The Town of Atherton’s Work Plan is guided
by the Goal Areas established and annually
ratified by the City Council. It identifies the
primary areas of focus for Town staff to
support and advance those Goals.

The Work Plan details the principal projects
and priorities that staff will undertake during
the fiscal year in service to the community.

These initiatives are designed to further the
City Council’s Goals and other operational
objectives of the Town.

Serving as a framework for the development
of the annual budget, the Work Plan informs
the allocation of funding, staff time, and other
resources. It is intended to be a living
document—its objectives and tasks are
expected to evolve as necessary to maintain
alignment with Council direction. Projects
may be added or removed over time as
priorities shift.

In addition to the projects and initiatives
outlined in the Work Plan, Town staff
continue to perform the day-to-day
operations necessary to provide core
services to the community. While these
routine functions may not be listed explicitly,
they represent a significant portion of staff
responsibilities.

PUBLIC COMMENT

STUDY SESSION

1. STUDY SESSION ON PROPOSED INCLUSIONARY HOUSING ORDINANCE AND

IMPLEMENTATION
Town Planner Bendix presented the staff report providing an overview of what an inclusionary housing program is, what is actually required by the State to adopt one, and how the program will work with the Town’s Housing Element. Bendix articulated that the goal is to develop a program with fees at realistic amounts that would alleviate the dependence on ADU production in the event a Townwide application was considered.

Council and Commission discussed what steps are needed to adopt and implement an inclusionary housing program, challenges the Town may face if we opt not to move forward with one, details on programs on RM-20/40 sites, and a timeline for formal adoption.

There was consensus among both the Council and the Commission to move forward with some form of inclusionary ordinance on the RM 20/40 sites at least. There was no consensus to include single-family residences in an ordinance.

This item will return to Council at a future meeting for discussion and action.

Item No. 4
Town of Atherton
CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT – CONSENT AGENDA
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

GEORGE RODERICKS, CITY MANAGER
FROM: MONA EBRAHIMI, CITY ATTORNEY
DATE: JULY 16, 2025
SUBJECT: SECOND READING AND ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE
AMENDING SECTIONS 3.16.240 AND 3.16.280 OF THE

ATHERTON MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO PURCHASING

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Council adopt the attached Ordinance amending two sections of Chapter 3.16 relating to Purchasing, including Section 3.16.240 relating to requirements for contracting public works projects, and Section 3.16.280 relating to public works project bids in excess of maximum authority.

BACKGROUND
The Act allows public agencies to utilize more relaxed bidding procedures for certain public works projects. The Act is codified in Public Contract Code sections 22000 et seq. Public agencies must elect to participate in the Act to be subject to it.

In 2012, the Town of Atherton adopted a resolution electing to participate in the Act.

Public Contract Code section 22034 requires a local agency who has opted into the Act to adopt an informal bidding ordinance to govern the selection of contractors to perform public works projects for works of a certain amount. In 2012, the Town of Atherton adopted an informal bidding ordinance to comply with Public Contract code section 22034.

As part of the Act, every five years, the California Uniform Construction Cost Accounting Commission (the "Commission") is required to consider whether there have been material changes in public construction costs and make recommendations to the State Controller. These updates affect the amounts associated with force account, informal bidding procedures, and formal bidding procedures. Atherton Municipal Code section 3.16.240 requires these amounts to be established by resolution of the City Council on a periodic basis.

At its May 21, 2025, meeting, the City Council introduced and waived the first reading of the ordinance. Staff recommend that the City Council now adopt this ordinance.

Ordinance Amendment 3.16.240
JULY 16, 2025

Page 2 of 2 ends

ANALYSIS
The attached Ordinance updates two sections of the Atherton Municipal Code to reflect recent changes in the law relating to the Act. The changes include modifying the definition of "public works projects” section Atherton Municipal Code section 3.16.240 so it reflects the Public Contracts Code's definition and modifying the language of Atherton Municipal Code section

3.16.280 to reflect the updated amounts in the law. The modification to section 3.16.280 uses language to ensure the municipal code section accurately reflects the amounts as periodically amended in the Public Contracts Code.

FISCAL IMPACT
Notices for Competitive Bidding occur at a cost to the Town. Being able to streamline certain projects by relying on the Act will likely save the Town money.

GOAL ALIGNMENT
This Report and its contents are in alignment with the following Council Policy Goals:

1. By opting into the Act, the Town of Atherton is able to more efficiently complete public works projects under $75,000.

POLICY FOCUS
The attached Ordinance and Resolution align with the goal of Atherton to efficiently complete smaller public works projects.

PUBLIC NOTICE
Public notification was achieved by posting the agenda, with this agenda item being listed, at least 72 hours prior to the meeting in print and electronically. Information about the project is also disseminated via the Town’s electronic News Flash and Atherton Online. There are approximately 1,200 subscribers to the Town’s electronic News Flash publications.

A portion of Maple Avenue was slurry sealed following the replacement of a sewer main by West Bay Sanitary District. The remaining portion, not affected by the sewer project was included as an Additive Alternate bid item for this project. Residents from the street requested that the Town consider slurry sealing the remainder of the street to make it consistent with the work done by West Bay Sanitary District as part of their project.

ANALYSIS
Public Works staff administered a publicly advertised bid for the 2025 Crack Seal and Slurry Seal Project. Bids were opened on June 30, 2025. Three (3) bids were received as follows:

CONTRACTOR LOCATION BASE BID* ADD ALT TOTAL BID
Graham Contractors, Inc. San Jose $239,925.00 $8,500.00 $248,425.00 Pavement Coatings Co. Sacramento $334,400.10 $4,037.50 $338,437.60 VSS International, Inc. W. Sacramento $350,287.50 $4,037.50 $354,325.00 The basis of determining the lowest bidder was the Base Bid, not including additive alternate #1.

However, even with the add of the additive alternate, Graham Contractors, Inc. remains the lowest responsive bidder. The Engineer’s Estimate for the 2025 Crack Seal and Slurry Seal Project was $425,485.00
Staff recommends that the contract award includes the Additive Alternate - slurry seal of the remaining portion of Maple Avenue.

COMMUNITY NOTIFICATION
A map of the areas affected of the project is currently on the Town’s website. A construction schedule will be added to the Town’s website and distributed via the Town’s electronic news network.

Item No. 7
Town of Atherton
CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT – CONSENT AGENDA
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

GEORGE RODERICKS, CITY MANAGER
FROM: STEVEN D. MCCULLEY, POLICE CHIEF
DATE: JULY 16, 2025
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN JJ KANE
ASSOCIATES, INC. AND THE TOWN OF ATHERTON FOR
AUCTION SERVICES.

RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the agreement between JJ Kane Associates, Inc. and the Town of Atherton for auction services.

BACKGROUND
The Town periodically disposes of surplus vehicles, equipment, and other assets through public auctions. To streamline this process and take advantage of competitive pricing secured through a cooperative procurement process, staff recommends entering into an agreement with JJ Kane Associates, Inc. (“Contractor”) for auction services.

On April 19, 2022, JJ Kane Associates, Inc. was awarded a competitively procured contract for auction services by the National Cooperative Purchase Alliance (now OMNIA Partners). This master agreement allows public agencies to "piggyback" on competitively awarded contracts, in accordance with their own purchasing ordinances.

