PUBLIC HEARINGS
MACKAY HOMES: Application 8-Z-65 to rezone 33 acres,
approximately, from R-1:B-2 to R-1, adjoining the east
-Z-GJ side of Foothill Boulevard, south side of Hartman.
-`1M-G5� Recommended for approval by Planning Commission Resolu-
tion No. 272 June 14, 1965. (Ordinance 313)
I George Somps represented the applicant and posted a map
of the site which he described as the former Eaton property,
Applicant is asking City to rezone from R-1:B-2 to R-1,
approximately 33 acres. He also referred to the one acre
in the next application -on the agenda. Mackay is seeking
R-3-H on Application 7-Z-65.
Somps combined items VI A and VI B in his presentation.
The R-3-H phase is composed of five lots fronting on
Foothill Blvd. He said the present zoning would allow
three lots. He is asking for R-3-H which requires archi-
tectural and Site approval in order to assure compatibility
with the immediate neighborhood. In describing the sur-
roundings, he said that Cook and Wilson have had property
zoned R-3-H along the east side of this site and on the
westerly side of the site across Foothill Blvd. Pringle -
wood Subdivision has R-2-H immediately to the north of the
Mackay property. On this basis, he described the applica-
tion as compatible with the existing zoning and comprising
a logical pattern, which would have no adverse influence
on the adjoining R-l. He is proposing a split level street
with a divider between two 30-foot sections.
Councilman Noel asked the applicant what is proposed for
the lands marked Santa Clara County. Somps answered that
the area marked "Lands of Santa Clara County" is designated
for the widening of Foothill Blvd.
The Mayor called on those people who submitted cards indi-
cating they wish to speak.
Walter S. Ainsworth, 10629 Ainsworth Drive, posted a map
of the entire area and described the developments thereon.
Four weeks ago a nearby house sold for $43,500. Creston
Drive is the longest cul de sac in the County, he said,
in referring to the circuitous route necessary to reach
Foothill Boulevard. At the present time this is the
only way to get in or out of Creston Subdivision. StarlinE
Drive is only 38 feet from curb to curb and Creston Drive
will be permanently closed due to the freeway construction,
At the present time the traffic through Creston Subdivision
is very.heavy, including school buses. The vast majority
of the people are traveling north causing even greater
congestion. He reviewed the fact that all of the lots in
Creston Subdivision (which is outside the city limits)
are 10,000 square feet or more. The houses in Rivercrest
Subdivision, which is within the city limits and located
- 2 -
I
at the far end of Creston Drive are also very expensive, some
as costly as $65,000. With a 5-acre park site nearby, Mr.
Ainsworth claims that it is not good planning to route all
those people and all that traffic through one narrow entrance.
He closed by stating that the applicant wants to use existing
streets paid for by others to serve his new houses.
Adde Laurin, Planning Director, said that a third access was
a condition of Planning Commission approval, also, that the
density is limited to 111 lots.
George Somps stated that the average lot size would be 9,555
feet and would thus conform to existing zoning although nomin-
ally different from R-1:B-2.
Brainerd Plehn, 10538 Chace Dr., asked about the other two
access roads indicated by the City Planner. Laurin described
them as Crescent,Starling and Alpine,
Mr. Plehn said that one road only is actually proposed by the
applicant but the Planning Commission would apparently like
three. Also, the proposal will involve dumping the apartment
traffic directly onto Foothill Blvd. He referred to the fact
that Creston Drive, now closed, was 60 feet in comparison to
its substitute named Starling which is only 38 feet.
David Minnery, 22160 Cloverleaf Court, asked that the petition
be.read as it was submitted to the Planning Commission. The
Mayor called for a reading of the petition which was signed
by 198 people.
Jerry Newcomer, 22371 Hartman Drive, stated that he agreed
with other speakers; that he is opposed to the application.
He also said that an additional right of way could be secured
by sacrificing one or two lots.
Nadine Raymond, 22351 Hartman Drive, agreed with the other
opponents and reiterated that one means of access is not suf-
ficient and that the additional traffic through Starling Drive
would be inconvenient and hazardous because the street is a
terrible problem now.
Mrs. Warren Roberts, 22391 Hartman Drive, said that the use
of Crescent is not feasible since it would make an impossible
grade to Stevens Creek Road, in her opinion.
There were no further speakers on the subject; moved by
Councilman Finch, seconded by Councilman Stokes, that the
public hearing on application 8-Z-65 be closed.
AYES: Councilmen: Finch, Fitzgerald, Noel, Stokes,
Dempster
NOES: Councilmen: None
ABSENT: Councilmen: None
Motion carried, 5-0
Mr. Laurin explained that Foothill Blvd. is presently combin-
ing the functions of an expressway, a local street, and a
playground, thus causing some of the problems mentioned. He
said he is in favor of saving the ornamental oak trees.
Councilman Fitzgerald asked if it is possible to create access
over to Alpine Drive.
George Somps referred to Lots 18 and 19 stating that an ease-
ment in that location would connect to Alpine assuming they
could get the adjoining owners to deed the necessary right
of way. The other owners are Cook and Wilson and their prop-
erty is now zoned R-3-H. Somps stated that Cook and Wilson
would probably be willing if the Council would make them some
-3-
0
concession on lot size in exchange for the right of way.
Councilman Noel asked if they can consider the zoning properly
without seeing the tentative map.
Mr. Laurin answered in the affirmative. George Somps stated
that the adjoining subdivision controlled by Cook and Wilson
had been presented to the County prior to the incorporation
'of the City of Cupertino. Subsequently the property was an-
nexed to the City and one access road was eliminated by the
City Council from.the LaCresta Subdivision, Unit No. 2. If
the City can negotiate with Cook and Wilson for additional j
right of way, it would help the traffic situation, he said.
Councilman Stokes asked the Director of Public Works if the
divided street is agreeable to him. Mr. Finney answered that
a divided street.is an acceptable way of doing it providing
the grade is not too steep.
Councilman Finch, in referring to the tentative map question
raised by Noel, stated that the land use is now the question,
that the zoning is the matter before them, that the tentative
map will be presented soon and will have to be considered by
the Council at that time. He maintained that he can see no
other use for'the property and the question of the street pat-
tern must be considered as a part of the tentative map.
The Mayor took the position that the access should be indicated
in the motion relative to zoning, that another access in addi-
tion to Starling should be provided, that if the property is
to be R-1, adequate use of Alpine. Drive and Crescent Drive
must be secured.
Moved by Councilman Finch.that application 8-,-Z-65 be approved
as per the recommendation of the Planning Commission in Re-
solution 272. Seconded by Councilman Fitzgerald.

