City of Burlingame Item No. 7
Amendment to Design Review and Hillside Area Construction Permit Regular Action
Address: 2600 Summit Drive Meeting Date: May 13, 2013
Request: Application for Amendment to Design Review anc� Hillside Area Construction Permit for changes to a
previously approved first and second story addition to an existing single family dwelling, including a
new deck area off the rear of the house.
Applicant and Designer: Jesse Geurse, Geurse Conc.eptual Design Inc.
Property Owner; John Gumas
General Plan: Low Density Residential
AP N : 027-014-100
Lot Area: 82,342 SF
Zoning: R-1
�nvironmental R�view Status: The project is Categorically Exempt from review pursuant to the California
Environmeotal Quality Act (CEQA), per Article 19 Section: 15301 Class 1(e)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines, which
states that additions to existing structures are exempt provided the addition will not result in an increase of more
than 10,000 SF provided all public services and facilities are available and that the area in which the project is
located is not environmentally sensitive.
Project Background: An application for Design Review, Hillside,4rea Construction Permit and Special Permits
for height and attached garage for first and second story addition to an existing single family dwelling at 2600
Summit Drive was approved by the Planning Commission on June 28, 2010 (June 28, 2010, Planning
Commission Meeting Minutes attached). A building permitwas issued on May 30, 2012, and construction is now
underway.
On September 10, 2012, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved an FYI for 2600 Summit Drive, that
included removing all grids from the windows and doors at the rear elevation and on the windows and doors
towards the rear of the left elevation and to change the size of the glass doors at the rear of the house
(September 10, 2012, FYI memo attached).
On November 13, 2012, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved a second FYI for 2600 Summit Drive.
That FYI approval included: adding an uncovered balcony ofFthe second floor Master bedroom towards the rear
corner of the house, which included replacing some windows with French doors, and which enlarged the
approved lot coverage and floor area ratio by 70.1 SF (6,586 SF, 0.08 FAR proposed); removing a windowfrom
the garage along the front elevation; reducing the size of several windows along each elevation; and removing
the shed roof extension from the turret off the formal dining room (November 13, 2012, FYI memo attached).
Proposed Revisions: The applicant is now requesting an Amendment to Design Review and Hillside Area
Construction Permit for a new proposed deck addition off the rear of the house that will be greater than 30"
above adjacent grade and will therefore count towards the proposed setback and lot coverage calculations. The
portions of the proposed deck addition that will exceed 30" from adjacent grade will be set back a minimum of
15'-4" from the rear property line and will add 484 SF to the overall lot coverage on the property (6.3°/o lot
coverage proposed, where 5.8% lot coverage was originally approved). The overall height ofthe proposed deck
addition will range from at grade to over 10' above adjacent grade in certain locations due to the slope on the lot.
Please refer to the attached letter and revised plans submitted by the applicant, dated May 1, 2013, for an
explanation of the proposed new deck addition.
Summary (based on plans submitted May 1, 2013): This large and oddly-shaped lot is located at the corner of
Summit Drive and Belvedere Court in the Hillside Area. The narrow portion of the lot, along Summit Drive, is
considered to be the lot front.
The applicant is proposing a first and second story addition to the existing two-story, 3,997 square foot single-
family dwelling. On the first floor, the applicant is proposing to reconfigure the interior and add a formal dining
room, entry hall and turret, and new garage to the front of the structure. On the second floor, the applicant is
proposing to add a hallway, master bath and closets, and an additional bedroom. With the proposed addition,
the floor area will increase to 6,516 SF (0.08 FAR) where the zoning code allows a maximum of 8,000 SF (0.10
Amendment to Design Review and Hillside Area Consfruction Permit 2600 Summit Drive
FAR). The proposed project is 1,484 SF below the maximum allowable floor area. The proposed structure will
be 33'-4" above the average top of curb, which requires a Special Permit.
With this project, there is no increase to the number of potential bedrooms proposed (five existing). Three
parking spaces, two of which must be covered, are required on site. Two covered parking spaces (20' x 20' clear
interior dimensions) will be provided in the new attached garage, and the required uncovered parking space (9' x
20') will be provided in the driveway. All other Zoning Code requirements have been met. The applicant was
approved for the following applications on June 28, 2010:
■ Design Review for a first and second story addition to a single family dwelling (CS 25.57.010, a, 5);
■ Hillside Area Construction Permit for a first and second story addition (C.S. 25.61.020);
■ Special Permit for an attached garage (C.S. 25.26.035, a); and
■ Special Permit for building height between 30' and 36' (33'-4" proposed) (C.S. 25.26.060, a, 1).

re: Response to Planning Commission's recommendations per meeting minutes
on April 8, 2013 Planning Commission Meeting
Dear Members of the City of Burlingame Planning Commission,
We thank you for your concerns and suggestions made with regard to our application for design
review for the proposed rear deck extension to the residence located at 2600 Summit Drive.
We too, are architecturally sensitive and very eager to address your concerns. We had revised
the plans in accordance to your recommendations. We hope that you fmd the revised project
acceptable for approval. Please see below for response to changes.
In response to your particular recommendations:
1•"Impacts will be illustrated by story poles. "
a) Response: Deck story poles have been installed for visual impact.
2• `Neighbor concern about deck"
a) Response: Deck story poles have been installed and a call has been made to Anne
Mahnken for a site visit. Mr. John Gumas had also demonstrated to Anne that the deck
would not be visible due to vegetation and trees. We had also placed a call to lower
neighbor that would be most impacted by deck extension.
3• "Plotting of lower neighbor residence on plans"
a) Response: Location of lower neighbor below the Gumas residence has been located on site plan
to demonstrate location of house in accordance to proposed deck. We had also shown the
location of the house on exterior elevation and section.
Thank you for this opportunity to further consider our proposed addition. Should you have
additional questj,6n� or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at 650-703-6197

