Currently the site .. consists of a single- family home, a detached garage and a shed located at the eastern corner of the property. The home is currently accessed by a circular driveway along South Blaney Avenue that leads to the residence and to the detached garage. The existing home that is currently on the site was reviewed by the Historic Research Committee in 1997, and the report concluded that due to the amount of modifications and .4 corner of South Blaney Avenue and TM- 2010 -01 Donna Vingo (Russell Marshall Trustee) April 6, 2010 Page 2 additions to the original structure, and the limited historical impact by the various families who have lived on the site, the home was not historically significant. The house is also not included on the City's General Plan Historic Resources List. All of the existing structures are proposed to be demolished prior to the recordation of the final map. Zoning and General Plan Conformance The subject site is located in a R1 -6 zoning district with minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet. The applicant is proposing to subdivide the existing 41,800 square foot parcel into five single- family residential lots, ranging from 6,461 to 8,890 in size. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan and the R1 Ordinance. Please refer to the March 9, 2010 Planning Commission staff report for additional project details. DISCUSSION Planning Commission On March 9, 2010, the P1anriing Commission recommended with a 4 -0 -1 vote (Coirunissioner Miller abstained) to approve the project. The Commissioner's continents are summarized as follows: • The Commissioners requested that the applicant work with the Public Works Department on the frontage improvement design to preserve as many existing mature trees as possible. Consider meandering sidewalks as an alternative design to minimize the removal of mature trees along the property boundary. A condition has been added requiring further efforts to be made to minimize tree removal resulting from the public improvements of the pro, ect. The Commissioners requested that the applicant recycle and/or donate materials from the existing residence. Condition 4 encourages recycling of the existing building materials. The Commissioners discussed the Design Review Process, and that the future residences should complement the neighborhood, include individual architecture and design elements, and that the materials are of high quality. Condition 3 requires the residences closely resemble the conceptual rendering in architectural design and quality of material. Future design revie�T x also ensure that all of the new home are designed to complement the surrounding residential neighborhood. e The Conunissioners discussed the i:.nportance of including green features throughout the project. Currently, single - family residential projects are not required to include green features. The applicant l said that they have reviewed the Build It Green checklist, and are prepared to discuss at Council vThere they intend to meet the green building objectives of the Guid 25 -2 TM- 2010 -01 Donna Virago (Russell Marshall Trustee) April 6, 2010 Page 3 Public Comments Several neighboring property owners and residents were in attendance of the Commission hearing and expressed the following comments (staff responses are provided in italics): • Concern that the proposed lot sizes were smaller than adjacent parcels - According to the R1 -6 zoning district, minimum lot size for the project is 6,000 square feet. The project proposes five lots ranging from 6,461 square feet to 8,890 square feet in size. Tile average lot size of the neighborhood is between 5,227 to 12,197 square feet. The project is consistent with the R1 Ordinance and compatible with the general lot size /pattern of the neighborhood. • Concerns about privacy from future two -story residences - The project is subject to the R1 Ordinance privacy landscaping regulations. All two -story (side and rear facing) windows With sill heights below five feet will be required to provide privacy plantings consistent with the R1 Ordinance. In addition, per thy? City's current policy, the preservation and maintenance of the required privacy plantings shall be recorded on the property as a covenant. • Concerns that grading of the site will cause run -off onto adjacent parcels - Prior to issuance of building permits, final grading and drainage design will be required and approved by the Public Works Department. The property is required to drain away from neighboring properties. In addition, staff is not anticipating any special drainage concerns or requirements given that the property site ,�s relatively flat in topography. • Concerns that the existing house on the project site is historic and that any significant historic elements and/or building materials should be salvaged and donated - The existing home on the site was reviewed by the Historic Research Committee in 1997, and the report concluded that due to the amount of modifications and additions to the original structure, and the limited histgrical impact by the various families who have lived on the site, the home was"not historically significant. The house has been remodeled and added on over the years and is currentli,' not on may historic inventory. The applicant is encouraged as a condition to recycle or reuse appropriate existing building materials if feasible. • Concerns that the future home designs will not be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood - The applicant has agreed to a condition that requires design revie7o approval for all five homes prior to recordat;'on of the final ivap, The applicant has provided architectural concepts for Lot 1 in order represent the level of design quality anticipated for the future residences (see Color Rendering ill attached plan set), Future design review i(411 ensure that all of the new homes are Toell- designed with quality materials and architectural style /details that will complement the surrounding residential neighbor -hood.

