tax.

APPEAL - VARIANCE NO. 83-10 - NORTHEAST CORNER OF FIFTH
AND "G" STREETS - BOYD - CONTINUED FROM JUNE 20, 1983
This is the time and place continued to for an appeal filed
by Harold and Jane Boyd on the Planning Commission's decision of
denial of the application for Variance No. 83-10, which would
allow less than the required parking for a restaurant located at
the northeast corner of Fifth and "G" Streets. (9)
Frank Schuma, Planning Director, answered questions and pre-
sented new findings of fact which the Council would adopt if they
decide to grant this appeal.
City Attorney Prince answered questions regarding the variance
procedure and compared this case to the remodeling of the Califor-
nia Hotel.
- 4 -
7/5/83
Jane Boyd, applicant, presented her appeal and stated that
they will actually be eliminating seating even though they would
be adding an additional 1,000 square feet to the building.
The Planning Director answered questions regarding parking
requirements for various uses. He read the following proposed
findings of fact:
1. Due to the limitations of the size (150' x 152')
of the property, additional parking cannot be
ascertained on-site to sufficiently meet the
existing parking requirements for this existing
and operational restaurant.
2. In order for this property and business owner to
expand his business, this variance is necessary
to allow such an expansion. No vacant land exists
adjacent to subject property, thus permitting the
expansion of additional off-street parking spaces.
3. The granting of this variance will not be materially
detrimental to the general welfare of the public.
The "Parking District" is established immediately to
the south of the existing restaurant. There are
businesses within the neighborhood which do not have
the parking which would be required of them if they
were outside the District and have much less than
what the applicant presently has on-site.
4. The granting of the variance would not be in con-
flict with the objectives of the City's General
Plan. With the establishment of the Parking Dis-
trict immediately to the south of the site, the
neighborhood has been established as having less
than required parking when compared to other com-
mercial areas designated on the City's General Plan.
Its total impact will be insignificant when compared
to the entire City.
Council Member Quiel made a motion, seconded by Council Mem-
ber Castaneda, that the decision of the Planning Commission be
rejected, and the Variance be granted based upon the findings of
fact presented by the Planning Director dated July 5, 1983.
City Attorney Prince stated he felt that the findings of
fact were not adequate.
The motion carried by the following vote:
Members Castaneda, Quiel, Frazier, Strickler.
Absent: Council Member Hernandez. Abstain:

APPEAL - VARIANCE NO. 83-10 - NORTHEAST CORNER OF FIFTH
AND "G" STREETS - BOYD - RECONSIDER PREVIOUS ACTION
The action taken granting Variance No. 83-10 based upon the
findings of fact presented by the Planning Director dated July 5,
1983, was reconsidered. (9)
The City Attorney submitted a proposed set of findings of
fact.
- 19 -
7/5/83
Council Member Reilly made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Quiel, to add the following findings of fact, prepared by
the City Attorney, to the findings that were previously approved:
A. The following exceptional or extraordinary cir-
cumstances and conditions exist:
1. The addition to the existing restaurant
facilities will reduce the dining area by
several hundred feet or by thirty-five or
more seats.
2. The Parking District boundaries are located
thirty-five feet from the subject site and
if the site were located within such bounda-
ries, a variance would not be necessary.
3. The parking spaces for the existing restau-
rant are in compliance with the non-conform-
ing provisions of the Code and the improve-
ments and additions will not increase the
use, but will upgrade the facilities for the
elderly and handicapped.
4. Many of the customers are from the neighbor-
hood and do not use the parking spaces.
5. The above circumstances and conditions do
not apply generally to other properties lo-
cated in the zoning district or neighborhood.
B. The variance sought is necessary for the preserva-
tion and enjoyment of a substantial property right
of the applicant in that without the proposed ex-
pansion, the restaurant cannot economically exist
in this particular area.
C. Granting the variance will not be materially det-
rimental to the public welfare or injurious to
property and improvements in the zoning district
and the neighborhood in which the property is lo-
cated, because the exceptional circumstances cited
in Findings A - 1, 2, 3 and 4 above assure that no
such detriment will arise.
D. The objectives and purposes of the master plan
will be protected in that the variance will not
affect the proposed use of the property and the
proposed variance is consistent with the overall
goals of the master plan.
The motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Council
Members Castaneda, Reilly, Marks, Quiel, Frazier, Strickler.
Noes: None. Absent: None. Abstain: Council Member Hernandez.
