RECOMMENDATION: City Council should hold a public hearing and take action. Affirmative action should be by resolution and should include findings. The reasons for any action should be clearly stated for the record. At the public hearing the following conditions should be considered. Conditions recommended by the Planning Commission: that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department date stamped May 1, 2001 Sheets 1 through 4, reflecting the following changes from the August 4, 2000 plans previously approved: the elimination of the rear second floor deck and French doors off of the master bedroom along the south side of the property, the addition of a 2'-6" X 4'-6" casement window in the master bedroom along the north elevation, the addition of a small gable over the master bedroom and master bathroom at the rear, the addition of a 3'-0" X 8'-0" access door along the south elevation and changes to the architectural features with the addition of stucco foam trim to the elevations and that the driveway shall be narrowed one foot to install a one foot planter strip the length of the driveway between the wall on property line and the new driveway edge of the curb cut shall be reconstructed to match the nanowed driveway; 2. that any changes to the footprint or floor area of the building shall require and amendment to this permit; that any changes to size or envelope of the first or second floors, which would include adding or enlarging a dormer(s), moving or changing windows and architectural features or changing the plate height, roof height, or pitch, shall be subject to design review; 4. that the conditions of the City Engineer's July 24, 2000 memo shall be met; that the stairwell on the south elevation shall be redesigned so that is project from the landing up as a cantilevered bay and breaks up the long south side of the house; and 6. that the project shall meet all the requirements of the California Building and Fire Codes, 1998 edition, as amended by the City of Burlingame. APPEAL OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S APPROVAL WITH ANADDED CONDITION FOR ANAMENDMENT TO A DESIGNREVIEW PERMIT FOR A NEW TWO-STORYSINGLE FAMILYDWELLINGAT 1441 BERNAL AVENUE, ZONED R-I _ .Tune l8, 200I Planning Commission Action The Planning Commission considered this request for amendment for changes to a design review for a new house originally approved on August 28, 2000. During construction a number of changes were made to the approved design, a neighbor and the building inspector brought the changes to the attention of the Planning Department. On Apri123, 2001, the Planning Commission reviewed the changes. Commission continued their action twice to the meeting of May 14, 2000 and then May 29, 2001, for clarification from the Public Works department. At the meeting of May 29, 2001, the commission voted to approve the revised plans which included the as built changes to the exterior of the house with the added condition that the applicant should reduce the width of the driveway to conform to the plans approved and to reinstall the one foot planter strip between the driveway and the neighbor's property line wall. The condition also required that the curbcut be narrowed and the driveway opening and apron narrowed and relocated to match the relocated driveway. In their action the commissioners noted the importance of driveway planter strips between properties to neighborhood character and to creation of privacy between properties; the width of the newly installed curbcut was requested by the applicant and installed before the wider driveway was installed without the planter strip, these changes were not "clouded" as changes on the plans submitted to the commission for the design review amendment; a smaller driveway curbcut opening would also meet public works access standards for this lot; the fact that the improvements are all in place does not justify retaining them, others have had to redo construction because it did not comply with approved plans, concerned about the precedent that retaining these improvements under these circumstances would create; discussed not replacing the planter strip the entire length of the driveway because of the narrowing (to 81/2 feet) caused by the projection of the house about midway down the driveway toward the rear and the fact that the entire length of the planter strip would not be visible from the street; concerned about how the absence of planting along the property line would affect the neighbor's sense of privacy and also about how removal of the installed curb along the footing of the wall would affect the stability of the wall since the footing of the wall e�ends on to the applicant's property. Following the discussion the commission approved a motion including all the changes to the structure suggested and required that the driveway be narrowed, a one foot planter strip placed next to the wall and the curbcut reformed and narrowed to match the adjusted driveway (narrowed by one foot). The motion passed on a 6-0-1 (C. Luzuriaga absent) roll call vote. BACKGROUND: History On August 28, 2000, the Planning Commission granted a special permit for height (32'-3" requested, 30' allowed) and design review for a new two story single family house at 1441 Bernal Avenue. During the construction the city received a complaint that the house was not being built as it was approved and the building department inspected the construction. The changes to the design as built were identified and noted by "clouding" in the revised plans submitted on May 5, 2001 were: - the rear second floor deck was removed; - a window was added to the master bedroom (to replace the light and ventilation offered by the French doors which accessed the deck); - a roof element was added at the rear where the deck was; - stucco trim was added at the base of the structure at the front and rear; - vertical stucco trim extending from the base trim to the eaves was added at the front right and rear left and right corners of the building; and - a door was added along the south elevation to allow access to the hot water heater relocated from the attic rafters. � �� APPEAL OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S APPROl�AL WITH ANADDED CONDITION FOR ANAMENDMENT TO A DESIGN IZEVIEW PERMIT FOR A NEW TWO-STORY SINGLE FAMIL Y DW �LLING AT 1441 BERNAL A VENUE, ZONED R-I - June I8, 2001 Planning Commission held a public hearing and discussed the amendment at their meeting on May 14, 2001. At this meeting the neighbor expressed concern that the curb cut in the public right-of-way looked as if it was on her property because it extended over her property line (projected into the public right-of-way) and had a negative effect on the appearance of the width of her lot. She wanted the curb opening and driveway apron narrowed. Because the curbcut/apron and driveway widening were not called out as a change on the plans, the City Engineer wished to talk to his staff. The Commission also noted that the driveway had not been installed with a planter strip along the property line wall as shown on the original plans, nor had this change been shown as a change with "clouding" on the revised plans. For these reasons Commission continued the item t� their meeting of May 29, 2001. Project Action May 29, 2001 None of the changes made to the exterior of the project during construction required additional zoning exceptioMs. The curbcut work in the public right-of-way required an encroachment permit from the Public Works Department. The 12 foot curbcut installed was sized at the request of the applicant; the city would also allow a smaller curb cut. The Planning Commission's action was focused on changes to the original design review proposal. In their action the Commission found the changes to the e�erior of the structure acceptable, and approved them. However, they also found that the failure to install the driveway with a planter strip as shown on the plans did not comply with the design review standards for neighborhood compatibility and should be corrected. Correcting the driveway would also result in the need to narrow the curbcut one foot so that the access would match the adjusted location of the driveway. Installing the planter strip would require that an edging curb next to the wall on property line and one foot of newly poured concrete be removed from the front property line to the garage at the rear. This area would need to be edged and filed with dirt to grow plants. The narrowest point between the house and property line wall is 9'/2 feet for a distance of about 121/2 feet. Criteria for Design Review The criteria used for design review were established in Ordinance No. 1591 adopted on Apri120, 1998. These are the criteria which were applied by the Planning Commission. They are outlined as follows: 1. Compatibility of the architectural style with that of the existing character of the neighborhood; 2. Respect for the parking and garage patterns in the neighborhood; 3. Architectural style and mass and bulk of structure; 4. Interface of the proposed structure with the structures on adjacent properties; and 5. Landscaping and its proportion to mass and bulk of structural components.

Planner Keylon presented the staff report; City Engineer Murtura cc�mmented c�n the driveway apron work done within the city right-of-way. Action on this item had been cc�ntinued� I�rc�m the May 14 meeting. Six conditions were suggested for consideration at the public hearin�. Chairman Vistica �pened the public hearing. Linda Frye, 1249 Bernal, property owner, Ralph Domenici, cc�ntractc�r, 51O Almer, and Maiy Packard, 1445 Bernal spoke. Applicant noted that they felt that they had mct all thc I'lannin� Cc�mmission's stipulations necessary to get an occupancy permit; felt that opposition in the nci�hhc�nc��c�d w��s by people who were opposed to bigger houses in general and their property was next tc� sc�mcone whc� I-clt tllat way. Neighbor commented that she was not opposed to the changes to the hc�use hut le� thcir ri�ht t� place their driveway curb cut in front of her house, felt that this installation was illegal and the city should see that it is corrected to the way it was shown on the plans approved by the Plannin� Cc�mmission. I F it is not corrected it will send a message to developers that they can ignore what thc Plannin�, Commission requires. CE Murtuza noted that the curb cut was not to be replaced as part of the prc�jcct until�it and Iour Peet of the street were severly damaged during construction. The new driveway and apron wcrc ��laced to line up wit11 the driveway and sized at the city's 12 foot width as requested by a��plicant. 'The win� oi� the driveway does extend in the public right-of-way 1.2 feet past the neighbor's ��rc�perty linc; since this is public property the city has no problem with this apron location. Applicant noted tllAl LIICy Il11CI nc� ��rohlcm wit11 a replacement of the curb cut but since it was inspected by the city and installcd t<� city standards as inspected, the city should pay for the change to the apron and should not hold up her ��ccu��ancy ��crmit. I learin�, cc�ntinued: Commissioner noted that the curb cut needs to align with the driveway; the first set of plans, apprc�vecl by the; Commission, shows the driveway set back one foot from the fence; the revised plans she�w the clriveway next to the fence, why was the driveway moved/widened? Contractor noted driveway was dama�cd durin� construction and 4 feet of street and the driveway apron/curb cut were installed in March; lhc clrivcway was installed later, a month ago to match curb cut. Showed the change in driveway Ic�cati��n �►Ic�n� wi�h c�ther changes on the plans as requested for this amendment. If apron was installed first then a����licant anticipated widening the driveway and removing the planter strip along the property line wall; who cleciciccl tr� huild the wider apron? CE noted that the applicant asked for the 12 foot curb cut with apron. ('��nu»issioner noted that the change to the width of the driveway, i.e. removal of the planter strip, is not cic�ucled as a chan�e on the revised plans. Contractor noted that when they started to prepare for the driveway installatic�n they discovered an over pour of the footing of the neighbor's wall into their property. �� elt i I� thcy removed this over pour they would make the wall unstable, could not grow anything on top of over ��our cc�ncrete, sc� left it and put in a curb over the overpour to protect wall, with curb then eliminated c�nc 1i���t �,lanlcr stri�� along the wall and widened the driveway. Since they understood that they could install an at-�radr; cc�ncrcle patio without Commission approval, thought they could widen driveway without Purthcr revicw. �C'P notcd that staff had directed the applicant to show all changes from the approved set of � C'ih� nJ Riri�/i��gunr�� /'/un�rii�,�� ('u�nrni,e,cinn U�uy���rrn�ec/ Mi��ules �.

