Okay,
don't
see
anybody
all
right,
any
conflicts
of
interest,
seeing
none
all
right
when
Wong
first
out
of
my
business,
this
is
a
request
for
a
use
permit
to
operate
a
martial
art
studio
with
in
the
CBD
central
business
zone,
indistinct
and
parking
exception
to
allow
conversion
from
a
photo
retail
center
to
a
martial
art
studio
without
providing
additional
parking
for
chapters
1296,
120
c
7
and
12
100
120
of
the
san
berdo
zoning
ordinance
staff
report.
Please
thank.
F
F
It
is
important
to
note
that
the
architectural
review
committee
recently
approved
this
project
for
facade
funding
to
update
this
storefront
and
an
adjacent
storefront
that
particular
project
included
new
paint
for
the
entire
structure,
a
new
awning
awning
feature
that
will
incorporate
signage
as
well
as
a
new,
transparent
window
pane
regarding
the
Taekwondo
biz
Taekwondo
business.
The
hours
of
operation
will
be
12
p.m.
2
930
p.m.
monday
through
friday
and
9am
to
3pm
on
saturdays.
The
applicant
has
indicated
that
appointments
will
be
offered
on
Sundays
between
the
hours
of
11am
and
4pm.
F
F
When
analyzing
this
project
from
a
use
permit
standpoint,
staff
was
looking
into
a
number
of
factors
in
any
downtime
downtown
environment.
Really
what
you
want
is
active
storefronts
that
are
open
during
daytime
hours.
In
this
instance,
this
sword
front
will
be
open
during
daytime
hours.
The
I
stated
the
applicant
will
introduce
a
retail
component
that
is
consistent
with
other
hours
of
operation
of
the
surrounding
retail
businesses
in
the
downtown
environment,
also,
as
a
result
of
this
project
we're
getting
an
updated
storefront.
F
So
this
will
not
only
help
the
proposed
business
but
will
also
greatly
improve
the
overall
look
at
the
downtown
environment
and
lastly,
as
a
result
of
this,
business
will
be
increased
foot
traffic
downtown,
which
is
good
for
the
business
and
good
for
the
greater
downtown
environment
regarding
parking.
The
previous
retail
tenant
required
one
space
per
250
square
feet
of
gross
floor
area,
and
the
martial
arts
studio
requires
one
space
with
200
square
feet
of
gross
floor
area.
This
results
in
a
net
difference
of
two
parking
spaces.
F
As
a
result,
staff
did
conduct
a
parking
survey
and
we
looked
at
three
different
parking
lots.
City-Owned
parking
lots
downtown
when
you
combine
the
overall
parking
area,
a
total
of
185
parking
spaces
are
included
within
that
parking
study
area.
We
conducted
counts
on
three
different
occasions
twice
during
the
daytime
hours
and
once
during
the
evening
hours,
the
daytime
hours
resulted
in
a
56%
occupancy
rate
and
the
evening
hours
resulted
in
a
forty
three
percent
occupancy
rate.
Overall,
the
results
of
the
study
indicate
that
there
is
enough
parking
downtown
to
support
this
parking
exception.
F
A
G
G
All
my
life
I
can't
leave
it
growing
up
in
South,
San
Francisco
I
personally
have
been
in
the
martial
arts,
since
I
was
17
eight
years
with
my
master
instructor
13
in
daly
city
and
now
my
lifelong
dream
of
having
my
own
school
has
become
a
reality,
and
I
thank
you
once
again.
I
believe
that
by
being
a
part
of
this
community,
I've
already
in
the
last
month,
have
seen
many
families
walk
up
and
down
the
street.
G
A
A
E
C
E
C
A
Okay
item
number
two:
this
is
a
request
for
parking
exception
to
allow
conversion
from
a
computer
repair
store,
20
khabar.
I
hope
I
pronounced
that
right.
Okay,
good
hookah
bar,
but
thank
you
thought
of
anyone
without
providing
additional
parking
for
chapter
12,
100
120,
the
san
bruno
zoning
ordinance
staff.
F
Thank
you.
As
stated,
the
applicant
has
applied
for
a
parking
exception
to
establish
a
hookah
bar
within
the
central
business
zone
ii
district.
The
site
is
located
on
samet,
o
avenue
on
the
west
side
of
the
street
and
the
500
block,
and
it's
located
directly
adjacent
to
the
taekwondo
business.
Again.
The
architects
review
committee
did
approve
this
project
for
facade
flooding,
which
included
new
paint
for
the
entire
structure
and
a
new
awning
with
signage
I'm.
Regarding
the
hookah
bar,
the
proposed
hours
of
operation
will
be
Sunday
through
Thursday
1
p.m.
