Dear Applicant:
The public comment period for the Notice of Pending Decision ended on May 28,

determined that the design of the new single family residence is consistent with
the Single Family Design Guidelines. Therefore, the Development Services
Department has conditionally approved the single-family design review project
dated May 8, 2020, for a new two-story 4,218 square foot home with an attached
447 square foot two-car garage and an attached 258 square foot one-car garage
at 509 Coyle Avenue, subject to the following conditions:
• The point where the roof rafter meets the exterior wall shall not exceed 9’-
6” for the first floor and 8’-0” for the second floor. The plans submitted for
Building Services plan check shall comply with this condition.
• The project shall comply with the City’s Water Efficient Landscaping
Ordinance (WELO). The application shall be submitted with the plans for
plan check in Building Services.
• The applicant/property owner shall comply with all City requirements
regarding building safety, fire prevention, detection, suppression,
emergency access, public right-of-way improvements, parking, water
supply and water facilities, sewer facilities, trash reduction and recycling
requirements, and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) measures to the satisfaction of the Building Official, Fire Marshal,
Public Works Services Director, and Planning & Community Development
Administrator, or their respective designees. Compliance with these
requirements is to be determined by having fully detailed construction plans
submitted for plan check review and approval by the foregoing City and
employees.
• The Applicant shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City of
Arcadia and its officials, officers, employees, and agents from and against
any claim, action, or proceeding against the City of Arcadia, its officials,
officers, employees or agents to attack, set aside, void, or annul any
approval or conditional approval of the City of Arcadia concerning this
project and/or land use decision, including but not limited to any approval
or conditional approval of the City Council, Planning Commission, or City
Staff, which action is brought within the time period provided for in
Government Code Section 66499.37 or other provision of law applicable to
this project or decision. The City shall promptly notify the Applicant of any
claim, action, or proceeding concerning the project and/or land use
decision and the City shall cooperate fully in the defense of the matter. The
City reserves the right, at its own option, to choose its own attorney to
represent the City, its officials, officers, employees, and agents in the
defense of the matter.
• Copies of the Conditions of Approval shall be included on the plans (full
size). The sheet(s) are for information only to all parties involved in the
construction/grading activities and are not required to be wet

There is a ten (10) day appeal period for this application. To file an appeal, a completed Appeal
Application form must be submitted to the Community Development Division along with a $600.00

Approval of SFADR 19-33 shall not be of effect unless the property owner and applicant have
executed and filed the enclosed Acceptance Form to indicate awareness and acceptance of these
conditions of approval. The Acceptance Form is due now and if it is not received by July 1, 2020,
this approval will become null and void.
This design approval shall expire in one year (June 12, 2021) from the effective date unless plans
are submitted to Building Services for plan-check, a building permit is issued and the construction
is diligently pursued, a certificate of occupancy has been issued, or the approval is renewed. The
final plans must be consistent with the approved design concept plans and any conditions of
approval. Any inconsistency from the approved design concept plans may preclude the issuance
of a building permit.
An extension may be granted by the Development Services Director or designee, or the Review
Authority that approved the project for a maximum period of one (1) year from the initial expiration
date. An extension can only be granted if the required findings can be made. Please note that
acceptance of an extension request does not indicate approval of an extension.
A building permit must be obtained prior to any construction activity. Please contact Building
Services at (626) 574-5416 to determine the type of documentation, plans, and fees for the
appropriate permit. This approval letter must be presented to Building Services to initiate the
