ITEM 3 (Coact'd)
Chr. Szabo stated that any person who wished to address the Criasion on
this Application could do so.
Mr. David Hobson, 22655 Oak Crest Court, Cupertino, stated that the grade
differential, by his estimate, may be three to four feet. The Applicant's
building partially blocks the rear section of the adjoining property.
Originally the Planning CO maission suggested, and Mr. Hobson agreed, there
should be no fence between the property of the Applicant and his property.
The proposed carport would dwarf the lot owned by Mr. Hobson. Three
parking stalls would be acceptable; however, five stalls with an adjacent
trash bin will block in, and detract fraan, the speaker's property.
He stated that a new office building is being developed on the property at
present and is about one-half completed. The property line is
approximately five feet from this two story office build
ing.
Mr'. Doug Healy, Applicant, presented pictures to demonstrate the
development of the property. He stated that originally this was a mixed
use project which has been vastly improved.
40 They did not anticipate a problem with the proposed carport structure;
all that will be visible to adjoining property owners are two support
posts. The Applicants feel that this is an attractive addition to their
property and will not harm the integrity of neighboring properties.
Mt. Healy stated, in response to Can. Mackenzie's question, that the roof
of the carport is at 4 & 12 pitch and will be completed in a similar
finish as other buildings on the property.
MOTION: Cam. Mackenzie moved for approval of the minor amendment to
Application 2-U-84.
SECOND: Cam. Claudy
VOTE: Passed 5-0
Chr. Szabo stated that there is a 10 day appeal period for this action.

***planning Conission Action Final Unless Appealed***
Staff Presentation: Mr. PiaseckiHlstated that the Applicant proposes to
resubdivide three parcels into two parcels.
,
Mr. Jahn Perusina, 10909 So. Stelling Rd., Cupertino, stated that he was
the owner of the property in question until 1958. The DeAnza Group and
Everett and Beverly Peterson purhaseid this property last year.
The Perusina's approached the Publicl!'Works Department to determine how the
Peter's acquired this property. 'Heystates that this property was never
offered to them for repurchase rior, was he notified by mail of the
agreement between the Alden Company land I the Petersons.
The section in question is a 20 foatlajoining parcel and they feel first
option to buy should have been given tp them. •
Applicant's Presentation: Mr. Jlohni Shoulupole, civil engineer for the
Alden Company, stated that the question seems to be whether Mr. Perusina
has right of succession or an optionjtolpurbase the 20 foot parcel.
jV!
The dispute arose when the Alden chose in favor.of using the
Peterson's property to access existing sewer facilities rather than going
across state property. After cyOpletion, the question of compensation
was decided when the Petersons settled in favor of acquiring an extension
of their property, namely, the parcel'alin question.

This Application proposes, in effect, that the existing Lot 31 be
subdivided into two parcels. Mr ;Peterson feels that this 20 foot wide
strip is of great value to the', future use of his
placement of the street. I' property given the
In response to questions by theOcOmissioners, Mr. Shoulupole stated that
both the Alden Company and the Petexsbns have joined in this Application.
Mr. Perusina stated that he is , making no claim to ownership of the
property in question at this time. io

ITEM 4 (Cont'd)
Mts. Clara Perusina stated that she was present at former Planning
Commission meetings where the suggestion was made that previous owners be
approached and offered an opportunity to repurchase the parcel in
question. The Minutes of this meeting, however, do not reflect this nor
were previous owners ever approached with an option to buy.
Mr. Piasecki stated that the City has no jurisdiction over whether the
Alden Company offers this property to former owners or not. In response
to further questions by Mts. Perusina, The Chairman suggested that a
lawyer be consulted by them if a dispute of ownership exists.
In response to Mr. Perusina's comments, Cam. Claudy stated that he saw two
issues of concern:
1) The Perusinas belief that the rights to the property should have been
offered to them with a first option to buy the parcel. This will need
to be settled with the Alden Company.
2) The concern by the Perusinas that the City has not been forthcoming
with correct information. The City Manager would be the appropriate
person to contact in this case.

