DISCUSSION
Applicant's Proposal: The applicants are requesting approval of two separate applications, a Site
and Architectural Review Permit (S 98-17) to allow the development of a two-story commercial
building in the Downtown area, and a Conditional Use Permit (UP 98-11) to allow the
establishment of a billiard hall in the proposed commercial building with incidental on-sale
general liquor service and late night hours of operation after 11:00 p.m.
The project site is located on the southeast comer of Central Avenue and East Campbell Avenue
and is within the City's Redevelopment Project Area. The site is surrounded by commercial
offices to the south, commercial offices and retail uses to the north across E. Campbell Avenue, a
hair salon to the east and a restaurant to the west across Central Avenue. The site is currently
developed with an auto repair business, which will be demolished to accommodate development
of the new project.
ANALYSIS
General Plan Designation: The General Plan land use designation for the project site is
commercial. The proposed two-story commercial building and billiard establishment, with
incidental on-sale general liquor service and late night hours of operation past 11 p.m., are
commercial uses which are consistent with the General Plan.
Central Campbell Redevelopment Plan: The project site is located in the Central Campbell
Redevelopment Project Area within the Downtown area of the City. The Central Campbell
Redevelopment Project Area was created by the Redevelopment Agency to encourage
elimination of visual, economic, physical and social blight and to facilitate redevelopment of the
project area. The goals for redevelopment of the project area are specified in the Central
Campbell Redevelopment Plan. The project site is also located within the City's Downtown area
and is subject to the goals and policies of the Campbell Downtown Development Plan. The
proposed commercial building and billiard establishment are consistent with the goals of both the
Staff Report - Planning Commission Meeting of November 24, 1998
S 98-17 & UP 98-11 - 368 E. Campbell Avenue
Page 3
Central Campbell Redevelopment Plan and the Campbell Downtown Development Plan as
follows:
a) Enhances the downtown as the civic, economic and cultural center of activity for the City
of Campbell.
b) Enhances the identity of the downtown as a central business district that serves as a
meeting place for local residents as well as a destination.
c) Facilitates the development of downtown as an economically viable commercial district.
d) Encourages a mix of economically viable commercial uses in the downtown creating a
balance of daytime and evening activities.
e) Enhances the pedestrian-oriented environment of the downtown.
f) Ensures that the new building in the downtown will be of high architectural design
quality and provides architectural diversity in the downtown.
Zoning Designation: The zoning designation for the project site is C-3-S (Central Business
District). The proposed two-story commercial building is a permitted use within this district.
The proposed billiard establishment is not a specifically identified use in the C-3-S zone.
However, under Section 21.26.030 (Uses Permitted with Use Permits) of the C-3-S zone and
pursuant to Section 21.59.070 of the Zoning Ordinance, the Planning Commission may make a
finding that such a use is similar to other uses permitted in that zoning district with approval of a
Conditional Use Permit.
A billiard establishment is a commercial entertainment use that is similar to an Arcade with
amusement devices and games. Arcades are specifically listed as a permitted use within the C-3-
S zone with approval of a Conditional Use Permit. Staff recommends that the Planning
Commission find that the proposed billiard hall is similar to an Arcade, with approval of a Use
Permit.
Site and Architectural Review Permit
Site Layout: The proposed site plan indicates the construction of a two-story, 5,523 square foot
commercial building on the southeast comer of Central Avenue and E. Campbell Avenue. The
building will be set back 14 feet from Campbell Avenue and 12.5 feet from Central Avenue. A
parking lot, providing 14 parking spaces, will be constructed behind the building and will be
accessed from Central Avenue. A planter area is provided along the southern property line to
screen the parking spaces. An outdoor patio enclosure is also provided facing the parking lot at
the back of the building.
Building Design: The proposed building will incorporate a simplified mission revival style of
