NATIONAL ADVERTISING CO.: Revolving Sign at Portal • Plaza.

The Chief Bldg. Inspector has recommended the sign be dismantled un- til such a time as the appli.cant, after followin� standard procedu�es, may have been granted a Variance. : The reason for placing the letter on �he agenda for this meeting was that the Planning Commission in this way could be asked to have a look at.the sign before the dismantling. ` Mr. Wa31�er Davis, Account Executive for National Ad- vertising Campany, explained �hey have branch man- ager who is ne�r to,:this.area and was not aware of the City of Cupertino procedur.es when he arranged for in- stallation of the sign; therefore', he did not request a permit. .. Chairman Gates advised Mr. Davis that since no appli- cation has been made, the Commission is unable to take any action tonight. If a Variance for the sign ��,,,,' � is requested, then an ap must be filed with the Planning Commission:and a public hearing will be �i�. scheduled for a Planning Commission meeting. � `,� -2- � � ..,- PC-R10 Minutes of the Planning Commission Meeting, June 14 1965 ------------------------------------------------------------------- V VERBAL COMMUNICATIONS The Planning Director reported he had a message from the ° City Attorney, who was unable to attend the meeting be- cause of a back injury. It is the City Attorney's recommendation on Planned Com- munity-Cluster Development application for Mary Avenue, that the Public Hearings should be reopened when a Develop- ment Plan is presented to the Planning Commission. This �requirement is not clearly stated in the Planned Community Ordinance,.but it is in the Cluster Ordinance. The latter would also apply, as a R1C use is proposed. VI HEARINGS SCHEDULED 10-Z-65 A. MASON ENTERPRISES: Postponed� see III-B. 7-Z B . MACKAY HOMES: Application for rezoning of 33 acres 8-Z-65. � from R-1:B-2 to R-1, and 1 acre to R-3-H, east of 8-TM-65 Foothill Blvd., sou�h of Hartman Dr. Also Tentative - Map. Second Hearing. Chairman Gates recapped the hearing of May 2�th, and - read coinmunications from Mr. & Mrs. Roberts, Mr. 8c Mrs. Raymond, and Mr. & Mrs. Plehn on this application. (See N-A). A petition signecl by 198 homeowners in the area, protesting this rezoning was read and noted by the Commission. Mr. Somps, representative of the applicant, indicated that he feels the proposed R-3-H portion of the pro- perty that fronts on Foothill Blvd. should be in con- formance with the duplexes to the north on the same road, and the area zoned for apartments on the south. He reiterated that the access problem here can be solved by tYie extension of the road to the school, to connect with Crescent Drive. He feels that any monies for accesses are best spent to improve Crescent Drive. Comm. Traeumer and the Planning Director commented, that condemna�ion�for'an access under the �ransmission line is facilitated by the fact that the lots in the Cook and Wilson area under the transmission line are bigger than normal. Mr. Somps said they have made a count on the area, and their average lot size is J300 sq. ft., although the minimum lot size required is 7500 sq. ft. under exist- ing R-1 zoning. _ . .� ___.� . _3_ PC-R10 Minutes of the Planning Commission Meeting, June 1�, 1; _ -, Mr. Ainsworth of 1062� Ainsworth Dr. showed the x `''' � original plan for the Eaton property, drawn by Mark `�J Thomas.. He pointed out that a park will be located �"�� l� „ • - along side of the school, which will further add to the traffic problem in� the area: � Mrs'. Henrietta Marcotte of 22415 Starling Drive, as�ked how Amelia Court would be affected by the accesses. � Should an acces`s go through to Old Stevens CrEek Road, people would ob,�ect. The Planning Director reportzd that a third exit has been st Although the proposed two � accesses would have sufficient capaci�y, coMSider- ations of quietude, etc. in the ad�acent areas would make a third access advisable, via Alpine Dr. Foothill Blvd. would be the connection to Junipero Serra Freeway and Foothill Expressway, and direct access.to this ma�or.highway from individ.ual lots should be avoided. � ' Chairman Gates asked if �here is any reason why Hillcrest Drive should not go through. The Plan- ning Director- that this road is private and very s�eep and narrow.. The Dir. of Public Works said he had studied the - wi�dth necessary for the third access to Alpine Dr., � and feels that a 32' street wi11 be sufficient. Another possibility would.be to have one lane be- tween the towers and anothe'r. larie on the � s:ide . In this way, living units would:not be. sacrificed; it would be in the P.G. & E. easemen.t.

