Expires Jul 9, 2014 • • E?(Rvoi-r- RESOLUTION NO. 2014-01 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS GRANTING APPROVAL OF A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR GRADING AND CONSTRUCTION OF A STABLE WITH CORRAL AND GRANTING A VARIANCE TO EXCEED THE MAXIMUM PERMITTED DISTURBANCE OF THE LOT IN ZONING CASE NO. 848 AT 9 CHUCKWAGON ROAD, (LOT 3-CRB), (COOLEY). THE PROJECT HAS BEEN DETERMINED TO BE EXEMPT PURSUANT TO THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA). THE PLANNING COMMISSION DOES HEREBY FIND, RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. An application was duly filed by Mr. Steve Cooley with respect to real property located at 9 Chuckwagon Road (Lot 3-CRB), Rolling Hills, CA requesting a Conditional Use Permit to construct a 1,296 square foot stable with 792 square foot loft to be used as a tack room and 1,000 square foot corral; a Site Plan Review for grading of total of 1,500 cubic yards of dirt and a Variance to exceed the maximum permitted disturbance of the lot. Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the application on November 19, 2013 and December 17, 2013 and at a field trip visit on December 17, 2013. The applicants and neighbors 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' representatives and a couple of neighbors were in attendance at the hearings. The neighbor at 7 Chuckwagon spoke in opposition to the project. Section 3. The property is zoned RAS-1 and consists of 1.33 acres gross in area. The net lot area for construction purposes, as measured by the City, is 45,550 square feet or 1.04 acres. The lot is narrow and long. The property is currently developed with a 2,350 square foot new residence with 622 square foot garage. Section 4. The Planning Commission finds that the project qualifies as Class 3 exemption from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act. Section 5. Section 17.18 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code permits approval of a stable over 200 square feet and a corral over 550 square feet, 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: Reso. 2014-01 9 Chuckwagon 1 • • A. Conditionally permitted uses are not outright permitted by the Rolling Hills Municipal Code. The Commission must consider applications for conditional use permit and may, with such conditions as are deemed necessary, approve a conditional use which will not jeopardize, adversely affect, endanger or otherwise constitute a menace to the public health, safety or general welfare or be materially detrimental to the property of other persons located in the vicinity of such use. B. The granting of a Conditional Use Permit for the construction of the stable and corral would be 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 code development standards for a stable and corral, and the area is located in an area on the property that is adequately sized to accommodate the stable and adjoining corral. The proposed structure is appropriately located in that it will be sufficiently separated from nearby structures used for habitation or containing sleeping quarters. C. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent structures have been considered, and the project will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the proposed stable and corral orientation is not towards neighbors and its general location is of sufficient distance from nearby residences so as to not impact the view or privacy of surrounding neighbors. The proposed stable and corral are to be located largely on an already graded area, therefore preserving the natural terrain of the remaining of the property. D. The project is harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain, and surrounding residences because the stable complies with the low profile residential development pattern of the community and will not give the property an over -built look, and the corral area will remain open and unobstructed. The lot is 1.04 acres net in size and is sufficiently large to accommodate the proposed structure. E. The proposed conditional use complies with all applicable development standards of the zone district and requires a Conditional Use Permit pursuant to Section 17.18 of the Zoning Ordinance. F. 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. Section 6. Sections 17.38.010 through 17.38.050 of the Code permit approval of a variance from the standards and requirements of the Zoning Ordinance when, due to exceptional or extraordinary circumstances applicable to the property and not applicable to other similar properties in the same zone, strict application of the Code would deny the property owner substantial property rights enjoyed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone. A Variance to Section 17.16.070 (B) is required because it states that the lot disturbance shall be limited to 40.0% of the net lot area. The applicant seeks a Reso. 2014-01 2 9 Chuckwagon • • variance from this requirement because the proposed disturbance will be 50.0%. With respect to this request for a Variance, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. There are exceptional and extraordinary circumstances and conditions applicable to this property that do not apply generally to the other properties in the same zone. The property is unique in that a portion of the rear pad was created in the past but not constructed upon. The lot is narrow having 134 feet frontage along Chuckwagon Road and tapering to 90 feet in the rear. The house is located in the front and the only area to place a stable and corral is in the rear and below the residence together with the access road, and therefore grading is required. The additional disturbance is minimal and is to create a use that is strongly encouraged in the City and access thereto from the street. B. The variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right possessed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone, but which would be denied to the property in question absent a variance. Many of the homes in the area are developed with stables and other accessory uses, and the area proposed for grading, a portion of which is already relatively flat, is conducive to such development, as there is no other area on the lot where a stable may be located with less grading and disturbance. C. The granting of the Variance would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such vicinity and zone in which the property is located. Significant portions of the lot will be left undeveloped so as to maintain open space on the property. The additional graded area is on a portion of the