Board of Zoning Adjustments Wednesday, May 22, 1974 Page 3 1. The Board recommends that the warehouse portion of the facility be constructed at the required front setback; for continuity in design, however, con- struction of the office portion of the facility at a reduced front yard setback will not have a demon- strable negative aesthetic effect, as the applicant has proposed similar landscape treatment for such office facility as is presently existing. 2. If complaints are received on the noise caused by the compressor, the applicant should pursue con- struction of a 6 ft. high masonry wall along the side property line between the compressor and the street right-of-way to partially attenuate the noise impact. Board discussed recommendations of Environmental Review Board and adopted recommendation number 2 as a condition of approval. ON MOTION BY SPENCER AND SECOND BY CROSBY THE BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENTS ADOPTED EXEMPTION DECLARATION NO. 74-55 BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: AYES: Spencer, Crosby NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: Eadie Mr. Hammond outlined his proposal to the Board. He stated that the proposal is for an addition to an existing building. Mr. Eadie outlined previous administrative actions on the subject property to the Board. Mr. Hammond outlined his justification for the Conditional Exception as due to setback changes which came into effect after the initial development. He further stated that the new setback requirement has put his project "out of continuity". Visually, there is nothing gained by pushing back parts of the building to conform to the 10 ft. setback requirement and he feels that this situation imposes a hardship. The Chairman stated that after conferring with Advance Planning staff, the proposal is in conformance with the Master Plan as outlined in the Land Use Element, Phase I, at this point in time. Board discussed Use Permit with applicant. Trash enclosure and screening was discussed and the Chairman advised the applicant that approval of the conceptual plan submitted did not waive any ordinance code requirements. -3- 5/22/74 - BZA Minutes: H.B. Board of Zoning Adjustments Wednesday, May 22, 1974 Page 4 Board discussed Administrative Review No. 74-50 with applicant. The location of the proposed trailers was discussed. Mr. Hammond stated that the trailers would be used for temporary office space. As there were no parties present to speak in favor of or opposition to Conditional Exception No. 74-27 and Use Permit No. 74-18, the Chairman closed the public hearing. Board discussion followed. The Chairman outlined the Policy Plan for the City of Huntington Beach to the applicant's representative. Conditions of approval were discussed. ON MOTION BY SPENCER AND SECOND BY CROSBY CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 74-27 WAS APPROVED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: 1. In that the existing building setback is six (6) feet, a setback of ten (10) feet for the proposed expansion would take away the continuity and aesthetic values that are being incorporated into the project. 2. The granting of this Conditional Exception would not be in- consistent with the currently adopted policy plan to encourage expansion of existing industrial properties. 3. The granting of this Conditional Exception would not constitute a grant of special privilege of the immediate vicinity. 4. The granting of this Conditional Exception will not adversely affect the Master Plan of the City of Huntington Beach.
