TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL SUBMITTED BY:
DATE: November 9,2009 APPROVED BY:
FROM: William Meeker,Community Development Director—(650)558,77255
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR A FINDING OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY(PCN)
PURSUANT TO SECTION 23958.4 OF THE CALIFORNIA BUSINESS AND
PROFESSIONS CODE,RELATED TO A REQUEST FOR AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE
SALES PERMIT ISSUED THROUGH THE CALIFORNIA ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE
CONTROL BOARD(ABC),FOR A BEVMO RETAIL STORE TO BE LOCATED AT 1462
BURLINGAME AVENUE
RECOMMENDATION
The City Council should:
• conduct a public hearing and consider all information within the staff report,as well as any written
and oral testimony,and following closure of the public hearing;
• consider adoption of the following resolution,by title only,waiving further reading:
"A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BURLINGAME DETERMINING
THAT THE PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY WOULD BE SERVED BY THE
CALIFORNIA ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONTROL BOARD'S ISSUANCE OF AN ALCOHOLIC
BEVERAGE SALES LICENSE FOR 1462 BURLINGAME AVENUE(BEVERAGES AND MORE)"
BACKGROUND
Beverages & More (BevMo) has leased the vacant retail space (formerly "Talbot's') located at 1462
Burlingame Avenue. The space is to be converted to a new BevMo retail outlet that will offer an
extensive inventory of beer,wine,spirits,gourmet food and other related items; such as glassware and
accessories.
On August 31, 2009, BevMo applied for two types of alcoholic beverage sales licenses through the
California Alcoholic Beverage Control Board (ABC). A "Type 21" on-sale beer and wine permit is
requested for the retail sales of alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption. Additionally, a"Type 42"
on-sale permit is requested to allow educational beer and wine tastings on premises;the area used for
tastings is to be physically separated from the retail portion of the store by 42-inch high walls; and is to
be located within the rear of the store,occupying an area of 10-feet x 10-feet.
Beer and wine tastings are to be offered on Friday evenings from 4 pm.To 7 p.m.,and Saturdays from
12 p.m. to 6 p.m. During the store's grand-opening, tastings will occur Friday through Sunday from 9
a.m.to 7 p.m. Special tastings will be offered for holidays,and will occur from 12 p.m.to 7 p.m.on those
days. Holidays include: Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Cinco de Mayo, Halloween, day before

1462 Burlingame Avenue — BevMo
Finding of Public Convenience and Necessity
November 16, 2009
Thanksgiving, and New Year's Eve. Samples are to be approximately one ounce in size, subject to a
nominal charge, as required by the ABC. No one under 21-years of age will be permitted within the
tasting area.
BevMo indicates that the facility will employ approximately fifteen (15) local residents; additional help
may be hired during holiday periods.
DISCUSSION
Finding of Public Convenience and Necessity: As noted, BevMo's license application was filed with the
ABC on August 31, 2009. Pursuant to Section 23958.4 of the California Business and Professions
Code, since the number licenses permitting alcohol sales within the area exceeds the maximum number
allowed within the census tract (six licenses existing; four allowed), constituting an "overconcentration"
per ABC regulations; BevMo is required to seek City adoption of a finding of "public convenience and
necessity' prior to issuance of the licenses by the ABC. Adoption of a finding of public convenience and
necessity by the City is, in essence, a determination that based upon analysis by the City, issuance of
the requested Type 21 and Type 42 licenses to BevMo will not be detrimental to the public health, safety
and welfare.
Police Department Review: The Burlingame Police Department has reviewed BevMo's request for ABC
licenses. The findings of this review are attached to this report. To summarize, the Department supports
a finding of"public convenience and necessity" and issuance of the requested licenses by the ABC. The
Police Department found that there are four businesses similar to BevMo within Burlingame (these are
listed within the attached report); only one of which is located in the Downtown area. That business
(Wine Stop Liquors) has had 25 calls for service within that past three years. However, none of these
calls were associated with ABC license violations, and none had a significant relationship to the nature of
the business. Statistics for the other businesses located outside of the Downtown area are included
within the Department's report. Though the Downtown area has a high number of licensed alcohol
outlets, Wine Stop Liquors is the only other business similar in nature to BevMo. The other ABC licensed
locations are associated with restaurants, bars, nightclubs and retail food sales.
The Police Department supports City Council adoption of a finding of public convenience and necessity,
and recommends that the following suggested conditions be forwarded to the ABC for consideration:
1. Ensure that any actual alcoholic beverage window displays be kept to a minimum to discourage
"window smash" type burglaries and thefts when the business is closed.
2. The interior and exterior designs of the building should include camera monitoring and recording
to assist local law enforcement in the suppression of crime and the identification and
apprehension of violators of the law, in- or outside of the business.
3. The company shall support efforts of the ABC, the Burlingame Police Department, and local
schools related to student education in the areas of alcohol awareness, danger and avoidance,
and education awareness about the dangers of DUI driving in local high schools that have
teenage students at (or near) driving age.
4. Ensure that shopping carts from the business are retrieved on a regular basis from all locations
within the community.

1462 Burlingame Avenue — BevMo
Finding of Public Convenience and Necessity
November 16, 2009
Zoning and Land-Use: The property at 1462 Burlingame Avenue contains a gross floor area of 9,963
square feet. The property is presently zoned "C-1" and lies within "Sub-Area A" of the "Burlingame
Avenue Commercial District". Within the district, the retail sale of alcoholic beverages for off-site
consumption is considered a "permitted" use. Since the change in tenancy of the property results in no
change in the classification of the use (retail sales), additional parking is not required for the use.
On October 13, 2009 BevMo received Planning Commission approval of a commercial design review
request that will result in a minor alteration to the Burlingame Avenue entry to the building (a change in
the entry doors, with retention of the existing entry alcove). Awnings will be installed on the Burlingame
Avenue fagade of the building, in accordance with applicable City regulations. Signage will also be
installed in conformance with the City's Sign Ordinance. No other significant exterior changes are
proposed for the exterior of the structure. Necessary tenant improvements will occur within the shell of
the structure to accommodate the new use.
FISCAL IMPACT
Though an exact amount is unknown, BevMo's retail operation will generate additional sales tax revenue
to the City.

A sign is posted stating that no one under 21 is allowed in the tasting area. Customers are
also not allowed to bring in spirits or shopping carts of any kind into the area.
Permitting the sale of alcoholic beverages and offering testings at this location will
provide residents with a convenient, well-maintained facility with reasonable prices that
will have a positive impact on the local economy and community.

1461 BURUNGAMB AVENUE � '�BURLINGAME,CALIFORNIA �alre
CITY OF B URLINGAME
INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMO
TO: William Meeker, Community Developmen ing Director
FROM: Jack Van Etten, Chief of Police
DATE: September 15, 2009
RE: Police Department Recommendation in Support of the ABC License Applications with
suggested recommended conditions(BEV MO— 1462 Burlingame Avenue)
According to the attached documents presented to the Burlingame Community Development and
Planning Department,the applicant company(BEV MO) is intending to open a liquor sales
business at 1462 Burlingame Avenue, and has applied for a both"On Sale" (type 42) and"Off
Sale" (type 21) ABC liquor licenses to sell alcoholic beverages(and related items such as
gourmet food, glassware, accessories, etc.)to the public. Also, as part of their business, the
company plans to hold wine and beer tasting in a designated area within the business
establishment(the reason for the "On Sale"license application). The BEV MO company has
already completed the necessary documentation through the State Department of Alcoholic
Beverage Control for both of these licenses.
However, due to the high concentration of liquor licenses in the Burlingame Avenue (downtown)
Area,the applicants' request for both"Off Sale" and"On Sale" liquor licenses exceeds the
number of liquor licenses allowed by ABC for the census tract and area. As a result,the
applicant must seek approval for the ABC licenses from the City of Burlingame through the City
Council by way of a letter of public convenience or necessity.
After reviewing the applicant company's ABC documentation, the Police Department conducted
some research into similar types of businesses. This includes crimes and calls for service related
to those similar businesses for the past three (3)year time period(9/1/06—8/31/09). The
research found 4 similar businesses within the main retail areas in our city. The businesses are
identified as follows:
Wine Stop Liquors - 1300 Burlingame Avenue (Downtown Business District)
Weimax Liquors - 1178 Broadway Avenue (Broadway Business District)
Young's Liquors- 1408 Broadway Avenue(Broadway Business District)
Baggies Liquors- 1535 Plaza.Lane (Burlingame Plaza.Business District)
Only one(1)of these businesses is located in the Downtown Business Area(Wine Stop Liquors),
and that business had 25 calls for service during the past 3 years. However,none of the calls for
1
service at or near the establishment were associated with ABC violations and none had any
significance to their liquor sales business.
The other three(3)businesses (Weimax Liquors, Young's Liquors and Baggies Liquors) all of
which are not located in the Downtown Business Area had 9 calls for service, 10 calls for service
and 18 calls for service, respectfully, over the same three (3) year time period. Weimax Liquors
had 1 reported city ordinance violation; Young's Liquors had 2 reported ABC violations;
Baggies Liquors had 1 reported ABC violation. The premise history information regarding each
of businesses identified above is attached to this memorandum.
The police department has noted that only one (1) other business in the Downtown Business
Area is an actual liquor store business, similar to the BEVMO applicant. The downtown area has
a high number of liquor licenses, but these licenses are mainly associated with other types of
businesses, such as; adult or family dining establishments, convenience food businesses, bars,
nightclubs or convenience stores. Since only one (1) other similar business exists in the
Downtown Business Area, it appears that another similar business would mainly supplement the
convenience of our community, as well as the adjacent communities of Hillsborough and
Northern San Mateo.
Based on the above information, as well as the information contained in their letter to our
Community Development and Planning Director on September 11, 2009, the Burlingame Police
Department finds and concludes there is a public convenience issue involved in this application
for the sale of alcoholic beverages (and related items) associated with such a business. The
Burlingame Police Department therefore recommends(in addition to the conditions agreed upon
in the BEVMO letter),that the City Council accepts the application(with the following
conditions that should be included as a condition of the ABC licenses):
1. Insure that any actual alcoholic beverage window displays be kept to a minimum to
discourage "window smash"type burglaries and thefts when the business is closed.
2. The interior and exterior designs of the building include camera monitoring and
recording to assist local law enforcement in the suppression of crime and the
identification and apprehension of violators of the law in or outside of the business.
3. The company support efforts of the ABC,the Burlingame Police Department and local
schools related to student education in the areas of alcohol awareness, danger and
avoidance, and education awareness about the dangers of DUI driving in local high
schools that have teen age students at(or near) driving age.
4. Insure that shopping carts from the business be retrieved on a regular basis from all
locations in the community.
If these conditions are met by the applicant and approved as conditions through the ABC
licensing process, the Burlingame Police Department is recommending that the city approve the
applicant's request for both"Off Sale"and"On Sale" liquor licenses for their business(with the
2
noted conditions)as a public convenience.

This item has been removed from the agenda by staff and will be re-scheduled for a future date. This
action was taken in light of information contained within a recent letter from an opponent to the project
that calls into question the adequacy of the CEQA evaluation of the project. Staff will immediately
proceed to conduct a revised evaluation of the project pursuant to CEQA and schedule the matter for re-

written and oral testimony; after conclusion of the public hearing;
■ Adopt the ordinance, by title only, waiving further reading; and
■ Direct the City Clerk to publish a summary of the ordinance within 15 days of adoption.
The public hearing for action was noticed in a newspaper of general circulation (The Examiner) on
November 11, 2009.
HISTORY
City Council Introduction: On November 2, 2009, the City Council introduced the proposed
ordinance to amend certain provisions of the Title 25 of the Burlingame Municipal Code. The Council,
by a 5-0 vote, introduced the ordinance, directed the City Clerk to publish a summary of the ordinance
and set the date for the second reading of the ordinance on November 16, 2009.
Planning Commission Action: On September 14, 2009, the Planning Commission recommended
that the City Council adopt the amendments to Title 25 of the Municipal Code (Zoning Ordinance).
The City Council previously considered the amendments at its meeting of October 5, 2009 (see
attached City Council Staff Report from that date which provides full analysis of the amendments, as
well as the minutes from the meeting). At that time, the Council generally concurred with the Planning
Commission's September 14, 2009 recommendations, but expressed a desire to include a "sunset
clause" which would limit the life of the amendment related to approvals granted by the Planning
Commission and/or City Council to a period of two years; after which time the time limits for permit
1
INTRODUCE ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 25(ZONING CODE) November 16, 2009
approvals and extensions would revert back to the current one year initial term, with the opportunity
for additional one year extensions beyond that initial term. The addition of the sunset clause was
deemed a material change to the proposed amendments, causing the Council to remand the package
of amendments back to the Planning Commission for consideration of the addition of the sunset
clause.
At its meeting of October 26, 2009, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing to consider
the proposed amendments extending time limits for approvals granted by the Planning Commission
and/or City Council; extending the term for extensions of such approvals; and clarifying the appeal
period for design review applications. The primary focus of the hearing was the addition of a sunset
clause, as suggested by the City Council on October 5, 2009. Following conclusion of the public
hearing, the Planning Commission moved to recommend approval of the amendments as contained in
the draft resolution attached to this report, including the addition of a two year sunset clause, as
follows:
The term for this amendment extending time limits applicable to permits granted by the
Planning Commission and/or City Council as referenced herein, shall "sunset" (expire)
two (2) years following the effective date of the amendment; after which time, the initial
term for permits granted following the "sunset" date shall be one (1) year, with the
opportunity provided for one (1) year extensions; as stated within Section 25.16.130 of
Title 25 of the Burlingame Municipal Code prior to adoption of the amendments
contained herein.
Impact of the Sunset Clause: Projects approved, or permits for which times limits have been
extended, during the two year period that the extended time limits remain in place would continue to
benefit from the extended time limits granted during the period of applicability of the amendments.
Upon "sunset' of the amendment to the time limits, the remaining time limit for any existing approvals
would be allowed to lapse in accordance with the latest approval; whether an initial approval, or
extension. Beyond the "sunset' date, new project approvals would be subject to a one-year initial
time limit, with the opportunity for one year extensions beyond that initial period.
Prosect Description:
The following amendments are proposed for consideration by the City Council:
■ Increase the initial time limit for exercising approvals granted by the Planning Commission and
City Council from one year to three years (Burlingame Municipal Code Section 25.16.130 (a);
■ Amend the number and time limit for extensions from one year extensions (applicant may now
apply for more than one extension) to a one-time, two-year extension (Burlingame Municipal
Code Section 25.16.130 (a);
■ Provide for the application of the proposed time limit amendments to approvals that have not
yet expired, or are still within an approved one-year extension; and
■ Clarify and amend the appeal period for design review applications from 7 days to 10 days to
be consistent with appeal periods for other applications (Burlingame Municipal Code Section
25.57.030 (h).

