I would like to mention that the hedge I treasured was removed by a construction crew member during their construction (using a bobcat). I was yelling at him to stop but he took it right out. Unbelievable! I am friendly with my new neighbors but they never wanted the trees planted or anything else along the driveway. So we were basically out of luck. That was when I wrote to your dept. In the future, when I choose to sell my home, if the lack of privacy becomes an issue, that is when I will take action against any parties that do not correct the problem that has existed since the onset of this build. That means if my property value decreases due to this, I want to be compensated. No one in the Planning Dept. ever helped to correct our concern whatsoever, eight years ago or to date. Your current response is really saying "Go handle it" via some other means. This wasn't what I expected at all. I thought you would contact the owner and explain the situation to them. It is obvious we lost our privacy. It would be satisfactory if they planted some trees along the fence. Have a good day, Mary Nappi Sent from my Wad On Nov 6, 2014, at 3:31 PM, "CD/PLG-Gardiner, Kevin" <kgardiner@burlingame.org> wrote: Dear Ms. Nappi, Commissioner DeMartini contacted me about a correspondence you've had with him regarding the residence at 1456 Bernal Avenue. I've reviewed the file and wanted to report back to you. The existing single family dwelling and detached garage was approved by the Planning Commission on March 27, 2006, a building permit was issued on June 30, 2006, and the building permit was finaled on March 13, 2007. In reviewing the building permit site plan (attached) and the Planning Commission staff report (attached), the plan shows that three 15-gallon evergreen privacy trees were required to be planted at the rear of the driveway adjacent to the detached garage, alongside a 6-foot solid wood fence. Furthermore, a Condition of Approval was added by the Planning Commission requiring "that the existing hedge and ivy between this property and the property at 1452 Bernal Avenue shall not be disturbed or removed before, during or after construction; the existing hedge and ivy shall be adequately protected during construction." (copy of approval letter attached). Lastly, the plans show that escapalier vines with 12-inch cutouts and irrigation were required to be installed alongside the driveway between the ivy hedge and the new trees. All of these conditions would have been expected to be fulfilled by the builder at time of construction. I've also attached a copy of the meeting minutes from the March 27, 2006 Planning Commission meeting. There is discussion of privacy concerns between your property and the new dwelling, with specific mention of freestanding trellises. However in reviewing the minutes and the project file, I cannot find further information on the trellises beyond the mention in the minutes. I looked up the ownership information in the San Mateo County public records. The current owners are listed as Chan Alex & Irlina Arcenal, 1456 Bernal Avenue. These are not the same owners as who owned the property when the house was built. Given that there appears to have been a change in ownership, it may be possible that the current owners are not aware of the original conditions that were required for the side yard landscaping when the home was constructed. You are welcome to share this information with them — it is all public record. The original documents can be viewed at City Hall. We would hope that this information could be helpful for productive engagement with your neighbors. However should you find resistance but want to continue to pursue the matter, we suggest contacting the Peninsula Conflict Resolution Center at www.percweb.org, 650-513-0330. Our experience has shown that they can be very helpful in resolving issues between neighbors. I realize this is a lot of information, so should you have any questions about these documents please let me know.

The motion was seconded by C. Vistica. Comment on the motion: opposed, not comfortable with a minimum width driveway for a 5 bedroom house, need adequate access; height not too tall for this style, needs a pitched roof, at the joint meeting the City Council and Planning Commission discussed height and other issues for design review, so will be discussing this allowance more in the future; in this case need to do more work on the driveway to be sure it is useable; the motion is based on a 9'-6" width from the face of the retaining wall, since the other side setback is fixed, could affect the width of the house, so they may be back before the Commission. Chair Auran called for a roll call vote on the motion to approve this project with the amended condition that the property line retaining wall and vegetation it supports be protected and the driveway be a minimum of 9'-6" in width as measured from the face of the existing property line retaining wall. The motion passed on a 4-1-0-2 (C. Brownrigg dissenting and C. Osterling and Terrones absent). Appeal procedures were advised.

(TONY LEUNG, APPLICANT AND PROPERTY OWNER; AND JAMES CHU, DESIGNER) (66 NOTICED) PROJECT PLANNER: ERICA STROHMEIER Reference staff report March 27, 2006, with attachments. Plr Hurin presented the report, reviewed criteria and staff comments. Fifteen conditions were suggested for consideration. CP Monroe received clarification from the designer noting that the roof over the bay window at the living room will be copper, condition 41 will be amended to reflect this clarification. Chair Auran opened the public hearing. Tony Leung, applicant and property owner, was available to answer questions. Mary Frances Nappi, 1452 Bernal Avenue, noted that she met with the applicant to discuss the issues listed in her letter dated March 27, 2006, feel that the issues about retaining and protecting the existing hedge and ivy at the property line can be worked out with the applicant; there is no agreement about the proposed balcony at the rear of the house, would like to see a decorative wrought iron balcony off the master bedroom instead of a full balcony, feel privacy will be lost with a full balcony, will leave it up to the Commission for direction on the balcony. Applicant noted that he would like to have the balcony as proposed since it will add value to the property. Commission noted that the freestanding trellises, as requested by the neighbor, would help to provide privacy to the neighbor's rear yard and pool. There were no further comments and the public hearing was closed. Commission discussion: Commission should not get involved with the trellises, this should be worked out between the applicant and neighbor, concern about drainage will be addressed by the Public Works Department at time of building permit submittal, should add a condition for protection of the existing hedge and ivy in the neighbor's yard.

Include appropriate stormwater BMPs as Project Notes. These BMPs include but are not limited to the following: • Store, handle, and dispose of construction materials and wastes properly to prevent contact and contamination of stormwater; • Control and prevent the discharge of all potential pollutants, including pavement cutting wastes, paints, concrete, petroleum products, chemicals, wash water or sediments, and non-stormwater discharges to storm drains and watercourses; • Use sediment controls or filtration to remove sediment when dewatering site and obtain all necessary permits; • Avoid cleaning, fueling, or maintaining vehicles on -site except in a designated area where wash water is contained and treated, • Protect adjacent properties and undisturbed areas from construction impacts using vegetative buffer strips, sediment barriers or filters, dikes, mulching, or other measures as appropriate, • Perform clearing and earth moving activities only during dry weather; • Limit and time application of pesticides and fertilizers to prevent polluted runoff; • Limit construction access routes and stabilize designated access points; • Avoid tracking dirt or other materials off -site; clean off -site paved areas and sidewalks using dry sweeping method; • The Contractor shall train and provide instruction to all employees and subcontractors regarding the construction BMPs. 1 of 2 Project Comments — Con't-1456 Bernal Avenue- New 2-story SFD w/ detach gar. 2) The public right of way/easement shall not be used as a construction staging and/or storage area and shall be free of construction debris at all times. 3) Implement Erosion and Sedimentation Controls: a. Install and maintain all temporary erosion and sediment controls continuously until permanent erosion control have been established; b. Address method(s) for diverting on -site runoff around exposed areas and diverting off -site runoff arount the site; c. Address methods for preventing erosion and trapping sediment on -site. 4) Provide notes, specifications, or attachments describing the following: a. Construction, operation and maintenance of erosion and sediment control measures, including inspection frequency; b. Methods and schedule for grading, excavation, filling, clearing of vegetation, and storage and disposal of excavated or cleared material. Brochures and literatures on stormwater pollution prevention and BMPs are available for your review at the Planning and Building departments. Distribute to all project proponents.
