ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW NO. 85-26 (Cont. from June 12, 1985)
Applicant: William Leland
A request to permit conversion of single family residence to
commercial use. Subject property is located at 619 Main Street
(West side of Main Street between Acacia Avenue and Palm Avenue.
Minutes, H. B. Board of Zoning Adjustments
July 24, 1985
Page 2
This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 1,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1970.
Scott Hess reported this project is located at 619 Main Street and
zoned C3 - General Commercial. On that particular block, there are
two other commercial operations. The applicant had asked for a
continuance so he could revise his plans. He shows a two -car garage
in the back and is converting several of the rooms in the residence
to office space. Staff would recommend approval with conditions.
Daryl Smith asked about the Building Code requirements in converting
a residential building to commercial use. Staff said the applicant
would have to bring the building up to standards, provide
handicapped parking, and provide secured windows if within five feet
W ) of the side property lines.
Ross Cranmer stated the applicant would have to fill in the doors
and windows on the side and will probably have to install air
conditioning as a result.
One concern of Daryl Smith's was about customers going through the
alley for entrance to the parking area. It was his feeling that
they would not do so and would be parking on the residential street
instead. This will create a situation where other residents will be
constantly complaining.
Glen Godfrey asked if there had been any communication from
Redevelopment on this project, and Scott Hess said they had approved
the development since it was located toward the North end of the
alley.
Upon questioning by Daryl Smith as to whether the applicant was
required to enter into a parking arrangement with the Redevelopment
Agency, Mr. Hess said the applicant meets the requirements for a
C3 Zone.
The applicant, Bill Leland, was present but asked his contractor,
Bob Jarrard, to speak. Mr. Jarrard said they had resubmitted the
plans after the first hearing, and he stated they are complying with
the Uniform Building Code. He added the 32 Square Foot reduction in
size would create a hardship and make the project impractical. Ross
Cranmer reiterated the fact that all openings on the sides would
have to be closed.
Daryl Smith said he did not feel this project would lend itself
favorably to the development plan for the downtown area and these
types of projects would ultimately be more costly to the
Redevelopment Agency, the City, and the taxpayers in general.

Glen Godfrey said this property is located in a C3 Zone, that the
applicant is meeting the design requirements of the Code, and that
he did not see how the Board could deny the project.
Staff reported only one anonymous telephone call had been received
objecting to the conversion because it would be creating a parking
problem in the neighborhood.
Les Evans said he would move for denial with the findings that the
intention of the City is not to permit commercial uses on
twenty-five foot (251) lots but rather to consolidate lots. Also
that there will be inadequate parking for such an operation.
EVANS MOVED, SECONDED BY SMITH, FOR DENIAL OF ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW
NO. 85-26, WITH FINDINGS.
AYES: Evans, Smith
NOES: Cranmer, Godfrey, Vincent
ABSENT: None
MOTION FAILED TO CARRY.
Jim Vincent said the applicant had purchased the property
specifically to convert it to such use and is meeting the City
Codes. Mr. Vincent further said he did not see how the Board could
deny it.

CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 85-36 (Cont. from July 17, 1985)
Applicant: James K. Reed
A request to permit two foot (21) encroachment into side yard
setback at 17891 Caledonia Circle (Southwest corner of Caledonia
Circle and Balmoral Drive).
This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 5,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1970.
Staff reported this application was continued from the last meeting
for the applicant to revise his plans. He has increased the size of
the building by 50 Square Feet and would only have a nine foot (91)
side yard setback. He is providing access off the Kitchen with an
interior stairway. This stairway would necessitate the one foot
(11) encroachment. However, due to the size of the lot, there is no
land -related hardship and Staff would recommend denial based on the
findings.

