THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DOWNEY DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. The City Council does hereby find and determine that an application was filed by Daniel J. Wilson, with respect to the real property described as follows: 8361 Fifth Street, appealing the actions of the Planning Commission on Zone Variance #473, that a public hearing was duly set for December 22, 1986 at 7:30 p.m., in the Council Chamber of the Downey City Hall, 11111 Brookshire Avenue, Downey, California, and a notice of the date, time, place and purpose of aforesaid hearing was duly held at the aforementioned time and place. Studies and investigation made by the Council and in its behalf reveal the following facts: (1) Special conditions and circumstances do not exist which are peculiar to the land involved which are not generally applicable to other lands in the same vicinity and zone since there are no land use hardships caused by the shape and configuration of this property. (2) Literal interpretation of the provisions of the ordinance would not deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the City under the terms of the Zoning Ordinance since other multiple family complexes in the area have been built to established City standards. (3) Special conditions and circumstances would result from actions of the applicant because his design would result in the construction of an extra unit and a reduced side yard setback. (4) Approval of the variance would confer a special privilege that is denied by the Zoning Ordinance to other lands because other properties in the area must be developed to City standards. (5) Granting approval of the applicant's request will adversely affect the Comprehensive General Plan because the density requested is not consistent with the City's General Plan Land Use Element. SECTION 2. The City Council further finds and determines that facts do not exist as required in Section 9164.18 of the Downey Municipal Code to justify the granting of the appeal on Zone Variance No. 473. SECTION 3. Based upon the aforementioned findings, the City Council hereby denies this appeal for the property described in Section 1, above, upholding the City's Planning Commission decision to deny Zone Variance No. 473. SECTION 4. Pursuant to the provisions of the California Code of Civil Procedure, Section 1094.6 as adopted by the City of Downey City Council by Resolution No. 3409, judicial review of the City Council's decision regarding this matter may be had pursuant to Section 1094.5 of the California Code of Civil Procedure provided a petition is filed no later than the 90th day following the date on which this decision became final.
