d. SAN FRANCISCO PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION PLANS TO REMOVE EUCALYPTUS
TREES ALONG SKYLINE BLVD.
CM Nantell requested Council hold a public hearing on plans of the San Francisco Public Utilities
Commission (SFPUC) to remove 100 eucalyptus trees on their property along Skyline Boulevard.
Pat Martel, Executive Director of the SFPUC, made a presentation of this plan which includes a 5-acre parcel
between 280 and Skyline Boulevard in Burlingame which requires the removal of these trees because they
pose a fire hazard. Native trees and other vegetation will be replanted.
Joe Naras, Land Resources Manager, PUC, described some issues that were discussed during a meeting with
Councilwoman Baylock regarding the eucalyptus trees along Skyline Boulevard such as watershed
management plans and how fire would behave throughout the watershed lands or the adjacent properties.
Pat Martel stated the PUC will work with the community to establish a fire clearance area and assure that in
the future adjacent residents will be safe. When the PUC is ready to come back with a draft, revised plan, a
public meeting will be held to discuss the plan and will seek input from the residents in the community.
Once the revised plan is agreed upon, a date will be scheduled when work will begin.
Mayor O'Mahony opened the public hearing. The following residents spoke in favor of keeping the
eucalyptus trees: Kathy Merryweather, 1535 Los Altos Drive, Mrs. Aji, 1515 Los Altos Drive, Dwayne

BURLINGAMERS UNWILLING TO LIVE WITH BLACKOUTS
Report by BULB on Progress with PG&E During 2003
January 5,2004
A year ago at this time,Burlingame residents were suffering frequent power outages that
resulted in everything from missed appointments and canceled dinner parties to serious
situations such as flooding of homes(because sump pumps were inoperable)and major
problems for people who depend on electrically powered medical equipment.
Burlingamers Unwilling to Live with Blackouts(BULB)formed in the fall of 2002 with the
goal of obtaining more reliable power service.We compiled more than 250 written
complaints about PG&E service and filed them with the California Public Utilities
Commission,which regulates PG&E.We organized two Town Hall Meetings in
December 2002 and January 2003 that were attended by hundreds of residents to
address problems with power reliability.A CPUC commissioner who attended one of
those meetings,Carl Wood,said the complaints were among the most serious he had
heard from any community.
BULB succeeded in getting PG&E's attention.We met every other month during 2003
with PG&E representatives.In addition,at our request,PG&E has been making monthly
written reports to the City Council on its progress in completing a long checklist of
improvements to Burlingame.
PG&E spent more than$2.4 million during 2003 on improvements to Burlingame,and
we are pleased with the results.Residents have reported far fewer outages during
severe storms,and we no longer have the frequent momentary outages that sometimes
required resetting clocks and sprinkler systems several times a day.
In addition to the many physical improvements in circuits,we are happy to report:
• PG&E appointed a Burlingame project manager to oversee improvements.
• PG&E is trying to improve the way it responds to customer complaints during
outages.The goal is to give customers more accurate information about the
nature of the outage and a time period in which service is expected to resume.
• PG&E undergrounded lines at the intersection of EI Camino,Adeline Drive and
Mills Avenue,a site of frequent problems in the system.PG&E did not debit the
city's undergrounding fund for this project.
• PG&E's customer claim form is easier to find on its Web site at www.pge.com.
You can find it by clicking on"Claims"on the top navigation bar.This form used
to be buried on PG&E's Web site.
2337 Poppy Drive,Burlingame,CA 94010•tel:(650)347-3576•email:terry@terrynagel.com
• PG&E has made a senior customer claims representative available to residents
at bimonthly City Council meetings.
• PG&E's senior vegetation management specialist personally responded to tree-
trimming complaints from residents.
BULB tried to get PG&E to set a reliability goal for Burlingame, but PG&E
representatives said they had a "natural resistance" to doing so. So BULB and City
Manager Jim Nantell set a goal for PG&E: It is that the reliability of all Burlingame
circuits match the average reliability of the Peninsula Division as a whole. We are still
trying to obtain data to find out if this goal has been achieved, but preliminary numbers
show that the lights were on far more often during 2003 than in 2002 and 2001.
However, we still have some concerns about sporadic outages that have occurred in
Burlingame in recent months, often on bright, sunny days. For example, there was a
four-hour blackout that affected 10,000 customers on the day before Thanksgiving, and
residents of the Burlingame Hills reported outages ranging from seven to nine hours in
late November and early December. There was a short outage on Dec. 10 in north
Burlingame and a three-hour outage on Dec. 14 in the central part of the city.
When massive blackouts occur in nearby areas, like the pre-Christmas outage in San
Francisco that affected 120,000 customers, we wonder whether the overall infrastructure
is being adequately maintained.
We plan to keep monitoring reliability in Burlingame and ask residents to please continue
reporting outages of any length on Terry Nagel's Web site at www.terrynagel.com, once
power is restored. Just click on the "BULB" page. If you don't have Web access, you can
call Terry at (650) 347-3576. The only way we can track progress is by obtaining
information about outages.
We want to thank PG&E for working to improve reliability in Burlingame. Our next
meeting with PG&E is scheduled to be held in City Hall at 7 p.m. on Wednesday,
February 18, and we invite other residents who are interested in joining our group to
attend.

Honorable Rosalie O'Mahony, Mayor •
Mr. James Nantell, City Manager
City of Burlingame
City Hall
501 Primrose Road
Burlingame, CA 94010
Dear Mayor O'Mahony and Mr. Nantell:
This letter is part of PG&E's ongoing effort to keep the City updated on work to improve service
reliability in Burlingame. It also addresses the outages that occurred on November 22 and 26.
The November 22 outage occurred while the San Mateo Substation was reconfigured to de-
energize a transmission circuit breaker and Transformer Bank#1 to perform maintenance. As
a result, three Burlingame 21 kV circuits (including the San Mateo 2102) were fed from a single
breaker. Unfortunately, an unanticipated unbalanced loading condition resulted in the single
breaker de-energizing the three 21 kV feeders. Operators reacted quickly, restoring power in
33 minutes.
The outage on November 26 was particularly regretful in terms of duration and timing as it
happened the day before Thanksgiving. On Tuesday night, November 25, PG&E performed
switching to de-energize Transformer Bank 9 at San Mateo Substation. Switching was
necessary to facilitate maintenance on a voltage regulator that PG&E believed was the cause
of flickering lights during the previous several days (the flickering lights may have been
perceived as momentary outages by some customers). The switching involved using the Bay
Meadows 2102 circuit to serve customers on the San Mateo 2102 circuit. The work on the
voltage regulator started at 5:00 a.m. Wednesday morning, November 26. At approximately
7:45 a.m. an underground equipment failure occurred on the Bay Meadows 2102 circuit (thus
de-energizing all the customers on this circuit and the San Mateo 2102 customers the circuit
was feeding). Service was restored in the following one to five and a half hours. PG&E
believes that higher than anticipated loads on a section of underground line contributed to the
failure.
I apologize for these outages and their resulting inconvenience. As you and your fellow
residents well know, PG&E has invested a considerable amount of time and effort to address
reliability issues in Burlingame. PG&E believes it has made significant strides in 2003 and to
have these outages occur during the holidays is particularly frustrating to every employee who
is working hard to improve service in the Burlingame area. I assure you that PG&E will
continue to focus on reliability in the Burlingame area and to communicate the steps we are
taking as we have done throughout 2003.
Honorable Rosalie O'Mahony, et al.
January 5, 2004

On a more positive note, PG&E is pleased to report we have completed construction of all
projects identified to address service reliability to the City of Burlingame. Our goal was to
finish the major projects before the arrival of the storm season, and we have achieved this
objective. The cooperation of the city arborist, Department of Public Works and property
owners with trees has been a critical factor in the completion of these projects.
Attached to this letter is an updated action item list that outlines the specific steps taken on the
five identified circuits to address reliability issues affecting the system that serves the City of
Burlingame. Listed below is the progress that we have made in completing those action items
since our October 20th report.
Outage Cause Identification
Signal surveys have been completed and communication equipment installed to allow for
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) to a total of 19 pieces of equipment on the
San Mateo 2102 and Bay Meadows 2101 and 2102 circuits. This will allow remote control of
these devices by PG&E operators, as well as automatic data acquisition of detailed momentary
and sustained outage information to help identify outage locations more quickly and better
identify additional remedies to prevent outages. Of the 19 pieces of equipment, 8 are currently
in service. The remaining 11 devices require field adjustment and testing before releasing
them for service. PG&E will communicate the status of the 11 devices in the next report.
Outage Reduction/Isolation
• Construction crews completed installation of transformer bushing covers and insulated
jumpers on SM 2102 (30 locations) and BM 2101 (4 locations). This work will help prevent
bird/animal-related outages (Al #12a & #20b).
• As reported in our October 20 letter, construction had been completed to relocate overhead
lines underground along Highway Road between Adeline and Mills to avoid future tree-
related outages in this area (Al #7), but we had not actually converted to the underground
system. Conversion to the new underground system has been completed as scheduled.
• At the request of the Department of Public Works, the work to relocate 950 feet of overhead
lines along Airport Boulevard will not take place. We will, however, install midspan
conductor spacers in January at four locations along Airport Boulevard. This will reduce
the likelihood of outages caused by conductors slapping together in high winds.
The latest 2003 outage statistics through January 4 for the five targeted Burlingame circuits
are attached.
We continue to encourage customers to report sustained outages and to get updated outage
information by calling 1-800-PGE-5002. More information on outages and outage safety tips
can be found at www.pge.com.
Honorable Rosalie O'Mahony, et al.

While it is not possible to prevent all outages, we will continue taking steps to address issues
as we find them. Thank you for the opportunity to provide this important update.
Sincerely,

FROM: Parks & Recreation Director (558-7307) BY 'i� '
SUBJECT: APPEAL OF BEAUTIFICATION COMMISSIO ECISION
ON PROTECTED TREE AT 1537 WESTMOOR ROAD
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that Council uphold the denial by the Commission and encourage the
appellants to return to the Commission with documented third party expert opinion showing a
direct relationship between the chimney problems/interior damage (cracks) and the tree.
BACKGROUND:
On September 19 Frouk Kouchek-Ali, the property owner at 1537 Westmoor Road, and his
neighbor Peter Tokarski of 1533 Westmoor Road submitted an application for a permit to
remove a protected tree (exceeds 48" in circumference at 54" above ground level). The tree is a
Coast Live Oak. Reasons cited included interference with the draw of the fireplace chimney,
possible damage to the house foundation, lifting of an incidental path in the yard, and acorn
nuisance. There were no submittals from third party experts, e.g. Certified Arborist, experts in
chimney functions.
The City Arborist inspected the tree. He found the tree to be in good health with many years of
life expectancy. He did see interior cracks, but there was no demonstration that they were related
to the tree, e.g. exposure of roots at foundation. He did observe a lifted yard path. The City
Arborist would have given consideration to the draw of the chimney, but nothing other than
personal opinion was presented showing a relationship between the functioning of the chimney
and the presence of the tree. Based on the inspection and lack of supporting documents, the City
Arborist denied the permit application. He believed that the tree could be managed by routine
pruning.
The denial was appealed to the Beautification Commission by Mr. Kouchek-Ali and Mr.
Tokarski. Both repeated their belief that the tree was in an inappropriate location, that it might
be affecting the draw of the chimney, and that interior cracks in the house may be related to its
presence. They also pointed to the damage to the yard path and the nuisance/damage caused by
dropping acorns. They both believed that their ability to enjoy their yard was diminished by the
tree. Neither expressed an interest in routinely maintaining the tree. Both expressed a
willingness to plant any replacement trees that the Commission might require. Invoices for
chimney maintenance by a chimney sweep were presented, but no third party expert opinions on
the condition of the chimney were presented.
The Commission denied the appeal, believing that the tree was a valuable asset and could be
managed with adequate maintenance. The letter of denial to the appellants also invited a
rehearing based upon the submittal of compelling expert opinion.

SUBJECT:
JANUARY REVIEW AND RENEWAL OF AMUSEMENT PERMITS ON SIX-MONTH
REVIEW
RECOMMENDATION:
Review existing amusement permits ready for January review and renew the following amusement permits for a
6-month period:
Alibi Club Fanny & Alexander
Dollarwise/Hobby Unlimited Matsusono
Fandorin Restaurant Towles Cafe
Cancel the following amusement permit as the establishment has closed:
Left at Albuquerque
DISCUSSION:
In June, the City Council renewed the permits for Alibi Club, Dollarwise, Fanny& Alexander, and Towle's
Cafe with some amendments. Fandorin and Matsusono applied for and received amusement permits in the past
six months. The Police Department has reviewed the performance at the 6 establishments, which is
summarized below.
Each of the permit holders was notified of the Council review.
REVIEW OF INDIVIDUAL PERMITS
The Alibi Club. It is recommended that the establishment continue on 6-month renewal. The Alibi Club
has calmed down as reported in the June review. However, they continue to have a marked number of calls.
There were 13 calls for service related to bad conduct by patrons, which is about twice the average for bars in
the City that have amusement permits.
Dollarwise/Hobby Unlimited. The establishment has had a permit for 5 video machines for two years. There
have been no reported problems with the video games, but there continues to be concern about items for sale in

the store. The store's owner has been very cooperative with the Police Department in removing questionable
items.
Fandorin Restaurant. The establishment has been open about 6 months. There have been no calls for service
directly related to the restaurant or entertainment.
Fanny & Alexander. The establishment has been open about 3 and a half years. The Department has
responded to 39 calls for service in the past 6 months, which is about the same as the previous six months.
The service calls are often the result of the establishment taking the necessary steps to control behavior by its
patrons, and the establishment continues to cooperate with the Department. However, it is also a popular
venue; with the closure of Left at Albuquerque, some problems may be alleviated.
One concern has been that a crowd remains in front of the establishment after it closes on weekends, which
sometimes leads to trouble. Staff requests that condition# 16 be amended to read=
16. The establishment will provide additional security outside the establishment between 10 p.m. and
2 a.m. (or until patrons disperse following closing, whichever is later) on Friday and Saturday
nights; this condition may be met by a paid detail officer
Left at Albuquerque. This establishment closed in the fall. The permit is nontransferable, and notice has
been given that the City intends to cancel it without prejudice to the owners or location.
Matsusono. There have been no calls for service or problems associated with this restaurant on Paloma
Avenue.
Towles Caf6. This amusement permit was approved about 8 months ago. The permissible hours have been
extended from noon to 11 p.m. There has been only one call for service.

FROM: PUBLIC WORKS (650-558-7230) BY
SUBJECT: ADOPT AN ORDINANCE FOR THE INSTALLATION OF STOP SIGNS ON BELLEVUE
AVENUE AT CITY HALL CIRCLE
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that City Council hold a public hearing to
A. Adopt proposed ordinance.
B. Direct City Clerk to publish a summary of the ordinance within 15 days of adoption.
BACKGROUND:City Hall Circle is composed of five approaches from three streets,including Bellevue Avenue,
Primrose Road and Douglas Avenue. Currently,eastbound and westbound Bellevue Avenue within the circle are
controlled by yield signs, while Bellevue Avenue traffic approaching the circle is controlled by stop signs. The
approach on Douglas Avenue also has a stop sign. Primrose Road is the only street that is not controlled and has
the through right-of-way.
DISCUSSION: Driver right-of-way confusion exists at this intersection,especially on Bellevue Avenue. Drivers
traveling on Bellevue Avenue from either the west(El Camino Real)or from the east(California Drive)approach
the circle and are required to stop. However,after making the stop and proceeding into the circle,they are required
only to yield to cross-traffic on Primrose Road and are not required to yield to on-coming traffic when making a
left turn. On-coming drivers unfamiliar with the intersection may not realize this, creating the potential for
accidents.
Traffic engineering convention prescribes that traffic controls be consistent and fairly intuitive for the average
driver. However, at this intersection opposing drivers may make the assumption that traffic controls in place for
them are similar to those for drivers traveling in the opposite direction. This is not the case here; and, as a result,
the condition is considered non-standard and potentially places drivers in a confusing situation.
At their October 9, 2003 meeting, the Traffic, Safety and Parking Commission concurred with a staff
recommendation to replace the two existing yield signs on Bellevue Avenue at City Hall Circle with two stop
signs.
FISCAL IMPACT: There are sufficient funds in the existing Streets Division operating budget to cover the cost
of labor and materials associated with installation.

