ments of Section 6.23 of the Zoning Ordinance.

V-IJ1S
November 8, 1971
V-lIS, variance request of Rudolph W. Finsterbusch to construct a
detached garage, which fails to meet the bulk and setback require-
ments of the Zoning Ordinance, at No. 672 Myrtle Avenue, in the R-l
District.
Secretary Pass read the following reports and letters into the record.
Report & Recommendation of City Planner Daniel M. Pass
"The Planning Office respectfully recommends that the Planning
Commission adopt the "findings" and action indicated in the
attached, preliminary Official Action Report."
FINDINGS:
"1. There are no substantial exceptions or extraordinary circum-
stances or conditions applying to the land or building referred
to in the application, which circumstances or conditions do not
apply generally to land or buildings in the same district.
2. The granting of the application is not necessary for the
preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights of the
petitioner.
3. That the granting of the application will, under the circumstances
of the particular case, materially affect adversely the health or
safety of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the
property of the applicant, and will, under the circumstances of the
particular case, be materially detrimental to the public welfare or
injurious to property or improvements in said neighborhood.
4. The granting of the requested variance would not be in harmony
with the general purpose of the Zoning Ordinance.
5. The requested variance is not necessary to prevent practical
difficulties, unnecessary hardships, and results inconsistent with
the general purpose of the Zoning Ordinance.
6. While the subject building site has a depth and square-footage
which are 8% below standard, the applicant's petition embodies a
request for a 60% variance in the maximum-rear-yard coverage per-
mitted under the Zoning Ordinance. The granting of this variance,
therefore, would not be substantially supported by the physical
deficiencies in the subject building site, and would be tantamount
to the granting of a special privilege."
Letter, dated November 7, 1971, from Brigid Butler, 104 West Orange Ave.
"I, Brigid Butler, am the neighbor and owner of the property on
the north side of the Finsterbusch's and have no objection to
them rebuilding the wall of their garage on the line it now stands."
Letter, dated November 7, 1971, from Samiuela Katoa, 674 Myrtle Ave., SSF
iiI, Samiuela Katoa, am the neighbor and owner of the property on the
west side of the Finsterbusch's and have no objection to them re-
building the wall of their garage on the line it now stands."

PM-87
November 8, 1971
PM-87, tentative Parcel Map of Reichhold Chemical Co., representing the
subdivision of 5.281+ acres of land, located on the easterly side of
South Maple Avenue, about 370' southerly of Victory Avenue, in the
M-l-H District.
Secretary Pass read the following report and letters into the Record.
"The proposed subdivision meets the requirements of the State Sub-
division Map Act, and the regulatory standards of the Subdivision
Ordinance of the City of South San Francisco. While the panhandle
configuration of proposed Parcel "2" contravenes the guidelines of
modern, residential platting, it cannot substantially support a
denial of an industrial subdivision. The subject parcel's 100'
frontage on South Maple Avenue tends to ameliorate its design problems.
Proposed Parcels "1 II and "3" would be standard, small industrial lots,
and could readily accommodate small industrial facilities and the
amenities required by the Planning Commission.
In light of the above factors, the Office of the City Planner
respectfully recommends that the Planning Commission approve the
instant tentative parcel map upon the condition that the subdivider
comply with the submitted requirements of the City's Department Heads."
Interoffice Memorandum, dated October 27, 1971 from Louis H. Goss,
Director of Public Works
"This office recommends approval of said Marcel map provided the Final
Map complies with all applicable sections of Ordinance 603 and the
Subdivision Map Act. A note shall be added to the map indicating that
all new construction on the created lots shall have a finished floor
elevation of not less than 13.8 feet when referred to the City of South
San Francisco datum. This is the minimum floor elevation suggested
by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers to protect against property damage
in the event of the occurrence of a 100-year flood."
Interoffice Memorandum, dated October 29, 1971, from Leonard Pittz,
Chief Building Inspector
"I have examined the Tentative Parcel Map, PM-87 being a resubdivision
of the Lands of Reichold Chemical Co., Inc. Parcel 19 of Assessor's
Map of South San Francisco, No. 25 and recommend approval."
Interoffice Memorandum, dated November I, 1971, from William A. Fox,
Fire Marshal
"It is required by this department that a sixteen (16) foot roadway
be maintained between Parcell and the metal building on Parcel 2.
Also that the fire main feeding the building on Parcel 2 must be
relocated so that no part of the line encroaches upon Parcell."

GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT
November 8, 1971
Proposed amendment to the Circulation Element and Plan Diagram of the
General Plan: "The General Circulatory Plan of Point San Bruno &
Envi rons . "
Secretary Pass read the following report and letters into the record.
Report of City Planner Daniel M. Pass
"The proposed amendment to the Circulation Element of the General
Plan is designed to substantially finalize the projected street
pattern in the Point San Bruno area of the Cabot-Utah Industrial
Neighborhood, and to bring the Element into a state of consonancy
with the approved plats of the Cabot, Cabot and Forbes Industrial
Park and adjacent territories. The effectuation of the said pro-
jected street pattern would provide South San Francisco's prime
industrial complex, and its incipient Shoreline Regional Park with
a high level of land service, and an excellent network of traffic
service-oriented arteries and industrial collectors.
The Planning Department therefore respectfully recommends that the
Planning Commission adopt the attached, preliminary resolution,
and thereby recommend that the City Council adopt the attached
Exhibit A, entitled "The General Circulatory Plan of Point San
Bruno & Environs" as an amendment to the Circulation Element of
the General Plan, and the Plan Diagram thereof."
Letter, dated October 19, 1971 from John Walker, City Planner of the
City of Daly City
"Thank you for referring the proposed amendment to the Circulation
Element of the General Plan: the projected street pattern of
Cabot-Utah Industrial Neighborhood.
The office of the City Planner for the City of Daly City finds the
proposed amendment to be in no way a development that would affect
the City of Daly City, and therefore, makes no comment upon the
validity of said proposed plan amendment.
We wish the City of South San Francisco well in its development of
the Cabot-Utah Industrial Neighborhood and we trust and hope that
the "incipient Shoreline Regional Park" will not remain in that
status for any prolonged length of time."
Letter, dated October 27, 1971, from Thomas G. Bertken, Deputy Director
of Airports
"Thank you for your Urban Planning Analysis and Proposed Amendment
to the Circulation Element of the General Plan dated October 18, 1971.
We appreciate being apprised of chill1ges in the neighboring communities
that may have some influence on the operations at the San Francisco
International Airport. The proj ected street pattern of "Cabot-Utah"
does not directly affect the Airport, but it will certainly contribute
to easier access for your industrial area tenants for any business they
have at the Airport, including our maj or cargo areas."

GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT
November 8, 1971
Letter, dated November 3, 1971, from Donald J. Bruzzone, Cabot, Cabot
& Forbes California Properties, INc., 100 California St., SF
"Cabot, Cabot & Forbes has reviewed and is in general agreement with
your recent proposed resolution with attached Exhibit A, except for
the following specific point:
The extension of Forbes Boulevard to the south and east beyond
its present intersection with Point San Bruno Boulevard should
be deleted from the plan, inasmuch as it deviates from the
tentative and final maps with which we initiated the subdivision.
The proposed extension as shown on the resolution exhibit serves
only the area immediately adjacent to the Forbes Boulevard/Point San
Bruno Boulevard intersection, and is not through in nature. This
area would better be served in our opinion by a street system
emanating from specific site plans which would optimize land use
in that area. The subject cul-de-sac was first shown on the
tentative map dated December 1968, but only extended some 450
lineal feet beyond the subject intersection, and was illustrated
by dashed lines only, to indicate a possible future street if ever
desired. The final map for this subdivision tract did not show
the cul-de-sac at all.
Thank you for the opportunity of reviewing this resolution."

