A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES APPROVING VARIANCE
NO. 228 FOR A ONE ( 1 ) FOOT INCREASE IN THE MAXIMUM
30 FOOT DOWNSLOPE HEIGHT OF A SINGLE FAMILY
RESIDENCE LOCATED AT 3335 PALO VISTA DRIVE.
WHEREAS, Mr. Darwin Ebinger has requested a Variance for
a one (1 ) foot increase in the maximum 30 foot downslope
height of a single family residence.
WHEREAS, after notice issued pursuant to the provisions
of the Rancho Palos Verdes Development Code, a public hearing
was held on February 14, 1989, 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 and conditions applicable to the property
involved which do not apply generally to other properties in
the same zoning district, in that the subject property is
constrained by unusual topography.
Section 2: That there are special circumstances which
unreasonably restrict the applicant' s ability to develop the
property in conformance with City development regulations, in
that the structure was not constructed in conformance with
the approved plans resulting in a twelve inch increase in the
approved height.
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 will not encroach into the privacy of adjacent
neighbors.
Section 4: That approval of the Variance will not
confer a special privilege on the applicant in relation to
similarly situated property owners in the same zoning
district, in that similar property owners in the same zoning
district would be allowed to construct similar projects.
Section 5: That approval of said Variance is not
contrary to the General Plan.
Section 6 : For the foregoing reasons , the Planning
Commission of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes hereby approves
Variance No . 228 , subject to conditions in Exhibit "A" , for a
one ( 1 ) foot increase in the maximum 30 foot downslope height
of a single family residence located at 3335 Palo Vista Dr.
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED this 14th day of February,