ANALYSIS
Atherton Municipal Code authorizes the use of cooperative purchasing agreements executed by other public agencies or cooperative procurement programs. The proposed Agreement between the Town and JJ Kane leverages the terms and pricing of the OMNIA Partners agreement, allowing the Town to obtain services without independently soliciting bids, saving time and resources.

The term of the Agreement is effective through June 30, 2026, with the option for two one-year extensions upon mutual written agreement. Services include the public auction of surplus assets and related transportation and administrative support, under the terms and pricing specified in the

original cooperative contract. The Contractor's compensation is based on a commission model not to exceed 5% per item, plus allowable additional service charges.

The Agreement also includes customary terms regarding insurance, indemnification, wage compliance, and termination for convenience. The Contractor is responsible for compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, including prevailing wage laws where applicable.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total amount payable under the Agreement, including commissions and service charges, shall not exceed $80,000. There is no upfront cost to the Town; Contractor’s fees are deducted from auction proceeds. The Agreement allows the Town to efficiently and cost-effectively dispose of surplus property, and the fiscal impact is expected to be offset by revenue generated from auction sales.

GOAL ALIGNMENT
This Report and its contents are in alignment with the following Council Policy Goals:
• Goal D - Be Forward Thinking
• Goal F - Build Community & Promote Civic Engagement

As used in this Agreement, “Auction Items” means the property identified by City for Contractor to facilitate the sale of at public absolute auction.

Item No. 8
Town of Atherton
CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT – PUBLIC HEARINGS
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

GEORGE RODERICKS, CITY MANAGER
FROM: BRITTANY BENDIX, CONSULTING TOWN PLANNER
DATE: JULY 16, 2025
SUBJECT: APPEAL OF A PLANNING COMMISSION DECISION TO APPROVE

A REQUEST FOR FRONT AND REAR SETBACK VARIANCES
(VAR24-003) AND TREE PROTECTION ZONE EXCEPTIONS
(PTPZ25-00002) TO CONSTRUCT A NEW SINGLE-FAMILY
DWELLING WITH AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT (ADU) AT 94
PALMER LANE (APN 060-163-290).

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council conduct the public hearing, deny the appeal, and uphold the decision of the Planning Commission to approve the Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception requests at 94 Palmer Lane to allow construction of a single-family dwelling within portions of the required front and rear setbacks and construction of a gravel driveway within portions of the tree protection zone, based on the findings outlined below.

BACKGROUND
The subject property is located at 94 Palmer Lane (APN 060-163-290) and is a 0.32-acre flag lot within the R-1A zoning district. The property is located along the northeast edge of the Town, situated on Palmer Lane, between Middlefield Road and Fair Oaks Avenue. In 2023, the subject property was created through the approval of an urban lot split, pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 9 and Atherton Municipal Code (AMC) Section 17.53. The original parcel included the front property, 98 Palmer Lane, and was approximately 0.55 acres, established in 1922.

Immediately east of the subject site is the community of North Fair Oaks, under the jurisdiction of San Mateo County. Neighboring properties along Palmer Lane are developed with single-family dwellings and range in lot size from 0.12- to 0.77-acres, diminishing in size as lots approach Fair Oaks Avenue. To the rear of the property, lots fronting onto Holbrook Lane similarly become smaller beyond the town’s boundary. All of the properties within this area and under Atherton’s jurisdiction are zoned R-1A, which requires a minimum lot size of one acre. The inconsistency between the zoning and the existing Atherton lots date to a 1922 subdivision (Barney Park) that predates the Town of Atherton’s incorporation and adoption of its zoning code. See Figure 1 for a map identifying the subject and neighboring properties and the Town’s boundary.

94 Palmer Lane – Appeal of Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception

Page 2 of 13 ends

Figure 1: Locator Map, Parcel Map (Google Maps, 2023)
Subsequent to the property’s completion of the lot split in 2023, the property owner is now seeking to develop the lot with a single-family dwelling and accessory dwelling unit (ADU). The state’s urban lot split law requires the Town to approve development under certain criteria that accommodate two dwelling units up to 800 square-feet each and require a minimum four-foot setback. However, the Town provides an option through AMC Section 17.53 for property owners to develop beyond the 800 square foot limits, if the project conforms to the development standards of the underlying zoning district.

At this location, the required setbacks would be determined by the R-1A development standards. The applicant is seeking a variance from the R-1A standards for the front and rear yard requirements to accommodate a primary residence with an attached ADU. See Figure 2 for a site layout of the lot’s developable area and the location of the trees. The buildable area resulting from an application of R1A setbacks results in a buildable area of approximately 185 square feet.

In addition to the variance request, the proposed driveway that accesses the detached garage requires an exception from the Town’s tree protection zone (TPZ) requirements for six heritage trees, subject to approval by the Planning Commission. These exceptions accommodate a driveway, as shown in Figure 3.

A reduced plan set is provided in Attachment 1.

Page 4 of 13 ends

On May 28, 2025 the Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception requests. The May 28, 2025 Planning Commission staff report and attachments are included as Attachment 1 and draft meeting minutes as Attachment 2. Link to video recording of the Planning Commission meeting is included as Attachment 3. No public comment was received prior to or during the Planning Commission meeting.

Following the decision of the Planning Commission, the appellant submitted a letter (Attachment 4) on June 9, 2025 to the City Council requesting that it overturn the decision of the Planning Commission approving the Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception requests.

ANALYSIS
Appeal Hearings and Actions by the City Council
AMC Section 17.06.100 provides the framework of the appeals of all planning and zoning matters.

This appeal is considered a new hearing and subject to the public notification process consistent with the prior Planning Commission meeting. The City Council may reverse, modify, or affirm the decision in whole or in part. The Council may refer the item back to the Planning Commission, and may also modify, delete, or add conditions as it deems necessary. In taking its action, the Council must state the basis for its action. The action of the City Council is final on the date of the decision and may not be further appealed. A person may seek judicial review of a final decision of the Town in accordance with applicable sections of the California Government Code or Code of Civil Procedure.

Appellant’s Letter of Appeal
The appellant, Michael Templeton, has submitted a letter of appeal providing background as an adjacent property owner and basis for the appeal of the Planning Commission’s decision to approve the application (Attachment 4). The appellant’s letter of appeal describes ten (10) arguments as to why he believes the Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception request should

Page 94 of 190 ends

July 16, 2025, City Council Staff Report
94 Palmer Lane – Appeal of Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception

Page 5 of 13 ends

not be granted. These points are described by the appellant in greater detail within Attachment 4.

Staff has provided a summary of each of these ten (10) points and a staff response to each point below.

1. Privacy Intrusion
The appellant argues that the proposed two-story residence would cause a significant invasion of privacy. With second-story windows positioned 26 feet from his property line, the appellant’s backyard could be exposed to direct views from above.

Staff Response: The 26-foot side setback provided is fully compliant with the R-1A Zoning District and is consistent with the development pattern in the neighborhood. Furthermore, under SB 9, the applicant is entitled to develop two residences on the subject lot with a minimum side setback of only four feet. SB 9 does not limit the height of these structures to a single-story, so a compliant structure could potentially result in far greater impacts to privacy. It is the position of staff as well as the Planning Commission that the approved design results in a more sensitively designed development than what is possible were the applicant to bypass local regulations and utilize the remedies allowed by SB 9 instead.

