Hamilton Avenue LTD requires an annual review of qood faith compliance with the Aqreement by the Developer. As the Aqreement was approved on June 17,1986, a review is appropriate at this time. We are tentatively schedulinq the review for the City Council meetinq of July 7,1987. please send all materials supportinq your qood faith compliance with the Aqreement to the Planninq Director, Arthur Kee, by June 26,1987. Thank you. Sincerely, 7~~m'- A&¿~ Marcia Kaplan Community Development Manager MK/df cc: Kevin Duqqan Arthur Kee / - -~ .---- ---- Planning Department - review of interim use - 900 E. Hamilton Ave. - PC 84-06 (prometheus Development Co.) STAFF RECOMMENDATION That the city council note and file this report. STAFF DISCUSSION At its meetinq of April 7,1987, the City Council directed the Staff to review the current use of the Hamilton Mobile Home Park for the rental of space to owners and occupants of recreational vehicles (RV's) on a short-term basis. In particular, the Council was interested in ~etermininq if the current use conforms to the conditions set forth in the Development Agreement, and if there have been any problems reported by other City departments. The Hamilton Mobile Home Park provided spaces for a maximum of 136 mobile homes. All but three of the older mobile homes have been removed, and the tenants have been relocated to other areas. It is the Staff's understandin~1.that the three remaining coaches have been sold and will be relocated. At the present time, 49 spaces are beinq rented to owners of RV's. As the Council is aware, the developer (prometheus Development Co.) entered into a Development Agreement with the City. This agreement permits the short term rental of spaces to owners and occupants of recreational vehicles as an interim use of the property. The Development Agreement also stipulates that this interim use may be terminated by the City if a determination is made (using .reasonable discretion.) that the use of the property by recreational vehicles has become .undesirable.. Staff has visited the site on several occasions since the Council requested this report, and we are able to report the following: 1. Occupancy - 52 spaces are occupied, 3 of which are older mobile homes coaches awaiting relocation. 2. Garbage - at one time garbage dumpsters were filled to overflowing. The City's Community Developer Manager notified the developer, and the problem has been resolved. Continued..... I PREPARED BY planning Department AGENDA May 5,1987 PD 84-06 Status of Interim Use Page 2. 3. Sanitary Sewers - the sewer hookups used by the original mobile homes are still available for use by the RV owners. 4. Laundry Facilities - the laundry facilities (washes and dryers) that were available to the mobile home tenants are still available to the RV tenants. 5. Landscaping - the landscaping that was installed by the mobile home tenants is still in place, however, it is starting to show signs of neglect (ie. mowing, pruning, watering). 6. Signs - only one sign remains on the property. This sign was approved by the Planning Commission on October 28,1986, and advertises the proposed office/hotel development. All other signs have been removed. In addition, comments regarding the current use of the Hamilton Mobile Home Park were solicited from other City departments. Their responses are as follows: 1. Fire Department: No fire hazards reported. The Fire Department reports some difficulty in locating a specific unit, since the recreational vehicle sites are not numbered. ,~. 2. Public Works Department: Interior private roadways are substandard and deteriorated. The developer is required to maintain reasonable access for emergency vehicles. In addition, some vegetation on the site is growing over the public right-of-way. 3. Police Department: The Police Department has not experienced any problems related to the current use of the site for RV's. A concern has been expressed, however, that this use should not be continued for a definite period of time in that it has the potential to create problems for the Police Department. 4. Building Department: The current interim use is not in violation of any Building Codes.

Hamilton Ave. DISCUSSION At its meeting of June 18,1985, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1560 approving the application of Prometheus Development Co. for a Planned Development Permit to allow the construction of an office/hotel complex on -the project site. Condition 1 of the approval required the submittal of revised plans for the approval of the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission, at its meeting of February 24,1987, considered the submitted revised plans at length, and took action to approve the revised plans for Phase I, as redlined, subject to the conditions of approval under Ordinance No. 1560 as well as additional conditions (attached hereto). This approval was based on the finding that the conditions, as applied to Phase I, are to insure conformance with Ordinance No. 1560. It should be noted that the revised plans were reviewed by the Parks & Recreation Commission, the Los Gatos Creek and Streamside Committee, PG&E, and the Santa Clara Valley Water District. Comments from these jurisdictions were considered by the Planning Commission in its approval of the revised plans. Attached for the Council's information are the Planning Commission minutes from the meeting of February 24,1987. These minutes include Ordinance No. 1560, as well as the most recently imposed conditions.

