Commissioner Harris abstained from discussion and voting on this item. City Planner reviewed the plans and staff report, advising that this item had previously been continued after testimony from residents in the area for purposes of resolving the circulation system around the site, drawing up a detailed circulation system for the neighborhood and, in addition, for street vacations to be processed for portions of Via Eytel and Avenida Palos Verdes. With reference to the street vacations he advised that the City Council, at the July 6 meeting, would declare its intentions, and that if the Council were in favor of the vacations the item would be scheduled for public hearing some 30 days thereafter. Two letters in opposition were read into the record and a petition requesting the vacation of the streets was presented. The Commission was advised that staff was recommending a continuance until such time as the City Council declared its intention whether or not to vacate the streets in question. Chairman declared the hearing open and the following persons spoke from the audience: John Wessman, 498 Burton Way, the developer, advised that since the matter was going to be continued he would withhold any comments rela- tive to the project until such time as the vacation of the streets had been resolved and the matter was actually heard on its merits. Sally Sands, 567 Lujo Circle, speaking in favor of the application, re- ported that she had been working with the medical profession for some 35 years and set forth the various auxiliary groups she had been associated with. With reference to the expansion of St.John 's Hospital in Santa Monica, she noted a few of the problems involved because of single family homes directly across the street from the hospital , as well as a school in the immediate vicinity, and advised that they had been resolved. With reference to the medical building being requested she stated, in her opinion, there was a definite need for such a facility close to the hospital , set forth the various reasons for her opinion and noted that it would not only benefit the hospital but the doctors as well . She requested that the Commission act favorably on the appli- cation. June 22, 1977 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 3 PUBLIC HEARINGS - Continued CASE 5.0001 -PD-72 - Continued Carol Cadigan advised that she was representing the Katherine Finchy Parent Group and that they were not speaking either in favor of the project or against it but only wished to make known some of their thorgghts and requests prior to the approval of the application in favor of the project or against it. They were as follows: That a flagman be provided for controlling traffic during the time children are going to school and from 2:00 in the afternoon as the children from Rlymond Cree also used that route. With reference to the driveway on Tachevah and the fact that cars stop in the bicycle path before proceeding onto the street, they reggested that assign be posted saying either "bike trail " or "children crossing" or that a stop sign be placed at the sidewalk before the cars could proceed out onto the street. In addition, that seHous consideration be given to the type of landscaping proposed for the exit, particularly its future growth, so that it Mould not hinder the line of sight for the sidewalk or the bike trddl . Because of the already heavy traffic in the area, with no controls provided, they were requesting some kind of traffic control at the corner of Via Miraleste and Tachevah. There being no further appearances the hearing was closed and this item was continued to the July 13, 1977, Planning Commission Meeting. June 22, 1977 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 4 PUBLIC HEARINGS - Continued CASE 6.296 - Application U M. HABER for a variance from on-site parking requirements as required by Section 9306 of the Zoning Otdinance for property situated on the northwest corner of Belardo and Ramon Road, R-3 Zone, Section 15. Commission response to written comments on draft Negative Declaration. No comments received. City Planner presented the staff report containing background, findings, conditions and the staff recommendation for approval subject to the conditions. He advised that two letters in opposition had been received and the letters were read into the record. With reference to a comment made in one of the letters regarding the angle parking on Cahuilla Road, the Commission was advised that it had been used in connection with the hotel for many years and that it was used primarily by employees and guests staying at the Inn. With reference to the restaurant and dining room facilities he explained that valet parking was used with the cars being placed on the interior roads within the project or they were taken to the Coachella Valley Savings & Loan parking lot. Chairman declared the hearing open and the following persons spoke from the audience: M. Haber, 700 W. Stevens Road, the applicant, advised that.the angle parking on Cahuilla Road hhd been in existence long before he took over the Inn and that it was not used for restaurant parking but o►hly for the 26 hotel units. He noted that the horseshoe driveway, entering and exiting on Belardo, was used for the existing restaurant facility. Wfitth reference to the requested addition he advised that it would be used for catering parties and small functions, primarily on Saturday nights during the season, that it would require 20 additional parking spaces and he had, through a lease agreement with Coachella Valley Savings & Loan, leased 25 additional spaces with the possibility of more being added if the arrangement worked out satisfactorily to all concerned. , David Christian, the architect for the project, advised that there was one minor clarification in that the actual drawings showed only 500 sq. ft. instead:, of the 600 mentioned, which meant that there would be less chairs and thus somewhat alleviate the overall parking situation. There being no further appearances the hearing was closed. Commissioner Lapham observed that if the variance were granted it would give the City control over the parking which the City had never had before. In addition, he advised he would not want to see any of the interior landscaping removed for purposes of parking and he was, therefore, in favor of granting the variance. June 22, 1977 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 5 PUBLIC HEARINGS - Continued CASE 6.296 - Continued City Planner, in reply to questions, reported that the lease agreement indicated that the 25 spaces being leased were not just specified for use during evening hours, but that there was a nonexclusive right to the 25 spaces on a 24 hour basis. In addition, there was an exclusive provision in the agreement for 25 spaces during all week days and week ends from 7:00 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. Me advised that the lease agreement was for a period of three years and was renewable each year thereafter unless the licensor advised the licensee, or visa versa, in wri.t,ing 90 days prior to the expiration of the present lease that one or the other desired to terthinate the lease, and that there was also a provision whereby the lease was terminable at will , for just cause, within 30 days if the need should arise. Commissioner Ehrens questioned whether it was not possible to require the parties to insert in the agreement a clause whereby the City would be notified of any termination of the agreement. He was advised by City Planner that it could be a condition of approval . Following discussion, motion was made by Ehrens, seconded by Chase, and unanimously carried, ordering the filing of a Negative Declaration and approving this application based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: FINDINGS 1 . Because of the unique character of the Ingleside Inn and land- scaped grounds it would be detrimental to the project and the area to convert these landscaped grounds to parking if an alternate solution is available. 