A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES
APPROVING EXTREME SLOPE PERMIT NO. 3 AT
#4 COACH ROAD.
WHEREAS, JAMES AND CAROL HEWITT have requested an Extreme
Slope Permit to allow a deck to extend 6 feet over an extreme
slope at #4 Coach Road; and
WHEREAS, after notice pursuant to the City's Development
Code, a public hearing was held on November 10, 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 the site cannot reasonably accommodate the
structure in another location not involving an extreme slope due
to limited level yard space available on the property.
Section 2: That the permit will result in no significant
adverse effect on the neighboring properties since the project is
specifically designed to mitigate any visual impacts and avoid
impairment of views.
Section 3: That there will be insignificant disturbance to
the slope as the footings would require minimal excavation on the
slope and the natural 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 reasons, the Planning
Commission of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes hereby approves
Extreme Slope Permit No. 3, subject to the attached condition
marked in Exhibit "A:, which are necessary to protect the public
health, safety, and general welfare of the area.