INTRODUCE ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 25(ZONING CODE) November 16,2009
BACKGROUND:
Increase the Time Limit for Exercising Approvals Granted by Planning Commission and City
Council: Residents and business owners in the City of Burlingame have been experiencing
economic difficulties during the recession. In its second quarterly report of 2009(released June 16,
2009), UCLA Anderson Forecast senior economist Jerry Nickelsburg notes "there is nothing
happening in California that will help pull the state out of recession in advance of the nation."The
Forecast also says that`overall, the forecast for California is for a very weak first two quarters of
2009,to be followed by very little growth in the last six months of the year.The economy will begin to
pick up in 2010 and return to more normal levels of growth in 2011."
In speaking with homeowners, contractors and developers, Planning Division staff is finding that
because of the recession,many applicants are postponing building projects approved by the Planning
Commission and City Council until the economy recovers. Applicants have given several reasons for
deferring projects,including job loss and difficulties in obtaining a construction loan or obtaining a loan
at a reasonable rate.
Currently, the Zoning Code (Code Section 25.16.130) requires construction for a project which
includes approval of a variance,conditional use permit,special permit,condominium permit or design
review application to commence within one year from the date of approval by the Planning
Commission and/or City Council. Planning staff would note that a building permit must be issued
within that one year period. If the applicant is unable to commence with the use or obtain a building
permit within one year of approval,the Commission may grant a one-year extension upon request by
the applicant. Currently,the Zoning Code allows the Commission to grant more than one extension
upon review of the application;though,historically,the policy has been to grant only one extension.
Staff would note that in the case of a condominium or condominium conversion project,the approval
is valid until the tentative map for the condominium subdivision expires, which is two years during
which time a building permit must be issued. Generally, an extension of up to three years may be
considered if application is made before the end of the second year,in accordance with the provisions
of the Subdivision Map Act for a Tentative Map. This proposed amendment would not make any
changes to time limits involving condominium projects.
As previously noted, applicants are increasingly deferring projects because of the current economic
situation. The existing time limit to exercise an approval may not be sufficient to keep permits alive
until the economy recovers. Often, applicants may be forced to let permits expire or may not
remember to apply for an extension. In addition,other cities have time limits for exercising approvals
which exceed our current provisions.
Based on these factors, this amendment is proposed to increase the time limit of the initial term for
exercising approvals granted by the Planning Commission and City Council from one year to three
years. The amendment would also change the time limit for extensions from unlimited, one-year
extensions to a one time,two-year extension to provide a control on the extensions. Combined,these
amendments would provide an applicant up to five years to exercise their approval and obtain a
building permit to construct the project. It is suggested that the revised time limits also be applied to
approvals that have not yet reached their initial expiration, or that have been extended and remain
valid; in other words,an initial one-year approval that has not expired as of the effective date of the
amendments would be automatically receive a two-year additional term for the initial approval
(resulting in an initial term of three years). For those approvals that have received a one-year
extension; an additional one-year would be added to the extension period (for an extension period
totaling two years). Given the uncertainty regarding when the economy may be expected to recover,
the increase in the time limit to exercise an approval and a longer extension period would provide
applicants ample time to obtain the appropriate financial resources for their projects.

City of Thousand Oaks 3 years 2, 2-year extensions 7 years
Planning staff would note that since January of 2007, approximately 30 applications reviewed and
approved by the Planning Commission were not submitted for a building permit (includes design
review, conditional use permit, variance, special permit and condominium applications). In addition,
the Building Division reports that in the same time period, approximately 15 applications reviewed by
the Commission were approved by the Building Division, but have not yet been issued building
permits because the applicant has not paid the permit fees.
The proposed amendment would apply to all future applications approved the Planning Commission
and City Council and would also apply to all previously approved projects that are within their initial
approval term, or extension term. Unfortunately, current laws do not allow for this amendment to be
retroactively applied to projects for which approvals have expired by the effective date of the
amendment. These applicants would need to reapply as a new project. Please note that the sole
purpose of the amendments is to provide a greater timeframe for project proponents to complete their
projects (e.g. receive financing approval, obtain building permits, etc.). Adoption of the proposed
amendments would not "freeze" any applicable development and/or permit fees at levels that would
have been collected during the initial term of the approvals. All fees collected at the time of permit
issuance would be those in effect at the time the permits for construction are actually issued; unless
the project includes a vesting subdivision map as part of the approval.
Clarify the Appeal Period for Design Review Applications: While recently reviewing the Zoning
Code, Planning staff noted an inconsistency in the appeal period for design review applications.
Previously, the Zoning Code stated that the appeal period for all Planning Commission approvals
ended at the following City Council meeting, which was usually seven days after an application was
approved. Several years ago, the Zoning Code was amended to establish a 10-day appeal period.
Burlingame Municipal Code Section 25.16.040, which applies to all applications approved by the
Commission, states that "the determination and order of the commission shall become final and
conclusive after ten (10) days from the date of the commission decision if no appeal is filed."
However, the change to the appeal period for design review applications was inadvertently left out
and never amended. Municipal Code Section 25.57.030 (h) (Design Review) states that "Decisions of
the Planning Commission under this chapter shall be subject to appeal to the city council and. . .that
the determination of the commission shall become final and conclusive in seven (7) days from the
date of the Commission decision if no appeal is filed with the City Clerk."
4
INTRODUCE ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 25(ZONING CODE) November 16, 2009
Planning staff has been applying the 10-day appeal period to all approved applications, including
design review projects. The proposed amendment ordinance would eliminate the inconsistent
language in the second part of Code Section 25.57.030 (h) so that approved design review
applications would also be subject to the 10-day appeal period.
Environmental Review Status: The proposed changes to the Zoning Code are Categorically
Exempt from review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Section
15061(b) (3) of the California Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) which states that where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the
activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment that the activity is not subject to
CEQA. No significant environmental impacts would occur as a result of this amendment.

and consideration for adoption at the Council meeting of October 19, 2009.
Environmental Review Status:
The proposed changes to the Zoning Code are Categorically Exempt from review pursuant to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Guidelines for Implementation of

there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment that the

Planning Commission Action:
On August 24, 2009, the Planning Commission reviewed the proposed changes to the Zoning Code at a
regular St.'dy session. The COmi??l 1—1 1.Karl ca�rcra( ^,�:esti;?r1S regarding the proposed amendments and

Planning Commission meeting on September 14, 2009, the Commission held a public hearing on the
proposed changes to the Zoning Code (refer to attached September 14, 2009 Planning Commission

it is a good idea to make the amendments retroactive to include active project approvals;and that increasing
the appeal period to ten(10)days for design review applications is good because it provides more time for
anyone interested in the project to appeal. The Commission noted that they agree with the changes
suggested by staff. However,they expressed some concern about the initial approval term of three(3)years
being too long and noted that they would be more comfortable with an initial two(2)year term. On the other
hand,the Commission also pointed out that there could be fewer requests for extensions with an initial three
(3) year term. The Commission recommended the proposed changes to the Zoning Code, as presented
(with a three-year initial term),to the City Council for action.
Proiect Description:
The following amendments are proposed for consideration by the City Council:
• Increase the initial time limit for exercising approvals granted by the Planning Commission and City
Council from one year to three years(Burlingame Municipal Code Section 25.16.130(a);
• Amend the number and time limit for extensions from one year extensions(applicant may now apply
for more than one extension)to a one-time,two-year extension(Burlingame Municipal Code Section
25.16.130(a);
• Provide for the application of the proposed time limit amendments to approvals that have not yet
expired,or are still within an approved one-year extension;and
• Clarify and amend the appeal period for design review applications from 7 days to 10 days to be
consistent with appeal periods for other applications (Burlingame Municipal Code Section 25.57.030
(h).
Attachment"A" is an edited copy of the existing code sections with strikeouts and proposed new language.
Attachment"B"is a clean copy of the ordinance as it would be adopted.
Background:
Increase the Time Limit for Exercising Approvals Granted by Planning Commission and City Council:
Residents and business owners in the City of Burlingame have been experiencing economic difficulties
during the recession. In its second quarterly report of 2009 (released June 16, 2009), UCLA Anderson
Forecast senior economist Jerry Nickelsburg notes"there is nothing happening in California that will help pull
the state out of recession in advance of the nation."The Forecast also says that"overall, the forecast for
California is for a very weak first two quarters of 2009, to be followed by very little growth in the last six
months of the year.The economy will begin to pick up in 2010 and return to more normal levels of growth in
2011."
In speaking with homeowners, contractors and developers, Planning Division staff is finding that because of
the recession, many applicants are postponing building projects approved by the Planning Commission and
City Council until the economy recovers. Applicants have given several reasons for deferring projects,
including job loss and difficulties in obtaining a construction loan or obtaining a loan at a reasonable rate.
Currently, the Zoning Code (Code Section 25.16.130) requires construction for a project which includes
approval of a variance, conditional use permit, special permit, condominium permit or design review
application to commence within one year from the date of approval by the Planning Commission and/or City
Council. Planning staff would note that a building permit must be issued within that one year period. If the
applicant is unable to commence with the use or obtain a building permit within one year of approval, the
Commission may grant a one-year extension upon request by the applicant. Currently, the Zoning Code
allows the Commission to grant more than one extension upon review of the application;though,historically,
the policy has been to grant only one extension.
-2-
INTRODUCE ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 25 (ZONING CODE). October 5, 2009
Staff would note that in the case of a condominium or condominium conversion project, the approval is valid
until the tentative map for the condominium subdivision expires, which is two years during which time a
building permit must be issued. Generally, an extension of up to three years may be considered if application
is made before the end of the second year, in accordance with the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act for a
Tentative Map. This proposed amendment would not make any changes to time limits involving
condominium projects.
As previously noted, applicants are increasingly deferring projects because of the current economic situation.
The existing time limit to exercise an approval may not be sufficient to keep permits alive until the economy
recovers. Often, applicants may be forced to let permits expire or may not remember to apply for an
extension. In addition, other cities have time limits for exercising approvals which exceed our current
provisions.
Based on these factors, this amendment is proposed to increase the time limit of the initial term for exercising
approvals granted by the Planning Commission and City Council from one year to three years. The
amendment would also change the time limit for extensions from unlimited, one-year extensions to a one
time, two-year extension to provide a control on the extensions. Combined, these amendments would
provide an applicant up to five years to exercise their approval and obtain a building permit to construct the
project. It is suggested that the revised time limits also be applied to approvals that have not yet reached
their initial expiration, or that have been extended and remain valid; in other words, an initial one-year
approval that has not expired as of the effective date of the amendments would be automatically receive a
two-year additional term for the initial approval (resulting in an initial term of three years). For those
approvals that have received a one-year extension; an additional one-year would be added to the extension
period (for an extension period totaling two years). Given the uncertainty regarding when the economy may
be expected to recover, the increase in the time limit to exercise an approval and a longer extension period
would provide applicants ample time to obtain the appropriate financial resources for their projects.
For comparison, Table 1 below describes the approval periods for cities close to Burlingame and throughout
the state.
Table 1 - Comparison of Time Limits for Exercising Approvals
City Approval Period Extension Total
City of Burlingame (current) 1 year 1-year extensions 2+ years
City of Burlingame (proposed) 3 years 2 years 5 years
City of San Mateo 2 years 2 years 4 years
City of Millbrae 1 to 3 years 1-year extensions 4+ years
City of Lomita 1 year 1 - year extensions 2+ years
City of Modesto 2 years 1-year extensions 3+ years
City of Sacramento 3 years up to 5 years 8 years
City of Salinas 1 year none 1 year
City of San Marino 1 year 1 -year extensions 2+ years
City of Thousand Oaks 3 years 2, 2-year extensions 7 years
Planning staff would note that since January of 2007, approximately 30 applications reviewed and approved
by the Planning Commission were not submitted for a building permit (includes design review, conditional use
permit, variance, special permit and condominium applications). In addition, the Building Division reports that
in the same time period, approximately 15 applications reviewed by the Commission were approved by the
-3-
INTRODUCE ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 25(ZONING CODE). October 5,2009
Building Division,but have not yet been issued building permits because the applicant has not paid the permit
fees.
The proposed amendment would apply to all future applications approved the Planning Commission and City
Council and would also apply to all previously approved projects that are within their initial approval term,or
extension term. Unfortunately, current laws do not allow for this amendment to be retroactively applied to
projects for which approvals have expired by the effective date of the amendment. These applicants would
need to reapply as a new project. Please note that the sole purpose of the amendments is to provide a
greater timeframe for project proponents to complete their projects (e.g. receive financing approval, obtain
building permits, etc.). Adoption of the proposed amendments would not "freeze" any applicable
development and/or permit fees at levels that would have been collected during the initial term of the
approvals. All fees collected at the time of permit issuance would be those in effect at the time the permits for
construction are actually issued; unless the project includes a vesting subdivision map as part of the
approval.
Clarify the Appeal Period for Design Review Applications: While recently reviewing the Zoning Code,
Planning staff noted an inconsistency in the appeal period for design review applications. Previously, the
Zoning Code stated that the appeal period for all Planning Commission approvals ended at the following City
Council meeting, which was usually seven days after an application was approved. Several years ago,the
Zoning Code was amended to establish a 10-day appeal period. Burlingame Municipal Code Section
25.16.040,which applies to all applications approved by the Commission,states that"the determination and
order of the commission shall become final and conclusive after ten (10) days from the date of the
commission decision if no appeal is filed." However, the change to the appeal period for design review
applications was inadvertently left out and never amended. Municipal Code Section 25.57.030(h) (Design
Review)states that"Decisions of the Planning Commission under this chapter shall be subject to appeal to
the city council and...that the determination of the commission shall become final and conclusive in seven(7)
days from the date of the Commission decision if no appeal is filed with the City Clerk."
Planning staff has been applying the 10-day appeal period to all approved applications, including design
review projects. The proposed amendment ordinance would eliminate the inconsistent language in the
second part of Code Section 25.57.030(h)so that approved design review applications would also be subject
to the 10-day appeal period.

