WHEREAS, the Board of Zoning Adjustments of the City of Hermosa Beach, at a public hear-
ing held on March 6, 1978, in the Council Chambers of the City Hall, considered the
request of Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Malone for approval to encroach into the front yard from
the building to the front property line with a first story deck, a second story deck
with supporting posts, and a roof extension, on property known as Lot 20, Block 116,
Shakespeare Tract; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the following facts were presented for consideration;
that at the time this property was developed, it was zoned R-2 with a front setback
requirement of 4 ft.; that one year ago the property was downzoned to R-1 with a front
setback of 7 ft.; that if this variance is approved, the applicant must then obtain
approval from the City Council for the encroachment over public right-of-way at the
first floor, second floor and roof levels; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, the applicant stated that there are other structures
in the neighborhood extending to the property line including one now under construction,
and there is one extending into city property; that he has a letter from the Building
Department stating the existing front door is not per code, although legal, as it
exits to the side yard with a four-foot drop outside the door; that the proposed
addition would change the entrance to the front; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, ntvone 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 not justified because the Board cannot make the four
required findings;