architecture with a stucco exterior, use of arches and arched windows, and a scalloped parapet to
accent the facade at the street comer. In addition, the building will be accented by a wrought-
iron balcony on the second floor at the comer of the building. Additional architectural accents
include brick wainscoting at the base of the building, decorative stucco cornice treatments, and
recessed windows with wood trim.
Staff Report - Planning Commission Meeting of November 24, 1998
S 98-17 & UP 98-11 - 368 E. Campbell Avenue
Page 4
A color and material board has been submitted which shows the body of the building to be a
warm gray tone and the window trims and cornice to be painted white.
Staff has reviewed the elevations and is supportive of the proposed design of the commercial
building with the minor additional recommendations that additional colors be used to accent the
cornice and window trims, and to further alleviate the appearance of a flat building wall. Staff
has added conditions of approval which reflect these revisions to the building design.
Parking: The applicant is providing 14 parking spaces which is the required number of parking
spaces for a commercial building with retail and office uses, consistent with the C-3-S zoning
district. Other billiard halls within the City have previously been approved using such
commercial parking standards and Staff has noted no problems with the use of these parking
standards at these existing billiard halls.
The applicant is also requesting approval of a parking adjustment to parking space dimensions
which do not meet the standard parking dimensions of 9 feet (width) by 20 feet (length). The
proposed "standard" parking dimension is 8.5 feet (width) by 20 feet (length). Planning Staff is
supportive of this request and does not anticipate maneuverability and/or parking problems with
the lessened parking stall widths.
Conditional Use Permit
Proposed Billiard Establishment: The proposed billiard establishment will occupy the entire
5,523 square foot, two-story commercial building and is proposed to be an upscale, family-
oriented billiard hall, which would allow minors to enter and/or play billiards. The billiard hall
will consist of billiard tables, a separate full-service bar area, and a private pool room for parties.
There will also be large screen televisions for patrons to watch sporting events. The Use Permit
request is to establish a billiard hall as a primary business use with space predominantly devoted
for billiard tables. The separate bar area is limited to a small portion of the tenant space and is
only an incidental use to the billiard hall. In addition, the billiard establishment will offer catered
food from surrounding restaurants in the Downtown Campbell area as a means to provide food
service. The applicant has submitted a description letter of the business and proposes to employ
approximately 5-7 employees per shift. The applicant states that the majority of the customers
are anticipated to patronize the business after 7:00 p.m.
Campbell Municipal Code: Billiard halls are specifically identified and regulated under Chapter
5.28 (Pool and Billiard Halls - Business License and Regulations) of the Campbell Municipal
Code. The operator of a billiard establishment is required to obtain two (2) separate City permits
to operate such a use. Approval of a Use Permit is required to regulate the use and location of
billiard halls within the City. Approval of a Billiard Hall Permit is required to allow the Police
Department to review the background and competence of a billiard hall operator. This permit
requires approval by the City Council. A condition of approval has been added that requires the
Staff Report - Planning Commission Meeting of November 24, 1998
S 98-17 & UP 98-11 - 368 E. Campbell Avenue
Page 5
applicant and/or operator of the billiard hall to obtain approval of a Billiard Hall Permit prior to
operation of the use.
Liquor License: In conjunction with the billiard establishment, a separate full-service bar and
incidental on-sale general liquor service are proposed. The serving of alcoholic beverages for the
use is ancillary to the primary use of the building as a billiard hall. Conditions of approval have
been added to mitigate adverse impacts associated with the serving of alcohol. In addition, a
condition of approval has been added to require compliance with the State Department of
Alcoholic Beverage Control.
Hours of Operation: The applicant is requesting approval of the following hours of operation:
