At this time, Mayor Waters declared a Public Hearing open on appeal of `D Lindero Investment Company from a decision of the Planning Commission in denying a variance of 3'6" on lots 2, 6, 11, 17, and 22 Block-A, and lots 3 and 6 Block B, and a variance of 4' on lots 4, 7, 9, 13, 14, and 23 Block A, and lots 1, 7, 8, and 10 Block B, of Tract No. 138. 1) City Clerk Fitzpatrick read the following report of the City Planning Commission regarding the denial of the variances for the Southwood Subdivision: "This variance is requested on lots 2, 4, 6, 7, 9, 11, 13, 14, 17, 22, and 23 of Block A and 1, 3, 6, 7, 8, 10 of Block B, Tract 138 Southwood Subdivision. The request is to allow overhanging eaves, to encroach into the required front yards of these lots. Recognizing the importance of this type of architectural feature in the design of housing, as a means of breaking up the monotony of tract development, the planning commission has adopted a resolution of policy, allowing cornices, eaves, and canopies to project into the required front yard set back a maximum of 24 inches. 395 The request of Lindero Investment Company is for variances in excess of the above amount by an additional 24 inches, on 10 dwelling units and 18 inches on 7 other units. The commission has denied this type of request in the past and has required that the eaves be cut back to meet Planning Commission Policy as stated above. In order to grant any variance, Section 9200.17 (E)(2) of the Municipal Code requires that the Commission findings be that there are exceptional and extraordinary circumstances which apply only to the property involved. That the granting of the request is necessary for the preservation of the applicants property rights and that the granting of the request will not have a detrimental effect on the general welfare of the neighborhood and the Community as a whole. The commission cannot approve a variance without an affirmative finding on all three items as required above. In this particular application, the planning commission has found that: I. There are no exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applying to the land, building or use referred to in the application, which do not apply generally to land, buildings, or uses in the same district. 3 t r U-L .5 IybU 90 2.. The granting of the variance is not necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights of the applicant. 3. Any hardship which the applicant may feel imposed upon him was created by his own acts, and he is not entitled to relief. The applicant is the subdivider and developer of the land involved and has therefore had complete control of the design of the lands as well as the design of the structures upon the land. 4. The applicant has not proved that the ordinance.works a hardship on his property so that it would be difficult or impossible to construct a conforming use. It is the opinion of the Commission that a conforming use can be built on this property as evidenced by the fact that the applicant has constructed dwellings on properties with similar conditions adjacent to these properties . included in the request. 5. Work in violation of the ordinance was completed prior to the request and the commission feels that this is not properly considered as::a hardship which would justify the granting of a variance. 6. A variance in this particular case is not necessary to promote and protect the health, safety and general welfare of the neighborhood or community. 7. The variance if granted would be detrimental to the neighborhood .and the City of San Luis Obispo due to the fact that the granting .of this variance would amount to a special privilege not enjoyed by other properties in like zones." Mr. Morgan Flagg appeared before the City Council on behalf of his appeal from the decision of the Planning Commission, and stated that he had a problem in this matter, and was sure that any omis §ion was made innocently, by both his firm and the City Building Department. Further, that he had the plans checked by the City and at that time, no one had called his attention to any violation of overhanging roofs, and the violations were not caught until after the buildings had been built, and for this reason he was requesting a variance 1 to allow the encroachment of the overhang onto the front set back, as the removal of the overhang would take away from the appearance of the buildings, damage them financially, and might affect his FHA and VA committments. Mayor Waters asked Mr. Flagg to explain to the City Council the new application for a variance of one foot on the front set back line, as 17 buildings are set back 19' instead of 20' as required by Ordinance. Mr. Flagg explained that his surveying crew had been granted permission by the City Engineer to temporarily offset stakes 1' onto the sidewalk so they would not be destroyed during construction. During construction the foundation contractor assumed the offset points were at the property line thus setting the building one foot too close to the street. Mr. Romero, City Engineer, explained for the City Council the violations and location of all properties in violation, both the encroachment of 1' of the foundations, and also the houses with encroachment of overhang. At this time the City Council.discussed the.possibility of advisability of the City Council discussing both violations of the building set backs and the overhangs, or whether they should be decided separately, as the Planning Commission had not as yet received the report of the Board of Adjustments relative to the 19' front yard set back violation. City Attorney Houser explained for the City