A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OE ZONING ADJUSTMENTS OF THE CITY OF
HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, GRANTING A VARIANCE ON PROPERTY LOCATED
AT 3335 HIGHLAND, HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA.
WHEREAS, the Board of Zoning Adjustments of the City of
Hermosa Beach, at a public hearing held on September 19, 1983,
in the Council Chambers of the City Hall, considered the request
of John & Lynn Carroll for permission to maintain a nonconforming
distance of 3.1 ft. with a first and second story addition, in
lieu of the 6 ft. required between the main building and a
detached garage, for property legally described as Lot 18,
Block 119, Shakespeare Tract;
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the following facts
were presented for consideration: the property is located in the
R-2 zone, medium density residential; lot area is 3318.78 sq. ft.;
existing and proposed lot density is 13.12 du/ac; existing lot
coverage is 38% and proposed is 44%; existing square footage is
1692 sq. ft. and proposed square footage of addition is 409 sq.

WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the applicant was
present to answer questions;
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, no one appeared to

WHEREAS, after due consideration, it is the opinion of
the Board of Zoning Adjustments that the variance request is

variance by only a small amount and does not otherwise change the
building.
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 because a reasonable
expansion of this house enjoyed by others in the same vicinity
and zone would necessitate that this variance be grantedo
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 there is no apparent effect of any sort on the
public welfare and no input from City staff to the contrary.
4 . That the granting of such variance will not adversely affect
the comprehensive General Plan because the use of the property is
not changed under the General Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that in view of the abov
findings of fact, the Board of Zoning Adjustments of the City of
Hermosa Beach, California, at a regular meeting held on the 19th
day of September, 1983, acted to grant this variance by the
following vote:
