Subject: Drainage Plan for Campbell Residence at 1440 Juanita Way, Campbell-Easement
Location
Dear Mr. Campbell:
Santa Clara Valley Water District (District) staff received a request for the easement description
located adjacent to the subject property on November 5, 2004.
Per your request, I faxed you a copy of the District's easement description that is located along
the western portion of your property. In response to concerns regarding the location of the
easement, I reviewed the property description for a second time and have discovered that, in
contrast to my previous assessment, the easement limits do not follow the property line.
Instead, the easement transects your property at a slightly oblique angle.
A subsequent site visit was conducted on November 17, 2004. Although the exact location of
the easement can not be determined without performing a field survey, the field measurements
taken during the site visit verified that the proposed 6-inch leach line is not within the easement
limits, and a District permit is not required prior to the start of construction.
The proposed trees will still need to be relocated outside the District easement, and the existing
fence is subject to damage or removal by the District during maintenance or emergency flood
control activities. The owner will not be compensated for the materials should they be damaged
or removed, and the fence must be removed or relocated upon request by the District.
Please contact Mr. Frank Baronessa at (408) 265-2607, extension 2147, at least 48 hours prior to
the installation of the leach line to have the District's 54-inch reinforced concrete pipe marked. If
you have any comments or questions, please call me at (408) 265-2607, extension 3135. Please
reference District File No. 26287 on any future correspondence regarding this project.

RESOLUTION NO. 3591
BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF CAMPBELL GRANTING A TREE REMOVAL PERMIT
(pLN2004-45) TO ALLOW THE REMOVAL OF ONE PROTECTED
TREE ON PROPERTY OWNED BY KEN AND CHRIS CAMPBELL
LOCATED AT 1440 JUANITA WAY IN AN R-I-IO (SINGLE FAMILY
RESIDENTIAL) ZONING DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF MR. KEN
GRIDLEY, ON BEHALF OF KEN AND CHRIS CAMPBELL. FILE NO.
PLN2004-4S.
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 PLN2004-45:
1. The proposed Tree Removal Pennit is consistent with the R-l-1 0 (Single-family Residential)
zoning designation and the General Plan Low Density Residential designation.
2. The proposed tree replacement requirement of one 24-inch box size tree is consistent with the
requirements of the Tree Protection Ordinance.
3. The proposed replacement tree will be a sufficient replacement for the Cedar tree to be
removed and shall continue the diversity of tree species found in the community.
4. According to the Arborist's Report it is in poor structural condition because it has been
topped and the main leader removed in the past, resulting in branches that are weakly
attached to the tree and may be vulnerable to failure in future years.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
1. The Deodar Cedar tree is in poor health, and the applicant has demonstrated to the
satisfaction of the Planning Commission that this danger cannot be controlled or remedied
through reasonable preservation and/or preventative procedures and practices.
2. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the Conditions of
Approval and the impacts of the project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission grants a Tree Removal
Pennit (PLN2004-45) to allow the removal of one protected tree (Cedar) on property owned by
Ken and Chris Campbell located at 1440 Juanita Way, subject to the following conditions:

