WHEREAS, on March 9, 2020 the Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing
(design review study) to review a 169-unit residential apartment development project. At that time
direction was provided to the applicant regarding several design modifications; and
Following consideration of all information contained in the October 26, 2020 staff report to the
Planning Commission regarding the project, all written correspondence, and all public comments
received at the public hearing, the Planning Commission grants approval of the 169-unit residential
apartment development project based on the following findings regarding the project entitlements:
Desion Review Findinqs:
That the proposed project supports the pattern of diverse architectural styles that characterize the
City's mixed-use area with the use of a variety of materials to express a timeless aesthetic on this
gateway property that serves as the transition site between the southern edge of the City of
Millbrae and the city of Burlingame's northern most border. The building massing includes a
central tower that serves as a defining element to welcome and draw people into the plaza. The
fagades are broken into various heights and steps to provide visual relief and interest, particularly
at the corner where the frontage road meets Murchison Drive. The exterior finishes including
1
metal roof canopies, aluminum storefront windows, cement board siding, plaster finishes and
glass and metal railings at the balconies provide articulation that is not too busy, but provides a
calm presence;
That the design respects and promotes pedestrian activity by providing a public plaza to enliven
the El Camino Realfrontage, which wraps around to Murchison Drive. The plaza is sized relative
to the building and provides an opportunity for outside passive recreation, with new street trees,
planters, and amenities while creating activity along the route to the nearby transit opportunities.
That on this visually prominent, gateway site the building has been designed with roof decks at
El Camlno Real and California Drive and will provide a prominent foundation to anchor this site,
acknowledging an entry to the City with an urban design that compliments both the new and old
architecturalfabric in the surrounding area;
That the building is compatible with the mass, bulk, scale, and existing materials of existing
development in that the exterior building materials include metal roof canopies, aluminum
storefront windows, cement board siding, and plaster finishes; and
That site features such as fencing, landscaping, and pedestrian circulation to be provided in a
public plaza will enrich the existing opportunities of the neighborhood.
WHEREAS, said matters were heard by the Planning Commission of the City of Burlingame on
October 26. 2020, at which time it reviewed and considered the staff report and all other written materials
and testimony presented at said hearing;
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS RESOLVED AND DETERMINED BY THIS PLANNING COMMISSION THAT:
Section 1. On the basis of the documents submitted and reviewed, and comments received and
addressed by this Commission, it is hereby found that there is no substantial evidence that the project set
forth above will have a significant effect on the environment, per CEQA Section 15183, Consistency with
the General Plan, is hereby approved.
Section 1. Said Design Review, Density Bonus, Community Benefits, and Recommendation
of Lot Merger are approved subject to the conditions set forth in Exhibit "A" attached hereto. Findings for
such Design Review, Density Bonus, Community Benefits, and Recommendation of Lot Merger set forth
in the staff report, minutes, and recording of said meeting.
Section 2. lt is further directed that a certified copy of this resolution be recorded in the official
records of the County of San Mateo.

Avoid the use of circular saws, miter/chop saws, and radial arm saws near the
adjoining noise-sensitive receptors. Where feasible, shield saws with a solid
screen with material having a minimum surface density of 2 pounds per square
foot (e.9., such as 0.74 inch plywood).
Unnecessary idling of internal combustion engines shall be stricfly prohibited.
Control noise from construction workers' radios to a point where lhey are not
audible at existing residences bordering the project site.
Maintain smooth vehicle pathways for trucks and equipment accessing the site
and avoid local residential neighborhoods as much as possible.
During final grading, substitute graders for bulldozers, where feasible. Wheeled
heavy equipment are quieter than track equipment and should be used where
feasible.
During interior construction, locate noise-generating equipment within the
building to break the line-of-sight to the adjoining receptors.
The contractor shall prepare a detailed construction plan identifying the schedule
for major noise-generating construction activities. The construction plan shall
identify a procedure for coordination with adjacent residential land uses so that
construction activities can be scheduled to minimize noise disturbance.
Designate a "disturbance coordinato/' who would be responsible for responding
to any complaints about construction noise. The disturbance coordinator will
determine the cause of the noise complaint (e.g. bad muffler, etc.) and will
require that reasonable measures be implemented to correct the problem.
Conspicuously post a telephone number for the disturbance coordinator at the
construction site and include it in the notice sent to neighbors regarding the
construction schedule.
59 Policy cs.4.l2: Project-specific vibration control Measures. To reduce construction
vibration impacts, the project contractor(s) shall implement the following actions:. A list of all heavy construction equipment to be used for the proposed project
known to produce high vibration levels (tracked vehicles, vibratory compaction,
jackhammers, hoe rams, etc.) shall be submitted to the City of Burlingame by the
contractor. This list shall be used to identify equipment and activities that would
potentially generate substantial vibration and to define the level of effort for
reducing vibration levels below the thresholds.. Operating equipment on the construction site shall be placed as far as possible
from vibration-sensitive receptors.. Smaller equipment shall be used where possible to minimize vibration levels
below the limits.. Vibratory rollers and tampers shall not be used within 20 feet of the 1g60 El
Camino Real building.. Demolition methods not involving impact tools shall be used.. Alternative construction methods to reduce vibration levels below the limits shall
be identified and used.. Dropping of heavy objects or materials shall be avoided.

