B
C
B
A
Thank
you,
madeline
all
right
item,
two
public
comments
for
items
not
on
the
agenda.
If
there's
anyone
in

items
that

If
you'd,
let

know
if
anyone's
got
their
hands
raised.
A
A
C
A
Okay,
very
good.
So
let's
move
on
with
the
first
item
then,
which
is
for
a
1550
el
camino
reality
request
for
a
use
permit
presented
to
section
1284-210
of
the
san
bernardino
municipal
code
to
obtain
a
type
70
abc
license
to
allow
on-site,
sale
and
consumption
of
alcohol
beverages
at
an
existing
hotel
staff
report.
Please.
F
F
B
F
So
this
application
for
use
perma
is
at
the
lower
end
of
el
camino,
real
near
the
southern
city
limit
with
the
city
of
millbrae.
It
is
currently
an
mxr
multi-use.
Residential
zoning
district
does
recommend
that
planning
commission
approve
this
use
permit,
based
on
the
findings
and
conditions
of
approval
enclosed.
F
This
type
of
license
is
limited
to
a
hotel's
overnight
guests
and
their
invites
only
this
proposal
would
allow
the
operators
of
hotel
1550
to
furnish
alcoholic
beverages
for
consumption
within
the
existing
breakfast
area
and
individual
guest
rooms.
The
hotel
operators
would
like
to
add
many
bars
in
each
of
the
guest
rooms
and
also
offer
a
manager's
happy
hour
for
marketing
purposes.
F
So
this
hotel
was
originally
approved
in
1997.
The
original
used
permit
and
conditions
are
attached
to
the
the
agenda
item.
It
was
originally
opened
as
days
in
in
2000
and
hotel.
1550
was
established
here
in
february
2020.,
so
originally
this
site
was
zoned
as
c
general
commercial,
where
a
use
permit
was
required
to
open
a
hotel
in
this
zoning
district.
However,
with
the
april
9
2021
zoning
update
this
site
became
mxr
multi-use
residential
focus
where
hotel
hotel
is
now
a
permitted
use
without
a
use
permit.
So
planning
commission
is
only
planning
a
commission.
F
So
the
community
and
economic
development
department,
as
well
as
the
police
department,
have
reviewed
this
application
and
included
conditions
of
approval
for
both
public
hearing
notices
were
mailed
on
april
9th.
However,
up
until
this
time
there
has
been
no
public
comment
received
on
this
item.
It
is
exempt
from
sqa
based
on
class
1
existing
facilities.
F
The
site
is
located
at
the
southern
end
of
el
camino,
real
adjacent
to
the
city
of
millbrae.
It
is
a
48
room,
hotel
and
along
a
well-developed
commercial
corridor,
surrounded
by
other
restaurants,
retail
stores,
banks,
professional
services
and
similar
uses
behind
the
hotel.
There
are
residential
uses,
however,
within
the
general
vicinity
up
and
down
el
camino
realities,
commercial
uses,
multi-use,
residential
and
the
city
of
millbrae
commercial
zoning
districts,
as
mentioned
there
has
been
no
comments
received
yet
at
this
time.
F
However,
for
the
san
bruno
municipal
code,
section
12.84
0.210,
a
used
permit
is
required
to
sell,
serve
and
consume
alcoholic
beverages
at
this
hotel.
Currently,
there
are
no
other
additional
uses
at
the
site,
such
as
restaurants,
as
mentioned,
it
is
located
along
an
established
commercial
corridor.
There's
several
other
restaurants,
banks,
retail
stores
and
a
liquor
store
nearby,
so
staff
does
not
foresee
that
consumption
of
alcohol
at
this
site
will
cause
future
problems
for
the
neighborhood.
F
In
addition,
this
is
not
intended
to
be
a
primary
source
of
income
at
the
site
and
will
be
limited
to
just
an
option
for
guests
in
their
personal
room,
as
well
as
limited
managers
happy
hour
on
certain
days
of
the
week.
The
police
department
has
reviewed
this
request
and
provided
clearance
and
also
included,
recommended
conditions
of
approval.
F
F
A
H
Yes,
hi,
yes,
hi
our
fellow
commissioners
and
staff.
Thank
you
very
much
brandon
for
the
intro,
so
my
name
is
vipol
dayal.
My
in-laws
have
owned.
This
hotel
says
2006.
Since
it
was
a
days
inn
and
I've
been
running
it.
My
wife
and
I
have
been
running
it
since
2009.,
and
so
what
we
are
proposing
here
on
a
very
very
high
level
is
to
keep
everything
local
trying
to
attract
business.
You
know
like
like
brandon
mentioned.
H
There
was
not
this
amenity
quote:
unquote
featured
in
other
hotels,
so
we're
trying
to
bring
people
to
san
bruno
to
get
tots
and
to
just
keep
them
here
here
in
san
bruno.
So
that's
the
major.
That's
like
the
overall
40
000.
You
know
elevation
idea
behind
this.
Again.
It's
just
used
as
an
amenity
and
not
