PUBLIC HEARING - APPEAL FOR SPECIAL PERMITS AND PARKING VARIANCE FOR DRAPERY SHOP AND DRY CLEANERS AT 1501 EL CAMINO REAL - PLANNING COM- MISSION DENIAL UPHELD City Planner reviewed her memo of June 22 which recommended council hold a public hearing and take action. The applicant is requesting to build a 2,525 SF retail commercial structure for two businesses at this address. One business would be a 884 SF dry cleaning agency (no dry cleaning on site) and the second would be a 1,641 SF drapery/window covering shop. Under the zoning conditions of this parcel, a use permit is required for every business. Total customers for both stores is projected to be 18 per day, increasing to 25 it five years. The proposed plans show eight parking spaces between the building and El Camino Real. A parking variance for seven spaces is requested because six of the parking spaces are located in the 20 foot setback on El Camino Real. There will be two driveways, one off Adeline and one off El Camino. The 20 foot setback is required along El Camino to insure that structures are not placed so close that the street cannot be widened. There are no plans to widen El Camino at this time, however, if a right hand turn lane tBl were ever added at Adeline the dimension of the parking spaces would be affected. The planning commission voted to deny the requests at its June 13 meeting. The applicants appealed to council. Councilwoman Knight asked about when the zoning change was adopted and whether Chevron (the property owners) was notified of the change; she discussed location of driveways. City Planner reviewed the history of the zoning change and discussed the conditions, including requirements for the Adeline Market site. Mayor O'Mahony opened the public hearing. Councilman Pagliaro noted the presence of a court reporter. Bob Vasquez, representing property owner, said he was advised by legal counsel to have a court reporter record the action. Vasquez said the driveway on El Camino could be eliminated. He distributed six lengthy documents regarding city action on similar projects. The variance is to allow them to park on the setback, he noted the state does not intend to widen El Camino and the city has designated the trees along El Camino as historically significant. Many properties along El Camino use the setback for parking and if the street were widened some of these properties would not be able to access their parking. His building is set back almost 40 feet, they have eliminated the two story concept, tried to remove all objections to previous proposals for this site. He introduced the prospective business owner and the architect. P Sadigh, businessman, said he has a similar business in Belmont and has over 20 customers from Burlingame. Jack Matthews, architect, showed slides of many buildings on El Camino which use front setback for parking or for driveways to underground garages. He planned a one story building set back from street; showed plans and drawings of proposed building. Councilman Pagliaro asked the business owner how many customers he had each day in Belmont. Sadigh replied about 25. Mrs. Daggett, Mrs. Kirchner, Gregory Tancer, Chris Shaw, Daren Schofield, Mamora Terrill, and Susan Towle spoke in opposition. They noted traffic problems at the intersection, thought it was a dangerous inteisection, children walk to schools in area, buses stop in front of site. Wanted to see a p*ri b.rilt on site; houses across the street are English architecture and this building would not blend into area; there is already a dry cleaner in shopping center there and number of customers proposed by developer is not realistic; customers would park on residential streets and in shopping center lot; developer tried to get the dry cleaner that is already in shopping center to break his lease. Two speakeis presented petitions in opposition. Terrill, Adeline Shopping Center owner, said there is already a dry cleaner in her center; she had heard that the applicant had suggested her tenant break the lease; she noted her tenant dry cleaner would not be seen from street if this building were built; she was concerned about impact of this proposal on parking in the shopping center; regarding her purchasing the subject properfy, she said she could not expose herself to the liability for cleanup of the site for gasoline leaks from former gas station. Bob Vasquez rebutted, stating the immediate area is a neighborhood retail shopping area and the proposed use is appropriate for the site; proposal would have same value as any business has to a community; as far as design, they could make it Engtish architectural character to satisfy neighbors; willing to work with city, open to suggestions; Mrs. Terrill wanted to sell her shopping center and they made an offer but her price was too high; best thing would be to merge the two parcels; he noted they have been trying to sell the site for four years; said any street widening would affect any type of use at the site. Council asked why they would put another cleaner in close proximity to the esiablished dry cleaner. Vasquez said competition is good for business. The hearing was closed. Councilman Pagliaro reviewed the prior history of site, as far as he knows this site only came before council once before; the proposed use is reasonable; citizens must understand that the property owner must be allowed use of his property; he was