Design Review, Special Permit, and
Hillside Area Construction Permit
Address: 2752 Summit Drive
Item No. 8b
Regular Action Item
Meeting Date: October 25, 2021
Request: Application for Design Review, Hillside Area Construction Permit, and Special Permit for attached
garage for a new, two-story single family dwelling and attached garage.
Applicant and Property Owner: Michael Kuperman
Designer: Stepan Berlov
General Plan: Low Density Residential
APN: 027-221-210
Lot Area: 12,505 SF
Zoning: R-1
Environmental Review Status: The project is Categorically Exempt from review pursuant to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Section 15303 (a), which states that construction of a limited number of
new, small facilities or structures including one single family residence or a second dwelling unit in a residential
zone is exempt from environmental review. In urbanized areas, up to three single-family residences maybe
constructed or converted under this exemption.
History: An application for Design Review, Hillside Area Construction Permit, and Special Permits for attached
garage and declining height envelope for a new, two-story single family dwelling and attached garage at 2752
Summit Drive was denied without prejudice by the Planning Commission on July 12, 2021. Please refer to the
attached Study and Regular Action meeting minutes for more detailed information and reasons the project was
denied without prejudice (July 12, 2021 and March 22, 2021 Planning Commission Minutes attached).
The applicant has resubmitted the proposed project to address the concerns and suggestions previously
expressed by the Commission. Because substantial changes were made to both the design and siting of the
buildings, the application was brought to the Commission as a Design Review study item on September 27,
2021.
Project Description: The subject property is an interior lot. The applicant is proposing to demolish an existing
one-story single family dwelling with an attached garage and build a new, two-story single family dwelling and
attached garage. The proposed house and garage would have a total floor area of 4,796 SF (0.38 FAR) where
5,102 SF (0.41 FAR) is the maximum allowed.
The subject property is located in the Hillside Area and Code Section 25.61.020 of the Burlingame Municipal
Code states that no new structure or any addition to all or a portion of an existing structure shall be constructed
within the affected area without a Hillside Area Construction Permit. In addition, it states that review by the
Planning Commission shall be based upon the obstruction by the construction of the existing distant views of
nearby properties. Emphasis shall be given to the obstruction of distant views from habitable areas within a
dwelling unit.
The new single family dwelling would contain four bedrooms. Two parking spaces, one of which must be
covered, are required on-site. Two covered parking spaces would be provided in the attached garage (21'-11" x
22'-11" clear interior dimensions); one uncovered parking space (9' x 20') would be provided in the driveway.
Therefore, the project is in compliance with off-street parking requirements. All other Zoning Code requirements
have been met.
The applicant is requesting the following applications:
■ Design Review for a new, two-story single family dwelling and attached garage (C.S. 25.57.010 (a)(1)
and C.S. 25.57.010 (a)(6));
Hillside Area Construction Permit for a new, two-story single family dwelling (C.S. 25.61.020); and
■ Special Permit for an attached garage (C.S. 25.26.035 (a)).

Design Review, Hillside Area Construction Permit, and Special Permit 2752 Summit Drive
Design Review Study Meeting: At the Planning Commission Design Review Study meeting on September 27,
2021, the Commission liked the revisions made to the project and voted to place this item on the Regular Action
Calendar when ali information has been submitted and reviewed by the Planning Division (see attached
September 27, 2021 Planning Commission Minutes).
Summary of the Commission's comments:
• Revisions are nicely done, project nestles in to site very similar to existing structure.
• Vastly improved, in favor of project in terms of Design Review and can make findings for attached
garage.
• Appreciate size reduction and materials and effort gone in to come to a solution.
• Story poles required for Hillside Area Construction Permit.
As noted above, the Commission directed that story poles be installed in order to review potential view blockage.
Story poles were installed as directed (see attached story pole certification and story pole plan).
Design Review Criteria: The criteria for design review as established in Ordinance No. 1591 adopted by the
Council on April 20, 1998 are outlined as follows:
1. 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;
3. 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.
Suggested Findings for Design Review: That the architectural style, mass and bulk of the new house
(featuring a variety of materials metal panels, stucco and wood siding, aluminum clad wood doors, and aluminum
clad wood windows with true divided lites) is compatible with the character of the neighborhood and that the
windows and architectural elements of the proposed structure are placed so that the structure respects the
interface with the structures on adjacent properties; that the proposed materials provides visual interest on all
elevations and the architectural elements of the modern style structure compliments the neighborhood; and that
the proposed project includes an attached garage, which is consistent with the garage patterns within the
neighborhood. For these reasons, the project may be found to be compatible with the requirements of the City's
five design review criteria.
