Property Owner: Bill Nerli
Lot Dimensions and Area: 5,225 SF Zoning: C-1
General Plan: Commercial, Retail Shopping and Service
Adjacent Development: Multifamily Residential, Commercial, Retail and Food Establishment
CEQA Status: Article 19. Categorically Exempt per Section 15301 Existing Facilities, Class 1
consists of operation, repair, maintenance, or minor alteration of existing public or private
structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no
expansion of use beyond that previously existing, including but not limited to: (a) interior or
exterior alterations involving such things as interior partitions, plumbing, and electrical
conveyances.
Previous Use: Behan's Irish Pub, eating establishment
Proposed Use: Behan's Irish Pub, eating establishment with outdoor seating
Allowable Use: Commercial retail and eating establishment
Summary: The applicant, Gerard Mitchell, is requesting a special permit and parking variance
in order to expand an existing 1,566 SF food establishment for outdoor seating at Behan's Irish
Pub, 1327 Broadway, zoned C-1, Broadway Commercial Area. The proposed seating area is
located behind the existing 17'-3" X 19'-10" storage structure. The applicant is proposing to
expand seating and service into an unimproved outdoor area located at the rear of the property.
The paved patio azea measures 16' -2'/z" X 24' -10" , 403 SF in area and would accommodate two
picnic tables. The existing restaurant has 1,566 SF of interior seating area, kitchen and
bathrooms. An existing 342 SF accessory structure (used for storage) will remain between the
restaurant and the outdoor seating area. The proposed patio seating is immediately adjacent to an
apartment building. The food establishment with outdoor seating would be 1,908 SF, representing
a 22 % increase in floor area.
There will be no on-site parking provided for the expansion of the food establishment (403 SF).
A parking variance for two spaces (1:200, parking ratio for food establishment) is required for
1
i.!. rrr. ��.� '� i� tr.�� � .i�� rr � �i� y,�r iu r. ���,�
the addition of the outdoor patio seating on this site. Existing public parking is provided on the
street and in public lots along Paloma and Capuchino Avenues. Lots P and Q on Paloma Avenue
provide a total of 42 spaces (Lot P, 14 spaces + Lot Q, 24 spaces=42 spaces). Lot R near the
corner of Capuchino and Broadway has 34 public pazking spaces.
There is an existing 10'-4" high block wall at the rear of the property adjacent to the apartment
building and an existing 6'-0" high wood fence along the side property line adjacent to the service
alley. A new 7'-0" high wood fence will be provided along the side of the property which would
enclose the patio area and sepazate it from the existing parking area used by other tenants in the
building. The fence will have a gate that allows access from the alley at the rear of adjacent
properties to the storage structure. The applicant noted that the parking area behind the building
is not striped and is not designated for customer parking.
The restaurant is open Monday through Sunday 10:00 a. m. to 2:00 a. m. The ma�cimum number
of employees is two, one full time and one part time. The applicant projects the maximum
number of employees and customers on site at any one time is 50 (96 on St. Patrick's Day). The
projected number of customers is 20 on weekdays and 50 on weekends. In five years, the
applicant projects the number of customers will increase to 25 on weekdays and 55 on weekends.
The restaurant cunently has an amusement permit for entertainers on Saturdays and recorded
music on Sundays from 9:30 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. (June 4, 19961etter from City Clerk to Behan's
Irish Pub). The amusement permit will be reviewed again in 7une, 1997.
Staff Comments: The Chief Building Inspector, City Engineer and Fire Matshal had no
comments on this project. Planning staff would note that the Police Dept. has had a limited
number of calls for service at this site but is concerned with the possible noise impact on the
adjacent residential apartment building. The Police Dept. was also concerned with how the
business operators would enforce the limited hours of use (daylight hours only) for the outdoor
seating area and enforce using the gate for emergency exit only.
Study Questions:
At their meeting on Apri128, 1997 the Planning Commission asked several questions regarding
this project (P.C. Minutes April 28, 1997). Public notices have been posted on the adjacent
commercial and residential properties. In a telephone conversation with the applicant, he noted
that the outdoor patio area will be available to customers only during daylight hours, so there will
no noise impacts on the apartment residents between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. The Commission also
asked how will an employee know that there are customers in the outdoor seating area who need
service. The applicant stated that the waitress will periodically monitor the patio azea and that the
business owner may install a camera to monitor the area. Space heaters will not be installed in
the outdoor seating area. There will be approximately 15 seats (two picnic tables) in this area.
It will not be used for overflow, special parties or events. The outdoor patio area will be used for
daylight enjoyment and be limited to daylight hours.

