TIM OLDHAM. FILE NO. PLN2002-139.
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 City Council did find as follows with
respect to application PLN2002-139:
1. The proposed creation of four residential lots and one common lot is consistent with the
Medium Density Residential (14-20 units per gross acre) General Plan land use designation
for the property.
2. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map is consistent with the Planned Development Zoning
Ordinance.
3. The provisions of the Covenants Conditions and Restrictions are necessary to ensure the
long-term maintenance of the common access driveway, shared parking area and
landscaping.
4. The Tentative Parcel Map has been distributed to local agencies, including Pacific Gas and
Electric, West Valley Sanitation District, Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority and
the Santa Clara Valley Water District. None of these agencies raised any concerns about
providing services to the proposed lots.
5. The project qualifies as Categorically Exempt under Section 15315, Class 15 of the

Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the City Council further finds and concludes that:
1. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map is consistent with the General Plan and Zoning
Ordinance of the City.
2. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map does not impair the balance between the housing needs
of the region and the public service needs of its residents and available fiscal and
environmental resources.
3. The design of the Tentative Parcel Map provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive or
natural heating and cooling opportunities.

RESOLUTION NO. 20306
BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE. CITY COUNCII. OF THE CITY OF
CAMPBELL APPROVING A TREE REMOVAL PERMIT (PLN2002-
141) TO ALLOW THE REMOVAL OF ONE BLACK WALNUT TREE
ON PROPERTY OWNED BY MR. TIM OLDHAM LOCATED AT 1396
W. LATIMER AVENUE IN A P-D (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT)
ZONING DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF MR. TIMOTHY OLDHAM.
FILE NO. PLN2002-141.
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 City Council did find as follows with
respect to application PLN2002-141:
1. The proposed Tree Removal Permit is consistent with the Medium Density Residential (14-
20 units per gross acre) General Plan land use designation and P-D (Planned-Development)
Zoning District.
2. The project will allow the removal of one protected tree (one 36-inch diameter Black Walnut
tree) because it would prohibit the construction of the new buildings due to its central
location.
3. The two proposed 36-inch box replacement trees exceed the tree replacement requirements of
the Tree Protection Regulations.
4. The proposed replacement trees will be a sufficient replacement for the trees to be removed
and will continue the diversity of tree species found in the community.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the City Council further finds and concludes that:
1. The retention of the trees restricts the economic enjoyment of the property and creates an
unusual hardship for the property owner by severely limiting the use of the property in a
manner not typically experienced by owners of similarly zoned and situated properties, and
the applicant has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Planning Commission that there are
no reasonable alternatives to preserve the trees.
2. No substantial evidence has been presented from which a reasonable argument could be
made that shows that the project, as currently presented and subject to the required conditions
of approval, will have a significant adverse impact on the environment.
3. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the conditions of
approval .and the impacts of the project.

BACKGROUND
The applicant is requesting approval of a Zone Change (PLN2002-138) from R-2-S (Multiple
Family Residential) to P-D (Planned Development); a Tentative .Parcel Map (PLN2002-139) to
allow the creation of four lots and one common lot; a Planned Development Permit (PLN2002-

