SUBJECT: Administrative Variance No. 86-1 to allow a 15 foot encroachment into the required 50 foot street side setback at the southwest corner of Palomar Airport Road and Camino Vida Roble.
Dear Sirs:
The Planning Director has completed a review of your application for an administrative variance at the soutwest corner of Palomar Airport Road and Camino Vida Roble. After careful consideration of the circumstances surrounding this request, the Planning Director has determined that.the four findings required for granting an administrative variance can be made and, therefore,
request based on the following findings and
Findinas:
1.
2.
There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property or to the intended use that do not apply generally to the other property or class of use in the same vicinity and zone, because the lot is bounded on all sides by slopes. These slopes have in effect reduced
the buildable area by at least 30%. Development of the lot necessitates allowing the parking area to encroach into the
50 foot street side setback approximately 15 feet .
The requested variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right possessed by other property in the same vicinity and zone but which is denied to
the property in question because other planned industrial lots have been allowed to develop to their full potential.
But because of its unique situation, the slopes, development of the lot to its full potential requires encroachment into
the 50 foot setback.

3. The granting of this variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinty and zone in which the property is located because the encroachment will not be visible to the general public since heavy landscaping will be used to screen the parked vehicles.
4. The granting of this variance will not adversely affect the comprehensive General Plan because the use of the property is
consistent with the General Plan.
Conditions:
1. Approval is granted for AV-86-1, as shown on Exhibit "A", dated February 4, 1986, on file in the Planning Department and incorporated herein by reference.
You have the right to appeal this decision to the Planning Commission within ten days of receipt of this letter. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to call this office.
