Commissioner Campos reported that the Architectural Review Committee had
discussed this application at length. They felt the Commission should be
aware of the fact that there are a number of driveways for ingress and
egress.
Mr. Kee stated that staff had recommended approval of the site layout.
He called to the Commission's attention that there were four proposed
driveways onto Division Street; and eight driveways within 700 feet because
of neighboring properties' driveways. Staff had suggested that perhaps
parking spaces could be eliminated in order to provide more landscaping
in the front of the lot.
-3-
Commissioner Hebard inquired if the City had an existing agreement: with
the City of Los Gatos for the improvement of Pollard Road at such time
that it extends to Division Street.
Mr. Helms replied that only six feet of Pollard Road would be in the City
of Campbell and the balance would be in Los Gatos. He indicated that the
six feet is behind the curb line and would be an easement for utility
purposes only. He mentioned that at the present time we do not have an
agreement with Los Gatos.
Commissioner Hebard inquired if this application had been forwarded to
Los Gatos for their comments.
Mr. Helms replied that it had not been sent to Los Gatos, but that it
was essentially the same as the last application in this area which had
been sent to Los Gatos.
Commissioner Pack inquired if there were any provisions for driveways
onto Pollard.
Mr. Kee indicated that none were planned at this time.
Commissioner Pack asked how that would be handled if that were to become
a street.
Mr. Kee stated that there would need to be a revision to these plans.
Commissioner Hebard inquired if the property to the east had dedicated
the necessary right of way for Pollard Road to the City of Los Gatos.
Mr. ..Helms replied that at the time the property was developed, an agree-
ment had been entered into for the necessary right of way; however, since
that time, the agreement has expired.

following conditions, as recommended by staff, and added Condition No. 8

Mr. Kee explained that this application was for approval of a sign and
graphics to be painted on the front of a beauty shop. The Sign Advisor
has recommended approval of this application. The Sign Review Committee,
lacking a quorum, has referred this item to the Planning Commission.
The applicant, Jean Ann Williams, of 210 East Rincon, presented the Commission
with a colored sketch of the sign.
Commissioner Campos reported that the Architectural-Review Committee recommends
approval of this application.
Commissioner Pack inquired if this would be a painting on the window.
Mr. Kee replied that it would be a painting on the building.
Commissioner Lubeckis wondered if this is a logo or a painting.
The applicant responded that this is not a logo, but it is a painting.
Much discussion regarding signs ensued.
Commissioner Samuelson stated that as the only member of the Sign Review
Committee present at the time this sign was reviewed, he personally had
some reservation about the graphics.
-6-
Mr. Conrad Baumgartner of 233 East Rincon wanted to know the difference
between this sign and the water tower, and expressed his concern that the
water tower is much more of an eyesore than this sign would be.
Mr. Kee explained that the water tower is not a sign and that the question
of the water tower was not before the Commission tonight.
Commissioner Hebard moved that S.A. 77-47 be referred back to the Sign
Review Committe, seconded by Commissioner Campos, and carried with

Commissioner Campos reported that the applicant had met with staff and the
Architectural Review Committee this morning, and had submitted revised plans.
The Architectural Advisor is of the opinion that the plans are good, and
recommends approval subject to the conditions recommended by staff and one
additonal condition that the screening to be placed in front of the building
come back to staff for review and approval.
Mr. Kee stated that staff also recommends approval of the revised plans with
the added condition regarding the screening. He stated that the Architectural
Advisor had some concern about the proposed screening in that it might warp;
he wanted to make certain that there would be adequate, workable screening.

Wells Fargo Bank and Wells Fargo Bank fora use permit and approval
of plans to expand an existing parking lot located
on property known as 200 East Campbell Avenue in a
P-D (Planned Development/Commercial) Zoning District.
Commissioner Campos reported that the applicant had met with the Architectural

an improvement of the area, and recommends approval.
Mr. Kee explained that this application is for expansion of the existing
parking lot at Wells Fargo Bank. It will provide for compact car parking