I ~- LR.J The plans do not adequately incorporate the criteria presented in the meeting of February 11 with Prometheus and the City of Campbell. The location of the existing access ramp is incorrectly shown and the parking configuration has not been altered to allow for the unloading, loading, staging and fueling operations related to our recharge program. It is not feasible to perform these operations within the parking lot during off-hours as has been requested, nor would it be reasonable to request that the parking lot be emptied when access is needed. Enclosed are sketches showing two options which would solve our access needs. Both require relocating the proposed driveway approximately 60 feet to the east, to the location of the existing PG&E driveway. The first option would create the least impact on parking with the loss of approximately 3-4 additional parking spaces. Our transport would unload at the ramp area, continue through the site along the bike path and exit onto Campisi Drive. The second option would utilize the proposed loading/unloading ramp but would require shifting the center parking area towards the buildings. The construction of this spreader dam is an program which benefits the entire community. of access we are requesting may not be an office/ hotel complex; however, our proposal, while still accommodating both of our needs. important part of our recharge We understand that the type ideal compatible use with the option I, minimizes the impact There is an area adjacent to the PG&E tower where the creek bank has eroded.

The City Council alone has the authority to modify or further define the development conditions. Therefore, assuming it is your desire to proceed, we will forward your letter and our recommendations to the City Manager. He will, in turn, put the issue on a City Council aqenda (We anticipate April 21). You will thereby be given the opportunity to present your request directly to the City Council at one of its regular meetinqs. Our specific recommendations on your request will be as follows: l. Staff will support your first and second requests based on the following conditions: A. That all due diligence is exercised to secure approvals by Caltrans and Southern Pacific. B. That prior to issue of a buildinq permit for Phase I, an agreement for design and construction of these improvements is signed and a cash security is deposited with the City in the amount of the Engineer's Estimate for the subject improvements. C. That no permits for Phase 2 or 3 will be issued until the deferred improvements are actually in place. 2. Staff is strongly opposed to deletion of the sidewalk on the southwest side of the new street. The nature of the area, including both existing and proposed uses, and the configuration of the streets, Prometheus Development March 9,1987 Page 2. make this sidewalk necessary and important. Further, reducinq landscaping is not an acceptable action in response to providinq a sidewalk. Redesign of your parking facility would be the appropriate response to the need to provide both the sidewalk and adequate landscaping. with your concurrence, we will forward your letter and our comments to the City Manager.

I assume that it is in response to my earlier note. I find your letter amazingly presumptuous. ~,;. ~,~",:¡i¡;)~".;;'~;$:'"~'¡"~'" You have tv this date not given us an offer of any kind, at any price for our property which you are now threatening with the use of eminent domain. This I strongly feel is to your complete benefit. You are not in my opinion, negotia- ting in good faith and I find that extremely distressing. .' I would like to reiterate our position. It has always been that we are willing to sell the property to you. The use of an appraisor is an extremely difficult way to arrive at what we might consider a fair value. Direct negotiations are by far a more expedient route. As I mentioned in my earlier letter, you have still not even provid eè the elevations of the road grade and visual impact on our property for our review. It becomes very clear that you have no intention of doing so. But, in the interest of fair piny, I will be most happy to conds~er any realistic offer or will meet with you at any time or with any city officials you would like, in order to~onclude a satisfacto- rily negotiated settlement.

Thank you very much for your assistance in resolving our design with the Santa Clara Valley Water District. I believe your assistance in this matter has greatly helped the resolution and response from the Water District. As it appears the Planning Commission will be recommending the approval of our project to the City Council, we would like to request the City Council address three additional issues: 1. The modification of Condition of Approval requiring the completion of the Hamilton Avenue bridge widening prior to the issuance of a Certi ficate of Occupancy. We would be willing to consider conditions to assure the Ci ty this work will be completed in conjunction wi th our project; however, because Cal trans has control of this project, we may not be able to have the construction completed prior to the occupancy of the first phase of our project. 2. A modification of the staff requirement to provide a free-running right turn lane eastbound on Hamilton Ave. at the new street prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the first phase of the project. We have been working with Southern Pacific continuously throughout this project, and are now at a point where Southern Pacific can complete an easement agreement wi th the Ci ty providing for a widening of Hami 1 ton Ave., and the necessary eng ineering for the relocation of their equipment. However, it appears that Southern Pacific will not be able to complete this work prior to our completion of Phase I. ~ ~~~ nVl~ ~ FEB 2 3 1987 CITY OF' CAMPBELL PLANNING DEPARTMENT -- Mr. Arthur Kee February 19, 1987 Page Two 3. The requirement for a sidewalk on the southwest side of the new road from the proposed hotel entrance to Campisi. The staff has required the sidewalk because of City standards. Our position remains that the amount of pedestrian traffic in this area does not justify or warrant the loss of landscaping or the expense of thi s installation. We request the Ci ty Council provide a variance to the Ci ty standards for street improvements relating to the sidewalk in this area.