MUNICIPAL CODE TO INCREASE THE TIME LIMIT FOR EXERCISE OF VARIANCE,
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, SPECIAL PERMIT, OR CONDOAUNIUM PERMIT AND
TO AMEND THE TIME LIMIT FOR EXTENSIONS, AND TO AMEND CHAPTER
25.57.030 TO CLARIFY THE APPEAL PERIOD FOR DESIGN REVIEW APPLICATIONS
CDD Meeker reviewed the staff report and requested Council consider amending the zoning code to increase
the initial time limit for exercising approvals by the Planning Commission and City Council from one year to
three years; amend the number and time limit for extensions from a one year extension to a one-time, two-
year extension; provide for the application of the proposed time limit amendments to approvals that have not
yet expired, or are still within an approved one-year extension; and clarify and amend the appeal period for
design review applications from 7 days to 10 days to be consistent with appeal periods for other applications.
Council discussion followed and it was suggested that a two year sunset clause be added to the Ordinance;
after which time the original time limits for planning permits would be reinstated for projects approved after
the sunset date. There was also a suggestion to adopt the changes as they were introduced, and then amend
the ordinance again in two years. CDD Meeker advised that it was necessary to return it to the Planning
Commission for consideration of the change.
Councilwoman Nagel made a motion add a two year sunset clause to the Ordinance and return it to the
Planning Commission; seconded by Vice Mayor Baylock. The motion was approved unanimously by voice
vote, 5-0.

CITY OF BURLINGAME PLANNING COMMISSION—Approved Minutes August 24,2009
Community Development Director Meeker presented a summary of the staff report,dated August 24,2009.
The proposed changes would extend the initial approval term for development entitlements from one-year to
three-years. Project proponents would be permitted to request one,two-year extension of the initial term for
a combined term of five-years. Current policy is to grant one,one-year extension;though a literal reading of
the code implies that more than one extension is possible. The proposed amendments also include
language that would create consistency between the appeal periods applicable to design review permits
and other entitlements;creating a uniform ten-day appeal period;the appeal period for a design review
permit is presently seven-days.
Commission comments:
• How did staff arrive at the 3-year time frame? (Meeker—reviewed other cities'approaches,also
considered the timeframe applied to projects that involve a subdivision map.)
• Is there a sense forthe number of approvals that are actually used;how many approvals are never
used? (Brooks-We haven't kept records of the number of applications that are not pursued,the
number of outstanding permits represents about 25%of the number approved in a year.)
• Does the department intend to notify applicants of the change in the time frame for extensions?
(Meeker—parties that currently hold valid approvals granted prior to the effective date of the
ordinance change will be notified that their permits will be automatically extended;by two years if
they are in the initial term,and by one year if the permit is in an extension period.)
• Could it be tailored based upon project type; residential versus commercial; multi-family versus
single-family? (Meeker—discouraged such a differentiation,would be hard to keep track,and all
types are impacted by the economic downturn.)
• How will the City ensure ongoing maintenance of properties prior to construction? (Meeker—the
City's Code Enforcement Officer has the ability to work with property owners to ensure that
properties are maintained in a clean and safe condition,many of the delayed projects are single
family homes where someone still resides on the property.)
• Would building code changes apply to project where the approvals were granted in advance of the
changes?(Meeker—unless the project included approval of a vesting subdivision map,the codes in
place at the time of issuance of a building permit would apply.)
• Would fees be frozen at the time of project approval? (Meeker—Building Permit fees would be
collected at the rate in place at the time of building permit issuance. If a project included approval of
a vesting subdivision map,development impact fees would be those in place at the time the project
was approved.)
No changes to the proposed amendments were requested,and the item was scheduled for the Regular
Action Calendar when ready for consideration. This item concluded at 7:22 p.m.
VII. ACTION ITEMS
Consent Ca e -Items on the Consent Calendar are considered to be routine. They are acted upon
simultaneously unless s discussion and/or action is requested by the applicant,a member of the
public or a Commissioner prior to the Commission votes on the motion to adopt.
Chair Terrones asked if anyone in the audience or on mmission wished to call any item off the

SUBJECT: Public Hearing and Resolution Amending the Parks and Recreation Fees In the
City of Burlingame Master Fee Schedule
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council: 1) Hold a public hearing; and 2) Approve a Resolution amending the
Parks and Recreation fees in the City of Burlingame Master Fee Schedule.
BACKGROUND:
The City Council approved fee adjustments for the FY 2009-2010 budget on April 20, 2009.
The adjustments are reflected in the City of Burlingame Master Fee Schedule. All fee
adjustments became effective July 1, 2009. The Parks & Recreation department is adding
several new rental fees, which are market based. In addition the department is delineating fees
that will be applicable to San Mateo Union High School District and Burlingame School District

SUBJECT: FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL REPORT FOR FY 2009-2010
General Fund Revenues:
First quarter revenues continue to decline from prior year collections. Total revenues for July,
August and September of 2009 were $4,430,237. This amount represents a decrease of 13.6% or
$697,115 from the same period last fiscal year. Total revenues for July, August and September
of 2008 were $5,127,352. The city historically collects 10% of its revenue in the first quarter.
Property Taxes—No property tax payments were received in the first quarter. The city receives
about half of its property taxes in December. The other half is paid in April.
Sales Taxes—The city only receives and posts one monthly advance from the State in the first
quarter. Therefore it is difficult to establish a trend for the new fiscal year. The first quarter
payment was $208,454, a 59% reduction from the first quarter payment of$510,262 that
occurred in fiscal year 2008-2009.
TOT Taxes—The city received $2,460,178 in the first quarter of the fiscal year. This amount
represents a 24% reduction from the $3,244,161 collected in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008-
2009. Please note that first quarter TOT grew by 12% last fiscal year prior to the start of its
decline. The double digit growth last year exacerbates the decline in the current fiscal year.
General Fund Expenditures:
First quarter expenditures total $8,923,858 and represent 23% of the total budget. Expenditures
are down by $1.1 million or 11% from the prior year first quarter total of$10,047,951.
Recommended Fiscal Posture:
➢ Cautious and conservative city finances
➢ No new expenditures until trends are positive for 2 to 3 consecutive quarters
➢ Continue to look for savings opportunities
➢ Continue to look for cost reductions
➢ Explore future cost containment strategies
➢ Forecast future operating cost increases

APPROVED BY
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
DATE: NOVEMBER 6, 2009
FROM: PUBLIC WORKS
SUBJECT: RECREATION CENTER SEISMIC STUDY UPDATE
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that council review the findings of the
Recreation Center Seismic Study and provide direction to staff.
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Recreation Center
auditorium hall per current seismic code requirements and present alternatives to
upgrade the structure to the 2007 California Building Code (CBC). The existing
building was originally constructed in the late 1940's and was modified several times
to obtain its current configuration. The building contains a large auditorium, social
hall, a small exercise room, classrooms, administrative rooms, a kitchen and storage
rooms. The evaluation was limited to the seismic systems of the auditorium hall and
multipurpose room. Structural engineer, Cecil H. Wells Jr. and Associates, Inc. of
San Mateo performed the seismic evaluation of the structure.
DISCUSSION: As part of the seismic evaluation, field inspections, structural
calculations, and a review of as-built drawings were done. In addition, non-
destructive structural testing was performed on the building to determine the level of
steel reinforcement and concrete grouting in the existing masonry walls. The details
of the evaluation and findings are included in the consultant's report (see attached).
Following are the key findings:
■ No visual apparent issues were found that requires immediate attention.
■ No significant cracking was observed.
■ No apparent settlement of the foundation was seen.
■ The foundation of the building included continued reinforced concrete beams.
■ The perimeter walls were built of Concrete Masonry Units (CMU) with both
horizontal and vertical steel reinforcement.
■ The CMU walls were found to be grouted only at the cells containing steel
reinforcement.
■ Similar to other buildings that were built prior to the current code which do not
meet the current seismic requirements, the recreation center is no different.
The reinforcement as well as grouting in the walls would not meet the current
code and would require new vertical elements to be designed for the lateral
force resisting system.
■ Similarly, the roof sheathing of the structure would not comply with the current
code and new plywood needs to be added over the existing sheathing to
transfer the seismic forces to the new vertical elements.
It is important to note that CBC requires that if a building is remodeled or substantially
upgraded it would need to comply with current seismic standards. In this case, since
no such improvements are being made at this time, no seismic upgrade is required
and is confirmed by City's Chief Building Official, Joseph Cyr. It is also noteworthy to
mention that the structure performed very well during the 1989 Loma Prieta
Earthquake of magnitude 6.9 and did not experience major damage.
The seismic evaluation presented three alternatives to upgrade the structure to the
2007 CBC ranging in costs from approximately $1.17 to $1.26 million dollars. The
upgrades consist of new lateral resistive structures made of wood, shotcrete or steel
frames and foundations with properly securing roof system. The cost estimates do
not include replacement or upgrade of architectural, mechanical, electrical, fire and
safety or accessibility systems. Also, the costs do not include studies for the removal
of hazardous materials, if present. Further, the costs mentioned herein are for
engineering purposes only and true costs would be known upon receiving
construction bids.
Options: Following are the options with advantages and disadvantages are for
Council consideration:
1. Upgrade the facility now to meet current seismic standards.
Advantages Disadvantages
• The structure will comply • No funding is available for this
with current seismic code upgrade.
resulting in improved safety
• If seismic improvements are
made now, the auditorium hall
may or may not fit with future
configuration of the Recreation
Center and may potentially have
to be demolished/reconstructed
resulting in inefficient use of
funds.
• As the existing building is nearly
60 years old, it may be wise to
redo the entire Recreation Center
as compared to only upgrading
the auditorium hall.
2. Consider improvements to the facility as part of a comprehensive future
Community Center project.
Advantages Disadvantages
• Funds needed to upgrade the • Structure would not meet current
structure could be used in a more seismic standards until a later date
comprehensive improvement to
the Recreation Center at a later • The building seismic performance
date potentially may not be as strong as
if it would be with upgrades. (This
would be similar to other buildings
built before the current code)
Alternately, the Council may desire to prioritize the project with respect to other City
needs as part of the capital improvement program and pursue the upgrade of the
auditorium in the near future when funding becomes available without waiting for a
comprehensive Recreation Center improvements plan.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no funding available in the current budget for suggested
improvements.

Dear Mr. Monaghan:
I. Introduction and Scope:
In accordance with your request we have completed our seismic evaluation of a portion
of the above noted recreation center. For the purposes of this study, our work has been
confined to the evaluation of the lateral force resisting system for the social hall and
auditorium portions of the building. Our review was based on the lateral force design
requirements in the 2007 California Building Code. In addition where appropriate, we
will suggest seismic improvements for the above noted portions of the building. The
scope of our work included:
1. The structural review of the available construction documents relevant to
the social hall and auditorium areas of the building.
2. Limited field observations and measurements of the building.
3. Consult with the testing laboratory during the testing phase of the work.
4. Preparation of structural calculations to review the lateral force resisting
system for the social hall and auditorium portions of the building.
5. Preparation of schematic plans and details to highlight suggested seismic
improvements to the social hall and auditorium.
6. Provide preliminary budget construction cost estimates for the suggested
structural improvements.
7. Preparation of this report.

II. Buildin1l Description
The existing building was originally constructed in the late 1940's as a one story
primarily wood framed structure. The original construction is shown on the architectural
and structural drawings titled "Recreation Building for Washington Park, Burlingame
California", dated November 12, 1948. The drawings were prepared by Oscar R. Thayer,
A.I.A., Architect. The code used to design this building is not noted on the construction
documents. However, the probable edition of the code used that was used would likely
have been the 1946 Uniform Building Code. The building has been modified many times
since the original construction to obtain its current configuration. The building contains a
large auditorium, social hall, a small exercise room, classrooms, administrative rooms, a
kitchen and storage rooms. This report is limited to the seismic systems of the social hall
and auditorium.
The social hall is a one story wood framed structure which is located at the south west
corner of the building, directly west of the auditorium. This section was remodeled in
1997 when a small addition was constructed along the south and west exterior walls.
These modifications are noted on the architectural and structural drawings titled
"Burlingame Recreation Center Remodel-Phase I", dated March 1997. The drawings
were prepared by Steve Nielsen Architects and the work was designed using the 1994
Uniform Building Code. The roof over this portion of the building is constructed of
composition shingles over plywood supported by sloping 2x10 roof joist and a grid of
exposed glue laminated wood beams. The first floor is a 4" thick concrete slab on grade.
The foundations consist of continuous reinforced concrete grade beams. The perimeter
walls and interior bearing walls are constructed of wood studs. The perimeter walls and
selected interior walls in the area also have plywood on one face. The wall finishes
consist of painted gypsum board at the interior walls and wood siding at the exterior faces
of the perimeter wall. The lateral load resisting system for this area consists of the
plywood roof diaphragm, the plywood shear walls and the existing concrete masonry
(CMU)walls of the auditorium.

