I enjoyed showing you and Stephanie Willsey the property at 63 Shelley Avenue today.
am pleased with the final product and am sure it will be an integral part of the
surrounding neighborhood.
As I mentioned, the rain has caused some delays to the final completion of the
improvements of the project. However, the property is more than inhabitable, and the
buyers are eager to close and move in this weekend of the 11th.
Specific to your request, I am writing to assure you and the City of Campbell that the
project will be completed as soon as weather permits. Our anticipation is that the final
paving of the road, and the sidewalk, curb and gutter will be started next week, if the
weather people are correct, and should be complete by the following week.
Landscaping will begin after the aforementioned phase, and should take no longer than 2
to 3 weeks to complete.
The granting of my request for occupancy of the Jensen's (Nancy and Gordon) is very
appreciated. I also understand that there will be no final approvals for 61 Shelley Avenue
until the completion of the aforementioned improvements.
Gordon Jensen's signature is part of this communication to give assurance that he agrees
with having the landscaping of his property completed as well.
Thank you again for your time and understanding. As always it is a pleasure working
with your department and the City of Campbell.
Sincerely,
Edward A. Costa

Dear Geoff.'
Thank you for the time you spent with me yesterday to review the revised plans
submitted by my Architect, Joe Hernandez, for the project located at 61 and 63 Shelley
Avenue. I believe the project is both Architecturally and Esthetically pleasing for the
City of Campbell and the surrounding neighbors. Your approval will now let us move
forward in an expedient manner.
Since I have taken over the project and appointed a new General Contractor, the project
has been moving along on schedule, and our goal is to have minimal effect on the
neighbors privacy, as I know construction is never without privacy interruptions. I have
personally communicated with many of the neighbors and assured them we will finish the
project as soon as possible to allow life to return to normal.
Per our conversation I will be submitting a comprehensive landscape and hardscape plan
for your review. I anticipate having this done within the next 2-3 weeks. I believe our
understanding is mutual in regards to the privacy of all properties, and I know the City
will be pleased with the results.
Again, it is a pleasure working with the City of Campbell and yourself, and I will
continue to embrace the philosophy of the community.
Sincerely,
Edward ~

Dear Mr. Costa:

Unit B-2000-1473
March 7, 2002
It was brought to my attention, March 7, 2002, that certain changes were made to both Units
without prior approval from Building or Planning Department. I am revising plans to reflect said
changes for review and approval of Building and Planning Department. A summary of the
changes made are as follows:
~./_A. The garage door configuration was changed from three to two doors. I previously
processed a change for the new holdowns and overhead beam configuration.
o~. Two fireplaces were deleted as shown in the original plans. The only remaining fireplace
mtnis in the living room facing the front door.
3. The garage man door to the interior entry court was deleted along with the walkway to it.
\Z~ 1. The second floor master bedroom balcony canopy roof was converted from a gable to a
hip roof and extended to cover the full balcony.
~ C~2. A 16" roof overhang was added to the entire roof perimeter including the garage. o~--.~d-3' The master bedroom fireplace was deleted.
[~helandingadjacentincluc~mglOWera c~olumn.roof to the rear door from the kitchen was extended to cover the door
5. The front entry canopy and living room exterior walls were raised approximately 24" to
slope the upper roof continuously down over the living room space. The front door was
modified to have a transom window.
Q6. The Builder wishes to delete the trellis between the front second floor balcony and the
garage as reflected on the revised plans.
7. The front gable canopy over the living room front window was raised approximately 24"
with the living room roof.
The plans also reflect the structural changes approved to date so that these plans reflect the as-
built condition of the structures at this time.
An observation that needs to be corrected, on Unit B garage roofing tiles are extended beyond
the edge too far to allow rainwater to drain into the gutters.

Dear Ms. Saeedi,
This letter is to follow-up on our meeting of June 6th to see if you had a chance to think about
any of the items we discussed regarding the project at 61 Shelley Ave. At the meeting I made
the offer to require higher fencing and/or additional landscaping for the part of the project along
your property line and that of your neighbors if you felt that would help address some of the
concerns about privacy.
I am still happy to make this request of the developer, but I will not do so unless you think it
would be helpful.
Please phone Kristi Bascom at (408) 866-2142 to let her know your thoughts on this matter and
she will follow through with the request.

