FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 00-24: Conditional Use Permit No. 00-24 for the establishment, maintenance and operation of the 650 square foot accessory dwelling unit attached to the existing single family residence by a covered breezeway will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the vicinity or detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood. The accessory dwelling unit is attached to the main residence by a covered breezeway and results in an architecturally unified whole, off-street parking is provided for the new unit, the accessory dwelling meets or exceeds all development standards that would apply to a room addition in the same location, and the unit will not create any undue noise, traffic, or visual impacts to the adjacent residential properties. With the conditions of approval imposed, public and utility services, including emergency access are adequate to serve both dwellings. As required by the zoning code, the existing main dwelling is owner occupied and the accessory dwelling unit may not be sold separately from the primary house. 2. The conditional use permit will be compatible with surrounding uses because the proposed 650 • square foot accessory dwelling unit will be architecturally unified with the existing single family ZA Minutes 07/19/00 2 (OOZM0719) residence by an attached covered breezeway, the roof line and pitch are compatible with the ® existing structure, and the new unit meets all required setbacks. Although some of the adjacent properties have two stories, no adjacent structure has any windows that would be impacted by the new development. In addition, the accessory unit maintains the scale of adjoining residences and is compatible with the design of existing dwellings in the vicinity in terms of building materials, colors, and exterior finishes. Also, an off-street parking space is provided for the accessory dwelling unit as required by the zoning code. The proposed Conditional Use Permit No. 00-24 will comply with the provisions of the base district and other applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance.

Policy LU 9.2.1: Require that all new residential development within existing residential neighborhoods (i.e. infill) be compatible with existing structures. c. Objective LU 9.5: Provide for the development of housing for senior citizens, the physically and mentally challenged, and very low, low, and moderate income families. The accessory dwelling unit is considered a unique housing structure within the Low Density Residential zoning district, the new residence will be compatible with the existing structure on the property and within the surrounding neighborhood, and the residence will provide housing for senior citizens since the applicant has indicated the unit is intended to provide housing for the applicant's parents.
