the property located at 4800 Alameda Street in the City of
Vernon. The proposed parcel measuring approximately 134,422
square feet is non-rectangular in shape because of a railroad
spur which lies adjacent to the parcel. Pan Metal corporation is
proposing to build a 72,000 square foot building to be used for
garment manufacturing and as part of the development proposes to
construct a curb cut for a driveway to be used by trucks 63.0 feet
from the point of tangency of the proposed curb return on 48th
Street.
Section 26.4.2-8 (e) specifies that no curb cut for a
driveway to any parking or loading facility shall be permitted
within 75 feet of the point of tangency of any curb return for a
driveway used by trucks.
Pan Metal Corporation has indicated that the unusual shape
of the parcel and the requirements of section 26.4.2-8 (e)
creates a hardship on the usefulness of the parcel. As part of
the development, Pan Metal Corporation intends to expand the
existing curb to have a 50-foot radius, thus improving the
traffic conditions at the existing corner. If the curb return
.-,., -, _J
were to remain as it currently exits, the curbcut for the
driveway would be in full compliance. The operation is in
conformance with the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan.
Therefore, it is recommended that the variance be granted subject
to the following conditions: (a) Pan Metal Corporation shall
expand the curb return on the southeast corner of Alameda and
48th streets to have a radius of 50.0 feet; and (b) the curbcut
for the driveway on 48th street shall be no less than 63.0 feet
from said expanded curb return.