DISCUSSION
Applicant's Proposal: The applicant is requesting approval of a Site and Architectural Review
Permit to allow the construction of a new two-story single-family residence located at 1440
Juanita Way. The subject property is located on the south side of Juanita Way at the end of the
cul-de-sac. The property is surrounded by single-family residences on the north, south, east, and
west.
Background: The subject property is currently developed with a 1,115 square foot single-story
residence that was constructed in approximately 1948. The existing residence would be
significantly demolished to allow for the construction of the two-story residence. Only the
existing floor framing and west side building wall would remain.
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 ofthe proposed project is 3.2
units per gross acre, which is consistent with the General Plan land use designation.
The proposed project complies with the following General Plan Land Use Element Strategies:
Strategy LUT-5.2a: Neighborhood Compatibility: Promote new residential
development and substantial additions that are designed to maintain and support the
existing character and development pattern of the surrounding neighborhood,
especially in historic neighborhoods and neighborhoods with consistent design
characteristics.
Strategy LUT -7 .2n: Consistencv With Plans: Ensure that new development and
substantial remodeling projects are consistent with Specific Plans, Area Plans, City
Standard Details, and adopted Streetscape Standards to create a cohesive design.
Strategy LUT-9.3e: Building Materials: Encourage the use of long-lasting, high
quality building materials on all buildings to ensure the long-term quality of the
built environment.
Strategy LUT-17.1b: Landscaping: Ensure that new developments provide new tree
plantings, shrubs, greenery and other landscaping materials, and preserve existing
trees and shrubs.
San Tomas Area Neighborhood Plan: The project site is located in the San Tomas Neighborhood
and is subject to the San Tomas Area Neighborhood Plan (STANP.) Staff finds that the
proposed project is consistent with the development standards and design guidelines of the
STANP.
Zoning Classification: The zoning classification for the project site is R-1-1O (Single-Family
Residential, 10,000 square foot minimum lot size.) The proposed project is consistent with the
zoning designation and meets the minimum setbacks, height restriction, building coverage, floor
area ratio, and parking requirements of the R-1-10 Zoning District.
Staff Report - Planning Cvllunission Meeting of October 12, 2004
PLN2004-104 & 45 - 1440 Juanita Way
Page 3 of 4
Site Layout and Architecture: The proposed site plan shows the removal of a substantial
portion of the existing single-story residence and the construction of a two-story residence with
an attached two-car garage. Everything except the existing floor framing and west side
building wall would be removed to allow for the new construction. The second story of the
residence is stepped in from the front and side elevations of the building to reduce the
perceived mass of the residence.
The proposed residence incorporates representative architectural features of homes in the San
Tomas Neighborhood including simple rectangular shaped building forms, hipped roof forms,
a two-car garage door, and a stucco exterior. Additional architectural features include a
defined entry porch, stone wainscot and accents, and decorative doors. The proposed residence
incorporates a consistent window style on all elevations. The building style incorporates
architectural elements from the newer residential development in the area.
The proposed colors for the house consist of an earthtone body color, off-white accent color,
wood moss trim color, and cultured stone wainscot. The proposed roof material is a dark brown
colored composition shingle.
The proposed project is well designed and is architecturally compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood. The sloping roof forms minimize the perceived scale and mass of the residence.
Staff finds that the proposed design meets the design criteria set forth in the STANP.
Trees/Landscaping: The applicant is proposing the removal of an 18" Deodar Cedar tree on
the project site. According to the arborist report it is currently in good health, however the
structure is poor because the tree has been topped and the main leader removed. The Cedar tree
is also located in close proximity to a 22" Valley Oak tree on the property. The two trees are
growing their branches into one another because they are too close together. In an effort to
increase and preserve the health of the Oak tree, the Cedar tree is recommended to be removed.
The applicant is required to plant one 24" box tree to replace the Cedar Tree. Pursuant to the
STANP, the applicant is required to provide one tree per 2,000 square feet of net lot area, or six
trees. The proposed site plan shows the location of the required number of trees.
Site and Architectural Review Committee: The Site and Architectural Review Committee
reviewed this application at its meeting of September 14, 2004. The Committee was supportive
of the project as presented.

homes in the San Tomas Neighborhood including hipped and gabled roof forms, two-car
garage doors, compositions shingles, and stucco siding.
8. The proposed project is surrounded by single-family residential uses to the north, south, east
and west.

Findings for Approval of a Tree Removal Permit to allow the removal of one protected tree.
The Planning Commission finds as follows with regard to File No. PLN2004-45:
1. The proposed Tree Removal Permit is consistent with the R-l-lO (Single-family Residential)
zoning designation and the General Plan Low Density Residential designation.
2. The proposed tree replacement requirement of one 24-inch box size tree is consistent with the
requirements of the Tree Protection Ordinance.
3. The proposed replacement tree will be a sufficient replacement for the Cedar tree to be
removed and shall continue the diversity of tree species found in the community.
4. According to the Arborist's Report it is in poor structural condition because it has been
topped and the main leader removed in the past, resulting in branches that are weakly
attached to the tree and may be vulnerable to failure in future years.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
1. The Deodar Cedar tree is in poor health, and the applicant has demonstrated to the
satisfaction of the Planning Commission that this danger cannot be controlled or remedied
through reasonable preservation and/or preventative procedures and practices.
2. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the Conditions of
Approval and the impacts of the project.
