then, setback requirements ha'Ve changed, creating the violation. The
loading dock location cannot be changed without major modification to

ENGINEER'S REPORT
CHOE MEAT COMPANY
2637 VERNON AVENUE
VARIANCE APPLICATION
AUGUST 30, 1995
Choe Meat Company has requested a variance from the
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance section 26.4.2-8, Development
Standards, for the property located at 2637 Vernon Avenue in the
City of Vernon. The building that it owns was constructed with
two conforming truck loading spaces and nine non-conforming truck
loading spaces measuring 10.0 feet in width and 58.2 feet in
length. It has stated that only vehicles of smaller lengths will
be used at the non-conforming truck loading spaces. The building
is used for processing of food and is approximately 13,950 square
feet in size.
Section 26.4.2-7 (b) requires two truck loading spaces for
buildings with a gross floor area between 8,001 and 25,000 square
feet in size. Section 26.4.2-8 (c) of the Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance specifies that each loading space shall be a minimum of
10 feet wide and 65 feet long and section 26.4.6-4 (c) provides
that a non-conforming building must comply with these standards
within five years of April 18, 1989 unless a variance is granted.
Choe Meat Company has indicated that requiring the non-
conforming truck loading spaces to be 65 feet long by 10 feet
wide would be a hardship. It has indicated that it has no
plans for expansion or alteration of the building configuration.
.
. -
The operation is in conformance with the Zoning Ordinance and
General Plan. Therefore, it is recommended that the variance be
granted with the following conditions: (a) the usage of the non-
conforming truck loading spaces shall be limited so that no truck
parked at the loading docks shall extend into the existing street
right-of-way as shown on the Master Plan of streets, dated June
16, 1992; and (b) all existing and future tenants shall be
notified of this restriction and a condition stating this shall
be placed in all future leases.
