SETBACK, GARAGE ADDITION IN THE FRONT YARD SETBACK TWO AS -BUILT SHEDS IN THE FRONT YARD AND SIDE YARD SETBACK, AND THE STABLE AND CORRAL SET ASIDE AREA IN THE FRONT YARD AND FRONT YARD SETBACK IN ZONING CASE NO. 951 AT 26 MIDDLERIDGE LANE SOUTH, LOT 248-A-2-UR, (JEFF AND CAMILLE MANQUEN). 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 the property owners Jeff and Camille Manquen with respect to real property located at 26 Middleridge Lane South, Rolling Hills (Lot 248-A-2-UR) requesting a Site Plan Review for construction of a new 1,018 square foot residential addition and Variances allowing construction of the following: residential and deck addition encroachments into the side setback, a garage addition in the front yard setback, two as -built sheds in the side and front yard setbacks, and stable and corral set aside area encroachment in its entirety in the front yard setback and front yard area. The applicant also applied for other miscellaneous improvements. Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing on October 23, 2018 by viewing the project in the field, opening the hearing to enable brief public testimony and continuing the meeting to the evening meeting of the Planning Commission on that same date. At the October 23, 2018 evening meeting, the Planning Commission provided direction to staff to prepare a resolution of approval for the proposed project. Neighbors within a 1,000-foot radius were notified of the public hearing and a notice was published in the Peninsula News on October 11, 2018. The applicants and their agents were notified of the public hearings and the applicants and agents were in attendance at the hearings. Evidence was presented by persons interested in affecting said proposal and by members of the City staff to the Planning Commission. There were no objections to the proposed project. Section 3. The property is zoned RAS-2 and the gross lot area is 3.08 acres. The net lot area is 101,396 square feet or approximately 2.33 acres. The existing property is currently improved with an existing 4,357 square foot house with a 793 square foot Resolution No. 2018-16 1 attached garage, a 885 square foot raised deck, a 545 square foot swimming pool & spa, and a 260 square foot trellis. Section 4. The Planning Commission finds that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Action (CEQA) pursuant to Class 1, Section 15301 of the CEQA guidelines. Section 5. Site Plan Review. Section 17.46.020(A) of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code permits approval for expansion of any existing building or structure which increases the size of the building or structure by more than 999 square feet under Site Plan Review. The Planning Commission must consider applications for Site Plan Review and may, with such conditions as are deemed necessary, approve a project which complies with the required findings under RHMC Chapter 17.46. With respect to the requests for Site Plan Review, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. The project complies with and is consistent with the goals and policies of the general plan and all requirements of the zoning ordinance. The residential additions consist of a 769 square foot addition to the western side of the house, a 94 square foot addition, 18.5 square foot addition, and 28 square foot addition to the north side of the house, and a 169 square foot addition and 41 square foot addition to the southern, rear side of the house. The residential additions are consistent with the General Plan because they support the residential use. The residential additions are compatible with the land use as they reinforce the residential character of the neighborhood and are largely unseen from the roadway easement as the majority of the residential addition is located to the side and rear portion of the residence. B. The project substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage. The residential additions are being constructed on the side and rear portions of the lot that have already been disturbed. The rear of the property is largely unimproved slope and will remain in this condition. The structural net lot coverage and total lot coverage with the residential additions are in compliance with the Zoning Code. C. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences. The residential additions are harmonious in scale and mass with the site. The residential additions are consistent with the scale of the neighborhood when compared to other residences in the vicinity of said lot. The residential addition takes advantage of enclosing areas already underneath the existing roofline with small increases that do not affect the overall massing of the residence. The residential additions do not require any grading of the natural terrain because they are being developed on areas that have already been disturbed. Resolution No. 2018-16 2 z D. The project preserves and integrates into the site design, to the greatest extent possible, existing topographic features of the site, including surrounding native vegetation, mature vegetation, drainage courses and land forms (such as hillsides and knolls). The residential additions integrate the existing topographic features of the site because they are being developed on areas that have already been disturbed. Since there is no additional grading, the residential additions will not affect the natural drainage on the property. No mature vegetation or landscaping has been identified to be removed as a result of the project. E. The grading on the property has been designed to follow natural contours of the site and to minimize the amount of grading required to create the building area. The residential additions are on an area that has already been disturbed, and