Resolution No. 98- 1877PC
Modification of Conditional Use Permit 73 -389
Zone Variance 98 -1335
Page 2
3. That the granting of the variance will not be materially

provide visual relief and mitigate noise from the business;

4. That there are special circumstances as provided' in Section
65906 of the California Government Code in that the subject
property is similar to other commercial properties that border
residential neighborhoods throughout the City.
SECTION 2. This project is Categorically Exempt from an
environmental review in accordance with the State CEQA guidelines.

2. The westerly 30 feet of the proposed wall shall be 36 inches

remaining 110 feet of the proposed wall along the northerly
property line shall be 8 feet in height; and the 80 feet along
the easterly property line with the exception of the first 18
feet shall be 6 feet in height.
3. The construction of the new block wall as approved herein
shall include the replacement of the existing block wall; the
proposed wall along the northerly and easterly property line
shall be reinforced masonry and shall be in conformance with
all applicable sections of the Uniform Building Code.
4. A survey shall be conducted to determine the location of the
property line. If agreement cannot be reached where to place
the wall, the wall shall be constructed on the property of In-
N -Out Burger.
5. Obtain necessary permits for all construction and demolition
work from the Building Department.
6. The construction of the new wall(s) along the northerly and
easterly property lines shall begin within 30 days and
