HEARINGS
(a)CONTINUATION CITY "GENE RAL PI"AN "
Mayor Uartin announced the continuation of the hearing on the "General
Pl,an " proposed for the future development of the City of Burlingame
and referred to the City Planner.
The City Planner corMrented on the material submitted to Council as
requested at the initial Council hearinq and directed attention to
an enlarged reproduct.ion of the General Plan map on display andidentical with the map included within the ceneraL Plan brochure.
A petition, bearing the signatures of one-hundred sixteen residents
of the City within the area north of Broadway bound by El Camino
Real and California Drive, filed by Mr. George J. cavanaugh, 1550
Eastmoor Road, earlier in the evening, was acknovrledged.
'Ihe petition set forth a "protect to any part of the General Planpertaining to this area" and particularly "to the extension of
Mills Avenue into the Industrial area east of California Drive, "
The city Planner advised that tshe preliminary General Plan did so
allude to Mills.Avenue as a means of access to the Millsdale Industrial
135
areasi that by reason of objections entered by the residents of
Ir{ills Avenue at the initial proceedings, the specific area was
completely removed from the General Plan.
fhe cify Planner thereafter referred to Page #20 of the General Plan,
"crade Separation Structures " stating that "railroad grade sePara-
tions are recommended at Broadway, oak crove, Hovrard and Peninsula
Avenues" and on "a new street in a location btvreen Broad$ray and
Irlillbrae Avenue to provide an additional means of access to l{i1lsda1e
and to East t1illsdale Industrial areas. "
Mr. George cavanaugh, 1560 Eastmoor Road, stated that any new streetthat vrould be eonverted in the area trould add greatly to the currenttraffic congestion and co{ruoented on an article appearing in the
Septenber 3rd issue of the san Mateo Times, specifically naming
"Mil1s Avenue. "
fhe Chair reiterated the statment of the City Planner that thedraft of the General P1an, before council for approval, deleted
reference to Mills Avenue.
I'1r. combs questioned $rhether the recommendation to provide astreet could be completely removed from the paragraph tn the
P 1an.
Mr. clark C, Cfilbs, 1451 California Drive, expressed his concern that
in recommending "a new street in a location between Broad\"ray and
Millbrae Avenue" could sti1l refer to Mil1s Avenue or to possibly
Rosedale Avenue.
Mayor Martin reported on the changres proposed to improve conditionsat the Broadway Interchange and the unliklihood of the City expending
funds t,o provide a grade separation on Mills Avenue.

a
new
General
councilman funstrup, commenting upon his personal in'-erest in theparticular area, stated that he would also prefer that a "new road "be eliminated from the p1an.
The City Planner stated that trithin the next eight to ten years it \"ri 11be necessary to explore the tvro industrial tracts and that the
recomnendation in the General Plan is a method of determining hcnrtraffic may be circul-ated frorn one industrial area to another.
Ihe City Planner referred to statistics compiled by the State HighvrayDivision projecting future increases in traffic in the area and statedthat when the tvro industrial areas are completed, Millbrae Avenue and
Broadr^ray will be increasingly burilened; that a "general plan" is aguideline to the future development of the city and some means
should be projected to join the tqro large industrial tracts.
Mayor Martin suggested a change in the wording of Section 2O7 of
"crade Separation Structures" by ending the first sentence after thewords "Peninsula Avenue " and proposed that the paragraph be re-phrasedspecifying that a new street be loeated in an area within the
boundaries of Broadway and Millbrae Avenue, the railroad tracks andthe Bayshore Highway, to provide the addi,tional means of access toMillsdale and to East Millsdale industrial areas.
Mr. william Spangle, the Planning consultant, stated the opinion thatthe Uil1s Avenue grade separation was important to the General Plant
hcnrrever, the reference to a specific loeaLion for a rail crossing atltlills Avenue was deleted by the Planning commissionr that if the
recoflrmended change is to occur, to be consistent, paragrraph 2 ;underSection 207, should be changed.
Iqayor Martin questioned the proposed uses rarithin the

Follc "ring discussion on "spot zoning" within areas of Lorton Avenue
and Park Road, Mayor Martin reconrnended the follcruring changeg:
(1) That the C-I zoning uses be extended through both sides of
Park Road and (2) that the C-I zoning uses be continued on Hqdard
Avenue on the block betv.reen Park Road and torton Avenue.
Mx. Spangle, comrenting on the above, stated that it was his opiniontbat a shopping and service category and particularly additionaloffice buildings in this area would be colnpatible with the residential
zoning.
A question from Counci Iman Coosby concerning a cross-hatched designa-tion on the General Plan Map and Park Road and El camino Real, t aa
acknorrledged by the City Planner to be incorrectly illust,rated.
In reply to Council inquiries concerning a triangular section encompass-ing a portion of Occidental Avenue, the City Planner referred to a
study made by the Planning Cofiirnission some years prior and the proposalthat the area be rezoned to apartments t the issue has not been
considered since the presentation of the General Plan and it is ncr.,
reconunended that at sqre future date, the area be zoned R-3A,
"Gard en-apartment. "
The City Planner, replying to councj"lman crosby's inguiry concerningextending the proposed zoning to Barroilhet Avenue, stated that the
areas so designated will require the greater rehabilitation and re-
grc .tth .

upon which street the new medical facility was recently approved, is
zoned for office usages.

proposed in the General P1an.
l4ayor llartin questioned the zoning of the property upon which the
Burlingane Bigh School is located, with the City Planner replying thati.t is presently "unclassified" and stating that Mr. Spangle has
suggested that a new zoning be set forth for "unclassified lands. "
The city Attorney was requested by the Chair to submit his opinionto council concerning the "use of classified lands. "
councilman crosby referred to the area of the Broadhray Interchange.
Trhe City Planner stated that the Preliminary PIan was sPecific; hc,wever,
the area is ncrr cireled on the map to indicate that it is under Etudy.
Ihe city Planner, answering councilman Crosby's inquiry on the "medium
hi.gh density" indicated in the area of the Wbshington School, statedthat sdne method is necessary to Provide for the uP-grading of theutility services so that zoning processes may be conunenced i that if
council agrees that the area should be rezoned, consideration should
be given to improve the obsolete utility facilities.
Mr. Spangle, in reply to Counci lman Crosby, reiterated his position
that ne$, links are vital to accolnmodate traffic in and out of
Burlingame at Broadbray and that I*liIlsdale and East t'tillsdale trafficwill require additional crossings. llr. Spangle stated that one
alternative is "a better transportation plan. "
Mrs. Barbara Jean Diehl, 1324 Edgehill Drive, questioned the statua of
the property surrounding her neighborhood.

the City Planner stated that generally, proPerties from Oak Grove