Required Findings for Hillside Area Construction Permit: Review of a Hillside Area Construction Permit by
the Planning Commission shall be based upon obstruction by construction of the existing distant views of nearby
properties. Emphasis shall be given to the obstruction of distant views from habitable areas within a dwelling
unit (Code Sec. 25.61.060).
Suggesfed Findings for Hillside Area Construction Permit: That the site is located on a sloping lot, which
slopes downward from front to rear by more than forty feet, with the new house nestled in with a similar footprint
and envelope as the existing house and with mature trees along the rear property line and proposed
landscaping along both side property lines screening the subject property; that the front elevation interface with
the street still appears as a single-story house and therefore the surrounding properties will not be impacted by
the proposed new construction; and that the two-story portion of house is located along the lowest portion of the
site therefore would minimize any impacts on long distant views. For these reasons, the project does not
obstruct distant views from habitable areas with nearby dwelling units and therefore the project may be found to
be compatible with hillside area construction permit criteria.
3
Design Review, Hillside Area Construction Permit, and Special Permit 2752 Summit Drive
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 25.51.020 a-d):
(a) The blend of mass, scale and dominant structural characteristics of the new construction or addition are
consistent with the existing structure's design and with the existing street and neighborhood;
(b) The variety of roof line, facade, exterior finish materials and elevations of the proposed new structure or
addition are consistent with the existing structure, street and neighborhood;
(c) The proposed project is consistent with the residential design guidelines adopted by the city; and
(d) Removal of any trees located within the footprint of any new structure or addition is necessary and is
consistent with the city's reforestation requirements, and the mitigation for the removal that is proposed is
appropriate.
Suggested Findings forDesign Review and Special Permit (attached garage): That the proposed attached
garage is consistent with the garage pattern in the neighborhood which consists of attached garages and that
the proposed design of the garage is integrated well into the proposed structure and is not visible from the street
(garage door faces side property line). For these reasons, the project may be found to be compatible with the
design review and special permit criteria listed above.
Planning Commission Action: The Planning Commission should conduct a public hearing on the application,
and consider public testimony and the analysis contained within the staff report. Action should include specific
findings supporting the Planning Commission's decision, and should be affirmed by resolution of the Planning
Commission. The reasons for any action should be stated clearly for the record. At the public hearing the
following conditions should be considered:

All Commissioners have visited the project site. Associate Planner Kolokohakaufisi provided an overview
of the staff report.
Chair Schmid opened the public hearing.
Michael Kuperman, property owner and Stepan Berlov, designer, represented the applicant and answered
questions about the application.
Public Comments:
> Dr. Dennis Ngai. 1'm a neighbor. I love walking on Summit Drive and climbing up the hill to see the
wonderful view of the beautiful houses. How tall is the house? Is it going to block the view when we're
wa/king up the hill? I just want to make sure we can still enjoy the view when walking up the hill. A/so, I
want to know how long the construction wil/ be because my days off are during weekdays. I want to know
how much time I'm going to lose listening to the hammering and the bulldozing. My parents had the same
prob/em in Mil/brae and it was two years of listening to hammering; I couldn't relax and it was horrible for
me. / hope the house doesn't block the wonderfu/ valley view we have. (Chair Schmid. I'm not sure that
we can respond to that at this point. But if you want to contact the P/anning Division, they can give you a
bit more information about hours and the construction rules that are applicable.)
Chair Schmid closed the pub/ic hearing.
Commission Discussion/Direction:
> The revisions are nicely done. The project nest/es into the site very similar/y to the existing structure .
This is vasily improved over what we saw previously. I'm in favor of the project rn terms of design review
considerations.
> I can make the findings ultimately for the attached garage because there is precedence in the
neighborhood. It would be almost impossib/e to have a detached garage down a sloping driveway and rear
yard.
> The only issue is the Hillside Area Construction Pe�mit. I would like to have the story poles erected to
understand how much of the house pokes up above the existing, whether it is be/ow or at the height of the
existing structure, so the neighbor can see the view issues.
