Dear Sir:
This is in the matter of the Oakland Company's appeal to establish
a 13 -foot building line on the north side of Oakland between Western
and Lawton. The legal description is: Lots 8 and 10, Block 12,
Terrace Park Addition. The present zoning is "C" residence.
Each lot has a, frontage of 60 feet along Oakland Avenue; lot 10,
-the westerly one, ,has an average depth of approximately 198 feet,
producing an area of approximately 12,000 square feet. Lot 8, on
the east, has a frontage of 60 feet with an average depth of 217
feet, producing an area of approximately 13,000 square feet. The
applicant proposes that each lot will be the site of an elevenecar
parking lot and an eleven -unit apartment building.
The adjacent land uses are as follows: Lot 9, which lies between the
two lots under consideration, is developed with a large two and one -
half story frame multi - family residence; east and adjoining Lot 8
is a large two -store frame multiple residence; west and adjoining
Lot 10 is a two -story frame residence; south across Oakland and
Pleasant Avenues are single - family residences which front on
Pleasant Avenue and which will eventually be removed for the right -
of -way needs of the Pleasant Avenue Freeway; north and adjoining
at the top of the bluff are residences which front on Summit Court.
Field investigation discoses that the present building line of 18
feet is established b'y three structures in the block which were
erected prior to. the enactment of the Zoning Ordinance. The appli-
cant requests that the appeal to- the' building -line change be granted
in order to permit him to erect the two structures five feet nearer
to the street which will permit, the applicant to provide adequate
space for the installation of the parking lots without unduly disturb-
ing the rocky slope at the rear, of the two lots.
In consideration of the above factors, the Board of Zoning recommends
the approval of the appeal to relax the present building line and to
establish 'a 13 -foot building line on the lots under consideration.
Very truly yours, -
HCW:FS ` Herbert C. Wieland
