Jarrard To permit a one-year extension of time for the construction of an 11,400 square foot office building in an R-5 zone located on the north side of Kartron Street (7901 Kartron). The subject request is covered by previously approved Negative Dec- laration No. 81-44. Pat Spencer explained that the applicant is basing his request for extension upon financial hardship caused by present monetary and mar- ket conditions. The Board discussed this basis for hardship as well as the location of the project, the parking layout, access, and circu- lation within the facility. Les Evans indicated his feeling that the parking areas should be joined together and not separated as shown on the approved plan, and Mr. Spencer pointed out that the prior lay- out had been under the constraints of an existing building and reciprocal drive.- After further review, the Board concluded that the applicant had demonstrated that a practical difficulty exists suffi- cient to justify granting the requested extension of time.

Board of Zoning Adjustments September 8, 1982 Page 3 during construction of Phase III which consists of a 4,032 square foot building for auto repair and related use. Subject request is a Categorical Exemption, Class 3, California Environmental Quality Act. Pat Spencer informed the Board that the proposed project had been approved by the Board in June of this year under Administra- tive Review No. 82-26. However, a condition of approval imposed at that time requiring full installation of improvements prior to obtaining permits has made it almost impossible for the pro- ject to proceed, and the applicant is now requesting to be allowed to develop in phases. It is his intention to erect a temporary spray booth in Phase I, to be used while the Phase II development, containing the permanent spray booth, is under construction. The temporary booth will comply with all Fire Code requirements and will be terminated upon completion of the permanent building. This will satisfy the lender and allow the project to get under way. Mr. Spencer distributed suggested con- ditions of approval to the Board, noting that the applicant agrees with these conditions. The Board reviewed and discussed the suggested conditions, as well as its prior action on A.R. 82-26.
