John Van Doren, Zoning Administrator, opened the public hearing.
Scott Koehm, Associate Planner, introduced Item No. 2 and noted that a varia~ce was
granted for the subject property in 2001 to permit a 3 foot side yard setback when a
6 foot setback was required. The addition to the residence was never constructed and
the variance expired. Due to the unique shape of the property, the surrounding
topography and because of the distance between the proposed second story and the
adjacent single-family residence; staff recommends approval of the subject request.
Mr. Van Doren pointed out for clarification the only variance being reviewed at this time
is for a side yard setback for a second story room addition where a portion of the
building wall encroaches into the setback and the remainder of the wall is outside of the
setback due to the wall not being parallel to the property line.
Mr. Koehm responded yes.
Hamid Zanjani, 419 South Windmill Lane, Anaheim, CA, stated he is the owner of the
subject property and is asking for approval of the request.
