BUSHESS
Attornev's Report
1. WHh rë'i:ardt'o the Batch Plant application and hearings
Mr. Anderson advised the Council that there is nothing
before the Flannine; Commission other than the written
applicatIon rec:uesting a rezoning to H-2-H from M-I-H
of the specific site described in that application. He
discounted the necessity for formal Planning Commission
decision on any verb~l application and said that an
amended or new application would require additional
publicatj.on and notice in the same manner as another.
2. Councl1mcm Meyerholz aslœd the City Attorney to determine
whether the Planr.ing Commission can exercise the H Control
or not. He said that he wss told that this was not their
function. r1r. Anderson said that he would study the
matter but could say at this tiTI'e that the body of law
relative to Flanning Commission decisions was very slight.
Case law being neRligible it woul~ be conjecture as to
what a court would flnË':. A Flanning Commission practices
are established by usa[e.
3. The Council requested that the City send a letter to Peter
Tormey asking him to file a new policy to cover the
operation of the Cupertino Cab Company.
4. Mr. Anderson reported that an annexation map has been
filed by another City, overlapping Homestead 2.
Hssolution No, 89 was introduced, giving notice of the

¡I!r. Myel's re'~erred ·~o the present zoning ordinance of the
Ci ty which rrovicJes, in its reg,ulations for C-l Districts,
certain permitted L,ses. .àmO!ll these are autfmobiJe serv ice
stations, for' (,nly tile se.Ie ()f gasoline oil, and mino:'
excess;Jries. He suge;estecJ. '¡;1~8t the Z,,:Ür;g Ol'cJ.inance be
am';mded with respect to Section 20.A,2 by placin,;; the above
reference to serVlce stations in Section 20.A.3 thus requiring
the su'oJect in each case to secure a permit.
At the present time a gas station is a permitted use in a
cOMmercial zone, there being only C-l-H. The H factor is
intende<'l to control the position of the building on the
property, but very little else. This method will give the
Planning Commission and the City Council the means to
exercise a -pc:,icy r'.etermination until the new zoning
Ordinance is effective. Mr. Myers explained that this
amount.s to chm;ging the status of gas stations from that of
~ermitted use to ttat of use by permit,
