CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 77-5 (In Conj./UP 76-81)
Applicant: Ni-Mar Enterprises
To permit a 10-foot encroachment into the required 10 foot rear
yard setback in lieu of Section 9203.3 of the Huntington Beach
Ordinance Code, located at the northwest corner of Green Street
and Warner Avenue in an R3, Medium -High Density Residential
District.
Chairman Spencer informed the Board that this request is a Categ-
orical Exemption, Class V, California Environmental Quality Act,
1970.
The Chairman opened the public hearing. Michael Mueller was present
to represent the application and addressed the Board, citing other
buildings in the area which are at zero setback. He indicated that
the architect has met with the Department of Public Works and ob-
tained concurrence with the access on Warner Avenue. He also noted
that the dedication was made on Warner Avenue about six months ago.
There being no other persons to address the Board in regard to this
project, the public hearing was closed.
Bruce Crosby explained that the Department of Public Works had
determined that there is practically, no frontage on Green Street
available for access and for this reason had decided not to adhere
strictly to the code requirement for no access from the arterial.
The Board reviewed' -the uses and structures on surrounding proper-
ties, the density permitted by code, and possible alternative
duplex development which would fit the.site and comply with code.

ON MOTION BY PALIN AND SECOND BY SPENCER CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION
NO. 77-5 WAS DENIED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS, BY THE FOLLOWING
VOTE:
REASONS FOR DENIAL:
1. The hardship is a self-imposed hardship resulting from the
proponent's desire to have a third unit on this property rather
than a two -unit development similar to those projects which
the Board has recently approved on lots of the same size and
shape to the west of subject site.
2. The granting of a variance would establish a dangerous prece-
dent in the community by:
a. Permitting utilization of an arterial highway for access;
and
b. Allowing the proposed intensity of development within the
close proximity to a major arterial, thereby subjecting
future residents to massive noise levels, particularly
within Unit 3 which is proposed to be constructed over the
garage.
3. The design and layout of the garages could create a safety
hazard by allowing a situation where people may attempt -to back
out into the flow of traffic on Warner Avenue.

FINDINGS OF THE BOARD:
1. The granting of a Conditional Exception will not be materially
detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to property in
the same zone classification.
2. The topographical features of the area impose certain constraints
upon subject property which make granting of the conditional
exception necessary to provide the developer with parity to sur-
rounding properties (the,property is at the lowest grade in the
vicinity, requiring installation of the drainage easement there-
on for the drainage of this and other properties).
3. It has been determined that the applicant has met the intent
of the code for adequate access for maintenance of the pipe
within the drainage and for assuring that no surcharge will re-
sult upon said pipe.

1. The plot plan received and dated January 7, 1977, shall be
the approved layout.

damage to subject property or structures. Said letter shall
be subject to the approval of the City Attorney for form
and content and shall become a part of the permanent file on
subject project.
3. The applicant shall provide proof that there will be no
surcharge on the drainage pipe by submitting engineering
calculations for the footings along the southerly property
line for that portion of the building encroaching into the
easement. Said proof shall be submitted to the Departments
of Public Works and Building and Community Development and
shall be subject to approval by said departments.
4. Applicant shall construct a 36" RCP drain through his
property, to be plugged at both ends. This pipe will be a
part of the City's Master Plan Storm Drain system and will
be within the 10-foot drainage easement dedicated to the
City.

the south property line capable of carrying 25 c.f.s. This

temporary system with open parking areas, decorative planters, and
the trash area indicated for the south side of the property were

USE PERMIT NO. 76-64 (Landscaping Plans)
Applicant: W & D Company
Secretary Palin submitted a proposal from W & D;'requesting relief
from certain requirements on landscaping imposed upon the -subject
shopping center at the time of approval. He noted that the staff had
met with the developers and agreed that if applicants could provide
proof that there is sufficient landscaping existing within the Signal -
Landmark tract adjacent to the center to meet the intent of the
original condition (which was to provide buffering between the two
projects for noise and visual intrusion), the Board might reconsider
the requirement through reapproval of a revised plan. It was the
determination of the Board that the hedge as shown on the property
line does not reflect the information conveyed by staff to the pro-
ponent, and that photographs showing existing landscaping should be
submitted for evaluation as well as the originally requested section
through the landscaping showing relationship of landscaping to
elevations of the structures. Upon receipt of said information, the
Board will review and make a determination on whether to consider a
revised landscaping plan.
THERE BEING NO FURTHER BUSINESS, THE MEETING WAS ADJOURNED.
