A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SAN RAFAEL GRANTING APPROVAL OF A CERTI-
FICATE OF COMPLIANCE FOR ASSESSOR'S PARCEL
NUMBER 14-024-04, JEWELL STREET
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN RAFAEL RESOLVES as follows:
WHEREAS, the application has been received for Certifi-
cate of Compliance for Assessor's Parcel 14-024-04, Jewell Street;
and
WHEREAS, City Staff has determined that the subject
lot is commonly owned with Assessor's Parcel Number 14-024-06,
279 Union Street, and is subject to merger pursuant to the City's
Merger Ordinance (15.10 of the Municipal Code) because the lot is
undeveloped and substandard in terms of width by virtue of the
City's Slope Ordinance (15.32 of the Municipal Code); and
WHEREAS, the Certificate was referred to the City
Council which, pursuant to the Merger Ordinance, is charged with
the responsibility of hearing evidence and making determinations
regarding lot mergers; and
WHEREAS, the City Council held a duly noticed public
meeting on the requested Certificate and concluded that the
Certificate should be granted and the properties not merged
because:
1. The subject parcel was legally created and meets
the minimum area requirements of the Zoning and
Slope Ordinances.
2. Although the subject parcel is less than the
minimum width required by the Slope Ordinance for a
parcel of its slope, Section 15.34.020(c) of the
Slope Ordinance provides for allowance of a lot of
lesser width than required, if it can be demonstrated
that a reasonable and realistic access to an adequate
building site exists. The City Engineer has deter-
mined and adjacent single family development demon-
strates that such reasonable and realistic access to
an adequate building site exists.
RESOLUTION NO. 7C,v1
3. Merger would serve no useful purpose in that merger
would create a split -zoned parcel, the vacant
portion of which could still be developed but not
sold separately.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the San Rafael City
Council hereby directs City staff to issue a Certificate of Com-
pliance for Assessor's Parcel Number 14-024-04, Jewell Street,
upon the following findings of fact and with condition (a) as
noted below:
1. The subject parcel was legally created and meets
the minimum area requirements of the Zoning and
Slope Ordinances.
2. Although the subject parcel is less than the
minimum width required by the Slope Ordinance for a
parcel of its slope, Section 15.34.020(c) of the
Slope Ordinance provides for allowance of a lot of
lesser width than required, if it can be demon-
strated that a reasonable and realistic access to
an adequate building site exists. The City
Engineer has determined and adjacent single family
development demonstrates that such reasonable and
realistic access to an adequate building site
exists.
3. Merger would serve no useful purpose in that merger
would create a split -zoned parcel, the vacant
portion of which could still be developed but not
sold separately.
(a) Four parking spaces shall be provided on-site
to the satisfaction of the Planning Department
and shall be indicated on the plans submitted
for building permit approval.
(b) The site plan submitted for a building permit
shall indicate on-site turnaround capability to
the Planning Director's satisfaction.
