MINUTES OF THE PREVIOUS MEETINGS - July 19 & 26, 1965.

deleted and the original figure of $.03 per hundred is correct.
Moved by Councilman Stokes, seconded by Councilman Noel, that
the Minutes of July 19, 1965, be approved as corrected.
Motion carried, 5-0
Councilman Stokes stated that in the July 26th Minutes, page 4,
his statements in paragraph 7 seem to be out of context and
he would like that paragraph moved to the end of Item II.
On page 2, paragraph 6, the City Manager wanted to clarify
that Mr. Fowler is Chief Engineer of Santa Clara County Flood
Control and Water District. The last line of paragraph 6
should read: ".....has signed a contract for imported water."
The last 2 lines of the last paragraph should read as follows:
"......as opposed to 100-125 P.P.M. hardness for imported water
after treatment."
The City Manager wanted to clarify paragraph 1 of page 3 in
that he was asked what the cost would -.be for imported water
and he had said it would run $62 per 100 acre feet. Another
correction for the same page is the term "Cupertino Water
Service" should be changed to read: "Cupertino Water Depart-
ment." He added that paragraph 11, beginning with: "Mr.
Leonard said that....." should be deleted. The intent here was
that Mr. Leonard had suggested the City could make an investi-
gation as to whether or not they could get interim water ser-
vice from the City of Santa Clara.

spoke for themselves.
wv_O 1. M, L. Geisler: Application 16-V-65 for a,Variance to
allow a 6' fence along front of the house; 11094 La
Paloma Drive. Approved by Planning Commission
Resolution No. 284. 7/26/65.
Rev. Geisler was present to answer any questions. He told
the Council that the need for this 6' open fence is because
they have a retarded child who must be kept in the yard,
but could participate somewhat with other children through
the open fence. He assured the Council that the fence
would be attractive and an asset to the community.
Councilman Stokes said he has been out and looked at this
lot and feels the fence will not in any way obstruct the
view from cars. The Chief Building Inspector agreed
with this observation.
Moved by Councilman Stokes, seconded by Councilman Noel,

G. REPORT OF PLANNING DIRECTOR
�OC+� 1. The Director called attention to page 2 of the Planning
Commission Minutes of July 26th in regard to the appli-
cation with the County for the proposed billiard parlor
and slot -car racing establishment at Stevens Creek Blvd.
and Mann Drive. The Planning Commission went on record
as objecting to the C-2 zoning and the granting of the
Use Permit on the grounds that it would be incompatible
with nearby residential area.
Mayor Dempster asked the Council and the audience for
any comments. The Council elected to not make any
/ recommendations on this, on the basis that the Planning
V Commission usually takes care of this type of thing.
2. In regard to the Proud Homes application, the Planning
Commission was not against the zoning, but they were
against the layout of Portal Avenue and Vicksburg Drive
and the revised shape of the park.
Councilman Stokes wondered if it could have saved time
and effort if the Planning Commission had tabled the
matter and sent a directive to the City Council out-
lining these facts.. The Director said the Planning
Commission was planning to do this sort of thing but,
somehow, the motion came about and was voted upon.