Council the requirements of the City Ordinance relative to the granting of variances and the procedure necessary for granting them. Mr. Burt Walter, Assistant Building Inspector, stated that the buildings in the subdivision were still under construction when the builder was notified that the eaves were in violation, in fact, he stated that he believed that the roofs were not even started when Mr. Flagg was notified of the eave overhang violations. JUL D iytiu -11_F 9.7 City Engineer Romero stated to the City Council that Mr. Flagg had full knowledge of the violation of the encroachment of the eaves while still in the construction state, but had elected to proceed on the assumption that a variance would be granted. Mr. Robert Carpenter, Chairman of the City Planning Commission, appeared before the City Council and stated the Planning Commission feeling that the violation had been continued after being brought to Mr. Flagg's attention, and the Planning Commission could find no grounds for granting a variance. Mr. Carpenter further reported that in two other recent instances, violations of the same type were corrected by having the eaves cut back to conform with City Ordinance. ' Mr. Whitlock Jones, respective purchaser of one of the homes in violation appeared before the City Council stating he had no objection to the encroachment, but would object if the overhang of the eaves were cut off. Mr. James Kookum, property owner of Lot 17, Block A of Southwood asked if his lot were in violation of either eaves overhang or front set back. City Engineer Romero stated that this property was not in violation. r-w Q0 Mr. Ira Bogard, property owner, asked when could he move into his house, as his is one of the properties with a double violation. Mr. Bill Miller appeared before the City Council suggesting that the City require a more rigid control of the Building inspection, and that the City shake up the Building Department so that the property owners can be protected by more adequate building inspection. Planning Director Abraham stated that the plot plan for.the-Southwood tract showed the 20' set back for the buildings but that they were built in violation thereof. Mr. Flagg again appeared before the City Council stating that his plot plan showed only the main house set back, but not the roof line or eaves as these building components are shown on the building plans which are 1 checked by the Building.Department. Mr. Romero, City Engineer, stated that the plans were not clear in this respect and that discovery of the eave overhang violation during the plan check would have required scaling of the plans which is beyond the scope of a normal plan check. Councilman Miller asked Mr. Flagg if he knew that.these violations existed prior to the completion of the roofs, etc. Mr. Flagg stated yes, he was aware of the violations, but that he had financial committments with landing institutions which be believed more important than violation of the City Ordinance, which could be corrected by a variance. Mayor Waters then urged that the City Council consider not only the overhang and eves violation, but also the set back .violation, so as not to prolong the matter and continue the inconvenience to the purchasers in preventing them from being able to move into their homes. City Attorney Houser stated that the Municipal. Code required that the Planning Commission hold a hearing on these variances and then recommend to the City Council for the.Council's final decision. If no decision is reached then, the City should take action to see that the buildings ' conform to the City Code. Councilman Donald Q. Miller moved that the City Council first consider the 19' set back problem, and then consider the eaves overhang. The motion died for lack of a second. It was moved by Gerald W. Shipsey, seconded by Donald Q. Miller, that the City grant a 1' variance in the set back of.the property, making the front.set back 19'. 391 a 7_1 JUL 5 1yw Chairman Robert Carpenter of the Planning Commission, stated that.he believed that the matter should go to the Planning Commission first for its recommendation, the required procedure as contained in the City Ordinance. Otherwise, individuals would be bringing their variance problems directly to the City Council for decision. After discussion, Gerald W. Shipsey.withdrew his motion, and Donal "d Q. Miller his second. Donald Q. Miller then moved that the City Council grant a variance as requested on roof and eave overhang. Motion died for lack of a second. It was then moved by Gerald W. Shipsey, seconded:by Donald Q. Miller that the City Council deny the appeal of Lindero Investment Company for a variance; on the-following-roll call.vote: AYES: Gerald W. Shipsey NOES: Kenneth W. Jones, Donald Q. Miller, Fred M. Waters ABSENT: J. Barry Smith Councilman Jones asked for clarification of both violations according to the sketch-marked Exhibit "A ". Motion of Kenneth W. Jones, seconded by Donald Q. Miller, that the City Council grant the variances on the roof and eave overhang on all properties in v16lation, passed on the following roll call vote: AYES: Kenneth W. Jones, Donald Q. Miller, Fred M. Waters. NOES: Gerald W. Shipsey ABSENT: J. Barry Smith Mayor Waters then declared the Hearing closed. 14. City Engineer Romero presented to the City Council for its information a map showing traffic committee recommendation on one -way streets, using Pismo Street westbound, and Buchon.Street_ eastbound. Mr. Romero also explained the street signing and traffic channelization that would be required on this proposal. The City Council discussed the .proposal. It was moved by Gerald W. Shipsey, seconded by Kenneth W. Jones, that the City Council hold a Public Hearing on the proposal to establish a one -way couplet on Pismo and.Buchon Streets.to be held July 18, 1960. 