Z.C. 77-16 This is the time and place for public hearing to
Brennan, B. J. consider the application of Mr. Bruce J. Brennan _
Charles Davidson and the Charles W. Davidson Company, on behalf of
Company Mr. William J. Schworer, Jr., and Great American
Homes, for: (1) a change of zoning from R-M
(Multiple Family Residential) to P-D (Planned
Development/Low-Medium Density Residential), and
(2) approval of plans, elevations, and development
schedule to allow construction of 40 townhouse units
on property known as 1275 Pollard Road.
Mr. Kee explained that the applicant is requesting a change of zoning for
a 4.9 acre site from R-M to P-D in order to construct 40 townhomes as a
duplex-style development. The zone change would allow separate ownership
of each unit rather than ownership of a duplex structure. The proposed
zone change is consistent with the Land Use Element of the General Plan.
Chairman Dickson declared the public hearing open on this zone change and
invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this item.
Mr. Tim Bailey of 1206 Audrey appeared before the Commission. He stated
that his property is adjacent to the subject property, and the neighbors
in that area would like to see this property developed as a low residential
use rather than apartments or condominiums. He felt this development would
create problems of noise, lighting, etc.
Mr. Kee stated that this use is more in line with a duplex kind of density
rather than apartments.
Mr. Bailey indicated that he would like a closer look at the plans.
Chairman Dickson called for a short recess at 8:50 p.m. in order that the
people in the audience might have an opportunity to have a closer look at
the plans.
The meeting reconvened at 9:10 p.m.
Ms. Madge Overhouse of 885 Pollard Road, Los Gatos, appeared before the
Commission. She stated that she was pleased to learn that the present
proposed development would include only 40 units, rather than the 63 it
might be able to develop under the present zoning.
Mr. Bill Schworer appeared before the Commission to give a full report
on his proposed project.
No one else wishing to be heard on the matter of the zone change portion
of this application, Commissioner Vierhus moved that the public hearing
be closed. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Hebard, and unanimously
adopted.
-g-
RESOLUTION 1649 Commissioner Hebard moved that the Planning
Commission adopt Resolution No. 1649 recommending
that the City Council adopt an ordinance approving
a change of zoning from R-M (Multiple Family
Residential) to P-D (Planned Development/Low Medium
Density Residential) for property known as 1275
Pollard Road; seconded by Commissioner Vierhus.
Commissioner Pack requested that the record indicate that she would be
voting on this application (both items) with the advice of the City Attorney.
AYES: Commissioners: Hebard, Campos, Vierhus, Pack, Samuelson,
Lubeckis, Dickson
NOES: Commissioners: None
ABSENT: Commissioners: None
At this time Chairman Dickson called fora report on the Development Plan
portion of this application.
Commissioner Campos reported that the applicant had met with the Architectural
Review Committee and staff this morning to discuss this application. He
stated that the proposed development is more than adequate than the require-
ments call for. The Committee had only one concern and that was regarding
the two units which back up to Pollard Road. There might be a traffic
problem; therefore, the Committee recommends that revised plans for these
two units be submitted to the Planning Director for approval prior to
construction.
Mr. Kee stated that staff is in agreement, and that the applicant has
agreed to redesign the two units in question.
Commissioner Vierhus moved that Resolution No. 1649 be amended to include
plans, elevations, .and development schedule to allow construction of 40
townhouse units on property known as 1275 Pollard Road be approved subject
to the following staff conditions and added condition No. 4, which provides

PD 77-20 This is the time and place for public hearing
Central 93 to consider the application of Mr. William
Associates H. tlct_aughlin and the Central 93 Associates for:
(1) approval of revised usage of an existing
commercial development, (2) a revised parking
design, and (3) plans, elevations, and development
schedule to allow construction of a two-story
parking structure located on property known as
33 and 93 S. Central Avenue in a P-D (Planned
Development/Commercial) Zoning District.
Mr. Kee stated that this item should not be confused with the item coming
before the City Council on a parking district for this area. He stated
that at the present time there is some inconsistency as to what areas
are being used in the approved plans. Staff is recommending approval
subject to the conditions recommended by staff.
Commissioner Hebard inquired if this item had come before the Architectural
Review Committee this morning.
Mr. Kee replied that since the plans and elevations remain the same only
the parking structure plans and elevations will be submitted to the
Architectural Review Committee and Commission when they are complete. He
explained that what is before the Commission this evening is the concept
of a second level of parking and the parking areas to the south of the
property. He stated that it is the Commission's prerogative to continue
this item, what we are trying to do at this time is update the plans.
Commissioner Campos inquired if there was a time frame within which to
work.
Mr. Kee stated that staff had been trying for about a year to straighten
this matter out.
Commissioner Hebard noted the conditions recommended by staff. He stated
he felt they were pretty harsh.
Mr. Kee noted that according to staff calculations, approximately 41 percent
of the floor area is allocated to food and beverage which is an extremely
high percentage of very intense use. Staff is making a recommendation
consistent with other restaurants in the city.
Chairman Dickson declared the public hearing open and invited anyone in
the audience to speak for or against this item.
Mr. Conrad Baumgartner of 233 E. Campbell appeared before the Commission.
He brought to the Commission's attention the problems of noise, litter,
traffic, and parking in the area of the Factory. He stated that these
problems had been reported to the City Manager and Police Chief in the past.
_ 12_
Mr. Jim Baumgartner of 233 E. Rincon also appeared before the Commission
to bring to their attention the problems of parking, noise, and titter.
Mr. Larry Backstrom of 253 E. Rincon appeared before the Commission to
state that he did not feel the increase of parking spaces was going to
alleviate other problems the area is now having.
Mr. Jim Lyle of 73 S. First Street, representing the owner stated that
he would like to discuss certain areas of the Staff Comment Sheet with
the Commission. He indicated that Central 93 recognized the fact that
41 percent of floor area for food and beverage was quite enough. He
wanted a clarification of Condition No. 2 in the Staff Comment Sheet
as to whether this meant a change of use or a new owner.
Mr. Kee stated that it would mean a change of occupancy; a change of one
tenant to another.
Mr. Lyle stated that Central g3 is willing to rectify some of the problems
and provide additional parking. They agree to a "no increase" in restaurants
for the Factory. He feels the nighttime parking is the problem area. He
stated that he felt these conditions were pretty harsh, especially since
the daytime retail stores would not be generating parking during the evening
hours. He felt that if some reasonable agreement couldn't be reached, he
would like this item to be continued in order that he could have an opportunity
to discuss this further with the staff.
Commissioner Pack stated that possibly some consideration might be given
to businesses which might be open only during the day.
Mr. Lyle stated that these parking requirements go on the assumption that
the Factory is in full operating use, and so far that has never happened.
He stated that he believed the original P-D called for 182 square feet
and was somewhat surprised to see 110 square feet. He felt that 63 spaces
was not that far out of line.
Mr. Kee stated that he would like to state to the Commission for the record
that since the original site plans were submitted no other plan has been
submitted. The current uses are not in conformance with the original plan.
Commissioner Hebard stated that there certainly is a problem, but felt
that we should begin to solve this problem by starting out today, not two
years ago. He felt that three points should be noted: (1) the owners
are proposing a parking structure, which may or may not be a solution
(2) it is recognized that there is a problem of parking at night, but there
is little as a Planning Commission that we can do about this; we can only
put a limit on this so it won't get any worse, and (3) there is room for
more activity during the daytime hours.
He stated that possibly Condition No. 2 could be modified to allow additional _
tenants during the daytime hours, but that this would have to be cleared with
the Planning Director.
-13-
Mr. Kee stated that from the staff's point of view the problem would
lie in enforcement.
Much discussion ensued about the Factory and the conditions which might
be imposed.
Commissioner Vierhus moved that this item be continued to the meeting of
December 20, 1977, seconded by Commissioner Pack, and unanimously carried.
Chairman Dickson asked staff to bring the problem areas of noise, litter,
etc. to the attention of the City Manager and Police Chief so that appro-
priate action might be taken to alleviate some of the problems.
PD 77-27 This is the time and place for public hearing to
Paulson, J. consider the application of Mr. Jack Paulson for
approval of plans, elevations, and development
schedule to allow construction of six townhouse
apartment units and an owner's unit on property

Development/Medium Density Residential) Zoning
District.
Commissioner Campos reported that the applicant had met with staff and
the Architectural Review Committee. The Committee recommends approval;
however, the Architectural Advisor had comments regarding the front
elevation and requested that it be revised and come back to staff after
revision.
Mr. Kee stated that staff is recommending approval subject to the conditions
recommended by staff and that the front elevation be brought back to staff
and worked through the Architectural Advisor.
Chairman Dickson declared the public hearing open and invited anyone in
the audience to speak for or against this item.
No one wishing to be heard, Commissioner Hebard moved that the public
hearing be closed. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Lubeckis,
and unanimously adopted.
RESOLUTION 1650 Commissioner Hebard moved that the Planning
Commission adopt Resolution No. 1650 recommending
approval of plans, elevations, and development
schedule to allow construction of six townhouse
apartment units and an owner's unit on property
known as 540 W. Campbell Avenue in a P-D (Planned
Development/Medium Density Residential) Zoning
District, seconded by Commissioner Lubeckis.
Commissioner Pack stated that she will be voting on this item. She stated
for the record that the architectural firm is a client of her husband's
business, although they have not been connected with this application,
and according to the City Attorney she can vote on this.

MISCELLANEOUS
Staff Report Request of Mr. John T. Bliss
Mr, Kee stated that staff had received an inquiry from 11 r. Bliss asking
if photo studios and film processing labs are allowed uses in a P-0
(Professional Office) Zoning District.
Chairman Dickson asked if this meets the Fire Code.
Mr. Kee responded that it does, and it also meets the Building Code.
Commissioner Vierhus moved that photo studios and film processing labs
be allowed uses in a P-0 (Professional Office) Zoning District, seconded
by Commissioner Pack, and unanimously carried.
At this time, the Commission decided to discuss Item No. 12 on the agenda

waiting for that item to be discussed.
Staff Report Environmental Impact Report - Consultant
Mr. Kee stated that staff had received a letter from the firm "ENVIROS"
requesting that they be placed on the City of Campbell's approved consultant
list for the preparation of Environmental Impact Reports. He stated there
a.re currently five consultants on the approved list.
Commissioner Vierhus moved that "ENVIROS" be added to the current list of
approved consultants for preparation of Environmental Impact Reports,
seconded by Commissioner Hebard, and carried, with Commissioner Pack
abstaining.
PUBLIC HEARING

Open Space Element of the General Plan and its possible relationship
to the West Valley College Site.
Commissioner Pack mentioned that the Council had voted to approve
the expenditure of a good portion of the HCD funds to go toward the
possible purchase of this site.
