the property shall be reconverted back to commercial, that should it be sold before the
period, that the applicant fully disclose that the property is commercial, that occupants
or tenants who lease property be notified that it will only be residential for eight years,

'City Attorney Deitsch clarified a portion of the motion as follows: the applicant has six
months to abate the second unit, terminate the second kitchen, the second residence, and
after six months from this meeting date, there will be only one residence on the property
and should that not take place, it will again become a nuisance situation. The applicant
must pull all permits immediately to renovate the second residence in order to make sure
that within six months that unit is no longer suitable as a residence, meaning that the
kitchen has to be removed, among other things. He reiterated that all permits will be
promptly pulled and all work completed within six months from the date of the meeting.

owner. N. Pasadena
Community Development Director addressed the issue detailing events that led to the
subject; that a variance had been approved for the property to legalize the conversion
of carports into living area and waiver of garage requirements for 6 dwelling units on
the site and as part of the approval, the Planning Commission required the construction
of a nine space carport. He advised that the property owner, Ms. Yates, accepted the
conditions of approval but is now requesting permission to not build the carport.
Further, that since the appeal period for the request expired over a year ago, the
Council has no jurisdiction over the request. He recommended that Council inform the
'applicant that she should apply to the Planning Commission to amend Variance No. V-
95-1, deleting the requirement to construct a carport.
City Attorney advised Council that they are presently without jurisdiction to hear an
appeal, first of all because it is not timely filed. The appellant had the right to appeal
the action of the Planning Commission within twenty days of its decision. He
recommended that the item be referred back to Planning Commission for its
reconsideration of the Variance with the condition attached. He further advised that if
Council wished to hear the matter, it would have to be set before Council as a Public