Minutes, H. B. Board of Zoning Adjustments

Daryl Smith stated that, with these revisions, it would be difficult
to convert to a duplex. The original setback was for two feet (21)
and he now is only asking for one foot (11). Mr. Smith further
added he did not understand Staff's position for denial since the
Board had previously approved encroachments for as much as five feet
(51) into setbacks.
The Public Hearing was opened by Chairman Smith and the applicant,
James K. Reed, was present. Mr. Reed told the Board he had tried to
conform with their requests by integrating the addition more into
the interior of the residence and he had lessened the encroachment.
He added he is upgrading the home and the area, he needs the
additional space, and he does not want to build something that is
not usable.
The contractor, Rick Walters, said they had gone two feet (21)
closer to the pool which they did not want to do because of Mr.
Reed's elderly parents.
Upon questioning by Daryl Smith, Scott Hess said the size of the
property was sixty-five feet wide by ninety feet deep (65" x 911).
SMITH MOVED, SECONDED BY VINCENT, FOR APPROVAL BASED ON FINDING THAT
THE SIZE OF THE LOT CREATED A LAND -RELATED HARDSHIP.
AYES: Smith, Vincent
NOES: Cranmer, Evans, Godfrey
ABSENT: None
MOTION FAILED TO CARRY.
UPON MOTION BY EVANS AND SECOND BY CRANMER, CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION
NO. 85-36 WAS DENIED FOR THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS, BY THE FOLLOWING
VOTE:
FINDINGS FOR DENIAL:
1. Because of the size, configuration, shape and lack of unique
topographic features of the subject property, there does not
appear to be exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or
conditions applicable to the land, buildings or premises
involved that does not apply generally to property or class of
uses in the same district.
2. Since the subject property can be fully developed within
regular established setbacks by providing a ten foot (10') side
yard setback, such a conditional exception is not necessary for
the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights.

6. Granting of Conditional -Exception No. 85-36 would constitute a
special privilege inconsistent with limitations upon properties
in the vicinity.
8. Exceptional'circumstances do not apply that deprive the subject
property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the same
zone classifications.
AYES: Cranmer, Evans, Godfrey
NOES: Smith, Vincent
ABSENT:. None
CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 85-41
Applicant: George E. McCall
A request for a variance to permit the conversion of an existing 220
Square Foot shed into a mini -gym built on the side property line (0'
setback) and build a 410 Square Foot addition for additional gym
area, weight room, and shower facilities with a two foot (21) rear
yard setback in lieu of the required five foot (51) and zero (01)
side yard setback in lieu of the required five feet (51). Subject
property is located at 20701 Charwood Lane (North side of Charwood
Lane at intersection with Sunridge Drive)..
This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 1,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1970.
Staff said there is currently a single family residence on this
lot. Along the side of the applicant's property, there is a ten
foot (10') strip of land owned by the City where a forty-two inch
(42") storm drain exists approximately seven feet (71) below grade.
It was also originally used for pedestrian access from Charwood Lane
to the school site. In 1973, this strip was allowed to be utilized
by the owner at that time. According to the applicant, he now owns
this area but the tax rolls indicate that the City still owns it.
We have asked the applicant to present proof of ownership which he
has not done. There is a 200 Square Foot shed located on this strip
and the applicant wishes to convert this space into a mini -gym and
also build a 410 Square Foot addition fora weight room with shower
facilities. The applicant has already started construction without
benefit of a building permit. According to the City Code, no wall
over forty-two inches (42") high can be built over a storm drain.
Staff is recommending denial of this request based on our findings.
Staff has received two anonymous telephone calls regarding, this
project - one in favor of it and.the other objecting to the
construction.

The Public Hearing was opened and the applicant, George E. McCall,.
was present. Mr. McCall stated he did not believe there was a storm
drain in that area. He added that the City had built the wall and
he just wanted to expand into what the City left there. The City,
according to Mr. McCall, had knocked down the wall except for the
portion he wanted left, and they also put the roof over the shed.
Glen Godfrey asked the applicant how much he paid the City for all
this and Mr. McCall said he did not pay one penny.
After a further discussion about the storm drain and property
ownership, Chairman Smith closed the Public Hearing since there was
no one else wishing to speak concerning the project.
UPON MOTION BY EVANS, AND SECOND BY GODFREY, CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION
NO. 85-41 WAS DENIED WITH THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS, BY THE FOLLOWING
VOTE:
FINDINGS FOR DENIAL:
1. Because of the size, configuration, shape and lack of unique
topographic features of the subject property, there does not
appear to be exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or
conditions applicable to the land, buildings or premises
involved that does not apply generally to property or class of
uses in the same district.
2. Since the subject property can be fully developed within
regular established setbacks, such a conditional exception is
not necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial
property rights. There is adequate area to set back the
structures five feet (51) from property lines.
3. The proposed gym and weight room will not be compatible with
adjacent residential properties because they are proposed to be
built on the property line.
4. Granting of Conditional Exception No. 85-41 would constitute a
special privilege inconsistent with limitations upon properties
in the vicinity. Accessory structures of this size are
required to maintain a five foot (51) setback for proper light
and air ventilation.
5. Exceptional circumstances do not apply that deprive the subject
property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the same
zone classifications.
6. Roofed structures built on storm drains are prohibited by City
Ordinances.

COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT NO. 85-15
CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 85-45
USE PERMIT NO. 85-40
Applicant: Gloria Costa
A request to convert an existing retail facility with a small snack
counter into a pizza restaurant with forty-nine (49) seats within
the Downtown Specific Plan with a variance request for a reduction
in parking and a special permit request to maintain an existing
building with nonconforming setbacks and landscaping. Subject
property is located at 119 Main Street (West side of Main Street
between Pacific Coast Highway and Walnut Street).
This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 1,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1970.
Scott Hess said that, prior to presenting this application, Staff
would like to get a clarification of a section of the Downtown
Specific Plan which would affect two of these three applications.
We need to know whether the term "expansion of floor area" means
additional building area or existing building where portion is for
retail use and the other for restaurant use with reference to an
expansion.
Daryl Smith said, if more tables were to be added, that, in itself,
would constitute an increase in business.
Staff mentioned that it is a nonconforming building and the City is
concerned with its use. The applicant used eighty percent (80%) for
retail and only twenty percent (20%) for the snack area. If they
are just expanding the use, then they do not need the Coastal
Development Permit or the Conditional Exception. We would just have
to determine whether parking is adequate or whether the
applicant/owner will agree to participate in the Redevelopment
Agency parking arrangement for downtown which, incidentally, he has
done. Any expansion of actual floor area would require the entire
building to be brought up to Code.

Daryl Smith asked if the building is presently occupied and Scott
Hess replied that it is vacant. Staff said the applicant would need
a Certificate of Occupancy and the building would have to be brought
into conformance with the seismic standards.
Scott Hess further stated, after questioning by Daryl Smith, that if
the Board determines a need for all three applications - the Coastal
Development Permit, the Conditional Exception, and the Use Permit -
then the applications will need to be referred to the Planning
Commission for a special permit.
Glen Godfrey said it was his feeling it would be most judicious to
refer the matter to the Planning Commission for an interpretation of
the ambiguity in wording, and Daryl Smith said he could not disagree
with that idea.
There were no comments from the other members so Chairman Smith
opened the Public Hearing on the Use Permit.
The applicant's son, Carlos Costa, was present. Mr. Costa said they
would be adding about three (3) tables and some appliances but would
not be doing any actual renovation. He added that the Health
Department has approved their plans and he has agreed to bring the
building up to Code. Mr. Costa further said they had understood
there would be another six (6) months after October loth to bring
their building up to the seismic standards. The square footage
which will be in actual use will be the same as before.
The Public Hearing was closed as there was no one else present
wishing to speak for or against the project.
Mr. Smith said he had concerns about the applicant, and others in
similar situations, getting into uncontrollable costs by entering
into the parking arrangement and attempting to bring the buildings
up to seismic standards. Mr. Costa stated they do own the building,
which has common walls with businesses on each side of them, and
they will all work together on these solutions.
GLEN GODFREY MOVED THAT THE MATTER OF THE COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT
AND THE CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION BE REFERRED TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION
AT THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE DATE FOR RESOLUTION AND DECISION. MOTION
WAS SECONDED BY SMITH.
Scott Hess suggested that a motion might be made on the Use Permit
and let Staff work with Redevelopment and Public Works to iron out
the ambiguity. If we are unable to resolve it, then perhaps the
matter could be referred to the Planning Commission, and Jim Vincent
agreed with the suggestion.

