9 acres, First reading.
he had received information
Jr.
from
Mr. Rodrigues, P. O. Box 591, Cupertino, applicant, submitted
a letter received from Miller, Norton & Wright. Mayor read
letter stating applicants' intention to dedicate to the
City the property required by the City in order to install
proper traffic control and signalization of Homestead Road
and Highway 9. Mr, Rodrigues stated that the applicants
will have to purchase the lease in order to furnish ease-
ments at the figure discussed by the City. He stated that
if the City is going to go into condemnation proceedings,
applicants will droo negotiations fro the purchase of the
easements. Mr. Rodrigues said that he had learned by a
telephone conversation earlier in the evening that Mobil
Oil was willing to cooperate. The applicants are willing
to buyout Mr, Christiansne's lease holdings, leaving
negotiations between applicants and the City. Councilman
Saich expressed concern about meeting the State's deadline.
City Manager advised that the deadline date is now June 30th.
City Engineer stated that the~e are other properties
involved and that one of the owners has tt:lflned negotiations
over to an attorney. He suggested that the Council
authorize City Attorney to begin eminent domain proceedings.
Councilman Saich felt that the City sould begin proceedings
and inform the State of action taken by the City. Cou=il-
man Lazaneo felt that the first reading should be accom-
plished in order to not delay applica~ion further, and if
condtions are not met, second reading can be postponed.
Councilman Pelosi felt that application should not have
been on Agenda since conditions had not been met. Mr.
Rodrigues stated that to relocate the facility, as a
result of condemnation, would cost about $15,000. He does
not feel that the City is in a position to pay o';t ~15,OOO
but the applicants are willing tp pay $20,000 so that the
City can have the easements for $3,500. Councilman Wilson
stated that the choice of the Council is to cooperate with
Mr. Rodrigues and accept his promise of compliance, which
will cost the City $3,500 if all works well, or disregard
his coopergtion and take the cOurse of eminent domain which
will carry with it court costs, possibly a bill to the City
for the land itself and possibly a $15,000 serverance charge
for moving the pumps at the station. The first reading puts
the City under no obligation and the check point wo,:ld still
be prior to the second reading. Councilm~n Saich requested
that a written statement be presented to the State
Division of Highways. Mr. Rodrigues stated that he would
deliver a statement the following morning for presentation
to the State. Mayor asked City Attorney if written promise
from Mr, Rodrigues would be acceptable, City Attorney
advised that it would do the job if necessary clearances
are received, Mayor stated that State could be given Mr.
Rodrigues' statement and they could also be advi;ed that
Attorney has been instructed to proceed with eminent domain.

-4-
;29
da
there ~as a condtion where one of the opponents had put in
curbs, gutters and sidewalks and had improved the street in
front of his property. The westerly end abuts what will
be County property a.nd there is an embankment there that
will probably impound water. He has been up to look at the
prope~ty after two rains and saw no serious condition.
City Manager said that annexations must start somewhere and
with annexation there are conditions where improvements are
accomplished. It was his opinion that eventually, and
perhaps sooner than one would think, the property would be
improved. City Manager sees no justification for leaving
this particular property out of annexation.
Mr, J. C. Scott, 10280 Scenic Blvd. , sta.ted that as of today
the assessed valuation had changed. Mr. Scott is opposed
to being annexed into the City and requested that his property
be taken out of annexation. City Attorney advised Mr, Scott
that hearing had been opened, passed and closed and that
there was no way in which this could be done. Mr. Scott
understood at the la.st meeting that the annexation was
postponed until the City Engineer had given his report on
the prooerty. Mayor explained to Mr. Scott that annexation
had a first reading at last meeting and that City Manager
had given his report in regard to property at present
meeting. Mr. Scott stated that the County has asked him to
accept the street back again and that he can not get his
money bacK from escrow until this is done.
Motion by Councimman Lazaneo that Resolution 117, approving
annexation of certain contiguous uninhabited territory
designated Stevens Creek No, 1 be adopted, Seconded by
Wilson.
Daisy Beatty, 10234 Scenic Blvd. asked why certain property
was left out of annexation. City Engineer stated that
this had something to do with the balancing of the assess-
ment value. Miss Beatty objected to not being given an
opcortunity to vote on annexation, Councilman Wilson
explained that the Council is charged with doing things
which will benefit the majority of the people in Cupertino
and it was their opinion in initiating this éJnnexation
that it would be for t:';e good of the greater number of
people in Cupertino,

City of Cupertino from an R-l:B-2 District to an R-J-H
District, Edenvale Land Company. Discussion arose as to
whether Ordinance 120 should be read at present meeting.
City Attorney advised that the reading of an ordinance is
in fact an introduction to the Council and that the Council
is the only body which can instruct the preparation of
ordinances. He felt that it would not be advisable to
draft ordinances to be read at Council Meetings on the
chance that the Council might accept ordinance. Discussion
arose as to the possibility of having the first r'eading
of an ordinance after a public hearing in order to expedite
matters. City Manager stated that on the one hearing at
the Council level the resolution is presented to the
Council from the Planning Commission and if the Council
agrees with the resolution they then instruct the City
Attorney to prepare an ordinance outlining the condtions
of the resolution, and the ordinance has a first hearing
at the next Council meeting. City Attorney inquired
about conditions which Council may attach. City Manager
answered that Council may amend the resolution, adopt
resolution as amended and then instruct City Attorney to
prepare the ordinance.
