SITE LOCATION: ZONING AND SIZE: APPLICANT: REPRESENTATIVE: PUBLISHED: RE -NOTICED ZONING CASE NO. 764 8 HACKAMORE ROAD (LOT 29-B-EF) RA-S-1, 3.01 ACRES (GROSS) MR. GREGORY NOEL DOUGLAS MCHATTIE, BOLTON ENGINEERING OCTOBER 11, 2008 NOVEMBER 24, 2008 REQUEST AND RECOMMENDATION Request for Site Plan Review for grading of 332 cubic yards of cut and 332 cubic yards of fill for an access road to a proposed stable, and to construct a 5-foot wall along an existing stable pad, and Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to retain an existing 728 square foot detached storage structure, previously approved as a stable. It is recommended that the Planning Commission after reviewing the information submitted by the applicant adopt Resolution No. 2008-21 or provide other direction to staff. BACKGROUND 1. At the November 18, 2008 Planning Commission meeting the Commission directed staff to prepare a Resolution approving the proposed project. The vote was 4-0- 1. Commissioner Sommer was absent. The Commission kept the public hearing open, so that the applicant may present additional information as requested by the Planning Commission including cross section of the graded areas, (access road); plan showing that the access to the proposed stable will not exceed 25%, and showing a 4-foot dirt path along the existing driveway for horse passage. During a field trip visit to the site, prior to the evening meeting on November 18, the Commission questioned whether the soil could be balanced on site. At the evening meeting of November 18, the applicant's representative provided information on the grading quantities and showed a balanced cut and fill. is Printed on Recycled Paper 2. The applicant's representative submitted a plan showing that the slope of the access road will not exceed 25% and cross section for the access road and for the stable pad. The applicant is requesting that the requirement for the 4-foot dirt path along the top driveway be waived, as there is a trail along the northeastern property line, which connects to the proposed access to the stable. Applicant's representative will address the Commission at the meeting regarding this request. 3. The revised plan also shows a 6" curb along the northern portion of the proposed access road. According to the representative water will drain along that curb and the access road and will be collected in a catch basin on the corral pad and carried into the dissipater. 4. The attached Resolution No. 2008-21 contains standard findings of facts and conditions of approval including conditions placed by the Planning Commission: • That any further development on the property require a new application to be reviewed by the Planning Commission • That the access road to the proposed stable/ corral not exceed 25% • That a 4-foot wide dirt path be provided along the existing driveway (along the wall) • That the existing cement pathway (past the edge of the garage) be re -graded to not to exceed 25% slope • That the storage structure be used only as storage, that it not be converted to other use, unless approved by the Planning Commission, that it may not be used as habitable or sleeping quarters and that it may not contain kitchen facilities • That landscaping plan be provided for the graded areas outside the access road • That the access road to the stable not be paved. If D.G. or other pervious surface is used that it be roughened • That any wall constructed in connection with the future stable not exceed 5' in height RESOLUTION NO. 2008-21 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING APPROVAL OF A SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR GRADING FOR AN ACCESS ROAD TO A PROPOSED STABLE, A WALL AND A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (CUP) TO RETAIN AN EXISTING STORAGE STRUCTURE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED AS A STABLE IN ZONING CASE NO. 764, AT 8 HACKAMORE ROAD, (LOT 29-B- EF), (NOEL). 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. Gregory Noel with respect to real property located at 8 Hackamore Road (Lot 29-B-EF), Rolling Hills, CA requesting a Site Plan Review for grading of 332 cubic yards of cut and 332 cubic yards of fill for an access road to a proposed stable and corral, construction of a 5-foot future stable wall, and a Conditional Use Permit to retain an existing 728 square foot detached storage building that was previously approved as a stable. The subject property is developed with a single-family residence. Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the application on October 21, 2008, November 18, 2008, December 9, 2008, and at a field trip visit on November 18, 2008. The applicants were 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 applicants' representative was in attendance at the hearings. On November 18, 2008, the Planning Commission directed staff to prepare a resolution of approval for the Site Plan Review for wall and grading of 332 cubic yards of cut and fill to provide an access pathway to a proposed 1,750 square foot stable with 864 square foot loft, subject to conditions. The proposed stable access is proposed to extend from the end of the existing paved main driveway serving the residence. The Planning Commission concurrently granted approval of a Conditional Use Permit to allow the applicant to retain an existing detached storage building on the premises. Section 3. The property is zoned RAS-1 and consists of 3.01 acres gross and 2.38 acres (103,760 s.f.) net lot area for development purposes. The property fronts on the cul-de-sac on Hackamore Road and is developed with a 4,160 square foot residence, 440 square foot garage, 480 square foot swimming pool, pool equipment, service yard, above ground deck and 728 square foot detached storage structure originally approved as a stable and located to the rear of the residence. 