One Year Extension and Landscape Plan Revisions
Address: 1431 EI Camino Real
Meeting Date: February 14, 2022
Request: Application for a One Year Extension and Landscape Plan Revisions for a previously approved
application for a Mitigated Negative Declaration, Condominium Permit, Design Review and Parking Variance
for a new 3-story, 6-unit condominium building.
Applicant and Architect: LDP Architecture APN: 026-013-110
Property Owner: Wavecho, LLC Lot Area: 7,721 SF
General Plan: Medium-High Density Residential Zoning: R-3
Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan (R-3 Base District)
Adjacent Development: Multi-unit residential to north, south and east; single-unit residential at the rear (west)
CEQA Status: The proposed project is covered by Mitigated Negative Declaration 598-P, approved
February 12, 2018.
Current Use: 4-unit apartment building
Proposed Use: 6-unit condominium building
Allowable Use: Multi-unit, duplex, and single-unit residential
Summary of Request: The applicant is requesting a One Year Extension of a previously approved application
for a Mitigated Negative Declaration, Condominium Permit, Design Review and Parking Variance for the use of
mechanical parking lifts and Tentative Condominium Map for construction of a new 3-story, 6-unit
condominium building. The application was approved by the Planning Commission on February 12, 2018 (see
attached February 12, 2018 Planning Commission Minutes).
The Planning Commission approval of this application became effective on March 8, 2018. This approval was
valid for a period of one year (until March 8, 2019) during which time a building permit must be issued. The
applicant had not yet applied for a building permit and in March 2019 requested a One Year Extension noting
that he was a new owner who had acquired the property following approval of the entitlements and was
working on securing consultants to prepare the construction drawings. The One Year Extension was granted
at that time.
The tentative and final parcel map for the project was approved by the City Council on March 4, 2019 (see
attached resolution). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there have been State and local extensions to all
approvals called "tolling". Therefore, as a result the State extension the map action is valid until September 4,
2022. Since the entitlements are tied to the approved map, the expiration date for building permit issuance is
September 4, 2022. Based on the tolling for the entitlements, they (alone) would have expired on December
31, 2021, however the applicant submitted a request for a One Year Extension on December 9, 2021. So while
the entitlements are tied to the map and in place until September 4, 2022, the applicant is still requesting the
entitlement extension that would keep the entitlements effective until December 31, 2022.
At the extension hearing on April 8, 2019, the project was called off of the Consent Calendar and the
neighbors spoke regarding concerns about privacy (see attached April 8, 2019 Planning Commission Minutes).
The Planning Commission approved the extension with a condition of approval requiring that the applicant
return to the Commission on the Consent Calendar with revised landscape plans that offer rear screening to
the abutting neighbors on Balboa Avenue. The original approval included shrubs and two deciduous trees
(Gingko biloba). The revised landscape plan (date stamped February 2, 2022) now shows two, 36-inch box
sized, Brisbane Box trees. These are evergreens and would be located along the rear property line. The
landscape architect has provided a letter, dated stamped February 2, 2022, noting that these trees, in addition
to the proposed shrubs (Black Stem Pittosporum), would provide dense screening along the rear property, as
requested at the public hearing in April 2019.
One Year Permit Extension 1431 EI Camino Real
Project Summary of Previously Approved Project: The previously approved project includes demolishing
the existing 4-unit apartment building and detached garage and constructing a new, three-story, 6-unit
residential condominium building. The subject property is zoned R-3 and has a General Plan land use
designation of Medium-High Density residential with 21-50 dwelling units per acre, which allows up to 8 units.
The approved application is for 6 units which is a density of 35 dwelling units per acre.
The residential condominium building will have 6 units side-by-side and will be 3 stories in height. Each unit will
have a ground level parking garage that will include a mechanical automobile stacker. The garage will have a
13'-3" plate height to accommodate two covered parking spaces; one on top of the other. There will be two
living levels located above the garage. The overall proposed height is 35 feet. There will be two at-grade guest
parking spaces located in the right rear corner. There is also a dedicated service/delivery vehicle space located
in the rear yard area. The entrance to each of the units is located on the north facing (driveway) side of the
project.
The project includes six, two-bedroom condominium units. The average unit size proposed is 1,097 SF, with
the units ranging from 1,064 SF through 1,195 SF. Condominium projects are required to provide 100 SF of
common open space per unit and a minimum of 75 SF of private open space per unit. The proposed project
meets these requirements with 608 SF of common open space in the rear yard and a minimum of 75 SF of
private open space per unit with private balconies.
Required off-street parking is based on the number of bedrooms. Each two-bedroom unit is required to provide
two off-street parking spaces, 80% of which must be covered spaces. The proposed project will provide 12 on-
site parking spaces that will be provided in the form of inechanical, stacked auto lifts (parking lifts). The subject
property is not located within the boundaries of the plan area for the Downtown Specific Plan, where parking
options, such as lifts, are allowed by right. Therefore a Parking Variance was required for the parking lifts.
In addition, two on-site guest parking •spaces are required for new condominium projects with 5-15 units. The
two guest parking spaces meet all dimensional standards and are located in the right rear corner of the
property. In addition, one on-site service and/or delivery vehicle space is required, which is provided in the rear
setback.
Lastly, 50% of the front setback is required to be landscaped. The project includes 56.9% (586 SF)
landscaping in the front yard where 50% (514 SF) is the minimum required. The project meets all other zoning
code and condominium permit requirements.
The following applications were approved for this project:
■ Design Review for construction of a new three-story, 6-unit condominium building (C.S. 25.28.020);
■ Condominium Permit (Tentative Condominium Map) required for construction of new condominium
building (C.S. 26.30.020) and
■ Parking Variance for the use of inechanical parking lifts to provide the required parking spaces (C.S.
25.70.032).

