Attorney Johnson stated that the City of Saratoga was following this format but that, to his know- ledge, no complaints had ever been lodged. Numerous people spoke in support of the application, citing clubs examples such as Saratoga, Brookside and Kona Kai as examples. The Commissioners cited inquired as to possible light nuisance, the enlarging of the parking facility, the widening of the sidewalk and the present owners of the properties on the east side of Bubb Road, - Messrs. Kraich and Brown. Mr. George Wood of Terrace Drive in Cupertino said that it was his concern distinct feeling that the homes in the neighborhood of the proposed voiced club would drop in value and that the presentation by Mr. Johnson had no bearing on the case in point. Mr. A1 Carter, the Cupertino Postmaster and a homeowner whose prope�ty immediately abutts on the proposed site, had �ubmitted a letter of protest and said that conflicting stories about the conception of clarifi- the club were circulating, and asked Mr. Mueller to pinpoint the cation location of the tennis courts. Mr. Mueller obliged in telling asked Mr. Carter that the location of the tennis courts had originally been planned in a different spot than was shown on the rendering. Mr. Don Bandley, Realtor, said that it was his feeling that this application, if granted, would constitute an invasion of privacy comments and he wanted it clearly understood that the opposition was not to the club but to the location and that, in his opinion, homes would have a better development potential. Other sudience members spoke for and against the proposed construction. Finally, a Mrs. Palmer of Columbus Avenue came forth and said that the facts on the petition opposing the project had been grossly mis- sudience represented, as it had been stated that there would be alcoholic responses beverages dispensed, the noise would be unbearable and that properties surrounding the site would also be zoned commercial. A?��?r. Randall Hughes of Conradia Court agreed with Mrs. Palmer's allegations and said that he was a member of the club and hoped that it would receive favorabl� consideration. riinutes o� the Pla�ning �om��s�i�� �arch �5, 1968 80,000.3 PC-6 page 7 3s Um 68 ��ox�t o d �Iro G.onstantine De�ares of �ion��vi� �ourt t�ld the members of the �omznissi�n th�t he was shocked at the cy�iciscn witta which the opponent� h�d �xesented their case, I�e st�ted that he was a home- owner in Cupertiaxo �nd that he g�°e�tly v�lued his freedom and that of hi� family as long as that fre�d�m did not infringe upon the cynicism freedom of others o I�e ma�nt�iaaed �ha� it wa� inco�nprehensible indicated to hi�n h�ca sigx�tores, living tern bl��k� removed from the pro- posed site had volunteered their signature� on the petition and feared th�t �olitic�l pressures a�a�d ma�euvers might have been a consideratioa�o It was his sincere ka�pe that the application receive f�vor�ibl.e considerationo Gommis�ioner Frolich �sked that the st�ff recommend conditions to be imposed should th�* applicatioa� be graazted and that the staff w�rlc closely with the owne�s �f the club in determining the e�act reasons for the oppositi�n �nd, if possible, obtain staff the wording �f the petitiono Further, that �verything be dis- recommend- cussed a�nd considered at this tim� isa an effort to prevent problems ations later• o requested Commissionez° Ii�xgan said that he was in complete agreement with Gommissioner �°r�lich in that a de�i�nite pl�n is needed now and commissioner's that he, too would like a st�ff developed definite set of ,opinion conditions f.or this application so tfl��t the Commissioners could study this �atter in deptho Glhen Ch�ir�an Buthenuth requested � show of hands for or against show of the �pplicatio�n the "fors" outnu�nbered the "�gainsts" by at hands least 3 �- 1, Com�nissionex° Frolich �oved th�t the fir�t hearing be closed; that 3-U-68 the applicant s�t�empt to solve the v�ri�us items brought out decision in the discussions pxior to the neact meetin� of the Planning postponed Commission� also th�t it be borne in �nind ttaa�t if this applic- ation is approved the Gount� will have �o be consulted relative to the dev�lo��nea�t approval in coax�unction witl� �he Use Permit and cert�inly before a buildixag �aer�ait is �.ssuedo Further, that staff the st�ff with the possibl,e helg froa� tt�e �pponents recosnmend recommend- condi�ioxas to be att�ched to the �ppr�v�l such �s ground lights, ation hours of operation, regulation of tr�ffic, the number of requested membership� and a�rovision, �o retsin control, by the right to review the Use Permit as kaad been suggested� �11 �his so that the Commissioners would have a defini�e background on which to base � de�isiono C�mmissi�a�er Horgan �e�ond�d arad it was passed unanimousl�y o Chair°man Buthenuth called a recess �t 10e10 pomo recess 1°he cneeting x°econvened at 10o2S pomo p8ge g Minutes of the Pl�nni�g �o�missio� March 25, 1968 PC-6 80,000.3 Public I�arings m co�ted 81,003 F� 81�003 Revision of Cuper�ino Genera� Plan Mr, Roy Cameron, the County Planning Director, said that he had little to �dd to his previous st�tements but th�t he would be happy �o �nswer questionsfrom �he �om�issioners �nd the sudience.
