about 150 feet behind the front dwelling, there is a gardener's cottage,
equipped with kitchen facilities.
A sanitation e.ssement near the resr property line provides sewage outlet
for the existing improvements.
As presently contemplated, the proposed route of the Foothill Freeway
would necessitate the acquisition of the southerly 230 feet of the sub-
ject property, thereby removing the existing dwelling, gardener's cot-
tage and sewer line.
The applicant has submitted plans for a dwelling over 2500 square feet
to be situated 341 feet from the front property line. Between the pro-
posed dwelling and the freeway R/w line there. is approximately 192 feet;
while the pool cabana would clear the R/W by 60 feet.

The Chairman declared the hearing continued until the next regular
meeting for the purpose of receiving reports from. the staff and Zoning
COIDlll~ t tees,.
The Chairman opened the public hearing on the application of David C.
and Dorothy M, Ryder for a zone .variance to allow the erection of an
sdditional dwelling at 903 N. Second Avenue.
The Secretary read the staff report which indicated:
The lot is ;5' x 286,67' or 15,766 square feet and backs up to an L
shaped lot that has frontage on Laurel Avenue.
As proposed, the second dwelling sets 'on its own site of 7500 square
feet and is located properly as to required yards. It has a floor
area of 1036 square feet with an attached carpor't.' The applicants
plan to utilize the existing driveway for both garages.
There are eight residential lots 'thst face on Second Avenue on the
west side of the street,. The remaining frontage is city owne4 pro-
perty, Of the eight lots, two have s two dwelling development or
25%, There are no lots fronting on Second Avenue on the east side
of the street.
Seventeen property owners in the area .have recoIDlllended approval of the
application. Fifteen of these owners sre within s 300 foot radius.
Additional petitions have been received revising the results to 32 who
have recoIDlllended approval with 28 of them residing within the 300 foot
limit,
There being no further cOIDlllunications, the Chairman declared the public
hearing in aession. The Chairman requested that those in favor of the
variance .step forwa~d and state their position.
Mr. David C. Ryder., 903 N, Second Avenue, stated that he was in favor
of' the var,iance because a 286 foo't lot is s handicap to keep clean;
that a second dwelling would help to overcome tax problems, bringing
in new revenue.
Mr. Michler asked how Mr. Ryder would get back to the new dwelling;
whether he would use the sSl1le driveway.
Mr. Stout wished to clarify whether there would be s circulsr drive or
a straight one back to the proposed dwelling.
The applicant answered thst there would 'be no circular driveway, but
the present drivewsy would go straight on back, and the carport would
be. on the right side of the property.
Mr. Stout asked if this application was 'made under the provisions of the
new or the old ordinance. The Secretary answered that it was applied for
under the old'ordinance, which required 60 per cent of the lots to be
developed with two houses; this lot doean't qualify under the neW ordin-
ance, bec?use the rear of the lot has not been subdivided since 1949.
The new ordinance is not yet in effect.
Mr. Nicklin sdvised that this wouldn't qualify under the old ordinance
automatically; that's why the variance was filed.
Those opposing the variance were then requested to present their views.
No one desired to behesrd,
The Chainnan declared the hearing continued until the next regular meet-
ing for the purpose of receiving'reports from the staff snd Zoning
COIDlllittees.

pany far a' special use permit ta allaw the installatlon and use of a

The Secretary read the application, which stated that the prapasal is ta.