Relative to the oak trees,'a good . �any ' of tlzese will be .taken out by the . County for widening the street. �He also feels that access via Hillcrest Drive shoulcl not�be encouraged, as it has a very dangexous,gra,de. Comm. Frolich asked whether the ��.ff would rec- ommend an acc�s.s be made into Stevens Creek Blvd., or should it he kep.t .ppe for further development progress? � _ The Planning Director�said that the preSent access to Stevens Cree�� Blvd. is very poor. Improvements prese:nt a very diffi.�u],t, problem, but would be �� necessary in the future�: � �� ._. � -4- . � J `w..� tiw/' PC-R10 Minutes of the Planning Commission Meeting, June 14, 1;6� ---�-------------------------------------------------------------- Comm. Traeumer asked Mr. Somps if, in view of the com- ; ments of the Planning Dept.. and Engineering Dept. re- garding access to Foothill Blvd. and Alpine Drive;' .' the hearing should'be continued. Mr. Somps said that he is not adverse to the access to Alpine Dr. The developers are as much interested in creating additional accesses as the property owners, but they do not feel the subdividers should bear the entire cost for passing through an area that has been . zoned for many years. If the residents in adjacent areas are actually interested in a local improvement district for access to Alpine Drive, it should be an equitable solution to the problem. Moved by Comm. Traeumer, seconded by Com. Hirshon, that the hearings be closed. Motion carried, 4-0 � Ghairman Gates asked whether the Commission feels we should or should not rezone this one acre to R-3-H. If we can dispense with that point we can go into the next request. Motion made by Comm. Traeumer, seconded by Comm.

Comm. Frolich��commented that perhaps the City should assist the developer, �sirice there will be a condem- � nation �o accomplish this. t Motion made by Comm.� Traeumer, seconded by Comm.

Roberts from the audience, as to clarification .of the ruling on posting" notices for pub- lic hearings on rezonings. _.. The Planning Director explained that notices were ad- vertised in the Cupertino Courier 12 days in advance of the hearings, and posted in three location� on tele- phone poles, etc. in areas adjacent to sub�ject property. Occasionally the notices are taken down by unr�nown per- sons, so the most important place to look for notices would be in the Courier. Fi�st hearings only are posted, and it is assumed anyone interested would bz pr.esent for the first hearing and then know about con- tinued hearings. J-Z- C. BEATTY: Postponed - see III-C 7- 13-V-65 D. CPM DEVELOPERS: Agplication for Variance for front 9-TM yards, street width, etc., in a?�.5 acre development at east end of Riverside Drive, adjoining Deep Cliff Golf Course (De Anza Verdes). Firs� Hearing. Also Tenta- tive .Map - first hearing contirtued. Mr. George Somps displayed the revised Tentative Map, with a�request that street sections depicted on this map, of 37' width, be considered for approval. The particular location is on a knoll overlooking the golf course. The con#'iguration of the streets was designed to retain as many of the trees as possible. The streets would be one way, and should be adequate for the pro- posed density. Sewers are being brough� in the back through the golf course. Comm. Frolich commented that decision on street width is not within the jurisdiction of the Planning Com- mission. It will have to be passed by �/5 vote of the City Council. Mr. Somps asked if the Planning Conunission could pos- sibly tal�e a vote on these applications tonight. The Planning Director said he had no further comments on Mr. Somps' presentation, and feels that�as for street wid�:hs, the idea is in trying to create some- thing different from the ordinary tract development. The City has a legal right'to de�ermine on narrower street rnrid.tlzs .than standard. However, he questions whether the rule of no par�ing-on one side can be en- forced. If it car�, it would be a very adequate street, and would be very attractive. If the parking rule can- not be enforced, fire trucks may be blocked. .._,_ ' 7 - PC-R10 Minutes of tY�e Planning Commission.Meeting, June 1� i�65 -�� _ � -�,' The Direc�or of Publ�c Works said public safety, is '� ; more important than aesthetic values.

Mr..Fous�t said that�Wolfe Road is a ma�or thorough- �.�. fa�re, , and they wquld have access direct to 6�lolfe Rd. .�� rather than going�into residential area. Frontage on Wolfe l�oad is not desirable for residential pro- perty: In answer to Comm. Hirshon's question as to the number..of offices planne�d, he said the,number of , offices could not be determined now; however they propose a 11,800 sq. ft. building, and will adhere and meet �,ll.the.parking requirements. Comm. Frolich asked Mr. Zehms if �t would be less offensive to hi.m if the office buildings were placed so that no wiridows � faced thei�r back patio., and if : parking were restricted to the street side.

