Draft EIR had been rewritten to reflect changes requested by the Planning Commissionat meeting of June 28, 1976. The City Planner read findings attached to Resolution 2-76 stating that whiie C-3 use would bein conformance with the General Plan, the reclassification of this one lot would be inappropriate for the following reasons: l. There could be parking impact from employees and customers of some C-3uses. 2. There could be sewer and water impacts from intensive C-3 uses due to the capaci ti es of exi sting underground utilitiesin the area, 3. There should first be a study of rezoning wi thi n the whole area along Peninsula Avenue, from Dwight Road to Humboldt Road. The City Pl anner poi nted out that C-3 cl assi fi cati on would permi t devel opment of al I uses permi tted i n R di stri cts. AI so, banks , savi ngs and I oan associations and other fi nanci al institu- ti ons ; offi ces of physicians, surgeons, denti sts etc.; offi ces for real estate, insurance and similar professions. The Ci ty Pl anner compared rel ati ve fl oor areas possi bl e forthis 5,037 SF lot. R-l construction with 402 Iot coverage would permit a two story building with 3'600 SF floor area and a doublegarage. C-3 zoning would allow one stoBy with 1,500 SF of floor area and five parking spaces; or two stories,7 parking spaces' 2,100 SF floor area; or three stories with 2,700 SF floor area, 9 park and im Planni i n9 pl i ng spaces.

Hefect of intensive C-3 uses, and the possibi I ity of greater development of the lot thaa that presently proposed. The Councilman emphasized there ls still a difference in wording between the two documents and suggested the wording be changed. Vice-Mayor Harrison questioned if reference had been made to Planning Commissioner Mink's suggestions regarding the EIR as detailed in Planning Commission minutes of June 28, 1976. Council- man Martin added that Commissioner Mink had suggested that the EIR reflect the effect of any office building. The Councilman stated he would be satisfied if the Council minutes showed that attention had been called to the discrepancy between the Resolution and the EIR. Counci I man Marti n went on to note that Page Il of the EIRprojects a noi se I evel of 9l dBA duri ng constructlon of a C-3building. He commented that from his experience there is nodifference in noise Ieyels during construction between an R-l bui lding and a C-3 bui I di ng. He added that I ast paragraph on Pagel8 states, ". . . there is no history of rezone applications inthe vicinity of the site;. ." He noted ther€is an apartment house now being constructed directly across Dwight from this lot, andthat in the past years as a councilman he had sat through three th i ch th ad ef act: 1 a hearings when the former owner ofa gas station.

She stated they considered this to be a compatiblearea to build a home-like roomy building with proximity to Bayshore Freeway which would be important bec!use the agency would do much del i veri n9, al though most of its busi ness woul d be done over the phone. Mrs. Peratis assured the Council she and her be as proud of this building as the community did s i dered the parki ng ample and that si gnage would introduced as her co-worker in the travel agency22ll Scott Street, San Franci sco.

She Ms. Linda Detry, i denti fi ed hersel f as operator of a nearby rest 158 3^ 159 home. She urged Council acceptance of the Peratis proposal, statingshe had bought this lot for the purpose of constructing a home forthe el derly, but now is i nterested in another lot cl oser to herpresent establishment. She presented the idea that a small travelagency would be preferable to her tvro-story rest home or anothertype of three story building. Mrs. Phil Knight,23 Dwight Road, stated she had seen Mr, Peratiscollecting signatures from residents near Bayshore Freeway, whereasthe signatures for the opposing petition had been gathered fromresidents of the immediate area affected. She mentioned that 50Xof the population are renters and that they have rights in thismatter also, She noted Mr. Peratis said that a travel agency wouldhelp the community. Citing the existence of some 30 such agenciesto serve she questi oned the val ue of this busi ness. She noted concern of residents that if this business failed, some more inten-sive use could occupy the building. She questioned Mr. Peratis'statement that rezoni ng thi s I ot woul d rai se property val ues ,since it would also have the effect of discouraging buyers of resl- dences because of problems with parking and traffic. Mrs. Knightstated that most parking of vehicles on this vacant lot was fromconstruction workers on the nearby apartmerlt project; and that aparking lot on a property, even with trees and shrubs, could notbe considered landscaping. l{ith regard to the fact that the increasein traffic would be minimal , she said that any increase at all woul d create probl ems . Noti ng that the General Pl an projects I owdensity for this area, she pointed out the resistance of the nei ghborhood to proposed rezoai ng 2 years ago, and the fact that it would be fought at this time also. She summarized that there are more di sadvantages than advantages to this proposal , and suggesteda better use for the property would be a neighborhood park. Mr. Marcel Biscay,l795 El Camino Real, Millbrae appeared asrepresentative of Mr. John DaDalt, 39 Bancroft Road. He consideredthe City has been conscientious in keeping the zoning uniform andthat spot zoning vroul d set a bad precedent. He noted the narrownessof Peninsula on the Burlingarne side and the fact that any increase would create more parking and traffic problems. There has been aquesti on for years , he sai d, of what to put on this i sol ated lot;but if it were rezoned, it would start the process of Iike requests al I along Peninsula. He considered there has been a trend away from business in this area, citing several that have moved away. lrlhi le he considered the physical plans for this business good, hequestioned if it would generate much revenue other than propertytaxes. He stated he had read the EIR and agreed that it should becorrected. He considered the Planning Commission had given thematter careful consideration and urged the Counci I to support thei rdecision. Mr. Chris UImgreen, l6 Dwight, identified himself as a 50-yearresident of this area, and questioned if the City was going to rezone from Dwight to Humboldt. The Vi ce-t'layor assured him thatonly this one lot rias being considered. Mr. Ulmgreen was worriedthat property taxes would rise with rezoning. Dwight Smith,50l Bayswater, opposed rezonresidential property value has already dec o n Pe n i n s u I a. i ng, poi nti nglined in the out adjoi ni ngthat block Mrs. Anne Smi th, l5 Dwi ght Road, opposed rezoni ng. Charlotte Kalbhenn, 415 Burlingame Avenue, stated her mother'I ived at 300 Peninsula, and backing out of driveways was a hazard. Masud Hamzeluc, 401 Bermuda, San Mateo, said his inlaws livedat 2l Stanliy,Road. He agreed there was a bad traffic problem onPeninsula, but said he did not think thi s business woul d generate any more traffic than the apartment house that is being constructed. l{alter Dunn, 114 Peninsula, was in favor of rezoning the wholeface of Peni nsul a Avenue. He cons i dered that the businesses al ongit and the traffic generated by the tloodlake Apartments ruled out q 160 its being considered a residential area. Norri s B.
