Preliminary Application Comments
File No.: PRE2003-00049
1045 S. San Tomas Aquino Road
Dear Mr. Barnes:
Thank you for your submittal of a preliminary application for the construction of a new
single-family residence and granny unit located at 1045 S. San Tomas Aquino Road.
The subject property is presently zoned R-1-9 (Single Family Residential) and is
designated as Low Density Residential (less than 4.5 units per gross acre) on the City's
General Plan Land Use Map. This property is located in the San Tomas Neighborhood
and is subject to the development standards and design guidelines of the San Tomas Area
Neighborhood Plan (ST ANP).
The proposed project will require the following application approvals:
Site and Architectural Review Permit: The proposed single-family residence will require
approval of a Site and Architectural Review Permit and will be considered by the
Planning Commission through a public hearing process. Planning Division fees
associated with this application include the Site and Architectural Review Permit
application fee, which is currently $470 and the Park In Lieu fee, which is currently
$10,990.
Building Permit: The proposed granny unit will require approval of a Building Permit
and will need to meet all the development requirements of Section 21.61.030 of the
Campbell Municipal Code. A Park In Lieu fee will be required for the granny unit and is
currently $5,635.
The Planning Division completed the review of your pre-application and has the
following comments regarding your proposal:
Site Design & Architecture: New homes should be designed so that the home does not
present a walled off appearance from the street. This is accomplished by orienting entry
features such as front doors and porches to the street. However, the Zoning Code
requires that granny units not have an entrance that is visible from the street. The intent

of this requirement is to maintain the single-family home appearance from the street and
not have the appearance of a duplex. Therefore, the detached granny unit will need to be
moved to the rear part of the lot so that the design requirement of having the new home's
entrance face the street can be accomplished.
Staff finds that the proposed architecture of the home and granny unit is consistent with
the ST ANP design guidelines and fits in well with the surrounding neighborhood.
Trees: The development site appears to have a large, mature tree in the front yard area.
All trees on site must be indicated on your site plan and note the type, size, and note
whether such tree is proposed to be removed or preserved. Please know that no protected
trees on the site may be removed without first obtaining a Tree Removal Permit. The
City has a Tree Protection Ordinance that requires that any trees which are healthy and
can be accommodated on site with a proposed development be protected and preserved
(see enclosed). It is recommended that to the extent possible, you preserve the existing
trees on site that will serve to better integrate the new project with the rest of the
neighborhood. As part of your official application, a complete conceptual landscape plan
will be required. Additionally, all new development in the San Tomas Area shall be
required to provide a minimum of one tree per 2,000 square feet of net lot area.
Your application was distributed to the Public Works Department, Building Division,
Planning Division and the County Fire Department. In addition to the Planning
Division's comments contained in this letter, please find enclosed comments from the
Building Division, County Fire Department and Public Works Department. Please note
that these comments are meant to be preliminary. Conditions of approval from each
department will be developed when the formal application is submitted.
Thank you for the opportunity to review these plans. Please do not hesitate to contact me
at (408) 866-2193 or via email at stephaniew@cityofcampbell.com to schedule a meeting
to discuss these comments and the application process.
