NEGATIVE DECLARATION FOR ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
NO, 600 AND APPROVING VESTING TENTATIVE TRACT MAP
NO. 49067, FOR TEN SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL LOTS
AND FOUR COMMON AREA OPEN SPACE LOTS LOCATED
WITHIN THE PORTUGUESE BEND CLUB.
WHEREAS, Transamerica Realty Services, Inc. has requested
approval of Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 49067 for the
creation of f if teen (15 ) single family residential lots and three
(3) common area open space lots on an 18.33 acre site located
within the Portuguese Bend Club, pursuant to the Residential
Planned Development provisions of the City's Development Code;
and
WHEREAS, A Draft Negative Declaration was prepared and
circulated for at least 30 days from August 21, 1991 to September
23, 1991 in order to receive written comments on the adequacy of
the document from responsible agencies and the public; and
WHEREAS, after notice issued pursuant to the provisions of
the City Development Code, the Planning Commission held a public
hearing on the environmental review of the project applications
on November 12, 1991 and held public hearings on the project on
November 26, 1991 and January 14, February 11, and March 4, 1992,
at which time all interested parties were given an opportunity to
be heard and present evidence; and
WHEREAS, on March 19, 1992, the Planning Commission adopted
P.C. Resolution No. 92 -17 recommending certification of the
Mitigated Negative Declaration and approval of ten (10)
residential lots and four (4) common area open space lots as part
of Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 49067 to the City Council; and
WHEREAS, on April 21, 1992, the City Council of the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes held a public hearing, at which time all
interested parties were given an opportunity to be heard and
present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS
VERDES DOES HEREBY FIND, DETERMINE, AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: That the Mitigated Negative Declaration
identifies as potential significant environmental impacts the
effect of the original fifteen (15) residential lot tract map on
earth, water, land use, and aesthetics. Changes or alternations
have been required in, or incorporated into the revised ten (10)
residential lot tract map design which avoid or substantially
lessen these impacts to an insignificant level.
Section 2: That a mitigation monitoring program has been
prepared for the proposed project to ensure that the mitigation
measures incorporated into the project will be properly
implemented. Exhibit "A ".hereto, contains the mitigation
monitoring program reviewed by the City Council, pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act and which is incorporated
herein by reference.
Section 3: That the creation of ten (10) single family
residential lots, four (4) common area open space lots and
related improvements is consistent with the type of land use and
density identified in the City's General Plan and Coastal
Specific Plan.
Section 4: That the creation of ten (10) single family
residential lots, as conditioned, is consistent with the City's
Development Code for projects within the RS -5 zoning district
under a Residential Planned Development, with the provision to
maintain at least 30% of the subject property as common area open
space. In addition, the deletion of five (5) lots from the
original submittal increased the average size and dimensions of
the residential lots and protected public views over the site.
Section 5: That the use of the lots shall be for single
family residential dwelling units, common open space and related
improvements, which is compatible with the objectives, policies,
programs, and land use specified in the General Plan and Coastal
Specific Plan.
Section 6: That the subject property is physically suitable
to accommodate Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 49067, as
conditioned, in terms of design and density and will not result
in substantial environmental damage based on consideration of
information contained in the project's Final Mitigated Negative
Declaration, implementation of mitigation measures which have
been incorporated into the conditions of approval and compliance
with the City's Development Code and General Plan.
Resolution No, 92 -49
Page 2 of 5
Section 7: That the creation of the lots, single family
residential dwelling units and associated improvements will not
be materially detrimental to property values, jeopardize,
endanger or otherwise constitute a menace to the surrounding
area, since physical improvements, dedications and maintenance
agreements are required.
Section 8: That the division and development of the
property will not unreasonably interfere with the free and
complete exercise of the public entity and /or public utility
rights -of -way and or easements within the tract.
Section 9: That the discharge of sewage from this land
division into the sewer system will not violate the requirements
of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board pursuant
to Division 7 (commencing with section 13000 of the Water Code).
Section 10: That the design of the subdivision and the type
of improvements associated with it are not likely to cause
serious public health problems.
Section 11: That the vesting tentative tract map design
provides for future passive or natural heating or cooling
opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible.
Section 12: That dedications required by local ordinance
are shown on the vesting tentative map and /or are set forth in
the conditions of approval attached hereto in Exhibits "B" and
VI CII
Section 13: That the vesting tentative tract map does not
propose to divide land which is subject to a contract entered
into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965.
Section 14: That the City considered the effect of approval
of the subdivision on the housing needs of the region in which
the City is situated and balanced these needs against the public
service needs of its residents and available fiscal and
environmental resources.
Section 15: That the subject use, as conditioned, mitigates
or reduces significant adverse effects to adjacent properties or
the permitted uses thereof. Further, the Planning Commission
recommended that the City Council declare the Mitigated Negative
Declaration certified per P.C. Resolution No. 92 -17 in compliance
with City and States guidelines and that the Planning Commission
reviewed and considered the contents of the Mitigated Negative
Declaration in reaching its decision on the project.
