Shopping Center, said the Improvement Agreement contains
features objectionable to their counsel.
He expressed willingness to dedicate the indicated
frontage on Stevens Creek Boulevard and to improve this
land. He objected to doing the same on the State Highway
lest that Division later impose different requirements, or
take it upon themsleves to widen and pave.
The City Attorney referred to a section of Ordinance 47,
the Subdivision Ordinance, which required site plan approval
by the City. He informed the Council that the project falls
within the meaning of a subdivision and that the owners are
in fact, subdividers. Mr. Woodruff took the position he is
not a subdivider.
After extended discussion, Mr. Woodruff agreed to perform
the work of improving a fifteen foot strip of property along
Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road and to improve same to whatever
extent indicated by soil tests.
A slight change was also made in the clause referring to
utility relocating and eventually proved satisfactory to
the City and the owner. Councilman Lazaneo moved adoption
of a resolution authorizing the Mayor to sign the Improvement
Agreement, dated April 9, between the City of Cupertino and
owners, Woodruff and Wilson; second by Councilman Saich and
carried 4 - 0; Councilman Wilson abstained.

II Purchase Of The Monta Vista Water Works
Mr. Bulot, J. B. Hanauer representative, briefed the
Council on the cost analysis. He proposes a revenue bond to
be floated over a 25 year period in the amount of $825,000
to cover the purchase price of the system, which is $700,000,
and additional costs such as fees.
The estimated gross revenue per year is $112,000 for
the 1300 connections presently in affect plus the $2,000
monthly flat rate charged to Permanente Cement Company. He
also estimates 40% of the gross revenue for maintenance and
- '? -
operation, the gross revenue being exclusive of the Permanente
Cement Company. The price of $700,000 will deliver the
Water Works free and clear of an¥ encumbrances, liens, etc.
Seventy three thousand dollars (i73,OOO) will be the highest
debt service in anyone year.
The accumulated surplus over a 25 year period, he
estimates at $1,488,000. In the analysis the ultimate
expansion is listed as 3225 connections in 25 years, as
opposed to 1300 existing.
He suggested that a $1,000,000 bond issue be referred to
the electorate for apssage, with ~175,OOO being held off
the market and retained for future sale as needed.
In connection with the Alves Water System, the City
Attornelf advised that a one year option be taken for the
sum of '2 500 which could be applied toward the purchase
price of $5~000. Councilman Saich moved that the City approve
an expenditure of ~2,500 for a one year option on the Alves
Water System plus $500 legal and incidental fees, the $2,500
to be applied toward the purchase price of $50,000; second
by Councilman Lazaneo and carried 4 - 1, Councilman Pelosi
opposed. .
The Mayor advised Mr. Bulot to incorporate the $50,000
price of the Alves System into the bond issue proposition.
III Mr. Myers presented the map which represented his thinking
thus far on the general plan for the City of Cupertino, He
referred to the different components without which the map
itself would be meaningless, mainly the Zoning Ordinance which
is under study at the present time by the Planning Commission
as a whole.
It was brought out that the current and recent appli-
cations before the Planning Commission are being considered
in the light of the proposed map and supporting ordinances.
Discussion revolved around the duties of Mr. Myers and
whether or not he is responsible to the Planning Commission
or Council. The concensus, not unanimous, appeared to be
that the Council had delegated to the Planning Commission
authority to direct the activities of Mr. Myers.
Mr. Myers said that this had been his understanding and
the assumption under which he has been working.
