Var. ing requirement, on property located at 708 N. Azusa Ave., (Case V-306 - (Case V-306 - Leo Nasser), the Mayor declared the hearing Leo Nasser) open. (appeal The City Clerk presented the affidavit of proof of publi- denied) cation of the Notice of this hearing in the Azusa Herald & Pomotropic on July 6, 1972, and the affidavit of posting of said Notice on 7/7/72. Associate Planning Director Fitzsimmons addressed Council and summarized the report from the Planning Department. He noted that the present structure is having to be demolished, and that the waiver is for the new two story office build- ing that will be built on that location. He pointed out the configuration of the land whereby there would be no space for access, or parking, from the alley. Depending on the type of structure built, the normal parking requirement would be either nine or ten spaces. The most parking that could be provided would be two spaces in front of the build- ing, were the first story to be recessed back from the Azusa Avenue property line. This would be unadvisable because it would require a driveway access off of Azusa Avenue where there could be no turn -around area and the cars parked would have to back out onto Azusa Avenue for an exit. He noted that the Variance.was good only until such time as a parking district, or sufficient parking, within the proper distance, was available for use. 'Leo C. Nasser, 706 N.

Abdelnour, 240 W. Foothill Blvd., Azusa, addressed Council in opposition to the Variance. He noted that the City had just adopted the CBD Zone, with the intention of upgrading the downtown area. This was the first Variance requested since that zone was adopted. As parking is a major interest in such a zone he felt that the waiver of require- ments was not fair. He asked Council if it was prepared to - offer the same for the other properties in the downtown areas that are isolated. He felt that Mr. Nasser should be required to post a bond that would insure that he would become part of a parking district if and when developed. It was explained to Mr. Abdelnour that the CBD Zone has not been applied to any property. He responded that CBD or not, there is a parking requirement and in the best interest of maintaining some sort of direction for the upgrading of downtown,Mr. Nasser should either provide parking or at least pust a bond. No one else wishing to speak regarding this matter, and no further communications having been received, it was Moved by Councilman Decker, seconded by Councilman Rubio and unanimously carried to close the hearing. During the discussion Councilman Rubio indicated his con- cern about starting a trend. The other members of the Council generally felt that the City should help where it can when a person in the downtown area is trying to upgrade by building a new structure. The configuration I L 1 AZUSA AUDITORIUM AZUSA, CALIFORNIA MONDAY, JULY 175 1972 Page 3 of the property was noted and the hardship of requiring the parking area was felt to be justification for a Variance.

He re- quested that the Council permit the removal of the marquee and vertical sign and that the theatre itself be left vacant. The building would be painted but he requested permission to allow the other businesses in the same structure to continue.
