Having-been appointed Zoning Administrator by the Planning Director,,,,pursuant
to Anaheim Municipal Code Section 18..12..040, to decide the above-referenced
petition and public hearing having been duly noticed for and held on the date
set forth above, I do hereby find:
1. That there are special circumstances applicable to the property consisting
of topography, location and surroundings, which do not apply to other
identically zoned properties in the vicinity because the maximum .heights
of the two dwellings will be either at the same elevation or no more than
3 feet higher than the elevations of the property lines separating subject
.property from adjacent residential lots to the south, and that no views
from adjacent properties are adversely impacted because the lines-of-sight
will be over the proposed dwellings; and
2. That strict application of the Zoning Code deprives the property of
privileges enjoyed by other properties in identical zoning classification
in the vicinity because adjacent homes to the south have north-facing
elevations which exceed 25 feet in height.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT FINDINGS• That the Zoning Administrator
has reviewed the. proposal for waiver of maximum .structural height to construct
2 single-family structures on an irregularly-shaped parcel of land consisting
of approximately 2.27 acres located at the southeast corner of Hidden Grove
Lane and Fox Glen Drive, having approximate frontages of 500 feet an the .east
