Document Description
The proposed project is for the remodel and total addition of 871 square feet, including a 58 square foot front porch, to an existing one (1) story, 440 square foot single-family dwelling on an approximately 5,160 square foot lot, located in the R1-1-CDO Zone. The project also includes the construction of a new 46 square foot uncovered rear deck, the demolition of an existing 167 square foot detached garage and the construction of a new 456 square foot attached garage. As an addition to an existing single-family dwelling and demolition of small structures, the project qualifies for the Class 1 and Class 3 Categorical Exemptions. The site is zoned R1-1-CDO and has a General Plan Land Use Designation of Low Residential. As shown in the case file, the project is consistent with the applicable Northeast Los Angeles Community Plan designation and policies and all applicable zoning designations and regulations. The subject site is wholly within the City of Los Angeles, on a site that is approximately 0.12 acres (5,160 square feet). Lots adjacent to the subject site are developed with single-family dwellings or are vacant. The site is previously disturbed and therefore is not, and has no value as, a habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species.
