STAFF REPORT
GLOBAL APPAREL, INC.
2726 FRUITLAND AVENUE
VARIANCE APPLICATION
March 23, 2006
The owner of the property, located at 2726 Fruitland Avenue
in the City of Vernon, Global Apparel, Inc. (hereinafter referred
to as "Global Apparel"), has requested a variance from Section
26.4.2-8(c) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, Development
Standards.
BACKGROUND
Global Apparel owns the property identified by the address
2726 Fruitland Avenue located in the M-Zone, General Industrial,
in the City of Vernon. The building located at 2726 Fruitland
Avenue was constructed with three nonconforming truck loading
spaces measuring 12.0 feet in width and 52.5 feet in length. The
nonconforming truck loading spaces front Fruitland Avenue. It has
stated that only vehicles of smaller lengths will be used at the
nonconforming truck -loading spaces. The building is used for
Office, manufacturing and warehousing and is approximately
103,510 square feet in size.
Global Apparel is requesting a variance from the
requirements of Section 26.4.2-8(c) be issued to it at this time
for the continued use of the nonconforming truck loading spaces
with the condition that the spaces be utilized by smaller trucks
that will not extend in the street right-of-way. Global Apparel
has stated that it will advise all future tenants on any
-1-
conditions placed on the variance. According to Section 26.4.6-
4(d), the City Council may, under certain circumstances issue a
variance from the off-street parking, access and loading
requirements of this chapter
REASON FOR VARIANCE
Section 26.4.2-8(c) of the current City of Vernon
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance specifies that each truck loading
space shall be a minimum of 10 feet wide and 65 feet long.
Section 26.4.6-4(c) provides that a nonconforming building must
comply with these standards within five (5) years of April 18,
1989 unless a variance is granted.
As previously mentioned the applicant's building was built
with three nonconforming truck -loading spaces. The nonconforming
truck loading spaces front Fruitland Avenue. Since the spaces are
directly facing Fruitland Avenue, trucks must back off the public
right-of-way in order to access the spaces. In order for the
building to conform with the current Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance, a significant portion of the building would need to be
demolished.
The building has been used for office, manufacturing, and
warehousing in the past and despite a change in occupancy, it
continues to be used for the same purposes.
As previously mentioned, the applicant has agreed that only
vehicles of smaller lengths will be used at the shorter
nonconforming truck loading spaces to ensure that vehicles will
not extend into the street right-of-way while parked in the
-2-
loading spaces. As long as the applicant complies with this
condition, the variance will be consistent with the objectives of
the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and General Plan.
VARIANCE METHODOLOGY
The applicant is requesting a variance from Section 26.4.2-
8(c) of the current City of Vernon Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance, which specifies that each truck loading space shall be
a minimum of 10 feet wide and 65 feet long. Section 26.4.6-4(c)
provides that a nonconforming building must comply with these
standards within five (5) years of April 18, 1989 unless a
variance is granted.
PARKING ANALYSIS
According to Section 26.4.6-4(c), where insufficient space
exists on the lot or parcel for compliance with the size of the
existing loading provisions of Chapter 26, the size of the
existing loading docks shall be brought into compliance at the
time of any changes in use, occupancy, expansion, structural
alteration of the building. A variance from off-street parking,
access and loading requirements may be granted under Section
26.4.6-4 (d) .
Pursuant to Section 26.4.6, the intent of Chapter 26 was to
permit nonconformities in buildings, structures, and uses which
existed at the time the ordinance was adopted to continue for a
reasonable length of time, but not to encourage their survival.
As previously mentioned the applicant's building was built
with three nonconforming truck -loading spaces. In order for the
-3-
building to conform with the current Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance, a significant portion of the building would need to be
demolished. The applicant indicated that they have no plans for
expansion or alteration of the building configuration at this
time. Therefore, strict application of the off-street parking,
access and loading requirements of the ordinance would cause an
unreasonable hardship to the applicant at this time.
Since the site was previously used for office,
manufacturing, and warehousing it has not been vacant for a
continuous period of more than one year, and no structural
alterations are proposed, the City Council may grant a variance
from the off street parking, access and loading requirements of
the Zoning Ordinance. However, should the City Council approve
this variance the site shall retain its legal nonconforming
status and will be required to comply with the size requirements
of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance not otherwise addressed by
a grant of a variance.
The building at 2726 Fruitland Avenue has three
nonconforming truck loading spaces measuring 12.0 feet in width
and 52.5 feet in length. The usage of these nonconforming truck -
loading spaces shall be limited and the occupant will be required
to use shorter trucks in the nonconforming spaces to avoid
protruding into the public right-of-way as defined by the Master
Plan of Streets dated November 17, 2004.

