Home My WebLink About1576 Cypress Avenue - Staff ReportCity of Burlingame Special Permits Address: 1576 Cypress Avenue Item No. 3 Action Item Meeting Date: March 10, 2014 Request: Application for Special Permits for accessory structure length and reduction in the number of parking spaces on site to replace an existing two-car detached garage with a detached one-car garage. Applicant and Property Owner: Peter G. Comaroto Designer: Enertia Designs General Plan: Low Density Residential APN: 028-295-130 Lot Area: 8300 SF Zoning: R-1 Environmental Review Status: The project is Categorically Exempt from review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Section15303 (e), which states that construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures including accessory (appurtenant) structures including garages, carports, patios, swimming pools and fences is exempt from environmental review. History: On April 14, 2003 the Planning Commission approved an application for design review for a first and second story addition and special permits for a new detached garage (see attached April 14, 2003 Planning Commission Minutes). The approved garage measured 14' wide x 36' deep, 504 SF in area. Special permits were required because 1) the detached garage exceeded 28'-0" in length and 2) because there was a reduction in the number of existing parking spaces on site (replacing an existing two-car garage with a one-car garage). The first and second story addition was completed; however at that time the property owner decided not to build the new garage and instead retained the existing two-car garage. The property owner is now proposing to replace the existing two-car garage with a one-car garage, in the same location and size as the previously approved detached garage approved by the Planning Commission in 2003. However, the design of the proposed single-car detached is different than the 2003 approval (see previously approved elevations attached to staff report and proposed plans, date stamped March 3, 2014). Project Description: The subject property is pie-shaped, narrows towards the rear of the site and then widens again (see Site Plan). Currently, the subject property contains a two-story, four-bedroom house and a detached two-car garage at the rear of the lot. The applicant is proposing to replace an existing detached two-car garage (400 SF) with a new detached one-car garage (504 SF, 14' wide x 36' deep). The detached garage will contain stucco siding, asphalt shingle roofing, a metal door at the front and wood French doors along the left side, aluminum clad wood windows, wood vents and an exterior fireplace/brick chimney. The proposed detached garage is not subject to design review. With the new detached garage, the floor area on the property will increase from 4,034 SF (0.49 FAR) to 4,138 SF (0.49 FAR), where 4,156 SF (0.50 FAR) is the maximum allowed (project is 18 SF below the maximum allowed FAR). The applicant is requesting approval of two special permits for construction of the new detached garage. The first is for the length of the detached garage (36'-0" proposed where 28'-0" is the maximum allowed without a special permit). The second special permit is for a reduction in the number of existing parking spaces on site; reducing from three existing parking spaces (two covered + one uncovered) to two parking spaces (one covered + one uncovered). As noted below, the proposed garage complies with the off-street parking requirement for a four-bedroom house. Please referto the Special PermitApplication submitted bythe applicantwhich addresses the special permit requests. Two parking spaces, one of which must be covered, are required for the existing four-bedroom house. The new detached garage (13'-0" wide x 20'-0" deep clear interior dimensions) provides one covered space; one uncovered parking space (9' x 20') is provided in the driveway. The rear portion of the garage extending beyond the 20-foot depth of the parking space (217 SF) would be used for storage, which is limited to 10% of the area of the house, or in this case 363 SF. All other zoning code requirements have been met. Specia/ Permits The applicant is requesting the following applications: 1576 Cypress Avenue ■ Special Permit for length of a new detached one-car garage (36'-0" proposed where 28'-0" is the maximum allowed) (C.S. 25.26.035 (e)); and ■ Special Perrnit for a reduction in the number of parking spaces on site (from three parking spaces to two parking spaces) to replace an existing detached two-car garage with a detached one-car garage (C.S. 25.26.035 (b)). 1576 Cypress Avenue Lot Area: ti:iUU Sr rlans aate stam ed: Marcn �, LU14 EXISTING PROPOSED ALLOWED/REQ'D SETBACKS Lof Coverage: 3180 SF 3284 SF 3320 SF 38.3% 39.5% 40% FAR: 4034 SF 4138 SF 4156 SF' 0.49 FAR 0.49 FAR 0.50 FAR _. , . _.. ......................................_..................

If the Commission feels there is a need for more discussion, this item may be placed on a future action calendar for a second review and/or public hearing with direction to the applicant. Since this application was initially submitted as a building permit, the applicant is in the process of addressing comments from the Building, Parks, Engineering, Fire and Stormwater Divisions. Findings for a Special Permit: In order to grant a Special Permit for accessory structure length and a reduction in the number of existing space on-site, the Planning Commission must find that the following conditions exist on the property (Code Section 25.51.020 a-d): (a) The blend of mass, scale and dominant structural characteristics of the new construction or addition are consistent with the existing structure's design and with the existing street and neighborhood; (b) the variety of roof line, facade, exterior finish materials and elevations of the proposed new structure or addition are consistent with the existing structure, street and neighborhood; (c) the proposed project is consistent with the residential design guidelines adopted by the city; and (d) removal of any trees located within the footprint of any new structure or addition is necessary and is consistent with the city's reforestation requirements, and the mitigation for the removal that is proposed is appropriate. 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. Action should include specific findings supporting the Planning Commission's decision, and should be affirmed by resolution of the Planning Commission. The reasons for any action should be stated clearly for the record. At the public hearing the following conditions should be considered: 1. that the project shall be built as shown on the plans submitted to the Planning Division date stamped March 3, 2014, sheets A-1 and A-2, and that any changes to footprint or floor area of the accessory structure shall require an amendment to this permit; 2. that the detached garage shall only be used for parking and shall not be used for accessory living or sleeping purposes; 3. - that if the accessory.structure is demolished or the envelope changed at a later date the Special Permits as well as any other exceptions to the code granted here will become void; 4. that demolition or removal of the existing structures and any grading or earth moving on the site shall not occur until a building permit has been issued and such site work shall be required to comply with all the regulations of the Bay Area Air Quality Management District; 5. that the project shall comply with the Construction and Demolition Debris Recycling Ordinance which requires affected demolition, new construction and alteration projects to submit a Waste Reduction plan and meet recycling requirements; any partial or full demolition of a structure, interior or exterior, shall require a demolition permit; and 6. that the project shall meet all the requirements of the California Building and Uniform Fire Codes, 2013 Edition, as amended by the City of Burlingame. 3 Special Permits Ruben Hurin Senior Planner c.
