Commissioner Vierhus explained that the project had no plans for converting
the building to look like an office.
Mr. Kee added that with the exception of a trellis walkway, which would give
an indication of a public walkway, there were no other plans for converting
the appearance of the residence.
Commissioner Campos noted that the Staff Comment Sheet states that staff is
recommending denial and wanted to know what had transpired since then to
change the staff's opinion on this item.
Mr. Kee explained that the staff recommendation of denial was based on past
actions of the Planning Commission, and the present Zoning Code which requires
the appearance of residential buildings to be changed so that the structure
looks like an office building. The Planning Commission, at the last meeting,
recommended that the City Council adopt a text amendment which would remove
this requirement. Because of this text amendment, staff is now recommending
approval of this conversion.

to speak for or against this project.
Mr. Phil E. Baker, applicant for the project, appeared before the Commission
to inform the Commission that he is in agreement to all the conditions specified.

the building to look like an office without changing the entire structure.
He felt that some residences are better off left alone.

residential conversions. She noted that the interior design would be
renovated so that it could be used for office use only.

to P-D (Planned Development/Medium Density Residential),
and (2) approval of plans, elevations, and development
schedule to allow construction of seven townhomes on
property known as 257 W. Rincon Avenue.

item at the Site and Architectural Review Committee meeting this morning and

seven to six and the layout was reversed on the lot. The applicant was
directed to go back and rework the design and submit revised plans to the Site
and Architectural Review Commitee. The applicant was agreeable to the continuance.
Chairman Pack asked Mr. Kee if he felt that this type of project was too high
in density for the proposed lot.

but based upon the present plans he was not sure what density the applicant
would be able to retain.

could review the revised plans. She commented to the Commission that her
backyard will face the driveways of the proposed development and wanted to

six-foot high fence.
Chairman Pack wanted to make sure that the Site and Architectural Review
Committee looked at the revised plans very carefully.
Mr. Zawalski of 121 S. Milton addressed the Commission in opposition to the
project. He felt that unless the architectural design was a bit more "fancy"
the development would look like army barracks and would be an eyesore in
Campbell. He also wanted to comment on the trash bins that are left in the
middle of Rincon Avenue due to the construction.
Mr. Kee stated that the trash bins are in the street only during construction
and should be removed when it is completed.