Sunday - Thursday
Friday & Saturday
7:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m.
7:00 a.m.. to 2:00 a.m.
The Campbell Police Department has reviewed the application and has no concerns or objections
with the proposed billiard establishment with the proposed late night hours of operation and on-
sale general liquor service.
Minors: The proposed billiard establishment intends to permit minors to enter and/or play
billiards if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. The City recently adopted an amendment
to the Pool and Billiards Hall ordinance under Chapter 5.28.030 of the Campbell Municipal Code
which includes a provision that permits minors under the age of 21 years to enter and/or play
billiards in billiard halls where on-premises alcoholic beverages are offered, if approved by a
Conditional Use Permit. Such approval is contingent upon approval of a billiard hall permit by
the City Council and subject to the approval by the State of California Department of Alcoholic
Beverage Control.
Staff has added conditions of approval to ensure that the billiard establishment will be safe for
the presence of minors. These conditions are included as part of a management plan whereby
employees will be trained to take reasonable precaution to ensure that no minors under the age of
14 shall be permitted to enter without being accompanied by a parent or legal guardian, that no
minors under 21 years of age are sold or served alcoholic beverages on the premises, and that
employees are trained to either remove customers creating disturbances on the premises and/or
seek assistance by the Police Department.
Site and Architectural Review Committee: The Site and Architectural Review Committee
reviewed the application at its meeting of November 10, 1998 and expressed the following
comments:
The proposed use of retail and office parking standards for the billiard establishment is a
concern. The Committee expressed concerns that the billiard establishment will need more
parking than would be provided using retail and office parking standards.
Staff Report - Planning Commission Meeting of November 24, 1998
S 98-17 & UP 98-11 - 368 E. Campbell Avenue
Page 6
2. The Committee is supportive of the parking adjustment to the standard parking stall size to
use 8.5 feet parking stall widths rather than 9 feet stall widths.
o
The applicant should review the location of the disabled person parking space to ensure that
the support column of the building does not interfere with the use of the striped access area
and meets Americans with Disabilities Act requirements.
The pattern and proportion of the windows and architectural details on the first floor lack
relationship to the pattern and proportion of windows and architectural details on the second
floor. The Committee recommends that the applicant revise the elevations to provide
consistent proportions of the windows and architectural details between the first and second
floors.
o
The arched walkway opening along the west side of the building facing Central Avenue is
large and is disproportionate to the arched windows on the building. The Committee
recommends that the elevation be revised to incorporate arched openings which are of the
same proportions as the arched windows. In addition, the Committee added that metal grids
be added within the openings to simulate the design of the arched windows.
o
The driveway width throughout the parking lot should be widened to 25 feet to allow
sufficient back-up space for any vehicle parked in space no. 7 along the east side of the
property. The Committee recommended that the planter along the east elevation be shortened
to accomplish the wider driveway width.
°
The colored perspective is not accurately drawn and does not depict the proposed setback of
the building from the street. The Committee recommends that the perspective be revised to
depict the proposed setbacks from the streets.
8. Additional landscaping should be incorporated along the street frontages adjacent to the
building.
The floor plans of the building and the proposed billiard establishment layout should be
consistent. In addition, the floor plans should indicate the flow path of customers within the
building.
10. The applicant should review plans to ensure compliance with Americans with Disabilities
Act requirements.
11. The Committee recommends that a condition of approval be added which requires that the
applicant demonstrate that there is no contamination on site due to the current and previous
use of the site as an auto repair business.

