Commercial Design Review
Address: 1117 Burlingame Avenue
Item No. 8f
Regular Action Item
Meeting Date: July 9, 2018
Request: Application for Commercial Design Review for changes to the front fa�ade of an existing
commercial storefront.
Applicant: Ron Stanford APN: 029-211-260
Architect: Jeffrey J. Burriss
Property Owner: Olive Grove Capital LP Lot Area: 15,400 SF
General Plan: Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan: Burlingame Avenue Commercial District Zoning: BAC
Current Use: Vacant, previously Aida Opera Candy (retail use)
Proposed Use: Tuna Kahuna (ready-to-eat food shop, considered a retail use)
Allowable Use: Ready-to-eat food shop (considered a retail use) is permitted.
Environmental Review Status: The project is Categorically Exempt from review pursuant to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Section 15301 - Existing facilities, Class 1(a) of the CEQA
Guidelines, which states that interior or exterior alterations involving such things as interior partitions,
plumbing, and electrical conveyances are exempt from environmental review.
Summary: The applicant is proposing to replace an existing vacant retail space, previously Aida Opera
Candy, with a new ready-to-eat food shop, Tuna Kahuna, at 1117 Burlingame Avenue, zoned BAC. Tuna
Kahuna meets the operating criteria of a ready-to-eat food shop, which is considered to be a general retail
use and therefore allowed as a permitted use in the BAC District (no Conditional Use Permit required for
this type of food establishment). Operating criteria include 1) sells food that is ready to eat at the time of
sale, 2) does not contain a full commercial kitchen, 3) contains no more than 150 SF of seating area, and 4)
contains no more than 1,000 SF of gross floor area.
This application includes changes to the exterior facade of the commercial storefront along Burlingame
Avenue, which measures 14'-1" in width. At the front of the building, the existing recessed angled entry,
canvas awning, and frameless glass storefront system will be removed. The existing stucco and horizontal
decorative bands will remain. There are no changes proposed at the rear of the building.
The proposed front elevation consists of a new aluminum and glass storefront system, including a smaller
recessed entry, aluminum and glass entry door, a horizontal bifold window and frosted glass below. Above
the new storefront, the applicant is proposing a new wood and steel horizontal awning.
Retail uses located on the first floor within the parking sector of the Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan
shall be exempt from providing off-street parking (CS 25.70.090 (a)). With this application, there is no
intensification of uses proposed on the ground level. Therefore, no additional off-street parking is required
for the proposed retail business. The following application is required:
■ Commercial Design Review for changes to the front fa�ade of an existing commercial storefront in
the BAC Zoning District (CS 25.32.045).
Staff comments: None.
Commercial Design Review 1117 Burlingame Avenue
Design Review Study Meeting: At the Planning Commission design review study meeting on June 11,
2018, the Commission discussed the proposed project and voted to place this item on the regular action
calendar when all of the required information has been submitted (see the attached June 11, 2018,
Planning Commission Minutes).
Please refer to the attached applicant's response letter, dated June 19, 2018, and revised plans, date
stamped June 20, 2018, for a detailed summary of changes made to the project since the design review
study meeting.
Design Review Criteria: The criteria for Commercial Design Review as established in Ordinance No. 1652
adopted by the Council on April 16, 2001 are outlined as follows:
1. Support of the pattern of diverse architectural styles that characterize the city's commercial areas;
2. Respect and promotion of pedestrian activity by placement of buildings to maximize commercial use
of the street frontage, off-street public spaces, and by locating parking so that it does not dominate
street frontages;
3. On visually prominent and gateway sites, whether the design fits the site and is compatible with the
surrounding development;
4. Compatibility of the architecture with the mass, bulk, scale, and existing materials of existing
development and compatibility with transitions where changes in land use occur nearby;
5. Architectural design consistency by using a single architectural style on the site that is consistent
among primary elements of the structure, restores or retains existing or significant original
architectural features, and is compatible in mass and bulk with other structure in the immediate area;
and
6. Provision of site features such as fencing, landscaping, and pedestrian circulation that enriches the
existing opportunities of the commercial neighborhood.
Suggested Findings for Design Review: That the new aluminum framed storefront window and door
system, rectangular recessed entry, stucco siding, and wood and steel horizontal awning is consistent with
the pattern of diverse architectural styles that characterize the city's commercial areas; that the proposed
storefront promotes pedestrian activity by allowing views directly into the business; that the proposed
storefront improvements are consistent with the architectural style and mass and bulk with other structures
by using stucco siding and an aluminum and glass storefront system on the ground floor, 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
June 20, 2018, sheets 0.1, 0.2, A2.1 and A4.1;
2. that any changes to the size or envelope of the building, which would include changing or adding
exterior walls or parapet walls, shall require an amendment to this permit;
2

Management and Discharge Control Ordinance;
8. that the project shall meet all the requirements of the California Building and Uniform Fire Codes,

