The office would be open five days a veek, 9 to 5, vi[h tvo full time

place from this site. The publication is distributed free and is
supported by advertising. Planning Commission approved this special
use permit at its meeting of July 14. City Planner noted nine letters
in support of [his use were received after the s[aff report was
prepared.
Mayor Mangini opened the public heariag.
Marlene Douglas, applicant, reviewed that this is a newspaper focused
o¢ education and she felt it appropriate for a school site. The paper
highlights news of importance to parents and childrea, lists library
programs for example. They take advertising which helps pay for the
nevspaper, they are not a nanprofit organiza[ion hut so far they are
not a money making organization either. The school board has given
approval and she hoped council would approve also.
Mayor Mangini closed the public hearing.
Councilman Amstrup noted he had called this up for reviev, his concern
was [hat this was setting a precedent in alloving affice use in
residential areas. He did not questian the value of the paper but
thought it vould be better located in a commercial area.
Councilman Lembi said the use is consistent and compatible vith a
school site. The school board has given approval and it doeS no[ do
so lightly, they are very concerned about use being campatible with
the school neighborhood. Other council members agreed.
Councilman Lembi moved to uphold the Planning Commission approval.
Seconded by Councilvoman Barton, carried 4-1 on a roll call vote,
Cauncilman Amstrup voting no.

BACKGROUND•
Lisa Rosenthal and Marlene Douglas, representing Peninsula Parent,
Inc., a monthly newspaper serving the Daly City to Palo Alto area, are
requesting a special permit to locate the newspaper office in a 939 SF
classroom at Hoover School, 2220 Summit Drive, zoned R-1 (Code Sec. 25.
56.020). The office would be open five days a week, Monday through
Friday, 9:00 A.M, to 5:00 P.M. with two full time and one part time
employees. No printing or distribution would be done from this site.
The publication is free, has a monthly circulation of about 27,000
copies, and is supported by advertising.
-2-
In 1980 the city adopted Ordinance 1182 regulating the use of vacant
school sites (Code Sec. 25.56). Under this chapter of the code all
uses on school sites, other than public education or administration of
public education, require a use permit (Code Sec. 25.56.020). The code
goes on to describe the things that will be considered in reviewing and
granting such a use permit: neighborhood character; access to major
streets and public transportation; facilities available to lessee; type
of activity, hours of operation, number of regular visitors to the site
and number of employees; parking and traffic impacts on adjacent
streets; changes to the existing school district facility; possible
continued use of the school site facilities by neighborhood children
and adults; and any criteria developed by the school district
(attached).
PlanninQ Commission Action
At their meeting of July 14, 1986 the Planning Commission voted 4-1
(Commissioner Graham dissenting) to approve a use permit for office use
of a 939 SF area of Hoover School. In their discussion the
Commissioners noted: no complaints have been received regarding the
existing (two day care centers and a church/bible college) occupants of
the school; proposed use only employs two people and one part time, not
a problem; not object to organization oriented to children and schools
but opposed to commercial endeavor on school site, this appears to be
strictly a business; schools need revenue from vacant sites, this use
appears to have a minor impact, even though it is a business use in an
R-1 zone it has a school connection and a limited number of employees.

