2. Conditional Use Permit - Case No. 88016
4255-4257 Carlin Avenue (Ales Galindo)
Applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to build
fourteen units at the above address in the R-3 zone.
Chairperson Iianka opened the Public Hearing. Ale�c Gal.indo
was not present, and no one was present to represent him.
Commissioner Pryor wanted to postpone the Public Hearing
until Mr. Galindo could be present because the Commissioner
wanted to discuss the twv bonus units with Mr. Galindo.
Commissioner Pryor was willing to vote without the presence
of Mr. Galindo, only if denial of the bonUS was part of the
motion.
Mr. Barnes explained the regulations regarding the density
bonus. The present Code provides a bonus for large lot
developments at the discretion of the Planning Commission.
The proposed amendment would provide a 25� bonus above the
basic density, if the deceloper will rent/sell to low or
moderate income families or senior citizens. The 25% bonus
is not discretionary, it is mandated by State law. The bonus
P1r. Galindo is requesting is under the existing Code, and
therefore can be denied by the Commission.

apartments at the rear of an existing single-family dwelling.
The Public Hearing was opened by Chairperson Kanka and Brian
Callahan, Contractor, 2380 Glendale Avenue, Los Angeles,
90039, rose to speak., He stated that Mark Bruss is his
architect, not the applicant. He questioned page 2,
paragraph 4 of the staff report under "Project
Characteristics", which stated the total height of the
building to be fourteen feet. This was corrected by staff,
it should be thirty-five feet.
Mr. Callahan requested that Condition No. 9, for a block wall
or fence, be changed to chain link or wood, because either is
cheaper than a block wall. Mr. Karefa-Johnson stated this
requirement is policy for all developments in the high
density residential zones. A permit must be obtained bv the
applicant, and Mr. fiarefa-Johnson recommended that the block
wall stay° as a requirement.
Mark Bruss rose at this time to state that there are single
family dwellings around the property; it was established
that the zoning is R-3.
, Mr. Callahan questioned Conditions No. 21 and No. 2�. Mr.
Murga stated that wheelchair ramps are required when new
construction is performed, and the sidewall; in front of the
property will not necessarily have to be replaced. It was
agreed that Mr. Callahan and staff will work together to
resolve the matter of the sidewalk.
Mr. Callahan questioned Condition No. 25, regarding the sewer
connection. Mr. Murga replied that each building must have
separate sewers, but this can also be worked uut with staff.
Mr. Murga said it may be possible to tie-in the seuer.
Ultimately, Mr. Murga agreed that this condition could be
waived.
Mr. Callahan questioned Conditions No. 26 and No. 27, the
Undergrounding of utilities. Mr. Murga stated these
conditions will depend largely on the Southern California
Edison Companp. Again, staff will work c;ith the applicant.
At this point it was established that Jose Serrano is the
owner of the property and Plessrs. Callahan and Bruss wei•e
hired by Mr. Serrano.

the Sheriff's Department opposing the proposal because of
inadequate parking and possible gar�g problems was received b5
staff.
_ Chairperson Kanka opened the Public Hearing and Richard
Rodriquez, 8120 Danby Avenue, Whittier, rose to speak. He
objected to Condition No. 11, which requires that he close
the business beween 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. because of the
pool tables. He stated that most of his business is during
the nightime and he would rather close during the day.
Doug Barnes remarked that the condition is part of the Code
and cannot be dropped. The applicant said many couples or
people who work scaing shift come there to eat and play pool
c9uring those hours, and this situation has prevailed for
thirteen years. He contended that gang members do not
congregate there.
The possibility of separating the eating area from the pool
i;ables was discUSSed, but, because of space limitations, this
was not feasible. Besides, the applicant stated that the pool
. tables are the main attraction to his customers. Conditiun
No. 11 can be eliminated only by the City Council, Mr. Barnes
reiterated.

