Nick Bevilacqua, tra fic enginee `, Architectural Dimensions, discussed
his traffic survey a�l projecte traffic generation report: traditional
sources were not adeq�,ate, a f'eld survey was conducted in Burlingame
at several restaurants'.fin ord r to obtain the data needed during the
hours of 11:00 A.M, to :30 �M, and 4:00 P.M. to 7:�0 P.M.; people
were counted in 15 minu� q�Zarters, lunch time peak and afternoon peak
were calculated, the surv��'ors counted personal trips; selected
interviews were conducted�`'�o determine those who came to the area
solely to eat and if the�`� drove. It was determined peak hour for these
restaurants is midday, �:'5-25�'� drove to eat only. With a formula
created for this study the fo`'�lowing was determined: average group size
was 1.6 which would be 8.4 peo�le at peak hour, this is 8.4 trip ends,
in and out it would be 16 trips:, Their conclusion: Taco Bell would
generate approximately 16 trip en�cls or 32 vehicle trips (one every two
minutes), parking spaces needed du�ing peak hour for Taco Bell would be
16 spaces. There is some correlati`�n between number of seats an3
traffic generat�d, with more seating°'ther� would be fewer trips.
Take-out servi,Ce is not expected to be,much over 20$; take-out occurs
up and down rlingame Avenue, some restaurants do have rear exits with
parking in ack. Mr. Bevilacqua stated h,e did not notice double
parking o Burlingame Avenue the day the survey was taken and he was
able to find parking; he looked at the parki,ng lots, many of the
employees interviewed parked there. Respondi`�g to Commissioner
question, he confirmed he was on Architectural',pimensions' staff and
this was not an independent study.

Nick Bevilacqua, traffic engineer, Architectural Dimensions, discussed
his traffic survey and projected traffic generation report: traditional
sources were not adequate, a field survey was conducted in Burlingame
at several restaurants in order to obtain the data needed during the
hours of 11:00 A.��1. to 2:30 P.iK, and 4:00 P.M, to 7: �0 P.�H. ; people
were counted in 15 minute quarters, lunch time peak and afternoon peak
were calculate3, the surveyors counted personal trips; selected
interviews were conducted to determine those who came to the area
solely to eat and if they drove. It was determined peak hour for these
restaurants is midday, 15-25$ drove to eat only. With a formula
created for this study the following was determined: average group size
was 1.6 which would be 8.4 people at peak hour, this is 8.4 trip ends,
in and out it would be 16 trips. Their conclusion: Taco Bell would
generate approximately 16 trip ends or 32 vehicle trips (one every two
minutes), parking spaces needed during peak hour for Taco Bell would be
16 snaces. There is some correlation between number of seats an3
traffic generated, with more seating ther� would be fewer trips.
Take-out service is not expected to be much over 20�; take-out occurs
up and down Burlingame Avenue, some restaurants do have rear exits with
parking in back. Mr. Bevilacqua stated he did not notice double
parking on Burlingame Avenue the day the survey was taken and he was
able to find parking; he looked at the parking lots, many of the
employees interviewed parked there. Responding to Commissioner
question, he confirmed he was on Architectural Dimensions' staff and

A.M.; the formula used to arrive at 32 peak hour vehicle trips for Taco
Bell would apply to all restaurants surveyed on Burlingame Avenue; CE
commente3 such a study qives an idea on the order of magnitude of
vehicle trips in a sample business district; availability and proximity
of parking determines the success of a business district; the over-
whelming problem in this area now is parking.
Brent DeMasquita, Operations, Calny, Inc., stated they hire locally,
employees average 35-50 in total, 15 employees at any given shift
(lunch or dinner), they have many part time employees, full time
are much less than other businesses; at the San Francisco Taco Bell
parking is difficult and businesses in the area use this restaurant for
lunch; in Burlingame high school students would generate a peak at 3:00
P.M ; the mor� seating a restaurant has the more people will stop by
and eat on site; average eating time is 10-12 minutes. With regar3 to
the double oarking problem they would be happy to have an employee
outside asking people not to double park, they have done this in some
locations. Full time maintenance service is provided.
Tytus Boleslawski, Architectural Dimensions, reiterated Taco Bell will
generate 16-32 trips; with maximum capacity only so many cars can stop
and working people nearby will return; 16-32 trips is not that
staggering, any business at that location would impact parking and
generate trips; the city will be getting a new member of the community
wishing to help; this is no different than what exists on the site now,
traffic impact would not be much greater.
Commission comment: restaurants generate a different type of traffic,
the area is impacted the greatest at noontime; existing restaurant has
slow, sit down business, Taco Bell is geared to high turnover.
Chm. Garcia op2ned the public hearing. There were no audience comments
in favor. The following spoke in opposition: Gordon Hosking, 1461
Bernal Avenue; Joseph Rarp, 1209 Burlingame Avenue; Tony Taylor, 1406
Burlingame Avenue; Bill Smith, 1110 Burlingame Avenue; June Hoffman,
1116 Burlingame Avenue; Edith May, 1348 Drake Avenue; Isabel de Paz
(owner of store on Primrose Road). Their concerns: traffic and parking
impacts, litter/garbage, loitering. Comments included: Burlingame
Avenue is a'special' street; the nature of a fast food restaurant is
not compatible with the Avenue, presently there are special restaurants
with their own ambience, bringing in a'plastic' typ� restaurant would
not be in keeping with this street; if Taco Bell is allowed, what next;
the numbers presented cannot be correct, believe many more meals will
be served than what was indicated; if the existing restaurant were
serving 350 meals a day they would not be leaving; La Pinata serves 350
dinners an evening with 175 seats.
Audience comments continued: the restaurant ordinance does not preclude
expansion of restaurants but the reason Taco Bell needs the extra space
is to accommodate a kitchen facility for take-out food; would not
object to a regular sit down restaurant at this location; there is