4.2.3 STOP signs for east/westbound Bellevue Avenue at Primrose Road in City Hall Circle
Mr. Chou explained that this location has five separate approaches to City Hall Circle. The streets
are northbound and southbound Primrose Road, eastbound and westbound Bellevue Avenue and
westbound Douglas Avenue. Mr. Chou stated that this intersection currently has two YIELD signs
in the center portion of the circle, on east and west Bellevue Avenue. He said that this current
installation was causing driver confusion since the opposite approaches either had no STOP
controls, or did have STOP signs posted. He said that the current third option to yield was
creating a confusing situation at that intersection. Mr. Chou said that staff was recommending
replacement of the YIELD signs with STOP signs. A motion was made(Comms. Warden/Cohen)
to adopt staff's recommendation and recommend to Council the installation of stop signs at east-
and westbound Bellevue Avenue at City Hall Circle. Approved by the Commission 3-2 (Comms.
De Angelis and Mayer absent).
4.2.4 On-street parking study for 800 block of California Drive
See Item 5.3.
4.2.5 Red zone on California Drive at Palm Drive
Mr. Chou stated that the City received a resident's complaint about parked vehicles on California
Drive impairing site visibility when trying to turn left onto California Drive from Palm Drive. Mr.
Chou said that after careful evaluation,both Police and Engineering staff felt that eliminating some
of the parking might not help the sight-visibility situation. Mr Chou concluded that there was no
clear, single solution that did not also affect the parking situation along the 800 block of California
Drive. A motion was made (Comms. Warden/McIver) to deny this request and referred this issue
to the commission's subcommittee to be considered with Item 5.3. Approved by the Commission
3-2 (Comms. De Angelis and Mayer absent).
4.2.6 Height limit signs for 1200 block of Rollins Road
Mr. Chou stated that this request was initiated by City staff due to Code Enforcement problems
pertaining to tall commercial vehicles parking along this portion of Rollins Road.Mr.Chou said that
this request may be a moot issue and that the problem may have been eliminated because the
offending business has relocated outside the city. No action is necessary.
4.2.7 Handicap zone at 728 Linden Avenue
Mr. Chou stated that after several field investigations, staff determined that the resident has a fairly
long and wide driveway. He stated that since the driveway was long enough to accommodate several
vehicles in tandem and that the driveway and its surrounding walkways are flat and level, staff was
recommending denial of this request. Mr. Chou also stated that a policy statement would be drawn
up regarding handicap zone requests to aid City staff and the commission in future requests.Comm.
Cohen stated that each case is different and should be considered on an individual basis. Mr. Chou

SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing Sale of Bonds and Execution of Documents in Connection with Sale
RECOMMENDATION:
1. That the City Council Hold Public Hearing
2. That the City Council Approve Resolution
BACKGROUND: The proposed resolution authorizes the sale of up to $23 million in revenue bonds for the
Water and Sewer funds. This is the second of a planned series of revenue bond issues that finance the ten-year
capital improvements plan for the water and sewer systems. The City Council approved the ten-year plan in
February 2002. A copy of the charts showing the areas impacted by the water and sewer improvements over
the next ten years are attached.
This issue is larger because last year's borrowing(January 2003) was less than was originally envisioned. The
City opted to limit the 2003 issuance to $8.7 million given that low water consumption had negatively
impacted sewer and water revenues. Rather than borrowing funds to finance three years worth of projects, the
City borrowed funds to cover one-year of projects and subsequently implemented a water and sewer rate
structure to stabilize future revenue collections and repay the debt. The firm of Hilton, Farnkopf and Hobson
served as rate consultants for the water and sewer funds. They devised a strategy to ensure that future
fluctuations in water consumption would not impact revenues so markedly. Their recommendations were
implemented as part of the FY 2003-04 water and sewer rate setting process.
The proposed calendar for issue of these bonds calls for bids to be received on a competitive basis on January
27, with funding to occur by mid-February.
Copies of the Preliminary Official Statement, Trust Agreement, Installment Sale Agreements,Notice of
Intention to Sell Bonds and Notice of Sale are available for public inspection at the Office of the City Clerk.
Electronic copies are also available for e-mail to Council members as well as interested members of the public
by contacting the City Clerk.

SUBJECT:INTRODUCTION OF ORDINANCE TO CHANGE FEN E REQUIREMENTS TO ADD
ARBORS IN THE FRONT YARD AND TO CLARIFY VEHICLE PARKING
REQUIREMENTS AND TO MAKE SIGN PROVISIONS CONSISTENT.
Introduction:
City Council should set the public hearing and second reading of an ordinance to change the fence
requirements establishing standards for arbors in the front yard and to clarify vehicle parking requirements and
to make sign provisions consistent (Chapter 25 of the Municipal Code). Staff would recommend that this item
be set for public hearing at your meeting on January 20, 2004. Introduction requires the following council
actions:
A. Request City Clerk to read title of the proposed ordinance.
B. Waive further reading of the ordinance.
C. Introduce the proposed ordinance.
D. Direct the city clerk to publish a summary of the ordinance at least five days before proposed
adoption.
Planning Commission Action
At the Planning Commission meeting on December 8, 2003,the Commission held a public hearing on the
proposed changes to the fence requirements to add arbors in the front yard, and to clarify vehicle parking
requirements and to make sign provisions consistent. The commission voted 7-0 to recommend to the City
Council approval of the changes to the zoning regulations. In their comments the Commissioners noted that
these changes reduce the"red tape" for customers and the time that the commission would need to review
these types of projects.
Summary
Recently a number of home owners have requested a variance for fence height in the front setback in order to
install arbors at front yard fence openings. After public hearing the Commission granted each of these
requests. Because these entrance arbors planted with vines and flowering plants are consistent with the
neighborhood character in Burlingame, the Commission directed staff to see if there was some way in which
modest, decorative arbors could be allowed within the current fence regulations.
In the process of studying the "arbor" issue staff found two other issues in the zoning code which should be
corrected. The first is vestiges of signage regulations which remain in the zoning code (Chapter 25 of the
Municipal Code) which were apparently not transferred to the sign code (Chapter 22 of the Municipal Code)
INTRDD UCTION OF ORDINANCE TO CHANGE FENCE REQUIREMENTS TO ADD ARBORS IN THE FRONT YARD
AND TO CLARIFY VEHICLE PARKING REQUIREMENTS AND TO MAKE SIGN PROVISIONS CONSISTENT
January 12,2004
when it was created in 1978. Second is a clarification of the intention of the zoning code regarding where
parking for a new building or new use should be located e.g. on the site of the new structure or use.
Summary of Proposed Changes to the Zoning Code
■ Arbors
The proposed revisions to the code add a definition of arbor to Chapter 25. This definition clarifies the
distinction between an "arbor" and a"trellis". A trellis is a roofed structure made with separated members and
supported by posts and open on all sides. An arbor is a free standing structure which is open to the passage of
light and air on all sides. An arbor is also distinguished as being built as an open lattice to support plant
material. The footprint of an arbor which would be permitted without a variance is substantially smaller
(32 SF)than the footprint of a trellis (up to 100 SF). The suggested code provisions allow in the front setback
arbors with a 32 SF footprint and height of 9 feet or less without Planning Commission review.
■ Removal of References to Sign Regulation
Three references to signage remained in the zoning code. Two were in the single family zoning regulations.
One reference was to real estate signs and the second referred to church bulletin boards. The third reference
to signs was in the chapter of the zoning code which includes regulations for automobile parking lots, sales
lots and service stations. Sign regulations addressing all of these activities are currently included in Chapter
22 of the Municipal Code, Signage. Having regulations for signage in two places is both confusing and can
lead to inconsistent code administration.
■ Location of Required Parking
Chapter 70 of the Zoning regulations addresses parking requirements for all uses in the zoning code.
CS 25.70.010 establishes the requirement that parking be provided based on the standards in Chapter 70
whenever a new building is built, enlarged or increased in capacity (use intensified). The provisions of this
section are written to imply that the parking should be provided on the same site as the structure. In fact this
code section has been interpreted that parking be on the same site the requirement was added to the zoning
code (e.g. about 1941). However, the code section does not state explicitly that the required parking be
provided on the same site as the building. The proposed change to this section is to make it explicit that the
parking for a new structure, enlarged building or intensification of use in a building be provided on the SAME
site.

Reference staff report December 8, 2003, with attachments. CP Monroe presented the report, reviewed
criteria and staff comments. Commissioner noted that on page 2 of the staff report there is a definition for
"arbor", think it would be good to also have a definition for "trellis" as a comparison; CP noted that the
definitions section of the zoning code currently defines "trellis", will be sure both are called to the City
Council's attention.
Chair Bojues opened the public hearing. Commission commended staff for preparing these changes so
quickly,reduces the red tape for customers and also reduces Commission's time for review of these types of
projects. There were no further comments and the public hearing was closed.
C. Keighran moved to recommend that the proposed changes to the zoning ordinance be approved by the
City Council. The motion was seconded by C. Visitca.

Commissioners noted that this request was a substantial reduction in the number of employees working at this
suite. They noted that this item could be brought back on the consent calendar for action when all the
information requested has been provided and reviewed by Planning Staff. This item concluded at 7:35 p.m.
3. REVIEW OF PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE REGARDING FENCES,
' TO ESTABLISH STANDARDS FOR ARBORS IN THE FRONT YARD AND A CLEAN UP OF
SIGNAGE AND PARKING REGULATIONS. PROJECT PLANNER:MEG MONROE
CP Monroe reviewed the staff report noting the proposed changes to the fence regulations for arbors,the
clean up for signs and the clarification to the parking regulations. Planning Commissioners noted the
following:
• Should arbors on properties in the hillside area be required to get Hillside Area Construction Permits?
In discussion it was noted that as proposed these arbors are small,open structures,probably do not
have the same visual impact as a larger,roofed trellis structure. Also it might be confusing to require
a permit review in some areas of the city and not in others.
• How will the ordinance address protecting sight lines at corners? The sight line requirements for
public safety in the Municipal Code over ride the zoning requirements,so this will not be an issue.
Applicants may apply for a variance,but must meet the public safety standard first.
• Three feet seems very shallow as a maximum depth for an arbor,should be changed to 4 feet,the
maximum footprint should be increased correspondingly to 32 SF.
• If language is clarified for all parking to be required on the site where the structure/use is,can the
commission require applicant's to provide off site parking?Yes,the commission would need to grant
a variance with the off-site location where the parking is to be provided linked by deed restriction to
the property where the use requiring the parking is to be located.
There were no further questions and the amendment to the zoning code was set for public hearing. Given
noticing requirements this item was set for the December 8,2003,agenda for action. This item concluded at
7:35 p.m.

Proposed Changes to the Zoning Ordinance Regarding
Fences to Establish Standards for Arbors in the Front Yard and a Clean Up of Signage
and Parking Regulations
Meeting date: December 8, 2003
Planning Commission Action:
Hold a public hearing and take action. Action is a recommendation to City Council.
Request:
Amend the zoning regulations to allow the following:
(1) 32 SF arbors at a maximum height of 9 feet in the front setback in the R-1 zone;
(2) Remove signage regulations covered in the sign code from the R-1 zone; and
(3) Clarify the location of required parking in the zoning code parking regulations (Ch 25.70).
Planning Commission Study Meeting November 12, 2003:
At the study meeting the commissioners asked staff to address four questions regarding the proposed
changes to the zoning regulations. Questions and responses follow:
➢ Should arbors on properties in the hillside area be required to get Hillside Area Construction
Permits?
In discussion commissioners noted that these proposed structures will be small(32 SFor less) open
structures. If enclosed at all it will be with vegetation which blends into the scenery in the hillside
area and does not have enough mass to obstruct a view. In addition it might be confusing to
require a permit for arbor structures in some parts of the city (the hillside areas) and not in others.
Based on this the determination was not to require hillside area construction permits for arbor
structures..
➢ How will the ordinance address protecting sight lines at corners?
Sight line requirements are determined by the Public Works Department and are based on public
safety. Any arbor at or near a corner would be required to be documented by the Public Works
Department that, if built as proposed, it will not block the open views at any near by intersection.
➢ Three feet seems very shallow as a maximum depth for an arbor, should be changed to 4 feet, and
the maximum footprint increased to 32 SF to correspond.
This change has been noted in the annotated draft of the ordinance attached to the staff report and
Proposed Changes to the Zoning Ordinance Regarding Fences to Establish Standard for Arbors in the Front Yard and a
Clean Up of Signage and Parking Regulations December 8,2003
in the draft proposed for Commission recommendation to City Council.See attachments.
➢ If the language is clarified for all parking to be required on the site where the structure/use is,can
the Commission require applicant's to provide off-site parking?
Yes. There would be no change to the present practice which is to grant the property where the
parking should be located a variance based on the mitigation that the required number of spaces
would be provided on another property in the same ownership as the one where the structure or use
is located. Legal documents would be required and recorded with the deeds of both properties
tying the two parcels together permanently(or for as long as the structure or use exists on one of
them). The intent is obvious,the parcel where the parking is cannot support the one where the use
is if it is developed with a structure or use. The exception would be if a use were added and the
parking for the first parcel and that parcel were both provided to code requirements.In the latter
case the variance for the first parcel's use would probably have to be reviewed by the Commission.
Summary:
Recently a number of home owners have requested a variance for fence height in the front setback in order
to install arbors at front yard fence openings. After public hearing the Commission granted each of these
requests. Because these entrance arbors planted with vines and flowering plants are consistent with the
neighborhood character in Burlingame,the Commission directed staffto see ifthere was some way in which
modest,decorative arbors could be allowed within the current fence regulations.
In the process of studying the"arbor"issue stafffound two other issues in the zoning code which should be
corrected. The first is vestiges of signage regulations which remain in the zoning code(Chapter 25 ofthe
Municipal Code)which were apparently not transferred to the sign code(Chapter 22 of the Municipal
Code)when it was created in 1978. Second is a clarification ofthe intention ofthe zoning code regarding
where parking for a new building or new use should be located e.g.on the site ofthe new structure or use.
Summary of Proposed Changes to the Zoning Code
• Arbors
The proposed revisions to the code add a definition of arbor to Chapter 25. This definition clarifies the
distinction between an"arbor"and a"trellis". An arbor is a free standing structure which is open to the
passage of light and air on all sides.The footprint of an arbor permitted without a variance is substantially
smaller (32 SF)than the footprint of a trellis(up to 100 SF). The suggested code provisions allow in the
front setback arbors with a 32 SF footprint and height of 9 feet or less without Planning Commission
review.
• Removal of References to Sign Regulation
Three references to signage remained in the zoning code. Two were in the single family zoning regulations.
One reference was to real estate signs and the second referred to church bulletin boards. The third
reference to signs was in the chapter ofthe zoning code which includes regulations for automobile parking
lots,sales lots and service stations. Sign regulations addressing all ofthese activities are currently included
2
Proposed Changes to the Zoning Ordnance Regarding Fences to Establish Standard forArbors in the Front Yard and a
Clean Up ofSignage and Parking Regulations December 8,2003
in Chapter 22 of the Municipal Code, Signage. Having regulations for signage in two places is both
confusing and can lead to inconsistent code administration.
• Location of Required Parking
Chapter 70 of the Zoning regulations addresses parking requirements for all uses in the zoning code.
CS 25.70.0 10 establishes the requirement that parking be provided based on the standards in Chapter 70
whenever a new building is built, enlarged or increased in capacity(use intensified). The provisions of this
section are written to imply that the parking should be provided on the same site as the structure. In fact
this code section has been interpreted that parking be on the same site the requirement was added to the
zoning code (e.g. about 1941). However, the code section does not state explicitly that the required
parking be provided on the same site as the building. The proposed change to this section is to make it
explicit that the parking for a new structure, enlarged building or intensification of use in a building be
provided on the SAME site.

