story single-family residence.

with the General Plan, development standards of the applicable
district, design guidelines, and architectural criteria for specialized
area (e.g., theme areas, specific plans, community plans, boulevards,
or planned developments.
The project site, currently developed with a one-story, single-family
residence, was established before the adoption of the City's General
Plan and current Municipal Code. The adopted General Plan of
July 25, 1995, has a land use designation of Low Density Residential
(RL) (maximum three dwelling units/acre). The Application complies
with the City's General Plan objectives and strategies related to
maintaining the integrity of residential neighborhoods and open

Design Guidelines. There is no specific plan.
The proposed project, conforms to Municipal Code provisions, the site
coverage is less than 40 percent, is comparable with the existing
neighborhood, it meets the required height limitations and setbacks.
(f) The design and layout of the proposed development will not interfere
with the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or future
development, and will not create traffic or pedestrian hazards.
Kiowa Crest, Birdseye Drive and Baft Lane adequately serve the
project. These street) s are designed to handle minimum traffic created
by residential development.
The project site is currently developed with a one-story single-family
residence. The prop6sed project does not change the existing single-
family residence use and has a style consistent with surrounding
properties. Although; the existing structures setbacks do not conform
to current development standards the proposed addition does meet
current development standards. The existing structure front yard
setback is 14 feet and existing side yard setbacks are 5% feet and
7 feet. A six foot portion of what appears to be the front yard is City
property. Tract Map 31677 was recorded in 1977 and Los Angeles
County Code required a 20 foot front yard setback and allowed for the
six foot section of the public right of way adjacent to the front property
line to be computed toward the front yard setback. The improvements
to front of the structure include a 17 square foot addition that moves
the front door flush with the existing wall and a 35 square foot addition
for a bay window that extends the existing living room adding
articulation the front f�gade. These two additions are 32 feet from the
front property line and are in compliance with current development
standards. The project is not expected to unreasonably interfere with
the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or future development
with regard to view or',traffic.
(g) The architectural design of the proposed development is compatible
with the characteristics of the surrounding neighborhood and will
maintain and enhance the harmonious, orderly and attractive
development contemplated by Chapter 22.48, the General Plan, City
Design Guidelines, or any applicable specific plan.
The proposed project maintains the single-family residence's
contemporary architectural style, stucco and roof material The

feet for a bay window that enhances the architectural features of the
3
front facade. The Application design is consistent with the General
Plan, City's Design Guidelines and Municipal Code. There is no
specific plan.
(h) The design of the proposed development will provide a desirable
environment for its occupants and visiting public, as well as its
neighbors, through good aesthetic use of materials, texture, and color
that will remain aesthetically appealing.
The colors, materials, and textures proposed are similar to those
currently used and are complimentary to the existing homes within the
area while offering variety and low levels of maintenance.
(i) The proposed project will not be detrimental to the public health,
safety, or welfare or materially injurious (e.g., negative affect on
property values or resale(s) of property) to the properties or

improvements in the vicinity,
