Permit No. 74-13 and Conditional Exception No. 74-20 on April 16,

the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code
Mr. Everett Dodge was present to discuss the proposal of landscaping
in lieu of a block wall.
It was the impression of Mr. Dodge that he was conforming to
Ordinance Code requirements with the proposed landscaping in
lieu of a block wall.. Mr. Daryl Smith, of.the Department of
Public Works submitted a'communication to the Board stating
his view that a wall should be constructed in lieu'of land-
scaping. Mr. Dodge felt that a much better job could be done
with landscaping. 'Mr. Spencer felt that an elevation drawing
reflecting the wall should be submitted to the Board. -Mr.-Dodge
f eit'that the requirements of a block wall could have been
mentioned at the time of the original discussion of the plot
plan and thereby could have been easily modified at that time.
The Chairman indicated his concern. for having a 32" wall as the
width_of landscaping was only 3-feet.
It was the consensus,of the Board to defer action on the variation
of block wall requirement proposal until the submittal of a rendering
from Mr. Dodge.
