" ". " 1200 ELM AVENUE CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA 92008 David L. Peterson 1531 Basswood Ave, Carlsbad, CA 92008 SUBJECT: Administrative Variance No. 83-2 - Request for an administrative variance to reduce the front yard . setback on a panhandle lot from 20 feet to 15 feet on -.property located at 3295 Valley Street in the R-1-7500 zone. .I Dear Mr. Peterson: The Land Use Planning Manager has completed a review of your application for an administrative variance at 3295 Valley Street. After careful consideration of the circumstances surrounding this request, the Land Use Planning Manager has determined that the four findings required for granting an administrative variance can be made and, therefore, approves this request based on the following findings and conditions: Findings: 1. 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 residence is located on a panhandle lot that will be created when a long narrow lot is subdivided, The original lot has frontage on two public streets and will be required to dedicate 60 feet for the construction of James Drive. 2. 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 adjacent properties have been developed in a similar manner with panhandle lots. i karch 22, 1983 Page Two 3. The granting of this variance will not be materially detri- mental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinty and zone in which the property is located because the residence for which this variance is requested is on an interior panhandle lot 46 feet from the nearest residence and will probably be removed when this lot is sold. 4. The granting of this variance will not adversely affect the comprehensive General Plan by setting an undesirable precedent because of the unusual shape of this lot, the need for an interior street, James Drive, and the age and size of the existing residence. Conditions : 1. Approval is granted for AV 83-2, as shown on Exhibit "A", dated March 8, 1983, on file in the Land Use Planning Office and incorporated herein by reference. 2. This variance is applicable only to the existing residence on Lot C of MS-601. Any future construction on this lot shall comply with the standards of the R-1-7500 zone. 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.
