4. Waiver of off - street parking for dwelling unit.
5. I purchased this home about three years ago and at the time of
purchase, the garage had been made into a bedroom with built -in
bunk beds, clothes closet, cupboards, toilet and shower. We
have used this room for our son's room and as the needed third
bedroom. This door is completely deteriorated and needs to be
replaced to make the room weatherproof and the front of the
house presentable and conform to the surrounding homes in the
area.
6. Discussion: Note findings
7. The Committee upon their investigation of this property found
the garage converted into living quarters and the garage door
sealed without a Building Permit being secured for the alter-
ation. The Commission does not favor legalizing a violation
such as this. It was found in this particular neighborhood
that approximately six other garages had been converted into
living quarters.
8. On motion of Commissioner Rudd, seconded by Comm. Lind,
Variance #381 was DENIED by the following roll call vote, to

6. DISCUSSION: The applicant was present and in a discussion with
the Commission advised that the only possible
way to place three garages on this 30' lot would
be to have a variance of 21. She was.advised by
the Commission that side yard.violations already
existed on property adjacent to hers and in
order to maintain light and air circulation, it
would be necessary that the required setbacks be
maintained..

a similar request was.denied a few years ago and
further .found that in view of the existing vio-
lations as set forth above, the application

existed prior to the purchase. He further
stated that he had been requested.by -the City Attorney
not to use the apartments for dwelling purposes
because of the lack of garage spaces. He complied
with the instructions of the City Attorney's office
but has found it impossible to rent the second
floor area for professional offices or -other uses.
which do not require parking spaces.
7. FINDINGS:. The Committee in their report to the Commission
set forth that the double garage which was for the
purpose of parking spaces for the dwelling units
in this building had been e*closed some time during
1948 without a building permit. The Commission
does not wish to go on record as legalizing a
violation of the zoning code and further, because
of the critical parking situation on Balboa Island'
it was felt that the application should be denied.

for this area was desirable in view of the fact
that the old jail house would be removed. This
new development would be an improvement to the
area. A recommendation of approval of the
variance request was made subject to the con-
dition that the final working plans be approved
by the Architectural Control Committee.

Use Permit #338 &
Variance #381 (cant)
The protestors stated, among other things, the following:
1. The proposed apartment house will either destroy or
seriously impair the view of_ property owners on both -
sides of streets from two blocks West of Fernleaf. along.
Ocean Blvd. and Bayview to Heliotrope Avenue and on
both sides of Ocean Blvd. from two blocks West of Dahlia
to Heliotrope.
2. We believe the height limit of buildings was inserted in
the zoning ordinance for the protection of all the
people and should not be waived just because it would be
to the advantage, financial or otherwise;, of some
individual property owner or builder.
3. The waiving of the height limit in this matter would set
a precedent along the ocean front. Other persons could or
would apply for waivers and why should they not be given
the same consideration.
4. The slope up Fernleaf Avenue from Bayside Drive is
inadequate for the present traffic. Every teenager who
owns a car seems to consider it a cha:llenge. This new
building will bound to increase this.
On motion of Commissioner Copelin, seconded by Comm. Reed, and
carried, the hearings on these two applications were closed.
-
FINDINGS Under Section 9106.31 of the Zoning Ordinance, a
variance request may be submitted to the Planning
Commission if it is shown that there are exceptional
or extraordinary circumstances applying to the land .
which do not apply generally to the land area in
the vicinity.
This lot is of unusual size and shape composed of
some 5+,000 square feet, bounded by buffs or cliffs
on three sides. The topography and contour of the
land present a difficult building problem.
Under the Zoning Ordinance, which requires 17000
sq. ft. of building site area per living unit in an
R -3 District, the applicant could apply for 54 units.;
The proposed dwelling will have approximately 19700
sq. ft. of building site area for each unit, two
parking spaces for each unit, and 19 spaces for
guest parking.
Under the Subdivision Ordinance,, this parcel could
be legally subdivided into 10 lots with three units
being permitted on each lot.

Use Permit #338 &
Variance #391 (con't)
After careful consideration of the oral and written
evidence presented by the applicant and protestors and
for the aforesaid reasons as previously set forth,
the Planning Commission finds and determines that,
1. There are exceptional or extraordinary.circumstances
applying to the land and proposed building which
circumstances or conditions do not apply gener-
ally to land or buildings in the same district.
2. The granting of the application is necessary
for preservation and enjoyment of substantial
property rights of the petitioner.
3. The granting of this Use Permit and Variance
Application would not adversely affect or be
detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals,
comfort and general welfare of persons residing
in the neighborhood of such proposed use or be
detrimental or injurious to the property and
improvements in the neighborhood or to the
general welfare of the City.
