CC Exhibit 04-07-15 Oral Communications C(:- Peggy Griffin's Presentation —follow up to Ezekiel Norman — Overcrowded Schools ©pk ..How the City Council ,CAN Help! 2015-04-07 The situation Ezekiel has described applies to all schools in Cupertino. This is a particular issue for students attending middle schools and high schools. In middle school, students are not allowed to leave campus so they must.rely on on-campus cafeterias. 1) The June 2014 DRAFT EIR a) States that the CUSD schools are already over-capacity in 2013 i) Elementary schools are over capacity by almost 1300 students! That's about 2.5 elementary schools! ii) Middle schools are over capacity by over 1450 students! That's about 1.5 middle schools! b) The conclusion in the EIR states: that building 2-story classrooms will solve the problems BUT a school is not made up of just classrooms. 2) They also consist of the facilities needed to serve the larger student population. a) Facilities such as (a) Libraries (b) Labs (c) Cafeterias (d) Lockers (e) Gyms (f) Auditoriums (g) Playground areas (h) Daycare facilities (i) Teacher, staff and student parking lots (j) Additional drop off and pickup zones (2) They don't take into account the lost opportunities to participate in sports because many sports have a fixed number of team members. (3) They don't take into account the lost feeling of community a smaller school provides, especially for younger students. (4) It takes space to expand these facilities and our schools are out of space! Although the state law mandates that the city cannot reject a project based solely on school impact alone • you CAN choose NOT to rezone a property to allow housing • you CAN choose NOT to concentrate housing increases in just one area • you CAN consider parkland. Adding portables to school playground areas reduces our parks! You CAN consider traffic and safety We are asking you to develop our city sensibly and sustainably by preserving our existing zoning and allowing those that want exceptions to use our current laws and procedures to do so. These require a plan be presented and allow for community input before any rezoning is permitted. YOU CAN do this!

"We do have a section of Stevens Creek that's horrendous [traffic], but until the five jurisdictions involved agree to do something, it's going to stay horrendous." L Standardon .
