A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA,
GRANTING A ZONE VARIANCE TO PERMIT
THE PLACING AND MAINTENANCE OF TWO
DUPLEXES AND GARAGES ON PROPERTY AT
920 SOUTH SECOND AVENUE IN SAID CITY.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, DOES
HEREBY DETERMINE AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That there was filed with the City Planning
Commission on March 27, 1961, the application of Dr. C. M. Baxter,
as owner, for a zone variance to permit the moving of two duplexes
from 142, 144, 146 and 148 East Foothill Boulevard to 920 South
Second Avenue and the maintenance and use of the said two duplexes
on said property in the City of Arcadia, County of Los Angeles,
State of California, specifically described as follows:
The southerly 80 feet of the westerly 120.46
feet of Lot 33, Tract No. 808, as shown on map
recorded in Book 16, pages 82 and 83, of Maps,
records of said County, excepting therefrom

ested persons were given full opportunity to be heard and to pre-
sent evidence. That at the conclusion of said hearing said City
Planning Commission adopted its certain Resolution No. 414 wherein
and whereby it recommended the granting of the requested variance

buildings to be moved onto the subject property are in good condi-
tion, attractive and built strictly in accordance with Arcadia's
standards; that the buildings presently located on subject propert,y
and to be removed therefrom are old and delapidated.
SECTION 3. That subject property is located directly
across an alley from C-l property, is 80 by 108.46 feet in size and
contains 8676 square feet of area. That although Zone R-2 ordinarily
allows but one duplex on a lot this size, subject property could be
used for a three or four family dwelling pursuant to Section 9253.1.3
of the Arcadia Municipal Code if it were not separated from the com-
mercial property by the existing alley. That the foregoing consti-
tutes an exceptional circumstance applicable to subject property
which does not apply generally to other properties in the same zone.
That the granting of the requested variance will not be detrimental
to the public health or welfare, will not be inconsistent with good
planning or with the present or prospective development of the
neighborhood in which the property is located, but rather. will im-
prove the area, and is necessary for the enjoyment of substantial
property rights possessed by other properties in the same zone and
vicinity.
SECTION 4. That for the foregoing reasons, a variance is
hereby granted to allow the moving of two duplexes and garages from
142, 144, 146 and 148 East Foothill Boulevard to property at 920
South Second Avenue hereinabove described and to permit the mainte-
nance and use thereon of the said two duplexes and garages upon the
following conditions:
a. That the buildings be placed on said property in