Neighbors within 100 feet of the construction site shall be notified of the
construction schedule and that there could be noticeable vibration levels during
project construction activities.
lf heavy construction is proposed within 20 feet of the '1860 El Camino Real
building, a construction vibration-monitoring plan shall be implemented prior to,
during, and after vibration generating construction activities located within these
setbacks. All plan tasks shall be undertaken under the direction of a licensed
Professional Structural Engineer in the State of California and be in accordance
with industry accepted standard methods. The construction vibration monitoring
plan should be implemented to include the following tasks:o Performance ofa photo survey, elevation survey, and crack monitoring
survey for the 1860 El Camino Real building. Surveys shall be performed
prior to and after completion of vibration generating construction activities
located within 20 feet of the structure. The surveys shall include internal
and external crack monitoring in the structure, setflement, and distress,
and shall document the condition of the foundation, walls and other
structural elements in the interior and exterior of the structure.o Conduct a post-survey on the 1860 El Camino Real building where either
monitoring has indicated high levels or complaints of damage. Make
appropriate repairs in accordance with the Secretary of the lnterior's
Standards where damage has occurred as a result of construction
activities.o The results of any vibration monitoring shall be summarized and
submitted in a report shortly after substantial completion of each phase
identified in the project schedule. The report will include a description of
measurement methods, equipment used, calibration certificates, and
graphics as required to clearly identify vibration-monitoring locations. An
explanation of all events that exceeded vibration limits will be included
together with proper documentation supporting any such claims.o Designate a person responsible for registering and investigating claims of
excessive vibration. The contact information of such person shall be
clearly posted on the construction site.
60 HP-5.2: Migratory Birds. Avoid construction activities that involve tree removal between
March and June, unless a bird survey has been conducted to determine that the tree is
unused during the breeding season by avian species protected under california Fish and
Game Codes 3503, 3503.5, and 351 1;
6'1.MM 12-1t Paleontological Assessment. ln areas containing middle to late pleistocene-
era sediments where it is unknown if paleontological resources exist, prior to grading an
assessment shall be made by a qualified paleontological professional to establish tne
need for paleontological monitoring. should paleontological monitoring be required after
recommendation by the professional paleontologist and approval by the iommunity
Development Director, paleontological monitoring shall be impiemented.

Paleontological Monitoring. A project that requires grading plans and is located in an
area of known fossil occurrence or that has been demonstrated to have fossils present in
a paleontological field survey or other appropriate assessment shall have all grading
monitored by trained paleontological crews working under the direction of a qualified
professional, so that fossils exposed during grading can be recovered and preserved.
Paleontological Findings. Qualified paleontological personnel shall prepare a report of
findings (with an itemized appendix of specimens) subsequent to implementation of
paleontological recovery, identification, and curation. A preliminary report shall be
submitted, subject to approval by the Community Development Director before granting
of building permits, and a final report shall be submitted, subject to approval by the
Community Development Director before granting of occupancy permits.
Should any potentially unique fossils be encountered during development activities, work
shall be halted immediately within 50 feet of the discovery, the City of Burlingame planning
Department shall be immediately notified, and a qualified paleontologist shall be retained
to determine the significance of the discovery.
Paleontological Recovery, ldentification, and Curation. The City and a project
applicant shall consider the mitigation recommendations of the qualified paleontologist for
any unanticipated discoveries. The City and the projeci applicant shall consult and agree
upon implementation of measures that the City and project applicant deem feasible and
appropriate. Such measures may include avoidance, preservation in place, excavation,
documentation, curation, data recovery, or other appropriate measures. The project
applicant shall be required to implement any mitigation necessary for the protection of
paleontological resources.