C. Auran was noted as abstaining from this action since it was on the consent calendar and he had not been on the commission when the items was originally reviewed. There were no questions about the application from the Planning Commission. Chairman Vistica opened the public hearing. Mary Packard, 1445 Bernal Avenue, who called the item off the consent calendar and commented that she was unclear about whether the occupancy permit had been issued to this property, but it was being shown for sale this week end, is this legal. The CA noted that there is no relationship between showing a property or selling it and the occupancy permit; this hearing is regarcling corrections that may be needed to be made to the property. She expressed a concern that the curb cut was replaced and it overlaps two feet on to the right-of-way in front of her house. CE noted that he would have to look into this and report back about the situation. The chairman then recognized Ralph Domenici, 510 Almer Road, contractor and applicant for 1441 Bernal Avenue. He noted that the plans showed that the approach to the driveway would need to be replaced and the forms were . installed and inspected by the Public Works Department; the area where the driveway approach is located is public right-of-way and the city has authority over what occurs there. He noted that at the last meeting he did not take the opportunity to apologize to the staff and Commission for not getting 3 City qf l3urlingnme P/annrng Canmra�sion Minutes , May 14, 2001 the paperwork on the changes to this project in before the work was done on the house. CE asked if the widening of the approach in the right-of-way was directed by city staff; the applicant noted that it was. CE noted that he would asl< staff what the issues were. There were no more comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed. Commission comment: feel that if something is encroaching in front of a neighbor's property Commission should at least review the circuinstances by continuing the item 2 weeks so staff can look into it. CA noted that it is possible that a change was required in the curb cut to meet city requirements since it was being installed on city property. Feel that the plans are now complete and would be comfortable acting on them; would be willing to proceed if this were a regular project, but this one was changed without proper approvals, would lilce to wait until we see if the approach and curb-cut is OK or needs to be changed. C.

In urbanized areas, up to three single-family residences may be constructed or converted under this exemption. May 14, 2001 Planning Commission Meeting: On May 14, 2001, the Planning Commission reviewed this project for an amendment to design review (see attached 5/14/O1 Planning Commission minutes). A neighbor called this item off of the consent calendar to express concern that the existing curb cut was replaced and the new curb cut overlaps two feet into the right-of-way in front of her house. The Planning Commission asked the City Engineer to look into this issue and report back to them at the May 29, 2001 meeting. The attached May 17, 2001 memo from the City Engineer states that the Department of Public Works inspected the new driveway approach at 1441 Bernal Avenue and found that it meets all Public Works standards. One wing of the driveway approach does extend approximately 1.2 feet toward the frontage of adjacent properiy to the north, however this is within the City's right-of-way and was done in order to align the driveway approach with the driveway at 1441 Bernal Avenue. Apri123, 2001 Planning Commission Meeting: On Apri123, 2001, the Planning Commission reviewed this project for an amendment to design review (see attached 4/23/O1 Planning Commission minutes). Concerns expressed by the Planning Commission included the following: • emergency egress windows for bedrooms #2 and #3 are not shown correctly on plans; and • extra foam pieces and trim added to elevations but not clouded as changes on the plans. Current Project Revisions (May 1, 2001 plans): After the Apri123, 2001, Planning Commission meeting, the applicant submitted revised plans (date stamped May 1, 2001). The following revisions were made: • all changes to the plans from the originally approved design review project have been noted with those items clouded on the revised set of drawings. The Commission expressed concern that the windows in bedrooms #2 and #3 did not appear to meet egress requirements and may need to be changed. Deputy Chief Inspector Tom McGovern confirmed that based on field inspections, as presently constructed both of these bedrooms have a window with a 5.7 SF opening which meets egress requirements. Desigri Review Amendment /441 Bernal Avenue Current Request : This project is being returned to the Commission because Conditions #1 and #2 have not been met. The structure that has been built differs from that shown on the plans approved by the Planning Commission on August 28, 2000: the rear second floor deck and French doors were removed, a window was added on the north elevation, a small gable was added at the rear, an access door was added along the south elevation along with changes to the architectural features. None of the changes result in a special or conditional use permit or variance . History: On August 28, 2000, the Planning Commission granted approval for a design review and special permit for height to allow the construction of a new two-story house with a detached garage at 1441 Bernal Avenue. A special permit for height was approved to allow a height of 32'-3" where 30'-0" is the maximum height allowed. It was reported to the Planning Department by a neighbor that the project at 1441 Bernal Avenue was not being constructed as it was approved by the Planning Commission. Deputy Chief Building Inspector Tom McGovern went out to the site and found that there were changes made to the structure in the field that were not shown on the plans (date stamped 8/4/00) that were originally approved by the Planning Commission on 8/28/00. The changes made to the design include: • The rear second floor deck, off of the master bedroom along the south side of the properiy, has been eliminated. With the elimination of this deck, came the removal of the French doors leading out onto the deck which served as fire egress for the master bedroom. However, there is an existing 2'-6" X 4'-6" casement window in the master bedroom along the north elevation that meets the fire egress requirement. In order to meet the Building Code requirement for light and ventilation (10% of the room area = 25.4 SF) another 2'-6" X 4'-6" casement window was added along the north elevation that matches the existing casement window along this elevation. The elimination of the deck resulted in the addition of a roof element in between the existing gables over the master bedroom and master bathroom. • Stucco foam trim has been added at the base of the building at the front and rear, and vertical trim that extends up from the base trim to the eaves has been added at the right front building corner, and the left and right rear building corners. The base trim wraps around to the chimney along the south side, and wraps around to the beginning of the dining room along the north side. Stucco foam trim has also been added underneath the north side window of bedroom number three on the second floor, and around the front porch. • A 3'-0" X 8'-0" door has been added along the south elevation to allow access to the water heater that was originally proposed to be located in the attic. Because of the weight of the water heater, it was relocated to an area underneath of the stairs. An exterior door is needed for access to the water heater. • It was also reported to the City that the driveway approach has changed from that which was originally approved. The curb cut area is not within the subject property line boundaries but it is in the City right-of-way. The concrete for the driveway approach was poured in accordance with the requirements of the Public Works Department. The project has not had a final inspection, but Ed Chung, with the Department of Public Works visited the site prior to the pour and noted that all City requirements were being met. When this project originally went through the Design Review process, it was referred to a design review consultant. The revised plans have not been submitted to a design reviewer. The final analysis from the design 2 Desigri Review Amendment 1441 Bernal Avenue ' reviewer on the original project is attached. A copy of the originally approved plans, along with the revised plans, are included for your review.