lot which is not intrusive to surrounding properties, and will be screened and landscaped with trees and shrubs from nearby residences and from the street so that the graded condition 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. In granting the variance, the spirit and intent of the Zoning Ordinance will be observed. The purpose of the Zoning Ordinance is to regulate development in an orderly fashion and in a manner consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan. Approval of the variance will not impede any goals of the Zoning Ordinance or the General Plan. Rather, the variance will allow the property owner to enjoy the same rights and privileges afforded to other property owners in the. vicinity. The overage requested is not substantial and does not undermine the spirit or intent of the Zoning Ordinance. E. The variance does not grant special privileges to the applicant. To the contrary, absent a variance, the property owner would be deprived of the same rights and privileges afforded to other property owners in the vicinity where the lots have been previously graded and which exceed the maximum permitted disturbance. Unique circumstances applicable to the subject property make it infeasible for the property owner to comply with Section 17.16.070. Reso. 2014-01 9 Chuckwagon 3 • • F. The variance is consistent with the portions of the County of Los Angeles Hazardous Waste Management Plan relating to siting and siting criteria for hazardous waste facilities. Section 7. Section 17.46.030 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. With respect to the Site Plan Review application for the grading for access to the stable and corral, the Planning Commission finds as follows: A. The proposed development is compatible with the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance and surrounding uses because the proposed project complies with the General Plan requirement of low profile, low -density residential development with sufficient open space between surrounding structures. The development conforms to Zoning Code setbacks and lot coverage requirements, except for the disturbed area. The proposed project is screened from the road so as to reduce the visual impact of the development. Although the disturbed are will exceed the maximum permitted, it is required for the stable, which is a requirement of the City that every lot be developed with a stable and corral or an area set aside for a future stable and corral be provided. The area selected for construction of the stable and corral is an area previously set aside for a future stable and corral. 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. The applicant is utilizing an area of the lot that was partially graded previously. Significant portions of the lot will be left undeveloped so as to maintain open space on the property. The structure will be screened. The nature, condition, and development of adjacent uses, buildings, and structures and the topography of the lot have been considered, and the construction will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the adjacent uses, buildings, or structures because the proposed structure 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 of sufficient distance from nearby residences and will substantially utilize the existing relatively flat area for the new construction. C. The proposed activity is compatible with the General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance. 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 and with a discretionary permission by the Planning Commission. The project conforms to the grading requirements and Zoning Code setbacks. D. The proposed development, as conditioned, is harmonious in scale and Reso. 2014-01 9 Chuckwagon 4 • • mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences. The lot coverage maximum set forth in the Zoning Code will not be exceeded and the proposed project is consistent with the scale of the neighborhood and will substantially utilize the existing relatively flat area for the new construction. E. The proposed development is sensitive and not detrimental to the convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles because the proposed development will utilize a narrow, new driveway approach that will not be entirely paved. F. The project conforms to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and is exempt. Section 8. Based upon the foregoing findings in Section 5, 6 and 7, the Planning Commission hereby approves Zoning Case No. 848 a Conditional Use Permit for a stable with a loft and corral, a Site Plan for grading and a Variance to exceed the maximum permitted disturbance of the lot, subject to the following conditions: A. The Conditional Use Permit, Site Plan and Variance approvals shall expire within two years from the effective date of approval as defined in Sections 17.38.070 17.46.080 and 17.42.070, unless otherwise extended pursuant to the requirements of these sections. B. It is declared and made a condition of this approval 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, 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 Buildings and Construction Ordinance, the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Rolling Hills, including specifically Chapter 17.18 of the Zoning Ordinance, and of the zone in which the subject property is located must be complied with unless otherwise set forth in this permit, or shown otherwise on an approved plan. D. The loft area of the structure may be used as a tack room, pursuant to Section 17.18.060 of the Zoning Ordinance, but may not exceed 792 square feet. Only one bathroom is permitted in a stable structure. E. The stable uses and interior and exterior design are subject to the requirements of Section 17.18.060 of the Zoning Ordinance. The surface of the corral, paddock and areas adjacent to the agricultural portion of the stable shall remain permeable at all times, and may not be paved. Reso. 2014-01 9 Chuckwagon 5 • • F.

The size of the structure (1,296 sq.ft.) shall be measured from the exterior surface of the outside walls. J. The total lot coverage proposed, including structures and flatwork, shall not exceed 8,243 square feet or 18.1%, of the net lot area, in conformance with lot coverage limitations (35% max). K. Grading for this project shall not exceed 1,500 cubic yards total (cut and fill), and shall be balanced on site. The total disturbance of the lot shall not exceed 50% as approved herein by this Variance. L. The stable building pad is 4,168 square feet and the coverage on this pad shall not exceed 31.1%. M.