1. The proposed project will entail construction of a two-story, 5,523 square foot commercial
building.
2. The proposed project is located on property with a commercial land use designation under the
General Plan.
o
The proposed commercial building is consistent with the commercial land use designation of
the General Plan, the C-3-S (Central Business District) zoning designation for the site, the
Central Campbell Redevelopment Plan and the Campbell Downtown Development Plan, and
achieves the following objectives:
a) Enhances the downtown as the civic, economic and cultural center of activity for the City
of Campbell.
b) Enhances the identity of the downtown as a central business district that serves as a
meeting place for local residents as well as a destination.

5. The proposed project is well designed and is architecturally compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood and uses by integrating the use of traditional downtown architectural features.
0
The parking adjustment to reduce the required parking stall widths for standard parking
spaces is adequate to serve the proposed project and is warranted due to the limited width of
the property and the applicant' s efforts to maximize the number of parking spaces on the site
given the location of the proposed commercial building.

FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF FILE NO. UP 98-11
SITE ADDRESS: 368 E. Campbell Avenue
APPLICANT: Gary Merlo
P.C. MEETING: November 24, 1998
Attachment #3
Findings for Approval of a Use Permit (UP 98-11) to allow the establishment of a billiard hall
with incidental on-sale general liquor service, late night hours of operation past 11 p.m. and the
provision to allow minors to enter and/or play billiards within the billiard hall
The Planning Commission finds as follows with regard to File No. UP 98-11:
o
o
o
o
The proposed billiard establishment is a use that is similar to an Arcade, as permitted with a
Use Permit in the C-3-S zoning district, and is not specifically listed elsewhere as a use in a
less restrictive zoning district.
The proposed billiard establishment is not more objectionable to the general welfare than an
Arcade with amusement devices and games.
The proposed billiard establishment is a commercial entertainment use which is consistent
with the commercial land use designation of the General Plan, the C-3-S (Central Business
District) zoning designation for the site, the Central Campbell Redevelopment Plan and the
Campbell Downtown Development Plan.
The proposed on-sale general liquor service and late night hours of operation past 11 p.m. are
incidental to the primary function of the site as a billiard establishment.
The proposed on-sale general liquor service and late night hours of operation in conjunction
with the billiard hall are consistent with the commercial land use of the General Plan and the
C-3-S zoning designation for the site.
The extended operational hours past 11 p.m. and on-sale general liquor service, subject to the
conditions of approval, are compatible with the adjacent land uses and the surrounding
neighborhood.
The proposed billiard establishment with on-sale general liquor service will not result in an
over concentration of such uses in the area.
The proposed billiard establishment with on-sale general liquor service will not create a
nuisance due to noise, litter, vandalism, traffic or other factors.
The proposed billiard establishment with on-sale general liquor service will not significantly
disturb the peace and enjoyment of any nearby residential neighborhoods.
Findings for Approval for UP 98-117 - Planning Commission Meeting of November 24, 1998
UP 98-11 - 368 E. Campbell Avenue
Page 2
10. The proposed billiard establishment with on-sale general liquor service will not significantly
increase the demand on city services.
11. The provision to allow minors to enter and/or play billiards in the proposed billiard hall
where on-sale general liquor service is provided, will not be detrimental to the public safety,
peace, morals, comfort or general welfare of the minors.
12. The management plan included in the Conditions of Approval will ensure that minors under
the age of 21 are not served alcoholic beverages, and that appropriate supervision and control
will be implemented to ensure the safety of minors within the billiard establishment.
Based on the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
The proposed billiard establishment 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.
2. The proposed site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed uses and the
surrounding uses in the area.
3. The proposed site is adequately served by streets of sufficient capacity to carry the kind and
quantity of traffic such uses would generate.
4. The proposed billiard establishment is compatible with the adjacent land uses and the
surrounding neighborhood.

Dear Gary:
Campbell.
I have had an opportunity to visit your establishment three times in the last
several months. I am very pleased with how you and your staff manage the
business. Your staff was extremely mindful of alcohol consumption while
customers were playing pool. Frequent checks were made of tables to remove
empty glasses, and identifications were check regularly. During my three visits,
I never observed anyone who appeared to be intoxicated in public.
It was clear to me that patrons in your establishment were there to play pool and
not necessarily to consume alcohol. Based on my observations and information
that I have received from the Mountain View Police Department regarding calls
for service, I believe that there are not any law enforcement issues that will
prohibit you from moving forward with a similar business in the City of
Sincerely,
David L. Gullo

