This item was continued to give Mr. Gray time to negotiate for extra parking spaces within the required 300 feet. FACTS: 1. Source of Authoritv Section 25-16.15 of the Lynwood Municipal Code requires that a Conditional Use Permit be obtained in order to operate any business with respect to automobile uses. 2. Prooertv Location The subject property is located on the east side of Atlantic Avenue and north of Olanda street (refer to attached location map). 3. Propertv Size The subject property is an irregular shaped lot and totals approximately 8,000 sq.ft. 4. Existinq Land Use • There is a 7,240 square foot building existing on site. The surrounding land uses are as follows: North - Commercial East - Residential South - Commercial West - Vacant 5. Land Use Description The General Plan designation for the subject property is Commercial, and the zoning classification is CB-1 (Planned Business). The surrounding land uses are as follows: General Plan: Zoning: North - Commercial North - CB-1 South - Commercial South - C-2 East - Single-family East - R-1 West - Multi-Family West - R-3 disk68:case40 1 I 6. Proiect Characteristics: The applicant proposes to operate an auto repair and youth training center along with retail auto sales. The site has an existing building to be rehabilitated. The building will be comprised of three operations. The rear section of the building will be used for auto repair and youth training. The front two sections will be used to repair carburetors and to sell auto parts. Thouqh the existing site does not have off-street parking, � the interior layout provides for adequate space to house automobiles for repair. No automobiles waiting to be repaired will be allowed to park on city streets. The applicant will also be required to obtain a location within (300) three-hundred feet of the property for employee and student parking. A covenant and agreement will be signed by the applicant, the city and lessor, to guarantee said parking. The operation requires (15) fifteen parking spaces. The applicant must obtain at least (12) twelve of the required spaces. Staff inet with Mr. Aubrey Gray on April 18, 1990, to discuss the possibility of providing alternative parking within the required 300 feet for the proposed project. At that meeting, staff furnished Mr. Gray with the owners name and address for property directly opposite the subject project. Mr. Gray agreed to contact the owner of the vacant property to negotiate for the use of the property for parkinq. Also, Mr. Gray informed staff that he already tried to contact the owner of the property to the north, at the time the owner intended to begin construction in (3) three months. During a site inspection, staff found that the rear portion of the building is still occupied by a printing press establishment. Mr. Gray informed staff that the printing press operation will remain in the building for three (3) months. Since Mr. Gray proposes to provide some parking within the building, the use of the rear portion for printing poses a parking problem. Presently no parking can be provided for within the building. On June 22, and 25, 1990, Staff inet with Mr. Gray to discuss his inability to acquire the required parking within (300) three-hundred feet of the property for customers. However, he informed Staff that employee parking is available across the street. With the inability to provide the required parking, Mr. Gray and Staff have agreed that the auto repair portion of the business should'be removed from this proposal until the rear portion of the building is available for use, and parking is obtained as required by the Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Gray can then return to the Commission and request approval o£ a Modified Conditional Use Permit to include the auto repair service. The auto part sales use requires (7) seven parking spaces, while the carburetor repair service requires (1) one parking space. If in the future Mr. Gray decides to include an auto repair service, an additional (7) seven parking spaces shall be required. d i skb8: wseGO 2 7. Site Plan Review At its regular meeting on March 22, 1990, the Site Plan Review Committee evaluated the proposed development and recommended approval to the Planning Commission, subject specific conditions and requirements. 8. Zoninq Enforcement History None of record. , � 9. Neicxhborhood Response None of record at the time of preparation of the Staff report. ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSION: 1. Consistencv with General Plan The proposed land use is consistent with the existing zoning classification, (CB-1 Planned Business) and the General Plan designation of Commercial. Therefore, granting Conditional Use Permit No. 40 will not adversely affect the General Plan. 2. Site Suitabilitv The property is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed development relative to structures, walls, and other development features required by the Zoning Ordinance. Atlantic Avenue is a major arterial and is well suited to carry the quantity of traffic the proposed development would generate. 3. Compatibility The proposed development is surrounded by a mixture of commercial developments; therefore, the project will be compatible with the surrounding land uses. However, residential uses are adjacent west and east of the proposed use. 4. Compliance with Development Standards The proposal meets the development standards required by the Zoning Ordinance with respect to setbacks; lot coverage; building height and density. 5. Conditions of Approval The improvements as proposed, subject to the conditions recommended by the Site Plan Review Committee, will not have a negative effect on the values of the surrounding properties or interfere with or endanger the public health, safety or welfare. disk68:case40 3 � 6. Benefits to Communitv. , The proposal will assist in upgrading th� commercial use of the property and support the Commercial designation of the General Plan. 7. Environmental Assessment The Community Development Department Staff has determined that the project is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15061 b(3) of the State of California Environmental Quality Act of 1989 as amended. RECOMMENDATION Staff respectfully requests that after consideration the Planning Commission adopt the attached Resolution No. 2322: 1. Certifying that the project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the State CEQA Guidelines as amended by Section 15061 b(3). 2.

