Design Review
Address: 1473 Cortez Avenue
Meeting Date: 4/9/07
Request: Design review for a new, two-story single family dwelling and detached garage.
Applicant and Property Owner: Jason and Denise Payne APN: 026-041-020
Architect: James Chu Lot Area: 6,000 SF
General Plan: Low Density Residential Zoning: R-1
CEQA Status: Article 19. Categorically Exempt per Section: 15303, Class 3—(a) construction of a limited
number of new, small facilities or structures including (a) one single family residence or a second dwelling unit in
a residential zone. In urbanized areas, up to three single-family residences maybe constructed or converted under
this exemption.
History: This proj ect was reviewed by the Planning Commission as a Design Review Study item on January 22,
2007 and as an action item on March 26, 2007. At their March 26, 2007 review the Commission continued the
item to the consent calendar after the applicant had addressed several items.
Current Project (based on plans date stamped January 12, 2007 and March 28, 2007): The applicant is
proposing to demolish an existing two-story house with attached garage to build a new two-story single family
dwelling and detached two-car garage. The proposed house and detached garage will have a total floor area of
3,416 SF (0.57 FAR) where 3,420 SF (0.57 FAR) is the maximum allowed. The proposed floor area is 4 SF
below the maximum allowed FAR.
The applicant applied for a permit to remove an oak tree in the center of the backyard. The tree removal
application was denied by the City Arborist on November 17, 2006. The applicant has noted, and the landscape
plan indicates that the tree will remain after construction and will be properly protected during construction (see
condition number 16).
The proj ect includes a detached garage (427 SF, 20'-8" x 20'-8") which provides the required one covered parking
space for the proposed four-bedroom house. One uncovered space (9' x 20') is provided in the driveway. All
other zoning code requirements have been met. The applicant is requesting the following:

Staff Comments: See attached. Please note that over the past year, the property owners have applied for two tree
removal permits on the property. The first one was approved on August 16, 2006, for an oak tree on the left side
of the rear yard and it has been removed. The Parks Department has granted an extension to August 16, 2007 for
the required replacement tree. The second tree removal permit for an oak tree was denied on November 17,
2006. The applicants noted at the January 22°d Planning Commission meeting that they are planning to keep that
tree, which is located in the middle of the backyard, and have noted so on the proposed landscape plan.
January 22, 2007 Design Review Study Meeting: At the Planning Commission design review studymeeting on
January 22, 2007, the Commission had comments regarding the removal of one oak tree in the backyard, roof
shingles, landscaping, and suggested adding design elements such as a front porch, french doors at the rear, and
an attic vent. The Commission moved to place the item on the consent calendar at a time when the applicant had
addressed the Commission's comments and there is space on the agenda. The applicant submitted a response
letter to the Planning Commission on March 6, 2007 and there were no changes made to the plans.
March 26, 2007 Action Meeting: At the Planning Commission action hearing on March 26, 2007, the
Commission had comments regarding the rafters, fireplace, jasmine, curved windows, and the protected oak in
the rear yard. The Commission moved to place the item on the consent calendar at a time when the applicant has
�
Design Review

addressed the Commission's comments and there is space on the agenda. The applicant submitted two response
letters to the Planning Commission on March 28, 2007. One addressed the comments made by the Planning
Commission at their January 22, 2007 meeting and the other addressed comments made at their March 26, 2007
action hearing. The applicant also submitted a revised front elevation, right elevation, and landscape plan (sheets
A.4 and L1.0 date-stamped March 28, 2007). The following is a list of comments made by the Commission at the
March 26, 2007, meeting and responses by the applicant:
Consider extending the rafters up on the roof at a pitch in order to avoid flat areas, particulaYly on the
smallest flat area; taY and gravel is a lot of work and water can pond.
The architect noted that the shingle roofing will wrap around the ridge at the flat roof area, as the
Planning Commission previously suggested, and that the flat roof is commonly used to allow more
articulation to minimize mass and bulk (response letters from architect dated March 28, 2007). (Staff
notes the rafters were not extended to form a pitched roof over the flat roof areas.)
2. The proposed chimney along the right side elevation has an insufficient setback to the property line and
needs to move at least 6" towards the house.
The architect noted, per Burlingame Municipal Code Section 25.28.073, 3b(2), that "a new chimney
shall be set back a minimum of two feet from the property line" (response letter from architect dated
March 28, 2007). Planning staff confirmed that in the past the zoning code has been interpreted to
mean a new chimney just two feet from a side property line is permitted.
3. The jasmine vines along the left sideproperty line need to beplanted closer together and there should be
more of them in order to create a landscape barrier between the two properties.
The architect noted that the landscape plan has been shared with the neighbor to the left and they are
satisfied with the current spacing of jasmine vines as shown, no changes were made to the spacing
between plants (response letter from architect dated March 28, 2007).
4. The curved windows proposed on the house shall be retained during constYuction and shall not be replaced
with rectangular windows.
As originally proposed, curved windows are shown on the front and right elevations (front and right
elevations date-stamped March 28, 2007).
S. During construction, the applicant should coordinate with the next door neighbor to share a debris box, oY
at least avoid having two debris boxes on the street.
• No response in writing from architect.
Design Review Criteria: The criteria for design review as established in Ordinance No. 1591 adopted by the
Council on Apri120, 1998 are outlined as follows:
Compatibility of the architectural style with that of the existing character of the neighborhood;
2. Respect for the parking and garage patterns in the neighborhood;
Design Review
Architectural style and mass and bulk of structure;
4. Interface of the proposed structure with the structures on adjacent properties; and
5. Landscaping and its proportion to mass and bulk of structural components.
1473 Cortez Avenue
Findings: Based on the findings stated in the attached minutes of the Planning Commission's January 22, 2007
design review study meeting, that the applicant has done a nice job with the design, and that it is consistent with
the mass and bulk in the neighborhood, and that some of the proposed revisions noted by the Planning
Commission on January 22, 2007 and March 26, 2007 have been incorporated, including wrapping the shingle
roofing, adding an attic vent, and switching the location of the bay laurel with the strawberry trees, the proj ect is
found to be compatible with the requirements of the City's five residential design review guidelines.

