BACKGROUND
1. The Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 98-9 on May 19, 1998 at
their regular meeting authorizing the issuance of a Conditional Certificate of
Compliance for a Lot Line Adjustment for property at 9 and 8 Maverick Lane.
The vote was 5-0.
2. The applicants are requesting that a portion of the lot line between Lot 26-SK
(Parcel 1) and Lot 27-SK (Parcel 2) at the terminus of Maverick Lane be moved
5 feet west at the southwest, 15 feet west and 32 feet northeast, and remain the
same 94 feet northeast, thereby transferring a 735.28 square foot elongated
triangle -shaped portion of land from Lot 26-SK (Parcel 1) to Lot 27-SK (Parcel
2). No new lots are being created. No new development on these lots is
currently proposed. Mrs. Sally Cornell explains in the attached letter that the
lot line adjustment is necessary to return the subject portion of land to Mrs.
Cornell and to the Sally S. Cornell Living Trust. The purpose of the lot line
adjustment is to transfer the land under Mrs. Cornell's sidewalk and
sprinklers to her property.

4. The existing 3,550 square foot residence and attached garage on Lot 26-SK
(Parcel 1) was built in 1958 with additions made to the residence and garage in
1990. Plans for a future pool are currently in plan check with the County.
There is an existing corral at the site.
The existing 3,049 square foot residence and attached garage on Lot 27-SK
(Parcel 2) was built in 1956. There is an existing corral at the site.

West: RA-S-1 Zone (1-acre zone) East: RA-S-1 Zone (1-acre zone)
South: RA-S-1 & RA-S-2 Zones (1 and 2-acre zones)
6. According to the Subdivision Map Act, the Planning Commission may not
impose conditions or exactions on its approval of a lot line adjustment except
to conform to local zoning and building ordinances. Attached is Section
17.16.060 of the Zoning Ordinance describing lot area and dimensions.
• •
Referring to Section 17.16.060(A)(2) Lot Size: Each of the two proposed lots is
greater than the minimum acreage for its zone. Each of the lots is greater
than the two acre net as required in the RA-S-2 Zone.
Referring to Section 17.16.060(B) Widths and depths of lots: Each proposed
parcel is irregular in shape. The abutting footage along the street easement
line of proposed Parcels 1 and 2 are 80 feet and 120 feet, respectively, and less
than the 150 foot minimum footage required by the Zoning Code. (Existing
abutting footage along the street easement line is 85 feet and 115 feet,
respectively, and less than the 150 foot minimum footage required by the
Zoning Code). Lot 27-SK is an existing lot that will receive additional acreage.
Although Lot 26-SK will be reduced in size, the proposed two parcels will
exceed minimum dimensions. The greatest depth of Parcel 1 is 400 feet, up to
470 feet wide at the northern quadrant, and up to 687 feet wide at the lower
section. The greatest depth of Parcel 2 is 425 feet at the northern quadrant,
and up to 475 feet wide at the lower section.
7. The proposed Parcel 1 will have a structural lot coverage of 4,110 square feet
or 3.8% that will be less than the 20% maximum permitted. The total lot
coverage will be less than the 35% maximum permitted. The disturbed area
of Parcel 1 will be less than the 40% maximum permitted.
The proposed Parcel 2 will have a structural lot coverage of 3,800 square feet
or 2.4% that will be less than the 20% maximum permitted. The total lot
coverage will be less than the 35% maximum permitted. The disturbed area
of Parcel 2 will be less than the 40% maximum permitted.
8. City maps show that there are 10 foot wide existing easements along the west,
south, and east sides of Parcel 1 and a 25 foot easement along the north side.
City maps show that there are 10 foot wide easements along the west and
south sides of Parcel 2 and 25 foot easements along the east and north sides.
No existing structures encroach into any of these easements.
9. The project has been determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council receive and file Resolution No. 98-9.
RESOLUTION NO. 98-9
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF ROLLING HILLS AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF A
CONDITIONAL CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR A LOT LINE
ADJUSTMENT FOR PROPERTY AT 9 MAVERICK LANE AND 8
MAVERICK LANE IN ZONING CASE NO. 576.
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 Mrs. Sally Cornell and Mr. and
Mrs. Mark Dessy with respect to real property located at 9 Maverick Lane and 8
Maverick Lane (Lots 27-SK and 26-A-SK, respectively) requesting a Certificate of
Compliance for a Lot Line Adjustment to move a southerly portion of the common
side lot lines dividing the two parcels up to 15 feet westerly so that a 735.28 square
foot triangular portion of existing Lot 26-A-SK is placed into Lot 27-SK.
Section 2. California Government Code Subsection 66412(d) authorizes lot
line adjustments without requiring a tentative map, parcel map or final map if: (A)
The lot line adjustment involves two or more existing adjacent parcels, where land
is proposed to be taken from one parcel and added to an adjacent parcel; (B) A greater
number of parcels than originally existed is not thereby created; (C) The lot line
adjustment will create parcels that conform to local zoning and building ordinances;
and (D) The lot line adjustment is approved by the City. The City may impose
conditions on the Lot Line Adjustment in order to make the lot conform to local
zoning and building ordinances, to require the prepayment of real property taxes
prior to the approval of the Lot Line Adjustment or to facilitate the relocation of
existing infrastructure or easements.
Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public
hearing to consider the application at a regular meeting on May 19, 1998.
Section 4. The Planning Commission finds that the project is categorically
exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality
Act pursuant to a Class 5 exemption provided by Section 15305 of the State CEQA
Guidelines.
Section 5. The Planning Commission has considered .the evidence, both
written and oral, presented in connection with this application and finds as follows:
A. Section 16.16.010(B) of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance and
Section 17.16.060(A) of the Rolling Hills Zoning Ordinance requires that each lot in
any subdivision in the RA-S-2 Zone shall have a net area of not less than eighty-
seven thousand one hundred twenty square feet (2.0 acres). The proposed lot line
adjustment will result in Lot 27-SK being 3.63 net acres and Lot 26-A-SK being 2.50
RESOLUTION NO. 98-9

