Reference staff report dated 12/6/82; aerial photo�raph; Sign Permit application filed October 26, 1982; sign drawings and site plan received October 29, 1982; letter from Nancy t�Joods, the applicant, received October 29, 1982; November 9, 1982 memo from the Fire P1arshal; November 8, 1982 memo from the City Engineer; Planning Commission minutes of uniform signage programs approved for the Avenue Arcade (7/22/74) and Burlingame Plaza (7/27/70). CP discussed code requirements; staff review; applicant's letter of explanation; study session request regarding other master signage programs approved; Planning staff's comments and concerns; findings required to grant a sign exception. If approved, two conditions were suggested for consideration as listed in the staff report. No representative of the applicant or property owner was present. Commission discussion: existing signage; signage proposed in the master sign program; square footage allowed by code if each business were to apply individually; quality of awning signs; desirability of shingle signs; the finding of special circumstances as required by code. It was determined if this master sign program were approved it would be the program enforced by the property owner and staff for each business in the building. A concern was expressed about flags flying and signs that are hung in the interior of the office spaces, but highly visible on the street. C. Harvey moved that this master sign permit and sign exception to establish a signage program for the building at 212-218 California Drive be approved in accordance with the graphic illustrations presented by Woods' Signs and with the following conditions: (1) that the conditions of the Fire Marshal's memo of November 9, 1982 be met and the copy of the sign on the secondary frontage of the building read "California-West"; 0 Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes 0 Pa ge 3 « '� December 13, 1982 received 11/9/82; November 7, 1982 letter from S.

Fong; site plans received December 23, 1978; and drawing indicating coffee shops in the M-1 District as of November, 1982. CP Monroe discussed this request to amend the hours of operation and number of seats of the coffee shop and noted CA's comment that the request was not subject to the recently imposed moratorium. Planning staff recorim�ended approval with two conditions as listed in the staff report. S. T. Teng, the applic�nt, was present. It was determined a second exit would not be required unless seating exceeded 49. Appropriate periods for review of the use permit were discussed. Chm. Mink opened the public hearing. There were no audience comments and the hearing was closed. Corhmission discussion: a suggestion the conditions include a requirement that total occupancy not exceed 49; one Commissioner expressed concern about extending the hours of operation, changing the character of the operation to more of a restaurant; office employees could buy take-home items earlier in the afternoon; further discussion noted only one other coffee shop had hours extending beyond 4:30 P.M.; another Commissioner thought it reasonable to extend the hours to 5:15 to provide a service to nearby offices; there was a concern about not creating a din��er house but providing a service for those who work in the immediate area; difference in floor plans submitted in 1978 and 1982; diagram of seating; CP noted Corr�nission's approval this evening would over- ride whatever the drawing showed.

SPECIAL PERP�IT TO ALLOW A PHOTO-PROCESSING SERVICE AT 214 CALIFORNIA DRIVE IN SUB-AREA D OF THE BURLINGAME AVENUE COMMERCIAL AREA, BY WILLIAM MULLIN AND CORTLANDT BENDER FOR IN FINE PRINT, INC. CP Monroe r.eviewed this application for a non-auto related retail/service use. Reference staff report dated 12/6/82; Project Application & CEQA Assessment received 10/27/82; letter from the applicant received October 27, 1982; November 8, 1982 memo from �the City Engineer; November 1, 1982 memo from the Fire Marshal; November 5, 1982 memo from the Chief Building Inspector; and plans date stamped October 27, 1982.

William Mullin, the applicant, was present and advised the business would be primarily photo processing (retail/commercial) with Instamatic camera sales not to exceed five percent and film sales 10 percent of the total sales. Chm. Mink opened the public � Burlingame Planning Commission Minutes Page 5 December 13, 1982 and (2) that the master sign program submitted, date stamped October 29, 1982, be the basis for issuing future sign permits to the businesses at 212-218 California Drive. In response to Code Sec. 22.06.110, C. Harvey found this sign exception approved subject to special conditions to ensure there is no granting of special privilege, testimony this evening had proven that what was granted was actual�y less than could be granted under other circumstances and therefore would not constitute a grant of special privilege; and that there are special circumstances applicable to the subject property in that Commission has determined the signage be based on a determination that it is one building rather than four separate buildings. Second C. Giomi; motion approved on a 6-0 roll call vote, C. Graham absent. Appeal procedures were advised. 7. SPECIAL PERMIT TO ALLOW AN AUTO AND HOME ALARM INSTALLATION SERVICE IN THE M-1 aISTRICT AT 810 BURLIdAY ROAD, BY JIM BERGREN OF IDENTI-GUARD SYSTEMS CP Monroe reviewed this request to allow retail sales and promotional classes for auto and home alarm systems in an office/warehouse building in the M-1 zone. Reference staff report dated 12/6/82; Project Application & CEQA Assessment received 11/5/82; aerial photograph; November 4 and November 24, 1982 letters from Jim A. Bergren, the applicant; November 8, 1982 letter from Nick Crisafi, property owner; November 22, 1982 memo from the City Engineer; November 30, 1982 memo from the Chief Building Inspector; November 19, 1982 memo from the Fire Marshal; site dra�ring; December 3, 1982 memo from Helen Towber, Planner with attached site plan showing present parking arrangement; and plans date stamped November 5, 1982. CP discussed details of the proposed business, noting all installation work would be done off-site, times of proposed seminars and parking provided; staff review; applicant's description of his operation; study session questions as a�dressed in the staff report; Planning staff comments on the proposed use. Staff recommended against this use permit. Tf approved three conditions were suggested as listed in the staff report. C. Graham arrived at 9:10 P.h1. Jim Bergren, the applicant, contended that Identi-uuard was not actually a retail business but rather a marketing company with offices at 810 Burlway offering seminars to teach prospective customers and offering a more affordable product. It was determined there would be demonstrations for retail customers (seminars were for the public; not salesmen); advertising was described as no on-street advertising, by invitation only, yellow page advertising for identification, robot telephone calls and follow-up, direct mail and customer referral. Available parking for the seminars was discussed as were required use permits: (1) retail sales on-site and (2) classroom use. Chm, hlink opened the public hearing. There were no audience comments and the hearing was closed. Commission discussion: seminar use appears to be secondary to the primary purpose of retailing to the public; applicant confirmed no fee is charged for the seminars; contract order for equipment could be placed at the seminar and equipment would be delivered to and/or installed at the home; it is basically a retail business and could become more so later through advertising. C. Giomi moved to deny this speci��l permit. Second C. Graham; application denied on a 5-2 roll call vote, Cers Cistulli and Garcia dissenting.
