THE ADOPTION OF AN ALTERNATIVE TO GIVE LEGAL STATUS
TO CERTAIN R-l DWELLINGS WHICH CURRENTLY EXCEED THE
MAXI}D[M LOT COVERAGE PROVISIONS OF THE ZONING
ORDINANCE.
WHEREAS, in
provisions of the
Besch does report
the matter of dwellings which exceed the maximum lot coverage
zoning ordinance, the Planning Commission of the City of Seal
as follows:
1. On August 14, 1972, the City Council referred the matter of certain over built
homes to the Planning Commission for study and requested that action be under-
taken to resolve the situation at the earliest opportunity.
2. Each of the 8 alternatives contained in Exhibit "A" was discussed and their
various merits and detriments were considered during a series of Planning
Commission meetings held during August, September, October and November, 1972.
3. After consideration of the 8 alternatives, numbers 1 and 7 were further
discussed with a view toward choosing a fair and equitable solution to the
lot coverage problem.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission findings are as follows:
.
1. The Planning Commission is of the opinion that current lot coverage requirements
contained within the zoning ordinance are desireable.
2. The Planning Commission is of the opinion that, since the homes were overbuilt
by the developer, the individual homeowner should not have to be burdened with
an illegal home. Therefore, the status of the homes should be changed from
illegal to legal.
NOW, TIIEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City of
Seal Beach does hereby recommend to the City Council that;
1. There should be no increase in the 40% lot coverage requirements.

issued, be given a time limit of 90 days for which to apply for a variance.
3. That the City Council waive the variance fee for those homes in College Park
East so identified in number 2 above.
ADOPTED AND APPROVED this 15th day of November, 1972.