It recently came to the attention of the Planning Commission that the city's fence regulations do not
include provisions for entry arbors in the front yard. Commission directed staff to look at how this gap
might be addressed.
In working with the zoning code to address the fence issue two other items came to light which staff
would also like to correct. One is that some vestige references to signage remain in the R-1 and other
district regulations. These apparently were missed in 1978 when the city created Chapter 22, the sign
code. The second correction is to clearly state the location requirements for parking. The annotations
below address these issues.
Regulations to allow arbors in the front yard in the R-1 Zone
In order to add a provision allowing arbors in the front yard a definition for arbor must be added to
the code. This definition must distinguish an "arbor"from a "trellis".
c
Section 25.08.657 currently defines trellis as follows:
25.08.657 Trellis.
"Trellis" means a structure with a roof made of repetitive members open to the sky and supported by
posts, open on all sides.
A new section 25.08.012 is added as follows:
25.08.012 Arbor.
"Arbor" means a free-standing structure that is substantially open to the passage of light and air on the
roof and all sides, and serves to roof a gate, driveway, or walkway. "Substantially open" as used in
this subsection means that the sides and roof of the arbor are at least sixty percent(601/6)open around
any given point across each side and the roof
Annotation:
The distinguishing feature of an arbor which makes it different from a trellis is that an arbor
has no roof and is open to light and air on all sides. This distinction is important since it is not
the objective of the ordinance to allow covered walkways to extend from the front door to the
front property line of single family houses.
Zoning Code Amendments Annotations. Amendment to Fence Requirements for Arbors, Removal of References,to
Signage in Zoning Code, and Clarification of Location of Parking October 30,2003
Change to the R-1 lot coverage regulations, exempting arbors within certain dimensions from lot
coverage:
25.28.065(a) is amended to read:
(a) Arbors where the maximum roof area as measured exterior edge to exterior edge cumulative on a
property does not exceed twenty four (24) square feet and the maximum height, as measured from
adjacent grade does not exceed nine (9)feet. Trellises where the maximum roof area as measured
exterior edge to exterior edge cumulative on a property does not exceed one hundred (100) square feet
and the maximum height, as measured from adjacent grade does not exceed nine and one-half(9.5)
feet.
Annotation:
This section exempts arbors (as defined above) from being counted as lot coverage so long
as they do not exceed 24 square feet and are not taller than 9 feet. It should be noted that
trellises which are less than 100 square feet and do not exceed 9.5 feet in height are
currently excluded from being counted in lot coverage.
Fence Regulations, arbors in front setback
Section 25.78.020 is amended to read as follows.-
25.78.020
ollows:25.78.020 Height of fences in R districts.
1- (a) In any R district no fence or hedge which exceeds five feet in height, measured from the
average of the ground level at both sides of the fence, is permitted in that part of the lot which is the
front setback. However, one arbor that is no taller than nine (9)feet overall when measured from
adjacent grade, and no wider than eight (8)feet, and no deeper than three (3)feet may be placed in the
front setback.
(b) In any R district fences seven (7) feet in height shall be permitted at side and rear
property lines, provided the last foot in height is of an open design freely allowing light and air to pass
through; all other fences in these locations shall not exceed six (6) feet in height.
Annotation:
This section makes it clear that while the maximum fence height in the front setback is 5 feet,
a property owner may install ONE arbor which has a maximum height of 9 feet, and a foot
print of 8'x3' within the front setback as a matter of right e.g. does not require a variance.
The numbering within this code section is also corrected.
Removal of References to Signs in the Zoning Code
Section 25.28.020 is amended to read as follows:
The following uses are permitted in the R-1 districts:

and upon showing that the development and maintenance of structures,fences,walls and screening,
drainage,landscaping,signs,lighting spaces for storage of waste products,appurtenant equipment,
vending machines and off-street parking,serve the interest of the business community and the health,
safety,peace,comfort and general welfare of the public;
Annotation:
Before the city had adopted the sign ordinance(Chapter 22 of the Municipal Code)in 1978
sign regulation was incorporated into the zoning code. With the adoption of the Sign Code it
was the intention to remove all the sign regulation from the zoning code.Unfortunately these
references were missed. It is confusing to have signage regulated in two places in the
Municipal Code. It leads to administrative and regulatory errors. The numbering within this
code section is also corrected.
Clarify Location of Required Parking
25.70.010 Automobile Vehicle parking spaces to be provided.
1-(a) Parking required. At the time of erection of any building or structure,or at the time any
building or structure is enlarged or increased in capacity,there shall be provided off-street parking
spaces with adequate and proper provision for ingress and egress by standard size automobiles.
(b) Parking with remodel or reconstruction_ When any building is remodeled,
reconstructed or changed in use by the addition of dwelling units,gross floor area,seating capacity,
change in type of use or intensified use,such additional garage or parking facilities as may be required
must be provided.
3- (c) Minimum requirements. The regulations which follow are the minimum requirements
unless specific requirements are made for a particular use in a district. Additional spaces may be
provided. Unless otherwise expressly permitted by a section of this chapter,parking required by this

chapter is to be provided on the same lot as the use for which the parking is required
Annotation:
It is implied in sections (a) and (b) of CS 25.70.010 that the required parking provided for a
building or use will be provided on the site on which the building or use is located. That is the
way that the code has always been administered. However, it is not clearly stated that the
requirement is that the parking be located on the same lot. This addition is to make it
indisputably clear that required parking shall be located on the same site as the building or
use it serves.

FROM: Larry E. Anderson, City Attorney
SUBJECT:
INTRODUCE ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 25.76 AND ADDING CHAPTER 10.58
TO CLARIFY REGULATIONS REGARDING ADULT-ORIENTED BUSINESSES
RECOMMENDATION:
Introduce ordinance that would clarify and strengthen the City's regulations regarding adult-oriented businesses
by:
A. Requesting the City Clerk to read the title of the proposed ordinance.
B. Waiving further reading of the ordinance.
C. Introducing the proposed ordinance and directing publication of a summary at least 5 days before
its proposed adoption.
DISCUSSION:
In 1990, the City adopted adult entertainment regulations in Chapter 25.76 to allow adult entertainment as a
conditional use in the C-4 Zone, subject to certain limits on how close the businesses might be to each other and
to churches, schools, and parks.
Since that time, Federal and State courts have struggled to define what regulations that government can place on
adult-oriented businesses. After a great deal of litigation, the limits seem fairly well-defined in a broad sense:
— Each city has to allow adult entertainment businesses as a matter of right in a reasonable number of
locations in the city.
— Cities can impose content-neutral limits on how and when the businesses operate, so long as they go
are reasonably needed to limit the activity for an important government purpose; these are the secondary effects
that adult entertainment, such as depressed property values and criminal activity.
— Cities can establish reasonable proximity limits from churches and locations where minors often go.
— Cities cannot vest wide discretion in their officials to decide whether to allow a particular adult
entertainment use; instead, approval or denial must be based on narrow, objective, and definite standards.
— Permit applications must be reviewed and decided in an expeditious manner.
A key element to the adoption of regulations is the experience of other cities with adult entertainment, and the
Police Department has reviewed extensive documentation regarding that issue. The documentation must also be
reviewed by the Council before the public hearing on the ordinance.

Re: Introduce Ordinance Amending Chapter 25.76 and Adding Chapter 10.58 to Clarify Regulations
Regarding Adult-oriented Businesses
December 30, 2003
Page 2
The proposed ordinance revises the current City provisions to meet these requirements. It is generally consistent
with those of other cities in the County. The ordinance converts adult-oriented businesses from a conditional
use (subject to broad discretion by the Planning Commission)to a permitted use in the C-4 Zone. However, for
the first time, applicants for such a business would be subject to close scrutiny under Chapter 10.58, and the
proximity limitations of being 1,000 feet from another adult-oriented business, a church, a school, or a City
athletic facility would remain. The existing ordinance includes parks in the proximity limits, but because much
of the Bayfront has been developed as a park, this limit would probably not withstand a court challenge so it has
been limited to City athletic fields.

8 A. In adopting this ordinance, the City Council takes legislative notice of the existence and
9 content of the following studies concerning the adverse secondary side effects of Adult-Oriented
10 Businesses in the following cities:Garden Grove,California(1991);Tucson,Arizona(1990);Seattle,
11 Washington (1989); Austin, Texas(1986); Oklahoma City, Oklahoma(1986); Indianapolis, Indiana
12 (1984); Houston, Texas (1983);Beaumont,Texas(1982);Minneapolis,Minnesota(1980);Phoenix,
13 Arizona(1979);Whittier,California(1978);Amarillo,Texas(1977);Cleveland,Ohio(1977);and Los
14 Angeles, California (1977). Prior to the adoption of this Ordinance, the City Council and City staff
15 reviewed detailed studies prepared by other jurisdictions regarding the detrimental social and economic
16 effects on persons and properties immediately surrounding established Adult-Oriented Businesses.
17 These studies included those prepared by the cities of Austin,Texas;Biloxi,Mississippi;Indianapolis,
18 Indiana;Garden Grove,California;Los Angeles,California; and Phoenix,Arizona.The City Council
19 finds that these studies are relevant to the problems addressed by the City in enacting this ordinance
20 to regulate the adverse secondary side effects of Adult-Oriented Businesses, and more specifically
21 finds that these studies provide convincing evidence that:
22 1. Adult-Oriented Businesses are linked to increases in the crime rates in those
23 areas in which they are located and in surrounding areas.
24 2. Both the proximity of Adult-Oriented Businesses to sensitive land uses and the
25 concentration of Adult-Oriented Businesses tend to result in the blighting and deterioration of
26 the areas in which they are located.
27 3. The proximity and concentration of Adult-Oriented Businesses adjacent to
28 residential, recreational, religious, educational and other Adult-Oriented Business uses can
1
I cause families, residences, and other businesses to move elsewhere.
2 4. There is substantial evidence that an increase in crime tends to accompany,
3 concentrate around,and be aggravated by Adult-Oriented Businesses,including but not limited
4 to an increase in the crimes of narcotics distribution and use, prostitution, pandering, and
5 violence against persons and property. The studies from other cities establish convincing
6 evidence that Adult-Oriented Businesses which are not regulated as to permissible locations
7 often have a deleterious effect on nearby businesses and residential areas,causing,among other
8 adverse secondary effects, an increase in crime and a decrease in property values.
9 B. The City Council believes the following statements are true, in part based upon its
10 understanding of the experiences of cities such as Austin, Texas; Biloxi, Mississippi; Garden Grove,
11 California; Indianapolis, Indiana; Los Angeles, California; and Phoenix, Arizona:
12 1. Adult-Oriented Businesses should not be located in areas of the City which are
13 in the vicinity of religious institutions, city facilities, and schools;
14 2. The image of the City of Burlingame as a pleasant and attractive place to reside
15 will be adversely affected by the presence of Adult-Oriented Businesses in close proximity to
16 religious institutions, city athletic fields and facilities, and schools;
17 3. The location of Adult-Oriented Businesses on the main commercial
18 thoroughfares of the City would cause a loss of sensitivity to the adverse effect of pornography
19 upon children,established family relations,respect for marital relationship and for the sanctity
20 of marriage relations of others,and the concept of non-aggressive consensual sexual relations,
21 as well as increased vacancy rates in those commercial districts,thereby reducing the City's tax
22 base;
23 4. The City Council believes that allowing Adult-Oriented Businesses in the manner
24 provided herein is appropriate because such areas include ample accessible real estate that is
25 easily accessible by freeways, highways and roads;
26 5. Without the adoption of this Ordinance, Adult-Oriented Businesses might be
27 allowed to locate anywhere within the City by right,requiring no permit other than a business
28 license to operate, thereby subjecting the people of the City to the unmitigated secondary
2
I effects shown to accompany unregulated and under-regulated Adult-Oriented Businesses;
2 6. A reasonable regulation of the location of Adult-Oriented Businesses protects the
3 image of the community and its property values and protects its residents from the adverse
4 secondary effects of such Adult-Oriented Businesses, while providing those who desire to
5 patronize Adult-Oriented Businesses an opportunity to do so in appropriate areas within the
6 City;
7 7. Regulations for Adult-Oriented Businesses should be developed to prevent
8 deterioration and/or degradation of the vitality of the community before the problem exists,
9 rather than waiting for a problem to be created;
10 8. Adult-Oriented Businesses should be regulated by zoning which separates such
11 land uses from other incompatible uses.
12 C. Based on the foregoing,the City Council of the City of Burlingame finds and determines
13 that special regulation of Adult-Oriented Businesses is necessary to ensure that their adverse secondary
14 side effects will not contribute to an increase in crime rates or to the blighting or deterioration of the
15 areas in which they are located or surrounding areas. The need for such special regulations is based
16 upon the recognition that Adult-Oriented Businesses have serious objectionable operational
17 characteristics, particularly when several of them are concentrated under certain circumstances or
18 located in direct proximity to sensitive uses such as residences,schools,and churches,thereby having
19 a deleterious effect upon the adjacent areas. It is the purpose and intent of these special regulations to
20 prevent the concentration of Adult-Oriented Businesses and thereby prevent such adverse secondary
21 side effects.
22 D. The locational requirements established by this ordinance do not unreasonably restrict the
23 establishment or operation of constitutionally protected Adult-Oriented Businesses in the City,and a
24 sufficient reasonable number of appropriate locations for Adult-Oriented Businesses are provided by
25 this ordinance. The City Council takes note of the proliferation of adult material on the Internet and
26 its availability as an alternative avenue of communication. The City Council also considers and relies
27 on published decisions examining the proliferation of communications on the Internet. Reno v.
28 American Civil Liberties Union, 521 U.S. 844, 117 S. CT. 2329, 138 L. Ed.2d 874 (1997);
3
I Anheuser-Busch v. Schmoke, 101 F.3d 325,329 (4'h Cir. 1996), cert. denied 520 U.S. 1204 (1997);
2 U.S. v.Hockings, 129 F.3d 1069(9th Cir. 1997);see also U.S. v. Thomas,74 F. 3d 701 (6th Cir. 1996),
3 cert. denied 519 U.S. 820.The emergence of the Internet brings with it a virtually unlimited additional
4 source of Adult-Oriented sexual materials available to interested persons in every community with a
5 mere keystroke. An adult business no longer has to be "actually" physically located in a city to be
6 available in the community.The City Council also recognizes and relies on information regarding the
7 number of adult businesses in the following nearby municipalities: near Redwood City (2 adult
8 entertainment stores) San Mateo(2 adult entertainment stores). In addition,there are numerous adult
9 businesses in the City and County of San Francisco, approximately 15 miles away.
10 E. In developing this ordinance,the City Council has been mindful of legal principles relating
11 to regulation of Adult-Oriented Businesses and does not intend to suppress or infringe upon any
12 expressive activities protected by the First Amendments of the United States and California
13 Constitutions,but instead desires to enact reasonable time,place,and manner regulations that address
14 the adverse secondary effects of Adult-Oriented Businesses.The City Council has considered decisions
15 of the United States Supreme Court regarding local regulation of Adult-Oriented Businesses and takes
16 legislative notice of the factual findings and legal conclusions in the numerous judicial decisions on
17 the regulation of Adult-Oriented Businesses, including but not limited to: Young v. American Mini
18 Theaters,Inc.,427 U.S. 50(1976)(Red. denied 429 U.S. 873);Renton v. Playtime Theaters,475 U.S.
19 41 (1986)(Red.denied 475 U.S. 1132);FW/PBS,Inc. v.Dallas,493 U.S.215(1990);Barnes v.Glenn
20 Theater, 501 U.S. 560 (1991); and City of Erie v. Pop's A.M. DBA "Kandyland"(2000) U.S., 120
21 S.Ct. 1382; United States Court of Appeals 9th Circuit decisions, including but not limited to:
22 Topanga Press, et al. v. City of Los Angeles,989 F.2d 1524(1993);several California cases including
23 but not limited to: City of National City v. Wiener, 3 CalAth 832 (1993); People v. Superior Court
24 (Lucero)49 Ca1.3d 14(1989);and City of Vallejo v. Adult Books, et al., 167 Cal.App.3d 1169(1985);
25 and other federal cases including Lakeland Lounge v. City of Jacksonville (5th Cir. 1992) 973 F.2d
26 1255, Hang On, Inc. v. Arlington (5th Cir. 1995) 65 F.3d 1248, Mitchell v. Commission on Adult
27 Entertainment(3rd Cir. 1993) 10 F.3d 123,International Eateries v.Broward County(11 th Cir. 199 1)
28 941 F.2d 1157, and Star Satellite v. City of Biloxi (5th Cir. 1986) 779 F.2d 1074.
4
I F. The City Council finds that locational criteria alone do not adequately protect the health,
2 safety,and general welfare of the citizens of the City,and thus certain requirements with respect to the
3 ownership and operation of Adult-Oriented Businesses are in the public interest. In addition to the
4 findings and studies conducted in other cities regarding increases in crime rates,decreases in property
5 values and the blighting of areas in which such businesses are located, the City Council also takes
6 legislative notice of the facts recited in the case of Kev, Inc. v. Kitsap County, 793 F.2d 1053 (1986),
7 regarding how live adult entertainment results in secondary effects such as prostitution,drug dealing,
8 and other law enforcement problems.
9 G. The aforementioned studies show that sex-related offenses are included within the
10 category of secondary effects caused by unregulated or under-regulated Adult-Oriented Businesses.
11 H. The City Council believes that persons who have been convicted of sex-related offenses
12 have shown a propensity to commit such offenses and should not be permitted to operate
13 Adult-Oriented Businesses for five (5) years after such conviction. This is because the sexually
14 oriented nature of the business creates an increased opportunity for the commission of sex-related
15 offenses by persons who have exhibited a propensity for the commission of such offenses.
16 I. The City Council believes as true the documents and judicial decisions in the public record
17 established and submitted in conjunction with this Ordinance which demonstrate that various
18 operational practices of Adult-Oriented Businesses increase criminal activity,including but not limited
19 to sexually related criminal activity, and increase the likelihood of the transmission of diseases
20 including but not limited to sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea,syphilis,herpes,acquired
21 immune deficiency syndrome ("AIDS") and hepatitis-B.
22 J. The City Council believes the following statements are true, in part, based upon its
23 understanding of the documents and judicial decisions in the public record established and submitted
24 with this Ordinance:
25 1. Evidence indicates that dancers, models, entertainers, and other persons who
26 publicly perform Specified Sexual Activities or publicly display Specified Anatomical Parts
27 (as these terms are defined in the Ordinance) in Adult-Oriented Businesses (collectively
28 referred to as "Performers") have been found to engage in sexual activities with patrons of
5
I Adult-Oriented Businesses on the sites of the Adult-Oriented Businesses;
2 2. Evidence has demonstrated that Performers employed by Adult-Oriented
3 Businesses have been found to offer and provide private shows to patrons,who,for a price,are
4 permitted to observe and participate with the Performers in live sex shows;
5 3. Evidence indicates that Performers at Adult-Oriented Businesses have been
6 found to engage in acts of prostitution with patrons of the establishments;
7 4. Evidence indicates that fully enclosed booths,individual viewing areas,and other
8 small rooms whose interior cannot be seen from public areas of the establishment("Individual
9 Viewing Areas")regularly have been found to be used as a location for engaging in unlawful
10 sexual activity;
11 5. Individual Viewing Areas have been found to contain "glory holes" in the walls
12 joining abutting Individual Viewing Areas, which are used by customers to facilitate sexual
13 activity between the occupants of the abutting Individual Viewing Areas;
14 6. Individual Viewing Areas have been found to be unsanitary due to the existence
15 of semen, saliva, and blood on the walls and floors of the Individual Viewing Areas;
16 7. Medical science has found that the AIDS and hepatitis-B viruses are carried in the
17 semen of infected males and have a potential life span of 2 to 3 hours outside the human body;
18 8. The existence of semen on the walls and floors of the Individual Viewing Areas
19 can facilitate the transmission of the AIDS and hepatitis-B viruses;
20 9. The practice of individuals having anonymous and/or unprotected sexual relations
21 in Individual Viewing Areas can facilitate the transmission of the AIDS and hepatitis-B viruses
22 as well as other sexually transmitted diseases;
23 10.Poorly lit or unlit areas of Adult-Oriented Businesses provide a location for people
24 to engage in illegal sexual activities;
25 11. Police agencies have determined that some Adult-Oriented Businesses and the
26 operators thereof have been found to be directly engaged in(as well as aid and abet)criminal
27 and illegal sexual activities. Such individuals also have been known to use aliases;
28 12.Many jurisdictions have found that Adult-Oriented Businesses generate excessive
6
I noise and disorderly conduct,particularly at the closing time of the Adult-Oriented Business,
2 which creates an adverse noise public safety impact on surrounding businesses and
3 communities;
4 13. Once approved,Adult-Oriented Businesses have altered the interior floor plans of
5 the business establishment in order to create areas that are not openly visible in order to
6 provide for areas where their performers and patrons can more readily engage in prohibited
7 physical sexual activity. In order to prevent this problem, it is necessary to prevent
8 Adult-Oriented Businesses from making alterations to their floor plans without the prior
9 approval of the City; and
10 14. Adult-Oriented Businesses have been found to regularly attempt to violate the
11 operational requirements imposed upon them for the purposes of reducing the pernicious
12 secondary effects such businesses cause. For this reason, frequent, unannounced inspections
13 of such businesses are necessary to ensure compliance with these operational requirements.
14 K. Zoning,licensing and other police power regulations are legitimate,reasonable means of
15 accountability to protect the quality of life in the community of Burlingame by attempting to assure
16 that all operators of Adult-Oriented Businesses comply with reasonable regulations and are located
17 in places that minimize the adverse secondary effects which naturally accompany the operation of such
18 businesses.
19 L. The City Council is concerned about the possible harmful effects on children and minors
20 exposed to the effects of such Adult-Oriented Businesses and the deterioration of respect for family
21 values, and the need and desire of children and minors to stay away from and avoid such businesses,
22 which can cause children to be fearful and cautious when walking through or visiting the immediate
23 neighborhood of such businesses; and the City Council desires to minimize and control the adverse
24 secondary side effects associated with the operation of Adult-Oriented Businesses and thereby protect
25 the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of and visitors to the City; protect the citizens from
26 increased crime;preserve the quality of life;preserve property values and the character of surrounding
27 neighborhoods and businesses;deter the spread of urban blight and protect against the threat to health
28 from the spread of communicable and sexually transmitted diseases.
7
I M. It is not the intent of the City Council in enacting this ordinance, or any provision thereof,
2 to condone or legitimize the distribution of obscene material,and the City notes that state law prohibits
3 the distribution of some obscene materials and expects and encourages law enforcement officials to
4 enforce state obscenity statutes against such illegal activities in the City.
5 N. Nothing in this ordinance is intended to authorize, legalize,or permit the establishment,
6 operation, or maintenance of any business,building, or use which violates any City ordinance or any
7 statute of the State of California regarding public nuisances, unlawful or indecent exposure, sexual
8 conduct, lewdness, obscene or harmful matter or the exhibition or public display thereof.
9 O. In prohibiting public nudity in Adult-Oriented Businesses, the City Council does not
10 intend to proscribe the communication of erotic messages or any other communicative element or
11 activity, but rather only to prohibit public nudity due to the secondary impacts associated with such
12 public nudity.
13 P. The City Council also finds,as a wholly independent basis,that it has a substantial public
14 interest in preserving societal order and morality, and that such interest is furthered by a prohibition
15 on public nudity.
16 Q. While the City Council desires to protect the rights conferred by the United States
17 Constitution to Adult-Oriented Businesses, it does so in a manner that ensures the continued and
18 orderly development of property within the City and diminishes,to the greatest extent feasible,those
19 undesirable secondary effects which the aforementioned studies have shown to be associated with the
20 development and operation of Adult-Oriented Businesses.
21 R. In enacting a nudity limitation, the City declares that the limitation is a regulatory
22 licensing provision and not a criminal offense. The City has not provided a criminal penalty for a
23 violation of the nudity limitation.The City adopts such a limitation only as a condition of issuance and
24 maintenance of an Adult-Oriented Business permit issued pursuant to its Municipal Code.
25 S. The City Council finds that preventing the exchange of money between performers and
26 patrons also reduces the likelihood of drug and sex transactions occurring in Adult-Oriented
27 Businesses.
28 T. Requiring separations between Performers and patrons reduces the likelihood that such
8
I persons will negotiate narcotics sales and/or transact sexual favors within the Adult-Oriented Business.
2 U. The City Council finds that this Ordinance is a comprehensive content neutral zoning
3 ordinance regulating the time,place and manner of operation of Adult-Oriented Businesses pursuant
4 to Government Code Section 65850 sub. (g)(1) and Business and Professions Code Section 16000.
5 V. Enclosed or concealed booths and dimly-lit areas within Adult-Oriented Businesses
6 greatly increase the potential for misuse of the premises, including unlawful conduct of a type which
7 facilitates transmission of disease.Requirements that all indoor areas be open to view by management
8 at all times and that adequate lighting be provided are necessary in order to reduce the opportunity for,
9 and therefore the incidence of, illegal conduct within Adult-Oriented
10 Businesses, and to facilitate the inspection of the interior of the premises thereof by law enforcement
11 personnel.
12 W. The proposed ordinance provisions are generally consistent with limitations in other
13 communities in the County of San Mateo and therefore would not constitute an undue burden in
14 compliance or understanding.
15 X. The ordinance allows adult-oriented businesses that meet the requirements of this
16 ordinance to locate in the C-4 zone as a permitted use, while at the current time, the zoning allows
17 such uses in the C-4 zone as a conditional use,which may no longer be upheld under State or Federal
18 caselaw.
19 Y. The City does not have any record of any existing adult-oriented businesses in the City
20 of Burlingame as of the date of adoption of this ordinance and therefore,this ordinance does not create
21 any non-conforming problems for any existing businesses or persons.
22 Z. This ordinance is intended to supersede but not nullify Chapters of the Municipal Code
23 as a comprehensive redrafting of the City's regulations regarding Adult-oriented Businesses.