2. Excessive Visual Impact
The appellant contends that the scale and massing of the proposed structure are disproportionately large for the lot and the neighborhood. Including the two-story building, a detached garage, a walkway, and roof eaves, the visual presence along the shared property line would create a dominating and intrusive visual impact from his property.

Staff Response: The length of the main residence is approximately 51.5 feet, and the detached garage is approximately 13.5 feet. There is a required 8-foot gap between the two structures. The provided 26-foot side setback is compliant with the requirements of the R-1A zoning district and is significantly more than the 4-foot setback allowed under SB 9. Furthermore, the existing stand of oaks trees along the property line provide substantial visual screening.

3. Inadequate and Imbalanced Screening
The proposed screening of the new residence is largely dependent on oak trees located on the appellant’s property. Because the applicant plans to use their side yard as a driveway, they offer little to no visual buffering of their own, leaving the burden of privacy mitigation entirely on the appellant, who would need to install and maintain understory vegetation at his own expense.

Staff Response: The facts that the trees are existing and are primarily located on the appellant’s property do not affect the trees’ effectiveness as visual screening elements. Further, once the applicant submits a Building Permit they are required to include a landscaping plan consistent with AMC Chapter 17.50 that identifies any existing or proposed landscape screening.

4. Noise and Door Orientation

Page 95 of 190 ends

July 16, 2025, City Council Staff Report
94 Palmer Lane – Appeal of Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception

Page 6 of 13 ends

The appellant raises concerns about the orientation of the main entrance of the new structure, which faces directly toward his backyard. He cites previous problems with a neighboring home where a similar configuration resulted in frequent, disruptive door-slamming.

Staff Response: The main entrance is fully compliant with the development standards for the R1A Zoning District, including a 26-foot side setback from the shared property line. Chapter 8.16 of the AMC provides regulations for noise control to maintain the peace, health, and safety of the Town’s residents.

5. Anticipated Construction Disturbance
Citing his experience during the lengthy renovation of 98 Palmer Lane (formerly part of the same parcel) the appellant anticipates that construction at 94 Palmer Lane will again result in ongoing noise and congestion. He previously endured years of construction traffic, work activity adjacent to his property, and materials being moved through driveways bordering his yard, all of which he expects to repeat.

Staff Response: While construction noise can be bothersome, construction of new structures is a necessary and unavoidable component of any community. AMC Section 8.16.050 and Chapter

15.40 provide regulations for construction to mitigate and minimize noise and other impacts. The Town provides enforcement mechanisms to remedy violations of these ordinances should they occur.

6. Self-Created Hardship and Financial Motivation
The appellant asserts that the claimed need for setback variances is a problem of the applicant’s own making. By choosing to split an already small parcel under SB 9, the applicant created the limitations themselves and now seeks exceptions to zoning rules in order to maximize financial gain through the construction and potential sale of a much larger residence than the zoning would otherwise allow.

Staff Response: Under SB 9, the Town cannot deny an urban lot split which meets the established criteria. The property owner has a right under state law to subdivide the property in this way.

Furthermore, SB 9 requires that the Town allow construction of up to two residences on the newly created lot within four feet of the property line. As noted in the Variance findings, the subject lot is unique regardless of the SB 9 lot split in that the original lot size of 0.55 acres was already approximately half the size of the minimum 1-acre lot size required and characteristic of the R-1A zoning. The complex patchwork of state and local laws can sometimes result in difficult development sites that cannot be fairly attributed to the applicant. A remedy for applicants in these situations, as asserted by state law, is the variance process.

7. Incompatibility with Atherton’s Character

Page 96 of 190 ends

July 16, 2025, City Council Staff Report
94 Palmer Lane – Appeal of Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception

Page 7 of 13 ends

The appellant argues that this type of small-lot, high-density development is out of step with Atherton’s traditional values of space, privacy, and low-intensity residential design. The appellant views the SB 9 split and resulting construction plans as inappropriate for the neighborhood and potentially damaging to the town’s character and community expectations.

Staff Response: The lot size and density of the subject lot result from a combination of the site’s history and current state laws. The original lot, measuring approximately 0.55 acres would not be allowed today in the R-1A zoning district, but the parcel was created in 1922 and predates both the incorporation of the Town and the introduction of the Town’s first zoning ordinance. A century later, SB 9 became effective on January 1, 2022, which overrides local authority mandating the allowance of urban lot splits such as the one which created the subject property. Regardless of any impact to local character, the lot size and density are legal and the Town cannot prevent this level of density from occurring on the site.

8. Environmental and Aesthetic Degradation
The appellant references recent actions by the owner of 98 Palmer Lane (the front parcel, which is not part of the proposal) that have resulted in loss of trees and screening, with negative consequences for neighborhood aesthetics.

Staff Response: The property at 98 Palmer Lane is not part of the proposal and actions taken by its owner or tenants are outside the scope of the Council’s review of this appeal.

9. Excessive Lot Coverage
The appellant believes the proposed development covers far too much of the available land. The appellant suggests design alternatives that could reduce the structure’s footprint and lessen its overall impact.

Staff Response: The R-1A Zoning District does not set a lot coverage maximum. However, this zoning district does provide a maximum floor area ratio, which for the subject property is calculated at 3,007 square feet. The proposed structure complies with this requirement.

10. Lack of Proper Notice and Neighbor Outreach
The appellant states that neither he nor his neighbors received timely or appropriate notification of the project or its requested variances.

Staff Response: Public notification was achieved by posting the agenda for the May 28, 2025 Planning Commission hearing, with this agenda item being listed, at least 72 hours prior to the meeting in print and electronically. Legal advertisement of this hearing was published in The Almanac newspaper. Additionally, a mailed notice to owners and occupants within 500 feet of the subject lot was mailed 12 days prior to the hearing date. The signed Affidavit of Mailing Notices is included as Attachment 5.

Applicant’s Response to Appeal

Page 97 of 190 ends

July 16, 2025, City Council Staff Report
94 Palmer Lane – Appeal of Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception

Page 8 of 13 ends

The applicant, Kelly Johnson of Zak Johnson Architects, subsequently submitted a rebuttal to the letter of appeal (Attachment 6). The following summary has been prepared by staff.

1. Request to Uphold Planning Commission’s Approval
The applicant respectfully asks the Town Council to deny the appeal and affirm the Planning Commission’s unanimous 5–0 approval of the requested front and rear setback variances. They emphasize that Planning Staff also recommends approval and assert that the project meets all required findings under both local and state law.

2. Unique Design Constraints Due to Lot Size
The applicant explains that the 0.32-acre lot was legally created through an SB 9 urban lot split approved by the Town in 2023. Due to its smaller dimensions and current zoning requirements (60-foot front and rear setbacks and 26-foot side setbacks), the remaining buildable area would be reduced to just 185 square feet, making construction of any livable single-family home impossible without a variance.

3. Long-Term Collaborative Planning Effort
The applicant notes that they have been working with the Planning Department since April 2024 and underwent a 15-month process involving multiple plan revisions, planner reassignments, and requests for additional information. The applicant states that their design evolved through this process in response to staff guidance and regulatory constraints.

