All project entitlements have been granted by the City of Burlingame, pursuant to Title 25 of the Burlingame Municipal Code. On January 14, 2002, the Burlingame Planning Commission approved a conditional use permit for the operation of a full- service food establishment on the premises. On November 26, 2012 an application for Minor Design Review was approved by the Community Development Director for exterior improvements related to the operation of a new full-service food establishment at the location. 2. You have adequately demonstrated that special circumstances exist to warrant early demolition, in that: a. Demolition of the existing interior of the premises is warranted in an effort to reduce the potential for mold to occur as a result of a variety of roof leaks that exist in the building, and to prevent further damage to the structure of the building. You note that there is to be no demolition of the exterior of the Burlingame Avenue fa�ade of the structure, but that the concrete block "cooler" at the rear of the building will be demolished to provide a location for debris boxes and truck parking that will not interfere with public parking at the rear of the property. 3. An application for a Building Permit (Plan Check B12-0467) was submitted to the Community Development Department - Building Division on December 28, 2012. Initial Plan Check correction notes have been generated by most reviewing City departments.

Per Municipal Code Section 18.07.065 Section 303 Amended — Issuance: The project is Categorically Exempt from CEQA. With respect to Title 25 (Zoning Code) the project received Design review approval for the Burlingame Avenue fa�ade improvements. It has come to our attention that the new exit stairs from the second floor dining area (required by both the building division and fire division) will require minor in house design review. We would expect approval for these stairs in the near future. Special Circumstances: it is our desire to perform interior finishes demolition in order to prevent mold from occurring due to a variety of roof leaks that have taken place in the building. These leaks have damaged a variety of the interior finishes and removal would not only provide needed insight as to the condition of the substrate but prevent further damage from occurring. In addition, we should point out that no demolition of the Burlingame Avenue fa�ade items to be replaced would occur until the subsequent building permit is issued. We would, however, request that we be allowed to also demolish the concrete block "cooler" which occurs at the rear of the building as planned for the overall construction. The demolition of the "cooler" area will allow a location for debris boxes and some truck parking so as not to interfere with the parking area at the rear of the building. 3. Our office has prepared the necessary plans for the project for which the demolition is intended. 128 Pepper Avenue r Burfingame, California 94010-5235 r(650) 347-0757 Mr. William Meeker, Director City of Burlingame Community Development Department Re: 1448 Burlingame Avenue Demolition Permit Page 2 4. Our office has submitted the plans for the initial plan check for permit submittal to both the city building division and the county health department. We expect that our plan check comments should be ready sometime later this week or early next week. We believe that the issuance of an early demolition permit will not be detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of the general public and will ensure the safety, security and cleanliness of the property. It should also be emphasized that the vast majority of the demolition occurs within the building envelope. I trust the foregoing will meet with your approval. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions of concerns you may have. ly, EYER ASSOCIATES ael Nilrri�ver AIA c:_Mr. Joe Cyr�lChief Building Official
