Item No. 8b
Regular Action Item
Meeting Date: September 24, 2018
Request: Application for Design Review for a second story addition to an existing single family dwelling.
Applicant and Architect: Steven S. Lesley, Architect
Property Owners: Jason and Anya Sole
General Plan: Low Density Residential
APN: 026-263-150
Lot Area: 4,738 SF
Zoning: R-1
Environmental Review Status: The project is Categorically Exempt from review pursuant to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Section 15301 (e) (1) of the CEQA Guidelines, which states that
additions to existing structures are exempt from environmental review, provided the addition will not result in an
increase of more than 50% of the floor area of the structures before the addition.
Project Description: The subject property is a substandard lot measuring 46 feet wide and 4,738 SF in area.
The property contains a two-bedroom, two-story single family dwelling with an attached one car garage. The
existing house is non-conforming in lot coverage at 42.4% (2,014 SF) where 40% (1,895 SF) is the maximum
allowed.
The proposed project includes a 565 SF addition to the existing second floor. There are no changes proposed to
the first floor of the house. Code Section 25.50.080 (d) (3) allows single family structures that are non-
conforming in lot coverage only, to be expanded provided that the lot coverage is not increased and all other
district standards are met. With this application, the lot coverage is not being increased and the proposed
second story addition complies with the district standards. The total floor area would increase to 2,605 SF (0.54
FAR) where 2,616 SF (0.55 FAR) is the maximum allowed.
The existing house contains two bedrooms and would increase to three bedrooms which requires two off-street
parking spaces, one of which must be covered. There are currently two parking spaces on-site, one covered and
one uncovered. The uncovered parking space is non-conforming in depth because it measures15'-6" to the
inside edge of the sidewalk, where a 20' depth is required. However, although the number of bedrooms is
increasing, there is no change to the parking requirement and the non-conforming condition remains with no
variance required.
The applicant is requesting the following application:

Staff Comments: See attached memos from the Building, Parks, and Engineering,
Design Review Study Meeting, August 13, 2018: At the Planning Commission Design Review Study meeting
on August 13, 2018, the Commission had several comments and concerns with the project and referred the
application to a design review consultant (August 13, 2018 Planning Commission Minutes attached). The
following is a summary of the Planning Commission comments:
• Roof framing — how does new roof tie in with existing roof, too complicated;
• Windows — clarify materials of existing and proposed;
• Revisit window placement;
• Plate height on addition is too tall; and
• Plans need to be revised to capture existing charm of the house.
After working with the design review consultant, the project architect submitted revised plans, date stamped
August 29, 2018. Based on the revisions, the design review consultant feels that the project has been revised to
address the Planning Commission's comments and concerns. Please referto the attached meeting minutes for a
complete list of concerns expressed by the Planning Commission, along with the Design Reviewer's
recommendation.
Analysis and Recommendation by Design Reviewer: The design review consultant met with the architect to
review the proposal and go over the Planning Commission's comments from the August 13, 2018 Design Review
Study Meeting. The following is a summary of the major changes to the plans since the study meeting:
• Plate height reduced from 9' to 8'-1 ";
• New windows called out as wood with fiberglass cladding;
2
Design Review 212 Howard Avenue
� Roof framing revised/simplified — crickets removed, dormer added on front elevation;
• Two windows added on second floor, left side elevation;
� Belly band added to left side;
� Architectural details added to plans; and
• Decorative rainwater leaders and downspouts added.
The design review consultant notes that the plan revisions include enhancements to communicate the design
and details of both the existing house and the proposed addition. The proposed addition has been revised to
better integrate in with the existing split-level house including a reduced plate height. To enhance the "curb
appeal" a sloping roof extension and upper level dormer were added at the front of the house. The overall
massing has been addressed and integrated with a belly band added on the left side, along with additional
windows. Overall the design review consultant notes that many positive improvements have been made to
enhance and communicate the design and details addressing the Planning Commission's comments. The
design reviewer's analysis and recommendation, dated August 29, 2018, is attached for a detailed review of the
project.
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:
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;
4. Interface of the proposed structure with the structures on adjacent properties; and
5. Landscaping and its proportion to mass and bulk of structural components.
Suggested Findings for Design Review: The proposed project is an approximately 550 SF addition to an
existing split level house that is well integrated into the existing massing. The overall architectural style of the
existing home is retained and complimented with a small dormer at the front, fiberglass clad wood windows and
composition shingle roofing. The added details, such as decorative rain water leader boxes and downspouts,
eave trim, wood belly band and fiberglass clad wood windows, provide scale and visual interest to the house. For
these reasons the project may be found to be compatible with the requirements of the City's five design review
criteria.
Planning Commission Action: The Planning Commission should conduct a public hearing on the application,
and consider public testimony and the analysis contained within the staff report. Action should include specific
findings supporting the Planning Commission's decision, and should be affirmed by resolution of the Planning
Commission. The reasons for any action should be stated clearly for the record. At the public hearing the
following conditions should be considered:
that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Division date stamped
August 29, 2018, sheets A1 through A9;
2. that any changes to building materials, exterior finishes, windows, architectural features, roof height or
pitch, and amount or type of hardscape materials shall be subject to Planning Division or Planning
Commission review (FYI or amendment to be determined by Planning staf�;
3. that any changes to the size or envelope of the first or second floors, or garage, which would include
adding or enlarging a dormer(s), shall require an amendment to this permit;