4. Compatibility with Neighborhood and Tree Protections The applicant argues that the proposed design respects the neighborhood in terms of scale and privacy, and that it aligns with surrounding development on Palmer Lane. They highlight their collaboration with the Town Arborist and Fire Department to protect heritage trees and ensure emergency access. The project complies with all development standards for the R-1A zoning district, with the sole exception of the front and rear setbacks, for which a variance is requested.

To justify the variance, the applicant points out that the proposed front and rear setbacks are 37 feet and 4.75 inches, which equal 30% of the lot depth of 124.78 feet. This configuration is consistent with Section 17.32.040(D)(1) of the Atherton Municipal Code, which allows for reduced setbacks on lots recorded before April 16, 1946 and less than 200 feet deep, provided the setbacks equal 30% of the lot depth and are at least 30 feet. The applicant argues that their proposed setbacks not only meet this guideline but also reflect a reasoned and proportional approach given the site’s physical constraints.

5. Clarification on Side Setbacks and Design Decisions
The applicant points out that they are not requesting a variance for the 26-foot side setback adjacent to the appellant’s property. They also emphasize that placing the ADU on the opposite side of the

Page 98 of 190 ends

July 16, 2025, City Council Staff Report
94 Palmer Lane – Appeal of Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception

Page 9 of 13 ends

lot was an intentional decision to reduce the impact on the appellant and better align with the denser development in the adjacent North Fair Oaks neighborhood of unincorporated San Mateo County.

6. Additional Privacy Concession in Response to Appeal
In a good-faith effort to address concerns, the applicant met with the appellant and Planning Department staff after the appeal was filed. While the applicant believes the existing tree canopy provides adequate screening, they have offered to obscure the lower portions of the second-story windows facing the appellant’s property as an added privacy measure. They include a diagram illustrating this proposed adjustment in Attachment 6.

FINDINGS ANALYSIS
Front and Rear Yard Variance Request
Variances are regulated by Chapter 17.16 of the AMC. The purpose of a Variance is to allow the Town to grant exceptions to the development standards and provisions in cases where, because of special circumstances applicable to the property, the strict application deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other property in the vicinity and under identical land use zoning districts.

As noted above, the applicant’s submitted Variance application was approved by the Planning Commission at their May 28, 2025. Variances can be granted by the approval authority only if the designated approval authority makes all four (4) of the required findings:

1. There are special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, where the strict application of the Zoning Title deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other property owners in the vicinity and under identical land use zoning district classification.

Commission Review: Finding met.

The 0.32-acre subject property is uniquely small, even prior to its 2023 lot split, compared to other R-1A lots that must have a minimum size of 1-acre. Additionally, the property is situated at the edge of the Town’s boundaries, next to properties that range in lot size from 0.12- to 0.77- acres. The strict application of 60-foot front and rear yard setbacks deprives the property owner of reasonable development of a residence, otherwise consistent with R-1A development standards.

2. Granting the Variance does not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which such property is situated.

Commission Review: Finding met.

The development pattern on Palmer Lane is inherently inconsistent with regard to lot size and applicable development standards given the disparity between the R-1A standards, age of lots

Page 99 of 190 ends

July 16, 2025, City Council Staff Report
94 Palmer Lane – Appeal of Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception

Page 10 of 13 ends

(circa 1922) and transition between jurisdictional controls. The applicant is requesting a variance to apply setback standards that are consistent with an existing R-1A exception provision that would apply to lots of a similar characteristic. Therefore, while a variance is required, its granting does not convey special privileges.

3. Granting the Variance will not adversely affect the interest of the public or the interest of the residents and property owners in the vicinity of the premise in question.

Commission Review: Finding met.

The variance request allows a centralized siting of the development. Alternatives to the proposal that are supported through state law and circumvent local standards would allow two independent residences, up to 800 square-feet with setbacks of four-feet and ancillary structures, such as detached garages of ten-feet. Therefore, although the project requires a variance from the R-1A standards for front and rear yard setbacks, it is more compliant with local regulations than the state-mandated alternatives. Additionally, beyond the request for front and rear yard variances, the proposal complies with all other R-1A standards.

4. The granting of the Variance is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan and the Zoning Code.

Commission Review: Finding met.

The stated purpose of the AMC Title 17: Zoning is to implement the General Plan. The regulations within Title 17 provide directions on the location, size, and height of residential structures within the Town’s private properties. As described within this report the proposed development on this property complies with all R-1A standards, with the exception of the front and rear yard setbacks. Additionally, the development is more compliant with local setback standards than are otherwise required by state law.

Therefore, the project is consistent with the following goals and objectives of the General Plan:

• Land Use Goal LU-1: To preserve the Town’s character as a scenic, semi-rural, thicklywooded residential area with abundant open space. • Land Use Objective LU-1.3: To retain the quality of life, character and existing in the Town.

Tree Protection Zone Exception Request
The radii of Tree Protection Zones for heritage trees are determined by Section 2.2(A)(1)(b) of the Town of Atherton Heritage Tree Preservation Standards and Specifications. The radius of the Tree Protection Zone within the R-1A zoning district is eight times (8x) the diameter of the tree as measured at breast height (4.5 feet above natural grade). The project proposes tree protection zone exceptions reducing these radii for six trees up to 3.7x.

Page 100 of 190 ends

July 16, 2025, City Council Staff Report
94 Palmer Lane – Appeal of Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception

Page 11 of 13 ends

Per Section 2.2(B)(4), the Planning Commission may authorize an exception to the Tree Protection Zone requirements, based on the following criteria from Section 2.2(B)(5):

1. The relation of the project to criteria listed in Section 2.2.B.2 of the Heritage Tree Ordinance and Tree Preservation Standards:
a. The utility location is required by a utility company and it cannot be moved. A confirmation in writing from the utility is required.
b. If the species is tolerant of construction based on species, health, size, and age from the Matheny and Clark tolerance chart.
c. There are no roots over 2-inches diameter that need to be cut. d. Other criteria as may be required by the Town Arborist.

2. The probability of failure which is a function of heritage tree and site conditions such as, but not limited to, structural defects, presence of disease, species history, age or remaining life span, and varying weather conditions.

3. The probability of a public safety hazard, personal injury or significant property damage as a function of proximity to existing structures and objects of value and interference with utility services.

4. The number, species, size and location of existing trees in the area and the effect of the requested exception upon shade, noise buffers, protection from wind damage, air pollution, historic value, scenic beauty, health, safety and general welfare of the area and town as a whole

5. The necessity to allow reasonable use or other enjoyment of the property when there is no demonstrated feasible alternative to the exception while meeting other adopted goals and policies of the general plan to the greatest extent possible.

At their May 28, 2025 meeting, the Planning Commission considered the criteria above and approved the tree protection zone exceptions based on a memo with recommended conditions of approval prepared by the Town Arborist. In this memo, the Town Arborist acknowledges the need for access to the site and indicates concerns that five of the subject trees are shared or neighbor trees and asserts the needs for conditions of approval to ensure care is applied during related construction activities.

The Town Arborist also noted that the applicant had decreased the width of the driveway to allow more room for the existing trees. Additionally, the applicant agreed to apply materials that will require less grading and base rock. These materials will be better for the roots of the trees and will cause less compaction.