> It's important we do our due diligence and require that story po/es be instal/ed, although we've been
told that iYs the same height or lower but higher in a coup/e of spots. lt would be nice fo� everyone to see
City of Burlingame Page 1
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes September 27, 2021
where that is and how that actually works.
> In looking at this new design, I can appreciate the size reduction, the materials and the effort that has
gone into this conversation to come to this solution, and can appreciate all the effort that was put into it. It
looks like it will largely fit into the same box, but it's a good due diligence for the neighborhood to be ab/e
to know that as well, so that the public sees it, not just those of us who can read the print. So / think
that's a good idea to install story poles. l'd like to see the project move forward and I agree with the
findings on the special perrnrt for the attached garage.
Commissioner Terrones made a motion, seconded by Chair Schimd, to place the item on the
Regular Action Calendar when plans have been revised as directed. The motion carried by the

Please forward my email to the planning commission with regard to the pending project at 2752
Summit Drive. Mr. Kuperman has reviewed his new plans which shows a height reduction in the
revised project plans. My only concern is the possible effects of the foundation work with
drilling on the project which may adversely affect the foundation of my property next door at
2748 Summit Dc. I have brought this concern to Mr. Kuperman and he has addressed this with
the Enaineerin� Finn and has offered to conduct an analysis of my property prior to the
excavation of Ilis house and tlle foundation work to be done.
I appreciate Mr. Kuperman's efforts to inform me of the current proposed plans and to addcess
any concerns I have regarding the project.
Thank you,
Loretta Chuck

All Commissioners have visited the project site. Commissioner Gau/ noted that he was able to visrt the
house of the uphill neighbor at 2756 Summit Drive. Commrssioner Terrones noted that he visited with the
same neighbor to review the story poles from her property. Associate Planner Markiewicz provided an
overview of the staff report.
Acting Chair Larios opened the public hearing.
Michael Kuperman and Stepan Berlov, represented the applicant and answered questions about the
application.
Public Comments:
> Loretta Chuck, 2748 Summit Drive: 1 sent an email regarding this project. 1'm the homeowner and
resident at the house just down the hill and next door to this property. My main concern is that the views
from my window are blocked very significantly because of the height of the building. That's how it impacts
me. 1 think it's out of proportion in this neighborhood. 1 have a two-story ranch home with a steep driveway.
This proposed house is just a humongous structure. I thank you for the opportunity to express my
concerns and 1 am strongly opposed to this structure as it is proposed. 1 hope that it can be redesigned to
lower the height. If they built it the way it is, it would be three stones of full height ceilings and that just
doesn't work for me. I included three photos from my bedroom window and it shows the structure next
door. 1'm wondering whether any of the Commissroners received the email with the attachments, I want to
make sure they have been received and reviewed. The Commissioners who visited my neighbor at 2756
Summit Drive were going to come down to my property, but unfortunately no one ever came. 1 was
wondering if someone came on to my property, walked down my long driveway and looked from my side
yard to view the property?
Acting Chair Larios closed the public hearing.
Commission Discussion/Direction:
> The design has come a long way from where it started. The Burlingame hills is a good location for a
City of Burlingame pa9e �
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 12, 2021
modern home because it typically incorporates a flat roof, which is going to help address the view issues
that have been brought up and that may come up in the future. I viewed the story poles from the bottom
of Ms. Chuck's driveway and from the side of the house. 1 do agree that the house is pretty overbearing on
that side, especia/ly because it is so much further up fhe hill and thaYs where I'm having a prob/em with
the deciining height envelope exception. On the othe� neighbor's side, there is a distant view blockage
from the exterior deck. Views are usually considered from the living space, but this deck fo me would
count as living space because iYs inc/uded in the floor area ratio and lot coverage. Having trouble with the
mass, the view blockage and the declining height envelope. Suggests that the applicant bring the height
of the building down 6y simply lowering the plate heights on a/l three floors. Understand the issue with the
location of the power pole, but there's a possibility of doing a detached ADU that would not be part of the
structure, so you might be able to propose a structure a litt/e bit further down the hill.
