The City Attorney _clariffed the, ordinance and esplained that the Commission can specify a quantity � of children they think �vould be appropriate and they do not have to limit the num- z ber to sis. , � Commis�ioaer Raymond informed those present that if the applicant were licensed I for 10 children or less she would be licensed by the County and if she has more than 10, she must be licensed by the State. Furthermore, the State has a number of requirements that �vould preclude the care of 21 children as she e.Ypects to - have.

Variance - 12015 Atlantic Avenue [80003] A report was presented on an application by Julius NTalwitz for a variance to serve liquor within 300 feet of a residentiat zone at the Family Circle Bar, 12015 South Atlantic �venue, Lynwood, in a CB-1 zone. __ The Secretary esplained that, although this bar has operated for 18 years, it has � been closed for 2 years. The ordinance states that any establishment closing for more than 90 days must comply with the Code. Further, staff has felt that findings necessary to grant a variance were not, appropriate in thi� case. The public hearing was opened and anyone. wishing to speak in favor o£the re- quest was asked to come for�vard. NIr. Julius Malwitz, 12015 South Atlantic Avenue, Lynwood, informed the Com- mission he lives in the back of the bar and that he was going to run it himself.

APPLICANT: Henry C: and Mar.�orie-Bigos• 11063' Wright Road " ' : Lynwood, California 90262 ' I:- BACKGRO[JND-, This Conditional Use Permit application.is a companion : case to Zone Change No. .80001, which was continued' frorn the April 8,:: 1980.. regular .meet'ing of:the Planning ., Commission. . The Zone Change on the property was continued to the NIay meeting in order to hear the Conditional Use Permit . and thereby impose conditions on the property at, the ° d'iscretion. of the Planning Commission:. One of the problem � areas in this project,:.as.discussed by,the.Planning Com- mission at the April 8 meeting, i.s the matter of the ` �, single-family dwelling that appear,s to be.remaining . the' front end of the property facing Wa•ight Road�. . In addition, the Commission wishes to, resolve:the matter ,' F� ' of parking on,the property, especially of the Larger • vehicles. `' Other matters discussed at the Hearing on the Zone .Change were: driveway placement, loading: and unloading operations; , _ • - and the ultimate height of the building. •. •. , Another issue brought up at the April 8 meeting:was matter of how the Planning Commission proposes to im- plan ent the overall ,manufacturing zoning.,along,Wright ,Rd. Although there•were no conclusions made at the April 8. . . "" meeting, it appears to staff that some decisions.must be- made fairly.quickly regarding the•implementation of that , ' zoning. Some queries have been made,of staff In the interim.by citizens.who are interested in the, process that , �. will ensue to re-zone the properties to industrial. . ` II. Ai�1ALYSIS As previously-discussed, fhe General'Plan calls for in- dustrial zoning-on the properties along Wright.R"oad in the vicinity of the subject property. The fact that an industrial.building is nearing completion on the property ' ' was a matter of.further discussion by the Planning'Com- , � mission at the previous hearing. .. � � - Cbnditional Use Permit 2 . Case No. 80006 , All things considered, the objective of the Commission . at this point is to condition the further development, of - ' the property to of non-conforming ,' uses, appropriate,driveways, adequate parking, and � minimal overall negative impact on the residential � properties that remain. , , iII. RECOMIiIENDATION ,. Staf£.recommends approval of.

