MOTION by Jessneri SECOND by Suggs to approve the Minutes of
August 16, 1989 to be amended at page 3, at the second-to-
last paragraph which Mr. Jessner would 11ke stated verbatlm:
"Mr. Jessner sald I don't see how ... I myself
could vote In favor of this Varlance. However, I thlnk
we have a problem Wl th regard to all the properties
along Paclflc Coast Hlghway. In fact, I know we do.
And thls was polnted out to us also by the City Councl1
when they dlrected us, the Commisslon, to reVlew the
helght 11mltatlons along Paclflc Coast Hlghway and some
of the other streets that have heavy trafflc usage
rlght behlnd the homes. ThlS ltem - I don't know lf
there's any klnd of a schedule for us to reVlew this,
.

does the staff know? On the fence he1ghts? It
probably hasn't been because th1s was caught up w1thin
the hear1ngs W1th the Mola propert1es. I think we have
d1fferent problems 1n d1fferent areas. When th1S came
before the Comm1SS1on we recommended to the
Counc11, at our f1rst reV1ew of 1t, that we look into
th1S (ra1s1ng of the walls and he1ghts) in depth to
help the people who (llve) along these streets. I...
see a correlat1on between what's been done here and
th1S fence he1ght request. I would 11ke to see some
sort of workshops arranged between the people 11 v1ng
along Pac1f1c Coast H1ghway and the Plann1ng Comm1ss1on
to see exactly all the problems. ReV1ew some potent1al
Solut1ons to what they have - because they do have a
problem there and 1t's recogn1zed. Maybe, through this
workshop and some suggest10ns and recommendat1ons that
come out of th1S exchange the Comm1SS1on and C1ty
Counc11 could come to an agreement with regard to
help1ng out these people. Maybe the fence height lsn't
the answer. And this was the question we had - the
Comm1ss1on. Maybe allow1ng some sort of a cant11ever-
staY1ng at the e1ght (8') foot he1ght 11m1t that's
allowed here. But maybe allow1ng a cant11ever from
this W1 th a roof-type th1ng, maybe that's better than
gOlng up a stra1ght ten (10') feet 1n he1ght. Th1S
tyPe of structure takes on that appearance. If we deny
th1S Var1ance I would hate to see 1t torn down unt11
1t's establ1shed that th1S lS not what the C1ty wants.
After we hold these hearings. I'd (now) 11ke to hear
what the other Comm1ss1oners th1nk".

