The Zoning Administrator of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, <br />determines and declares as follows: <br />A. Dr. Long Nguyen (“Applicant”) is requesting approval of Minor Exception No. <br />2019-02 to allow the construction of a four (4) foot high fence within the front <br />yard setback area of the property located at 1105 South Flintridge Drive, a <br />non-arterial street. <br />B. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code (“SAMC”) Section 41-610(a), <br />approval of a minor exception is required to allow a fence higher than <br />three (3) feet if a property is located on a non-arterial street. <br />C. Minor Exception No. 2019-02 came before the Zoning Administrator of the <br />City of Santa Ana on April 10, 2019, for a duly noticed public hearing. <br />D. For Minor Exception No. 2019-02, the Zoning Administrator of the City of <br />Santa Ana determines that the following findings have been established: <br />1. That because of special circumstances applicable to the subject <br />property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, <br />that the strict application of the zoning ordinance is found to deprive <br />the subject property of privileges not otherwise at variance with the <br />intent and purpose of the provisions of this Chapter. <br />There are special circumstances applicable to the subject property <br />where the interpretation of the zoning ordinance is found to deprive <br />the subject property of privileges not otherwise at variance with the <br />intent and purpose of the provisions of the zoning code. The purpose <br />and intent of the code requirement is to prevent a “fortress-like” <br />appearance in residential areas; however, the size and scale of the <br />proposed fence is compatible with the residence and similar fences in <br />the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed four-foot tall fence <br />would complement the size and scale of this structure. <br />A-7
