Since there was no appeal, a minor modification to allow a 3'-0" left side setback where 6'-0" is required at 1609 Albemarle Way, zoned R-1, was approved effective February 27, 2008. The project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Division and date stamped February 9, 2009. Any changes to these plans shall be subject to further minor modification procedures. The minor modification was approved with the following findings: 1. that the location of the proposed first floor remodel is located behind the existing main portion of the house so that it will not alter the character of the neighborhood and will not have a detrimental impact on the character of the adjacent properties; 2. that the original house was built with a 3'-0" left side setback which does not meet current code requirements and that the proposed removal and replacement of the existing wall_with a 3'-0" left _ side setback does not represent a greater impact on the adjacent property than the existing side setback; 3. Q that the proposed addition is compatible with the aesthetics, mass and character of the property and of adjacent properties and the neighborhood; and that the construction will meet the requirements of the Califomia Building and Fire Codes, 2007 Edition as amended by the City of Burlingame, and therefore will not be detrimental to public health, safety, or welfare. All site improvements and construction work will require separate application to the Building Department. This approval is valid for one year during which time a building permit must be issued. One extension of up to one year may be considered by the Planning Commission if application is made before the end of the first year.

Be advised where more than one (1) addition and/or alteration for which building permits are required are made within a two (2) year period and said alterations are made to the premises of the same occupant. In such circumstances, the sum of these additions and/or alterations construction costs during this two (2) year period shall be aggregated for the purpose of calculating the replacement cost value formula. Final determination will be made and the plan review phase of the project. It is very important that you understand the threshold indicated by BMC § 17.04.030. Designer, contractor, and owner should communicate specifically the extent of demolition and remodel. Keeping in mind any change orders and addendums which increase the total amount of square footage added or remodeled after plan review would be applied to the sprinkler ordinance. j_!t�!y ..... ? :'J Reviewed by: �� G�� Date: i�� Project Comments Date: To: From: Subject: Staff Review: September 8, 2008 City Engineer (fi50) 558-7230 Chief Building Official (650) 558-7260 City Arborist (650) 558-7254 Planning Staff Recycling Specialist (650) 558-7271 Fire Marshal (650) 558-7600 ✓ NPDES Coordinator (650j 342-3727 City Attorney Request for Design Review for a first and second story addition at 1609 Albemarle Way, zoned R-1, APN: 025-205-150 September 8, 2008� Any construcl:ion project in the City, regardless of size, shall comply with the City NPDES permit requirement to prevent stormwater pollution from construction activities.

Your property is located within 100 feet of this property. The minor modification has been requested to allow for the reduced side setback based on Municipal Code Section 25.55. Any noticed property owner may call this item up for review. If you would like to request that this project be reviewed, which includes a public hearing, you should submit a written request to the Community Development Director within seven days of the postmark on this letter.
