PC RES 1987-004 RESOLUTION P.C. NO. 87 - 4
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES APPROVING VARIANCE NO. 151
WHEREAS, the applicant, Fred Arkenburg, has requested approval of
Variance No. 151 for reduced parking standards for a 6,936 square foot commercial
retail building located at 29409 Western Avenue; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes
conducted a public hearing for this application on January 13, 1987 at which
time all interested parties were given an opportunity to testify 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 circumstances and conditions
applicable to the subject property which do not generally apply to other
properties in the same zoning district, since less restrictive parking standards
have been adopted for an adjacent commercial area with the same zoning
classification and similar uses and the same standard is expected to be adopted
for Specific Plan IV where the subject property is located.
Section 2: That the variance is necessary for the preservation and
enjoyment of a substantial property right, which right is enjoyed by other
property owners under like conditions in the same zoning district, in that
adjacent properties in Specific Plan III are allowed to use the smaller standard
parking stall dimensions.
Section 3: That the granting of the variance will not be materially
detrimental to the public welfare, or injurious to property and improvements
in the area, since the Conditions of Approval in Exhibit "A" will mitigate
potential impacts.
Section 4: That the granting of the variance will not be contrary
to the objectives of the General Plan.
Section 5: For the foregoing reasons, the Planning Commission of
the City of Rancho Palos Verdes does hereby approve Variance No. 151 subject
to the conditions contained in Exhibit "A", attached hereto and made a part
hereof, which are necessary to preserve the public health, safety and general
welfare in the area.
APPROVED and ADOPTED January 13, 1987.