> Having difficulties with the findings for mass and bulk of the structure and interface of the proposed
structures with structures on adjacent properties. 1 visited the adjacent house and looked at the uphill
house and the views from an exterior viewing deck. It's the prime location where you have any views that
look out to the bay which are the types of views that we typically consider when we've /ooked at projects in
the hillside area. Many of the houses up in the hil/side area have viewing decks on the backside of their
house and that's prime living space. Having a hard time with the mass of the structure in terms of how
drastically different it is from nearby structures. Suggest revisiting the p/ate heights and bringing the
overal/ height of the house down substantially. In regards to Ms. Chuck's property on the lower side, any
house thaYs another level above what it is now is going to have impact on that downhill property. Views of
the sky, access to or preventing any sort of shading is typrcally a consideration we can't make. Peop/e
have a right to add on to their house if they're not exceeding the height limitafions, so we have to make
some considerations. But the height of this structure could be reduced substantially by some methods
and not have as much of an impact on the adjacent neighdors.
> Going back to the comment about the ADU potentially being detached. There may be difficulty in
crossing the publrc utility easement and adding an ADU at the back of the property. Not sure if that was
explored or if that is feasibfe. The structure is tall, especiafly on the backside where it looks like it could
6e a multi-unit apartment building in the sense that it's very rectilinear, narrow in form and shoots straight
up. ThaYs where 1'm having trouble with the declining height envelope. IYs an open plan with generously
sized spaces. On the main floor, it seems that there wou/d be an opportunity to meet the declining height
envelope and avoid requesting a declining height envelope variance. Each of the floors are very tall.
Although 1 appreciate the ent�ance from the street level to go into the main floor, you would also have to
acknowledge and recognize that this is a sloping lot and iYs desirable, but this may be affecting other
neighbors in the area. You could benefit from reducing the height of the structure overa/l and sinking it
down a little bit lower. Many homes in that neighborhood are nestled into the downward slope of the
hillside and this one is perched on top. In term of massing, it doesn't reflect the neighborhood.
> The house is just too big for that site and does not fit the neighborhood in terms of mass and bulk.
Architecturally, if we're going to do a modern house, this is the best place for it.
> Can't make the findings for the massing. it is inconsistent with the surrounding structures.
> In terms of the mass iYs like an apartment building, but the architecture has come a long way. IYs
much more residential and the use of materials are much more in line with articulating the massing, and
giving the house a more residential feel. With a/l of that said, the real rssue is the massing.
Commissioner Terrones made a motion, seconded by Acting Chair Larios, to deny the
application without prejudice. The motion carried by the following vote:
Aye: 5- Comaroto, Terrones, Tse, Gaul, and Larios

d. 2752 Summit Drive, zoned R-1 - Application for Design Review, Hillside Area
Construction Permit, Special Permits for an attached garage and declining height
envelope for a new, two-story single family dwelling and attached garage. (Michael
Kuperman, applicant and property owner; Stepan Berlov, designer) (75 noticed) Staff

All Commissioners have visited the project site. Commissioner Schmid noted that he had a conversation
with the owner discussing the view and the hillside area construction permit.
Plannrng Manager Hurin provided an oveiview of the staff report.
Questions of staff:
> Can you clanfy how the declining height envelope applies on the sides as you go down the slope?
(Hurin: On these downward sloping lots, we have to figure out the point of departure where the declining
height enveloper starts at grade. That's determined by the average of the front and rear property corners.
So what happens on these downward sloping lots is that the declining height envelope gets pushed down
because the average slope for the point of departure is going to be a lot lower than the finished floor of the
house. You'll see that often on these downward sloping lots. On upward sloping lots, the reverse occurs
and iYs way up high. Usually those houses have no prob/em complying with a declining height envelope.)
It's hard to say how many exceptions or how often this happens because we haven't seen this happen
much. It seems like the declining height envelope probably doesn't apply well in this situation. (Hurin: For
these types situations, you can make the hardship findings and set aside the design of the project. In
terms of the mass and bulk, on the sloping /ots, you can certarnly make findings that there's a hardship
on the property given the extreme slope on the lot.)
Chair Tse opened the public hearing.
Stepan Berlov, represented the applicant with property owner Michael Kuperman.
