Mayor ll4artin indicated that there has been a recent change in State Law con-
cerning reissuance of disabled parking permits. He stated that the city
currently has no disabled parking spaces on the street and that he felt that
Bur'l ingame should have some. CounciI concumed with the Mayor and directed
to staff to suggest locations where additional disabled parking spaces could
be placed on the street.
3, BAYFRONT HOTEL SIGNAGE
Councilman Amstrup suggested that council should review allowing hotels a
smalI additional amount of signage on the bayfront for identification. He
stated that certain hotels, because of their location, under our existing
code, are allowed signage that faces the bay, whereas, others are not.
Councilwoman Barton indicated that she would agree to look at the matter since
she had recently flown in and noticed that some hotels such as Crown Plaza have
a 'large blank wall facing the bayfront. Councilman Mangini indicated he would
rather wait to see what neighboring cities do for their hotels. Mayor Martinindjcated that we almost need a case by case review of the matter. Councilman
Pagliaro indicated that he did not see that there had been any change in this
matter since we had reviewed it wjth the Mamiott Hotel and not allowed any
additional signage. The majority of the council agreed to refer the matterto the Planning Commission to 'look at what changes in the code might be necessaryto accommodate small amounts of signage for hotels on1y.
