Mr. Gonzales advised that Mr. Carnero proposes to construct a room addition, 20 3241' feet by 26 feet, to the rear of the existing house, which would leave a rear yard setback of 18 feet, and this is contrary to Section 18.10.050 of the Colton Municipal Code which states that every lot and every parcel of land in an R-1 zone shall have a rear yard not less than 25 feet in depth. Mr. Gonzales said all of the adjacent lots to the subject property meet the required R-1 setback requirements. Mr. Gonzales stated the Planning Commission held a public hearing on this matter, October 9, 1979, and recommended denial of the Variance application due to four findings as listed in Planning Commission Resolution No. 928.
