Mr. Kee responded that this project is proposed to be developed at a density of 12.6 units per gross acre, which would be consistent with the density range of 6-13 units per gross acre as shown on the Land Use Element of the General Plan. Chairman Kasolas then noted that on page 11 of the minutes under S 80-12 the density of that project had not been noted, and requested that the information be provided before reconsidera- tion of ZC 81-17, Item No. 5, on this evening's agenda. He further noted that the density of each project should be included in the minutes; for projects being considered for the first time, as well as reinstatement of projects. Commissioner Campos then moved that the minutes of the regular Planning Commission meeting of June 2, 1981 be approved as clarified, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and adopted with Commissioner Pack abstaining since she was not present at that meeting. COMMUNICATIONS Chairman Kasolas noted that items of communication relate to specific items on the agenda and would be considered at that time. *** -2- CONSENT CALENDAR TS 81-13 Tentative Subdivision Map: Lands of Sparks Sparks Construction Construction Co. APN 305-28-10 & 11 Company (139 Dot Avenue). Mr. Kee reported that this item is directly related to the application of Mr. Robert Kadjevich (PD 81-03) for approval of a planned development permit to allow the construction of ten town homes on properties known as 115 & 139 Dot Avenue. Condition Q of that approval requires the applicant to file and process a tract map. He noted the applicant has submitted a tentative subdivision map at this time to satisfy this condition. The proposed map would allow the development of ten townhomes or 15.1 units per gross acre. The project density is con- sistent with the General Plan density of 14-20 units per gross acre as shown for this area. He further noted that Staff is recommending approval of this tentative subdivision map. Commissioner Pack then moved that TS 81-13 be recommended for approval to the City Council as advised by Staff subject to the conditions listed in the Staff Comment Sheet, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and unanimously adopted. *** S 79-19 Request of Mr. Marvin A. Bamburg for an extension Bamburg, M, of previously approved plans to construct 52 condominium units on property known as 3595 S. Bascom Avenue in an R-3-S (Multiple Family/ High Density Residential) Zoning District. Commissioner Dickson stated he felt this extension should first go before the Site and Architectural Review Committee before a decision is made by the Planning Commission since there have been changes in thinking regarding parking, open space, etc. Mr. Kee noted that the plans are displayed for the Commission's review, and the Staff is recommending approval of this extension; there have been no changes in so far as the General Plan or Zoning are concerned. Commissioner Pack inquired if there would be any effect on time schedules or fees should this be continued. Mr. Kee explained that there would be no additional fees; the only drawback would be that it would take another three weeks before the extension could be approved. Mr. Sam Maslesa, applicant, appeared before the Commission to answer any questions they might have. No one. having any questions, Commissioner Dickson moved that this item be continued to the July 7 Planning Commission meeting in order that the plans could be reviewed by the Site and Architectural Review Committee, seconded -3- by Commissioner Campos. This motion failed by a 2-3 vote. (Commissioners Dickson and Campos voting for the motion, and Commissioners Pack, Meyer and Kasolas against the motion.) Commissioner Meyer then moved that the Planning Commission approve an extension of previously approved plans to construct 52 condominiums units at 3595 S. Bascom Avenue, seconded by Commissioner Pack and adopted with Commissioner Dickson voting "no". *** At this time discussion ensued regarding referring reinstatement and extension of approved plans to the Site and Architectural Review Committee. It was the consensus of the Commission that in the future all reinstatements and extensions be referred to the Site and Architectural Review Committee. *** ARCHITECTURAL APPROVALS S 81-17 Continued application of Mr. H. Rubenstein for Rubinstein, H. approval of plans and elevations to allow con- struction of a professional office building on property known as 42 W. Campbell Avenue in a P-0 (Professional Office) Zoning District. Mr. Kee reported that the applicant has requested a continuance of this application to the Planning Commission meeting