15. A) Order of the Boundary Commission, County of San Luis Obispo, approving the annexation of uninhabited territory, designated as Elks Lodge Annexation, was received and.filed.. B) Communication from Elks Lodge No. 322 protesting the assessment for sewer facilities on proposed annexation area of $1,120 and enclosing a check for $140 for assessment of one acre which they will be using for their Club House. "San Luis Obispo Elks Lodge #322 has received a letter from the City Engineer, David F. Romero, stating that in accordance with Section 7500 of-the Municipal Code, the Elks Club would -be requested to pay to the City the sum of $1,120 as a proportionate share of the cost of the City sewerage facilities serving their property. This charge is based on an eight acre plot at $140 per acre. It is the feeling of the Board of Trustees and the general membership of Elks Lodge #322 that they are not adding to the load carried by the City sewer system, since they are-merely changing locations, and that they are, by being annexed to the City of San Luis Obispo, increasing the City's revenue by some $1500 per year in City Taxes. And, also, that the Elks Lodge,.over the past 65 years.of its existence in San Luis Obispo, has paid a very substantial part of the sewerage facilities serving the City and should not be requested to pay.them twice. The amount of property that the lodge buildings will occupy will be approximately one acre, and the sewage load for these buildings will be approximately that of a single -2 bathroom home. In view of these facts we feel that a just and reasonable charge for tying into the City sewer system would be $140. 1 1 1 JUL a i ,Jw W We respectfully request that the City Council and Mayor accept our check in the amount of $140 as their just and equitable share of connecting into the City sewer system." City Engineer Romero read for the City Council's information the applicable sections of the Municipal Code relative to charges for sewer connections after annexation. Donald Q. Miller moved that the Elks Club pay the full sewer charge as outlined in the Municipal Code. Motion died for lack of a second. It was then moved by Gerald W. Shipsey, seconded by Kenneth W. Jones, that the Elks Club pay one -half of the sewer service charge of the usable acreage, or 4 acres, and file an agreement with the City that they would deposit the balance when and if the other 4 acres were put to use. AYES: Kenneth W. Jones, Donald Q. Miller, Gerald W. Shipsey, Fred M. Waters NOES: None ABSENT: J. Barry Smith r+w 16. 'TRAFFIC COMMITTEE REPORT m60 -6 -1C "The Traffic Committee has studied the request of the Don < Motel for installation of a pipe- mounted sign reading "hotel loading zone" Q in the..white zone which exists in front of the motel. °'D This particular parking space has been a continual problem since its original installation several years ago. It was first designated as a green 10- minute parking space, and we had countless complaints from the management on the lack of enforcement. The committee then recommended a white passenger loading zone, and we have also had many complaints on the ineffectiveness of this zone, particularly at night time when it is difficult to distinguish it from plain marked curbing. It should be noted that except for one-or two isolated cases, motels have not been provided with passenger loading zones because they have their own off - street panting and hct el loading zones are really intended for a ' different purpose -- to keep the area in front of the motel clear in case of fire and a large number of people emerging from one exit, plus of course, the fact that hotels ordinarily do not have off - street parking nearby. It is the recommendation of the Traffic Committee that the present white loading z6ne7.in. -fr6nt of the Don Motel be eliminated and the curb returned to its original unmarked state." Mr. John Seitz appeared before the City Council on behalf of his request for a motel loading zone in front of the Don Motel at 1473 Monterey Street. Mr. Seitz stated in reviewing the recommendation of the Traffic Committee, he had no objections to the establishment of a red zone at the location, but would rather have a white motel zone or sign, rather than eliminate an additional parking space for the businesses in the neighborhood during the day. The motel zone was needed primarily at night. After some discussion by the City Council, it was moved by Kenneth W. Jones, seconded by Donald 0. Miller, that authorization be granted for the motel owner to provide a motel loading zone sign in front of the Don Motel at 1473 Monterey Street subject to the filing of a letter holding the City harmless.from accidents, also a certificate of insurance protecting the City. Establishment of the motel sign to be on a 6 -month trial basis. 17.

Report of City Planning Commission on request of Carlos Moerman to purchase a portion of street right -of -way, portion of lot 14, block 2, Monterey Heights, as requested by the City Council. The City Planning Commission requested that the City Council not authorize the sale of this property as the City -owned property would be needed for street widening, either for street right -of -way, or for slope easement due to steep side slopes at this location. On motion of Gerald W. Shipsey, seconded by Kenneth W.-Jones, the recommendation of the Planning Commission was accepted. Q. 9A JUL 5 MU �G 19. Communication from Councilman Donald Q.
