RE: 42 Mining Stock Parkway, Unit 107 Remodel application
To: The Burlingame Ranch 1 Condominium Board
Ian Metcalf, the Owner of 42 Mining Stock Parkway, Unit 107, herein referred to as “applicant” reached out
to the DRB in January 2017 to extend his existing attic space into a home office. Since that initial meeting, the
DRB has been working closely with the applicant and his architect, Juan Lagarrigue to ensure this proposed
expansion meets all the necessary criteria expected in Burlingame Phase 1. The dialog between the Owner and
the DRB has been longer than usual because this type of expansion, that involves the modification of a roofline
and creation of exterior walls has not been reviewed by the current DRB.
Intent and FAR Allowance
Due to the steep roof line, the applicant’s current attic space is not conducive to the office space use he and his
family has in mind. Indeed, the space has only a small potion of area that someone could stand in.
Per the excerpt below from the Insubstantial Amendment to Ordinance No 24 - Burlingame Homeowners
Dwelling Unit Expansion, Unit 107 is allowed an additional 79 square feet of FAR
The applicant has met with the zoning officer on several occasions to ensure the proposed extension meets all
current requirements and was given a positive response.
Description of Work
The construction will include the demolition of a potion of the existing asphalt shingle roof for the length of
the existing attic space and either reusing or installing new rafters to construct a new roof at the shallower
pitch of 4:12. Three new exterior stud walls will be added, projecting an additional 4’-11-1/2” from the front
face of the existing exterior wall. The minimum height of the new exterior back wall will be 8’2”. Three new
Millgard windows are being proposed as a part of the expansion. All proposed windows match the size, color
and insulation requirements of all other windows around Burlingame Phase 1. The new walls will be clad in the
same new gypsum board material/product being installed by Blue Sky and the applicant is willing to work with
Blue Sky or Pie Consulting to ensure the correct material is installed and the siding color matches the existing
precedent on the unit’s stairwell wall. The roof will be upgraded to a standing seam metal roof to match the

roof over the stairwell. All insulation between the joists and rafters will receive spray foam insulation and
drywall will be 3/4” thick to meet the stringent energy saving specifications outlined for the Burlingame Phase I
buildings.

Execution of Work
All work shall be carried out by a licensed General Contractor. The applicant will be submitting a reconstruction
plan to the Building Department as a part of their application.
Verdict
In accordance with the “Homeowner Association Compliance Policy” application form to be filled out by the
Owner and issued by the Community Development Department, the DRB recommends the Owner certifies the
statement “ This property is subject to a homeowners association or private covenant and the improvements
proposed in this building permit have been approved by the homeowners association or covenant beneficiary”
and recommends full approval of their application to allow the Owner’s contractor to apply for the necessary
City building permits with the stipulation that they provide the following prior to commencement of the
remodel:
- A copy of the contractor’s license and insurance
- A builder’s risk insurance policy that names BG1 Condo Assoc. Inc. as the insured. Before the applicant
can submit for a building permit, he needs to have the Burlingame Phase I Condo Board approve his
improvements. As the advisory board to the HOA, it is my opinion that this expansion meets all architectural
requirements
Please let me know if you would like to visit the unit to review the proposed expansion in more detail with the
myself, the applicant and the applicant’s architect.
Sincerely
