This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 5, California

Staff member, Don Shaw, reported that the licensee is in violation of home
occupation regulations with regard to the parking of commercial vehicles used
in conjunction with the business on the street overnight located at 21192
Miramar Lane.
The public hearing was opened and Walter D. Comstock, licensee, was
present. He stated that he is presently searching for a place to store his
trucks, stating that it was very difficult to obtain retail space that is
affordable. He stated that he has obtained permission from one of the tenants
at 8945 Atlanta, a beauty shop, to park his truck temporarily on these
premises. A letter was submitted to staff with tenant's signature authorizing
this transaction.
Mr. Strange, Acting Zoning Administrator, suggested that Mr. Comstock park
his trucks in the Industrial Park off of Newland. Mr. Comstock responded that
they did not have room for a truck his size.
Carlos Alderetti, attorney representing Mr. Comstock, was present and asked
that if his client complies with ordinance, would he be allowed to continue his
business. Staff stated yes.
Art Folger, representing the City Attorney, suggested that this matter be
continued for a couple of months, for the applicant to relocate.

CONDITIONAL' EXCEPTION NO. 88-11
Applicant: James M. Righeimer
This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 11, California
ENvironmental Quality Act, 1986.
Staff member, Kelly Main, reported that Conditional Exception No. 88-11 is a
request to permit a 6-unit apartment building with a 2nd story which
cantilevers two feet into the required driveway air space. (The required
backup width for the garage is 25 ft. and the second story cantilevers seven ft.
into this area.) This project will be located at 7882, 7884, and 7886 Holt
Avenue.
Staff supported the request for the following reasons:
a. The narrowness of the lot is somewhat unusual for medium density
residential property.
b. Adjacent properties with the same narrow shape were allowed
cantilevers, as the airspace rule only recently went into effect.
C. The intent of the airspace rule is to ensure that the Fire Department
trucks are able to reach the rear of the development. The Fire
Department has approved the proposed layout with the installation of
fire sprinklers throughout.
The public hearing was opened and James M. Righeimer, applicant, was
present and spoke in support of the request.
Bob Corona, as an observer, stated that he has seen this development built
before and spoke in support of the request.
There was no one else present to speak for or against the request so the public
hearing was closed.
