11 OVERVIEW CEQA, or the California Environmental Quality Act, is a statute that requires state and local agencies to identify the significant environmental impacts of their actions and to avoid or mitigate those impacts, if feasible. CEQA requires public agencies to conduct environmental review before making a determination on a project. The environmental review process examines the potential impacts your project will have on the property and its surroundings, and makes recommendations (mitigation measures) on how to minimize or reduce those impacts that are found to be significant. The purpose of this application is to assist staff in determining the appropriate environmental clearance for your project. Please fill out this form completely. Missing, incomplete or inconsistent information will cause delays in the processing of your application. 1. PROJECT DESCTIPTION A.

Section 4: Requests (Give details and describe exact dimensions on proposed dedication or improvement relief being requested. Also include if you are requesting relief from the required curb radius, if known.) The applicant requests a waiver of the highway dedication. The applicant is proposing to maintain the existing building, which is located approximately five feet from the eastern property line which fronts S. Boyle Avenue. The project includes the new construction of a second apartment building, which would trigger the dedication of feet. This minimal dedication would not provide any additional improvements to the public right-of-way (extra lanes, bike lanes, parkways, etc), but would effectively appropriate the front yard of the existing apartment building. Therefore, the applicant respectfully requests that the highway dedication requirement be waived for the proposed project.

21 731 Boyle Avenue DENSITY SONUS FINDINGS CPC The Applicant requests a Density Bonus for a Housing Development Project, which proposes a new 5-unit building in addition to an existing 4-unit apartment building. One of the five new units will be restricted for Very Low Income households, which is equivalent to 11% of the nine units that will ultimately be located on the project site. The Applicant is thereby eligible for a 35% increase in density, from a base density of 12 units to a maximum permitted density of 17 units. However, as the applicant wishes to maintain the existing 4-unit building on - site, a full utilization of the permitted density increase would be infeasible. To avoid demolition while adding units, including a unit that is restricted to Very Low Income households, the Applicant is requesting one on-menu development incentive and six off-menu development incentives: 1. An On-Menu Incentive to allow a maximum height of 56 feet in lieu of the permitted height of 45 feet. 2. An Off-Menu Incentive to allow a front yard setback of eight (8) feet in lieu of the required 15-foot front yard setback. 3. An Off-Menu Incentive to allow a rear yard setback of 10 feet in lieu of the required 15- foot rear yard setback. 4. An Off-Menu Incentive to allow a northerly side yard setback of four (4) feet in lieu of the required 8-foot side yard setback. 5. An Off-Menu Incentive to allow a building separation of 10 feet in lieu of the required 26-foot building separation. 6. An Off-Menu Incentive to allow a passageway of 10 feet in lieu of the required 14-foot passageway. 7. An Off-Menu Incentive to waive the requirement for five (5) on-site parking spaces. ON-MENU INCENTIVES To be eligible for any on-menu incentives, a Housing Development Project (other than an Adaptive Reuse project) shall comply with the following: (!) The facade of any portion of a building that abuts a street shall be articulated with a change of material or with a break in plane, so that the facade is not a flat surface. The street-facing fagade of the new building will feature articulation and material variation to avoid the appearance of a flat surface. Furthermore, the proposed elevations on Sheet A2.1 demonstrate that the exterior shape of the building is designed to be irregular and undulating on the front and rear facades to give the building texture, movement, and provide the units with outdoor space. Therefore, the Project complies and is eligible for on-menu incentives.

22 (ii) All buildings must be oriented to the street by providing entrances, windows, architectural features and/or balconies on the front and along any street-facing elevations. According to Sheet A1.2 on the plan set, the entrance to the ground floor unit is located on the front elevation. Likewise, the staircases leading to the upper floors are also accessed at the front of the building. The street-facing elevation of the building features outdoor decks and transparent windows to create a vibrant street presence and encourage eyes on the street." Therefore, the Project complies and is eligible for on-menu incentives. (iii) The Housing Development Project shall not be a contributing structure in a designated Historic Preservation Overlay Zone and shall not be on the City of Los Angeles list of Historical-Cultural Monuments. The Project is not located in a Historic Preservation Overlay Zone and is not a Historic Cultural Monument. Therefore, the Project complies and is eligible for on-menu incentives. (iv) The Housing Development Project shall not be located on a substandard street in a Hillside Area or in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone as established in Section of this Code. The Project is not located on a substandard street in a designated Hillside Area, nor in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. Therefore, the Project complies and is eligible for on-menu incentives. OFF-MENU INCENTIVES Density Bonus Projects are eligible for development incentives that will have the effect of physically precluding the construction of the proposed development. (Cal. Gov. Code 65915(e)(1)) (emphasis added). Examples ofwaive-able development standards include a height limitation, a setback requirement, a floor area ratio, an on-site open-space requirement... that applies to a residential development pursuant to any ordinance, general plan element, specific plan, charter, or other local condition, law, policy, resolution, or regulation (Cal. Gov. Code 65915(o)(1)). An applicant of a qualifying density bonus project may request a waiver to enable construction of the entire development- including project amenities (as opposed to only the project s residential units). Therefore, under the State Density Bonus law, and the implementing ordinance of the City of Los Angeles, the City must grant the waiver necessary to physically accommodate the proposed development, unless the request would: (1) have a specific, adverse impact upon health and safety 1, or the physical environment (for which there is no feasible method to satisfactorily mitigate or avoid the impact), (2) have an adverse impact on a property listed in the California Register of Historical Resources, or (3) violate State or Federal law (Cal. Gov. Code 65915(e)(1)). XA Spedfic Adverse Impact is defined as a significant, quantifiable, direct and unavoidable impact, based on objective, identified written public health or safety standards, policies, or conditions as they existed on the date the application was deemed complete. (Cal. Gov. Code (d)(2); LAMC 12.22A.25(b)).

