Crew" in white on black awning but no signs on the windows, are they asking for more signage here than on their other sites; would consider removing the window signs being requested; awning signs advertise location from a distance, pedestrian can not see awning, window is visible to them, trying to promote pedestrian activity so window signs needed; this may be a corporate identification or not, it is a tasteful sign program; since the number of signs go with the property, when J. Crew leaves can a new retailer do same program, yes; at first thought did not need so many signs, -4- City of Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes June g, Iggg then looked on avenue, Gap has awning and window signs, look pleasant; agree this is subtle and tasteful providing good harmony.

There were no further comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed. C. Coffey moved approval of the sign exception noting that signing this activity was fundamental, had to have in order to manage the controlled parking which had been approved by the city earlier, without signs could not operate function, these signs do not seem to be oversized or out of order for the informational need for guests; the action is by resolution with the addition of a condition that the parking lot be restriped to match the previously approved parking layout within 90 days and the amended conditions in the staff report: 1) that the addition of the 8 signs on the primary frontage within the parking area shall be designed and installed as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department and date stamped April 21, 1998; 2) that the sign permit shall not be issued or the signs installed until the conditions of the City engineer's memo dated June 1, 1998 have been met and the parking lot shall be restripped within 90 days, September 8, 1998; and 3) that the project shall meet all California Building and Fire Codes, 1995 Edition as amended by the City of Burlingame.

APPLICATION FOR NEGATIVE DECLARATION, SPECIAL PERMIT, PARKING VARIANCE AND LANDSCAPING VARIANCE FOR A TWO-STORY 11,484 SF ADDITION TO AN EXISTING TRAINING FACILITY AT 1519 ROLLINS ROAD, ZONED M-1. (PLUMBERS, STEAMFITTERS & REFRIGERATION FITTERS, LOCAL 467 AND STANLEY E. PANKO, APPLICANTS AND PIPE TRADES APPRENTICE AND JOURNEYMAN TRAINING TRUST FUND FOR SAN MATEO COUNTY BUILDING FOUNDATION. PROPERTY OWNER) Reference staff report, 06.08.98, with attachments. CP and Commission discussed the request, reviewed criteria, Planning Department comments, and study meeting questions. Fourteen conditions were recommended for consideration. Commissioner asked if this site were not nonconforming in parking would the parking requirement be much larger; yes because of the recent addition to the parking requirements for classroom use of 1:50 GSF for the instructional area within the existing building; the parking ratio for the new space is based on laboratory parking requirements of 1:800 GSF. There were no other questions from the commission. Chair Deal opened the public hearing. Stan Panko, 311 Seventh Avenue, San Mateo, architect, spoke, he noted that they have tried to reduce the parking impact of the variance by arranging for the easement to use 25 parking spaces on the adjacent property, there has always been enough parking for the existing building, the issue is the addition. The area shown on the plans as "rental" is in fact a storage area, the plans were revised to show this; they do. have a concern about condition 6, because, while they do not rent the premises to outside groups, they do allow the union hall to be used occasionally by groups on Saturdays for fund raisers or political functions, no money is paid for the use of the hall. The added space will be used for laboratories as an adjunct to the classroom use. Commissioner asked about the plans, seems to show parking in front of a loading dock, is the dock used; yes the dock is used during the day to deliver items needed for instruction, latest delivery is 5:00 p.m., classes are held at 5: 30 p.m. so the area can be used for parking when there is the highest demand. During the day there are about 9 people employed on the site. Also requesting a variance for landscaping, the way the site works now, one can look down the 20 foot access to Rollins Road and see a strip of greenery, this will be blocked by the new addition, can this green screen be put someplace else on the site, could reinforce the landscape at the entry; am not sure that that area is on the 1519 Rollins site may be neighbor's, but could reinforce landscaping at entry by adding to existing with neighbor's permission if necessary; landscape plan has not yet been prepared. Rick Gabin, El City of Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes June g, 1998 Training Director, 1519 Rollins Road, noted that the loading dock is for the delivery of pipe and materials for the laboratories; they have a 5 year apprentice program which supplements job experience, workers attend two nights a week and discuss theory, need laboratory because on the job experience is not as hands on as it used to be and the technology of the industry is changing rapidly as well as the ever changing safety requirements; the lab space will supplement the classroom activities in an evening, the same group of people are in the classroom and lab, they do such activities as take a boiler apart, a boiler is too big to fit in the classroom; how many attend a political event on the site, these events are always on Saturday (no classes) and average 45-50 people for 2-3 hours; are the trucks with camper shells on your property, no; CA indicated that these belonged to workers at the airport and the city had followed up with a code enforcement on the adjacent site, now the campers were just parked there, no one was living in them. Gary Saunders, Business