An application filed with the City Engineer proposed a resubdivision
of portion of Lot 13 and Lot 14, Block 1, Glenwood Park Subdivision,
said property more commonly known as 1512 Barroilhet Avenue.
E.D. Van Slyke, property owner, and L. Ara tia g Civil Engineer, were in
attendance to discuss the application. -

�edns sting of two lots, a dwelling and a detaohed garage structure,
has been; occupied as a single property for a number of years. The

14A - a new residence to be built on Lot 13A.
The City Engineer stated that the land area of . the two -lots is satis-
factory. however, Lot 13A has an average width of 46 feet as opposed
to the City°s requirement that all lots have an average width of not
less than 50 feet on a public street. In addition, the City Engineer
noted that the side set back on Lot 14A is less than the City°s mini-
mum,
The Planning Consultant, in reply to the Chair, stated that the appli-
cation actually prolDoses more than a resubdivision of property. There
_ are two variances-Ifivolved which the Commission, if it sees fat to do
so, may grant. However, the application will have to -be processed
not as a lot resubdivision, but as a request for a variance.

removed from Lot 13A, which the owner has,advised he will do, this
rageo

City Engineer withhold final approval of the rop, until the ;a rag® is
built.

ing a variance application. The matter was scheduled for public hear-
Ing on April 25,, 1960.
2. SPECIAL PEPJI' T - Ice Skating Club ISM North Carolan Avenues
An application For a use permit for operation of a membership ice
skating; rink on propert; located at 1403 North Carolan Avenue, was
filed by Archie Snider, property owner; and Barry A. Gorman., repre-
senting the Burlingame Ice Sknting Club.
Three communications dated March 19, 1960, signed by Barry A. Gorman,
Corporation President, described in detail the proposed operation.
The Planning Consultant advised that the zoning is M=1 (Industrial).
The ordinanoe does not provide for the proposed use in an industrial
district so that the proper approach would appear to be on the basis
of a use permit application.
Mr. Gorman was In attendance, and In reply to Chairman Diederichson
advised that the rink Is to be operated on a membership basis and
not as a public arena. Mr. Gorman stated that they will cater to
family groups and -particular emphasis will be placed on instruction
of children in figure skating. There will be class Instruction in
the afternoon and family skating in the evenings. On occasion, the
arena will be available to groups, other than members, on a rental
basis.
The Planning Consultant stated that he had been informed that the
building will be constructed by Mr. Snider in such a way that if
the ice skating operation ceases, the building can be changed to an
Industrial use.
Parking facilities were discussed and it was determined that these
were adequate.
Mr. Gorman was advised that if a use permit were approved for the
operation, any change in the nature of the use would automatically
void the permit.
The application was scheduled for hearing at the next regular meeting,
April 25, 1960.

The Planning Consultant reported, as a matter of general information,