net acres exclusive of: (a) any and all perimeter easements measured to a minimum
lineal distance of ten feet perpendicular to the property lines; (b) any portion of the
lot or parcel of land used for roadway purposes; and (c) any private drive or driveway
which provides access to any other lot or parcel of land.
B. Section 16.16.020 of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance and
Section 17.16.060(B)(3) of the Rolling Hills Zoning Ordinance require that in all cases
where practicable, the sidelines of lots shall be at approximate right angles or radial
to the street upon which such lot fronts. The existing sidelines of both lots are
approximately at right angles or radial to Maverick Lane. The proposed adjustment
will allow the westerly side lot line of Lot 27-SK .to be at right angles or radial to the
cul-de-sac at the northern terminus of Maverick Lane. The proposed adjustment
will allow the easterly side lot line of Lot 26-A-SK to be at right angles or radial to
the cul-de-sac at the northern terminus of Maverick Lane.
C. Section 1.6.20.230 of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance requires
that ten (10) foot wide easements be dedicated for bridle trail and utility purposes
over the strips and portions of land within and abutting upon the sidelines and rear
lines of each lot. The proposed lot line adjustment shall continue 10 foot easements
on each side of the adjusted lot line and will result in a 10 foot wide easement along
the westerly side lot line of the adjusted Lot 27-SK and a 10 foot wide easement
along the easterly side lot line of Lot 26-A-SK at the northern terminus of Maverick
Lane.
D. Conditions have been attached to this approval which provide that it
will not impair or limit the City's application of the Site Plan Review Ordinance to
any future development of Lot 27-SK or Lot 26-A-SK.
Section 6. In accordance with the foregoing findings, a Conditional
Certificate of Compliance for lot line adjustment sought in Zoning Case No 576 as
indicated on the map attached hereto as Exhibit "A" is hereby approved as a
Conditional Certificate of Compliance subject to the following conditions:
A. There shall be ten (10) foot easements on each side of the adjusted lot
line within the adjusted boundaries of Lot 27-SK and Lot 26-A-SK. The map
attached to the Conditional Certificate of Compliance, referred hereto as Exhibit " A "
shall delineate and note the easements specified in this paragraph.
B. The lot line adjustment shall not in any way constitute any
representation that the adjusted Lot 27-SK and the adjusted Lot 26-A-SK can be
developed in compliance with current zoning and building ordinance standards.
No development shall occur on the properties without first complying with all
applicable City Building and Zoning requirements and other applicable rules and
regulations.
RESOLUTION NO. 98-9