23 The requested SB 1818 off-menu incentives are necessary for the proposed Project to make a physically viable Housing Development Project, and without such deviations it is impractical and infeasible to build such a facility on the Subject Property. The unique building characteristics and affordable unit cannot be accommodated within the yard and parking limitations of the LAMC. As such, flexibility allowed by the State Density Bonus law is required to accommodate the building s physical envelope. YARDS The Applicant is requesting three required yard reduction incentives: a reduced front yard, rear yard, and northerly side yard. In the front yard, the Applicant proposes an 8-foot setback in lieu of the required 15-foot setback. Because of the unique slope on the parcel of land, an 8-foot setback is required to have a reasonable unit situated on the ground level without locating it further under the surface of the slope. The surrounding properties were likewise built with shallow front yards. The existing building is setback approximately five feet from the property line, though the wall created by the front stairs is set at zero feet. The six buildings that run from Boyle Avenue are all set back between 0-6 feet from the property line. Therefore, an 8- foot setback would be consistent with the existing development on the block and would not have an adverse impact on health, safety, or physical environment. The Project also proposes a 10-foot rear yard in lieu of a 15-foot rear yard. Because of the irregular shape and size of the lot, the building s footprint must extend five additional feet into the portion that would normally be reserved for the rear yard. The depth of the lot along the northern property line is approximately 69 feet, which is where the new construction would take place. Furthermore, the rear property line abuts the publicly-owned right-of-way for Interstate 5. Because of this, no sensitive uses (i.e. residential land, schools, or institutions) exist or will exist on the property abutting the rear lot line, thereby requiring a rear yard to buffer the use or mass of the proposed building. Therefore, a 10-foot setback would be compatible with the existing land uses to the rear of the site and would not have an adverse impact on health, safety, or physical environment. Finally, the Project proposes a 4-foot northerly side yard in lieu of the required 8-foot side yard. In order to fit the proposed building onto the site and provide a 10-foot passageway/building separation, the building must be positioned closer to the northerly lot line. The property abutting the northerly lot line is currently vacant. The 4-foot side yard will provide an adequate buffer for the abutting property, should future development occur, and will ensure the physical accommodation of the additional units with the existing building on-site and would not have an adverse impact on health, safety, or physical environment. BUILDING ARRANGEMENT The City of Los Angeles Municipal Code (LAMC) mandates various requirements, which apply when multiple buildings are situated on a single lot. These requirements are most often applied to larger residential complexes, but, as there is no minimum unit threshold, they would also apply to the new 5-unit building proposed by the project. The applicant requests relief from LAMC C.2(a), which requires a building separation of 26 feet for the project as designed, and per LAMC C.2(b), which requires a passageway of 14 feet from the entrance of each unit to the street. In lieu of these requirements, the Applicant proposes a minimum passageway and building separation of 10 feet. In both code sections, the required width has a base measurement (passageway) or reduced option (separation) of 10 feet. The width of 10 feet

24 would admit a vehicle in an emergency and provides a reasonable buffer between units in the different buildings. Due to the unique shape and size of the project site, the provision of additional units, including the affordable unit, would be physically impossible if the full 26-foot separation and 14-foot passageway was required. The space between the existing building and the property line is approximately 38 feet, thus a 26-foot building separation would leave only 12 feet in which to locate the new building footprint and provide a northerly side yard. Furthermore, the building separation and passageway measurement excludes the exterior staircase, which is approximately six feet wide, thereby providing a virtual 16-foot separation/passageway between the closest edge of the existing building and the fagade of the new building. Therefore, a building separation and passageway of 10 feet would not have an adverse impact on health, safety, or physical environment. PARKING The Applicant requests a waiver of the requirements for five (5) on-site parking spaces. The project is eligible for Parking Option 1, which requires one space for each studio unit. However, because of the steeply sloping topography of the project site and the desire to maintain the existing apartment building on-site, there is no available area to provide five spaces of parking. Providing parking underground would be physically and financially infeasible and would preclude the construction of the residential units, including the affordable unit. On-street parking is uniquely available on this portion of Boyle Avenue due to multiple, substandard lots with no active land use, as well as the proximity of the project site to the freeway underpass. Furthermore, the proposed studios would likely be occupied by individuals rather than couples or families, and thus would not negatively impact local street parking. Therefore, the waiver of the five required parking spaces would not have an adverse impact on health, safety, or physical environment. For all of the reasons cited above, the Off-Menu Incentives are necessary to ensure the provision of affordable housing on-site, and to physically accommodate this public benefit Project for the City of Los Angeles.
