RESOLUTION NO. 100
OF THE DESIGN REVIEW COMMITTEE OF THE CITY OF CUPERTINO APPROVING AN

SECTION II: FINDINGS
WHEREAS, the necessary public notices have been given in accordance with the Procedural
Ordinance of the City of Cupertino, and the Design Review Committee has held one or more
public hearings on this matter; and
WHEREAS, the applicant has met the burden of proof required to support said application;
and has not satisfied the following requirements:
1. The literal enforcement of this chapter does result in restrictions inconsistent with the
spirit and intent of this chapter, as the proposed design is single story with compatible
wall heights that is sensitive to the existing neighborhood.
2. The granting of the exception will not result in a condition that is materially
detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, as the design will have negligible
impacts on neighboring properties despite the reduction in setback.
3. The exception to be granted is one that will require the least modification of the
prescribed design regulation and the minimum variance that will accomplish the
purpose, as the project conforms to all other sections of the Municipal Code and the
reduced setback would be allowed if the lot area were 1.1 % smaller.
4. The proposed exception will not result in significant visual impacts as viewed from
abutting properties, as the design is single-story with wall heights that are sensitive to
neighboring homes.
