PC Res 2430RESOLUTION NO. 2430
PLANNING COMMISSION
BEING AN ORDINANCE OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF CAMPBELL APPROVING A VARIANCE
TO THE REQUIRED FRONTYARD AND SIDEYARD SETBACKS
TO ALLOW CONSTRUCTION OF A TWO-CAR GARAGE
ON PROPERTY KNOWN AS 229 EL CANIINITO DR.
IN AN R-1 (SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) ZONING
DISTRICT (APPLICATION OF MR. GRIFFITH CROOKS,
V 86-04).
After notification and public hearing as specified by law on the
application of Mr. Griffith Crooks for a variance to the required
frontyard and sideyard setbacks to allow the construction of a two-car
garage on property known as 229 E1 Caminito Dr. in an R-1 (Single Family
Residential) Zoning District, as per the application filed in the Planning
Department on October 16, 1986; and, after presentation by the Planning
Director, the hearing was closed.
After due consideration of all evidence p,Xesented, the Commission did find
as follows:
1. The applicant has not demonstrated that an unnecessary hardship will
result if the variance is not granted.
2. Any hardship relating to the property was self-imposed as a result of
the conversion of the original garage to living space and the
construction of the swimming pool and spa in the rear yard.
3. Approval of the variance would be detrimental to the neighborhood in
that cars parking behind the new garage would block the sidewalk. The
1 foot sideyard setback would be detrimental to the neighboring
property due to the garage's proximity.
4. That the establishment, maintenance, and operation of the proposed use
will be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort or
general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood
of such use, or detrimental or injurious to property and improvements
in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City.
5. The variance would permit a structure with setbacks inconsistent with
those in the neighborhood.
Based on the above findings, the Planning Commission does hereby recommend
approval of the requested variance, subject to the following conditions:
Public Works Department
1. Submit application to Parks and Recreation Commission for tree removal
permit.
Resolution No. 2430 -2- V 86-04
2. Obtain an excavation permit, pay fees and post surety to install
driveway.