consequently no grading is being proposed to create a buildable area for the residential additions. F. Grading will not modify existing drainage channels nor redirect drainage flow, unless such flow is redirected into an existing drainage course. The residential additions are on areas that have already been disturbed, and consequently no drainage channels or flow will be redirected. G. The project preserves surrounding native vegetation and mature trees and supplements these elements with 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. There will be no changes to the property as it relates to native and existing vegetation. Existing landscaping will continue to reinforce the rural character of the community. H. The project is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenient and safe movement of pedestrians and vehicles. The residential additions will not cause any changes to the existing driveway apron. There is ample parking in the garage and there is parking for guests on site. I. The project conforms to the requirements of CEQA. As previously stated, the project is exempt from CEQA, Class 1, Section 15301 of the CEQA guidelines. Section 6. Variances. Sections 17.38.010 through 17.38.050 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code permit approval of Variances granting relief from the standards and requirements of the Zoning Ordinance when exceptional or extraordinary circumstances applicable. to the property prevent the owner from making use of a parcel of property to the same extent enjoyed by similar properties in the same vicinity or zone. Variances from the requirements of Section 17.16.120 (structures cannot be located in the side yard setback), Section 17.16.110 (structures cannot be located in the front setback), and Section 17.18.060 (stable structures cannot be located in the front Resolution No. 2018-16 3 10 yard) of the Zoning Ordinance is required. With respect to the aforementioned request for variances, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances and conditions applicable to the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same vicinity and zone. The natural slope of the subject property, the location of the building pad, the existence of a bridal trail that traverses the property in the center, and the shape of the lot constrain development. The bridal trail greatly impacts the use of the entire property and is largely the reason why developable space is constrained. Also, the lot is oddly shaped so the area within the setbacks is extensive. The original residence was also built before 1981, when the front yard setback requirement changed from 30 feet to 50 feet. Therefore, the existing residence encroaches into the front yard setback. As a result, a portion of the residential addition (205/1,087 square feet) encroaches into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 13 feet. A portion of the raised deck(34/420 square feet) also encroaches into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 4 feet. The entire stable and corral set aside area would be located in the front yard and would also encroach into the front yard setback a length of 31 feet. Additionally, the 11 square foot addition to the existing garage located partially in the front yard setback will also exist in the front yard setback. Finally, pool as -built shed will be located in the side yard setback and the house as -built shed will be located in the front yard setback. It would be extremely challenging to relocate either shed. The pool equipment shed needs to be located relatively close to the swimming pool and the other areas on the property available to locate both sheds outside of setbacks are either slopes which would require substantial grading or directly off the driveway in front of the residence which would impede access to the residence and make them more visible to the roadway easement. B. The variances are necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights possessed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone but which is denied to the property in question. The variance to allow a portion of the residential addition to encroach into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 13 feet is necessary to the preservation of the Applicant's property right since the residence without the residential additions is 4,357 and it is located in the RA-2 zone which allows for larger residences. Other portions of the lot cannot feasibly be developed due to the location of the building pad and the bridal trail that traverses the property. The residential addition within the side setback area is being constructed where there already stands a legally permitted trellis structure. The residential addition does not push the structural Resolution No. 2018-16 4 coverage of the lot anywhere close to the maximum structural coverage allowed on the property. The variance to allow a portion of the raised deck to encroach into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 4 feet is necessary to the preservation of the Applicant's property right since it provides the Applicants' with outdoor space off of the residence which is enjoyed by other residences. The raised deck is hardly distinguishable from the residence structure when looking at the structure from the side and rear. The small building area on the property prevents any additions from being placed on the front or side of the house without encroaching into the setback areas. The variance to allow the entire stable and corral set aside area to be located in the front yard and to encroach into the front yard setback a length of 31 feet is necessary to the preservation of the Applicants' property right since it is required for property owners to have