Commission Questions/Comments:
> 1 get it that you're on a sloping lot, but on your site plan it appears that a large majority of your front
yard is paved. I can see that you have your trench drains, but in a heavy downpour and a few leaves, those
can get clogged up. You may have drainage pro6lems. But more than that, it has to do with the overall
appearance from the street. Have you thought about adding some more landscaping in the front? (Berlov:
The project consists of a new house on an existing lot. This lot is a little bit challenging. There is an
existing driveway that leads down to the ground floor. Our intention is to disturb the existing areas as little
as possible. We are trying to bring up the main entrance up to the street level, so it would be easily
accessib/e for people to see and to communicate. Currently, you have to walk down the steep stairs,
City of Burlingame Page 1
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 22, 2021
which at night is quite dangerous and with kids they're concerned that something may happen. It's also not
very useable for walking traffic. We do plan to add more /andscaping in the front right where the main
entrance is. There will be a large tree and some grass planted. You can see it on the bottom side. We will
add landscaping along the side of the house where it is s/oping down on both sides. There will be a large
amounf of planters and landscaped trees in the areas between the driveway and the stairs leading down to
the lower level as well.) It looks like there is going to be a lot of paving in the front, but I'll let the other
Commissioners make their comments.
> The elevation drawings are a Irttle difficult to read because everything is shaded and in color. Looking
at the rendenngs on the cover sheet and trying to translate that to the exterior elevations, it looks like
some stone material is applied around the entry but in vertica/ strips. Both on the upper entry off the main
courtyard and the lower entry off the garage courtyard, there are stones flanking at both entries. On the
renderings, the stone is on the whole facade on that lower portion. Is it correct that what we're seeing along
grid line E is the stone facade just on the front? Does it not turn on the elevation where those French
doors are up on that second floor? (Berlov. On the second floor, the stone turns around the corner and it
dies at the corner where the patio is, it goes along the side of that /ine where the French doors are. There
is stone down below it at the lower leve/ which also turns the corner and goes down a/ong the side of the
steps.) Going back up to the second f/oor where you described the French doors, does the stone continue
from grid line E as what we are seeing on grid line D? Or is it just on fhe front facade7 (Berlov: It's just on
the front facade.) Is it a veneer of stone? (Berlov: ThaYs correct, but we do have a stone veneer that goes
where the garage entrance is and up to the main floor.)
> There isn't much stone to the left of the bay e/ement that is on that second f/oor between grid lines K
and G, but on the rendering that bay is pushed towards the back a little bit with more stone to the left of
it. (Berlov: I'm sorry. The rendenng on the cover page has a little bit more stone. It wasn't updated, but we
are just going to have a similar element like the /ower entry door for more consistency with the project.)
> Did you review the proposed plans with your uphill neighbors7 I can see there are distant views of the
bay from that neighborhood, but 1 couldn't te/l if your proposed structure cou/d possibly block any views
from any neighbors. (Kuperman: I didn't have a chance, I don't see him too often. But 1 can tell you that
there are trees that block the windows on his property and his windows are facing northeast where my
house is just north. So he doesn't look towards my house. His house is pivoted towards a different
direction.)
Pubiic Comments:
> There were no public comments.
Chair Tse closed the public hearing.
Commission Discussion/Direction:
> I'm struggling with this a little bit. It feel non-residential in different p/aces. The rear elevation feels
very much /ike a motel and at least one side elevation feels like a school bui/ding. There is site lighting
everywhere and there is building lighting on all facades. That probably is one of the reasons it fee/s
vaguely non-residential. IYs lacking in charm. Part of that may be the way it's rendered. It's a little hard to
tell whether it might feel difierent if it were rendered differently. 1 like modern architecture, but this is
verging on charm-less architecture. It feels /ike it needs to go to a design review consultant. 1'l/ hear what
other Commissioners have to say about it.
> The renderings on the front show a potentially nice design there; a larger rendering wou/d be he/pful.
There's a lot of surface area that you're trying to cover. The elevations/sections are helpful from seeing
how it goes down the hill, but graphically very difficult to see where materials are coming and going to see
the charm on it. I would highly recommend that the elevations attempt to really describe the materials
instead of the heights. I'm highly distracted by all the white boxes with heights and all the /ines for
sections and such. It makes it hard to see whaf is going on underneath. There's a graphicness to this that
could help quite a bit in being able to show us better what is here. To me, it doesn't look unapprovable. 1
like the modern feel of it, but iYs difficult to see the character without really clearing up the elevations a bit
City oiBurlingame Page 2
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 22, 2021
more.
