Dear Mr. Joo and Ms. Yoo:
Please be advised that the Planning Commission at their February 18, 2014 field trip
continued the public hearing in your case to their March 18, 2014 meeting in the field to
allow you time to revise the scope of the project. Although they greatly appreciated the
changes you made since the last meeting, they continue to express concerns as follows:
• Size of house (one Commissioner)
• Filling in of the canyon along the north-eastern side of the property to enlarge
the pad; consider smaller building pad and closer to the house, so that the area of
fill is smaller and less deep. The Commission commented on the natural state of
that area and that it should be preserved as much as possible. They also
commented that this is a natural drainage course and it is not advisable to
change it.
• Consider lowering the entire house
Please submit revised plans and calculations by no later than March 7, 2014 to be placed
on the March 18, 2014 Planning Commission meeting in the field. You must provide
accurate and detailed grading information, showing the correct contours for grading.
Please let me know as soon as possible if you'll be ready to continue the project review
by the Commission at the March meeting (field trip). The Commission requested that the
major corners and the new limits of grading and building pad be shown through staking
and that the old staking remain for comparison.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Dear Mr. Joo and Ms. Yoo:
Please be advised that the Planning Commission at their December 17, 2013 meeting
continued the public hearing in your case to their January 21, 2014 meeting to allow you
time to revise the scope of the project. Although they greatly appreciated the changes
you made since the November meeting, they continue to express concerns as follows:
• Size of house
• Amount of grading
• Filling in of a canyon along the northern side of the house to enlarge the pad
• Massiveness of the structure; consider lowering the entire house a few feet
• Consider a second pad for the pool/pool house, rather than raise the pad to meet
the elevation of the residential pad
Please submit revised plans and calculations by no later than January 7 to be placed on
the January 21, 2014 Planning Commission meeting. It is advisable that your consult a
civil engineer and provide accurate and detailed grading information.
Please let me know as soon as possible if you'll be ready to continue the project review
by the Commission at the January 21, 2014 meeting. In addition, please sign and return
the enclosed form, allowing the Planning Commission to continue the hearings.
Otherwise, I will have no choice but to prepare a resolution of .denial for the February
meeting or ask you to withdraw the application. The Permit Streamlining Act of
California allows cities certain amount of time to take action on an application, unless
the property owner agrees for continuance.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Wishing you a Very 7-Cappy 2doCiday Season!