Resolution No, 92 -49
Page 3 of 5
Section 16: That all of the required mitigation measures
are hereby incorporated into the_. conditions of approval for the
vesting tentative tract map
Section 17: That the preparation of an environmental impact
report was not necessary for this project and is not required by
the City's General Plan, because no substantial evidence has been
presented which demonstrates that the project will have a
significant effect on the environment. To the contrary, the
evidence in the record demonstrates that the site has been disked
frequently which has eliminated the natural vegetation which
otherwise would have been present on this site. Further, the
City Council interprets Policy No. 16 of the General Plan in
light of the definition in the General Plan of the term
environmental impact report as "a document which discusses the
impact that a particular development will have on the surrounding
environment." Thus since there is no substantial evidence which
has been presented demonstrating that this project will have a
significant effect on the environment, the environmental
assessment which is necessary in this case is an initial study
and a mitigated negative declaration. This interpretation is
consistent with the California Environmental Quality Act and
Section 15162 and 15063 of the California Code of Regulations.
Section 18: For the foregoing reasons and based on
information and findings included in the Mitigated Negative
Declaration, Staff Reports, minutes, records of proceeding, and
evidence presented at the public hearings, the City Council of
the City of Rancho Palos Verdes hereby certifies the Mitigated
Negative Declaration for Environmental Assessment No. 600 and
approves Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 49067, subject to the
attached conditions contained in Exhibits "B ", "C", and "D" which
are necessary to protect the public health, safety, and general
welfare in the area.

III. Land Use /Aesthetics
(Environmental Assessment No. 600, p. 3)
Description of Adverse Impacts
The development of the subject property with ten residential
homes will result in an alteration of the present land use
which is vacant, undeveloped land. However, both the General
Plan and Coastal Specific Plan indicate that residential
activity is the most compatible use for the buildable vacant
land within this region. Even though the General Plan and
the Coastal Specific Plan do not indicate protected viewing
corridors or vistas through the site, views of Catalina
Island and the Pacific Ocean exist nonetheless. Grading,
structure height and mass limitation, and other control
methods will minimize and /or eliminate potential view
impairment.
Mitigation Measures
1) Limit structure heights and massing on all residential
lots to protect views form adjacent homes and Palos
Verdes Drive South

PART 1
INTRODUCTION AND DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
These Special Rules embody the review procedures and design
guidelines which an Owner must follow in choosing to develop a
residence in Tract 49067.
Tract 49067 is a development of ten residential lots located
within the privately guarded gate community of the Portuguese
Bend Club. This tract also includes Lot 11, which is a common
area lot facing Palos Verdes Drive South.
Because Tract 49067 is included in the Portuguese Bend Club, it
is governed both by a set of master Conditions, Covenants, and
Restrictions (CC &Rs) written and recorded for the entire
Portuguese Bend Club, as well as a Supplemental Declaration
specific to the eleven lots comprising Tract 49067 (the latter
controlling items such as maximum house size, required
articulation and other technical conditions). As such, Tract
49067 is often cross - referenced as "Phase II" of the Portuguese
Bend Club.
Spanish Colonial Stylization
The unifying character for the ten residential lots in Tract
49067 is the Spanish Colonial style. This stylization can be
found on the Palos Verdes Peninsula and is the desired
character for the design of Tract 49067.
The Spanish Colonial style can be found at Malaga Cove in Palos
Verdes Estates and in older Southern California communities
such as Santa Barbara and Montecito. Residential examples
demonstrate restrained use of ornament, low - pitched roofs,
thick walls of stone covered by protective stucco, and deeply
recessed doors and windows. Massing of the architectural forms
was varied and modulated; one story to two story transitions
were often treated with elements such as arcades, loggias, and
exterior stairs.
Roofs were generally red clay tiles of the Mission variant
(half- cylinder as opposed to the Spanish "S" tile), while walls
were of off -white plaster. Combined hip and gable forms were
the predominant treatment of the roof.
Partially enclosed patios and courtyard gardens were integrated
into the planning of these residences. Fountains, exterior
stairs, fireplaces, one - and -two story covered porches, and
interesting paving treatments were features common to these
outdoor rooms.
Finally, character details included very small balconies of
wrought iron or timber, wrought iron sconces, hardware, and
railings, stucco, or the decorative vents, and inspired
chimney tops, often with small tiled roofs.
It is this character in both the architecture and the site
planning, that is sought for Tract 49067.

PART 2
DESIGN REVIEW AND APPROVAL PROCESS
16 REVIEW PROCEDURES
There are two steps in securing approval from the
Portuguese bend Club Homeowner's Association Architectural
Committee (AC) for designs of residences which Tract
49067. There are (1) the Preliminary Plan Review and (2)
the Final Plan Review.
The Preliminary Plan Review provides the AC with its
first opportunity to review the initial design of a
residence. At this stage, the AC will focus on
architectural form and fundamental relationships between
the residence and the surrounding neighbors within Tract
49067. Architectural design shall be consistent with the
Spanish Colonial theme as explained in these Special
Rules. The AC will respond in writing to the applicant's
preliminary plans within sixty (60) days of submittal of a
complete package.
