Applicant and Designer: Florian Speier, Zeitgeist Design Property Owners: Jolanda and Gary Breazeale General Plan: Low Density Residential APN: 028-316-090 Lot Area: 8,220 SF Zoning: R-1 Environmental Review: The existing single story house on the property was built in 1921. Based upon documents that were submitted to the Planning Division by a Burlingame Citizen on September 25, 2009, it was indicated that the entire subdivision within which this property is located (Burlingame Park No. 2) may have historical characteristics that would indicate that properties within this area could be potentially eligible for listing on the National or California Register of Historical Places. An Historic Resource Evaluation was conducted by Page & Turnbull, Inc. that concluded that the building contains sufficient historic integriry to be considered a contributing resource to a potential historic district, but it is not eligible for individual listing on the California Register of Historical Resources underfour criterions. Those four criterion include: Events for local significance as a resource; Persons as a resource associated with the lives of persons important to local history; Architecture that "embodies the distinctive characteristics of a time and period"; and Information Potential. Because there was a potential impact on historic resources, a Negative Declaration was prepared forthe project. Based on the analysis by Page and Turnbull, it was determined that there would be no adverse environmental impacts, and a Negative Declaration has been prepared. Background: On July 13, 2009, the Planning Commission reviewed an application for Design Reviewfora new, two-story single family dwelling and detached garage at their Design Review Study Meeting. The Commission had many comments and concerns about the proposal and voted to send the project to a design review consultant. They also proposed the option to completely redesign the project and to return to the Planning Commission as a Design Review Study item rather than going to the design review consultant. The applicant chose to completely redesign the project and resubmitted an application for the revised project to the Planning Division on November 24, 2009. Project Description: The applicant is proposing to demolish an existing single-story house and detached garage to build a new, two-story single family dwelling with a basement area and a detached garage. The proposed house and detached garage will have a total floor area of 3,944 SF (0.48 FAR) where 4,130 SF (0.50 FAR) is the maximum allowed (project is 186 SF below the maximum allowed FAR). The entire basement area (631 SF) is exempt from the FAR calculation, because it meets the City's definition of a basement. The project includes a detached garage (468 SF) which provides one code-compliant covered parking space for the proposed four-bedroom house. There is one uncovered parking space (9' x 20') provided in the driveway. 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 detached garage (CS 25.57.010); and ■ Special Permit for a basement with a ceiling height greater than 6'-6" (8'-0" proposed) (CS 25.28.035, fl.

Design Review Study Meeting: At the Planning Commission Environmental Scoping and Design Review Study meeting on March 8, 2010, the Commission discussed the amount of details in the drawings, the location of the proposed garage, the amount of windows at the rear elevation and the proposed entryway and voted to place the item on the Regular Action Calendar when the plans had been revised as directed (March 8, 2010 Planning Commission Minutes). The designer submitted revised plans on April 22, 2010, and a response letter on May 5, 2010, to address the Commission's concerns. The revised plans include: more detail to the building elevation drawings, the garage was pushed along the right side property line in the rear 30% of the lot, 14.25 SF was added to the entrance area on the first floor for better circulation, stucco columns were added at the front porch entry way, and operable windows were added on the second floor rear elevation. Please see the March 8, 2010 Planning Commission minutes and the applicants response letter (dated May 5, 2010) for other comments that were addressed. 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; -2- Negative Declaration, Design Review and Special Permit 117 Costa Rica Avenue 4.

We have done our best to address all of your concernsfrom the March 8, 2010 public hearing and hope that the revised plans meets your expectations for a new residence on Costa Rica Avenue. This response letter is following the list of concerns as recorded in the minutes. In addition we analyzed the audio recording to make surewe addressed all concerns in full detail. Concerns recorded in meeting minutes: 1.) "Feels the drawings are a bit confusing in terms of their execution, but likes the design." We have revised every sheet to make sure the clarity of the drawings and the line work is enhanced. 2.) "Wil! there be some form of wood surround around the arches? (Speier- no, there will be no wood surround,� will just be stucco arches.)" V1le have revised the entry situation to incorporate columns and engaged columns, added groin vaults in the archeswith a lantern hanging from each center point, and added a stucco surround for the arches themselves. We believe this makes the entry stand out more asthe most highly detailed design element in the street facade and invites visitors to the house. 3.) "On the driveway side elevation on the water color, looks like window box is made of wood; is this true? (Speier- will be wood.)„ We revised the texture here to make it more easily readable. The laundry room window box is surrounded by timber members. On listening to the tape again, we were unsure whether this question may have been geared towards the planter boxes. The planter boxes were revised aswell, and are now wrought iron with a copper insert. 4.) "Need to clarify design details to better understand the design." See item 1. We have done our best to make the plans clearer. 5.) `Simplify the representation of the attachment of the downspout " Amount of attachment points is now minimized. Additional spouts and gutters added around patio, driveway and west facade to improve rainwater harvesting options. 6.) "It appears fha t a"nana" wall will be installed in the dining room, but it is not consistently shown on � Z�i1J �_.