SUMMARY:
The project comes before the Board on appeal from the April 9, 2009 Minor Subdivision
Committee's denial of a Lot Line Adjustment described above PLN080424/San Ardo
Properties, LLC). The appellant, San Ardo Properties, LLC, contends the findings or decision or
conditions are not supported by the evidence and that the decision was contrary to law see
Exhibit Q.
The proposal is for a Lot Line Adjustment among four 4) legal lots of record located in the Town
of San Ardo, described as Lots 13, 14, 15 and 16 of Block 9 recorded at Volume 3, Page 76. The
zoning for all four lots is Light Commercial LC). The lots are currently developed with a
commercial building and a single family residence. The current lot lines run through these
structures. The Lot Line Adjustment application proposes to re-configure the lots, so that the
residence would be within its own lot, but the commercial building would continue to lay over the
reconfigured property lines.
Under the Subdivision Map Act Government Code section 66412 d)), the reconfigured parcels
that would result from a lot line adjustment must conform to the local general plan and zoning
ordinances. Proposed Parcel D, if created, would result in a residential use single family residence)
on a parcel that is designated as Light Commercial" by the Monterey County Zoning Map
designated as Commercial" under the general plan.

SIGNED BOARD REPORTX��"/��The existing conditions of the subject lots conform to the General Plan and Zoning designation.
The four lots of record have both a commercial building and a residential structure over the
property lines, and according to their current uses conform to General Plan and the Zoning
Ordinance. Section 21.18.060.L under the Light Commercial Zoning District of the Monterey
County Zoning Ordinance Title 21, allows subject to a Use Permit, All residential uses provided
that the gross square footage of the residential use does not exceed the gross square footage of the
commercial use." The existing parcels have the combined commercial and residential use, and
the commercial gross square footage is greater than the residential square footage. By approving
the subject Lot Line Adjustment, one of the reconfigured parcels, Proposed Parcel D, would lose
the commercial use on that property and be a stand-alone residential parcel, not in compliance
with the regulations pertaining to zoning, subdivision and other applicable provisions of the
County's zoning ordinance and resulting in the violation of these codes.
Other Options:
In the last paragraph of the appellant's statement Exhibit C), the appellant requests that the Board
incorporate a General Plan Amendment and Rezoning into the current General Plan Update for
Proposed Parcel D at no cost to the applicant. If the Board desires to consider revision of the land
use designation this property as part of the General Plan Update, the Board could direct staff to
schedule this revision to the draft General Plan Update on a future agenda. Under this option, the
Board could deny the appeal or, with consent by the applicant, continue the appeal to a date certain
pending action on the General Plan Update.
