RESIDENTIAL UNIT INTO 2 SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL
LOTS FRONTING THE NORTH SIDE OF CREST ROAD EAST AND
THE WEST SIDE OF CABALLEROS ROAD IN ZONING CASE NO.
485.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROLLING HILLS DOES HEREBY FIND,
RESOLVE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. An application was duly filed by Mr. and Mrs. Cosimo Occhipinti with respect
to real property at Lot 57 -C -MS, and currently, 34 Crest Road East, Rolling Hills, requesting a two
(2) lot subdivision of land on an existing lot that has one residential unit.
Section 2. The application applies to Lot 57 -C -MS which consists of 5.36 acres gross. This
lot is proposed to be divided into two parcels as follows: Parcel 1 - 2.82 acres gross, 2.08 acres
net; and Parcel 2 - 2.54 acres gross, 2.02 acres net. Lot 57 -C -MS is within the RAS -2 zone district
(2 -acre minimum zone), and referred to as Assessor's Parcel No. 7567-16-15. The General Plan
Land Use designation for this property is Very Low Density Residential 2+ Net Acres per Dwelling
Unit.
Section 3. The subject site is presently occupied by one residential structure at the southern
portion of the property, surrounded by landscaping. The existing residential structure would be
located on Parcel 1. The remainder of the lot is presently vacant with grass and natural vegetation
in a semi -disturbed state. The site is surrounded by other single family dwellings on 1 and 2+ acre
size lots. The zone designation for the subject site is RAS -2 and the zone designation on adjacent
properties is RAS -1 and RAS -2.
Section 4. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider
the application for a 2 -lot subdivision of land on September 21, 1993, October 26, 1993, and
November 16, 1993, and at a field trip visit on October 23, 1993. Evidence was heard and
presented from all persons interested in affecting said proposal, from all persons protesting the
same, and from members of the City staff and the Planning Commission having reviewed, analyzed
and studied said proposal.
Section 5. According to Section 16.12.110 of Title 16, Subdivisions, of the Rolling Hills
Municipal Code, the Planning Commission is the advisory agency for review of a tentative parcel
map and the Commission is to make its recommendations to the City Council upon completing
evaluation of all environmental proceedings pursuant to the local guidelines implementing the
Environmental Quality Act.
Section 6. The Planning Commission approved Resolution No. 93-35 recommending
approval to the City Council of Tentative Parcel Map No. 23594, Subdivision No. 87 in Zoning
Case No. 485 on December 21, 1993.
Section 7. The City Council considered the application on January 10, 1994 at a duly
noticed public hearing.
Section 8. Evidence was heard from all persons interested in affecting said proposal, and
from members of the City staff and the City Council having reviewed, analyzed and studied said
proposal regarding the two (2) lot subdivision of land on an existing lot that has one residential
unit. The evidence was taken into account by the City Council related to granting approval of
Tentative Parcel Map No. 23594, Subdivision No. 87 in Zoning Case No. 485.
Section 9. On August 26, 1993, Planning staff prepared an initial study for the project. The
initial study found that the project would not have a significant effect on the environment if certain
measures were included in the project. The Negative Declaration was prepared with those
mitigation measures and was circulated to the applicant and other interested parties in accordance
with State of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. The public notice of the
Planning Commission's intent to recommend approval of the Negative Declaration was published
on August 28, 1993. Copies of the Negative Declaration were sent to adjacent cities and other
government agencies.
Section 10. The City Council has reviewed the proposed Negative Declaration and finds
that it represents the independent judgment of the City ana that it was prepared in compliance with
CEQA. The City Council finds that although the proposed project could have a significant effect
on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because mitigation measures
have been added to the project, and are incorporated herein by reference. Therefore, the City
Council adopts the mitigated Negative Declaration prepared for this project.
Section 11. Pursuant to Section 16.12.150 of the Rolling Hills Municipal Code a tentative
map shall be rejected under certain conditions. Based upon substantial evidence presented to the
City Council of the City of Rolling Hills during the public hearing referenced in Section 7, including
public testimony, and written and oral staff reports, the City Council finds as follows:
;r
A. The proposed subdivision map and the design and improvement of the proposed
subdivision is consistent with the applicable General Plan, including but not limited
to, the following goals and policies of the General Plan:
1. Maintain Rolling Hills' distinctive rural residential character. (Land Use
Element, p. 15.)
2. Accommodate development which is compatible with and complements
existing land uses. (Land Use Element, p. 15.)
3. Accommodate development that is sensitive to the natural environment and
accounts for environmental hazards. (Land Use Element, p. 16.)
4. Provide for housing which meets the needs of existing and future Rolling Hills
residents. (Housing Element, p. 44)
5. Maintain and enhance the quality of residential neighborhoods in Rolling
Hills. (Housing Element, p. 44)
6. Promote housing opportunities for all persons regardless of race, religion, sex,
marital status, ancestry, national origin or color. (Housing Element, p. 45.)
7. Conserve and enhance the City's natural resources, facilitating development
in a manner which reflects the characteristics, sensitivities and constraints of
these resources. (Open Space and Conservation Element, p. 15.)
B. The site is physically suitable for the proposed ,:tensity and type of development. The
proposed use, density, and proposed subdivision improvements are permitted in the
RAS -2 zone. Parcel 1 is 2.08 acres net and Parcel 2 is 2.54 acres net which both
exceed the minimum 2 -acre lot size of the RAS -2 zone.
C. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvement is not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage; or substantially and avoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat. The design of the subdivision and the proposed
improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or
substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat, because the
property is within an area of the City, designated for development. The initial study
prepared for the project did not identify the site as containing unique or sensitive
environmental qualities and no threatened, rare or endangered plant or animal
species were identified during review of the project.
D. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious
public health problems. The design of the subdivision and the proposed
improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems because
conditions of approval have been applied to the project to require compliance with
applicable codes and ordinances designed to protect public health and safety.
E. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements will not conflict with
easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property
within the proposed subdivision. This is because existing roadway easements will be
maintained or expanded by this project and adequate access will be provided to these
parcels and adjacent parcels. In addition, the parcels will contain perimeter
Resolution No. 726 -2-
easements providing access for roads, trails, and public utilities. As a condition of
approval, these easements will be recorded in deeds prior to approval of the final
map.
F. The proposed subdivision will not adversely affect the housing needs of the region.
G. The proposed use will be in substantial compliance with the provisions of the
Residential Development Standards in the Rolling Hills Zoning Ordinance.
H. The proposed use will be compatible with other existing residential development in
the immediate area.
I. The tentative map design provides for future passive or natural heating or cooling
opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible because the project is designed
with lots of adequate dimensions to maximize the opportunities for passive and
natural heating and cooling.
J. The tentative map does not propose to divide land which is subject to a contract
entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965, because the
property in question has not been included in any such contract.
K. Pursuant to Section 66474.6 of the Subdivision Map Act, the discharge of waste from
the proposed subdivision into proposed septic systems will not result in violation of
existing requirements prescribed by the California Regional Water Quality Control
Board, because the applicant is required to comply with all Conditions of Approval
regarding waste disposal contained in Section 10 of this Resolution.
L. Pursuant to the Rolling Hills Municipal Code Section 16.12.155, this Tentative Parcel
Map is consistent with and does not impact the County of Los Angeles Hazardous
Waste Management Plan.
Section 12. Based upon the foregoing findings, the City Council approves Tentative Parcel
Map No. 23594, Subdivision No. 87 ,in Zoning Case No. 485, a request for a two (2) lot subdivision
