HUNTINGTON BEACH BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENTS
Room B-6 - Civic Center
2000 Main Street
Huntington Beach, California
WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 1987 - 1:30 P.M.
BOARD MEMBERS PRESENT: Evans (LA), Godfrey, Krejci, Patapoff, Poe
STAFF MEMBERS PRESENT: Phillips
MINUTES: Minutes of the Regular Meetings of April 29, May 6, and
May 13, 19,87, were postponed until later in the meeting
in order to have a sufficient number of voting members.
REGULAR AGENDA ITEMS:
CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 87-26 (Cont. from 5/6/87)
USE PERMIT NO. 87-19 (Cont. from 5/6/87)
Applicant: Willard J. Walters, AIA
CE REQUEST: To permit 1) a zero foot (0') side yard setback in lieu
of a thirty foot (30') setback for a warehouse building and 2)
eighty-three (83) parking spaces in lieu of ninety-five (95) parking
spaces.
UP REQUEST: To permit an eleven thousand, three hundred (11,300)
Square Foot warehouse addition to an industrial building within one
hundred fifty feet (150') of property zoned residential.
Subject property is located at 5252 Argosy Avenue (South side of
Argosy Avenue approximately eleven hundred feet (1,100') West of
Graham Street).
This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 5,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1986.
The Staff member, Laura Phillips, reminded the Board this item had
been continued to give the applicant time to resolve some issues
such as reciprocal access with the adjacent easterly property. The
layout, as proposed, would not leave any possibility for this
access. Staff recommended denial of the request because there was
no land -related hardship. Staff further explained the applicant had
today indicated some alternatives but did not present them to Staff
for review before the meeting. Staff said she was basing her
recommendation for denial on the site plan layout dated May 6, 1987.

Chairman Dennis Krejci said the Public Hearing had remained open
from the meeting of May 6th, and Willard Walters, the applicant, was
present. Mr. Walters stated it was his understanding the Planning
Department was to get the reciprocal access from the adjacent owner
but 'this had not been done. He further indicated there had been
considerable confusion with Staff members over placement of the
building on the lot, the parking layout, etc.
Carl Joice, representative of the owner, Dean Worldwide, stated
their attempting to get approval of this project had been very
frustrating - while other companies apparently seemed to obtain
approvals with very little effort. He added this would be a
building used exclusively for long-term storage and there would be
very little need for parking.
Dennis Krejci asked Mr. Joice if he would agree to a restriction
placed on the property that the building, if and when it was sold,
would be subject to the same restrictions; i.e., that it would
remain as a long-term storage operation. Mr. Joice at first agreed
to such a stipulation and then withdrew his agreement.
There was no one else present wishing to speak for or against the
project so the Public Hearing was closed.
This was followed by a lengthy discussion with the architect
regarding the new plan presented to the Board and possible solutions
of the parking problems, placement of the building, reciprocal
access, driveway widths, etc.
Les Evans arrived at the meeting at this time - 1:57 P.M.