of July 21, 1981. Commissioner Campos then moved that the Planning Commission continue S 81-17 to the Planning Commission meeting of July 21, 1981 at the request of the applicant, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and unanimously adopted. PUBLIC HEARINGS PD 81-06 This is the time and place fora continued Capitola Knolls public hearing to consider the application of Mr. Ron Troyon on behalf of Capitola Knolls Investors fora planned development and approval of plans, elevations and development schedule to allow the construction of a 56,000 square foot office building on property known as 901 Campisi 41ay in a P-D (Planned Development/Commercial) Zoning District. Mr. Kee reported that all concerns noted in the Staff Comment Sheet had been addressed, except for Condition No. 5. He noted that Staff is in a position to recommend approval of this project at this time. Commissioner Meyer reported that the applicant had met with the Site and Architectural Review Committee this morning, and the Committee is recommending approval of the plans as redlined. She noted that all the concerns listed in the Staff Comment Sheet had been addressed; and regarding Item No. 5, the Committee felt that it was a matter of opinion between architects. The -4- Architectural Advisor had suggested a 3-4 foot overhang, however the applicant's architect felt strongly that the building should be con- structed as submitted. The Committee is also recommending that the plans be approved as submitted. Commissioner Campos inquired about the trash enclosures. Commission Meyer responded that all trash enclosures will be out of site and enclosed. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this item. Mr. Max Rouzier, architect, explained that in his opinion changing the roof line would detract from the plans as presented, and felt that it did not affect the aesthetics of the building. He also felt that this is a purely personal expression and would like to keep the overhang as it was submitted. No one else wishing to speak, Commissioner Meyer moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Campos and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2014 Commissioner Meyer moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2014 approving the application of Mr. Ron Troyon for construction of a 56,000 square foot office building on property known as 901 Campisi Way in a P-D (Planned Develop- ment/Commercial) Zoning District subject to the conditions listed in the Staff Comment Sheet and as redlined. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Pack and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Pack, Campos, Meyer, Dickson, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: None ABSENT: Commissioners: Kotowski, Fairbanks At this time Commissioner Pack inquired about the review by the Los Gatos Creek Committee. Mr. Kee responded that the Committee would review this application and forward its comments on to the City Council. Those comments would be considered along with the recommendation of the Planning Commission. *** ZC 81-17 This is the time and place for a continued Creative Design public hearing to consider the application of Creative Design Co. fora zone change from R-M (Multiple Family Residential) to P-D (Planned Development) and approval of plans, elevations, and development schedule to allow construction of 7 townhomes on property known as 75 Shelley Avenue in an R-M (P~ultiple Family Residential) Zoning District. At this time Mr. Kee reported that in response to the Chair's earlier question regarding the density of the development at 60 Shelley Avenue (S 80-12), the -5- application submitted proposed a density of 9.7 units per gross acre; the maximum allowed would be up to 13 units per gross acre. Mr. Kee then stated that Staff is recommending approval of this application subject to the conditions listed in the Staff Comment Sheet. He noted that this project is proposed to be developed at a density of 12.6 units per gross acre, which would be consistent with the density range of 6-13 units per gross acre as shown on the Land Use Element of the General Plan. Engineering Manager Helms then made a presentation on uhiteoaks Road, covering concerns expressed by the Commission at its last meeting. He noted that the Engineering Staff has reviewed the area for traffic accidents and traffic volumes, and prevailing traffic speeds. He displayed an aerial photo to reacquaint the Commission with this area. He noted that Whiteoaks Road is shown on the Circulation Element of the General Plan as a Class I Collector street, which is projected to carry from 