Board grants two-year conditional variance for second kitchen at 260 Edwards Boulevard
Summary
The ZBA approved a two-year conditional variance allowing a second kitchen on the first floor at 260 Edwards Boulevard to be used only by Richard and Claire Barbadillo.
The Long Beach Zoning Board of Appeals granted a two‑year conditional temporary variance that allows a second kitchen on the first floor of 260 Edwards Boulevard for the exclusive use of Richard and Claire Barbadillo.
Counsel explained the applicant, Carrie Barbadillo, bought and substantially renovated the home and seeks a downstairs kitchen so her elderly parents can stay when they visit from Florida. Counsel and the applicant said the parents are permanent Florida residents and will come up occasionally (summer, holidays) and that the kitchen is strictly for family use. The board discussed administrative classification: staff and counsel confirmed the application will be treated as a two‑year conditional variance so that the kitchen’s use will be limited to the named occupants and can be revoked if conditions are violated.
After a motion and second were recorded, commissioners voted unanimously to grant a two‑year conditional temporary variance limited to Richard and Claire Barbadillo’s occupancy. The motion’s language on the record specified the condition and the two-year term. The board noted the kitchen and use may be subject to building‑department permitting and that the condition will be enforceable by the city if violated.