I sincerely appreciate the time you and your partner, Steve Conners, have put in attempting to negotiate a mutually acceptable price for access ri ghts across a porti on of your property in Campbell. Si nce our most recent meeting, I have again spoken with two appraisers who have both confirmed the approach we have taken to reach a value is both reasonable and is similar to how a court would attempt to settle the matter in a condemnation action. It is likewise the opinion of these experts that the price we have proposed is more than reasonable. In our past discussions, you have indicated your value of $600,000.00 is not subject to further negotiation. You also indicated you would not be willing to consider the value reached by an independent appraisal, the cost of which would be incurred by us. As a resul t, we appear to be substanti ally apart in our assessment of what is a reasonable value. As much as I di sl i ke bri ngi ng thi s matter before the Ci ty Counci 1 and i ncurri ng additional cost to settle the matter through eminent domain proceedings should the City consider this approach, we are nonetheless talking about a considerable sum of money which as I have indicated above, is well above what my advisors indicate is a reasonable fa.-: r-market va 1 ue.

PLANNING COMMISSION~G. JANUARY 27, 1987 ..J~ rt3 PD 84-06 Prometheus Development Application of Mr. Todd wright, on behalf of Prometheus Development CO., to consider revised plans for an approved office/hotel complex on property known as 900 E. Hamilton Aveò in a PD (Planned Development) Zoning District-. commissioner Dickson stated that he was of the opinion that this application should be renoticed for public hearing as a chanqe to the Planned Development Permit, rather than beinq considered this eveninq as a minor modification. Commissioner Dickson continued that the presented plans have changed siqnificantly since the original plans were presented, particularly in the reduction of landscapinq and chanqes in the street improvements-. Planninq Director Kee explained that these revised plans are presented as a condition of approval of the Planned Development Permit-. The landscapinq in relation to Hamilton Ave-. has been reduced, however, landscaping on other areas of the site have been increased-. The submitted plans show the circulation plan as required by the City, as well as incorporate conditions required under Ordinance 1560. City Attorney seliqmann determined that this application deals with the satisfying of conditions under Ordinance No. 1560, and is not considered as a chanqe to the Planned Development Permit-. Chairman Perrine determined that the item would be heard as presented on the aqenda-. MIS: Dickson, That this item be dealt with as a public hearinq because of the substantial nature of the chånqes-. Motion died for lack of a second. ---- The Commission recessed at 11:00 p.~., the meetinq reconvened at 11:10 p.m. -20- Commissioner Christ reported that this item was considered by the Site and Architectural. Review Committee. The appl.icant has agreed to meet the concerns expressed by Staff and other reviewing agencies-. However, at this point, the Santa Clara Vall.ey Water District would like to review the revised plans prior to makinq a commi ttment-. Therefore, in order for this item to be heard by the Commission this evening, the Commission has before it this evening two conditions which read as fol.lows: (1) Phase II and III of this project require the submittal of detailed elevations, site plans, and parking analysis to the Planning Department for approval of the Site and Architectural Review Committee and the Planning Commission prior to issuance of building permits for these portions of the project; and, (2) Applicant to submit revised plans of Phase I for the approval of the Site and Architectural Review Committee satisfyinq the requirements of the Santa Clara Valley Water District, the Campbell Parks & Recreation Commission, the Los Gatos Creek and Streamside Committee, and PG&E prior to issuance of a buildinq permit~ Commissioner Christ continued that if these two conditions are acceptable to the Planning Commission, the Site and Architectural Review Committee would recommend approval of this application this eveninq-. Mr. Kee presented some background on this project, noting that the conditions of approval under Ordinance No,. 