That the location of another convalescent home within a block from
subject property, as well as professional medical offices and a
hospital within the near vicinity makes such a varian~e necessary for
the preservation and enjo~~nt of a substantial property right of
the applicant possessed by other property in the same zone and vi-
cinity. That the granting of the variance. will not be materially
detrimental to the public health or welfare or injurious to the
property or improvements in such zone or vicinity, but oecause
the type of facility is clean and quiet and will requfre less traffic
than an office or apartment building, it will have an appreciating
.effect on adjacent properties. That the area is now zoned C-Q and
other properties and improvements will not be adversely affected
by the proposed use of subject property, but would be consistent
with the general plan.
SECTION 2. That for the foregoing reasons, this Commis-
sion recommends to the City Council of the City of Arcadia that a
variance be granted to permit the use of the above desc.ribed prop-
erty for a convalescent home upon the following conditions:
1. That the use of the building be so restricted that no
mental patients, alcholics or contagious disease cases be admitted
and kept.
2. That the applicants record an irrevocable offer of
dedicat~on for 30 feet across the rear of the property for an ease-
ment for alley purposes.
3. That final plan~, in substantial compliance with the
. tentative plans submitted shall be submitted to and approved by the
Planning Commission.
4. That grading and drainage plans be submitted to and
approved by the Department of Public Works prior to issuance of a
building permit.

plans, building plans and elevations have been submitted to and

from the date of tentative approval of the proj~~t by the City Council.
That no work of clearing of the site shall be done until a building
permit for the erection of the convalescent home has been issued.
That such building permit shall not be issued until the plans have
been approved by agencies having regulatory power over the subject