All Commissioners had visited the subject property. There were no ex-parte communications to report.
Community Development Director Meeker provided an overview of the staff report.
Questions of Staff.�
There were no questions of staff..
Chair Gaul opened the public hearing.
Ron Stanford represented the applicant.
Commission Questions/Comments:
> Will the sidewalk tab/es be removable? (Meeker. would need to be removable.)
> Feels like a walk-up window is being installed. If the furniture is present with the window open, could
be a nice feel.
> The awning that is proposed seems to fit with the proposed use, but doesn't want the design to make
the space feel like a fast-foot restaurant. (Stanford: could detail the rendering better.)
> Asked about the frosted g/ass on the lower portion of the facade. (Stanford: wanted to maintain an
all-glass appearance, but provide frosted glass on the lower portion to maintain privacy.) Perhaps could
install Ipe wood as an alternative. (Stanford: could look at this, but cost is a concern.)
> Requested information regarding the Ipe materials used on the canopy; not a roof. (Stanford: is
provided only for shade, not protection from rain, though this could be a good idea.)
> Why is there a screen on the window? (Stanford: thought it is required by the Health Department; if
can get away without it, will remove it.)
> Having trouble with some of the proportions. Requested clarification of dimensions. Seems like that
dimension to the bottom of the window is too short to work with tables.
> The front elevation gives the impression that there are three horizontal slats. Gives a false
impression. Raising the base may help with the proportions of the windows.
> Having difficulty understanding the vertical wood elements on eave. Need to clarify dimensions and
provide greater detailing.
> Not clear how the proposed canopy relates to the adjacent awning.
> Requested clarification regarding how foot is prepared. (Stanford: there is an array of foods that are
available, then the customer picks the elements and builds a bowl.)
Public Comments:
There were no public comments.

Chair Gaul closed the public hearing.
Commission Discussion:
> Likes the design; wouldn't want the design to address the canvas awning to the left. Would prefer
removal of the screen, if possible.
> Seems like there is a lot going on in such a small facade. Need to simplify a bit.
> Worried that the thin slats on top of the c-channel will look cheap. the entire assembly of the canopy
seems insubstantial, unresolved. Doesn't like the flourish on top of the canopy.
> Agrees that there are things to like about the application; the use could be a good use to add to
Burlingame Avenue. Detailing needs to be refined. Facade could be detailed better by working the Ipe
wood into more of the facade detailing.
Commissioner Terrones made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Kelly, to the item on the

and the motion carried by the following vote:

Subject: 1117 Burlingame Avenue storefront facade changes
Dear Planning Commissioners:
'Just a quick note to express my disappointment with the storefront design for the former Aida's
chocolate space at 1117 Burlingame Avenue. It is a real jewel of a space and every inch of the front
should show that off.
The small mock-up rendering does not seem to match the line drawings. Even if they were one in the
same, the design just isn't up to par with what is being done to date on Burlingame Avenue. Without
exception, every new storefront design that you've reviewed and that which has been built for the past
several years has not only followed the DSAP commercial design guidelines, but paid very close
attention to correct proportions and good materials. Since the streetscape improvements were
completed, things have only gotten better.
This one needs work. Something about this one (at least the drawing) makes it appear like a cheap walk-
up stand. Please encourage the architect to walk (and understand) this special street and to be inspired.
Thanks for all you do.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Pfaff

Item No. 9c
Design Review Study
Meeting Date: June 11, 2018
Request: Application for Commercial Design Review for changes to the front fa�ade of an existing
commercial storefront.
Applicant: Ron Stanford APN: 029-211-260
Architect: Jeffrey J. Burriss
Property Owner: Olive Grove Capital LP Lot Area: 15,400 SF
General Plan: Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan: Burlingame Avenue Commercial District Zoning: BAC
Current Use: Vacant, previously Aida Opera Candy (retail use)
Proposed Use: Tuna Kahuna (ready-to-eat food shop, considered a retail use)
Allowable Use: Ready-to-eat food shop (considered a retail use) is permitted.
Summary: The applicant is proposing to replace an existing vacant retail space, previously Aida Opera
Candy, with a new ready-to-eat food shop, Tuna Kahuna, at 1117 Burlingame Avenue, zoned BAC. Tuna
Kahuna meets the operating criteria of a ready-to-eat food shop, which is considered to be a general retail
use and therefore allowed as a permitted use in the BAC District (no Conditional Use Permit required for
this type of food establishment). Operating criteria include 1) sells food that is ready to eat at the time of
sale, 2) does not contain a full commercial kitchen, 3) contains no more than 150 SF of seating area, and
4) contains no more than 1,000 SF of gross floor area.
This application includes changes to the exterior facade of the commercial storefront along Burlingame
Avenue, which measures 14'-1" in width. At the front of the building, the existing recessed angled entry,
canvas awning, and frameless glass storefront system will be removed. The existing stucco and horizontal
decorative bands will remain. There are no changes proposed at the rear of the building.
The proposed front elevation consists of a new aluminum and glass storefront system, including a smaller
recessed entry, aluminum and glass entry door, a horizontal bifold window and frosted glass below. Above
the new storefront, the applicant is proposing a new wood and steel horizontal awning.
Retail uses located on the first floor within the parking sector of the Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan
shall be exempt from providing off-street parking (CS 25.70.090 (a)). With this application, there is no
intensification of uses proposed on the ground level. Therefore, no additional off-street parking is required
for the proposed retail business. The following application is required:
■ Commercial Design Review for changes to the front fa�ade of an existing commercial storefront in
the BAC Zoning District (CS 25.32.045).
Staff comments: None.
Design Review Criteria: The criteria for Commercial Design Review as established in Ordinance No. 1652
adopted by the Council on April 16, 2001 are outlined as follows:
1. Support of the pattern of diverse architectural styles that characterize the city's commercial areas;
2. Respect and promotion of pedestrian activity by placement of buildings to maximize commercial use
of the street frontage, off-street public spaces, and by locating parking so that it does not dominate
street frontages;

3. On visually prominent and gateway sites, whether the design fits the site and is compatible with the
surrounding development;
4. Compatibility of the architecture with the mass, bulk, scale, and existing materials of existing �
development and compatibility with transitions where changes in land use occur nearby;
5. Architectural design consistency by using a single architectural style on the site that is consistent
among primary elements of the structure, restores or retains existing or significant original
architectural features, and is compatible in mass and bulk with other structure in the immediate area;
and
6. Provision of site features such as fencing, landscaping, and pedestrian circulation that enriches the
existing opportunities of the commercial neighborhood.
