ITEM 1: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO 96-50
PETITION DOCUMENT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO.96-50
(TOSH'S MEDITERRANEAN RESTAURANT)
APPLICANT: Erdem Denktas
REQUEST: To permit an existing 400 square foot outdoor dining patio
at Tosh's Mediterranean Restaurant. The application
includes a request to permit a six (6) foot high combination
plexiglass wall at a 19 foot, four (4) inch setback from
Beach Boulevard (maximum 42 inches high or minimum 25
foot setback required).
LOCATION: 16871 Beach Boulevard (West of Beach, North of Warner)
PROJECT PLANNER: Jane Madera
Jane Madera, project planner, presented the staff report and site plans. The applicant is
requesting approval of an existing patio that had been built without benefit of permits and is also
requesting permission to use the patio for outdoor dining. The conditional use permit is required
for the outdoor dining and because the patio wall is within the required front yard set back area.
L
The patio is 19 feet, four (4) inches from Beach Boulevard; it therefore encroaches into the 25
foot front yard setback area. The Design Review Board reviewed the patio materials and colors
and recommended approval with the condition that the existing landscape area be upgraded
within one (1) year of approval. This includes landscaping on the north side of the property. The
Design Review Board also recommended that the landscaping inside the outdoor dining area be
real plants versus artificial. Ms. Madera stated that the usable size of the patio is 600 square feet.
According to code, if the patio is over 400 square feet, the applicant must provide additional
parking. The applicant proposes to use planters to cover 200 square feet within the usable dining
area therefore using only 400 square feet for dining. Staff recommended approval of the request
because it is compatible with the surrounding area. Ms. Madera mentioned that she received one
faxed letter from an adjacent property owner who is opposed to the outdoor dining area because
he feels it blocks visibility for people driving south on Beach Boulevard. Staff recommended the
following conditions: .1) building and/or any electrical permits must be obtained within 90 days
of approval; 2) no roof, awning or any permanent cover be put on the outdoor dining area, only
umbrellas; 3) no painting or advertising be permitted on the plexiglass; 4) no banners be hung
on the patio area; 5) provide handicap access to the dining area; and 6) improve landscaping
within a one (1) year period.
Mr. Fauland asked if the parking area needed to be improved. Ms. Madera indicated that staff
did not consider it necessary. Mr. Fauland asked if there was a condition requiring that the
material on the top portion of the walls remain clear. Mr. Fauland expressed concern that the
applicant may try at some future date to enclose the patio entirely. He asked Ms. Madera to
construct a condition to keep the walls clear to address the visibility concerns.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED.
Erdem Denktas, applicant, responded to the concern about the state of the parking lot. He said
that due to insurance requirements, he has made repairs to the parking lot. Regarding the
landscaping on the site, he has been fixing the place incrementally and will continue to do so.
THERE WERE NO OTHER PERSONS PRESENT TO SPEAK FOR OR AGAINST THE
REQUEST AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Mr. Fauland expressed concern that Mr. Denktas built this struct'are without permits. Mr.
Denktas responded that his contractor had been in contact with the City, and the City told him
that he could build a cement pad and fence not to exceed 42 inches. He went forth with this, but
after completion decided that it did not look appzopriate so he continued with the construction.
Mr. Fauland reiterated that if any further construction was needed that he must first obtain the
proper permits. Mr. Fauland indicated that the proposal as conditioned by staff would be a
compatible addition to the building and the Beach Boulevard street scene.

FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO 6-50•

the outdoor dining patio within the front setback will not be detrimental to the general
welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity nor detrimental to the value of the
property and improvements in the neighborhood. The outdoor dining patio is consistent
with other retail and restaurant uses in the immediate vicinity. The six (6) foot high wall
surrounding the patio is constructed of a combination low brick wall with plexiglass
above which maintains visibility through the wall to adjacent properties. In addition,
conditions of approval are included which require the clear plexiglass to be maintained
free of advertising and covering so that visibility through the wall is always maintained.

Commercial Land Use designation of the General Plan of the City of Huntington Beach

along Beach Boulevard. The upgraded landscaping is consistent with the General Plan's
urban design goals and policies.

provisions in Titles 20-25 and any specific condition required for the proposed use in the

bedroom into an accessory dwelling unit with kitchen.
LOCATION: 8472 Velvet Circle (North of Adams and West of

PROJECT PLANNER: Jane Madera
Jane Madera, project planner, presented the staff report. The application is for conversion of a
three-story room addition into an accessory unit. The applicant is applying to add a separate
kitchen. There is access to the unit via a staircase in the backyard and from the interior of the
residence as well. State law requires local governments to allow single family residences to have

meets all development standards for an accessory dwelling unit, and is attached to the main
dwelling; 2) The entrance is not visible from the street; 3) Only one bedroom is provided in the
unit, and the entire unit is less than 650 square feet; and 4) There is one extra space parking
allowed. Additionally, the residence needs to remain owner occupied, and the conditions of

