Title
KRISTI A. DUMONT TRUST ENCROACHMENT (PA2025-0228)
Site Location: 520 POINTSETTIA AVENUE UNITS A, B & C
Recommendation
Summary:
A request to waive City Council Policy L-6 to retain certain existing, non-compliant private improvements encroaching into the 50-foot-wide Third Avenue public right-of-way and the 50-foot-wide Poinsettia Avenue public right-of-way. As part of this consideration, staff is recommending the removal of other non-compliant improvements within the same public rights-of-way due to traffic safety concerns.
Recommended Actions:
1. Find the project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3) (Preliminary Review), and Section 15301 Class 1 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines, because it has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment; and
2. Adopt Resolution No. PC2026-001, waiving City Council Policy L-6 (Encroachments in Public Rights-of-Way) and approving Encroachment No. N2025-0390, to retain certain existing improvements which encroach into the public right-of-way, including brick hardscape, a low brick wall, brick pilaster, a gate, and landscaping and requiring the removal of an existing fence, lights, hedge, and tall landscaping within the traffic safety visibility area.