C. The lot line adjustment shall not in any respect limit or impair the
City's application of the Site Plan Review Ordinance (Ordinance No 221, 1988) to Lot
27-SK and Lot 26-A-SK at such time as an application is made for development.
D. The Certificate of Lot Line Adjustment shall not be issued until a legal
description complying with the delineation of adjustment and the required
easements as specified in Paragraph A of Section 6 are submitted to, and approved by
the City. Upon the City's approval of the legal description, the Conditional
Certificate of Compliance shall be issued by the City, shall be recorded by the
property owner in the offices of the Los Angeles County Recorder, and evidence of
the recordation shall be returned to the City.
E. The applicants shall record the deeds effectuating the transfer

Subject: Lot Line Adjustment #9 Maverick Lane (and #8 Maverick Lane)
Dear Friends at City Hall:
This letter requests a lot line adjustment by way of granting to me a small
amount of land. It is accompanied by an Environmental Information Form, a
Lot Line Adjustment Application, a map, a deed with legal description, and a
check for $1,700.00.
The lot line adjustment is required because I transferred a small portion of
my lot to #8 Maverick Lane to relatives who lived at that address. However,
that transfer included land under my sidewalk and sprinklers.
When #8 Maverick Lane was sold in 1989 through the estate of my then
deceased calabash relatives ("Uncle" Alden & "Aunt" Beryl Ayers), a deed was
prepared by the current owners (Mark & Jackie Dessy) of # 8 Maverick Lane
granting to me land sufficient so that our lot line accurately reflects existing
and historical use of the lots.
The actual deed was to me as an individual. However, since that deed, I
have created a living trust of which I am sole trustee and beneficiary while
living. I will record the deed to me as an individual and a simultaneous deed
from me to the Sally S. Cornell Living Trust, the actual legal owner of the
property at #9 Maverick Lane.
I am now seeking to have the lot line correction transaction formalized and
approved so that the deeds can be recorded and everything put in order.
Please contact me or my son, Craig, at 544-1925 with any questions.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
�C

Request for a Certificate of Compliance for Lot Line Adjustment to determine
compliance with provisions of the Subdivision Map Act.
BACKGROUND
1. The applicants are requesting that a portion of the lot line between Lot 26-SK
and Lot 27-SK at the terminus of Maverick Lane be moved 5 feet west at the
southwest, 15 feet west and 32 feet northeast, and remain the same 94 feet
northeast, thereby transferring a 735.28 square foot elongated triangle -shaped
portion of land from Lot 26-SK to Lot 27-SK. No new lots are being created.
No new development on these lots is currently proposed. Mrs. Sally Cornell
explains in the attached letter that the lot line adjustment is necessary to
return the subject portion of land to Mrs. Cornell and to the Sally S. Cornell
Living Trust.
2. The area of existing Lot 26-SK is 2.86 acres gross and existing Lot 27-SK is 4.04
acres gross.
Proposed Parcel 1 will be 2.84 acres gross and 2.50 acres net and proposed
Parcel 2 will be 4.07 acres gross and 3.63 acres net. Each of the lots are located
within the RA-S-2 Zone and no new lots will be created by this proposal.
3. The existing 3,550 square foot residence and attached garage on Lot 26-SK
(Parcel 1) was built in 1958 with additions made to the residence and garage in