Senior Planner Keylon provided an overview of the staff repo�t.
There were no questions of staff.
Chair Gaul opened the public hearing.
Steven Les/ey represented the applicant.
Commission Questions/Comments:
> Are the existing windows viny/ windows? Particularly the windows over the garage? (Those were
installed prior to buying the house.)
> Would the new windows match the existing? (Yes.)
> Why the vinyl windows? (To match existing.)
> Plans do not represent the detailing of the existing house properly. Missing brackets. Hopes the
addition will capture the same character.
> Should step up fhe quality of the windows on the addition, will be happier in the long run. Cost is not
significantly higher than a good quality vinyl window.
> Top /eft wall is lacking windows. Looks stark. (Could add a window in the shower.) Suggesf a low-e
window in the closet.
> Consider a lower plate heighf.
Public Comments:
There were no public comments.
Chair Gaul closed the public hearing.
Commission Discussion:
> Roof plan indicates a jumb/e. Hard to understand how the addition is organized.
> Not understanding the windows, but iYs based on the floor plan.
> Direction for DR consultant: plate heights, window se/ection and placement, capture existing character
and charm in addtion, simplifying the addition. Seems like from the back the addition is attacking the
house.

Response to Planning Commission Comments for the August 13, 2018 Study Session for:

Burlingame, CA 94010
1. Concern:
Roof framing & how it ties in with the existing roof - too complicated.
Response:
;.,<.-.
�.i���
: i „-, ^. n � �-
.. i i'�: �.7J . , _ .
The roof has been revised to blend the existing roof to the new 2nd floor roof by extending the
front gable up and adding a dormer to break up the new roof plane and still allow light into
the bathroom. The previous design extended the new wall up to a new roof that exposed the
face of the new wall peeking behind the existing roof, but this design makes the roof into one
unified whole, and by doing so makes the roof less complicated. Part of the problem of the
previous design was that from above you were looking at a split level2 story house with 3
layers of roof heights. This design simplifies the roof plan.
2. Concern:
Windows - existing & proposed vinyl.
Response:
The new windows are specified to be wood windows with a fiberglass cladding (except the
window in the shower is all fiberglass). We believe this is the best of both worlds in matching
the existing vinyl windows but offering the second preferred choice on the list of windows
from the planning commission. The revised plans include details of the existing window
elevation, sill and jamb. The existing windows are white vinyl with a brown wood trim. Only
5/8" of the white vinyl is exposed. We are proposing to paint the existing white vinyl windows
to match the trim and the new wood/fiberglass clad windows will be brown to match the new
and existing trim.
3. Concern:
Blank Space - not enough articulation, need to add windows on upper left side.
Response:
Two new windows were added on the upper left side elevation. One in the toilet closet and
one in the center of the walk in closet. A 2 x 12 trim board was added between the 1st & 2nd
floor to break up the blank wall. The rear wall was broken up by popping out the new 2nd
floor of bedroom 3 to cantilever 12" with corbels underneath which goes with the theme of
the front garage cantilever and corbels. Also, decorative box downspouts were placed to help
break up the blank walls and add articulation. This also helped in the front elevation. And
speaking of the new downspout in the front - the existing house has two separate roof eave
details: The front and part of the right side elevation has open exposed 2 x 4 rafter tails, but
the left side, rear and back portion of the right side has an ogee roof gutter over the rafter
tails. We are proposing to unify the appearance of the eave and add a matching ogee gutter in
