RESOLUTION B.Z.A. 154-397
A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENTS OF THE CITY OF
HERMOSA BEACH DENYING A VARIANCE REQUEST ON PROPERTY LOCATED AT
625 LOMA DRIVE, HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA.
WHEREAS, the Board of Zoning Adjustments of the City of Hermosa Beach,
at a public hearing held on February 2, 1981 in the Council Chambers
of the City Hall, considered the request of Mr. and Mrs. Craig Sherman
for permission (1) to construct two single family dwellings on an R-2
lot; (2) to be allowed a three-story building; and (3) to be allowed
a 2 ft. distance between buildings; on property known as Lot 6, Block
"G", Tract 1686; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the following facts were presented
for consideration; that the R-2 zone permits a single two-family dwel-
ling only; that the R-2 zone has a two-story height limit and requires
a minimum distance between buildings of 6 ft.; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the applicant's representative stated
that the required distance between buildings is met with the exception
of a stairway; that separating the two buildings provides a more use-
ful play area than open area in front and back of the buildings; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the applicant testified that he needs
the third story to provide a home large enough for his family and feels
it meets the intent of the code since it falls within the allowable
height limit; 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 requests are not justified for the
following reason: That no special or extraordinary circumstances can
be found for the granting of the th~ee requests;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that in view of the above finding of
fact, the Board of Zoning Adjustments does hereby deny the requests by
the following vote:
