none, Fire damage repair, Correspondence•City 0 Rolling „AIL May 25.2010 Mr. Alan Adler 22 Cinchring Road Rolling Hills, CA 90274 • INCORPORATED JANUARY 24, 1957 NO. 2 PORTUGUESE BEND ROAD ROLLING HILLS, CALIF. 90274 (310) 377-1521 FAX: (310) 377-7288 Reconstruction of stable: Dear Mr. Adler: I understand that you are planning to rebuilt your stable that was lost in the August fire. This letter is to inform you of the process for reconstruction of accessory structures damaged by fire or other natural disaster. Pursuant to the Municipal Code Section 17.24.050(B), if your stable structure was non -conforming with the current regulations, for example, if it was located in setback(s) or less than 35 feet to the residence, you may reconstruct the stable in its pre -fire size and location within two years of the damage, nroviding that such destruction does not exceed 50% of the assessed value of the structure. Construction that would involve additional square footage or different location or if the damage is greater than 50% of the assessed value of the structure would require that you meet whatever regulations exist at the time of the proposed construction. That could include a Conditional Use Permit approval, if the proposed regulations for stables that were discussed at the May 24, City Council meeting, are adopted and become effective prior to your start of construction. You would also be required to have the structure approved by the RHCA and obtain building permits. Please see enclosed Municipal Code Section 17.24.050. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call me at 310.377.1521. Si e ely, JLL Yo nta Schwartz P1. ning Director Printed on Recycled Paper 1 • 24.050--17.24.060 17.24.050 Reconstruction.

An addition not to exceed twenty-five percent, or less than one thousand square feet of the original size of the house, whichever is greater, may be allowed, provided the added area complies with the provisions of this title. All such construction or re- pairs shall commence within two years from date of damage and shall be diligently pursued to completion. Otherwise, the legal nonconforming status shall be lost. B. All Other Structures. Any nonconforming struc- ture, except -as defined in subsection A of this section, destroyed by fire, explosion, earthquake or other casualty or act of God or the public enemy may be restored, and the occupancy and use of that structure resumed, provided the structure existed as a legally established structure and provided such destruction does not exceed fifty percent of the assessed value of the structure. The records of the Los Angeles County Assessor for the fiscal year in which the destruction occurred shall be used in determining the assessed value, and said value shall include only property improvements. All such construction or repairs shall com- mence within two years from date of damage and shall be diligently pursued to completion. Otherwise, the legal nonconforming status shall be lost. C. Site plan review, or other discretionary permit, shall not be required for reconstruction as set forth in subsections A and B of this section. (Ord. 295 §7 (Exh.

With issuance of the permit and your commitment and cooperation, we look forward to accomplishing the recycling and diversion goals that the permit is intended to achieve. As noted in the permit application, please be mindful that within thirty (30) calendar days following the completion of each construction project for which your permit is issued, you are required to submit documentation to the City of Rolling Hills demonstrating that at least 50% of the construction and demolition waste generated from the project is not disposed at a landfill. Satisfactory documentation of compliance is necessary for final inspection of the construction project and, if applicable, the issuance of a certificate of occupancy. In other words, your failure to comply with the recycling/diversion requirement will cause the City to withhold from your clients final approval of the construction project you are servicing. Enclosed you will find a "Recycling and Waste Reduction Compliance Report" for you to document the disposal of your construction and demolition waste. The form must be supported and accompanied by originals or photocopies of receipts, weight tickets, invoices or other records of measurement from recycling companies, the landfill and/or disposal companies. It is strongly recommended that you submit this form as frequently as you dispose of construction and demolition waste rather than wait until the end of a project. This will avoid complications with final inspection of the project and with you and your client. Additional forms can be obtained at City Hall or on the City's website at www.Rolling-Hills.org. Please be aware that your permit will expire on April 14, 2011 at which time a new permit will be required. If the conditions of the permit are not followed, the permit will not be renewed or could be revoked mid -year. Recycling is important not just for extending the usefulness of landfills; it is valuable for sustaining the environment. Again, thank you. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call City Hall at 310-377-1521.
