PLANNING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
Appeal - Minor Exception Permit No. 208 - Community Development Director
Shaw explained that on June 16, 2003, the Fence Committee voted to deny the
request for placement of a six foot wrought iron fence for property located at
1323 Webster Street on the Lemonwood Avenue frontage that has a setback of
2.5 feet (Bruce Campbell and Mabel Jones, appellants). The Fence Committee
reviewed this project and was concerned that this would set a bad precedent in
that all other fences are set back 1.5 feet and the available alternatives do not
destroy the usability of the front yard. The applicant has stated that the fence
was needed to protect their fruit trees which have been vandalized in recent
years. The applicant submitted plans for a replacement fence which showed a
15 foot setback, however the fence was built within 2-1/2 feet of the front
property line. This was discovered as the Building and Safety Division
inspected the fence and found that it did not satisfy the code requirement.
Mabel Jones addressed the City Council at length informing them she was not
aware of the property line or how many feet the fence was supposed to be built
back of. At the time the fence was being constructed, Mrs. Jones had cataracts
in both eyes and she had the contractor handle the required permits and
installation. She explained the fence was designed for special reasons. Her
doctor wants her to go for walks everyday as she suffers osteoporosis and
rheumatoid arthritis but that she has no one to go with her. The fence allows
her to walk in her yard by herself and provides visibility by neighbors if she
should require any assistance. She also is claustrophobic and the open wrought
iron fence alleviates that condition. A drainage ditch along her back yard
attracts all kinds of activity but with this fence, the people cannot get into her
yard. It was also designed to keep cats out. Mrs. Jones presented a petition to
the City Council from ten of her neighbors indicating they have no problem
with the new fence located at 1.323 Webster Street as it is a credit to the
neighborhood and asking the City to please approve it as it has been built.
September 2,2003
Councilmember Peppler moved to reverse the decision of the fence Committee,
grant the request for a six foot high wrought iron fence setback 2-1/2 feet from
the property line, and approve Minor except Permit No. 208 due to the
following circumstances as presented by Mayor Haws: we have an individual
who has presented evidence to the City Council of a specific medical condition
that mandates, in terms of an exercise regiment as well as claustrophobia,
special permission to have the fence in the location different from where it
normally would be; the circumstance where a homeowner has testified
convincingly that she had no prior knowledge whatsoever that the permit was
not being followed in its entirety and came to the City Council in a
circumstance where she has apparently no recourse for the moving of the fence
to the appropriate location; receipt of a petition containing a significant number
of the surrounding neighbors indicating they not only have no objection but
appear to feel that it is a credit to the neighborhood; and have received special
testimony from the applicant with regard to health and safety concerns within
her yard area as well as specific activities which have occurred on her property
which would mandate a special circumstance in terms of her own health and
safety especially given her advance age. Noting it will be a long time before the
City Council sees an applicant with this combination of special circumstance
come before us, Councilmember George seconded by motion which carried
unanimously. Mrs. Jones profusely thanked everyone, Councilmembers and
staff, for approving her request.
Policy - Environmental Studies and Assessments - Community Development
Director Shaw reported that at the June 17, 2003, meeting, the City Council
directed staff to revise the current procedures on the control of preparing,
administering and processing of environmental studies and assessments for
development projects and to bring back a policy and staffing plan to implement
the revised procedures for City Council consideration. Community
Development Director Shaw reviewed objectives identified in a revised process
and staffs recommendation to meet these objectives. Councilmembers
discussed the process of the proposed pre-application conference and concurred
that the list of approved environmental consultants and what should be included
in the studies should also be made available to the applicant at this level.
Councilmember George moved to adopt the following policy regarding the
control of preparing, administering and processing of environmental studies and
assessments for development projects for the purpose of compliance with the
California Environmental Quality Act:
1. The City shall utilize and approved list of environmental consultants.
2. All projects shall be evaluated to identify what environmental studies are
required and the information, analysis, and potential mitigation measures
needed based upon the evaluation.
3. All projects that are deemed to review an Environmental Impact Report and
all projects located in the Resource Preservation, Resource Conservation, or
Flood Control/Construction Aggregates Conservation/Habitat Preservation
September 2,2003
land use designated areas shall have environmental studies contracted
through the City and paid for by the applicant.
4. Projects not subject to an Environmental Impact Report and not located in
the Resource Preservation, Resource Conservation, or Flood
Control/Construction Aggregates Habitat/Habitat Preservation land use
designated areas shall have environmental studies done by consultants
selected from the City's approved list of consultants.
5. Prior to accepting an application as complete, all environmental studies shall
be completed to the satisfaction of staff..
Motion seconded by Councilmember Harrison and carried unanimously.