Staff Comments: See attached. Please see the City Engineer's May 17, 2001 memo stating that the new driveway approach meets the standards for the Department of Public Works. Design Review Criteria: The criteria for design review as established in Ordinance No. 1591 adopted by the Council on Apri120, 1998 are outlined as follows: Compatibility of the architectural style with that of the existing character of the neighborhood; 2. Respect for the parking and garage patterns in the neighborhood; 3. Architectural style and mass and bulk of structure; 4. Interface of the proposed structure with the structures on adjacent properties; and Landscaping and its proportion to mass and bulk of structural components. Design Rsview Amendment 1441 Bernal Avenue Findings: Based on the findings stated in the attached minutes of the Planning Commission's April 23, 2001, meeting, the project (as altered from the plans approved on August 28, 2000) , with the second window added along the north elevation, adds symmetry to this portion of the building and fits in well, privacy is provided by a large tree, and the elimination of the rear second floor deck is an asset since it increases the neighbor's privacy by eliminating direct views into three rear yards and the enclosure blends into the architectural style of the house, and so the revisions are found to be compatible with the requirements of the City's five design review guidelines. Planning Commission Action: The Planning Commission should hold a public hearing. Affirmative action should be made by resolution and should include findings. The reasons for any action should be clearly stated. At the public hearing the following conditions should be considered: that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department date stamped May 1, 2001, Sheets 1 through 4, reflecting the following changes from the August 4, 2000, plans previously approved: the elimination of the rear second floor deck and French doors off of the master bedroom along the south side of the properiy, the addition of a 2'-6" X 4'-6" casement window in the master bedroom along the north elevation, the addition of a small gable over the master bedroom and master bathroom at the rear, the addition of a 3'-0" X 8'-0" access door along the south elevation and changes to the architectural features with the addition of stucco foam trim to the elevations; 2. that any changes to the footprint or floor area of the building shall require and amendment to this permit; 3. that any changes to size or envelope of the first or second floors, which would include adding or enlarging a dormer(s) or changing the roof height or pitch, shall be subject to design review; 4. that the conditions of City Engineer's July 24, 2000 memos shall be met; 5. that the stairwell on the south elevation shall be redesigned so that it projects from the landing up as a cantilevered bay and breaks up the long south side of the house; and 6. that the project shall meet all the requirements of the California Building and Fire Codes, 1998 edition, as amended by the City of Burlingame.

Chairman Luzuriaga made a motion to send this project to a design reviewer with the commission's directions and noted that when the modified project returns to the commission for consideration story poles which outline the ridgelines of the new construction and document the location of the stair structure at the front should be included so that the neighbors can take photographs to document for the commission the impact of the proposed construction on the views from inside the living areas of their houses.

REGULAR ACTION ITEM 4. 1441 BERNAL AVENUE — ZONED R-1RY ��GLE FIAMILY DWELLINGE( IRALPH llOME CI TO AN APPROVED NEW TWO STO APPLICANT• MARK ROBERTSON DESIGNER• LINDA FRYE, PROPERTY OWNER Reference staff report, 4.23.01, with attachments. City Planner presented the report, reviewed criteria and Planning Department comments. Five conditions were suggested for consideration. Commission had no questions of staff. Chairman Luzuriaga opened the public hearing. Mark Robertson, designer, and Ralph Domenici, applicant, noted that they would be available to answer questions. Commission asked if the window in bedroom #3 meets egress requirements; applicant noted that Anderson has special hardware for casement windows, windows will be casement, not double-hung, will correct plans to show casement windows. Commission comment: design review was approved for these plans, need to know that more FAR is not being added with change, feel that proposed changes help the project, removal of the deck at the rear of the house provides privacy for the neighbors; have different opinion, feel that changes do not help the project. How did the changes happen? Applicant noted that the changes occurred during consiruction, previous plans had a deck which looked into neighbors' yards, felt that this was not appropriate, deck and loss of privacy was an issue in previous Commission review, thought that adding a window in bedroom #4 would have little impact on the neighbor. Mary Packard, 1445 Berna1 Avenue, and Viktor Pochron, 1436 Bernal Avenue, addressed the Commission with the following concerns: plans were approved with the condition that the building be built according to the plans approved by the Commission, contractor deviated from the approved plans, contractor has expressed that there is no one in city government who can stop him, contractor needs to abide by the law, this action is illegal and should not be approved, he enforced on kids who were throwing garbage in his construction dumpster, this will cause a precedent and create lawlessness, curb cut was moved by three feet towards her property, this action invalidates city's building process; generally happy with the construction 5 City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes Apri123, 2001 of the house, not too happy with the changes, surprised that window was added in the bedroom, will closely watch contractor if he is to build house at 1433 Bernal Avenue, this house was reviewed twice by the Commission, would like to have house built as on approved plans, happy with the removal of the deck, adding a window was inconsiderate. Staff noted that the second window in bedroom #4 is not needed for light and ventilation between but not for egress. Applicant noted that several options were considered for the window placement, need to pitch the roof at the rear of the house, cannot place window there, proposed location seemed appropriate to balance the light and ventilation in the bedroom. Further discussion: emergency egress windows are not correctly shown on plans, single-hung windows in bedroom #2 and #3 do not appear to meet emergency egress requirements, may need to be changed. CA Anderson noted that the Commission cannot approve what is not shown on the plans, approval must be based on the house to be built according to the correct plans. Commission noted that the porch on proposed and previous plans is not consistent, extra foam pieces were added but not clouded as a change; applicant noted that foam trim pieces were added to the porch and to the corners of the building, foam appears as columns on front porch or front elevation drawings. There were no further comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed. Commission discussion: plans need to be shown with correct egress windows, all new foam trim should be clouded, new window in bedroom fits in well and is small, have not asked to remove windows for privacy in other projects, window is appropriate as shown. C. Deal made a motion to place this item on the consent calendar for action when the stated revisions have been made to the plans and plan checked. The motion was seconded by C. Dreiling. Comment on the motion: Commission asked if it would be possible to eliminate one windows in the bedroom and increase the size of the remaining window? Commission noted that the second window doesn't seem to be a problem, it is already built, not convinced that throwing a window away is the solution, do not like the situation, would've rather seen these changes earlier before the changes were made in the field, loss of privacy from window is much less than privacy impact of the previously approved balcony, does not feel that this is an onset of lawlessness, would like to see accurate plans, do not want to see this situation again, would not want to increase size of window, second bedroom window adds synunetry, eliminating the balcony is an asset, the process used to add the second window is wrong, window should have been shown on plans before it was built project amended, conditions should be followed, these changes are ok, but the changes could have just as easily resulted in a bad design, need to have a better system to have construction checked in field to make sure the house is being built according to the approved plans. Chairman Luzuriaga called for a voice vote on the motion to place this item on the May 14, 2001, consent calendar or whenever the completed information has been submitted, checked by staff and there is room on the agenda.

Senior Planner Brooks and Commission discussed the report, reviewed criteria and Planning Department comments. Four conditions were suggested for consideration. Comtnission noted that the FAR in the staff report at one point is listed as 3020 SF, should be 3335 SF. There were no further questions of staff. Chairman Luzuriaga opened the public hearing. Mark Robertson, 135 Arroyo Court, San Mateo, project designer, noted that he kept the same design as was previously reviewed, but made the garage detached, was mindful of neighbor to the right, kept the driveway where it now is to separate from neighbor. Commissioners asked: on south facade, it seems that there is an easy way to break up the mass by cantilevering the stair from the landing up, would help the mass, realize there is a landscape buffer on that side. The applicant noted that he is willing to make that change, would like to see it as a condition because he is on a tight time line. Public Comment: Ann Marie Flores, 1436 Bernal Avenue, notes that this as a custom home designed for the lot, why does it need variances; understand construction will keep happening, on this block there is an elementary school and lots of construction traffic, could the block be designated a construction zone to reduce traffic problems; design meant to fit in with neighborhood but will look like a new home, can we request a plaque noting the date of construction; would like clarification on the plans, states it is set back further than average, but will line up with house next door, appears this is the average of the block. Commissioners response: the requested increase in height is a special permit, not a variance, allows for a more traditional roof slope, can be granted based on architectural character; the request for a construction zone should be made to the Public Works; Traffic Engineering; hope with this design and review, the date of construction is not apparent as it is with 1970's vintage construction. Planning staff noted that the block average is based on the setbacks on the entire length of the block, in this average case is 19'-10", proposed setback is 27'-6". Mary Packard, 1445 Bernal Avenue, would like to thank applicant for efforts on revisions to plans, need to provide architectural consistency with neighborhood, house on one side is 2100 SF, one on other side is 1200 SF, do not mind if it is big, just that it is not in our face; would like the project flipped so the bulk is in the back, not in the front, even if garage is attached toward the back; understand privacy is a sensitive issue, but thought it could be addressed. There were no further comments and the public hearing was closed. Commissioner comment: as a point of clarification, there are quite a few gestures in this design toward a traditional style, this avoids it being a"70s" house, in terms of whether it is flipped, need to understand that the front steps back alot, the part that does come forward has a small scale; if the stairwell is popped out on the south side it might offer relief; do not think rooms should be rearranged, has a traditional arrangement; project is in keeping with the neighborhood. C. Vistica moved to approve the application, by resolution, with the following conditions: 1) that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department date stamped August 4, 2000, sheets 1 through 4, Approved Minutes -7- an�i tliat any changes to the footprint or floor area of the building shall require an amendment to this permit; 2) that any changes to the size or envelope of the first or second floors, which would include adding or enlarging a dormer(s), moving or changing windows and architectural features or changing the plate height, roof height, or pitch, shall be subject to design review; 3) that the conditions of the City Engineer's July 24, 2000 memo shall be met; 4) that the stairwell on the south elevation shall be redesigned so that it projects from the landing up as a cantilevered bay and breaks up the long south side of the house; and 5) that the project shall meet all the requirements of the California Building and Fire Codes, 1998 edition, as amended by the City of Burlingame.