1560 require that the site plan clearly indicate the project's phasing; the traffic consideration on the site plan are mitigated in the EIR, and, Staff recommended the elimination of parking spaces along Hamilton Ave. in order to provide additional landscaping at this prominent elevation. Staff has received comments from most of the reviewing jurisdictions; however, the requirements of the Santa Clara Valley Water District proved to be the most difficult,. The Water District may have a problem with the access of the heavy equipment needed in the creek area; and, although Staff feels these problems can be resolved, they would like to have the solutions represented on the plans-. Staff is, therefore, recommendinq a continuance to February 24, 1987-. Commissioner Olszewski noted that resolving the Water District's problems may require revisions to the parkinq layout and landscaping-. Commissioner Kasolas asked if Phase I included the bridqe over the creek joining Campisi Way. Engineering Manager Helms responded that when this project was approved, there were a number of off-site improvements required - one of these was a bridge over the creek. The Planned Development Permit approval requires that all the required improvements be in place prior to occupancy of the buildings in Phase Io Commissioner Kasolas stated that he has no objections to continuing this matter, although he is willing to spend the time necessary to expedite the issue in that this development represents a lot of jobs for the community. -21- Mr-. Todd Wright, Prometheus Development, stated that he is askinq for approval of the site plan subject to conditions indicated in the Staff Report and as indicated by the Site and Architectural Review committee. Mr,. Wright added that he has personally met with representatives from the Water District numerous times and is confident that the access problem can be resolved in a manner which will not create difficulty with the parking situation. Mr. Wright continued that the company would like to start construction at the beginning of this summer so that the building is closed in by winter-. The architects need to start on the working drawinqs as soon as possible. These working drawings have been held up pendinq the approval of the site plan-~ Commissioner Christ noted that redlininq of the presented plans would include the elimination of 9 parking spaces, an increase in the width of the bicycle path, and, an increase in the landscaping along Hamilton Ave. The applicant has aqreed to meet these conditions, however, these chanqes need to be put on the plans, and the plans needs to be reviewed by the Water District-. Commissioner Olszewski stated that he has every confidence that the various problems that remain can be solved to the satisfaction of all parties, however, in that the requirements of the Water District are still not known, it would seem prudent that the matter be continued for the review of the full Commission. This would enable the applicant to address all the issues discussed this evening and by reviewinq jurisdictions by presenting a complete package-~ Commissioner Dickson stated again that he thought the Commission was losing sight of the fact that this project is approved under a Planned Development Permit, which is an ordinance - therefore, the discussion is the changing of an ordinance~ Commissioner Dickson continued that, in his opinion, Condition #2 indicated by the Site Committee was out of order, and the Commission needs to see the revisions-. Addi tionally, there has been no communication from Cal-Trans, and this input is also needed,. Mr. Helms indicated that, at this point, Staff and the developer have worked with cal-Trans at length, and Staff feels that those issues are fairly well resolved-. Cal-Trans has asked for a final site plan, and Staff will be representing that the plan presented this evening is the final site plan, unless the Commission is not in agreement with this,.