� the plans" This folding window wall has been deleted in favor of regular windows for the dining room. 7.) `Elecfrical panels near the entry are not shown on the elevations; not a good spot for them, too visible. " Vb�e moved the electrical panels to the now enlarged garbage enclosure, where the panels can be attached to the west wall of the house but will not be seen while still being accessible from the driveway (a clients request) 8.) "Seems like stairs are missing on the second level " Software glitch that caused this has been resolved. 9.) "On sheet A-202, not seeing the floor fo ceiling windows, window materials are not called out " To prevent any clarity issueswith the shaded facade representation, we now include two drawings of each facade: a shaded elevation for reference, that, similar to a rendering, better shows the visual appearance of the facade but may be less clear on some details, and atechnical drawing showing all built elements and notes. 10.) "On north elevation; explain how the roofline transitions are designed " All roofs are modeled in 3D to ensure spatial logic. The slopes are calculated to make sure these rooflines match and the roof plan was improved in clarity. 11.) "On east elevation of garage; is there support under fhe overhang? (Speier— no support planned at this time.)" The client specifically requested this corner to be columnless. The drawings now show the additional beams needed to support this corner. 12.) "On westelevation, concerned that the orientation ofthe house will provide alot ofheatgain; the window design doesnot provide the opportunity for adequate ventilation." We eliminated the lower row of windows, made the overhang larger, added two operable elements in the west facade of both the master bedroom and the bathroom, and added electrically venting skylights to draw out hot air. 13.) "The proportions don't seem proper within the interior. "'Feels like the functionality of the dining room is compromised. ""The proportions in the guest bathroom do not seem correct ""Cramped space outside of bathroom; a lot of these spaces are adding to the mass of the house; betfer use of the space would reduce the mass of the house. (Speier— design meets the need of the clients.)" The lower level bathroom was completely redesigned after we got comments back from the engineer that certain wall locations were more flexible than expected. This allowed us to improve the flow around the dining and entrance rooms aswell. The change of windows in the dining room will increase the flexibility in seating for this space. 14.) "The garage; wh y is it not buil t to property line; why doesn'f it follow the driveway line? (Speier— wouldn't have been as effective as a windbreak.)" The garagewas moved back lessthan two feet in orderto be in the rear third of the lot, thereby complying with zoning regulations to be built closeto the property line. This change also allowed a straight driveway and a larger garbage enclosure that can house the electrical panels. 15.) "Seems odd tha t the Fiench doors are facing the front entry. (Speier— will provide the opportunity to see visitors to the house.)" The French doors were deleted in favor of two 2�Q foot windows centered on the arches. These are the same windows used in the rear half of the north elevation. This change also allows more flexibility in furniture arrangements for this room. 16.) "The window placement along the kitchen, north elevation (5 windows); the placement will make if difficult to provide uppercabinets" We have extensively discussed this point with the clients to make sure this is what they desire. 17.) "On lowerelevation below the glassblocks; would be nice to have clerestory windows to break up the wall and add more ventilation." Windows added, see south elevations. 98.) "Want to be certain tha t the client understands the plans so tha t no changes are requested later. (Breazeale — indica ted tha t her family's idiasyncrasies ha ve dicta ted the design.)" We provided the clients with additional time and went through each sheet in order to make sure they are fully informed of every detail. 19.) "Questioned the open grass area. (Breazeale— wanted to retain a grass area for children. Will also provide an area fora vegetable garden behind the garage.) With the changes to the garage, th is area was made slightly smaller. 20.) "Likes the design of the house; parficularly the way the rear of the house opens up to the yard." "Wll need at least triple pane windows on the west elevation of the bedroom to shield from the sun." see item 12 21.) "Clearly identify the ma terials used on the plans" "Show materials sizes on the plans" VUe added annotations and general notes to make sure every material is clearly specified. Timber s¢e annotations added. 22.) "The enfry is pretty hard to find." see item 2. 23.) "!s it nec�csary to have the 'jog" in the placement of the garage? (Strohmeier— noted tha t the 4' side yard setback is required to avoid a side setback variance due to the location of the garage.)" see item 14. 24.) "Feels the design is a bit too massive." It is the clients wish to retain as low a lot coverage while building the house desired for the family. As sustainable designerswe would also like to note that energy consumption per square foot increases asthe building becomes more spread out and the mass gets broken up more. We have added more architectural detail however, such asthe revised entry and the finely crafted planter boxes, to make the building even more inviting. 25.) "If the entry could be pulled out and amplified, could make the entry more visible and the design would `pop': Could spread out the design a bit. (Breazeale— were trying to minimize the amount of lot covered.)" Pulling out the entry would not have worked with the overhanging second floor in an architecturally pleasing way. We have implemented the measures described in item no 2 to enhance visibilty of the entry. 26.) "On the rearelevation, perhaps extend the overhang." Overhang extended as per recommendation. 27.) "Noted that the basemenf drainage must be connected to the City storm drain; encouraged exploring this more to be aware of the cost" Thank you for noting this issue. The soil report came back as rather favorable and we are working on this issue. The"additional comments" in the meeting minuteswere all addressed above in detail. Thank you again for considering our project. I will be presenting the project again at the May 10, 2010 meeting and look forward to your questions and concerns.

