Holland was again presented on Variance Ap- plication No. 1493, to build two single-family dwellings on property at a location south of 1517 No. Parsons Place, in the R-1 District, wherein Applicant appeals the denial of the Zoning Administrator and requests reconsideration on Variance. Mrs. Jack Nishiwaki, 1509 No. Parsons Street, stated her property is next door to the proposed construction and the frontage of the parcel is too narrow for both parking and the ingress and egress of cars; further, an increased dwelling would create a problem in the use of the septic tank and the supply of private well water. Mrs. A~her Hartel, Jr., 4709 W. Sunswept Avenue, presented communications fr~n Mrs. Leo LaCascia, 4717 W. Sunswept Avenue, and Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Holland, 4701 W. Sun- swept Avenue, in protest of the two dwellings, and on motion of Councilman Brewer, seconded by Hubbard and carried, the co~mmu~ cations were received end filed. Mrs. Hartel objected to a change of zone for this area, stating it is an attractive, re- sidential single-family section, and granting the Variance would similarly encourag, the owners of surrounding property. Mrs. J. E. O~Neill, 4621 Sunswept Avenue, ob- Jected to the drainage problem from a septic tank to the rear of her property, and an additional unit on one lot would depreciate the area. The applicant stated that nearby property in the City of Garden Grove had been zoned Central Manufacturing, and the proposed R-2 use of his parcel should not be adverse to the c.'-,!~!~unity; als¢ adequate parking would be provided and a capacity cesspool to take care of the proE lem. On motion of Councilman Hubbard, seconded by Schlueter and carried, Appeal Al) plication No. 27, filed by Willis L. Holland, was denied, the rec.-...~endation of the Zoning Administrator affirmed, and Variance Application No. 1493 denied.
