AND V-819, INDEPENDENT OUTDOOR ADVERTISING
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA DOES RESOLVE
AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City Council of the City of Azusa
does hereby find and determine that:
A. There was filed with the Planning Commission
six applications for variances, Independent Out-
door Advertising, V-814 301 South Irwindale Avenue;
V-815 145 North Azusa Avenue; V-816 504 North
Citrus and 900 Gladstone; V-817 575 East Arrow
Highway; V-818 227 South Azusa Avenue; and V-819
817 West Gladstone.
B. Applications V-814 and V-817 requested a
variance from the provisions of Section 19.54.010
of the Azusa Municipal Code. Application V-819
requested a variance from the provisions of
Section 19.54.020(c) of the Azusa Municipal Code.
Applications V-815 and V-816 requested a variance
from the provisions of Section 19.54.010 and
Section 19.54.020(c) of the Azusa Municipal Code.
Application V-818 requested a variance from the
provisions of Section 19.52.080 of the Azusa
Municipal Code.
C. A duly.noticed public hearing was held on
these said applications by the Planning Commis-
sion of the City of Azusa on September 21, 1983,
and the Planning Commission voted to deny the
subject variances by a vote of five in favor,
one opposed and one absent.
D. The variances were appealed to the City
Council by the applicant, Independent Outdoor
Advertising.
E. A duly noticed public hearing was held by
the City Council on the said appeals on November 7,
1983, and November 21, 1983, at which time the
Council received all oral and written evidence
presented at the hearing by the applicant and other
interested persons.
SECTION 2. After carefully considering all of the
oral and written evidence presented at the said public hearing,
the City Council finds and determines that:
A. The strict application of the provisions
of the Azusa Municipal Code, Zoning, would not
result in practical difficulties or unnecessary
hardships inconsistent with the general purpose
and intent of the title.

B. There are no exceptional circumstances
or conditions apDlicable to the properties
involved or to the intended use or development
of the properties involved that do not apply
generally to other property in the same zone.
C. The granting of the variance for the sub-
ject properties would be materially detrimental
to the public welfare and injurious to the pro-
perty or improvements in the zone or neighbor-
hood in which the properties are located in
that the addition of more signs in excess of
those permitted by the Code would substantially
contribute to sign clutter, would increase the
unsightliness of signs in the area and would
adversely affect the City's efforts to beautify
the areas where the signs would be located.
D. The granting of the variance for the sub-
ject properties would be inconsistent with the
General Plan of the City of Azusa in that the
General Plan calls for beautification of the
areas where the additional signs would be
located and the addition of signs in excess of
those permitted under current City code would
substantially contribute to sign clutter in
the area, create unsightly parcels with these
signs and adversely affect the City's efforts
to beautify these areas.
SECTION 3. Based upon the findings set forth above,
the appeal of Zone Variance Cases No. V-814, V-815, V-816,
V-817, V-818 and V-819 are denied and the zone variances re-
quested on said applications are hereby denied.
SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall certify the adoption
of this Resolution.
