P.C.RESOLUTION NO.00-50
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A
250 SQUARE FOOT EXPANSION AND REMODEL TO AN
EXISTING TWO DWELLING UNIT DEVELOPMENT AT 63
8TH STREET
The Planning Commission of the City of Hermosa Beach does hereby resolve and order as
follows:
Section 1. An application was filed by Brice Torres, owner of real property located at 63
8th Street, requesting a 250 square foot expansion and remodel to an existing nonconforming two
dwelling unit development, pursuant to Chapter 17.44 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a hearing to consider the application on
August 15, 2000, at which testimony and evidence, both written and oral, were presented to and
considered by the Planning Commission.
Section 3. Based on the evidence received at the hearing, the Planning Commission makes
the following factual findings:
1. The applicant is proposing a 250 square foot expansion while maintaining a less than
required garage setback, side -yard setback, front yard setback and parking.
Section 4. Based on the foregoing factual findings, the Planning Commission makes the
following findings:
1. The existing nonconformities are not severe or unusual in relation to the amount of
expansion.
2. The scale of the proposed expansion is reasonable, and is consistent with planning and
zoning requirements for the R-2 zone and does not warrant requiring the current
nonconforming garage, side and front yard setbacks and number of parking spaces into
conformance;
3. Approval of the expansion/remodel is consistent with the intent and goals of Chapter 17.44
of the Zoning Ordinance.

involving any further expansion shall be reviewed and may be approved by the
Community Development Director.

Permits have been obtained. The applicant may apply for an extension of time to
the Planning Commission prior to the date of expiration.
