of Ocean Street north of Pacific Avenue.
Mr. Don Rose gave the staff presentation.
Mr. Stanley Zipser, 808 Thayer, Los Angeles, applicant,
said he was in agreement with the staff report and had
nothing to add. He said his primary reason for requestins
the variance was that the carport area would be wider and
there would be a walkway into the building proper.
Commissioner Yerkes suggested reducing the 22 ft. garage
to 20.5 feet for width but Mr. Zipser preferred to
leave the width at 22 ft.
Chairman Rombotis pointed out that there is a greater
history of variances on Ocean Street because of the
buildings being so close together. The City has given
variances to allow this kind of development to occur.

the intensity of development along Ocean Street is a basic
fire hazard.

subject to the conditions of the staff report with the
following corrections: Page 3. Staff Recommendation 1.