CONCLUSION
As indicated above, Planning Staff and the Planning Commission have found that the proposed project meets all four findings required pursuant to AMC Chapter 17.16 for the variance request.

Page 101 of 190 ends

July 16, 2025, City Council Staff Report
94 Palmer Lane – Appeal of Variance and Tree Protection Zone Exception

Page 12 of 13 ends

In addition, the Planning Commission has found that the Tree Protection Zone Exception request, with the conditions of approval as written, meets all of the requirements of the Town of Atherton Heritage Tree Preservation Standards and Specifications.

ALTERNATIVES AND RECOMMENDATION
The Council has the following options:

1. Uphold the decision of the Planning Commission and deny the appeal, thereby approving the requests for a Variance a Tree Protection Zone Exception.

2. Approve the appeal and thereby deny a Variance to allow to a reduction of the front and rear setbacks to 37-feet, 4.75-inches and deny the Tree Protection Zone Exception to allow construction of a gravel driveway within the Tree Protection Zone.

3. Refer the application back to the Planning Commission for consideration.

Staff is supportive of the Variance request as all four required findings in order to grant approval have been met. Staff also supports approval of the Tree Protection Zone Exception with the conditions authored by the Town Arborist and approved by the Planning Commission. It is worth noting that an SB 9 project would not be required to adhere to the Town’s Tree Protection Zone requirements and could therefore result in far greater damage to the existing trees. Therefore, Planning Staff recommends that the City Council deny the appeal and uphold the Planning Commission’s approval of both the Variance and the Tree Protection Zone Exception requests.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
This proposal has been determined to be categorically exempt from further environmental review pursuant to CEQA Section 15303, New Construction and CEQA Section 15311, Accessory Structures.

POLICY FOCUS
The 2023-2031 Housing Element, revisions of which were adopted by the City Council on February 19, 2025, includes several goals and programs consistent with the proposed development, including:
• Goal 3.710: Facilitate the private development of housing to meet the above moderate income housing need identified for Atherton.
• Program 3.811(A) New Single Family Housing Development: Continue to facilitate and expediate the development of new single-family housing units. • Program 3.811(B) New Single Family Housing Development from SB 9 Implementation:

The Town adopted an SB 9 ordinance consistent with State law provisions in 2022. If development trends and assumptions are not being met, the Planning Department will prepare an ordinance to further incentivize lot splits. • Program 3.812(A) New Construction of Affordable Accessory Dwelling Units: Continue to encourage the development of ADUs and approve ADUs ministerially in conformance with State law provisions.

Phone: (650) 752-0544
DATE: MAY 28, 2025
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: BRITTANY BENDIX, CONSULTING TOWN PLANNER
SUBJECT: Requests for Front and Rear Setback Variances (VAR24-003) and Tree Protection Zone Exceptions (PTPZ25-00002) to construct a new single-family dwelling with an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) at 94 Palmer Lane (APN 060- 163-290).

CEQA: This proposal has been determined to be categorically exempt from further environmental review pursuant to: CEQA Section 15303, New Construction and CEQA Section 15311, Accessory Structures.

RECOMMENDATION:

For the reasons outlined in this staff report, Planning Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the Front and Rear Setback Variances and the Tree Protection Zone Exception requests for distances ranging from to 3.7- to 7-times the respective trunk's diameter at breast height, noted as 3.7x to 7x, for six heritage trees.

BACKGROUND:

The subject property is located at 94 Palmer Lane (APN 060-163-290) and is a 0.32-acre flag lot within the R-1A zoning district. The property is located along the northeast edge of the Town, situated on Palmer Lane, between Middlefield Road and Fair Oaks Avenue. In 2023, the subject property was created through the approval of an urban lot split, pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 9 and Atherton Municipal Code (AMC) Section 17.53. The original parcel included the front property, 98 Palmer Lane, and was approximately 0.55 acres, established in 1922.

Immediately east of the subject site is the community of North Fair Oaks, under the jurisdiction of San Mateo County. Neighboring properties along Palmer Lane are developed with single-family dwellings and range in lot size from 0.12- to 0.77-acres, diminishing in size as lots approach Fair Oaks Avenue. To the rear of the property, lots fronting onto Holbrook Lane similarly become smaller beyond the town’s boundary. All of the properties within this area and under Atherton’s jurisdiction are zoned R-1A, which requires a minimum lot size of one acre. The inconsistency between the zoning and the existing Atherton lots date to a 1922 subdivision (Barney Park) that predates the Town of Atherton’s incorporation and adoption of its zoning code. See Figure 1 for a map identifying the subject and neighboring properties and the Town’s boundary.

Figure 1: Locator Map, Parcel Map (Google Maps, 2023)
Subsequent to the property’s completion of the lot split in 2023, the property owner is now seeking to develop the lot with a single-family dwelling and accessory dwelling unit (ADU). The state’s urban lot split law requires the Town to approve development under certain criteria that accommodate two dwelling units up to 800 square-feet each and require a minimum four-foot setback. However, the Town provides an option through AMC Section 17.53 for property owners to develop beyond the 800 square foot limits, if the project conforms to the development standards of the underlying zoning district.

At this location, the required setbacks would be determined by the R-1A development standards. The applicant is seeking a variance from the R-1A standards for the front and rear yard requirements to accommodate a primary residence with an attached ADU. See Figure 2 for a site layout of the lot’s developable area and the location of the trees. The buildable area resulting from an application of R1A setbacks results in a buildable area of approximately 185 square feet.

In addition to the variance request, the proposed driveway that accesses the detached garage requires an exception from the Town’s tree protection zone (TPZ) requirements for six heritage trees, subject to approval by the Planning Commission. These exceptions accommodate a driveway, as shown in Figure 3.

Both applications and corresponding narratives are provided at Attachments 1, 2, and 3. A reduced plan set is provided at Attachment 4.

Figure 2: Developable Area Comparison and Tree Locations (Attachment 4, Sheet A-3) PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The project proposes construction of a 2,961 square-foot primary residence with a detached singlecar garage and an attached 800 square-foot ADU. Per Atherton Municipal Code Section 17.53.050, any proposed single-family dwelling greater than 800 square-feet is subject to the R-1A development standards, which include 60-foot front and rear setbacks for the main building. The project provides front and rear setbacks of 37-feet 4.75-inches, which require approval of a variance by the Planning Commission. Tables A, B, and C provide the development standards for the proposed main building, detached garage and attached garage. The project complies with all R-1A development standards with the exception of the front and rear yard requirements.

As described in the applicant’s variance request (Attachment 2) the proposed front and rear main building setbacks correspond to a provision in AMC Section 17.32.040(D)(1) that allows for a reduction from the standard 60-foot minimum setback for lots that were established prior to 1946 and have a depth less than two hundred feet. The reduced front and rear setbacks are equal to thirty percent of the lot depth, with a minimum of thirty feet.

Excluding the flag portion of the lot, the remaining area has a lot depth of 124.78 feet. The proposed setbacks equate to thirty percent of that depth, or 37-feet 4.75-inches.