USE PERMIT NO. 87-22
Applicant: William and Helen Susman
A request to establish a used car sales lot for a limited time
(temporary). Subject property is located at 17281 Beach Boulevard,
Suite B (West side of Beach Boulevard approximately nine hundred
feet (9001) North of Slater Avenue).
This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 4,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1986.
Staff said this was an existing site that had previously been used
for offices but was now vacant. The back area is used for storage
of cable equipment, and the applicant is proposing a temporary used
car sales lot at the location. The landscaping does not meet Code
requirements. The three foot (3') wide landscape planter should be
thirteen feet (13') wide for outdoor sales of automobiles. Staff
recommended that one of the driveways be closed and that the parking
lot plan be redone to provide the appropriate number of parking
spaces for the office and other uses.
Glen Godfrey asked if there had been any input from the
Redevelopment Agency and Staff answered that they had indicated no
problems with the project as long as it met Code requirements.
The Public Hearing was opened and Bob Ohanian said he was the
prospective tenant for the location. Mr. Ohanian added he was just
basically attempting to establish a used car dealership on a
temporary basis and would be leasing the property from the Susmans.
Mr. Ohanian said the landscaping requirements were extremely
excessive for a temporary use, especially since practically none of
the permanent dealerships had such installations.
The owners of the property, William and Helen Susman, were present
and objected strenuously to closing the driveway as suggested by
-5- 5/20/87 - BZA
Minutes, H. B. Board of Zoning Adjustments
May 20, 1987
Page 6
Staff. Mrs. Susman explained their intentions of building on the
lot within the next year or so and felt the driveway should be left
open.
There was a lengthy discussion between the Board members, Staff, and
the applicants regarding proposed plans for Beach Boulevard and the
applicants were reminded of the many existing businesses in
Huntington Beach which had supposedly started as "temporary" uses
but were still in existence after many years.
There.was no one else present wishing to speak for or against the
project so the Public Hearing was closed.
Dennis Krejci suggested that a date could be established for
completion of the improvements on the lot for the future
construction - or that a bond could be posted for this period of
time to ensure that this present request would, indeed, be a
temporary operation. Les Evans explained that it would require a
$10,000.00 surety bond and might be difficult for the property
owners to obtain. Mrs. Susman then commented that it might be more
than one (1) year before they would be able to construct a new
building.

property line with an emergency access gate. The -proposal conforms
with Code for landscaping and setbacks and the elevations have been
approved by the Design Review Board. The North end area where
landscaping is shown should be incorporated into Building "D".
Staff recommended approval with conditions.
f
Dennis Krejci asked about posting the street. Ms. Phillips replied
that it would be more like a private driveway and should not require
any signage.
John Lundstrom was present to represent the applicant and he asked
about the width of the driveway. Staff explained the final approval
had been for a twenty-eight foot (281) driveway. Mr. Lundstrom
-8- 5/20/87 - BZA
Minutes, H. B. Board of Zoning Adjustments

objected to including the area into Building "D" because it would
change the configuration of the building and would be much more
expensive. He then suggested putting a "man -door" in Building "D"
for access to the area in question.
Les Evans said he would move for approval of the request and Dennis
Krejci seconded it. Bill Patapoff asked if the maker and seconder
would accept an additional condition requiring the paving of the
area adjacent to the railroad tracks. The maker and seconder of the
motion agreed to the condition.

TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO. 87-240
Applicant: Kevin Vidal
A request to consolidate two (2) lots and a portion of a third lot
to create one (1) lot for development purposes. Subject property is
located at 811 Frankfort Avenue approximately one hundred fifty feet
(150') northeasterly of Hill Street).
This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 5,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1986.
Staff reported the applicant had verbally requested a continuance
but a letter had not been received supporting the request. There
would be a fifteen foot (15') strip left which would not be a legal
parcel. The applicant wants time to further discuss this problem
with Public Works.
Les Evans said several of these types of lots were being
consolidated. When these people come in to the City, they want to
consolidate what they have by deed and not what is required by the
State Map Act. This particular parcel is difficult - one half of
Lot 5 is owned by one person and the other half by another person.
We need to do some research on the original separation of Lot 5 and
the strip which would be left.
Martin Steigner, Academy Builders, was present to represent the
applicant. Mr. Steigner stated the applicant was unable to attend
but had given him tax bills dating from 1949 to 1951, proving there
was a lot split.

Mr. Steigner stated it might be possible to get a title report for
the property. After further discussion about the houses being moved
to this location in 1922, County and City boundaries, possible
illegal splitting of Lot 5, etc., Mr. Steigner requested a
continuance for further research.
Bill Patapoff suggested possibly creating one seventy-five foot
(75') parcel and another parcel of forty-five feet (451), which
would resolve the problem. There was further discussion about this
and other possible solutions.