The meeting was reconvened at 9:50 p.m. 1441 BERNAL AVENUE - ZONED R-1 - APPLICATION FOR SPECIAL PERMIT FOR AN ATTACHED GARAGE AND DESIGN REVIEW FOR A FIRST AND SECOND STORY ADDITION TO AN EXISTING SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCE. (LINDA FRYE, OWNER; MARK ROBERTSON, APPLICANT AND DESIGNER) CP Monroe briefly presented the staff report. Noted letter from Mary Packard, 1445 Bernal, commenting on proposed project, date stamped June 23, 2000. There were no questions about the project from the Commission. Chairman Luzuriaga opened the public comment. Mark Robertson, designer, 135 Arroyo Court, represented the project. He noted that this project is an almost exact copy of the project at 526 Marin which the commission approved: It has an attached garage, the new owner is a single woman and wants an attached garage because she feels safer. Commissioner noted the garage is a problem, it detracts from the neighborhood character, good proportion and window trim; this neighborhood is safe, do not feel that safety is an issue. Initially felt "no way" but looked around neighborhood and there are a few houses with attached garages at the rear, like the design it flows well, the way the garages are set works well with the design, the first garage is setback 27 feet the second 30 feet, in this case the garage blends in. Agree, although the predominant pattern is detached garages, but some variation is positive and if this one is attached at the front it will be a way to see how this works after it is built. What landscaping and tree planting are you planning. Designer noted plans do not address backyard and there will be no change, the front yard will be lawn. Suggest larger scale shrubs at the front. Many cities have regulations which require staggered garage doors when they are at the front of the house, in this case it would look better without the extra off set, the lumps call attention to the garages. Speaking on the project were; Mary Packard 1445 Bernal; Mary Napp, 1452 Bernal Avenue; Victor Pucktran, 1436 Bernal; asked what to do about the fact that the plans show the neighbor's property line running down the middle of the wall which her survey shows is wholly on her property. CE noted that before the applicant submits plans for a building permit he must survey the property and set the property corners which will define the lot. Commissioner noted that if his survey does not correspond to hers, she built the fence in good faith. CE noted that this would be a private survey and the city does not approve them or participate in them, they are done by licensed engineers for that reason; conflicts between surveys are usually resolved by arbitration or litigation and tend to be very technical. He suggested that the neighbor submit a copy of her survey to the Planning Department. Ms. Packard also asked that the commission preserve the space between her home and the new one; expressed concern about the investment she had made in landscaping along the wa11 which would not survive with the shade created by the new building, the bedroom windows of the new house face her kitchen; if the house is to be occupied by a single woman why does she need two garages, the garage should be attached at the rear to provide a driveway to separate their two properties and increase privacy. Lot of residents here from Bernal, this is one story being replaced by 3000 SF, this is a monster house, will start a citizen committee to push for a moratorium on such houses; if the Planning Commission cannot keep their neighborhood in tact then they will; remodel does not mean remove all the house except one wall; would like to keep it with the same facade as before, would like a garage at the rear. Commissioner noted that the commissioners valued her comments more than she realizes, hope she is not here because of something that happened two years ago, because two years ago did not have design review, design guidelines show detached garages at the rear so houses will not extend across a property from side setback to side setback line. Lived in neighborhood 13 years, want the remodel to keep the present style; the garage in the front will detract from the neighborhood, did a remodel�himself with at detached garage; need a good review of vegetation, should plant all around the house. There were no further comments from the floor and the comment period was closed. � City ofBu,rlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Min:ites June 26, 2000 Cornrnissioner comment: biggest concern is the garage which projects out 11 feet to the front, prefer a detached garage or attached at the rear where it is less prominent. Agree, neighborhood deserves a detached garage to increase privacy and setback; house has a small entry with lots of garage; the flat. roof at the top makes it look as if the roof is not resolved, can ask for a special permit for height to address such a problem; first floor plate should be reduced from 10 to 9 feet; on the south elevation the gable projection with window accentuates the height, should be revised; the rear deck is too large, 13' x 13', high above neighbors place for people to congregate, should be reduced to 3' x 5' so cannot be used for gatherings; mature vegetation on the left side should be preserved and the trees at the rear protected during construction and after. In this area need a two car garage, no on street parking, need extra space; design is nice, agree that flat roof needs to be completed and special permit would be appropriate; balcony should be removed; these are small lots so the issue of the visual access from the kitchen on one property to the bedrooms on the other should be addressed with window coverings and good judgement among people; important to protect mature landscaping, need to add landscaping along the sides to break up the side wall of the house. C. Dreiling noted with this design a detached garage would also allow the front porch to be extended; the attached garage is all right but the pattern in the neighborhood is detached, move to refer this item to the design reviewer with the comments made by the commission for the reviewer to work with the applicant to reach a reasonable conclusion. Motion was seconded by C. Bojues. Comments on the motion: design should consider the next door neighbor in placement of windows, absolutely there should be a detached garage; if one is to have an attached garage this is the way to do it, but the public testimony is clear to call for a detached garage; privacy is a balance between eliminating blank walls and the placement of windows. Chairman Luzuriaga called for a roll call vote on the motion to refer this item to the design reviewer. The motion passed on a 6-1 (C. Keighran dissenting) vote. The CA noted that the applicant should try to resolve the property line issue with the neighbor without doing a separate land survey. The action of the commission is advisory and the item is not appealable. This item concluded at 10:25 p.m. ADDI ON (JEN A AND WENDY VE-1 A, OWNERSI IQB O A.

Addition of a 2"a master bedroom window on the north elevation During the course of construction it became clear that anyone standing on upper deck would compromise the privacy of several neighbors. The decision was made to eliminate the deck, which tlle design review board didn't like in the 15� place. In eliminating the deck we lost a french door in the master bedroom. 'This door was required for egress, light and ventilation. A 2'6" x 4'6" casement window was added on the north elevation to meet code. We felt by adding the window in the location we did we would provide the most privacy possible for the neighbor. This window has caused concern by the adjacent neighbor. See attached photos of window location and views from that window. 2. Trim addition We added trim to enhance the esthetic of the house aii:er consultation with contractor, designer and owner. This architectural trim has been added to tlie drawings for your review. Also see attached pictures & new plan. 3. Driveway approach "The neiglibor is concenied that new driveway approacli differs from the plaii. The set approach was installed imder the guidelines, specification and supervision of tlie Burlingaine Public Works Department, as this is city property. (See pictures) We know new construction can be amloying and stressful to the neighbors, with that in mind, we have moved as fast as possible to finish our project in a timely manner. We hope the result will blend into and improve the existing neighborhood and be appreciated. The house we replaced was an original 1930's bungalow with no upgrades or updates, and full of rats.

RECEIVED J U L 3 1 2000 CITY OF f3URLINGAME PLANNING DEPT. I have visited the site, the street and the surrounding neighborhood and have reviewed the re-submitted plans dated July 19 for the second story addition/remodeling. I have reviewed the Planning Commission's concerns on the first submittal. The following comments pertain to the resubmitted plans in relationship to the design guidelines. 1 CompatibilitXof the architectural stvle with that of the existing nei�hborhood: • There are many different styles represented in this neighborhood. • The design style proposed is not out of character with the neighborhood. 2 Respect the Parking and Gara�e Patterns in the Neighborhood: • There are two examples of large new homes on this street with double garage doors facing the street, that are inappropriate to the neighborhood scale. • The attached garage proposed in the first submittal has been eliminated and a detached 1 car garage in the rear proposed. This is more in keeping with the neighborhood pattern and improves the streetscape. • The garage structure is simple and matches the style, materials and roof slopes of the proposed house. 3_ Architectural 5t.� Mass and Bulk of the Structure and Internal Consistency of the Desi n. • The revised floor plan is significantly different from the original submittal. Family room and ground floor deck have been enlarged. Entry porch has been added, and other rooms changed. In general it seems a well organized and efficient layout that makes sense. • The house has been narrowed to allow the e�sting driveway to remain. • Upper floor rear deck has been reduced in size and tucked in between the master bath and master bedroom and behind the roof slope. Front upper deck remains. This seems to respond positively to the Commission's concerns. • Roof slopes have been revised and flat roof area has been eliminated. This seems logical and is an improvement. • First floor plate height has been reduced to 9' which reduces the bulk of the structure. • Windows are consistent in overall design and trim and are attractive, however there seems to be some confusion of fully gridded windows versus half gridded windows. • Detailing of the gables seems to be consistent—I would suggest adding a similar vent to the west elevation upper left gable at the rear of the house. • The design of the entry porch could be improved. The stick columns and the single door seem too small and spindly for the bulk of the roof. The roof shape is pleasing, but I would suggest stucco partial height wa11s or railing around the porch, heavier columns (possibly stucco), a recess for the door, other small windows, or other devices to give a more solid look that is more in scale with the porch roof and the rest of the house. 4 Interface of the Proposed Structure with the Adjacent Structures to Each Side: • The revised plans are an improvement over the original submittal. The added driveway width separates this house more from the neighboring house. • Window placement and sizes appear to be a good balance of minimizing disruption to the neighbors, while avoiding blank e�erior walls. It is difficult to know exactly where the dining room and bedroom windows will line up with the house to the right. It appears that they will face a portion of blank wall of the adjoining house. Since there are two driveways together, I think there is adequate separation. • Because of the slope of the street to the south, the roof slopes, the double driveway on the north and the eXisting vegetation to remain, this house will have minimal impact on sunlight for the neighbors. The sun orientation to the structures and to their relative heights and massing are a fortunate circumstance. 5 Landscapi� and Its Proportion to the Mass and Bulk of Structural Comnonents: • No detailed landscape plan has been submitted, however the overall concept seems logical. Care should be taken in selection of trees and plantings to be used. Summarv: 1. It is my opinion that these revised plans respond very well to the Commission's concerns. 2. Recommend approval of the overall concept. High quality detailing and materials and colors will be important. 3. Recommend additional design effort be spent on redesign of the front porch and entry door area, as noted above. Jerry L.