Dear Planning Commissioners: Feb. 16, 2007
After much discussion on whether to add a porch to our design we have decided
against it. We really like the look of our home with out the porch. We also have
two young boys a��d the porch railing is just one more thing for them to climb on
and jump off. We plan on spending a lot of time in our backyard with our family
and friends. We feel the porch gives the house a closed in feeling and we like a
more open design.

APPLICANTS AND PROPERTY OWNERS; CHU DESIGN & ENGR., INC., DESIGNER) (63
NOTICED) PROJECT PLANNER: LISA WHITMAN
CP Monroe briefly presented the project description. Commission commented: there was an application to
remove one oak tree that was denied, but another tree was removed from the rear yard; was a permit issued
for that removal? Talked to owner to gain access to the rear yard and saw the location of the removed tree
and the remaining oak. There were no further questions from the Commission.
Chair Brownrigg opened the public comment. James Chu, 55 W. 43�a Avenue, San Mateo, and Jason and
Denise Payne, property owners, stated: decided to keep the oak tree which was denied a removal permit on
the property; agree with staff to hire a licensed arborist for a tree protection plan; obtained a tree removal
permit to remove the oak in order to accommodate the construction of the detached garage. Commission
commented:
■ Did a great job on the design; the right elevation looks nicer when the second floor plate comes
down; the design is handsome;
■ There are a couple of flat spots on the top of the roof; should not use curb in these areas; wrap
shingles to the ridge to trick the eye;
■ House has the potential to add a front porch; could extend roof element off to one side; front porch is
important to extend the house to the neighborhood;
■ At the rear elevation, any thought to French doors instead of the window on the first floor?
■ Compliment profile of corbels on plans; could include an attic vent on the elevation;
■ Clarify the permits issued for the tree removal and for the tree to be retained; and
■ In front driveway side, strawberry tree should be replaced with a larger scale tree like a Bay laurel to
help screen the house, and the Bay laurel shown on the plans at the front could be swapped with the
strawberry tree shown.
The applicant responded: French doors were not added in location of window on first floor so that there
would be more useable living space inside the house in that location; and the tree in the back was approved
for a iree removal permit by Steve Porter because it was a shallow based oak. There were no other
comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed.

slightly; with respect to the porch, if the front patio area gets used at all, you do not want to create a porch
with a railing, generally make an entry porch to bring house forward towards the street; here want to create a
patio sitting area that augments the living room; accept design as is because of the patio off of the living
room at the front of the house; and the architect can take the suggestions regarding the porch under
advisement.
Chair Brownrigg called for a vote on the motion to place this item on the consent calendar when plans had

RE: 1ZEQUEST F�R 1ZEM0�IAL OF OAK TREE @ 1473 CORTEZ AVENUE
- BURLINGAME
I reviewed your request for the removal of one Oak tree in the back yard of the property at the
above address, and have made the following determination:
1) The criteria for removal has not been met.
2) Routine tree maintenance will mitigate applicant's reason for requesting removal of
the Oak tree.
3) Therefore, the application has been denied.
If you wish to appeal this decision you may: 1) Submit an independent Arborist Report supporting
justifiable criteria for removal of these trees and/or any other supporting documentation you may
have supporting your request for removal and, 2) Appeal this decision in writing to the Burlingame
Beautification Commission, 850 Burlingame Avenue, Burlingame. Any documentation must be
received at our office by November 29 2006 if you wish your appeal to be placed on the
�eautification Commission's I)ecember 7�' agenda.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me af (650) 558-7330.
