P.S. The City of Burlingame has gratuitously deferred sign code enforcement.
Sec. 22.20.Oi0(d) defines as a prohibited sign: "Signs ... carrying the
advertising of a person, product or service other ihan that of the occupant
of the land on wtiict� it is placed or �he building to which it is attached
except signs for the s�le or rental of the property except as otherwise.
provided, signs are permitted only to the actual occi�pant of the building
or property upon which the siyn is displayed d�.�rino the period of his
occupancy." Sec. 22.24.020 further �rohioits advertising disptays adj�cent
to a free��ay if such advertising is designed to be viev�ied primarily from the
freeway, not a locai road.

B5� thi� time you should l�iave received a ccpy of �the notice
to your lessee, Airport Marina Hote1, which coni�irms in writing the
Ci-Ly Council's decisi.on o� December 15, 1975, that the use of the
raof sig11 at 866 Burlway F:oad"will be allowed only un�il the terT�in-
ation of -their curr.ent lease, which we understand.to be Sertember 30,
1976.

The purpose of this let�er is to make it completely clear
that under -that decision it wi11 be necessary that tl�e sign be re-
�moved after that date.� The reason for the requirement of that re-
moval is -thZt the sign is a roof sign and advertises goods or services
sold off -L-he premises, and therefor�e is and has been in ��o�ation or
City ordinances since �he ccmmencement of the Tia Maria use. The
only i�eason -that the Council allowed the use to centinue to Septernber
30, 1976, was the fact that the Airport Marina firm had apparently
� entered into their lcase in good faith.
We trust tae will have your cooperation in the removal of
the sign after that date.
YRurs truly,
