A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING
COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH
RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL
APPROVAL OF ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT 93-
1, DELETING SECTION 28-2407. (A)(4)(c),
RELATING TO THE ADDITION OF BEDROOMS
TO NONCONFORMING RESIDENCES WITH
TANDEM PARKING
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH DOES
HEREBY RESOLVE:
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
on September 14, 1992, the City Council approved Zone Text Amendment
92-5, which substantially amended Section 28-2407 of the Code, relating
to standards for additions and remodeling of nonconforming residential
structures; and
during the Planning Commission and City Council hearings concerning
ZTA 92-5, City staff understood that Section 28-2407. (A)(4)(c) was to be
removed to permit the addition of new bedrooms in conjunction with a
proposed major remodel approved pursuant to Section 28-2407. (A)( 4); and
Section 28-2407.(A)(4) permits major expansions and remodels to
nonconforming residential structures which are nonconforming due to
density and approved tandem parking. In such circumstances the subject
property is considered to meet all off-street parking requirements and a
prohibition on the addition of bedrooms seems unreasonable, since a
conforming residence which meets all off-street parking reqUirements is
not prohibited from adding bedrooms; and
City staff has reviewed the provisions of the~, and feels this section
was not intended by the Planning Commission or the City Council and is
requesting the deletion of the subject section; and
a request was made by a project proponent for the Planning Commission
to consider a development applicatIOn in accordance with the above stated
understanding of this particular section of the~; and

The Planning Commission and City Council considered a staff report
regarding this matter on March 3, 1993, and March 8, 1993, respectively,
and concurred with the recommendation of staff in regards to the
recommended deletion of this section; and
the subject zone text amendment would apply to all properties within the
City which are currently nonconforming due to density and the provision
of tandem parking; and
the proposed Zone Text Amendment is Categorically Exempt from the
provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant
to Section 15301(a), (d) and (e), and Section 15305; and
a duly noticed public hearing was held by the Planning Commission on
April 7, 1993 to consider Zone Text Amendment 93-1; and
the said Commission held said aforementioned Public Hearing; and
at said public hearing there was written evidence received by the Planning
Commission, with no persons appeanng to speak on the matter; and
the Planning Commission makes the following findings:
1. The proposed Zone Text Amendment wiII apply to all properties
within the City which are currently nonconforming due to density
and the provision of tandem parking, allowing the addition of
bedrooms.
2. The proposed Zone Text Amendment wiII place nonconforming
residences and conforming residences which provide all reqUIred