DISCUSSION
Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is requesting approval of a Site and Architectural Review
Permit to allow the construction of two new two-story, single-family residences at 61 Shelley
Avenue. The project site is located on the north side of Shelley Avenue between White Oaks
Drive and Bascom Avenue. The site is already subdivided into two flag lot parcels with a 14-
foot wide access road. It is due to the limited access road width that only two units are allowed
on these properties instead of multiple units as the zoning district allows.
ANALYSIS
General Plan Designation: The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Low to
Medium Density Residential (6-13 units per gross acre). The density of the proposed project site
is an average of 4 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-M-S (Multi-Family
Residential). The proposed project is consistent with the zoning designation and meets the
minimum setbacks, height restriction, lot coverage, building area, floor area ratio and parking
requirements of the R-M-S Zoning District, where applicable.
Site Layout and Architecture: The proposed project includes the development of two, two-story
residences. Lot A has an attached three-car garage and Lot B has a detached three-car garage.
The site configuration allows the two properties to share an entrance access road and singular
driveway leading to the two garage entrances.
Staff Report - Planning Commission Meeting of January 23, 2001
PLN2000~I57 - 61 Shelley Ave
Page 3 of 3
The two proposed residences feature a neo-Mediterranean design with hip and gable roofs,
stucco siding, and concrete tile roofing. Additional elements include divided window treatments,
porches and decks and arched windows on the front elevations.
The proposed colors for the Home A include a light brown base with off-white trim. The
proposed colors for the Home B include a light tan base also with off-white trim. Both houses
will have dark brick colored tile roofing.
Trees/Landscaping: There are no existing trees on site. Condition of Approval #7 requires a
conceptual landscape plan to be submitted to and approved by the Community Development
Director.
Site and Architectural Review Committee: The Site and Architectural Review Committee
reviewed this application at its meeting of January 9, 2001, and is supportive of the submitted
plan.

Site and Architecture Permit for two new single family homes at 61 Shelley Avenue
(PLN2000-157)
Dear ]Viz'. Hemandez:
Thank you very much for meeting with us today regarding the proposal for two homes on Shelley. I
appreciate you taking the time to discuss the floor plans and elevations for the houses. We would
like to see the plans refined to include more single-story elements and to reduce the mass of the
homes in relation to the site. In summary, the following changes were recommended:
Parcel A:
1. Reduce the size of the second-story deck by approximately five feet on the north and west
elevations and add a roof element to reduce the appearance of building height. Add a
wrought-iron railing along the south elevation to reduce massing.
2. Reduce the size of the windows above the entry door and design windows that are more in
scale with the size of the area and illustrate the depth of the entry porch area.
3. Note the various window depths on the elevations.
Parcel B:
1. Consider porch off formal dining room on west elevation. This will serve to balance the
balcony above.
2. Consider lowering the height of the roof and ceiling in the area open to the living room
below to 1 ~A stories or less. Add small windows to light the interior volume area.
3. Reduce the size of the arched windows in the roof gables and design windows that are
more in scale with the size of the gabled area.
4. Add a breezeway and/or trellis feature between the house and the detached garage.
5. Note the various window depths on the elevations.
6. Show decorative tile work at the base of the exterior elevations to add architectural
interest.

Parcels A and B:
1. Show conceptual landscape plans for the two sites.
2. Change height of good-neighbor fence to 6 feet.
3. Show decorative paving and/or tile usage in driveway areas.
Thanks again for your time this afternoon and for making these changes to the plans. Once we
receive the revised plans we can schedule your application for the Site and Architectural Review
Committee and Planning Commission.

