Discussion followed wherein City Attorney Gorlick stated that the only manner in which this could legally be done would be through an exception procedure to the zoning ordinance, as the question, basically, is whether the installation of this extra kitchen creates an R-2 use. After analysis of the situation, his conclusion was that It did, as normally an extra kitchen is not installed. Mrs. Phillip Biette, 4220 Bogart Avenue, Baldwin Park, stated that she had not done anything to the room bedroom) itself, with the.exceptlon of installing a 6-way unit electric stove, refrigerator and sink); that this need of another kitchen was occasioned by her sister and her five year old child living with them.
