Applicant: Robert Edwards Jr. APN: 025-271-050, -060, -070 &-080 Architect: n/a Lot Area: 4.32 acres Property Owner: Frank Edwards Co. Inc. Zoning: RR, Automobile Sales and Service Overlay Area North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan: Industriat & Associated Office Use — Auto Row Overlay District Adjacent Development: Warehouse, distribution and parking in drainage right-of-way Environmental Review Status: The project is Categorically Exempt from review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Section 15301, which states that existing facilities, consisting of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency's determination are exempt from environmental review. Existing Use: Commercial Recreation Facility (GoKart Racer, indoor kart racing) Allowable Use: Automobile sales and service, air courier service, light industrial or manufacturing use, labs, office uses in conjunction with a permitted use, service businesses, warehouses; commercial recreation use allowed with a conditional use permit. Site Description and History: The subject property consists of four commonly owned parcels at the corner of David and Adrian Roads with addresses of 1541 and 1561-1565 Adrian Road. Two existing buildings and their associated parking spaces, which extend across property lines, cause a de facto merger of all four parcels. The owner of the subject property also owns a 140 foot (width) x 646 foot (length) portion of the drainage right-of-way located west of the subject property. The building at 1541 Adrian Road is occupied by GoKart Racer, an indoor kart racing facility. A portion of this building (2000 SF) is used by the property ownerto store personal goods. The building at 1561-1565 Adrian Road is occupied by office, warehouse and showroom uses. There are a total of 81 parking spaces on the project site. The required on-site parking for the property owner's storage use (2 parking spaces) at 1541 Adrian Road and the office, warehouse and showroom uses (49 parking spaces) at 1561-1565 Adrian Road is provided on-site. The required parking for GoKart Racer (71 parking spaces) is provided both on-site (30 spaces) and off-site in the adjacent drainage right-of-way at 960 David Road (41 spaces); please refer the attached originally approved Site Plan. An application for a Conditional Use Permit, Parking Variance and Landscaping Variance for a commercial recreation facility (GoKart Racer) was approved by the Planning Commission on March 24, 2003. GoKart Racer has been in operation at this location since November 2003. The Parking Variance granted by the Planning Commission was for 41 parking spaces (30 on-site parking spaces provided where 71 on-site spaces were required). To mitigate the Parking Variance, the applicant agreed to provide 43 off-site parking spaces in #he drainage right-of-way at 960 David Road. This off-site parking area is only accessed by a separate driveway off David Road and is fenced off from the rest of the drainage right-of-way. As required by the conditions of approval, the applicant entered into a lease agreement for 43 parking spaces at 960 David Road. 960 David Road is approximately two acres in size and much of it was graded and paved for parking many years ago. As noted above, GoKart Racer currently leases the eastern portion of the site (43 spaces). The other portions of the 960 David Road property are leased to other entities. For reference, the front, western portion of lot was to be used by FlightCar for vehicle storage (41 spaces), but Flightcar has since vacated the property; the remainder of the paved lot is associated with the Unga family for vehicle storage (rear, western portion of lot). Amendment to Conditional Use Permit Amendment and Parking Variance 1541 Adrian Road Proposed Amendment: After operating at the site for 11 years, GoKart Racer revisited the parking demand at this facility and is now requesting an amendment to a previously approved Conditional Use Permit and Parking Variance to reduce the number of required parking spaces provided, specifically: ■ To reduce the number of required off-site parking spaces located in the drainage right-of-way at 960 David Road from 43 to 20 parking spaces (supported by a Parking Demand Study prepared by Sandis Engineering, dated January 27, 2015); includes relocating the off-site parking location from the eastern to the western portion of the site. Please refer to the attached Site Diagram, date stamped February 4, 2015. Planning staff would note that in April 2014, the City Council granted a Conditional Use Permit to allow FlightCar to store 41 vehicles in the western portion of the site at 960 David Road. However, FlightCar has ceased use of the property, and the property owner confirms in his letter dated February 3, 2015 that FlightCar does not have a lease to store their vehicle there. With this application, GoKart Racing is not proposing any additional changes to their operations, building (either interior or exterior) or landscaping. The applicant is now requesting the following applications: ■ Amendment to Conditional Use Permit to revise the condition of approval which requires providing 43 off- site parking spaces at 960 David Road (20 off-street parking spaces proposed); and ■ Amendment to Parking Variance for elimination of 23 off-site parking spaces at 960 David Road. There will be a total of 50 parking spaces proposed for the commercial recreation facility where 71 parking