CITY OF BURLINGAME Item # 5
SPECIAL PERMIT
Special Permit for Automobile Broker
Address: 808 Burlway Road, Unit 2
Meeting Date: 1/8/95
Request: Special Permit for wholesale automobile sales at 808 Burlway Road, Unit 2, zoned
O-M (C. S . 25.43.030 2) .
Applicant: Lynn Daley APN: 026-111-120
Property Owner: Nicholas and Stella Crisafi
Lot Dimensions and Area: ± 31,086 SF
General Plan: Industrial and Office Uses Zoning: O-M
Adjacent Development: Warehouses, offices and hotels
CEQA Status: Article 19. Categorically Exempt per Section: 15301 - Existing Facilities, Class
1(a), Interior or exterior alterations involving such things as interior partitions, plumbing, and
electrical conveyances.
Previous Use: Vacant tenant space in newly constructed building (fire damage replacement):
Total = 1,900 SF
Pro�osed Use: Auto broker with indoor automobile storage and wholesale sales:
Total = 1,900 SF
Allowable Use: Auto sales wholly enclosed within a warehouse requires a special permit.
Summary: The applicant is proposing an auto broker business at 808 Burlway Road. This
tenant will occupy Unit Two of the new warehouse/office building at 808 Burlway Road. The
new structure replaces the original building, which was destroyed by fire in September, 1994.
The total building is 15,231 SF (2,009 SF ofiice and 13,222 SF warehouse).A side setback
variance and percent landscaping variance were approved by the Planning Commission for the
new building in December 12, 1994 (January 5, 19951etter to Nicholas Crisafi from M. Monroe
and P.C. December 12, 1994 Minutes). Unit Two has 229 SF of office space (12%) and 1,671
SF of warehouse (88%). In the O-M district a special permit is required for an automobile sales
business wholly enclosed within a warehouse structure (C.S. 25.43.030 2). The proposed
automobile broker business will be enclosed within the new warehouse structure.
For the automobile broker business auto storage and wholesale sales will be conducted by
appointment only. Vehicles will be stored for no more than seven days at a time while waiting
for dealer auctions or sales to occur. The business is 90 % wholesale. Hours for the business
will be 1:00 p. m. - 5:00 p. m. Monday through Friday and 12:00 p. m. - 4:00 p. m. Saturday with
one to two employees part time. In five years he expects to have the same number of
1

_ �.

employees. The m�imum number of visitors and customers on site at any one time is projected
to be three (customer and two employees).
Currently there are 28 parking stalls on site where 20 are required for the entire building. Based
on the office/warehouse square footage the proposed use in Unit 2 requires three (3) parking
stalls. Two parking spaces are to be reserved for Unit 2. The code does not a11ow any of the
on site parking to be used for automobile display. All of the stalls are located in the parking
lot to the south of the building. Access to the parking lot is from Burlway Road. Part of the
parking stalls back up into a shared access driveway with 826 Burlway Road. A covenant to
grant an easement to insure the required back up area for each parking lot, was approved by the
City Council on March 6, 1995.
PROPOSED
Use:
auto sales &

a warehouse
Parking:
28 stalls
(2 assigned to
Unit Two)
E%ISTING
vacant
28 stalls
ALLOWED/REQ'D
* special permit
for auto sales enclosed
within a warehouse
20 stalls
* Special permit for auto sales located wholly within a warehouse structure.
Meets all other zoning code requirements.
Staff Comments: The Fire Marshal indicates (December 18, 1995 memo) that the automobile
storage area must meet the ventilation standards of the 1991 Uniform Fire Code. The Chief
Building Inspector notes (December 4 and 15, 1995 memos) that he has no comments on the
tenant improvements but indicates that signage will require a separate permit. The previous
building permit for the stru�ture has still not been finaled (#9501090). The City Engineer had
no comments (December 4, 1995 memo).
Planning staff would note that the designation of on site parking to this business might encourage
this or a future tenant (same type of business) to use one or more of these spaces for auto
display. The Department of Motor Vehicles has changed the automobile display requirements
for automobile sales businesses recently requiring a designated display area. Clearly we do not
want this to occur in the required parking.
Study Meeting: At the January 8, 1996 Planning Commission study meeting the commission
asked about the two designated parking stalls. The applicant has responded in his January 12,
19961etter that the two stalls will be used for employee and customer parking. Typically there
2

