Minutes - San Leandro City Council Meeting - September 17, 1990 Page - 8 - PUBLIC HEARINGS (continued) b. Matter of CU-66-6 (4th Modification) ; Baker's Square Restaurant; 15501 Hesperian Boulevard; Conditional Use; to Remodel the Building Exterior, to Construct Additions Totaling 427 Square Feet and to Increase Customer Seating; HPC Architecture, Jeffrey Escott -- Appeal . This being the time and place for the Public Hearing on the above matter, Gaye Quinn, Acting Director of the Building and Planning Department, noted that this was an Appeal of certain conditions related to an addition to the Baker's Square Restaurant at the northwest corner of Hesperian and Lewelling Boulevard. She said the Board of Zoning Adjustments had approved this Conditional Use on July 19, 1990, and that the Applicant was appealing requirements related to landscaping, street trees, and paving. She said the basic issue was a matter of interpretation of the General Plan and the Board of Zoning Adjustments had determined that upgrading could be required for this property and was consistent with the General Plan. Ms. Quinn then discussed the Site Plan and described prior enforcement problems with dust from the unpaved area behind the Baker's Square Restaurant. She said the addition to Baker's Square was a significant impact, but Baker's Square and the architect indicated they did not wish to comply with the Conditions of Approval . The Hearing was then opened to the public. Nelson Hilgar, HPC Architecture, 2150 No. Fifth Street, San Jose, representing Baker's Square, said they do plan to landscape the area in front of the building and adjacent to the driveway, but they do not feel they should be required to put trees along the entire length of Hesperian Boulevard. They said they are lease holders of only one portion of the property. They said they were willing to give up the existing sign and install a monument sign, as requested. They also said they were willing to put a fence along their lease line adjacent to the unpaved portion of the property; however, they said the unpaved area belongs to Target, not to Baker's Square. John Justino, President of Halcyon-Foothill Homeowners Association, Inc. , said he thought it was great that Baker's Square wanted to improve and he liked the idea of the monument sign. There being no further comments from the public, on motion of Council Member Santos, seconded by Council Member Faria and carried unanimously, the Public Hearing was closed. On motion of Council Member Perry, seconded by Council Member Faria and carried unanimously, the City Council granted the Appeal , solely and exclusively for purposes of deleting Condition II .B. 1 .c. and to modify Condition II .C. 1 .a. of the Conditions of Approval to provide that the fencing layout shall be submitted for the review and approval of the Planning and Building Director for that line which separates the Appellant's property from the remainder of the premises.