PLAN REVIEW
3. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 8-89
12147 SEAL BEACH BOULEVARD
BAJA BILL'S RESTAURANT
Staff Report
Lee Whlttenberg dellvered the staff report. ThlS lS a request by
appllcant, CorWln Bales, to obtaln an on-sale beer and Wlne
permlt ln conJunctlon wlth an existing restaurant at 12147 Seal
Beach Boulevard - BaJa Blll's. Staff recommended denlal based
prlmarlly on Chlef of Pollce Stearn's concerns that the slte was
a gatherlng place for local teenagers (especlally after a Los
Alamltos Hlgh School football games) when lt was a Taco Bell.
The concern lS belng able to control the consumptlon of alcohollC
beverages on the premlses to persons of the proper age when there
lS an outdoor dlnlng area that's qUlte large ln relation to the
total seatlng capaclty of the restaurant. Another concern is a
staff comment that thlS restaurant lS baslcally a fast food type
of faclll ty and lS thlS a proper type of use for alcoholic
beverage sales? Champs Restaurant lS slmllar and does have an
ABC 11cense but Champs has a much larger lndoor dlnlng area.
If the Commlsslon approves thlS perml t, staff has recommended
flfteen (15) condltlons prlmarlly addressing control of alcohollC
beverages.
Commlsslon Comments
There were no CommlSSlon comments.
PubllC Hearlng Opened
CorWln Bales * Owner of BaJa Bllls (No Address Glven)
Mr. Bales lntroduced hlmself as the new owner of BaJa Bllls
Restaurant, statlng he took over ln June 1989. He bought from
Taco Bell and has Slnce done extenslve renovation to the
bUlldlng. The patlo now has a four (4') foot wall and lS
completely enclosed havlng only one (1) entrance at the front.
.
Page 4 - Plannlng Commlsslon Mlnutes of September 6, 1989
He sald everybody acknowledges there was a problem when lt was a
Taco Bell. There lS not wlde open access from the parklng lot.
He presented three letters from Dorothy PhllllP, Manager of
Rossmoor BUSlness Center, Byron Wllloughby of De Benedlctls
Realty and Carl Kendall from Career Academy of Beauty In support
of Mr. Bales permlt. (These are attached for the Record). These
letters state that Slnce Taco Bell has left there have been no
problems wlth teen-age hangouts. Mr. Bales sald he talked to the
ACtl Vl tles Department at Los Alaml tos Hlgh School. The home
football games begln at 7:30 p.m. and last 2.5 hours. At 10:00
p.m. he lS closed. He would not be open for teenagers therefore.
Chalrman Sharp sald he had seen BaJa Bllls and lt'S spotlessly
clean and well arranged. Addltlonally the patlo wall lS hlgher.
Commlssloner Rullo asked Mr. Bales lf he would be wllllng to
termlnate the sale of alcohol at 8: 00 p.m. yet still close at
10:00 p.m.. Mr. Bales sald he would prefer to serve untll 10:00
p.m. ... he would questlon the dlfference 8:00 p.m. or 10:00 p.m.
would make.
.
Commlssloner Rullo sald the nearby DaVlOS Restaurant has an
outdoor patlo wlth one entry. Mr. Bales sald Davlos' wall lS SlX
(6") taller but 1 t has a planter on top. Mr. Bales would not
mlnd puttlng a planter on hlS wall to make BaJa Bllls the same
helght as Davlos.
Commlsslon Suggs asked Mr. Bales how many employees he had. Mr.
Bales sald four (4) employees and that he's there four (4)
evenlngs per week. Someone who has authorlty lS In charge at all
tlmes.
Commlssloner Jessner asked Mr. Bales how he proposed stopplng
patrons from walklng off the premlses wlth beer? Mr. Bales sald
he would be servlng beer/wlne In glass contalner as lS requlred
by the ABC. Addltlonally, the employees would be monltorlng by
cleanlng tables etc.
Chalrman Sharp sald he V1Sl ted Champs Restaurant and was told
that Taco Bell malnly had teenagers runnlng thelr establlshment
wlth no adult supervlslon. Champs felt they would not have that
problem agaln. Mr. Sharp sald he talked to Chlef Stearns who
felt that thlS new owner has not operated durlng a school year
and that the Chlef would wlthdraw hlS obJectlons lf the
CommlSSlon would put thlS request on hold for SlXty (60) days to
glve two months lnto the school year for addltlonal reVlew of the
buslness operatlon. We could see what/lf any problems mlght
occur.

There was no one In the audlence wlshlng to speak for or agalnst
CUP 8-89; the PubllC Hearlng was closed.