Hamilton Ave. in a PD (Planned Development) Zoninq District. STAFF RECOMMENDATION 1. That the Planning Commission continue the consideration of these revised plans to its meeting of February 24,1987, so that the presented plans may be modified to incorporate the items discussed in the Staff Comment Sheet. STAFF DISCUSSION At its meeting of June 18,1985 the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1560 approving the applicant's proposal to construct an officelhotel complex on the project site. Condition 1 of that approval required the submittal of revised elevations and site plan for the Site and Architectural Review Committee and the Planninq Commission's approval. copy of the adopted ordinance is attached. A The applicant, at this time, is seeking approval of plans to allow the construction of Phase I of this development which would be one of the 6-story office buildings. The submitted plans present the parking, conceptual landscapinq, building elevations, and public improvements proposed in conjunction with Phase I. As the Commission may recall, the project included three phases of construction, with Phase II providing the hotel complex and related parking facilities, and Phase III involving the construction of the second office building and related parking. The submitted plans for Phase I propose the construction of a 6-story office building accommodating approximately 175,000 sq.ft. The building elevations indicate the construction of an office buildinq with a stepped elevation towards the Hamilton Ave~~ frontage. Buildinq wall materials are shown as an off-white glass fiber reinforced concrete panel with a sculptered horizontal band treatment~ A medium qrey reflective glass is shown as a window element on the building. The building entry is accentuated by a variation in window treatment. PD 84-06 -2- January 27,1987 The revised plan indicates the provision of conceptual landscape plans for the project. These plans indicate details of the plaza area between and around the office buildings and provision of a bike path along the Los Gatos Creek frontage. The width of the proposed landscaping areas along the street frontages of this project has been substantially reduced from the original approval. This reduction has been required to accommodate standard street improvements and to accommodate the traffic mitigation measures identified in the Environmental Impact Report prepared for this project~ Parking facilities for Phase I of this project are provided at-grade between the office building and Hamil ton Ave-~ and in a subterranean parking garage under and adjacent to the proposed buildinq. The plans indicate the provision of 701 parking spaces (349 standard, 344 compact, and 8 handicapped). The provided parking results in a parking ratio of 1:250 for the proposed office use~ Public improvements for this project include the provision of a new public street throuqh the project, which connects Hamilton Ave. to Campisi way. These improvements require realiqninq the Hiqhway 17 off-ramp and constructing a new bridge over Los Gatos Creek. A number of other off-site improvements were also required to mitigate traffic impacts as conditions of this project approval. The applicant, at this time, has submitted a plan which accommodates these street improvements, and an alternative plan which provides less than a standard (alternative) public street~ The issue of less than standard street improvements will require City Council approval. The Planning Commission may wish to forward a recommendation regarding this issue, if it considers such action appropriate. The Architectural Advisor has reviewed the project and buildinq design, and feels that some areas of the project need further study. He comments that the transition between the building entry and the remainder of the building seems awkward and that design details of on-site improvements (retaining walls, pavement materials, liqhting and landscaping details) are lacking. He additionally expresses concern regarding the articulation of the window treatment and shadowing. These concerns can be addressed with the submittal of more detailed plans in the future to be reviewed at the Site and Architectural Review Committee level. The revised plans were referred to PG&E, Santa Clara Valley Water District, the Los Gatos Creek Committee, and the Campbell Parks & Recreation Commission for their review and comment-. As of this writinq, the only written responses have been from the Parks and Recreation Commission and Santa Clara Valley Water District; These comments are attached for the Commission's review. PD 84-06 -3- January 27,1987 As part of this submittal, the applicant has submitted plans for Phases II and III of this project. staff is recommending that the detailed plans for these subsequent Phases be reviewed and approved at a later date. The applicant's submittal indicates a number of changes and refinements from the plans oriqinally submitted to the Planninq Commission. A discussion of these changes follows: L Building Design and Elevations. The original building elevations indicated the office building mass to step down towards the Hamilton Ave. frontage and the Los Gatos Creek exposure~ The revised plan at this time indicates that the stepped portion of the southerly building would be stepped towards the office plaza between the two office buildings rather than towards Los Gatos Creek. The treatment and color of the proposed office building has been changed from a wall panel with a green color accent band to a sculptured wall panel and the window treatment has changed from a medium reflective qlass (green tint) to a medium reflective qlass (grey tint)~ The window mullions have changed from a green color to a metalic beige. 2-. Landscaping. The presented site plan incorporates a standard public street through the project. To accommodate the required traffic capacities setforth in the Environmental Impact Report and the standard street improvements, a substantial reduction in the amount of on-site landscaping has been required. Phase III additionally indicates an enlarqement of the at-qrade parking area south of the second office buildinq~ which siqnificantly reduces the green belt area shown on the original plans. Generally speaking, the width of the landscape areas along the public street frontages and between Los Gatos Creek and proposed parking areas have been decreased'. 3. The revised plans do not propose to extend the bicycle trail along the southern portion of the project~ The original conceptual plan indicated landscaping and a bicycle path in this portion of the project~ staff is recommending that the planning Commission continue the consideration of these plans so that the applicant can incorporate the recommendations of the Parks & Recreation Commission and the Santa Clara Valley Water District into the presented plans,. PD 84-06 -4- January 27,1987 Additionally, Staff would recommend that the applicant pursue the fo11owing modifications: 1. Eliminating the parallel parking spaces shown along the Hamilton Ave. frontaqe and increasinq the landscapinq in this area. 2. Provide a secondary exit/extrance to the parking garage in Phase Ii and 3. Investigate the use of a tinted vision qlass material on the ground floor of the office buildinqs. * * * CONDITIONS OF APPRûvAL: PD 84-06 APPLICANT: PROMETHEUS DEVELOPMENT CO. SITE ADDRESS: 900 E.

