Summary: The applicant, Dollar Rent A Caz, Inc., is requesting amendments to special permits to
reestablish and reconfigure an existing automobile rental business at 1801- 1831 Bayshore Highway and
840 Cowan Road, zoned O-M.
History: A special permit was first granted for a car rental agency at 1815 Bayshore Highway in 1969.
In 1978, the special permit was amended to include car storage at a parcel located behind 1831 Bayshore
Avenue. In 1979, a special permit was approved for property at 840 Cowan Road to provide additional
vehicle storage for the Dollar Rent A Car business at 1815 Bayshore Highway. In 1979, an special
permit amendment was granted to authorize the sale of used rental cars on the front portion of the lot
located at 1801 Bayshore. This area is no longer used for-�ental car sales, and that permit will be
revoked as a part of this action. The applicant now wants to use the previous car sales area as customer
parking and rental vehicle storage. Within the last few years, Dollar Rent A Car has been leasing the
property at 1831 Bayshore Highway for their corporate offices. Since this was an office use, no special
permit was required.
Current Proposal: The cunent special permit application is to operate Dollar Rent A Car as a sole
tenant business on these 4 properties and to consolidate all previous approvals. While operating as a
sole tenant on three of the properties (totaling 4.81 acres), they are not in common ownership so will
not be merged, therefore the uses of each interrelated site are outlined below:
' AMENDMENT TO SPECIAL PERMITS I801-1831 Bayshore Highway & 840 Cowan Road
1831 Bayshore Highway - The existing office building on this site will be used for regional offices and
as a tour center to process car rental transactions for pre-sold tour travelers. There are two spaces for
pazking of two tour buses and two handicap parking spaces adjacent to the building. The paved azea
behind the building along Cowan Road will continue to be used for rental car storage for 45 cars.
1815 Bayshore Highway - The existing building will be remodeled and a porkion of the building
fronting on Bayshore Highway will be demolished to accommodate a maintenance, cleaning, servicing
and fueling facility for the rental fleet vehicles. Some car rental storage and customer parking (23
spaces) will also be provided on this site.
1801 Bayshore Highway - There is an existing warehouse building on the site which is used by
Crossroads Espresso. This use will remain, and the required 12 parking spaces for this building will
be designated adjacent to the building. The remainder of the parking spaces on the site will be used for
customer and employee parking (20 spaces) for the Dollar Rent A Car facilities at 1815 & 1831
Bayshore Highway and for rental vehicle storage (12 spaces). This site is not included in the 0.7 acre
minimum acreage to meet the criteria for car rental use in the O-M district since Dollar Rent A Car is
not the sole tenant of the site.
840 Cowan Road - This site is currently used for rental vehicle storage (storage for 300 cars) and
employee parking (15 parldng spaces). The area is to be used for de-fleeting and in-fleeting staging of
the rental vehicles. All cars will be off loaded and loaded onto car carriers on this site.
The entire Dollaz Rent A Car facility will consist of a 10,000 SF building to be used as a tour center
and corporate offices, a 6000 SF building for servicing rental car vehicles, 28 employee/customer
parking spaces and 5 handicap parking spaces at 1801 and 1815 Bayshore Highway; a loading area to
accommodate two tour buses at 1831 Bayshore Highway, 15 employee parking spaces at 840 Cowan
Road, 67 parldng spaces for rental vehicle storage at 1801-1831 Bayshore Highway, and storage for 300
rental vehicles at 840 Cowan Road, a total of 4.81 acres. The existing Crossroads Espresso Warehouse
and its required 12 parking spaces will remain on the western portion of the site at 1801 Bayshore
Highway. There will be a total of 46 employee/customer parking spaces and storage for 367 rental
vehicles for the Dollar Rent A Car facility. The average monthly rentals are projected to be 1305
vehicles; therefore car storage is provided for 28% of the fleet.
The automobile rental facility will be open for business seven days a week from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00
p. m. Currently there aze 24 full-time employees and 1 part-time employee on weekdays before 5:00
p.m., and 1 full-time employee after 5:00 p.m. On weekends, there are two full time employees before
5:00 p. m. and 1 full-time employee after 5:00 p. m. In two years, the there is expected to be 32 full-
time and 1 part-time employees on weekdays before 5:00 p. m. , and 4 full-time employees after 5:00
p.m. It is expected that there will be 6 full-time employees before 5:00 p.m. and 2 full-time employees
after 5:00 p. m. on weekends.
There are cunently a maximum of 60 visitors/customers per day who come to the site. This number
is expected to increase to 80 people in 2 years and to 100 people in 5 years. A maximum of 47 people
are expected to be on site at any one time. There are also six, 18-passenger buses and one cargo van
which will bus customers from the airport to the site. No lazge deliveries to the site for this business
are expected.

