A letter dated August 14, 1967, signed by Paul R. Reis, District Manager, .let Air Freight, requested permission to place a trailer on the property at 1348 Rollins Road for the purposes of temporary office facilities, until February, 1968. The communication explained that Jet Air Freight presently occupies office space at 1499 Bayshore Highway, Burlingame; that arrangements were made to relocate to the Rollins Road site by November 15, 19679 but the present; occupants, Wilsey Bennett Trucking Company, are unable to move to their new location in Foster City before February, 1968. A sketch to indicate the area where the trailer is proposed to be located was filed. , The City Planner, in reply to the Chair, reported that h'e inspected the property and that there would appear to be sufficient space for the trailer without interference to dockage facilities. He stated that the premises are in poor condition; however, since the Wilsey Bennett firm will be vacating soon, problems of poor housekeeping and inadequate improvements can be deferred until such time that Jet: Air Freight Miles its application for a use permit for the property. The City Planner advised that the present proposal is before the Com- Rission for decision since the code makes no provision for trailer use_, a;nd, i.f the temporary use were approved, a time limitation should be imposed so there will be no question of precedent. In repay to the Chair's inquiry, Mr. Reis advised that at the present time Jet Air Freight owns no trucks, that the freight is handled by another company under contract and that it is doubtful trucks will be rcquired until the Rollins Road site is available.
