ZONING ADMINISTRATOR PRESENT: James W. Palin
STAFF MEMBERS PRESENT: Laura Phillips
MINUTES: MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 2, 1987,
WERE APPROVED BY THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR, AS
TRANSCRIBED.
REGULAR AGENDA ITEMS:
After a discussion between James W. Palin, Zoning Administrator, and
Laura Phillips, Staff member, it was determined that Tentative
Parcel Map No. 87-295 would be heard out of sequence because of the
possibility of a continuance of the request.
TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO. 87-295
Applicant: William D. Noordman
A request to consolidate portions of two (2) parcels into one (1)
parcel. Subject property is located at 413 Seventh Street (West
side of Seventh Street approximately one hundred seventy-five feet
(175') South of Pecan Avenue).
This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 5,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1986.
Staff reported the proposal is for consolidation of portions of two
(2) parcels into one (1) parcel; however, in doing research on the
request; it was determined that the adjacent properties should be
incorporated to avoid creation of illegal lots on either side of the
subject parcel.
The applicant's representative, Louise Noordman, was present. The
Zoning Administrator explained that the adjacent property owners
would have to be contacted. Ms. Noordman requested a two (2) week
continuance to establish such an agreement with the property owners

and asked whether the continuance would hold up issuance of the .
building permits. Mr. Palin explained it would not do so but would,
however, delay occupancy of the building until after all conditions
of the parcel map were met.
TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO. 87-295 WAS CONTINUED BY THE ZONING
ADMINISTRATOR, AT THE REQUEST OF THE APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE, TO
THE MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 23, 1987.
CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 87-64 (Cont. from 8/26/87)
Applicant: Southridge Homes/Yorktown Associates
A request to permit 1) a wood -type wall at zero foot (0') setback
along the easterly or,southerly property line in lieu of a masonry
wall, and 2) a thirteen foot, four inch (13'-4") minimum front yard
setback in lieu of fifteen feet (15'). Subject property is located
at 2418-2420 Huntington Street (Southeast corner of Yorktown Avenue
and Huntington Street).
This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 5,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1986.
The Zoning Administrator explained this item had been continued from
the meeting of August 26th to be readvertised for a revised
request. The original request had indicated a wall at zero feet
(01) along the southerly property line. This was readvertised for
the option of moving the garage structures to the easterly property
line or remaining on the southerly side of the property. The
applicant has submitted revisions. The parapet -type structure has
been eliminated and a mansard -type design has been incorporated on
both the North and South facades. The height of the wall would be
nine feet (9') and the mansard slope would be seven feet, six inches
(7'-6")•
Mr. Palin noted that Robert Bazil, owner of the property to the
South, was present and asked Staff if she had contacted the property
owner to the East. Ms. Phillips replied the owner had been informed
of the time and place of the meeting but had made no comments
regarding the proposal.
The Public Hearing had been left open from the previous meeting and
it was reopened because of the new advertisement. Jerome M. Bame,-'
Attorney, was present and stated he was appearing on behalf of the
applicants. Mr. Bame said there was one additional item - the
applicants were willing to change the wood -type wall to a stucco
wall for better maintenance if it were allowed to remain on the
southerly property line. Mr. Bame added the other concessions were
being made so the necessary permits and exceptions could be granted.

Mr. Palin indicated that to revise the plan would show most parking
spaces being closer to the units, and it appeared that two (2) car
garages would now be individual garages. The property owner, "Duf"
Sfreddo, stated that had always been the intent. Tony Ursino added
the enclosed garages were intended for use by the townhouse
occupants. There was a further discussion regarding the garage
assignments, after which Mr. Bame indicated he had no further
comments.
Robert-Bazil, owner of the property to the South, quickly reviewed
the revised plans and stated they appeared to be better than the
previous ones. Mr. Bazil further added it was regrettable the Site
Plan Amendment had been granted without being a public hearing
process, but, with the situation being what it was now, he would be
willing to go along with the structure along the South property line.
There was no one else present wishing to speak for or against the
project so the Public Hearing was closed.
Mr. Palin reiterated Mr. Bazil's concerns regarding the unfortunate
set of circumstances which had created the present situation. He
suggested to the applicants that, on future projects, they should
have the assigned parking checked when the plans were filed. The
Zoning Administrator said he would approve the project with amended
conditions and enumerated the conditions. They have been
incorporated into the Conditions of Approval for the project.
CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 87-64 WAS APPROVED BY THE -ZONING
ADMINISTRATOR WITH THE FOLLOWING AMENDED FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS:
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL:
1. Because of special circumstances applicable to the subject
property, including size, shape, topography, location or
surroundings, the strict application of the Zoning Ordinance is
found to deprive the subject property of privileges enjoyed by
other properties in the vicinity and under identical zone
classifications. The lot is unusually shaped due to the curve
of Yorktown Avenue.
2. The granting of a Conditional Exception is necessary in order
to preserve the enjoyment of one or more substantial property
rights.
3. The granting of Conditional Exception No. 87-64 will not be
materially detrimental to the public welfare, or injurious to
property in the same zone classifications.
4. The one and one-half foot (1-1/29) maximum setback encroachment
will result in a floor area encroachment not to exceed five (5)
Square Feet.

Applicant: Taco Bell/Steve Abbott
CE REQUEST: To permit 1) a building to encroach nineteen feet (19')
into the required fifty foot (501) front yard setback, and 2) to
allow stacking in the drive-thru lane to count toward forty-two
percent (42%) of the required on -site parking in lieu of a maximum

restaurant.
Subject property is located at 9142 Garfield Avenue (Southeast

This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 5,
California Environmental Quality Act, 1986.
The Zoning Administrator enumerated the requests which were being
made by Taco Bell.
The Public Hearing was opened and Steve Abbott, the applicant, was
present. Mr. Abbott said he had been contacted that morning by
Staff with some additional concerns. The building, as it exists, is
thirty-two feet (32') from the right-of-way line and is encroaching
into it. Mr. Abbott continued that they were utilizing the existing
landscaping, and they had modified the site plan to alleviate some
of-Staff's concerns. He said this new plan would increase the
parking spaces from thirteen (13) to fourteen (14) with two (2)
additional stacking spaces. The applicant presented a copy of the
revised site plan to the Zoning Administrator.
Mr. Palin and Ms. Phillips reviewed the plan to determine if the
alterations to the site plan had been correctly made. Mr. Palin
asked if Taco Bell had granted authorization for these changes.
Mr. Abbott explained Taco Bell would have a "right of review" but
had authorized them to "go with whatever we can". Mr. Abbott
further requested that the Zoning Administrator act on their project
pursuant to the revised site plan.
Mr. Palin said he would like to commend the applicants for working
so closely with the City staff members. He added the revised site
plan indicated an increase in landscaping of only a two foot (2')
encroachment which is within two feet (26) of complying with Code.
The applicant was able to preserve a sixteen foot (16') deep planter

building front. This is a much better layout and design.
There was no one else present wishing to speak for or against the
project so the Public Hearing was closed.