' AMEN`DMENT TO SPECIAL PERMITS 1801-I83I Bayshore Highway & 840 Cowan Road
The O-M zoning district specifies that automobile rental businesses require a special permit and must
meet the following minimum standards.
1. the use is the sole tenant and only occupant of any building or area on the site;
2. the site has a minimum size of .7 (seven-tenths) of an acre;
3. pazking is provided on site for storage of at least 25 percent of the cars rented monthly, based
on an annual average for the site;
4. parking is provided on site for all employees and customers; and
5. the use meets all the other requirements of development in the district, including peak hour trip
generation at critical intersections as defined in the Traffic Analyzer and Specific Area Plan for
the Bayfront/Anza Areas.
Since there is no expansion of the use beyond what was previously at the site, and no new or expanded
buildings aze proposed, there will be no increase in vehicle trips. Therefore, it was determined that an
analysis of the traffic impacts of this project using the Traffic Analyzer is not required.
There are two buildings which will be used for the automobile rental business, and the use is the sole
tenant of each building. The combined acreage of the Bayshore site is 2.31 acres, and the Cowan Road
site consists of 2.5 acres, a total of 4.81 acres where 0.7 acre is the minimum required. As noted in
the attached letter from Dollar Rent A Car date stamped August 29, 1997, the average number of
vehicles rented is 1305 per month. This results in a requirement of storage for 326 vehicles (25 % of
1305 rentals per month). There is storage space on the two sites for a total of 367 vehicles (28 % of the
fleet on a monthly average). In addition, a total of 46 employee/customer parking spaces are provided
on the two sites (maximum of 32 employees expected per shift).
Since there will be no additions to buildings or no new buildings proposed, the Bayfront Development
Design Guidelines do not apply. In addition, the landscaping requirements of the O-M district only
apply when structures aze added or expanded. However, the applicant is proposing to increase the
amount of landscaping along the frontage at 1801 Bayshore Highway, and to maintain the exisdng
landscaping on the balance of the sites. The landscaping requirements for 840 Cowan Road were a part
of the previous use permit and have been met.
Staff Comments: The City Engineer notes (August 1, 1997 memo) that a special encroachment permit
may be required for the illuminated monument sign shown along Bayshore Highway, and that an
encroachment permit will be required for any new curb/gutter and driveway installation or driveway
widening. The City Engineer also notes (September 2, 1997 memo) 1) a concern that storage for airport
car rental continues for pollar Rent A Car, the traffic problems by that use will remain without revenue
from the use; 2) that proper signing for parking space assignment is needed; 3) a traffic signal is being
considered at Cowan Road and Bayshore Highway, and this facility should participate in its portion of
the cost based on their traffic use; 4) the sign at the entrance on Bayshore may be in the public right-of-
way and must be relocated, the sidewalk is not shown on Bayshore, show details; 5) show traffic pattern
proposed by shuttle buses, there is a median in Bayshore Highway so no left turns are possible. The
Chief Building Inspector and the Fire Mazshal had no comments on the project.

Planning staff would note that on a site visit the week of August 25, 1997, a car carrier was observed
unloading vehicles on the street in front of 840 Cowan Road, an activity which blocks the free, safe flow
of traffic on Cowan Road. Also, these sites although used together for this activity are independently
owned; therefore interlocking use permits will be required to insure that when the use leaves one of the
sites, all the others will be automatically up for review so that the deficiencies caused by the change can
be addressed on the remaining sites or the operation/use changes to accommodate. Plans should show
how car carriers will unload and load vehicles on the 840 Cowan Road site and what provisions will be
made for their continued access to the area.

Study Meeting: At the September 8, 1997 Planning Commission study meeting, the commission asked
staff to clarify which conditions will apply to specific sites and which to all sites, and how will the
flexibility for the whole use be achieved. Staff has prepared the conditions so that there is an overall
condition applied to each property which ties all of the properties together into one special permit, and
specific conditions are applied to each address. Since this special permit application is for one activity
on several parcels which aze interdependent on each other, it was determined that it was best to make
sure that the properties be tied together in one special permit. If any of the properties is removed from
the operation, this special permit would become null and void, and a new special permit would be
required to make sure that all requirements for the use were met on the remaining property.
The Commission asked what the City revenue is from this site now and what will it be if this project
is developed. The City Finance Director has indicated that sales tax information on individual properties
is confidential, and cannot be provided to the Commission. The Commission also asked how many cars
are rented from this site now, and how many will be rented from it after the changes. The applicant has
responded in the attached letter date stamped September 16, 1997. Dollar Rent A Car averages 1015
rentals per month of cars stored at this site. However, all the rental contracts have been written at the
airport, therefore the city receives no sales tax from these transactions. After this change, about 1305
rental contracts a month for pre-sold tours will be signed in Burlingame at 1831 Bayshore Highway.

