There vas SOlie discussion about the unrealistic speed limit on Wolte Road and Stevens Creek Blvd. _or Stokes felt this speed limit should be reviewed after the improvements are cOClpletad. nx NBIGHI!OR!fO()I) ÐOUNDAR]:ES AND NAMES 8l,025 Mayor Stokes suggested the Council, Planning Commiseion, Architectural and Site APProval COllJlllittee 800 the Parks and Recreation Commll1sion each appoint one person to a committee tor the purpose or studying neighborhood boundaries aOO names. He appointed Councilman Noel to this committee. The Planning I:1rector stated that the ~rposes for these neighborhood boundaries aOO names is to create safe streets, try to get cer~'in facilities within walking distance, and because there i8 a theory that people will be better citizens it' tbe7 can identity with the nei&!,>l)Or~j they live in. The neighborhoods 1'111 probablY be in nalf-mlle square grlds. Mayor Stokes asked the Commissioners and Cnmmltteemen if they had an)' specltlc qU'Jlltions of the City CO'I1'.cil. Comm. Bryson said he did not see a need for names of neighborhoods. He t'elt there WE're more urgent matters to take care of.

V SUGGESTED STAHDAJID CORDITIOHS POR SERVICE STATIONS 81,032 Mayor Stokes s~sted service station landscaping be required to be done b7 l1cenaed landscape architects. A further re- quirement to be that they be øprinklered and all spr!.nklera to be controlled b7 one aster "al~. This would tcnd to encourBgß the service statIon operator to maintain tt.e land- scaping.

Continuation or Vse I'81'1ñt contingent upor, the maintenance of the landscaping. (Items 7 and 8 above were added at this meeting.) Counc. Dempster asked the City Attorney what the þroper pro- cedure would be tor _1d1'l8 up. this set ot standard conditions. The City Attorne7 said he would review the Gas StaUon Ordinance to see, possibl7, it 1t could be handled as an amendment to it. The alterna~ive would be to pass a Resolution to this effect. -3- 'fI' 81.005 VII I ¡ t t· I Mayor Stokes directed the H-Control Committee to make up the list, have it ch~cked by the City Attorney, and sub::!1t 1t to the Plann1ng eo-1aalon 1'or review. !'he City Atto1'lwY eaid City Ordinances provide ror the re- vocation ot 0" Pe1'll1ts. *¥Or Stokea ..ked the City Manager to get a coW of Western ~ tor ~ fttch.

W ADDITIONAL PROCmJRE QUESTIONS Mayor Stokes would like a system devlsed whereby all past proceedings on a given applicant be c~mp1led and sent to the Ccuncilmen prior to their review of éhe case. The City Attorne,. suggested s control ledger. whic:' \lould have a time diary and a short entry on what each case \la;; about. The City Mana~er reco~nded a synop3iS of each case, in- cluding date and app.ication numbers. Comm. Prolich COtllDellted on a system u3ed by a nearby munici- pality whereby the Planning Commission, after their denial of an application and approval by the City Council s >~~ likely, would ma:n, a motion of intent to oerthrow the Planning Commis&ion decision. The applic~~ion then ~ocs back to the Planninß Commissicn to enable them to throw in any condition:! they see fit. It was thou';ht that this procedure would unnecessarily delay the applicant. Procedure by another nearby municipality is that the staff prepares a list of conditiona and the Planning Commission, in den71~ an ap~lication, attaches a list of conditions which they uould have imposed if they had approved the application. Mayor Stokes sUCCested the Planning Director verbally point out these conditions at the Planninc Commission meetin~s. Counc. Dempster suggested the ar;endas could have a \lider scope, and could include conditions for the applications. Plann1.!'Ig Coamlsslon Chairman Hirshon feels the Planning Commissioners ahould give their reasons ar~er the vote i8 taken. Others relt they shoul1 ~lve él1eir ::OM sons before the vote. -4- i'!:....,... , Tb- City Attorne1' Aid tlJe City Council could request a Minute Order troa tbe P1annlng CoCl!l1ssion contair.1ng the conditions the1 mu14 lave put on the appl1.:atlon H they had approved it. !be application would th~n come up again at the next eouncll _tinge , I ¡ YID ADJOORlIŒN'l' ....ting waD a43uu.tD84 at 9:!¡5 P.M. :; 1 ,~ Æ' '; .,y. ~ , .; ~ . î t ".,1'," f;. ::;<ii\~' , t,,~ ".,.
