WHEREAS, the Ciry Planning Commission did hold a public heari~~ at the

hearing having been duly given as required by law and in accordance with the provisions of
the Anaheim Municipal Code, Chapter 18.03, to hear and consider evidence for and against
said proposed variance and t~ investigate and make ~ndings and recammendations -n
connection therewith; and
WHEREAS, said Commission, after due inspection, investigation and study
made by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports
offered at said hearing, does ~nd and determine the following facts:
1. That the petitioner proposes waivers of the following to construct an 8-foot
high £reestanding monument sign for an existing church facility:
,~ection5 13 OS OR0.030 - Permitted identification siens.
and 18 32,9~C7_ (Permitted: one maximum 4-foot high, 2 sa. ft• sign
per street frontage; Proposed: w~ signs consisting of
one 8-foot hiah, 0 s ft sign and one existing 4, s.~a.ft•
sign facing South Street).
2. That there are special circumstances applicable to the property consisting of
size, topography, surroundings and building location, which do not apply to other identically
zone~ properties in the viciniry because this 2.3 acre property is larger than average in size
and has three separate street frontages with vehicular parking al-~wed on each street
thereby restricting visibility of the site;
3, That strict application of the Zoning Code deprives the property of privileges
enjoyed by other properties under identical zoning classification in the vicinity because the
angles of visibility between this property and the adjacent street (South Street), and the
proximity of cars parked along South Street, make it dif~cult to see signage which complies
with the permitted size parameters and other Code standards;

5. That the requested variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment
of a substantial property right possess.ed by othe- property in the same vicinity and zone, and
denied to the property in question; and
6. That the requested variance wil: not be materially detrimental to the public
welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such vicinity and zone in which the
property is located; and

that no ccrrespondence was received in opposition to subject petition.
