I FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2007-004 FINDINGS FOR PROJECTS EXEMPT FROM CEQA: The Planning Department finds that the project will not have any significant effect on the environment and is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to section 15305 of the CEQA Guidelines, because the project consists of a minor lot line adjustment, not resulting in the creation of any new parcel. FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2007-004: 1. The granting of Lot Line Adjustment No. 2007-004, for the consolidation of two 25-foot wide lots into one 50-foot wide lot, will not create any additional parcels or building sites. 2. The merger of subject parcels is required pursuant to Section 257.02 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO) which states that two or more contiguous parcels held by the same owner shall be merged if one of the parcels does not conform to the minimum lot size. 3. The lot line adjustment will not sever any existing structure on the resulting parcel. The existing dwelling on the subject site straddles the common property line of the two existing lots. The proposed lot line adjustment will consolidate the two lots, thereby removing the above-mentioned property line. 4. The lot line adjustment will not allow a greater number of dwelling units than allowed prior to the adjustment. Currently there is one single-family dwelling unit on the property. Based on the lot size and zoning district, the maximum permitted development density is one unit. 5. A plat map showing the lot line adjustment has been prepared and approved and will be filed in accord with the provisions of Section 253.24 of the HBZSO. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL - LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2007-004: 1. The plat map received on July 12, 2007, and maintained in Planning Department case file LLA No. 2007-004 shall be the approved layout. 2. The lot line adjustment form shall be submitted to the Public Works Department for final review and modified as necessary pursuant to the requirements of the Public Works Department prior to recordation.
