REGULAR AGENDA ITEMS:
ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW NO. 77-101 (Cont. from 6/15/77)
Applicant: Eugene B. Zwick
To permit construction of a 9,000 square foot industrial building
pursuant to Section 9511 of the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code,
located on the northwest corner of Argosy Drive and Graham Street
in a 100-M1-A-20,000, Restricted Manufacturing District.
This request is covered by Environmental Impact Report No. 73-16,
adopted by the City Council on March 18, 1974.
Mr. Zwick, the applicant, & Mr. Penkoff, adjoining property owner,
were present at the meeting.
Secretary Palin outlined the proposal to Board members. Mr. Palin
stated that this application was filed in conjunction with a tentative
parcel map. He further stated that the Board's decision of approval
of the tentative parcel map had been appealed, however, the appeal
was incorrectly directed to the Planning Commission, thereby delaying
the hearing of the tentative parcel map by the City Council. Mr.
Palin further stated that he had received notification on this date
that the appeal had been cancelled by the appellant.
Board discussed proposed plans with the applicant. It was the
Board's desire to view photographs of the proponent's current
operation depicting the place of the actual assembly and manufacture
of his products.
Various curb cut alternatives were discussed as well as proper
circulation and open space for the proposal. It was suggested to
the applicant that he alter the building to meet City setback
requirements, thereby allowing him greater flexibility for
parking purposes.
It was the consensus of the Board to continue this application for
one week to allow the applicant time to present photographs of his
current operation and to alleviate existing circulation problems.
