748, Construct an above ground deck, CorrespondenceMEMO TO FILE:
DATE: NOVEMBER 22, 2010
2 PINE TREE LANE
A final inspection was granted to the property for work done to the outside: pool,
deck, play area, drainage, landscaping of disturbed slopes and short wall by the play
area.
Prior to granting a final inspection, the play area was required to be smoothed out in
the far corner and dirt berms installed, so that most of the water would be contained
on 2 Pine Tree and not overflow to the neighboring property -4 Pine Tree Lane. This
was done and approved by the County Inspector.
Less than 2000 sq.ft. play area which required less than 3-foot cut, thus the wall,
was administratively approved several years ago. On three sides of the play area the
owner installed a net like loosely fitted enclosure that is attached to posts that are
removable. The posts and net are 6 feet tall.
The applicant was informed that because of the non -permanent and net like nature
of the enclosure, staff at this time is not deeming this to fall under the definition of a
sports court. However, should there be a complaint or should a permanent
enclosure be installed, the play area would be considered a "sports court" and a CUP
approval would be required.
In addition, pursuant to the Building Code any fence over 6 feet requires a building
permit. The County inspector informed the owner that if this enclosure becomes
permanent and if it is over 6 ft. it will require a building permit.

Message; Yolanta, attached are all of the reports that we have on file regarding the pool
at #2 Pine Tree. Based upon the submitted reports it looks like the consultant is going to
require deepened foundations (caissons) for the proposed pool. Again, please note that
we have not approved any plans for the pool.

RESOLUTION NO. 2007-21
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ROLLING HILLS GRANTING APPROVAL OF A SITE PLAN REVIEW
TO CONSTRUCT AN ABOVE GROUND DECK AT A SINGLE
FAMILY RESIDENCE AT 2 PINE TREE LANE, IN ZONING CASE
NO. 748 (LOT 96-2-RH), (RIETDYK).
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. Guido Rietdyk with respect to
real property located at 2 Pine Tree Lane, (Lot 96-2RH), Rolling Hills, CA requesting a
Site Plan Review to permit construction of a 106 square foot above grade deck.;
Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings
to consider the application at a field trip on December 18, and at their regular 'meeting
on December 18, 2007. 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 was
in attendance at the hearings.
Section 3. The property is zoned RAS-2 and is 2.24 acres (gross) in size,
excluding roadway easement. A residence was constructed on the site in 1985.
Section 4. The Planning Commission finds that the project qualifies as a Class
3 Exemption (The State of CA Guidelines, Section 15303) and is therefore categorically
exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act.
Section 5. Section 17.12.040 defines an above ground deck a structure, which
requires a Site Plan Review. With respect to the Site Plan Review application requesting
construction of the deck, 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 structure complies 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 setbacks, lot disturbance and lot coverage requirements. The proposed project is
screened from the road so as to reduce the visual impact of the development.
B. The development plan substantially preserves the natural and
undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage because the new
structure will not cause the lot to look overdeveloped. Significant portions of the lot will
be left undeveloped so as to maintain open space on the property. The nature,
condition, and development of adjacent uses, buildings, and structures and the
topography of the lot have been considered, and the construction of the deck will not
adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the adjacent uses, buildings, or