the set aside area and there is no other feasible area. Access, due to steep topography and the steepness of the bridal trail, makes it impossible to access the stable from the bridal trail and therefore must be off of the roadway easement. Other properties that have development constraints were granted variances for stable and corral set aside areas in the front yard. The 11 square foot addition to the existing garage in the front yard setback is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights possessed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone because it will allow them to park their larger vehicles inside the garage instead of on the driveway. Additionally because the existing garage is already located in the front yard setback due to construction before 1981, it is necessary that the addition also occur in the front yard setback. Properties are allowed up to five accessory structures, including up to two storage sheds, at 120 square feet each, and the two sheds to be permitted are 57 and 82 square feet each, well under the allowable size of accessory structures permitted on every property in the City. This would be permissible without discretionary review if they were not located in the setback areas. The variance to allow the as built shed in the side yard setback area is necessary to the preservation of the Applicant's property right since the shed is currently being used to contain the pool equipment for the swimming pool & spa which is an accessory use that requires closer proximity to the pool and is an amenity enjoyed by most properties in the City. The size of the pool shed, 57 square feet, would be approved administratively if it were located outside of the side setback on the property. Because the property is oddly shaped, has a bridal trail traversing the middle, and has sloped topography, while still being located close to the pool makes finding an alternate Resolution No. 2018-16 5 location outside of setbacks in a buildable area not feasible without negatively impacting visibility to the roadway easement. The variance to allow the as built shed in the front yard setback area is necessary to the preservation of the Applicant's property right since the shed is currently being used as storage that serves the residence which is an accessory use that requires closer proximity to the house and is an amenity enjoyed by many properties in the City. The size of the house shed, 82 square feet, would be approved administratively if it were located outside of the front setback on the property. Because the property is oddly shaped, has a bridal trail traversing the middle, and has sloped topography, finding an alternate location outside of setbacks in a buildable area while still providing the accessibility needed for its purpose of serving the house is not feasible without impeding access to the house or negatively impacting visibility to the roadway easement. C. The granting of the variances would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the properties or improvements in such vicinity. The variance to allow a portion of the residential addition to encroach into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 13 feet would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare of injurious to the properties in the vicinity because the additions will appear to be part of the house. The current residence already encroaches into the side yard setback due to the fact that it was built at a time when the setbacks were smaller. The residential addition will not encroach further into the side yard setback than the current residence. The variance to allow a portion of the raised deck to encroach into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 4 feet would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare of injurious to the properties in the vicinity because the deck is already screened by existing vegetation, will have a planter with additional landscaping for enhanced screening, is located in the rear of the residence and not visible from other properties along the roadway easement, and is only minimally visible from across the canyon. The variance to allow the entire stable and corral set aside area to be located in the front yard and to encroach into the front yard setback a length of 31 feet will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity because it will not be close to any neighboring property structures. The 11 square foot addition to the existing garage in the front yard setback would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the properties Resolution No. 2018-16 6 s in the vicinity because it is a minor addition. The encroachment into the front yard setback is consistent with the permitted footprint of the house and does not make access to and from the property more difficult or dangerous. It will not negatively affect drainage or traffic circulation to and from the property. The variance to allow the as built shed in the side yard setback area will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity because it is not visible from the roadway easement and reduces noise from the pool equipment. The variance to allow the as built shed in the front yard setback area will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity because it is partially screened by the existing mature landscaping, blends in with the architecture of the residence, and does not prohibit pedestrian access. D. In granting the variances, the spirit and intent of the Zoning Ordinance will be observed. The variance to allow a portion of the residential addition to encroach into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 13 feet observes the spirit and intent of the .Zoning Ordinance because it will make the