To Whom it May Concern:
I would like to share with you a success story regarding downtown Mountain View.
When the City completed the renovation of Castro Street and the new City Hall and
Center for the Performing Arts in 1990, some people asked if the downtown
revitalization process was "complete." The answer was "no." Much as these are
great achievements for a community, a successful downtown has to draw
customers, especially on evenings and weekends. The most challenging aspect of
revitalization is attracting the private investment needed to bring life to the
downtown.
One of the businesses that keeps Castro Street full of strolling customers is Pockets
Billiards. The owners renovated an older building that for many years was a beauty
college. They brought the building up to code. More important, they brought more
customers to Castro Street. In fact, Pockets is one reason that other businesses are
opening on the same block, including Fibbar Magee's, Don Giovanni, Molly's, and
Gelato Classico.
i~U'~e City is pleased to see th, at Pockets has been a rea! success in downtown. It is
frequently mentioned by the public as one of our night life anchors, and the
feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.
Thank you.

To Whom It May Concern:
Subject: Letter of Recommendation for Gary Merio
I have had the pleasure of planning 4 events at Pockets Billiarcls. Gary Merfo has consistently done a
remarkable job. I am always extremely pleased with the excellent customer service he provides. His
attention to details is a hard quality to find in other event coordinators. He continually informs me of the
status of my event, and on occasion has caught errors that I have made. In most events things usually
do not go precisely as planned. I have on occasion extended the time of an event if it was going
extremely well. One of the things that I appreciate most is the flexibility that Gary provides. Gary's staff
is extremely efficient and helpful at all times during their service to our attendees.
My events are for new and potential distributor employees. Those who have been fortunate enough to
attend one of our Pockets events have always had a great time. We can expect to obtain good
feedback for months after the event.
I sincerely appreciate his hard work over the past 2 years and feel very fortunate to have him as my
event coordinator for pool and learn events. It is wonderful to be able to put an event in Gary's hands
and knew that it will get done properly.
Furthermore, Gary's overall "good attitude" makes it a pleasure to do business with Pockets.

To whom it may concern:
A group of Netscape Engineers including myself have been patrons of the
"Pockets" establishment on Castro street in downtown Mountain View every
Wednesday night for the past year and a half and wholeheartedly endorse
the operation. Four primary reasons our group likes Pockets:
1) No Smoking policy
2) Demographic of the patrons - no young out of control kids - mostly
mid 20s to 50s group
3) It is clean, including the restrooms...
4) The staff remembers us and goes beyond the average level of
customer service - reminds me of the attention a consumer used to get
when I was a kid or that you expect in a European pub...
Pockets is a good clean operation and whenever someone asks me for a
place to play pool I recommend it over any other establishments I have
visited.

The project will result in a minor decrease in the amount of storm water mn-off from the site
due to a slight decrease in the impermeable coverage of the proposed project in comparison
with the existing building and pavement. The proposed project with building and paved
area will cover approximately 93% of the site. Approximately 7% of the site will be
devoted to landscaped area which will allow for filtration and percolation of run-off. The
site is currently developed with a building and paved parking area which covers the entire

