RESOLUTION NO. 39-2006
CITY COUNCIL, CITY OF SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO APPROVING A TENTATIVE
SUBDIVISION MAP, A DENSITY BONUS, AN AFFORDABLE
HOUSING AGREEMENT AND A DESIGN REVIEW ON A 0.41
ACRE SITE SITUATED AT 90 OAK AVENUE
WHEREAS, the South San Francisco Planning Commission held duly noticed public
hearings on April 20, 2006 and May 4, 2006; and
WHEREAS, as required by the "Amendment Procedures" (SSFMC Chapter 20.87), and
Title 19 (Subdivision Ordinance), the City Council, based on public testimony and the materials
submitted to the City of South San Francisco Planning Commission which include, but are not
limited to: an Affordable Housing Agreement prepared by the City of South San Francisco;
Architectural and Landscape Plans, dated July 20, 2005, prepared by Anthony M. Brandi,
Architect; Civil Drawings prepared by Brian Kangas Foulk dated February 3, 2006; Mitigated
Negative Declaration 01-054 previously adopted by the City Council on May 26, 2002; minutes
of the Design Review Board meeting of March 21, 2006; Planning Commission staff reports; the
April 20, 2006 and May 4, 2006, Planning Commission meetings; City Council staff reports; and
the City Council meeting of May 24, 2006, makes the following findings in support of Tentative
Subdivision Map, Density Bonus, and Affordable Housing Agreement with provisions for
Affordable Housing allowing a thirteen (13) unit residential condominium building on a 0.41
acre site located at 90 Oak Avenue, owned by Patrick Doherty:
1. The project is consistent with the provisions of the City's General Plan that support
residential development, and specifically with the Housing Element regarding the development
of additional market rate and affordable housing in the community to meet on-going demand.
The proposed density of 31.8 units per acre for the 0.41 acres to be developed with dwellings is
well within the overall density of 37.5 units per acre for the High Density Residential category
provided in the City's General Plan with the density increase permitted by the General Plan.
2. The 0.41 acre site is physically suited for the proposed single-family subdivision.
3. The development will create a residential environment of sustained desirability and
stability and will result in an intensity of land use similar to adjacent multi-family and single-
family neighborhoods. The proposed density of 31.8 units per acre and the general style and
quality of the new residences and site improvements is substantially similar to recently approved
subdivisions in the City.
4. A Mitigated Negative Declaration has been previously approved by the City Council
on May 26, 2005 for the project in accordance with the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Mitigated Negative Declaration 01-54, adopted by the
City Council on May 26, 2002, identifies several potential adverse impacts attributable to the
development of the thirteen (13) new residences. The impacts can be reduced to a less than
significant level through the implementation of mitigation measures. A Mitigation
Monitoring Program is established to ensure that impacts are reduced to a less than
significant level. Mitigation measures, including a mitigation monitoring program, have been
incorporated into the project or have been made conditions of approval which will reduce
identified impacts to a less than significant level.
5. The Tentative Subdivision Map allowing thirteen (13) residential condominiums and
common area, will not be adverse to the public health, safety, or general welfare of the
community, nor unreasonably detrimental to surrounding properties or improvements. The
use is compatible with the existing uses. Site improvements including the provision of
upgrades to the public infrastructure, and landscaping the yards, will reduce potential adverse
impacts to the public infrastructure, reduce circulation conflicts and provide a streetscape that
is comparable to the surrounding neighborhoods.
6. The thirteen (13) new residential condominiums, thirty (30) on-site parking spaces
and site landscaping comply with the City's Design Guidelines.
7. The residences comply with the applicable community design guidelines established
in the South San Francisco Municipal Code Sections 20.68 through 20.74. The design and
improvements are not in conflict with any known existing public easements.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of South
San Francisco that the City Council hereby approves Tentative Subdivision Map 06-0001,
Density Bonus 06-0001, the Affordable Housing Agreement 06-0001 and Design Review 06-
0015 subject to the Conditions of Approval contained in Exhibit B.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the resolution shall become effective
immediately upon its passage and adoption.