The proposed project consists of a stable and corral addition to the previously developed property. The stable will have a 1,296 S.F. lower floor with an additional 792 S.F. tack room as a second story. There will be a 1,000 S.F. corral attached to the horse stall portion of the stable. A concrete patio is also proposed for the area adjacent to the upper level tack room which horses cannot get to. Three retaining walls are also proposed, one 5' wall along the southern side yard setback line which lines the road, a 3' wall along the south eastern portion of the driveway and a 2' max wall along the upper tack room patio. A retaining wall will also be used for the back wall of the stable and will have a max height of 10', which may also require a variance. The variance is required for going over the allowed 40% disturbed area. The proposed area is 50% and therefore needing a variance. The building pad guideline is not met either but is very close at 31.09% coverage. Wall heights will be less than 2.5' average and therefore not require a variance. -12- • Criteria to be satisfied for grant of Variance Such change is based upon the following described exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions that do not apply generally to other property in the same vicinity and zone. The exceptional condition which doesn't usually apply to other properties is that the majority of the property is a 3:1 slope and in order to create a pad for a stable it is almost impossible not to go over the disturbed area limit. Being that the site is so steep we have decided to regrade the area with a 2:1 slope and go over the disturbed area limit as opposed to putting in walls on the lower side of the hill. Our thought was that it would be more desirable and aesthetically pleasing to have a slope which can be planted on instead of looking up at a wall from Lower Willow Springs Trail. Additionally this is the only portion of the project requiring a variance. The average wall height will be less than 2.5' and we have no walls above the 5' maximum limit. The building pad coverage is 31.09% which is over the 30% guideline but that is only a guideline. Our proposed disturbed area is 50% and the existing is 33.96%. It would not be feasible to recreate the slope with the new allowed 3:1 slope as that is what the current slope of the hill is and we could not "catch" the slope with where the new pad is placed. Such change will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare nor injurious to the property or improvements in such vicinity and zone where property is located because The change would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare nor injurious to the property of improvements in the surrounding vicinity due to the proper building codes being followed for the building of the structures. Additionally, the stable is greatly setback from the roadway so there will be no hazards to those driving on Chuckwagon Road. Additionally, the proposed driveway is an extension of the existing driveway and there have been no problems with said driveway to date. Said stable and grading are also out of the LA County and RHCA easements so no changes will be made to existing trails or access. FILING FEE A filing fee must accompany the application.

The stable will have a 1,296 S.F. lower floor with an additional 792 S.F. tack room as a second story. The lower story consists of four horse stalls, 2 with an area of 144 S.F. each and 2 with an area of 156 S.F. each for a total of 600 S.F. of horse stalls. In the same area as the horse stalls there are also 2 small feed rooms. A 456 S.F. equipment/feed storage area is in the lower level as well. The upper level of the stable will be a 792 S.F. tack room with a sink, bathroom and shower. There will be a 1,000 S.F. corral attached to the horse stall portion of the stable. A concrete patio is also proposed for the area adjacent to the upper level tack room which horses cannot9et to. Three retaining walls are also proposed, one 5' wall along the southern side yard setback line which lines the road, a 3' wail along the south eastern portion of the driveway and a 2' max wall along the upper tack room patio. A retaining wall will also be used for the back wall of the stable and will have a max height of 10'. The planning requirements are all met other than the disturbed area is 50% and therefore needing a variance. The building pad guideline is not met1&ther but is very close at 31.09% coverage. Describe and delineate on plans any new basement area square footage SITE PLAN REVIEW CRITERIA N.A. Site plan review criteria upon which the Planning Commission must make an affirmative finding. Describe in detail the project's conformance with the criteria below: A. Is the project compatible with the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance and surrounding uses? Explain how it compares to the sizes, setbacks and other characteristics of neighboring houses. The project is compatible with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance in that it provides a stable, which is encouraged in Rolling Hills. The property is on a majority sloping lot which greatly increases the disturbed area when any new work is proposed. The setbacks are similar to surrounding houses and the stable is also set the required 25' away from property lines. B. How does the project preserve and integrate 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)? Explain how the project preserves and integrates existing natural features. The existing topography was greatly used for this design in that the existing flat area where a pad was previously created located and was used as the main pad for the stable. By utilizing the existing flat area the additional disturbed area was minimized. The existing slope to the east of the stable needs to be filled though in order to create a corral area. C. How does the site development plan follow natural contours of the site to minimize grading? Extensive grading and recontouring of existing terrain to maximize buildable area shall not be approved. Graded slopes shall be rounded and contoured so as to blend with existing terrain. Grading shall not modify existing drainage or redirect drainage flow unless into an existing drainage course. Explain the nature and extent of the impact of grading and proposed minimization on lots. The natural contours are followed as much as possible for this design to minimize grading. The maioritv of the grading is the creation of the flat corral area with fill provided by the cut required for the barn. Drainage will be redirected around the building and return to natural conditions by the time it leaves the property. Retaining walls were used in order to minimize the overall disturbed area and slopes were rounded to blend with the existing contours and slopes. D. To what extent does the site development plan preserve surrounding native vegetation and supplement it with landscaping that is compatible with and enhances