Dear Arthur: During our work with Caltrans on the widening of Hamilton Avenue at Highway 17, we have identified a scheduling conflict between the completion of our project and the completion of construction of the widening of Hamilton Avenue. Caltrans will be administering the construction of the Hamilton Avenue widening at Highway 17, and may not have the construction completed at the same time as we complete construction of the first phase of our off ice proj ect. We ant ic ipate completing construct ion of our first office building in May, 1988, but the completion of the widening of Hamil ton Avenue may not be complete until August, 1988. Therefore, we respectfully request the conditions of approval be adjusted to allow for the granting of the occupancy permit on Building I prior to the completion of construction of the widening of Hamilton Avenue, provided that we have made all diligent efforts with Caltrans to get the bridge widening completed. The modifications of Hamilton Avenue across the Southern Pacific Railroad may not be completed by the time construction is completed on Phase I of our project. We have provided all necessary information to Southern Pacific to allow them to process the documents for an easement to widen Hamilton Avenue. However, the processing time may be longer than our schedule allows. Our prior correspondence on this matter is attached along with the City staff response. I would appreciate it if this issue could be included in the presentation to the Planning Commission. --- -- Mr. Arthur Kee January 21, 1987 Page Two If there are any questions or further clarifications required on this matter, please feel free to give me a call.

We have a number of concerns regarding the joint use of our proposed right of way. These concerns have been presented to the Prometheus Development Company and we have agreed in principal to a number of changes to the original plans, however, the original plans have not yet been altered to reflect the changes. Most of our concerns were stated in our letter of October 31, 1986 to Mr. Todd Wright of Prometheus, a copy of which was sent to your office. Some modifications will be made with respect to our access to the seasonal dam and the landscaping which differ from statements made in our previous letter. Again, we are interested in maintaining our access to the seasonal dam and to the top of bank and that this access is not impeded by the installation of the bike path, landscaping and parking areas. We have requested that right of way along the top of the bank be dedicated to the District. Prometheus has indicated that they would like this to be as an easement. If there is to be a joint use of this property with the public, ie the bike path, fee title should be transferred to the District or to the City of Campbell with the District retaining as easement. We have also requested that an area be provided below the bridge on the west bank for a District access road. This would also be beneficial to the City if the bike path is to continue on the west bank.

It appears the Water District has taken a very different approach to our project than previously discussed. -. The intent of our site plan is to make use of the natura! features of the ~os Gatos Creek. The landscaping and bike path at the top of the creek bank have always been shown and are considered a very important feature of the project by both the City of Campbell and us. It is our intent to have landscaping and a bike path at the top of the creek bank for pubUc use. PresentJy, the City of Ca,mpbe1J is developing a bike path along the entire. length of the ~os Gatos Creek at the edge of the creek bank and would like our project to connect to that City resource. A joint use of the land along consistent use of our property. allow joint use of a bike-path inconsistent with the policy that length of the creek in the City of the creek seems reasonable and For the Water District to not and Water District access is has been established along the Campbell. Your request for access from Hamilton Avenue does not appear to us to be the msot effective access to the seasonal check dam.

As I have previously discussed with members of the City Council, a partial application for the development of 900 East Hamilton Avenue by the Prometheus Development Company has been submitted. A meeting was held involving myself, Planning staff, Public Works staff, Tom Fleischli and the E.I.R. traffic consultant on Tuesday, October 23. At that meeting Mr. Fleischli was informed of the additional information necessary in order to proceed with the proposed application. Among the information needed by the Planning Department are "elevations" for the hotel development and a listing of building materials for all of the proposed buildings. In addition, the draft E.I.R. submitted by Ruth and Going and the traffic study submitted by Barton-Aschman was discussed in detail. The traffic information is far from complete at this time, and the necessary additional analysis will clearly take several weeks. While Mr. Fleischli initially hoped that we could submit the draft E.I.R. to the State for their 4S-day review period (required prior to the holding of any City public hearings) by the end of this week in order to allow for this project to be considered at the December 11 Planning Commission meeting, this clearly cannot be accomplished. The submittal of an E.I.R. to the State by the City is a statement on the City's behalf that the E.I.R. is complete and provides all the necessary information to evaluate a proposed project. It is clear that the current amount of information concern- ing traffic impact is not sufficient to meet this standard. Without this information, the staff will not be in a position to evaluate whether the proposed freeway offramp and intersection with Hamilton Avenue is workable. It is clear that a public hearing on this proposed development will not be held at the Planning Commission level until after the first of the year. me if you have further questions on this matter.