Currently the site consists of a single- family home, a detached garage and a shed located at the eastern corner of the property. The home is currently accessed by a circular driveway along South Blaney Avenue that leads to the residence and to the detached garage. The existing home that is currently on the site was reviewed by the Historic Research Con in 1997, and the report concluded that due to the amount of modifications and additions to the original structure, and the limited historical impact by the various families who have lived on the site, the home was not historically significant. The house is also not included on the City's General Plan Historic Resources List. All of the existing structures are proposed to be demolished prior to the recordation of the final map. Zoning and General Plan Conformance The subject site is located in a R1 -6 zoning district with minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet. The applicant is proposing to subdivide the existing 41,800 square foot parcel into five single- family residential lots, ranging from 6,461 to 8,890 in size. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan and the R1 Ordinance. DISCUSSION Subdivision Design The proposed five parcels are configured in a manner to allow 0 o of the lots (Lots 1 and 2) to face and access South Blaney Avenue, and Lots 3, 4 and 5 to be accessed from Clifford Drive (see Tentative Parcel Map, Attaclunent 1). 25 -14 TM- 2010 -01 Donna uig+to (Russell Marshall Trustee) February 23, 2010 Vinuo Page 3 Conceptual House Plan (Lott) Typically, for a subdivision of this size, especially when the property is irregular in shape and located in a dense residential neighborhood, the City prefers to review and approve the design of the homes in conjunction with the subdivision map request. The concept is that when a subdivision is approved, the future property owners assume the right to build in accordance with R1 Ordinance. Therefore, potential building design and interface should be considered at the subdivision review phase to ensure that proper and reasonable house designs may be approved without compromising the integrity of the neighborhood. Due to financial considerations, the applicant is not able to subinit full architectural and site plans for all five lots. Instead, a conceptual plan of Lot 1 has been provided to demonstrate that it can facilitate a reasonable and compatible house design. The applicant has also agreed to a condition tha: requires full design revieTv approval for all five homes prior to recordation of the final map. The architectural details illustrated in "Play. 1(Lot 1) Front Elevation - Spanish Style" are intended to represent the level of design duality anticipated for the future residences (see Color Rendering in Attaclunent 1). The details are attractive and will enhance the neighborhood. 25 -15 TM- 2010 -01 Donna Vigno (Russell Marshall Trustee) February 23, 2010 Page 4 Staff supports the proposed project provided that final house design on lot 5 shall be consistent with the conceptual plan included with this review. Site Improvements Frontage improvements will involve the construction of street frontage along South Blaney Avenue and Clifford Drive consisting of a 10' street dedication for curb, gutter, sidewalk and landscape strip. The applicant will work with staff on the number, location, and species of the neiv street trees within the landscape strip. TrPPc The project is anticipated to remove approximately 26 trees. The trees are being proposed for removal because they are either located in the public improvement area, located within the buildable area of the future residences, or are insignificant i11 size and species. None of the trees are protected per the Zoning Ordinance (14.18.035). Staff recommends that the formal tree removal request and any mitigation /replacement plan be reviewed and approved In conjtulctlon with the full submittal of the design review for the five homes. Cupertino Sanitary District The Cupertino Sanitary District has reviewed the project and states that sanitary sewer service can be provided to the proposed parcels via South Blaney Avenue (see Attachment 2). 25 -16 TM- 2010 -01 Donna Vigno (Russell Marshall Trustee) February 23, 2010 Page 5 Categorical Exemption The proposed project is deemed categorically exempt per Section 15333, Class 33 (In -Fill Development Projects) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) since the project is characterized as follows: (a) The project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and regulations. (b) The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses. (c) The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species.

