Item No. 8f
Action Item
Address: 1217 Burlingame Avenue Meeting Date: February 9, 2015
Request: Application for Commercial Design Review for changes to the front fa�ade of an existing
commercial storefront.
Applicant and Designer: Dale Meyer, Dale Meyer Associates, designer APN: 029-204-040
Property Owner: Green Banker LLC Lot Area: 4,050 SF
General Plan: Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan: Burlingame Avenue Commercial District Zoning: BAC
Current Use: L'Escape Spa, personal service use (spa and massage)
Proposed Use: Heavenly Couture, retail clothing store
Allowable Use: Retail apparel is a permitted use.
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 personal service business, L'Escape Spa (spa
and massage) with a new retail apparel business, Heavenly Couture, at 1217 Burlingame Avenue, zoned
BAC.
This application includes changes to the exterior facade of the commercial storefront along Burlingame
Avenue, which measures 9'-4" in width. The existing wood door, wood framed bay window and tile above
and below the bay window would be removed; the existing wood trim above and below the clerestory
windows would remain.
The proposed application consists of installing a new polished white metal framed storefront window and
door system below the wood trim on the ground floor. The existing wood framed transom windows (with
textured glass), currently divided into three sections, would be replaced with wood framed transom windows
(with clear glass) divided into five sections to match the original design of the building (see attached
photographs and discussion under `Study Meeting' section on the page 2 of the staff report). The entry to
the space would be recessed to match in the same way as the existing front entry.
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)). Therefore, no additional off-street
parking is required for the proposed retail apparel 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: See attached memos from the Building, Engineering, Fire and Stormwater Divisions.
Commercial Design Review 1217 Burlingame Avenue
Study Meeting: At the Planning Commission Design Review Study meeting on January 26, 2015, the
Commission had several comments regarding the proposed application (see attached January 26, 2015
Planning Commission Minutes). The Commission suggested that the transom windows be brought back to
match the original design of the building. The Commission expressed a concern with the location of the wall
sign, noting that it is high and not to human scale, and that a blade sign should be considered instead. The
Commission also asked if the existing maroon ceramic tile on the column, which is in poor condition, could
be replaced.
The applicant submitted a response letter and revised plans, dated January 30, 2015 to address the
Planning Commission's comments and suggestions. Based on photographs provided by the Historical
Society (attached), the original building consisted of transom windows with grids, with five transom windows
over each of the end tenants and six transom windows over the center tenant. Originally, all of the windows
on all floors of the front fa�ade contained grids, however these windows have been replaced without grids
over time. To be consistent with the original building design, the applicant is proposing to replace the
existing transom windows (currently divided into three sections) with wood framed transom windows (with
clear glass) divided into five sections. However the designer is not proposing grids since none of the
existing windows on the front facade of the building contain grids.
The applicant notes that the existing ceramic tile on the columns will be surface cleaned, holes filled and
patched. In addition, the tile located in the return to the storefront will be stripped of paint and returned to its
original condition as closely as possible.
Regarding signage, the applicant notes that a wall sign will be not installed as previously shown above the
transom windows, but rather the applicant will use the existing blade sign support to add a new blade sign
for the business.
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.

RE: 1217 Burlingame Avenue
Dear Mr. Hurin:
This letter is in response to your comments received at the Study Session on January 30,
2015 concerning the above project. Please find the following attachments: revised
drawings.
1. The new sign location above the transom windows was deleted from the project. The
existing blade sign location will be used with a new blade sign for this tenant.
2. In light of the newly surfaced photo taken after construction was completed in 1938,
we have decided to put new wood transoms in 5 sections in clear glass over our
storefront. We decided not to add the divided lights as shown in the photo because
the apartment windows above currently do not have divided lights as originally built.
3. The existing ceramic tile column will be surface cleaned with holes filled and
patched. The tile located in the return to the storefront will be stripped of paint and
put back to its original state as closely as possible.
Please call me if there are any questions.
Sincerely,
c�.e�—P•4-.��
Dale Meyer, AIA/lk

Questions of staff.�
None.
Dale Meyer represented the applicant:
> Facade change.
> Just received copy of /etter from Historical Society. Some of the e/ements mentioned in letter will be
moving in direction already. Transom window will be replaced.
> Adjacent So/e Desire space is vacant, will be rented. Wood panel over the transom windows on that
space like/y to be removed. Would be relatively easy over time to restore lower facade of entire building .
Would depend on tenant; fhis tenant is in agreement to restore transom windows.
> Newspaper article shows 16 spaces in transom window. Could try to match that configuration.
> Wants lots of glass on storefront, as much as structure would allow given narrow space. In historic
photos looks like glass extends up to transom windows already. �II /eave existing wooden door leading
up to upstairs residential space.
Commission comments/quesfions:
> Should bring transom windows back to original design. On storefronts fypically keep traditional
configuration above the trim or awning line, but can be more flexible with storefront design below trim
line. Still needs to have good human sca/e at storefront level.
> The datum is the trim /evel that extends across all three storefronts.
> Why are the transom windows being replaced? (Meyer: They have textured g/ass that obscures
most of the light. �ll try to duplicate original transom design including wood material.) �

Planning Commission Meeting Minutes January 26, 2015
> Is the neighboring space /eased? Would like to see the two proposals together. Having the two
spaces restored could be good publicity for the owner.
> Existing sign is very high; sign in new design would be even higher. Does not seem to be human
scale.
> Mingalaba awning and signage is very busy, would want this to be simpler and have more of a retail
character. (Meyer.� No awning is being proposed for this space. Could consider a blade sign.)
> Existing maroon ceramic tile is in poor condition. Would it be possible to replace it? (Meyer. Tile on
right side wraps around into the adjoining doorway. On left side the tile is painted over.) Maybe jusf clean
it and reseal.
Public comments:
None.

Subject: Agenda Study item 1217 Burl. Ave.( E.L. Norberg architect, 1928)
Dear Planning Commissioners:
I thought you might be interested in this article about the above structure (1213-1215-1217) written in the Burlingame Advance in
1928, a part of which you will be discussing on Monday evening.
The significant structure, the lower portion of which has clearly changed for the worse over many decades, was originally designed by
E. L. Norberg and his brother, John, as this town's first (as built) Safeway store, occupying most of the space on the first floor, with
aparhnents above. Norberg is our most famous and prolific architect, having designed several Burlingame businesses as well as our
Library. This three story structure was an important structure in the development of the business district; it was advertised as all steel
and cement in the 'California and spanish style'. The 1928 article and drawing are quite nice, if you can squint to read it. As an aside,
Safeway didn't last long at that location, moving up a few buildings into what is now Peets Coffee and Teas, same building, and
eventually to the Howard address.
Also attached is a 1940s photo where the same building (then roughly 12 years old) is shown at left; the lower portion was still very
much intact at that point.
I am compelled to write you with regard to the Design Guidelines set forth in the Downtown Specific Plan. These emphasized
cohesion and consistency of architectural styles, with classical proportions and enriched detailing (pilasters, wood detailing, embossed
relie fl.
"Ground floor retail should relate to Downtown's traditional storefronts by using large display windows, kick plates, and clerestory
and transom windows." (section 5.0 Design & Character pg. 5.2, that in fact shows the project building in figure 5-1).
Though it appears that the original 1928 wooden door leading to the apartments/offices above has survived and is
being retained, the remainder of the building's ground level frontage has unfortunately been remodeled in a hodge podge of styles
over many decades, degrading it visually.
The redesign of one of these storefronts should be seen as a rare opportunity to raise the bar for this building as a whole, and a chance
to create some integriry of design. One can assume that there will be probably alterations of the remaining 2
storefronts in this structure in the future, so this design you are studying should be done with care and
consideration of what design elements could be developed that could potentially be integrated later into the rest
of the ground floor in order to knit the whole unit back together again.
The clerestory windows, for example, could be divided into smaller, evenly spaced units, such as those that appear in the original
drawing (there appear to have been 16 clerestory panels total over the width of the building). Historically, the clerestory windows
typically did not mirror the pattern of the display windows below, thus providing another point and detail of visual interest. So many
of the original clerestory windows have been lost or covered on the Avenue, this would be an opportunity to build them back into the
fabric of this large structure.
As a side note, also on the 1940s photo, note the far left building (tile front) building that you recently worked on (as Kate Spade). The
original subway tile had been obliterated on the lower portion of the building, but through redesign was reintroduced to emulate the
(still in place) original tiles above. This was a great example of bringing back a classic design that embellishes our beautiful Avenue,
and that front really turned out nicely.
Similarly, it would be wonderful to see this proud structure recapture some of the design integrity that has been lost over the years.
Thank you for your consideration.

Based on information provided on this plan submittal, fire sprinklers may not be
required. Drawings submitted to the Building Dept. for review shall be evaluated for
determination of fire sprinkler requirements per Burlingame Municipal Code Chapter
17.
If sprinklers are not required as a result of this remodel, be advised where more than

(2) year period, the sum of these alterations during this two (2) year period shall be
aggregated for the purpose of calculating the replacement cost value formula. This
calculation will determine retroactive fire sprinkler requirements. Final determination
will be made and the plan review phase of the project.

Based on information provided on this plan submittal, fire sprinklers may not be
required. Drawings submitted to the Building Dept. for review shall be evaluated for
determination of fire sprinkler requirements per Burlingame Municipal Code Chapter
17.
If sprinklers are not required as a result of this remodel, be advised where more than
one building alteration for which building permits are required are made within a two
(2) year period, the sum of these alterations during this two (2) year period shall be
aggregated for the purpose of calculating the replacement cost value formula. This
calculation will determine retroactive fire sprinkler requirements. Final determination
will be made and the plan review phase of the project.