The auditorium is a one story structure which is located at the south east corner of the
building. This portion of the building was originally constructed with a small mezzanine
at the west end of the auditorium and an elevated stage at the east end of this section. The
original construction consists of composition roofing placed over 2x straight laid decking
supported by 4x10 wood purlins and glue laminated arches. The first floor is a 4" thick
concrete slab on grade. The first floor of the stage is an elevated wood framed structure
over a crawl space. The foundations consist of a continuous concrete foundation under
the perimeter walls with isolated spread footings supporting the glue laminated arches
and the interior supports under the stage. The perimeter walls are constructed of 8" thick
CMU walls. The original drawings indicate that in general the walls are reinforced with
#5 vertical bars spaced at 32" center to center. The lateral load resisting system for this
area consists of the plywood roof diaphragm and the existing perimeter concrete masonry
(CMU)walls.
The auditorium was remodeled in 1970 when a small addition was constructed at the east
side of this area. These modifications are noted on the architectural and structural
drawings titled "City of Burlingame Recreation Building Additions and Alteration-
Project 1", dated October 30, 1969. The architectural drawings were prepared by
Kingsford Jones Architect. The structural portions of those drawings were prepared by J.
Albert Paquette and Associates, Structural Engineer. The code used to design this portion
of the building is not noted on the construction documents. However,the probable edition
of the code used to design the work would have been either the 1966 or the 1969 version
of the Uniform Building Code. The roof over this portion of the building is consists of
composition roofing placed on 2x straight laid decking supported by 4x10 beams. The
framing of the first floor is unknown. However the first floor appears to be an elevated
wood floor with a crawl space below. The foundations system likely consists of a
continuous concrete foundation under the perimeter walls with isolated interior spread
footings at the interior supports for the floor system. The walls are constructed of 8" and
12"reinforced CMU. The addition also contains a small wood framed mezzanine.
III. Structural TestinE
The seismic design of the multipurpose room and social hall use the CMU walls around
the auditorium as the vertical elements of the lateral force resisting system for these
areas. The information on the original construction documents related to the spacing and
grouting of the wall appears to be incomplete. Therefore, non destructive testing was
performed by Applied Materials & Engineering, Inc. to supplement the information
shown on the original documents. The results of this work are noted in the letter prepared
by Applied Materials & Engineering, Inc, dated March 23, 2009. A copy of this letter is
included in appendix A at the back of this report. In general, it was found that the
perimeter walls of the auditorium were reinforced with vertical bars spaced at 32" to 40"
center to center while the horizontal bars were spaced at 40" to 48" center to center. The
CMU walls were found to be grouted only at the cells containing reinforcing.
Burlingame Recreation Center 09-003
June 9, 2009 page 4
The CMU walls of the 1970 addition were found to be reinforced with vertical and
horizontal bars spaced at 16" center to center. In addition, the 12" thick CMU wall
appears to have a double curtain of horizontal and vertical reinforcing. The walls at the
1970 addition were also found to be fully grouted.
IV. Findings
1. No significant cracking of the masonry walls or settlement of the building
foundations or other visual structural issues that would require immediate
attention.
2. The building does not meet current code, which is similar to other
buildings in this area which have been built prior to the current code.
3. The California Building Code requires that if a building is repaired or
altered structurally it must be made to comply with the current seismic
standards. If no such improvements are made, seismic upgrades are not
required by the code.
However; in order to improve the seismic performance of the building and to meet
current seismic standards, options for upgrading the structure have been evaluated and
are presented below.
V. Structural Evaluation and Suggested Seismic Improvements
There have been many changes to the building code since the original design of this
building. The current seismic design requirements are provided in section 1613 of the
2007 California Building Code. In general, paragraph 1613.1 of this section states that
"Every structure or portion thereof............shall be designed and constructed to resist
the effects of earthquake motions in accordance with ASCE 7...... ". ASCE 7 is the
design standard titled Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures and is
published by the American Society of Civil Engineers. Chapter 12, Table 12.2-1 of this
standard requires masonry walls that are used as the vertical elements of the lateral force
resisting system be designed as special reinforced masonry shear walls. The reinforcing
and the grouting conditions of the 1948 constructed masonry walls will not comply with
the requirements for special reinforced masonry shear walls. Therefore, the existing
masonry walls cannot be used as part of the lateral force resisting system. The auditorium
and social hall will require new vertical elements be designed for the lateral force
resisting system. In addition, the 2x straight sheathing on the roof of the auditorium and
the 1970 addition will not meet the diaphragm requirements of the 2007 California
Building Code. Therefore, new plywood will need to be added over the existing 2x
sheathing to transfer the seismic forces to the new vertical elements.
Burlingame Recreation Center 09-003
June 9, 2009 page 5
There are two basic approaches for the design of the new vertical elements for the lateral
force resisting system. These approaches are briefly explained below:
1. Remove the existing masonry walls around the auditorium and construct
new vertical elements which are designed to comply with the 2007
California Building Code.
2. Leave the existing partially grouted walls in place and construct new
vertical resisting elements next to the partially grouted CMU walls. The
existing walls would be considered a non structural veneer. New structural
systems will need to be designed and constructed to support the in plane
and out of plane lateral forces of the CMU walls.
Our office has prepared preliminary structural calculations and schematic drawings for
three options considering each of the two above approaches. These options are presented
as options A, B and C. The schematic drawings are included in appendix C at the back of
this report. The foundations shown on the suggested options were designed using
assumed geotechnical considerations. A geotechnical report will be required for the final
design of the foundations. More economical foundation options can be explored with the
geotechnical engineer during the preparation of the final construction documents. The
budget cost estimates are summarized in Section V of this report.
A brief summary of each of the three suggested options is as follows:
A. Option A
The suggested improvements for Option A are shown on the schematic
plans sheets SA1.1 and SA1.2 along with preliminary 8'/2" x 11" details
enclosed in appendix C. Option A would leave the existing partially
grouted walls around the auditorium in place. New shotcrete walls
designed as special concrete shear wall would be constructed on the inside
face of the existing CMU walls. A brief summary of the suggested
improvements in this option would include:
• Remove the roofing over the auditorium and 1970 addition and add
new %"plywood over the existing 2x straight sheathing.
• Construct an 8" thick shotcrete wall on the inside face of the east
and west wall of the auditorium. In addition, 2- 16 foot long
sections of shotcrete wall would be required along the north and
south walls.
• Construct new foundations 2'-0" to 2'-6" thick and up to 7'-0"
wide under the new sections of shotcrete wall.
• Connect the existing CMU walls to the new shotcrete wall with
lines of plates and anchor bolts. These connections would be
visible from the outside of the building.
Burlingame Recreation Center 09-003
June 9, 2009 page 6
• Connect the new shotcrete wall to the roof structure by adding new
wood framing members with holdown ties to the shotcrete wall.
These connections are required to hold the wall to the roof
structure.
• Provide a frame work of steel columns behind the CMU wall in the
multipurpose room where the new shotcrete walls do not occur.
These columns would be designed to support the out of plane
forces from the existing CMU walls.
• Connect the existing CMU wall at the 1970 addition to the roof
structure by adding new wood framing members with holdown ties
to the CMU wall. These connections are required to hold the wall
to the roof structure.
• Add new cross ties to the roof diaphragm over the auditorium.
• Add new collector ties from the social hall roof structure to the
auditorium.
• Add new roof ties from the hall and classroom areas located to the
north of auditorium to the auditorium structure.
• Add new 1/2" plywood to the ceiling of the hallway and kitchen
area north of the auditorium.
B. Option B
The suggested improvements for Option B are shown on the schematic
plans sheets SB 1.1 and SB 1.2 along with preliminary 8'/2" x 11" details
enclosed in appendix C. Option B features the removal of the existing
CMU wall at the perimeter of the auditorium and constructing new wood
framed shear walls in its place. A brief summary of the suggested
improvements in this option would include:
• Remove the roofing over the auditorium and 1970 addition to add
new %2"plywood over the existing 2x straight sheathing.
• Remove the existing CMU walls around the auditorium and
construct new lighter weight plywood shear wall to replace these
walls.
• Construct small isolated concrete footings at the ends of each new
plywood shear wall segment. Widen the existing continuous
foundation at the rear wall of the stage.
• Construct a new seismic joint between the 1970's addition and the
rear wall of the stage.
• Re-nail the some of the existing plywood shear walls at the social
hall portion of the structure.
• Add new collector ties from the social hall roof structure to the
auditorium shear walls.
• Add new roof ties from the hall and classroom areas located to the
north of auditorium to the auditorium structure.
Burlingame Recreation Center 09-003
June 9, 2009 page 7
• Connect the existing CMU wall at the 1970 addition to the roof
structure by adding new wood framing members with holdown ties
to the CMU wall. These connections are required to hold the wall
to the roof structure.
C. Option C
The suggested improvements for Option C are shown on the schematic
plans sheets SC1.1 and SC1.2 along with preliminary 81/2" x 11" details
enclosed in appendix C. Option C, similar to option A would leave the
existing partially grouted walls around the auditorium in place. New steel
special concentric braced frames would be designed as the new vertical
elements of the lateral force resisting system. There would be a total of
five braced frames added to resist lateral forces in the north-south
direction. These frames would be constructed within the envelope of the
auditorium building. Four new braced frames would be added to resist
lateral forces in the east west direction. These frames would be
constructed on the exterior side of the wall and therefore would be visible
along the south and north building elevations. In addition, steel tie beams
placed just below the roof, and steel support columns outside of the
building would be visible from the exterior. A brief summary of the
suggested improvements covered in this option would include:
• Remove the roofing over the auditorium and 1970 addition to add
new %2"plywood over the existing 2x straight sheathing.
• Construct 9 steel braced frames inside and outside the building.
• Construct new foundations 2'-0" to 2'-6" thick and up to 8'-0"
wide under the new braced frames.
• Connect the existing CMU walls to the new steel columns at the
braced frames with lines of plates and anchor bolts. These
connections would be visible from inside and outside of the
building.
• Add new steel columns behind the CMU wall in the auditorium
and stage area. These columns would be designed to support the
out of plane forces from the existing CMU walls.
• Connect the new steel columns to the roof structure by adding new
wood framing members with ties to the columns. These
connections are required to transfer the out of plane forces from
the existing CMU wall to the roof structure.
• Add new cross ties to the roof diaphragm over the auditorium.
• Add new collector ties from the social hall roof structure to the
auditorium braced frames.
• Add new roof ties from the hall and classroom areas located to the
north of auditorium to the auditorium structure.
• Add new %2" plywood to the ceiling of the hallway and kitchen
area north of the auditorium.
Burlingame Recreation Center 09-003
June 9, 2009 page 8
• Construct a new seismic joint between the 1970's addition and the
rear wall of the stage.
• Construct a new shear wall in the 1970's addition.
• Connect the existing CMU wall at the 1970 addition to the roof
structure by adding new wood framing members with holdown ties
to the CMU wall. These connections are required to hold the wall
to the roof structure.
VI. Preliminary Budget Cost Estimates
Budget estimates have been prepared by Portman Associates, Construction Consulting &
Project Management for all three of the above options. A copy of their estimate is
included in appendix B at the back of this report. A partial listing of the assumptions used
in the preparation of the preliminary estimates is as follows:
• Costs do not include the replacement or upgrade of architectural,
mechanical, electrical, fire and safety or accessibility systems.
• The architectural treatment of exposed structural members has not
been considered in this study. Therefore the costs for this work are
not included in the preliminary budgets costs presented in this
report.
• New structural work to be installed by cutting and patching the
areas of the building.
• Costs do not include studies for or the removal of hazardous
materials, if present.
• Costs do not include the temporary relocation of the Recreation
Department or loss of use of the building, if applicable.
• Costs include an allowance for architectural, structural,
mechanical, electrical and geotechnical design services.
• Costs include a construction contingency of 15%.
Please refer to appendix B for a detailed breakdown in the costs and a listing of other
items that are not included. A summary of the preliminary costs for each option is as
follows:
Option A: $1,262,040.00
Option B: $1,244,750.00
Option C: $1,165,840.00
VII. Limitation of this Review
A. It is understood that we make no warranty, either expressed or implied, as
to the findings, designs, recommendations or professional advice except
that they were prepared in accordance with current generally accepted
professional practices.
Burlingame Recreation Center 09-003

B. The building was partially reviewed for compliance with the seismic
requirements of the 2007 California Building Code. The review is limited
to the social hall and auditorium areas of the building. Other areas of the
building were not considered and may not comply with the 2007
California Building Code.
C. The review does not consider the vertical load carrying systems for the
building.
D. The geological stability of the site cannot be determined without
geotechnical services. Such services were not included in the scope of this
study.
E. We have made reasonable efforts to assure that this report is accurate;
however we cannot assume any liability for conditions that this report
might fail to disclose.

SUBJECT: APPROVE LEASE AGREEMENT WITH T- BILL CORPORATION
FOR ANTENNA PLACEMENT IN WASHINGTON PARK
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that City Council approve the attached lease agreement(Attachment A)with
T-Mobile Corporation.
BACKGROUND:
Several months ago T Mobile approached the City with a proposal to install an antenna on top of
one of the light poles at the Washington Park baseball diamond. Staff has met with T-Mobile
representatives to fine tune the specifics,review the necessary process for approval and negotiate
a fee to be paid to the City in exchange for their use of City property.
The City Attorney has worked directly with T-Mobile legal staff on the lease agreement. Other
City departments,Public Works and Community Development/Building, have been involved
with the proceedings and have defined what will be necessary from T-Mobile assuming City
Council approval. The contract calls for an initial 5 year term, with a T-Mobile option for up to
3 additional 5-year terms.
DESCRIPTION(Please reference Attachment B,the site plan; Attachment C, which more
specifically depicts the locations of both the antenna unit and the storage facility; and
Attachment D, which provides a before and after construction photo simulation).
T-Mobile proposes placing an antenna unit at the top of one of the field light standards at the
Washington Park baseball diamond. This will be at a height of approximately 90 feet. The light
standard will be a brand new unit(replacing the existing)so that T-Mobile can place their
necessary wiring in the interior of the pole. The replacement light standard will operate in the
same manner and at the same efficiency level as the old one.
T-Mobile will then run their wiring underground from the base of the field light approximately
30 feet to a utility storage facility. This storage facility area is approximately 12 feet deep by 18
feet long by 8 feet high and will be located immediately adjacent to the south side of the existing
T-MOBILE LEASE AGREEMENT
NOVEMBER 16,2009 CITY COUNCIL MEETING

DESCRIPTION(CONT)
batting cage closest to the ballfield. The storage unit will have fencing around it,matching the
batting cage fencing,as well as landscaping allowing it to be"hidden" from public view.
T-Mobile will also run an electrical line to the far(east)end of the batting cage so that it may be
used as a power source for Movies in the Park and other needed electrical uses in this section of
the park.
It is anticipated that the new installations will not negatively affect any use of the park. The
removal and replacement of the light standard will take place during the winter months when the
baseball field is not being used.
TIMELLINE:
T-Mobile is anxious to proceed. Depending upon the time to receive permits and conclude the
initial soil tests,they are hopeful of having all in place by the end of December or early January.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Based on the agreed-upon monthly fee of$1,950 paid by T-Mobile to the City of Burlingame,
the General Fund will benefit by the annual amount of$23,400. This amount will be increased
by 15% if future Lease Renewals take place. Staff requests City Council consideration of
dedicating$5,000 of those proceeds to be used as part of our tree replacement program.

linear feet of aging and deteriorating water main system with a new and upgraded
pipe line system in this area. This request is for construction management services.

amount of $139,933:
• Perform contractor submittal review for shop drawings and materials
• Respond to contractor's requests for information
• Review change order requests and provide recommendations
• Attend weekly construction meetings
• Complete final construction record drawings for compliance
The professional service fee of $139,933 represents approximately 9% of the
$1,509,799 construction contract and is consistent with industry standards.
BUDGET IMPACT: The following are the estimated project expenditures:
Construction award $1,509,799
Construction Management 139,933
Construction Inspection 50,000
Staff administration 10,000
Construction contingencies(10%) 150,980
Total $1,860,712
Sufficient funds are available in the FY2009-2010 Water System Capital
Improvement Program budget to cover these costs.