Item # � G% Consent Calendar City of Burlingame Design Review Amendment Address: 1441 Bernal Avenue Meeting Date: OS/29/O1 Request: Design review amendment for a new, two-story single family residence with a detached garage at 1441 Bernal Avenue, zoned R-1 (C.S. 25.28.040) Property Owner: Linda Frye Applicant: Ralph Domenici APN: 026-044-100 Designer: Mark Robertson Lot Area: 6,000 SF General Plan Designation: Low Density Residential 7.flning: R 1 Date Submitted: Apri15, 2001 CEQA Status: Article 19. Categorically Exempt per Section: 15303 - Class 3- construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures including (a) single-family residences not in conjunction with the building of two or more such units. In urbanized areas, up to three single-family residences may be constructed or converted under this exemption. May 14, 2001 Planning Commission Meeting: On May 14, 2001, the Planning Commission reviewed this project for an amendment to design review (see attached 5/14/O1 Planning Commission minutes). A neighbor called this item off of the consent calendar to express concern that the existing curb cut was replaced and the new curb cut overlaps two feet into the right-of-way in front of her house. The Planning Commission asked the City Engineer to look into this issue and report back to them at the May 29, 2001 meeting. The attached May 17, 2001 memo from the City Engineer states that the Department of Public Works inspected the new driveway approach at 1441 Bernal Avenue and found that it meets all Public Works standards. One wing of the driveway approach does extend approximately 1.2 feet toward the frontage of adjacent property to the north, however this is within the City's right-of-way and was done in order to align the driveway approach with the driveway at 1441 Bernal Avenue. Apri123, 2001 Planning Commission Meeting: On Apri123, 2001, the Planning Commission reviewed this project for an amendment to design review (see attached 4/23/O1 Planning Commission minutes). Concerns expressed by the Planning Commission included the following: • emergency egress windows for bedrooms #2 and #3 are not shown correctly on plans; and • extra foam pieces and trim added to elevations but not clouded as changes on the plans. Current Project Revisions (May 1, 2001 plans): After the Apri123, 2001, Planning Commission meeting, the applicant submitted revised plans (date stamped May 1, 2001). The following revisions were made: • all changes to the plans from the originally approved design review project have been noted with those items clouded on the revised set of drawings. The Commission expressed concern that the windows in bedrooms #2 and #3 did not appear to meet egress requirements and may need to be changed. Deputy Chief Inspector Tom McGovern confirmed that based on field inspections, as presently constructed both of these bedrooms have a window with a 5.7 SF opening which meets egress requirements. Design Review Amendment 1441 Bernal Avenue Current Request : This project is being returned to the Commission because Conditions #1 and #2 have not been met. The structure that has been built differs from that shown on the plans approved by the Planning Commission on August 28, 2000: the rear second floor deck and French doors were removed, a window was added on the north elevation, a small gable was added at the rear, an access door was added along the south elevation along with changes to the architectural features. None of the changes result in a special or conditional use perniit or variance . History: On August 28, 2000, the Planning Commission granted approval for a design review and special permit for height to allow the construction of a new two-story house with a detached garage at 1441 Bernal Avenue. A special pernut for height was approved to allow a height of 32'-3" where 30'-0" is the maximum height allowed. It was reported to the Planning Departrnent by a neighbor that the project at 1441 Bernal Avenue was not being constructed as it was approved by the Planning Commission. Deputy Chief Building Inspector Tom McGovern went out to the site and found that there were changes made to the structure in the field that were not shown on the plans (date stamped 8/4/00) that were originally approved by the Planning Commission on 8/28/00. The changes made to the design include: • The rear second floor deck, off of the master bedroom along the south side of the property, has been eliminated. With the elimination of this deck, came the removal of the French doors leading out onto the deck which served as fire egress for the master bedroom. However, there is an existing 2'-6" X 4'-6" casement window in the master bedroom along the north elevation that meets the fire egress requirement. In order to meet the Building Code requirement for light and ventilation (10% of the room area = 25.4 SF) another 2'-6" X 4'-6" casement window was added along the north elevation that matches the existing casement window along this elevation. The elimination of the deck resulted in the addition of a roof element in between the existing gables over the master bedroom and master bathroom. • Stucco foam trim has been added at the base of the building at the front and rear, and vertical trim that extends up from the base trim to the eaves has been added at the right front building corner, and the left and right rear building corners. The base trim wraps around to the chimney along the south side, and wraps around to the beginning of the dining room along the north side. Stucco foam trim has also been added underneath the north side window of bedroom number three on the second floor, and around the front porch. • A 3'-0" X 8'-0" door has been added along the south elevation to allow access to the water heater that was originally proposed to be located in the attic. Because of the weight of the water heater, it was relocated to an area underneath of the stairs. An exterior door is needed for access to the water heater. • It was also reported to the City that the driveway approach has changed from that which was originally approved. The curb cut area is not within the subject property line boundaries but it is in the City right-of-way. The concrete for the driveway approach was poured in accordance with the requirements of the Public Works Department. The project has not had a final inspection, but Ed Chung, with the Department of Public Works visited the site prior to the pour and noted that all City requirements were being met. When this project originally went through the Design Review process, it was referred to a design review consultant. The revised plans have not been submitted to a design reviewer. The final analysis from the design 2 Design Review Amendment 1441 Bernal Avenue reviewer on the original project is attached. A copy of the originally approved plans, along with the revised plans, are included for your review.

Staff Comments: See attached. Please see the City Engineer's May 17, 2001 memo stating that the new driveway approach meets the standards for the Department of Public Works. Design Review Criteria: The criteria for design review as established in Ordinance No. 1591 adopted by the Council on Apri120, 1998 are outlined as follows: Compatibility of the architectural style with that of the existing character of the neighborhood; 2. Respect for the parking and garage patterns in the neighborhood; 3. Architectural style and mass and bulk of structure; 4. Interface of the proposed structure with the structures on adjacent properties; and 5. Landscaping and its proportion to mass and bulk of structural components. 3 • • � Design Review Amendment 1441 Bernal Avenue Findings: Based on the findings stated in the attached minutes of the Planning Commission's April 23, 2001, meeting, the project (as altered from the plans approved on August 28, 2000) , with the second window added along the north elevation, adds symmetry to this portion of the building and fits in well, privacy is provided by a large tree, and the elimination of the rear second floor deck is an asset since it increases the neighbor's privacy by eliminating direct views into three rear yards and the enclosure blends into the architectural style of the house, and so the revisions are found to be compatible with the requirements of the City's five design review guidelines. Planning Commission Action: The Planning Commission should hold a public hearing. Affirmative action should be made by resolution and should include findings. The reasons for any action should be clearly stated. At the public hearing the following conditions should be considered: that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Deparhnent date stamped May 1, 2001, Sheets 1 through 4, reflecting the following changes from the August 4, 2000, plans previously approved: the elimination of the rear second floor deck and French doors off of the master bedroom along the south side of the property, the addition of a 2'-6" X 4'-6" casement window in the master bedroom along the north elevation, the addition of a small gable over the master bedroom and master bathroom at the rear, the addition of a 3'-0" X 8'-0" access door along the south elevation and changes to the architectural features with the addition of stucco foam trim to the elevations; 2, that any changes to the footprint or floor area of the building shall require and amendment to this permit; 3. that any changes to size or envelope of the first or second floors, which would include adding or enlarging a dormer(s) or changing the roof height or pitch, shall be subject to design review; 4. that the conditions of City Engineer's July 24, 2000 memos shall be met; that the stairwell on the south elevation shall be redesigned so that it projects from the landing up as a cantilevered bay and breaks up the long south side of the house; and 6. that the project shall meet all the requirements of the California Building and Fire Codes, 1998 edition, as amended by the City of Burlingame.