SUBJECT: Zone Change - Case Number 80004 DATE: Apri1 30, 1980 APPLICANT: William and La Verne Loving 11438 Spruce Street Lynwood, Caiifornia 90262 I. BACKGROUND I The subject property is on the east side of Spruce between Walnut and Platt. The zone immediately adjacent to the north is R-2; to the south and to the rear of the build- I ing (east) is R-l. The proponents are suggesting ihe con- struction of a 2-bedroom house with one 20 x 30 garage at the e�ctreme rear of the property. There is currently a singte garage on the south side of the existing house to � which there is a driveway off Spruce. Proposed access i to the new garage is along the northerty edge of the proper- iy. Elevations of the house to be constructed are not avail- , ' abLe since Mr. & Mrs. Loving wish to check for avaiL- abitity of the zone change before investing into expensive drawings that will detail the architecture of the building. II. A�IA LYSIS I The lot upon �vhich the zone change is requested exceeds the minimum 6, 000 square feet and therefore qualifies � for an R-2 zone. However, the proposed design of the tot leaves something to be desired. In the first pLace, 2 driveways out of one Lot are infeasible according to Code. � The desirable configuration would be for one driveway to service both units. Secondly, current Code requires that there be at least 25 feet of set back.at the rear; the pro- posed house is almost at the property line (no dimension is oiven for that set back). Thirdty, . the existing I home requires a double gar•age and there appears to be no space to construct it and maintain the 40%o land cover- I age requirement. , � The above-stated deficiencies in the plan submitted by � � NIr. & vIrs. Loving are only the functional Code-type of criticism. The primary decision that must be made is � in terms of intruding into an R-L neighborhood. Granted � • I I � _ ' . - � � - Case No. 80004 � that immediatety to the north of this property there is a tine running east - west, north of which lie R-2 zone properties; the properties to the south are primarily ' R-1. The contention can be made by the proponents that at the east end of the bLock facing Bullis there is one piece of property in an analogous position that is zoned R-2; it invades the R-1 zone that is south of the east-�vest tine separating the R-2 from the R-1. This argument can go either way. The property facing BuLLis coutd be con- strued to be intruding into the R-1 zone. Staff's reaction to the re-zoning request is that it could conceivably be � granted if proper designing of the deveiopment �vere sub- mitted: For esample, the adding on to the esisting residence, the re-designing of the garages to crcate 4 I spaces , and the submittal of the architectura� design. � Even with an appropriate design, there stiLt remains � the policy decision of whether to start eroding the R-1 � devetopments in the City by converting them to R-2 or , even higher, if requested by other proponents. The i existing GeneraL PLan map indicates this area as a tow density residential area. In the te:ct of that Generat Ptan, it is pointed out that one of the problems that Lyn�vood faces in its Housing areas is that of maintenance of + . property and absentee Landiords. � � To stem the continuance of unkemot properties, there � should be an attempt made to preserve the singte-famity areas, �vhich are those areas that generalLy engender pride of_ownership. � � In addition, Ordinance 1087 (adopted Jan., �980) states i that the objectives of the City regarding the residentiaL zones are, among others: . - To minimize congestion and overtoading � utilities by constructing buildings of esces- sive bu1k; .. - To ensure adequate light, air, privacy, and I open space for each dwei�ing; I - To minimize traffic congestion. I � I The decision on this request, neverthele�s, reverts i to the poLicy of whether to atart eroding R-L properties. There are a nurnber o£ R-2 and R-3 propertie� throughout the City that cou�d be developed For new i housing or •additional housing before any attempt is made to start re-zoning the ii-l.

BACKGROUND - • The building for which the Conditional Use Permit has beea filed is at the southwest corner of Norton and . ' Santa Fe. The building is a sheet metal structure that was at one time part of a complex housing.an , industrial use. The building has 32-00 square feet of usable space with no partitions. There-:is a driveway with a large entry door into the building.on the side ' of the building facing Norton. Parking for the buiid- , ing. will be to the rear on vacant property facing Santa Fe. The building has been upgraded and clean up `ofthe grounds has begun. The use to be housed by the building. under the requested " Conditional Use Permit will 6e the cleaning and re- , conditioning of steam cleaning equipment, such.as used . ` • in dry cleaning shops. Code requirements are that such uses be permitted only via the Conditional Use Permit; in addition, the new M zone requirements ca11 for a plot � plan to be anatyzed For the proposed uses.in the industrial zones. The pians submitted by Mr. Garcia indicate that loading. will be done inside and there is parKing in.the front.. ' ' Staff has aiso been informed that parking.would be on the side of the building facing.Santa Fe. II. A�aLYSIS The suggested use for this property at Norton and Santa Fe �, appears to be a viable industrial use. There wilL.have to i .; be some surfacing and striping of the parking areas and , ' some review of signs when those permits are applied for. � The implementation of this.project should improve the ap- pearance of a building which has long been vacant and has not been well kept, both architecturally and ground wise. i � � � � � � .