concerned the project was too large, 182 might impact parking and worried about egress, should eliminate the El Camino driveway; would favor giving the applicant the oppornrnity to come back to council with smaller proposal. Councilwoman Knight recalled the previous proposals for this site; even though the state may never widen El Camino, the city might want to install a right turn lane which would affect parking at site; felt the customer count for the dry cleaner was wrong; when neighbors mentioned hope for a park there, they did not envision a playground, but a passive park; she determined there was a safety issue with the egress onto Adeline or El Camino and the aesthetics, mass and bulk are detrimental to neighborhood. Councilman Harrison agreed, although he sympathized with Pagliaro; he thought a passive park could be on the city's wish list in the future. Councilman Spinelli lived a few blocks from site, could see Pagliaro's point, but the project proposed is too bulky; he hated to see parking on the setback; perhaps if they realign the building to the north end of site and shrink the size would need less parking variance. Mayor O'Mahony said the only way she could approve the project were if it were smaller and parking were entered by an easement from Adeline Market parking lot, there are too many driveways into center. Councilwoman Knight moved to uphold the planning commission denial because of reasons stated. The motion was seconded by Councilman Harrison and carried unanimously. PUBLIC HEARING - APPEAL FOR AMENDMENTS TO CONDITIONS FOR PARKING VARIANCE AT 1420 BURLINGAME AVENUE - RESOLUTION 42-94 APPROVING SAME City Planner reviewed her memo of June 24 which recommended council hold a public hearing and take action. Maurice Hack, representing Boardwalk Properties, is requesting an amendment to the 43 space parking variance granted in 1991. The change would eliminate the conditionprohibiting food establishments on the first floor. The 43 space parking variance was granted to convert the two upper floors from storage to office use, and to extend the existing 3,030 SF mezzanine 1,791 SF. The building is unreinforced masonry (URM) and the changes were requested in 1991 in order to make the seismic retrofit of the URM building financially feasible. In 1991 the applicant offered not to replace the two restaurants after retrofit to reduce the parking impact. The present request is to allow the continuation of the two 2,572 SF eating establishments on the ffust floor after the seismic retrofit. If either restaurant were to be made larger, it would require a use permit. She also noted that granting this request would restart the clock on the parking variance. The seismic retrofit ordinance requires that he get a building permit in 1995 and complete construction by June 1996. Council received a letter today from Norman Book, attorney for Hack, stating that the applicant has been attempting to locate non-restaurant tenants, but has failed to procure a user with financial statements attractive to a lender; additionally, he has several prospective tenants with strong financial statements which are all food establishments. He offered to eliminate the proposed addition to the mezzarine if council is willing to continue the existing restaurant use on the ground floor, this would reduce the parking variance needed for the office spaces from 44 to 37. Council- man Pagliaro noted this is a necessary URM repair and asked if council could make condition that building permit be required by 1995. Staff responded yes. Mayor O'Mahony opened the public hearing. Norman Book, attorney for applicant, summarized his letter and stated the applicant would reduce the mezzanine by 1,700 SF. Councilman Harrison said he heard the building was for sale. Councilman Pagliaro wondered if applicant would agree to a condition that the exterior not be changed. Sam Malouf, merchant, stated his support of the request; noted the building is important to the appearance of the Avenue; urged council to assist this owner. Maurice Hack noted his objection to some statements made at planning commission meeting which might jeopardize sale of building; he noted they had gone through much expense in developing these plans; that they preserved the front of the structure but changed and improved the appearance of the t83 rear; there are several nationally recognized restaurant chains interested in the building; they are also considering a joint venture to maintain and preserve this building. The hearing was closed. Mayor O'Mahony recalled the 1992 council action; the building must be seismically retrofitted, it is a charming building we want to keep on the Avenue; she had no objection to the restaurants staying Hack commented about facade on Chapin side of building. Councilman Pagliaro discussed with staff the retention of the right to have a food establishment when the site is vacant; staff noted if the space is being remodeled or being advertised for rent for the same use the right to a food establish- ment is retained. Councilman Pagliaro said council is urging repair of the URM buildings, this building is historically important; he moved to overturn the planning commission and go along with the reduction of the size of the mezzarine as described in Norman Book's letter dated July 5, 1994. Motion seconded by Councilman Harrison with additional condition that the front exterior