Item #1
MEMO T0: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: CITY PLANNER
SUBJECT: SPECIAL PERMIT FOR AN OFFICE USE AT HOOVER SCHOOL,
2220 SUMMIT DRIVE, ZONED R-1
Lisa Rosenthal and Marlene Douglas representing Peninsula Parent, Inc., a monthly
newspaper serving the Daly City to Palo Alto area, are requesting a special use permit
to locate the newspaper office in a 939 SF classroom at Hoover Elementary School,
2220 Summit Drive, zoned R-1 (25.56.020). The office would be open five days a week,
Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with two full-time and one part-time
employees. No printing would be done on this site. The newspaper is a monthly publi-
cation provided at no charge and with a circulation of about 27,000 copies. Distribu-
tion is handled from a partner's home in San Mateo.
STAFF REVIEW
City staff have reviewed this application. The Chief Building Inspector (June 9,
1986 memo) and Fire Marshal (June 6, 1986 memo) had no comments. The City Engineer
(June 9, 1986 memo) notes that the total parking demands for the site need to be
reviewed.
Planning staff would note that an office use such as proposed would not normally be
allowed in an R-1 zone. Home occupation permits, for example, allow only one house-
hold employee on site regularly. However, in the passage of Ordinance 1182 on July 7,
1980 (Code Sec. 25.56), it was noted by the City Attorney, "This ordinance will allow
any use of rented or leased vacant school property, but will require that such a use
shall have a use permit from the City after a noticed hearing." (City Attorney staff
memo June 5, 1980.)
APPLICANT'S LETTER
In their letter of June 12, 1986, the applicants noted that the classroom leased will
be used for the office and organizational base for the Peninsula Parent newspaper, a
monthly publication. Printing is done in San Jose. Hours of operation would be 9:00 a.m.
to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. They would park in the Hoover parking lot. The
two full-time employees now bring their pre-school children to the child care center
at Hoover School.
The applicants also included a copy of a letter they wrote to Dr. Black, Superintendent
of Schools, describing their publication's content and the need for additional space
so that they could relocate from a home office.
QUESTION AT STUDY
At their meeting on June 23, 1986, the Planning Commission studied this application
and asked a number of questions (Planning Commission minutes June 23, 1986).
It is a bit difficult to identify the number of people who are currently parking on
the site all day from trips generated to the site. In her memo, the Planner notes
that on weekdays there are 90 children in day care centers, plus 10 Bible students
on site. Staff for these centers, plus the Chinese Bible Evangel School, take 11
all-day parking spaces. To this would be added 3 from the newspaper office, for a
total demand of 14 long-term parking spaces. The YMCA day care facility (accommo-
-2-
dating 30 children and employing 3 adults) operates between September and June. Most
of their children are bused to the site. The use permit for the Hoover children's
center does not discuss busing or carpooling; this center serves pre-school children.
The use permit does note that there will be no parking on the Hutnick easement, and
all parking shall be on site.
On-site parking is to be provided on the playing fields, but in such a way that leaves
the center open for playground use. Fire lanes are marked on the access to this area
to keep people from parking so equipment is blocked from entry. The Hutnick easement
is the area where Summit and Easton Drives merge, where parking is striped on the
pavement outside of the school site.
The applicant told the Planner that the circulation of this monthly newspaper was
27,000. The copies are delivered to someone's home in San Mateo, where four drivers
pick them up and deliver them to distribution points. The paper is not delivered
door-to-door. The applicant will provide a copy of the publication at the public
hearing.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
The Planning Commission should hold a public hearing. Affirmative action should be
taken by Resolution. The reason for any action should be clearly noted. At the
public hearing the following conditions should be considered:
1. that the area leased for office use shall not exceed 939 SF and shall be limited
in use to 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, with a maximum of two
full-time and one part-time employees;
2. that all parking shall be provided in marked spaces on site, and no staff or
visitors shall use the parking on the Hutnick easement;
3. that the joint use of the bathroom facilities shall be satisfactorily worked out
with other tenants on the site; and
4. that this use permit shall be amended for any changes in operation, amount of
space leased or number of employees and shall be reviewed for compliance with
required conditions in one year (July 1987).

Dear Members of the Planning Commission:
In response to your request, I will clarify herein our intended
usa�e of the classreom sF�ace at Hoo�er Schc,ol. According t� the
Burlin9ame School Gistrict, the space rneasures 339 sq. ft.
The classroam �dill be used for the office and organizational
Gase for PEninsula Parent Newspaper. This monthly publir,�rion is
prin*.ed ir� San JUSl'� the office o.�ould be u=ed as a central base
for gatherin9, typing and =_c�rtin� infarmation for this
community-oriented publicatior� 6efore takir�q it to the printer.
�ur huurs of operatior� will be 9 am-5 pm Menday-Friday. We have
two full-time emplc�yees and hc�pe to ha�,+e a F�art-time secretary
whu wc�uld work two or threE half days sometime in the future. We
would park in the Hoo�er parking lat. {Incidentally, the two
full-tirnE empl�yees will each be brir��ing their preschool
children to Hoo�.�er Childrer�'s Center at the sarc�e location; thus
we will not be adding additional cars to the Hoo�er parking lot.)
Our office equipment will include three desks, two file
cabinets and a computer.
I hope this information is sufficient
clarification, please let me know.
If you need further
Sincerely yours,