Associate Planner Strohmeier briefly presented the project description. There were no questions of staff. Chair Terrones opened the public comment period. Florian Speier, 166 Capricorn Avenue, Oakland and Jolanda Breazeale, 117 Costa Rica Avenue; represented the applicant. ■ Took the design concerns quite seriously after the prior meeting with the Commission; understood that the Commission didn't feel the design was appropriate. ■ Changed the design of the house to be "Spanish Revival", a style that is present within the neighborhood. ■ Provided photographs showing similar designs within one block of the site. ■ The architectural style works well with the floor plan. ■ One concern raised was the non-visibility of the entry; the entry has been revised to improve visibility. ■ The height of the first floor has been reduced to bring the windows down. ■ The guest suite now has a balcony to the street with French doors facing the street, as does one of the first floor rooms. ■ Building will be of stucco; the garage will have a stone fa�ade. ■ Believe that the new design will contribute to the neighborhood. Commission comments: ■ Feels the drawings are a bit confusing in terms of their execution, but likes the design. ■ Will there be some form of wood surround around the arches? (Speier — no, there will be no wood surround; will just be stucco arches.) ■ On the driveway side elevation on the water color, looks like window box is made of wood; is this true? (Speier — will be wood.) ■ Need to clarify design details to better understand the design. ■ Will the siding on the rear elevation be stained? (Speier — yes, will be stained.) ■ Simplify the representation of the attachment of the downspout. ■ It appears that a"nana" wall will be installed in the dining room, but it is not consistently shown on the plans. ■ Electrical panels near the entry are not shown on the elevations; not a good spot for them, too visible. ■ Seems like stairs are missing on the second level. ■ On sheet A-202, not seeing the floor to ceiling windows, window materials are not called out. ■ On north elevation; explain how the roofline transitions are designed. ■ On east elevation of garage; is there support under the overhang?

(Speier — wouldn't have been as effective as a windbreak.) ■ Seems odd that the French doors are facing the front entry. (Speier—will provide the opportunity to see visitors to the house.) ■ The window placement along the kitchen, north elevation (5 windows); the placement will make it difficult to provide upper cabinets. ■ On lower elevation below the glass blocks; would be nice to have clerestory windows to break up the wall and add more ventilation. ■ Want to be certain that the client understands the plans so that no changes are requested later. (Breazeale — indicated that her family's idiosyncrasies have dictated the design.) ■ Questioned the open grass area. (Breazeale—wanted to retain a grass area forchildren.

Could spread out the design a bit. (Breazeale — were trying to minimize the amount of lot covered.) ■ On the rear elevation, perhaps extend the overhang. ■ Noted that the basement drainage must be connected to the City storm drain; encouraged exploring this more to be aware of the cost. Public comments: Pat Giorni, 1445 Balboa Avenue; ■ By exempting the basement, are still providing a large space. ■ Explore the issue of sump pumps; they are running all day, and discharging water every day; recommended a minimal hydrology test to determine where the water lies. ■ The glass wall on the west wall will cause a fortune to be spent on air conditioning. There were no other comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed. Additional Commission comments: ■ Generally supports the design. ■ Provide material details, sizes and types. ■ Clarify type of windows to be used.

She left the Council Chambers. 10 Communication Received After Received After Preparation of Staff Report PC Mtg. 03.08.10 Agenda Item #6 -1444 Vancouver Ave. Agenda Item # 4- 117 Costa Rica Ave. From: Jeff Lindstrom [mailto:jeff@jplinc.net] Sent: Monday, March 08, 2010 11:10 AM To: CD/PLG-Meeker, William Subject: 3/8 Meeting C My mother in law passed away unexpectedly yesterday. This afternoon and tonight I will be busy with taking care of some of the details of the funeral. So I will not be able to be at tonight's meeting. The only project that I object to is 117 Costa Rica, the upper dormer does not look proportional to the building, I don't see a purpose for it, the west elevation needs detail, the south elevation does not flow, project need work, too massive for the site. 1444 Vancouver needs more detail, front-south elevation needs to embellish the stair case to tie it into the house , right now it just sticks up in the air, there is no west or north elevation to show those elevation details, plans state vinyl or aluminum windows, states exterior trim to be fiber cement, prefer wood for both windows and trim.