1. Conditional Use Permit No. 87097
4271 Carlin Avenue - Teresita Valdez
Applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to operate a
convalescent hospital at subject address in the R-3 zone.
Mr. Karefa-Johnson informed the Commission that staff's
recommendation has been changed, upon the advice of the
Deputy City Attorney, to request denial of the Conditional
Use Permit, the projest would be inconsistent with the
General Plan. The General Plan designation for the
proposed site is "Townhouse and Cluster Housing" which is
con�istent with the R-2 (Two-Family Residential) zone.
To permit a convalescent hospital at the subject address
would be inconsistent with the General Plan of Lynwood and
therefore a violation of State law.
Chairperson Kanka opened the Public Hearing and asked for
comments from Ms. Valdez who stated her acceptance of all the
conditions, except that she cannot get a license from the
State until she has Conditional Use Permit approval from the
City. She stated she will be the sole owner/operator of the
business, and she is leasing the property. She requests
approval of a 90-bed hospital because of insufficient parkinq
for her original request of 105 beds. Her total projected
staffing consists of approximately 95 employees, for the three
shifts covering a 24-hour period.
Commissioner Haynes discussed previous problems with the
hospital under the prior owner/manaqer. He expressed his
concerns about parking, water and sewer usage. He asked Ms.
Valdez if a doctor will be on the premises 24-hours a day.
Ms. Valdez replied that a doctor will be on call 24-hours a
day, and Registered Nurses will be on the premises 24-hours a
day, as required by State law. She expressed her opinion that
the taxes she would be paying will more than cover the
projected usage of water and sewage.
Chairperson Kanka asked if anyone else wished to speak for the
proposal, there being no one, she asked if anyone wished to
speak against the proposal.
Councilperson Robert Henning, 3952 Carlin Avenue, stated his
disapproval because of the inconsistency with the General
Plan. Ae also stated that the Sheriff's Department has
problems with gangs and drugs in that area, and expressed his
concern for the safety of the patients. Also, the City
experienced many problems with patients from this hospital
bothering the children from the nearby school.

that the business is run praperly. She remarked that she
plans to have a business which the community will be proud.

Valdez stated that she understood that the issue had been
resolved at the last meeting she'd attended in January, 1988.
Mr. Karefa-Johnson stated that the Commission is legally
unable to rezone the property. Ms. Valdez asked if the
property could be "grandfathered" in, since a convalescent
hospital had legally operated there in the past. Chairperson
Kanka replied that since the hospital has been closed over 90
days, it no longer has "grandfather" status.
Douglas Barnes stated that the General Plan would have to be
amended.
MOTION made by Commissioner Haynes, SECONDED by Commissioner
Cole-Dennis, to deny Conditional Use Permit No. 87097, based
on staff's report that it would be illegal by State law