VI B. MACKAY HOMES: Application 7-Z-65 for rezoning 1.1 acres
from R-1:B-2 to R-3-H; east side of Foothill Blvd. Denied
n�^ wk by Planning Commission Resolution No. 271 June 14, 1965.
C�,I-wt Appeal.
Walter Ainsworth, 10629 Ainsworth Drive, stated that all the
people in Pringlewood object strenuously to apartments up
against their houses. The beautiful homes on Starling Court
would suffer substantial depreciation in the event that the
proposed apartments are constructed, he said.
George Somps-said that the applicant would be willing to
tape R-2-H if the City Council prefers.

by Councilman Finch.

Councilman Noel asked if the lots are 9,300 square feet as
required by City Ordinance. Somps answered in the affirmative.
Councilman Noel asked if applicant planned to remove the large
oak trees on the site. Somps answered that the builder is very
much interested in saving the trees, as much so as anyone else,
since these trees do have a monetary value, perhaps $1,000
apiece, which when added to the cost of several hundred dollars
to remove amounts to a substantial sum.
Councilman Noel asked if they could put R-1 on any of the five
lots. Somps answered that the application represents the high-
est and best use of the land.
Mr. Laurin said that the preservation of the oak trees is a
valid reason to deny. It is especially hard to save trees in
an R-3 zone because of the parking requirements. The Planning
Commission has voted.to.deny the application, the implication
being that R-1 is the proper use. Robert Johnson of the Plan-
ning Commission stated that the street pattern should face
internally. Councilman Fitzgerald said the slope would make
it difficult for the traffic to use Foothill Blvd. He said
the property should be R-1.
Moved by Councilman Fitzgerald that application 7-Z-65 be
denied. Seconded by Councilman Noel.

instead of forcing them to drive.

The Mayor said the question should be advertised as a public
hearing and should be open to the public if the Council is
to consider the matter.
Councilman Stokes said that the question this time has been
precipitated by Bonacich and Headlee, the adjoining owners.
Councilman Stokes said that he cannot see any immediate basis
for a decision by the Council. Councilman Finch took the
position that the question should be decided now rather than
subsequent to the development of the remaining Wilson property
along Stevens Creek Blvd, because the disposition of this
right of way will directly affect the nature of the devel-
opment. He proposed this as the procedure rather than a
decision to wait and see what happens along Stevens Creek
Blvd. Councilman Fitzgerald said he is in favor of dropping
it.

and Headlee be denied. Motion dies for lack of a second.