6
7 25.76.010 Purpose.
8 It is the intent of this chapter to prevent community-wide adverse economic impacts,increased
9 crime,decreased property values,and the deterioration of neighborhoods which can be brought about
10 by the concentration of adult-oriented businesses in close proximity to each other or proximity to other
11 incompatible uses such as schools for minors,churches,city athletic facilities,and residentially zoned
12 districts or uses. The city council finds that it has been demonstrated in various communities that the
13 concentration of adult-oriented businesses causes an increase in the number of transients in the area,
14 and an increase in crime,and in addition to the effects described above can cause other businesses and
15 residents to move elsewhere. It is, therefore, the purpose of this chapter to establish reasonable and
16 uniform regulations to prevent the concentration of adult-oriented businesses or their close proximity
17 to incompatible uses,while permitting the location of adult-oriented Businesses in certain areas. Over
18 the history of the city, the zoning regulations have allowed adult-oriented businesses under certain
19 conditions and in certain areas,and to the knowledge of the city,there are currently no existing adult-
20 oriented businesses in the city.

5 If any section, subsection, subdivision,paragraph, sentence, clause, or phrase in this chapter
6 or any part thereof is for any reason held to be unconstitutional or invalid or ineffective by any court
7 of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the remaining
8 portions of this chapter or any part thereof.The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed
9 each section,subsection,subdivision,paragraph,sentence,clause,or phrase thereof irrespective of the
10 fact that any one(1)or more subsections, subdivisions,paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or phrases be
11 declared unconstitutional, invalid, or ineffective.

I Section 12. California Environmental Quality Act finding.
2 The City Council finds that this ordinance is enacted in order to mitigate the threat posed to
3 the public peace,health,or safety by adult-oriented businesses. In this regard,the findings set forth in
4 Section 1 of this ordinance are incorporated herein by reference.This ordinance either provides for the
5 amendment of existing regulations applicable to adult-oriented businesses or, for the first time,
6 provides for zoning regulations which are specifically applicable to adult-oriented business uses. Such
7 uses are already allowed under the City's existing zoning regulations. Therefore, it can be seen with
8 certainty that there is no possibility that this ordinance would create any significant adverse
9 environmental impact under the California Environmental Quality Act, and therefore the adoption of
10 this ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) of the CEQA guidelines.
11
12 Section 13. Effective date.
13 This ordinance shall go into effect and be in full force and operation thirty(30) days after its

from the City of Burlingame. This protection consisted of a pump station for fire flows and a water main system from
the City's Hillside Reservoir. The City also benefitted from the additional water lines as they provided a valuable
alternate way to transfer water between hillside neighborhoods.As a result,the City and Sisters of Mercy entered into
cost sharing agreements in 1985 and 1991 for the improvements.Although the construction was undertaken soon after,
easement documents reflecting the actual water line locations were never completed. The purpose of this resolution is
to accept the two easements which will allow the City to access and maintain the improvements.
EXHIBITS: Resolution; Grant Deeds
BUDGET IMPACT: Funds for maintaining the water lines within the easements are included in the Water
Division operating budget.

SU RJECT: RESOLUTION AWARDING CONTRACT TO COMMUNITY PLAYGROUNDS, INC. TO
PROVIDE PLAYGROUND RENOVATIONS TO THE CHILDREN'S PLAYGROUND AT
WASHINGTON PARK - CITY PROJECT NO 80970
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that Council approve the attached resolution awarding the subject work to Community
Playgrounds, Inc. of Novato, California in the amount of $ 148,946.00.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Burlingame has been engaged in a program to upgrade its children' s playgrounds to bring
them into compliance with current regulations concerning accessibility and product safety. The
Washington Park Playground is the facility currently designated for upgrade.
In January 2003 a Playground Committee composed of Parks & Recreation Commissioners, Staff, and
a neighborhood resident was formed to create requirements for replacement play equipment. It was
stipulated that the current hardscape would be retained. The Committee arrived at consensus on desirable
playground elements, and a Request for Proposal was drafted based upon the Committee' s work. Three
proposals were received. Representatives from the respective companies presented their proposals for
equipment and configuration to the Committee, which selected the proposal submitted by Ross Recreation.
A Purchase Order was issued to Ross Recreation for the equipment. Direct purchase from the vendor
reduces total project costs.
A landscape architect was then secured to draft construction documents. The construction will involve
drainage improvements, raising the play equipment area to ground level to meet accessibility requirements,
installation of the play equipment, and installation of accessible resilient surfacing. The construction
documents were completed and put out to bid. The architect's estimate was $ 181 ,000 for the construction
costs. Four bids were received. The low bid was $148,946 from Community Playgrounds of Novato.
Community Playgrounds has worked extensively in the Bay Area. Ross Recreation, the equipment vendor,
has successfully completed several projects in partnership with Community Playgrounds. A check of
several supplied references resulted in glowing recommendations for the firm. Bids received were as
follows:
1 . Community Playgrounds, Inc. $1489946
2. Scapes, Inc. 1517400
3 . Bellicitti & Pellicciotti 170,690
4. J.W. Riley & Son 197,000
It is anticipated that the project will be completed by early March 2004 in time for heavy spring use.
BUDGET IMPACT:
This project has been approved for$92,618.00 in state bond funding under Proposition 12. The balance
of the project will be funded from the general fund. There are adequate funds to complete the project. The
project was authorized as follows:
Project Authorization:
1. Professional Services 16,000
2. Play Equipment 74,000
3. Construction 180,000
TOTAL AUTHORIZATION 270,000
Project Funding:
1. Proposition 12 bond funding 92,618
2. General Fund 177,312
TOTAL FUNDING 270,000
Successful completion of the project by Community Playgrounds, Inc. will result in the project being
completed significantly under budget, reducing the impact on the General Fund. It is anticipated that the
project will be completed by early March in time for heavy spring use.

SUBJECT: Amendments to the Cable System Franchise Agreement with RCN Telecom Services Inc.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve the proposed amendments to the Cable System Franchise Agreement Between
the City of Burlingame and RCN Telecom Services, Inc.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Burlingame approved the current cable television franchise agreement in August 2000. The term
of the franchise is eleven (11) years. The franchise is currently in its third year.
The franchise currently requires RCN to complete its build-out in six years. RCN was obligated to complete
35 nodes by the end of the second year. Each node services approximately 143 homes. To date, RCN has
substantially complied with its second year construction requirements by activating 32 nodes within the
Burlingame service area.
In July, RCN informed the city that due to the economic downturn and the unavailability of funding through
the capital markets, RCN did not have the funds to continue the system build-out. Consequently they would
be unable to fulfill their third year construction obligation and would be subject to liquated damages for
material breach of the franchise. RCN requested a delay in the construction obligations outlined in the
franchise. The City believes that a three-year suspension of the construction schedule will provide the
company an opportunity to regain its financial footing. Continuing the RCN franchise is in the City's interest
because it provides its citizens with an alternative, competing cable system. RCN is committed and continues
to provide telecom services in Burlingame.
Over the last five months, City staff has met with RCN representatives to negotiate amendments to the
franchise. The proposed amendments to the franchise are outlined in Attachment A.