Item #6
MEMO TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: CITY PLANNER
SUBJECT: SPECIAL PERMIT FOR A TAT{E-OUT FOOD SERVICE FOR TACO BELL
AT 1160 BURLINGAME AVENUE, ZONEll C-1, SUB-AREA A
The applicant, represented by Allan Palmer of Architectural Dimensions,
is requesting a special permit to locate a take-out food service at
1160 Burlingame Avenue, zoned C-1, Sub-Area A(Code Sec. 25.36.030-13).
The request is to expan3 the existing Village Lantern restaurant by
adding the 776 SF of the adjacent beauty parlor in order to change the
operation and type of restaurant to one which does a substantial
proportion of its business in take-out food service. There is no
parking on site. The closest public parking lot is located at the
corner of Lorton and Donnelly about a block away. The regulations of
Sub-Area A allow first floor retail and service uses, including
restaurants, without on-site parking. However, Council recently
adopted a new regulation requiring special use permit review for all
take-out food service. In their action Council expressed concern about
the parking, trash and other impacts, particularly in the more
intensively developed commercial areas, of this type of business.
Staff Review
City staff have reviewed the application. The Fire Marshal (December
17, 1985 memo) notes that the basement of the building is to be used
for building maintenance and service equipment only. The Chief
Building Inspector (December 16, 1985 memo) had no comments. The City
Engineer (January 8, 1986 memo) comments that in his opinion the
proposed use, because it is a high turnover restaurant, probably
represents an increase in traffic generation and parking demand of
two to five times that of the existing restaurant. Peak hour trips
(lunch time) in the area will probably increase from ten to 35 or more
daily. He also notes that the applicant should be required to replace
the damaged sidewalk, gutter and curb adjacent to the site.
Planning staff would note several concerns. First, this type of
restaurant/food service uses a lot of prepackaged and wrapped foods.
Three or four trash receptacles should be required, at least one by the
front door, one by the closest street bench on Burlingame Avenue, and
one at the end of the restaurant site on Lorton. These receptacles
should be the same in appearance as those placed by the City of
Burlingame on Burlingame Avenue. The applicant should be responsible
for emptying these containers regularly so that trash and litter do not
become a problem in the area.
Unlike other existing food service businesses which rely heavily on
take-out service on Burlinqame Avenue (Round Table Pizza, Maria's
Pasta, Burger King), this one does not have immediate rear door access
to a public parking lot. Thus, given the volume of business expected,
staff anticipates that there may be some serious problems with double
-2-
parking by patrons in a hurry. The closest public parking lot at
Donnelly and Lorton is heavily impacted at lunch by those already in
the area to shop, eat and work. This impaction was demonstrated by the
recent application for a women's gym at 1208 Donnelly. In the evening
after working hours La Pinata patrons use the Lorton/Donnelly parking
lot heavily. In the past when Banyan Bay was operating as a restaurant
and bar there were serious parking problems in this area.
Applicant's Letter
In their letter of December 11, 1985 the applicants describe the
proposed project as a remodel of an existing restaurant and small hair
salon into a 2,440 SF fast service Mexican style restaurant. The plan
as proposed would use the existing dining room and restroom areas and
add a new food preparation, storage room and service space. The
finished restaurant would seat 74. The restaurant would be open 12
hours a day, seven days a week. Weekday customers would average
between 600 an3 650, weekend customers averaqe 750 per day. Sixty
employees would be employed on a full or part time basis. Service
deliveries would occur about three times a week between 6:00 A.M. and
7:00 A.M.
Questions at Study
The Planning Commission reviewed this application at study on January
13, 1986. The applicant was asked to address two items: the number of
employees and customers at the existing restaurant and how the
projected 650 to 750 customers for the new restaurant was calculated.
The applicant submitted a letter (January 20, 1986) addressing current
volume of business and number of employees at the existing restaurant
at 1160 Burlingame Avenue. Their data show 12 employees at lunch and
15 at dinner. This would be compared to 50 to h0 employees full and
part time all probably not on site at one time in the proposed project.
They also note that daily customers at the existing restaurant are
about 350; compared to 650 to 750 projected for the new restaurant.
In the letter they note that the projection of 550 to 750 daily
customers was based on the current and projected operation of a Taco
Bell on Taylor Boulevard in San Francisco. They feel that this
operation closely resembles the proposed operation in Burlingame. They
are also preparing traffic survey information which will be presented
at the public hearing.
Planninq Commission Action
The Planning Commission should hold a public hearing. Affirmative
action should be taken by resolution. The reason for any action should
be clearly explained. At the hearing the following conditions should
be considered:
1. that the conditions of the Fire Marshal's December 17, 1985 and
City Engineer's January 8, 1986 memos shall be met;
��
2. that the applicant shall be responsible for the maintenance,
placement and regularly emptying trash receptacles of a design
approved by the city at locations determined by the Public Works
Department, and the applicant shall be responsible for policing the
immediate area for trash; and
3. that the proposed restaurant shall be open for business no more
than 12 hours a day, seven days a week, have no more than 74 seats
and employ no more than 50 full and part time employees, and be
limited to an area of 2,683 SF.