APPLICANT AND DESIGNER; JOHN GUMAS, PROPERTY OWNER) STAFF CONTACT: ERICA
STROHMEIER
Reference staff report dated April 8. 2013, with attaehments. Associate Planner Strohmeier, briefly
presented the project description.
Questions of staff:
■ none
' Chair Gaul opened the public comment period.
Jesse Geurse, Burlingame, represented the applicant:
■ The purpose of the deck is not only to gather more space off the pool, but also replace existing
guardrails that are deteriorating at the back of the residence.
■ We've designed the deck extension that curves away from the adjacent neighbor down below.
■ Reason for the design orientation of the deck is a public utility easement, so our area for expanding
the existing pool deck is very limited. Designed for minimal impact on the neighbor down below.
Questions of applicant:
■ It says it's 30 feet above natural grade on the site plan, but then on the section and elevation it
doesn't look like it's anything close to that. (Geurse: No, it should be 30 inches.)
■ Does the deck step down? (Geurse: Yes, it steps down 18 inches lower.)
■ Can you clarify the trees? It looks like there are some oak trees on the survey. (Geurse: The survey
is a different orientation than the site plan. The survey is on the site plan. The other vegetation
below deck is vast area of trees, brushes.)
■ Does the shaded area on the plans indicate the area of new deck? (Geurse: All the shaded area is
new deck. It distinguishes the area that would be 30 inches above grade and outward. There is a
dashed/hidden line, and beyond that would be anything above 30 inches over natural grade.)
■ In the proposed revision it says there will be added 484 square feet to the overall lot coverage, but
the deck shows 1,305 square feet. The difference is the area that is not 30 inches above grade?
(Geurse: yes)
Commission comments:
■ Curious how this is going to impact the property below, because I know there was some discussion
when they were doing an addition as well. Would it be possible to see the footprint or a portion of
the adjacent house on the site plan so we can get a better idea of how these two interFace?
(Strohmeier: Yes, we have plans for that house that you can use for that purpose.)
■ Looks like house next door has a deck that extends out pretty far too, as a plane of reference.
(Guerse: We could show that also. The idea of curving the deck was to get the majority of that deck
to sway away, and also the view overlooking the city.)
19
CITY OF BURLINGAME PLANNING COMMISSION — Approved Minutes Apri18, 2013
Public comments:
Anne Menken, Burlingame, spoke regarding this item:
■ Concerned project might block view. They are above, we are down low. We look out on a view of a
hill.
---- ■--Can't read plan, can't tell where it is �roing. (Submitted exhibit to the Commission). Diagonal lines
show the views.
Additional Commission comments:
■ It seems like something tha�would be very easy to stake out. Story poles would not need to be very
high because it's not a roof ridge that is being defined:
■ A story pole could show a height of a rail, and potentially where someone could be standing.
■ (Strohmeier: For a railing in a hillside area you have requested story poles.)
■ Would it be possible to visit the property and get a sense of what they are doing?
■ The contractor could spray a board and put it where the deck would be to give the neighbor a sense
of whether she would be able to see it.
There were no other comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed.
Additional Commission comments:
■ If we request story poles do they need to be surveyed? (Strohmeier: Only if you request that)
Chair Gaul re-opened the public comment period.
■ Is there a way to explain to the neighbor what the impacts might be? (Geurse: Yes, can place some
4 x 4s, stakes in a perimeter measured. Could have it surveyed so we know exactly where to show
the arch and throw in some stakes, paint them orange, 10 feet on center. "
■ It does not have to be certified by a surveyor. Go for the most extreme points.
There were no other comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed.
Additional Commission comments:
■ Don't understand what the big deal is with the story poles, if they're not surveyed. With the story
poles it's black and white. It's not that big a deal to do.
■ Looking to save them some money and time and keep the project moving.
■ Wants to make sure the neighbor is able to see it clearly.
■ Either way this is going to be coming back to us. This is a design review study.
■ There will be another hearing, so if there is an issue then we can call for story poles.
■ We can do site visits ourselves.
■ The neighbor came not saying that there would be a view blockage, but saying that she did not
know what the view impact would be. In that case it's just a clarification, and then if there is an issue
we can take it to the next step.
Commissioner Gaul made a motion to place the item on the RegularAction Calendar when complete.
This motion was seconded by Commissioner Bandrapalli.
Discussion of motion:

Re: Admenment to design review for new deck extension to the residence located at 2600
Su.minit Road for platuung and planning commission review and approval.
Dear Members of the City of Burlingame Planning / Planning Commission,
Please find enclosed a proposed new deck extension as an amendment to design review
for the above mentioned project that is still under construction. We are looking for
approval for the deck extension for the reason that we will be landscaping and hardscaping
the rear yard area and around the pool. The pool deck and coping are slated to be re-
hardscaped in lightweight stone pa�ers. In designing we would like to eXtend the rear
pool deck outward for larger surface area for the enjoyment of the pool surrounding. The
deck would also be surfaced with lightweight stone pavers to match the new pool
hardscape. We asked the conmlissioners to please review and approve the added deck
extension.
Thank you for your atfention regarding this project. Should you have additional questions
or concerns, p e do not hesitate to contact us at 650.703.6197
Sincerely,
Jesse Geur e I� � -
