The owner, recently remarried, is in need of two more bedrooms and baths for his two daughters. While the actual increase in lot coverage is only 3.24%, tne cumulative lot coverage,- aue to earlier, more generous area calculations, now will be 26.080 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 property is bounded by .three public easements: Creast Road, Southfield Drive, and Flying Mane Road. Thus the buildable area, due to the easements and setbacks is reduced to a little more than 1/2 of the gros lot area (per Denn Engineering the gros Is 1.0076 acres or 4b,bbb sq.rt. The net area is U.4bbil acres or zufi1L sq.It.') In addition, the existing residence and acessory buildingsare located on 2 pads part of which are not considered to be buildable area. Therefore the pad coverage indicates a cistort 1i vip 9r>,�,,p�„a� relation to tne net area and existing pads. ,< """ • • 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 project is compatible with the residences in the neighborhood and does not impact the privacy, view, and opneness of the properties enjoyed by the neighbors.

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). VII. 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. VIII. "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significant. If there are one or more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made, an EIR is required. IX. "Potentially Significant Unless 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 V, "Earlier Analysis," above may be cross-referenced). X. 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 Section 15063(c)(3)(D) of the State CEQA Guidelines. Earlier analyses are discussed in Section V, above. XI. 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. A source list should be attached, and other sources used or individuals contacted should be cited in the discussion. Issues (and Supporting Information Sources): Potentially Significant Potentially .
