AYES: Evans, Krejci, Poe, Smith, Strange NOES: None ABSENT: None CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 87-39 USE PERMIT NO. 87-41 Applicant: Dewayne Brown CE REQUEST: To permit a four foot (4') wide landscape buffer adjacent to residentially zoned property in lieu of a six foot (6') wide buffer. UP REQUEST: To permit a thirteen thousand, five hundred fourteen (13,514) Square Foot industrial building within one hundred fifty feet (150') of residentially zoned property. Subject property is located at 5266 System Drive (Southeast corner of Chemical Lane and System Drive). This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 5, California Environmental Quality Act, 1986. Staff reported this request was for an industrial building on a currently vacant flag -shaped lot. Residential property abuts the West property line and the South property line runs along the flood channel. The Fire Department has reviewed and basically approved the plan. The applicant has sufficient parking and could meet the setback requirements by reducing the building size by two feet (21). However, the applicant is requesting a variance from the required six foot (6') landscaper buffer by providing a four foot (4') landscape planter along the westerly property line. Staff recommended -denial of the Conditional Exception variance but approval of the Use Permit with conditions. Daryl Smith asked for verification from Staff that the applicant would lose two feet (21) of building space if the Conditional Exception was not granted and Staff replied that was correct. -4- 6/10/87 - BZA Minutes, H. B. Board of Zoning Adjustments June 10, 1987 Page 5 The Public Hearing was opened by Chairman Krejci and Robert Brown was present to represent the applicant. Mr. Brown stated this was the last buildable lot in this area on Chemical Lane and System Drive. This is a flag -shaped lot and has created difficulties in designing the building. He added the applicant needed the additional two feet (2') on the building for leasing purposes and activities in the building. The architect for the project, John Madsen, stated the four foot (4') landscape planter would provide space for planting trees which would help buffer any sounds from the industrial building. There was no one else present wishing to speak for or against the project so the Public Hearing was closed. Daryl Smith added that in some cases the City Council and Planning Commission have required eight foot (8') wide buffers in lieu of the six foot (6') ones where an industrial building was adjacent to residential property. He added the four foot (4') landscape buffer would not be sufficiently wide to allow proper growth for trees and would ultimately damage the wall and/or parking lot. UPON MOTION BY SMITH AND SECOND BY STRANGE, CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 87-39 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. 3. The proposed setback will not be compatible with adjacent residential properties. A six foot (6') wide buffer should be required in accordance with Ordinance Code requirements. 4. Granting of Conditional Exception No. 87-39 would constitute a special privilege inconsistent with limitations upon properties in the vicinity. 5. Exceptional circumstances do not property of privileges enjoyed by zone classifications. apply that deprive the subject other properties in the same -5- 6/10/87 - BZA Minutes, H. B.

AYES: Evans, Krejci, Poe, Smith, Strange NOES: None ABSENT: None USE PERMIT NO. 87-40 Applicant: •David Ida A request to permit a two (2) car garage addition to a single family home with an existing nonconforming front yard setback. Subject property is located at 724 Fourteenth Street (East side of Fourteenth Street approximately two hundred seventy-five feet (275') North of Palm Avenue). This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 1, California Environmental Quality Act, 1986. Staff reported this application was for a twenty-five foot (25') wide property with alley access in an R-1 Zone. The applicant is proposing removal of an old one -car garage to be replaced with a new two -car garage. The existing property has a nonconforming setback in front but the rest of the house and the new addition will comply with Code requirements. Staff recommended approval with conditions. Dennis Krejci asked for clarification of the nonconforming status. Staff indicated the property had conformed with Codes when it was built but the Code had been changed since that time. The Public Hearing was opened and David Ida was present. Mr. Ida stated the garage was built approximately fifty (50) years ago and a modern car could not be parked inside it. He added he wanted to replace the existing garage with a new two -car garage and had changed the roof line from a flat roof as shown on the original plans to a pitch roof. The Board concurred with this change. There was no one else present wishing to speak for or against the project so the Public Hearing was closed.

