SAN � OA Q�O COMMUNITY DEVE )PMENT DEPARTMENT rQ G VARIANCE COUNT` Greatness grows here. FILE NUMBER: Findings 1. The granting of the Variance will not be materially detrimental to other properties or land uses in the area. We have proposed the new carport to align with the residential property out buildings and thus maximize views from the residences. 2. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property or to the intended uses that do not apply to other properties in the same zoning district in the vicinity. The California Highway Patrol' s (CHP) Mission is to prevent Loss of Life Injuries and Property Damage. In order to achieve this the CHP is accrediting its facilities to meet the International Association for Property & Evidence standards. This accreditation requires that evidence vehicles, which are now parked in open parking stalls within the secure yard be covered with a carport canopy and surrounded with an 8-foot high slatted chain link fence. This will allow the department to safeguard the chain of custody of evidence and reduce the possibility of reckless driving and drunk driving convictions from being overturned on a technicality in court, thus safeguarding county citizens. There is no un programed covered parking on site and the only open spaces are less than 20 feet from the Residential properties. The original site planning distributed nearly all the spare area to landscape buffer along the public street frontage, so there is no available land which is not against the residences. 3. The strict application of the regulation deprives the property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity. As the nearby residents have built utility structures along their property line, the CHP would not be granted any greater benefit than the adjacent properties, in fact eight feet of landscaped area would remain between the carport and the existing security fence. The residential outbuildings appear to be about 3 to 5 feet feet from the property line without landscaping between. Page 3 of 4 Updated 08(22/2019