We have since completely redesigned the project with the input from the June 17th hearing and would like to present this new proposal for the March 8, 2010 hearing. The criticism of the original design was both general and specific; general in that the proposed style would not fit into the neighborhood nor the city and specific in criticizing detailing and layout elements that were interfering with the pedestrian scale and accesibility, especially the side entrance configuration, the raised first floor and the closedness of the street facade. We believe that our new design addresses these concerns thoroughly, and the project only retains the schematic floor plan layouts from the previous proposal. The new residence is designed in the Spanish revival style, an architecture that is common in the immediate neighborhood but is also found in some of the defining buildings of old Burlingame such as the train station. This style allows us to break up the mass in the main volume and wings, with different rooflines and orientations which help the project fit into the neighborhood. The side entrance has been turned towards the street, and three arches now lead to the entrance door, which is clearly visible from the street. The street facade in general is much more welcoming towards the neighborhood: the level of the first floor has been reduced from 3' to 18", the guest suite has a balcony with french doors towards the street, so does a second floor bedroom under the gable roof. The overhanging second floor, common in Spanish architecture, further breaks up the mass and shows more architectural details of the style like exposed joists to the street facade and a wooden, enclosed laundry room on the north facade. The use of stucco on most facade areas on the main building is complemented by a stone facade on the garage, following the logic of the roots of the Spanish style to use finished surfaces such as stucco on the main volume and raw materials for secondary uses. We believe the new proposal would contribute to the appeal of the neighborhood and look forward to discussing it with you on March 8th.

Explain why the blend of mass, sca/e and dominant strucfural characteristics of the new construction or addition are consistent with ihe existing structure's design and wifh the existing street and neighborhood. How will the proposed structure or addition affect neighboring properties or structures on those properties? If neighboring properties will not be affected, state why. Compare the proposed addition fo the mass, scale and characteristics of neighboring properties. Think about mass and bulk, landscaping, sunlight/shade, views from neighboring properties. Neighboring properties and structures include those to the right, left, rear and across the street. How does the proposed structure compare to neighboring structures in terms of mass or bulk? If there is no change to the structure, say so. If a new structure is proposed, compare its size, appearance, orientation etc. with other structures in the neighborhood or area. 2. Explain how 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. How does the proposed structure or use compare aesthetically with structures or uses in the existing neighborhood? If it does not affect aesthetics, state why. Was the addition designed to match existing architecture and/or pattern of development on adjacent properties in the neighborhood? Explain why your proposal fits in the neighborhood. How will the structure or addition 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. if you don't feel the character of the neighborhood will change, state why. 3. How will the proposed project be consistent with the residential design guidelines adopfed by the city? Following are the design criteria adopted by the City Council for residential design review. How does your project meet these guidelines? 1. Compatibility of the architectural style with that of ine existing characfer oi the neighbornood; 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 buik of structural components. 4. Explain how the removal of any trees located within the footprint of any new structure or addition is necessary and is consistent wifh fhe city's reforestation requirements. What mitigation is proposed for the removal of any trees? Explain why this mitigation is appropriate. Will any trees be removed as a result of this proposal? If so, explain what type of trees will be removed and if any are protected under city ordinance (C.S. 11.06), why it is necessary to remove the trees, and what is being proposed to replace any trees being removed. If no trees are to be removed, say so. Special Permit for Basement application for 117 Costa Rica Ave 1.) The inclusion of a basement reduces the visible mass of the proposed building by moving uses that do not require extensive daylighting underground. The basement will be used as storage and a music room. By moving the music room to the basement, we can achieve much better sound insulation than in a first or second floor location and significantly reduce potential noise problems. To achieve a design of unobtrusive mass and to succeed in developing a pedestrian scale the proposed residence is designed in Spanish revival style. This works well for the site and program in particular, as Spanish architecture distinguishes the main volume and wings with different rooflines and heights, helping to break up mass. It marks the entry with columns and arches, and the style's more poetic elements such as small balconies with wrought-iron railings and planterboxes under windows are compatible with todays uses and fill the facades with life. On a larger scale the use of a Spanish revival style relates this project to the long history of Spanish style architecture in the immediate neighborhood and in Burlingame. The footprint of the proposed residence in comparison to the neighborhood is documented on the cover sheet and shows that configuration and size are within the ranges found in the area. The silhouette comparison (also on the cover sheet) show that the project is situated between a single story bungalow to the north and a newer two-story residence to the south. The proposed silhouette is larger than the northern neighbor, but smaller than the southern one. The driveway is located between the propsed residence and the single-story neighbor in order not to shade the smaller neighbor. Distance and privacy to the southern neighbor is enhanced by the courtyard. 2.) The basement does not directly affect the exterior appearance of the house, however it allows the reduction of bulk above ground. The street facade is mainly composed of the gable roof of the main volume and the side view of the eastern wing of the residence. Along with the west wing these roof lines break up the mass of the building considerably to achieve a pedestrian scale. The overhanging second floor, a common element in spanish architecture, further structures the facade and allows for additional period detailing offering another resting point to the eye as do planter boxes under the windows and functional shutters. Residences in Spanish style are common in the neighborhood, with the above design elements frequently found. 3.) This style of architecture is frequently found in the neighborhood, both in old buildings and recent construction. The exterior stucco finish is very common in the neighborhood and complements and showcases the details such as exposed rafters and wrought-iron railings. The rear garage layout is the dominant pattern in the neighborhood to create privacy in rear gardens. its stone facade follows the logic of materials found in the roots of spanish style: highly finished facades for the main building (stucco) but raw facade materials for secondary buildings and volumes. The stone facade will also make it blend in with the gardening and turn the garage into an unobtrusive divider for the rear gardens. 4.) No trees are removed within the footprint, however, two old plum trees along the southern property line will be removed. The landscape plan proposes 7 new landscaping trees, more than required by the city ordinance. i"i�V�!`°� �:::�' ti1AR - I 201C CITl' Ot= BURL.INGAtv1E pIANNING DEPT J � • � • � ' ! i't ! i • �' ',,�` .� '.:� �. � b.. _�g � � �F �' �% 1 � > �',,,�',,_- �:��-mw i��Casta Rica �,^•'�-,-- � , ���`� � ie �""�,� '�'`��''� �� � ^�a��A � . . � � ' ��: �,� � 1 13 Costa Rica �, � � $� �.� � ��' �` �, ��� .���.�n i� '�+ ��� r �.,t . �'_���� `=e�` . 117 Costa Rica - project site 1���i Costa R6ca °� ��- � � i.�r��i: _ _ �<.� y � ? a �� �����; � �� �°�.