signs shall be installed as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department and date stamped
March 26, 1997; 2) that the 5'-0" easement adjacent to the building at 235 Park Road shall remain
accessible to the public for access across the premises to the public parking lot behind, and any
alteration of this condition will require a revision to the sign permit; and 3) that the project shall meet

Discussion on the motion: it was noted that this sign program appearerl to be consistent with others
in the area; it was noted looking at these widely spaced logos on the apron as individual signs is a
better approach since it discourages the applicant from putting lots of words on the apron which would
not look as good.

voted 5-0-2 (Cers. Mink and Wellford absent) to approve the motion. Appeal procedures to May 19.

Dear Ms. Monroe & Planning Commissioners

I am the owner of 1143/1145 Paloma at Broadway. This is a 5-unit residential apartment
building. I am strongly against any outdoor patio seating at 1327 Broadway. We have
had at least five complaints from tenants in the past 12 months from excess noise coming
from the said area next to our building. The police have been called by our tenants on all
instances. The noise is the worst during special parties such as Monday night football and
St. Patrick's just to name a few.
The approval of this permit would severely effect the peaceful liv:ng of the five tenants. I
would strongly urge the commission to not approve the said permit.
Sincerely,

1. Exp/ain why the proposed use at the proposed /ocation wi// not be detrimenta/ or injurious to
property or improvements in the vicinity or to pub/ic hea/th, safety, gene�a/ we/fare, or
convenience.
How will the proposed structure or use within the structure affect neighboring properties or structures on those
properties7 If neighboring properties will not be affected, state why. Think about traffic, noise, lighting, paving,
landscaping sunlight/shade, views from neighboring properties, ease of maintenance.
Why will the structure or use within the structure not affect the public's health, safety or general welfare7
Public health includes such things as sanitation (garbaqel, air quality, discharges into sewer and stormwater systems,
water supply safety, and things which have the potential to affect public health (i.e., underground storage tanks,
storape of chemicals, situations which encourape the spread of rodents, insects or communicable diseasesl.
Public safetv. How will the structure or use within the structure affect police or fire protectionl �II alarm systems
or sprinklers be installed? Could the structure or use within the structure create a nuisance or need for police services
(i.e., noise, unruly gatherings, loitering, traffic) or fire services (i.e., storage or use flammable or hazardous materials,
or potentially dangerous activities like welding, woodwork, engine removal).
Genera/ we/fare is a catch-all phrase meaning community good. Is the proposal consistent with the city's policy and
goals for conservation and development? Is there a social benefit7
�onvenience. How would the proposed structure or use affect public convenience (such as access to or parking for
this site or adjacent sitesll Is the proposal accessible to particular segments of the public such as the elderly or
handicapped?
2. How wi// the proposed use be /ocated and conducted in accordance with the Bur/ingame Genera/
P/an and Zoning Ordinance7
Ask the Planninp Department for the general plan designation and zoning district for the proposed project site. Also
ask for an explanation of each. Once you have this information, you can compare your proposal with the stated
designated use and zoning, then explain why this proposal would "fiY accordingly.
3. How wi// the proposed project be compatib/e with the aesthetics, mass, bu/k and character of the
existing neighborhood and potentia/ uses on adjoining properties in the genera/ vicinityT
How does the proposed structure or use compare aesthetically with existing neighborhood7 If it does not affect
aesthetics, state why. If chanpes to the structure are proposed, was the addition designed to match existing
architecture, pattern of development on adjacent properties in the neighborhood7 If a use will affect the way a
neighborhood or area looks, such as a long term airport parking lot, compare your proposal to other uses in the area
and exp(ain why it "fits".
How does the proposed structure compare to neighboring structures in terms of mass or bulk? If there is no change
to structure, say so. If a new structure is proposed, compare its size, appearance, orientation etc. with other
structures in the neighborhood or area.
How will the structure or use within the structure chanpe the character of the neighborhoodl Think of character as
the image or tone established by size, density of development and general pattern of land use. Will there be more
traffic or less parking available resulting from this use7 If you don't feel the character of the neighborhood will change,
state why.
How will the proposed project be compatible with existin� and potential uses in the �eneral vicinity? Compare your
project with existinp uses. State why you feel your project is consistent with other uses in the vicinity, and/or state
why your project would be consistent with potential uses in the vicinity.

