RESOLUTION P.C. 91-18
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA
BEACH, CALIFORNIA, TO INTERPRET THE SETBACK REQUIREMENTS FOR A
"HALF-LOT" IN THE R-3 ZONE, PURSUANT TO SECTION 1101 OF THE
ZONING ORDINANCE PERTAINING TO AMBIGUITIES IN THE CODE, LOCATED
AT 517 HERMOSA AVENUE, AND LEGALLY DESCRIBED AS THE NORTHERLY
47.5 FEET OF LOT 22, BLOCK 6, HERMOSA BEACH TRACT
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a hearing on February
5, 1991, to interpret the setback requirements for a half-lot in
the R-3 zone and made the following findings:
A. The subject half-lot, because of its unusual characteristics,
does not fit into the definitions and standards of the zoning
ordinance to enable staff to determine the applicable
setback;
B. The narrow side of the lot fronts on an alley, 6th Court, and
the longer side on Hermosa Avenue, and the zoning map does
not indicate what the front setback would be from either
side;
C. For consistency with surrounding lots it is most appropriate
to consider to the alley frontage the front, and to use alley
setback requirements, and thus to consider the Hermosa Avenue
frontage the side yard;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission
of the City of Hermosa Beach, California does hereby interpret
that the setbacks for the subject lot shall be as follows:
1. Front Yard: the front yard shal 1 be the 6th Court frontage
and shall be subject to a setback requirement of three (3)
feet from the ground floor and one (1) foot for the second
floor and above;