CITY OF BURLINGAME PLANN/NG COMMISSION — Unapproved Minufes July 13, 2009 8. 117 COSTA RICA AVENUE, ZONED R-1 — APPLICATION FOR DESIGN REVIEW FOR A NEW, TWO- STORY SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING AND DETACHED GARAGE (FLORIAN SPEIER, APPLICANTAND DESIGNER; JOLANDA AND GARY BREAZEALE, PROPERTY OWNERS) STAFF CONTACT: ERICA STROHMEIER Reference staff report dated July 13, 2009, with attachments. Associate Planner Strohmeier briefly presented the project description. There were no questions of staff. Chair Terrones opened the public comment period. Florian Speier, 2932 McKinley Avenue, Berkeley, represented the applicant. Commission comments: • What is garage door material (Florian Speier— would be wood to go with the rest of the house.) ■ W hy is front door not on front of house? (Florian Speier— improved the layout of the house, trying to maintain privacy and get good lighting, clients wanted a large double story entrance in the middle.) ■ Looking at plan and site planning, getting excited with difFerentthings happening, courtyard on south side, but looking at roof plan, is a radical departure from architectural vocabulary we see around Burlingame, like to see explanation on how it fits neighborhood. (Florian Speier — main design consideration to respecting adjoining residences, trred more traditional styles, had more bulk at street, with this style will reduce the height at the front, olderhouses in neighborhood have clear and simple roofs, trying to avoid a complicated roof.) • Understand that a good portion of the house is springing from a story and half, but it is a large house on a larger lot, would like to see more articulation on front elevation, there is not enough that talks about entry and invites people to it from the street, iYs a pretty blank wall with a peculiar shape and peculiarly shaped windows. The front elevation is usually a place where we like to see a vocabulary that addresses the street. ■ We would expect front of house to respond more directly to vocabulary around Burlingame, notjust adding something to add decoration, there are things that can be done to integrate it more. ■ Not sure what you're trying to do, don't think it fits in with neighborhood at all, too bulky, seems like cabin in Lake Tahoe because of the bulkiness, the front fa�ade, and the doorway on the side. Cannot support it as it stands. ■ Don't understand where the design is coming from, we appreciate both contemporary and traditional ,�._, ' L.� �+ +I ' + f +� � I (`n +' . • . f r+n4 � .

Roof is brought down on driveway side where could have more mass, on side closer to neighbor it is more massive. ■ i nere is a wide poriai tucked inio tne roofi rorm, but notning is expressed on exterior, wnai is expressed is a broad shingled roof. ■ Appreciate effort in green features, but we have seen designs that achieve these things but also are contextual and fit in with neighborhood. ■ West elevation looks like something that would look over Lake Tahoe and distant views. (Florian Speier— there is a green oasis at the rear, that's why a lof of glass is used on that elevation, there are no other windows from neighboring properiies and lot is deep.) ■ Looking for pedestrian scale on front elevation. • Not necessari�y looking for quaint storybooks, have seen contemporary designs that incorporate @18111CIIlJ VI JCcI1C. • Quirky design, some positive aspects, love the loft on second floor, if you could move entry to front and a�iculate ironi entryway, and reconfigure spaces to get drama you wani. Reserve ihe grand gestures to the back rather than the side elevations. 17 CITY OF BURLINGAME PLANN/NG COMMISSION — Unapproved Minutes July 13, 2009 There is a beautiful example cattycorner across the street, has beautiful porch, announces front door. Look at driveway, it is a long driveway that requires extra movement to get in and out. Public Comments: ■ Ed Bohnert, 124 Costa Rica, Mary Ann Nichols; 116 Costa Rica, Pat Giorni, 1445 Balboa; Tom Buckley, 113 Costa Rica spoke. • Don't think iYs an attractive home for neighborhood, disappointed, aesthetics aren't what Burlingame is about, don't think it fits. ■ Agree with Commission about the feel of the house, it looks sideways and is barnlike, roofline doesn'tfeel like iYs in harmonywith neighborhood. Only required to have one parking space, seem to have parking issues in the neighborhood. Presented a picture of house on Occidental and Howard, is shingle on outside and it is not weathering weli, too rustic looking. • When I looked at plans, couldn't figure out where front door is, from pedestrian point of view, is a retreat, is not a home welcoming neighbors, this would be great house on the Lost Coast, but does not fit in to the Costa Rica neighborhood, ask that applicant and homeowner rethink what they want their house to look like. Suggest project be sent to design review consultant. ■ Welcome them to neighborhood, but have a problem with the garage, it is barely able to be accessed, don't believe someone will park their car in the garage, and will impact street parking, should be redesigned to give more room to garage to relieve parking problems, agree it should be sent to design review for the reasons commission has stated. There were no further comments and the public hearing was closed. Commissioner Auran made a motion to refer the item to a design review consultant. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Cauchr. Chair Terrones called for a vote on the motion to refer this item to a design revrew consultant. The motion passed on a voice vote 6-0-1 (Commissioner Lindstrom a6sent). Appeal procedures were advised. The Planning Commission's action is advisory and not appealable. This item concluded at 9:34 p.m. Commission comment: ii ii�e a�piic;ani wa��ied io cuiiipieiely re�esiyn ii�e N�ojeci, pruCess uouiu siai i ovei aiiu iil'e ievi'seu project could be brought back to the Commission for Design Review Study rather than to a design review consultant. m Project Comments Date To: November 24, 2009 uf City Engineer (650) 558-7230 ❑ Recycling Specialist (650) 558-7273 ❑ Fire Marshal (650) 558-7600 ❑ NPDES Coordinator (650) 342-3727 ❑ City Attorney ❑ Chief Building Official (650) 558-7260 ❑ City Arborist (650) 558-7254 From Planning Staff Subject: Request for revised application for Design Review and Special Permit for a basement for a new Single Family Dwelling and detached garage at 117 Costa Rica Avenue, zoned R-1, APN: 028-316-090 Staff Review: November 30, 2009 1.

Applicant and Designer: Florian Speier, Zeitgeist Design Property Owners: Jolanda and Gary Breazeale General Plan: Low Density Residential APN: 028-316-090 Lot Area: 8,220 SF Zoning: R-1 Background: On July 13, 2009, the Planning Commission reviewed an application for Design Reviewfora new, two-story single family dwelling and detached garage at their Design Review Study Meeting. The Commission had many comments and concerns about the proposal and voted to send the project to a design review consultant. They also proposed the option to completely redesign the project and to return to the Planning Commission as a Design Review Study item rather than going to the design review consultant. The applicant chose to completely redesign the project and resubmitted an application for the revised project to the Planning Division on November 24, 2009. Based upon documents that were submitted to the Planning Division by a Burlingame Citizen on September 25, 2009, it was indicated that the entire subdivision within which this property is located (Burlingame Park No. 2) may have historical characteristics that would indicate that properties within this area could be potentially eligible for listing on the National or California Register of Historical Places. Because the revised application was submitted to the Planning Division after September 25, 2009, a Historic Resource Evaluation was prepared for this property by Page & Turnbull, Inc. The results of the evaluation concluded that the building contains sufficient historic integrity to be considered a contributing resource to a potential historic district, but it is not eligible for individual listing on the California Register of Historical Resources under several criterions. Planning Staff will prepare an Initial Study and Negative Declaration to support the findings of the Historic Resource Evaluation prior to the Planning Commission Action Hearing for this project. Project Description: The applicant is proposing to demolish an existing single-story house and detached garage to build a new, two-story single family dwelling with a basement area and a detached garage. The proposed house and detached garage will have a total floor area of 3,944 SF (0.48 FAR) where 4,130 SF (0.50 FAR) is the maximum allowed (project is 186 SF below the maximum allowed FAR). The entire basement area (631 SF) is exempt from the FAR calculation, because it meets the City's definition of a basement. The project includes a detached garage (468 SF) which provides one code-compliant covered parking space for the proposed four-bedroom house. There is one uncovered parking space (9' x 20') provided in the driveway. 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 detached garage (CS 25.57.010); and ■ Special Permit for a basement with a ceiling height greater than 6'-6" (8'-0" proposed) (CS 25.28.035, f). 117 Cosfa Rica Avenue Lot Area: 8,220 SF Plans Date Stam ed: Februa 24, 2010 : PROPOSED ALLOWED/REQUIRED SETBACKS i _.__....-------------..._._....----- r; �::� � 1�� f';): (2nd flr): ; _ ._ ___ Side (left): ; (right): ; LV�-� U�� 27'-0" (to cantilever) _._..-- ---..--- _..._._ __ 4'-0 (to guestroom) 5'-4" (to 2�d story roof eave) L."ri - i �i�� �vivi.n 3VEi ay8� 25'-10" (block averaqel _ ._.._.. _ _ _........ 4'-0" !�i}i Environmental Scoping, Desrgn Review and Special Permit 117 Costa Rica Avenue PROPOSED ALLOWED/REQUIRED Rear (1st flr): : 79'-0" (to treilis) 15'-0" (2nd flr): '; 82'-6" (to 2"d story eave) 20'-0" __.._.. . . ------ _ _....._ _ _.__..__ _.._. _ ._ .._. ----_ _- Lot Coverage 2,418.5 SF 3,288 SF 29% 40% -- --- ----- ----_..._ _....__.. _ ........... ........... _— ---......_ . .._..___-_ FAR : 3,944.3 SF 4,130.4 SF 0.48 FAR 0.50 FAR' _.... _..___.__ . _...... --. _ __...... --- - - ----- _..__ _...__ . # of bedrooms. 4 --- _._ ___.. __._.. _--- ----..._._ _. .... _..__.__ . ..----- - -....__ . _ _.._.. _.._... _ .. ....