property more cohesive with the rural character of the neighborhood. The residential addition is orderly and attractive and enhance the aesthetic nature of the home. The encroachment is minimal compared to the overall development of the lot and will not affect the rural character of the community. The residence was also built when the setbacks were smaller. Thus, almost any development would require encroachment into the setback as the residence is presently located in the setback. The variance to allow a portion of the raised deck to encroach into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 4 feet observes the spirit and intent of the Zoning Ordinance because it is orderly and attractive and enhance the aesthetic nature of the home. It also provides area for the Applicant to enjoy the outdoor portion of the home and rural character of the neighborhood despite the topography of the lot. The encroachment is minimal compared to the overall development of the lot and will not affect the rural character of the community. The variance to allow the entire stable and corral set aside area to be located in the front yard and to encroach into the front yard setback a length of 31 feet observes the spirit and intent of the Zoning Ordinance because it reinforces the equestrian nature of the site should a stable ever be built. Further, it allows for the preservation of the existing equestrian trail that traverses the middle of the property. The size, topography, Resolution No. 2018-16 7 the presence of a bridal trail in the middle of the property and configuration of the lot does not support the construction of a stable and corral in another location. By granting this variance, the current or future property owners now have a suitable location for a stable and corral set aside area identified. The 11 square foot addition to the existing garage in the front yard setback observes the spirit and intent of the Zoning Ordinance because it is an allowed structure under the Zoning Ordinance. The design is orderly and attractive. The expansion will allow the owner to park larger vehicles inside the garage rather than on the driveway. The variance to allow the as built shed in the side yard setback area observes the spirit and intent of the Zoning Ordinance because pool equipment pads are allowable under the code and enclosures are encouraged to lessen any noise impacts. The variance to allow the as built shed in the front yard setback area observes the spirit and intent of the Zoning Ordinance because it allows for accessory storage to the residence which enhances the residential use of the property. E. The variances will not grant special privilege to the applicant. The variance to allow a portion of the residential addition to encroach into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 13 feet will not grant a special privilege to the appliance because the additions to the residence is a permitted residential use of the property. Additionally, many properties in the area were constructed prior to 1981, when the front yard setback requirements changed from 30 feet to 50 feet and, therefore also encroach into the currently required 50-foot front yard setback. The size of the residential additions is smaller than or similar to other remodeled and new residences in the area. The variance to allow a portion of the raised deck to encroach into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 4 feet will not grant a special privilege to the Applicant because it will allow the Applicant to enjoy the outside of the property despite the steep topography in the rear like other property owners within the City. The variance to allow the entire stable and corral set aside area to be located in the front yard and to encroach into the front yard setback a length of 31 feet will not grant special privilege to the applicant. There are several properties in the City that do not lend themselves to construction of a stable and corral in the areas required by the zoning code. The size, topography, the presence of a bridal trail in the middle of the property and configuration of the lot does not support the construction of a stable and Resolution No. 2018-16 8 corral anywhere else on the lot. Almost every other property within the City has a stable and corral set aside area. The .11 square foot addition to the existing garage in the front yard setback will not grant a special privilege to the applicant because the existing garage is already located in the front yard setback due to construction before the changed requirements in 1981. Almost any addition to the garage would require a variance from the front yard setback. The variance to allow the as built, shed in the side yard setback area will not grant special privilege to the applicant because it is part of residential activities and associated with enjoyment of the property as is afforded to most other properties in the City. It satisfies the need for a pad for the pool equipment which is afforded to any property with a swimming pool or spa. The variance to allow the as built shed in the front yard setback area will not grant special privilege to the applicant because it is part of residential activities and associated with enjoyment of the property as is afforded to most other properties in the City. Accessory storage structures are afforded to most other properties, especially properties similar in size to the subject property. The need to placeit in the front setback lies primarily in the odd shape of the lot making what would otherwise be located on the side of the residence to be located in the front. F. The variances are consistent with the portions of the County of Los Angeles Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. The project