The applicant is requesting a variance for an eight (8') foot wide parking pad and, twelve (12') foot wide curb cut within the front yard setback of the property at 4281 Cortland Avenue in the R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zone. Facts 1. Source of Authoritv. While Section 25-4.12 of the Lynwood Zoning Code regulates parking in all residential zones, Section 25-26 requires that a Variance be obtained from the Planning Commission when, because of special circumstances applicable to the property, the strict application of the Zoning Ordinance deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under identical zoning classification. 2. Propertv Location and Size The site is located on the north side of Cortland Avenue between Lugo Avenue and Brewster Street. It is rectangular in shape and measures approximately 5,950 square feet. 3. Existina Land Use The site is developed with a single family home and a 18' x 26' garage and is surrounded by the following land uses: North - Single Family South - Single Family East - Single Family West - Single Family 4. Land Use Descrintion General plan Zoning , North - Single Family Residential R-1 South - Single Family Residential R-1 East - Single Family Residential ' R-1 west - Single Family Residential R-1 5. Proiect Characteristics The variance request would allow the applicant to develop a twenty three (23') foot long parking pad, and a twelve (12') foot wide curb cut within the front yard setback, in order to park within the front setback. The proposed pad would eliminate eighteen (18�) percent of the existing front yard area. The 5,950 square foot parcel contains a single family � dwelling, and a two car garage, accessible from the alley. � However, the garage has not been in use for years because of ' security reasons. � 1 � I i �:.. .. 6. Site Plan Review At its regular meeting of June 28, 1990 the Site Plan Review Committee recommended denial of the proposed project, to the Planning Commission. 7. Zoninq Enforcement Historv None of record. 8. Public Resoonse None of record at the time the report was prepared. �; ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSION , 1. Consistency with General Plan � The proposed land use is inconsistent with the existing Zoning classification R-1 and the Draft General Plan designation of Single Family Residential. 2. Site Suitabilitv i The property is adequate in size and shape to accommodate � standard parking, structures, walls, fences, landscaping, � driveways and other development features required by the Zoning Ordinance. 3. Compatibilitv The proposed parking pad is incompatible with the parking facilities on neighboring properties. i 4. Compliance with Development Standards Specific Findings: The property is a standard lot with no hardships experienced that would require an exceptional privilege and does not meet the State requirements for findings of a Variance. Granting of this Variance would set a precedent in the city that would eventually result in the increased construction of parking pads of this nature. Staff's determination of these findings is to recommend denial to the Planning Commission on the Variance request, ' since the required findings cannot be made to substaniate the request. 5. Environmental Assessment The Community Development Department Staff has determined that the project�is categorically exempt pursuant to section 15061 b(3) of the State of California Environmental Quality Act of 1989 as amended. RECOMMENDATION Staff respectfully requests that after consideration the Planning Commission deny the Variance Request: disk72:var8 2 . ;.� , , � a. Finding that a hardship has not been established that would require a Variance for Case No. 8 as determined by Section 25-26 of the City of Lynwood Zoning Code. b.

Site Suitabilitv The property is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed development relative to structures, parking, walls, fences, Tandscaping, driveways and other development features required by the Zoning Ordinance. Long Beach Boulevard is a major arterial and is well suited to carry the quantity of traffic the proposed development would generate. 3.

This item was previously continued from the Planning Commission meetings of April 10, May 8, and June 12, 1990. Mr. Omoruyi discussed this item at length, culminating in a change of staff approval to staff-recommended , denial because Mr. Gray has concluded that he cannot provide required parking. Chairperson Dove opened the Public Hearing, and Mr. Aubrey Gray, 12540 Atlantic Avenue, Lynwood, came to the podium to say he has no control over his employees when he is not there, they may be working outside in the street. Mr. Fenderson stated that the City objects to cars waiting to be repaired and cars with hoods up being worked on in the streets. It was agreed by both men that this practice by Mr. Gray's employees of working on cars parked in the street will continue as long as the printer has not moved from the rear portion of the building. Mr. Gray stated he will continue to repair carburetors to survive. He would like to sell auto parts, oil, etc., but the bulk of his income comes from carburetor repair. Commissioner Pryor told Mr. Gray that he is not controlling the illegal activities as he should. Mr. Gray stated that only adjustments are made in the street. Commissioner McMiller told Mr. Gray that he has to take control by being more forceful. The Commission cannot permit this to continue, as it could snowball throughout the City. Mr. Gray stated his business had previously been located at 11681 Atlantic, where he could not get a license, none of the City employees Lad ever helped him or given him any assistance. Ae made the move to 12540 Atlantic to become legal. After all, there are only so many hours in the day, his employees can only work on so many cars in one day, which means there might be four to five cars on side streets. nirdisk8:mi17 Z �I I j Mr. Aubrey Fenderson stated that this item has been { continued three times already. t ' ' Commissioner Pryor stated this situation has been caused by � Mr. Gray�s poor planning and cannot be blamed on the City workers. Either location could have been licensed if Mr. Gray provided required parking. Mr. Fenderson introduced Mr. Karefa-Johnson, who stated that at the previous location Mr. Gray worked on cars in the , j alley. For over a year staff asked him to stop working on cars in the alley, obviously staff was too lenient.

