Conditional Use Permit
Address: 620 Airport Boulevard
Item No. I Q
Consent Item
Meeting Date: August 22, 2011
Request: Conditional Use Permit to continue operation of an existing long term airport parking facility
(Code Section 25.47.025 (k)).
Property Owner : Boca Lake Office, Inc. APN: 026-342-330
Applicant and Architect: Paul Salisbury, Demattei Wong Architecture Zoning: AA (Anza Area)
General Plan: Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan: Lot Area: 3.70 acres
Hotels, Offices, Destination Restaurants and Selected Interim Uses
Adjacent Development: Offices and Hotels
Environmental Review Status: The project is Categorically Exempt from review pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Section 15301, which states that existing facilities,
consisting of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing or minor alteration of
existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment or topographical features, involving
negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency's determination are
exempt from environmental review.
Previous Use: Long-term Airport Parking
Proposed Use: Long-term Airport Parking
Allowable Use: Airport parking lots in the Anza area require a Conditional Use Permit limited to a 5-
year term.
History: The original application for this site in 2004 included a proposal to construction a new 600-room
hotel. While the environmental impact report was being prepared for the hotel, the applicant decided to
place the hotel project on hold, and instead apply for a long term airport parking interim use at this site. A
Conditional Use Permit to allow for a long-term airport parking interim use was approved by the City
Council on September 7, 2004 (September 7, 2004 City Council Minutes attached).
Summary: The applicant, representing Burlingame Airport Parking, is requesting a Conditional Use
Permit to continue operation of an existing long-term airport parking facility at 620 Airport Boulevard,
zoned AA. Burlingame Airport Parking has been in operation since 2006. A Conditional Use Permit is
required for an airport parking lot in the Anza Area, subject to the following criteria:
1. The sole purpose of the use is the parking for one day or longer of vehicles of persons using the
San Francisco International Airport;
2. A minimum site size of three acres;
3. Permit term limited to five years or less;
4. No more peak hour vehicle trips are generated than allowed by the traffic analyzer for the use
designated for the site in the general plan;
5. The Anza subarea design guidelines from the adopted Bayfront Specific Plan and Bay
Conservation and Development Commission public access requirements are met; and
6. No parking is within a structure above or below grade.
As noted above, the approved Conditional Use Permit for the site became effective on September 7, 2004
and the building permit for the site work was finaled on April 26, 2006. Conditional of approval No. 7 notes
"that this use permit for long term airport parking with the conditions listed herein is a temporary use and
shall expire on June 28, 2009 (5 years)". Planning staff only recently became aware that the Conditional
Use Permit had expired in June, 2009, and therefore notified the applicant that an application to continue
operation of the existing facility was required. The current application is a request to extend this use for
another five year period until September 1, 2016 (5 years from the effective date of approval).
Conditional Use Permit
620 Airport Boulevard
Currently, there are no plans to construction a new hotel on this site. Therefore, the applicant is proposing
to continue to provide long term airport parking at this site with a total of 350 parking spaces. The existing
operation includes surface-level parking for 350 parking spaces, as well as landscaping along the
perimeter of the site, entry gate, lighting, and drainage improvements. There is an opaque security fence
along the perimeter of the site so that views through the site are not obstructed. Exiting and pay booths
are located at the entrance to the parking and at the adjacent hotel site to the south.
The project as proposed complies with Items 1 through 6 above. The environmental analysis prepared for
the original approval in 2004 determined that the peak hour trips generated by this interim use will not
exceed that allowed by the traffic analyzer for the permitted use which is hotel and restaurant (Item #4).
There are no changes to the site or its operation at this time. The plans submitted with this application are
the same plans approved with the original application and comply with the Design Guidelines for Bayfront
Development in effect at that time:
■ 23.1% total site landscaping (15% required);
■ 96% landscaping of the 30' front setback (80% required);
■ 10% landscaping within parking area (10% required);
■ 54% landscaping within the 100' shoreline band (40% required);
■ 17% landscaping outside the 100' shoreline band (15% required).
The long-term airport parking facility is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Vehicular access to the
parking facility is from Airport Boulevard and egress is from the adjacent Hilton Hotel. Long-term parking
patrons access the parking lot in their vehicles at Airport Boulevard and pass through an entry gate,
consisting of an automated ticket dispenser with coordinated lift arm. Patrons then proceed into the
parking area to park theirvehicle. There are designated shuttle pick-up and drop-off areas within the long-
term parking lot to serve the long-term parking lot patrons. There are no changes proposed to the long-
term airport parking facility with this application.