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. Resolution 2008-21 Noel 1 Section 5. Section 17.46.020(A)(1) requires a Site Plan Review for grading projects that require a grading permit. The applicants propose to grade 332 cubic yards of cut and 332 cubic yards of fill required for a new access road to serve a proposed 1,750 square foot stable with 864 square foot loft, and corral. With respect to the Site Plan Review application for the grading work, the Planning Commission makes the following findings of fact: A. The proposed activity is compatible with the General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance in that an equestrian use and activity is being proposed that will preserve the distinctive rural residential character of the City. The Land Use Element of the General Plan establishes the maintenance of strict grading practices to preserve the community's natural terrain. The Building Code and the Zoning Ordinance require a balanced cut and fill ratio and do not permit import or export of soil, except under special circumstances applicable to a property or with a discretionary permission by the Planning Commission. Due to the location of the proposed new stable, the topography of the lot and existing development and, in order to provide access to the stable and corral, the grading is necessary. The grading of 332 cubic yards of cut and fill is the minimum necessary to provide the required stable access. B. The proposed activity 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). Although grading activity is necessary to construct the stable access road, the grading is proposed to follow the existing slope of the land. The development plan substantially preserves the natural and undeveloped state of the lot, as the corral area will be left as open space, and enhances it by additional landscaping, which is a requirement of this resolution. Significant portions of the lot will be left undeveloped so as to maintain open space on the property. The Planning Commission found that the approved location is most desirous in that it will not require great amount of grading, is in an area of the lot to the rear of and away from the residence and will not be visible from Hackamore Road. C. 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 access road to the stable and corral will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the proposed project will be constructed on a portion of the lot which is least intrusive to surrounding properties, will be screened and landscaped with trees and shrubs, is a sufficient distance from nearby residences and the street so that the proposed construction will not impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors, and will permit the owners to enjoy their property without deleterious infringement on the rights of surrounding property owners. D. The proposed access road is a harmonious use and will blend with the natural terrain and surrounding residences. The proposed project is consistent with the scale of the neighborhood. Resolution 2008-21 Noel E. The development plan will be based upon compliance with the conditions contained in this Resolution, supplement the existing vegetation with landscaping that is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community. F. The proposed development is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles on the subject site in that the slope of the new access road between the home and proposed stable is limited to 25% maximum slope and will have a surface treatment suitable for equestrian use. G. The project conforms to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and is exempt from its requirements. Section 6. Section 17.16.200(J) of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code permits approval of a freestanding storage structure exceeding 120 square feet under certain conditions, provided the Planning Commission approves a Conditional Use Permit. With respect to this request for a Conditional Use Permit, the Planning Commission finds as follows regarding the proposal to retain an existing 728 square foot storage building that was originally approved as a stable: A. The granting of a Conditional Use Permit for the storage structure is consistent with the purposes and objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan because the use is consistent with similar uses in the community, meets all the applicable development standards of the Zoning Ordinance, no grading is requested and no deviations from the development standards are requested. B. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent uses, buildings, and structures have been considered, and the retention of a storage structure will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the storage structure is located to the rear and away from other ancillary uses of the residence and is of sufficient distance from nearby residences so as to 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 storage structure complies with the low profile residential development pattern of the community and is screened from neighbors' view. D. The proposed conditional use complies with all applicable development standards of the zone district because the 728 square foot size of the storage structure does not exceed the maximum permitted under the Municipal Code and the storage structure does not encroach into any setback areas and is not located in the front. E. The proposed conditional use is consistent with the portions of the Los Angeles County Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to 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. Resolution 2008-21 Noel 3 • • F. The proposed conditional use observes the spirit and intent of Title 17 of the Zoning Code because in addition to retaining the subject structure for storage, the applicant concurrently proposes to construct a new stable and related access road, thereby eliminating the need to reserve the subject storage structure for a stable use as it was originally approved. No grading or additional disturbance is necessary to continue the existing storage use. The structure is screened from adjacent properties and is not obtrusive to neighbors. Section 7. Based upon the foregoing findings in sections 5 and 6 of this Resolution, the Planning Commission hereby approves the Site Plan Review and Conditional Use Permit in Zoning Case No. 764 for, respectively, grading of 332 cubic yards or cut and fill (balanced), a 5-foot wall and retention of a 728 square foot former stable as a storage structure, subject to the following conditions: A. The Site Plan and Conditional Use Permit approvals shall expire within two years from the effective date of approval if work has not commenced as defined in Sections 17.42.070(A) and 17.46.080 . of the Zoning Ordinance, unless otherwise extended pursuant to the requirements of these sections. B. It is declared and made a condition of the approval, that if any conditions thereof are violated, this approval shall be suspended and the privileges granted thereunder shall lapse; provided that the City has given the applicants written notice to cease such violation, the opportunity for a hearing has been provided, and if requested, has been held, and thereafter the applicant fails to correct the violation within a period of thirty (30) days from the date of the City's determination. C. All requirements of the Building and Construction Ordinance, 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. This shall include, but not be limited to, the requirements of the Outdoor Lighting Ordinance, Undergrounding of Utilities Ordinance, Roof Covering Ordinance, requirements for access to stables, and others. D. The 728 square foot storage structure shall be used exclusively for incidental residential storage and shall not be converted to other uses, unless approved by the Planning Commission by a separate Conditional Use Permit. The storage structure may not be used as habitable or sleeping quarters, may not contain cooking facilities and may not be rented out. E. The lot shall be developed and maintained in substantial conformance with the site plan on file dated December 4, 2008, and include a detached storage structure, proposed stable and corral (to be approved administratively), not to exceed 5-foot retaining wall and access road, accessory to an existing single-family residence, in compliance with these conditions. F. Structural lot coverage shall not exceed 10,641 square feet or 10.2% in conformance with lot coverage limitations. Resolution 2008-21 Noel • • G. Total lot coverage of structures and paved areas shall not exceed 17,841 square feet or 17.2% in conformance with lot coverage limitations. H. The disturbed area of the lot shall not exceed 31,096 square feet or 30% in conformance with disturbed area limitations. I.

The residential building pad shall not exceed 66.4% coverage; the converted stable to storage room pad shall not exceed 40.2% coverage, and the stable pad shall not exceed 21.4% coverage, unless otherwise approved by the Planning Commission. L. No grading permit shall be issued for the access road to the proposed stable, unless approval for the stable has been granted by City staff and by the Rolling Hills Community Association Architectural Committee, and plans for the stable have been reviewed and approved by L.A. County Building and Safety Department. M. Notwithstanding Sections 17.46.020 and 17.46.070 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code, any further modification or development on the property, which would constitute additional structural development or grading shall require the filing of a new application for approval by the Planning Commission. N. Prior to issuance of a building permit for the grading of the access road, two copies of landscaping plan for the graded areas shall be submitted to the Planning Department for review and approval. The landscaping shall include water efficient irrigation that incorporates low gallonage irrigation system, utilizes automatic controllers, incorporates an irrigation design using "hydrozones," considers slope factors and climate conditions in design, and utilizes means to reduce water waste resulting from runoff and overspray. Further, landscaping shall be designed using mature trees and shrubs so as not to obstruct views of neighboring properties but to screen the project. O. The access to the stable shall not exceed 25% in slope and shall not be paved, however a pervious surface may be installed. This includes the area of the existing cement driveway, which shall be removed and re -graded, beginning north of the garage. Staff shall review and approve the surface material proposed for the access road. P. A minimum of 50% of the demolition of the concrete cement driveway shall be recycled. Prior to granting a final inspection, verification of recycling shall be submitted to staff. Resolution 2008-21 Noel 5(4) Q.

