MODIFICATION NO. PC AM 21-01 WITH A CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION
UNDER THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA)
FOR SETBACK MODIFICATIONS TO THE FIRST AND SECOND STORY
ADDITIONS TO THE EXISTING TWO-STORY RESIDENCE AT 1436
OAKLAWN ROAD
Recommendation: Adopt Resolution No. 2077
SUMMARY
The Applicant, Johnny Lee is requesting three different modifications as part of a major
remodel to the existing two-story house at 1436 Oaklawn Road. The proposed addition
will add 798 square feet to the first floor and 1,704 square feet to the second floor. The
proposed modifications will consist of: 1) A request to further encroach into the existing
legal non-conforming front yard setback by 2 feet to accommodate a new front covered
porch on the first floor, resulting in a front yard setback of 48’-3”; 2) A second floor front
yard setback that ranges from 50’-3” to 54’-9”, whereas 60’-0” is required; and 3) A 17’-0”
northerly second story side yard setback, whereas 20’-0” is required. The project was
approved by the Santa Anita Oaks Homeowners Association Architectural Review Board
(ARB) on September 24, 2020, and an amendment to their project was approved on April
17, 2021. It is recommended that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2077
(Attachment No. 1) and find the project is Categorically Exempted under the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
BACKGROUND
The subject property is a 28,660 square foot interior lot within the Santa Anita Oaks
Homeowners Association area. The property is currently improved with a 3,149 square
foot, two-story single family residence with an attached two-car garage, and a 264 square
foot pool house that were built in 1951 (see Figure 1). The property is zoned R-0, Very

Low Density Residential– refer to Attachment No. 2 for an aerial photo with zoning
information and photos of the subject property and surrounding properties.
On September 24, 2020, the Santa Anita Oaks Architectural Review Board (ARB)
unanimously approved the design of the project. The meeting was held through a
teleconference call due to COVID-19. There were no public comments on the project at
this meeting. According to the ARB Findings and Action Report, the project was found to
be compatible in terms of scale and design with the surrounding properties and consistent
with the City’s Single Family Design Guidelines - refer to Attachment No. 3 for the ARB’s
Findings and Action Report and ARB Meeting Minutes. On April 16, 2021, the ARB
approved minor changes on the second floor per the Applicant’s request - refer to
Attachment No. 3 for the ARB’s Short Review Form.
PROPOSAL
The Applicant is proposing to renovate an existing two-story house. The house has an
existing legal non-conforming front yard setback of 50’-3”, whereas 60’-0” is required by
the Development Code. Most of the proposed additions will be within the existing footprint
of the house, with the exception of a few areas where they will have to extend beyond the
building footprint and encroach further into the required setbacks. This was mostly done
to help alleviate some of the long wall planes and add a new front covered porch which
will help enhance the architectural design of the house. Below is an image of the proposed
changes to the existing residence.
The project will add 798 square feet to the first floor which will expand the kitchen, dining
room, and family room areas, a 251 square foot covered patio at the rear below the
second floor, and a 209 square foot covered front porch. The 1,704 square foot second
floor addition will consist of two new bedrooms, an office, and a loft - refer to Attachment
Figure 1 - Existing Residence

No. 4 of the Architectural Plans. A new detached one-car garage is also proposed to
provide a three-car garage as required for a house with five or more bedrooms (the house
will now have 7 bedrooms). The house will have a new total floor area ratio (FAR) of 5,459
square feet, whereas up to 8,286 square feet is allowed. The site will have a total lot
coverage of 4,303 square feet, whereas 10,027 square feet is allowed. The project will
not impact any of the existing trees on the site.
The project is subject to the following modifications:
x Reduction to the Front Yard Setback for New Porch: Because the existing house
currently does not comply with the required front yard setback of 60’-0” (currently
at 50’-3”), any addition such as a front covered porch will have to further encroach
into the front yard setback due to its existing location on the lot. As a result, the
new front covered porch will encroach 2 feet into the front yard setback with a
setback of 48’-3” – refer above to Figure No. 3 for the Site Plan. This front covered
porch is necessary to help accommodate the second floor addition with the new
dormers above it, and to create a balanced appearance.
x Reduction to the Second Floor Front and Northerly Side Yard Setbacks: Most of
the second floor addition will be proposed over the existing building footprint,
however a portion of the second floor will encroach beyond the existing footprint
into the required side and front yard setbacks. These encroachments will help
provide additional articulation that is necessary along the front and north side of
the building to break-up the mass and enhance the overall design of the existing
house. The proposed style will be similar to the two other homes across the street
at 1415 Oaklawn Road and 1427 Oaklawn Road – refer to Attachment No. 2.

PC AM No. 21-01 –Resolution No. 2077
1436 Oaklawn Road
May 25, 2021 – Page 4 of 8
With the exception of the modifications listed above, the project will comply with all the
other required setbacks.
ANALYSIS
According to Arcadia Development Code Section 9107.05.050, it states that an
Administrative Modification may be approved if at least one of the following findings can
be made:
1. Secure an appropriate improvement of a lot;
2. Prevent an unreasonable hardship; or
3. Promote uniformity of development
The proposed modifications will secure an appropriate improvement to the site and
promote uniformity of development since the proposed project is to an existing residence
with legal non-conforming front and side yard setbacks. As a result, any new addition
cannot comply per code, unless it is added to the rear of the house and on the first floor.
The modifications are for: 1) A 48’-3” front yard setback in lieu of 60’-0” for a new front
covered porch (house is currently at 50’-3”); 2) A second floor front yard setback that
ranges from 50’-3” to 54’-9”, whereas 60’-0” is required; and 3) A 17’-0” northerly second
story side yard setback, whereas 20’-0” is required for the proposed additions. The
Figure 3 – Site Plan
N
PC AM No. 21-01 – Resolution No. 2077
1436 Oaklawn Road
May 25, 2021 – Page 5 of 8
proposed encroachments into the front and side yard setbacks are minimal and they will
help enhance the overall architectural style of the house so it would not appear boxy.
Therefore, the modifications are warranted since it will allow the property owner to
continue to use their property in a manner that does not deprive them of a privilege that
other property owners enjoy with a legal non-conforming house and allow them to still
secure an appropriate improve to the property.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The proposed project qualifies under a Class 1 and Class 5 Exemptions as a minor
addition to an existing structure and a minor alteration to the land use limitations of the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Sections 15301(e) and 15305 of the
CEQA Guidelines. Refer to Attachment No. 5 for the Preliminary Exemption Assessment.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
A public hearing notice for this project was mailed to the properties that were located
within 300 feet of the subject property and published in Arcadia Weekly on May 13, 2021.
As of May 20, 2021, staff did not receive any comments on this modification.

Explanation: The roof plan is consistent with the architectural style. Traditional roof
forms are used. Similar roof form and pitch to the immediate neighborhood are used.