I sp�ke with Betty in your office thia morning and she

LJe are currently lookin9 for office �pace to house the
orqanizational end of our parent new�paper. Betty mentioned that
tl-�ere is a classroum, appruximately 900 sq. ft, a�ailable at
Hoaver School. This space WOUld certainly fill our needs.
We are an educational public�tion that provides information on
community e�er�ts, cla=_ses ar�d suppc�rt qr��ups for parer�t=_, book
re��iews, mo�ie re�iewa, famil;� projects and farc�ily health. We
also feature a PTA column where PTH presidents can reF�ort on PTF+
projects and e�ents.
We ha�e been in existence for almost two vears and are starting
to outgrow ouT• currenr sGace, which is a home affice. 4le *.houqhx
it woul�� be appropriate *.o c�ntac*. the scha�31 districts for space
because of our Educational fu�us. We ha��e alreadv rnEt i•aith Dr.
Mandesian of San hlateo, who thought we would he excellent
ter�ants, t,ut unfortunately there is no sGace currer�tly a�ailable
in San Mateo.
All of our typesettin9 and printinq is done through our printer
in Red�.�ood City and San Jose. We would use the office sGace as a
clearin9hause and organizational base for our small staff.
I am encicsing a copy of our pu6lication for your information. I
look forward to hearing from you soon.

I understand that Peninsula Parent is requesting oifice
space from the Burlingame School District at Hoover School.
I find Pe��nsula Parent to be a wonderPul community resource.
Our staff and parents are always finding some useful information
in the newspaper Prom the articles, calendar, or advertisements.
Our parents especially are always commenting on its usefulness.
We think it would be very appropriate for the City of 3urlingame
to assist Peninsula Parent in obtaining office apace. It Sa a
fantastic newspaper.

As Coordinator of Perinatal Consumer Education Programming at

and services available to our expectant parents in the community.
Maternal care is the pivotal factor in the introduction into the

community services greatly assist the future mothers and fathers • ;��'
in forming their values. Media is a powerful means that impacts -
on these concepts. It is with this in mind that I would like to '�
add my support to the Editors of Peninsula Parent Newpaper and

Dear Friends:
As the Principal of a private school in Burlingame I have used the services
of the Peninsula Parent extensively. They are a valuable resource in the
community. I would encourage you to consider renting them space at Hoover
Elementary School so that the services they provide will still be
centralized in this community and also out of recognition for their
contribution as a sort of educational clearinghouse. Through their articles
and advertisements they serve an important need.
Thank you.

It has come to my attention that Peninsula Parent has applied
to the council for space as an organization base for their
publication.
Two years ago Peninsula Parent started as a resource for the
parents of our community. Since then its popularity and
readership has grown.
We at Mills-Peninsula Hospitals are proud to say we had input
in the earliest stages of Peninsula Parent as to what was needed
for those who live and work with young children in the San
Mateo/Burlingame community:
• Peninsula Parent without charcte advertises
health, safety and parentinq classes to our
families.
• Peninsula Parent provides without charge
hundreds of copies of COlYIl�t[7NITY RESOURCE
to the families with young children our
two hospitals service.
• Peninsula Parent utilizes our medical resources
to provide accurate information to these families.
It is my opinion that Peninsula Parent has been instrumental
in providing information to young families vital to their
emotional, physical and mental safety.