hospitals and suggested that Ms. Valdez try to find a site in

SUBJECT: Conditional Use Permit No. 88028
3327 Sanborn Avenue, Lynwood, CA.
Applicant: Willar@ MichZin - President
Kismet Real Estate Investment Inc.
6324 Sunset Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA. 90028
PROPOSAL
The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit _to build
three (3) three-bedroom units behind an existing residence at 3327
Sanborn Avenue, in the R-3 (Multiple Family Residential) zone.
The applicant is also proposing play apparatus for children of the
complex.
The applicant is returning to the Planning Commission with the
recommended revisions. At the May 10, 1988 meeting, the Planning
Commission recommended that the applicant address the parking lot
turning radius, project density and recreational open space for
families with children. The applicant has responded to these
issues with the plans presented with this packet. �
;�
FACTS
i
1. Source of Authority �' �
Section 25-4.2 of the Lynwood Municipal Code requires that a �
Conditional Use Permit be obtained in order to build and/or ;
relocate any dwelling unit in the R-3 zone. �'
:
2. Property Location =
z
' The subject property consists of a single lot on Sanborn °
Avenue between Long Beach Boulevard and California Avenue �
(See attached Location Map). _
t
3. Property Size � '
i
The subject is a rectangular shaped lot that is fifty (50') !
, feet wide and one hundred and eighty (180') feet deep; the i
total area is approximately 9,000 square feet.
' �
4. Existing Land Use �
i
The property currently has one (1} single family residence. �
The surrounding land uses are as follows: �
;
North - Single Family Home & Duplex �
South - Lynwood Board of Education/Personnel Office �
East - Single Family Home & Duplex
West - Two Single Family Homes
5. Land Use Description ;
The General Plan designation for the subject property is I
Multiple Family Residential, and the zoning classification is
R-3 (Multiple Family Residential). The surrounding land uses
are as follows:
' �
DISK 27:880ZSCUP
I
'
General Plan Zoning
North - Multiple Family Residential North - R-3
South - Multiple Family Residential South - P-1/R-3
East - Multiple Family Residential East - R-3
West - Multiple Family Residential West - R-3
6. Project Characteristics:
The applicant proposes to build a three-story, three (3) unit '
residential building. The units are proposed for the second
and third floors, while the parking spaces and laundry room
are planned for the first floor. In addition, the applicant
is planning to add a new bathroom and walk-in closet to the
rear of the existing house. The apartments and the existing
residence will be connected. The total height of the
development is thirty-two (32') feet.
7. Site Plan Review
At its regular meeting on April 21, 1988, the Site Plan
Review Committee approved the proposed project, subject to
the conditions and requirements stated in the attached
Resolution.
8. Zoning Enforcement History '
None of record. I I
9. Public Response �:
Objection received.
ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSION I
i
1. Consistency with the General Plan �
i
The proposed land use is consistent with the existing zoning �
designation (R-3) and consistent with the General Plan �
designation (Multiple Family Residential). i
2. Site Suitability
i
The property is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the
proposed development relative to parking and driveways. In
addition, it is adequate in terms of density, walls, fences,
landscaping, recreational open space and other development
features required by the Zoning Ordinance. �
At 18 units per acre, the maximum allowable density for the I
site is 3.72 units. The applicant is proposing that a total �
of four (4) units (Three new units and the existing ;
residence) be maintained on the site. State law requires '
that developers be allowed to have a 25o density bonus if the j
extra unit(s) are provided for low or moderate income i
families. The applicants proposal to build three and '
maintain four (4) units is within the 4.15 units allowed for �
the site with the density bonus. '
Sanborn Avenue is not a major arterial and is substandard in I
width. At any given time residents and visitors can only i
park on one side of the street. Therefore, an adequate �
number of on-site parking spaces is of primary importance. �
�
I
I
DISK 27:88028CUP '
�
I
I
I
3. Compatibility
The proposed development is surrounded by a mixture of low
and medium density residential developments; therefore, the
project will be compatible with the existing developments in
the area.
4. Compliance with Development Standards
The proposal meets the development standards required by the
Zoning Ordinance with respect to side, and rear yard
setbacks; distance between structures; lot coverage;
building height; and density. However, the parking spaces
do not meet Code in that each parking space in a building
and/or next to a pole or wall is required to be 10 feet by 20
feet. The parking spaces at the subject site adjacent to
structural poles or building walls are only 9 feet by 20
feet.
In addition, parking space #1 has little turning radius to I �
enable the user to backup and drive forward off the property. �'
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. �
I
6. Benefits to Community i
The proposed development will aid in aesthetically upgrading I
the neighborhood, if the recommended conditions of approval
are adopted, and will act as a catalyst in fostering other �
quality developments. Furthermore, the development will add �
favorably to the City's housing stock and will provide �
additional affordably-priced housing in furtherance of the I
policies of the Housing Element of the General Plan. �
i
7. Environmental Assessment �
i
The subject proposal has been found to be Categorically
Exempt from the provisions of the State CEQA Guidelines, as �
amended. (Section 15303 class 3.)
i
I
RECOMMENDATION:
I
Staff respectfully requests that after consideration the Planning I
Commission adopt the attached Resolution No. 2197: '
1. Finding that the proposed development will not have a �
substantial effect on the environment and that the I
project is Categorically Exempt from the requirements of i
the State CEQA Guidelines, as amended (Section 15303, ,
Class 3). �
I
2. Approving Conditional Use Permit No. 88028, subject to
the stated conditions and requirements including

� recommended by the Site Plan Review Committee, will not have a