Commlsslon Comments
Commlssloner Rullo sald he felt there was no equall ty In the
staff's recommendatlon or the Chlef of Pollce's comments. Denlal
of thlS permlt would be penallzlng thls buslnessman. If the ABC
wlll glve hlm a llcense the CommlSSlon should not penallze hlm.
H1S wall lS up and he has one entry. It would be a detrlment to
shut down at 8:00 p.m. The CommlSSlon has not turned down beer
and Wlne llcense Slnce Mr. Rullo's been on the CommlSSlon and he
saw no reason to turn thlS one down.
CommlSSloner Jessner sald he sees thlS restaurant as strlctly a
fast food take-out place because of ltS Slze and deslgn. He sald
he thought (grantlng the CUP) would be settlng a precedent for
thlS type of buslness. He felt the staff and Pollce Chlef
brought up "very ratlonal reasons on thlS". He lS opposed to
grantlng the CUP.
CommlSSloner Suggs sald the answer to thls may be to hold lt In
abeyance for slxty (60) days and the let the Chlef of Pollce make
another observatlon.
Chalrman Sharp, although he had closed the PubllC Hearlng, asked
Mr. Bales to answer another questlon. Mr. Sharp asked lf Mr.
Bales would have any obJectlons to the CommlSSlon placlng CUP
8-89 on hold for Slxty days to see how thlngs work after school
starts. Mr. Bales sald he would obJect to a delay Slnce he's
been wal tlng Slnce June. He sald he's spoken to ABC and gone
through thelr procedures and they have no problem glvlng hlm the
llcense as long as 1 t' s approved by CUP through the Cl ty.
However, he would walt the Slxty days rather than rlsk not
gettlng the llcense. Mr. Sharp advlsed hlm that lf he was turned
down he would have to re-apply. He could appeal to the Cl ty
Councll that carrles a fee. Mr. Bales asked lf the Commlsslon
could make lt thlrty (30) days as an observatlon perlod.
Commlssloner Rullo sald he felt very strongly that thlS
CommlSSlon lS delvlng too far lnto Mr. Bales' buslness and thlS
lS not equal treatment (to hlS buslness) - thlS man lS belng
turned agalnst because of somethlng we don' t know lS gOlng to
happen. The ABC wlll glve hlm a llcense and he's done everythlng
to rebulld hlS place up. Mr. Suggs restated hlS concern over the
Chlef's letter that thlS mlght be contrary to the Cl ty' s best
lnterest. DaVlOS and Champs may have more seats lnslde but they
stlll have as many seats outslde as Mr. Bales does.
Chalrman Sharp referred to the letter from De Benedltctls Realty
WhlCh sald" lack of empty beer cans and bottles In our
parklng area each mornlng." Mr. Sharp noted these contalners
must come from a local llquor store as Taco Bell would not be
able to sell alcohol In that type contalner.
.
Page 6 - Plannlng Commlsslon Mlnutes of Sseptember 6, 1989
Mr. Whl ttenberg sald from the Cl ty' s vlewpolnt the man has a
rlght to do buslness ln a way that lt does not cause harm to the
Clty. In thlS case, the Chlef of Pollce lndlcated that past thlS
locatlon has caused a detrlment to the communlty. H1S concern lS
thlS mlght return and not be able to be handled by the new owner.
There lS an area of uncertalnty here and the Clty has no
experience record wlth Mr. Bales to date. The other restaurant
locatlons mentloned probably dld not cause a problem to the Clty
ln the past. If the llcense lS granted and the slte becomes a
problem to the Cl ty the CUP revocatlon process lS long and
dlfflcult.

5. VARIANCE 9-89
308 HARVARD LANE
Staff Report
.
Mr. Wh1ttenberg presented the staff report, Wh1Ch 1S a request by
the app11cant, Gordon Logan, to vary from the 40% lot coverage
perm1tted by Code 1n College Park West; he wants to bU1ld an
add1t1on to h1s house.
Staff noted College Park East and the Mar1na H1ll areas currently
allow 45% lot coverage but College Park West allows 40% lot
coverage at th1s t1me.
Staff sa1d there has been an unperm1tted garage converS1on on the
subJect property. Mr. Wh1ttenberg emphas1zed that today a perm1t
was found (through records on m1crof1che at Rockwell) for a 20' x
20' carport structure on th1s property 1n May 1979. The perm1t
does not 1nd1cate any 1nspect1ons were done and therefore staff
cannot determ1ne 1f the carport has been constructed 1n
accordance w1th the plans wh1ch were subm1tted (but that cannot
be located). It cannot be determ1ned 1f the structure meets
current bU1ld1ng requ1rements although 1nspect1on by Mr.
Wh1 ttenberg shows 1 t looks sound. (A copy of the newly-found
perm1t was g1ven to each Comm1ss1oner. Copy attached w1th these
M1nutes for reference). Staff attached Ord1nance No. 1153, dated
9-12-83 wh1ch amends the Code to requ1re a CUP for bU1ld1ng a
carport. Before 1983 a carport structure was perm1tted as an
automat1c r1ght of the property owner and no spec1al approvals
were requ1red through the C1ty.
. Staff recommended den1al of th1s var1ance.
.
Page 9 - Plannlng Commlsslon Mlnutes of September 6, 1989
Commlsslon Comments
Commlssloner Rullo noted the garage has been converted to part of
the 11vlng space of the home. staff can flnd no permlts for thlS
work.
Commlssloner Jessner asked staff why the lot coverage differences
eXlst between College Park East and West? Mr. Whlttenberg sald a
number of years ago the Hill resldents approached the Clty about
changlng the lot coverage and a change was made. Why thlS area
was not lncluded at that tlme lS not known. Mr. Fraser sald that
ln the early 1970's both College Park East and West requested lot
coverage changes to 45%, but a College Park West resldent
generated OppOSl tlon to thls and 1 t dld not go through. So
College Park West remalned at 40% and College Park East went up
to 45%. College Park West has about 360 homes.
Chalrman Sharp noted thlS partlcular lot backs up to a dralnage
dltch, the 405 Freeway and the 7th Street off-ramp. Therefore
thlS only effects the property on elther slde.
.
PubllC Hearlng Opened
Gordon R. Logan * 308 Harvard Lane
Mr. Logan sald he wants thlS addltlon for hlS mother's health
condltlon. He apologlzed for the "early start" and sald lt was
hlS fault. He had a nelghborhood petltlon wlth 46 slgnatures
deslrlng to brlng College Park West to the 45% 11ml tatlon. He
sald hlS cement walk was mlstakenly included ln hlS lot coverage
WhlCh would subtract 117 square feet from 399 square feet thus
maklng hlS request for 281 square feet. He noted hlS lS the
owner-bul1der and hlS workers had no perml ts. He sald hlS
orlglnal contractor fell off a ladder and never returned to thlS
Job.
Greg Wl1er * 233 Stanford
Mr. Wl1er spoke ln favor of thlS varlance and supported 45% lot
coverage.

