Dear Mr. Winges,
City Hall - 501 Primrose Road
Burlingame, California 94010-3997
Tel. (650) 558-7200
Since there was no appeal to or suspension by the City Council, the January 8, 2001 Planning Commission approval
of your parking dimension variance and design review application became effective January 17, 2001. This
application was to allow a first and second story addition at 1460 Bernal Avenue, zoned R-1.
The January 8, 2001 minutes of the Planning Commission state your application was approved with the following
conditions:
that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Department date stamped
November 8, 2000, Sheets AO through A4, site plan, floor plans, elevations and building section, and that
any changes to the footprint or floor area of the building shall require an amendment to this permit;
2. that the roofing material on the front dormer shall be copper;
3. 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 roof height
or pitch, shall be subject to design review;
4. that the conditions of the Chief Building Official's June 3, 2000 memo and the City Engineer's May 30, 2000
memo shall be met;
that the variance for parking space dimension for the uncovered parking space in the driveway is being
granted by the City because of a pre-existing condition on the property, which would impose an unfair
burden on the owner to correct or remove as part of this addition; however, this condition could have been
corrected if the structure were demolished and replaced. Therefore, should the existing dwelling be
demolished, the variance approved for uncovered parking space dimension shall automatically expire, and
the owner may apply for a new variance or may improve the property so that it conforms to the Zoning Code
requirements for uncovered parking space dimensions. In this case, "demolished" means removal of greater
than ten (10) percent or more in square footage of the exterior walls than was approved in the design review
application; 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.
Reimbursement of the unspent portion of your design review deposit has been processed and will be mailed to the
property owner under separate cover.
All site improvements and construction work will require separate application to the Building Department. This
approval is valid for one year during which time a building permit must be issued. One extension of up to one year
may be considered by the Planning Commission if application is made before the end of the first year.
The decision of the Council is a final administrative decision pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1094.6.
If you wish to challenge the decision in a court of competent jurisdiction, you must do so within 90 days of the date
of the decision unless a shorter time is required pursuant to state or federal law.
Sincerely yours,
M aret Moz