like
a
primary
source
of
income
and
yeah.
We
we
have
a
portfolio
of
nine
hotels,
total
and
our
other.
Two
hotels
also
offer
this
they're,
not
here
in
california,
but
they're
in
texas.
B
A
B
I
H
Yeah
great
great
question
so
pre-covered
we
used
to
have
breakfast,
but
right
now
we
don't
have
breakfast,
but
our
plan
is
to
have
on
the
go
breakfast.
But
during
these
events
we
actually
want
to
get
with
local
san
bruno
restaurants
and
have
it
pair
with
you
know
like
a
manager's
hour
where
we
have.
You
know
we
limit
consumption,
obviously,
but
we
also
have
a
restaurant
come
in
and
showcase
whatever
they
have
and
bring
whatever
they
have.
So
they
could
experience
san
bruno
local
life.
H
E
My
impression
is
that
typically,
like
alcohol
consumption
in
hotels
is
not
you
don't
tend
to
have
problem
drinkers,
the
way
you
might
with
sort
of
a
dive
bar
or
something
that
that's
pretty
well
regulated.
I
don't
know
if
you've
had
any
experience
with
customers
becoming
unruly
and
how
that's
handled.
H
So
sorry
was
it
so
the
question
was:
if
there's
a
bar
there,
if
there's
going
to
be
a
bar,
there's
only
going
to
be
many
bars,
but
potentially
many
bars
inside
the
rooms
themselves,
and
when
brandon
mentioned
like
a
happy
hour,
the
manager
will
do
all
that
all
the
alcohol
stuff
normally
is
behind
the
office
in
the
back
office.
And
it's
only
given.
You
know
as
needed.
H
A
B
H
J
So
in
response
to
your
happy
hour-
and
you
said
as
needed,
so
there
truly
isn't
a
happy
hour.
If
people
want
to
replenish,
then
they
would
contact
you
a
happy
hour.
I
interpret
it
as
more
of
a
social,
that's
being
offered.
There's
someone
serving
drinks,
sometimes
there's
snacks
there
and
it's
typically
not
done
in
the
smaller
hotels
as
yours
as
this
type
rather.
But
so
I
just
want
to
get
clarification
that
your
this
is
not
the
typical
happy
hour.
H
I'm
sorry
if
I
mentioned
happy
hour
it's
by
far
it's
100
not
a
happy
hour,
it's
more
of
a
like
a
meet
and
greet
type
situation
or
where
the
manager
comes
in,
or
you
know,
the
assistant
manager
comes
in
and
tries
to
guess
gets
to
know
the
guests
on
a
more
personal
level
and
what
that
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
to
find
out
where
these
people
are
coming
from
and
then
do
some
more
research.
It's
all
it's
more
for
marketing
actually
play
than
it
is
for
the
actual.
J
A
Okay,
were
there
any
other
questions
for
the
applicant
at
this
point?
Anyone,
okay,
we're
going
to
open
it
up
to
the
public
for
comment.
If
there's
anyone
in
the
public
that
would
like
to
speak
once
again,
it's
zoom,
you
just
raise
your
hand
and
if
you're
on
the
phone
it's
starting
and
madeline,
do
we
have
anyone
with
their
hands
raised.
D
A
D
A
Thank
you
right
at
that
point,
we'll
move
on
to
item
4b,
which
is
659
huntington.
It's
a
request
to
amend
the
use.
Permit
and
architectural
review
permit
to
expand
an
existing
gaming
facility
at
artichoke
joe's
pursuing
to
nine
12.96
point
one:
two:
zero
and
twelve
point:
one
zero,
eight
point:
zero
one:
zero
of
the
same
principle,
seeing
municipal
code
staff
report,
please,
mr.
E
K
Right
good
evening,
commissioners,
michael
smith,
planning
department
staff,
so
the
request
before
you
is
for
a
use
permit
and
architectural
review
permit
to
allow
the
construction
of
exterior
architectural
improvements
and
a
3411
square
foot
addition
at
the
north
end
of
the
building.
That
would
enlarge
the
kitchen
and
add
a
storage
area
for
the
restaurant
associated
with
the
artichoke
joe's
casino,
and
this
is
located
at
659
huntington
avenue.
B
J
K
K
K
K
The
addition
will
be
topped
with
a
tall
rooftop
parapet
that
would
screen
the
rooftop
mounted
mechanical
equipment,
but
will
mimic
the
appearance
of
a
second
floor,
complete
with
faux
windows
and
at
the
second
floor
located
above
the
new
storage
room
would
be
a
new
office.
Storage
room
would
be
added
for
the
office
uses
on
the
second
floor
in
the
building.
K
So
a
little
bit
of
background
on
this
project.
This
project
actually
came
to
the
planning
commission
in
april
of
2019,
and
it
was
granted
a
use
permit
for
an
extension
of
similar
size.
It
was
actually
2
411
square
feet
at
that
time,
and
it
was
also
a
two-story
addition
at
the
north
northern
side
of
the
building
to
expand
the
kitchen
in
january
2020
prior
to
the
expiration
of
that
use.
K
This
project
