Project Location: 7500–7580 W. Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90046

ENV-2014-1707-EIR
State Clearinghouse Number: 2014111007

Council District: 4 – David Ryu

Community Plan Area: Hollywood

Project Description: Faring Capital, the Applicant, proposes to develop a new mixed-use project with 236 residential dwelling units above 30,000 square feet of ground-floor neighborhood-serving retail and restaurant uses (the Project) in the Hollywood Community of the City of Los Angeles. Of the 236 residential units proposed, 20 residential units would be set aside as affordable housing for Very Low Income residents. The Project would include approximately 307 parking spaces for the residential uses and approximately 145 parking spaces for the commercial uses for a total of 452 automobile parking spaces. The Project would also provide approximately 389 short- and long-term bicycle parking spaces for residents and visitors, which exceeds the requirements of the LAMC. These new uses, which would comprise approximately 210,288 square feet of floor area, would be located on two adjacent sites (referred to as the West Site and the East Site) that together comprise approximately 1.64 gross acres. To provide for the new uses, approximately 39,939 square feet of existing low-rise commercial uses and surface parking would be removed.

If you wish to submit comments regarding the Draft EIR, please reference the file number above and submit them in writing by 4:00 P.M. on August 1, 2016.

2016-06-21 14:30 | CA
TIME LIMIT: 7/11/16; LAST DAY FOR COUNCIL ACTION: 7/1/16
Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and related California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) findings, and appeal filed by Sylvie Shain under California Public Resources Code Section 21151(c) of CEQA, from the determination of the Zoning Administrator in adopting the MND (ENV-2015-2684-MND) and approving a Zone Variance to permit off-site parking to be located 925 feet from the use it serves for the property located at 1850 North Cherokee Avenue within the Hollywood Community Plan.

(On March 8, 2016, the Central Area Planning Commission failed to reach a consensus, resulting in the automatic denial of the appeal and the reaffirmation of the determination of the Zoning Administrator to approve a Conditional Use to permit a hotel in the [Q]R4-2 Zone, a Zone Variance to permit off-site parking to be located 925 feet from the use it serves, and an adjustment to permit a 9-foot, 5-inch rear yard in lieu of 15 feet for the exiting non-conforming building located in the [Q]R4-2 Zone.)

(Zoning Administrator’s letter dated June 10, 2016, received and filed the Zone Variance inasmuch as the Applicant has withdrawn the Zone Variance application.)

Applicant: David Lesser, Millennium Settlement Consulting

Representative: Dana Sayles, Three6ixty

Case No. ZA-2015-2683-CU-ZV-ZAA-1A

Dear Friend,
I invite you to attend an event my office is organizing in our district to protect seniors from becoming a victim of scams.

Please join us for a FREE Senior Scam Stopper Seminar to learn what you can do to prevent you, or someone you know, from becoming a victim of a scam.