the front and side to match and the entire house. We are replacing the old standard
downspouts with a decorative box type to add classic articulation. Roof gutters also serve the
purpose of reducing erosion to the soil below and keep rain runoff off of people walking under
the entry porch.
!
4. Concern:
Plate height on addition too tall.
Response:
The new 2nd floor addition has been reduced from 9' to 8'-1" to match the 1st floor plate
height.
5. Concern:
Plans need to be revised to capture existing charm.
Response:
The elevations have been revised to show the correct existing conditions of the open rafter
tails, corbels, garage door and window trim and carried to the proposed elevations.

Letter of Explanation for -
Proposed project for 212 Howard Avenue in Burlingame, California.
We are proposing to add a 572 square foot second story addition to an existing two story single family
residence. The project also proposes to remodel an existing bathroom & bedroom. The existing house has two
bedrooms and two bathrooms. The proposed second floor addition will add a master bedroom including a
bathroom and walk in closet. The completed residence will have three bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The total existing lot coverage remains the same as no proposed work is on the ground floor. The proposed
FAR of the project would be 2,616 square feet where 2,616 square feet is allowable for the 4,738 square feet
lot.
The existing house has a stucco exterior with an asphalt shingle roo£ The color of the existing stucco is an off-
white with brown trim. The existing asphalt shingle roof is a grey color. The proposed stucco and roof of the
addition will match the existing.
The residences on each side are two story designs as are many in the neighborhood. The neighborhood lots are
relatively flat so the proposed project will not impede anyone's views.
If you have any questions, please call me.
Sincerely,
Steven S. Lesley, Architect

Buriingame Planning Commission
Ref: 212 Howard Ave., Design Review
Dear Staff and Commissioners,
I have met with the applicant and staff cand have made a site visit to the house. The
applicant came to the meeting prepared with good ideas and new plans, and
receptive to suggestions. I have reviewed the revised design received today and
have prepared the final comments below. The Architect and Owners have worked
diligently to improve the design and respond to your comments and have made
many positive improvements. The drawings have been enhdnced to better
communicate the design and details. Please also see the dpplicant's response
letter.
1. The style of the house remains the same and retains the same charm and basic
materials. This style is compatible with the existing neighborhood.
• The "curb appeal" has been enhanced with c�ddition of a sloping roof
extension and upper level dormer.
• The detQils have been improved with new eave trim and gutter to be
consistent all around the house.
• Decorative rain water leader boxes and new downspouts have been added.
• New window details have been added to the plans. The new windows will be
fiberglass and wood inside, and the existing white vinyl window frames (which
are barely visible) wil! be painted brown to match the added trim.
2. The garage configuration is not changing and will remain as-is facing the street.
• The plans have been enhanced to show the nice existing garage wood door.
3. The prior complicated roof configuration has been simplified and infiegrated with
the lower level roof.
• The new sloped back roof and added dormer step back from the street and
meet the other roof hip at the rear.
• The elimination of the third hip at the rear of the garage and the tweaking of
room widths allow a straightforward composition of hips and valleys and
eliminate awkward crickets.
• New roof areas will hdve the same color and type of composition shingles as
the existing lower roofs to remain.

