Design Review for a First and Second Story Addition
Item # �
Action Calendar
Address: 1141 Bernal Avenue Meeting Date: 9/12/OS
Request: Design review for a first and second story addition at 1141 Bernal Avenue, zoned R-1 (C.S. 25.28.040)
Applicant and Property Owner: Remy Sijbrant
Architect: Young and Borlik APN: 026-183-050
General Plan Designation: Low Density Residential Lot Area: 6,000 SF
Date Submitted: May 25, 2005 Zoning: R-1
CEQA Status: Article 19. Categorically Exempt per Section: 15301 Class 1-(e) additions to existing structures
provided the addition will not result in an increase of more than 50% of the floor area of the structures before the
addition.
Summary: The applicant is requesting design review for a first and second story addition at 1141 Bernal Avenue,
zoned R-1. The existing house is two-stories with a one-car attached garage and totals 2,877 SF (0.47 FAR). The main
entrance is currently located on the first floor along with the attached garage, study, recreation room, and one bedroom.
The second floor contains the living room, dining room, family room , kitchen and a bedroom.
The proposed addition includes a major reconfiguration of the existing floor plan. The existing attached one car garage
and first floor entry will be removed and a new entry is proposed along the left side of the house. The new entry is
considered two stories with a 12 foot plate height ,which requires design review. The new entry is 63 SF and will be
located at a level that is between the first and second floors. There will be four bedrooms, all will be relocated to the first
floor. Two cantilevered fireplace alcoves are also proposed on the second floor along the right elevation. Windows on
all elevations will be removed and replaced, many in new locations. The existing dormers in the middle of the side
elevations will be removed. The exterior materials will be changing to cultured stone and stucco.
A new detached garage is also proposed with this project. The new garage will be 438 SF and will be located in the rear
30% of the lot, and is therefore exempt from setbacks. The remodeled house will have four bedrooms which requires one
covered that is provided in the new detached garage, and one uncovered parking space provided in the driveway.
Although the garage has a two car 20 foot wide by 20 foot deep interior dimension, the inside space (on the left) does not
have the 24 foot back up space required to be considered a code complying covered parking space. Therefore, the new
garage is only counted as providing one covered parking space.
The addition and new garage will increase the total floor area of the house to 3,363 SF (0.56 FAR), where 3,420 SF (0.57
FAR) is the maximum allowed. The proposal is 57 SF below the maximum floor area allowed on this lot.
The applicant is requesting the following:
• Design Review for a first and second floor addition.