AUGUST 28, 1984 Mr. Kee mted that a letter has been received from Mr. Tom Fleischli of Prometheus Developœnt Co. requesting a st1.Xly session to present al terna- tive conceptual site plans for 920 E. fàmil ton Avenue (attached hereto). Mr. F1eischli noted that he would have some very conceptual plans which could be viewed Wednesday, August 29, in Rm. 80 of the CDIIIIltmity Center. (' CDJTI1lÎssioner Kaso1as stated that he felt ¡'that usually the Cormnission would have new plans for a development, if it has been turned down previously. He continued that the C'onmission' s job was to review plans for confonnance with the General Plan. He asked if the C'Amnission might not be putting itself in the position of having one study session after another when someone is tmhappy with a decision along the line. Conmissioner Kasolas continued that it is difficult to know why the voters voted against the project-- height, traffic, density. The referendum didn't specify the reasons, only the outcome. To what extent should the ConInission get involved in designing a building. Additionally, the study session should be properly noticed. r Commissioner Christ stated that because the original proposal was denied tmder the referendum, he felt the Cœmnission has a responsibility to the cormnmity to see that another similar project is not proposed. He continued that dialogue with the developer and the residents is necessary to deter- mine a proper use for this site, and he felt it was proper for the Conmis- sion to work with the developer and conmnmity to resolve concerns. The study session provides the opportmity to input as to what the cormnmity wants. Chainnan Dickson stated that he is opposed to another study session on this issue, and he felt that the developer should have adequate input from the last study session, as well as getting additional feedback from the preview of conceptual plans on August 29. Commissioner Fairbanks noted her difficulty with attending so many meetings; but stated that she is in favor of this approach in that she appreciated be- ing able to look at some concepts before final presentations are made. The Commission took action (vote of 4 -1-1, with Chairman Dickson voting "no If) to schedule a Study Session for Thursday, September 13, 1984 at 7: 30 p.m. It was the consensus of the Conmission that Staff would find a location and notify interested persons.