> I agree with my fellow Commissioner. I would also agree that the modernist architecture isn't the
issue, but to me, it doesn't look residential. Even with the nicer renderings that are on the cover sheet, it
looks like the entrance to a doctor's office. In ferms of how the materials are applied, the materials aren't
being used to define the parts and pieces of the modernist boxes. They're used as veneers to dress
things up and give an appearance of something better than a stucco box at entries and other areas. The
way the stone is app/ied in the renderings, the stone starts to define extents of planes and portions of the
boxes that are being broken down. Then when we get to the actual elevations that we're being asked to
approve, the stone is applied as pillars on either side of entries and faces on wainscot, on other portions
of the wall around the garage door, and not really defining the elements of the architecture. This is a good
candidate for design review consulting.
> We do often consider Special Permits for declining heighf envelope as approvable in context like
these when it's a downward sloping lot. However, when you look at the left side elevation, iYs not making
any effort really to address the declining height enve/ope. It's a flat box that has some steps down in the
back a/ittle bit, but nothing to the side. IYs a flat box with some horizontal trims on it which isn't defining
the modernist architecture. IYs just breaking down the floor lines. So, in visiting the site, other properties
in the area kind of nestle into their site a little bit more and drop below the street leve/ and are
unobtrusive. This one with a flat roof jumps up both front to back and side to srde and presents a/arge
mass. It should go to the design review consultant and before this comes back, story po/es should be
erected so we and the neighbors can get a better look at what the final massing is going to look like.
> I agree with my fellow Commissioners about erecting story poles and that this should go to a design
review consultant.
> The first thoughf 1 had about this project was the hillside area construction permit and whether we can
make the findings for that. It definitely needs story poles. I'm a little surprised that we haven't heard
anything from neighbors yet because normal/y in hillside areas like this, if there's a hint of obstructed
view, neighbors are very clear about their concerns and we haven't heard that in this case. But it's
conceivable to me that with the program thaYs being proposed; we won't be abfe to make the findings for
a hillside area construction permit. Once the story poles go up, the who/e program might need to be
revised or reconsidered even if it does go to the design review consultant.
> 1 agree with my fellow Commissioners. We've seen in past situations with projects in the hillside area
construction permit zone, where seemingly there isn't concern for distant views or nearby views, but once
those story po/es go up, it becomes apparent to neighbors in the area where they can see where their view
may be 6locked. So 1 agree we should request story poles be erected for this project. 1 too feel we should
visit a design review consultant on this project.
> Should we put story poles up first? Can you do that before they go to a desrgn review consu/tant? Or
do you have to base it on what is going to be the project, so can you not do that? What comes first7
> I was going to make the exact same point that my fel/ow Commissioner was making, except I was
going to suggest that you be very sure that this is what you wanted to build before you spend the time and
money putting up story po/es. 1 wou/d say get your design in place before you put up story poles.
> If we're going to send this to a design review consultant, I wouldn't fee/ comfortable asking them to go
to the expense of putting up the story po/es until they have a design that they're prepared to bring back
before us. The story poles should reflect whatever that design would be.
> Hurin: It's somewhat difficult to decide which comes firsf. But as the Commissioners have pointed out,
it may make more sense to go through the design review consulting process first. Once the mass and
bulk and details are established, then you can put up the story poles. They can also insta/l temporary
story po/es that aren't necessanly certified, to give the neighbors an idea of how tall the proposed structure
is compared to what is there now.
> I just wanted to follow up on the landscape question. There is a lot of opportunity for this, whether iYs
brought back to us, for more /andscaping while meeting the needs of the applicant in terms of access.
You can have a very generous enfrance and wa/kway and still have an opportunity for a lot more green
than shown now.
> There's a lot of information on here that we don't need at this point in our process to evaluate the
design. Everyone will be better served if the focus were on representing the character of the building
instead of the technical side of the building, the size of the windows, the window and the door types and al!

that stuff. It wil/ be easier to make a decisron /ooking at that kind of information than whaYs going on
here.
> This is a great candidate for more three-dimensional study. There's a/ot going on here. If we had
better axons looking down the hill, it would make our job easier. It's not making this ditficult for the
applicant and not allow them to have a design that they appreciate, but it is about making it easier for us
to give said guidance to be able to move the project fonvard. The more they can make that for us
graphically, the easier this will move forward.
Commissioner Sargent made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Loftis, to refer the
application to a design review consultant and directed that story poles be installed prior to
returning to the Planning Commission. The motion carried by the following vote:
Aye: 7- Sargent, Comaroto, Terrones, Tse, Gaul, Loftis, and Schmid
