A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF ARCADIA,CALIFORNIA,

AVENUE IN SAID CITY UPON SPECIFIED

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 the lOth day of August, 1961, the application of
Ignazio Guardalabene and Hazel M. Guardalabene, as owners, for a
zone variance to permit the erection of one additional dwelling
unit on property at 517 to 519~ South Third Avenue in said City of
Arcadia, County of Los Angeles, State of California, described as
follows:
Part of Block 60, Santa Anita Tract, as shown
on map recorded in Book 34, pages 41 and 42,
Miscellaneous Records of said County:
Beginning 202.41 feet south from the southwest
corner of Eldorado Street and Third Avenue;
thence South 87.11 feet; thence West 205 feet;
thence North 136.11 feet; thence East 87 feet;
thence South 49 feet; thence East 118 feet to
the point of beginning,
That after notice required by the Zonjng Ordinance of said City,
a public hearing was duly held on the matter by and before said
Commission on the 12th day of September, 1961, at which time all
interested persons were given a full opportunity to be heard and
to present evidence. That at the conclusion of said hearing said

after due notice, at which time all interested persons were given
full opportunity to be heard and to present evidence.
SECTION 2. That subject property is an L-shaped lot on
the west side of Third Avenue between Eldorado Street and Genoa
Street with a frontage of 87,11 feet on Third Avenue and an area
of 22,120 square feet; that it is zoned R-2 and developed with four
living units. That although there is not available the additional
7500 square feet required for either a duplex or two single-family
residences, there is proportionately more than enough area for one
additional dwelling unit. However, there is no provision in the
Zoning Ordinance for the addition of one single-family dwelling on
less than the full 7500 square feet required for a duplex or for
two single-family residences. That the above constitute excep-
tional or extraordinary circumstances applicable to subject prop-
erty or to the intended use thereof that do not apply generally to
the property or class of use in the same zone or vicinity; that
the variance is necessary for the preservation of any property right
9f the applicant possessed by other property in the same zone or
vicinity; that the granting of the requested variance will not con-
stitute poor planning practice and would not be injurious to prop-
erty and improvements in the neighborhood nor to the comprehensive
general plan.
SECTION 3. That for the foregoing reasons, a variance is
hereby granted to
on property at 517
allow the construction of one additional dwelling
1
to 51~ South Third Avenue hereinabove described
upon the condition that a 12t-foot driveway be constructed to the
garages and parking area now existing on the southerly portion of
the lot.