PC-R1O Minutes of the Planning Commission Meeting, June 1�+ 1965 --------------------------------=------------------------------------- Mr. Robert Van Vleck of 100 Kennedy Lane, Los Gatos, represented Van Vleck Realty Trust. He explained there was commercial property on the north and commer- cial property on Kerwin Lane. Present zoning on this �, , property is R-3-H. It would be a more secure invest- ment, if this property were rezoned to C-1 rather than to PO-H. This is an Employees' Trust, and they are ob- ligated to make onl�r sound investments for the Trust.. It i�_�heir intention to build an office building - which will be presented to H-control for approval. Chairman Gates asY.ed for comments from the audience. There were none. The Plarining Director reported that it would be desir- able to get a row of office buildings in this area. For that reason, PO-H zoning would be preferable, which, however, would put more restrictions regarding signs, - etc. than would C-1 zoning. Mr. Van Vleck said the type of zoning, either G 1 or PO-H, to be approved did not concern him at this point. They would post bond and enter into a joint venture with tYie tenants when it is developed, or they will develop it on their own if it is the wish of the Planning Com= - mission. Comm. Frolich feels a PO-H would not be objectionable in spite of being a spot zoning. Most PO-H zoning is spot zoning. The Director of Public Works said they have not checked on street dedication and improvements as yet. Chairman Gates expressed concern about the lots imme- di�.tely behind this building. � The P1.anning Director said the lot behind (on Kerwin Lane) is zoned R-3-H. The adjoining office building on Sunnyvale-Saratoga Road is zoned C-1. ♦ Mr. Van Vleck explained their plans are for two offices of 20' x 60' and one offi�e �-0' x�0'. If there are too strict restrictions on signs, however, they cannot acquire tenants for the offi�es. Comm. �rolich proposed that we continue the First Hear- ing, and instruct the staff to make a report on the difference in restrictions in sign ordinance and park- ing ordinance between C-1 and PO-H zoning, and the possibility of Variances. Discussion can be continued at the next regular meeting, when the City Attorney will be present. _ ., . .. �. -11- PC-R10 Minutes of the Planning Commission Meeting, June l�,'1965 ;�.. .

BONACICH & HEADLEE: Request �'ar abandonment of planned ext�nsion of.Weste'rn Drive to Stevens Creek Blvd. . . . �' Mr. George Bonacich, r�presenting Bonacich & Headlee, asked to hear the recommendations of the Planning Department st�,ff before he made any comments. The Planning Director:said��he feels there is no real � need to�extend Western.Drive to Stevens Creek Blvd.. An extension could even create some through traffic in the residential area; wYiich would be a disadvan- tage. However, he feels stron�ly that a pedestrian passage is ne�ded for,people to get to the Post Office or to commercial areas along Stevens Creelc , Blvd. without driving about 'a mile. The City owns 30 f�et; and using 10 of this for a footpath would � make`it possible to develop three R-1 l.ots, provided - Mr..Bonacich could acquire �-00 sq. ft. from the Wilson property. Mr. Pe�terson, 11915 Elmscour`t Dr.', San Jose, spoke from the audience and said he woulcl like to see Wes- � tern Drive go through to Stevens Creek Blvd. For traffic going north.along Western Drive, dEtour via Saratoga-Sunnyvale Rd. (Hwy 85} is too great and is � inconven�ent. Comm. Frolich said that� the half mile on Stevens � Creek Blvd. between Stelling Rd. and Hwy. 8� is too.� long to be uninterrupted by streets. Absence of a cross street �reates too lon:g detours. • Mr. Bonacich said he was against a footpath. It is �� no need for another walkwa,y`when there is.a passage over tYie nearby cnurch property*. The existing 30 � were set aside when the 'I`awn & Country development was built.

Frolich brought up a point in regard to property on Greenwood Court, corner of Wolfe Road. This property is now being sold by creditors and has been advertised as du- plex lots. However, it has been found that two duplexes have been built on one lot. The City Engineer said the City has contacted the Trust Company who are the lien holders, and informed them to sell the lots as advertised (as duplex) would be unlawful. The lien holder agreed that they would co�rlbine one or two lots before they sell them. IX ADJOURNMENT Moved by Comm. Traeumer and seconded by Comm.
