Dear Mr. Sui:
Your request for a hillside area construction permit and a minor modification was reyiewed by property owners
within 100 feet, the Planning Commission and City Council. Since there was no appeal, a hillside area
construction permit and a minor modification to �xtend an existing first floor with a 5'-0" setback where 7'-0"
is required for a 1,240 SF first floor addition at 2629 Trousdale Drive, zoned R-1, was approved effective August
7, 2001. The proj ect shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department and date stamped
July 18, 2001. Any changes to these plans shall be subject to further minor modification procedures. The minor
modification was approved with the following findings:
that the original house was built with a 5'-0" side setback which does not meet current code requirements;
2. that the proposed addition with a 5'-0" side setback represents no greater an impact on the adjacent
property than the existing side setback (5'-0");
3. that proposed addition complies with lot coverage, floor area ratio, height and all other current
development requirements;
4. that the proposed first floor is at the rear of the house and will not be visible from the street, and is
therefore compatible with the aesthetics, mass, bulk and character of adjacent properties and the
neighborhood; and
the proposed project meets all other zoning code requirements and will meet the requirements of the
California Building and Fire Codes, 1998 Edition as amended by the City of Burlingame, and therefore
will not be detrimental to public health, safety or welfare.