2. That approval of this variance would result in an increase in available parking to the Ingleside Inn within close proximity and would not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with what would be allowed to other properties in the vicinity. 3. The granting of this variance would not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare or injurious to other properties in the vicinity. CONDITIONS 1 . That use of this additional 500 sq. ft. dining area is contingent upon the continuation of the lease agreement with Coachella Valley Savings and Loan, Should this lease be terminated the use of this area must be discontinued or an alternate parking arrangement sub- ject to City approval must be made. June 22, 1977 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 6 PUBLIC HEARINGS - Continued CASE 6.296 - Continued 2. That the building addition be subject to architectural approval . 3. That the lease agreement with Coachella Valley Savings & Loan Association is to indicate that the City shall be notified within 30 days should the lease agreement be terminated by either party. CASE 5.0009-CUP - Application by R. A. WALLIS for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a 120 unit family condominium use on property located on the south side of Ramon Road between Cerritos and Farrell Drive, R-1-C, W-R-1-C Zones, Section 24. City Planner presented the staff report, reviewed the plot plan and explained the surrounding zoning while pointing it out on the aerial photograph. He advised that the Architectural Advisory Committee had recommended a continuance for the refinement of the site plan and development of an additional elevation study. The following was received from the Tribal Council : �- "The Tribal Council , in accordance with recommendations of the Indian Planning Commission, approved the granting of the re- quested Conditional Use, but not with Condition Nos. 2 and 3, recommended by the City Planning Staff. "The Tribal Council , as recommended by the Indian Planning Commission, approved completely revised Conditions 2 and 3 as follows: "2. Until such time as the proposed Tahquitz flood control channel is constructed and the southerly portion of the property is removed from the extant 'W=Watercourse Zone, ' that portion of said property within the 'W' zone shall not be used for any pur- pose other than for accessory uses, including re- creation, in conjunction with the proposed condominium units on the northerly portion of said property. 113. At such time as the said Tahquitz flood control channel. is constructed and the property is relieved of the application of the extant 'W' zone, then, and in that event said property may be used for appropriate permanent development, not necessarily related to the accessory category referred to in Condition No. 2 above." June 22, 1977 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 7 PUBLIC HEARINGS - Continued CASE 5.0009-CUP - Continued Chairman declared the hearing open and the following persons spoke from the uae thence: Hannah Holsman advised that she lived across the street from the proposed Oroject and that while she was not opposed to it she was opposed to only one access to the property being provided, as it would make Cerritos a highly traveled thoroughfare. She suggested that there should be three entrances and exits provided and requested that the Commission give careful consideration to this aspect of the plans. James Dillman,advised that he too was an owner of a condominium across the street from the proposed project, as well as the treasurer of the Home Owners Association, and that he was speaking .©n behalf of the President of the Firebird Home Owners Association. He reviewed the various projects in the area4 reported that they were concerned with the entrance on Cerritos, and suggested that the access road in front of the condominium be continued so that the entrance to the project could be from Ramon Road. He observed that to add vehicles from a 120 unit condominium project to the traffic that was already in the area, because of other projects and the events taking place at the Pavilion and High School , would create a great deal of traffic for a very narrow street. There being no further appearances the hearing was closed and this item was continued to the July 13, 1977, Planning Commission Meeting. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * CASE 5.0010-CZ - Application by DOWNTOWN PROPERTIES, INC., for a Change of Zone from C-1-AA to C-T on five acres of property situated on the north side of Tahquitz-McCallum Way between Sunrise Way and Hermosa Drive, Section 14.

Chairman declared the hearing open and the following persons spoke from the audience: Herb Adams advised that he was the agent and builder for the owner and that if the application were approved their intention would be to go ahead with one acre subdivisions. With reference to the homes they were intending to build he reported that they would be taking into account the industrial area and would be providing considerable screen- ing and noise abatement materials. �. Bettina Manstro, 1375 Via Roberto Miguel , stated that she was very much against the project because of the possibility of heavy trucks and equipment in the area and the hazard they would present to children playing in the neighborhood. There being no-:further appearances the hearing was closed. Commissioner Lapham asked what was proposed for the property directly to the south and he was advised that the Commission had already con- sidered a tentative map proposing to subdivide the property into 20 single family residential lots that would serve as a barrier between the existing homes and the industrial complex. In reply to another question by Commissioner Lapham, City Planner advised that there would be a residential street between the new homes and the industrial area, and reviewed the various options that would be available for the buffer zone. Following discussion, motion was made by Lapham seconded by Allan, and unanimously carried ordering the filing of a Negative Declaration and recommending approval of the application based on the following findings: i June 22, 1977 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINTU ES Page 9 PUBLIC HEARINGS - Continued CASE 5.0011 -CZ - Continued FINDINGS: 1 .