X UNFINISHED BUSINESS
A. Since his architect had not shown up by this time, Mr. Chuck
requested his application 12-Z-65 be put over until the next
regular meeting of the City'Council.
MINUTE ORDER: Moved by Councilman Stokes, seconded by Council-
man Fitzgerald, at the request of the applicant,
to put application 12-Z-65 on the agenda for the
next regular City Council meeting.
Motion carried,' 5-0
B. Corporation Yard Discussion
Moved by Councilman Finch, seconded by Councilman Stokes,
to authorize the City Manager to continue development of
the current site.
The motion. and the second were withdrawn until the City
Manager returned to the meeting. He had stepped out of
the:iroom for a moment.
C. Councilman Stokes wondered, since San Jose and Santa Clara
have passed a cigarette tax, whether Cupertino should also
consider this. Mayor Dempster said this will probably be
discussed at the Inter=City Council meeting this Thursday
and he invited the Councilmen to attend.
D. Councilman Fitzgerald asked if we should contact Sunnyvale
in regard to the proposed joint meeting which was to have
been held in July. Mayor Dempster said action on this
matter is imminent, but he did not know to what extent.
ill C`z,i. c; E. Corporation Yard Discussion.
The City Manager said he has checked other properties that
are available and find they are either landlocked or the
prices are unreasonable. The P.G. & E. site was offered
for $30,000 and there is no ingress or egress.. He does
not feel this is a proper location for the corporation yard.
Councilman Fitzgerald asked the City Manager about the
Gagliasso site. The City Manager feels this location would
only compound any problems that we are experiencing with
the present location. He assured the Council that the
corporation yard will be properly landscaped and buffered.
Councilman Fitzgerald feels that the present site leaves
the door open to M-1 uses and specifically, a resubmittal
from the welding shop. Councilman Stokes said that, at
the time -that application was denied, the corporation yard
was already in the process of being developed.
Mayor Dempster, sa .d ,he is: not conv'inc.e.d that 'the only thing
to put up. against. freeways, is apar- ' . ts. They do not
`always create a good image for .Cupertino, with laundry
hanging on the clotheslines, trash cans, etc. On the
other hand, if the development of the corporation yard is
handled properly, the City can set'an,example of how we
want the property adjacent to the freeways to be handled.
The City Manager felt the Council will compel him to see to
it that the corporation yard is done in good taste.
Mr. I. H. Mittleman, 1050 University Drive, Menlo Park, re-
presenting the former Fisher property, opposed the location
of the corporation yard in that it will set a precedent in
the area. They plan a very nice..development about 300' from
the present site. He asked that the Council consider the
two following recommendations, if they choose to keep the
present site:
1. The Council pass some form of resolution to go on record
that professional rather than industrial is the intend-
ed use in this area.
2. At such time as Mary Avenue is opened, the City might
consider the moving of the corporation yard to some
other site. Mr. Mittleman said he understands that
the buildings are of the type that can be moved.
Councilman Stokes said it is his feeling that some future
Council could move the corporation yard to another location
with a majority vote, and the second suggestion by Mr.
Mittleman is not necessary. He said Cupertino needs a
corporation yard and the City Manager can find no other
suitable location. It is not his feeling that this is
definitely a permanent, unalterable site.
Moved by Councilman Finch, seconded by Councilman Stokes,
to authorize the City Manager to proceed with the construc-
tion of the corporation yard at the present site.
AYES: Councilmen Finch, Noel, Stokes, Dempster
NAYS: Councilman Fitzgerald
Motion carried, 4-1
Mr. Mittleman asked if the City Council plans to have a
study made on other, more desirable locations for a cor-
poration yard. The Planning Director said he has made an
interim report to the Planning Commission on this subject.

cation with ';he County 1"or the proposed l;illiard parlor
and slot-car racing estab1ist~ent at Stevens Creek Blvd.
and Mann Drive. The Planning Commisslon went on record
as objecting to the C-2 zoning and the granting of the
Use Permlt en 1he grounds that It wc¡;.ld be incompatible
with nearè7 residential area.
Mayor Dempster asked the Council ar~ the audience for
any cOCl:lents. '.:'he Councl1 elected to not make any
recommendations on thls, on the basls that '::he Planning
Commlsslon ,",sua1ly takes care 01" th1s type 01" thing.
2. In regard to the Proud Homes appllcatlon, the Planning
Commlss'..,n _s not agaiN!t the zoning, but they were
agalnst t}~ layout of Portal Avenue and Vlcksburg Drive
and the rev15ed shape of the park.

lining these tacts. The Directo¡' Aid the Planning
Co_lss1on vall planning to do thls sort of thing but,

Corpcration Yard ~c~aion.
The :1ty Manager sa~ he has checked other prc;>ertles that

not :'eel th1s Is a ;:roper location for the corporatlon yard.

handled proper17. the Clty can set an example ot how we
want the propert7 -J'IIc.-ent to the freeways to be hL."1dled.