Board of Zoning Adjustments June 10, 1987 Page 10 AYES: Evans, Krejci, Poe, Smith, Strange NOES: None ABSENT: None USE PERMIT NO. 87-42 Applicant: Tuan Minh Vu A request to permit a temporary outdoor sale in a parking lot (June 12 through -June 21, 1987). Subject property is located at 7738 Edinger Avenue (Southeast corner of Sher Lane and Edinger Avenue). This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 4, California Environmental Quality Act, 1986. Staff reported this request was to allow erection -of a tent in a parking lot for a ten (10) day sale. The applicant will need to obtain approval of the tent material and construction from the Fire Department and to obtain electrical permits from the Building Division. Staff recommended approval with conditions. Daryl Smith asked if tenants of the shopping center had been notified and Staff replied that adjacent property owners had been notified as required - not the tenants. Mr. Smith expressed concern that tenants such as Leo's Stereo might be inconvenienced by lack of parking for such a long period of time. This was followed by a discussion regarding the parking situation in this particular center and it was determined that several tenant spaces were vacant. Mr. Smith suggested a condition that the sale be approved for ten (10) days with review by Staff after five (5) days. If any problems were found to exist, the sale would be stopped at that time. Michael Strange stated it was his understanding that the Zoning Code allowed temporary outdoor events for up to twenty-one (21) days and he would prefer continuing the item than stopping the applicant in "mid -stream" on his sale. Tom Poe reminded the Board the requested date for starting the sale was June 12th so the request could not be continued. The Public Hearing was opened and Tuan Minh Vu was present. Mr. Vu stated the tent would be placed in the middle of the parking lot in front of his business and there would be plenty of remaining parking. He added that Charlie's Warehouse was near his operation and neither of them had much business. Mr. Vu stated that Leo's Stereo had ample parking in front of their business. Dennis Krejci asked Tom Poe about the Fire Department requirement for deleting parking spaces within thirty feet (30') of the tent - which would eliminate approximately sixty (60) parking spaces. Mr. Poe verified that Mr. Krejci's comment was correct. -10- 6/10/87 - BZA 1 r�l Minutes, H. B. Board of Zoning Adjustments June 10, 1987 Page 11 There was no one else present wishing to speak for or against the request so the Public Hearing was closed. Daryl Smith asked for a condition requiring the applicant to repair the asphalt of the parking lot if there were any posts, poles or holes placed in the asphalt for placement of the tent. Mr. Smith also requested a Finding which would stipulate that the Board considered the fact the shopping center was not fully leased before granting approval of a ten (10) day event. Michael Strange stated the condition should be included which restricted parking within thirty feet (30') of the tent and Tom Poe indicated there were other regulations required by the Fire Department which still had to be approved before the Certificate to Operate was issued. Les Evans said he would move for approval with amended findings and conditions and Michael Strange seconded the motion. Daryl Smith asked if the maker and seconder of the motion would add a condition requiring that the applicant provide clean up of the area on a daily basis, as well as the condition for patching or repairing the asphalt. Both the maker and seconder accepted the amendments. UPON MOTION BY EVANS AND SECOND BY STRANGE, USE PERMIT NO. 87-42 WAS APPROVED WITH THE FOLLOWING AMENDED FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS, BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL: 1.

AYES: Evans, Poe, Smith, Strange NOES: Krejci ABSENT: None USE PERMIT NO. 87-43 Applicant: Alex Beauroyre A request to permit a four (4) unit apartment complex which is located more than one hundred fifty feet (150') from a public street. Subject property is located at 16781 Roosevelt Lane (West side of Roosevelt Lane extension one hundred seventy feet (170') South of Pearce Street). This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 5, California Environmental Quality Act, 1986. Staff indicated this was a request for a four-plex to be located on Roosevelt Lane and will be approximately one hundred and sixty-nine feet (169') from the nearest public street. The applicant is proposing one two-story unit but the other units will be above garages. Because of the proximity to Meadowlark Airport, the applicant will have to contact the FAA for clearance requirements. Staff recommended that the site plan and buildings be reversed so the driveway would match the established pattern on the street. Unit "A" should also be revised for more pleasing elevation and roof lines. One garage must be converted to open space guest parking and the applicant will need to submit a parcel map or proof of legal creation of the lot. Staff also requested a letter to be recorded as a covenant against the property declaring it will remain as four (4) dwelling units and this letter should be filed prior to issuance of building permits. Daryl Smith clarified with Staff the reason the request was before the Board - that it was required because of being more than one hundred fifty feet (150') from a public street; otherwise, it would not have required a Use Permit. Mr. Smith discussed with Les Evans the necessity for street improvements on both involved streets - one to public street standards and the other to private street standards. -13- 6/10/87 - BZA Minutes, H. B. Board of Zoning Adjustments June 10, 1987 Page 14 Dennis Krejci reminded Staff that recently the Board had heard a similar case where the number of gas and electric meters were restricted and asked if that should be added as a condition on this project. Staff replied it could be restricted to four (4) each gas meters and mail boxes but five (5) electrical meters for outside lighting. The Public Hearing was opened and the applicant, Alex Beauroyre, was present. He asked his contractor, Ron Burns, to speak in his behalf. Mr. Burns said he did not understand the Board's concern with the architecture of the buildings since they were so far from a public street. Les Evans explained that any time an application appeared before the Board, it opened up any physical aspects or questions the Board might have regarding the project - including whether or not it fit into the neighborhood. Mr. Burns objected to reversing the driveway and buildings and said it would require all new drawings before being approved by the Building Division. He added the grading plans and street improvement plans were already complete and it would cost about $6,000.00 to get new plans drawn. Dennis Krejci assured Mr. Burns that, in this one instance, the Building Division would accept his reversed plans. Cheryle Browning, 16771 Roosevelt Lane, spoke in objection to the project, stating the grading of the lot would be approximately three feet (31) higher than her own adjacent lot. She expressed concern over the height of the building because of proximity to the airport, the number of enclosed garages, and properly saw cutting a portion of her patio which was on the applicant's property. She also requested that the buildings be "flip-flopped" so the driveways would create the proper pattern along the street. Mr. Burns added he did not feel it was the responsibility of his company to saw cut a patio which had been encroaching on his property for several years. Les Evans said he would suggest a condition to the effect that it would be properly saw cut at the property line. A further discussion ensued concerning the problems involved with reversing the plans and driveway, the required street improvements and dedications, the height of the building, altering Unit "A", drainage, etc. Mr. Burns initiated a discussion relative to the location of Ms. Browning's driveway and presented photographs indicating the locations of two (2) driveways into her property. Ms. Browning said her garage was currently closed but the driveway had been on the North side. She added she was in the process of moving it to the front. -14- 6/10/87 - BZA Minutes, H. B.
