ON MOTION BY GEIGER AND SECOND BY PORTER CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 74-60 APPEAL WAS APPROVED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS AND WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITION BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: 1. Granting this conditional exception will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with other properties in the vicinity and under the same identical zone classification in that the shape and size of other properties involved would allow the type of construction proposed without a conditional exception. 2. Special circumstances are applicable to the subject property in that it is at the end of a cul-de-sac and of an unusual shape unlike the majority of other properties in the surrounding area and strict application of the zoning ordinance would deprive the subject property of the same privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity. 3. Granting of this conditional exception is necessary to allow this property to develop in the same manner as the majority of surrounding properties and to preserve the right of the occupants to a dwelling of sufficient size to accommodate family needs. 4. Granting of this conditional exception will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to property in this same zone classification in that it involves only a minor intrusion on required open space. 5. Granting of this conditional exception will not have any effect on the master plan of the City of Huntington Beach.