City Council Report Page 2
PLN2002-138, 139, 140 & 141- 1396 W. Latimer Ave.
Zone Change, Tentative Parcel Map, Planned Development Permit and Tree Removal Permit
The project site is currently developed with asingle-family home, which would be demolished
for this project. The subject property is located on the south side of West Latimer Avenue,
between Superior Drive and San Tomas Aquino Road, and is surrounded by single-family
residential uses to the north, multiple family residential uses to the south and west and duplexes
to the east.
The Planning Commission, at its meeting of February 10, 2004, forwarded a recommendation to
the City Council by a 7-0 vote to approve the four applications. The Commission added three
conditions to address the following issues:
1) Additional review of the proposed stairways so they do not compromise the clear height
of the garages;
2) Adjusting the landscaping area in front of unit 3 so that a visitor parking space with
adequate turnaround could be provided; and
3) Requiring the installation of two thirty-six inched boxed trees to replace the Black
Walnut tree.
The Conditions of approval for the Planned Development Permit and the Tree Removal Permit
address these issues.
ANALYSIS
General Plan Desi ation: The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Medium
Density Residential (14-20 units per gross acre). The proposed project would be developed at a
density of 12.9 units per gross acre, which is less than the density range allowed for the site.
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: Consistency 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.
City Council Report Page 3
PLN2002-138, 139, 140 & 141-1396 W. Latimer Ave.
Zone Change, Tentative Parcel Map, Planned Development Permit and Tree Removal Permit
Zone Chance: The current zoning designation for the project site is R-2-S (Multiple Family
Residential). In the R-2-S zoning district, amulti-family dwelling of five units could be
constructed on the project site if all other development standards (i.e. setbacks, parking, etc.)
could be met. The applicant is requesting approval of a Zone Change from R-2-S to P-D to allow
for the development of four townhomes, each unit to be constructed on an individual lot. The
Zone Change does not affect the maximum density range allowance for the property, but does
allow for the separate ownership of the units as opposed to the development of amulti-family
dwelling on a single lot (i.e. apartments).
Tentative Parcel Man: The applicant is requesting approval of a Tentative Parcel Map to
subdivide the property into four residential lots and one common lot. The common lot would
consist of a common access driveway, shared parking spaces and landscaping.
A condition of approval has been added that requires the applicant to submit a draft copy of the
Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) which provide for the formation of a
homeowner's association to ensure the long-term maintenance of the common access driveway,
shared parking spaces and landscaping. The draft CC&R's would be submitted prior to
recordation of the Parcel Map, for review and approval by the Community Development Director
and City Attorney.
Planned Development Permit: The Planned Development Permit would allow for the
construction of four townhomes, each on individual lots. All of the residences would take
vehicular access from West Latimer Avenue via a 20-foot wide common driveway running along
the eastern property line.
The site plan provides the required 14 parking spaces, six covered and eight uncovered. The
proposed units have one or two-car garages and there are eight exterior spaces.
Tree Removal Permit: The applicant is proposing to remove one Black Walnut tree that is
protected under the City's Tree Protection Regulations. One 36-inch diameter walnut tree is
proposed to be removed to accommodate the new buildings. An arborist report was prepared for
this project by a Certified Arborist. The landscape plan indicates the two required 36-inch box
trees would be installed for replacement of the existing tree.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Approve the proposed project subject to additional and/or modified conditions of approval.
2. Deny the proposed project.
3. Continue for further review.
FISCAL IMPACTS
None.

BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF CAMPBELL RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF A
ZONE CHANGE (PLN2002-138) FROM R-2-S (MULTIPLE
FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) TO P-D (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT)
ON PROPERTY OWNED BY MR. TIM OLDHAM LOCATED AT
1396 W. LATIMER AVENUE. APPLICATION OF MR. TIM
OLDHAM. FILE NO. PLN2002-138.
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 PLN2002-138:
1. The proposed P-D zoning designation is consistent with the current Medium Density
Residential (14-20 units per gross acre) General Plan land use designation for the property.
2. The proposed density of 12.9 units per gross acre is less than the maximum allowed density
range of 14-20 units per gross acre permitted in the Medium Density Residential General
Plan land use designation.
3. Under the R-2-S zoning designation, a 5 unit multi-family dwelling could be constructed on
the project site, if all other development standards could be met (i.e. setbacks, parking, etc.).
4. The zoning designation change from R-2-S to P-D does not affect the maximum density
range allowed for the property.
5. The zoning designation change from R-2-S to P-D allows for the separate ownership of units
as opposed to the development of amulti-family dwelling on a single lot (i.e. apartments).
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
1. The proposed development and uses will clearly result in a more desirable environment and
use of the land than would be possible under any other zoning classification.
2. The development and uses will be compatible with the General Plan of the City and will aid
in the harmonious development of the immediate area.
3. The proposed development will not result in allowing more residential units than would be
allowed by other residential zoning districts which are consistent with the recommended
General Plan land use designation of the property.
4. The proposed zoning classification change will not be detrimental to the health, safety or
welfare of the neighborhood or the City as a whole.

6. There is a reasonable relationship between the use of the fees imposed upon the project and
the type of development project.

