SECTION 1. That there was filed with the City Planning Com-

Sugar, as Lessee, for a zone variance to permit the erection of a
neon roof sign, eight feet by fourteen feet, on property in the City

Lot 25, Tract No. 6641, per map recorded in Book 126, page 67, of
r~aps, records of Los Angeles County, located at 600 West Las Tunas

SECTION 3. That at the hearings before the City Planning
Commission and the City Council, three protests were made to the
granting of the requested variance, two of which protestants pro-
fessed to lack knowledge that the property had even been zoned so
as to permit a restaurant; one protestant on property to the rear
objected on the grounds that the proposed sign might shine on his
property.
SECTION 4. That the variance for a post sign to be
erected upon the property immediately west of the above described
property has already been recommended by the Planning Commission
and granted by the City Council. That the granting of a variance
to permit the erection and operation of a sign of the size and type
and upon the conditions hereinafter recommended will not be materi-
ally deterime~tal to the public health or welfare or injurious to
the property or improvements in the zone or vicinity in which the
subject property is located.
SEC'l~ION 5. Tha t the Zoning Ordinanc e permits the c onduc t
of a restaurant upon the subject property and such a restaurant has
been constructed and is being operated thereon; that it will not be
inconsistent ~r1th good planning practice or with the provisions of
the master zoning plan, nor will it adversely affect the comprehen-
sive general plan to permit a relatively small informational si~n
upon the commercial establishment erected upon the subject property;
that the requested variance is reasonably necessary for the preser-
vat ion and en,;oyment of a substantial property right of the appli-
cant.
for

hereby granted to permit the erection and operation of an identi-
fication sign upon the following terms and conditions:
