RESOLUTION P.C. NO. 87 - 63
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES APPROVING VARIANCE
NO. 176 FOR A TWO CAR GARAGE AT 28707 MT.
LANGLEY COURT.
WHEREAS, Dan J. Delight has requested a Variance to
allow an addition which encroaches 12 feet into the required
17 foot rear setback from the toe of the slope at 28707 Mt.
Langley Court.
WHEREAS, after notice pursuant to the City's Development
Code, a hearing was held on October 27, 1987, 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 l: That there are exceptional or extraordinary
circumstances or conditions applicable to the property since
the property is at the end of a cul-de-sac which limits on
street parking and many other structures in the neighborhood
have similar reduced setbacks.
Section 2: That a Variance is necessary to preserve or
allow the enjoyment of a substantial property right of the
applicant which is possessed by other property owners under
similar conditions in the same zoning district, since the
setback requirement severely limits any further development
on the lot, although all other Code criteria can be met.
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 in which the property
is located, since the structure will cause no view blockage,
and the addition will exceed the minimum zoning district
setback from the rear property line.
Section 4: That the granting of the Variance will not be
contrary to the objectives of the General Plan, since a
garage is a permitted use in a residential zone and a minimum
2 car garage is required by the Development Code.
Section 5: That as a condition of approval the garage
wall adjacent to the rear property line be structural
designed as a retaining wall.
