A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENTS OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA
BEACH GRANTING A VARIANCE TO ADD TO A PROPERTY WITH NONCONFORMING YARDS
ON PROPERTY LOCATED AT 32 -21ST STREET, HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA.
WHEREAS, the Board of Zoning Adjustments of the City of Hermosa Beach, at a public
hearing held on October 18, 1976, in the Council Chambers of the City Hall, consid-
ered the request of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Bergstrom for permission to be allowed a
second story addition over an existing garage structure with nonconforming yards,
on property known as Portions of Lot 9 and Lot 18, Block 21, Hermosa Beach Tract; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the following facts were presented for consideration;
that the nonconforming condition exists because the original construction was not loc-
ated in the center of the lot; that there appears to be no detrimental effect due to
such construction; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the applicant stated that the lot is pie-shaped and
the sideyard lacks 711 , but not all along the property line; that the existing house
is 1100 sq. ft.; that the adjacent house is forward on the lot so the two are not
close together; that the neighbors and the people on the walk street have signed their
petition; and that they will sign a deed restriction that the property can be sold as
a single family dwelling only; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, a petition with ten signatures of neighboring resi-
dents in favor of the request was submitted; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, no one appeared to speak in opposition to the request;
and
WHEREAS, after due consideration, it is the opinion of the Board of Zoning Adjustments
that the variance request is justified for the following reasons:
1. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions
applicable to the property involved because of the irr~gular shape of
the lot.
2. That such variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of
a substantial property right possessed by other property in the same
vicinity and zone, and denied to the property in question because other
properties on the street share nonconforming setbacks.
3. That the granting of such variance will not be materially detrimental
to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in
such vicinity and zone in which the property is located because it will
not be deterimental to the neighborhood.
4. That the granting of such variance will not adversely affect the compre-
hensive General Plan because it retains conformity to the General Plan
and has no density ramifications.
NOW~ THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that in view of the above findings of fact, the Board
of Zoning Adjustments does hereby grant the variance by the following vote:
AYES: Comms. Schutz, Toth,Chmn. Beard
NOES: None
ABSENT: Comms. Collins, Cummings, Sims
