details of the request, staff review, applicant's letter and
justification for variance, study meeting questions as addressed in
the staff report, Planning staff comment. Two conditions were
suggested for consideration at the public hearing.
Discussion: number of leased parking spaces on the Northpark site;
Velvet Turtle parking garage is on property owned by Velvet Turtle,
Northpark has exclusive right to the tennis courts on top of that
building; parking spaces at the present maintenance facility are
considered to be off-site and not counted in meeting the parking
requirement for Northpark; impacted on-street parking situation,
complaints received about impacted on-�ite parking in the evening;
parking requirements at the time Northpark was constructed and present
parking requirements.
Chm. Graham opened the public hearing. Richard Coxall, applicant,
advised Northpark would be willing to terminate the agreement with
Mike Harvey for leased parking spaces if desired. There were no
audience comments and the public hearing was closed.
Commission discussion: 10 space sublease to Chandler will continue,
daytime use only up until 5:00 P.M., after which it becomes guest
parking; were the six spaces on the north side of the Chandler
building included in the original count; condominium application was
never completed, hearing notices are sent only to property owners,
tenants of Northpark were not noticed; spaces in the complex are

Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes August 13, 1984
assigned as conveniently as possible and are of standard size;
possibility of restriping for compacts, applicant could then meet code
at the time of construction but would not meet current code
requirements; there is large landscaped area, adding a maintenance
facility would not greatly affect aesthetics of the complex; city
should have required the maintenance building originally owned by
Northpark to be permanently tied to Northpark; difficult to make
findings in support of this variance; alternatives have not been
explored, do not feel this is the only solution for the applicant;
city has a problem with impacted parking in apartment zones, how can
Commission allow this variance when it has denied many others; would
like the six spaces which would be lost to be replaced; why not put
the maintenance building somewhere else rather than underground.
C. Giomi moved to deny this parking variance without prejudice.
Second C. Garcia; motion approved unanimously on roll call vote.
Appeal procedures were advised.

Chm. Graham opened the public hearing. Applicant was present. There
ware no audience comments and the hearing was closed.
Commission discussion/concerns: site inspection revealed a few
apparently unused vehicles and a demolished truck on the site;
concern was expressed about this yard becoming a junk yard; applicant
advised trucks on the lot are those used every day; Commission
questioned who would monitor compliance with the conditions of the
application. Further comment: am not concerned as long as there are
no more than 10 trucks on the site, construction trucks generally look
in worse operating condition than they are; would ask that Commission
consider this is a substantially different request, applicant would
like a long term lease, this business would become another use on this
property, should consider long term implications; strongly urge a
condition be placed on the application that the yard be paved.
C. Taylor moved for approval of this special permit renewal with the
following conditions: (1) that the storage area be enclosed by a well
maintained chain link fence with redwood slats inserted and a rolling