STREET VACATION
November 8, 1971
Civil Engineer Louis A. Arata's Request that a Certain 2900 square-
feet of Chestnut Avenue right-of-way, located at the most easterly
corner of Chestnut Avenue and Antoinette Lane in C-I District, be
vacated by the City of South San Francisco. (Referred to the Planning
Commission by the City Council)
(Continued from the meeting of October 12, 1971)
Secretary Pass read the following reports, letter and resolution into
the record.
Report and Recommendation of City Planner Pass
"Since the subject right-of-way is not required for the accommodation
of the widening of the Chestnut Avenue link of the Westborough
Expressway, the Planning Department respectfully recommends that the
Planning Commission recommend that the Honorable City Council approve
the requested vacation upon the condition that the City reserve the
sewer easement required by the City Engineer.
The proposed vacation would improve the land-use potential of the
commercially-zoned territory at the most easterly corner of Chestnut
Avenue and Antoinette Lane."
Letter, dated September 14, 1971, from Louis A. Arata to Mr. Gale
Dreisbach, City Manager, City of South San Francisco.
"Our Ref. No. l320-F - Request for abandonment of a portion of
Chestnut Av~. At the Southeast corner of Chestnut Ave &
Antoinette Lane, South San Francisco, California
"Enclosed is a plat showing a portion of the existing right of way
of Chestnut Avenue that is no longer used for street purposes, and
a legal description of the same area. Sometime in the past it was
decided that Chestnut Avenue had to be realigned in the area of
concern because of its then existing poor intersection with Mission
Road and El Camino Real. The realignment culminated with a Quit
Claim by California Water Service Company to the City of South San
Francisco (City Resolution No. 1431, adopted 4 April, 1949). At
that time, the unused portion of the old right way was not abandoned.
Subsequently, with the recent Westborough Boulevard Extension project,
the County of San Mateo determined the extent of need and condemned a
portion of the unused old right of way. This leaves a clearly unneeded
remainder of the old right of way except for a sanitary sewer crossing
the area and in use. The Crocker Citizens National Bank, fee title
owners of the remaining old street right of way wish to remove this
'encumberance from their property, since it no longer serves a useful
purpose as a road. (The old right of way came about through public
use, not through any formal document.) I have discussed this matter
with City Engineer Lou Goss, and he is in agreement that the parcel
may be abandoned as long as a 10-foot wide easement is reserved for
the benefit of the City for the sanitary sewer that crosses the
parcel. On behalf of the owners, I respectfully request that the City
abandon this old unused street right of way retaining the necessary
sewer easement reserve as outlined above."

RZ-22
November 8~ 1971
RZ-22, petition of Phyllis Feudale to rezone an 8410 sq. ft. lot,
located at No. 520 Spruce Avenue, from "R-l", Single-family
Residential District, to "R-2", Duplex Residential District.
Secretary Pass read the following reports and letter into the record.
Report and recommendation of City Planner Daniel M. Pass
"The Planning Department has perused the petitioned rezoning of
Mrs. Phyllis Feudale, and has performed a city-planning survey
of the subject lot and adj acent territories. The fo llowing
analysis and recommendation are founded upon this perusal and
survey.
1. The South San Francisco Planning Commission, on April 28,
1959, conditionally approved the resubdivision of the subject
lot into two parcels of land. This resubdivision permits the
applicant to construct a second single-family dwelling on her
8410 sq.-ft. of land.
2. All of the lots in adjacency to the subject lands are
classified "R-l". Except for the Spruce School and two pre-
bellum duplexes (or four single-family townhouses), each of the
said lots is developed with a single-family dwelling.
3. Since the petitioned rezoning is not supported by the zonal
or land use patterns of the Spruce-Park Way area, its enactment
into ordinance would constitute a "spot zoning".
RECOMMENDATION
"The Planning Department respectfully recommends that the Planning
Commission recommend that the Honorable City Council deny the in-
stant rezoning petition.
*Notwithstanding this recommendation the Department recognizes that
the Spruce Avenue-Park Way area might eventually be converted into
a planned apartment-house district, in accordance with the long-
range, comprehensive, and general plan of the City of South San
Francisco. This conversion~ however, can not be orderly if it is
brought to fruition on a premature, piecemeal, or mixed-use basis."