on Burlingame Avenue remain the same. Councilman Spinelli asked if the variance was extended until January !995, he would like to see these repairs done as quickly as possible because of earthquake dangers. The applicants indicated they would make every effort to comply. Councilwoman Knight recalled the 1992 action and her wish to deny without prejudice; but noted with reduction of mezzarine size, she was agreeable to request. The motioncarried unanimously by roll call vote. There was discussion of time limits on restaurant permits and need for future study in September' MAP FOR A FOUR UNIT CONDOMINIUM AT 1128 CHULA VISTA City planner reviewed her memo of June 27 which recommended council hold a public hearing and take action. Paul Gumbinger, architect representing Boreal/Poplar Developments, is requesting to build a four unit residential condominium at 1128 Chula Vista, zoned C-1 Broadway Commercial Area. All condominium guidelines have been met. Previous projects proposed for this site have been commercial on the first floor with residential on second floor but none have been approved. The developer undertook studies which determined all-residential was the most viable, this would require u .harg" in zoning and a general plan amendment. Since this lot is adjacent to R-3 zoning and parking is provided on site, there would be no detrimental effects. The planning commission recommended council approve these requests at its June 13 meeting. Mayor O'Mahony opened the public hearing. Paul Gumbinger, architect, explained the project meets residential condominium requirements and the applicant accepts all conditions for approval; previously proposed building on site was built to lot line because of the first floor commercial use, new building will have maximum landscaping and parking. Councilman Pagliaro asked about exterior finish, was pleased to see plan was not a flat rectangle. The hearing was closed. Councilman Harrison moved to approve the Negative Declaration with appropriate findings, to adopt RESOLUTION 43-94 Approving General Plan Amendment, to introduce ORDINANCE 1506 Changing Zorung from C-l to R-3, to grant a condominium permit with conditions in staff report, and to approve the tentative map for the four unit condominium project at ll28 Chula Vista. Seconded by Councilman Pagliaro and carried unanimously by roll call vote. POSTPONE HEARING FOR 1209-1211 BAYSWATER A letter from Tim Brosnan, Pacific Properties, requested this hearing be poslponed until the next meeting. Mayor O'Mahony set the hearing to July 18, 1994. lBr PUBLIC HEARING - SECOND READING - ORDINANCE 1504 - ALLOWING TEMPORARY RELOCATION OF FOOD ESTABLISHMENTS FROM URM BUILDINGS City Attorney reviewed his memo of June 10 which recommended council hold a public hearing and take action. In June 1994 council discussed the issue of restaurants in the Burlingame Avenue and Broadway areas which may need to temporarily relocate while URM work is being done to their buildings. Council directed an amendment to city code which would allow council to grant a permit for temporary relocation while retaining the limit on the number of restaurants. Council may apply whatever conditions necessary in each situation to assure the restaurant moves back when work is done. The ordinance expires on January l, 1995, the deadline for submitting plans for URM work. Mayor O'Mahony opened the public hearing. Gary Cohen,347 Primrose, said he was involved in several of the URM projects; he urged council to take each project case by case; what would happen if a restaurant wanted to expand. Staff said it would need a use permit. The hearing was closed. Councilman Pagliaro moved adoption of ORDINANCE 1504. Seconded by Councilman Harrison and carried unanimously on roll call vote. PUBLIC HEARING - SECOND READING - ORDINANCE 1505 - REVISING TAXI INSUR- City Attorney reviewed his memo of June 15 which recommended council hold public hearing and take action. This ordinance makes two changes to our taxi ordinance; to conform insurance language in the code to our actual insurance requirements and to prohibit hotel employees from giving preference to certain taxi, limousine or shuttle operators in exchange for gratuities. After preparation of the staff report, he heard from Harry Young, union representative of hotel employ- ees, who suggested some changes in the ordinance. Mayor O'Mahony opened the public hearing. Harry Young said the real problem is with taxi companies, not limo, bus or shuttle services. He recommended deleting those businesses from the ordinance. He explained that hotel employees are low-paid and depend on gratuities which are part of the business contract with the limo and bus companies. There may have been some problems with taxis; he recommended the ordinance prohibit any kickbacks for cab drivers. Dan, a cab driver for Luxor, was representing cab drivers; he said some bellmen are giving long, favorable trips to certain cab companies in exchange for tips; he said passengers are kept waiting for that cab company when another cab is readily available; he noted some hotels have cracked down on this. There was lengthy discussion. Young said he was working with hotels and would notify them, as would staff. Councilman Harrison moved adoption of ORDINANCE 1505 with changes in wording to delete the limo, bus and shuttle companies. Seconded by Councilwoman Ifuight and carried unanimously