Attachment A.
AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE CABLE SYSTEM FRANCHISE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
CITY OF BURLINGAME AND RCN TELECOM SERVICES, INC.
This Amendment No. 1 is entered into this day of ,by and between the City of
Burlingame ("City") and RCN Telecom Services, Inc. ("RCN") as an amendment to the Franchise Agreement
between the City and RCN Telecom Services of California, Inc. dated August 7, 2000 ("Franchise
Agreement"):
1. The Franchise Agreement shall be amended to reflect the name change from RCN Telecom Services of
California, Inc. to RCN Telecom Services, Inc.
2. The City of Burlingame shall suspend RCN's node activation obligations as outlined in Exhibit B of
the Franchise Agreement (dated August 7, 2000) for a period of three (3) years from the effective date
of this amendment.
3. The parties agree that the actual number of nodes that have been activated as of the date of this
agreement shall be 32 nodes. This number shall serve as the starting point for counting and crediting
future nodes to be activated.
4. At the end of the three (3) year suspension period, RCN shall resume construction obligations of the
system. However, nothing in this agreement shall prevent the Parties from meeting and negotiating in
good faith either(i) to modify the construction obligations or(ii) to further suspend RCN's
construction obligations under the Franchise Agreement. In any event RCN is required to complete
the activation and construction of the entire franchise area by August 7, 2011.
5. If RCN resumes construction and activates an additional 30 nodes by December 30, 2008, then the
term of the Franchise Agreement and the requirement to complete construction and activation of the
entire franchise area shall each be extended by four(4) years. Under this scenario, the franchise term
would be fifteen years. The activation of 30 additional nodes would serve to make RCN's

failure to activate any nodes as outlined in the Franchise Agreement, including any and all rights to
assess liquidated damages or other penalties for RCN's failure to activate such nodes. However, the
City of Burlingame retains any and all rights to assess liquidated damages and other penalties for
material violations of the Franchise Agreement not pertaining to the construction and activation of
nodes.

RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached agreement with California Artists
to conduct a portion of Art in the Park.
BACKGROUND:
The City, in an effort to maintain the level of recreational opportunities to the community with
reduced Recreation Division staffing levels, sent out a Request for Proposals for the operation of
Art in the Park. Three proposals were received and each proposer interviewed by Division staff.
California Artists has proposed providing all services related to artists. Examples of these duties
includes solicitation of artists,jurying of work, allocation of booth space, marking spaces,
issuing parking permits and the items to be handled during the event. This proposal would save
staff 300 to 400 hours of time annually, while realizing at least the same revenue as in previous
years.
As spelled out in the attached agreement, California Artists would pay the City $5,000 for
marketing the event, plus a fee per booth space. Space has been guaranteed for up to ten
Burlingame resident artists at $175 each, with the remaining booths being charged$200 each.
Under this agreement, the City will still be in charge of the majority of the event, such as
marketing, food and information booths, entertainment, security and basic logistics. The City is
currently in negotiation with the Burlingame Rotary Club on a number of these items and may
soon have an agreement before Council.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Under this agreement,the City will realize at least as much revenue as in past years and may
receive up to $10,000 in additional profit, depending upon the number of booth spaces that can
be located onto the site for the event.

1. Branch Closure - A public reception held on Sunday,
September 28th marked the official closing of the Branch.

October 16th and 17f. On Saturday, October 25th a sale of
furniture and other items, that will not be used in the
renovated library, will be available for public purchase.
2. Collection Development Policy Review - The
management staff is looking towards a policy change in how
materials for the collection are purchased, marketed to the
patrons and displayed. The purpose of this change is to
increase the circulation. For example, more copies of a
popular title would be purchased in order to decrease the
size of the hold list. On the other hand fewer titles would be
purchased. Trustee Rossi suggested increasing the rental
collection; Trustee Herman recommended making this
collection a high profile item.
B. Foundation Report - Carol Rossi

was D.L. Falk who has previously worked with our architect Hal
Brandes on the Village Park project. The second lowest bidder, Kin
Wo Construction, Inc is protesting the D.L. Falk bid on the basis
that D. L. Falk made errors in its bid submission. The bid from D.
L. Falk will be presented to the City Council on Monday October

protest of Kin Wo Construction, Inc.

October 20,2003
IX. New Business
A. Easton Request from Duncan Trust - The City Librarian
requested that the Trustees approve an additional $27,000 from
the Duncan Trust through the Peninsula Community Foundation.
This amount would cover a shortfall in the funds allocated for the
project caused by an accounting error in the Marshall Trust of
$100,000 by the City Finance Department.
1. Duncan Trust Balance - The total request from the
Duncan Trust would be $177,000; 150,000 of which the Trustees
had previously approved at their July 15, 2003 meeting. If the
$27,000 request is approved, the remaining balance for grants is
approximately $150,000. Interest will accrue on the principal of
$518,000.
2. Trustee Action - Trustee Rossi suggested that the
$27,000 shortfall be taken from the Trustees' Account rather than
the Duncan Trust. The Trustees unanimously passed a motion to
fund the Easton shortfall of$27,000 from the Library Trustees'
Account. M/S/C Herman/Carr

NEW BUSINESS
Appeal of Denial of Request for Removal of a Private Cedar Tree na 1360 Drake Avenue - Chairperson
Hesselgren noted that the appellants were not present. Commissioner Ellis commented that while she was
inspecting the site, the appellant told her that he would not be present because he would be meeting with an
electrician at the same time of the Commission meeting.
Superintendent Richmond noted that the new commissioners would be abstaining from voting on this item. He
then briefly explained to the new commissioners the issues, elements and the processes involved when appeals
for tree removals are brought before the Commission.
Arborist Porter stated that the application for removal of the Cedar tree was denied because it is a beautiful,
healthy,mature tree and the reasons cited by the applicant did not meet the criteria for approval. He added that
there was no evidence that the mold and the cracks in the house are being caused by the tree. Based on his
inspection he concluded that, with regular pruning of the tree and cleaning of the roof and gutters, much of the
applicant's concerns could be mitigated. Superintendent Richmond confirmed and Arborist Porter agreed that
there were no exposed roots nor additional reports submitted that indicated the tree was the cause of the damage
to the house.
1
Appeal of Denial of Request for Removal of a Private Cedar Tree(cry 1360 Drake Avenue- (Cont'd.) -
Chairperson Hesselgren noted that mold grows with moisture and water and the moisture would be coming from
leaks, not from the shade of the tree. Commissioner Ellis stated that she observed mold in the entry,but not in
the closet which is in the same room,and that,the appellant told her that the tar and gravel roof had been repaired
with asphalt. She also stated that she did not notice significant damage to the driveway or the house.
Commissioner Grandcolas reported that he observed that the tree had not been trimmed in many years and some
branches were close to the house. He asked Arborist Porter if the appellant had stated reasons why he would not
consider pruning the tree as opposed to removal? Arborist Porter responded that the appellant did not address
that issue.
The Commission discussed possible root pruning. Arborist Porter commented that roots do not seek out a
foundation and generally run along the top 18"of soil. He added any damage that might be caused by the roots
from this tree could be easily pruned without causing any harm to the tree.
Commissioner Webb asked how much bigger could the tree be expected to grow? Arborist Porter responded that
the trunk would not grow any larger;but,the canopy would increase in size. He added,that reducing the crown
by one-third and then routinely trimming the tree every fours years would be an adequate maintenance schedule
for this tree.
Following the discussion,Commissioner Ellis moved that the denial for the removal of the Cedar tree at 1360
Drake Avenue be upheld based on the findings of the City Arborist;seconded(Webb). Motion carried
5 - 0 -2 (Abstentions/Grandcolas and McQuaide).
Cancellation of January 1, 2004 Commission Meeting - Because there were no pending appeals, the
Commission unanimously agreed to cancel the January 1, 2004 meeting due to the holiday.
Chairperson Hesselgren asked the new commissioners to introduce themselves.
Commissioner Grandcolas introduced himself and stated that he is from Indiana and has lived in the City of
Burlingame for 14 years. He added that it was the trees that drew him to this community,he loves Burlingame,
and wants to contribute to Burlingame.
Commissioner McQuaide introduced herself and stated that she has been a resident of Burlingame for 35 years.
She believes that her degree in horticulture and owning her own business can be helpful to the Commission.
Chairperson Hesselgren excused herself and Vice-Chair Carney chaired the remainder of the meeting.
REPORTS -Superintendent Richmond -
1. Selection period for late Winter planting has closed.
2. Tree Crew will begin Sycamore pruning is this year's designated section very soon. The section is West
of Vancouver to Alvarado between Easton and Adeline;and Edgehill to Mills between California Drive
and ECR.
3. Discussions between the City and SFPUC continue regarding the proposed removal of the Eucalyptus
grove west of Skyline at Margarita. There is a current temporary delay. Arborist Porter added that the
SFPUC will come back in the Spring or Summer with a report;however,the removal plan will begin in
October and replanting will occur. SFPUC has made it clear that they will not do any"phasing"of the
project.
4. Welcomed the new Commissioners,Leslie McQuaide and Mark Grandcolas,and stated the Commission
now has a full roster for the first time since the summer. An item to review the ordinances that affect
the work of the Commission, general practices and policies, and formulation of motions and the
sequences of hearings will be placed on a future agenda.

REPORTS - (Cont'd.) -
Commissioner Grandcolas -Asked the status of the removal of the Eucalyptus trees on El Camino? Arborist
Porter stated that 12 to 13 Eucalyptus trees have been approved for removal due to decay. He has reviewed all
the test results and all look accurate. Director Schwartz stated CalTrans has agreed to plant replacement trees
for all removals and that a group consisting of CalTrans representatives, City representatives, and Community
representatives are looking at alternative species for tree replacement on El Camino. Superintendent Richmond
stated that Jennifer Pfaff from the Historical Society has interest in replacing the Eucalyptus trees with Elms,
since John McLaren's original intent was to line the El Camino with Elms. (The fast growing Eucalyptus trees
were only planted to protect the young Elms as they grew). Commissioner Ellis asked if the Beautification
Commission could also be part of the process? Superintendent Richmond stated he would communicate the
Commission's interest to Jennifer and invite her to speak to the Commission.
Commissioner Lauder - Commissioner Lauder reported that she attended the Council meeting regarding the
SFPUC tree removals West of Skyline and commented that she was impressed by how many people came to
speak to the issue. She noted that the SFPUC planned to use growth regulators following the tree removals but
because there is some concern that the creeks could be affected, so revisions to that plan may be reconsidered.
Commissioner Webb - Commissioner Webb stated that residents in his neighborhood received a flyer that
McKinley School would be raising the cyclone fences and asked which department would handle that issue.
Superintendent Richmond stated that perhaps the Planning Department or the Building Department would have
information regarding that project.
Commissioner Webb asked if former Commissioner McGowan left any information regarding the Shoreline
discussions? Superintendent Richmond commented that Commissioner McGowan frequently reported on the
status ofthose meetings and encouraged Commissioner Webb to review past Beautification Commission minutes.
He added that he would try to find out the current status of any upcoming meetings regarding the Shoreline
Master Plan.
Commissioner Webb asked about the status of the Northern end of Burlingame and what kind of a community
is going to be built? Superintendent Richmond said former Commissioner Locke had been attending those
meetings and often gave updates to the Commission. Commissioner Lauder stated the last meeting that she
attended,the discussion evolved around putting buildings or apartments near the Plaza at either corner,but there
were many objections to that idea. Commissioner Lauder was unsure when the next meeting would be,but would
inform Commissioner Webb of the neat meeting if he wished to attend.
Commissioner Carney-Commissioner Carney welcomed the new Commissioners and reported that she noticed
a baby swing in a City tree on Plymouth Way, but she was not sure if it had been permanently attached.
Superintendent Richmond noted that the ordinance specifically states that nothing is to be attached to the City
trees. Commissioner Carney will contact the Parks office with the address so a warning notice can be sent to the
property owner.
Commissioner Grandcolas-Commissioner Grandcolas asked how one would find out about a Master Plan for
El Camino,that with sidewalk replacements and other work being planned on El Camino, undergrounding the
power lines should be part ofthe overall plan. Superintendent Richmond responded that there have been ongoing
discussions between CalTrans,the City Attorney's Office,the City's Engineering&Public Works Departments,
and the City's Arborist with regard to many different elements and issues on El Camino.
There being no further business,the meeting was adjourned be Vice-Chair Carney at 6:45 p.m.

VIII. DESIGN REVIEW STUDY ITEMS
2. 1605 SANCHEZ AVENUE,ZONED R-1 -APPLICATION FOR DESIGN REVIEW, SIDE SETBACK
VARIANCE AND SPECIAL PERMITS FOR HEIGHT AND DECLINING HEIGHT ENVELOPE FOR A
NEW TWO-STORY SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING (GAIRD SCHLESINGER, APPLICANT AND
PROPERTY OWNER; WILLIAMSON CHAVEZ DESIGN, DESIGNER) (71 NOTICED) PROJECT
PLANNER: CATHERINE BARBER
Plr Hurin briefly presented the project description. There were no questions of staff.
Chair Bc jues opened the public comment. Gaird Schlesigner,applicant and property owner,was present to
answer questions. The Planning Commission asked about the proposed plate heights for the new house.
Applicant noted that a 10-foot plate height is proposed on the first floor and a 9-foot plate height is proposed
on the second floor. Commission asked the applicant to explain the hardship for the side setback variance.
Applicant noted that there are no exceptional circumstances on the property for this request, originally
thought it was a special permit. Commission noted that panels are proposed on the front elevation below the
porch and asked why is the first floor so high above adjacent grade? Applicant noted that the intent was not
to build a slab-on-grade foundation, would like to have steps up to the porch. Commission asked if the
applicant considered adding dormers on the rear elevation to match the front elevation,would help to add
more light into the rooms at the rear of the house. Applicant noted that the considered adding shed dormers
at the rear of the house, but it would have caused the house to exceed the maximum allowable floor area
ratio,the roof configuration would have to be adjusted and significant roof design changes would have to be
made to the project to add dormers at the rear. Commission noted that the house could be made smaller to
accommodate dormers at the rear. Commission asked if the applicant considered lowering the plate heights" -1
Applicant noted that it was considered,but decided to propose the current plate heights in order to preserve
the high roofline consistent with the Craftsman design, lowering the plate heights will flatten the roofline.
Continued Commission discussion: Commission noted that this project is off to a great start,nice Craftsman
style, a few changes would make this project fit better into the neighborhood. The proposed roof pitch is
over 7:12,roof pitch could be flattened to 5:12 or 6:12 and still be consistent with the Craftsman style; see
no justification for the side setback variance,applicant needs to address. Commission noted a concern with
the sides of the house, sides are very flat with the exception of the bay window, often see cantilevered bay
windows in Craftsman style, would add interest in the design. Commission asked if the applicant was
proposing to do anything to the existing garage; no. Commission suggested that the applicant consider
adding some exterior details to the garage to reflect the proposed Craftsman design of the house,do not want
to see a contrast in the design. Commission asked what the panels below the porch would be made of?
Applicant noted that the panels would be painted wood. Commission asked why shingles are proposed on
the front elevation only. Applicant noted that shingles are proposed on the front elevation because it would
be too expensive to have shingles on all sides of the house,the front elevation is most visible from the street,
and because the visible side of the house is screened by trees and shrubs. Commission noted that breaking
up the mass along the wall on the driveway side would help,leave 12 feet between the house and property
along the driveway side,could shift house and add articulation on the other side. Commission noted that the
landscape plan is too plain,suggest increasing the number of trees and adding larger scale shrubs,tall shrubs
should be continued out to the street: suggested Maytenus tree at rear is very root invasive,should consider
using another tree; landscape plan should add more interest and should compliment the architecture of the
house, landscape plan should be more creative to enhance the front elevation.

