San Bruno Planning Commission Meeting April 17, 2012
5B. 442 San Mateo Ave.
A
This
is
the
request
for
a
use
permit
to
allow
alcohol
beverage
sales
in
conjunction
with
the
restaurant
expansion
and
a
parking
exception
to
allow
conversion
from
a
retail
establishment
to
a
restaurant
without
providing
additional
parking
for
chapter
12,
96,
120
c
12
and
12
100
120
of
the
San
Bernardino
Civil
Code
step
aboard.
Please
thank.
B
At
that
time,
the
Planning
Commission
approved
a
use
permit
request
to
serve
alcoholic
beverages
in
conjunction
with
that
restaurant
and
a
parking
exception.
A
year
later,
in
2010,
the
Architectural
Review
Committee
approved
modifications
to
the
exterior
of
the
existing
structure
at
446,
a
metal
Avenue.
Those
improvements
included
new
granite
tile
tiles
for
the
entire
storefront,
a
brand
new
sign,
a
new
window
feature
and
new
paint
for
the
entire
sides
in
rear
of
the
building.
B
Due
to
the
recent
success
of
the
restaurant,
the
applicant
is
now
proposing
to
expand
into
the
existing
building
located
to
the
south
at
44
to
San
Mateo
Avenue.
The
overall
goal
of
the
expansion
is
to
gain
additional
seating
to
accommodate
larger
parties.
As
it
stands
right
now,
cleo's
doesn't
have
the
space
to
accommodate
larger
parties
for
birthday
celebrations,
anniversary
celebration
be
kind
of
special
event,
and
this
will
allow
him
to
do
so,
and
it
will
also
allow
him
to
accommodate
those
smaller
parties.
B
What
one
thing
that
makes
this
project
somewhat
unique
is
that
the
building
at
442
Sam
at
11
ooo,
is
on
a
separate
parcel
and
is
under
separate
property
ownership.
The
building
code
does
not
permit
openings
at
the
property
line.
However,
the
building
official
has
reviewed
the
request
and
has
placed
on
the
conduct
custom
condition
of
approval
requiring
automatic
fire
doors
at
all.
Openings
at
the
property
line.
B
The
use
permit,
requests
for
alcohol
sales
is
required.
Staff
did
route
this
to
the
police
department.
The
police
department
did
not
have
any
concerns
with
this
proposal
and
they
have
placed
the
standard
conditions
of
approval
on
the
project.
Additionally,
they
noted
that
they
have
not
received
any
alcohol-related
complaints
at
the
existing
restaurant
at
446
same
until
Avenue
I
might
look
to
point
your
attention
to
condition
of
approval
number
of
11,
which
does
permit
the
Community
Development
Director
to
call
the
project
back
to
the
Planning
Commission.
B
If
there
are
any
if
the
business
is
not
complying
with
the
performance
manners
or
conditions
of
approval
regarding
parking,
the
proposed
restaurant
expansion
requires
38
more
parking
spaces
in
the
previous
retail
use.
There
is
no
possible
way
to
create
parking
on
site
as
the
existing
business
covers
the
entire
site.
As
a
result,
staff
did
conduct
a
parking
analysis
for
for
Jason
parking
lots
and
these
specific
parking
lots
were
chosen
due
to
their
specific
location
and
their
close
proximity
to
the
subject
side
and
within
the
overall
parking
study
area.
B
There's
a
hundred
and
fifty
two
parking
spaces
and
we
did
actually
conduct
counts.
During
weekday
lunch
and
weekday
dinner
hours
when
combining
the
overall
parking
area,
the
occupancy
rate
was
61
percent
during
weekday
lunch
hours
and
sixty-nine
percent
during
weekday
dinner
hours.
So
the
results
essentially
state
that
there
is
enough
parking
to
support
the
proposed
restaurant
expansion.
Additionally,
this
is
less
than
the
eighty-five
percent
threshold
that
staff
considers
when
determining
if
an
area
is
parking.
B
Impacted
I'd
also
like
to
point
out
that
the
Architectural
Review
Committee
approved
exterior
changes
to
the
structure
at
44
to
san
mateo
avenue
at
last
week's
meeting.
Those
changes
involve
granite
tiles,
4442
time
until
evidence,
specifically
the
light
tan
tiles
will
be
continued
and
the
black
granite
tiles
will
also
be
continued.
The
awning
feature
will
also
be
expanded
in
the
south
to
the
south,
and
new
paint
is
also
proposed
for
the
front
sides
and
rear
of
the
building.
Overall
staff
is
supportive
of
the
project.
B
We
do
find
that
the
restaurant
expansion
will
be
a
positive
addition
to
the
san
mateo
avenue
and
we
would
recommend
that
the
Planning
Commission
approve
the
use
permit
and
parking
exception
request,
subject
to
the
conditions
of
approval
and
findings
effects,
one
through
seven
I'm
available
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have.
Thank
you
thanks.
C
C
D
Good
evening
clear
side,
the
big
in
the
recession
have
been
lost.
Almost
forty-five
percent
of
the
building
after
we
moved
to
the
san
mateo
avenue,
I'm
able
to
bring
bad
about
thirty
percent
of
this
business
and
we
still
have
a
lot
of
people
calling
asked
for
a
private,
a
dining
area
or
a
large
part
like
50
60
people,
and
we
not
have
this
private
look
space,
and
this
is
the
main
reason
we
try
to
get
the
space
approved
before
for
the
business.