ITEM 5 (Corxt'd)
Staff Presentation: Mr. Piasecki stated that the applicants have worked
extensively with the Staff on the issue of the trip count, building size
and development of a style that would mesh with existing residential
structures. Ample parking has been provided. Condition 26 provides for
tree protection.
In response to questions by the C rmissioners, Mr. Piasecki stated that
he had no knowledge of problems of drainage on site. The Staff left the
decision regarding the roof overhang to the discretion of the architect
and views the proposed roof as consistent with the style of the building.
Applicant's Presentation: Mr. Bill Hagman, project architect, made
himself available for questions.
Mr. John Kontrabecki, developer of the project, stated that their
company's offices will be moved to this building, and will comprise 25%
occupancy.
In response to Com. Adams' question, the speaker stated that a review of
the office market in Cupertino shows that the needs of the corporate user
are being adequately addressed or oversupplied. This project will be
better suited to professional office use, i.e., lawyers, dentists and
other professionals.

ITEM 6 (Cont'd)
Ms. Marootte stated that the traditions of Cipertino are not being saved
and asked the Commissioners to save same of these landmarks.
Mt. Piasecki stated that allowing removal of the trees is in conjunction
with the Site Plan as has been the case with this Application. However,
the blue spruce tree, mentioned by Ms. Marcotte is to be retained.
Cam. Mackenzie requested a review of the original Site Plan; Mr. Piasecki
stated that there was a notation in the Staff Report that addressed Tree
Preservation and noted that the Applicant proposed to preserve only one of
the thirty trees on the property.
In response to Cam. Adams' comments regarding trees on the property which
now are budding, Mr. Piasecki stated that the Plan noted that the Walnut
'Dees were dead. In addition, a number of other trees were scheduled to
be removed.
Mt. Martin Miller, Architectural and Site Approval Committee Memmber,
stated that the single most important unifying elements of Stevens Creek
Blvd. are the landscaping and the setback.
411 Granting a Variance is done to relieve a hardship beyond the making of the
developer; in this case, the depths of the lot were set when the original
application was filed by Mr. Vidovich. Applicants for a similar shopping
center were extremely acooamtrodating in making sure that the Site was
developed in a way that preserved the integrity of the neighboring
residents, net the setback requirements and made allowance for limited
depth of retail space.
Mr. Miller does not see justification for a variance in this case; he
urged the Commission to maintain the unifying elements of Stevens Creek
Blvd.
Mr. Boyd responded that the Site Plan will be reviewed by ASAC and that a
report from a landscape architect will be submitted. The Applicants have
every intention of saving trees where possible. The landscape architect
has identified two trees that he considers significant and worth saving.
Specimen trees can be put in to replace the trees removed.
Mr. Piasecki stated that final approval of the tree removal plan rests
with the Commission.

Application 9-U-83 (Revised) -Seven Springs Ranch (Gregory Group) -
Revised Phasing Schedule.
Staff Presentation: Mr. Gowan stated that the Planning Ccamaission, upon
approval of the Tentative Map for the Seven Springs Ranch subdivision,
adopted a Minute Order which established a phasing plan for construction.
The Applicant has submitted an application for a change in the phasing
plan; the original Phase I plan, Wasto build the model homes area near
Stelling Road access and same of : the peripheral landscaping along the
eastern boundary. pu
. The Applicants have defined some i of the timing problems they are
encountering. They are requestingl'pemission to build the Upland Way and
Rainbow Drive area in the first ;;'phase and the model homes area in the
second phase.
The Staff is favorable to the charges requested, with the following
recommendations:
1) in _conjunction with approval of the Revised Phasing schedule, the two IIIhome sites closest to theSatthiern Pacific Right-of-Way be delayed.
This allows the Planning Commission to review the access configuration
if difficulties occur with ,,;the Public Utilities Commission in
completing the grade crossing.
2) financial guarantees be obtained to ensure that Phases II and III will
be completed as approved
1 i,11
The final issue is the Up
Applicant's proposal to exclude or give limited
membership in the Homeowners Association the perimeter hhos es on. land
Way and Rainbow Drive.

