1 MAR 212000 CITY OF ROLLING H!LLS LARRY D.

I really do not object to the project proposed on thesite, however I trust that the geologic reports submitted will be very carefully reviewed by the City's agent prior to granting approval. I am also deeply concerned about whether the water run-off from the new project will enter my property. I installed a rather elaborate water run-off system on my property and- it is designed to handle only the run-off frommy property and not anyone else's. I urge you to consider water run-offfrorp the new project in your evaluation. Thank you, . Larry D. Delpit • • RICHARD B.

Planning Commission of the City of Rolling Hills on Tuesday, March 21, 2000. As close neighbors at 3 Hillside Lane, we whole heartedly support the Guadente's project with the following provisos: 1) That in view of the fact that the project will be either on or near an ancient landslide, appropriate geologic evaluation and reports be carefully reviewed by the City of Rolling Hills' agent, the County of Los Angeles Geology Department. Also that there be appropriate monitoring of this fragile terrain during large soil displacements. We know that we are extra sensitive concerning geology, however this is our second home in Rolling Hills, since the first we left due to an ancient landslide that became activated. 2) Secondly, although we have no objection to the placement of the addition to the Gaudente house, we want to point out however, that it is approaching our bam area. We try to maintain our bam in as impeccable a fashion as a bam can be, but it still is a bam, with horses and all that goes along with them and to maintain them. This barn has existed for 50 years, and we would be displeased if after the Guadente project is completed, the proximity of the barn becomes an issue. THE.1119113 MAR 202000 Girt OFROLLING NuS We are pleased that neighbors on our lane are intent on improving their property, and we do not want to be an impediment to their project, but we feel this is the correct time to voice these important considerations for the record. Sjn erely, DICK and CAROLE MAN `- Cc: Bob and Christi Gaudente RESOLUTION NO. 2000-27 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF . ROLLING HILLS GRANTING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO CONSTRUCT A POOL CABANA AND GRANTING SITE PLAN REVIEW APPROVAL TO PERMIT THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE POOL CABANA, A POOL, AND A STABLE AT A SINGLE FAMILY 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 • • 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 Conditional 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 not encroach 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 area of 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 have 7,120 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 3OF8 C3 • • 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 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. 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. The Conditional Use Permit for the 600 square foot pool cabana approved in Section 5 and the Site Plan Review approved in Section 7 of this Resolution are subject to the following conditions: A.

B. It is declared and made a condition of the Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review approvals, that if any conditions thereof are violated, this approval shall be suspended and the privileges granted thereunder shall lapse; provided that the applicants have 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.

