Re: 1099 West Parr Avenue
Dear Mr. LaMar:
A copy of your letter dated June 19 to the City' Clerk, Planning Commission and City Council
has been forwarded to the Public Works Department for a response. After reviewing the San
Tomas Area Neighborhood Plan, Planning Commission Resolution No. 3337, the City of
Campbell Municipal Code, and related matters, I believe that many of the street improvements,
such as installation of the new streetlight and construction of pavement improvements for one-
half of the street, can be deferred until the work can be included with a street improvement
project for West Parr Avenue or until more properties develop in the immediate area. You or
your successor will then be required to install the improvements.
You will, however, be required to repair the damaged curb and gutter, install a new ADA
compliant driveway approach and relocate the water meter to behind the property line at this
time. Please contact Mr. Housley at 408-866-2158 who, along with Syed Wahidi, Public Works
Inspector, will assist you in obtaining an Encroachment Permit to install these improvements and
a Deferred Street Improvement Agreement form for the future street improvements.
Please notify the City Clerk as to whether or not you wish to withdraw your request to appeal the
Conditions of Approval for your development, and contact me at (408) 866-2159 if I can be of
further assistance. --

Dear Sir or Madam:
I am writing the letter of appeal, to the notification I received on June 12, 2001 dudng
a meeting with Harrold Howsley and Lynn Penoyer. The meeting was regarding
street improvements and street lighting in front of 1099 West Parr Ave.
At this meeting I was informed that I would not be allowed to obtain a permit for my
new house that I am building unless I complied with the demands of the Public
Works Department. I was told I would have to resurface the street in front of my
property, install a steel street light post, repair my existing sidewalk etc.. In which I
strongly disagree.
I look forward to meeting with the members of the Planning Commission and City
Council on this matter.
Sincerely,

ZONING DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF MARK & TYRA LAMAR.
FILE NO. PLN2001-31.
After notification and public hearing, as specified by law, and after presentation by the
Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed.
After due consideration of all evidence presented, the Planning Commission did find as follows
with respect to application PLN2001-31'
1. The proposed project is consistent with the R-l-10 (Single-Family Residential) Zoning
District, as required per the Zoning Ordinance.
The development of the property will result in an average density of 2.8 dwelling units per
gross acre, which is lower than the General Plan density of 3.5 dwelling units per gross acre
for this area.
The building is well designed and architecturally compatible with other homes in the
surrounding area and is consistent with the development standards for single family homes as
stated in the San Tomas Area Neighborhood Plan.
4. The proposed project is compatible with the adjacent community and residential uses.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
o
The proposed project will aid in the enhancement and the harmonious develOpment of the
immediate area. The establishment, maintenance, or operation of the use will not be
detrimental to the public health, safety, peace, morals, comfort or general welfare of persons
residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, or be detrimental or injurious
to property and improvements in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the City.
The subject site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed uses and the
surrounding uses in the area.
The subject site is adequately served by streets of sufficient capacity to carry the kind and
quantity of traffic such uses would generate.

Permit to allow the construction of a new two-story, single-family residence at 1099 W. Parr
Avenue. The project site is located on the north side of West Parr Avenue between Hack and
Lucot Avenues, on the border of Los Gatos and Campbell. Single-family residences abut the
property on the east, west, and north sides, and the Los Gatos Community Hospital lies across
West Pan' to the south.
The existing house on this lot has been upgraded and remodeled several times. The applicants'
initially intended to have the house demolished to make way for the new one, but they have
graciously agreed to allow the house to be donated to another Campbell resident who is working
with the City to replace a dilapidated house on her property.
ANALYSIS
General Plan Designation: The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Low
Density Residential (Less than 3.5 units per gross acre). The density of the proposed project site
is an average of 2.8 units per gross acre, which is less than allowed by the General Plan land use
designation.
Zoning Designation: The zoning designation for the project site is R-l-10 (Single-Family
Residential with a 10,000 square foot lot minimum). The proposed house meets the minimum
setbacks and maximum height restriction, lot coverage, building area, floor area ratio and parking
requirements of the R-1-10 Zoning District, where applicable.
Site Layout and Architecture: The proposed project includes the construction of a new two-story
residence. The proposed residence has incorporated design features as required by the San
Tomas Area Neighborhood Plan, including simple rectangular-shaped forms, simple gabled
rooflines, simple and shallow window fenestration, stucco siding, and composition shingle
roofing. Additional elements include divided window treatments, shutters, a trellis over the
driveway apron, and front and rear porches.
The proposed colors for the house include a medium brown base with off-white trim. The house
will have dark composition shingle roofing.
The house will have an attached one-car garage that is set back more than 65 feet from the front
property line. Additionally, the house has a detached structure that was built in 1946 when the
property was under the jurisdiction of Santa Clara County. This project does not proposed any
modifications to the structure, although Condition of Approval No. 4 requires the applicant to
file a deed restriction that the building will not be used as a secondary living unit or for a home-
based business. This building is currently used as a study, a workout room, and for storage.
Trees/Landscaping: There are several existing trees on site that will be retained, including a 30-
inch oak, a 24-inch pine, a 12-inch willow, and several smaller trees. The applicant is required to

have one tree per 2,000 square feet of net lot area on the property. In the event that any of the
smaller trees are lost during demolition or construction, new trees will be planted in their place.
Site and Architectural Review Committee: The Site and Architectural Review Committee
reviewed this application at its meeting of March 27, 2001. The Committee recommended that
they bay windows on the front elevation be changed to 45-degree windows and that the corbel
braces on the front elevation be removed. These recommendations were incorporated into the
revised plans, received on April 3, 2001.
