Qs. zot
No one indicated their presence at the public hearing in opposition to the proposal and no
correspondence in opposition was received.
The Zoning Administrator hereby finds:

setback ranging from 4 feet to 7 feet (west to east) from Camino Tampico (instead of 0 to 7
feet, as was proposed); that the waiver is approved, in part, on the basis that there are

shaped (trapezoidal) compared to other lots (rectangular) in the vicinity and the lot frontage
is much wider than the lot is deep; that the width is 169 feet (minimum 70 feet required by
Code) and the depth ranges from 91 feet along the westerly side to 20 feet along the
easterly side (minimum 103 feet required by Code); and that strict application of the Zoning
Code deprives the property of privileges enjoyed by other properties for establishing
screened private recreation/leisure areas within the back and side yards.
2. That the City Traffic and Transportation Manager has reviewed the site plan, as approved,
and determined that the proposed wall, located at a minimum 4-foot setback from Camino
Tampico near the west property line, will not interfere with necessary lines-of-sight between
subject property and the abutting single-family residence to the west.
3. That, as approved, a 4 to 7-foot deep landscaped setback will be maintained along Camino
Tampico and will create a single landscaped area for uniform maintenance and will
encourage the growth of plant materials to reduce the mass of the block wall and prevent
graffiti opportunities.
Based on the evidence and testimony presented, the Zoning Administrator hereby approves
Variance No. 2001-04478, in part, subject to the following conditions:
(a) That the approved block wall shall maintain a minimum four (4) to seven (7) foot front
setback along Camino Tampico, as shown on the approved plans;
(b) That landscaping, including clinging vines and shrubs, shall be planted adjacent to the
wall facing the public street in order to prevent graffiti opportunities; and
(c) That a landscaping plan shall be submitted to the Zoning Division showing the specific
plants, sizes and locations in the setback area between the approved wall and the
street.
2. That the subject property shall be developed substantially in accordance with plans and
specifications submitted to the City of Anaheim by the petitioner and which plans are on file
with the Planning Department marked Revision No. 1 of Exhibit Nos. 1 and 2, and as
conditioned herein.
That within a period of one (1) year from the date of this decision, Condition Nos. 1, 2 and 5,
herein-mentioned, shall be complied with. Extensions for further time to complete said
conditions may be granted in accordance with Section 18.03.090 of the. Anaheim Municipal
Code.
4. That approval of this application constitutes approval of the proposed request only to the
extent that it complies with the Anaheim Municipal Zoning Code and any other applicable
City, State and Federal regulations. Approval does not include any action or findings as to
compliance or approval of the request regarding any other applicable ordinance, regulation
or requirement.
5. That the appropriate permit shall be obtained from the Building Division for the proposed six
(6) foot high wall.