by roll call vote. PUBLIC COMMENTS Ken Hoffman,755 Winchester, explained and distributed flyers regarding his "Mr. Buddy" show for children. There was a five minute break and council reconvened at 10:15 p.m. lBs BART RESPONSE TO CITY'S REOUEST FOR DOCTJMENTS City Attorney reviewed his memo of June 30 with attached letter from BART attorney John Vickland. Vickland suggests council wait until after the release of the EIR (mid July) so that it can better focus on the documents it wishes to review. Mayor O'Mahony favored waiting for the EIR; she noted the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors had introduced a draft resolution in support of Caltrain with access to BART and the airport and recommending no public agency support a BART only station. She thanked council members for efforts with the council/BART meeting held recently. Councilman Pagliaro wanted to review BART documents; suggested he and the City Attorney visit BART on Friday for this review. Councilwoman Knight wondered if council needed help in reviewing and arrrlyzing the EIR. Mayor O'Mahony said the greatest interest would be the financial portion. Council discussed CCAG and the MOU, and getting cities consensus on this matter. Councilwoman Knight said she got a call from Supervisor Griffin regarding this issue, Griffin suggested city could make an impression on the Board by signing the MOU. Councilman Harrison asked staff to put the MOU on the next agenda. Councilman Spinelli suggested council members speak to the various transportation boards. RECARE REOUEST TO USE CITY PARKING LOT City Manager reviewed his memo of June 27 with attached letter from Recare requesting use of faiting fot g at Ralston and El Camino for a flea market and boutique on September 10, 1994. Council should consider this request; he noted neighbors of the lot have not been informed; he suggested the lot on Chapin might be better but it did not have the exposure that El Camino had. Councilwoman Knight said this request might be a way to determine use in light of possibly using the lot for relocation of the library during reconstruction. Councilmen Spinelli and Pagliaro feared setting a precedent, did not favor request. Council concurred in rejecting the request. RESOLUTION 44-94 - MAKING DETERMINATION OF PROPERTY TAX EXCHANGE FOR ANNEXATION OF 1225 ARMSBY BURLINGAME TO TOWN OF HILLSBOROUGH City Manager reviewed his memo of June 27 which recommended council approve this resolution to transfer the city portion of the property tax ($1,853.75) from Burlingame to Hillsborough. In October lgg2, council approved inconceptthe reorganization of 1225 Armsby from Burlingame to Hillsborough; Hillsborough later rejected the request. With the acquisition of a piece of land adjacent to the street right of way in that city, Hillsborough has now approved the transfer and this resolution will begin the process of annexation. Councilwoman Knight asked about the sewer and water service; staff noted sewer service would still be provided by Burlingame, but water would be transferred to Hillsborough. Councilman Harrison moved approval of RESOLUTION 44-94. Seconded by Councilman Spinelli and carried unanimously by voice vote. LEAF BLOWERS City Attorney reviewed his memo of June 29 which asked council to consider this issue and direct staff. In May council discussed this issue and asked staff to research the possibility of limiting leaf flowers to specific list of models which meet a decibel maximum of 75 DBA. Since that time Park Director discussed with manufacturers and it is staff's conclusion that this is not a feasible option. Council has the option of (1) banning all leaf blowers either throughout the city or in some zones; (2) limiting blowers to 75 dba but we would have to invest in a decibel meter and determine which 186 department will enforce; or (3) further restrict hours of use or zones of use. Council discussed with staff, Park Director noted the new machines are quieter. Council said at a study meeting it had directed that an ordinance be prepared to restrict the hours for professional gardeners to weekdays in residential zones. Staff will prepare such an ordinance. ANTENNAS City Attorney reviewed his memo of June 27 which recommended council direct staff. Last year council had considerable discussion of dish antennas which was generated by code enforcement action on two such antennas at 625 Burlingame Avenue (a single family home) and at 121,6 Floribunda (a condominium). During a hearing on a proposed antenna ordinance revision, representatives of these owners argued the city had little control over installation of dish antennas, that our ordinance would not stand up in court and we must allow properties to have dish antenna. The city attorney requested a study from Hammett & Edison, consulting engineers in the television industry, that determined the maximum size dish antenna necessary in Burlingame is seven feet in diameter. Council asked the city attorney and the property representatives to develop more specific criteria in the area of aesthetics and about the proposed mandatory reception study to be performed by the property owners. The city attorney has been unable to get any suggestions from the property representatives but he has worked with the city planner in further refining a proposed ordinance. He suggested council either introduce this ordinance or set it for further study. He