REVISED CALCULATIONS Since the preparation of the staff report for today's meeting, the applicants' representative submitted revised calculations for the size of the pads and for disturbed areas. Calculations were also added for an existing deck. Staff verified the calculations, and they are as follows: 1. There are three building pads on the property (residence, storage structure and proposed stable). The residential building pad is 11,840 square feet and has an existing coverage of 7,864 sq.ft. of structures, including the 2,640 sq.ft. deck or 66.4%, (previously shown 13,120 square feet pad with coverage of 39.8%-did not include the deck). The storage structure pad is 1808 square feet with coverage of 40.2%, (previously reported 2,960 square foot pad with coverage of 24.6%). The stable pad will encompass 8,160 square feet, and will have coverage of 1,750 square feet or 21.4%, (no change from previously reported). No changes are proposed to the existing residence or the storage (previously barn) area, and therefore the coverage will not change. Combined coverage on all three building pads will be 48.8%, (previously reported 31.8%). h 2. The structural lot coverage is proposed at 10,641 square feet or 10.2% (currently 8.5%) of the 103,760 square foot net lot area (20% max. permitted); and the total lot coverage including the structures and paved areas is proposed to be 17,841 square feet or 17.2% (currently 15.5%), (35% max. permitted). (No change from previously reported). 3. 31,096 square feet or 30.0% of the lot is proposed to be disturbed, including the proposed access road and related grading (40% permitted), (previously reported 37,160 square feet or 35.8%). Currently 25.0% is disturbed, (previously reported 34.1%).

SITE LOCATION: ZONING AND SIZE: APPLICANT: REPRESENTATIVE: PUBLISHED: ZONING CASE NO. 764 8 HACKMORE ROAD (LOT 29-B-EF) RA-S-1, 3.01 ACRES (GROSS) MR. GREGORY NOEL DOUGLAS MCHATTIE, BOLTON ENGINEERING OCTOBER 11, 2008 REQUEST AND RECOMMENDATION Request for Site Plan Review for grading of 332 cubic yards of cut and 332 cubic yards of fill for an access road to a proposed stable, and Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to retain an existing detached storage structure, previously approved as a stable. It is recommended that the Planning Commission review the staff report, open the public hearing, consider the criteria for granting of a Site Plan Review and a CUP, take public testimony and schedule a field trip. BACKGROUND 1. The property is located at the cul-de-sac on Hackamore Road and is zoned RAS-1. The gross lot area is 3.01 acres (excluding the roadway easement). The net lot area for construction purposes is 2.38 acres or 103,760 square feet. 2. The applicant requests Site Plan Review approval to grade 332 cubic yards of earth (balanced on -site) to accommodate a new access drive for a proposed 1,750 square foot stable with 864 square foot loft and over an 6,000 square foot corral area. The new stable and corral are proposed on an existing building pad located about 105 feet to the rear of the existing residence. With the exception of the access drive grading, the stable and corral meet all applicable standards for over the counter approval. Public: YOLANTA on Server:Zoning (ACTIVE):764, Noel 10-21-08 ZC NO. 764 1 r-1 Printed on Recycled Paper • • 3. The applicant concurrently requests approval to retain an existing 728 square foot accessory structure on the property. This structure is located downhill from the residence and was originally approved in 1977 as a stable. It has been converted to storage use. A Conditional Use Permit is required for this type of detached accessory structure pursuant to Section 17.16.210. of the Zoning Ordinance. The property owner is now planning to construct a new conforming stable, therefore the Planning Commission may consider approving the CUP authorizing the use of the existing structure for storage. 