Use Permit
Supplemental Application
FILE NO.
PURPOSE
A Use Permit allows for special consideration of certain
specified uses which may be compatible with an area depending
on the specifics of the particular case. The Use Permit process is
designed to provide the City sufficient flexibility to determine
whether a specific land use on a certain site will be compatible
with its environs and the General Plan.
PROCESS
Project Consideration & Pre-Application Review: In reviewing
a use permit application, the staff and Planning Commission will
evaluate such items as building placement and size, lxaffic
generation, noise, hours of operation, adequacy of parking,
circulation, drop-off facilities and overall compatibility of use
with adjoining properties. It is recommended that the applicant
submit a preliminary proposal to the Planning Department prior
to submission of formal application. This will allow the
Planning staff to review the request and inform the applicant of
possible concerns related to the proposal.
Filing of Application: The applicant should submit a completed
application, filing fee, a written statement and other required
information to the Planning Department. A planner will be
assigned to review the material to make sure all the required
information is provided. The applicant will be notified within
30 days as to whether the application is complete or whether
additional information is required.
Environmental Review: Typically, use permits are categorically
exempt from the environmental review process.
Site and Architectural Review Committee (SARC): Use permit
applications involving exterior modifications require review by
SARC. The Committee reviews the application for site layout
and building design and then forwards a recommendation to the
Planning Commission.
Staff Review: The Planning staff will review the application and
conduct a site investigation to determine the relationship of the
request with the City's General Plan and to analyze land use,
traffic, site plan and other impacts or concerns of the proposed
project. A written staff report will be prepared for the Planning
Commission (PC) that includes staff's recommendations and a
description of the development proposal. A copy of this report
will be sent to the applicant during the week prior to the PC
hearing on the application. Copies are also available to the
public.
Public Notice: All use permit applications require a public
hearing which is held during the Planning Commission meeting.
At least ten days prior to the meeting, property owners within
300 feet of the site will be notified by mail of the public hearing
and a notice will be published in the Campbell Express.
Planning Commission Meeting: The staff will present an oral
report and recommendation for your application. This
presentation will be followed by testimony from the applicant
and then by any interested persons who may wish to comment
on the application. The Planning Commission may then close
the public hearing and make a decision approving or
conditionally approving the request, denying the request or
postponing the decision to a later date. Unless an appeal is filed,
the Planning Commission's decision will become final unless
ratification is required by the City Council.
AvDeal to CiW Council: Use permits do not go to the City
Council unless the Planning Commission's decision is appealed
within ten calendar days.

Re:
Use Permit: Pockets Billiards
Address: Campbell Avenue, Campbell, CA 95008
To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to propose establishing Pockets Billiards in the City of Downtown Campbell.
"Pockets" will have approximately 15 to 18 billiards tables. It will also offer large screen televisions for
sporting events and a full-service bar.
Pockets will employ 5-7 employees per shift.
Approving this application will provide Downtown Campbell residents and patrons with a popular
source of night-time entertainment. This upscale establishment will enhance the business community that is
currently being brought to the Downtown area. Billiards is a thriving trend that will invite more people to
Downtown Campbell.
To further address the issue of this application, I have enclosed a strategic brief, which detail
further intent of Pockets Billiards.

RE:
Review of a Pre-application (PA 98-53) pertaining to the proposed development of a
5,500 square foot building for a billiard establishment
Dear Mr. Merlo:
Thank you for your submittal of plans for the preliminary review of the proposed two-story,
5,500 square foot building for a billiard establishment at 368 E. Campbell Avenue. The
Planning Department has determined that the project will require approval of a Site and
Architectural Review Permit to allow construction of the building and a Use Permit to allow
the billiards use, on-sale general liquor service, and late night hours of operation. The fees for
the applications are $1,550 for the Site and Architectural Permit and $1,550 for the Use
Permit. Please find enclosed applications for a Site and Architectural Review Permit and a
Use Permit for your convenience.
Prior to submittal of applications for the Site and Architectural Review Permit and Use Permit,
the Planning Department requests that the following additional revisions be made on the plans
to address site and architectural issues, and additional information be submitted to clarify the
proposed uses:
1. The proposed-access to the trash enclosure from Central Avenue is not acceptable. The
trash enclosure must be accessible from within the property, and cannot be accessible from
the public right-of-way. It is suggested that the trash enclosure access be re-oriented from
the west side of the enclosure to the north side of the enclosure.
In review of the on-site parki~, it appears that a combination of retail and office parking
standards have been applied to the project, as there is no particular parking standard in the
C-3-S (Central Business District) zoning ordinance for a billiard use. In calculating the
parking, with use of retail parking standards applied to the ground floor square footage and
office parking standards applied to the second floor square footage of the project, the total
parking equates to 14 required parking spaces.
The proposed project, however, provides only 13 parking spaces. Please review the
parking layout to accommodate sufficient parking for the site. The City requires that

