Stivers CITY PLANNING COI&ISSION Burlingame, California Regular Meeting May 31, 1951 Others Present City Engineer Geo. J. Marr City Building Inspector Watson Mrs. Dorothy M. Dirr, 20 Anita Road, Burlingame, presented a letter, May 31, 1951, requesting permission to pay city license and operate a catering business from her home at the above address. She explained that no cooking is done on the premises. After consideration, it was concluded that this communication should be tabled to give opportunity to look into the subject. H. Deuprey, General Contractor, 2601 El Camino Real, Redwood City, appeared and submitted plans for proposed construction of a six -unit apartment house on Lot 7, Block 18, Easton Addition No. 2. After study of the plans, tentative approval was given subject to the revision of the plans relative to setback lines and garage area, the re- vised plans to be submitted to the building inspector for approval if in order. A letter of May 28, 1951, and plot plan were received from Ross W. Robison, Architect, 3130 Kingsland Avenue, Oakland, requesting reduced setback line on Lot 7, Block 7, Burlingame Terrace, Fairfield Road, near El Camino Real. The letter set forth the following reasons for the request:: 1. The setback shown will be an average from the existing buildings on either side, and it will still maintain parallel building lines. 2. If the normal required 15'-setback is maintained, the front build- ing lines would have to be parallel to the street, rather than the adjacent buildings. 3. The 15' setback would require a reduction in depth of the carports to 14' and even then the ingress and egress to numbers 1, 2, and 3 will be very difficult. 4. The 15' setback will make the existing garage appear very prominent in the setback areas. 5. The proposed setback should not make any difference to the owner of the existing house, because their floor line is probably higher than the proposed carports. After discussion and consideration, it was the consensus of the commissioners that the established setback lines should be observed; that is, 20 feet on E1 Camino Real, 15 feet on Fairfield Road, and 3 feet on the lot sidelines. The City Engineer was requested to investigate the storm -drain situation with respect to this lot. meeting.
