THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TEMPLE CITY DOES RESOLVE: SECTION 1. The City Council finds and determines that there has heretofore been filed Application No. 66 -186; that after a public hearing thereon the Planning Commission denied such variance by Resolution No. 66- 203PC; that such decision of the Planning Commission was appealed to the City Council, and that a public hearing has been held on such appeal. SECTION 2. That based upon such hearing and the record the City Council does hereby confirm Planning Commission Resolution No. 66 -203PC and does hereby deny said variance application No. 66 -186 for the following reasons: 1. that the City presently has an ordinance pro- viding that all lots front upon a public street; 2. that applicant proposes to create lots which do not front upon a public street; 3. that applicant's property is not unique, but is similar in material respects to other properties in the area and in the City generally; 4. that there are no topographical nor other special circumstances relating to such property which would justify a deviation from the ordi- nance; S. that the ordinance requiring frontage is reasonable and consistent with good planning to provide for proper development of the community; 6. that the grant of such variance would be the dispensing of a special privilege to the applicant not available to other property owners in the area; 7. that the existence of prior non - conforming uses granted prior to incorporation or by previous city councils does not justify the continuation of improper policy; 8. that the approval of the neighborhood by petition is not justification for the grant of this variance; 9. that there would be no special hardship upon the applicant by the denial of the applica- tion in that they may continue to use the property for reasonable purposes or may subdivide consistent with the existing ordinances of the City; and 903 Resolution No. 66 -624 10. that a deviation from the established policy of frontage lots would be detri- mental to the general plan of the community and would not be consistent with the highest and best use of the property.