The Planning Commission may grant a Tree Protection Zone Exception (PTPZ) in the R-1A Zoning District for the construction of driveways in new areas that are within a distance from a heritage tree that is less than 8 times the diameter of the trunk at breast height, noted as “8x.” For areas of the lot where driveways are pre-existing, the required TPZ is 3x. Table D provides a summary of the heritage trees that require PTPZs less than 8x to accommodate a new driveway in an area previously undisturbed. The exceptions range from 3.7x to 7x.

The applicant is proposing an Easypave gravel driveway as the new driveway material and must be a minimum of 16 feet in width to comply with access requirement by Menlo Fire. Where possible, the applicants have also worked with Menlo Fire to further reduce the width around trees that are not subject to this request (trees number T9, T10, and T12).

FINDINGS ANALYSIS
Variance Request
To grant a variance, the Planning Commission must make four findings contained in Atherton Municipal Code Chapter 17.16 and California Government Code Section 65906.

The following analysis by staff addresses each finding:

A. There are special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape, topography, location, or surroundings, such that the strict application of this title deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other property owners in the vicinity and under identical land use zoning district classifications.

Staff review: Finding met.

The 0.32-acre subject property is uniquely small, even prior to its 2023 lot split, compared to other R-1A lots that must have a minimum size of 1-acre. Additionally, the property is situated at the edge of the Town’s boundaries, next to properties that range in lot size from

0.12- to 0.77-acres. The strict application of 60-foot front and rear yard setbacks deprives ATTACHMENT 1

May 28, 2025 Planning Commission Staff Report
94 Palmer Lane – Variance and PTPZ

Page 7 ends

7 | P a g e
the property owner of reasonable development of a residence, otherwise consistent with R1A development standards.

B. Granting the Variance does not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon properties in the vicinity and zone in which such property is situated.

Staff review: Finding met.

The development pattern on Palmer Lane is inherently inconsistent with regard to lot size and applicable development standards given the disparity between the R-1A standards, age of lots (circa 1922) and transition between jurisdictional controls. The applicant is requesting a variance to apply setback standards that are consistent with an existing R-1A exception provision that would apply to lots of a similar characteristic. Therefore, while a variance is required, its granting does not convey special privileges.

C. Granting the Variance will not adversely affect the interest of the public or the interest of the residents and property owners in the vicinity of the premise in question.

Staff review: Finding met.

The variance request allows a centralized siting of the development. Alternatives to the proposal that are supported through state law and circumvent local standards would allow two independent residences, up to 800 square-feet with setbacks of four-feet and ancillary structures, such as detached garages of ten-feet. Therefore, although the project requires a variance from the R-1A standards for front and rear yard setbacks, it is more compliant with local regulations than the state-mandated alternatives. Additionally, beyond the request for front and rear yard variances, the proposal complies with all other R-1A standards.

D. The granting of the Variance is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan and the Zoning Code.

Staff review: Finding met.

The stated purpose of the AMC Title 17: Zoning is to implement the General Plan. The regulations within Title 17 provide directions on the location, size, and height of residential structures within the Town’s private properties. As described within this report the proposed development on this property complies with all R-1A standards, with the exception of the front and rear yard setbacks. Additionally, the development is more compliant with local setback standards than are otherwise required by state law.

Therefore, the project is consistent with the following goals and objectives of the General Plan:
• Land Use Goal LU-1: To preserve the Town’s character as a scenic, semi-rural, thickly-wooded residential area with abundant open space. • Land Use Objective LU-1.3: To retain the quality of life, character and existing ATTACHMENT 1

in the Town.

Tree Protection Zone Exception Request
To consider a PTPZ, the Planning Commission may approve or reject such applications based on the following criteria:

1. The relation of the project to criteria listed in Section 2.2.B.2 of the Heritage Tree Ordinance and Tree Preservation Standards:
a. The utility location is required by a utility company and it cannot be moved. A confirmation in writing from the utility is required.
b. If the species is tolerant of construction based on species, health, size, and age from the Matheny and Clark tolerance chart.
c. There are no roots over 2-inches diameter that need to be cut. d. Other criteria as may be required by the Town Arborist.

2. The probability of failure which is a function of heritage tree and site conditions such as, but not limited to, structural defects, presence of disease, species history, age or remaining life span, and varying weather conditions.

3. The probability of a public safety hazard, personal injury or significant property damage as a function of proximity to existing structures and objects of value and interference with utility services.

4. The number, species, size and location of existing trees in the area and the effect of the requested exception upon shade, noise buffers, protection from wind damage, air pollution, historic value, scenic beauty, health, safety and general welfare of the area and town as a whole

5. The necessity to allow reasonable use or other enjoyment of the property when there is no demonstrated feasible alternative to the exception while meeting other adopted goals and policies of the general plan to the greatest extent possible.

A memo by the Town Arborist analyzing the proposed project is provided in Attachment 5. In this memo, the Town Arborist acknowledges the need for access to the site and indicates concerns that five of the subject trees are shared or neighbor trees and asserts the needs for conditions of approval to ensure care is applied during related construction activities. The Town Arborist further appreciates the decreased width of the driveway to allow more room for existing trees, as well as the implementation of materials that will require less grading and base rock. These materials will be better for the roots of the trees and will cause less compaction. In conclusion the Town Arborist recommends approval of the requests with the following conditions of approval:

1. The Applicant must provide outreach to the neighbor owning trees subject to this request, ensuring that they are aware of the project scope, prior to issuance of a related building permit.

2. The Project Arborist is required to be on hand during excavation for the demo of the existing driveway and excavation of new driveway.

3. Excavations are required to be performed carefully and by hand 8x away or less to avoid tearing or pulling roots.

4. The Project Arborist or their designated person should cut all roots larger than 1 inch in diameter with a sharp saw on the side of the excavation closest to the tree (s).

5. No roots over 2” to be cut.

6. All work in this area is required to be documented in the quarterly arborist reports.

7. Install Easypave grid to as shown in submitted detail.

The General Plan goal that can be found to be consistent with the recommendation to approve the Tree Protection Zone Exception Permit is below:

Town of Atherton General Plan, Land Use Policy LU-1.8:

Maximize preservation of heritage trees and existing trees within a development site to the greatest degree feasible, consistent with the Heritage Tree Ordinance and Tree Preservation standards and specifications. Require new development to comply with the Town’s requirements for tree protection, removal, and replacement.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
Public notification was achieved by posting the agenda, with this agenda item being listed, at least 72 hours prior to the meeting in print and electronically. Legal advertisement of this hearing was published in The Almanac newspaper. Additionally, a mailed notice to owners and occupants within 500 feet of the subject lot was mailed 12 days prior to the hearing date. To date, the Town has not received any public comment on the proposal.

CONCLUSION
As indicated above, Planning Staff finds that the proposed project meets all four findings required pursuant to AMC Chapter 17.16 and recommends the Planning Commission approve the variance request. Additionally, Planning Staff supports the recommendations of the Town Arborist to conditionally approve the Tree Protection Zone Exception request as proposed.

A draft Certificate for approval is provided as Page 1 in Attachment 6.

ALTERNATIVES:

The Planning Commission could deny or modify any item related to these requests. Should the Planning Commission decide to deny the request the Commission would need to make the required findings in the negative and make the application subject to the draft Certificate for denial provided as page 2 in Attachment 6.

