A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF LA QUINTA, CALIFORNIA, ANNOUNCING FINDINGS AND
DENYING A VARIANCE FROM BUILDING HEIGHT
RESTRICTIONS
CASE NO. VAR 92-021
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of La Quinta, California,
did on the 14th day of April, 1992, hold a duly -noticed Public Hearing to consider
the request of JOHN GUENTHER for approval of a Variance to the building height
restriction in the SR Zone for a residence under construction located at 53-185
Avenida Bermudas, more particularly described as:
Lots 10, Block 204, Santa Carmelita at Vale La Quinta Unit #20
WHEREAS, said Variance request has complied with the requirements
of "The Rules to Implement the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970" ( County
of Riverside, Resolution 82-213, adopted by reference in City of La Quinta Ordinance
5), in that the Planning Director has determined that the project is categorically
exempt and no further documentation is deemed necessary; and,
WHEREAS, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments,
if any, of all interested persons desiring to be heard, said Planning Commission did
find the following facts and reasons to justify the denying of said Variance:
The application of the subject height requirements to the subject property will
not deprive it of privileges enjoyed by other similarly zoned property in the
area, since the height requirements may be reasonably attained.
Approval of the Variance as conditioned will constitute the granting of any
special privileges inconsistent with limitations on other identically zoned
property in the area.
There are no exceptional or extraordinary circumstances including shape,
size, location, and surroundings that apply to this property, that do not
apply to other property owners in the same zone.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the
City of La Quinta, California, as follows:
That the above recitations are true and correct and constitute the findings of
the Commission in this case.
2. That it does hereby deny said Variance 92-021 for the reasons set forth in this
Resolution and subject to the attached conditions.
PASSED, APPROVED, and ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the La