Com. Kaneda arrived at the meeting. Gary Chao answered Commissioners' questions regarding the application. Mike McClellan, McClellan Development, Applicant: • Thanked staff for their efforts. • Said that they accept the staff reconunendations, and understand the concern about future building and the need to understand what the city's fixture housing is going to be, As staff mentioned, they volunteered to go through a frill design review prior to any lot being recorded, which will set the criteria for each lot before the recordation, and it stays with the lot until any action may be taken to change it. They fully intend to provide a project that has variation and meets the local nei Chair Brophy opened the public hearing. 25 -18 Cupertino Planning Commission 3 March 9, 2010 Dr. Ram Swaminathan, Pacifica Drive, Cupertino: • Expressed concern about the five dense houses in front of his 3,500 square feet, with large lot, and said he felt the large number of houses in front of his property would devalue his property. He said that his neighbor across the street also had the same concern. Loghashankar Srinivasan, nearby resident, Cupertino: • Concerns related to if there would be a fence; its height and which side it would face; and if there would be any privacy trees planted. • Asked if there was a possibility that the building setback could be increased; the number of floors for three lots, and windows; they do not want them facing directly into their house. Is the grading of the slope towards Blaney or Clifford or towards the houses; what is the duration of the construction; and make sure the grading is not facing towards the houses internally in case of flooding. Jennifer Griffin, Rancho Rinconada resident: • Discussed the possibility that the existing home on the property was of historical value; although it was determined in 1997 by the Historical Society that it wasn't of historical value. She said that if it was going to be demolished, there is a need for materials for Victorian homes being remodeled and rather than bulldozing the home, there may be use for the salvage materials. There are also some large redwood trees on the property. Keith Murphy, East Estates Drive: • Questioned whether the house was going to be saved, and referred to what occurred to the Anderson property behind Fairgrove which was an old farmouse which sat there for a long time; that property got divided and now it is high density in that area. There were many issues with the Fairgrove neighborhood and the surrounding neighborhood. He suggested people go over there and look at that preserved house and new development and see how that works out before the topic property is consigned to the same fate. Could the house be donated to the city, put on a park for some other use so the house doesn't have to be lost; perhaps the comrrnrnity could get some use out of it, perhaps the property owner could sell or donate it to get a write off. There are also issues if it will match with the sun neighborhood. The Anderson property sticks out like a sore thumb. He ;recalled that the Fairgrove people said to put up windows that didn't look into the properties because they are all one story properties and there were different architectural design; and he questioned whether those concerns would be debated before any approval. Sonal Abhyanker, Betty Drive: • Asked if the applicant had a website that illustrated samples of their homes developed in the past. Chair Brophy closed the public hearing. Gary Chao responded to speakers' questions: Regarding privacy, the homes are located in R 1 -6 zoning districts; in the R1 zoning districts, there are provisions for privacy considerations and protections; namely it depends on what sort of homes are going to be proposed. For example, Lot 1, the applicant is showing conceptually a single story house; with a single story house the R1 ordinance doesn't provide any privacy protection for obvious reasons; there shouldn't be any concerns with regards to that. For a two -story which the applicant will likely be entertaining on some of the lots, there are privacy protection measures such as for windows with sill heights under 5 feet on second floor; new second floor that there ought to be considerations for privacy screening, either 25 -19 Cupertino Planning Commission 4 March 9, 2010 through the city's preapproved list of shrubberies or trees within the cone of vision dictated by the ordinance that the applicant would have to plant new vegetation along the property lines; and as part of the approval process; not only do they have to plant the trees and shrubberies, that the trees and shrubs will be recorded on the property as a covenant that they are required to be maintained and preserved running with the land so that the next owners don't cut them down. There is that protection locked in place. The applicant has the ability to work things out with the neighbors, whether it is higher fence or additional measures; that could be agreed upon and the two property owners or neighbors could come together and sign a waiver to dictate your own mitigation mechanism and the city would be happy to accept those things in lieu of their requirements. • In terms of fencing, the ordinance does allow fencing up to 8 feet. Anything over 6 feet requires consent from both properties. The applicant could propose a 6 -foot fence without going through any special measures. • Public works will evaluate grading and storm runoff and the site peripheral improvements; gutter, curb; by law any residential houses are not permitted to be graded so that the runoff would go into a neighbor's yard. All the runoff would have to go to the storm drain system that eventually would lead into the street. In answer to the question relating to the direction of grading, it is going to be graded toward the street, away from the property lines. • Relative to the duration of the construction, the applicant will respond. Staff requires the applicant to control any construction activities from occurring outside of the allowable hours of construction, usually 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. weekdays, and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends. • In terns of the historic consideration for the site, Mrs. Griffm is correct in that the site has been evaluated in the 90s and based on that report, this project had been ranked very low on that report. The home was built around 1890; even though there is some history to it, it has been changed so many times, and the home has undergone upgrades and revisions to the windows and roof. Consequently the