Subject: Proposal for Construction Management Services
City of Burlingame — Gate/GroveNillage Subdivisions
City Project No. 80320
K/J Proposal No. 808144
Dear Jeff:
We are pleased to submit this proposal to provide additional engineering services related to the
City of Burlingame, Gate/GroveNillage Subdivisions Water Main Replacement Project. This
proposal is for engineering construction management services during construction of the
project.
Scope Of Work
Based on our initial assessment of the nature of the construction work for the
Gate/GroveNillage Subdivisions Water Main Replacement Project, it is our opinion that full-time
on-site observation of the construction should be performed. Based on our experience with
similar projects, we have found that full-time onsite construction observation is necessary due to
the potential for variation of site conditions. We understand that City staff will provide full-time
on-site observation. It is also understood that City inspection staff will submit daily inspection
reports to Kennedy/Jenks and coordinate and consult with Kennedy/Jenks on issues as they
arise. The work to be provided by Kennedy/Jenks Consultants is as described below.
We have divided our proposed work into the following four main tasks:
• Task 1 : Construction Management
• Task 2: Record Drawings
• Task 3: Project Closeout
• Task 4: Project Management

Based on our estimate of services required, we propose a budget of$139,933 which will not be
exceeded without authorization. It is recognized that budgeting for constructing management
services are inherently more difficult that budgeting for design services as construction
management services are highly dependent on the quality and organizational skills of the
Contractor. We will closely manage our budget and will advise you when we reach 80% of our
budget and at that time provide an estimate of our services required to complete the work.
A breakdown of our proposed budget is shown on the attached spreadsheet. This proposed
budget is based upon the following assumptions:
• Construction duration:150 working days
• Site visits and meeting attendance: 150 hours of site visits, 30 weekly meeting plus one
pre-construction conference ( 3 hours each )
• Submittal review: 25 submittals (including 5 resubmittals) at an average of 4 hours per
submittal (including documentation)
• RFI review: 12 RFIs at an average of 4 hours per RFI (including documentation)
• Change orders: 4 Change Orders (6 hours each)
• General consultation: 24 hours total
• Partial Pay Estimates: 8 each
• Sampling and testing: Contractor will contract directly with a soils testing company.
• Contractor utilizes no more than one primary crew to execute the work.
Construction Manager
We are proposing to use Tom Gorman as construction manager with support to be provided by
qualified staff from our Palo Alto office.
We appreciate the opportunity to propose on these engineering services. If you have any
questions regarding our proposal, or if you would like to discuss any aspect of the proposal in
detail, please do not hesitate to call.

SUBJECT: Local Taxpayer, Public Safety and Transportation Protection Acr
Recommendation
Adopt a resolution supporting Proposed Local Taxpayer, Public Safety and Transportation Protection Act
ballot initiative for the November 2010 statewide ballot to further restrict the State legislature's ability to take
local government funding
Background
On October 20, 2009 a coalition of local government,transportation and public transit leaders filed a ballot
measure, called the Local Taxpayer, Public Safety and Transportation Protection Act with the California
Attorney General's office. The measure would close loopholes and prevent the State from borrowing, raiding
or otherwise redirecting local government,transportation and public transit funds. Two similar versions of the
measure have been filed. If the group is successful in qualify the initiative via signature gathering, it would
appear on California's November 2010 statewide ballot.
California voters have overwhelmingly passed ballot measures to protect funding for public safety, emergency
911 response and other local government services. Chris McKenzie, Executive Director of the League of
California Cities and co-chair of Californians to Protect Local Taxpayers and Vital Services has stated that
Despite the passage of those measures, "State elected officials have exploited possible loopholes in the law
and used legally questionable tactics to borrow and raid more than $5 billion in local government,transit and
redevelopment funds this year alone, and billions more in ongoing raids from years' past.
Those raids are having a significant and negative impact on the vital services that all Californians rely upon,
including layoffs of local police and firefighters, delayed 911 emergency response times, and cuts to
healthcare, parks, libraries,public transit and road safety maintenance and community improvements. The
proposed measure would close the loopholes in current law and protect funding for these vital services once
and for all.
On several occasions, the voters of California have mandated that the gas taxes we pay at the pump be used to
fund transportation improvements, Despite this, year after year the Legislature exploits every loophole it can
find to borrow or outright raid these critical funds. This measure will once and for all protect gas taxes from
future raids and insure they are used to improve our roads, highways and transit systems—just like the voters
intended.
Josh Shaw, Executive Director of the California Transit Association and co-chair of the coalition said: "For eight years in
a row,State politicians have redirected funding that's supposed to go to local public transportation services, like buses,
commuter rail and shuttles. Even though we've warned these raids are illegal and the courts have ruled that such raids
are illegal,there's no recourse,so the politicians continue to ignore the law and the will of the voters. In these trying
times, it's vital that we protect public transit services for working families who have no other mode of transportation
to and from work,school,health care facilities and other life responsibilities."
The coalition's measure would:
✓ Prohibit the State from taking, borrowing or redirecting local taxpayer funds dedicated to public safety,
emergency response and other vital local government services.The measure would close loopholes to prevent
the taking of local taxpayer funds currently dedicated to cities,counties and special districts. It would also revoke
the state's authority to borrow local government property tax funds or divert local redevelopment funds.
✓ Protect vital,dedicated transportation and public transit funds from state raids. The measure would prevent
State borrowing,taking or redirecting of the state sales tax on gasoline (Prop 42 funds) and Highway User Tax on
gasoline (HUTA)funds that are dedicated to transportation maintenance and improvements. It would also prevent
the State from redirecting or taking public transit funds.
✓ Protect Local Taxpayers by keeping more of our local tax dollars local where there's more accountability to voters,
and by ensuring once and for all that our gas taxes go to fund road improvements. The measure also reduces
pressure for local tax and fee increases that become necessary when the state redirects local funds.
✓ Reform state government and enhance fiscal accountability. This measure is a key step in reforming California's
broken budget system by restoring more local control and accountability.This measure also stops the irresponsible
practice of the State borrowing special funds that have to be repaid with interest, which only puts our State further
in debt.
Restoring more local control over our tax dollars is a central piece to broader reforms of our state's broken
fiscal system. The fiscally irresponsible practice of borrowing local taxpayer funds makes our state budget
problems worse down the line because local government and transportation funds have to be repaid, with
interest. Additionally, several raids of local and transit funds have been rejected by the courts, creating even
larger state budget deficits down the line. This measure will help prevent these irresponsible and dishonest
raids and help force fiscal discipline in Sacramento."

WHAT IS YOUR MEASURE AND WHAT DOES IT PROPOSE TO DO?
The Local Taxpayer,Public Safety and Transportation Protection Act is a constitutional amendment that we are
working to place on California's November 2010 statewide ballot.The initiative would stop the State from raiding or
borrowing funding for local public safety,transportation,transit and other essential local government services.
Specifically,the measure would:
✓ Prohibit the State from taking,borrowing or redirecting local taxpayer funds dedicated to public safety,
emergency response and other vital local government services.The measure would close loopholes to
prevent the taking of funds currently dedicated to cities,counties,special districts and redevelopment agencies.
It would also end the State's fiscally irresponsible practice of borrowing local government property tax funds.
✓ Protect vital,dedicated transportation and public transit funds from State raids. The measure would
prevent State borrowing,taking or redirecting of the state sales tax on gasoline(Prop 42 funds)and Highway
User Tax on gasoline(HUTA)funds that voters have dedicated to transportation maintenance and
improvements.It would also prevent the State from redirecting or taking public transit funds.
✓ Protect local taxpayers by keeping more of our local tax dollars local where there's more accountability to
voters,and by ensuring once and for all that our gas taxes go to fund road improvements. The measure also
reduces pressure for local tax and fee increases that become necessary when the State redirects local funds.
WHY IS IT NEEDED?
Unfortunately,the State has continued its irresponsible practice of taking and borrowing local taxpayer dollars and
dedicated transportation funds. The 2009/10 state budget borrows and takes approximately$5 billion in city,
county,transit,redevelopment and special district funds this year despite the fact that voters have overwhelmingly
passed ballot measures to keep local funding at the local level to provide essential local services.This year's raids
and previous,ongoing state raids and borrowing jeopardize the services Californians need most,including police,
fire and emergency 911 services;local economic development and redevelopment;mass transit like buses and
commuter rail;and transportation improvements like road repairs and congestion relief.We need to pass this
measure to protect these vital local services from State raids and borrowing.
ISN'T FUNDING FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND TRANSPORTATION ALREADY PROTECTED FROM
STATE RAIDS?
California voters have overwhelmingly passed separate measures to prevent the State from raiding local
government and transportation funds.However,each and every year the State attempts to take or borrow local
government,transportation and transit funding using loopholes,or illegal funding diversions that have only been
stopped after expensive and lengthy court battles.This year alone,the Legislature:
• Borrowed approximately$2 billion in property taxes from local governments,despite no clear path to repay
these funds.

• Took $2.05 billion in local redevelopment funds, despite a recent Superior Court ruling that says these
types of raids are unconstitutional.
• Shifted $910 million in transit funding away from local transit agencies. The courts have since ruled these
types of raids are unconstitutional.
• Voted to take more than $1 billion of the local government share of the Highway User Tax (HUTA) to repay
state bond debt (but the measure stalled in Assembly). These are funds that have always been used to
finance local road repairs and maintenance.
• Took action to eliminate the state sales tax on gasoline (Prop 42 funds) and HUTA and replace with a
gasoline "fee' that would have no consfitutional protection from future raids by the legislature (the Governor
ultimately vetoed this measure).
• Threatened to borrow Prop 42 transportation funds to address the State's deficit.
Our measure would close loopholes in current law that the legislature has exploited to take or divert local funds.
And it would tighten sections of the law to prevent illegal State funding raids of local government and transportation
funds before they happen.
WHY DOES YOUR MEASURE PREVENT THE STATE FROM BORROWING LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND
TRANSPORTATION FUNDS?
The local government revenue protection measure in 2004 (Prop 1A) and the transportation revenue protection
measure in 2006 (Prop 1A) included provisions that allow the State to borrow these funds during fiscal
emergencies. However, after several budget cycles it is clear that these borrowing provisions are not only bad for
local governments and transportation services, but fiscally irresponsible for the State. Borrowing these dedicated
funds only plunges our state deeper into debt because the funds must to be repaid, with interestwithin three years.
The borrowing was meant to provide an outlet in short-term budget emergencies, but it's instead being used to
paper over structural budget problems. For example, the State has no clear way to pay back the $2 billion plus
interest in local property taxes that the State is borrowing as part of this year's 2009-2010 State budget, yet
lawmakers borrowed these funds anyway.
What's more, because the State has the authority to borrow local government and transportation funds, it creates
mass uncertainty for cities and counties who need to plan and pass their local budgets, and for transportation and
transit planners who aren't sure if they can rely on these revenues in any given year.
DOES THIS MEASURE INCREASE OR DECREASE REVENUES FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS OR FOR
TRANSPORTATION AND TRANSIT?
This measure does not increase or decrease the existing revenues that are dedicated to local government,
transportation and transit funds. It simply prevents the State from borrowing or raiding existing local government,
transportation and transit revenues that voters have dedicated to these services.
WONT THIS MAKE OUR STATE'S BUDGET SYSTEM EVEN WORSE BY FURTHER PUTTING A LOCK BOX
ON BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN FUNDING?
First, these are revenues that have historically been dedicated to cities, counties and special districts to fund local
government services. It's fiscally irresponsible for State Government to raid funds from local governments.

transportation, business and labor,with major funding from the League of California Cities(non-public funds)

Second,its important to remember that these are funds that voters have ALREADY dedicated to local government,
transportation and transit services.We are not dedicating any NEW funding for these services,but instead ensuring
that the will of voters is upheld by protecting local government and transportation funds from further State raids and
borrowing.
This reform is fiscally responsible and a key step in long-term reform for California.The State has gotten itself into
this deep fiscal mess in large part because lawmakers have relied on budget gimmicks like tapping into voter-
protected funds and borrowing which only pushes our problems into the future.
HOW DOES THIS MEASURE FIT INTO THE NEED FOR BROAD REFORM OF STATE GOVERNMENT IN
CALIFORNIA?
This measure is a necessary and responsible first step toward fiscal reform in California.Virtually everyone agrees
that State reforms must include the restoration of more local control over local tax dollars,and moving services
closer to the people at the local level.This measure ensures local control,predictability,and accountability for local
tax dollars that are used to provide the most essential local services.
WILL THIS MEASURE IMPACT FUNDING FOR PUBLIC SCHOOLS,HEALTHCARE OR OTHER SERVICES?
No.This measure does not take away funding from schools or any other service funded by the State because it
only protects EXISTING funds that are already dedicated to local services like public safety and transportation.And
this measure in no-way alters Proposition 98,which guarantees funding levels for K-14 schools.
HOW WILL THIS MEASURE IMPACT TAXPAYERS?
This measure provides further protections for existing revenues that voters have already dedicated to local
government,transportation and transit services.It does not increase taxes.In fact,this measure protects taxpayers
by keeping more of our tax dollars local where they're more accountable.And this measure decreases pressure for
local tax and fee increases at the local government level that become needed when the state takes local revenues
and local governments are forced to look for new revenues to protect vital services.