XI NEW BUSINESS
A. Road Priorities
The City Manager reported that the improvement and widening of
Bubb Road at Regnart Creek can be accomplished with Collier -Unruh
Gas Tax. The re -alignment of Regnart Creek and Regnart Road is
also a project for consideration this year. This project --
Bubb Road at•the creek along with the re -alignment of the creek
and Regnart Road can be done in two sections or it can be done
as one project. Mr. Storm said that he imagined a better bid
would be available if done in one project. He recommended that
the Council authorize the plans and specifications for the Bridge
and also for the re -alignment of the Regnart Creek and Regnart
Road. The Bridge plans must have state approval since the con-
struction will be financed -by gas tax.
Frank Finney, Director of Public Works, stated that the estimates
for the Bubb Road culvert-is,$43,000. This would include removal
of the existing bridge. Thetotal project including re -alignment
of the Creek and re -alignment -of Regnart Road is estimated at
$99,268., say $100,000, The estimate made at the May 18th meet-
ing is.not changed .sufficiently to alter the.project in any way.
The,remai.ning $56 - 57,000 over and above the aforementioned
$43,000 for the Bubb Road culvert would be split between the
developer Ward Crump, the City,,and the County,Flood Control.
Mr. :Finney said that County F1.00d'Control will:co.ntribute about
$12,000, toward the entire project, 'this being the amount they
estimate they can save on the future maintenance of the creek.
The beveloper of Baywood Terrace has previously.indicated he
would contribute $17,000 "toward the cost of this project. That
would leave about $27,000 as the.City's share.of the second phase -
Mr. Finney concluded by.saying there is.a slight possibility that
County Flood Control might add $5,000 to their payment.
.Mayor pro tern Stokes said that the Council should review the
entire capital improvement program before deciding on this par-
ticular.item.
-:The City Manager stated that the Stevens.Creek Blvdproject
will cost around $700,000 including $25,000 from the City. The
L.I.D. around DeAnza College is estimated by the consulting civil
engineers at $1,358,000. This would include the City expenditure
of $25,000 for a traffic signal at Stelling and Stevens -.Creek
Blvd. -- a 4-way type with provision for left turns. Another
signal would cost the City $5,000, that being 50% of the expense
for a signal at Stelling and Peppertree. The.City would incur
a..$10,Q00.obligation for an island in Stevens Creek Blvd. mak-
ing the total $65,000.
The City Manager reported that there will be approximately
$156,000 of gas tax funds available by June 1966., The reloca-
tion of storm drain lines will be paid from the storm drain funds.:,
He reiterated that the Bubb Road culvert and Regnart Creek and
Road projects could proceed if Council authorizes :the plans and
specifications.. They will go first to the State and then back
to the City Council for final decision. In this way the project
could be advertised and contract awarded before the winter months,.
Relative to Mr. Crump's payment of $17,000, an agreement could
be prepared for his. signature at-the'time of awarding the contrac,.
Mayor pro tem Stokes indicated approval of the entire project run-
ning around $100000 but questioned the procedure whereby Mr.
Crump would pay in his share. He'asked about the possibility of
having an agreement prepared for Crump's signature at the present
time and prior to advertising the plans and specifications. Mr.
Crump stated that he had formerly indicated willingness to pay
$17,000 toward the project. He re -affirmed the fact that he
will pay $17,000 toward the cost of the project.
Moved by Councilman Finch that the City staff be authorized
to proceed with the preparation of the plans and specifications
for the Bubb Road culvert and the Regnart Creek re -alignment and
the Regnart Road re -alignment as indicated.. Seconded by Council-
man Noel.

Neighborhood Park ' Dedication' 'and suggested that the City
sign a Resolution to the Governor urging the Governor's

immediate approval. The bill would authorize cities and
counties to require the dedication of the land or the pay-
ment of fees or a combination of both for neighborhood park
and recreational purchases, as a condition to the approval
of a final subdivision map. On the advice of the City
Manager Mayor pro tern Stokes moved that a letter be sent to
the Governor urging passage of Assembly Bill 1150. Seconded
by Councilman Finch. Ward Crump Laid tfiat as Vice President
of the County Building Association, as a subdivider, and as
a home owner, he considers the bill a discriminatory tax on
the new home buyer requiring him to provide park and recrea-
tion facilities for the entire population. He urged the

3. Councilman Noel said that Pacifica is apparently opened for
traffic to Highway 9. He suggested a "Stop" sign or "Yield"
sign in order to control the traffic. The City Manager
stated, however, that the road is not actually open for traf-
fic at this time.
4. Mayor pro tem. questioned the method of payment for the
traffic signal at Stelling and Stevens Creek Blvd. and
whether or not it could be charged to some agency other than
the City. The City Manager answered that the college is not
actually the owner of any one of the four corners. However,
he said that he will meet with the attorney and engineers
this week and this question can be considered; it is up to
the property owners to arrange the assessment spread. Mr.
Stokes said that adjoining owners have in the past been re-
quired to contribute to the cost of signals and since policy
has been set on the subject, it is not fair to disregard
precedent at this point, not fair to the businessmen who have
paid for signals in the past. He said he feels a moral obli-
gation to maintain the same system. If the City is scheduled
to pay half the cost of the signal at Peppertree and Stelling
with the assessment district to pay the other half, how is
it that the assessment district is scheduled to make no
payment for the signal at Stelling and Stevens Creek Blvd.
The City Manager answered that the signal at Stelling and
Stevens Creek Blvd. is wholly within the jurisdiction of the
city while the Peppertree signal is at one entrance to the
college and the college owns the adjoining property which
is not the case at Stelling Road. Councilman Finch said
that the College is another public agency in contrast to a
private enterprise. He said it is important to the project
to proceed as is rather than burden the L.I.D. with any
additional costs. Referring to the experience in another
assessment district along Stevens Creek Blvd. east and west
of Blaney, he said that additional costs threatened the en-
tire improvement district.