has
been
reviewed
by
the
arc
for
a
second
time
because
it
was
approved.
It
was
reviewed
by
the
arc,
a
first
time
for
the
2019
review,
and
now
we
call
this
the
2021
review
most
recently,
the
arc
voted
in
july
of
2020
to
forward
the
project
voted
three,
nothing
to
forward
the
project
to
the
planning
commission,
with
staff's
recommendation
to
resurface
and
re-stripe
the
small
parking
lot
on
the
north
side
of
the
building,
and
that's
because
that
parking
lot
is
a
bit
scaled,
the
surface
and
the
signage.
In
that
parking
lot.
K
Since
the
arc's
recommendation
in
july
2020
what
happened?
Well,
the
covet
happened,
and
so
the
casinos
operations
actually
shifted
outdoors
and
so
proceeding
with
the
project
that
time
was
kind
of
an
unknown.
They
didn't
know
whether
or
not
they
were
going
to
be
able
to
move
forward
with
it.
They
already
had
their
operations
under
a
big
tent
in
the
parking
lot,
which
is
nearby
where
the
temporary
structures
were
going
to
go
so
things
were
put
on
hold
by
the
applicant
so
a
little
bit
about
the
the
improvements.
K
It
gives
a
little
bit
of
pedestrian
insurance
to
portions
of
the
building,
which
are
kind
of
blank
right
now,
at
the
at
the
street
level,
a
new
canop
new
aluminum
canopies
would
be
placed
over
the
windows
to
give
a
little
bit
of
a
pedestrian
scale,
and
the
second
floor
windows
would
be
faux
that
would
match
the
existing
faux
windows
along
the
west
facade
that
is
set
back
from
san
mateo
avenue.
Behind
the
parking
lot.
K
And
on
the
screen
now
is
the
back
portion.
This
is
the
northern
side
of
the
complex.
This
is
the
proposal,
so
you
can
see
the
nice
cornice
line
along
the
top
there.
This
is
the
loading
dock
down
here,
and
so
these,
these
all
take
get
a
big
improvement
over.
What's
there
right
now
which
what
you
see
right
now
is
a
chain
link
fence
and
kind
of
a
back
of
house
operations,
but
it
doesn't
work
that
well
considering
how
visible
it
is
as
one
enters
downtown
from
the
north.
K
So
the
the
this
area
was
chosen
for
its
location,
close
to
the
existing
casino
and
it's
able
so
that
there
would
be
less
conflict
between
food
servers
and
vehicular
traffic.
This
area
will
be
fenced
off
this
tup
area,
where
the
temporary
structures
are
going,
and
so
it
keeps
everything
kind
of
tight
so
that
you
don't
have
people,
because
they
they
have
space
for
such
facilities
in
other
parts
of
the
parking
lot,
but
they
would
have
a
lot
longer
walk
for
those
food
servers
to
reach
their
destination
with
the
food.
K
K
Overall
staff
finds
the
proposed
exterior
modifications
would
be
architecturally
consistent
with
the
alterations
that
were
made
to
artichoke
joe's
casino
in
2017
and
will
give
the
overall
complex
a
really
unified
architectural
theme.
Whereas
right
now
it
looks
like
a
series
of
disparate
buildings,
especially
as
you
get
more
towards
the
northern
side
of
the
development.
I
I
do
have
one
question
and
that
is
on.
I
remember
reviewing
this
in
2019
and
I
know
that
one
of
the
the
areas
that
was
being
added
one
of
the
the
functions
that
was
being
added
in
the
new
square
footage
was
a
room
for
a
lactation
room,
and
I
was
it
was
mentioned
again
in
this
report
that
it
there
was
one.
But
I
didn't
see
it
noted
in
the
floor
plan.
K
I
K
G
K
G
I
can
start
I'm
stephen
leslie,
the
architect
and,
as
michael
mentioned,
vince
dufrese,
the
president
of
art
show
joe's
is
also
present.
To
answer
questions.
I
guess
I'll
I'll
answer.
First,
the
lactation
room
in
the
in
the
new
drawings.
It's
where
the
lactation
room
was
gonna
go.
It
shows
a
janitor
room
because
we
we
swapped
it
so
the
lactation
room
has
already
been
established
and
is
in
the
old
part
of
the
card
room.
G
I
G
G
G
A
A
L
Like
michael
mentioned,
to
make
it
look
very
pleasant,
it's
we're
an
eyesore.
We
know
that
without
with
that
whole
north
side,
so
our
goal
and
very
proudly,
we
want
to
make
it
look.
So
when
people
come
to
downtown
san
bruno,
it
looks
beautiful
and
behind
the
scenes
are
our
buildings
just
literally
deteriorating.
L
A
I
J
B
K
K
A
Okay,
thank
you
and
I'd
like
to
make
one
comment
to
the
owners
and
the
architect.
Thank
you
for
your
patience
on
this
project.
This
seems
like
it's
been
years
in
the
process.
I
know
people
get
frustrated,
waiting
and
waiting
for
permits
and
things
to
get
projects
done.
So
thank
you
for
your
patience.
A

