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 Mr. and Mrs. Harry Keegan with respect to real property located at 15 Georgeff Road, Rolling Hills (Lot 29-GF) requesting a Variance to the front yard setback to permit a living room addition to encroach into the front yard setback. Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the application for a Variance on June 25, 1991 and July 16, 1991, and at a field trip visit on July 13, 1991. Section 3. Sections 17.32.010 through 17.32.030 permit approval of a Variance from the standards and requirements of the Zoning Ordinance when exceptional or extraordinary circumstances applicable to the property and not applicable to other similar properties in the same zone prevent the owner from making use of a parcel of property to the same extent enjoyed by similar properties. A Variance to Section 17.16.060 is required to construct the proposed living room addition in the fifty (50) foot front yard setback. Total additions will be 806 square feet. The applicant is requesting an addition of 136 square feet that will encroach a maximum of twenty-three (23) feet into the front yard setback. The Planning Commission finds: A. There are exceptional and extraordinary circumstances and conditions applicable to the property and the intended use that do not apply generally to the other property in the same vicinity and zone. The Variance is necessary because the existing legal nonconforming residence was built within the front yard setback and the building pad is located close to the street and adjacent residences. B. This 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. The Variance is necessary because the existing development pattern on the lot precludes the requested additions from being built into the rear yard. C. The granting of this Variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity or zone in which the property is located. Development on the pad will allow a substantial portion of the lot to remain undeveloped. it• • RESOLUTION NO. 91-21 PAGE 2 Section 4. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning Commission hereby approves the Variance to encroach into the front yard setback to construct a 136 square foot living room addition to a maximum of 23 feet as indicated on the Development Plan attached hereto as Exhibit A subject to the conditions contained in Section 5. The Planning Commission also finds that the project conforms with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and is categorically exempt from environmental review. Section 5. The Variance to the front yard setback approved in Section 4, as indicated on the Development Plan attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit A, is subject to the following conditions: A. The Variance shall expire unless used within one year from the effective date of approval as defined in Section 17.32.110 of the Municipal Code. B. It is declared and made a condition of the Variance approval, that if any conditions thereof are violated, the Permit shall be suspended and the privileges granted thereunder shall lapse; provided that the applicant has been given written notice to cease such violation and has failed to do so for a period of thirty (30) days. C. All requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and of the zone in which the subject property is located must be complied with unless otherwise set forth in the Permit, or shown otherwise on an approved plan. D. The lot shall be developed and maintained in substantial conformance with the Development Plan on file marked Exhibit A except as otherwise provided in these conditions. E. The project must be reviewed and approved by the Rolling Hills Community Association Architectural Review Committee prior to the issuance of any building or grading permit. F. The working drawings submitted to the County Department of Building and Safety for plan check review must conform to the development plan approved with this application. G. The applicant shall execute an Affidavit of Acceptance of all conditions of this Variance, pursuant to Section 17.32.087, or the approval shall not be effective. RESOLUTION NO. 91-21 PAGE 3 H. All conditions of this Variance approval, except for the maintenance requirement of Paragraph D, must be complied with prior to the issuance of a building•or grading permit from the County of Los Angeles.
