Design Review
Address: 229 Bloomfield Road
Item No. 7a
Regular Action Item
Meeting Date: October 9, 2018
Request: Application for Design Review for first and second story addition to an existing single-family dwelling.
Applicant and Designer: Dale Meyer, Dale Meyer and Associates APN: 029-252-080
Property Owners: Rob and Kristin Flenniken Lot Area: 7,500 SF
General Plan: Low Density Residential Zoning: R-1
Environmental Review Status: The project is Categorically Exempt from review pursuant to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Section 15301 (e)(1) of the CEQA Guidelines, which states that additions
to existing structures are exempt from environmental review, provided the addition will not result in an increase
of more than 50% of the floor area of the structures before the addition.
Project Description: The existing two-story house with an attached one car garage contains 2,905 SF (0.38
FAR) of floor area. The proposed project includes a first and second story addition which would increase the
floor area to 3,448 SF (0.45 FAR) where 3,500 SF (0.46 FAR) is the maximum allowed as perthe Zoning Code.
The proposed project is 52 SF below the maximum allowed FAR.
The existing house contains four bedrooms and with the proposed project the number of bedrooms wouldn't
change. For a four-bedroom house, two parking spaces are required, one of which must be covered. The
existing one-car garage would maintain a 12'-2'h" X 20'-11" clear area, where 9'-0" x 18'-0" is allowed for an
existing one car garage. One uncovered parking space (9'-0" x 20'-0") is provided in the driveway. Therefore, the
project is in compliance with the off-street parking requirements. All other Zoning Code requirements have been
met. The applicant requests the following application:

Staff Comments: None
Design Review Study Meeting: At the Planning Commission design review study meeting on September 24, 2018,
the Commission was overall satisfied with the design of the project and voted to place this item on the Consent
Calendar (see attached September 24, 2018, Planning Commission Minutes). The Commission noted a drafting
error on the front elevation and asked the applicant to submit the correct elevation. The applicant submitted a
response letter and revised sheet, P4, dated September 26, 2018. The front elevation was revised to show the
correct existing roof profile on the second floor roof. There were no other changes to the plans.
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:
Compatibility of the architectural style with that of the existing character of the neighborhood;
2. Respect for the parking and garage patterns in the neighborhood;
3. 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.
Suggested Findings for Design Review: The subject property is a located on an interior lot and the proposed
second story addition is at the rear of the property, which is not visible from the street. The project maintains the
existing Mediterranean architectural style of the house by using similar materials as the existing house, which
includes clay roof tiles and stucco siding. The proposed addition interfaces well with the adjacent properties and
for these reasons the project may be found to be compatible with the requirements of the City's five design
review criteria.
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 of approval should be considered:
1. that the project shall be built as shown on the revised plans submitted to the Planning Division date
stamped September 6 and September 26, 2018, sheets A1 through L2.1;
2. that any changes to building materials, exterior finishes, windows, architectural features, roof height or
�

pitch, and amount or type of hardscape materials shall be subject to Planning Division or Planning
Commission review (FYI or amendment to be determined by Planning staffl;
3. that any changes to the size or envelope of the basement, first or second floors, or garage, which would
include adding or enlarging a dormer(s), shall require an amendment to this permit;
4. that any recycling containers, debris boxes or dumpsters for the construction project shall be placed
upon the private property, if feasible, as determined by the Community Development Director;
5. 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;
6. that prior to issuance of a building permit for construction of the project, the project construction plans
shall be modified to include a cover sheet listing all conditions of approval adopted by the Planning
Commission, or City Council on appeal; which shall remain a part of all sets of approved plans
throughout the construction process. Compliance with all conditions of approval is required; the
conditions of approval shall not be modified or changed without the approval of the Planning
Commission, or City Council on appeal;
7. that all air ducts, plumbing vents, and flues shall be combined, where possible, to a single termination
and installed on the portions of the roof not visible from the street; and that these venting details shall be
included and approved in the construction plans before a Building permit is issued;
8. 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;
9. that the project shall meet all the requirements of the California Building and Uniform Fire Codes, 2016
Edition, as amended by the City of Burlingame;
THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS SHALL BE MET DURING THE BUILDING INSPECTION PROCESS PRIOR
TO THE INSPECTIONS NOTED IN EACH CONDITION:
10. that prior to scheduling the framing inspection the project architect or residential designer, or another

architect or residential designer, or another architect or residential design professional, that

ridge and provide certification of that height to the Building Division; and
13. that prior to final inspection, Planning Division staff will inspect and note compliance of the architectural
details (trim materials, window type, etc.) to verify that the project has been built according to the

5. Building Height (Code Section 25.26.060)
Average top of curb: (101.35' + 100.98')/2 = 101.17'