Re: Site and Architecture Permit for two new single-family homes at 61 Shelley Avenue
PLN2000-157
Dear Ms Bascom,
This is in response to your letter dated November 13, 2000, providing the following information to
complete our subject application:
1) Site Plan (A- 1): the landscape buffer has been shown to match adjacent buffer
landscaping.
2) Site Plan (A-1): indicates distance to nearest adjacent residential structure as permitted by
the scale of the drawing. The setbacks are clearly identifiable as shown on Sheet T-1.
3) Site Plan (A-l): the existing power pole has been shown at the entrance driveway.
4) The two west elevations are submitted in color, as requested.
5) Plate heights have been indicated on all elevations and, where critical, we have shown the
relationship to the property line, Sheet A-5, A-6 and A-7.
6) Clarification Plan B:
a. Elevation Plan B Garage: has been shown on Sheet A-6.
b. Chimney to the West is now shown on the side of North Elevation, Sheet A-7.
c. Chimney heights have been clarified and made consistent throughout, Sheet A-7.
d. The North Elevation now shows the missing balcony, Sheet A-7.
e. The West Elevation now shows the missing bay window, Sheet A-7.
7) Sample of roof material is submitted herewith as requested.
8) Photos of shnilar homes are being submitted herewith, as requested.
Addressing the Planning Staff preliminary concerns:
1) The second story portion of Plan A which was 5'-0" l~om the property line has been
deleted. All two-story portions of Plan A as indicated on Sheet A-5 and A-6 are 10'-0"
fi:om the property line, The Plan A second-story wall plate height is 18'-4", also clarified
in the drawings. There is a one-story portion of Plan A that is 5'-0" from the property line.
2) Plan A second-story terrace is 19'-9" from the West property line and the nearest adjacent
structure is 18'-0" further away from the property line. In order to mitigate the site line
issue, we have raised the West rail-wall to 5'-0" above the deck.
3) We have placed the gate at the interior end ofthe 14'-0" wide portion ofparcel A.
4) The Owner has opted for a good neighbor perimeter fence. See Sheet T- 1.

Re:
Site and Architecture Permit for two new single family homes at 61 Shelley Avenue
(PLN2000-157)
Dear Mr. Hemandez:
The Community Development Department has reviewed the above-referenced application, received
October 18, 2000, for the development of two single-family homes. At this time, the application is
deemed incomplete. In order to provide a thorough site and architectural analysis, please provide the
following information:
1) On the Site Plan, show the location of landscaping buffers near property lines.
2) On the Site Plan, indicate the setbacks from the property lines for the buildings on adjacent structures.
3) On the Site Plan, show the existing power pole in the right-of-way at the driveway entrance.
4) Submit two sets of reduced color elevations and/or perspective drawings. Since showing the property
from the street view would not be beneficial, please show the property from the west elevation.
5) On the elevations, indicate the plate height of walls facing side and rear property lines. Especially
important is the height of the east-facing wall on Plan A, as that wall height will determine the setback
requirement from the property line.
6) On the elevations for Plan B, please make some clarifications:
Show the detached garage,
Show the chimneys on the North Elevation,
Clarify the heights of the chimneys, as they are not consistent between the various elevations,
The upper floor balcony on the West Elevation and floor plan is not shown on the North Elevation, and
The bay window shown on the North Elevation is not shown on the West Elevation.
7) Provide a sample of the roof materials and color in addition to the samples we already have for the body
and trim colors.
8) Staff is concerned about the color, style, scale, and massing of the proposed homes as they relate to
adjacent properties. If the applicant could provide photos of existing homes that are similar to those
proposed at this site, perhaps it would be easier to envision the final product.
Given the current plans, Planning Staff has some preliminary concerns with the site plan which we would
like to see addressed:
1)
The rear yard setback for Parcel A is shown as 5 feet. However, the height of the building wall adjacent
to the property line in this location is estimated to be about 21 feet (please confirm on elevation). If this
is the case, a 10'6" setback will be required.

............................ Page 2 of 2
2) On Plan A} consider if the large second-story terrace would be intrusive to the neighbor's privacy, and
what could be done to minimize the intrusion.
3) Consider placing the gate further down the driveway and closer to the houses in order to minimize the
visual impact on adjacent properties.
4) Staff supports the construction of a fence which is more typical of a single-family development.
Consider replacing the proposed stucco perimeter fence with a wood fence, which would also soften the
visual impact on adjacent properties.
Additionally, the City's Architectural Advisor has several concerns regarding the building designs and their
relationship to the neighborhood. Overall, he was questioning whether or not buildings of this size and mass
were appropriate for this site and whether or not the applicant could reconsider the overall size and site
relationship.
Given that many of the concerns raised have to do with the incompatibility of the size and design of the
houses to the adjacent properties, we encourage you to work with the surrounding neighbors and to share
with them your plans for the property. If the neighbors do not have reservations about the houses, then Staff
is likely to support the application as well, and you will not be surprised at the Planning Commission public
hearing by neighbors who object.
Please feel free to phone me at (408) 866-2142 if you have any questions regarding these issues. Once
the requested items have been received, we can continue with the processing of your application.
Sincerely,
Kristi Bascom
