FINDINGS IN SUPPORT THEREOF - APN: 1062-051-01.
A. Recitals.
(i) Mr. Jung Hwang has filed an application for the issuance of
Variance No. 91-03 as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter
in this Resolution, the subject Variance request is referred to as "the
application."
(ii) On the 22nd of May 1991, the Planning Commission of the City of
Rancho Cucamonga conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application
and concluded said hearing on that date.
(iii) All legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this Resolution
have occurred.
B. Resolution.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby found, determined, and resolved by the
Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows:
1. This Commission hereby specifically finds that all of the facts
set forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct.
2. Based upon substantial evidence presented to this Commission
during the above-referenced public hearing on May 22, 1991, including written
and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby
specifically finds as follows:
(a) The application applies to property located on Wilson
Avenue west of Beryl Street, south of Heritage Park, with a street frontage of
664.34 feet and lot depth of 1,296.47 feet and is presently unimproved; and

(b) The property to the north of the subject site is Heritage
Park, the property to the south of that site consists of an existing single
family residential subdivision, the property to the east is single family
residential and vacant, and the property to the west is single family
residential; and
(c) Variances for the minimum lot area and minimum corner lot
width for Lot 28 are needed due to the pre-determined alignment of Wilson
Avenue and the recommendations of Advisory Committees for making this area a
numbered lot, versus a lettered lot, for maintenance reasons; and
(d) The reduced lot widths for Lots 11 and 14 are created by
the need for the cul-de-sac bulb for Mustang Road and, in the case of Lot 14,
the alignment of Wilson Avenue; and
(e) The Variance for minimum net average lot area from
22,500 to 22,228 square feet stems from the recommendations of the Advisory
Committees to make the 14,502 square foot Lot 28 a numbered lot, thereby
reducing the average lot area below the required minimum average.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission
during the above-referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of
facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above, this Commission hereby finds and
concludes as follows:
(a) That strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of
the specified regulations would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary
physical hardship inconsistent with the objectives of the Development Code.
(b) That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances
or conditions applicable to the property involved or to the intended use of
the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same
district.
(c) That strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of
the specified regulation would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by
the owners of other properties in the same district.
(d) That the granting of the Variance will not constitute a
grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other
properties classified in the same zone.
(e) That the granting of the Variance will not be detrimental
to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties
or improvements in the vicinity.
4. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs
1, 2, and 3 above, this Commission hereby approves the application.
5. The Secretary to this Commission shall certify to the adoption
of this Resolution.
