Applicant: Cheryl Putnam
Architect: Hugh Hynes, Proto Inc.
Property Owner: 100-198 California Drive Llc
General Plan: Commercial Uses: Service & Special Sales
APN: 029-233-080
Lot Area: 95,911 SF
Zoning: C-2, Sub Area D
Project Description: The subject site contains several buildings including a two-story auto showroom and
service facility at 100 California Drive (corner of California Drive and Bayswater Avenue), a four-story parking
garage fronting California Drive, and a finro-story auto showroom and service facility (two separate buildings) at
198 California Drive (corner of California Drive and Howard Avenue). This application is for proposed changes
to the farade of the existing commercial building located at 100 California Drive, zoned C-2, Sub Area D,
Burlingame Avenue Commercial Area. The building is currently occupied by Putnam Buick and GMC for
automobile sales and service. With this application there are no changes proposed to the uses within the
existing building (showroom and sales offices).
The project includes alterations to the building facades along Califomia Drive, BayswaterAvenue and the portion
of the building facing the four-story parking garage. The existing building contains painted stucco plasterwalls,
decorative headers, a steel-framed storefront window and door system, a canopy wrapping the corner of the
building, a concrete base and metal roll-up doors. Along the California Drive fa�ade, the exterior building will
consist of aluminum-composite paneling at the upper portion of the building, an aluminum-composite entry
element, stucco walls and base below the aluminum-composite paneling and an aluminum-framed storefront
window and door system. The same exterior elements will extend to the Bayswater Avenue frontage; however
portions of the building towards the rear containing stucco walls, windows and roll-up doors will be retained and
repainted. The building farade facing the parking garage will receive new aluminum-framed storefrontwindows
and doors with aluminum-composite paneling wrapping around the corner of the building; the existing stucco
walls will be retained and repainted. Please refer to the proposed building elevations (sheet A.301) provided by
the architect. A materials board has been submitted and will be available at the public meeting. This project is
subject to Commercial Design Review because it includes changes to more than 50% of the front farade of a
building located in the C-2 zoning district. All other zoning code requirements have been met. The project
requires the following application:
