14ayor Ams trup announced thi s was the time and pI ace schedu'led , puf suant
to- publ i shed' noti ce, to conduct publ i c heari ngs fgf the purpose_ of_
con!idering proposed additions to the City of Burl ingame General PIan
mandated by State of California Government Code.
For the benefit of the audience, Mayor Amstrup explained that the work
of preparing the two Elements progressed over several months. The
documehts bifore the City Council $,ere approved by the Planning Commission
and recommended for adoption.
1. SCENIC ROADS AND HIGHt,IAYS ELEMENT
Declaring the hearing open, Mayor Amstrup invited comments from the fIoor.
There were none. The hearing was declared closed'
During a period of Council discussion, Counci lman Cusick asked removal
of Eaiton Drive and Canyon Road from the City's Element because of pos-
sible increase in traffic resul ting from "scenic Roads" deslgnation.
Councilman Crosby referred to comments on thls subject heard from the
City Engineer at the Council study meeting on_september 10. He asked
the- latier to comment. The City Engineer explained there was some con-
cern about Easton Drive because it is narrow but staff, after Iengthy
discussion, concluded that increased traffic due to the designation
would be rather negligible and decided not to oppose 'lts f nclusion in the
El ement.
It was Councilman Harrison's position

Counci I di scussion ensued.
Councilman Cusick referred to Page 3-25 paragraph titled "Future RailroadNoise," second to last sentence, "A BART extension would definitely beless noisy but by how much and in what locations would depend upon statlon
and track design el evati ons. " Commenti ng that exi sti ng proposal s for
BART on the Peninsula contemplate an equipment storage yard ln Burlingame,
Councilman Cusick questioned that BART will be less noisy in this Citythan the Southern Pacific. There was no objection from other Council z,

Councilman Cusick referred to Page 6-2, first sentence in the paragraph
titled "Declaration of Pol icy. " -She expressed hesitancy about ttte City
placing itself on record "of-exc'l uding and prohibiting alJ. annoying,
bxcessive and unnecessary noises from all sources........ ". Pointing
out that not everyone considers the same noises annoying or excessive--
children at play, for example, might be annoying to some but not to
others--she hsf-tra that the sentence be amended to provide, in effect'
for a policy of preserving peaceful noise conditions in the City where
they eiist ind attempting-to maintain a peaceful atmosphere throughout
the City.
The City Planner reported that the Planning Commission debated the
point aLout "al I sources" and inserted "which are" after "sources"
lo that the last part of the sentence reads "sources which are subiect
to its regulatory, administrative and police powgls." He stated
the amendilent is- shown in Exhibit A attached to Planning Commission
Resolution No. l4-75. Councilman Cusick indicated this was acceptable.
Councilman Harrison asked about curtailing equipment noises such as
swimmi ng pool fi 1 ters, garden mowers , etc. The Ci ty Pl anner stated
an ordinairce would be required to declare such noises a nuisance.

Commission's recommendation for the above change in traffic flow. In
an addendum to the letter, the City Manager informed the Council that
the Nolte traffic survey recommends the change and that he and the
Traffi c Eng i neer concur.
A remark from Councilman Crosby concerning problems that mlght ariseinitiated a period of discussion during which the City Planner statedthat Greyhound may be concerned because of the bus stop on Hlghlandfor San Franci sco bound buses.
The City Engineer reported that Greyhound was alerted by the Traffic
Engineer. Staff recommends that a new bus stop be located at the
corner of Howard and Cal ifornia Drive at Arata Pontiac frontage. The
Engineer explained there may be some repercussions because the stopwill be at Arata's drlveway in the area where employees park on thestreet. An alternative Iocation was the other side of Howard at the
former Borden site, but this was con s i dered not as desirable.
!'lith Council concurrence, l'4ayor Amstrup directed the City Attorney to
prepare legislation for the Counci I 's consideratlon.

There were no objections from the Council to t'layor Amstrup's commentthat any consideration to change in operation be held in abeyance and

3. CITY ATTORNEY RE: INTERIM ORDINANCE CONCERNING THEATER USES
Under date of September 3, 1975, the City Attorney forwarded to the
Clty Councll flnal form of Interlm Urgency 0rdinance No. 1046 adopted
by the Counci I at its meetl ng of September 2, 1975 , whereby theater uses
are prohibited ln C-l and C-2 zones. In hls memo, the Attorney explainedthat the next step is for the Planning Commission to study the matterof theater uses in the two zones and report back to the City Council,
hopefully, withln the 4 months period which is the 'initial term of
an interim ordinance, subject to extenslon for further perl ods if
necessary. The Attorney suggested that indlvidual Councl l members
who have opinlons on th'l s matter not expressed in'prior discussions
may wish to convey these to the Planning Dlrector so they may be utllizedfor guidance of the Commisslon, Any input from Councll and the community
will be most valuable when the Commission initiates its studies at the
November l0 meetl ng.
Mayor Amstrup explalned the ordinance was adopted by the City Council
because of the two vacant theater buildlngs. Thel r conti nued use for
theater purposes is deemed undeslrable for many obvious reasons.
