ITEM EXPLANATTON (4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES NO X )
A. BACKGROUND
l . Over the past years the Planning Commission has granted variances from the minimum
lot frontage requirements in the single family and two family residential zones permitting
the creation of panhandle (flag) lots and 7ots served by an easement. Section 19.14.200
of the Municipal Code states in part that, "No grant of variance shall be authorized if the
Zoning Administrator finds that the conditions or situation of the specific piece of property
or the intended use of said property for which variance is sought, or one or the other in
combination, is so general or recurrent in nature as to make reasonably practical the
formulation of a general regulation for such condition or situation. " The variance requests
which have been granted are so similar in nature that it is anticipated other requests will
be forthcoming, therefore, the following amendments to the Code establishing regulations
and guidelines governing the deve7opment of panhandle lots are proposed.
2. On hlay 25, 1979 the Planning Commission adopted the Negative Declatation on
IS-79-49 which is herewith forwarded to the City Council .
B. DISCUSSION
l . The proposed amendments to the zoning ordinance will allow for the processing of
the occasional request for development of a lot which lacks frontage on a public street
but which has access from an easement without the need to apply for a variance. In the
past, the variance procedure has been used but the c7assical variance findings are difficult
to make in this type of case. Procedurally, it is preferable to amend the zoning ordinance
to allow for the development of such pre-existing lots subject to the appropriate conditions
of approval . The language of the ordinance utilizes the conditions of approval previously
established by the Planning Commission as guidelines.

A. Background
Over the past years the Planninq Commission has granted variances from the
minimum lot frontage rec�uirements in the sinc�le family and two famil,y residential
zones permitting the creation of panhandle (flag) lots and lots served by an
easement. Section 19. 14.20Q of the f�unicipal Code states in part that "�Jo grant
of variance shall be authorized if the Zoning Administrator finds that the conditions
or situation of the specific piece of aroperty or the intended use of said property
for which variance is sought, or one or the other in combination, is so aeneral or
recurrent in nature as to make reasonably practical the formulation of a general
regulation for such condition or situation." The variance re�uests urhich have
been granted are so similar in nature that it is anticioated other requests will
be forthcoming, nrompting staff to prepare these proposed amendments to the Code
establishing regulations and guidelines governing the deveiopment of panhandle lots .