IN A P-D (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT) ZONING DISTRICT.
APPLICATION OF MR. TIM OLDHAM. FILE NO. PLN2002-139.
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 PLN2002-139:
1. The proposed creation of four residential lots and one common lot is consistent with the
Medium Density Residential (14-20 units per gross acre) General Plan land use designation
for the property.
2. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map is consistent with the Planned Development Zoning
Ordinance.
3. The provisions of the Covenants Conditions and Restrictions are necessary to ensure the
long-term maintenance of the common access driveway, shared parking area and
landscaping.

residences take vehicular access from West Latimer Avenue via a 20-foot wide, common
access driveway running along the eastern property line.
4. Private open space is provided for each unit by a private rear yard area. The rear yard areas
have a minimum depth of 5 feet and a width ranging from 36 feet to 42 feet. Two of the
units have a 359 or 354 square foot private rear yard area and the other two have a 450
square foot private rear yard.
5. The project provides 14 off-street parking spaces, where 14 spaces are required.
6. The completed project would consist of four new townhomes with a building coverage of
29.3%, landscaping coverage of 32.6% and paving coverage of 38.1%.
7. The proposed project will have a floor area ratio of 0.67.
8. The subject property is surrounded by single-family residential uses to the north, duplexes to
the west and multiple-family residential uses to the south and west.

Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
1. The proposed development will result in a more desirable environment and use of the land
than would be possible under any other zoning classification.
2. The development will be compatible with the General Plan of the City and will aid in the
harmonious development of the immediate area.
3. The proposed development will not result in allowing more residential units than would be
allowed by other residential zoning districts, which are consistent with the General Plan
designation of the property.
4. The proposed development will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of the
neighborhood or the City as a whole.
5. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the conditions of
approval and the impacts of the project.
6. There is a reasonable relationship between the use of the fees imposed upon the project and
the type of development project.
7. No substantial evidence has been presented from which a reasonable argument could be
made that shows that the project, as currently presented and subject to the required conditions
of approval, will have a significant adverse impact on the environment.

OF MR. TIMOTHY OLDHAM. FILE NO. PLN2002-141.
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 PLN2002-141:
The proposed Tree Removal Permit is consistent with the Medium Density Residential (14-
20 units per gross acre) General Plan land use designation and P-D (Planned-Development)
Zoning District.
2. The project will allow the removal of one protected tree (one 36-inch diameter Black Walnut
tree) because it would prohibit the construction of the new buildings due to its central
location.
3. The two proposed 36-inch box replacement trees exceed the tree replacement requirements of
the Tree Protection Regulations.
4. The proposed replacement trees will be a sufficient replacement for the trees to be removed
and will continue the diversity of tree species found in the community.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
1. The retention of the trees restricts the economic enjoyment of the property and creates an
unusual hardship for the property owner by severely limiting the use of the property in a
manner not typically experienced by owners of similarly zoned and situated properties, and
the applicant has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Planning Commission that there are
no reasonable alternatives to preserve the trees.
2. No substantial evidence has been presented from which a reasonable argument could be
made that shows that the project, as currently presented and subject to the required conditions
of approval, will have a significant adverse impact on the environment.
3. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the conditions of
approval and the impacts of the project.
Planning Commission Resolution No. 3540