AkC�ilT�C'fS
4. The massing and blank 2 story wall planes have been improved.
• The second floor plate height has been reduced to 8' reducing the overall
height and mass.
• The floor plan dimensions have been changed to provide an overhang of the
second floor rear master bedroom to allow for the same overhang and
brackets as on the front garage/bedroom fa�ade. This breaks up the scale of
this wall and adds to the consistency of the design.
• 2 additionaf windows have been added to the left side second floor cat the
closet and bathroom.
• A belly band trim has been added to the left side.
• Addition of the eave, window and downspout details add charm and interest
to the elevations.
5. Landscaping remains the same.
In summary, the re-submittal is an excellent response to the Commission's comments
and a very nice improvement to the overall design.
I recornmend approval of the changes and compliment the owner and architect
with their flexibility and positive approach.

Address: 212 Howard Avenue
Item No. 9c
Design Review Study
Meeting Date: August 13, 2018
Request: Application for Design Review for a second story addition to an existing two-story single family
dwelling.
Applicant and Architect: Steve Lesley
Property Owners: Jason and Anya Sole
General Plan: Low Density Residential
APN: 026-263-150
Lot Area: 4,738 SF
Zoning: R-1
Project Description: The subject property is a substandard lot measuring 46 feet wide and 4,738 SF in area.
The property contains a two-bedroom, two-story single family dwelling with an attached one car garage. The
existing house is non-conforming in lot coverage at 42.4% (2,014 SF) where 40% (1,895 SF) is the maximum
allowed.
The proposed project includes a 570 SF addition to the existing second floor. There are currently two bedrooms
in the house and the proposed addition would add a third bedroom, full bathroom and walk-in closet. There are
no changes proposed to the first floor of the house. Code Section 25.50.080 (d) (3) allows single family
structures that are non-conforming in lot coverage only, to be expanded provided that the lot coverage is not
increased and all other district standards are met. The total floor area would increase to 2,609 SF (0.55 FAR)
where 2,616 SF (0.55 FAR) is the maximum allowed.
The existing house contains two bedrooms and would increase to three bedrooms which requires two off-street
parking spaces, one of which must be covered. There are currently two parking spaces on-site, one covered and
one uncovered. The uncovered parking space is non-conforming in depth because it measures15'-6" to the
inside edge of the sidewalk, where a 20' depth is required. However, although the number of bedrooms is
increasing, there is no change to the parking requirement and the non-conforming condition remains with no
variance required.
The applicant is requesting the following application:

Letter of Explanation for -
Proposed project for 212 Howard Avenue in Burlingame, California.
We are proposing to add a 572 square foot second story addition to an existing two story single family
residence. The project also proposes to remodel an existing bathroom & bedroom. The existing house has two
bedrooms and rivo bathrooms. The proposed second floor addition will add a master bedroom including a
bathroom and walk in closet. The completed residence will have three bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The total existing lot coverage remains the same as no proposed work is on the ground floor. The proposed
FAR of the project would be 2,616 square feet where 2,616 square feet is allowable for the 4,738 square feet
lot.
The existing house has a stucco exterior with an asphalt shingle roof. The color of the existing stucco is an off-
white with brown trim. The existing asphalt shingle roof is a grey color. The proposed stucco and roof of the
addition will match the existing.
The residences on each side are two story designs as are many in the neighborhood. The neighborhood lots are
relatively flat so the proposed project will not impede anyone's views.
If you have any questions, please call me.
Sincerely,
Steven S. Lesley, Architect
