1405 NORTH CAROLAN AVENUE, ZONED M-1 - APPLICATION FOR REAR SETBACK VARIANCE FOR
CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW CARPORT FOR A CONSTRUCTION OFFICE. (STEVE LESLEY, APPLICANT
AND ATLAS PLASTERING, PROPERTY OWNERI
CP Monroe briefly presented the staff report. The Planning Commissioners asked: why do they need a 20 foot tall
opening in the carport; at time of site inspection (1.10.00) applicant was pumping a liquid from a truck into the creek,
is this allowed; why was so much architectural embellishment put on this carport, seems a level of detail not necessary
unless it is advertisement for what this business does; project looks like a hanger, why is it so tall; the staff report indicates
that the carport will be the same height as the adjacent building to the north, however there is a wall there now that is 4
to 5 feet taller than that building, will the carport roof be placed on the existing wall; approval should include best
management practices for all activities on the site next to the creek; there appear to be a couple of catch basins on the
site which discharge into the creek, are there fossil filters in them, how are they inspected and when are they replaced;
the building appears to be 25 feet tall and the proposed facade not in keeping with the rest of the development on the site,
please address. The item was placed on the regular action calendar, for the January 24, 2000, meeting if all the
information is submitted to the Planning Department in time.

C. Deal noted that he had no conflict of interest with any project on this calendar. He did note that although his name
was on the drawings for 1516 Forest View he had no relationship with the applicant and had not received any money
from them.
C. Bojues moved approval of the consent calendar based on the facts in the staff reports, commissioners comments and
the findings in the staff reports with recommended conditions in the staff reports and by resolutions. The motion was
seconded by C. Vistica. Chairman Luzuriaga called for a voice vote on the motion and it passed 5-0-1 (C. Keighran
absent). Appeal procedures were advised.
REGULAR CALENDAR
149 PEPPER AVENUE, ZONED R-1- APPLICATION FOR SIDE SETBACK VARIANCE FOR A FIRST FLOOR
ADDITION AT THE REAR OF THE HOUSE (ANDREW & TRINA PASCAL, APPLICANTS AND PROPERTY
OWNERS� _
Reference staffreport, 01.10.00, with attachments. City Planner and Co�nmission discussed the report, reviewed criteria
and Planning Department comments. Three conditions were suggested for consideration. There were no questions from
the commission.
Chairman Luzuriaga opened the public hearing. Andrew Pascal, applicant, 149 Pepper Avenue, and Bernardo Urquieta,
architect, 2160 Lake Street, San Francisco were both present and available to answer questions. Commissioners asked;
why grant the variance, have a big (10,000 SF) lot, addition is out of character with the existing building. Architect asked
commissioner if he visited the site; yes, but was not inside the house. There are two issues that are important, one is that
there are certain rules established by the interior design of the house, main corridor ends in the family room and it is in
a specific place in the house, very little space on the lot from the family room to the neighbor; site design is difficult to
express in the drawings, want to have addition lower than the trees along the side; met with neighbor, she did not want
the impact of continuing the existing plane of the roof, wanted to have roof as low as possible, applicant designed a flat
metal roof to respect the neighbors concern; design is in response to existing conditions and neighbors concerns_ There
were no further comments from the public and the hearing was closed.
Commission comments: preserving the interior is important, not taking into consideration the exterior of the building,
level of detail shown on the plans inside the house is good, but concerned that the exterior is being ignored, addition has
an impact on the neighborhood, not just on the adjacent neighbor, skylights will be visible, seems like the addition has
many parts, many things attached to it, could still have a good exterior which can work well with the interior; being asked
to grant a variance on a large lot, reduced setback of only 3' for 32' in length, wall offset by one foot may provide an
opportunity to create some articulation to eliminate what appears to be an 80' long wall 3' from the property line; long
wall is extremely large and overbearing; front of the building is pleasing, has nice approach and front facade but falls apart
at the rear, concerned only with exterior; see no justification for the variance; this is a small piece at the rear of the house,
has minimal affect, if any, on the character of the neighborhood;, consideration and sensitivity shown to the neighbors
is an important part of building a community; understand the concept of preserving the interior spaces, feel this is
justification for granting the minor variance considering variances have been granted for other properties where essentially
a house is torn down, rebuilt with a greater variance requested; this project does not fit in category of requiring design
review and review should not be taken to that extreme, in support of the project as proposed.