spaces are required (30 on-site spaces provided at 1541 Adrian Road and 20 off-site parking spaces at 960 David Road). The portion of the lot used as vehicle storage for the Unga family can only be accessed through the portion of the site proposed to be utilized by GoKart Racer. As a Condition of Approval, GoKart Racer will need to allow the Ungas to continue to access its portion of the lot through the GoKart Racer lot. Parking Demand Study: The applicant hired Sandis to conduct a Parking Demand Study of the business as it is currently in operation (refer to attached study dated January 27, 2015). The purpose of the study was to examine the existing site parking demand, primarily during peak demand hours, and to determine the impact in the reduction of parking spaces dedicated to the site. The Parking Demand Study was reviewed by the City's Engineering Program Manager. In his memo dated February 18, 2015, he notes that "the Public Works — Engineering Division is in concurrence with the conclusions and justifications present in the analysis." There are a total of 32 parking spaces provided at 1541 Adrian Road (15 parking spaces located on the north end of the site and 17 parking spaces on the south end of the site). Staff would note that 30 spaces are for GoKart Racing and 2 spaces are for the property owners' storage space. There are an additional 8 motorcycle parking spaces provided at the north end of the site. In its study, Sandis included the motorcycle spaces and therefore reflects a total of 40 on-site parking spaces. Sandis conducted an occupancy survey of the parking spaces during peak use periods to determine the peak parking demand. Peak use periods were identified to be Thursday evenings from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Occupancy data in Table 1 of the Parking Demand Study indicate that the off-street parking demand is minimal even during peak use periods and did not exceed two (2) vehicles. The study also showed that no vehicles were observed in the off-site lot at 960 David Road. In addition to on-site parking counts, the survey also included data collection of on-street parking spaces within the business vicinity, which varied from 4 to 23 vehicles during the collection periods. Sandis notes that given the minimal parking demand observed on the subject property and at 960 David Road, it is likely that some patrons of GoKart Racer are parking on the street. Sandis also notes that a conservative analysis of the parking demand would be to assume that all on-street parking collected within the vicinity is associated with GoKart Racer. Using this assumption, the combined on-street/off-street peak parking demand requires 24 parking spaces and occurs on Saturday between 4:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. (see Table 1 of Parking Demand Study). Since 32 parking spaces are 2 Amendment to Conditional Use Permii Amendment and Parking Variance 1541 Adrian Road provided on-site, the existing parking on-site has adequate capacity to meet the peak use parking demand for the facility without requiring the use of on-street parking (24 parking spaces based on the Parking Demand Study). Although based on the study no additional parking spaces would be required beyond those provided on the subject property, the applicant is still proposing to provide 20 spaces at 960 David Road as potential overFlow parking. In conclusion, Sandis Engineering notes that "given the fact that there are spaces available within the Facility parking lots during peak hours of operation and adequate on-street parking within the property vicinity, a parking variance is warranted to reduce the required parking space supply for the Facility." Staff Comments: This application was placed directly on the regular action calendar because it includes a request for an amendment to a previously approved Conditional Use Permit and Parking Variance. If the Commission feels there is a need for the applicant to provide additional information, this item may be continued to a future meeting. See attached original memos from the Chief Building Official, Fire Marshal and Recycling Specialist.

Burlingame, CA 94010 February 3, 2015 Mr. William Meeker City of Burlingame Community Development Director 501 Primrose Road Burlingame, CA, 94010 Re: C.U.P. Parking Requirement Amendment Dear Mr, Meeker, ���I��� �Es - 4 z��� CkTY OF BURLWGAME CDD-PLANNING DIV. We are the owner of the GoKart Racer building, commonly known as 1541 Adrian Road, Burlingame. I am also the owner of the large, paved and fenced parking lot to the West of the building, commonly known as 960 David Road. Per the C.U.P. for the GoKart Racer, I was required to provide forty three (43) off-site parking spaces. These spaces were provided in the Eastern section of the above referenced lot and are shown on the aerials attached hereto with the C.U.P. Amendment Application. GoKart Racer has little to no need for the off-site spaces. Though the parking study attached hereto confirms that no off-site parking is needed, we are still providing twenty (20) off-site spaces. These spaces will be located on the left or Western side of the lot and this area can also be clearly seen on the attached aerials. This Western section of the lot is available and there is no tenant utilizing the spaces, including Flight Car, whom is not using the lot and has no lease to do so. Please call me directly if you have any questions regarding the proposed amendment.

