WHEREAS, the subject property is surrounded by a mixture of residential uses in the Residential High Density zone, (RHD); and WHEREAS, on November 28, 1990, the Planning Commission of the city of Seal Beach, at a meeting thereof, considered Minor Plan Review 13-90; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission makes the following findings: 1. The addition of four (4) dens to the subject property constitutes the addition of four (4) bedrooms, as defined in S28-210 of the Code. 2. The addition of four (4) bedrooms will intensify the use of the subject property. 3. In rental units there is a high correlation between the number of bedrooms and the number of occupants. An increase of four (4) bedrooms on the subject property has a high probability of increasing the number of tenants and thus, increasing demand for the already substandard parking.