Project Description
94 Palmer Lane, Atherton, CA 94027
September 25, 2024 - revised
Town of Atherton Planning Commissioners:

We are submitting this application to obtain a variance to decrease the front and rear setback for the property located at 94 Palmer Lane, which was created as part of an urban lot split (SB 9) subdivision in May 2023.

Attached to this application you will find the following architectural drawings that are referenced in this narrative:

Sheet A-1 – Project Data, Site Context Photos, Vicinity Map & Surrounding Area Plan - Neighborhood Context.

Sheet A-2 – Proposed Site Plan & Proposed Section through Site.

17.16.010 – Purpose and Applicability:
94 Palmer Lane is a flag lot and is part of the R-1A zoning district. See Sheet A-1 for a Vicinity Map, Site Context Photos, and Surrounding Area Plan to see location and neighborhood context.

According to the municipal code section 17.32.040.D.1, the front and rear setbacks shall be a minimum of 60’. The property dimension at 94 Palmer Lane (excluding the driveway flag), is 124.78’ from front to rear. Therefore, when we apply the minimum front and rear setbacks, we are left with only 4.78’ between setbacks in which to build a single-family residence. This has been illustrated on Sheet A-2 on the Proposed Site Plan.

Under this strict application of the zoning setbacks for R-1A, the owner is not afforded the same privileges enjoyed by other property owners in the vicinity within the same zoning district. The owner cannot develop a 2 story, single-family residence on this property without a variance for the front and rear setbacks. As you will see on Sheet A-1 Surrounding Area Plan, all of the surrounding properties have single family homes and many of them are indeed 2-story and include various accessory structures on their property.

17.53.050 – Objective Standards and Requirements for Dwelling Units Developed Pursuant to Chapter 17.53
As mentioned above, 94 Palmer Lane was created as part of an SB9 lot subdivision.

The following development is permitted on each SB9 parcel:

1. An Existing Primary Dwelling Unit and an SB9 unit

2. Two SB9 units

3. A Primary Dwelling Unit and an ADU or JADU (Additional ADU’s may be allowed per Atherton’s ADU ordinance.)
ATTACHMENT 1

Page 116 of 190 ends

To match the relative size and three-dimensional volume of the neighboring homes and the market value of the surrounding properties, the Owner has hired Zak Johnson Architects and is underway with the development of a design for option #3, a primary dwelling unit and an ADU.

As part of this design work, it became clear that the Owner would need to request a variance for the front and rear setbacks to enjoy the same privileges as their neighbors and to develop their SB9 lot in a permitted use of the newly created parcel.

When reviewing the zoning ordinance regarding R-1A setbacks, a second provision of

17.32.040.D.1 states, “however, on lots of record prior to adoption of Ordinance No. 146 (April 16, 1946) with a depth of less than two hundred feet, the front and rear yards shall each be thirty percent of the lot depth with a minimum of thirty feet;” Although 94 Palmer Lane was created in 2023, there is precedence in the municipal code to allow us to calculate our front and rear setbacks to be 30% of the lot depth because it is less than two hundred feet deep.

When we calculate using this provision, 124.78’ x 30% = 37.4' or the equivalent of 37'-4 3/4".

Although our property was created after 1946, we are asking for a variance to use a front and rear setback equal to 37.4' or the equivalent of 37'-4 3/4" to design and build a 2 story, singlefamily home and an attached ADU at 94 Palmer Lane. If you refer to the Proposed Site plan on Sheet A-2 you will see the graphic depiction of the front and rear setback variance that we are asking to be granted.

Because this site is a flag lot, the new front setback would be approximately 180’ from the edge of the road.

If we are granted this front and rear variance, we will be able to develop a 2-story house with an attached ADU that would meet all other R-1A zoning requirements and would not need any other exceptions for allowable floor area, side setbacks, or maximum heights.

17.16.030 – Variance Findings:
(A.) We believe that the strict application of the R-1A setbacks do not allow the property owner the same privileges enjoyed by surrounding properties. By applying the 60’ front and rear setbacks, and leaving only a 4.78’ buildable center strip, this would not allow the owner the ability to develop a 2-story house with an attached ADU that shares the same relative size, threedimensional volume, and market value that the surrounding neighbors are afforded. If you refer to the Surrounding Area Plan – Neighborhood Context Drawing on Sheet A-1, you will see that there are several properties just North of 94 Palmer Lane that have been developed in a very similar fashion. There are multiple properties that have a single-family 2 story house facing Palmer Lane in conjunction with a flag lot behind them. Each of these flag lots has a singlefamily home that is approximately the same scale, three-dimensional volume, and market value that granting this variance would allow the owner to design for their property. It is true that there is a border between two municipalities along one of the 94 Palmer Lane property lines, but the overall fabric and the context of this neighborhood supports this variance request. (B.) If we are granted this variance, we do not believe that it constitutes a special privilege inconsistent with the limitation upon other properties in the vicinity. In fact, we believe that this variance would allow 94 Palmer Lane to be developed in a manner similar to the surrounding ATTACHMENT 1

Page 117 of 190 ends

neighbors’ houses and would fit in well with the relative size of current homes, the threedimensional volume of the buildings, and the market value of the surrounding properties & the overall neighborhood fabric.
(C.) By granting this variance, we do not believe there would be any adverse effects to the public or the residents and property owners in the vicinity. The size of the setbacks we are requesting would position a new single-family house clearly in the middle of the property giving generous distances from the surrounding neighbors. And the new front setback would be approximately 180’ from the edge of the road. In addition, you will see that there are many large, heritage trees along the perimeter of the site that provide a natural barrier between neighboring properties. These tree locations can be seen in the Site Context Photos on Sheet A-1 and on the Proposed Site Plan on Sheet A-2.
(D.) The granting of our variance application is consistent with the objectives of the general plan and would allow the development of an additional single-family home and an ADU in the Town of Atherton on a property that currently contains only a dilapidated pool house. The two new housing units would be beneficial in adding housing to the area.

In addition, we are reaching out to (4) neighbors, listed below, whose properties share a lot line with 94 Palmer Lane to share our plans and to answer any questions they might have for us:
98 Palmer Lane, Atherton
506 Palmer Lane, Menlo Park

Project Narrative
94 Palmer Lane, Atherton CA
April 25, 2025
Town of Atherton Planning Commissioners:

In addition to the Variance Application regarding the front and rear setbacks for 94 Palmer Lane, we are submitting an application to decrease the Tree Protection Zone (TPZ) for various trees on the property that are impacted by the proposed development.

With this application, we have submitted an arborist report prepared by Daniel Soto from Dsoto Tree & Arborist Services dated 9/15/22. In this narrative we will also refer to the Proposed Site Plan w/TPZ information & Fire Department Requirements on Sheet A-3. This sheet has also been included as part of the Variance Application for setbacks.

As part of our due diligence, we reached out to the Menlo Park Fire Department to engage in a discussion about fire protection requirements for the site. Due to the flag lot geometry and the long access corridor associated with the property, there are limited solutions to gain vehicular access for both fire trucks and passenger cars.