the rural character of the community? Landscaping should provide a buffer and transition zone between private and public areas. Explain how the project preserves native vegetation, integrates landscaping and creates buffers. -13- • The site development plan preserved the surrounding natural vegetation by minimizing the amount of disturbed area. The area which is disturbed will be replanted with vegetation which matches surrounding areas. E. How does the site development plan preserve the natural and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage? Lot coverage requirements shall be regarded as maximums and the actual amount of lot coverage permitted should depend upon the existing buildable area of the lot. The site development plan preserves the surrounding natural vegetation by minimizing the building coverage by having a slope to the corral area and using a retaining wall to differentiate the pads. The stable fits nicely on the pad and only goes over the building pad guideline by 1.09%. The portions of the slope being disturbed will be regraded to 2:1 which will also be planted. F. Is the site development plan harmonious in scale and mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences? Setbacks shall be regarded as minimums and more restrictive setbacks shall be imposed where necessary to assure proportionality and openness. Explain how the proposed project setbacks compare with the existing setbacks of neighboring properties. The site development is harmonious in scale and mass with the site. The disturbed area calculation is 10% over the allowed however due to the nature of the existing conditions on the site it would be very hard to put a stable anywhere on the property without going over this condition. The structural and flat -work coverage are also under the maximum value even with the new addition. G. Is the site development plan sensitive and not detrimental to convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles? Explain how the number and types of vehicles relate to the driveway location, design, landscaping and other on -site parking or storage areas. The Site Plan is sensitive and not detrimental to convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles as it is set back from the roadway and the access road has an 11' driveway connecting to it which is larger than the required 6'. The driveway down to the stable from the house will have a max slope of 25% and will allow for access from feed trucks and for equipment storage. A portion of this driveway is already built from previous construction and has posed no risks in the time it has been in use. H. Does the site development plan conform with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act? Explain how the project impacts the environment, e.g. significant impact, proposed mitigation measures. The Site Plan is sensitive conforms with the requirements of C.E.Q.A and will not have any significant impacts to the environment. -14- I hereby certify that the statements furnished above, and in attached exhibits, presents the data and information required for the site plan review criteria evaluation to the best of my ability; and, that the facts, statements and other information presented are true drrect to the est of my knowledge and belief.

Attach photographs of the vicinity. Snapshots or polaroid photos will be accepted. The surrounding properties are single family residences as well. In addition to the residence the property to the North has a pool and tennis court, both of which appear to be in the setback; while the property to the South has a corral. Both properties have a large rear yard consisting mostly of a 3:1 slope descending towards the rear property line, with little to no landscaping. There is no information on the plans or animals in the area. 29.

A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by the information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact" answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the one involved (e.g. the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A "No Impact" answer should be explained where it is based on project -specific factors as well as general standards (e.g. the project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project -specific screening analysis). 2. All answers must take account of the whole action involved, including off -site as well as on -site, cumulative as well as project -level, indirect as well as direct, and construction as well as operational impacts. 3. Once the Lead Agency has determined that a particular physical impact may occur, then the checklist answers must indicate whether the impact is potentially significant, less than significant with mitigation, or less than significant. "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect may be significant. If there are one or more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made, an EIR is required. 4. "Negative Declaration: Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less Than Significant Impact." The Lead Agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level (mitigation measures from Section XVII, "Earlier Analyses," above may be cross-referenced). 5. Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration. See State CEQA Guidelines Section 15063(c)(3)(D). In this case, a brief discussion should identify the following: a. Earlier Analysis Used. Identify and state where they are available for review. b. Impacts Adequately Addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were within the scope of and adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and state whether such effects were addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis. c. Mitigation Measures. For effects that are "Less Than Significant With Mitigation Measures Incorporated," describe the mitigation measures which were incorporated or refined from the earlier document and the extent to which they address site -specific conditions for the project. 6. Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to information sources for potential impacts (e.g., general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a previously prepared or outside document should, where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is substantiated. 7. Supporting Information Sources: A source list should be attached, and other sources used or individuals contacted should be cited in the discussion. 8. This is only a suggested form, and lead agencies are free to use different formats; however, lead agencies should normally address the questions from this checklist that are relevant to a project's environmental effects in whatever format is selected. 9. The explanation of each issue should identify: a. the significance criteria or threshold, if any, used to evaluate each question; and b. the mitigation measure identified, if any, to reduce the impact to less than significance. 5 t'ess'ri Significant Less Than With :: ::Significant ;.