Upon questioning by Ross Cranmer, the applicant said they wanted to
occupy the building as soon as possible. Daryl Smith said the
letter submitted by the applicant did not seem to specifically call
out the exact agreement, and Scott Hess said Staff would prepare a
letter for the applicant's signature which could be recorded.
After further discussion about the occupancy of the building, SMITH
WITHDREW HIS SECOND TO THE MOTION ON THE FLOOR. GODFREY, THE MAKER
OF THE MOTION, WITHDREW THE MOTION
No action was taken on Coastal Development Permit No. 85-15 or
Conditional Exception No. 85-45.
VINCENT SAID HE WOULD MOVE FOR APPROVAL OF THE USE PERMIT WITH
FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS PRESENTED WITH THE STIPULATION THAT STAFF
WOULD WORK WITH PUBLIC WORKS AND REDEVELOPMENT TO CLARIFY THE
AMBIGUITY OF WORDING.
UPON MOTION BY VINCENT AND SECOND BY EVANS, USE PERMIT NO. 85-40 WAS
APPROVED WITH THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS, BY THE
FOLLOWING VOTE:
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL:
1. A Use Permit for the restaurant is necessary for the

A request to permit construction of three (3) industrial buildings
to be located at the Southeast corner of Metzler Lane and Slater

This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 1,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1970.
Staff reported the applicant is proposing three (3) industrial
buildings - two (2) as industrial buildings and one (1) for
automotive repair. Staff has reviewed it and the project is
basically in conformance with the Code. This property is located in
the Coastal Zone and the elevations are subject to review by the

Page 12
Design Review Board. The Negative Declaration was not prepared and
Staff is recommending that the application be continued to the
meeting of August 7th for review by the Design Review Board and
preparation of the Negative Declaration.
Daryl Smith stated it appeared to him that the review could be taken
care of in the conditions but what bothered him was the Negative
Declaration.. He asked why it had not been prepared and Staff
replied it was thought to be exempt. Staff,further added that the
Negative Declaration would have to be properly advertised and this
will take two (2) weeks. The Board cannot, Staff reported, take
action on the Use Permit until.after the Negative Declaration is
adopted.
Chairman Smith opened the Public Hearing. The applicant's
representative, Warren Lortie, was present. The Board members
discussed with him their concerns relative to the project such as
consolidation of parcels, the fifteen foot (151) storm drain
easement along the easterly property line, the Slater Avenue access,
10' x 101-corner cut-offs, and Fire Department access.
The applicant requested a continuance of two (2) weeks to work with
Staff on the plan corrections needed and for the advertisement of
the Negative Declaration.
The Public Hearing remained open.

SITE PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 85-21
Applicant: Ned R. Healy and Company
A request to revise the parking lot layout at 17602 Griffin Lane
(East side of Griffin Lane at corner of -Burton Drive).
This request is covered.by Categorical Exemption, Class 1,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1970.
According to Staff, the applicant's proposal is for a�Site Plan
Amendment to,modify the parking layout. They -want to re -orient the
compact spaces to the opposite side of the lot. Because of the
grade, they would prefer to landscape the area shown on the map
rather than include all the landscaping at one end of .the property.
Staff is recommending a different plan.

Glen Godfrey asked if there was a reciprocal parking agreement and
Staff replied there was not. Les Evans expressed concern over the
drainage situation, and Daryl Smith asked that the Minutes reflect
the fact the Board approved the revision of the parking lot layout
only as to parking stalls and landscaping and not any changes in the
previously approved drainage plans.
The applicant's representative, Rita Healy, was present. She
reviewed the plan which Staff was recommending and mentioned the
fire hydrant would then be located behind the fence they planned to
erect. Jim Vincent stressed the fact the fire hydrant would have to
be on the driveway side of the fence for access or the gate would
have to meet Fire Department standards.
There was a discussion about the location of the "will call" area
and Ms. Healy explained most of the items would be picked up by
United Parcel Service rather than individual customers.
UPON MOTION BY EVANS AND SECOND BY VINCENT FOR APPROVAL OF STAFF'S
RECOMMENDED PLAN, SITE PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 85-21 WAS APPROVED WITH

Daryl Smith said this is a new sign and now Staff is saying it is
not satisfactory. He further asked when the permit was issued and
Mr. Hess replied three months ago. Glen Godfrey stated this was an
opportunity for the Board to rectify the condition of the obtrusive
sign. Daryl Smith asked if this was the only condition Staff was
recommending and Staff said it was.
The applicant, Dr. Richard A. Graham, was present. Dr. Graham said
he had spent over $12,000 for the sign and did not understand why
anyone felt it was obtrusive.