lot between the existing service road snd Csnyon Drive. This master
antenna will be used to receive tetevision signals for transmission
to various homes in the area; that there sre exceptianal or extra-
.ordinary circumstances. Var10us lots in Tract Na; 23143 and 23144,
23145 and 20211 da not have satisfactary television reception. The
proposed master antenna will make it possible ~or residents ta have
such service.
Mr. Nicklin advised that at this time the commission was considering
the application for a special uSe permit ta all .ow' the erection of a
commercial T. V. master antenna. inasmuch as , such a use .has been class,
ified as a special use, and must' be processed under the regulations
governing variances and/arspecial use permits.
There were no cammunications; the Chairman requested those in favar
to step farward and state their position,
Mr.. Leo Arronaga and Mr. Herbert Rose, representing the Southern
California Fringe T. V. Campanyand Mr. Matt Hunt, representing Camden-
Wilshire Campany, supported their request for a special use permit,
Mr. Hunt described the need for a more adequate T.V. reception .system
in the Foothill area. He stated that he had been sesrching for about
2 years to find the logical company to furnish high grade service I
and felt that the right campany had been. chasen; that the antenns wauld
be an asset ta the area, and wauld nat detract from the beauty .of the
vicinity,
Mr, Hunt described the antenna as 14 feet high with a. circumference .of
25 feet.The antenna mast will bebelaw the present service raad that
services three lats. The lats themselves sre narth .of the antenna site,
and will be'placed dawn slape and aut .of sight .of the three dwelling

In answer te Mr. Lartz' questian regarding excavatian, he explained
that there wauld .be 'ne need fer excessive excavatien, and that the mast
weuld be sttached te the hillside by a concrete feundatien,
Mr, Rese explained the antenna weuld use the veltage .of an average

The Chairman then asked for those opposed to step forward.
Mr, John Fee, 8l0-A N. Fil'st, the' owner of Lot 9 which adjoins the pro-
posed site of the antenna merely appeared to get a closer look at the
planned antenna to get an idea of the appearance. It was explained
that it is merely a receiving' antenna and not a transmitting instru-
ment. Mr. Fee also wished to know if this antenna would constitute an
attractive nuissnce.
Mr. Hunt replied that from a legal standpoint, no; that even if a"per-
son were to get near the device there would be no inherent danger.
Mr. Fee also asked if the antenna would be fenced. It was discussed
further and establishe~ that a fence might very well attract children
sooner than a free area would.
Motion by Mr. Davison, seconded by Mr. Stout and carried that the
application of Camden-Wilshire Company for a special use permit to
allow the erection of a master T.V. antenna at 2122 Canyon Road be

requirements as contemplated by Resolution No. 321 (continued from June

No, 254 - Vivian MargoHn,. 1431 S. Santa Anita Avenue - reviewed by
Mr. Acker and Mr. Michler
The Secretary read the report stating that this split would create
t,ro very irregular lots, and because there is a 50' setback required on
Santa Anita Avenue, special modification would be required to construct
a minimum 2 car garage or carport for Parcel No.2.
The present dwelling would become non-conforming as to rear yard
requirements. Modification may also be necessary for the consttuction
of a dwelling for Parcel No. 1
}tr. Nate Margolin, 605 Mountain Drive, Beverly Hills, explained that
on Parcel No.. 2 there will be constructed a carport attached to
the exising residence \Oitha U shaped drive. He further explained
that the reason for the irregularly shaped lot was to maintain the
exist ing pool, and dividing it withs wan through the middle of the
pool with access from both properties.
The Commission, after discussion recormnended that this lot split be
held over for further study by the staff with Mr. Margolin to come up
with some alternate suggestion.
No. 255 - Lynn H. Spafford - 1323 Eighth Avenue, referred to Mr. Acker
and Mr' Michler.
The applicant plans to remove all the existing structures on the lot;
all existing water lines bet,,,een oroperties should be removed. The
present driveway approach to Parcel "A" should be improved to the
satisfaction of the City Engineer.
A separate driveway approach should be constructed for Parcel "B". Mr.
Michler stated that after viewing this property he would recommend that
it be granted.

