Members of the Council, please know that two items on the agenda this evening, Scenic Circle
Access and SCCP Phase II, as noted below by Ms. Rhoda Fry and in a separate email by Ms. Debi
Jamison, are being provided as an update only. No Council action is being sought.
Scenic Circle is scheduled to go out to bid on December 3rd and bids are scheduled to be
opened on January 18th.
The CEQA comment period for Scenic Circle Access does end on December 6th. Comments provided
within the comment period will be reviewed and presented to Council in the form of CEQA
Documents on January 18th, in conjunction with a discussion of other project details. Council
will then have the opportunity to direct staff on how to proceed.
SCCP Phase II information is being provided on this agenda to give Council adequate time to
begin considering several options of scope and funding. Staff expects to be recommending a
public comment period following the January 18th meeting, depending on the alternative
chosen.
Thank you,
Terry W. Greene, AIA

Dear Council Members:
Happy Thanksgiving!
For public comment on Monday's council meeting - since today is Thanksgiving day, I do not
have the time to make this message as pretty or as politically correct as I'd like...
On Wednesday, I got notice that you will be making two important decisions regarding the
"Stevens Creek Corridor." I have two concerns about this:
1 - Why have your constituents gotten such short notice? The City recently spent quite a bit
of money on a dinner meeting in an effort to encourage collaborative decision - making between
City government and your voters. Monday is not a typical day for a council meeting. We got
notice on Wednesday for this meeting, if Thursday and Friday were business days, I would
expect the meeting to be on Tuesday, to provide 3 full business days notice. However, the
City of Cupertino, along with many other businesses are closed this Thursday and Friday; so
providing notice on Wednesday for a Monday meeting provides ZERO business days notice. THIS
IS NOT OKAY. I fully expect that someone from staff will spend hours in response to this
message with some sort of legal -ease that what has been done is okay - however, I would like
to appeal to your emotional reasons for being voted in as council members and for your future
aspirations in serving the community. This late notice is not appropriate and I would expect
you to postpone these agenda items and apologise to the community for the lapse in good
judgement.
2 - The agenda discusses the Scenic Circle access project. The comment period for this
project ends on December 6, well after the scheduled item. Making decisions about the project
prior to the end of the comment period sends the message to your voters that this project is
completely a done deal; you have no intention on listening (or acting upon) any community
input; and you have no interest in your voters. Another faux -pas in my book.
Best wishes for a fine Thanksgiving.
Kindest Regards,
Rhoda Fry