Mr. Fraser sald he lS a nelghbor and supports thlS Varlance

Page 10 - Plann1ng Comm1ss1on M1nutes of September 6, 1989
No one further w1shed to speak for or aga1nst th1S var1ance and
the Publ1C Hear1ng was closed.
Comm1ss1on Comments
Cha1rman Sharp suggested that the Comm1SS1on grant th1S var1ance
up to the 45%, not the extra 1%, w1th the st1pulat1on 1n (that
when the property was sold that 1t be restored to 1tS orig1nal
status). And at the same t1me the Comm1SS1on would ask staff to
prepare a resolut1on from the Comm1SS1on to present to the C1ty
Counc11 that College Park West be rezoned to 45% lot coverage.
Th1S would make Mr. Logan's add1 t10n legal and the st1pulat1on
could be removed from h1S deed.
.
Comm1ss1oner Rullo sa1d he apprec1ated Mr. Logan's problem w1th
an a1l1ng fam1ly member but that he had a problem of Mr. Logan's
bU1ld1ng w1th no perm1ts. The perm1t that was found today showed
no 1nspect1on. John Fraser 1nter]ected that Mr. Logan's house lS
very un1que 1n that "based on what plans we (the C1ty) has 1t'S
almost as 1f h1S property doesn't eX1st. We don't even have an
or1g1nal house plan for that property. I don't know what's
happened to the perm1ts on that property over the years ..." Mr.
Rullo asked where was the perm1t for the foundat1on he has
recently poured? Mr. Logan, eV1dently, was gOlng to bU1ld
w1thout perm1ts. He only stopped when a BU1ld1ng Inspector found
h1m out. Mr. Rullo stressed h1S problem W1 th people bU1ld1ng
w1thout perm1ts and th1nks there should be some sort of recourse
when the C1ty f1nds someone bU1ld1ng without perm1ts.
.
Comm1ss1oner Jessner d1scussed the three State mandated f1nd1ngs
and felt these f1nd1ngs could not be met, 1n Wh1Ch case he felt
he could not vote 1n favor of th1s Var1ance. He sa1d he d1d not
know 1f 1t was a val1d reason to grant a var1ance w1th regard to
the suggest10n that the property be restored on sale. How would
th1S be enforced? Mr. Sharp sa1d he would have to take the
carport out and restore the garage to a double garage and then 1t
would be 1n conformance - even at 40%. Therefore, Mr. Logan
would not have to tear out th1S add1t1on. Mr. Wh1ttenberg sa1d
the covenant lS recorded on the deed and at the t1me of a
property transfer C1 ty cond1 t10ns would have to be met before
escrow could close. Th1S lS eas1ly tracked by any escrow
company. Mr. Jessner would 11ke to see a hear1ng W1 th the
potent1al of 1ncreas1ng th1S area's lot coverage to 45% Wh1Ch
would allow th1s add1t1on w1thout the need for a var1ance.
D1Scuss1on ensued about the Comm1ss1on's denY1ng a var1ance to a
fam1ly w1th a hand1capped Ch1ld and that sett1ng a precedent for
th1s den1al. Mr. Wh1ttenberg sa1d each case should stand on 1tS
own mer1t w1th other dec1s1ons be1ng gU1del1nes only. Mr. Rullo
sa1d 1f you deny a var1ance for one propertyjappl1cant you should
deny th1S var1ance for the same reason. How can~we~y there lS
no precedent set?
