That there were no protests, either oral or written, to the granting of the variance; that thirteen property 4It owners in the area signed a petition favoring the variance and there was one who spoke in favor of it. SECTION 2. That subject property is now a commercial chicken ranch with chickens on the rear of the property near Encino Avenue and two dwellings on the front portion of the lot. That sub- ject building was built in 1953 as a feed room and was so constructed -1- , ': j 333 .,/ .l~ . . , , , ~ and placed on the lot that it could be converted to a dwelling use as three dwellings on said lot were permissible at that time. That the buildings are so spaced that each is on a site not less than 7,500 square feet in area. That subject building now has an area of 504 square feet and it is proposed to add two bedrooms and a bath, bringing it up to 1,015 square feet. That there are 18 lots in the block on the west side of Eighth Avenue of which 10 have one house, 5 have two houses and 3 have three houses. SECTION 3. That the foregoing constitute exceptional con- ditions that do not apply generally to property in the neighborhood and that a variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant possessed by other . property in the same zone or vicinity. That the granting of a vari- ance upon the conditions hereinafter recommended will not be mate- rially detrimental to the public health or welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the zone or vicinity where the prop- erty is located, nor will it adversely affect the comprehensive gen- eral plan. SECTION 4. 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 an addition to the building presently used as a feed room and its conversion into a third dwelling upon the above described property upon the following conditions: 1. That the commercial raising of chickens or sale of . poultry prOducts be discontinued on all of the above described prop- erty and the equipment therefor be removed from said premises. 2. That the west 30 feet of the property be dedicated tor street purposes and a sufficient bond to guarantee its full ~mprovement as required by the subdivision ordinance be posted with the City. -2- 333 . ,'l~ " . . . . . . 3.
