Planning Commission review Planning Commission review • Amy Mendez Six Maverick .Lane Rolling Hills, California 90274 July 13, 1999 Ms. Lola M. Ungar Planning Director City of Rolling Hills Two Portuguese Bend Road Rolling Hills, California 90274 [TE@Hricq JUL 1 5 1999 CITY OF ROLLING HILLS Ay Dear Ms. Ungar: As you and I discussed in our telephone conversation this afternoon, my husband and I are in receipt of a Notice of Public Hearing before the Planning Commission of the City of Rolling Hills, California regarding 7 ning Case No. 2Z After reviewing the plans at City Hall, I was unable to determine whether the intended improvements will have any detrimental effect on the view from our property, which is adjacent to the subject property. At this time, we wish to register our concern regarding the possible impairment of our view. Once the silhouettes have been installed, we will have a better idea of the effect of the proposed construction and we will contact you again if we feel some action may be needed. Thank you for your help with this matter. Sincerely yours, RESOLUTION NO. 99-16 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO CONSTRUCT A GUEST HOUSE AND GRANTING SITE PLAN REVIEW APPROVAL TO PERMIT THE CONSTRUCTION OF A GUEST HOUSE, A STABLE WITH LOFT AND ADJACENT CORRAL, AND SUBSTANTIAL RESIDENTIAL ADDITIONS THAT REQUIRE GRADING AT AN EXISTING SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE IN ZONING CASE NO. 597. 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. Mark Dessy with respect to real property located at 8 Maverick Lane (Lot 26-A-SK), Rolling Hills, requesting the following: (1) a Conditional Use Permit to construct a recreation room and (2) Site Plan Review to permit the construction of a new guest house, a stable with loft and adjacent corral and substantial residential additions that require grading at an existing single family residence. During the hearing process, the request for a recreation room was changed to a request for a guest house. Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the applications on July 20, 1999 and August 17, 1999 and at a field trip visit on July 27, 1999. The applicant was 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, from all persons protesting the same, and from members of the City staff and the Planning Commission having reviewed, analyzed and studied said proposal. The applicant was in attendance at the hearing. Section 3. The Planning Commission finds that the project qualifies as a Class 1 Exemption (State CA Guidelines, Section 15301(e)) and is therefore categorically exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act. Section 4. Sections 17.16.210(A)(5) of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code permits approval of a guest house under certain conditions. The applicants are requesting to construct an 800 square foot guest house at the eastern 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 guest house would be consistent with the purposes and objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan and will be desirable for the public convenience and RESOLUTION NO. 99-16 Page 1 of 8 • • welfare because the use is consistent with similar uses in the community, and the area proposed for the guest house would be located in an area on the property where such use will not change the existing configuration of structures on the lot. B. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent uses, buildings, and structures have been considered, and the construction of a guest house will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the proposed guest house will be constructed on a portion of the residential building pad and is a sufficient distance from nearby residences so that the guest house 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 guest house will comply with the low profile residential development pattern of the community and is located on a 2.859 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 800 square foot size of the guest house equals the 800 square foot maximum permitted and the guest house does not encroach into any 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 because a stable structure and adjacent corral will be located at the northeastern 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 800 square foot guest house in accordance with the development plan dated August 13, 1999 and marked Exhibit A in Zoning Case No. 597 subject to the conditions contained in Section 8 of this resolution. Section 6. Section 17.46.020 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code 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 or structure by more than twenty-five percent (25%) in any thirty-six month period. The applicants request Site Plan Review to permit the construction of a new guest house, a stable with loft and adjacent corral, and substantial RESOLUTION NO. 99-16 Page 2 of 8 • • residential additions that require grading at an existing single family residence. With respect to the Site Plan Review application, the Planning Commission makes the following findings of fact: 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 with the Conditional Use Permit for. a guest house approved in Section 5. The lot has a net square foot area of 110,320 square feet. The residence (5,485 sq.ft.), attached garage (865 sq.ft.), proposed guest house (800 sq.ft.), pool (640 sq.ft.), stable (1,375 sq.ft.), service yard (96 sq.ft.) will have 9,261 square feet which constitutes 8.4% of the lot which is within the maximum 20% structural lot coverage requirement. The total lot coverage including paved areas and driveway will be 19,421 square feet which equals 17.6% of the lot, which is within the 35% maximum overall lot coverage requirement. The proposed project is on a relatively large lot with most of the proposed structures located below a hill that is away from the road so as to reduce the visual impact of the development. The building pad coverage proposed for the 27,680 square foot residential building pad is 28.5%, building pad coverage proposed for the 2,875 square foot stable pad will be 47.8%, and the total building pad coverage will be 30.3%. B. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent uses, buildings, and structures have been considered, and the construction of a guest house, a stable with loft and adjacent corral, and substantial residential additions that require grading would not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the proposed new structures would be constructed close to the hillside and are a sufficient distance from nearby residences so that the structures would not impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors. 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 maximum will not be exceeded and the proposed project is consistent with the scale of the neighborhood when compared to this irregular -shaped lot. Grading shall be permitted only to restore the natural slope of the property. D. The proposed development preserves and integrates into the site design, to the maximum extent feasible, existing natural topographic features of the lot including surrounding native vegetation, mature trees, drainage courses, and land forms (such as hillsides and knolls) because a minimum amount of grading is proposed and will only be done to provide approved drainage that will flow away from the residence, new structures, and existing neighboring residences. RESOLUTION NO. 99-16 Page 3 of 8 • • E. 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 structural and total lot coverage to be exceeded. The structures proposed will not be visible from Maverick Lane. Significant portions of the lot will be left undeveloped so as to maintain scenic vistas across portions of the property. F. The development plan follows natural contours of the site to minimize grading and the natural drainage courses will continue to the canyons at the north side (rear) of this lot. G. 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. 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 the same driveway to Maverick Lane for access. I. The project conforms with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and is categorically exempt from environmental review. Section 7. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning Commission hereby approves the Site Plan Review application for Zoning Case No. 597 forr a proposed construction of a guest house, a stable with loft and adjacent corral, and substantial residential additions that require grading at an existing single family residence in accordance with the development plan dated August 13, 1999, and marked Exhibit A in Zoning Case No. 597 subject to the conditions contained in Section 8 of this resolution. Section 8. The Conditional Use Permit for a guest house approved in Section 5 and the Site Plan Review approved in Section 7 of this Resolution are subject to the following conditions: A. The Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review approvals shall expire within one year from the effective date of approval as defined in Sections 17.42.070(A) and 17.46.080(A) unless otherwise extended pursuant to the requirements of those sections. 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 applicant has been given written notice to cease such violation, the opportunity for a hearing has been provided, and if requested, has been held, RESOLUTION NO. 99-16 Page 4 of 8 • and thereafter the applicant fails to correct the violation within a period of thirty (30) days from the date of the City's determination.

T. The property owners shall be required to conform with the air quality management district requirements, stormwater pollution prevention practices, county and local ordinances and engineering practices so that people or property are not exposed to undue vehicle trips, noise, dust, objectionable odors, landslides, mudflows, erosion, or land subsidence.