City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
Lori Zimmerman, 1614 Forest View Avenue,Kim Utrata, 1609 Sanchez Avenue,expressed the following
concerns:live behind the project site,concerned about potential loss of privacy and impacts from demolition
and construction noise, house next door was just remodeled and had to live with 6 to 8 months of
construction; concerned about noise during construction, City of Burlingame has a very liberal noise
ordinance which allows construction seven days a week,can the City limit the construction hours so that this
does not happen again. CA Anderson noted that there have been conditions placed on new houses to not
allow construction on weekends; would appreciate limiting the hours of this construction; thought plans
noted existing garage to be removed;no,existing garage will remain;have windows on right side of house,
concerned that the value of her house will drop if side setback variance is granted,moving the house forward
on the lot will reduce her view of open space on this property. Commission noted that the existing trees will
provide a natural screen between the houses and that there will be a driveway along this side providing an
additional 10 to 12 feet of separation;neighbor noted that there is no screening provided at the lower half of
the trees,will still see through tree trunks from the first floor level. There were no other comments from the
floor and the public hearing was closed.
The Planning Commission had the following comments and concerns with the proposal:
• Concerned about 10 foot plate height on the first floor and 9 foot plate height on the second floor,
strongly suggest reducing the plate heights,there are many Craftsman style houses with lower plate
heights and flatter roof pitches, lower plate heights will reduce the visual mass;
• Bottom plate height could be higher than top plate height,incorporate sloped ceiling on second floor
to achieve lower second floor plate height;
• See no justification for the side setback variance and special permits,variance should be eliminated,
this is a new house on a flat lot,like the bay window for articulation, suggest bring in the side walls
and adding cantilevered bay windows along the sides for articulation;
• Incorporate shingle siding on all four sides of the house,can use a combination of shingle and wood
siding,perhaps shingle below the first floor line;
• Proposed roof pitch is over 7:12,roof pitch could be flattened to 5:12 or 6:12 and still be consistent
with the Craftsman style, would help to reduce the overall height of the house;
• Applicant could offer to limit the construction hours to address neighbors concern, staff should
include limitation of construction hours as a condition of approval for this project;
• Materials should be consistent throughout the exterior of the house;
• Should consider cantilevering pieces, such as bay windows, to add articulation along the sides;
• Add details to existing detached garage so that it is consistent with the proposed Craftsman style
house, needs to blend in with the proposed architecture;
• Commission noted that the landscape plan is too plain, suggest increasing the number of trees and
adding larger scale shrubs, tall shrubs should be continued out to the street; landscape plan should
add more interest and should compliment the architecture of the house,landscaping should be more
creative to enhance the front elevation;
• Proposed Maytenus tree at rear is very root invasive,should consider replacing with another species
tree; and
• Cassette tapes of the comments and suggestions are available to the applicant, want to make sure
direction and suggestions are clear.

Reference staff report December 8, 2003, with attachments. CP Monroe presented the report, reviewed
criteria and staff comments. Commissioner noted that on page 2 of the staff report there is a definition for
"arbor", think it would be good to also have a definition for "trellis" as a comparison; CP noted that the

Council's attention.
Chair Boju6s opened the public hearing. Commission commended staff for preparing these changes so

THE RESPONSE TO COMMENTS DOCUMENT FOR THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
PREPARED FOR THE SAFEWAY PROJECT (RICHARD S. ZLATUNICH, APPLICANT AND
SAFEWAY, INC., PROPERTY OWNER) (135 NOTICED) PROJECT PLANNER: MAUREEN
BROOKS
Reference staff report December 12,2003 with attachments. CP Monroe presented the report noting that the
City Council's direction was for the Planning Commission to review Supplement 2 to the Response to
Comments document and make individual comments on whether the responses adequately address the
5
City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
environmental issues raised during the public hearing process. No vote should be taken because the
commission has already acted on the project and Final Environmental Impact Report. Commissioners asked
if the consultant who prepared the report was present to answer questions,staff noted that the city was at the
end of the money to prepare the environmental document, if the commissioners would like to pose any
questions regarding the issues addressed,staff would get the answers to them before this item goes forward
to the City Council; when can we ask such questions, after the public hearing; clarify that the City Council
asked the commission to comment on the adequacy of this report, CA commented that the Council
understands the Planning Commission's position on the project,would like comments on Supplement 2.
Chair Bojues opened the public hearing noting that the commission would take testimony only on
Supplement 2 to the Response to Comments document for the Safeway EIR. The Chair asked for a show of
hands for the number of people who were therefor Safeway and wished to speak. Looking at the number he
noted that each speaker would have five minutes for their comments.
The following members of the public spoke: Dan Anderson, 1728 Vernon Way;Tom Payne,728 Concord
Way;Carolyn Root, 1407 Montero;Rich Grogan, 1450 Columbus;Joseph Silber,Farringdon Lane; Jennifer
Pfaff, 615 Bayswater; Charles Voltz,725 Vernon;John Root 1407 Montero; Jill Lauder,449 Bloomfield;
Steven Hamilton, 105 Crescent. The comments noted the following issues: project does not address
pedestrian flow to and from the site, entrance on El Camino makes it auto oriented, people have to walk
around to get from downtown to front of the store, the project is not integrated into the downtown area,
access to the site is limited to three locations,shoppers and pedestrians have to cross truck traffic at front of
building and on Fox Plaza Lane.Problem with traffic on Howard causing back up of cars and trucks on site
in front of the store making pedestrians weave through queued traffic to get to store; not integrated with
downtown,pedestrians from Burlingame Avenue need to cross trucks on Fox Plaza Lane to get to store,or
Primrose must cross a wider Fox Plaza Lane made even wider because of the angle caused by the off set for
the diagonal parking added on Primrose. Report did not respond to the aesthetic criticism,reviewer noted
aesthetics are subjective and therefore would not respond,Safeway will build and move on and residents will
have to live with results, residents want something that will contribute to their quality of life; propose a
"Disney-esque"arch way at El Camino and Howard,makes no contribution to the gateway to the city,the
proposed building is a negative, visually exposed to a sea of parking, see the backs of the buildings on
Burlingame Avenue now screened from view(a benefit now), and development is out of scale with all the
surrounding buildings; we have a chance to restore the proper scale on this site,smaller facilities like on
Primrose. Chair Boju6s noted that everyone could take the opportunity to submit additional comments in
writing in the next couple of weeks if you feel that you need more than five minutes. Commission clarified
that the EIR was prepared by a third party hired by the city, they have no affiliation with the Safeway
corporation. CA confirmed this observation. Commissioner asked if the consulting firm was an extension
of city staff. CA noted that was the case.
Public Comments continue: concerned about Safeway regulating the hours of delivery themselves, should
add a condition limiting truck deliveries to the site to given times; thought the analysis was weak because
there was not enough time in the proposed hours of delivery to accommodate each of the trucks if they
stayed for the average stay of 23 minutes; seems clear that a larger Safeway will result in an increase in the
number of truck deliveries by the front door since the loading docks will not be available given the timing;
important for the city to establish procedures now especially for trucks with more than 2 axels,regulation
should have workable oversight and real penalties.Did not evaluate the traffic hazard created on Howard at
Primrose with the signal at the intersection;show traffic delayed longer with signal would result on back ui
6
City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
on Howard almost to El Camino, problem for north bound traffic conflict with those turning left into
Safeway,queue would block access and the same on south bound El Camino Real on to Howard;the queue
area is sufficiently short it will be blocked by one large truck. This issue was omitted from the report so
should reject the Supplement 2. Chair pointed out that the Commission was not going to vote on the report
this evening, only comment.
Public Comments continue: air quality analysis is based on a model with particulate data from the nearest
station which is in Redwood City, indicates no problem now but the Air Quality Board is going to change
the limit of maximum allowed particulates of this smaller size and then the existing Redwood City data
probably would be in violation;there is no data to confirm that the air quality at the Safeway site is similar
to that in Redwood City, important that this is a 24 hour store, the report focused on the K-line method
which in his opinion is too approximate an answer; diesel particulate has been recognized as a serious air
pollutant for the young and elderly,should do on-site monitoring to assess current state. Commission asked
where the monitors should be placed could they be off the site; does not matter, its not just the number or
size of the vehicles it's the maintenance of each vehicle,which relates directly to the amount of particulate
matter. Monitor could be placed on any second story that has access and available electricity;measurement
is not expensive for total suspended particulate (larger material), take to lab to analyze sample, in case of
smaller particles(ones of concern here)look at number per cubic foot of air. Commissioners asked if the air
samples taken any where in the area would be the same,does it make a difference if the engines are running
continuously,does it make a difference if the engines are large or small? Depends on profile,if the engine is
tuned property at idle there would be no visible smoke,at acceleration it would need a different adjustment
and there would be no problem; size of engine makes no difference it's the maintenance of the vehicle and
combustion chamber.
Public Comments continued: concerned about the relocation of Lot L,the response is that there would be a
net loss of 18 parking spaces within 100 feet of Fox Mall and a net gain of 22 parking spaces within 300 feet
which is an acceptable walking distance;feel that Safeway is hijacking Lot L,taking it over,the new public
lot is not proximate to existing businesses, why should Burlingame consider, should ask for money to
compensate the merchants and public;everyone uses the rear entrance of Fox Mall,if that were closed as the
property owner suggested he would do if the loading docks were adjacent to the back of the mall, the real
distance to parking would be 500 feet; people will have to walk the distance of two football fields; we
should be encouraging pedestrian access. There is still the failure to include the seasonal parking demand
analysis,it is key to establishing the cost of replacement parking and the impact of the project on the rest of
Burlingame; the city downtown parking study notes a 20% increase in short term parking demand in the
fourth quarter based on sales tax,they adjust the parking demand model accordingly,why does the EIR not
do the same? Three reason not do seasonal adjustment: grocery and drug do not have the same seasonal
variation; not use the peak of the peak demand for determining parking demand but average daily usage
between October 1 and January 1 (which does not address the peak between Thanksgiving and New Years
which is much higher 20 or 22 %); and most people go to the grocery store once a week and will just buy
more at holiday season. There was no study, analysis to document these conclusions. Can do seasonal
analysis with information readily available from Safeway based on one carper one transaction;no reason not
address, City Council needs to know facts to determine value of mitigation for the additional 75 parking
space deficit. Report all but dismisses the impact of the building mass, want more than "good enough";
Sequoia Station in Redwood City turned its back on downtown and are now learning from their mistake;
Safeway may leave if they do not get what they want,we need to be prepared for that event;item 8 finds no
safety issues regarding walking on Fox Plaza Lane,it will not be inviting for pedestrians;know quality of
7
City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
surroundings has an influence on whether people use access,equal to distance traveled;pedestrian quality is
inviting if it is safe, aesthetically pleasing,isolated from cars and trucks,the proposed Fox Plaza Lane will
have none of these qualities, in fact the project is a Costco pedestrian experience and the design is
superficial. There are three heritage trees on the site,they deserve to be preserved and protected. Report still
fails to address the parking impact in town;the current stores are about 48,000 SF(not including Safeway's
basement)the proposal is 67,000 SF, increase is 19,000 SF; currently there are 205 on-site parking spaces
for 48,000 SF, based on the EIR there will be 155 parking stalls for 67,000 SF , more store less parking;
comment is that would be all right if the city changed its policy requiring on site parking for employees and
they parking in other public parking; report does not address the true impact on parking. There were no
further comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner comments on the adequacy of Supplement#2: Staff noted that the City Council had asked
for the individual comments from the commissioners, one approach might be to particularly comment on
those responses to issues you individually raised.
C.Keele: Need to look at this report in the context of the EIR review process,the role of the commission is
to limit comments to the adequacy of the data and analysis in Supplement 2, are the issues addressed
adequately. Understand that the EIR consultant is a "de facto" arm of staff, it is incumbent to divest
comments from affinity with staff. Acknowledge that the EIR does not have to be perfect, not totally
comprehensive,just adequate with mitigation measures. The other side is are there data gaps,omissions that
render Supplement 2 inadequate. Regarding parking there is a problem with the analysis in Supplement 2,
no new data, no new analysis, no more comprehensive mitigations. Does note that parking deficit is
significant. If change parking then the mitigation measures are acceptable. Feel that the parking deficit is
not addressed adequately. The report is inadequate in taking into account the impact on the relocation o'
Lot L if the rear entrance to Fox Mall is closed. There is a data gap in the pedestrian safety issue, not
sufficient information on pedestrian safety flow, pedestrian safety patterns on site, not address clearly
whether an increase in volume on Fox Plaza Lane would not create a significant impact,not account for the
increase in vehicular traffic on Fox Plaza Lane. Think that seasonal demand variations in parking is a
condition which should have been addressed; did not analyze true parking problem in the fourth quarter.
Most troublesome inadequacy is data and analysis of air quality on site and nearby;not expensive to do an
air sample on site or nearby, should have done, not modeled. Given situation should have used emerging
standard as basis for analysis, Redwood City is not adequate data, Supplement 2 does not address the air
quality impact on the individual from increased truck traffic on the site or nearby. Staff asked if the parking
deficit was identified as a significant impact. Yes,because the consultant identified it,but no new data was
provided to change the point and no new mitigation was included to take to a level below significant.
C.Vistica noted: One point not addressed in the EIR or Supplement 2 is the qualitative issue of El Camino
and the trees, this is a strong image and community value,without adequate job of assessing the impact of
the project on that environment e.g.the proximity of the buildings,large trees,analysis of the impact on that
image from the south end,needed additional visual analysis so could measure;concerned that the seasonal
variation in parking was not addressed,throughout count street parking as part of the parking provided by
the project,if that is included it would change city policy; City Council should note the certification of this
EIR would limit possibilities to correct or use some options for revision of the project e.g.truck docks at the
same location, do not want to limit the applicant's ability to modify the project. Aesthetic quality may be
subjective but the EIR can provide analysis for Planning Commission can make their own analysis of the
information provided, not done.

City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
C. Osterling commented: public testimony enlightened me on what would happen with the signalization,
inadequate evaluation to address Primrose/Howard and traffic entering and exiting Safeway;not address how
closing the rear entrance at Fox Mall would affect pedestrian distances,how would this change the impacts
of the project and parking on Burlingame Avenue; effect on public access problem. Need to look at visual
impacts,number of trees in parking lot, scale of building, EIR does not address.
C. Keighran noted: aesthetics page 4 in Supplement 2 determine that significance of visual quality is
subjective,yes but can be based on qualitative research,need to focus on qualitative,look at Redwood City
and their Safeway with its back to the commercial street,what are the cumulative impacts. Lot L is a major
concern,concerned about the effect of the relocation on the convenience of parking for the community not
Safeway. Now Lot L is centrally located,walk to Burlingame Avenue,relocate and will lose proximity to
Burlingame Avenue; if the owner of Fox Mall closes off rear entrance the 300 foot distance away will
increase to 600 feet, what would the impact of that be, people would not use the new Lot L and it would
increase the parking problem on Burlingame Avenue. If Fox Mall's rear entrance was closed it would
increase pedestrian use on Fox Plaza Lane;the project will change the atmosphere on Fox Plaza Lane with
heavy truck traffic,the parking on the street, and parking parallel to the sidewalk and dumpsters all need to
be addressed. Need to incorporate deliveries,don't know the number of trucks on Fox Plaza Lane,but have
observed trucks backed up on Chapin parking in the middle of the street,need a delivery schedule strictly
enforced to keep Fox Plaza Lane and the project user friendly for pedestrians.Seasonal parking demand was
not included, it was discussed at the last public hearing, do not accept that the same number of trips year
around,would like to see the data to prove it wrong,if people stay longer grocery shopping that would affect
parking availability.
C. Auran commented: believe that the document is adequate, it addresses the issues raised regarding the
trucks on Howard and their affect on pedestrians; Safeway constitutes less than 50%of the deliveries, and
most are in the morning. Regarding the intersection of Howard and Primrose,now there is one in and one
out,with the project there will be a 40 foot wide street at Fox Plaza Lane and improvement to the in and out
movement as well as new access at El Camino Real. Regarding particulate matter and the Bay Area Air
Quality Management District,larger trucks do not mean an increase in pollution,this is global matter;truck
maintenance needs to be addressed region-wide not just with this project. Parking is a swap, people will
park and do more than one errand from Safeway stalls the same as they do from the public parking,
especially if there are entrances at the back of shop on Burlingame Avenue, so Safeway's parking will
support other businesses in the area. For quality of the walking environment Supplement 2 provides
objective data for common discussion. The report notes that parking is insufficient and the parking impact is
significant. Feel that on this basis the Supplement 2 report is adequate.
C.Brownrigg commented:unfortunate that the consultants did not take the Commission's comments more
to heart, had they done so they would have added mitigations to make the project more palatable
recognizing significant and unavoidable effects that were there in the judgment ofmany;because they found
the effects to be less than significant the applicant does not have to do anything to address the problems.
Commission's vote on the project had to do with the site and location of the Safeway project, wanted a
different location and smaller buildings. EIR is a sideshow in the overall review,not until the Council takes
a position on the project will we get anew project. Want all this time and effort spent on getting abetter
proj ect.

