ORD 325U ORDINANCE NO. 325 U
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS
VERDES EXTENDING THE TIME TO REGISTER
NONCONFORMING USES AND STRUCTURES LOCATED
IN THE EQUESTRIAN OVERLAY (Q) DISTRICT,
AMENDING THE RANCHO PALOS VERDES MUNICIPAL
CODE AND DECLARING THE URGENCY THEREOF.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES
DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The first paragraph of Section 17.46.080 of Chapter 17.46 of Title 17
of the Rancho Palos Verdes Municipal Code is hereby amended by amending the last
sentence thereof to read as follows:
"The written statement shall be filed with the director by October 3, 1997."
Section 2. Urgency Findings. Chapter 17.46 contains provisions by which the
majority of non-conforming uses and structures that were legal as of February 1, 1997,
could be registered with the City's Department of Planning, Building and Code
Enforcement so that these uses and structures could continue in perpetuity. The
deadline by which the non-conformity statements must be filed with the City was July
15, 1997.
Despite that the adoption of the revisions to the City's Development Code,
which included Chapter 17.46, was well-publicized in the City, and despite that the City
published notice of the deadline to submit non-conformity statements in the newspaper
and on the cable television reader board and sent courtesy notices regarding the
deadline to the Peninsula Horsemen's Association, the homeowners' associations
within the equestrian overlay control districts and to all persons who had expressed an
interest in the revisions to the Chapter of the Code containing the Equestrian Overlay
Control District, only a few non-conformity statements have been received by the City.
Thus, many individuals owning properties within the Equestrian Overlay District that
contain certain non-conforming uses or structures have not availed themselves of the
opportunity to submit non-conformity statements to the City. The City Council finds that
it is beneficial to the rights of individuals owning properties within the Equestrian
Overlay Control District to extend the deadline to file non-conformity statements to
October 3, 1997.
Accordingly, the City Council finds that it is necessary for this ordinance
to become effective immediately so that the deadline will be extended which will
preserve the public health, safety and welfare. Based on these facts constituting the
urgency, and passed by a four-fifths vote of this City Council, this Ordinance is adopted
immediately upon introduction pursuant to Government Code Section 36934 and shall
take effect immediately upon its adoption pursuant to Government Code Section
36937(b).
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED this fifteenth day of July, 1997.