Proposed Measure
Section One. Title.
This act shall be known and may be cited as the"Local Taxpayer,Public Safety,and
Transportation Protection Aa of 2010."
Section Two. Findings and Declarations.
The people of the State of California find and declare that:
(a)In order to maintain local control over local taxpayer funds and protect vital services
like local fire protection and 9-1-1 emergency response,law enforcement,emergency room
care,public transit,and transportation improvements,California voters have repeatedly and
overwhelmingly voted to restrict state politicians in Sacramento from taking revenues
dedicated to funding local government services and dedicated to funding transportation
improvement projects and services.
(b)By taking these actions,voters have acknowledged the critical importance of
preventing State raids of revenues dedicated to funding vital local government services and
transportation improvement projects and services.
(c)Despite the fact that voters have repeatedly passed measures to prevent the State
from taking these revenues dedicated to funding local government services and transportation
improvement projects and services,state politicians in Sacramento have seized and borrowed
billions of dollars in local government and transportation funds.
(d)In recent years,state politicians in Sacramento have specifically:
(1)Borrowed billions of dollars in local property tax revenues that would otherwise be
used to fund local police,fire and paramedic response and other vital local services;
(2)Sought to take and borrow billions of dollars in gas tax revenues that voters have
dedicated to on-going transportation projects and tried to use them for non-transportation
purposes;
(3)Taken local community redevelopment funds on numerous occasions and used them
for unrelated purposes;
(4)Taken billions of dollars from local public transit like bus,shuttle,light-rail and
regional commuter rail,and used these funds for unrelated state purposes.
(e)The continued raiding and borrowing of revenues dedicated to funding local
government services and dedicated to funding transportation improvement projects can cause
1
severe consequences, such as layoffs of police, fire and paramedic first responders, fire station
closures, healthcare cutbacks, delays in road safety improvements, public transit fare increases
and cutbacks in public transit services.
(f)State politicians in Sacramento have continued to ignore the will of the voters, and
current law provides no penalties when state politicians take or borrow these dedicated funds.
(g) It is hereby resolved,that with approval of this ballot initiative, state politicians in
Sacramento shall be prohibited from seizing, diverting, shifting, borrowing, transferring,

read as follows:
SEC. 25.5. (a) On or after November 3, 2004, the Legislature shall not enact a statute to
do any of the following:
2
(1) (A) Except as otherwise provided in subparagraph (B), modify the manner in which

Legislature shall not change the pro rata shares of ad valorem property tax pursuant to this
paragraph, nor change the allocation of the revenues described in Section 15 of Article XI,to
reimburse a local government when the Legislature or any state agency mandates a new
program or higher level of service on that local government.
(4) Extend beyond the revenue exchange period, as defined in Section 7203.1 of the

authority, set forth in that section on that date, of a city, county, or city and county to impose a
sales and use tax rate under the Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax Law.
4
(5) Reduce,during any period in which the rate authority suspension described in
paragraph (4) is operative, the payments to a city, county, or city and county that are required
by Section 97.68 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, as that section read on November 3, 2004.

transfer, directly or indirectly, taxes on ad valorem real property and tangible personal property
allocated to the agency pursuant to Section 16 of Article XVI to or for the benefit of the State,
any agency of the State,or any iurisdiction; or(B)to use, restrict, or assign a particular purpose
for such taxes for the benefit of the State, any agency of the State, or any iurisdiction,other
than (i)for making payments to affected taxing agencies pursuant to Sections 33607.5 and
33607.7 of Health and Safety Code or similar statutes requiring such payments,as those
statutes read on January 1, 2008:or (ii)for the purpose of increasing, improving, and preserving
the supply of low and moderate income housing available at affordable housing cost.
(b) For purposes of this section,the following definitions apply:
(1) "Ad valorem property tax revenues" means all revenues derived from the tax
collected by a county under subdivision (a) of Section 1 of Article XIII A, regardless of any of this
revenue being otherwise classified by statute.
(2) "Local agency" has the same meaning as specified in Section 95 of the Revenue and
Taxation Code as that section read on November 3, 2004.

necessary to restore the fund or account from which the revenues were unlawfully taken or
diverted to its financial status had the unlawful action not been taken.

Article XIII of this Constitution is successful either by way of a final judgment, settlement, or
resolution by administrative or legislative action,there is hereby continuously appropriated

Section Nine.
Section 16 of Article XVI of the Constitution requires that a specified portion of the
taxes levied upon the taxable property in a redevelopment project each year be allocated to
the redevelopment agency to repay indebtedness incurred for the purpose of eliminating blight
within the redevelopment project area. Section 16 of Article XVI prohibits the Legislature from
reallocating some or that entire specified portion of the taxes to the State, an agency of the
State, or any other taxing jurisdiction, instead of to the redevelopment agency. The Legislature
has been illegally circumventing Section 16 of Article XVI in recent years by requiring
redevelopment agencies to transfer a portion of those taxes for purposes other than the
financing of redevelopment projects. A purpose of the amendments made by this measure is to
prohibit the Legislature from requiring, after the taxes have been allocated to a redevelopment
agency, that the redevelopment agency transfer some or all of those taxes to the State, an
agency of the State, or a jurisdiction; or use some or all of those taxes for the benefit of the
State, an agency of the State, or a jurisdiction.
Section Ten. Continuous Appropriations.
17
The provisions of Sections 6, 7, and 8 of this Act that require a continuous appropriation to the
Controller without regard to fiscal year are intended to be "appropriations made by law" within the
meaning of Section 7 of Article XVI of the California Constitution.
Section Eleven. Liberal Construction.
The provisions of this Act shall be liberally construed in order to effectuate its purposes.
Section Twelve. Conflicting Statutes.
Any statute passed by the Legislature between October 21, 2009 and the effective date
of this measure, that would have been prohibited if this measure were in effect on the date it
was enacted, is hereby repealed.
Section Thirteen. Conflicting Ballot Measures.
In the event that this measure and another measure or measures relating to the
direction or redirection of revenues dedicated to funding services provided by local
governments and/or transportation projects or services appear on the same statewide election
ballot, the provisions of the other measure or measures shall be deemed to be in conflict with
this measure. In the event that this measure shall receive a greater number of affirmative
votes, the provisions of this measure shall prevail in their entirety, and the provisions of the
other measure or measures shall be null and void.
Section Fourteen. Severability.
It is the intent of the People that the provisions of this Act are severable and that if any
provision of this Act or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, is held invalid,
such invalidity shall not affect any other provision or application of this Act which can be given
effect without the invalid provision or application.

CITIES
TO: City Officials
FROM: Chris McKenzie, Executive Director
DATE: November 9, 2009
RE: Update on League-Supported Revenue Protection Measure; Other"Reform"
Measures Emerge
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Now that the Secretary of State's recommended deadline has come
and gone for the filing of initiative ballot measures for the November 2010 ballot, the work of
two other groups, California Forward and Repair California, may get confused with the League-
supported initiative. The purpose of this memo is to provide you with some basic background on
the measures. Since it has already been unanimously supported by the League General
Assembly at the League's Annual Conference in September, city officials may want to pass
resolutions of support for the League-sponsored measure (see below) when you are ready. Your
Regional Public Affairs Manager can give you a copy of a sample resolution. However, we urge
your city not to take a formal position on any of the other measures until they have been
reviewed and acted on early next year by the relevant League policy committees and the League
board of directors.
League-Supported Ballot Measure
The League, the California Alliance for Jobs, and the California Transit Association filed two
similar versions of the Local Taxpayer, Public Safety, and Transportation Protection Act of
2010 with the Attorney General on Tuesday, October 20, 2009. In early December, after receipt
of the Attorney General's Title and Summary for the measure, the campaign may proceed with
collecting the more than one million signatures necessary to qualify a constitutional amendment
for the statewide ballot. During the period leading up to mid-December League staff and city
officials are working with our coalition partners to lay the groundwork for a successful signature
gathering and fundraising effort. The board will be asking the membership for input before
beginning the next stage of the campaign. Here is what the measure covers:
Key Provisions Local Taxpayer,Public Safety and Transportation Protection Act of 2010
Protects Locally Imposed Yes.Legislature may not take or borrow or direct how local taxes may be spent.
Taxes(e.g.,parcel UUT, Property tax treated under Art.XIII,Sec.25.5.

Prohibits Reallocation of Yes.
Prop.Tax or VLF to Pay
for State Mandates
Prohibits Borrowing or Yes,and provides same protections to any replacement revenues and requires
Stealing of the HUTA hearings and study before state and local shares changed.
Gas Tax?
Key Provisions Local Taxpayer,Public Safety and Transportation Protection Act of 2010
Prohibits Borrowing or Yes,and provides same protections to any replacement revenues and requires
Stealing of Prop.42 Gas hearings and study before state and local shares changed.

Prohibits Borrowing or Yes.Also restricts use of PTA revenues for transportation planning and mass
Stealing of Public Transit transportation purposes only and requires"Spillover"sales tax to be deposited into
Account PTA funds? the PTA ands lit evenly between State and local transportation agencies.
Prohibits Taking, Yes.Prohibits state from requiring RDAs to pay tax increment to a state or another
Borrowing or Directing local agency or require an agency to use its tax increment for any State purpose,
Spending of RDA Funds? except affordable housing andpass-through payments.
Remedy if State Violates Yes. If court finds state has taken funds illegally,repayment is continuously
Constitution and appropriated to repay amount taken illegally.
Repayment Due?
Repeal of Conflicting Yes.Any conflicting statute enacted between Oct.21,2009 and November 2,2010
Statutes? is automatically repealed.
California Forward
California Forward is a government reform organization now headed by former Assembly
Speaker Bob Hertzberg. It recently filed two initiative ballot measures:
(1) State Budget Reform. The first measure includes state fiscal reforms, such as lowering the
vote threshold to a simple majority to approve a state budget, performance based budgeting
and restrictions on use of one-time spikes in revenues; and
(2) New Countywide Sales Tax and Limited Local Government Revenue Protections. The
second measure would:
a. Additional Local Sales Tax; Redistribution of Local Government Revenues. Authorize
a new one-cent sales tax at the county level—approved by a simple majority vote of
the local electorate—to support schools, cities, counties and special districts to
implement a new countywide strategic plan. If the tax is approved, cities and counties
would be required to transfer to schools the equivalent of 50% of the new sales tax
they receive from their existing property tax, sales tax, etc. in accordance with a plan
adopted by the county.
b. Local Revenue Protections. League attorneys are still studying the CA Forward
measure to determine the scope of the local revenue protections it would provide. But
upon initial review it's clear the measure provides no protections against state
borrowing of the HUTA gas tax and public transit funding, and it also appears to
allow continued borrowing of city property taxes. (In contrast, the League-supported
measure explicitly prohibits State borrowing of local property taxes, HUTA and
public transit funds and repeals the existing constitutional provisions allowing it).
Unlike the League-supported measure, CA Forward measure does not contain
language that would repeal any new legislation --passed between now and November
2010--that would take the revenues protected by the measure.
2
Repair California
Repair California, the group advocating for calling a Constitutional Convention, led by the Bay
Area Council, recently filed two initiative ballot measures as follows:
(1) Voter-Called Constitutional Conventions. The first measure amends the constitution to allow
the voters to call a constitutional convention every 10 years by initiative and to limit the
issues the convention can discuss; and
(2) Call for Convention. The second is a statutory measure that calls the convention and limits
the subjects of discussion and action to: (a) Government Effectiveness, (b) Elections and
Reduction of Special Interest Influence, (c) Spending and Budgeting,and Governance.
a. How Delegates Will Be Chosen. Approximately half would be chosen at the county
level by committees made up of county supervisors (2), city officials in counties with
cities (mayors who are chair and vice chair of city selection committee), and school
districts (1). The other half would consist of three delegates elected from each
Assembly district from a group of 50 potential delegates in each Assembly district
that was randomly chosen by the State Auditor from a pool of 400 possible delegates
randomly chosen by the State Auditor in each Assembly district. Delegates are not
required to be registered voters.
b. Role of the FPPC. The appointed Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) that
currently enforces the Political Reform Act would serve as the Constitutional
Convention Commission, an influential steering committee responsible for deciding
all matters concerning delegate qualifications, hiring the Clerk of the Commission,
determining the place and date of the meeting of the Convention, training the
delegates,and overseeing all other matters.
The next few months will tell whether these measures go into circulation for signatures.
What's Next?
We invite you to help us in our pre-signature gathering effort for the Local Taxpayer, Public
Safety, and Transportation Protection Act of 2010. When your Regional Representative calls
you, please respond and lend a hand. Our success depends on your leadership. Using your
personal computer,you can find additional information at hgp:Hsavelocalservices.com/.
What About Passing City Resolutions?
Since it has already been unanimously supported by the League General Assembly at the
September Annual Conference, city officials are encouraged to pass resolutions of support for
the League-supported measure when you are ready. Your Regional Public Affairs Manager can
give you a copy. Since the ballot measures proposed by California Forward and Repair
California have not been analyzed or acted upon by the League policy committees or board of
directors, we recommend that you delay any action on the other measures until they have been
reviewed and acted on early next year by the relevant League policy committees and the League
board of directors.