A long discussion followed, with Commissioner McMiller'. - stating he doesn't want another- Frank's carburetor shop like - that on Rosecrans, where you can't see the sidewalk because of the numerous cars. Chairperson Dove discussed the possibility of granting an interim period where a restriction on the number of cars allowed on the street ' would be established. Mr. Barnes stated that Mr. Gray should not be operating his carburetor business, he is operating illegally since he is operating without a permit. No permit is required for an auto supply store but a permit is absolutely required for an auto repair shop. .

Mr. Fenderson introduced Mr. Barfield, who read pertinent information. Chairperson Dove opened the Public Hearing. Josephine Stelitano, 4281 Cortland Avenue, rose to state that she has lived at that address for 43 years. Originally, there was a driveway in the same spot where she now wants to put a parking pad, but she and her husband removed the same to convert the garage and built another garage entering off the alley behind her house. Now, because of the high crime rate, she is afraid to go near the � �� 'alley after dark. Since new neighbors have 5-6 cars in each family, when she comes home late she can't park in front of her own house. She has talked with members of the Sheriff's Department who confirmed her belief that the area she lives in is now considered dangerous after dark. She needs space enough to park a'79 Oldsmobile. Chairperson Dove agreed that these old alleys aren't the qood idea they were considered to be when they were built. Mr. Barfield agreed that seventeen properties in the area have drive approaches that resulted from converted garages. He noted that cars were parked on some of the parking pads. Still, at this time, parking pads or strips are illegal. Thomas Matthews, 4277 Cortland, rose to state his support of her request for a parking pad. He stated that kids run back and forth between the houses. Besides not being safe, the alley isn't even paved. By the time she gets home at night, the new people have taken the space in front of her house plus all the nearby houses. Because of her age and the number of years she has lived in Lynwood, she should have extra consideration, he stated. Also, although he has called the Sheriff's Department, people continue to use the alley as a dumpsite. Lana Puchs, 4059 Cortland, stated she won't go in the alley even during the daytime. All the neighbors park in front of their homes, or even, when absolutely necessary, on their front yards when there is no other safe place to park. There was no one else present wishing to speak in favor of, or in opposition to the project, so Chairperson Dove closed the Public Aearing. Commissioner Willis commented that he lives nearby, and last year there were several break-ins in the garages fronting on the alley. He stated the composition of the neighborhood is mixed, some have parking pads, some don't. The alley is very narrow and could be very dangerous due to changing social factors and the present criminal element. efndisk8:mi77 � 6 i � I Commissioner Cole-Dennis commented that Mrs. Stelitano only . � wants her old drive back. She said that since there are so many other people in the neighborhood en�oying the privilege of a parking pad, Mrs. Stelitano should be allowed to have one, too. Commissioner Pryor commented that, considering the present circumstances and since her nearby neighbors have, parking pads, he has no problem letting her have the parking pad and approach. . Mr. Barnes stated that staff should base their findings on characteristics of the property, not on the resident. Also, the City Council has forbidden parking on front lawns. . Chairperson.Dove said he had mixed feelings, he understands the problems Mrs. Stelitano is encountering with the alley, � but would like to maintain green lawn areas in Lynwood, even in high crime areas. Mr. Fenderson stated that staff had to follow the City Code. MOTION by Commissioner Willis, SECONDED by Commissioner "� Cole-Dennis,.to approve Variance Case No. 8, finding that a hardship has been established and the applicant would be deprived of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the same vicinity if the recommendation of � " denial is upheld, with the condition that the cement pad be visually compatible with the surrounding lawn. � MOTION carried by the following vote: AYES: Commissioners Cole-Dennis, Dove, Muhsin, Pryor, Willis NOES: Commissioner McMiller ABSENT: Commissioner Haynes ABSTAIN: None " � 5.
