Director's Report
TO: Planning Commission Meeting Date: September 28, 2009
FROM: Ruben Hurin, Senior Planner
SUBJECT: FYI — REVIEW OF MINOR CHANGE TO EXISTING RECESSED ENTRY AT
1462 BURLINGAME AVENUE, ZONED C-1, BURLINGAME AVENUE
COMMERCIAL AREA, SUBAREA A
Summary: BevMo!, a retail wine store, will soon be replacing Talbots, a retail clothing store, at
1462 Burlingame Avenue, Zoned C-1, Burlingame Avenue Commercial Area, Subarea A. In
addition to remodeling the interior of the tenant space, BevMo! would like to make a minor
change to the existing recessed entry.
The existing storefront contains stucco siding, wood trim, large glass windows and two canvas
awnings. The existing front entry is recessed from the main faCade and contains two painted
wood and glass doors with sidelights adjacent to the doors (see existing floor plans and building
elevations, date stamped September 18, 2009). The applicant would like to eliminate the
recessed entry and replace the existing doors and sidelights with a new automatic sliding glass
door system in line with the existing building facade (see proposed floor plans and building
elevations, date stamped September 18, 2009). In his letter dated September 16, 2009, the
architect notes that "the goal of the BevMo! remodel is to improve visibility of the store from the
street and sidewalk" and "maximize the effect of their interior design scheme to attract
customers and to utilize the existing space to its utmost efficiency." In addition, the existing
canvas awnings would be replaced with one new canvas awning above the entry. Planning
staff would note that new or replacement awnings are exempt from design review when the
farade or building is not subject to design review.
Code Section 25.57.010 (c) notes that design review is required for any change to the front
fa�ade of a building located in Subarea A of the Burlingame Avenue Commercial Area.
However, because the proposed change is minor in nature, only includes changing the entry
and includes clear glass doors (which allows more visibility into the store), Planning staff
brought this request forward to you as an FYI item for review.
Other than the proposed changes described above, there are no other changes proposed to the
design of the storefront. If the Commission feels there is a need for more study, this item may
be placed on an action calendar for a second review and/or public hearing with direction to the
applicant.

VICE PRESIDENT, FINANCE
We are submitting this letter to briefly describe the scope of remocieling work to the exterior of
the building located at 1462 Burlingame Blvd., as part of the Tenant Improvement work
proposed by BevMo! The existing building farade along Burlingame Blvd. is presently beige
colored stucco with grey wood posts and trim that create 3 bays of openings. The middle bay
has a recessed entry double glass doors, with glass side lites actjacent to each door. The other 2
bays on either side of the storefront bay, has fixed storefront windows. There are presently
fabric awnings over the side storefront �Nindows.
The goal of the BevMo remodel is to improve the visibility of the store from the street and
sidewalk. They would like to maximize the effect of their interior design scheme to attract
customers, and to utilize the existing space to its utmost efficiency. To accomplish this, the
existing center bay entry doors and side lites are to be removed, with a new automatic opening
storefront entry system installed in the middle bay in line with the adjacent storefront windows.
A new canvas awning will be installed above the new storefront entry doors to accentuate and
protect the entry.
The existing storefront windows on either side of the entry are to remain. The fabric awnings
above the storefront windows are to be removed to uncover the existing decorative framework
above the windows, which would be cleaned and painted to match the existing color scheme.
The wood frames around the storefront windows and the stucco finish of the building will be
cleaned and painted to match the existing conditions.
Please find attached drawings of the proposed BevMo! store.
Sincerely,
Don Inaba `}—
Vice President
