ITEi�IS FOR ACTION
1. CONTINUED ACTION ON SPECIAL PERMIT FOR A TAKE-OUT FOOD SERVICE AT
1160_BURLINGAME AVENUE, ZONED C-1, SUB-AREA A
Reference staff report, 2/10/86, with attachments. C. Taylor stated he
would abstain due to conflict of interest. C. Giomi who had been
absent at the January 27, 1986 meeting at which time the public hearing
was held stated she had read the minutes and listened to the tapes of
this item. CA advised she could act on the item this evening. CP
Monroe briefly reviewed the request and noted two letters in support
and two in opposition received after the public hearing was closed.
Chm. Garcia acknowledged Councilman Lembi in the audience.
Commission comments/concerns: overlapping of vehicle trips during lunch
hour peak, applicant's figures of 16 spaces required or 32 trip ends
did not address overlapping, a business cannot survive without
available parking; regarding applicant handling the problem of double
parking, this is the authority of the Police Department; number of
employees at the existing restaurant compared to the much larger number
projected for this business; similar applications have been rejected
because of oarking impacts on the city's congested downtown areas,
applicants should be made aware of the city's concern, applicants
presented data which indicated fast food restaurants impact an area
more than any other use, this is a good business in the wrong place.

Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes February 10, 1985
Further comment: applicant projects 750 customers per day goinq up to
about 1,000 in five years, impact would increase in future years; do
not-._feel the applicant's one day traffic survey has validity, other
retail businesses in the area rely on parking for their customers, if
this application is allowed the city will be doing a disservice to the
other retail outlets on the Avenue.
C. Graham moved to deny this special permit. His statements: parking
is not available in the ara_a between 11:00 A.M,' and 1:00 P.M.; using
applicant's figures of 32 vehicle trips pen c�iur during this period,
thes` veHicles would be traveling around the block three times to find
space (96 trips); garbage pickup is not ava�ilable in the building,
garbage would be put on the street at nignt and that area not cleaned
up until 10:30 the next morning when the,"restaurant opens; this is
essentially a change in use from a din�} �r hour peak (existing) to lunch
hour peak (proposed). Second C. Schw�lm; motion approved on a 5-0-1
roll call vote,��,C. Taylor abstaining�� Appeal procedures were advised.