5. According to the Subdivision Map Act, the Planning Commission may not
impose conditions or exactions on its approval of a lot line adjustment except
to conform to local zoning and building ordinances. Attached is Section
17.16.060 of the Zoning Ordinance describing lot area and dimensions.
Referring to Section 17.16.060(A)(2) Lot Size: Each of the two proposed lots is
greater than the minimum acreage for its zone. Each of the lots is greater
than the two acre net as required in the RA-S-2 Zone.
Referring to Section 17.16.060(B) Widths and depths of lots, Each proposed
parcel is irregular in shape. The abutting footage along the street easement
line of proposed Parcels 1 and 2 are 80 feet and 120 feet, respectively, and less
than the 150 foot minimum footage required by the Zoning Code. (Existing
abutting footage along the street easement line is 85 feet and 115 feet,
respectively, and less than the 150 foot minimum footage required by the
Zoning Code). Lot 27-SK is an existing lot that will receive additional acreage.
Although Lot 26-SK will be reduced in size, the proposed two parcels will

exceed minimum dimensions. The greatest depth of Parcel 1 is 400 feet, up to
470 feet wide at the northern quadrant, and up to 687 feet wide at the lower
section. The greatest depth of Parcel 2 is 425 feet at the northern quadrant,
and up to 475 feet wide at the lower section.
6. The proposed Parcel 1 will have a structural. lot coverage of 4,110 square feet
or 3.8% that will be less than the 20% maximum permitted. The total lot
coverage will be less than the 35% maximum permitted. The disturbed area
of Parcel 1 will be less than the 40% maximum permitted.
The proposed Parcel 2 will have a structural lot coverage of 3,800 square feet
or 2.4% that will be less than the 20% maximum permitted. The total lot
coverage will be less than the 35% maximum permitted. The disturbed area
of Parcel 2 will be less than the 40% maximum permitted.
7. City maps show that there are 10 foot wide existing easements along the west,
south, and east sides of Parcel 1 and a 25 foot easement along the north side.
City maps show that there are 10 foot wide easements along the west and
south sides of Parcel 2 and 25 foot easements along the east and north sides.
No existing structures encroach into any of these easements.
8. The project has been determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Planning Commission open the public hearing and take
testimony.

Subject: Lot Line Adjustment #9 Maverick Lane (and #8 Maverick Lane)
Dear Friends at City Hall:
This letter requests a lot line adjustment by way of granting to me a small
amount of land. It is accompanied by an Environmental Information Form, a
Lot Line Adjustment Application, a map, a deed with legal description, and a
check for $1,700.00.
The lot line adjustment is required because I transferred a small portion of
my lot to #8 Maverick Lane to relatives who lived at that address. However,
that transfer included land under my sidewalk and sprinklers.
When #8 Maverick Lane was sold in 1989 through the estate of my then
deceased calabash relatives ("Uncle" Alden & "Aunt" Beryl Ayers), a deed was
prepared by the current owners (Mark &. Jackie Dessy) of # 8 Maverick Lane
granting to me land sufficient so that our lot line accurately reflects existing
and historical use of the lots.
The actual deed was to me as an individual. However, since that deed, I
have created a living trust of which I am sole trustee and beneficiary while
living. I will record the deed to me as an individual and a simultaneous deed
from me to the Sally S. Cornell Living Trust, the actual legal owner of the
property at #9 Maverick Lane.
I am now seeking to have the lot line correction transaction formalized and
approved so that the deeds can be recorded and everything put in order.
Please contact me or my son, Craig, at 544-1925 with any questions.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
-O�

Mrs. Mark Dessy with respect to real property located at 9 Maverick Lane and 8
Maverick Lane (Lots 27-SK and 26-A-SK, respectively) requesting a Certificate of
Compliance for a Lot Line Adjustment to move a southerly portion of the common
side lot lines dividing the two parcels up to 15 feet westerly so that a 735.28 square
foot triangular portion of existing Lot 26-A-SK is placed into Lot 27-SK.
Section 2. California Government Code Subsection 66412(d) authorizes lot
line adjustments without requiring a tentative map, parcel map or final map if: (A)
The lot line adjustment involves two or more existing adjacent parcels, where land
is proposed to be taken from one parcel and added to an adjacent parcel; (B) A greater
number of parcels than originally existed is not thereby created; (C) The lot line
adjustment will create parcels that conform to local zoning and building ordinances;
and (D) The lot line adjustment is approved by the City. The City may impose
conditions on the Lot Line Adjustment in order to make the lot conform to local
zoning and building ordinances, to require the prepayment of real property taxes
prior to the approval of the Lot Line Adjustment or to facilitate the relocation of
existing infrastructure or easements.
Section 3. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public
hearing to consider the application at a regular meeting on May 19, 1998.
Section 4. The Planning Commission finds that the project is categorically
exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality
Act pursuant to a Class 5 exemption provided by Section 15305 of the State CEQA
Guidelines.
Section 5. The Planning Commission has considered the evidence, both
written and oral, presented in connection with this application and finds as follows:
A. Section 16.16.010(B) of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance and
Section 17.16.060(A) of the Rolling Hills Zoning Ordinance requires that each lot in
any subdivision in the RA-S-2 Zone shall have a net area of not less than eighty-
seven thousand one hundred twenty square feet (2.0 acres). The proposed lot line
adjustment will result in Lot 27-SK being 3.63 net acres and Lot 26-A-SK being 2.50