V
CEQA REVIEW
The proposed site is surrounded by industrial and commercial
uses compatible with the proposed use. No potentially significant
impacts are expected to result from noise, odor, dust, smoke,
light or glare from the project. The project is categorically
exempt under Section 15301 of the California Environmental
Quality Act because it is an existing facility with no expansion
of use. A Notice of Exemption will be prepared and filed with the
County Clerk's office.
STAFF FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS
Staff finds the following to be true:
a) The applicant's building at 2726 Fruitland Avenue has two
nonconforming truck loading spaces measuring 12.0 feet in width
and 52.5 feet in length. For the building to conform with the
current Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, a significant portion of
the building would need to be demolished.
b) This building has been used for office, manufacturing,
and warehousing in the past and despite a change in occupancy, it
continues to be used for the same purposes.
c) The applicant has stated that only vehicles of smaller
lengths will be used at the shorter nonconforming truck loading
spaces to ensure that vehicles will not extend into the street
right-of-way while in the loading spaces. As long as the
applicant complies with this condition, the variance will be
consistent with the objectives of the Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance and the General Plan.
-5-
Therefore, it is recommended that the variance be granted
with the following conditions imposed on the permit to adequately
protect the public interests:
a. The facility shall be operated in accordance with all
current codes, rules, and regulations and subject to permit fees
as adopted by the City of Vernon not otherwise addressed by this
grant of a variance.
b. The facility shall be operated in a manner that will
prevent unsanitary conditions, odors or other nuisances.
C. This variance shall automatically expire at the time of
any expansion or structural alteration of the building, or on

the parking, access or loading area(s) allowed by this variance
shall be discontinued unless brought into compliance with all
applicable standards for parking, access and loading areas set
forth in the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. It is the intent of
the City Council that said parking, access or loading area(s) be
treated in the same manner as a legal nonconforming use subject
to Section 26.4.6-4(b).
d. All parking and loading areas necessary for Global
Apparel operations shall be striped in an acceptable manner to
the Director of Community.Services & Water and shall be paved
with a hard durable surface material and shall be adequately
drained, and kept free of dust, mud, trash and weeds. Where
parking or maneuvering areas adjoin the public street, a barrier
-6-
wall or landscaping shall be maintained to meet City standards.
Adequate on -site parking shall be maintained so that no on street
parking or staging will occur.
e. The project site shall be maintained substantially in
compliance with the site plan submitted, as part of this variance
application.
f. The usage of the nonconforming truck loading spaces
shall be limited so that no trucks parked at or using the loading
docks shall extend into the street right-of-way as shown on the
Master Plan of Streets, dated November 17, 2004.
g. This variance shall only be valid while Global Apparel
remains the owner of the property. A new variance will be
required upon change of ownership.
h. All existing and future tenants shall be notified of
these restrictions and a condition stating this shall be placed
in all future leases.
i. The facility shall be operated in a manner, which will
not impede traffic on Fruitland Avenue.
j. Signs shall be posted in front of the nonconforming
truck loading spaces stating the restrictions on the length of

the premises. No inoperative vehicles shall be stored on -site.
-7-
All vehicles operated at the facility shall be tuned and
maintained in accordance with applicable emission standards.
1. Noncompliance with any condition shall constitute
sufficient grounds for the City Council of the City of Vernon to
void this variance and require the applicant, Global Apparel to
comply with the truck parking and loading requirements of the
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance.

2726 FRUITLAND AVE.
VERNON, CA 90058
DESCRIPTION:
Variance applied for (described in detail the nature and purpose of this request for
which the premises are to be used) attach additional sheet(s) if necessary:
Pursuant to Section 26.4.2-8(c) of the City of Vernon Municipal Code requiring truck
parking/loading space to be a minimum of 65'-0" on length, herein request is a variance
for an existing 32'-6"L truck parking/loading space for an existing garment
manufacturing facility.
VARIANCE FINDINGS:
1. That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land,
structure, or building involved and which are not generally applicable to other
lands, structures, or buildings in the same vicinity and zone:
The subject lot is an approximately 166,399 square foot rectangular shape lot on
the south side of Fruitland Ave. The truck loading dock on the north side of the
building is relatively small for its intended use. The existing structure also has a
more accessible truck loading dock on the south side of the building.
2. That literal interpretation of the provisions of this ordinance would deprive the
applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other propertied in the same vicinity and
zone in which the property is located, under the terms of this chapter:
3. That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from actions of the
applicant:
The building was constructed in accordance to development standards when it
was originally constructed. The circumstances on the site and building were not
the actions of the applicant. The applicant recently purchased this property.
4. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special
privilege that is denied by this chapter to other lands, structures, or buildings in
the same vicinity and zone in which the property is located:
Due to the extenuating existing physical circumstances on the site and building,
the granting of this variance does in no way constitute any grant of special
privilege to the subject property, but denied to other properties in the same
vicinity and zone.
5. That the granting of such variance will be in harmony not adversely affect the
Comprehensive General Plan:
The granting of such variance will not adversely affect the city's General Plan in
that the existing non -conforming truck parking/loading will not be disruptive to
traffic and circulation in the area.
The undersigned has duly prepared the attached "Property Owners List". The list includes all of
the names, and respective addresses, of persons being owners of property any part of which is
within 500 feet of the outer boundaries of the subject property. This information is to be obtained
