® project and the suggested findings and conditions of approval for the coastal development permit.
Staff addressed the suggested findings for denial of the variance. Staff presented pictures and a
table representing other corner lots within the vicinity all of which comply with the required
setback.
Staff recommended approval of the coastal development permit based upon the findings and
subject to the conditions as outlined in the staff report, and denial of the variance based upon the
findings for denial.
Two telephone calls and one letter were received from neighboring property owners; and one
resident reviewed the plans at the zoning counter.
Staff stated that the suggested findings for the coastal development permit and the variance have
been corrected and that the applicant has received a copy.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED.
Richard Batistelli, 3481 Gilbert Drive, neighboring property owner, spoke in opposition to the
variance stating that the City code should be kept consistent and not allow variations.
Carole Garrett, 17163 Roundhill Drive, Huntington Harbour property owner, stated that she does
not live in close proximity to the proposed project. Ms. Garrett concurred with stars
recommendation.
CraigMann 1224 Village Wa Suite D Santa Ana architect spoke on behalf of the proposed
g Y� P p P
project and urged the Zoning Administrator's approval. Mr. Mann addressed concerns related to

concerning enhancements and cosmetic changes to the exterior of the block wall; the close
proximity of the wall to the south and the applicable building code; encroachment issues;
landscaping maintenance and side yard improvements; and elevations and grade differential.
Ms. Broeren stated that in general the City does not allow a variance in cases where demolition
and the building of a new home are proposed. Ms. Broeren stated support of staffs
recommendation for denial for the reasons as indicated in the suggested findings for denial. She
stated that although there is the grade differential, the project does not sufficiently meet with what
the City is attempting to achieve. She stated that given the location and the wider lot, there are
not sufficient grounds to support a variance. is

COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT NO. 02-25 WAS APPROVED BY THE ZONING
ADMINISTRATOR WITH THE FOLLOWING MODIFIED FINDINGS AND
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL. VARIANCE NO. 02-14 WAS DENIED WITH THE
FOLLOWING MODIFIED FINDINGS FOR DENIAL. SHE STATED THAT THE
ACTION TAKEN BY THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR CAN BE APPEALED TO THE
PLANNING COMMISSION WITHIN TEN (10) WORKING DAYS.
FINDINGS FOR PROJECTS EXEMPT FROM CEOA:
The Zoning Administrator finds that the project will not have any significant effect on the
environment and is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) pursuant to section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines, because the project consists of the
development of a single family home.
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT NO. 02-25:
Coastal Development Permit No. 02-25 for the demolition of an existing single-family
dwelling and the development of a two-story, 5,295 square foot, single-family dwelling at a
height of 27'-6" as modified by conditions of approval, conforms with the General Plan,
including the Local Coastal Program.
• 2. The project is consistent with the requirements of the CZ Overlay District, the base zoning
district, as well as other applicable provisions of the Municipal Code. The project as
conditioned, meets all the development regulations for the Low Density Residential zoning
district including the minimum required street side setback of ten (10) feet and the maximum
allowed lot coverage of fifty (50%) percent.
3. At the time of occupancy the proposed development can be provided with infrastructure in a
manner that is consistent with the Local Coastal Program. The proposed dwelling will be
constructed on a previously developed site in an urbanized area with all -necessary services and
infrastructure available.
4. The development conforms with the public access and public recreation policies of Chapter 3
of the California Coastal Act. The project will not impede public access or impact public
views to coastal resources.
FINDINGS FOR DENIAL - VARIANCE NO. 02-14:
1. The granting of Variance No. 02-14 to allow a five (5) foot street side yard setback in lieu of
the minimum code required street side setback of ten (10) feet will constitute a grant of
special privilege inconsistent with limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and under
an identical zone classification. The subject site is a corner lot similar to other corner lots,
which are developed with single family homes that comply with the minimum required ten
(10) foot street side yard setback.
ZA Minutes 01/29/03 3 (03zm0129)
2. The strict application of the zoning ordinance is not found to deprive the subject property of
privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under identical zone classification due
to special circumstances applicable to the subject property such as size or shape. The subject
property is on average wider and larger than most parcels in the immediate vicinity, which
further facilitates the use of the property for development of a single family home. The
average width and size of parcels within the immediate vicinity are fifty-eight and a half (58.5)
feet and 5,935 sq. ft. respectively. The subject property is approximately seventy-four (74)
feet wide and 7,506 square feet in size (an average of 15.5 feet wider and 1,571 sq. ft. larger
than the properties within the immediate vicinity).
The granting of a variance is not necessary to preserve the enjoyment of one or more
substantial property rights. Currently the property is developed with a two-story single-family
residence that complies with the minimum required ten (10) foot street side yard setback. The
subject site can be redeveloped with a single family home and comply with the requirements
for street side yard setback and lot coverage.
4. The granting of the variance will adversely affect the General Plan. It is inconsistent with the
with the following goals and policies of the General Plan Land Use Element designation of
Residential Low Density:
LU 9.2.1 Require that all new residential development within the existing residential •
neighborhoods (i.e. infill) be compatible with existing structures.
LU 9.1.3 Include an adequate landscape setback along the street frontage that is
integrated with abutting sidewalks and provides continuity throughout the
neighborhood.
Development of the subject property with a deviation in the street side yard setback and lot
coverage is not compatible with existing structures developed on similar lots under the same
limitations. In addition a deviation in the street side yard setback will reduce the amount of
space available for an adequate landscaped setback similar to that found on other corner lots
within the immediate vicinity.
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL — COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT NO. 02-25:
The site plan, floor plans and elevations received and dated January 22, 2003 shall be the
conceptually approved layout with the following modifications:
a. The plans shall be reconfigured to comply with minimum code required street side yard
setback of ten (10) feet.
b. If the window in the garage is aligned with a window on the adjacent property west, the
window shall consist of obscure glass.