The Final Plan Review also the AC to compare the
construction documents for the residence to the original
approval (s) granted by the Preliminary Plan Review. The
AC will respond in writing to the applicant's Final Plans
within sixty (60) days of submittal. Changes which are
materially different from that already approved in the
Preliminary Plan Review will require resubmittal of plans
and fees to the AC for approval.
2. APPROVALS
Approval or disapproval by the Architectural Committee
(AC) of submitted plans or materials shall be in writing
and shall be mailed or delivered to the Owner or his
representative ( "Applicant ") within the prescribed period
of time described herein. A copy of all the decisions
shall be kept by the AC. Approval by AC shall not be
deemed to be approval by the City.
When the AC approval has been secured for Preliminary
Plans and Final Plans, it is the responsibility of the
applicant to secure a building, grading, and other permits
by the City or other regulatory agencies as necessary for
the construction of the residence, including any other
required legal filings, notices or other actions to
comply with the Supplemental Declaration.
Any changes required or requested by the City which have
not been approved by the AC must be returned to the AC for
review and final approval prior to the issuance of any
construction permits by regulatory agencies. All
approvals of plans by the AC shall be valid for one year
from the date of approval. If construction is not started
before the expiration of this period, plans must be
resubmitted.
Resolution No. 92 -49 & 50
Portuguese Bend Club, Tract No. 49067
Page 3
May 19, 1992
Landscape construction improvements, as approved by the
AC, shall be completedwithin four ( 4 ) months from the
issuance of the "Certificate of occupancy" by the City
with a two (2) month time extension allowance in case of
hardships that do not allow for timely completion of
landscape construction. The applicant shall provide the
AC with a copy of the "Certificate of Occupancy" within
ten (10 ) days of issuance*
3. GENERAL SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS
Same as City's requirements for appropriate development
applications.
PART 3
DESIGN GUIDELINES
These Special Rules have been adopted by the Architectural
Committee of the Portuguese Bend Club Homeowner's Association.
Any condition, material or procedure not defined within the
Supplemental Declaration and these Special Rules shall become a
matter of judgement on the part of the Architectural Committee
(AC)O
The architectural design character of Tract 49067 shall be the
Spanish Colonial theme as described in these Special Rules.
SPECIAL FEATURES
The character and quality of each residence will rely upon
certain features that have been embraced by this development.
Those features should be carefully reviewed by each applicant
and be integrated into the site and house design.
The most important site feature required of each Lot is the
creation of a courtyard integrated with the house design. The
courtyard is envisioned as not only a circulation space for
pedestrians and automobiles, but also as an outdoor room
capable of bringing light and air to interior spaces, serving
as a stage for landscape and entertaining, and also to reduce
the mass and bulk of individual residences.
As an outdoor room, the treatment of the courtyard will be
closely scrutinized by the Architectural Committee. The degree
of integration of landscaping within the courtyard will
be important to the Architectural Committee. Softening wall
surfaces with landscape materials, and inclusion of fountains
and decorative sconces are encouraged. Creative pavement
treatments such as cobblestones, irregular paving stones, and
patterned concrete are highly encouraged, while large and
uninterrupted areas of concrete will be discouraged.
Resolution No. 92 -49 & 50
Portuguese Bend Club, Tract No. 49067
Page 4
May .19,,:1992
To enhance the importance of the courtyard, driveways may have
an alternative paving treatment. Decomposed granite, gravel,
turf paver, as well as the courtyard paving materials, are
encouraged for the driveways. Asphalt paving is prohibited in
driveways and courtyards In Tract 49067.
Architecturally, the design of each residence should modulate
the wall and roof planes to avoid uninterrupted areas of
plaster and tile. Special emphasis should be placed on
projection and recessing walls on all faces of the residence to
create strong shadows and obvious changes in wall planes.
Required second story setback on the front, rear, and sides are
sides are designed to reduce the apparent bulk of each
residence. The desired result for each residence is an
integrated design emphasizing the importance of the courtyard
as a design feature of each residence.
DESIGN GUIDELINES
COURTYARD
Lots 2, 31 41 51 61 7, 8, and 9 shall incorporate one
courtyard and Lots 1 and 10 shall incorporate two (2)
courtyards as required and defined by the Supplemental
Declaration. The courtyards shall be treated as an
integral part of the overall planning of the residence and
not as an accessory for the singular purpose of vehicular
turnaround.
The courtyard(s) should be viewed as an outdoor room with
multi - purpose uses; they may be outdoor entertaining
areas, entry courts and active recreation areas. Elements
such as fireplaces, fountains, and specimen plant
materials are encouraged.
The courtyard(s) may be physically defined by house walls,
arbors, loggias, garages, garden walls, or landscaping.
The courtyard(s), when used in conjunction with vehicular
circulation, should provide adequate maneuvering space for
automobiles.
Refer to "Special Features" for courtyard pavement
materials.
DRIVEWAYS
The special character of the Portuguese Bend Club has
influenced the design of the driveways of each Lot.
Driveways shall be purposely narrow to complement the
rural quality of the surrounding Portuguese Bend Club.
Each driveway should be treated with materials which
emphasize textural qualities; several choices include turf
pavers, decomposed granite, gravel, irregular stone
paving, cobblestones, or patterned concrete.