Menlo Park Fire Department will require a 16’ wide driveway from the street to the rear lot line of the neighboring property that sits in front of 94 Palmer Lane. There is currently an asphalt driveway in this location that averages 13’-4” wide. Trees T9, T10, T12 & T13 are impacted by this driveway location. In general, 3 of these trees are exempt from the required TPZ because of the existing driveway on the property. We were advised by Sally Bentz that if we put in a new driveway in the exact location as the existing driveway, we would be exempt from the TPZ’s in this location only. The Fire Department requires us to widen the existing driveway. However, they have agreed to let us narrow the driveway for a limited portion around trees T9, T10 & T12.

See Sheet A-3 for this agreed upon configuration and for the minimal impact to Tree T13.

As part of our design process, we located a small, 1-car detached garage at the rear of the property. Although it would logically make more sense for this to be located at the front of the property where the long driveway enters the main portion of the site, the rear location was chosen to adhere to the zoning ordinance called out in 17.40 for accessory buildings and structures that dictates a detached garage shall be more than 30’ behind the front face of the main house. If the planning commission would allow us to have the detached garage in the front yard, because it sits more than 130’ behind the street front, we would choose this preferred location instead of having a long driveway all the way to the back of the property which impacts several heritage trees.

To access the detached garage with a vehicle, we propose building a 12’ driveway along the Southwest border of the property. This impacts the required TPZ of trees T14, T15, T16, T17, T18, T19, & T20. In general, you will see that these trees are located right on the property line.

See Sheet A-3, for a graphic depiction and a numerical chart that shows the individual impact to

ATTACHMENT

each tree and the reduced TPZ’s. To help mitigate this overall impact, we are proposing to use a pervious & porous, gravel driveway system such as the BODPAVE 85 Porous Pavers made by Terram in this location (or an approved equal product with similar attributes). We have attached a product brochure to the end of this narrative to show typical characteristics of a porous paver system. In addition to allowing water to pass through the driveway, using this type of system allows us to excavate much less and use much less base rock than a typical concrete driveway. It should be noted that in a portion of this proposed driveway location, there currently exists a concrete swimming pool and concrete patio. These items will be demolished and the gravel driveway would replace a portion of theses concrete structure. Only in this pool deck location, we would be considered exempt from the TPZ’s because we are replacing the ground cover in the same location. However, we are replacing it with a better, porous material that will allow for better water percolation down into the soil.

On Sheet A-3 you will see 4 additional heritage trees at the Northeastern property line. The TPZ’s of Tree T21 & T22 are affected by the location of the new ADU. However, we are exempt from the required TPZ’s for these two trees because the building is an ADU in this location. We will note that if you look on Sheet A-3, you will see that in this location there is currently a Pool House & Shed that will be demolished. Our proposed design for the ADU will be further away from the tree trunks than what is currently existing on site at the Pool House.

Along this same property line, near the ADU, the front porch of the main house will also slightly impact the TPZ’s of Tree T23 & T24. See Sheet A-3. The patio would be a raised wood deck.

When detailed, the structural support and any foundation posts will be located completely outside of the TPZ’s of the trees. Any part of the decking that is shown inside the TPZ would be cantilevered and would not touch the ground. Even when cantilevered, at no time would the deck extend closer than 8X diameter of these two trees.

In Summary:

T9, T10, T12 exempt from TPZ requirements at Existing Driveway Location only.

T13 = 24" diameter which is 18'-10" from driveway = 9.4 X the diameter of tree.

T14 = 16" diameter which is 7'-8" from driveway = 5.7X the diameter of tree.

T15 = 18" diameter which is 8'-10" from driveway = 5.9X the diameter of tree.

T16 = 32" diameter which is 9'-10" from driveway = 3.7X the diameter of tree.

T17 = 24" diameter which is 10'-7" from driveway = 5.3X the diameter of tree.

T18 = 16" diameter which is 9'-5" from driveway = 7.0X the diameter of tree.

T19 = 19" diameter which is 9'-11" from driveway = 6.3X the diameter of tree.

T21 & T22 exempt from TPZ requirements at ADU location only.

T23 = 22" diameter which is 14'-8" from wood deck = 8.0X the diameter of tree.

T24 = 22" diameter which is 16'-3" from wood deck = 8.8X the diameter of tree.

Thank you for your consideration of this application for TPZ exemptions.

BODPAVE 85 units are manufactured in the UK from UV stabilised 100% recycled waste plastic and are strong, chemically inert & non-toxic. The unique design of the BODPAVE 85 units resist lateral movement, improves traction and allows expansion & contraction whilst promoting optimum grass growth, root protection and surface stabilisation. BODPAVE 85 porous paving provides a durable, safe and environmentally friendly surface for trafficked areas with a very low carbon footprint compared to traditional paving solutions.

• Supplied as 4 pre-connected pavers (1m x 1m)
- allows rapid installation
• 24 interlocking connections per paver – excellent lateral transfer of traffic loads
• 18 ground spikes per paver – excellent shear connection with the ground allows slopes up to 1:8 / 12% / 7° and generally no pinning required
• Expansion/contraction tolerant – suitable for hot and cold climates • Manufactured from 100% recycled and recyclable polymers – highly sustainable, non-toxic and chemically inert to chemically naturally found in soils
• British manufactured - lower transport carbon footprint for UK deliveries • 92% open surface structure- SUDS source control compliant • Grass or gravel finish - free draining and naturally pleasing appearance • Paving grids can be offset by 1 cell increments – east to fit around obstacles
Sustainable Drainage System (SUDS) - Source Control
The open cell structure of TERRAM BODPAVE 85 provides high surface water infiltration and is ideally suited to provide source control within a Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SUDS). BODPAVE 85 permeable paving grids should be installed onto a well prepared, free draining, firm and relatively level existing or newly constructed sub-base. By careful specification of suitable materials the sub-base can be designed to hold rain water (source control SUDS) allowing it to slowly drain away into either the underlying ground or surface water drainage system depending upon site conditions. Construction profiles for each application will be determined by specific site conditions & loading criteria. Detailed specification, design and installation guidance literature and technical information are available to download from www.terram.com. Please note that for all BODPAVE 85 grass paver/ gravel paver installations, we strongly recommend that all areas should have sufficient drainage prior to the installation. Failure to ensure this may result in the product not performing as intended.

Please note that regular tight turning of vehicles and “dry” steering may cause damage to the units and/or displace gravel infill; vehicle manoeuvring should be carefully considered at specification/design stage. Gravel filled units may require some maintenance when subjected to regular channelised and turning traffic loadings. For confirmation of the correct construction profile required and guidance on suitable loadings please contact our office on 01621 874200 to speak with a member of our technical team.

17.32.040.D.1 Development Standards
D. Front and Rear Yards. Minimum front and rear yard requirements are:

1. Main building, interior, and corner lots: sixty feet minimum; provided, however, on lots of record prior to adoption of Ordinance No. 146 (April 16, 1946) with a depth of less than two hundred feet, the front and rear yards shall each be thirty percent of the lot depth with a minimum of thirty feet; provided further, where main building heights are between thirty feet and thirty-four feet, the front and rear yards shall be increased by a ratio of five feet for each one-foot increase in height.

Although the Urban Lot Split (SB 9) Subdivision of 98 & 94 Palmer Lanes was completed in May 2023, there is precedence in the Town of Atherton Municpal Code to use the following development standard to determine the Front and Rear Setback on the property.