In response to Cam. Mackenzie'sAuestion, Mr. Cowan stated that the
Planning Commission permitted and the City Council approved a Tentative
Subdivision Map of the development; the Commission subsequently approved
the Phasing Plan in a Minute a;'' •1 . Thus the Tentative Map will be
recorded based on the Phasing Plan. 1;
Cam. Claudy stated his concerns ,about the phasing of projects; the Staff
Report infers future plans and i 1changes. There were numerous hearings
which resulted in decisions that effect the community regarding the layout
and the design of the development Of this property. The Commissioner will
not give approval to requests for significant changes in this development.

ITEM 8 (Ccnt'd)
Applicant's Presentation: Mt. Harry Lalor, Civil Engineer and
Representative of the Gregory Group, presented two exhibits for the
Commission's review.
1) The first exhibit showed the Conditions of the existing Phasing,i.e. ,
the initial Use Permit. Initial phasing would have developed the
model hones and the recreation areas first.
The City requested that major perimeter streets be constructed; thus
Rainbow Drive, Stelling Rd. and Prospect were developed in the first
phase.
2) Once the models were constructed, the landscaping and the sou dwa11
along the railroad tracts were to be built.
3) In order to provide protection to the neighboring residents, the
project was to be started in the northwest corner and develop in a
southeasterly direction.
The Gregory Group wishes to begin immediately and to construct the project
as it was approved, with the guarantees provided to the CLmission, the
City Council and the neighborhood residents.
The Application to the Public Utilities Cnission for the grade crossing
was filed April 10th.
Under the Revised Phasing Plan, the Applicants propose the completion of
the single family hones on the perimeter lots adjacent to Rainbow Drive
and Upland Way, construction of perimeter improvements on Upland Way,
installation of the off-site improvements on Stelling Read and Prospect.
All of the off-site infrastructure originally proposed would be completed.
Construction of a road crossing over the railroad tracts will not be done
at this time. This is the only change and is being requested since
approval for this construction has not been given and probably will not be
obtained until completion of the first phase of this project.
The next phase, in 1987, will be construction of the model homes and the
recreational facilities. Finally, construction of the soundwall and
perimeter landscaping along the railroad tracts will proceed along with
construction of the production models. They wish to start construction of
the production models in and adjacent to the model home telex (starting
on the easterly side of the project) to establish better traffic flow.

ITEM 8 (Cont'd)
Mr. Lalor stated that they would be happy to have the 19 lot subdivision
recorded and give the City a covenant or a deed restriction for the two
easterly lots that they would not be built until the PUC permission is
obtained. This would be a sufficient guarantee.
Comm. Mackenzie suggested the statement, "no transfer in ownership until
PUC approval is received."
Mr. Cowan asked for confirmation that interior production in Phase III
will start at the northeast corner of the property and consist of
approximately one-half of the frontage on Rainbow Drive.
Comm. Mackenzie suggested the following wording of the resolution: In
Phase III, the remaining ni dwelling units will be built out proceeding from
Rainbow Drive in a southerly direction.
Comm. Claudy suggested a change in wording in the First Phase:
Construction of 19 dwelling units along Rainbow Drive and Upland Way is
approved. Construction of the 2 easterly units is contingent upon either:
- Approval of the Public Utilities Commission for a grade crossing, or
- A letter to the Public Utilities Camaission from the Southern Pacific
Railway on file showing that Southern Pacific is not in opposition to
the grade crossing.
- A covenant recorded on the Tentative Map.
IVTION: Comm. Mackenzie moved for approval of a Minute Order concerning
Application 9-U-83 (Revised) authorizing modification of the
approved project phasing plan.
SECOND: Comm. Sorensen
VOTE: Passed 5-0