4. In addition to the storage structure, the property is currently developed with a 4,160 square foot residence and 440 square foot garage constructed in 1949, 480 square foot swimming pool and 144 square foot service yard/pool equipment area constructed in 1979, and 2,640 square foot deck constructed in 1986. No alterations are being proposed to these structures. MUNICIPAL CODE COMPLIANCE 5. The applicant proposes to construct a 1,750 square foot stable with 864 square foot loft and related access road. Grading activity for the access road requires Site Plan Review approval. Concurrently the applicant proposes to retain a 728 square foot storage structure that was originally approved as a stable. A Conditional Use Permit is required to authorize the owner to retain the original stable as an accessory storage use. 6. Grading will entail cut and fill of 332 cubic yards of dirt, to be balanced on site, to create the access road to the stable. The dirt will be used as backfill for the access road and the stable wall. A landscaping plan will be required for the graded areas. 7. The proposed access road will be an extension of the existing main driveway, starting just beyond the existing storage building (converted stable) and descending to an existing level pad area that will accommodate the new stable. The new road, a portion of which will be located in the 20-foot northerly side setback, will have a slope of 25% maximum, in conformity with the code. A new 6-inch curb is proposed along the downhill side (west side) of the access road and along the corral area adjacent to the stable. It will be required that a three rail fence be erected around the corral. A drainage system is proposed that will collect and divert water from the stable building and pad to a downhill location. On the uphill side (east side) of the stable a new wall is proposed, which will mainly be buried in the slope. The portions of the wall that extend beyond both ends of the stable will be visible from the interior of the corral and will be between 4.3 and 5 feet in height, in conformity with the code. 8. There are three building pads on the property (residence, storage structure and proposed stable). The residential building pad is 13,120 square feet and has building coverage of 39.8%. The storage structure pad is 2,960 square feet Public: YOLANTA on Server:Zoning (ACTIVE):764, Noel 10-21-08 ZC NO. 764 2 and has coverage of 728 square feet or 24.6%. The stable pad, with the proposed grading will encompass 8,160 square feet, and will have coverage of 1,750 square feet or 21.4%. The two pads that are the subject of this review will have coverage within the 30% guideline of the code. No changes are proposed to the existing residence, and therefore the coverage will not change. Combined coverage on all three building pads will be 31.8%. 9. The structural lot coverage is proposed at 10,641 square feet or 10.2% (currently 8.5%) of the 103,760 square foot net lot area (20% max. permitted); and the total lot coverage including the structures and paved areas is proposed to be 17,841 square feet or 17.2% (currently 15.5%), (35% max. permitted). 10. 37,160 square feet or 35.8% of the lot is disturbed, including the proposed access road and related grading (40% permitted). The access road will have a Grasscrete or similar surface and will not be paved. CONCLUSION 11. When reviewing a development application the Planning Commission should consider whether the proposed project is consistent with the City's General Plan; incorporates environmentally and aesthetically sensitive grading practices; preserves existing mature vegetation; is compatible and consistent with the scale, massing and development pattern in the immediate project vicinity; and otherwise preserves and protects the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Rolling Hills. 12. A detached accessory storage structure is a use that requires a Conditional Use Permit. In reviewing a CUP the Planning Commission must find that the use is consistent with the General Plan and development standards of the City, including provision for open space and maintaining rural environment and that the use will not adversely affect adjacent properties. 13. The applicant's representative states that the subject storage structure has existed at this location for several years and it will have no negative effect on the property. A truly usable stable will be constructed in its place. 14. With the proposal, a new stable and corral will be constructed which significantly exceed the minimum size required. Therefore approval of the CUP to authorize the conversion of the original stable to storage will not interfere or eliminate the equestrian uses on the property. OTHER AGENCIES APPROVAL 15. Rolling Hills Community Association will review this project at a later date. 16.
