Barrett Construction Company, 1800 Evans Avenue, San Francisco, sub- mitted an application for a variance to permit construction of a market, and off-street parking, on property at the noRtheast corner of El Camino Real and Chapin Avenue. There is a fron age of approximately 200 feet on Chapin Avenue and 195 feet on El amino Real. The zoning is C-2 (service trades) with the exception o a portion of the E1 Camino frontage which is R-4 (fourth residen ia1). Rea Dattisman a d H.M. Richardson represented they applicant. The Commission was dvised that it is proposed to use the R-4 lot primar- ily for parking and landscaping, with the main portion of the build- ing to be locat d on the commercial area. In reviewing a preliminary drawing, Commissioners indicated that the arrangement was not entirely satisfactory. Reference was made par- ticularly to the location of the parking area.
