A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ROLLING HILLS APPROVING A REQUEST FOR SITE PLAN REVIEW
FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A STABLE AND CORRAL WHICH
REQUIRE GRADING IN ZONING CASE NO. 650, AT 6 POSSUM RIDGE
ROAD, ROLLING HILLS, (LOT 117-RH). (LANGER)
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. Major Langer with respect to
real property located at 6 Possum Ridge Road (Lot 117-RH), Rolling Hills requesting a
Site Plan Review to permit the construction of a 1,680 square foot stable with a loft that
requires grading at the east side of the property.
Section 2. Pcc.surn Ridge Road traverses the Subject property and divides, it
into two parts. The westerly portion of the lot is developed with a 7,540 square foot
residence, 854 square foot garage and a 640 square foot pool. The proposed stable will
be located on the easterly portion of the lot, which is currently vacant.
Section 3. Also proposed is a new 10-foot wide driveway to the stable, with
varied slope of 5% to 19%. The driveway will be unpaved. The Traffic Commission
reviewed the proposed driveway approach and recommended approval.
Section 4. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing
to consider the applications on May 21, 2002 and at a field trip visit on May 28, 2002.
Section 5. The Planning Commission finds that the project qualifies as a Class
3 Exemption [State CA Guidelines, Section 15303 (e)] and is therefore categorically
exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act.
Section 6. Section 17.46.020 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code requires a
development plan to be submitted for site plan review and approval before any grading
requiring a grading permit and 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 byat
least 1,000 square feet and has the effect of increasing the size of the building or
structure by more than twenty-five percent (25%) in any thirty-six month period. The
applicant requests Site Plan Review for the construction of a stable and corral that
requires grading at the east side of the property. With respect to the Site Plan Review
application, the Planning Commission makes the following findings of fact:
A. The proposed development of a stable and corral 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 develop.ment:with sufficient open space between surrounding structures and
equestrian uses. The, rojec't conforms to Zoning Code setback and lot coverage
requirements. The gross lot area of subject property is 5.0 acres. The net lot area, as
RESOLUTION NO. 2002-08 . :,, •�:..:
PAGE 1 OF 6
•
fp 2688489
calculated by the city for development purposes, is 182,200 square feet, (4.18 acres). The
portion of the lot located east of Possum Ridge Road, where the stable is proposed, is
approximately 95,185 square feet or 2.2 acres, (excluding the road).
The proposed project is on a relatively large lot with the proposed structure
located below and away , from the road so as to reduce the visual impact of the
development. Structural coverage of the 24,081 square foot existing residential building
pad is 9,130 square feet or 37.9%. The 10,256 square foot building pad proposed .for the
new stable and corral will have coverage of 1,680 square feet or 16.4%. The total
building pad coverage on the residential and stable pads will be 31.5%.
The structural lot coverage proposed is 10,810 square feet or 5.9% of the net lot
area, which includes 7,540 sq.ft. house, 854 sq.ft. garage, 640 sq.ft. pool, 96 sq.ft. service
yard and 1,680 sq.ft. proposed stable, '(20% permitted). The total net lot coverage
proposed, including structures and paved areas is 17,610 square feet or 9.6%, (35%
permitted).
The disturbed area of the 182,200 square feet net lot will be 58,850 square feet or
32.3% (40% maximum permitted; any graded building pad area, any remedial grading
(temporary disturbance), any graded slopes and building pad areas, and any non -
graded area where impervious surfaces exist).
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. Although several of the non-native plants and
shrubs will be removed to accommodate the proposed construction, additional
landscaping will be required to minimize the impact of the proposed grading on the
property.
C. The subject site descends in a northwesterly direction. The proposed
stable will be set into the hillside and will be located approximately 230 feet from the
rear property line, 52 feet from the south side property line and 90 feet from the
roadway. The corral will be adjacent to the stable.
D. The development plan incorporates existing ,large trees and native
vegetation to the maximum extent feasible. Specifically, the development plan
preserves several mature trees and shrubs.
E. 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 structural and total lot coverage to be exceeded. Significant
portions of the lot will be left undeveloped so as to maintain the canyon vista across the
northwesterly portion of the property.
F. The proposed development, as conditioned, is harmonious in scale and
mass with the site, the natural terrain and surrounding residences. As indicated in
Paragraph A, the lot coverage maximum will not be exceeded and the proposed project
is consistent with the scale of the neighborhood.
RESOLUTION NO. 2002-08
PAGE 2 OF 6
G. The proposed development is sensitive and not detrimental to the
convenience and safety of circulation for pedestrians and vehicles because the proposed
project will not generate additional traffic on Possum Ridge Road.
H. The project conforms with the requirements of the California
Environmental Quality Act and is categorically exempt from environmental review.
Section 7. Based upon the foregoing findings, the Planning Commission
hereby approves the Site Plan Review application for the development of a stable that
requires grading, subject to the following conditions:
A. The Site Plan Review approval shall expire within one year from the
effective date of approval; unless work commences within that time period, as defined
