THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, DOES
DETERMINE AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That there was filed with the City Planning
Commission, on October 7, 1964, the application of Vincent and
Josephine Gallina, as owners, for a zone variance to permit the re-
modeling and enlargement of a nonconforming structure on property
located at 1415, 1417 and 1421 South Sixth Avenue in the City o~
Arcadia, County of Los Angeles, State of California, which property
is described as follows:
The south 92.5 feet of the north 254.20 feet of the
easterly 284.92 feet of Lot 57, of Tract No. 808, per
map recorded in Book 16, page 82, of Maps in the
office of the County Recorder of Los Angeles County.
That after due notice as required by the Zoning Ordinance of said
City a public hearing was duly held on the matter by and before the
City Planning Commission on October 27, 1964, at which time all in-
terested persons were given a full opportunity to be heard and to
present evidence. That said City Planning Commission thereafter on
November 9, 1964, adopted its certain Resolution No. 536 wherein
and whereby it recommended the granting of the requested variance.
SECTION 2. That subject property is presently zoned R-l
but contains four separate dwelling units thereon constructed
prior to the applicability o~ the present one dwelling restriction.
That it is proposed to entirely remove one dwelling structure and

in the vicinity with more than one dwelling unit, the applicant will
remove one existing dwelling unit and thus make subject property more
closely conform to the use contemplated by the R-l Zone in comparison
to other similar properties in the vicinity. That the granting of the
variance will not be materially detrimental to the public health or
welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the zone or
vicinity in which it is located but rather will be beneficial thereto
by reducing the land use density and improving the appearance of an
existing dwelling unit. That the granting of a variance is necessary
for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right
of the applicant possessed by other property in the same zone and
vicinity, namely the improvement and better utilization of property
resulting from the reduction of the number of dwelling units on the
property. That the granting of such variance will not adversely
affect the comprehensive general plan but rather will enhance it by
more closely conforming' the use of the subject property to that con-
templated by the general plan.
SECTION~. That for the foregoing reasons a variance is
hereby granted. to permit the remodeling and enlargement of a noncon-
forming structure on the above described property upon the following
conditions:
L That the exis ting garage wi th a dwelling uni t above and
