The designer submitted a response letter and revised plans (SheetsA3.0 through A3.3), all date stamped December 18, 2007. Listed below are the Commissions' comments and responses by the applicant. 1. The addition lacks detail, the front of fhe exisfing home is rich with detail and this shou/d be carried through to the second story. Shutters and clay gab/e vents, like those on the exisfing portion of the structure, should both be carried through to the addition. • Details that match those of the existing structure were added to the proposed addition, including shutters, clay gable vents, and a false window (see response letter from architect and revised front and rear elevations, date stamped December 18, 2007). 2.

Design Review Criteria: The criteria for design review as established in Ordinance No. 1591 adopted by the Council on April 20, 1998 are outlined as follows: Compatibiliry of the architectural style with that of the existing character of the neighborhood; 2. Respect for the parking and garage patterns in the neighborhood; 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 for Design Review: Based on the findings stated by the Planning Commission in the attached minutes of their December 10, 2007 design review study meeting, that with the changes proposed at the design review study hearing incorporated into the plans, the architectural style of the addition will be consistent with the existing and adjacent structures, the project is found to be compatible with the requirements of the City's five design review guidelines. -2- Applications Address Planning Commission Action: The Planning Commission should conduct a public hearing on the application, and consider public testimony and the analysis contained within the staff report.

Our names are Mike and Lindsay Caruso and we have an 18 month old son named Daniel. We have lived at 827 Crossway Road for five years and are looking forward to raising our son here. After reviewing the costs of moving versus a remodel, we chose the later because we want a beautiful home we can be proud to raise our growing family in. We originally chose to live in our neighborhood because we are attracted to the historical and architectural details of the home. The little work that we have done here has been a journey finding old glass, fixtures moldings, etc., that are reminiscent of the home's original charm. In saying that, Mike is a General Contactor, heading up Caruso Construction, Inc., which has many years of experience specializing in the restoration of some of San Francisco's finest Victorian homes. He has also been a part of the San Francisco Historical Society. In doing this project we intend on matching all of the architectural details that currently exist in the home. Of the many details we will match in the home below is a short list of examples. a. custom wood doors and windows to match existing b. all interior and exterior moldings c. interior hardware As a former planning commission member in Pacifica (1992-1993) we have an appreciation for the challenge and hard work that each member of the planning commission is up against. Part of the reason we choose to live in Burlingame are direct results of the Commission's decision making. We hope you see that our project will be something that Burlingame can be proud to stamp with its seal of approval. Please approve our project.

Public comments: Brian Perry and Karen Perry, 1521 California Drive; Kathleen Barras, 1529 California Drive; Pat Giorni, 1445 Balboa Avenue; commented on the project: PG & E prefers that the fence not be any taller than 5-feet; prior properry owner increased the height of the fence without a permit, but no code enforcement action ever occurred; vegetation needs to be kept under control due to a rat problem; the neighbor would like the old fence taken down so that it doesn't collapse on his property; don't wish to see preferential treatment of properties on Oxford Drive versus properties on California Drive.