3,500 to 12,000 vehicles per day; this would be a similar classification to Union Avenue, Budd Avenue and Harriet Avenue. He further noted that the Circulation Element indicates how the commute traffic moves through the community. He reported that the average daily traffic in the northbound direction between Redding and Camden is approximately 5,600 vehicles per day; in the southerly direction it is 3,600 vehicles per day. Further down Whiteoaks, near Woodard, the average daily traffic in the southerly direction is 3,600 vehicles per day, and in the northbound direction it is 3,200 vehicles per day. He then reviewed the criteria warranting installation of traffic controls, which is set by CALTRANS. He noted that this area does not warrant traffic controls at this time; however, the Public Works Department will be reviewing this area in the next few months to determine if further controls are warranted. He then reviewed the radar speed surveys performed in this area. He noted that the prevailing speeds are somewhat higher than what had been hoped for. The median speed is approximately 35 m.p.h., and currently the speed limit is 30 m.p.h. from Camden to Redding along Whiteoaks. He then reviewed the criteria used by the State to determine speeds. Once again, Mr. Helms noted that there has not been sufficient time to fully conclude what recommendations will be made for this area, however additional speed counts will be taken in the future months, and recommendations will be forwarded to the City Council if warranted. Chairman Kasolas then opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this item. Mr. Norm Galicia, applicant, appeared before the Commission to note that all requirements of this approval have been met. He recommended not allowing left-hand turns at Bascom and !dhiteoaks. Engineering Manager Helms stated that the turning movements had not yet been counted at that intersection. Mr. Farmer of 1689 Whiteoaks Road appeared to express concern about the traffic problems on ldhiteoaks. He is opposed to any increase in density. Mr. Bill Wells of 1710 !dhiteoaks also spoke about the traffic problems on Whiteoaks, noting it is mostly caused by commuters from Los Gatos. Mr. Skovernik of 135 Redding Road complained that the traffic being generated is caused by commuters, not people living in the units developed in this area. -6- Holly Rice of 1700 Whiteoaks agreed that additional studies need to be made in order to come up with some alternatives for this area. She then inquired about the P-D Zoning. Mr. Kee stated that the change of zoning would not allow any higher density than is already allowed. P~1r. Frank Spivey of 1700 Whiteoaks spoke against high density in this area. Mr. Al McLintock of 123 Redding Road stated he felt the proposed development would not add that much to the existing traffic problem. _ Mr. Bill Brown of 104 Redding Road also spoke regarding the traffic problems and high density of :this area. Mr. Jim Billmaier of 60 Shelley Avenue spoke for this project, noting he would not mind having it constructed adjacent to his property. No one else wishing to speak, Commissioner Meyer moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Pack and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2015 Commissioner Meyer moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2015 recommending approval of a zone change from R-M (Multiple Family) to P-D (Planned Development) for property known as 75 Shelley Avenue, seconded by Commissioner Pack and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Pack, Campos, Meyer, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: Dickson ABSENT: Commissioners: Kotowski, Fairbanks RESOLUTION N0. 2016 Commissioner Meyer moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2016 recommending approval of plans, elevations, and development schedule to allow construction of 7 townhomes on property known as 75 Shelley Avenue, seconded by Commissioner Pack and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Pack, Campos, Meyer, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: Dickson Absent: Commissioners: Kotowski., Fairbanks Commissioner Dickson noted that the Council has adopted guidelines to follow regarding lowering densities for projects. He felt this project is proposed at the -high end of the density range, which is not in accord with the Council guidelines. MISCELLANEOUS TS 81-12 Tentative Subdivision Map: Lands of Crestmark Crestmark. Homes Homes II. APN 413-25-17 (75 Shelley Avenue) Mr. Kee reported that this tentative map is directly related to the previous item on this evening's agenda (ZC 81-17).

