Commissioners ADDENDUM TO PUBLIC ACCESS GUIDELINES FOR THE ANZA AREA, BURLINGAME We the below signed members of the Burlingame Beautification Commission recommend that the Burlingame City Council adopt the shoreline improvement guidelines listed below, for all current and future development proposals along our Waterfront, adjacent lagoon, and Channel areas. We have a vision and are setting goals for the Waterfront that will intertwine the current business oriented plan with recreational and beautification enhancements.. These amenities will combine outdoor recreational experiences with the peacefulness evoked by the open space and timelessness of the San Francisco Bay. The goals will bring an aesthetically pleasing amount of greenery and shoreline recreational opportunities to the area, so as to create a pleasing ratio between developments. We will be forwarding this proposal to the Planning Commission for further review and refinements and/or revisions. We feel this is a critical protocol that should be adhered to before any project can be permitted to proceed along our waterfront properties. These guidelines are not to be considered as a replacement for the 1982 B.C.D.C. and Burlingame City Councils Public Access Guidelines for the Anza Area, Burlingame. They are only an addendum, and are being added on to the guidelines, to update and compliment the policies in place, and to ensure the safety and well being of the residents and visitors of Burlingame. This is not a proposal for a Master Plan for the Anza Area. This is a new guideline or requirement for �. permit application, to any applicant that will apply for a building permit in the Anza area. The City should match the developer on City owned land, in an area nearby, that is considered Open Space that would equal the improvements to the shoreline that the developer is improving. If this clause is adhered to, the entire shoreline should be redone within twenty to thirty years. The City Engineer will get bids on the engineering costs required to perform the necessary improvements. The fees can be levied from the developer or the developer can have the work completed. City and B.C.D.0 inspections will be necessary in either scenario. ADDENDUM 1. BURLINGAME SHORELINE PROPERTIES a.)