are no changes proposed to the previously approved applications for a new 3-story, 6-unit condominium
building, except for the rear landscaping as requested by the neighbors, the project is found to be compatible
with the criteria for the Mitigated Negative Declaration, Design Review, Condominium Permit and Parking
Variance.

Mitigation Measures from Initial Study
Cultural Resources
46. Unanticipated Discovery of Archaeological Resources. All construction crew members shall be
alerted to the potential to encounter sensitive archaeological material. In the event that
archaeological resources (sites, features, or artifacts) are exposed during construction acfivities for
the proposed project, all construction work occurring within 100 feet of the find shall immediately stop
7
One Year Permit Extension
1431 EI Camino Real
until a qualified archaeologisf, meefing the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification
Standards, can evaluate the significance of the find and determine whether additional study is
warranted. Prehistoric archaeological deposits may be indicated by the presence of discolored or
dark soil, fire-affected material, concentrations of fragmented or whole marine shell, burned or
complete bone, non-local lithic materials, or a characteristic observed to be atypical of the
surrounding area. Common prehistoric artifacts may include modified or battered lithic materials; lithic
or bone tools that appeared to have been used for chopping, drilling, or grinding; projectile points;
fired clay ceramics or non-functional items; and other items. Historic-age deposits are often indicated
by the presence of glass bottles and shards, ceramic material, building or domestic refuse, ferrous
metal, or old features such as concrete foundations or privies. Depending on the significance of the
find under CEQA (14 CCR 15064.5(f]; Public Resources Code Section 21082), the archaeologist may
simply record fhe find and allow work to continue. lf the discovery proves significant under CEQA,
additional work, such as preparation of an archaeological treatment plan, testing, or data recovery,
may be warranted.
47. Unanticipated Discovery of Human Remains. In accordance with Section 7050.5 of the California
Health and Safety Code, if human remains are found, the county coroner shall be immediately notified
of the discovery. No further excavation or disturbance of the site or any nearby area reasonably
suspected to overlie adjacent remains shall occur unfil the county coroner has determined, within 2
working days of notification of the discovery, the appropriate treatment and disposition of the human
remains. If the county coroner defermines that the remains are, or are believed to be, Native American,
he or she shall notify the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) in Sacramento within 24
hours. ln accordance with California Public Resources Code, Section 5097.98, the NAHC must
immediately notify those persons it believes to be the most likely descendant from the deceased Native
American. The most likely descendant shall complete his/her inspection within 48 hours of being
granted access to the site. The designated Native American representative would then determine, in
consultation with the property owner, the disposition of the human remains.
48. Unanticipated Discovery of Paleontological Resources. Paleontological resources are limited,
nonrenewable resources of scientific, cultural, or educational value and are afforded protection under
state laws and regulations (CEQA). Paleontological resources are explicitly afforded protection by
CEQA, specifically in Section V(c) of CEQA Guidelines Appendix G, the Environmental Checklist Form,
which addresses the potential for adverse impacts to "unique paleontological resource(sJ or site(s] or ...
unique geological feature(s]" (14 CCR 15000 et seq.). Further, CEQA provides that, generally, a
resource shall be considered "historically significanY' if it has yielded or may be likely to yield
information important in prehistory (14 CCR 15064.5(a](3J(DJ). In the event that paleontological
resources (silicified shell, bone, or other features) are exposed during construction activities for the
proposed projecf, all consfruction work occurring within 100 feet of the find shall immediately stop until
a qualified paleontologist can evaluate the significance of fhe find. This analysis shall comply with
guidelines and significance criteria specified by the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology. lf fhe discovery
proves significant under CEQA, additional work, such as preparation of an archaeological treatment
plan, testing, or data recovery, may be warranted.

