Staff Member Dong said the required setback is 35 feet. He said the restaurant is set back 35 feet, but the hotel was set back an additional five feet to accommodate patios being provided to guest rooms. He said the building had been widened an additional 25 feet to accommodate desired design changes. Board Member Ruiz asked what the change in footprint would do to the overall square footage of the project. Staff Member Dong said the overall project has stayed approximately the same size. Board Member Teague asked if the footprint has changed since the May 28 meeting. Andrew Thomas, Planning, Building and Transportation Department Director, said the footprint has not changed since May 28. He explained that the staff report clarified that information in response to the appeal of the May 28 decision. Board Member Hom disclosed that he met with the applicant before the meeting. He asked if the landscape barrier for the headlights needs to be further clarified before approval. Staff Member Thomas explained the options discussed with the neighborhood about what type of barrier would be provided. He said they left the condition open to multiple options, but that the Board could express a preference if it desired. Board Member Cavanaugh asked why the landscape barrier on the northern edge would not be a mound similar to the treatment in front of the Bay Trail.