This project meets all code requirements.
Staff Comments: Building permit number 2021937 was issued on May 19, 2003 for an addition and remodel at 1141
Bernal Avenue. The project included a second story addition of a break fast nook that was 97 SF. The earlier project
was not subject to design review because of a Planning Commission policy which exempts second story additions that
meet the following criteria: 1) enclosed roof area is 100 SF or less; 2) roof addition's pitch matches the existing roof pitch;
and 3) height of the roof addition is not higher than the highest ridge of the existing roof. Work under the building permit
was started but never completed. Some inspections were signed off on, however the work was not finished and the permit
expired. The property has changed ownership since the issuance of building permit number 2021937.
The new owner purchased the property in this unfinished state without a building permit. He is proposing to make the
proposed changes to the house. Design review is required for this new application because the plate height of the
proposed addition is greater than 9 feet. The Building Department allows renewal of permits only when the scope of work
is the same. So following Planning Commission approval the applicant will apply for a new building permit. There is
currently no construction work going on at this site.
July 11, 2005 Design Review Study Meeting: At the July 11, 2005, design review study meeting the Planning
Commission voted to send this project to a design review consultant. The Planning Commission identified the
following concerns with the project. The applicant met with the design reviewer and discussed these issues. The
applicant submitted revised plans date stamped August 1, 2005, in response to the Planning Commission's
comments. The Planning Commission comments from the July 11, 2005 design review study meeting are listed
below, with a summary of the changes made on the August 11, 2005 plans to address each in italics below.
Concerned with the size of the chimneys, they are too large, reduce size of chimneys and incorporate them
better into the design of the house, cantilevered chimneys look odd; if a gas insert is proposed chimneys do
not need to be this large;
2
Design Review
1141 Bernal Avenue
Both of the chimneys on the north elevation have been reduced in size and are more in scale with the house.
The architect explored bringing the chimneys down to the ground rather than having them cantilevered,
however it was not possible to relocate the existing windows below the chimneys because these are
bedrooms.
• Show details of proposed window trim and window style, should be consistent throughout house;
• Window treatment on the south elevation lacks coordination, for example there is a large horizontal
rectangular window proposed and all others are more vertical;
• Window trim on front elevation appears to be thicker than window trim on the side and rear elevations,
window trim and window style needs to be consistent throughout the house;
• Clarify mullions on first floor window located on the front elevation at the right side of the house, what do
the white lines represent, this may be an error on the plans, not consistent with other windows;
Mullions have eliminated from the front windows, so that all window styles are consistent. Trim has been
added to all of the windows. The design reviewer notes in his analysis that there are two sill details, one
pre-cast and the other wood. But he feels that this is OK to have the pre-cast at the front and entry side of
the house and use wood elsewhere since the overwhelming detailing of the windows is the same.
• Greenhouse window in kitchen needs to be integrated better into the design, do not want to see a metal pre-
fabricated greenhouse window tacked on to the side of the house;
The greenhouse kitchen window on the south elevation has been revised to a Pella box bay window to match
all of the new windows.
• Balcony, pedestrian gate and driveway gate proposed to be iron, there is too much iron proposed at the front
of the house, consider reducing the amount of iron work proposed at the front, possible eliminate the front
gate; considered a different treatment for the second floor deck at the front of the house;
• Concerned with placement of gate on stairs, please verify compliance with the building code, location of
gates varies on plans, please clarify locations on site plan;
The front entry gate has been eliminated from the plan. The three small windows with cross grilles on the
new entry, south elevation, have been eliminated. The metal detailing on the front of the house has been
reduced. The railings and detailing are now more consistent throughout, with both the front rear railings
revised to have posts with detailing rather just metal railings.
Concerned with the wall sconces proposed on the second floor on the front elevation, light should be
directed downward, do not want to see wall or facade floodlit;
The wall sconces on the second floor front elevation have been eliminated. Recessed lighting has been
included in the trellis over the dining room doors on the front elevation. Sheet ME2.2 of the revised plans
note that light will be kept entirely within the property lines. Wall sconces are proposed at the rear deck.
The plans note that the units will be shielded so that light is contained entirely on the property and does not
project beyond the property line.
Staircase at the rear of the house requires pickets along railing, please show on plans;
Plans have been revised to show pickets on the rear staircase, sheet A3.2.
3
Design Review 1141 Bernal Avenue
• Consider incorporating a solid railing design for the proposed second floor deck at the rear of the house, this
deck is located at the interior of the lot off the family room, but the solid railing would help to block the
view of the deck by the neighbors;
The rear balcony railing has been changed to add more solid portions (posts), with the open metal railing
portion reduced.
Would like to see large scale, evergreen plant materials/trees at the rear of the lot; also would like to see
landscaping to the north of the deck at the rear to provide screening for the neighbors at 1143 Bernal
Avenue.
Three new 24 inch box Geijera Paraviflora trees have been added at 9 inches on center along the rear
property line to added screening. There have also been 4 new 24 inch box Tristania Laurina added
along the north side property line to provide screening for the second floor deck.
Design Reviewer's Comments and Conclusion (memo dated August 8, 2005): The design reviewer's August 8
2005 memo is attached. The design reviewer notes that the massing and bulk of the structure are not being
significantly changed except for the new entry which seems like an appropriate addition and uses space at the side
yard efficiently. The new entry also allows a more efficient and usable floor plan on this long narrow house and
creates better use of the available square footage with better orientation of roorns. The new detached garage takes
the garage door off of the fa�ade of this house and will be more compatible with the rear parking pattern that exists
throughout the neighborhood.
In the summary section of the report the design review asked the architect to consider three additional changes: 1)
draw the box bay more accurately to reflect the thicker sides and base typical of the unit; 2) carefully select exterior
lighting to be shielded; and 3) consider adding screening planting. Presently the revised plans do note that the
greenhouse window on the south elevation has been revised to a Pella box bay window, the lighting on the revised
plan notes that all lights will be shielded to not extend beyond the property line, and the additional landscaping for
screening has been added on the site plans as noted above. The design reviewer notes that new window details and
trim have been added to the plans, with two sill details shown, one pre-cast at the front and entry side of the house
and the other wood elsewhere. However, he feels that this is OK because the overwhelming detailing of the
windows is the same. He notes that the mullions have been eliminated in favor of all casements, with all windows
compatible and similar. In summary the design reviewer recommends approval of the revised plans.
Design Review Criteria: The criteria for design review as established in Ordinance No. 1591 adopted by the
Council on Apri120, 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;
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.