a. Describe the exceptiona/ or extraordinary circumstances or conditions app/icab/e to your
property which do not app/y to other properties in this area.
Do any conditions exist on the site which make other the alternatives to the variance impracticable or
impossible and are also not common to other properties in the areal For example, is there a creek cuttinp
throuph the property, an exceptional tree specimen, steep terrain, odd lot shape or unusual placement af
existiny structures7 How is this property different from others in the neighborhoodl
b. Exp/ain why the variance request is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantia/ property right and what unreasonab/e property /oss or unnecessary hardship
might resu/t from the denia/ of the app/ication.
Would you be unable to build a project similar to others in the area or neighborhood without the exceptionl
(i.e., havin� as much on-site parkin� or bedroomst) Would you be unable to develop the site for the uses
allowed without the exception7 Do the requirements of the law place an unreasonable limitation or hardship
on the development of the property7
c. Exp/ain why the proposed use at the proposed /ocation wi// not be detrimenta/ or injurious
to property or improvements in the vicinity or to pub/ic hea/th, safety, genera/ we/fare, or-
convenience.
How will the proposed structure or use within the structure affect neighboring properties or structures on those
propertiesl If neighboring properties will not be affected, state why. Think about traffic, noise, liphting,
pavinp, landscaping sunlight/shade, views from neighboring properties, ease of maintenance. Why will the
structure or use within the structure not affect the public's health, safety or peneral welfare7
Public health includes such things as sanitation (garbage), air quality, discharges into sewer and stormwater
systems, water supply safety, and things which have the potential to affect public health (i.e., underpround
storage tanks, storage of chemicals, situations which encourage the spread of rodents, insects or
communicable diseases).
Public safetv. How will the structure or use within the structure affect police or fire protection? Will alarm
systems or sprinklers be installed7 Could the structure or use within the structure create a nuisance or need
for police services (i.e., noise, unruly gatherings, loitering, traffic) or fire services (i.e., storage or use
flammable or hazardous materials, or potentially dangerous activities like welding, woodwork, engine removal►.
�eneral we/fare is a catch-all phrase meaninp community good. Is the proposal consistent with the city's
policy and goals for conservation and development? Is there a social benefit7
Convenience. How would the proposed structure or use affect public convenience (such as access to or
parking for this site or adjacent sites)1 Is the proposal accessible to particular segments of the public such as
the elderly or handicapped7
d. How wi// the proposed project be compatib/e with the aesthetics, mass, bu/k and character
of the existing and potentia/ uses on adjoining pioperties in the genera/ vicinityT
How does the proposed structure or use compare aesthetically with existing neighborhoodt If it does not
affect aesthetics, state why. If changes to the structure are proposed, was the addition designed to match
existinp architecture or pattern of development on adjacent properties in the neighborhoodl If use will affect
the way a neighborhood/area looks, compare your proposal to other uses in the area and explain why it "fits".
How does the proposed structure compare to neighboring structures in terms of mass or bulkl If there is no
chanpe to structure, say so. If a new structure is proposed, compare its size, appearance, orientation etc. with
other structures in the neighborhood or area.
How will the structure or use within the structure change the character of the neighborhoodl Think of
character as the image or tone established by size, density of development and general pattern of land use.
Will there be more traffic or less parking available resulting from this use7 If you don't feel the character of
the neighborhood will change, state why.
How will the proposed project be compatible with existing and potential uses in the peneral vicinityl Compare
your project with existing uses. State why you feel your project is consistent with other uses in the vicinity,
and/or state why your project would be consistent with potential uses in the vicinity. ,sres�...r,,,,