(PLN2002-140) to allow the construction of four townhome units; and
Tree Removal Permit (PLN2002-141) to allow the removal of one
walnut tree. Staff is recommending that this project be deemed
Categorically Exempt under CEQA. Tentative City Council Meeting
Date: March 2, 2004. Project Planner: Tim J. Haley, Associate
Planner
Mr. Tim J. Haley, Associate Planner, presented the staff report as follows:
• Advised that the applicant is seeking approval to develop property located at 1396 W.
Latimer Avenue with four townhome units. Included is a Zone Change from R-2-S to PD,
a Parcel Map to create four lots and one common drive, a Planned Development Permit to
construct four townhomes and a Tree Removal Permit to allow the removal of one black
walnut tree located at the rear of the property.
• Informed that asingle-family residence that is to be demolished currently occupies the site.
The property is located on the south side of W. Latimer Avenue between San Tomas
Aquino and Superior. Single-family residences are to the north, multiple-family residential
to the south and west and duplexes to the east.
• Said that the project is proposed at a density of 12.9 units per gross acre. The General Plan
Land Use designation of Medium Density Residential allows a density of 14-20 units per
gross acre. The site would accommodate up to five apartment units.
• Stated that the project is proposed as three buildings. The two front buildings are detached
and the rear building is a duet or duplex structure.
• Described the lot coverage as 29 percent, the landscaping at 32 percent and the paving at
39 percent. Fourteen parking spaces will be provided, six covered and eight uncovered.
The units are three bedroom, two-and-a-half bath and range between 1,584 and 1,773
square feet with one and two car attached garages.
• Said that the proposal includes changing the zoning to Planned Development to allow the
subdivision of the site into individual lots.
• Explained that the architectural style features stucco and wood siding wainscoting.
Features such as porches, bay windows and gables accent the units. Private open spaces
ranging from 333 to 395 square feet are provided. Decorative paving will be included.
Planning Commission Minutes of February 10, 2004 Page 3
• Suggested that the Commission adopt four Resolutions forwarding recommendations of
approval of this project to Council.
Commissioner Hernandez asked about the plan to replace the walnut tree with two 36-inch box
trees while the proposed Conditions of Approval only call out for one. He suggested that two
replacements be formalized in the Conditions.
Associate Planner Tim J. Haley explained that the applicant is proposing two but the
Ordinance requires just one replacement tree. He agreed that the Conditions could reflect the
plans for two replacement trees.
Commissioner Hernandez asked for clarification on the location of the eighth uncovered
parking space, asking if one is a tandem space.
Associate Planner Tim J. Haley pointed out that one of the spaces is located in front of Unit 3
in the driveway area and may not be clearly delineated on the plan.
Commissioner Hernandez asked if any traffic concerns were raised about the access from the
site onto Latimer Avenue.
Associate Planner Tim J. Haley replied that the City's Traffic Engineer who reviewed this
proposal raised no issues or concerns.
Commissioner Gibbons presented the Site and Architectural Review Committee report as
follows:
• Reported that SARC reviewed this project on two occasions, December 9, 2003, and
January 27, 2004.
• Said that this has been a challenging project and that the applicant has worked
substantively to improve parking and landscaping, issues raised by SARC at its December
9`~ meeting. At that time the applicant was asked to modify the proposed building colors
and provide window sill/trim details. The applicant subsequently has provided additional
and cleared drawings.
• Concluded by stating the SARC is in favor of this project over all.
Chair Doorley opened the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 1.
Chair Doorley closed the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 1.
Commissioner Gibbons:
• Pointed out that one comment she brought up at the first SARC meeting has not yet been
addressed. That issue is the placement of stairs in the garages of a couple of units and her
concern that the resulting lowered ceiling height might preclude the parking of many types
of vehicles.
• Suggested that a Condition be imposed that requires clarification and approval by the
Community Development Director in resolving that conflict.
Planning Commission Minutes of February 10, 2004 Page 4
Commissioner Hernandez asked staff what the minimum number is for uncovered parking
spaces.
Associate Planner Tim J. Haley replied that there is a minimum for covered parking provided,
which for this development is four while they are providing six. There is also a minimum total
number of parking spaces to be provided per unit.
Commissioner Hernandez:
• Expressed concern about the one parking space in the driveway and the fact that it may be
tight to maneuver in and out of this spot.
• Questioned if proper ingress, egress and fire access is being provided.
• Stated his concern about minimum setbacks for this type of development with two and a
half story structures.
Commissioner Gibbons:
• Stated that she struggled regarding the provision of parking and open space but did not pick
up on that particular parking space.
• Concurred that this space might be an issue.
Chair Doorley reopened the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 1 and invited the applicant to
address these concerns raised about the garage heights and access to Units 3 and 4.
Mr. Tim Oldham, Applicant and Owner, 1396 W. Latimer Avenue, Campbell:
• Reported that per his architect, the project as designed meets the legal standards.
Commissioner Gibbons said that she has problem with the eighth parking space.
Senior Planner Geoff I. Bradley reported that this spot had previously been landscaping. He
added that Fire does not need to go all the way back to serve this site.
Commissioner Gibbons said that she has a problem with cars getting out of this really
constrained space.
Associate Planner Tim J. Haley reminded that the applicant and SARC had elected to create a
front yard area for Unit 4 so parking got shifted.
Commissioner Gibbons said that SARC may have tried too hard there. Suggested adding a
Condition of Approval that the No. 8 parking space be modified to allow better turnaround and
access even if it reduces the yard area in front of Unit 4.
Commissioner Hernandez asked if she is referring to the entire private yard space area.
Commissioner Gibbons replied not all of it.
Commissioner Hernandez agreed that this condition seems reasonable.

