NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING BY THE ORANGE COUNTY ZONING ADMINISTRATOR

SUBJECT Public Hearing on a Coastal Development Permit, Use Permit and Variance (Planning Application PA22-0094)

LOCATION

The project is located at 412 Emerald Bay, Laguna Beach, CA within the Fifth Supervisorial District. (APN 053-071-17)
PROPOSAL A request for a Coastal Development Permit, Use Permit and Variance in conjunction with the remodeling and additions to an existing two-level 2,600 square foot home. 414 square feet of new living and deck area is proposed with an additional 32 square feet in a garage expansion. The Coastal Development Permit is required for the improvements to the existing home with associated site grading. The Variance is required for reduced front setback of 15 feet 1 inch feet and a rear setback of 15 feet, where the Zoning Code would require 19 feet 1 inch for a setback on a shallow lot. Also, a deck/balcony would extend to within 8 feet of the rear property line where Zoning would otherwise require a setback of 14 feet. A Use Permit is required to permit over-height privacy wall of 7 feet 4 inches in the front setback area where a maximum height of 3.5 feet is otherwise required.
ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION  Staff is recommending that the proposed project be found Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under the Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3 exemptions pursuant to Sections 15303, 15302 and 15303 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines and County of Orange procedures.