IN SUPPORT OF THE LOCAL TAXPAYER,PUBLIC SAFETY AND
TRANSPORTATION PROTECTION ACT OF 2010
WHEREAS, California voters have repeatedly and overwhelmingly passed separate ballot
measures to stop State raids of local government funds, and to dedicate the taxes on gasoline to fund
local and state transportation improvement projects; and
WHEREAS,these local government funds are critical to provide the police and fire, emergency
response,parks, libraries, and other vital local services that residents rely upon every day, and gas tax
funds are vital to maintain and improve local streets and roads,to make road safety improvements,
relieve traffic congestion, and provide mass transit; and
WHEREAS,despite the fact that voters have repeatedly passed measures to prevent the State
from taking these revenues dedicated to funding local government services and transportation
improvement projects,the State Legislature has seized and borrowed billions of dollars in local
government and transportation funds in the past few years; and
WHEREAS,this year's borrowing and raids of local government,redevelopment and transit
funds, as well as previous, ongoing raids of local government and transportation funds have lead to
severe consequences for cities, such as layoffs of police, fire and paramedic first responders, fire station
closures, stalled economic development,healthcare cutbacks, delays in road safety improvements,
public transit fare increases and cutbacks in public transit services; and
WHEREAS, State politicians in Sacramento have continued to ignore the will of the voters, and

APPROVED BY
FROM: Jesus Nava, Finance Director
558-7222
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PROPOSITION 218 RATE SETTING
PROCESS FOR THE 2010 SOLID WASTE RATE YEAR
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Proposition 218 notice of public hearing and rate
adjustment process for solid waste services.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Burlingame follows the Proposition 218 process for adjusting solid waste fees. It requires
that a formal notice be mailed to all affected customers. The notice will be mailed by Allied Waste on
Monday,November 30, 2009. The recommended increase to solid waste rates for the 2010 rate year
is six percent (6.0%). The rate adjustment is effective February 1, 2010.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The new rates are necessary based on the terms of the franchise agreement between the City of
Burlingame and Allied Waste Industries,which requires that rates be set to cover direct and pass-through
costs and give the contractor a rate of return based on an approved cost proposal. The approved increase
in contractor's costs will have a total rate impact of+1.6%.
Annual landfill closure costs associated with the former city landfill are proposed to be financed through
the city's solid waste rates. These costs have been paid for in prior years by solid waste franchise fees
which are a general fund revenue source. The landfill closure costs are mandated by federal and state
law. The $200,000 in on-going, annual costs result in a rate increase of+2.8%.
The annual costs of steam cleaning the city-owned waste and recycling containers and litter abatement in
the city's commercial areas have increased from$55,000 to $75,000. This expense has been part of the
solid waste rates but has not been increased to reflect changes in the city's costs. The $20,000 increase
results in a rate impact of+0.4%.
Finally, an increase is needed to recover the city's costs of administering the franchise and the SBWMA
JPA in addition to providing city-sponsored waste reduction activities. The city assesses a two percent
(2%) charge for administration and waste reduction activities. The rate impact of the two-percent(2%)
charge is+1%.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER AN INCREASE IN
SOLID WASTE AND RECYCLING RATES FOR 2010 AND TO
CONSIDER ANY PROTESTS TO INCREASED RATES
The City Council of the City of Burlingame hereby gives notice of its intent to review and consider
approval of increases to the existing residential and commercial rates charged by the City's solid waste
franchisee, Allied Waste Industries, for the collection of solid waste and recyclable materials within the
City of Burlingame. The City Council plans to review and consider this rate increase at a public hearing
scheduled for Tuesday,January 19,2010 at 7:00 p.m. at the Burlingame City Hall.
The need for this increase has been comprehensively discussed by the South Bayside Waste Management
Authority(SBWMA) Board of Directors based on the final report entitled,Review of Allied Waste
Industries'Refuse, Recyclable, and Plant Materials Collection Rate Application for 2010(prepared by
HF&H Consultants, LLC). The City of Burlingame is a member of the SBWMA and along with the other
11 public agencies has a uniform franchise agreement with Allied Waste Industries. A copy of the report
is available for public inspection at the Office of the City Clerk, City Hall, 501 Primrose Road,
Burlingame, during regular business hours, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday.

NECESSITY FOR THE NEW RATES
The new rates are necessary based on the terms of the existing franchise agreement between the City of
Burlingame and Allied Waste Industries, which provides that rates be set to cover direct costs and pass-
through costs and give the solid waste contractor a rate of return based on an approved cost proposal. As
detailed in the HF&H report, the increase in contractor's costs will have a total rate impact of+1.6%.
Annual landfill closure costs associated with the former City of Burlingame landfill are proposed to be
financed through the city's solid waste rates. These costs have been paid for in prior years by solid waste
franchise fees which are a general fund revenue source. The landfill closure costs are mandated by
federal and state law. The $200,000 in on-going, annual costs result in a rate increase of+2.8%.
The annual costs of steam cleaning the city-owned waste and recycling containers and litter abatement in
the city's commercial districts have increased from $55,000 to $75,000. This cost has been part of the
solid waste rates but has not been increased to cover the costs of the service. The $20,000 increase results
in a rate impact of+0.4%.
Finally, an increase is necessary to enable the City of Burlingame to recover its costs of administering the
city's solid waste franchise and the SBWMA joint powers agreement in addition to providing city-
sponsored waste reduction activities. The city assesses a two percent(2%)per year charge for
administration and waste reduction activities. The rate impact of the two-percent(2%)charge is+1%.

B. Foundation Report
1. Board Changes - Kitty Mullooly of Hillsborough and Audrey
Bojack of Burlingame have been elected to serve on the
Foundation Board for a two year term. Kitty has served on the
Town Council of Hillsborough for 16 years; Audrey is an attorney

and as a CPA for Richard Dwyer and Cbmpany and will continue
to prepare the Foundation's tax return.
2. Planned Giving- President Hamilton has formed a Planned
Giving Committee to prepare a document that will make it
possible for donors to leave money or property to the Foundation
for the benefit of the Library. Attorneys Cynthia Schreurs and
Laurelle Gutierrez and Financial Planner Michael Ma are working
with the committee in an advisory capacity.
VII. Unfinished Business
A. Centennial Status
Plans are in place for the Centennial event to be held October 18th from
noon to 3:60pm. The Burlingame Library Foundation is underwriting
the event. Approximately 300 people are expected to attend. On the
day of the event, Mayor Ann Keighran will read a Proclamation from the
City Council re-dedicating the Burlingame Public Library for the next
100 years.
B. New Service Model (Defined)
The City Librarian reviewed the 4 phases of the Joint Service Desk.
Phase I "Circulation and Reference Service Combine" and Phase II
"Increase in Self Service Options to the Public" have been implemented.
Phase III " Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)" is a long range plan
that will be coordinated with other PLS libraries. The first step in this
program could begin in spring of 2010. RFID will require special
hardware and software which will then require a revamping of the main
floor. Phase IV "Re-Engineering of the Main Floor" is based on the
premise of placing less emphasis on the "service desk" concept and
more emphasis on technology in order to save money. Managers are
working with Wayne Gehrke of Group 4 Architecture and Planning to
brainstorm ideas of how to change the foot print of the main floor.

Library Centennial Wrapped Up on Sunday!
With the help of the Trustees, Foundation and staff a festive Centennial event was
planned for October 18, 2009. My thanks to everyone who worked to make it a
success!
40th Public Relations Award Received
The Library was the recipient of our 40th public relations award in July from the
American Library Association. Congratulations to our staff, particularly Maryam
Refahi our graphic artist, for this outstanding achievement!
One Book, One Community
The 4th annual One Book event was chaired by Linda Santo, marking our 4th year of
intense involvement in this PLS project. The author was Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
and her book "Mistress of Spices." She shared the stage with moderator Sandip Roy, a
journalist and radio personality for KALW- FM 91.7. The pair provided an excellent
program, delving into Indian culture both in the Bay Area and abroad. Attendance was
about 700 people.
I was pleased to announce next year's author at the event: Michael Chabon, author of
"The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay,"as well as many other novels, will
appear in October 2010.
2009 One Book Events for Burlingame Library
In addition to a host of programs to be held at other libraries in PLS during the month
Burlingame will host:
• Foods of India, Wednesday, October 14, 7 PM
• Budget Travel in India, Thursday, October 15, 7 PM
• Movie: Monsoon Wedding, Thursday, October 22, 7 PM
• Holistic Henna, Tuesday, October 27, 7 PM
Hillsborough Library Services Contract
The figures for the Hillsborough Library Services contract have been confirmed for the
fiscal year. The per capita average'for PLS libraries for fiscal 2008-2009 was $67.13.
Burlingame will be paid at this rate for a total of$ 499,447 for the year. This is a 2%

increase in contract cost. San Mateo's reimbursement is less as their per capita
support is below the PLS average, so they are paid at their per capita cost of$ 54.80.
Foundation Report
The Library Foundation is completing work on a Planned Giving Program with the help
of several local attorneys and a financial planner. The program will cover all aspects of
gifts including real estate, cash, stocks, etc. This is an important step in the life of the
Foundation and one I applaud.
The Foundation is also planning a Children's Holiday Tea for December 2010. The Tea
will be held locally, perhaps at Easton, as a fundraiser and will feature a children's
author.
The Foundation Fall Book Sale netted$5,800 this month. While this is less than the
last sale of$ 6,500, it is nevertheless an excellent fundraising effort. Online book sales
have increased, with the total of all book sales expected to top $ 40,000 this year.
Tech Talks
The popular Tech Talks programs will begin a new series this fall on the 4th Wednesday
of the month, with the following:
• Digital Photo Sharing Online, October 28th, 7 PM
• Tips for Organizing your Computer Files, November 25th, 3:30 PM
• Smart Phones, December 23, 7 PM
Special Program for Children this Fall:
• Just Baby and Me, November 6 & December 4, 10:30 AM
• Halloween Story Time, Monday October 26th, 7 PM
And don't forget our on-going Story Times, 5 days a week. We dropped the Saturday
Story Times due to budget constraints.
Ergonomics Overview
Staff is working with Group 4 Architecture on options for a temporary service desk to
help relieve some of the poor ergonomics of the Joint Service Desk. Sketches will be
available shortly. Pat Harding is working with representatives from Ross McDonald to
obtain a cabinetmaker to do the work. We hope to implement the changes in the next
few months.
Pat Harding and Amy Gettle are working together on bi-weekly meetings with the
circulation and reference staff on joint service issues.

Council Candidate Orientation
The City Librarian was part of the Council Candidate Orientation on September 25th.
This event is designed to acquaint Council candidates with the issues in each
department of the city.
Staff Recognition Dinner becomes a Potluck
As you know, the Staff Recognition Dinner has been canceled this year. I appreciate
the Foundation and Trustees honoring my recommendation. Instead, we will have a
Holiday Potluck Dinner on Friday, December 4, 5 PM at the main library. We are still in
the planning stages, but the evening will include the annual Employee Achievement
Awards, along with a buffet dinner. Vicki and Manuel have agreed to offer
entertainment.
This is the same evening as the Holiday Tree Lighting, but there will be plenty of time
for those who would like to attend this event at City Hall to come to the Library
Potluck.
Holiday Closures Extended
Holiday closures will be longer this year due to budget constraints:
• Thanksgiving. Closed Wednesday, November 25th, 5 PM; Closed Thursday and
Friday, November 26 & 27th, Reopen Saturday, November 28th.

Re-opening Monday, December 28th.
• New Year's Holiday: Closed Thursday, December 31st- Sunday, January 3rd,
Re-opening Monday, January 4th.
Retirement of City Librarian
I have announced my retirement as City Librarian (or Chapter 2 as I prefer to call it!)
effective December 18, 2009. 1 make this decision with mixed feelings, as the
Burlingame Library has been a big part of my life for nearly 40 years. We've been
through a lot together: earthquake (1989), flood (2003), moves to a new location (1995,
1997), construction of a new main library (1997), and reconstruction of the Easton
Branch (2004).
With the leadership of the Trustees, we were the first library in PLS to establish a
Foundation (1994) to help support library services. The Foundation has been a unique
partner in helping with the "bricks & mortar" of library construction, but also for the
ongoing support of the library's collections, services and children's programs.
We are all proud of the 40 national awards the library has received for public
relations, along with cover stories in American Libraries and Library Journal.
3
This year we wrap up the celebration of our Centennial year and re-dedicate the
library for the next 100 years. Burlingame Library ranks among the top 10% of
libraries in California. I think our lions "Wisdom" and "Wonder" would smile!
It has been a privilege to serve as Burlingame's fifth City Librarian.
Recruitment for Replacement
Effective immediately, the City Manager will launch recruitment for City Librarian.
Upcoming Events:
• 18 October, Library Centennial, Noon- 3 PM
• 20 October, Library Board Meeting, 5:30 PM
• 12 November, Foundation Board Meeting, 5:30 PM
• 11 November, Veteran's Day, Closed
• 17 November, Library Board Meeting, 5:30 PM

CITY OF BURLINGAME PLANNING COMMISSION— Unapproved Minutes October 26, 2009
VII. ACTION ITEMS
Consent Calendar - Items on the Consent Calendar are considered to be routine. They are acted upon
simultaneously unless separate discussion and/or action is requested by the applicant, a member of the
public or a Commissioner prior to the time the Commission votes on the motion to adopt.
Chair Terrones asked if anyone in the audience or on the Commission wished to call any item off the
consent calendar. Item 1 (12 Vista Lane) was pulled from the Consent Calendar and moved to the Regular
Action Calendar since action on the item requires a roll call vote of the Commissioners. There were no
other Consent Calendar items.
VIII. REGULAR ACTION ITEMS
1. 12 VISTA LANE — ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION MEMORIALIZING THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S
OCTOBER 13, 2009 ACTION RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL,APPROVAL OFA VARIANCE
FOR LOT FRONTAGE AND TENTATIVE AND FINAL PARCEL MAP APPROVAL FOR PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 12 VISTA LANE; STAFF CONTACT: WILLIAM MEEKER
Community Development Director Meeker and City Attorney Guinan noted that the Commission is simply
considering adoption of a resolution that memorializes its October 13, 2009 actions approving the requests
for a Variance and Parcel Map. A public hearing is not required, nor has the matter been noticed as a
public hearing; in fact, consideration of the resolution is not an opportunity for Commissioners to change
positions regarding the actions, add additional findings, or solicit additional public comment; the
Commission should only review the findings in the resolution and confirm the accuracy of the findings in
support of the Commission's majority action. Reconsideration of the matter would require a new, duly
noticed public hearing.
Commissioner A uran moved to adopt the resolution memorializing the Planning Commission's October 13,
2009 action recommending to the City Council, approval of a Variance for lot frontage and Tentative and
Final Parcel Map approval for property located at 12 Vista Lane.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Yie.
Discussion of motion:
None.
Chair Terrones called for a roll call vote on the motion to adopt the resolution. The motion passed 4-3
(Commissioners Brownrigg, Cauchi and Terrones dissenting). The Planning Commission's action is
advisory and not appealable.
At the request of Mark Bender, 520 South EI Camino Real, San Mateo; representing owners of 16 Vista
Lane;the following public comments were accepted "from the floor"regarding the resolution memorializing
the Commission's action regarding 12 Vista Lane:
■ The findings do not provide an adequate explanation of the substantial property right demonstrated
to support approval of the Variance from lot frontage requirements associated with the Parcel Map.
■ The findings do not adequately demonstrate the existence of a hardship to warrant approval of the
requested Variance; in fact, several Commissioners indicated that the applicant had created a self-
imposed hardship.

