SUBJECT Public Hearing on Planning Application PA22-0191 for a Coastal Development Permit and
Variance.

PROPOSAL A request for a Coastal Development Permit, a Use Permit, and a Variance to allow the remodeling of an existing residence. A Coastal Development Permit is required for the extensive remodeling of the existing residence and miscellaneous grading and landscaping improvements. A Use Permit is required for the extension of an existing wall within the front setback to a maximum height of 6 feet 3 inches where Zoning would otherwise permit a maximum height of 3 feet 6 inches. A Variance is required to allow for a reduced rear setback of 5 feet 10 inches for portions of the remodeled residence where the Zoning Code would otherwise require 25 feet. The existing residence currently has a 4 foot 11 inch rear setback.
ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION Staff recommendation is to find that the proposed project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), under the Class 1 (Existing Facilities), Class 2 (Replacement or Reconstruction), Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), and Class 4 (Minor Alterations to Land) exemptions pursuant to Sections 15301, 15302, 15303, and 15304 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines and County of Orange procedures.