All existing water lines between properties should be
Mr, Stout ststed that he viewed the property; that it has three modest
dwellings' on it, The purchase of this additional footsge would reduce
the frontage of. the property to the north to less than 75 feet, which
is not in keeping with the width of lots the Commission has striven to
maintain. He .further stated that the property would. make an ideal
lot split if the frontage were facing .on El Sur, would create two lots
approximately 90' wide, Would recommend that this lot split be
denied as the application now reads, because it would be detrimental
to overall planning in the .ares.
Mrs. Fuehr, the owner of the property, declared that she has been living
at this address for 15 years. and had been planning at t'ime' of retirement
to add income to the property. She felt that the request was within
the pattern of the area, inasmuch as up the street there were lots 57'
w~de, and some across the street only 40' wide, She stated further that
the proper~y is ideally located with plenwof space between the
houses; patios .for each house, etc. She claimed that they have put a
great deal of effort and ,thought into the construction of the rentals,
and would appreciate very much the commission's affirmative consideration
of her request.
Discussion ensued to determine if allowing the lot. split on El Sur
would accomplish the same purpose she is seeking.
There ,was some question whether or not she would be able to place a
second dwelling on a second lot, if the split were changed to face El
Sur.
Mr, Michler ssid that the commission would like to do something for
this applicant, but did not feel that the proprty lends itself to a
lot split st this particular time.
Mr. Nicklin suggested that the spplicant submit a revised plan for the
lot split, showing the lot split coming in from another street, He
added that building a house is another problem; the square footage of
the second lot would be appreciably under the requirement for another
hous.e.
Moved by Mr. stout and seconded by Mr, Michlersnd carried that Lot Split
No. 256 be denied, and if the applicant desires to re-submit an appli-
cation facing El Sur,. l.t may receive favorable consideration.

.The purchaser of Parcel. No.' 2 has agreed to grsnt seHer a 20'
easement slong the easterly boundary of subject property for ingress
snd egress.
Parcel No.1 will not have frottage on a public street. The southerly
30 I of Parcel No.. 1 has been dedicated for alley purpose, but his
dedicsted alley has no access toa public street.
Applicant does not indicate how Parcel No. 1 will be served with sewer
and water lines.
If Parcel No. 1 is to remain for the sole purpose of off street park-
ing a covenant should be. recorded to that effect.
There was considerable discussion on holding this lot split until after
the hearing on the re-zoning of West Arcadia, but it was felt since
this area is already zoned C-3, the COlIIIDission should consider this
lot spli t.
Mr, Henry Hege came forward to exp1sin the desirability of,granting
this lot split.
Mr. Lortz stated he felt it would be materially helpful if a means of
entering the landlocked area could be realized from the alley coming
off of Baldwin Avenue.
Mr. Hege stated that he did not know if the Bank of America has a
coutract with the property owner to grant permission to dedicate .such
an alley. He further explained that he thought by agreement of the
property owners and merchants this lot has been used for parking purposes,
Moved by Mr. Da'(ison, seconded by Mr. Norton and carried that Lot Split
No, 257 be held, and that no final negative or affirmative action be
taken at this time. The applicant will investigate further into the
alley dedication and sppear with the results. '
No.. 258- Park Investment Company - 2413 S. S.econd Avenue., referred to
Mr. Michler and Mr. Stout.
The Secretary read the engineer's report.
Mrs, Elaine Park came forward to explain the reasons for this lot split
request, She explained that they wish to hold the 25 feet of Parcel 4
for future subdivision purposes, which would allow the planning of
another 75 foot lot. She further stated that she owns the property to
the north. She also said that she would record a covenant that this
25' foot parcel would not be used for anything other than the future
subdivision.
Mr. Nicklin explained that the COlIIIDission has frequently allowed
these minimum splits for future anticipated developments, with the
recording of a covenant that they shall not be used as a separate build-
ing site.
General discussion followed. The SecI.etary outlined from the l)Iinutes
of April 14 thst the tract was recolIIIDended for conditional approval,
subject to certain conditions.
Mrs. Park explained that the p'roperty involved in this request repre-
sents an am.ount of about $30,000.00, and in order to protect this
investment it was her hope this request would receive favorable
consideration from t.he cOlIIIDission. She felt that this future develop-
ment would considerably improve the area.

lots in the proposed subdivision.
Mr. Reeder, 1444 Oaklawn stated that he was concerned that them were
no restrictions as to the .square footage of proposed homes to be built
in this subdivision. If lots sre cut down to a minimum size, the
t~ndency is to go to a smaller home. Other lots in surrounding areas
have high restrictions of 1800 square feet; he would like to see some