The intent of the parking demand study (Study) prepared for the GoKart Racer Facility in Burlingame (Facility) is to evaluate the actual parking demand of the Facility in comparison to the Facility parking requirements per the Conditional Use Permit (CUP). The CUP currently requires the Facility to provide 43 parking spaces in addition to the 40 spaces provided within the Facility property extents. This letter provides a summary of the findings of this Study as well as recommendations related to the Facility parking supply. Facility Overview GoKart Racer is an indoor racing facility featuring three separate tracks and a variety of race types. The Facility is located at 1541 Adrian Road within the City of Burlingame and has been successfully operated in this location since November of 2003. There are a total of four access points to the Facility, including two combined ingress/egress driveways along Adrian Road, one ingress only along Adrian near the intersection with David Road, and one egress only along David Road. Refer to Figure 1 for a layout of the Facility. Current Parking Supply and Requirements Off-street parking for the Facility is currently provided in three locations. Twenty-three (23) parking spaces are located along the northern extents of the property (Northern Lot). This includes four rows of 90 degree angled parking separated by two drive aisles. Access to these spaces is provided by two driveways located along the southern side of Adrian Road. There are three (3) accessible spaces included within the Northern Lot extents. A second onsite lot (Southern Lot) is located within the southern extents of the property and includes seventeen (17) angled parking spaces. Access to this lot is provided by an ingress only driveway at the intersection of Adrian Road and David Road. A one-way drive aisle runs through the lot and exits onto David Road. A satellite parking facility located immediately south of the Facility along David Road (Satellite Lot) currently provides forty-three (43) parking spaces for the Facility. Parking spaces within this Satellite Lot are shared with several nearby businesses. Figure 1 provides an overview of the location and layout of these current parking facilities. In addition to off-street parking, there is ample on-street parking available within the vicinity of the Facility. The parking requirements for the commercial recreational usage of the property were adopted as part of the original CUP in 2003 for GoKart Racer. This original CUP requires a commercial recreational use located at the property to lease forty-three (43) parking spaces from the property located at 960 David Road (Satellite Lot) in addition to the spaces provided on the 1541 Adrian Road property. Facility Parking Demand Survey In order to understand the Facility peak parking demand, an occupancy survey was conducted of the Facility parking spaces during peak use periods. Peak use periods were identified to be Thursday evenings between 6pm and 9pm and Saturdays between 11 am and 6pm. Occupancy data was collected for half hour increments within these time periods. Review of Table 1 will indicate that the off-street parking demand is minimal even during peak use periods and did not exceed two (2) vehicles. It should be noted that no vehicles were observed to use the Satellite Lot during the parking study. In addition to off-street parking facilities, the survey also included data collection for on-street parking spaces within the Facility vicinity. Counts for vehicles parked along Adrian Road and David Road varied from four (4) to twenty-three (23) vehicles during the collection periods. 636 9"' Street � Oakland, CA 94607 � P. 510.873.8866 � F. 510.873.8868 / www.sandis.net � S A N D I S I�LANMl�y'S EERS January 27, 2015 Robert Edwards 614121.01 Page No. 2 Given the minimal off-street parking demand observed on the property during the survey, it is likely that some patrons of the GoKart Racer facility are utilizing on-street parking. A conservative analysis of the Facility parking demand would be to assume that all on-street parking collected within the property vicinity is associated with the Facility. Using this assumption, the combined on-streeUoff- street peak parking demand requires twenty-four (24) parking spaces and occurs on Saturday between 4:30pm and 5:30pm. It should be noted that this peak use demand is very conservative in that the likelihood of all on- street vehicles being associated with the Facility is low. Refer to Table 1 for complete breakdown of the occupancy survey data collected for the Facility. Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Measures Transportation demand management (TDM) measures are design and programmatic elements commonly employed to reduce the overall volume of single occupant vehicle (SOV) trips to and from a site. These measures can range from carpooling incentives to enhanced pedestrian and bicycle facilities to transit subsidies. The Facility currently has several TDM design features including: reduced building setbacks, adequate sidewalk facilities nearby and connections from the building to these facilities. In addition, the majority of patrons of the Facility come in groups within the same vehicle. Conclusion and Recommendations Review of the peak occupancy parking data collected for the Facility will indicate the actual peak demand is significantly less than the current parking supply provided as required by the property CUP. The conservative analysis identified the maximum on-street/off-street parking demand to be twenty-four (24) parking spaces, while the Northern and Southern parking lots provide a total of forty (40) off-street parking spaces. These lots have adequate capacity to meet the peak use parking demand for the facility. Field observations indicate the Satellite Lot is not utilized during peak use hours. It should be noted that, while a portion on-street parking spaces within the vicinity of the property were observed to be utilized during the parking survey, several on-street spaces remained available during this period. This would indicate on-street parking facilities typically have capacity during the Facility's peak demand periods. Given the fact that there are spaces available within the Facility parking lots during peak hours of operation and adequate on-street parking within the property vicinity, a parking variance is warranted to reduce the required parking space supply for the Facility. As the Facility parking lots currently provide forty (40) parking spaces, it is our recommendation that the variance reduce the required parking space quantity to forty (40) parking spaces.