S�\Handouts\PC Appfication 2008-B.handout 117 Costa Rica Ave, propsal for a new single-family residence and detached garage The original design for 117 Costa Rica Ave was proposed at the June 17th, 2009 public hearing but was met by both residents and commissioners with severe reservations. We have since completely redesigned the project with the input from the June 17th hearing and would like to present this new proposal for the March 8, 2010 hearing. The criticism of the original design was both general and specific; general in that the proposed style would not fit into the neighborhood nor the city and specific in criticizing detailing and layout elements that were interfering with the pedestrian scale and accesibility, especially the side entrance configuration, the raised first floor and the closedness of the street facade. We believe that our new design addresses these concerns thoroughly, and the project only retains the schematic floor plan layouts from the previous proposal. The new residence is designed in the Spanish revival style, an architecture that is common in the immediate neighborhood but is also found in some of the defining buildings of old Burlingame such as the train station. This style allows us to break up the mass in the main volume and wings, with different rooflines and orientations which help the project fit into the neighborhood. The side entrance has been turned towards the street, and three arches now lead to the entrance door, which is clearly visible from the street. The street facade in general is much more welcoming towards the neighborhood: the level of the first floor has been reduced from 3' to 18", the guest suite has a balcony with french doors towards the street, so does a second f�oor bedroom under the gable roof. The overhanging second floor, common in Spanish architecture, further breaks up the mass and shows more architectural details of the style like exposed joists to the street facade and a wooden, enclosed laundry room on the north facade. The use of stucco on most facade areas on the main building is complemented by a stone facade on the garage, following the logic of the roots of the Spanish style to use finished surfaces such as stucco on the main volume and raw materials for secondary uses. We believe the new proposal would contribute to the appeal of the neighborhood and look forward to discussing it with you on March 8th.

Rev. 07.2008 �i See over for explanation of above questions. SPECIAL.PERMIT.APP.FORM Special Permit for Basement application for 117 Costa Rica Ave 1.) The inclusion of a basement reduces the visible mass of the proposed building by moving uses that do not require extensive daylighting underground. The basement will be used as storage and a music room. By moving the music room to the basement, we can achieve much better sound insulation than in a first or second floor location and significantly reduce potential noise problems. To achieve a design of unobtrusive mass and to succeed in developing a pedestrian scale the proposed residence is designed in Spanish revival style. This works well for the site and program in particular, as Spanish architecture distinguishes the main volume and wings with difFerent rooflines and heights, helping to break up mass. It marks the entry with columns and arches, and the style's more poetic elements such as small balconies with wrought-iron railings and planterboxes under windows are compatible with todays uses and fill the facades with life. On a larger scale the use of a Spanish revival style relates this project to the long history of Spanish style architecture in the immediate neighborhood and in Burlingame. The footprint of the proposed residence in comparison to the neighborhood is documented on the cover sheet and shows that configuration and size are within the ranges found in the area. The silhouette comparison (also on the cover sheet) show that the project is situated between a single story bungalow to the north and a newer two-story residence to the south. The proposed silhouette is larger than the northern neighbor, but smaller than the southern one. The driveway is located between the propsed residence and the single-story neighbor in order not to shade the smaller neighbor. Distance and privacy to the southern neighbor is enhanced by the courtyard. 2.) The basement does not directly affect the exterior appearance of the house, however it allows the reduction of bulk above ground. The street facade is mainly composed of the gable roof of the main volume and the side view of the eastern wing of the residence. Along with the west wing these roof lines break up the mass of the building considerably to achieve a pedestrian scale. The overhanging second floor, a common element in spanish architecture, further structures the facade and allows for additional period detailing offering another resting point to the eye as do planter boxes under the windows and functional shutters. Residences in Spanish style are common in the neighborhood, with the above design elements frequently found. 3.) This style of architecture is frequently found in the neighborhood, both in old buildings and recent construction. The exterior stucco finish is very common in the neighborhood and complements and showcases the details such as exposed rafters and wrought-iron railings. The rear garage layout is the dominant pattern in the neighborhood to create privacy in rear gardens. Its stone facade follows the logic of materials found in the roots of spanish style: highly finished facades for the main building (stucco) but raw facade materials for secondary buildings and volumes. The stone facade will also make it blend in with the gardening and turn the garage into an unobtrusive divider for the rear gardens. 4.) No trees are removed within the footprint, however, two old plum trees along the southern property line will be removed. The landscape plan proposes 7 new landscaping trees, more than required by the city ordinance.

