McGee upon property owned by applicant and located at 1821 Pacific Coast Highway, legally described as Lots 6, 7 and 17, Block 81, Second Addition to Hermosa Beach, California, and WHEREAS, the B'oard of Zoning Adjustments of the City of Hermosa Beach did on November 1, 1971, conduct a public hearing to consider this application for a variance to erect four separate patio fences, approximately seven feet long and five feet high encroaching four feet into ten foot front setback in lieu of permitted three-foot high fence, and WHEREAS, at said public hearing, there was presented written and oral testimony on the property described as follows: Lots 6, 7 and 17, Block 81, Second Addition to Hermosa Beach, known as 1821 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. That there are exceptional circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved in that the apartment house does sit on Pacific Coast Highway and the fences would provide protection and would screen off traffic noise. 2. That such variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right due to the fact that such fences have been granted to other property owners just below this develop- ment on Valley Drive for similar reasons, and that surrounding properties are mainly commercial and, therefore, are developed to the front property line. 3. That the granting of such variance will not be materially detri- mental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such vicinity and zone in which the property is located. 4. That the granting of such variance will not adversely affect the comprehensive general plan. The foregoing Resolution BZA 154-53 was adopted by the Board of Zoning Adjustments at a regular meeting held November 1, 1971, by the following vote: AYES: Corrms.