noted there have been no requests for residential dish antenna recently. Council directed this issue be put on the September study meeting agenda. CANCELLATION OF STUDY MEETING Council concurred on cancellation of the July 20 study meeting as recorlmended by the City Manager's memo of Jurc 27. PROJECT READ Council reviewed the City Librarian's memo of June 28 with attached letters from K.G. Ouye outlining the program, and a letter in support of the program from the President of the Library Board, Shirley Robertson. Council discussed where funds would come from and staff responded there was $1,000 left unallocated from community funding. Councilman Harrison moved approval of a donation of $3,000 to Project Read, $1,000 from unallocated community funds and $2,000 from contingency reserves. The motion was seconded and carried unanimously. CONSENT CALENDAR Regarding "a" Councilman Pagliaro asked what would happen if all council members were incapacitated during an emergency. Councilwoman Knight asked about the cost of resurfacing the school parking lot in the contract for Franklin School field repairS, "b," and also about the fencing; she also noted that she has always voted against anything to do with the Chula Vista parking lot but she did not want to infer rejection of the contractor or staff work, so she would vote in favor. t87 b a INTRODUCTION OF ORDINANCE 1507 AMENDING EMERGENCY SERVICES FOR SUCCESSION OF CHAIRMAN AND DIRECTOR City Manager's memo of June 27 recommended council adopt this ordinance. During budget discussions council expressed concern about its role during disasters. In reviewing the code, the disaster council membership only includes the mayor and does not clearly provide for succession of the chairman or director. This ordinance provides for membership on the disaster council of the full council and a method of determining its chairman. The city manager is designated the director of emergency services and the assistant director is the fire chief. In the event neither of these persons are available, the duties would be assumed by the police chief, public works director, or a senior officer from fire, police or public works. RESOLUTION 45-94 - AWARDING CONTRACT FOR FRANKLIN SCHOOL FIELD RENOVATION - CP 9401 Park Director's memo of June 29 recommended council award the contract to the low bidder, Jensen Corporation, in the amount of $167,906 including alternate "a.

RESOLUTION 46-94 - SUBDIVISION AGREEMENT FOR LOT COMBINATION AT 1701 ROLLINS AND 30 INGOLD Public Works memo of June 15 recommended council approve this subdivider's agreement to combine these M-1 zoned lots with the condition that all damaged curb, gutter and sidewalk fronting this site be repaired to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Council approved this map in 1993 but the property owner would like to build structures before he repairs side- walks to eliminate potential for damage to them by heavy equipment during construction. RESOLUTION 47-94 - AWARDING CONTRACT FOR CHULA VISTA PARKING LOT. PHASE I - DEMOLITION OF BUILDING - CP 9205 Public Works memo of June 27 recommended council award this contract to the low bidder, R&B Equipment Rentals, in the amount of $38,360. RESOLUTION 48-94 - AUTHORIZING CONTRACT FOR LIBRARY RECONSTRUC- TION ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES - CP 9305 Public Works memo of June 29 recommended council approve an agreement with Group 4 for architectural services for the library at a maximum cost of $812,273. FOR WASHINGTON PARK WATER WELL. PHASE II - WELL PUMPING AND TANKS - CP 93171 Public Works memo of June 29 recommended council approve a contract with Stetson Engineers in the amount of $62,400. The Washington Park Well was planned to provide irrigation to the park, city hall and other parks in the area and to also provide irrigation water to Burlingame High School. The school and city staffs have been discussing this for c d e f IBB o over a year and the school board approved the project at their June 2 meeting. The well's storage tank will be constructed on school property adjacent to the school's existing 50,000 gallon tank. The school's one well will be abandoned and a new tank, building and related facilities will be constructed to connect the tanks to the school's fields. The school district will pay $8,500 in engineering and $38,800 in construction costs through an override on the water sold them from the well. WASHINGTON PARK City Manager's memo of June 27 recommended council approve plans for the Community Picnic on Sunday, September 18 from noon to 5 p.m. in Washington Park. This year there are no plans to sell beer and wine. The city cost for the event would be approximately $350. h.ENCROACHMENT PERMIT FOR EXISTING BRICK WALL AND EXISTING GARAGE AT 211 CHAPIN LANE Public Works memo of June 29 recommended council approve this permit subject to conditions that the property be surveyed and corners set to determine the exact extent of the encroachments. i.

Staff replied the restaurant use was part of the use permit. Mayor O'Mahony noted opposition to the increased booking fee proposed by county. NEW BUSINESS Councilman Pagliaro discussed the state of the sidewalks on Burlingame Avenue, one merchant had approached him about installing brick at his business at his own expense; Councilman Pagliaro was also concerned about the unattractive trash cans and the street lights.