Noise
1431 EI Camino Real
49. The project sponsor shall retain a qualified acoustical engineer to prepare an acoustical study in
accordance with State Title 24 requirements. The acoustica/ study shall identify methods of design and
construction to comply with the applicable portions of the California Building Code Title 24 to achieve
an indoor noise level of 45 A-weighted decibel community noise equivalent level or less from traffic
noise sources.
50. All construction equipmenf shall use available noise-suppression devices and properly maintained
mufflers. All internal combustion engines used on the project site shall be equipped with the type of
muffler recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. ln addition, all equipment shall be maintained in
a good mechanical condition to minimize noise created by a faulty or poorly maintained engine,
drive train, or other component.
51. During construction,
directed away from
receptors.
stationary construction equipment shall be placed such that emitted noise is
sensitive noise receptors and as far as possible from the boundary of sensitive
52. Pursuant to the City of Burlingame Municipal Code, the applicant shall limit construction activities to
between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, and Saturdays between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m.

permit process was automatically extended to December 315Y, 2021. The design drawings for
the building permit are nearing completion and submittal but we anticipate comments from
the various departments that will require time to respond to, review, and gain approval. Thus,
we are applying to extend the entitlements for one year.
No changes have been made to the project's design since it was approved. PDF's and (7)
hard copy half-sized sets of the previously approved design are included for your reference.

Re_ Revised Landscape Pfan for 1431 EI Camino Real
Brian:
February 1, 2022
The revised landscape plan specifies two new evergreen trees instead of the deciduous
trees previously proposed. The trees are Brisbane Box which will grow to a height of 30
to 60 feet. The proposed shrubs along the rear fence remain Black Stem Pittosporum,
and these will grow 15 to 25 feet high.
Together, the trees and understory shrubs will form a dense screen. Both can be
managed and maintained to achieve the desired height.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Best Regards,

All Commissioners had visited the property. There were no ex-parte communicafions to report.
Senior Planner Keylon provided an overview of the staff report.
Questions of Staff,•
> Clarified that a parking variance is requested because fhe property lies outside of the Downtown
Specific Plan Area. (Keylon: confirmed this fact; policies within the Downtown Specific Plan area permit
the lifts to be considered without a variance.)
Chair Gum opened the public hearing
Toby Levy and Bruce Chen represented the applicant.
Commrssion Questions/Comments:
> May be difficult to grow grass within the median strip; what does the applicant suggest? (Chen: noted
fhat grass is not proposed, low ground-cover is proposed.)
> What is the makeup of the existing units on the property? (Grace: fwo, two-bedroom, one bath units
and two, one-bedroom, one bath units.)
> Could the project be developed without the garage? (Levy: wanted an enclosed garage as it is nicer to
look at.)
> How will delivery vehicles access the property? (Levy: there are adequate turnaround areas.)
> Asked about the noise generated by the garage doors? (Levy: referenced other cities' evaluations that
show that fhe noise studies prepared by the provider are accurate.)
Public Comments:
There were no public comments.
Chair Gum closed the public hearing.
Commission Discussion:
> The project has been thoroughly vetted. Comfortable with fhe findings of the Mitigated Negative
Declaration.
> The site constraints make it difficult to replicate the development that exists on the property currently
without losing units. The project will replace and minimally increase the number of units on the properfy.
Other areas near the location are permitted to use car-stackers for parking.
> The building is similar in scale and massing as well as finishing fo other projects in the area. The

Members of the public requested thaf this item be pulled from the Consent Ca/endar for public hearing.
All Commissioners had visited the project site.
Community Development Director Gardiner provided an overview of the staff report.
There were no questions of sfaff.
Chair Gaul opened the public hearing.
Pu61ic Comments:
Jeff Gebhart: Lives directly behind property. Did not receive notification of fhe original hearing. Foliage as
approved will not provide sufficient screening from views into backyards. Porch faces to the rear, is
requesting the design be changed so porch is moved inwards. Concern with noise from mechanical
garage; measurement only references noise from interior of units.
Vincent Leung, 1432 Balboa Avenue: Acquired the house after the project was approved. Concern with the
project being three stories, looking into the backyard. There is not proper screening. Wants to change the
landscaping from deciduous trees, since they don't provide year-round screening. Had understood there
wou/d be a change to evergreen Brisbane box hedges, but that is not reflecfed on the plans. The hedges
proposed current/y will not grow tall enough to obscure the second floor. Wants a fair compromise.
Applicant represenfative: Owner wants to work with fhe neighbors. Understands the desire for screening .
Can do further studies of the parking lifts. Will set up a meeting with the owner and the architect.
Chair Gaul closed the public hearing.
Commission Comments/Direction:
> The deck measures 11' x 7', which is a reasonable size and not large enough for a large gathering.
> In fhe past the commission has reviewed applications with second-story decks in c/oser proximity to
side yards than this project is to the rear properties. The commission's position has been that if a deck is
not 'party sized," and generally no more than 100 square feet (which this is less), it is not deemed a
prob/em.
> The deck is set back from the property line, and there is a 10-foot easement, and fhen the setback of
the neighboring house.
> The noise of fhe parking lifts is covered by the City's noise regu/ations.

