THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS DOES HEREBY FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Application was duly filed by Mr. Pluimer with respect to real property located at 1 Lower Blackwater Canyon Road (Lot 46-RH) requesting a Site Plan Review to construct 1,172 square foot addition to an existing residence and a Variance to encroach with 62 square feet of the addition into the side yard setback. In addition, the applicant proposes to encroach with a new 158 square foot attached trellis into the side setback, which also requires a Variance. Section 2. The lot is irregular in shape and is located at the convergence of three streets, Lower Blackwater Canyon Road, Williamsburg Lane and Middleridge Lane North. Lower Blackwater Canyon Road goes through the property and consists of a sixty -foot wide roadway easement. However, only 18-20 feet of the roadway easement is paved. The actual paved portion of the road meanders in and out of the easement and is located approximately 50 feet east (below) of the residence. Section 3. The applicants submitted a request to the RHCA Board of Directors to reduce the roadway easement and to relocate the roadway easement to more closely align with the actual paved road. Recently, the Board of Directors approved the applicants' request to realign and to reduce the easement. The process to reduce and to realign the roadway easement takes considerable amount of time, and the applicants would like to move the project along, and therefore a Variance is requested at this time. However, once the easement documents are prepared and recorded, the roadway easement will be relocated and the Variance would no longer be required. Section 4. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the application at their regular meetings on February 19 and March 18, 2008 and at a field trip on March 18, 2008. The applicant was 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's representative was in attendance at the hearings. Section 5. During the review process it was determined that the existing structure approved and permitted for a stable use, which is currently not used for strictly stable uses, could retain said use until such time as when the City completes its study on stables and amends the Zoning Ordinance to address stables. With a condition contained in this Resolution, this issue will be revisited upon the completion of the Zoning Code amendment regarding stables.