I have visited the site, the street and the surrounding neighborhood and reviewed the initial
plans. I have had one meeting with the architect and applicant to review the Planning
Commission comments and have reviewed the revised design documents, stamped "Received
Aug. 1, 2005.° The design has been modified per our meeting discussion and has responded
well to the Commission's concerns.
1. Compatibilitv of the architectural stvle with that of the existing neiQhborhood�
• The neighborhood and street are a collection of eclectic styles.
• The house massing and scale are not being changed, however new materials, new
windows and details are being changed to stone, stucco and metal railings. This will
replace the current dilapidated conditions and will improve the neighborhood appearance
by removing an eyesore.
� The style is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood.
2. Resqect the Parkinq and GaraQe Pattems in the Neiahborhood�
• The existing attached garage is being replaced with a new 2 car free standing garage at
the rear of the property. The parking pattem in this neighborhood is a mix of front and
rear garages. This proposal will remove a garage door at the front of the house and
replace it with a new attractive wall and windows.
• The new design provides additional parking although more driveway paving, but is
compatible with the rear parking pattem that exists throughout the neighborhood.
3. Architectural Stvle. Mass and Bulk of the Structure and Intemal Consistencv of the Desian
• The massing and bulk of the structure are not being significantly changed except for the
new entry feature. The new entry seems like an appropriate addition and uses available
space at the side yard.
• The new side entry allows a more efficient and usable floor plan on this long narrow
house, reduces intemal circulation space and eliminates long hallways.
• The rearrangement of the floor plan allows much better use of the available square
footage and better orientation of the rooms.
• The unusual �eversed floor plan of bedrooms on the lower level with living on the upper
floor of the house repeats the existing layout. This allows nicer spaces on the upper
living areas although vertically separating this living space from the rear yard. The
existing deck will be retained and improved.

The revised plans have responded well the Commission's comments and suggestions of
the Design Review, and are listed as follows:
o The chimneys have been revised to be much smaller and more in scale with the
house. It was not possible to relocate lower windows, and one of these is
existing, so these projections are still cantilevered.
o New details of the windows and trim have been added. All window styles are
consistent and the greenhouse window has been replaced by a compatible wood
box bay window to match the other window types and styles. There are two
details for the sills, one pre-cast and the other wood. I feel that this is OK to
express the pre-cast at the front and entry side of the house and use wood
elsewhere, since the overwhelming detailing of the windows is the same.
o Mullions on the windows have been eliminated in favor of all glass casements. All
windows are compatible and similar.
o Front entry gate has been eliminated. Cross grilles on windows have been
eliminated as well as the small windows at the entry feature. Metal at the front of
the house has been reduced. Railings and detailing are more consistent
throughout.
o Wall sconces at front of house have been eliminated.
o The entry roof at front door has been redesigned, and small trellis elements have
been added above the front windows to match the entry door roof. This softens
the fa�ade and better coordinates the design.
o The rear balcony railing has been changed to add more solid portions, with the
open metal railing portion reduced. Pickets are now shown on the rear stair.
o A new wine cellar and storage space has been added under the deck to avoid a
dark unused underfloor area—this improves the appearance of the rear elevation.
4 Interface of the Proposed Structure with the Adiacent Structures to Each Side:
There is no significant change to the massing proposed from the existing conditions.
The new entry location and entry enclosure feature as well as the new rear garage will
have some effect on the neighbors, but is not in my opinion a major change and is within
the zoning requirements.
I believe the proposal interfaces appropriately with the neighboring structures. It is
noted that both neighboring structures set back more than the minimum setbacks
required.
5 Landscapinct and Its Proportion to the Mass and Bulk of Structural Comaonents:
• Landscaping changes were not noted on the revised plans. I would suggest considering
the suggestions for additional screening planting.

Recommend approval of the revised submitted plans.
Please correct and/or consider the following additional comments before building department
submittal:
1. Draw the box bay more accurately to reflect the thicker sides and base typical of this
type of unit.
2. Careful with selecting outdoor fixtures. Indirect up/down shielded fixtures or down
lights will be much better than the suggested hanging chandelier fixture at the entry.
Similar comment on deck lights—consider recessing lights in the solid portion of the
balcony railing shining down.
3. Consider the screen planting mentioned.