C. Auran was noted as abstaining from this action since it was on the consent calendar and he had not been on the commission when the items was originally reviewed. There were no questions about the application from the Planning Commission. Chauman Vistica opened the public hearing. Mary Packard, 1445 Bernal Avenue, who called the item off the consent calendar and commented that she was unclear about whether the occupancy permit had been issued to this property, but it was being shown for sale this week end, is this legal. The CA noted that there is no relationship between showing a property or selling it and the occupancy permit; this hearing is regarding corrections that may be needed to be made to the property. She expressed a concern that the curb cut was replaced and it overlaps two feet on to the right-of-way in front of her house. CE noted that he would have to look into this and report back about the situation. The chairman then recognized Ralph Domenici, 510 Almer Road, contractor and applicant for 1441 Bernal Avenue. He noted that the plans showed that the approach to the driveway would need to be replaced and the forms were installed and inspected by the Public Works Deparhnent; the area where the driveway approach is located' is public right-of-way and the city has authority over what occurs there. He noted that at the last meeting he did not take the opportunity to apologize to the staff and Commission for not getting the paperwork on the changes to this project in before the work was done on the house. CE asked if the 3 City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes '� ION FOR DESIGN REVIEW )NSTRUCTION & DESIGN, AP TY OWNERS) (CONTINU ' T� , T� widening of the approach in the right-of-way was directed by city staff; the applicant noted that it was. C� noted that he would ask staff what the issues were. There were no more comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed. Commission comment: feel that if something is encroaching in front of a neighbor's property Commission should at least review the circumstances by continuing the item 2 weeks so staff can look into it. CA noted that it is possible that a change was required in the curb cut to meet city requirements since it was being installed on city property. Feel that the plans aze now complete and would be comfortable acting on them; would be willing to proceed if this were a regular project, but this one was changed without proper approvals, would like to wait until we see if the approach and curb-cut is OK or needs to be changed. � C. Bojues agree that we need to get the information on the driveway approach and curb cut from the City Engineer so we have all the information before commission acts, move to continue this item for two weeks to the next Planning Commission meeting, May 29, 2001. The motion was seconded by C. Osterling. Comment on the Motion: are the property line monuments clear on the site, feel we should continue this item in order to get all the information. Chairman Vistica called for a voice vote on the motion to continue this item for two weeks in order to get more information from the City Engineer. The motion passed on a 6-0-0-1 (C.

Chairman Luzuriaga made a motion to send this proj ect to a design reviewer with the commission's directions and noted that when the modified project returns to the commission for consideration story poles which outline the ridgelines of the new construction and document the location of the stair structure at the front should be included so that the neighbors can take photographs to document for the commission the impact of the proposed construction on the views from inside the living areas of their houses. The motion was seconded by C. Vistica. Chairman Luzuriaga called for a voice vote on the motion to send the project to a design reviewer with direction and to install story poles before subsequent commission review of the modified design. The motion passed on a 7-0 voice vote. This item is not appealable.

City Planner presented the report, reviewed criteria and Planning Department comments. Five conditions were suggested for consideration. Commission had no questions of staff. Chairman Luzuriaga opened the public hearing. Mark Robertson, designer, and Ralph Domenici, applicant, noted that they would be available to answer questions. Commission asked if the window in bedroom #3 meets egress requirements; applicant noted that Anderson has special hardware for casement windows, windows will be casement, not double-hung, will correct plans to show casement windows. Commission comment: design review was approved for these plans, need to know that more FAR is not being added with change, feel that proposed changes help the project, removal of the deck at the rear of the house provides privacy for the neighbors; have different opin.ion, feel that changes do not help the project. How did the changes happen? Applicant noted that the changes occurred during constnzction, previous plans had a deck which looked into neighbors' yards, felt that this was not appropriate, deck and loss of privacy was an issue in previous Commission review, thought that adding a window in bedroom #4 would have little impact on the neighbor. Mary Packard, 1445 Berna1 Avenue, and Viktor Pochron, 1436 Bernal Avenue, addressed the Commission with the following concerns: plans were approved with the condition that the building be built according to the plans approved by the Commission, contractor deviated from the approved plans, contractor has expressed that there is no one in city government who can stop him, contractor needs to abide by the law, this action is illegal and should not be ap�reo�vent and createawlessness, curb cut was moged by three f et c o n s t r u c t i o n d u m p s t e r, t l u s v� n l l c a u s e a p r towards her property, this action invalidates city's building process; generally happy with the construction 5 � ' . . . . _ . _ - . . ., - \... City of Burlingame Planning Commission Unapproved Minutes Apri123, 2001 of the house, not too happy with the changes, surprised that window was added iri the bedroom, will closely watch contractor if he is to build house at 1433 Bernal Avenue, this house was reviewed twice by the Commission, would like to have house built as on approved plans, happy with the removal of the deck, adding a window was inconsiderate. Staff noted that the second window in bedroom #4 is not needed for light and ventilation between but not for egress. Applicant noted that several options were considered for the window placement, need to pitch the roof at the rear of the house, cannot place window there, proposed location seemed appropriate to balance the light and ventilation in the bedroom. Further discussion: emergency egress windows are not correctly shown on plans, single-hung windows in bedroom #2 and #3 do not appear to meet emergency egress requirements, may need to be changed. CA Anderson noted that the Commission cannot approve what is not shown on the plans, approval must be based on the house to be built according to the correct plans. Commission noted that the porch on proposed and previous plans is not consistent, extra foam pieces were added but not clouded as a change; applicant noted that foam trim pieces were added to the porch and to the corners of the building, foam appears as columns on front porch or front elevation drawings. There were no further comments from the floor and the public hearing was closed. Commission discussion: plans need to be shown with correct egress windows, all new foam trim should be clouded, new window in bedroom fits in well and is small, have not asked to remove windows for privacy in other projects, window is appropriate as shown. C. Deal made a motion to place this item on the consent calendar for action when the stated revisions have been made to the plans and plan checked. The motion was seconded by C. Dreiling. Comment on the motion: Commission asked if it would be possible to eliminate one windows in the bedroom and increase the size of the remaining window? Commission noted that the second window doesn't seem to be a problem, it is akeady built, not convinced that throwing a window away is the solution, do not like the situation, would've rather seen these changes earlier before the changes were made in the field, loss of privacy from window is much less than privacy impact of the previously approved balcony, does not feel that this is an onset of lawlessness, would like to see accurate plans, do not want to see this situation again, would not want to increase size of window, second bedroom window adds symmetry, eliminating the balcony is an asset, the process used to add the second window is wrong, window should have been shown on plans before it was built project amended, conditions should be followed, these changes are ok, but the changes could have just as easily resulted in a bad design, need to have a better system to have construction checked in field to make sure the house is being built according to the approved plans. Chairman Luzuriaga called for a voice vote on the motion to place this item on the May 14, 2001, consent calendar or whenever the completed information has been submitted, checked by staff and there is room on the agenda. The motion passed on a voice vote 7-0. The Planning Commission's action is advisory and not appealable.