site is not listed on the current State of California Hazardous Waste and Substances Sites List. It will not affect any existing hazardous waste management facilities. G. The variances are consistent with the General Plan of the City of Rolling Hills. The variance to allow a portion of the residential addition to encroach into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 13 feet is consistent with the General Plan's requirement of low profile, low -density residential development with sufficient open space between surrounding structures. The additions to the residence, do not increase density. Even though the additions to the residence encroach into the setback areas, there is still sufficient space in the setbacks to buffer the property's residential use from other neighboring residences. Resolution No. 2018-16 9 • The variance to allow a portion of the raised deck to encroach into the side yard setback with a maximum encroachment length of 4 feet is consistent with the General Plan. Even though the raised deck may be visible to properties bordering the canyon behind the property, there is still sufficient space and landscaping in the setback to buffer the property's residential use from other neighboring residences. These improvements will also allow the property owner to make greater use of the residence despite its topography and construction pursuant to an older code. Further, a planter with low shrub landscaping to screen the out of grade condition of the deck is included in the project. The variance to allow the entire stable and corral set aside area to be located in the front yard and to encroach into the front yard setback a length of 31 feet is consistent with the General Plan. Even though the stable and corral set aside location is in the front yard, it is in line with the City's General Plari s goal to maintain to maximum extend feasible the natural terrain of the lots. The size, topography, the presence of a bridal trail in the middle of the property, and configuration of the lot does not support the construction of a stable and corral in another location on the property. By granting this variance, the current or future property owners are able to identify a stable and corral set aside area at a future date that is a suitable location. The 11 square foot addition to the existing garage in the front yard setback is consistent with the General Plan. There is sufficient space in the front yard setback to buffer the garage from other neighboring residences. It will allow the owner to park larger vehicles inside the garage rather than on the driveway. The variance to allow the as built shed in the side yard setback area is consistent with the General Plan in that it reinforces the residential nature of the property. Swimming pools, and pool equipment needed for such pools, are residential uses. The variance to allow the as built shed in the front yard setback area is consistent with the General Plan in that it also reinforces the residential nature of the property by providing storage that directly serves the residence. Section 7. Based upon the foregoing findings, and the evidence in the record, the Planning Commission hereby approves Applicant's requests in Zoning Case' No. 951 for Site Plan Review for construction of a new 1,018 square foot residential addition and Variances allowing construction to allow for residential and deck additions to encroach into the side setback, two as -built sheds in the side and front yard setbacks, the stable and corral set aside area encroachment in its entirety in the front yard setback and front yard area, and the garage expansion in the front yard setback subject to the following conditions: Resolution No. 2018-16 10 A.

The stop work order shall remain in effect during the pendency of the hearing. The City Council shall make a determination as to whether a violation of this Resolution has occurred. If the Council determines that a violation has not occurred or has been cured by the time of the hearing, the Council will lift the stop work order. If the Council determines that a violation has occurred and has not yet been cured, the Council shall provide the Applicant with a deadline to cure the violation; no construction work shall be performed on the property until and unless the violation is cured by the deadline, other than work designated by the Council to accomplish the cure. If the violation is not cured by the deadline, the Council may either extend the deadline at the Applicant's request or schedule a hearing for the revocation of the entitlements granted by this Resolution pursuant to Chapter 17.58 of the RHMC.

Further, the person obtaining a building and/or grading permit for this project shall execute a Certificate of Construction stating that the project will be constructed according to this Resolution and any plans approved therewith. G. Structural lot coverage of the lot shall not exceed 9,078 square feet or 8.95% of the net lot area, in conformance with lot coverage limitations (20% maximum). The structural coverage on the building pad shall not exceed 9,162 square feet or 102.54%. The total lot coverage proposed, including structures and flatwork, shall not exceed 15,198 square feet or 14.99%, of the net lot area, in conformance with lot coverage limitations (35% max). H. The overall grading for the project shall not exceed 300 cubic yards total (which includes overexcavation and recompaction but excludes any grading for the stable set aside area). The disturbed area of the lot, shall not exceed 33.88%. I. A minimum of five-foot level path and/or walkway, which does not have to be paved, shall be provided around the entire perimeter of all structures, or as otherwise required by the Fire Department. J.
