A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES GRANTING
VARIANCE NO. 50
WHEREAS, Variance No. 50 has been filed, which would allow
a fence/wall combination within the front yard setback to exceed
the allowable height at 28018 San Nicolas Drive, which is in an
RS-4 zoning district; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed this matter
at a public hearing held on August 12, 1980 , 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 there are exceptional or extraordinary
circumstances or conditions applicable to the property, or to
the intended use of the property, which do not apply generally
to other properties in the same zoning district because the
property owner is denied the primary use of the garage due to the
high slope of the driveway.
Section 2. That the variance is necessary for the preser-
vation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant
which is possessed by other property owners under like conditions
in the same zoning district. The wall/rail combination will allow
the property owner to alter the driveway access to permit adequate
entrance into the garage.
Section 3. That the granting of the variance will benefit the
public welfare by allowing for off-street parking and improvement
to the traffic circulation on San Nicolas Drive.
Section 4 . That the granting of such a variance will not be
contrary to the objectives of the General Plan. The wall/rail
combination will insure reasonable access to the garage by allowing
grading to alter the driveway slope.
Section 5. For the foregoing reasons, the Planning Commission
of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes hereby approves Variance No. 50.
APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 12th day of August, 1980.