City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
Chair Bojues noted: agree with comments of Keele and Vistica,would add concern about the height of the
proposed building, feel Council would benefit from a scale model of the project so that they can see it in -�
three dimensions, if go forward would be a valuable tool.
Commissioners asked: when the comments from tonight are gathered what will the City Council do;it was
useful for the Commission to look at the EIR and project together. Staff responded, Council asked
commission input on Supplement 2 because wanted to have commission comments on the entire EIR
document in light of Commission rejection of the EIR,;originally staff brought both the EIR and project to
Commission together because they did not feel that the regular citizen could distinguish between the EIR and
the project.
Chair Bojues thanked the public for their attendance and participation.He noted that the comments of the
public and commission would be forwarded to the City Council;and closed the item. This item concluded
at 9:15 p.m.
6. REVIEW AND CONSIDER MODIFICATION TO OR SUSPENSION OF THE PROJECT AT 1537
DRAKE AVENUE,ZONED R-1 —(60 NOTICED)PROJECT PLANNER: MARGARET MONROE
C. Keighran recused herself because she lives within 500 feet of the subject property. She stepped down
from the dias and left the Council Chambers. Reference staff report December 8,2003,with attachments.
CP Monroe presented the report,reviewed criteria and staff comments. Forty-one conditions for Lot 9,forty
conditions for Lot 10,and forty conditions for Lot 11 were suggested for consideration. CA Anderson noted
that he could not represent the Planning Commission as legal counsel because he helped to develop the
conditions of approval for the project, he can arrange for legal counsel if the Commission feels that is -�
needed. Commissioner asked for clarification of what this project review is about and what are the
alternatives. CA explained that when the developer violated the conditions of approval,the City responded
by restructuring the conditions to make them less confusing by separating them out so that each lot will have
its own set of conditions, this made the conditions more specific by lot,that the conditions for each lot be
posted on a board at the site,require the developer to pay for a supervising certified arborist chosen by the
City to oversee the developers'arborist. The intent is to make sure everyone understands what the rules are.
CA noted that clarification is still needed on how the foundation pier holes will dug. Commission asked if
the conditional use permit can be revoked altogether. CA noted that under California state law,the Planning
Commission cannot revoke a permit which has already been granted unless it finds that the permit should not
have been granted in the first place; CA also reminded the Commission that the permits run with the
property regardless of who the applicant is; there was a misunderstanding of the finished floor elevation
relative to the adjacent grade,pier locations and finished floor elevation does not work under the conditions
imposed with the approved project. Commissioner asked if the City has had problems with this developer
following conditions of approval on other projects in the past? CP noted that the only project he had a
problem with in terms of compliance with City requirements in effect at the time of approval was one which
he inherited from another applicant. Commission asked if the developer is overstretched in complying with
all of the conditions of approval, does he have the time to devote make sure all contractors working on the
project follow the conditions of approval? CP noted that staff was not qualified to answer for the developer.
Cers. Bojues and Osterling noted for the record that the developer contacted them prior to the meeting to
discuss the project.
10
City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
Continued Commission questions: Commissioner asked if the excavated area was backfilled because he
could not clearly see the area on a site visit;yes,applicant backfilled area the day after it was excavated,area
is located to the left and rear of the Redwood trees. Commissioner noted that he recalled requiring a plan
showing the protective fencing and air spading around the Redwood trees, if the applicant complied with
these requirements we would not have this problem today, have not seen a plan for the protective fencing,
was air spading done? CP noted that a plan for the protective fencing was submitted by the applicant's
arborist, but that air spading was not done. CA noted that the developer never reached the point of root
investigation,the contractor jumped ahead and started excavating without the required root investigation.
Commission noted that the pictures show exposed roots extending beyond the protective fencing and asked
how far was the fence from the excavation? Plr Hurin noted that the excavation appeared to be
approximately two feet from the fencing at its closest point. Commission asked how deep was the
excavation and if staff had any pictures of the excavation? Plr indicated that the some excavated areas where
clearly more than 20 inches deep,Planning staff does not have pictures of the excavation but noted that the
applicant's arborist or the City Arborist may. Commission noted that the pictures submitted by a neighbor
clearly show two strata of soil, the lower strata being darker. Commission asked if the protective fencing
plan was reviewed by the City Arborist? Yes, the City Arborist reviewed and accepted the projective
fencing plan and visited the site to make sure it was installed correctly. Commissioner asked what the
reason was for revising condition#2 on Lot 9;wanted to make sure that when the three houses are separately
sold the house designs on the three lots are consistent in scale and mass. Why was condition#29 on Lots 9
and 11 deleted? Condition#29 addressed the installation of the driveway on Lot 10 only. CA noted that
condition#30b for Lots 9 and 10 regarding frequency of site inspection by a licensed arborist was revised so
that it provides the flexibility for the City to require how often the site should be inspected. Commission
asked why condition#31 a requires a certified arborist on-site during hand digging;this condition requires
that the developers'certified arborist be on site at all times to supervise the process and ensure the findings
�.. are incorporated;this condition was also revised to limit the hand digging for piers from a depth of 18 to 10
inches based on the developers' recommendation in the arborist report, if digging for the piers requires a
greater depth it will be reviewed by the Commission, foundation type may change after further root
investigation. Commission asked if there is a monetary fine associated with the stop work order;no,just
prohibits the developer from doing any work on all three lots. There were no further questions of staff.
Chair Bojues opened the public hearing. Mark Hudak, attorney representing Otto Miller, developer, and
James Chu, project designer, were available to answer questions. Mr. Hudak noted that the developer is
responsible for what happened since he is the"captain of the ship",did not intend or direct the excavation to
occur, fully understood all conditions of approval for the houses, installed the protective fencing prior to
demolition permit issuance,protective fencing was reviewed and approved by the City Arborist;demolition
permit was issued after demolition requirements were met;next phase was to prepare the site,contractor was
to fill in the empty swimming pool on Lot 11,was far enough away to not affect the Redwood trees;while
waiting for fill material contractor decided to begin the clean-up on Lot 9,was unaware that the developers'
arborist needed to be there during excavation, developer intended to start root investigation after
Thanksgiving. Mr. Hudak also noted that of all the houses this developer has built in Burlingame and
Hillsborough there have been no willful violations committed,unfortunately did not tell the contractor not to
work on Lot 9,developer posted a$118,000 deposit with the City for the Redwood trees,the last thing he
wants to do is damage the trees;certified arborist was not on the site at the time because excavation was not
to occur yet, certified arborist assessed the roots and recommended that the excavated area be backfilled,
contractor appeared to have over-compacted the backfill. The developer next met with City staff to discuss
how to proceed with the foundation type for the houses on Lots 9 and 10,do not want to redesign the houses
11
City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
now,need to conduct the air spading first to investigate the root system,will design foundation for houses
based on what is found in the field; feel that the additional layer of supervision by an independent arborist -�
and planner is an overreaction to the situation, but the developer is willing to cooperate if within reason;
appreciate the conditions of approval being separated for each lot,construction of Lots 9 and 10 will be out
of sequence with Lot 11, developer would like to complete construction on Lot 11 soon, offered revised
language for conditions#31 a and b and#27 in a memo provided to staff and Commission, do not want to
spend time discussing the depth of the pier holes tonight since more information will be available after root
investigation is completed by the certified arborist, then will know what type of foundation can be used.
Commission asked why the air excavation was not completed? Mr. Hudak noted that it was not due to a
misunderstanding of the condition of approval, it was due to poor communication with the contractor,
contractor should have only been filling in the pool on Lot 11. Commissioner noted that while at the site
noticed a tree stump at the front of Lot 10, was this tree ok to remove? Plr Hurin noted that the site plan
indicates two trees to be removed at the front of Lot 10. Commission noted that by looking at the
photographs 10 to 18 inches may not be deep enough to evaluate the roots for hand digging,may need to go
deeper; Mr. Hudak noted that it depends on the location on the lot, hand digging will be done where
practical,roots should be at surface. Commissioner noted that Redwood tree roots are shallow,it appears
that the roots have gone through sand and hit clay,need to explore the root depth,engineer needs to look at
root depth then determine what type of foundation can be used. Mr. Hudak noted that that the root
exploration will be done with the City Arborist on site, then can determine if a pier and grade beam
foundation is the appropriate type.
Janet Garcia, 1561 Drake Avenue, Rich Grogan, 1450 Columbus Avenue, Christ McCrum, 1540 Drake
Avenue,Mark and Ann Thomas, 1520 Drake Avenue,Dave Taylor, 1566 Drake Avenue,John O'neal, 1516
Drake Avenue,expressed the following concerns with the project:apologized for submitted letter of concern --�
today, hoped that the Commission would read it tonight, there is a lot information and misinformation
needed to be brought forth, floored by the developer's actions, asked if City Arborist was present;no, staff
tried to contact him today but was not available; after two years of trying to get the developer to protect the
trees and avoid this from happening,Mayne Tree originally recommended that the development stay 20 feet
from the Redwood trees, over time made allowances to protection, now have extensive root damage,
important root system at risk; Commission needs to revoke or suspend current permits,would like to see a
detailed arborist report done by an independent arborist and not by Mayne Tree, all new proposals and
studies need new mitigation measures based on new plans,would like to see details of legal action against
the developer, the contractor and Mayne Tree; floored to see backhoe ripping roots during excavation,
watched as roots 5+inches in diameter were snapped,told backhoe operator to stop,was told by contractor
that the excavation was for the subfloor crawl space and that once finished with Lot 9 would go on to Lots
10 and 11,there was no miscommunication,this was not a clean up,excavation was for building pad on Lot
9;developer was gone all day during excavation,developer may have not told the contractor to excavate but
the contractor had plans which called for a subfloor excavation on all three lots;was told by City Arborist
that the developer's arborist new not to touch the site, City Arborist explained the requirements which
needed to be met before any work commenced,called the City Arborist on Wednesday and told him that the
excavated area was being backfilled,City Arborist indicated that the contractor maybe filling in the pool and
not the excavated area,called the City Arborist again to tell him that the contractor was filling the excavated
area,building inspector confirmed, City Arborist noted that he was going to call the police; do not think
Mayne Tree should be involved with this project,feel that the City Arborist is not taking this issue seriously;
need to stop everything and do air spading,need to have independent arborist complete report,concerned
12
City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
with tree falling. Commissioner asked if the contractor was directed to dig? Neighbor noted that she didn't
know for sure,but saw contractor on site with three sets of unapproved plans.
Continued comment:asked Commission if they remember the situation with this developer on Poppy Drive
several years ago,endangered an oak tree and cut it down,example of how developer was involved with not
following conditions of approval on another site; need to now find out how roots were damaged, need to
excavate by hand so C. Osterling can evaluate. C.Osterling noted that he would be interested in seeing the
roots once the root exploration is complete, cannot comment on the roots because there is a conflict of
interest,independent arborist will have to provide report on roots; approval of this project was issued prior
to the proposed development at 1553 Drake Avenue,Commission needs to discuss properties as four lots,
development on all four lots will greatly impact the neighborhood,development at 1553 Drake Avenue has
not been resolved;when and how should there be consequences to the developers'actions;concerned with
Mr.Huntington's arborist report,report indicates that roots to the north and west of the Redwood trees could
have significant root loss, excavation occurred in these areas,need to pause,conduct root exploration and
understand level of damage before allowing any construction on these sites; submitted six photos taken on
November 26, package is incomplete, this is a four house multi-unit subdivision, need to review all four
houses,concerned why contractor had three sets of unapproved plans on site,conditional use permit should
be revoked because the circumstances have changed, need to considered the cumulative impact in
accordance with the zoning code and CEQA,the developer's behavior is outrageous;feels that the developer
is not overstretched because the project foreman lives at 1553 Drake Avenue,protective fencing was shoved
out of the way during excavation and moved closer to the trees, protective fencing is moveable and the
protective fencing plan is not adequate,Mr.Hudak talked about exploring the roots in the excavated area,the
roots there were all removed with the excavation, swimming pool is 80 feet from the excavated area, pit
varied in depth from 54 inches deep at its deepest point to 18 inches 50 feet away towards the rear of the lot,
roots extend under utility easement and to 1529 Drake Avenue, many roots were severed; held up a 2'x4'
piece of redwood and showed a damaged root from the site larger than 3%2 inches in diameter, showed a 7
inch tall bottle for comparison,referred to photos submitted of damage to roots on site,also brought a larger
root damaged by the excavation;feel that the developer,contractor and foreman willfully forfeited the right
to develop on this property by their actions,developer cannot abide by the rules and should not be permitted
to building in Burlingame. Commission noted that the root shown at the meeting was cut and asked who cut
it? Neighbor indicated that this is only a portion of the severed root taken from the site,cut it at home so it
could be brought to the meeting, also noted that the developer brought in additional gravel to the site two
days after the stop work order was issued; came to public hearings for 16 months to preserve the
neighborhood, have lived here for over 25 years, expressed considerable doubt that something bad would
happen, this is a cost of doing business for the developer, he'll just pay his way out, developer builds the
houses,makes a profit and leaves town,property owners have to live with the consequences,this is a pretty
town to live in,but it makes no difference to the developer, something has to be done to stop this,has seen
protective fencing moved several times,would like to see harsh penalties imposed;this is a disappointing
situation,there are too many misunderstandings with the arborist,with the City,with the City Arborist,there
are misunderstandings with what the distance should be from the trees to the protective fencing,depth of the
excavated area, distance from the protective fencing to the excavated area, misunderstandings with the
requirement to air spade, how deep the excavated area is and so on;this is not about the neighbors versus
the developer, this is about the Planning Commission executing their responsibilities, Commission must
bring resolution to this problem and interpret the rules,in addition to all of the misunderstandings there are
too many data gaps on the Redwood trees,specifically need a certified Redwood tree arborist to serve as an
13
City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
expert here;traffic issues have not been full resolved,looking to the Commission to provide leadership,they
are the controlling body. -�
Mr.Hudak noted that he has listened to the neighbors'and Commissions'concerns tonight,it would be most
effective to have an independent certified arborist chose by the City on site as frequently as the City feels
necessary,would like to work at solving this problem for the City and the neighborhood. There were no
further comments and the public hearing was closed.
Commission discussion: need to clearly find the extent of the damage, there appears to be considerable
damage but don't know how bad,independent certified arborist will assess and provide a report of damage,
need more time to evaluate the conditions, can't decide on how to proceed with the project now until the
investigation is complete. Commissioner asked if a certified Redwood tree expert is necessary?
Commissioner noted that he doesn't think that a Redwood tree expert can tell us more than Mr. Levison
could(independent arborist recommended by the City),have worked with Mr.Levison in the past and feel
that he is qualified;agree need to investigate damage to date,need to find out extend of excavation,need to
have an analysis of conditions which would allow for a certain type of foundation;these actions undermine
the confidence in the developer to abide by the conditions,need to assess the quality of conduct,need to get
a clear picture of what is going on, feel that it was willfully done by the evidence presented; Commission
needs to see legal advice regarding whether or not to suspend or revoke the permits granted,there is enough
information now in the record;from day one the Redwood trees were an issue,developer was aware of this
importance, and what resulted was possible damage to the Redwood trees.
C.Keele moved to continue this item until the conditions and root damage have been properly investigated
and until the foundation type for the houses has been developed. --�
Comment on the motion: CA noted that he would find a law firm that could give the Commission legal
advise about suspending or revoking the permits. Commission directed that the backfilled area needs to be
uncovered under the supervision of an independent arborist. The Commission asked who is going to pay the
independent arborist and any staff time associated with the project? CP noted that the developer would by
responsible,this would also include an independent planner and building inspector if needed. C.Osterling
noted that when the root excavation is opened up he would like to be at the site, suggested that developer
should work under a plan during investigation and that this plan should be signed by the developer.
Commission asked what happens if it is determined after the root investigation that the project is not
buildable? CA noted that the plans as proposed are not buildable,if anything good came out of this situation
is that the developer, based on the site conditions, will be able to design a foundation which will be
buildable;would like to make it clear that the independent arborist is not obliged to approve this project,it is
perfectly acceptable for the independent arborist to say that this project can't be built,he does not have to
find a way to say yes; CA noted that the City does not have to give the developer design alternatives.
Commissioner asked if there is a way to allow the development of Lot 11? CA noted that there may be a
problem for the developer with phasing the construction on Lots 9 and 10, there may be a problem with
material staging and access for Lot 9 and 10 if Lot 11 is developed and not available, the developer has
asked if he could fill in the swimming pool for safety reasons;see no problem with allowing the developer to
fill in the pool at this time so long as it is supervised. Commission asked if there were any penalties than
can be imposed for backfilling after a stop work order was issued? CA noted that the next step would be to
have a preliminary injunction issued by the superior court but that it is hard to do. Commission provided the
following additional direction:
14
City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes December 8, 2003
• The developer is to pay for the independent arborist and planner chosen by the City;
• Survey of roots and damage to be conducted;
• Pool fill on Lot 11 to be completed only with proper supervision by a certified arborist;
�'" • The developer is to pay for any other personnel required to acquire the necessary data and complete
the investigation;
•
After root excavation is completed, mapped and assessed, Mr. Huntington can make a
recommendation to the independent arborist and City Arborist based on the site conditions;
recommendations will then be reviewed by the independent arborist and City Arborist;
• The independent arborist is to determine how much, location and the manner in which the current
backfill is to be removed for investigation; independent arborist is to also provide method of root
treatment;
• Provide map on site plan showing location of roots;
• Re-examine and determine location of protective fencing for roots,establish markers for perimeter of
fencing,and regularly inspect protective fencing for compliance with plan;air spading could help in
determining location of fence.
The motion was seconded by C. Osterling.
Chair Boju6s called for a voice vote on the motion to continue the item until the information requested,
including revised foundation plans,have been completed and reviewed by the City and arborist specialists..
The motion passed on a 6-0-1 (C. Keighran abstained). This item concluded at 11:10 p.m.

