RE: Appeal of Concept Design Review Incompleteness Determination 615 S. Catalina Avenue
DHP2024-00099
Council District #7
Dear Mr. Tang:
The appeal of a determination that an application for Concept Design Review is incomplete for processing at 615 South Catalina Avenue was considered by the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) on May 16, 2024.
At the conclusion of the public hearing, a motion was made to deny the appeal and uphold the determination that the submitted Concept Design Review application is incomplete by a vote of 3-0. As a result, action was taken to uphold the determination that the application is incomplete.
The BZA's determination was based on the staff report and all attachments and on the oral and written testimony presented at the hearing and included in the record. In summary, the BZA found that the application was incomplete because the following items listed on the City's application form had not been provided to the City:
1. Application Fees
Application fees are required to review and process the Concept Design Review application. No application fees had been paid at the time of the BZA's decision.
2. Design Evolution Information
Preliminary Consultation is the first step of the three-step design review process (Pasadena Municipal Code (PMC) Section 17.61.030.0.). Concept Design Review is the second step.
Applicants are required to demonstrate visually and in writing how the Concept Design Review application (second step) addresses the comments provided during Preliminary Consultation (first step).
Your application for Concept Design Review was submitted before Preliminary Consultation was completed. Consequently the "Design Evolution Exhibits" listed in the BZA staff report were not submitted to the City.
175 North Garfield Ave. • Pasadena, CA 91101-1704

3. Zoning Code Compliance
PMC Section 17.60.060.A.5.a provides that an application shall not be accepted as complete un/ess it is in compliance with all zoning district requirements or an application for a Variance or Zoning Map Amendment has been filed. The Predevelopment Plan Review found that the project does not comply with the applicable development standards in the Zoning Code. The Concept Design Review Application therefore cannot be found complete until an application is made for a Variance or Zoning Map Amendment.
You are hereby notified that, pursuant to Pasadena Municipal Code Chapter 17.72, any person affected or aggrieved by the decision of the Board of Zoning Appeals has the right to appeal this decision within ten days of the decision of the BZA. Prior to that date, a member of the City Council may request that it be called for review to the City Council. However, if there is a request for a call for review, an appeal may still be filed within the appeal period. If the tenth day falls on a day when City offices are closed, the appeal deadline shall be extended through the next day when offices are open. The decision becomes effective on the eleventh day from the date of the decision. Based on the above, the last day to file an appeal is May 28, 2024. The effective date of this case will be May 29, 2024. The appeal fee is $2,481 .01.
For further information regarding this case please contact Rathar Duong at (626) 744-7346 or [email protected].
Sincerely,