F
to
midnight
and
on
Fridays
and
Saturdays.
It
would
be
open
between
1pm
and
2
a.m.
it
is
important
to
note
that
a
hookah
bar
is
a
permitted
use
within
the
central
business
zone
ii
district.
So
the
old
only
item
we're
looking
into
tonight,
is
the
parking
so
we're
strictly
looking
at
the
parking
aspect
of
this
business
regarding
the
parking
the
previous
retail
tenant
required.
A
one
space
for
250
square
feet
of
gross
floor
area
and
the
proposed
hookah
bar
requires
one
space
per
100
square
feet
of
gross
floor
area.
F
This
results
in
a
net
difference
of
11
parking
spaces
staff
conducted
the
same
parking
analysis
for
this
proposed
hookah
bar
as
we
did
for
the
Taekwondo
business.
Again,
we
analyzed
three
sites.
The
total
area
has
185
parking
spaces
during
the
daytime
hours,
the
occupancy
rate
was
fifty-six
percent
and
during
the
evening
hours
the
Aqua
sea
rate
was
forty-three
percent.
It
is
important
to
note
that
the
parking
demand
significantly
decreases
during
the
later
evening
hours
as
many
of
the
proposed.
Many
of
the
businesses
are
closed.
F
Therefore,
the
overall
results
of
the
study
indicate
that
there
is
enough
parking
downtown
to
support
this
use.
Staff
supports
this
project
and
recommends
that
the
Planning
Commission
approve
the
parking
exception,
subject
to
conditions
of
approval
1
through
15
I'm
available
for
any
questions
that
you
may
have
Thank.
F
F
D
A
D
D
D
H
Maybe
yeah
I
mean
I
don't
know
the
building
perfectly,
but
I
think
the
Taekwondo
doesn't
have
really
have
an
exit
out.
The
back
because
you're
talking
about
the
bike
racks
in
the
mena
back,
I'm
guessing
right
that
don't
they
enter,
don't
they
exit
towards
really
the
neighbor's
yard,
where
the
hookah
bar
it
has
a
sigh
temptress.
That
goes
until
that
mini
parking
lot.
The.
F
H
A
I
Hey
you
guys
in
today.
My

A
A
E
C
A
A
Alright,
the
next
item
on
our
agenda
is
request
for
a
conditional
use
permit
to
install
a
wireless
telecommunications
facility
within
a
residential
zoning
district
on
a
joint
utility
pole
in
the
public
right-of-way

of
the
san
bruno
zoning
ordinance
report.
Please.
F
Thank
you,
as
stated,
the
applicant
has
applied
for
a
use
permit
to
establish
a
new
wireless
facility
within
a
residential
zoning
district.
As
you
know,
the
project
is
located
within
the
public
right-of-way
adjacent
to
1736
niles
Avenue.
The
applicant
is
proposing
to
utilize
an
existing
public
utility
pole.
Three
antennas
would
be
unstoppable,
as
well
as
for
associated
equipment
cabinets
on
the
base
of
the
pole.
The
project
has
been
reviewed
by
the
architecture
review
committee
once
and
by
the
Planning
Commission.
On
two
separate
occasions.
The
Planning
Commission
has
expressed
concern
regarding
design
of
the
proposed
facility.
F
Specifically,
the
commissioners
felt
that
the
proposed
facility
was
inconsistent
with
the
stealth
requirement
found
within
the
Municipal
Code.
Additionally,
the
Planning
Commission
expressed
concern
the
applet
that
the
applicant
did
not
fully
explore
other
sites
that
would
meet
their
gap
in
coverage
and
that
would
meet
the
stealth
requirement
within
the
zoning
code
when
the
applicant
was
originally
when
the
application
was
originally
submitted.
The
Afghans
stated
that
the
parkside
school
site
would
meet
the
gap
in
coverage.
However,
they
did
never
fully
pursue
or
investigate
that
side.
F
The
commissioners
also
expressed
concern
that
the
applicant
did
not
fully
investigate
other
equipment
storage
opportunities,
such
as
storing
the
equipment
underground.
Because
of
these
concerns,
the
staff
has
included
findings
of
denial
within
the
staff
report.
It
is
important
to
note
that
the
applicant
will
be
presenting
alternative
site
designs
tonight,
and
these
alternative
designs
were
not
included
within
your
staff
report,
as
they
are
not
located
at
the
subject
site
but
are
located
at
different
sites
with
that,
I
will
turn
it
over
to
the
community
development
director
would
like
to
share
additional
information
regarding
the
proposed
facility.

1855
gateway
boulevard,
concord.
California
t-mobile
would
like
to
request
the
continuance
to
explore
the
new
design
at
the
1772
niles
avenue
property,
which
is
directly
adjacent
to
the
pole.
