PC RES 1990-055P.C. RESOLUTION NO. 90-55
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES APPROVING CONDITIONAL
USE PERMIT NO. 153 REVISION FOR AN INCREASE IN
THE CANOPY HEIGHT AT 31186 HAWTHORNE BLVD.
WHEREAS, Unocal has requested a Conditional Use Permit
Revision for the correct overall canopy height of 18'-8" at
31186 Hawthorne Blvd.; and
WHEREAS, after notice pursuant to the Development Code,
a public hearing was held by the Planning Commission on
Tuesday, October 23, 1990, at which time all interested
parties were given the opportunity to give testimony 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 the subject site is adequate in size and
shape to accommodate the intended use. The use has existed
since prior to the City's incorporation and is consistent
with the center's zoning classification.
Section 2: That the site is serviced by Hawthorne Blvd.
and Palos Verdes Drive West whose capacity is adequate to
serve the site and the existing use.
Section 3: That there will be no significant adverse
effects on adjacent properties in approving the request for
the increase in the canopy's clearance. View analyses were
performed from surrounding residential properties and it was
found that the lines of site towards the ocean and Catalina
Island from these properties were well above the existing
canopy.
Section 4: That the approval of Conditional Use Permit
No. 153 Revision will not be contrary to the objectives of
the General Plan in that the existing use complies with the
General Plan and zoning land use designations.
Section 5: For the foregoing reasons and based on
information and findings in the Staff Report, the Planning
Commission of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes does hereby
approve Conditional Use Permit No. 153 Revision 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.
