PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION 2025-02.24-7B
APPROVING MASTER SIGN PROGRAM FOR 1450 CHAPIN AVENUE
PROJECT NO. MSP25-0002
WHEREAS, an application has been made by Weidner CA, on behalf of Property Owner, DLC
Burlingame, for a Master Sign Program for a new sign above the first story on a multi-tenant
commercial building in the CAC (Chapin Avenue Commercial) zoning district, APN: 029-121-330; and
WHEREAS, on February 24, 2025, the Planning Commission of the City of Burlingame held a
duly noticed public hearing at which time it reviewed and considered the staff report and all other
written materials and testimony presented at said hearing; and
WHEREAS, on February 24, 2025, the Planning Commission of the City of Burlingame
reviewed and considered a Categorical Exemption under Section 15311(a) (Class 11 – Accessory
Structures) for the Project; and
NOW, THEREFORE, the Planning Commission of the City of Burlingame does here by resolve, find,
determine and order as follows:
SECTION 1: The project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) pursuant to Section 15311(a) (Class 11 – Accessory Structures) of the CEQA Guidelines,
which states that construction or placement of minor structures accessory to (appurtenant to) existing
commercial, industrial, or institutional facilities, including but not limited to on-premise signs, is exempt
from environmental review.
SECTION 2: City of Burlingame Municipal Code (BMC) authorizes the Planning Commission
to grant a Master Sign Program upon making certain findings. The Planning Commission finds the
following:
MASTER SIGN PROGRAM FINDINGS (BMC SECTION 25.42.060(D))
1. The master sign program complies with the purpose and intent of this section and chapter.
The proposed sign included in the Master Sign Program complies with the purpose and intent
of the regulations outlined in Burlingame Municipal Code, Code Section 25.42.060 D. 1.-8., in
that the placement of the sign does not obscure any building or window trim or any architectural
feature of the building, that the shape and design of the sign is compatible with the architectural
style of the building on which it is placed and matches the design of the existing sign at the
front of the building, that the size of the proposed sign is in proportion to the building façade ,
and that no more than one upper floor sign is proposed on the secondary frontage.
2. The master sign program does not allow any sign that is prohibited by
Section 25.42.040 (Prohibited Signs).
The proposed sign in the Master Sign Program is not a sign that is prohibited by
Section 25.42.040 (Prohibited Signs).

3. The master sign program standards will result in signs that are visually related or
complementary to each other and to the buildings and/or developments they identify through
the integration of predominant architectural materials, elements, or details of such buildings or
developments.
The proposed sign is complementary to the architectural style and details of the existing
commercial building and contributes to the overall image of the City, in that the proposed
materials of the sign, including fabricated stainless-steel letters with translucent vinyl, are
compatible with the building materials.
4. The signage shall make a positive visual contribution to the overall image of the City.
The proposed sign, located on the second floor of the building and visible to pedestrians and
vehicles, will contribute to the City’s image in the CAC zoning district.
5. Any deviations from sign standards are justified by unique circumstances or conditions
applicable to the property.
The deviations from sign standards are justified by unique circumstances or conditions
applicable to the property in that the sign is needed on the upper floor to identify the building
given its location near the corner of Chapin Avenue and El Camino Real, which are busy
roadways used by private and commercial vehicles.
6. The master sign program will not result in signs that would impair pedestrian and vehicular
safety.
The Master Sign Program will not result in signs that would impair pedestrian and vehicular
safety in that the bottom of the sign is located 19’-10” above grade, does not extend into any
public right-of-way or vehicular driveway, and does not contain any animated or changeable
copy or flashing lights.
7. Light and glare associated with the signs will not negatively affect nearby residential uses.
The light and glare associated with the sign will not negatively affect nearby residential uses
since there would be no direct lighting from exterior light fixtures (signs would be internally lit)
and the sign will not have animated or changeable copy or flashing lights.
SECTION 3: The Planning Commission of the City of Burlingame after conducting the public
hearing HEREBY APPROVES DSR25-0002 subject to the following conditions:
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
1. that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Division date
stamped January 10, 2025 sheets 1 through 17;
2. that any increase in the number or area of the signs shall be subject to Planning Division or
Planning Commission review (may require amendment to Master Sign Program);
3. that if the structure is demolished or the envelope changed at a later date, the Master Sign
Program associated with the building, as well as any other exceptions to the code granted here
will become void; and

4. that the project shall meet all the requirements of the California Building and Uniform Fire
Codes, in effect at time of building permit submittal, as amended by the City of Burlingame.
SECTION 4: The Master Sign Program approval shall be subject to revocation if the applicant
fails to comply with the conditions listed herein at any time. If, at any time, the Community Development
Director or Planning Commission determines that there has been or may be a violation of the findings
or conditions of this approval, or of the Zoning Regulations, a public hearing may be held before the
Planning Commission to review this approval pursuant to Zoning Regulation Section 25.88.050. At
said hearing, the Planning Commission may add conditions, or recommend enforcement actions, or
revoke the approval entirely, as necessary to ensure compliance with the Zoning Regulations, and to
provide for the health, safety, and general welfare of the community.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 24th day of February 2025.