Senior Planner Brooks and Commission discussed the report, reviewed criteria and Planriing Department comments. Four conditions were suggested for consideration. Commission noted that the FAR in the staff report at one point is listed as 3020 SF, should be 3335 SF. There were no further questions of staff. Chairman Luzuriaga opened the public hearing. Mark Robertson, 135 Airoyo Court, San Mateo, project designer, noted that he kept the same design as was previously reviewed, but made the garage detached, was mindful of neighbor to the right, kept the driveway where it now is to separate from neighbor. Commissioners asked: on south facade, it seems that there is an easy way to break up the mass by cantilevering the stair from the landing up, would help the mass, realize there is a landscape buffer on that side. The applicant noted that he is willing to make that change, would like to see it as a condition because he is on a tight time line. Public Comment: Ann Marie Flores, 1436 Bernal Avenue, notes that this as a custom home designed for the lot, why does it need variances; understand construction will keep happening, on this block there is an elementary school and lots of construction traffic, could the block be designated a construction zone to reduce traffic problems; design meant to fit in with neighborhood but will look like a new home, can we request a plaque noting the date of construction; would like clarification on the plans, states it is set back further than average, but will line up with house next door, appears this is the average of the block. Commissioners response: the requested increase in height is a special permit, not a variance, allows for a more traditional roof slope, can be granted based on architectural character; the request for a construction zone should be made to the Public Works; Traffic Engineering; hope with this design and review, the date of construction is not apparent as it is with 1970's vintage construction. Planning staffnoted that the block average is based on the setbacks on the entire length of the block, in this average case is 19'-10", proposed setback is 27'-6". Mary Packard, 1445 Bernal Avenue, would like to thank applicant for efforts on revisions to plans, need to provide architectural consistency with neighborhood, house on one side is 2100 SF, one on other side is 1200 SF, do not mind if it is big, just that it is not in our face; would like the project flipped so the bulk is in the back, not in the front, even if garage is attached toward the back; understand privacy is a sensitive issue, but thought it could be addressed. There were no further comments and the public hearing was closed. Commissioner comment: as a point of clarification, there are quite a few gestures in this design toward a traditional style, this avoids it being a"70s" house, in terms of whether it is flipped, need to understand that the front steps back alot, the part that does come forward has a small scale; if the stairwell is popped out on the south side it might offer relief; do not think rooms should be rearranged, has a traditional anangement; project is in keeping with the neighborhood. C. Vistica moved to approve the application, by resolurion, with the following conditions: 1) that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department date stamped August 4, 2000, sheets 1 through 4, Approved Minutes -7- and that any changes to the footprint or floor area of the building shall require an amendment to this permit; 2) that any changes to the size or envelope of the first or second floors, which would include adding or enlarging a dormer(s), moving or changing windows and architectural features or changing the plate height, roof height, or pitch, shall be subject to design review; 3) that the conditions of the City Engineer's July 24, 2000 memo shall be met; 4) that the stairwell on the south elevation shall be redesigned so that it projects from the landing up as a cantilevered bay and breaks up the long south side of the house; and 5) that the project shall meet all the requirements of the California Building and Fire Codes, 1998 edition, as amended by the City of Burlingame.

The meeting was reconvened at 9:50 p.m. 1441 BERNAL AVENUE - ZONED R-1 - APPLICATION FOR SPECIAL PERMIT FOR AN ATTACHED GARAGE AND DESIGN REVIEW FOR A FIRST AND SECOND STORY ADDITION TO AN EXISTING SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCE. (LINDA FRYE, OWNER; MARK ROBERTSON, APPLICANT AND DESIGNER) CP Monroe briefly presented the staffreport. Noted letter from Mary Packard, 1445 Bernal, commenting on proposed project, date stamped June 23, 2000. There were no questions about the project from the Commission. Chairman Luzuriaga opened the public comment. Mark Robertson, designer, 135 Arroyo Court, represented the project. He noted that this project is an almost exact copy of the project at 526 Marin which the commission approved: It has an attached garage, the new owner is a single woman and wants an attached garage because she feels safer. Comrnissioner noted the garage is a problem, it detracts from the neighborhood character, good proportion and window trim; this neighborhood is safe, do not feel that safety is an issue. Initially felt "no way" but looked around neighborhood and there are a few houses with attached garages at the rear, like the design it flows well, the way the garages are set works well with the design, the first garage is setback 27 feet the second 30 feet, in this case the garage blends in. Agree, although the predominant pattern is detached garages, but some variation is positive and if this one is attached at the front it will be a way to see how this works after it is built. What landscaping and tree planting are you planning. Designer noted plans do not address backyard and there will be no change, the front yard will be lawn. Suggest larger scale shrubs at the front. Many cities have regulations which require staggered garage doors when they are at the front of the house, in this case it would look better without the extra off set, the lumps call attention to the garages. Speaking on the project were; Mary Packard 1445 Bernal; Mary Napp, 1452 Bernal Avenue; Victor Pucktran, 1436 Berna1; asked what to do about the fact that the plans show the neighbor's property line running down the middle of the wall which her survey shows is wholly on her property. CE noted that before the applicant submits plans for a building pernut he must survey the property and set the property corners which will define the lot. Commissioner noted that if his survey does not correspond to hers, she built the fence in good faith. CE noted that this would be a private survey and the city does not approve them or participate in them, they are done by licensed engineers for that reason; conflicts between surveys are usually resolved by axbitration or litigation and tend to be very technical. He suggested that the neighbor submit a copy of her survey to the Planning Department. Ms. Packard also asked that the commission preserve the space between her home and the new one; expressed concern about the investment she had made in landscaping along the wall which would not survive with the shade created by the new building, the bedroom windows of the new house face her kitchen; if the house is to be occupied by a single woman why does she need two garages, the gazage should be attached at the rear to provide a driveway to separate their two properties and increase privacy. Lot of residents here from Bernal, this is one story being replaced by 3000 SF, this is a monster house, will start a citizen committee to push for a moratorium on such houses; if the Planning Commission cannot keep their neighborhood in tact then they will; remodel does not mean remove all the house except one wall; would like to keep it with the same facade as before, would like a garage at the rear. Commissioner noted that the commissioners valued her comments more than she realizes, hope she is not here because of something that happened two years ago, because two years ago did not have design review, design guidelines show detached garages at the rear so houses will not extend across a property from side setback to side setback line. Lived in neighborhood 13 years, want the remodel to keep the present style; the garage in the front will detract from the neighborhood, did a remodel�himself with at detached garage; need a good review of vegetation, should plant all around the house. There were no further comments from the floor and the comment period was closed. � City of Burlingame P[unning Commission Unapproved Minutes June 26, 2000 Commissioner comment: biggest concern is the garage which projects out 11 feet to the front, prefer a detached garage or attached at the rear where it is less prominent. Agree, neighborhood deserves a detached garage to increase privacy and setback; house has a small entry with lots of garage; the flat roof at the top makes it look as if the roof is not resolved, can ask for a special permit for height to address such a problem; first floor plate should be reduced from 10 to 9 feet; on the south elevation the gable projection with window accentuates the height, should be revised; the rear deck is too large, 13' x 13', high above neighbors place for people to congregate, should be reduced to 3' x 5' so cannot be used for gatherings; mature vegetation on the left side should be preserved and the trees at the rear protected during construction and after. In this area need a two car garage, no on street parking, need extra space; design is nice, agree that flat roof needs to be completed and special permit would be appropriate; balcony should be removed; these are small lots so the issue of the visual access from the kitchen on one property to the bedrooms on the other should be addressed with window coverings and good judgement among people; important to protect mature landscaping, need to add landscaping along the sides to break up the side wall of the house. C. Dreiling noted with this design a detached garage would also allow the front porch to be extended; the attached garage is all right but the pattern in the neighborhood is detached, move to refer this item to the design reviewer with the comments made by the commission for the reviewer to work with the applicant to reach a reasonable conclusion. Motion was seconded by C. Bojues. Comments on the motion: design should consider the next door neighbor in placement of windows, absolutely there should be a detached garage; if one is to have an attached garage this is the way to do it, but the public testimony is clear to call for a detached garage; privacy is a balance between eliminating blank walls and the placement of windows. Chairman Luzuriaga called for a roll call vote on the motion to refer this item to the design reviewer. The motion passed on a 6-1 (C. Keighran dissenting) vote. The CA noted that the applicant should try to resolve the property line issue with the neighbor without doing a separate land survey. The action of the commission is advisory and the item is not appealable.

Addition of a 2"a master bedroom window on the north elevation 2 3 During the course of construction it became elear that anyone standing on upper deck would compromise ttie privacy of several neighbors. The decision was made to eliminate the deck, which the design review board didn't like in the 1s1 place. In eliminating the deck we lost a french door in the master bedroom. This door was required for egress, light and ventilation. A 2'6" x 4'6" casement window was added on the north elevation to meet code. We felt by adding the window in the localion we did we would provide the most privacy possible for the neighbor. This window has caused concern by the adjacent neighbor. See attached photos of window location and views from that window. Trim addition We added trim to enhance the esthetic of the house aner consultation with contractor, designer and owner. This architectural trim has been added to tlie drawings for your review. Also see attached pictures & new plan. Driveway approach The tleighbor is concerned that new driveway approach differs from the plan. The set approacli was installed under the guidelines, specification and supervision of the Burlingaine Public Works Depariment, as this is city property. (See pictures) We know new construction can be aiuioying and stressful to the neighbors, with that in mind, we have moved as fast as possible to finish our project in a timely maliner. We hope the result will blend into and improve the existing neighborhood and be appreciated. The house we replaced was an original 1930's bungalow with no upgrades or updates, and full of rats.