DISCUSSION
Back rog und: The project was continued from the previous Planning Commission meeting of
January 14, 2004, so that the applicant could submit revised plans modifying the parking
arrangement and refining the building elevations.
Applicant's Proyosal: The applicant is requesting approval of a Zone Change (PLN2002-138)
from R-2-S (Multiple Family Residential) to P-D (Planned Development); a Tentative Parcel
Map (PLN2002-139) to allow the creation of four lots and one common lot; a Planned
Development Permit (PLN2002-140) to allow the construction of four townhomes and a Tree
Removal Permit (PLN2002-141) to allow the removal of one Black Walnut tree on property
located at 1396 W. Latimer Avenue.
Property Description: The project site is currently developed with asingle-family home, which
would be demolished with this project. The subject property is located on the south side of West
Staff Report -Planning Commission Meeting of February 10, 2004
PLN2002-138/139/140/141- 1396 W. Latimer Avenue
Page 3
Latimer Avenue, between San Tomas Aquino Rd. and Superior Drive, and is surrounded by
single-family residential uses to the north, multiple family residential uses to the south and west
and duplexes to the east. A variety of apartments, condominiums and townhomes projects have
been constructed on the south side of West Latimer Avenue to the west of the project site in a
one, two and, two and one-half story formats over the past 25 years within a similar General Plan
Land Use designation of Medium Density Residential.
ANALYSIS
General Plan Desi nation: The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Medium
Density Residential (14-20 units per gross acre). The maximum density for this site would be six
units at 19.3 units per gross acre under the General Plan density range. The proposed project is
developed at a density of 12.9 units per gross per acre. The City does not have a policy requiring
that residential projects meet the minimum permitted density. Therefore, the proposed project is
consistent with the General Plan.
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-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.
Zoning Designation: The current zoning designation for the project site is R-2-S (Multiple
Family Residential). In the R-2-S zoning district, amulti-family dwelling could be constructed
on the project site, if all other development standards (i.e. setbacks, parking, etc.) could be met.
A maximum of five units could be constructed under the current zoning.
The applicant is requesting approval of a Zone Change from R-2-S to P-D to allow for the
development of four townhomes, each unit to be constructed on an individual lot and a common
driveway. The Zone Change allows for the separate ownership of the units as opposed to the
development of amulti-family dwelling on a single lot (i.e. apartments).
Subdivision Design: The applicant is requesting approval of a Tentative Parcel Map to subdivide
the property into four residential lots and one common lot. The common lot would consist of a
common access driveway, shared parking spaces and landscaping.
Staff Report -Planning Commission Meeting of February 10, 2004
PLN2002-138/139/140/141-1396 W. Latimer Avenue
Page 4
A condition of approval has been added that requires the applicant to submit a draft copy of the
Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) which provide for the formation of a
homeowner's association to ensure the long-term maintenance of the common access driveway,
shared parking spaces and landscaping. The draft CC&R's shall be submitted prior to
recordation of the Parcel Map, for review and approval by the Community Development Director
and City Attorney.
Site Plan: The site plan proposes the construction of four townhomes, two detached units
towards West Latimer Avenue frontage and a duet at the rear of the property. All of the
residences take vehicular access from West Latimer Avenue via a 20-foot wide common
driveway running along the eastern property line. The northern elevation of the first unit faces
West Latimer Avenue has an entryway that is oriented towards the street and is set back a
minimum of 15 feet from the street property line. Side and rear yard setbacks for the proposed
residences range from 5 to 10 feet. The site plan reflects changes recommended by the Site and
Architectural Review Committee to increase landscaping and provide tandem parking spaces in
front of the rear unit garages.
Architecture: The proposed townhouse development will consist of three two-one half story
buildings. The buildings would have a mixture of wood siding and stucco exteriors with
weathered edge veneer and brick wainscoting around the base of the buildings. The third level of
townhomes accommodate bedrooms under a gable roof area. The buildings utilize gabled roof
forms and projecting eaves to provide a residential scale to the project. The elevations are
accented with shutters, porches and trellises to enhance the residential scale of the buildings.
Roofing is shown as an Elk Prestique composition shingle.
The proposed exterior paint colors consist of a complimentary combination of sage, taupe and
gray wall colors with off-white trim and accent features. The color scheme creates an individual
appearance for each building. The Site and Architectural Review Committee recommended a
more traditional and subdued color palette. Staff has recommended a condition of approval
addressing the provision of specific color samples at the time of building permit submittals.
Oven Space: Private open space would be provided for each unit by a private rear yard area that
is enclosed by a wood fence. The rear yard areas have a minimum depth of five feet and a width
ranging from 24.5 feet to 49 feet. Private yard areas range from 333 square feet to 395 square
feet. Common open space is provided at and along the common driveway and adjacent to the
front porches of units 1, 3 and 4.
There is no specific open space requirement for townhomes or residential developments in the
Planned Development Zoning District. However, the most comparable open space requirement
is for condominiums, which requires S00 square feet per dwelling unit. The site plan indicates
that 32.5 percent of the project will be landscaped or 871 square feet per unit. Single-family
residences, which are on parcels at least 6,000 square feet in size, must provide 750 square feet
of open space. Staff finds that the proposed open space area is sufficient for this type of
residential development.

