REQUEST: Petitioner requests waiver of the following under authority of
Code Section 18.12.060.050 to construct a pool house:
SECTION 18.22.063.010 - Minimum structural setback.

property line; 8 feet proposed)..
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 a public hearing having ,been duly. noticed for and held on the
date set forth above, I do hereby find:-
1. That the proposal is minimal because the portion of the pool house which
encroaches into the 15-foot setback area amounts to less than 79s of the
entire setback area, and that the adjacent property is vacant and the two
.properties are separated;by a row of Eucalyptus trees and a future 6-foot
'.high block wall;
2. That there are special circumstances applicable to the property such as
size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, which do not apply to
:other identically zoned properties in the vicinity; and
3. That strict application of the Zoning ,Code deprives the property of
:privileges enjoyed by-other properties in identical zoning classification
in the vicinity.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT FINDING: That-the Zoning Administrator
has reviewed the proposal for waiver of minimum `structural setback to
construct a pool house on ;an...irregularly-shaped parcel of land consisting of
approximately l acre, having a frontage of approximately 179 feet on the west
side of Eldorado Lane, having a maximum depth of approximately 184 feet, being
located approximately 600 feet north of the centerline of Cerro Vista Drive,
and further described as 111 Eldorado Lane; and that'the Planning Director or
his authorized representative has determined that the proposed project falls
within the definition of Categorical Exemptions, Class 5, as defined in the
State EIR Guidelines and is, therefore, categorically exempt from the
requirement. to prepare an EIR.