Board at the time said that while possibly in its original state it probably had some value, but given the changes occurring over time, it is not of any significance. • There is a policy that will be corning forward directed by the City Council that the Conunission is going to be reviewing soon; however, the Council is clear that they don't want to evaluate any residential homes and put them on the list. They want to look at historic sites, commercial, quasi- public properties. This is not going to be on the radar for that review; nor should we think that it should be part of a consideration for preservation. The applicant does have the ability to voluntarily look at ways to recycle and keep parts; but that is their decision. Corn. Giefer: Referring to the subdivision, she said she understood they could not prohibit them from selling off the lots individually, although it is being conditioned not to record the final map until the design review. Could they sell the rights to that subdivision and allow someone to come in and create their own architectural assessment, bundle it up or have those reviewed individually and can they record portions of the map act; or does it have to be recorded at one time? Can they record a partial map? City Attorney: • The map has to be recorded as a whole. The understanding of the condition is they have to come forward with what they propose to develop before the map gets finalized. The intent is to have design review for all the lots for the final map recordation to be released. Com. Giefer: • The work plan also includes green building and it is hoped to have a residential green building policy before the end of the year. She asked what the applicant's timeline is to break ground 25-20 Cupertino Planning Commission March 9, 2010 and begin the project. Even though it is not conditioned at this point; would they be required to meet any green building plans that are finally approved over the next 12 months? City Attorney: • Typically the law in effect at the time if somebody comes in to pull a building permit is what they have to comply with; if the city concludes its green building adoption of its policy or its provisions, particularly if it does anything by ordinance and that ordinance is in effect at that time they come in for their building pennit, they will have to abide by that. Com. Giefer: • Said she was making the differentiation if they don't have the policy by the time they come in for design approval, and then by the time they finally break ground or pull permits, if they do have a policy in place, that is when they would have to meet those requirements. Gary Chao: • Said they could also specify provisions to address that in the Green Building Ordinance. City Attorney: • Normally there is some indication to try to deal with things that are in the pipeline, depends upon what point they are in the pipeline at the time the provisions are adopted. Not knowing how specific the design review would be vs. the component parts of the Green Building Ordinance, it is difficult to give a definitive answer; but to the extent that the design review is a broader brush sort of depiction of what is going to go there, w hen you get to the details, that is when usually those green building things are triggered. Applicant: • Said relative to timeline, they anticipated to start construction by the fourth quarter. With regards to green sensitivity, they will make efforts to follow the Build -A -Green reconunendations. We have done what they could and it continues to be defined. Com. Giefer: • Said she was concerned with the established mature trees on the lot and would like the city to take it seriously and see if they could work the sidewalk around the existing trees. She said she understood they would not save all the trees, but if possible, it makes more sense than mowing them down and planting them with 20 gallon trees. • She said that if the Conunission agrees to that, she would like the staff to add it. She also struggled with the green building because she felt it was going to be an advance of green building policy and she wasn't comfortable with the answer and did not know what to do about that because they don't currently have in ordinance that requires that. Gary Chao: • Relative to the green building ordinance timetable they are gearing toward the public outreach phase, and are starting to solicit contracts foi consultants and once that is in place they will be notifying for focus group meetings. It will be in May/June where it is going to be at the public hearing stage for adoption. Cam. Giefer: • Said it is difficult for the conununity whenever a stricture has been there forever, and there is history with previous families, previous owners and who we think help drive development of our community; and whenever there is a green field as this may be considered, where there is a home with some history behind it, it is difficult to say we are going to move forward bulldoze 25 -21 Cupertino Planning Commission 6 March 9, 2010 that home and subdivide and increase density in the neighborhood. There is always that emotional side of any redevelopment proposal that comes in. This is consistent; it meets the General Plan, and meets our zoning. If we have agreement from the Planning Commission with regards to trying to salvage as many of the existing trees through the public right of way sidewalk, I would move forward on that. Gary Chao: • Said a condition could be added to state that to the maximurn extent possible the staff shall work with the applicant and Public Works staff to preserve as many trees as feasible. Chair Brophy: • Said he was not looking to add a condition to this but if the applicant could look at the house and to the extent that Mrs. Griffin's point and Mr. Murphy's point that there may be redwood or other useful materials that could be recycled, the Commission would appreciate that. Gary Chao: • Said there is a condition that addresses that in terms of recycling, which is a standard condition. Com. Kaneda: • Explained the process of deconstruction where a deconstruction company comes in and takes down a home and salvages the materials; it costs about the same amount as demolition but the materials are salvaged and there is a write off, which covers the cost of the deconstruction. Motion: Motion by Com. Giefer, second by Com. Kaneda, and carried 4 -0 -1, Com. Miller abstained, to approve Application TM- 2010 -01 with the additional language added specifically to request Public Works to try to preserve as many trees as possible in the public right -of -way Brophy declared a recess. 3.