Staff Comments: Planning staff would note that this application was brought directly to the Planning
Commission as a Consent Calendar Item because this use has been in operation since 2006 and there
are no change proposed to the current long-term airport parking facility. Planning staff would note that
Conditional Use Permits to extend the long-term airport parking use across the street at 615 Airport
Boulevard have been approved since 1971 for consecutive five year periods.
Findings for a Conditional Use Permit: In order to grant a Conditional Use Permit the Planning
Commission must find that the following conditions exist on the property (Code Section 25.52.020 a-c):
(a) the proposed use, at the proposed location, will not be detrimental or injurious to property or
improvements in the vicinity, and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, general
welfare, or convenience;
2
Conditional Use Permit 620 Airport Boulevard
(b) the proposed use will be located and conducted in a manner in accord with the Burlingame general
plan and the purposes of this title;
(c) the Planning Commission may impose such reasonable conditions or restrictions as it deems
necessary to secure the purposes of this title and to assure operation of the use in a manner
compatible with the aesthetics, mass, bulk and character of existing and potential uses on
adjoining properties in the general vicinity.
(d) removal of any trees located within the footprint of any new structure or addition is necessary
and is consistent with the city's reforestation requirements, and the mitigation for the removal
that is proposed.
Conditional Use Permit Findings: Based on the fact that the Conditional Use Permit is for an extension
of an existing long-term airport parking use which has been approved and in operation since 2006, that
there are no changes proposed to the operations of the facility and that the requirements of the previous
conditions of approval have been met, the proposed use is found to be compatible with the required
findings for a Conditional Use Permit.
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. The conditions below
incorporate the original conditions of approval (City Council, September 7, 2004) with a change to
condition No. 8 to reflect the 5-year expiration date. Conditions which have been satisfied by the

C-4 AND RESOLUTION No. 84-2004 TO AMEND THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR
THE SHERATON HOTEL AT 600 AIRPORT BOULEVARD, ZONED C-4
Vice Mayor Galligan absented himself from the meeting because of a conflict of interest. He stepped down
from the dais and left the chambers.
CP Monroe reviewed the staff report and recommended Council hold a public hearing and take action. She
noted that since the proposed long term airport parking use involved two parcels (620 and 600 Airport
Boulevard), there were two actions required: one to grant a conditional use permit for long term airport
parking at 620 Airport Boulevard and one to amend the conditional use permit for the hotel at 600 Airport
Boulevard to allow the long term airport parking to use their parking access pay booth and gate. Both uses
were conditional to require payment of the City's long term airport parking tax.
Mayor O'Mahony opened the public hearing. The following citizens spoke regarding this issue: Paul
Salisbury, Architect, 1555 Bayshore Highway; Jonathan Wu, President of Anza Corporation, 615 Airport
Boulevard. There were no further comments from the floor, and the hearing was closed.
Councilman Coffey made a motion to uphold the Planning Commission's action and approve Resolution No.

The Planning Commission is required by law to make findings as defined by the City's Ordinance (Code
Section 25.52.020). Your answers to the following questions can assist the Planning Commission in
making the decision as to whether the findings can be made for your request. Please type or write neatly
in ink. Refer to the back of this form for assistance with these questions.
1. Explain why the proposed use at the proposed location will not be detrimental or injurious to
property or improvements in the viciniry or to public health, safety, general welfare or
convenience.
The proposed use is identical to the use of the property across the street
and similar to other long term auto storage in the bayfront area. On this site,
however, the auto storage will be below grade and therefore less visible to the
public. The proposed use will improve an undeveloped piece of land where there
has frequently been standing water that these improvements will eliminate.
2.
3.
How will the proposed use be located and conducted in accordance with the Burlingame
General Plan and Zoning Ordinance?
The proposed use--long term airport parking--is an approved interim use in the
Burlingame Bayfront Specific Area Plan per Res. 24-90 dated 2/5/90.
How will the proposed project be compatible with the aesthetics, mass, bulk and character of
the existing and potential uses on adjoining properties in the general vicinity?
Because the proposed long term parking will be below grade, and the perimeter
screened, it will improve the aesthetics and character of the site and its impact
on existing and potential uses on adjoining properties in the general vicinity.