' AMENbMENT TO SPECIAL PERMITS I801-1831 Bayshore Highway & 840 Cowan Road
The Commission notes that the O-M district requires that there be a specific site size and that the car
rental operator be the sole tenant, how does this apply to the Crossroads Expresso site where there is
already one business on the site, is this an existing nonconforming use? The O-M district requires a
minimum 0.7 acre site for a car rental facility, but it doesn't require that it be on one pazcel. The
property at 1801-1831 Bayshore Highway actually consists of four separate parcels, combined they total
2.31 acres; the site at Cowan Road consists of 6 parcels totaling 2.5 acres. A portion of the Crossroads
F�cpresso site has been used by Dollaz Rent-A-Car site since 1980 and therefore the dual use of this site
is existing nonconforming. Staff would note that this portion of the site is not needed to meet the zoning
requirement for a minimum 0.7 acre site, and there is adequate parking for the Crossroads Expresso
building designated on the site.
The Commission also noted that they are providing required parking on separate sites, can the 0.7 acre
requirement be met on different sites, and have we allowed off-site parking. The site at 1801 Bayshore
consists of 0.77 acre, 1815 Bayshore consists of 0.64 acre, 1831 Bayshore consists of 0.90 acre, and
840 Cowan Road consists of 2.5 acres. As noted above, it is not required that the 0.7 acre minimum
be met on each separate parcel, since the special permit will require all parcels to operate
interdependently. It should be noted that although some employee parking is designated at the 1801
Bayshore site and the Cowan Road site, as proposed each property meets its own on-site parking
requirement (based on building square footage and use). The storage of cazs and the employee parking
at 840 Cowan Road is in excess of the minimum requirement.
The Commission noted that the previous use pernut on the Cowan Road site showed layout that provided
for car delivery trucks to load and unload on site, asked how this is provided in this application, and
asked that this be notetl on the current plans. The applicant has submitted revised plans for the Cowan
Road site date stamped September 16, 1997 showing a location for car carriers to load and unload and
the arrangement of storage areas to accommodate this truck access and loading/unloading.
Findings for a Special Peimit: In order to grant a Special Permit the Planning Commission must find
that the following conditions exist on the property (Code Section 25.52.020 a-c):
(a) the proposed use, at the proposed location, will not be detrimental or injurious to property or
improvements in the vicinity, and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, general
welfare, or convenience;
(b) the proposed use will be located and conducted in a manner in accord with the Burlingame
general plan and the purposes of this title;
(c) the Planning Commission may impose such reasonable conditions or restrictions as it deems
necessary to secure the purposes of this title and to assure operation of the use in a manner
compatible with the aesthetics, mass, bulk and character of existing and potential uses on
adjoining properties in the general vicinity.
Planning Commission Action: The Planning Commission should hold a public hearing. Affirmative
action should be taken by resolution and should include findings. The reasons for any action should be
clearly stated. At the public hearing the following conditions should be considered:

The Planning Commission is required by law to make findings as defined by the City's ordinance
(Code Section 25.52.020). Your answers to the following questions will assist the Planning
Commission in making the decision as to whether the findings can be made for your request.
Please type or write neatly in ink. Refer to the back of this form for assistance with these
questions.
1. Exp/ain why the proposed use at the proposed /ocation wi// not be det�imenta/ or. injurious
to property or impro vements in the vicinity oi to pub/ic hea/th, safety, gene�a/ we/fare, or
convenience.
The proposed use is basically identical to the existing use under previously issued permits,
therefore causing no significant or additional burden on public infrastructure systems. Neighboring
properties and businesses will experience no increased noise or other nuisance levels, public
convenience will not be disturbed, police and fire protection is adequate, and the proposal is consistent
with the city's zoning and development policies. In addition, jobs will be preserved or created, and
significant sales tax revenues generated for the city.
2.
3.
How wi// the proposed use be /ocated and conducted in accordance with the Bur/ingame
Genera/ Plan and Zoning OrdinanceT
The proposed project site is zoned office-manufacturing. Aside from the fact that the applicant's
use is authorized under existing special permits and/or grandfathered�0-M zoning ordinance No. 1495
Section 25.43.030 allows automobile rental businesses as a conditional use if certain minimum standards
are satisfied. The applicanYs proposed use satisfies those standards in that: (a) applicant is the sole
tenant of the site; (b) the site exceeds the minimum of .7 acres; (c) on site parking is available for more
than 25% of applicanYs cars rented monthly; (d) on site parking is available for all employees and
customers; and (e) applicanYs use meets all othe� requirements of development in the district. Many
other car rental companies are conducting similar business activities in the area.
Ho w wil/ the proposed project be compatib/e with the aesthetics, mass, bu/k and character
of the existing and potentia/ uses on adjoining properties in the genera/ vicinityT
The proposed structures will remain the same with the exception of interior improvements at 1831
Bayshore Highway. Additional/im�roved landscape will improve the aesthetics of the neighborhood. The
structure and use will remain compatible with the character of the neighborhood in that buildings are
existing and compliant, and applicant has conducted nearly identical operations from the site since the
1970's. Applicant does not foresee any additional tra�c or parking problems resulting from the proposed
use since, as noted above, the use has existed since the 1970's. The proposed project is compatible with
other uses in the vicinity which include numerous other rental car operations.