who was retired from the Police Department.
4. CURRENT BUSINESS.
4.1 ACTION ITEMS.
4.1.1 Elect New Chair and Vice Chair for 2004
It was moved and seconded(Comms. Warden/De Angelis)to nominate Vice Chair Cohen as Chair
for 2004, approved by voice vote, 3-1-1 (Vice Chair Cohen dissenting and Comm. Mayer absent).
It was moved and seconded (Comms. De Angelis/Cohen) to nominate Comm. Warden as Vice
Chair for 2004, approved by voice vote, 4-1 (Comm. Mayer absent).
4.1.2 Approval of Minutes for November 13, 2003
It was moved and seconded (Comms. Cohen/Warden)to approve the minutes, approved by voice
vote, 4-1 (Comm. Mayer absent).
4.2 DISCUSSION ITEMS.
4.2.1 On-street parking study for 800 block of California Drive
The Commission agreed to combine discussion of this item with Item 4.2.3. Sgt. Cutler stated
that, as requested at the last meeting, she checked the use permit for Autohaus Exec. The results
were that there is no limitation on cars being parked off-site. She stated that Code Enforcement
will be meeting with the owner soon. Sgt. Cutler also stated that the City Attorney advised that
posting"For Sale" signs on parked vehicles is not an enforceable citation. Commissioner Warden
stated that he and Commissioner De Angelis met recently with the owners and merchants of this
area to discuss the parking situation; and that,another meeting will be scheduled for January 2004.
From the floor,Mr. Bean stated that he periodically reports abandoned vehicles parked in this area
to the police. Mr. Wierenga stated he is opening his business in January and wants 1-2 hour
parking limit so there would be parking turnover Monday thru Saturday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. to
eliminate long-term parking. He suggested long-term and overnight parking be approved for the
east side of California Drive. Mr. Cory asked why the bus stop was moved which now eliminates
four parking spaces. Mr. Chou stated that the bus stop was moved due to the new traffic signal
there; however, he will meet with SamTrans to work out a possible relocation of the bus stop and

Thursday, December 11, 2003
to see why there is such a long red zone in place now.
4.2.2 Request for mid-block crosswalk at 875 Stanton Road
Mr. Chou stated that according to the pedestrian study conducted, this crosswalk would only
service this site and four employees next door. He stated that he cannot recommend a mid-block
crosswalk since there is no big influx of employees to use it.
From the floor, Ms. Costello stated that even without the pedestrian volume, it's a serious hazard
for the disabled to cross at this site.
It was moved and seconded (Comms. Cohen/De Angelis) to make this an Action item
immediately; approved by voice vote, 4-1 (Comm. Mayer absent). It was then moved and
seconded (Comms. Cohen/McIver) to deny the request for a mid-block crosswalk, approved by
voice vote, 4-1 (Comm. Mayer absent). Ms. Costello stated she will re-submit her request if use
increases.
Comm. De Angelis suggested that the passenger loading zone approved last month be placed
where the petitioner wants the crosswalk. Mr. Chou stated that he and the petitioner had looked
at that possibility. If the loading zone were placed directly in front of the main doors, it would
eliminate two on-street spaces. The originally suggested location is west of the entrance, and
adjacent to a driveway which would provide additional space for drivers to pull into the zone. Ms.
Costello stated that she has no problem with this location and preferred it over being directly in
front of the building entrance. Comm. Cohen suggested leaving the loading zone location as is.
4.2.3 Request for 1-hour parking limit at 827 California Drive
See Item 4.2.1.
4.2.4 Requests for STOP sign/pedestrian signal on Carolan Avenue at Morrell Avenue
Mr. Chou stated that he had completed pedestrian count studies for this site; however, due to rainy
weather, the results were lower than expected. He stated that Police enforcement has also been
high for this study period. He restated that while no funding is available for installation of an
illuminated crosswalk, staff would attempt to apply for grant funding, and list this as a future
Capital Improvement Project. Mr. Chou explained that the crosswalk currently has school crossing
signs and pavement legends. However, the problem is that the street is very flat and drivers may
not see the legends. As an interim measure, staff is recommending the installation of reflective
buttons and orange knock-down delineators at the crosswalk. Mr. Chou explained that the
reflective buttons can increase crosswalk visibility and would be highlighted by vehicle lights. The
Commissioners further discussed raising the crosswalk, an illuminated crosswalk sign, battery-
operated lighting and customized knock-down delineators.
From the floor, Ms. Padilla was concerned that nothing has been done yet and asked if the high
school students have been educated. Sgt. Cutler advised that Officer Harmon spoke to the school

Thursday, December 11, 2003
principal about the majority of drivers being students using this thoroughfare. Many citations have
been issued since additional enforcement was stepped up. Ms. Padilla suggested a platform on the
west side and the hedges being cut back. She then volunteered to be a crossing guard at this site.
Mr. Cory stated that his walking stick was hit by a passing vehicle and his dog almost got hit,too.
It was moved and seconded (Comms. Cohen/Warden) to move this item to an Action item
immediately. It was then moved and seconded(Comms. Cohen/Warden)to install delineators and
reflective dots with the addition of signs on delineators for the short term; and for the long term,
to install an illuminated system if we get the funding; approved by voice vote, 4-1 (Comm. Mayer
absent). Comm. Warden asked if the residents could contribute some of the needed funding. Mr.
Chou will check the feasibility of that.
4.2.5 Request removal of 2-hour parking limit on Occidental Avenue
From the floor, Ms. Sparer requested that the parking limit sign remain because if they are
removed, drivers would stop using the parking lots. She requested stickers for residents so they
could park longer. Drivers coming from El Camino Real generally drive 45 mph on this street. Mr.
Klein stated that the 2-hour parking is a nuisance for him and his guests. He requested stickers for
residents and their guests. Mr. Sparer stated that several moving trucks park overnight between
Bellevue and Chapin. He requested that the signs remain and requested stickers for residents. Ms.
Klein requested removal of the signs; but if they're not removed, she requested stickers for
residents and guests. Comm. Cohen asked each speaker how much they would pay for an annual
sticker: $25 was the typical response. Sgt. Cutler stated that issuing resident stickers is a good
concept, but they require costly tracking by staff due to counterfeiting capabilities.
Comm. Cohen asked if the Bellevue corner is City property. Sgt. Cutler will verify what part
belongs to the county, to Hillsborough and to Burlingame. She stated that although enforcement
will be increased, using radar may not be allowed due to the short distance there.
Mr. Chou stated that response was low to the notices sent advising of this meeting. He
recommended re-noticing the neighborhood and continue this item as a Discussion Item next
month. Chair McIver requested that the next notice emphasize that the next meeting may be the
final meeting on this matter.
5. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF NEW ITEMS.
5.1 Request to review Dwight Road for speeding problems
Mr. Chou stated that a resident complained about the speeding on Dwight Road. The added bulb-out
helped but drivers are still speeding from northbound Delaware,and staff suggested looking at upgrading
the existing traffic light system at the intersection of Dwight Road and Peninsula Avenue to an actuated
system.
5.2 Request for height limit signs for Rollins Road at Marsten Road

Thursday, December 11, 2003
Mr. Chou stated that while the Commission recently dismissed this item, a business located on the
northwest corner of the intersection has asked that the Commission examine this request again.
6. FROM THE FLOOR.
6.1 Mr. Eckert stated that he lives on the corner of Peninsula and Bancroft. On a regular basis, there
are so many cars parked on the Bancroft side of his property that there is no room for his car or guests.
Residents in a rental unit next door regularly park five cars on the street. Residents and guests of
Woodlake Apartments park at this site. Further, Woodlake will be relocating many residents' off-street
parking to the street due to construction. Also, he has seen people park their cars and take other
transportation to the airport leaving their cars for several days. He has reported cars parking beyond
72 hours to the police. Sgt. Cutler advised that they can report the cars from the first day they park so
the police can place a 72-hour warning notice on the vehicle and tow it away after 72 hours. Also, the
police can issue warnings at night if the parked cars don't have an overnight parking permit on display.
Comm. Warden suggested that Mr. Eckert contact Woodlake management to request their residents
not park in other areas.
7. INFORMATION ITEMS.
7.1 From Staff to Commission
7.1.1 Traffic Engineer's Report
Mr. Chou stated that the City has received three applications for Traffic Commissioner.
Appointment by Council is anticipated next month.
7.1.1.1 Bicycle Safety Issues in Burlingame -None.
7.2 From Commission to Staff
7.2.1 Reports of citizen complaints or requests
Comm. Warden asked about speeding at McKinley School. Sgt. Cutler advised that the School
Liaison Officer will be taking care of this issue. Comm. Warden asked about the No Left Turn sign
for Bellevue Avenue at El Camino Real. Mr. Chou will check on the work order status.
Chair McIver asked about double striping on Burlingame Avenue business area. Mr. Chou stated
that he is waiting for a paving project so he can add this item to the contract.
7.2.2 Comments and communication -None.
7.2.3 Expected absences of Commissioners at the Thursday, January 8, 2004 meeting -None.

B. Community Recognition Program — Schwartz reported that the City Council approved
two of the three provisions of the Community Recognition Program drafted by the Parks

a field or other City facility (excluding buildings) for individuals who have contributed
over 30 years of service to the community and have met the other criteria, and (2)
establishing a walk of fame for individuals who have contributed over 10 years of service
and have met the other criteria. The other provision, the naming of a facility or a portion
of a facility for major donors to capital projects, was tabled. Council members Baylock
and Nagle will meet with Schwartz in January to consider the policy.

NEW BUSINESS
A. Application to Rename the Burlingame Soccer Center Field—Commissioners reviewed
the application from CYSA to rename the Burlingame Soccer Center"Murray Field at
Bayside Park"in support of the accomplishments of Jim and Pauline Murray to the
Community. The Murray's assisted with the formation of AYSO, CYSA and Irish
Football; and coached and served on the board for AYSO, CYSA and Bobby Sox
Softball.
Director Schwartz indicated that AYSO has expressed support for the application,but has
not had an opportunity to have a board meeting since the previous Council meeting to
vote approval. AYSO's official application is anticipated prior to the January 51 City
Council meeting. Schwartz also suggested that the Commission may wish to amend the
facility renaming criteria in the future to require support from two community non-profit
organizations.
Commissioner Erickson asked if a plaque would be placed at the field and where the
funds for the plaque would come from. Burlingame Resident, Gay O'Brien, stated her
support for the application and suggested that donations of funds for a plaque can be
solicited from Jim Murray's former players. Schwartz stated that this item would be
considered by the City Council if the application is approved.
Commissioner Muller moved to "Rename the Burlingame Soccer Center to Murray
Field". Commissioner Dittman seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
REPORTS
A. Parks&Recreation Department Report-Director Schwartz reported the following:
1. The Bag Lunch & Bingo program that replaced the Senior Nutrition Program has
been very successful
2. Brochures for the Spring 2004 session are in the mail to the residents
3. The closure of the swimming pool for preventative maintenance has been completed
three days ahead of schedule,with all of the scheduled items addressed
4. The bids were opened for Washington Park playground and will be before Council on
January 5f for approval. The low bid was $30,000 less than the architect's estimate
5. Burlingame is currently undertaking a Facilities Masterplan to assess the condition of
each City building and establish a priority list for future improvements
6. A $10,000 grant was received recently from SBC for Millbrae and Burlingame to use
for technology in a Teen Center. Because a Teen Center is not possible at this time,
SBC has stated that they will consider the two cities using the funds for other similar
projects. After discussion it was suggested that the funds be used towards
establishing a homework center in the Easton Branch Library.

B. Commissioners
1. Commissioner Erickson suggested that the YAC members meet with local college
students who have been involved in similar issues as discussed at the Teen Forum.
This would give the YAC members a better insight into the issue statements and
possible solutions.
2. Commissioner Kahn noted the difficulty reading the tree information on the back
cover of the Spring 2004 Recreation Brochure. She also expressed her
disappointment in the community for failing to support the Teen Center dinner
dance. After discussion, Erickson suggested that the commissioners evaluate the
dinner dance project at the January meeting.

Jesus Nava

City of Burlingame

Burlingame,CA 94010
Dear Mr.Nava:
This letter servers to notify you of the various product offerings RCN has launched during 2003 and
our new rate structure as of January 15,2004.
During 2003 RCN has been busy maintaining its reputation as the state-of-the-art provider of cable
television,high-speed Internet access and telephone services.During this year RCN has expanded
our product offerings to include:
Megamodem Mach 3 and Megamodem Mach 5-We doubled the download speed of our basic
cable modem to 3 Mbps(Mach 3)and increased our premium cable modem to 5Mbps(Mach 5)—at
no additional cost to our subscribers.There is no faster residential downstream speed in the Bay
Area.Our upstream speed of 800 Kbps remains over three times as fast as the residential upstream
speed of DSL or other cable modem providers.
3 More Digital Cable TV Channels-Fuel-Fox Extreme Sports,Tennis Channel and SoapNet.
IMPULSE Video on Demand-This service allows customers to watch what they want,when they
want it.After ordering a selection,customers can immediately view the program for an unlimited
number of times during the 24-hour rental period.Customers have full control of their VOD
selections with VCR functions that allow them to pause,fast-forward,stop,and rewind within the
rental period,using their remote control.VOD programming includes hit movies,classic movies,
double features,events and ESPN programming.
IMPULSE Subscription Video on Demand with HBO On Demand and Cinemax.On Demand
allows customers to view unlimited HBO and Cinemax programming for a monthly fee.HBO On
Demand gives unlimited access to over 100 titles of current and classic HBO original programming
Hollywood movies,children's programming and HBO specials.Cinemax on Demand offers movies
and late night features.
High Definition Television- This service offers 6 channels that bring consumers high definition
technology and is 6 to 10 times the picture clarity of standard definition television in a wide- screen
format. HDTV has the capability to experience the full benefit of Dolby Digital 5:1 surround sound
home theater systems. RCN's HDTV tier includes ESPN HD, HDNet, HDNET Movies and Discovery
HD Theater. RCN is the only cable operator in San Francisco to offer all four of these HDTV
networks.
ESPN HD covers live professional games in all four major sports. HDNet and HDNet Movies are new
national networks broadcasting most of their programs in HD format , including movies, live sports
and concerts, documentaries , news and entertainment. Discovery HD Theater offers high-definition
nature, wildlife, science and technology programs. HDTV tier customers who also subscribe to HBO
and Showtime will automatically receive HBO and Showtime HD as part of their HD lineup. RCN
also offers HBO HD and Showtime HD to customers who subscribe to these premium networks and
rent RCN's high definition converter box.
Home Networking- RCN customers can now share interconnect speeds of up to 5 Mbps among
several computers in their home. RCN's Home Networking package provides broadband security via
a firewall, access to basic parental controls and 24/7 technical support.
Also in 2003, RCN worked hard to lower costs while continuing to provide our state-of-the-art
services. Unfortunately, the fees we pay cable networks for their programming represents our single
largest cost. Once again this year, the networks (of which 22% are owned by incumbent cable
companies) increased their rates significantly. As a result, RCN will be increasing some of its rates
as of January 15, 2004.
For those customers subscribing to RCN's basic cable service there will be a rate increase of $3.00
to $39.95 for 80 channels. The Resilink Gold Package will increase by $3 from $130 to $133 and
our Essential CPI Package will increase by $5 increase from $90 to $95. A complete list of our rates
and rate increases are included in the attached summary.
Even with these increases, RCN provides Burlingame residents a choice for cable television, high-
speed Internet access and telephone whose value and offerings cannot be matched by any other
provider.
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions.
Sincerely,
David Hankin