is only one employee at the business at one time leaving the other sta11 for a customer.
With regards to wholesale automobile sales the applicant has indicated in his 7anuary 12, 1996
letter that he buys used cars from dealers and sells them to wholesale auctions in the East Bay.
He occasionally finds one car that is worth selling individually at retail but usually sells cars in
greater quantities of five to six at a time.
Required Findings for a Special Permit:
In order to grant a Special Permit the Planning Commission must find that the following
conditions exist on the property (Code Section 25.52.020 a-c):
(a) the proposed use, at the proposed location, will not be detrimental or injurious to
property or improvements in the vicinity, and will not be detrimental to the public
health, safety, general welfare, or convenience;
(b) the proposed use will be located and conducted in a manner in accord with the
Burlingame general plan and the purposes of this title;
(c) the Planning Commission may impose such reasonable conditions or restrictions as it
deems necessary to secure the purposes of this title and to assure operation of the use in
a manner compatible with the aesthetics, mass, bulk and character of existing and
potential uses on adjoining properties in the general vicinity.
Planning Commission Action: The Planning Commission should hold a public hearing.
Affirmative action should be taken by resolution. The reasons for any action should be clearly
stated. At the public hearing the following conditions should be considered:
Conditions:
1. that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department

In their discussion commissioners noted that Hyatt needed some time to..get a return on their investment
because the UBC required installation of the temporary tent as a perr��ent installation; not like the idea
of a parking variance for this kind of floor area expansion and availability of replacement pazking sources
to code dimensions and on-site for the 23 under the tent is un,ci`��ar; availability of parking on-site is a
���
problem some times with or without the tent; allowing the�p�ahning temporary permit for mor�ime to
assess the availability of parking on-site, the effective us�'f�f the off-site lots seems feasibl���'"a review
or a complaint basis is also considered; life span of tlie �tent structure covering is 10 years; a parking
variance for this land use would encourage other hpte�s to put in similar temporary fac�ties; in required
parking. �;;;. � .
� �
C. Mink moved to extend the temporary pefmit for the tent located in the parking lot at the Hyatt for 10
years from the date of this approval pro�iding the pernut was reviewed annually or upon complaint for
.�:,
compliance with the conditions, off- , te parking agreements at One Bay Plaza and the West States
Building, for after hours use of th � parking lots, are executed and mauitained and a plan showing all
on-site parking is submitted to c��planning staff with the following amended conditions: 1) that the tent
as installed shall match the p s submitted to the Planning Degartment and date stamped October 27,
1994, Sheet C-4T Tent Si lan, Sheet 1 Tent Elevations a�d'�Plan, and Sheet A3.1 Hotel Elevations;
2) that the conditions of tj� City Engineers' October 28, 1994 memo and the Chief Building Inspectors'
October 31, 1994 me d`�ahall be met; 3) that all employees shall be encouraged to park in the off-site
parking lot during n,�office hours, when all the parking spaces at the hotel site are full; 4) that the tent
and its use shall m�' all the requirements of the Uruform Building and Uniform Fire Codes as amended
{:, .
by the City of B�#i�lingame; 5) that the tent shall .be permitted at this location as a temporary use for 10

6. SIDE SETBACK AND LANDSCAPING VARIANCE AT 808 BURLWAY ROAD, ZONED O-M
(I�TICHOLAS CRISAFI, PROPERTY OWNER AND APPLICANT)
Reference staff report, 12/12/94, with attachments. CP Monrce discussed the request, reviewed criteria,
Planning Department comments, and study meeting questions. Four conditions were suggested for
consideration. CE suggested a covenant be recorded.
Chm. Galligan opened the public hearing. Mr. Crisafi was present to respond to the commissioners'
questions. He is in agreement with the recordation of a covenant to insure continued access to the backup
area of the row of parking next to the property line. He also explained that there were two sets of plans.
The one at study showed 13 % landscaping and 20 (the minimum required) parking spaces. The second
plan he preferred with 8.5 % landscaping (where 15 % is required) and 29 parking spaces because the
additional parking was better for him than landscaping within the parlang area that no one could see from
the street. There were no other comments and the public hearing was closed.
In their discussion the Planning Commissioners noted that under the terms of the 0-M district regulations
the extra parking provided could be used to intensify the uses (i.e., add more office) on-site in the future,
-5-
i
Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes December 12, 1994
by granting variance for building already allow 1800 SF more structure on-site than other properties,
should provide landscaping (13 %) to soften; might consider a condition about requiring Planning
Commission review if use on-site is intensified; what is the unusual circumstance for side setback and
landscape deficiencies, the purpose of the non-conforming section of the code is to get compliance after
a fire, there is no compelling need for the variances, no excuse not to comply, Prefer the November 17
plan with more landscape, it represents an honest attempt to comply.
C. Mink moved to grant the side setback variance and variance for 13 % landscape as shown on the
November 17, 1994 plans with a recorded covenant to provide a 24' backup aisle on the adjacent properiy
at 826 Burlway Road, by resolution, with four conditions: 1) that the project shall be built as shown on
the plans submitted to the Planning Department and date stamped October 21, 1994 Pazldng Layout with
8.5 % landscaping (2,638 SF) and Noyember 17, 1994, Sheet 2, Floor Plan; 2) that the driveway covenant
shall be recorded on both properties so if either parcel is sold the shared back up aisle remains for
parking spaces 15 through 29; 3) that the project shall meet all conditions set forth in the Fire Marshal's
memo dated October 24, 1994 and the Building Official's memo dated October 24, 1994; and 4) that the
project shall meet all Uniform Building and Uniform Fire Code requirements as amended by the City.
Motion was seconded by C. Jacobs and passed on a 6-0-1 (C. Ellis absent) roll call vote. Appeal
procedures were advised.
One commissioner noted that he prefened parking to landscaping in this area in part because the
landscaping would not be visible from the street and because of pazlang problems. It was also noted that
employees should have landscaping to enjoy as well.

