RESOLUTION NO. 92-25
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ROLLING HILLS GRANTING SITE PLAN REVIEW APPROVAL FOR A
PROPOSED NEW RESIDENCE IN ZONING CASE NO. 476..
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. Murray Smith
with respect to real property located at 10 Upper Blackwater Canyon'
Road, Rolling Hills (Lot 84-2-RH) requesting Site Plan Review
approval for a proposed new residence.
Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed
public hearing to consider the application for a Site Plan Review
on April 28, 1992, May 19, 1992, June 16, 1992, July 21, 1992, and
August 18, 1992, and conducted a field trip visit on August 6,
1992.
Section 3. The Planning Commission finds that the project is
categorically exempt from environmental review under the California
Environmental Quality Act pursuant to a Class 3 exemption provided
by Section 15303 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
Section 4. Section 17.34.010 requires a development plan to
be submitted for site plan review and' approval before 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 more than twenty-five percent (25%) in any
thirty-six month period. The applicant has proposed to construct a
new single family residence on the subject site.
Section 5. 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 setback and lot coverage requirements. The lot has a
net square foot area of 89,734 square feet. The proposed residence
of 3,566 square feet, garage of 650 square feet, a 450 square foot
stable and a 96 square foot service yard will have 4,312 square
feet which constitutes 5.3% of the lot which is within the maximum
20% structural lot coverage requirement. The total lot coverage
including paved areas and driveway will be 8,162 square feet which
equals 9.1% of the lot, which is within the 35% maximum overall lot
coverage requirement. The project proposed is located on a
93 ' 777 762
•
RESOLUTION NO. 92-25
PAGE 2
relatively large lot which provides adequate open space. The
proposed structure conforms with the natural topographic features
of the lot and the area being graded will provide a new pad that
will conform with the existing open pad area located on the site.
The project is similar and compatible with scale of several
neighboring developments.
B. 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 because
only the building pad will be graded and, subject to conditions
attached to this approval, most of the mature trees will not be
removed, thereby retaining the current drainage pattern and
landscape screening for the site.
C. The development plan follows natural contours of the
site and drainage courses will continue naturally away from the
building pad.
D. The development plan, subject to conditions attached to
this approval, incorporates existing large trees and native
vegetation to the maximum extent feasible and supplements it with
landscaping that is compatible with and enhances the rural
character of the community.
E. The development plan substantially preserves the natural
and undeveloped state of the lot by minimizing building coverage
because the new structure is not overly large and will not cause
the structural and total lot coverage to be exceeded. Significant
portions of the lot will be left undeveloped.
F. The proposed development is harmonious in scale and mass
with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences
because as indicated in Paragraph A, lot coverage maximum will not
be exceeded and the proposed project is of consistent scale with
the neighborhood. The ratio of the proposed structure to lot
coverage is similar to the ratio found on several properties in the
vicinity.
G. The proposed development is sensitive and not
detrimental to convenience and safety of circulation for
pedestrians and vehicles because while the proposed project will
require a new driveway entrance, the, proposed project will utilize
the existing vehicular access, thereby having a less than
significant impact on the roadway.
H. The project conforms with the requirements of the
California Environmental Quality Act and is categorically exempt
from environmental review.

COMPUTATION OF BUILDABLE AREA AND COVERAGE THEREOF,
A policy of the City is to address coverage of an identified "EXISTING
BUILDABLE AREA". Coverage thereof is based upon the calculation of the
"footprint" square footage of the residence, garage, stable (barn), and
other accessory structures proposed and/or developed on said "buildable
area".
For purposes of this calculation, "buildable area" shall be defined as
stated in Section 17.08.135 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code which
declares existing "buildable area" as the portion of a lot that
constitutes the existing building pad and any other contiguous portion
of the lot within allowable setbacks that has an average slope of ten
percent (10%) or less. If there is no existing building pad, it shall
mean that portion of a lot within allowable setbacks that has an average
slope of ten percent (10%) or less.

OWNER'S ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Property development in Rolling Hills is governed by ordinances of
the City of Rolling Hills ("City") and by private deed restrictions
enforced by the Rolling Hills Community Association ("RHCA").
The land development permit process of the City and the RHCA are
completely independent and separate. Both must be satisfied and
approval given by both the City and the RHCA to develop property in
Rolling Hills. An approval by either the City or the RHCA does not mean
or imply or ensure approval by the other.
The suggested sequence of property development is to obtain City
approvals first.
I, (We), the undersigned, acknowledge that the above statement has
