Dikeman To permit the waiver of the required rear 6 ft. wall separating R-5, office professional from R-3, high density residential in lieu of 5.9730.25 (b) of the Huntiriton Beach Ordinance Code located on the southeast corner of Edinger Avenue and Waikiki Lane in an R-5, office professional district. IN CONJUNCTION WITH: ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW NO. 73-226 A licant: Arthur M.

I Minutes: H.B. Board Zoning Adjustments Wednesday, February 2(1974 Page 8 Mr. Jack Ikoebig, representing the applicant, and Mr. Steve Dikeman, the applicant for Conditional Exception No. 74-8 were present. The Chairman informed the Board that Conditional Exception No. 74-8 is a categorical exemption, class 5, California Environmental Quality Act, 1970. He further stated that the Environmental Review Board granted Exemption Declaration No. 74-2 February 13, 1974 with the following additional information for Administrative Review No. 73-226. No environmental impact report has been prepared for this project. The Negative Declaration issued for the project was properly posted in the office of the City Clerk. Findings are based upon the initial study information submitted to the Board, as well as the applicant's intent to work with the BZA in resolving problems with the plot plan and the traffic engineer's concurrence on the location of the drive exiting onto Edinger Avenue from the project. The Chairman opened the public hearing on Conditional Ex.-stion No. 74-8. The Chairman informed the Board that a previous Conditional Exception No. 68-14 allowed for the waiver of the wall and that Conditional Exception No. 74-8 was not necessary, and further recommended withdrawal of this application. Mrs. Psaros, presented a petition from neighbors to the Board, and presented her case why a 6 ft. wall should exist to separate the office professional district from the residential district. She felt that due to the buildings directly south of the proposed O'development have children passing through.an alley, going to school, would create a hazard for those children. She further felt that a wall would isolate the business activity and as such, driving and parking would be away from the residential section, thus also alleviating a lot of noise. She further stated that one of the patio's of her apartment building opens directly onto the alley which would also create a hazard. In summary, Mrs. Psaros felt that access to the professional building off of the alley would be dangerous. Mr. Koebig addressed the Board and stated that at the tame the proposed office professional building's plans were made, the apartment house owners were aware of the type of use that would be built. Mr. Koebig presented a letter from Mr. B. G. Williams, Builder, to the Board stating that at, the time of the original subdivision, he installed a 6 ft. wall along Lot 2 at the alley, a,4 that time the apartment house occupants agreed that this would satisfy the requirement for a separating wall that Lot 1 would take access from the alley thus avoiding an additional curb cut adjacent to the school on Waikiki. Minutes : H,B. and of Zoning Adjustment01Wednesday, Feb W ry 20, 1974 Page 9 Trash bins, number of parking spaces , access from alley to parking spaces and fire access off of alley were also discussed. It was the consensus of the Board that due to additional information received from occupants in that immediate area, a meeting betwesen the applicant and staff is warranted to discuss alternatives and also allow time for the applicant to revise his plans. As there were no further parties present to speak in favor or opposition to Conditional Exception No. 74-8, the Chairman closed the public hearing. Board discussion followed.
