3. Application HC -51,510.1 - Marius Nelsen requesting approval of architectural
modifications for a previously approved office building. Said property is
located on the north side of Stevens Creek Bouelvard in the Monta Vista area
of Cupertino.
Marius Nelsen proposed to add a door on the east and west elevations of his office
building. The Committee unanimously approved this revision.
4. Application 4-U-81 of Greenleaf: Use Permit to install a mobile trailer, for
security purposes, behind an existing commercial building. The subject property
is located on the north side of Stevens Creek Boulevard approximately 200 ft.
westerly of the Southern Pacific right-of-way in the Monta Vista neighborhood.
The property is zoned P (Planned Development with commercialjindustrial intent).
ASAC stressed the sensitive nature of Monta Vista. The proposed trailer would
be located on a "gateway" property, and would perpetuate a negative image of
Monta Vista. Other developers and the City are investing in this area, and the
proposed trailer was therefore subject to strong ASAC objections.
NEW BUSINESS:
4. Staff was requested to find out the nature of recent activities on 85 right-of-way,
near De Anza College.
5. ASAC Procedural Revisions
The Committee agreed, on a trial basis, to hold meetings on Monday nights
at 7:00 p.m. This change would speed up the new application review process
and allow applicants time to incorporate ASAC's comments into plans submitted
to the Planning Commission.