CALIJI'ORNIA 95014-2575 (~08) ~~6-0157 August 23, 1984- HAND DELIVERED The Honorable DuWayne Dickson Chairman Planning Commission City of Campbell 75 No. Central Avenue Campbell, CA 95008 RE: HAMILTON PARK Dear DuWayne: I would again like to thank you and other members of the Planning Commission for the tremendous amount of time spent considering the many planning issues involved in development of the Hamilton Mobile Home Park site. In my view, the key to developing a con census plan for the property requires active involvement by the Planning Commission and members of the community early on in the planning process. It is my sincere hope that with this involvement, the final plan for the property will be acceptable to all parties. In this regard, I respectfully request the opportunity to present alternative conceptual site plans to the Planning Commission during a study session to be held at your earliest convenience. A t this study session, conceptual site plans would be presented for your preliminary comments. Based on this feedback, we could proceed with the refined design of a preferred site plan or plans for further review. Through this process, the ultimate plan for the property will respond to the extent possible to the concerns of the Planning Commission and members of the community. I sincerely appreciate the effort you and members of the Planning Commission have made to assist us in developing a successful plan for the property, and I believe through continued dialogue and study we will be successful in achieving that end. Sincerely, Thomas E. Fleischli Project Manager ~ ~\~~~:~ ~ TEF:1b CITY OF CAMPBELL PLANNING DEPARTMENT -.. , MEMORANDUM CITY OF CAMPBELL To: City Council Planning Commission Date: August 15, 1984 From' City Manager Subject: Date: August 20, 1984 Study Session on Development of Time: 7:30 p.m. Hamilton Mobile Home Park Place: Campbell Senior Citizen Center -------------------------------------_WD@~~h~k~~x~-------- - The primary purpose of this study session is to hear information on and discuss aspects of a development on the Hamilton Mobile Home Park site. Ideally, this discussion would result in the identification of development parameters which could be considered by developers who wish to propose a project on the site. To assist the Council and Commission in achieving that objective staff has developed presentations in five categories: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Traffic Mitigation Land Use Alternatives Project Aesthetics Relocation Fiscal Impact -- We propose that staff lead off with a presentation on each of the category subjects. The presentations will layout objective facts which are pertinent to any development which may ultimately be approved for the site. During the staff presentation and immediately following it, clarifying questions would be welcomed. Following each staff presentation the Council and Commission may wish to hear public comment on the specific subject being discussed. Comments will be recorded on chart paper by members of the Planning Staff. Next, the Council and Commission members should express their individual points of view on the subject under discussion. Thes~ comments, in summary form, will also be recorded on the chart paper for visual reference during the meeting, and for subsequent analysis and summarization by the staff. Our overall objective will be to arrive at a consensus conclusion in each of the categories, and from that, to develop a set of written parameters for the ultimate PD zoning ordinance on the Hamilton Mobile Home Park site. If no consensus conclusion is reached, the discussion should allow the identification of alternatives which have support among Commissioners and Council members. Study Session on Development of Hamilton Mobile Home Park Page 2 A summary of the meeting, including areas of consensus and alternatives, will be developed by staff for Council review at a regular meeting in the near future, September 4 or September 18. To assist Council and Commission members in evaluating the various alterna- tives by category, a comment sheet is attached. While some may feel that this Study Session format is more rigid than is necessary, I believe we must use a more disciplined approach because of the complexity of the issue. A second subject which has been scheduled for discussion is a proposed change to the City's current environmental impact reporting procedure, specifically as it pertains to the initial assessment and the declaration of no significant impact (Negative Declaration). This subject will be presented if time allows at the end of the Study Session. Respectfully submitted, E:I:! EGS: lp cc: Planning Department Public Works Department Assistant City Manager ,-- MEMORANDUM From: City Attorney To: Planning Commission and Staff Referendum and New Plans Re: I Background - In the City's last election, Campbell's citizens voted to prevent development of what was commonly known as the Prometheus Project. The City now requests guidelines for de- termining whether new developments are or are not proscribed by the referendum. II Issue How must a new project differ from the pre-referendum project in order to be outside of the referendum's bar? III Discussion The California Election Code forbids a legislative body from reenacting an ordinance that has been defeated by a referen- dum for the period of one year. Cal.Elec.Code §4055. In order to determine whether or not a new ordinance is actually the same as the defeated one, the courts apply the following test: Unless the new measure is "essentially different" from the rejected provision and is enacted "not in bad faith, and not with intent to evade the effect of the referendum petition," it is invalid. Assembly of the State of California v. Deukmejian (1982) 30 Cal.3d 638, 678; Reaganv. City of Sausalito (1962) 210 Ca1. App. 618, 630-631; Martin v. Smith (1959) 176 Cal.App.2d 115, 118; Gilbert v. Ashley, (1949) 93 Ca1.App.2d 414, 415-416; In re Stratham (1920) 45 Ca1.App.436, 439-440. This test is, unfortunately, rather vague, and not very easy to apply in specific instances. To the present date, only two published cases have attempted to apply the "essentially different" test to a land use referendum. Both of these cases are summarized below for illustration: from the language of the ordinance, as there can be no intent in a statute not expressed in its words, and there can be no intent upon the part of the framers of such a statute which does not find expression in their words. II Id., pp. 630-631. Thus, whereas a subsequent ordinance can deal with the same broad subject matter of its pre-referendum counterpart, the propriety of the actual ordinance itself turns on its specific terms. CONCLUSION - The current case law provides little assistance in determining what amounts to an essentially different plan. While it seems clear that the addition of supplemental terms to an otherwise unchanged plan is inadequate, there appear to be no precise guidelines governing the extent of the necessary changes to a pre-referendum proposal. Instead, given the virtually endless~---_. myriad of possible changes, each proposal must be examined on a case by case basis. ,- 3 ITEM COMt>1ENTS UNACCEPTABLE CONDITIONS COMMENTS -~- .

Chairman Dickson noted that he had also received a memo from the Planning Director indicating the possible discussion topics for said study Session which were suggested to Mr. Kee in a meeting with Mr. Fleischli, Mr. Clarke, and several others. In response to an inquiry, Chairman Dickson noted that it was his intention to forward this information to the City Council and invite their attendance at this Study Session. -12- Commissioner Howard suggested that, in light of the controversial subjects to be discussed, he would like to see the Council in attendance for the purpose of guidance on where the City is heading on the development of the Halìl'Î-lton Avenue Mobile Home Park site. Mr. Kee indicated that there will be no action taken at the Study Session, however, many ideas may be presented for consideration.
