339 PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY
WAIVER OF PARKING REQUIREMENTS
A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENTS OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH,
TO GRANT A VARIANCE TO WAIVE PARKING REQUIREMENTS FOR APPROXIMATELY 1400 SQ.
FT. OF FLOOR AREA WHICH IS BEING CONVERTED FROM RESIDENTIAL USE INTO COMMER-
CIAL USE ON SECOND FLOOR OF A BUILDING WHICH HAS COMMERCIAL USE ON FIRST
FLOOR AND WHICH IS LOCATED IN A C-3 ZONE.
THE BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENTS OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
WHEREAS, there was filed with this Board under the provisions of Ordinance N. S. 154, an
application for a variance by Jerome Weinberg upon property o.vned by applicant and locaw
ted at 339 Pacific Coast Highway, legally described as the easterly 70 1 of Lot 23, Walter
Ransom Co.1 s Venable Place Tract, Hermosa Beach, California, and
WHEREAS, the Board of Zoning Adjustments of the City of Hermosa Beach did on July 7, 1971,
conduct a pub I ic hearing to consider this application for a variance to waive parking
requirements for approximately 1400 sq. ft. of floor area which is being converted from
residential use into commercial use on second floor of a building which has commercial
use on first floor and which is located in a C-3 zone, and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, there was presented written and oral testimony on the
property described as follows: Easterly 70 1 of Lot 23, Walter Ransom Co.1 s Venable
Place tract, known as 339 Pacific Coast Highway,
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that in view of the findings at said hearing, the Board
of Zoning Adjustments does hereby grant this variance for the following reasons:
1. There is an exceptional circumstance applicable to this property, since
the property is presently a mixed use, and the residential on the upper
floor is a nonconforming use which does not furnish any parking other
than street parking. The conversion to commercial use would therefore
be the appropriate use for this zone.
2. Granting this variance would not be materially detrimental to the pubt ic
welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity.
3. Granting of this variance would not adversely affect the comprehensive
genera 1 pl an.
4. Granting of this variance would substantially fulfill the required show-
ing for variance since other property owners in the vicinity enjoy full
commercial use of their property, and to deny the variance on the basis
of the parking requirement would leave the property as a mixed use, with
the nonconforming residential use presently existing, and no parking
facilities, other than street parking.
5. There is a public parking lot within a block of the structure, which
could be used to furnish the necessary parking.
The foregoing Resolution BZA 154-47 was adopted by the Board of Zoning Adjustments at
a regular meeting held July 7, 1971, by the following vote:
AYES: Comm. Alton, Basila, Ostermann, Schubert, Chairman Wil Iiams
NOES: None