Honorable Members of the Council:
AUC 1 1986
�P
We are writing to you in support of the use permit to lease space at Hoover
School applied for by the owner and the publisher of Peninsula Parent. As
Burling�ne parents of two young children, we find very appropriate the use of
school space for the administrative offices of this parent newsletter.
Peninsula Parent provides informative, well-researched articles relevant to
children and child'-rearing. It is the only comprehensive source of information
on local programs and services for parents and children. The content of the
newsletter itself is then surely appropriate in relation to the use of school space.
Apparently a question has been raised over the profit-making nature of the
newsletter. In this instance, we cannot see how the profit status precludes
usage of school space. With only two full time employees, the owners of the
paper, this is hardly a large.corporate venture. Profit in this case seems to mean
simply that advertising is acce�ted and the revenue from that advertising is
used to pay for the cost of publishing the paper. It does not seem unreasonable
that people be reimbursed for a service they offer.
Further, we feel that much of the advertising itself is a service to parents
as many advertisers are small, local businesses with products or services for families
and children and which have few outlets for advertising these services. [de had a
wonderful birthday party for our four year old through a service advertised only in
Peninsula Parent and similarily, we found music and swim lessons for our ehildren
through advertisements in Peninsula Parent. This is the only newspaper in which we
review the ads as thoroughly as the articles: Articles and advertisements both
provide useful information.
We thus feel Peninsula Parent is a definite plus in our co�unity, is dixectly
related to the concerns of parents and children and is very appropriately seeking
space in a surplus school site. We would also like to note that our oldest child
is enrolled in an after-school program at Hoover School and we do not in the least
feel that that program will be in any way harmed by having the office of Peninsula
Parent as a neighbor in the building.
The School Board and District Superintendent, in agreeing to lease space to
Peninsula Parent, apparently concur with us in this matter, as did the Planning
Commission in giving majority approval to the use permit. We urge that you also
support the findings of these bodies'and give Council approval to this use permit.
Sincerely,

This is in response to your request to lease space at Hoover School.
I received the bid form and this information appears to meet the district
leasing criteria for one classroom at Hoover School.
You could begin the application process for a special use permit with the City
of Burlingame.
The rate for classroom space at Hoover school is $.34 per square foot per month.
The amount per month for 939 sq. ft, would be $319.26 plus utilities.

compensate for a variance; she was unable to make findings to support
the variance. C. Schwalm commented findings could be: to allow a more
efficient entrance into the hospital and Sequoias project and still
maintain more parking than they now have.
C. Jacobs moved to deny the two variances without prejudice. Second C.
Garcia; motion approved on a 5-1 roll call vote, C. Schwalm dissenting,
C. Taylor absent.
Appeal procedures were advised.
C. Schwalm moved that the Special Permit for a life care residential
facility for the elderly on a portion of the Peninsula Hospital site at
1781 E1 Camino Real be approved subject to revision of the project
entrance to E1 Camino Real and the 32 conditions as listed in the staff
report, and for adoption of Commission Resolution Approving Special
Permits. Motion died for lack of a second.
With the statement that the project has an FAR of 2.75 (commercial FAR
is 3.0); this is a dense project; code parking requirements are not
met; 55� of the 5.35 acre site is covered; the project is 150'-6" high,
the tallest building in the city; it is massive, the complete front of
the hospital will be covered; think applicant should try to work out
something better, a project without this much impact, C. Jacobs moved
to deny the Special Permit.
C. Schwalm moved to amend the motion to deny without prejudice. C.
Jacobs stated a revised project will take a great deal of staff time
and she felt the applicant should pay for this and not be denied
without prejudice. C. Garcia seconded the motion to amend; motion
failed on a 2-4 roll call vote, Cers Graham, Jacobs, Leahy, Giomi
dissenting, C. Taylor absent.
Motion to deny the Special Permit was approved on a 5-1 roll call vote,
C. Schwalm dissenting, C. Taylor absent. Appeal procedures were
advised.

Special Permit for Classroom Use of Hoover School - YMCA
2220 Summit Drive
���
I have reviewed this application for use of this site. In review of
previous application for this site, I have related concerns as to number
of trips generated by this site's usage, especially at peak hours.
This application will add some additional demands to the intersection
and the roadways. The amount is not at all clear from the application.
The exact cumulative demand shou7d be considered to determine if it is
acceptable. It may now be above that of original Hoover School usage,
although I am not aware of any complaints.
The following are conditions wf!ich should 'ue attached to any approvals:
1. As with previous applications, all parking shall be on site or in the
designated parking areas.
2. All loading and unloading of children shall be done on site to avoid
U-turns and children crossing the street.
3. A yearly review of the operation should be made.
