CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 76-1 (Cont. from 2-4-76)
Applicant: Roger DeYoung
To permit a front yard setback of ten (10) feet in lieu of the
required twenty (20) feet and a reduction in the required recrea-
tion and leisure area by approximately sixteen percent (16%).
These requests are in lieu of Sections 9320.6 and 9320.14, re-
spectively, of the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code.
The Chairman informed the Board that this request is a Categorical
Exemption, Class V, California Environmental Quality Act, 1970.
Mr. DeYoung was present at the meeting.
The Chairman opened the public hearing. There being no one present
to comment further, on the project,'the public hearing was closed.
The Board reviewed the alterations in the plan resulting from the
setback of ten instead of the original fifteen feet on the front
property line. Walter Lipps expressed reservations concerning
the granting.of the reduced open space and the 10 foot setback.
ON MOTION BY PALIN AND SECOND BY CROSBY, CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO.
76-1 WAS APPROVED WITH THE FOLLOWING'FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS, BY
THE FOLLOWING VOTE:
FINDINGS OF THE BOARD:
1. The ratio of the width to the depth of the subject property
creates an extreme hardship in location of the units.
2. When the apartment standards'were drafted, the size and con-
figuration of lots of this nature were not taken into
consideration.
3. An abundance of private open space is provided through the use
of ground floor patios and/or decks for each unit to offset
the sixteen percent reduction of common -open space.

4. The proponent has modified his plan according to the desires
of some of the residents in the adjacent area by providing
the ten foot front yard setback and deleting one unit from
the proposed project. These modifications have served to bring
the plan into greater conformity with the provisions of the
ordinance code.
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:
A. TO BE COMPLETED PRIOR TO ISSUANCE OF BUILDING PERMITS:
1. The conceptual plot plan received February 9, 1976, shall
be the approved layout, subject to the modifications de-
scribed herein:
a. The plan shall be revised to reflect a modified turn-
around at the easterly end of the driveway to conform
to an over-all width of thirty-six feet (36') and an
east -west leg of twenty feet (201).
b. The revised plan shall comply with a minimum of ten
feet (10') of landscaped area between the parking and
the front property line.

Walt Lipps submitted the following reasons for his "no" vote:
1. The granting of this conditional exception would establish an
undesirable precedent.

ard setbacks and percentage of open space required by ordinance
codes.
ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW NO. 76-15 (Cont. from 2-11-76)
Applicant: Gary G. Whitaker
To permit the establishment of an auto sales lot pursuant to Section
9430.2 of the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code, located at the south-
west corner of Beach Boulevard and Clay Street in a C2, Community
Business District.
The Chairman informed the Board that this request is a Categorical
Exemption, Class III, California Environmental Quality Act, 1970.
Gary Whitaker and Mr. and Mrs. Marvin McElroy (property owners) were
present at the meeting.
Walt Lipps reported that his research of the files has not cleared
up the question of prior approval on the subject building, which is
non -conforming because of yard setbacks. It was his conclusion
that, at the time the mobile home sales operation formerly .at this
site was approved, any use prior to that had not been abated and
the approval for the mobile home sales was predicated on a non-
conforming building with a still -effective use. Since the use has
now been abated, the location of the building cannot be approved.
The Board discussed procedural alternatives with the applicants
and explained the code requirements for setbacks on Beach Boulevard.
Included in the alternatives were application for a conditional
exception, appeal to the Planning Commission of a Board condition
for moving the building, or a temporary certificate of occupancy
subject to bonding for moving the building. Also considered was
the possibility of a temporary office structure (such as a trailer)
with a limited period of occupancy until the building is either re-
located or modified to comply with the proper setback.
The Board reviewed conditions which would allow encroachment into
the required fifty foot (50') setback, considering sight angle and
necessary landscaping and pedestrian walkways. It was the consen-
sus that the rear portion of the existing building could be used
temporarily, with bonding to guarantee that the building would be
brought into total conformance with ordinance code requirements
.within a snecifiPd period of time.

CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 76-4
Applicant: William D. Vaughn
To permit the construction of a twelve (12) foot high fence along
the property line which is 6 feet over the 6 foot permitted height,
in lieu of Section 9204 of the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code,
located on the east side of Florida Street, approximately 450
feet north of Garfield Avenue in an R3, Medium High Density Resi-
dential District.

Exemption, Class V, California Environmental Quality Act, 1970.
William Vaughn and Claude Clemens were present at the meeting.

the public hearing was closed.
BZA 2-18-76 Page 9
Minutes, H.B. Board of Zoning Adjustments

Page 10
The Board reviewed the request, considering the distance of the ball
courts from the side property lines, the materials of the fencing,
and the effect such a fence would have on adjoining residential units
to the north. It was determined that moving the fence in to the
setback lines would be a problem because of the necessity of maintain-
ing a portion of the open space for the purpose of oil well operations
on the property.
The applicant was informed that the Planning Commission has been
discussing revision to the code to allow height variations in fencing
around recreational areas and was advised to postpone his request
until some parameters have been established. In the meantime, it was
the consensus of the Board that the Building Department could issue
a permit for the twelve -foot fence along the easterly property line.

The Chairman informed the Board that this request is a Categorical

Mr. O'Laughlin was present at the meeting.
The Board reviewed the request. Walt Lipps noted that there should

is within a proposed redevelopment area and the building might have
to be demolished in the future. The onsite parking was discussed,
as well as offsite parking applicant proposes to provide on an ad-
jacent property. Walt Lipps questioned the legality of providing

cant, and requested that a legal opinion be obtained from the

ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW NO. 76-17
Applicant: William J. Scott
To permit the construction of a 1700 square foot industrial storage
building pursuant to Section 9530 of the Huntington Beach Ordinance
Code, located on the east side of Crystal Street approximately 355
feet south of Garfield Avenue in an Ml, Light Industrial District.
The Chairman informed the Board that this request is a Categorical
Exemption, Class III, California Environmental Quality Act, 1970.
William J. Scott was present at the meeting.
The Board reviewed and discussed the application. The subject
property consists of Lots 15 and 16, split off from a previous stor-
age yard approved for Lots 14, 15, and 16. Among the problems
considered were the questions of whether the project could be con-
sidered non -conforming because of inadequate front yard setback under
the new M-1 provisions; whether or not the use constitutes estab-
lishment of a new use or can be considered a continuation of the
already established use; the parking provisions; and the possible
need for additional landscaping on the site. Walt Lipps expressed
the opinion that insufficient information is available in this appli-
cation to permit the Board to make a determination at this time.
Also considered was the suitability of the administrative review
application for a project of this nature.