We
are
entering
into
lease
negotiations
to
locate
the
equipment
in
the
rear
yard,
and
you
know
t-mobile
is
also
willing
to
waive
any
shot
clock
restrictions.
If
that's
a
concern.
A
C
L
If
you
continue
it
based
on
the
representation
of
the
t-mobile
representative,
that
they
would
waive
the
FCC
timeframes
for
acting
on
this
application
and
provided
they
so
put
that
in
writing,
which
I
understand
that
they
would.
Then
you
would
stop
the
clock
as
of
today
where
we
are
and
that
clock
would
not
resume
until
my
understanding
is.
The
next
hearing
is
what
they
were
proposing,
so
you
would
have
from
that
next
hearing
and
any
time
that
you
still
had
remaining
as
the
city
agency
as
of
today.
A
K
K
D
L
A
And
if
the
applicant
decides
to
in
the
event
that
it
was
denied,
I
have
no
idea,
but
then
they
could.
Their
choice.
Give
me
to
appeal
it
to
the
city
council
grant
and
then
what
would
happen
after
that
I
mean.
Let's,
hypothetically
far
as
the
time
clock
is
concerned,
let's
say
the
council,
you
know
agreed
and
United
or
agreed,
and
but
you
know
the
applicant
what's
the
time
frame
on
either
one
of
those
scenarios
and.
L
H
H
A
K
H
A
You
very
much
okay.
The
next
item
is
a
request
for
a
conditional
use
permit
to
install
a
wireless
telecommunications
facility
within
a
residential
zoning
district
on
a
joint
utility
pole

the
san
bruno
zoning
ordinance
this
staff
report.
Please
thank.
F
You,
as
stated
the
applicant,
has
applied
for
use
permit
to
establish
a
new
wireless
facility
within
a
residential
zoning
district.
This
is
fairly
similar
to
the
site
that
we
just
reviewed.
The
1736
Niles
Avenue
site
would
be
located
in
the
public
right-of-way
adjacent
to
1439,
Park
Avenue
and
would
be
proposed
to
be
located
on
an
existing
utility
pole
again
that
architects
review
committee
and
the
Planning
Commission
reviewed
this
project.
The
Planning
Commission
expressed
concern
regarding
for
design
of
the
proposed
facility.
Specifically
the
commissioners,
felt
that
stealth
design
was
not
being
met.
F
Additionally,
the
Planning
Commission
expressed
concern
that
the
applicant
did
not
fully
explore
other
sites
that
would
meet
their
gap
in
coverage
and
would
meet
the
stealth
requirement
within
the
zoning
code.
Based
on
these
concerns,
staff
has
included
findings
of
denial
within
the
staff
report,
I'm
available
for
any
questions
that
you
may
have.
Thank.
A
F
C
B
Mean
I
usually
don't
put
what
the
public
opinion
I
use
the
public
afib.
You
know
public's
opinion
to
help
form
our
recommendation,
but
I
don't
put
the
fact
that
a
public
is
four
against
a
project
within
the
findings
of
approval
themselves,
but
I
think
the
wording
within
the
finding
of
approval.
The
fact
that
it
looks
out
of
place
within
a
residential
neighborhood,
does
reflect
some
of
the
public
sentiment.
B
We
didn't
include
them
the
application
themselves
in
the
application,
or
we
didn't
want
it
to
affect
how
we
comprised
our
findings
for
denial.
But
we
did
say
that
they
could
show
you.
What
are
there
some
other
thoughts
of
how
to
locate,
to
get
some
initial
feedback
from
the
Planning
Commission,
with
the
understanding
that
this
is
just
initial
feedback.
Nothing
binding
you're,
going
to
have
a
full
chance
to
review
this
through
a
full
new
process
when
it
comes
to
just
a
courtesy
extended
to
the
applicant
that
that's.
E
E
A
Thank
you
any
other
comments
way.
Commission's
any
questions
of
the
applicant.
No
okay,
I
can
open
up
to
the
public.
Anybody
in
the
public
wishing
to
speak
on
the
side,
and
would
you
please
step
to
the
podium
and
state
your
name.
Nope
I
am
going
to
now
closed
public
airing,
bring
it
back
to
the
commissioners
for
discussion
or
a
motion.
Editor.
H
C
C
E
B
That's
fine,
that's
fine!
To
give
the
applicant
some
credit.
They
did
take
direction
from
what
some
of
the
suggestions
that
the
Planning
Commission
had
four
other
site
locations
and
have
incorporated
them
into
these
new
photo
simulations.
So
when
it
does
come
back
up
to
the
architecture
review
committee,
I
think
everyone
will
be
pleased
with
their
progress.
Great.