RECEIVED J U L 3 1 2000 CITY OF [3URLINGAME PLANNING DEPT. I have visited the site, the street and the surrounding neighborhood and have reviewed the re-submitted plans dated July 19 for the second story addition/remodeling. I have reviewed the Planning Commission's concerns on the first submittal. The following comments pertain to the resubmitted plans in relationship to the design guidelines. 1 Compatibilit�.of the architectural style with that of the existin� nei�hborhood: • There are many different styles represented in this neighborhood. • The design style proposed is not out of character with the neighborhood. 2 Respect the Parki� and Gara�e Patterns in the Nei�hborhood: • There are two examples of large new homes on this street with double garage doors facing the street, that are inappropriate to the neighborhood scale. • The attached garage proposed in the first submittal has been eliminated and a detached 1 car garage in the rear proposed. This is more in keeping with the neighborhood pattern and improves the streetscape. • The garage structure is simple and matches the style, materials and roof slopes of the proposed house. 3_ Architectural Style, Mass and Bulk of the Structure and Internal Consistencv of the Desi n. • The revised floor plan is significantly different from the original submittal. Family room and ground floor deck have been enlarged. Entry porch has been added, and other rooms changed. In general it seems a well organized and efficient layout that makes sense. • The house has been narrowed to allow the e�sting driveway to remain. • Upper floor rear deck has been reduced in size and tucked in between the master bath and master bedroom and behind the roof slope. Front upper deck remains. This seems to respond positively to the Commission's concerns. • Roof slopes have been revised and flat roof area has been eliminated. This seems logical and is an improvement. • First floor plate height has been reduced to 9' which reduces the bulk of the structure. • Windows are consistent in overall design and trim and are attractive, however there seems to be some confusion of fully gridded windows versus half gridded windows. • Detailing of the gables seems to be consistent—I would suggest adding a similar vent to the west elevation upper left gable at the rear of the house. • The design of the entry porch could be improved. The stick columns and the single door seem too small and spindly for the bulk of the roof. The roof shape is pleasing, but I would suggest stucco partial height walls or railing around the porch, heavier columns (possibly stucco), a recess for the door, other small windows, or other devices to give a more solid look that is more in scale with the porch roof and the rest of the house. 4 Interface of the Proposed Structure with the Adiacent Structures to Each Side: • The revised plans are an improvement over the original submittal. The added driveway width separates this house more from the neighboring house. • Window placement and sizes appear to be a good balance of minimizing disruption to the neighbors, while avoiding blank exterior walls. It is difficult to know exactly where the dining room and bedroom windows will line up with the house to the right. It appears that they will face a portion of blank wall of the adjoining house. Since there are two driveways together, I think there is adequate separation. • Because of the slope of the street to the south, the roof slopes, the double driveway on the north and the existing vegetation to remain, this house will have minimal impact on sunlight for the neighbors. The sun orientation to the structures and to their relative heights and massing are a fortunate circumstance. 5 Landscapin� and Its Proportion to the Mass and Bulk of Structural Components: No detailed landscape plan has been submitted, however the overall concept seems logical. Care should be talcen in selection of trees and plantings to be used. Summarv: 1. It is my opinion that these revised plans respond very well to the Commission's concerns. 2. Recommend approval of the overall concept. High quality detailing and materials and colors will be important. 3. Recommend additional design effort be spent on redesign of the front porch and entry door area, as noted above. Jerry L.

Categorically Exempt per Section: 15303 - Class 3- construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures including (a) single-family residences not in conjunction with the building of two or more such units. In urbanized areas, up to three single-family residences may be constructed or converted under this exemption. Apri123, 2001 Planning Commission Meeting: On Apri123, 2001, the Planning Commission reviewed this project for an amendment to design review (see attached 4/23/O1 Planning Commission minutes). Concerns expressed by the Planning Commission included the following: . • emergency egress windows for bedrooms #2 and #3 are not shown correctly on plans; and • extra foam pieces and trim added to elevations but not clouded as changes on the plans. Current Project Revisions (May 1, 2001 plans): After the Apri123, 2001, Planning Commission meeting, the applicant submitted revised plans (date stamped May 1, 2001). The following revisions were made: • all changes to the plans from the originally approved design review project have been noted with those items clouded on the revised set of drawings. The Commission expressed concern that the windows in bedrooms #2 and #3 did not appear to meet egress requirements and may need to be changed. Deputy Chief Inspector Tom McGovern confirmed that based on field inspections, as presently constructed both of these bedrooms have a window with a 5.7 SF opening which meets egress requirements. Current Request : This project is being returned to the Commission because Conditions #1 and #2 have not been met. The structure that has been built differs from that shown on the plans approved by the Planning. Commission on August 28, 2000: the rear second floor deck and French doors were removed, a window was added on the north elevation, a small gable was added at the rear, an access door was added along the south elevation along with changes to the architectural features. None of the changes result in a special or conditional use permit or variance . History: On August 28, 2000, the Planning Commission granted approval for a design review and special permit for height to allow the construction of a new two-story house with a detached garage at 1441 Bernal Avenue. A special permit for height was approved to allow a height of 32'-3" where 30'-0" is the maximum height allowed. Design Review Amendment 1441 Bernal Avenue It was reported to the Planning Department by a neighbor that the project at 1441 Bernal Avenue was not being constructed as it was approved by the Planning Commission. Deputy Chief Building Inspector Tom McGovern went out to the site and found that there were changes made to the structure in the field that were not shown on the plans (date stamped 8/4/00) that were originally approved by the Planning Commission on 8/28/00. The changes made to the design include: • The rear second floor deck, off of the master bedroom along the south side of the property, has been eliminated. With the elimination of this deck, came the removal of the French doors leading out onto the deck which served as fire egress for the master bedroom. However, there is an existing 2'-6" X 4'-6" casement window in the master bedroom along the north elevation that meets the fire egress requirement. In order to meet the Building Code requirement for light and ventilation (10% of the room area = 25.4 SF) another 2'-6" X 4'-6" casement window was added along the north elevation that matches the existing casement window along this elevation. The elimination of the deck resulted in the addition of a roof element in between the existing gables over the master bedroom and master bathroom. • Stucco foam trim has been added at the base of the building at the front and rear, and vertical trim that extends up from the base trim to the eaves has been added at the right front building corner, and the left and right rear building corners. The base trim wraps around to the chimney along the south side, and wraps around to the beginning of the dining room along the north side. Stucco foam trim has also been added underneath the north side window of bedroom number three on the second floor, and around the front porch. • A 3'-0" X 8'-0" door has been added along the south elevation to allow access to the water heater that was originally proposed to be located in the attic. Because of the weight of the water heater, it was relocated to an area underneath of the stairs. An exterior door is needed for access to the water heater. • It was also reported to the City that the driveway approach has changed from that which was originally approved. The curb cut area is not within the subject property line boundaries but it is in the City right-of-way. The concrete for the driveway approach was poured in accordance with the requirements of the Public Works Department. The project has not had a final inspection, but Ed Chung, with the Department of Public Works visited the site prior to the pour and noted that all City requirements were being met. When this project originally went through the Design Review process, it was referred to a design review consultant. The revised plans have not been submitted to a design reviewer. The final analysis from the design reviewer on the original project is attached. A copy of the originally approved plans, along with the revised plans, are included for your review.

Design Review Criteria: The criteria for design review as established in Ordinance No. 1591 adopted by the Council on Apri120, 1998 are outlined as follows: Compatibility of the architectural style with that of the existing character of the neighborhood; 2. Respect for the parking and garage patterns in the neighborhood; 3. Architectural style and mass and bulk of structure; 4. Interface of the proposed structure with the structures on adjacent properties; and 5. Landscaping and its proportion to mass and bulk of structural components. Findings: Based on the findings stated in the attached minutes of the Planning Commission's April 23, 2001, meeting, the project (as altered from the plans approved on August 28, 2000) , with the second window added along the north elevation, adds symmetry to this portion of the building and fits in well, and the elimination of the rear second floor deck is an asset, and is found to be compatible with the requirements of the City's five design review guidelines. 3 � ..

In urbanized areas, up to three single-family residences may be constructed or converted under this exemption. The Current Request: This project is being returned to the Commission because Conditions #1 and #2 have not been met.

A special permit for height was approved to allow a height of 32'-3" where 30'-0" is the maximum height allowed. It was reported to the Planning Department that the project at 1440 Bernal Avenue was not being constructed as it was approved by the Planning Commission. Chief Building Inspector Tom McGovern went out to the site and found that there were changes made to the structure in the field that were not shown on the plans (date stamped 8/4/00) that were approved by the Planning Department or Commission.

The changes made to the design include: • The rear second floor deck, off of the master bedroom along the south side of the properly, has been eliminated.

The elimination of the deck resulted in an added roof element in between the existing gables over the master bedroom and master bathroom. Design Review Amendment 1441 Bernal Avenue Stucco foam trim has been added at the base of the building at the front and rear, and vertical trim that extends up from the base trim to the eaves has been added at the right front building corner, and the left and right rear building corners. The base trim wraps around to the chimney along the south side, and wraps around to the beginning of the dining room along the north side. Stucco foam trim has also been added underneath the north side window of bedroom number three on the second floor, and around the front porch. • A 3'-0" X 8'-0" door has been added along the south elevation to allow access to the water heater that was originally proposed to be located in the attic.
