RESOLVE TO DENY THE APPEAL filed by Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility (SAFER) (Representative: Victoria Yundt, Lozeau Drury LLP), and THEREBY SUSTAIN the determination of the LACPC in approving a Site Plan Review, pursuant to Los Angeles Municipal Code Section 16.05, for a development project that creates or results in an increase of 50 or more dwelling units or guest rooms; construction of a five-story, 56-foot tall mixed-use residential building comprising 132 dwelling units (including 18 Very Low-Income units) and 5,444 square feet of ground-floor commercial space; the Project will be approximately 85,793 square feet in floor area with a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 2.6:1. The Project will provide 97 residential and 16 commercial parking spaces in a subterranean and partial at-grade parking level. The site is currently improved with three single-family dwellings with warehouse/commercial uses, and two non-protected onsite trees, all of which will be demolished. An existing wireless telecommunications facility (cell tower) is proposed to remain. Three non protected street trees may be removed from the public right-of-way. The Project assumes a worst-case scenario of removing all street trees, in the event of changes to the right-of-way improvement plans after approval of the environmental clearance. However, this environmental analysis does not authorize the removal of any street trees without prior approval of Urban Forestry, in compliance with Los Angeles Municipal Code Sections 62.169 and 62.170 and their applicable findings. The Project will also involve the grading of approximately 12,000 cubic yards of soil; for the properties located at 1218 1238 West Manchester Avenue, subject to Conditions of Approval.