1. Exp/ain why the proposed use at the proposed /ocation wi// not be detrimenta/ or injurious to
property or iinprovements in the vicinity or to pub/ic hea/th, safety, genera/ we/fare, oi
convenience.
How will the proposed structure or use within the structure affect neighborin� properties or structures on those
propertiest If neighboring properties will not be affected, state why. Think about traffic, noise, lighting, paving,
landscapin� sunlipht/shade, views from neighboring properties, ease of maintenance.
Why will the structure or use within the structure not affect the public's health, safety or general welfare7
Public health includes such things as sanitation (�arbaqel, air quality, discharges into sewer and stormwater systems,
water supply safety, and things which have the potential to affect public health (i.e., underground storage tanks,
storape of chemicals, situations which encourape the spread of rodents, insects or communicable diseases).
Public ssfetv. How will the structure or use within the structure affect police or fire protection7 Will alarm systems
or sprinklers be installedl Could the structure or use within the structure create a nuisance or need for police services
(i.e., noise, unruly qatherings, loitering, traffic) or fire services (i.e., storage or use flammable or hazardous materials,
or potentially dangerous activities like welding, woodwork, engine removal).
Genera/ we/fare is a catch-all phrase meaning community good. Is the proposal consistent with the city's policy and
goals for conservation and development7 Is there a social benefit?
Convenience. How would the proposed structure or use affect public convenience (such as access to or parkin� for
this site or adjacent sites)7 Is the proposal accessible to particular segments of the public such as the elde�ly or
handicapped7
2. How wi// the proposed use be /ocated and conducted in accordance with the Bur/ingame Genera/
P/an and Zoning Ordinance7
Ask the Planninp Department for the �eneral plan designation and zoning district for the proposed project site. Also
ask for an explanation of each. Once you have this information, you can compare your proposal with the stated
designated use and zoning, then explain why this proposaf would "fit" accordingly.
3. How wi// the proposed project be compatib/e with the aesthetics, mass, bu/k and character of the
existing neighborhood and potentia/ uses on adjoining properties in the geneia/ vicinityT
How does the proposed structure or use compare aesthetically with existing neighborhood7 If it does not affect
aesthetics, state why. If chan�es to the structure are proposed, was the addition desipned to match existinp
a�chitecture, pattern of development on adjacent properties in the neighborhood7 If a use will affect the way a
neighborhood or area looks, such as a long term airport parking lot, compare your proposal to other uses in the area
and explain why it "fits".
How does the proposed structure compare to neighboring structures in terms of mass or bulkl If there is no change
to structure, say so. If a new structure is proposed, compare its size, appearance, orientation etc. with other
structures in the neighbo�hood or area.
How will the structure or use within the structure change the character of the neighborhood? Think of character as
the image or tone established by size, density of development and general pattern of land use. Will there be more
traffic or less parking available resulting from this use7 If you don't feel the character of the neighborhood will change,
state why.
How will the proposed project be compatible with existinp and potential uses in the peneral vicinity? Compare your
project with existin� uses. State why you feel your project is consistent with other uses in the vicinity, and/or state
why your project would be consistent with potential uses in the vicinity.