Central Avenue. Mr. Kee reported that at its meetings of May 12, 1981 the Historic Preservation Board adopted Resolution No. 6 recommending designation of the "Genasci House" as an Historic Landmark. The application for recommended designation of this single family dwelling was initiated by the Civic Improvement Commission and was unanimously adopted by the Historic Preservation Board. At this time the Planning Commission should consider a zone change for historic designation as in Section 21.41.100(1) of the Zoning Ordinance which reads: (1) After receiving a recommendation from the Board, the Planning Commission shall hold a public hearing to consider a zone change for historic designation at the earliest next regular meeting... The Staff is of the opinion that the proposed zone change is consistent with the Land Use Element of the General Plan as shown for this area. The continued use of this single-family dwelling as a residence will not disrupt the orderly development of this area. The designation of this property with an Historic Preservation Overlay District will influence future development of this parcel. Prior to additional development or construction on this site, an applicant would have to obtain a special use permit as specified in Section 21.41.120 of the Zoning Ordinance. This requirement does not preclude further develop- ment of the site, however, it provides an additional review of a proposal for development by the Historic Preservation Board. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this application. No one else wishing to speak, Commissioner P4eyer moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Pack and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2017 Commissioner Dickson moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. .2017 recommending that the City Council approve a zone change from R-M-S (Multiple Family Residential) to R-M-S-H (Multiple Family Residential/Historic Overlay) for this property. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Pack and adopted by the following roll call vote: -8- AYES: Commissioners: Pack, Campos, Meyer, Dickson, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: None ABSENT: Commissioners: Kotowski, Fairbanks ZC 81-19 This is the time and place for a public hearing to DuVon, G. consider the application of Mr. Gabor DuVon for a zone change from R-3-S (Multiple Family Residential) to P-D (Planned Development) and approval of plans, elevations, and development schedule to allow con- struction of 46 townhomes on property known as 14301 S. Bascom Avenue in an R-3-S (Multiple Family Residential) Zoning District. Commissioner Meyer reported that the Site and Architectural Review Committee met with the applicant this morning, and the Committee is making the recommenda- tion that this item be continued in order that the concerns of the Committee could be resolved. She noted that the applicant is in agreement with this recommendation. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this application. No one wishing to speak on this item, Commissioner P~eyer moved that the Planning Commission continue this item to its meeting of July 7, 1981, seconded by Commissioner Pack and unanimously adopted. ZC 81-20 This is the time and place fora public hearing to City-initiated consider a City-initiated zone change from C-H (Highway Commercial) to C-2-S (General Commercial) for properties known as 2855 to 2955 S. Winchester Blvd.; 3055 to 3385 S. Winchester Blvd.; 457, 471, 480, 485 Chapman Drive; and 331 W. Hacienda Avenue in a C-H (Highway Commercial) Zoning District. Mr. Stafford gave information on this item, explaining that at its meeting of December 2, 1980, the Planning Commission recommended a zone change from C-H (Highway Commercial) to C-2-S (General Commercial) for those areas currently zoned C-H once the Interim Zone was lifted or expired. The Interim Zone has expired, and therefore, Staff is initiating this zone change. It is noted that approximately 53% of the C-H zoned land is currently used for automotive uses or has automotive uses approved. The areas which are likely to be developed or redeveloped include the vacant lands and the single-family residential lots. Combined, these two uses account for 27% of the area. Staff is of the opinion that there is sufficient justification to replace the C-H District with the C-2-S District for the following reasons: -9- 1. The C-2-S District would permit similar uses, with more control by the Commission in some areas. For example, an auto service center could be considered in the C-2-S District subject to approval of a use permit. In the C-H District, a use permit is not required for this use. 2. The C-2-S District would allow more flexibility with regard to setbacks. The large front yard setback required in the C-H District (45 feet) is conducive to the development of parking areas in the front yard. 3. The five commercial zones which now exist in Campbell (C-1, C-2, C-3, P-D, C-H) are, in the Staff's opinion, repetitious. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this item. No one wishing to speak, Commissioner Pack moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2018 Commissioner Pack moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2018 recommending a zone change from C-H (Highway Commercial) to C-2-S (General Commercial) for properties known as 2855 to 2955 S. Winchester Blvd.; 3055 to 3385 S. Winchester Blvd.; 457, 471, 480, 485 Chapman Drive; and 331 W. Hacienda Avenue in a C-H (Highway Commercial) Zoning District, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Pack, Campos, Meyer, Dickson, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: None ABSENT: Commissioners: Kotowski, Fairbanks *** ZC 81-21 This is the time and place fora public hearing City-initiated to consider the establishment of a P-D (Planned Development) Zoning District for the following properties: 1. 2941-2960 Del Loma Drive (UP 79-24). 2. 1330, 1376, & 1396 W. Hacienda Avenue (UP 79-36). 3. 1201 W. Parr Avenue (UP 80-20). 4. 500, 510, 556 W. Sunnyoaks Avenue (UP 80-16). 5. 1165 & 1169 Smith Avenue (UP 80-30). 6. 1155 Smith Avenue (UP 80-32). Mr. Kee reported that during the period that the Interim Zone was in effect in the San Tomas Area, six use permits were approved which required that once the Interim Zone was lifted the zoning be changed to P-D (Planned Development). He then cited the following information regarding the six use permits: -10- 1. 2941-2960 Del Loma Drive (UP 79-24). Previous Zoning: R-1 Approved for: 13 townhomes Commission Vote: 6-0-1 (Campos absent) 2. 1330, 1376, 1396 W. Hacienda Avenue (UP 79-36). Previous Zoning: R-1 Approved For: 9 lot subdivision Commission Vote: 6-0-0-1 (Kasolas abstaining) 3. 1201 W. Parr Avenue (UP 80-20) Previous Zoning: R-M Approved For: 5 townhomes Commission Vote: 6-1-0 (Dickson voting no) 4. 500, 510, 556 W. Sunnyoaks Avenue (UP 80-16) Previous Zoning: R-M Approved For: 22 townhomes Commission Vote: 5-0-2 (Dickson, Fairbanks absent) 5. 1165 & 1169 Smith Avenue (UP 80-30) Previous Zoning: R-M Approved For: 12 townhomes r Commission Vote: 4-2-1 (Dickson & Fairbanks voting no; Pack absent) 6. 1155 Smith Avenue (UP 80-32) Previous Zoning: R-M Approved For: 6 townhomes ~, Commission Vote: 5-1-1 (Dickson voting no; Fairbanks absent) He further stated that the P-D Zoning is required on five of the projects so as to accommodate townhomes, and on the sixth to accommodate a nine-lot subdivision. However, it should be noted that these projects have already been approved and that the rezoning will not affect their design. The re- zoning to P-D shall only serve to bring the City's zoning map into con- formance with approved projects. Chairman Kasolas then opened the public hearing and invited anyone in .the audience to speak for or against this project. i No one wishing to speak, Commissioner Pack moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and unanimously adopted. Commissioner Dickson explained that on items 3, 4, 5, and 6 he is opposed to those items in that they are proposed to be constructed at the high end of the density range, and he feels this is against Council policy. RESOLUTION N0. 2019 Commissioner Meyer then moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2019 recommending approval of establishment of a P-D (Planned Development) Zoning District for the following properties: 2941-2960 Del Loma Drive (UP 79-24); 1330, 1376, 1396 W. Hacienda Avenue (UP 79-36); 1201 W. Parr (UP 80-10); 500, 510, 556 W. Sunnyoaks Avenue (UP 80-16); 1165 & 1169 Smith Avenue (UP 80-30 ),; 1155 Smith Avenue (UP 80-32).

Mr. Kee reported that the applicant is proposing to construct 5 townhomes on the .29 acre parcel. The project would be developed at a density of 13.8 units per gross acre which is consistent with the Medium Density Residential (14-20 units per gross acre) as shown on the Land Use Element of the General Plan. Development of this project would require removal of an existing single-family dwelling on the property. He then noted that Staff is recommending approval of this application. Commissioner Meyer reported that the applicant had met with the Site and Architectural Review Committee this morning, and the Committee is recommending approval of the plans as redlined. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this application.

Development of this project would require removal of the existing single-family dwelling on the site. He then reported that Staff is recommending approval of this application. Commissioner Meyer reported that the applicant met with the Site and Architectural Review Committee this morning, and the Committee is recommending approval of this plan; however, it is being recommended that the layout be reversed in order to accommodate the single-family residence. She further noted that there is a tree that can be saved by reversing the plans. The Committee is also recommending that the landscape plans come back before the Site and Architectural Review Committee. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this application. No one wishing to speak, Commissioner Pack moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and unanimously adopted.