Manager, spoke noting that there is an increased need for training because there is less time on the job for instruction; they also do a lot of CAD computer training in their computer lab; have political events 5 or 6 times a year and charity events 1 or 2 times, a good turn out for one of these events is 100 people, the! union hall has a rated capacity of 300. The union hall has never been rented out for a fee. There were no other comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed. Comments on the request: the CA noted that condition 6 if read strictly would not allow the political and charity events that the union now undertakes. The Chair suggested that the review begin with the negative declaration. C. Luzuriaga moved approval of the Negative Declaration with the mitigations to be included in the conditions on the project, finding that based on the initial study and comments at the public hearing there is no substantial evidence that the project would create a significant impact on the environment and that the proposed mitigations would reduce any impact to a level acceptable to the community. C. Coffey seconded the motion. Chair Deal called for a voice vote on the motion to approve the negative declaration which passed on a 6-0-1 (C. Key absent) vote. C. Coffey commented that he is often on Rollins Road and has never seen or heard of a parking problem on these union sites in the 15 years he has worked in the area, the usage time of the two sites are well coordinated, the union needs additional space to improve the quality of the training so he moved for approval of the conditional use permit and parking variance by resolution with the conditions in the staff report as modified by the city planner in presentation, modification of number six to allow authorized non -union use as is done now without rental for a fee, and adding a condition that the architect review the site with a landscape architect and try to maximize any landscape areas. The motion was seconded by C. Boju6s. Discussion on the motion: think its a good idea to expand the training program with hands on experience in a lab situation; understand that the lab space is used as an adjunct to the class room and will have minimal use when the classes are not in session; condition 8 seems to address the landscape issue with the requirements for a Water Management Plan, assume that those required plans would include plant materials as well as irrigation and would have to be approved by the Senior Landscape Inspector, so relates to the added condition in the motion. -7- City of Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes June g, lggg Chair Deal called for a voice vote on the motion to approve with the following amended conditions: 1) that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department and date stamped May 15, 1998, Sheets AO through A2, A4 through A6 and date stamped May 29, 1998, Sheet A3; 2) that the conditions of the City Engineer's April 13, 1998 memo, the Fire Marshal's April 14, 1998 memo, and the Chief Building Inspector's April 14, 1998 memo shall be met and that all goods stored in the below grade parking spaces and all wire cages installed shall be removed and all parking spaces shall be made available for parking use; 3) that union office may not be open for business except during the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday and there shall be no more than 9 union office employees; 4) that union meetings shall be held only the third Wednesday of each month from 7:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.; 5) that training classes shall be held only Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 5:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.; 6) that the meeting hall shall never be rented to any groups and shall be used only for monthly union meetings and events; 7) that this project shall meet all the requirements of the California Building and Uniform Fire Codes, 1995 Edition, as amended by the City of Burlingame; 8) The project is subject to the state -mandated water conservation program and complete Irrigation Water Management Plan shall be submitted with :landscape and irrigation plans to be approved by the city at the time of permit application; 9) that landscape areas shall be enhanced to maximize their impact and replace the lost view of greenery caused by the addition, the Senior Landscape Inspector shall review and approve these plans before issuance of building permits; 10) that the property owner shall maintain the reciprocal easement agreement between 1519 Rollins Road and 1511 Rollins Road which provides for joint access and for use of 25 parking spaces on the 1511 Rollins Road site; 11) that this proposal shall meet all the requirements of the Tree Protection and Reforestation Ordinance; adopted by the City of Burlingame in 1992 as amended in 1993; 12) that all construction shall be limited to the hours of construction as stated in the City of Burlingame Municipal Code (CS 18.07.130); 13) that all new utility connections to serve the site and which are affected by the development will be installed to meet current code standards and diameter; sewer laterals will be checked and replaced if necessary; 14) that on -site illumination shall be shielded and directed only on to the site; and 15) that should any cultural, archaeological or anthropological resources be discovered during construction, work shall be halted until the finding can be fully investigated, and proper protection measures, as determined by qualified professionals acceptable to the City, can be implemented. The motion was seconded by C. Vistica. The motion passed on a 6-0-1 (C. Key absent) vote. Appeal procedures were advised, noting that the next council meeting was June 10, 1998 so appeals would need to be submitted by then. In City of Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes June 8, 1998 APPLICATION FOR A SPECIAL PERMIT FOR THE EXPANSION OF AN EXISTING RESTAURANT ON UNCLASSIFIED LAND AND A PARKING SPACE DIMENSION VARIANCE AT 1190 CALIFORNIA DRIVE, ZONED UNCLASSIFIED, (NEXT CENTURY RESTAURANTS, APPLICANT PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION OF THE CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO WATER DEPARTMENT AND THE PENINSULA CORRIDOR JOINT POWERS BOARD, PROPERTY OWNERS). Reference staff report, 06.08.98, with attachments. CP and Commission discussed the request, reviewed criteria, Planning Department comments, and study meeting questions. Eleven conditions were recommended for consideration. In her presentation the City Planner noted that there was an error in the parking layout as shown on the plans submitted. Parking spaces 3-5 are 13' deep and parking space 9, 15' deep. In addition the parking stalls on the SF water land are all 16' deep because the plans do not show the four foot wide planter strip at the front of these parking spaces next to the sidewalk. Because of their size, the 1.3 foot spaces should be designated "small car parking only", and the San Francisco water spaces should all be designed "compact parking space". Commission asked if the Joint Powers Board lease was in place, yes; is the San Francisco Water lease in place, understand it will not be approved until after the city has acted; what back up aisle is required for 60 degree parking; 18 feet„ 16 feet is provided and is the existing condition. Should this parking be designated by signs for this restaurant's use, yes. Chair Deal opened the public hearing. William E. Boyd, attorney, represented the applicant, he noted that the applicant heard what was said about the previous application, worked with staff to understand what they should do for this application; have reviewed the conditions and the modifications discussed tonight and find them acceptable; providing a high quality restaurant not a sandwich place, feel it will be a great addition to the community. Mr. Smith, architect, Arlene Patton, representing the Joint Powers Board and Umberto Gibin, the applicant, spoke. City and County of San Francisco has approved the lease, it is ready to sign and go forward with; commissioner asked where the employees will park, not enough 9 hour meters in the Rhinette lot, staff noted a current problem with parking availability in the Rhinette lot because some of it is being used as a staging area for the ;sewer project, applicant noted that there were also 9 hour parking meters in the Chula Vista lot and long term parking in the Caltrains lot on the north side of Broadway; do not want the employees to park in the parking designated for the restaurant; why could the applicant not get all the required parking spaces from the JPB; the spaces on the San Francisco water land were closer than elongating the lot on the JPB side, since were able to get from San Francisco did not pursue JPB; could you get more parking from the JPB, don't know if able to give more parking, lease was approved in January 1997, after commission turned down last project felt it was better to even out parking using San Francisco water land and not go back to JPB, try to preserve commuter parking on JPB land; if go before JPB need to amend the lease and add parking. Would you consider valet parking with this application, no if necessary will do but feel that 19 parking spaces is enough, after 11:00 a.m. the lot is unused and there are parking spaces in the Caltrain lot; agree spaces In City of Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes June g, lgyg are available but they are at the far end of the lot, a long walk away; CA Anderson noted that if provide valet parking on the street the applicant would have to come to the city for an additional permit. The concept of the proposed restaurant is a full service seafood bar and a rotisserie, full kitchen at the back to prepare entrees on the style of Aqua in San Francisco. Cathy Baylock, 1527 Newlands Avenue and Torn Carey, 1404 Floribunda, spoke. Think Pisces listened to the city, looked over the plans, thanks for restoring the building, parking seems adequate, proposed that they give a free desert to anyone who presents a Caltrain ticket as a promotion; happy that the plans have been revised from before and reflect the original architecture, like to keep the original integrity by making no changes to building, don't fill in the door on east side it could change character of the building keep it just the way it is. There were no further comments from the public and the public hearing was closed. C. Luzuriaga commented thanks to applicant for listening to the commission during the last review; diagram shows that parking stalls will work all right, have used them myself; he then moved approval of the special permit for a restaurant and a parking variance for number and dimension by resolution with the conditions in the staff report with revisions suggested by the city planner and adding a condition directing that the employees not park in the 19 parking spaces designated for the restaurant. The motion was seconded by C. Vistica. Discussion on the motion: pleased with this application, love to have this in the Broadway commercial area, the parking condition is existing and has been used that way for a long time, it is good to have the accurate dimension on record, would prefer that the landscaping at the comer of California and Broadway be in grass rather than ground cover; would like to add a condition that the landscaping be in grass; CA pointed out that ground cover was a suggestion, if make grass a condition the applicant has no choice; in light of that: note concern has been expressed about preferring grass but not want to limit options over time so withdraw request to add a condition.
