1. The patio cover is located on a site that contains environmentally sensitive lands.

2. The patio cover encroaches into any required side yards or established setbacks.

3. The property is located in the Coastal Zone or any site regulated by a Planned Residential Development (PRD) permit or Planned Infill Residential Development (PIRD) permit.

4. The patio cover is located within the boundaries of an adopted historic district. Properties determined eligible for the California or national register of historic places or properties designated by Historic Resources Board  (HRB) as individually significant.