Driveways and Parking Areas: The proposed plans indicate the installation of decorative paving
in front of garages and trellis structures over the open parking spaces. These improvements
enhance the appearance of the project and the paved areas of the development.
The applicant has submitted a revised site plan reconfiguring the reaz parking azea as discussed
by the Site and Architectural Review Committee. This revised plan improves the landscape areas
in front of unit 3 and 4.
Landscapin rees: The conceptual landscape plan shows shrubs and landscaping along the east
side of the property along the common driveway; shrubs, ground cover and trees in the
landscaped area along the frontage and front yards; and shrubs and groundcover in front of all
the units and surrounding the uncovered parking spaces. The proposed landscaping represents
32.5% of the total lot area.
The applicant is proposing to remove one tree that is 36 inch and protected under the City's Tree
Protection Regulations. The 36-inch diameter Black Walnut tree must be removed to
accommodate the new buildings.
An arborist report was prepared for this project by a Certified Arborist and is attached to this
report as Attachment #9. The landscape plan indicates the provision of two required 36-inch box
replacement trees.
The conditions of approval require the applicant to submit a detailed landscape plan that shows
the required landscaping and replacement trees prior to the issuance of building permits.
Parkin: The Parking and Loading Ordinance requires three and one half parking spaces per unit,
one of which must be covered. Therefore, the proposed four-unit townhome development
requires 14 off-street parking spaces, four of which must be covered. The site plan provides a
total of 14 parking spaces, six covered and eight uncovered.
Site and Architectural Review Committee: The Site and Architectural Review Committee
reviewed this application at its meeting of December 9, 2003 and January 27, 2004. The
Committee was generally supportive of the revised project design. The Committee had concerns
regarding the following:
1) Building colors and
2) The window sill and trim details
The Committee recommended that the applicant pursue further refinements of the project design
in terms of building colors and window details for the Planning Commission's consideration.

FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF FILE NO PLN2002-138
(ZONE CHANGE)
SITE ADDRESS: 1396 W. Latimer Avenue
APPLICANT: Timothy Oldham
P.C. MEETING: February 10, 2004
Findings for the Plannine Commission to recommend that the City Council approve a Zone
Change from R-2-S (Multiple Family Residential) to P-D (Planned Development) on property
located at 1396 W. Latimer Avenue.
The Planning Commission finds as follows with regard to File No. PLN2002-138:
1. The proposed P-D zoning designation is consistent with the current Medium Density
Residential (14-20 units per gross acre) General Plan land use designation for the property.
2. The proposed density of 12.9 units per gross acre is less than the maximum allowed density
range of 14-20 units per gross acre permitted in the Medium Density Residential General
Plan land use designation.
3. Under the R-2-S zoning designation, a 5 unit multi-family dwelling could be constructed on
the project site, if all other development standards could be met (i.e. setbacks, parking, etc.).
4. The zoning designation change from R-2-S to P-D does not affect the maximum density
range allowed for the property.
5. The zoning designation change from R-2-S to P-D allows for the separate ownership of units
as opposed to the development of amulti-family dwelling on a single lot (i.e. apartments).
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
1. The proposed development and uses will clearly result in a more desirable environment and
use of the land than would be possible under any other zoning classification.
2. The development and uses will be compatible with the General Plan of the City and will aid
in the harmonious development of the immediate area.
3. The proposed development will not result in allowing more residential units than would be
allowed by other residential zoning districts which are consistent with the recommended
General Plan land use designation of the property.
4. The proposed zoning classification change will not be detrimental to the health, safety or
welfare of the neighborhood or the City as a whole.
5. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the conditions of
approval and the impacts of the project.
Attachment #1
Page 2 of 2
6. There is a reasonable relationship between the use of the fees imposed upon the project and
the type of development project.
7. No substantial evidence has been presented from which a reasonable argument could be
made that shows that the project, as currently presented and subject to the required conditions
of approval, will have a significant adverse impact on the environment.

(TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP)
SITE ADDRESS: 1396 W. Latimer Avenue
APPLICANT: Timothy Oldham
P.C. MEETING: February 10, 2004
Findings for the Planning Commission to recommend that the Citv Council approve a Tentative
Parcel Man to create four residential lots and one common lot on property located at 1396 W
Latimer Avenue.
The Planning Commission finds as follows with regard to File No. PLN2002-139:
1. The proposed creation of four residential lots and one common lot is consistent with the
Medium Density Residential (14-20 units per gross acre) General Plan land use designation
for the property.
2. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map is consistent with the Planned Development Zoning
Ordinance.
3. The provisions of the Covenants Conditions and Restrictions are necessary to ensure the
long-term maintenance of the common access driveway, shared parking area and
landscaping.
4. The Tentative Parcel Map has been distributed to local agencies, including Pacific Gas and
Electric, West Valley Sanitation District, Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority and
the Santa Clara Valley Water District. None of these agencies raised any concerns about
providing services to the proposed lots.

FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF FILE NO PLN2002-141
(TREE REMOVAL PERMIT)
SITE ADDRESS: 1396 W. Latimer Avenue
APPLICANT: Timothy Oldham
P.C. MEETING: February 10, 2004
Findines for the Planning Commission to recommend that the City Council approve a Tree
Removal Permit to allow the removal of one Black Walnut tree on property located at 1396 W
Latimer Avenue.
The Planning Commission finds as follows with regard to File No. PLN2002-141:
The proposed Tree Removal Permit is consistent with the Medium Density Residential (14-
20 units per gross acre) General Plan land use designation and P-D (Planned-Development)
Zoning District.
2. The project will allow the removal of one protected tree (one 36-inch diameter Black Walnut
tree) because it would prohibit the construction of the new buildings due to its central
location.
The two proposed 36-inch box replacement trees are in excessive of the tree replacement
requirements of the Tree Protection Regulations.
4. The proposed replacement trees will be a sufficient replacement for the trees to be removed
and will continue the diversity of tree species found in the community.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
1. The retention of the trees restricts the economic enjoyment of the property and creates an
unusual hardship for the property owner by severely limiting the use of the property in a
manner not typically experienced by owners of similarly zoned and situated properties, and
the applicant has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Planning Commission that there are
no reasonable alternatives to preserve the trees.
2. No substantial evidence has been presented from which a reasonable argument could be
made that shows that the project, as currently presented and subject to the required conditions
of approval, will have a significant adverse impact on the environment.
3. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the conditions of
approval and the impacts of the project.