I
just
wanted
to
remark
as
a
member
of
the
public
and
the
resident
tech
nerd,
I
think
the
reason
that
you
were
having
trouble
with
getting
the
screen
share
from
our
applicant
is
that
he
was
promoted
to
a
participant
with
the
right
to
speak,
but
not
to
a
presenter.
So
if
you
did
want
to
see
the
the
new
rendering
you
would
need
to
promote
him
to
a
presenter,
and
then
you
can
take
this
as
90
humorous
and
10,
I
really
like
artichokes.

Yes,
I
served
on
the
architectural
review
and
I'm
really
glad
we
got
to
see
this
because
it's
reflected
some
of
the
thing
for
some
of
the
color
schemes,
with
the
brick
being
more
of
a
burgundy
and
the
background
was
brighter,
and
so
they
it
has
toned
down.
It's
still
a
little
on
the
bright
side,
but
it
looks
good
and
and
trying
to
get
it
away
from
a
christmas
look.
But
it
looks
very
festive
and
and
bright,
but
I'm
really
glad
that
when
you
get
that
chance
to
see
the.

Any
volunteers,
if
I
can
have
three
volunteers
for
the
may
architectural
review
hearing,
just
to
give
you
a
little
preview,
we
are
taking
a
number
of
the
residential
projects
to
the
architectural
review
board
for
review
and
possibly
a
subdivision
that
you
all
being
long
waiting
for
at
the
corner
of
san
bruno
and
glenview
terrace.
So
that
should
also
be
coming
to
architectural
review
committee.
First
then,
planning,
commission
and
then
the
city
council
for
final
approval.
I
know
that
it's
been
in
the
works
for
some
time,
and
this
is
exciting
year.

So
on
thursday
there
will
be
a
county
sponsored
webinar
talking
about
housing
and
our
regional
allocation
arena
number
vice
chair,
harman
attended
the
first
one
about
two
weeks
ago.
So,
as
I
mentioned,
this
is
hosted
by
the
san
mateo
county
and
also
the
21
elements
with
all
21
cities
talking
about
housing.
This
is
the
outreach
tool
as
far
as
the
housing
element
update.
So
on
thursday
night
april
22nd
from
six
o'clock
to
7
30,
there
will
be
a
webinar.
C
You
can
find
out
more
information
on
our
website,
as
well
as
the
county
website,
and
there's
is
also
a
post
on
the
next
door,
social
media.
So
the
focus
this
time
will
be
mainly
on
what
is
rena.
What
does
it
do?
How
does
it
tie
into
the
housing
element
and
how
basically
treat
it
as
arena
number
a
101
session?
So
if
you're
interested
definitely
sign
up
and
listen
in
and
also
if
you
like,
to
spread
out
the
words
for
us,
that'd
be
great
too.
I
A
E
Since
pamela
brought
it
up,
I
I
just
wanted
to
thank
the
staff
for
their
work
on
the
san
bruno
focused
portion
of
that
21
elements
event.
It
was
really
useful
information
and
I
I
thought
you
know
you
sometimes
have
these
events
and
and
people
can
be
heated
about
some
of
these
issues,
but
I
thought
that
the
san
bruno
breakout
was
just
a
tremendously
positive
conversation
that
the
contributions
from
our
our
friends
that
are
the
manager
of
tanforan
who
came
were
really
interesting,
and
I
thought
I
thought
it
was
a
great
session.
