447 Councilman Rhodes moved to REVERSE the action of the Planning Commission and grant the Variance , seconded by Councilman Keckley . City Manager suggested that Council also consider as a result of the considerations involved in this particular application, as well as others , a motion to request Planning Commission to review the historical 10-foot separation between house and accessory buildings , noting that a number of them exist in the community , just to see if the standard still exists , particularly with regard to rehabilitation of homes with 50--foot width lots . Councilman Rhodes asked that his motion stand as offered , and any additional motion be made separately . City Attorney advised that in taking this action and granting the Variance , it was necessary for Council to make the finding in accordance with Section 43 . 4 which relates to special circumstances and that granting the Variance would not constitute a special privilege , and that granting the Variance would not be contrary to intent of the Ordinance . Council indicated motion did imply this intent . Motion carried . ( MINUTE ORDER #72-54 ) Councilman Petersen moved to request Planning Commission to review this particular Section of the Zoning Ordinance in all respects ( Section 32 . 14 ( a ) ) , seconded by Councilman Rhodes . Councilman Henderson indicated she hoped the review would include the number of lots that would be affected by this problem . Motion carried . ( MINUTE ORDER #72-55 ) SPHERE OF INFLUENCE , Town of Woodside - Redwood City . Staff report indicated that Council Committee and Staff had met with representatives of the Town of Woodside for final review of the sphere of influence for boundary purposes between the two cities . Proposal was being presented prior to the LAFC public hearing set for March 15 , 1972 . Map was submitted to Council . Councilman Keckley reported the Committee had met with Woodside on several occasions to restate and insure concurrence with regard to the lines on the map , except for the line along Alameda toward Atherton, which Town of Woodside did not care to discuss . Committee ' s recommendation was that Redwood City go on record as supporting the boundary along Alameda as shown on the map . Boundary in the hills area was agreed to on the basis of allowing the two Staffs to determine flow lines for drainage according to what would be most beneficial for the people living in the area . Boundary with respect to the college -- site and Interstate 280 was agreed upon between the two cities . City Manager indi- cated that , while he had not been able to attend the last meeting, at Staff level it was indicated the only reason to propose boundary on the other side of 280 was so as to include a PG&E substation . He indicated he did not know the assessed valuation , but it was felt it should be considered . Councilman Keckley advised that it was determined the substation should stay in Woodside and the boundary set accordingly . Councilman Henderson added that it was understandable that Woodside preferred to maintain control of the entrance into their community at Canada Road . 3 -13 -72
