CR3354PL,DOC -1 PC98-107
2. That the above-mentioned waiver is hereby granted on basis that there are special
circumstances appiicable to the property consisting of its location and surroundings which do not apply to
other property in the vicinity because the curve of the puF,'~c right-of-way (Beach Boulevard), as
approached from the north, limits visibility to the property and makes it difficult for clientele (drivers of
recreationai vehicle) to find the R.V. park without the help of a Iarger identification sign.

substantial property right possessed by other property in the same vicinity and denied to the property in
question because this property is developed with a commercia~ use (recreational vehicle park) and is
located on Beach Boulevard which is a prEdominantly commercial arterial highway; and, that as part of
the Preliminary West Anaheim Action Pfan, staff is recommending this property be reclassified from the
RS-A-43,000 (Residential, Agricultural) Zone to the CL (Commerciai, Limited) Zone, which would allow the
size of sign currently being proposed.

injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located.