(COP1MUNICATION REC'D
AFTER PREPARATION OF
STUDY PACKET)
RE: Special Permit for Take Out Food Service, 1160 Burlingame Ave
In the light of the heavy parking demands in the area during the day, the
proposed use should be carefully reviewed.
The proposed use appears to be similar to the Burger King use at the other
end of Burlingame Avenue. This use should generate a large amount of pedestrian
traffic from the adjacent retail and commercial areas. This use should also
generate a reasonable amount of vehicular traffic from out of immediate
pedestrian access distances. This traffic must compete with the existing
traffic in the area for the limited parking and roadway capacity that is
available. No on site parking is proposed, however three City parking lots
are available within a short walking distance.
I reviewed standard data for the various types of restaurants, the existing
use also being a restaurant, and compared the traffic estimates based on
square footages. In my opinion the applicant's customer estimates could
generate, using 50% of the customer count as generating traffic, at least
800 or more trips per day (a trip being a vehicular movement into or out of
the area). This is somewhat less than a"Drive-In" restaurant at about
1350 trips per day for similar size. A high turnover sit down type restaurant
may generate an average figure of 320 trips per day with 1350 trips per day
as a mixumum. A quality restaurant, on the other hand, represents a much
lower figure of 185 trips per day on the average. The existing restaurant,
1700 SF, could have generated from 125 or more trips per day based on a quality
restaurant basis.
The conclusion, in my opinion, is that the proposed use, as a high turnover,
sit down type restaurant probably represents an increase demand on parking
and traffic capacity of at least two (2) to as much as five (5) times the
traffic over the existing restaurant, and at least twice that of a normal sit down
restaurant. Peak hour demands, at lunch time, also appears to greatly increase,
from 10 or so trips existing to in the neighborhood of 35 or more trips as
proposed.
If this permit is granted it should be subject to the following conditions:
l. The applicant replace adjacent curb, gutter and sidewalk that is damaged.

BURLINGAME, CALIF. 94010
Feb. 1, 1986
as the owners of Salamander Shoes we wish to
voice our opinion against the opening of Taco Bell on
Burlingame Ave.
Being in our present location for over 20 years we have seen
the parking and traffic situation going from fair to bad
to worse.
Our retail customers have complaint bitterly over the past
5 years over not being able to find a parking space within
a 4-5 block area of the avenue particularly during peak hours.
The comments, " that the Avenue is soon a" Food Alley " and
not attracting new shoppers " have been numerous!
Not to mention the trash from the take-out Restaurants.
Nick Bevilacqua has a very uppidy nonsensical attitude of
a" self correcting " parking and traffic problem. If Taco Bell
can affort 16 less people visit the store, the rest of the
retail merchants on the Avenue and side Streets surely can not
affort this loss in their establishments!
Why not take a survey of the merchants and their customers, on
the Avenue and the side Streets.
Hoping this matter can be resolved, we remain
with kind regards,
�.z ��..�.� :':--.�z,x. e _-/.