net acres exclusive of: (a) any and all perimeter easements measured to a minimum
lineal distance of ten feet perpendicular to the property lines; (b) any portion of the
lot or parcel of land used for roadway purposes; and (c) any private drive or driveway
which provides access to any other lot or parcel of land.
B. Section 16.16.020 of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance and
Section 17.16.060(B)(3) of the Rolling Hills Zoning Ordinance require that in all cases
where practicable, the sidelines of lots shall be at approximate right angles or radial
to the street upon which such lot fronts. The existing sidelines of both lots are
approximately at right angles or radial to Maverick Lane. The proposed adjustment
will allow the westerly side lot line of Lot 27-SK to be at right angles or radial to the
cul-de-sac at the northern terminus of Maverick Lane. The proposed adjustment
will allow the easterly side, lot line of Lot 26-A-SK to be at right angles or radial to
the cul-de-sac at the northern terminus of Maverick Lane.
C. Section 16.20.230 of the Rolling Hills Subdivision Ordinance requires
that ten (10) foot wide easements be dedicated for bridle trail and utility purposes
over the strips and portions of land within and abutting upon the sidelines and rear
lines of each lot. The proposed lot line adjustment shall continue 10 foot easements
on each side of the adjusted lot line and will result in a 10 foot wide easement along
the westerly side lot line of the adjusted Lot 27-SK and a 10 foot wide easement
along the easterly side lot line of Lot 26-A-SK at the northern terminus of Maverick
Lane.
D. Conditions have been attached to this approval which provide that it
will not impair or limit the City's application of the Site Plan Review Ordinance to
any future development of Lot 27-SK or Lot 26-A-SK.
Section 6. In accordance with the foregoing findings, a Conditional
Certificate of Compliance for lot line adjustment sought in Zoning Case No 576 as
indicated on the map attached hereto as Exhibit "A" is hereby approved as a
Conditional Certificate of Compliance subject to the following conditions:
A. There shall be ten (10) foot easements on each side of the adjusted lot
line within the adjusted boundaries of Lot 27-SK and Lot 26-A-SK. The map
attached to the Conditional Certificate of Compliance, referred hereto as Exhibit "A"
shall delineate and note the easements specified in this paragraph.
B. The lot line adjustment shall not in any way constitute any
representation that the adjusted Lot 27-SK and the adjusted Lot 26-A-SK can be
developed in compliance with current zoning and building ordinance standards.
No development shall occur on the properties without first complying with all
applicable City Building and Zoning requirements and other applicable rules and
regulations.

C. The lot line adjustment shall not in any respect limit or impair the
City's application of the Site Plan Review Ordinance (Ordinance No 221, 1988) to Lot
27-SK and Lot 26-A-SK at such time as an application is made for development.
D. The Certificate of Lot Line Adjustment shall not be issued until a legal
description complying with the delineation of adjustment and the required
easements as specified in Paragraph A of Section 6 are submitted to, and approved by
the City. Upon the City's approval of the legal description, the Conditional
Certificate of Compliance shall be issued by the City, shall be recorded by the
property owner in the offices of the Los Angeles County Recorder, and evidence of
the recordation shall be returned to the City.
E. The applicants shall record the deeds effectuating the transfer
concurrently with the Certificate of Compliance for the Lot Line Adjustment and
shall submit proof of such recordation to the City of Rolling Hills.
F. The applicants shall submit proof of payment of 1997-1998 property
taxes.

conditions or this Lot Line Adjustment shall not be effective.
