45 North Venice Blvd will be heard 7 November, 1:30 pm at West Los Angeles Municipal Building, 1645 Corinth Ave, 90025.

The applicant seeks a Zone Change to modify the Permanent “Q” Qualified Conditions as regulated by Ordinance No. 164,235, to allow a change of use from art gallery to office, general retail, joint living and work quarters, art gallery, and another uses consistent with the neighborhood character. No new construction is proposed. The subject request is to allow modifications as it pertains to the existing art gallery use. The “Q” Condition stipulates that the subject property shall be used “exclusively for an art gallery and associated uses” and also limits hours of operation. Due to the specific use and operational constraints contained within the “Q” conditions, the applicant is requesting a zone change to amend Ordinance No. 164,235 by removing the specific land use restrictions and limited hours of operation. The zone change requested will not change the underlying zoning, as it will remain [T][Q]C1.5-1-O-CA, and any future changes to the site would be processed under all applicable rules and regulations of the City of Los Angeles Municipal Code (LAMC) in effect at that time.

After the hearing, the Hearing Officer will prepare a report, including a recommendation, which will be considered by the West Los Angeles Area Planning Commission at a later date.