CATHERINE BARBER
CP Monroe briefly presented the project description. There were no questions of staff.
Chair Auran opened the public comment. Remy Sijbrant, applicant and property owner, was available to
answer questions. Commission noted that the proposed project will make the existing house look better and
that they understand the difficulty with improving this house in its current condition. Corrunission expressed
a concern about the comment submitted by a neighbor regarding employees of the applicants' construction
business being dispersed from this site; CA noted that a condition can be added for the action meeting to
prohibit dispersing of employees from this site and to prohibit construction material staging for other
construction projects at this site. Commissioners had the following comments regarding the project:
• Concerned with the size of the chimneys, they are too large, reduce size of chimneys and incorporate
them better into the design of the house, cantilevered chimneys look odd; if a gas insert is proposed
chimneys do not need to be this large;

City of Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes
July 11, 2005
C. Vistica noted that several changes were suggested which will require a fair amount of coordination
throughout the design and made a motion to send this proj ect to a design reviewer with the comments made.
This motion was seconded by C. Deal.
Comment on motion: feel that most of the comments can be addressed by the architect, not asking them to
make significant design changes, neighbors would like to see this project completed quickly, feel that
changes can be made without a design review consultant. Concensus was that going to a design reviewer
should not take much longer than the applicant making revisions and corrections with staff.
Chair Auran called for a vote on the motion to refer this item to a design reviewer with the direction given.
The motion passed on a voice vote 5-0-2 (Cers. Cauchi and Osterling absent). The Planning Commission's
action is advisory and not appealable. This item concluded at 11:20 p.m.

Chair Auran opened the public hearing. Remy Sijbrant, applicant and property owner, represented the
proj ect but had no comments. Commission commented: changes have done a lot to improve the design; only
a four bedroom house, do not need to have a 2 car garage, could have a larger backyard; sheet A3.1 shows a
structure on the ground? Applicant responded there is a wall there on the left side. Wall not shown on
landscape plan; plans are greatly improved. There were no further comments and the public hearing was
closed.
C. Brownrigg moved to approve the application, by resolution, with the following conditions: 1) that the
project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department date stamped August 1,
2005 sheets A0.1 through A5.1 and ME2.1, ME2.2, site plan, floor plans, building elevations, landscape plan
(on site plan) and mechanical and electrical plan; 2) that any changes to the size or envelope of the
basement, first or second floors, or garage, which would include adding or enlarging a dormer(s), moving or
changing windows and architectural features or changing the roof height or pitch, shall be subject to
Planning Commission review; 3) that the conditions of the Recycling Specialist, City Engineer, Chief
Building Official, NPDES Coordinator and Fire Marshal's memos dated June 23, 2005 shall be met; 4) that
prior to scheduling the roof deck inspection, a licensed surveyor shall shoot the height of the roof ridge and
provide to the Building Department certification of that height documenting that it is the same or less than
the maximum height shown on the plans; 5) that prior to scheduling the framing inspection, the project
architect, engineer or other licensed professional shall provide architectural certification that the architectural
details such as window locations and bays are built as shown on the approved plans; if there is no licensed
professional involved in the project, the property owner or contractor shall provide the certification under
penalty of perjury. Certifications shall be submitted to the Building Department; 6) that prior to final
inspection, Planning Department staff will inspect and note compliance of the architectural details (trim
materials, window type, etc.) to verify that the project has been built according to the approved Planning and
Building plans; 7) that the applicant shall comply with Ordinance 1503, the City of Burlingame Storm
Water Management and Discharge Control Ordinance; 8) that all air ducts, plumbing vents, and flues shall
be combined, where possible, to a single termination and installed on the portions of the roof not visible
from the street; and that these venting details shall be included and approved in the construction plans before
a Building permit is issued; and 9) that the proj ect shall meet all the requirements of the California Building
and Fire Codes, 2001 edition, as amended by the City of Burlingame. The motion was seconded by C.
Osterling.
Comment on the motion: the staff report should confirm that the location of the wall is to be shown on all
appropriate elevations of the plans. It's nice to have bigger back yards, but it's also nice to have two-car
garages, however often garages axe used for storage.