B. ENGINEERING DIVISION:
1. The developer shall comply with all of the applicable conditions of approval
detailed in the Engineering Division's "Standard Subdivision and Use Permit
Conditions for Townhouse, Condominium and Apartment Developments with
Private Streets and Utilities", contained in our "Standard Conditions for
Subdivisions and Private Developments" booklet dated January 1998. This
booklet is available in our office at no cost to the applicant.
2. The developer shall design, construct and install: new curb, gutter, sidewalk,
driveway approach and pavement overlay/conform to the street centerline (if
necessary) within Oak A venue, in front of the subject property. Plans for these
improvements shall be prepared by the developer's civil engineering consultant
and submitted to the Engineering Division for review and approval. The frontage
improvement work shall be constructed at no cost to the City and in accordance
with the approved plans, to the satisfaction of the City's Engineering Construction
Coordinator and pursuant to the terms of a secured encroachment permit, to be
obtained prior to receiving a building permit for the project.
3. The developer shall design a storm draLl1age system for the project that will drain
the entire site, without flowing onto adjacent private property. The on-site
drainage system shall connect directly to the existing public drainage facilities
located within Oak Avenue. The drainage system shall incorporate storm water
filters, meeting the requirements of the San Mateo County Best Management
Practices for private developments. The plans for these improvements shall be
prepared by the developer's civil engineering consultant and submitted to the
Engineering and Water Quality Control Divisions for review and approval.
4. The applicant is advised that the subject site is located within FEMA Flood
Hazard Zone AH and will need to have the elevation of its floor raised above the
100-year flood elevation. The proposed underground garage may need special
flood-proofing and drainage improvements to conform to FEMA's regulations.
5. The developers shall show on their plans all utility connections proposed to
service the building. The plans shall show all existing utilities that may be
affected by the new services. All utility facilities and appurtenances shall be
installed underground.
6. The applicant shall submit the following plans for review: Site, Grading &
Drainage, Landscaping and Utility Plans, in accordance with the Engineering
7. Division's "Typical Plan Check Submittals" requirements hand-out sheet.
8. There is an existing City 10" diameter sanitary sewer main, which crosses the
subject property and must be relocated before the proposed apartment can be
constructed. The applicant shall design, construct and install a new 10" sewer
main, which will by-pass the subject property. The applicant has submitted a
proposed Sewer Relocation plan, dated February 20,2002, prepared by BKF Civil
Engineers, showing a new sewer main installed within Oak A venue and
Commercial Avenue. The main would connect with an existing manhole in front
of90 Oak Avenue, flow North to Commercial Avenue, then East along
Commercial, connecting to the existing sewer main at Commercial Avenue's
intersection with Daly Court. This plan is acceptable, under the following
conditions:
a) The sewer shall be installed along the alignment of the existing sewer within
Commercial Avenue. The existing old sewer shall be removed and replaced
with the new 10" sewer main and any existing laterals reconnected to the
new line.
b) Because of the existing number of utility cuts in the street and the impact of
the new sewer installation, the applicant shall also over-lay the portion of
Commercial Avenue, between Oak Avenue and the East side of Daly Court
with 1.5 inches of Class A asphaltic concrete.
c) The applicants shall have their civil engineer prepare plans and
specifications to perform this work. The plans and specifications shall be
submitted to the City Engineer for review and approval. The applicant shall
install the new sewer main, in accordance with the approved plans and to
City standards.
d) Prior to receiving a building permit for the apartment, the applicant shall
obtain an encroachment permit or public improvement agreement, secured
by cash, a letter of credit, or surety bond in the amount of the Engineer's
Estimate to perform the work, as approved by the City Engineer.
Alternately, the applicant may install a new 12" sewer main extending down Oak
Avenue to the 18" City trunk main within Mission Road. However, this
alternative will have to be evaluated by the applicant's civil engineer to verify, to
the satisfaction of the City Engineer, that the portion of the 18" main, between
Oak Avenue and Chestnut Avenue (where the main size increases to 24"
diameter) can accommodate the additional sewage flow, along with the existing
flow in the line, as well as the future flows from Daly City, the Town of Colma
and from future development in South San Francisco within the drainage basin
that discharges into the Mission Road main. Conditions 7c and 7d discussed
above would apply to this solution to the sewer relocation requirement.