2. 843 CROSSWAY ROAD, ZONED R-1 — APPLICATION FOR DESIGN REVIEW AND FLOOR AREA
RATIO VARIANCE FOR A FIRST AND SECOND STORYADDITION TOA SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING
(REBECCA AMATO, AMATO ARCHITECTURE, APPLICANT AND ARCHITECT; AND WHITNEY AND
DENIS MURPHY, PROPERTY OWNERS) STAFF CONTACT: ERICA STROHMEIER
Reference staff report dated October 26, 2009,with attachments. Planning Manager Brooks presented the
report, reviewed criteria and staff comments. Thirteen (13) conditions were suggested for consideration.
Chair Terrones opened the public hearing.
Commission comments:
■ Clarified the differences in the floor area calculations for the project; what is calculated as living
space by the Planning Division is somewhat different from habitable space as determined by the
Building Division.
Rebecca Amato, project architect, 668 Fairmount Avenue, Oakland; represented the applicant.
■ Are reducing the mass and bulk of the structure through removal of a portion of the structure and
converting existing space within the building envelope into habitable space.
■ Have made modifications to the design to reflect the Commission's direction from the study meeting;
however, the Juliet balcony has not been expanded; the owners wish to maintain the privacy with
their existing neighbors.
■ Are attempting to restore the original architectural details of the home.
Additional Commission comments:
■ Clarified that the existing attic space is being converted to living space.
■ On the east elevation, under the Juliet balcony; is there more detail available regarding the windows
and doors? (Amato — all of the windows will be replaced in the structure; will be installing
decorative, divided light windows. Grid windows will be provided at the top; owners want the
windows to be kept fairly open to enhance views into the courtyard.)
■ Is leaded glass proposed on the window on the east side elevation, near the front? (Amato—yes.)
Concerned that the window will not be structurally sound; would like detail submitted to the
Commission as an FYI.
Public comments:
None.
There were no further comments and the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Brownrigg moved to approve the application, by resolution, based upon the following
findings: that floor area ratio(FAR)is an imperfect measurement used to constrain overly massive or bulky
homes; in this instance, bulk and mass is being removed from the structure, existing attic space is being
converted to living space without adding to the mass;the existing below grade space which counts in floor
area does not contribute to the mass, and also the rear elevation is being enhanced with the changes; will
look less massive when complete;additionally, the lot coverage is being reduced. Approval shall be subject
to the following conditions:
3

■ The project does not increase the truly increase the structure's footprint on the property.
■ The slope of the lot creates an additional hardship affecting the areas that are counted towards
FAR.
■ The existing home is situated on a corner lot and was built prior to current FAR restrictions.

Meeker presented the report, reviewed criteria and staff comments.
Chair Terrones opened the public hearing.
Commission comments:
■ Requested clarification regarding the impact of the sunset clause upon valid approvals. (Meeker—
existing approvals would be permitted to run their term.)
■ Would a two year initial term have caused the City Council to adopt the amendment without a sunset
clause? (Meeker/Guinan —didn't appear likely.)
Public comments:
Pat Giorni, 1445 Balboa Avenue; spoke:
■ Thought that the initial term should be a two year period.
■ The whole idea of the change is based upon economic conditions.
■ Doesn't see a problem with the sunset clause.
There were no further comments and the public hearing was closed.

IX. DESIGN REVIEW STUDY ITEMS
4. 107 LOMA VISTA DRIVE,ZONED R-1 —APPLICATION FOR DESIGN REVIEW FOR A FIRST AND
SECOND STORY ADDITION TO A SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING(UNA KINSELLA,APPLICANT AND
ARCHITECT;AND DAVID AND DIANNE WILLOUGHBY, PROPERTY OWNERS)STAFF CONTACT:
ERICA STROHMEIER
Reference staff report dated October 26, 2009, with attachments. Planning Manager Brooks briefly
presented the project description. There were no questions of staff.
Chair Terrones opened the public comment period.
Commission comments:
• Where is the fourth bedroom? (Brooks—the den is considered to be the fourth bedroom.)
David Willoughby, 107 Loma Vista Drive and Una Kinsella, 1033 Paloma Avenue; represented the
applicant.
Additional Commission comments:
Provide improved descriptions of trim details and finishing materials.
• Nice design;appropriate for the neighborhood.
Wood-clad windows are called out; are they metal or vinyl clad? (Kinsella—has not yet been
determined,depends upon the manufacturer and property owners'choice.)Vinyl-clad windows are
strongly discouraged.
Having a master bedroom downstairs can be a problem for re-sale;has any thought been given to
this? (Willoughby—have thought it through;is what he desires;plan to retire in the house.)
Is the semi-circle above the windows a stucco piece? (Kinsella—to keep the budget in line,have
chosen square-top windows with an arched detail above the windows,in lieu of arched windows;
could be a wood detail,would not be foam.) Call out the detail on the final plans.
•
What is envisioned below the water table? (Kinsella—likely to be a stucco band,and will return on
the sides where visible from the street.)
Requested clarification regarding the cantilevered window seat on the second floor. (Kinsella—will
likely be a high window sill,rather than a window seat. Widened the wall to improve the proportion.
The room is actually narrower.)
6
CITY OF BURLINGAME PLANNING COMMISSION — Unapproved Minutes October 26, 2009
• On right elevation, what can be done with the second floor closet? (Kinsella — was attempting to
prepare an efficient framing plan; didn't want the room to appear wider than needed; though the
symmetry of the windows on either side would work. Feels it is placed far enough back that it will
not be seen from the street, particularly with the landscaping in place.)
■ On the master bathroom; could move the toilet closer to the wall. Would not have the shower door
opening toward the toilet. (Kinsella — interior details will be worked out as the design is being
finalized.)
■ Is the tree along the side existing? (Kinsella — will be a new planting.)
■ Perhaps install a small window in the closet; could enhance the design.
• Call out the window materials and the material used for the decorative features above the windows.
■ Look at the staircase window; appears a bit large for the front elevation.
■ Provide details of finishing, particularly the trellis columns, porch columns, and other features.
■ Take the water table around the side elevations to finish off the design.
Public comments:
Pat Giorni, 1445 Balboa Avenue; spoke:
■ The applicants have exhibited great sensitivity to the neighbors.
■ Impressed that the remodel falls 250 square feet below the maximum FAR.
• Good looking project.
There were no other comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed.

FOR HEIGHT AND DECLINING HEIGHT ENVELOPE FOR A FIRST AND SECOND STORY ADDITION
QUALIFYING AS SUBSTANTIAL CONSTRUCTION (JAMES CHU, CHU DESIGN & ENGR., INC.,
APPLICANT AND DESIGNER; AND JAY TRYGSTAD AND THERESA HEI, PROPERTY OWNERS)
STAFF CONTACT: ERICA STROHMEIER
Reference staff report dated October 26, 2009, with attachments. Community Development Director
Meeker briefly presented the project description. There were no questions of staff.
Chair Terrones opened the public comment period.
James Chu, 55 West 43rd Avenue, San Mateo; represented the applicant.
■ Have totally redesigned the layout of the home, and provided a new look.
7
CITY OF BURLINGAME PLANNING COMMISSION—Unapproved Minutes October 26,2009
• The Special Permit requested is common for this type of home;the new home is only 2.5 feet taller
than the existing home.
• Are intending to upgrade all electrical and plumbing.
Commission comments:
•
Where is the closet for bedroom one? (Chu—there is no closet.)
• There is a large row of Oaks trees in the easement behind the house;landscape plan proposes a
couple of Laurel trees;doesn't think that massive planting is required if the Oaks are remaining in
place. (Chu—the Oaks will remain.)
Public comments:
Angela Valles,1437 Balboa Avenue and Pat Giorni,1445 Balboa Avenue;spoke:
• The proposed footprint will place the structure 4.3 feet closer to property at 1437 Balboa Avenue;
the driveway will be placed against the fence.
The proposed six-foot fence will be unattractive and will obstruct views of the sidewalk and street
when exiting the driveway;the fence should not extend past the gate on the adjacent property at
1437 Balboa Avenue.
• The driveway will be narrower and less likely to be used by the property owner.
• The proposed curb cut will extend past the property line into the property at 1437 Balboa Avenue.
• The fire hydrant exists near the neighboring property;will it be relocated,or will no-parking area be
extended?
The fence at the rear of the property,near the garage,needs to remain at its current location;the
neighbor bought her property with this condition existing.
• The larger home will impact light and sky views from the adjacent properties;the additional chimney
is unnecessary and impacts light to the adjacent property.
• The additional height will affect the character of the neighborhood.
The proposed home is"cookie cutter;the design is not someone's dream home;is a spec home.
• Will remove another affordable house from the market.
The second-floor balcony will affect the neighbor's privacy at 1437 Balboa Avenue.
Nice design;but needs a bit of work.
Impressed that the project falls below the maximum FAR.
• Believes that once work begins there will be a lot of replacement of walls occurring due to deferred
maintenance over the years;second floor walls will likely all need to be replaced.
• For all intents and purposes,will be a new house due to the deteriorated condition of the existing
home.
The fence adjacent to 1445 Balboa Avenue should be rebuilt exactly as it stands currently;the
garage at 1445 Balboa Avenue is off-set by one-foot and the land in this area has effectively been
used by the neighbors;and can continue to be used in that manner.
• Prefer that there is no lattice on top of the fence;maintain the fence at a six-foot height.
• Have the six-foot fence extend along the driveway and stop at the existing gate post.
• Requested that if the hedge is replaced;but not with a fence;replace with landscaping.
• Beyond the hedge is a picket fence that was installed about 15-years ago;but was previously a
shared piece of lawn;is willing to get rid of plantings in that area,replaced with a grass strip if the
property owners wish.
The PG&E pole is on the property line between 1441 and 1445 Balboa Avenue;there is lawn to be
maintained on both sides of the pole.

■ When rebuilding the fence; the finished side is normallyfacing 1445 Balboa Avenue; however, when
rebuilt 10-years ago, the unfinished side faced 1441 Balboa Avenue. When the fence is rebuiltwant
the grape stakes to be salvaged on the 1445 side so that they can be reinstalled.
■ During the fence construction; when concrete is placed in the ground, install a two to three-inch
collar above ground to protect the wood post against rot; should be a condition of approval.
■ The Laurel trees are not appropriate under the Oaks; the Oaks cannot be touched without City
approval, since they are on City property; they also appear to be heritage trees; they are currently
maintained by PG&E. The Oaks provide privacy to adjacent properties.
■ The Laurel trees can grow to at least 30-feet with a 15 to 20-foot spread; inappropriate for the area.
■ The Arborist indicated that the street tree is to be replaced; Balboa Avenue is going through a
discussion at the Beautification Commission for a tree theme; Catalpas are being requested.
Dogwood trees are inappropriate for the area at the front of the property; will also obstruct views
when leaving the driveway.
■ The Magnolia tree at the other side of the front of the property is also inappropriate; can grow to 80-
feet with a 40-foot spread; will ultimately block the sun to a number of homes.
■ Provide tree protection for the birch trees on the property at 1445 Balboa Avenue.
■ The porch should run the entire width of the front of the house; suggest that the front door
remain at its current location.
■ A sidewalk through the front lawn is not necessary; most homes in the area gain access to their
porches from the driveway; this approach should continue.
■ Remove the left side chimney; it is only a gas vented fireplace; perhaps extend the roof
overhang in this area.
■ Questioned the need for four and one-half bathrooms, not sustainable; consider removing the Y2
bath on the first floor; the space occupied by the powder room can be captured by the closet and
the foyer.
■ The kitchen is far removed from the dining room; does not appear to be a practical flow; could
switch the stairway with the dining room.
■ The nook off of the family room could be removed; could eliminate deck impacts from the
second floor.
■ Ensure that the utilities are quiet, even though they are to be on the opposite side of the house.
■ A nine and one-half foot wide driveway is not enough; no one will park deeper into the driveway,
people will not move past the gate.
■ The dumpster should be placed on the property during construction in order to protect the street;
should be a condition of approval.
Additional comments from the applicant:
■ Sent the neighbor a copy of the plans prior to submitting to the City, but did not respond.
■ The driveway is 11 -feet wide, where a nine and one-half foot wide driveway is allowed.
■ Concurs with the need to have the fence stop at the gate to permit views of street and sidewalk.
■ The balcony is small, less than 60 square feet; not intended for group gatherings; privacy issues
work both ways; could be mitigated with landscaping.
■ Is almost a new home; are forced to replace all ceiling joists and replace with floor joists.
■ Is a private residence; not being built for re-sale.
■ Will try to work out issues with the neighbors; particularly with respect to fencing and
landscaping.
Additional Commission comments:
■ Nice project.
■ Work with the neighbors regarding fencing and landscaping details.
9
CITY OF BURLINGAME PLANNING COMMISSION— Unapproved Minutes October 26, 2009
• Be aware of any issues with the Beautification Commission; particularly regarding the street
trees.
■ Regarding the nook in the kitchen; pretty small, not large enough for a table and chairs. Could it
be extended, and create a sitting room on the second floor, could be a compromise to protect
neighbor's privacy from a balcony upstairs? (Chu —will consider.)
■ If the porch at the rear is "pulled back", could result in changes that improve the usability of the
rear yard.
■ Agrees with neighbor regarding extension of the front porch across the front of the house. (Chu
—will look into this matter.)
• Agree with the comments regarding the fence heights.
■ With respect to gates; should be automatic if provided; they never seem to work; usually
impedes the use of the driveway.
■ Like the powder room in the front.
■ Neighbor's points are not insurmountable.
■ Regarding the balcony off of the rear; a concern if it invades neighbor's privacy; important to
consider.
■ Consider neighbor comments regarding the trees, Magnolia and Dogwood may not be good
choices in the front yard.
■ Look at using a permeable surface for the patio.
• Might prefer a pocket door at the powder room.
■ Make sure that there is tree protection for the Birch trees on the neighbor's property.
■ Revisit the chimney on the south side of the home, adjacent to 1437 Balboa; doesn't appear
critical to that elevation.
■ Provide more detail regarding the stone veneer.
■ Extending the porch across the front could better ground the house.
■ Landscape architect will need to review the plant materials in the rear given the presence of the
Oak trees.
■ Appreciates the way that the mass of the home has been centered on the lot.
■ Like the front door at its current location.
■ Like having a walkway provided to the front door.
■ The Oak trees establish a scale for landscaping at the rear of the property; is a nice feature of
the neighborhood.
There were no other comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed.
