MINUTES OF THE FEBRUARY 7, 1978, CITY COUNCIL ME'>TlNG
PL~ING APPLICATIONS
23. Application lo-TK-77 of IIobert Nellis: Tentative Kap to subdivide
94.5 acres into 23 single-family lots and one lot to be held in common
and retained in an open space use. Said property is located on the
westerly ridgeline of Regnart Canyon with access to be gained via the
southern terminus of Regnart Rd. RecOllllllended for approval.
Council agreed, with Counc. O'Keefe dissenting, to adhere to the following
time frame during the public hearings for the Robert Nellis applications:
Each person may speak oü~ time. One hour will be set aside for hearing
those against the proposed development.
One hour will be designated to hear those in favor of the proposed develop-
ment.
Each side will then have fifteen minutes for rebuttal.
The public hearings will then be closed and Council will discuss the applica-
tions and vote.
City Attorney AdalllS stated that Council can restrict time used for public
comment in a reasonable way; it may be done by general policy or at a specific
lIIeeting; Council may use reasonable ways to liRit the number of times a
person may speak; Council has an obligation to all interested parties regard-
less of residency.
The public hearings were reopened.
Mrs. Ghol~on, 22125 Regnart Road, spoke in favor of denial of the applications,
not because of density, but because of th~ proposed roadway. With the aid
of a map she suggested possible alternate routes, but did not favor e loop
road.
Mrs. Dorothy Wright, 22303 Regnart Rd., agreed with the loop concept, which
would provide a road constructed with Lindy Lane and Regnsrt Road. This,
she felt, would share the burden of traffic rather than place it on those
along Regnart Road. She also stated that there are already easements for
roadway along Lindy Lane and she believed trees were being removed in that
area anyway and the crefk in the area is not recogni2ed.
Another concern expressed was the silhouetting of houses when approaching
from Rainbow Drive.
Mrs. O'Patti Brisco, 22409 Saint Andrews, stated she is noc against the
development of Regnart Canyon, but is against preferential treatment.
She suggested the use of a separate building code in that area to pre-
serve th~ environment and opposed the use of slope density yieid.

·
Bruce Eisenhard, 21992 Lindy Lane, fclt the propos&d development plan was
alright. but wantedmo~c restrictions on the open space land, pArticularly
in respect to horses. He suggested making it part of t~e Hidpeninaula Re-
gional Open Space District.
ColIstance Marsh, Los Altos, spoke of the value of Regnart Canyon as a ref-
lI¡¡e, a value that will be destroyed with the visibility of hou.... She
also stated that the area's oak trees will die eventually when watered as
part of a front yard. She also suggested the iDposing of more regulations.
Before hearing those in favor of approval of the applications, Mayor Pro
Tempore Meyers called for a short break (9:15 p. m.).
Mayor Pro Tempore Meyers reconvened the meeting st 9:25 p. III.
Dick Schumacher, 11331 Bubb Road, was opposed to the original clearing of
the Nellis property, but now feels that Mr. Nellis is a responsible resi-
dent developer. Mr. Schumacher often walks in the hills and preferred the
original state to the present park-like condition, but realiz.~ that owners
have a right to develop within reason. He hopes that access to lhe area
by those on foot will be kept available.
Mel Douglas, 22022 Lindy Lane, waa against any improvement of Lindy Lane
and stated that the creek along the road was a deep one. He expressed
his opinion that the Nellis ~lan was a good one.

in Regnart Canyon. He urged acceptance of the plan and spoke sgainst tbe

expressed concern regarding the acreage that will be retained as open

plan as he felt it was adequate.

is necessa"y. Mr. Gordon McCarty, 21862 Lindy Lane, concurred.
Peggy Phillips, 10734 Martinwood Way, sister-in-law of Bob Nellis, asked
Council to approve plans as submitted~ Costs for development continue to
c 11mb.
Ann Weber, 10190 Stokes Avenue, also a landowner in Regnart Canyon,
urged approval.
Don Phillips, 10734 Martinwood Way, felt the merits of the plan are obvious
·
Dick Childress, 20225 Regnart Road, mentioned that although Mrs. Zarevich
was unable to attend the meeting she has expressed herself as in favor
of the plan and apposed to the loop road. He also stated that he has no
intention of tearing out trees <lr cC'cering over the creek along Lindy
Lane. He agreed the City sho~ld have control over the open space area

During the rebuttal period, Mra. Gholson &tated that. she would have ::oual:.t
the plans regardless of who owned the property.
Mrs. Wright mentioned that all those speaking in support of the developmC't
except Mr. Schlllll8t:her expect to live in the Bellis or ChHdress develep-
ments. She further stated that many who are sgainst the plans did no.
attend the public hearing. She urged the bo... be built below thp. ridgE-
top and the elilllination of a few homes. Bec.ause of erosion occllcring she
fel t a hydrologist should be consulted. She also e""resseu appro' al
of the loop road concept.
Mr. Childress stated that there w~re no easePents filed for Lindy Canyon
road and that he had erosi~n in his yard also.
