Dear Mr Hill: The Planning Director has completed a review of your application for an Administrative Variance, for an 8’ retaining wall and reduced sideyard setback, for a storage structure, from the required 8’ to 2’ at 3317 Cadencia Street. After careful consideration of the circumstances surrounding this request, the Planning Director has determined that the four findings required for granting an Administrative Variance cannot be made and, therefore, DJINIES this request based on the following findings and conditions. 1. 2. 3. There are no exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property or to the intended use that do not apply gendy to the other property or class of use in the same vicinity and zone because surrounding lots have similar topography. The lots in the area are graded such that every parcel has a slope to the adjacent lot. The lot is also similar in size and shape to adjacent lots in the area. The requested vaTiance is not 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 no other properties in the area have eight foot retaining walls or structures in the required side yard setback. All properties in the surrounding area must also comply with the Zoning ordinance. The granting of this variance will be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located because the granting of the Administrative Variance will set a precedence and other propexties may request the same privilege as granted to the property in question n 2075 Las Palmas Drive - Carlsbad, California 92009-1576 - (619) 438-1 161 @ . AV 91-12 - HILL PROJECT OCTOBER 14,1992 PAGE 2 4. The granting of this variance will not adversely affect the comprehensive General plan because the site is developed with a single family home in a residentially designated area.