Mitigation Measures from Initial Study
Cultural Resources
46. Unanticipated Discovery of Archaeological Resources. All construction crew members shall
be alerted to fhe potential to encounter sensitive archaeological maferial. In the event that
archaeological resources (sites, features, or artifacts) are exposed during construcfion
activities for the proposed project, all construction work occurring within 100 feet of the find
shall immediately stop until a qualified archaeologist, meeting the Secretary of the lnterior's
Professional Qualification Standards, can evaluate the significance of the find and
determine whether additional study is warranted. Prehistoric archaeological deposits may
be indicated by the presence of discolored or dark soil, fire-affected material,
concentrations of fragmented or whole marine shell, burned or complete bone, non-local
lithic materials, or a characteristic observed to be atypical of the surrounding area.
Common prehistoric artifacts may include modified or battered lithic materials; lithic or bone
tools that appeared to have been used for chopping, drilling, or grinding; projectile points;
fired clay ceramics or non-functional items; and other items. Historic-age deposits are often
indicated by the presence of g/ass bottles and shards, ceramic material, building or
domestic refuse, ferrous metal, or old features such as concrete foundations or privies.
Depending on the significance of the find under CEQA (14 CCR 15064.5(fJ; Public
Resources Code Section 21082), the archaeologist may simply record the find and allow
work to continue. If the discovery proves significant under CEQA, additional work, such as
preparation of an archaeological treatment plan, testing, or data recovery, may be
warranted.

47. Unanticipated Discovery of Human Remains. In accordance with Section 7050.5 of the
California Health and Safety Code, if human remains are found, the county coroner shall be
immediately notified of the discovery. No further excavation or disturbance of the site or any
nearby area reasonab/y suspected to overlie adjacent remains shall occur until the county
coroner has determined, within 2 working days of notification of the discovery, the
appropriate treatment and disposition of the human remains. If the county coroner
determines thaf the remains are, or are believed to be, Native American, he or she shall
notify the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) in Sacramento within 24 hours. In
accordance with California Public Resources Code, Section 5097.98, the NAHC must
immediately notify those persons it believes to be the most likely descendant from the
deceased Native American. The most likely descendant shall complete his/her inspection
within 48 hours of being granted access to the site. The designated Native American
representative would then determine, in consultation with the property owner, the disposition
of the human remains.
48. Unanticipated Discovery of Paleontological Resources. Paleontological resources are limifed,
nonrenewable resources of scientific, cultural, or educational value and are afforded
protection under state laws and regulations (CEQA). Paleontological resources are explicitly
afforded protection by CEQA, specifically in Section V(c) of CEQA Guidelines Appendix G,
the Environmental Checklist Form, which addresses the potential for adverse impacts to
"unique paleontological resource(s] or site(s] or ... unique geological feature�s]" (14 CCR
15000 et seq.). Further, CEQA provides that, generally, a resource sha// be considered
"historically significant" if it has yielded or may be likely to yield information important in
prehistory (14 CCR 15064.5�a](3](D]). In the event that paleontological resources (silicified
shell, bone, or other features) are exposed during construction activities for the proposed
project, all construction work occurring within 100 feet of the find shall immediately stop until
a qualified paleontologist can evaluate the significance of the find. This analysis shall comply
with guidelines and significance criteria specified by the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology. If
the discovery proves significant under CEQA, additional work, such as preparation of an
archaeological treatment plan, testing, or data recovery, may be warranted.
Noise
49. The project sponsor shall retain a qualified acousfical engineer to prepare an acoustical study
in accordance with State Title 24 requirements. The acoustical study shall identify methods of
design and construction to comply with the applicable portions of the California Building Code
Title 24 to achieve an indoor noise level of 45 A-weighted decibel community noise
equivalent level or less from traffic noise sources.
50. All construction equipment shall use available noise-suppression devices and properly
maintained mufflers. All internal combustion engines used on the projecf site shall be
equipped with the type of muffler recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. In addition,
all equipment shall be maintained in a good mechanical condition to minimize noise
created by a faulty or poorly maintained engine, drive train, or other component.
EXHIBIT "A"

51. During construction, stationary construction equipment shall be placed such that emitted
noise is directed away from sensitive noise receptors and as far as possib/e from the
boundary of sensitive receptors.
52. Pursuant to the City of Burlingame Municipal Code, the applicant shall limit construction
activities to between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, and Saturdays between 9
