P.C. RESOLUTION NO. 89-23
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES APPROVING EXTREME
SLOPE PERMIT NO. 13 AT 6404 VIA COLINITA.
WHEREAS, Keith Harter has requested an Extreme Slope Permit
to allow a six foot deck to cantilever over an extreme slope and
to allow the placement of five caissons into the extreme slope
area at 6404 Via Colinita; and
WHEREAS, after notice pursuant to the City's Development
Code, a public hearing was held in April 25, 1989, at which time
all interested parties were given an opportunity to be heard and
present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO
PALOS VERDES DOES HEREBY FIND, DETERMINE AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: That the site cannot reasonably accommodate the
structure in another location not involving a extreme slope due to
limited level yard space on the property.
Section 2: That the permit will result in no significant
adverse effect on the neighboring properties since the project is
designed to mitigate any negative visual impacts and avoid
impairment of views.
Section 3: That there will be insignificant disturbance to
the slope as the project requires minimal excavation on the slope
and the existing grade will be left intact.
Section 4: That the granting of such an approval will not be
contrary to the objectives of the General Plan in that it is
encouraging reasonable development of the property without
impairing the views of neighboring properties or creating any
safety hazards.
Section 5: For the foregoing reason, the Planning Commission
of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes hereby approves Extreme Slope
Permit No. 13, subject to the attached conditions marked in
Exhibit A, which are necessary to protect the public health,
safety and general welfare of the area.
APPROVED, and ADOPTED on May 9, 1989.