368 E. Campbell - Pockets (PA 98-53)
Page 2
standard parking stall sizes be 9 feet by 20 feet and compact spaces (maximum of 40% of
the required spaces allowed) may be 8 feet by 16 feet. If an applicant desires to install
parking stalls with less than the required dimensions, the applicant must receive approval
by the Planning Commission.
3. Please provide additional information regarding number of employees, uses for the "private
room" on the second floor, and if any food service will be provided for the business.
Please provide information regarding proposed equipment (i.e. air conditioning units) to be
placed on the roof of the building. All roof-mounted equipment must be screened from
public view.
5. A separate sign application must be submitted for review and approval of the proposed
signage for the business. The C-3-S zoning ordinance states that comer businesses may
have two (2) wall signs and that such signs must be located below the second floor sill on
multi-storied buildings.
6. It appears that the building could be further enhanced by architectural features which are
consistent with features found within the Campbell Downtown area (i.e. use of brick on the
exterior of the ground level portion of the building, or other types of accent materials used
in the Downtown area). Please consider addition of these accent materials on the proposed
elevations of the building. Planning Staff is available to work with you and to review any
proposals you may have to enhance the architecture of the building.
In addition to the above-referenced comments, Geoff Bradley, Redevelopment Coordinator,
has also submitted comments for your review. Please find attached a copy of his memo which
outlines the issues from the City's Redevelopment Agency.

The following is a summary of issues/items based on a review by the Redevelopment Agency of the
plans submitted on 7/17/98.
Site Plan:
1) Show streetscape improvements (Curb, driveways, street lights, street trees, etc.) see attached
sheet.
2) Show center line of street & dimension to property line (30' on Campbell Ave./25' on Central
Ave.)
3) Show adjacent buildings (Faux, Alie's & Water Tower ID - see streetscape construction drawing
attached.
4) Align parking aisle with Dodge property to allow for future shared parking & recipricol
ingress/egress easements.
5) Use an 18' stall depth with 2' of overhang into planter areas (for standargl size spaces).
6) Reorient garbage enclosure to face parking lot - o.k. for parking space in front. Size for future
two tenants plus recycling (3 bins).
7) Provide 10' sidewalk from face of curb - show dedication as required.
8) Consider bringing building to east property line and exiting rear patio to parking lot. Locate
utilities in less visible location. Creates awkward gap in streetscape.
9) Redesign parking along south property line to get 8 spaces (8'x8.5' =68'). Use screen wall and
smaller planter area along Central Avenue. Parking then balances for office over retail use.
10) Space between property lines and building - indicate treatment.
Elevations:
1) Show adjacent buildings - Faux, Alie's & Water Tower II.
2) Consider use of brick on fn'st level to relate to Farley Building and Alie's Caf&
3) East elevations needs work - highly visible from west bound Campbell Avenue.
4) Show design of trash enclosure to complement building - materials, details, etc.
5) Consider use of balconies on street elevations.
6) Indicate height of parapet (section or line) to show adequate roof equipment screening.
7) Signage subject to separate application and approval process (staff level)
Note to Property Owner:
1) Additional comments from Planning, Public Works, Building and County Fire will be
forthcoming.
2) You may resubmit revised plans now or wait untill you have received all comments.

I received the statistics for calls for service for Pockets from the Mountain View
Police Department for the last 12 months. They had six calls for service, i.e.,
two vandalism, one disturbance, one alarm, and two thefts from vehicles in the
nearby parking lot. Clearly these statistics indicate that Pockets has a low crime
rate/calls for service.

Dear Gary:
I have had an opportunity to visit your establishment three times in the last
several months. I am very pleased with how you and your staff manage the
business. Your staff was extremely mindful of alcohol consumption while
customers were playing pool. Frequent checks were made of tables to remove
empty glasses, and identifications were check regularly. During my three visits,
I never observed anyone who appeared to be intoxicated in public.
It was clear to me that patrons in your establishment were there to play pool and
not necessarily to consume alcohol. Based on my observations and information
that I have received from the Mountain View Police Department regarding calls
for service, I believe that there are not any law enforcement issues that will
prohibit you from moving forward with a similar business in the City of
Campbell.