required to pay a park land dedication fee equal to 25 percent of the fee for a single family
residence, which is $780.00. Ms. Madera received one phone call regarding this project. The
caller asked about who the tenant would be. Ms. Madera reported that there are no restrictions as
to who the tenant is and the only restriction is that the house itself be owner occupied and that the
second unit not be sold separately from the residence.
Mr. Fauland asked who would be living in this unit. Ms. Madera replied that the applicant
indicated an existing roommate would be living in the unit.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED.
Larry Messelt, 8461 Clarkdale, mentioned that he lives behind this property. He expressed
concern about different people living there from time to time. Mr. Messelt stated that he is not in
support of this project. He said that there are no other residences in this area which have
additional units like this and that this is the only home in this area with three stories.
Mary McGovern, 8471 Clarkdale, expressed her concern that.the entrance to this proposed unit is
in the backyard. She also mentioned that the applicant does not live there; he is only there one
day per week.
Mike Broz, owner of the property, responded that his roommate is temporarily living with
relatives while he is finishing college, and he will return to this property at the end of the year.
He also stated that there is no other person living in the house except for the two of them. He
explained that his work hours make it seem like he is never at home; he leaves early and returns
late. Mr. Broz said that he is not proposing to change use of the property as it is today and that
the request will not disturb anyone.
THERE WERE NO OTHER PERSONS PRESENT TO SPEAK FOR OR AGAINST THE
REQUEST AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Mr. Fauland asked if the internal walls between the units would be closed. Mr. Broz replied that
the wall remains open, which is a City requirement. Mr. Fauland asked Ms. Madera if there were
going to be any improvements to the exterior the building; Ms. Madera responded that there
would be none. Mr. Fauland then reiterated that single family residential units are allowed to
have secondary units located within them and that the applicant is in compliance. He also noted
that the house does not give the appearance of a second unit.

(SATELLITE DISH)
APPLICANT: Theodore Maruschak
REQUEST: To permit an existing satellite dish antenna with a reduced
sideyard setback [five (5) feet in lieu of minimum 10 feet]
LOCATION: 9021 Oceanwood Drive (north of Atlanta Avenue, east of
Magnolia Street).
PROJECT PLANNER: Wayne Carvalho
Mr. Carvalho, project planner, stated that this project is a result of a code enforcement inquiry
and a civil matter involving drainage on to an adjacent property. Mr. Carvalho stated that this is
an existing satellite dish. Referring to the site plan, he indicated that there is a four (4) foot
easement on the adjacent property which precludes any structures. Staff originally asked the
applicant to consider relocating the satellite dish. It appears, however, that its present location is
preferred because of constraints in the backyard, and if located on the roof, it would be more
visible to the public view. Mr. Carvalho indicated where on the roof the vendor recommended
the dish be located in order to receive the best reception. Staff recommended approval to
maintain the dish in its present location with findings that the aesthetic value will be preserved
and will not create any obstructions, with a condition that the base be screened. No phone calls
or written correspondence has been received.
Mr. Fauland asked if the dish was attached to a platform below. Mr. Carvalho responded that it
was and that the area is used for gardening and tool storage.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED.
Theodore Maruschak, applicant, stated that there are other satellite dishes in the area that are
more prominent than his.

Plan of the City of Huntington Beach. The satellite dish antenna is consistent with the
Residential Low Density Land Use designation of the General Plan.

ITEM 6• CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO 96-65
PETITION DOCUMENT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO, 96-65
(BALLET SCHOOL)
APPLICANT: Alexander and Marina Kalinin
REQUEST: To establish a personal enrichment business, a ballet school,
in an existing 1,492 square foot commercial suite.
LOCATION: 15061 Goldenwest Street (southwest corner of Goldenwest
Street and Bolsa Avenue)
PROJECT PLANNER: Mary Beth Broeren
Ms. Broeren, project planner, stated that this project would occupy an existing suite in the rear
portion of the shopping center. City policy states that any personal enrichment use that is located
in a shopping center would require one (1) parking space for every 200 square feet if the class
size is equivalent to the number of parking spaces that would be required for a retail use. A
maximum of eight (8) students per class would be allowed for the proposed use. Staff believes
that the use is compatible with the shopping center and recommends approval with several
conditions including: 1) a maximum of eight (8) students at one time within the instructional
area; 2) the rear door be closed during instruction; and 3) no parking directly in front of the
ballet center so that the other tenants will have adequate parking. The applicant proposes a

maximum of three (3) instructors at any given time and classes would run 1-1/2 to 2 hours. The
class hours would be after school and in the evenings. Ms. Broeren mentioned that she did not
receive any phone calls or written correspondence regarding this use. In addition to the other
conditions previously mentioned, the applicant would have to comply with all Fire Department
requirements and obtain a Certificate of Occupancy. Ms. Broeren noted that over time the
parking stalls in the center have been reduced by 15 as tenant improvements have been
completed and ADA requirements have been triggered.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED.
Alexander Kalinin, applicant, has been a ballet instructor for the past fifteen years and is well
aware of the needs of this type of business.
Brendan Smith, Business Properties, was present and represented the property owner. He stated
that the Kalinin's business is very high profile and viable.
Mr. Fauland asked if Mr. Smith was aware of the conditions. He said that the property owner is
agreeable with the conditions.
THERE WERE NO OTHER PERSONS PRESENT TO SPEAK FOR OR AGAINST THE
REQUEST AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO.96-65 WAS APPROVED BY THE ZONING
ADMINISTRATOR WITH THE FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL AS
RECOMMENDED BY STAFF. HE STATED THAT THE ACTION TAKEN BY THE
ZONING ADMINISTRATOR CAN BE APPEALED TO THE PLANNING
COMMISSION WITHIN TEN (10) CALENDAR DAYS.
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO 96-65•
1. Conditional Use Permit No. 96-65 for the establishment, maintenance and operation of a
personal enrichment business for a ballet school will not be detrimental to the general
welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity nor detrimental to the value of the
property and improvements in the neighborhood. Class sizes will be restricted to a
maximum of eight (8) students to minimize impacts on parking. The suite is located in
the rear of the center; thus, the dropping off/picking up of students will not pose a
circulation or safety hazard for the rest of the shopping center. The use is compatible
with other commercial uses in the center and will not impact the residential uses to the
rear with the condition requiring rear doors to be closed during instruction.
2. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 96-65 will riot adversely affect the General
Plan of the City of Huntington Beach. The use is consistent with the goals and objectives
of the Commercial General land use designation for the property.