CP Monroe presented the report, reviewed criteria and staff comments. Ten conditions were suggested for consideration. CP Monroe pointed out that there was a 9,620 square foot area on the west side of the building at 1541 Adrian next to the SP right-of-way and E City of Burlingame Planning Commission Approved Minutes March 24, 2003 including the PiJE on the Adrian site which was visible from the street and also from the parking in the drainage area which could be landscaped. Adding irrigated landscaping to this area, along with the landscaping proposed by the applicant, would increase total landscaping on the site to the required 10%. CA Anderson asked that a condition be added that parking in the drainage area is at the risk of the people who paxk there because the purpose of the drain is flood control, and that the city should be held harmless. There were no other comments or questions ori the staff report. Chair Keighran opened the public hearing. Steve Markulin and Shaina Markulin applicants, Bruce Shelling, 1575 Adrian Road; Tony Van Arkel, 228 Stanley Road. Applicants noted that this was a good location and there was a need for more recreation opportunities in this area; asked for a clarification that children under 18 be allowed on the site after 6 p.m. with a parent or guardian in order to spectate, they would not be allowed to drive or play video games; the reason for the requested change is to further promote the activity as a family activity, family can come see father or mother drive; presence would be limited to the viewing area. Commission asked if the applicant would be willing to add the landscaping along the west side of the building, it would be good to eliminate a variance and meeting the landscape requirement is consistent with the objectives for this Subarea in the planning studies on going in the Rollins Road area at this time. Applicant noted that they were not aware they could landscape this area, and would do so if they could. Commission asked about the requested change in persons under 18 on the site after 6 p.m. Applicant noted want young people to be able to observe the activity any time when there with a parent or guardian but do not want unaccompanied children under 18 hanging out in the viewing area or arcade. The core of the business is adults, especially in the evenings. Other testimony: have a business in the area and was concerned about having to secure parking area because the Go Kart business would be a Mecca for kids, with alcohol aiid litter. Reassured to hear that it is an adult oriented facility, look to the commission to protect adjacent properties from impacts; for the past 6 or more yeaxs the area has been secure, without litter and graphite free. Been involved with this type of recreational activity, participants don't drink or use drugs; good activity for a family everyone is involved. Applicant responded appreciate concern about loitering, use should not be negative to the area, a clean, positive experience. There were no fiuther comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed. C. Vistica moved approval of the conditional use perxnit for recreation use in the M-1 zone and for a 41 space on-site parking variance with the mitigation that 43 parking spaces be paved and improved in the drainage area and connected by lease agreement with the commercial recreation use at 1541 Adrian Road to expire should the conditional use on the site be changed; and with the added conditions that the city be held harmless for damage to vehicles parked in drainage area, that 9, 600 SF of landscaped area be provided on the west side of the building between the building and SP right-of-way in order to eliminate the variance for 10% of the site being landscaped, that the permit shall be reviewed upon complaint and that the chiidren under the age of 18 be allowed only in the viewing area, on the site after 6 p.m: so long as they are accompanied by a parent or guardian; and with the conditions in the staff report, as modified, by resolution.