BACKGROUND 1. The Planning Commission will view a silhouette of the proposed project at the site on Tuesday, April 18, 2000, at 6:15 PM followed by the regular meeting of the Planning Commission at 7:30 PM at City Hall. At the March 21, 2000 meeting, the Planning Commission was informed of driveway easement and possible grading issues for this project that require Fire Department approval. Mr. Richard Hoffman, 3 Hillside Lane, commented on his March 19, 2000 letter regarding concerns about the stability of the soil on the property and the proximity of the residence to his barn. Mrs. Larry D. Delpit, 45 Saddleback Road, commented on her March 20, 2000 letter expressing concern regarding the drainage from the proposed project and the stability of the soil on the site. Commissioner Witte requested that a vicinity map of adjacent properties be provided by the applicants. 2. The applicants request a Conditional Use Permit to allow the construction of an 800 square foot pool cabana at the northwest on a secondary lower building ZONING CASE NO. 608 PAGE 1 ®Printed on Recycled Paper. • • pad at the 656 foot elevation in accordance with Section 17.16.210(A)(2). The specified conditions for a pool cabana are that no sleeping quarters or kitchen or other cooking facilities are permitted. The applicants request a Conditional Use Permit to allow the construction of a 7,800 square foot oval riding ring that is 62 feet x 135 feet in size to be located at the northwest on a third lower building pad in accordance with Section 17.16.210(A)(3). There are no specified conditions for a riding ring unless imposed by the discretionary review process. A riding ring requires grading, preparation and maintenance of at least 6 layers of soil and a variety of construction materials to allow for proper consistency and adequate drainage of the ring. A 1,440 square foot stable and the riding ring are proposed to be constructed on the third lower building pad below the existing residence shown on the development plan at the 640 and 616 foot elevations, respectively, at the northwestern portion of the lot. The stable and riding ring will be accessed by a 12-foot wide trail from the existing driveway that winds northwest to northeast. The maximum slope to the stable will be 25% or 4:1. In addition, the applicants request Site Plan Review to permit the reconstruction of the existing 3,360 square foot residence and 600 square foot garage to be a 7,252 square foot residence and 720 square foot garage in the same location as the existing residence; the removal of the existing pool/spa from the residential building pad to the secondary building pad at the northwest to be an 850 square foot pool/spa at the 656 foot elevation; the construction of the 800 square foot pool cabana on the same secondary building pad as the pool, the construction of a 1,440 square foot stable at the 640 foot elevation; and grading for the construction of the 7,800 square foot riding ring at the 616 foot elevation. The proposed residence will be located in the same general area as the existing residence at the southeast at the 677 foot elevation. 3. The access driveway to the residence will remain the same off Hillside Lane. The driveway crosses the Tsai property at the south though there is no recorded easement for this access driveway. 4. Grading for the project will require 1,600 cubic yards of cut soil and 1,600 cubic yards of fill soil. 5. The structural lot coverage proposed is 11,762 square feet or 11.8% structural lot coverage (20% permitted) and the total lot coverage proposed is 14,902 square feet or 14.9% (35% permitted). 6. Building pad coverage on the 26,400 square foot residential building pad is 7,972 square feet or 30.2%, building pad coverage on the 8,000 square foot pool and cabana pad is 1,650 square feet or 20.6%, and the 12,000 square foot stable ZONING CASE NO. 608 PAGE 2 • • and riding ring building pad coverage is 1,440 square feet or 12% for the barn and corral area. Pad coverage for the three pads (residential, pool and pool cabana, and stable) total 46,400 square feet will be 11,062 square feet or 23.8%. 7. Disturbed area of the lot will be 25,650 square feet or 25.7% (40% permitted) of the net lot area. Disturbance includes any remedial grading (temporary disturbance), any graded slopes and building pad areas, and any nongraded area where impervious surfaces will remain or are proposed to be added. 8. Permits show that the residence with attached garage was completed in 1954, swimming pool completed in 1960, swimming pool windbreak and shelter completed in 1960, bathroom addition completed in 1962, porch enclosure completed in 1964, and residential reroofing in 1994. On May 5, 1990, Mrs. Tina Greenberg was granted Site Plan Review approval for a proposed residential redevelopment on the site in Zoning Case No. 420 but the project was not constructed. 9. Section 15302 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) permits replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure as a Class 2 exemption. Section 15304 (b) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) permits Minor Alterations to Land as a Class 4 exemption. This exemption consists of minor public or private alterations in 'the condition of land, water, and/or vegetation which do not involve removal of mature, scenic trees except for forestry and agricultural purposes. Thus, staff has determined the project to be categorically exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

I really do not object to the project proposed on the site, however I trust that the geologic reports submitted will be very carefully reviewed by the City's agent prior to granting approval. I am also deeply concerned about whether the water run-off from the new project will enter my property. I installed a rather elaborate water run-off system on my property and it is designed to handle only the run-off from my property and not anyone else's. I urge you to consider water run-off from the new project in your evaluation. Thank you, Larry D.Delpit OICHARD B.

As close neighbors at 3 Hillside Lane, we whole heartedly support the Guadente's project with the following provisos: 1) That in view of the fact that the project will be either on or near an ancient landslide, appropriate geologic evaluation and reports be carefully reviewed by the City of Rolling Hills' agent, the County of Los Angeles Geology Department. Also that there be appropriate monitoring of this fragile terrain during large soil displacements. We know that we are extra sensitive concerning geology, however this is our second home in Rolling Hills, since the first we left due to an ancient landslide that became activated. 2) Secondly, although we have no objection to the placement of the addition to the Gaudente house, we want to point out however, that it is approaching our barn area. We try to maintain our barn in as impeccable a fashion as a bam can be, but it still is a barn, with horses and all that goes along with them and to maintain them. This barn has existed for 50 years, and we would be displeased if after the Guadente project is completed, the proximity of the barn becomes an issue. We are pleased that neighbors on our lane are intent on improving their property, and we do not want to be an impediment to their project, but we feel this is the correct time to voice these important considerations for the record.