Associate Planner Strohmeier briefly presented the project description. There were no questions of staff. Chair Terrones opened the public comment period. Florian Speier, 2932 McKinley Avehue, Berkeley, represented the applicant. Commission comments: ■ What is garage door material (Florian Speier— would be wood to go wrth the rest of the house.) • Why is front door not on front of house? (Florian Speier— improved the layouf of fhe house, trying to maintain privacy and get good lighting, clients wanted a large double story entrance in the middle.) • Looking at plan and site planning, getting excited with different things happening, courtyard on south side, but looking at roof plan, is a radical departure from architectural vocabulary we see around Burlingame, like to see explanation on how it fits neighborhood. (Florian Speier — main design consideration to respecting adjoining residences, tried more traditional styles, had mo�e bulk at street, with this style will reduce the height at the front, olderhouses in neighborhood have clearand simple roofs, trying to avoid a complicated roof.) ■ Understand that a good portion of the house is springing from a story and half, but it is a large house on a larger lot, would like to see more articulation on front elevation, there is not enough that talks about entry and invites people to it from the street, iYs a pretty blank wall with a peculiar shape and peculiarly shaped windows. The front elevation is usually a place where we like to see a vocabulary that addresses the street. • We would expect front of house to respond more directly to vocabulary around Burlingame, notjust adding something to add decoration, there are things that can be done to integrate it more. ■ Not sure what you're trying to do, don't think it fits in with neighborhood at all, too bulky, seems like cabin in Lake Tahoe because of the bulkiness, the front fa�ade, and the doorway on the side. Cannot support it as it stands. ■ Don't understand where the design is coming from, we appreciate both contemporary and traditional u�Slyi�, �U� ^�..S��j% uj�N��cCi3�2 C^vi���n u?� �SSI^y�i. v3CiY I�i�a^y1��8 �T�Cf2 iil3SS I�� Fivi�< <�13�i VJ�2i IS proposed. Roof is brought down on driveway side where could have more mass, on side closer to neighbor it is more massive. ■ i nere is a wide poRai iucked into tne roor rorm, out noining is expressed on exterior, wnai is expressed is a broad shingled roof. ■ Appreciate effort in green features, but we have seen designs that achieve these things but also are contextual and fit in with neighborhood. ■ West elevation looks like something that wou�d look over Lake Tahoe and distant views. (Florian Speier— there is a green oasis at the rear, thaf's why a lot of g/ass is used on that elevation, there are no other windows from neighboring properties and lot is deep.) � Looking for pedestrian scale on front elevation. ■ Noi necessarily iooking Tor a,uaini siorybooks, have seen contemporary designs that incorporate ZICIIIBIIIJ OI Jl:cflC. - ^uirky desicn, scme pcsi:ive aspects, !ave the loft on second flocr, if you ca,:ld mcve ertry to frcrt anci a�iiculaie iror�i eniryvti�ay, and reconiigure spaces io get drama you wani. Reserve ihe grand gestures io ihe back raiher ihan ihe side elevations. 17 ClT',✓ OF BURLINGAME PLANNING COMMISSION — Unapproved Minutes July �3, 2009 • There is a beautiful example cattycorner across the street, has beautiful porch, announces front door. ■ Look at driveway, it is a long driveway that requires extra movement to get in and out. Public Comments: � Ed Bohnert, 124 Costa Rica, Mary Ann Nichols; 116 Costa Rica, Pat Giorni, 1445 Balboa; Tom Buckley, 113 Costa Rica spoke. � Don't think iYs an attractive home for neighborhood, disappointed, aesthetics aren't what Burlingame is about, don't think it fits. • Agree with Commission about the feel of the house, it looks sideways and is barnlike, roofline doesn't feel like it's in harmonywith neighborhood. Only required to have one parking space, seem to have parking issues in the neighborhood. Presented a picture of house on Occidental and Howard, is shingle on outside and it is not weathering well, too rustic looking. • When I looked at plans, couldn't figure out where front door is, from pedestrian point of view, is a retreat, is not a home welcoming neighbors, this would be great house on the Lost Coast, but does not fit in to the Costa Rica neighborhood, ask that applicant and homeowner rethink what they want their house to look like. Suggest project be sent to design review consultant. ■ Welcome them to neighborhood, but have a problem with the garage, it is barely able to be accessed, don't believe someone will park their car in the garage, and will impact street parking, should be redesigned to give more room to garage to relieve parking problems, agree it should be sent to design review for the reasons commission has stated. There were no further comments and the public hearing was closed. Commissioner Auran made a motion to refer the item to a design review consultant. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Cauchi. Chair Terrones called for a vote on the motion to refer this item to a design revrew consultant. The motion passed on a voice vote 6-0-1 (Commissroner Lindstrom absenf). Appeal procedures were advised. The Planning Commission's action is advisory and not appealable.
