of P~ter F. Bianco for rezoning 10.4 acres from R-I (F~sidential
Sicgl~-f~ily) to R-I-Bó-PD (Residential Single-family 6000
square foot lots - Plan"ed Development). Said property is
lo,at~d at the southwest corner of ~cClellan Road and Bubb
Road. (Applicaticn rev¡e~ed by Planning Commission on
January 11, 1971 - Res'. tion No. 851.)
~r. Sisk dcscribed the property as being located within the Cit1 of
San Jose and having becn referred to the City of Cupertino as a
courtesy in that it was located adjacent to Cit~· He said the proposed
cOllllllercial USe indicated ~as to be a service station on the corner
commenting further that the Planning Commission had not found fault
with the development but were concerned about the proposed cOODercial
use on the corner because of an abundance of commercial use already
located in the area. In concluding his presentation, Hr. Sisk informed
the COuncil that the action requested was an indication of the City's
feeling" to the City of San .Jose.
Hr. John Stewart, representing Creegan and D'Angelo, Civil Engineers,
Bud Newman with Mackay Haaes and :larty Hess of Dick Finian and AssociateB
c:aae forward for discusslon.

the various land uses in the L....ediate area. He COI!IØ>ented that com-
..rcial use would be preferred on the corner because of future develop-
..nt in tbe area and was D~essary to provide for the remainder of

Planning Commission (continued)
511ðes wete sbown of the pilot project consisting of 28 units located
fa Santa Clara al;.,., vith colored rendedngs. He desc:ribed the
project as baYing tbe folloving features: the hOlIes wwld cluster
,ill "IJ" shaped 6-plexes incorporating a plaza, ..jor _11, .inor _l1s
... .ini-p~rks; a comlllon driveway would run tbrougbout the project;
. recreation area would he provided; bOIIel! would be cO!lDected to
prages witb tbe en~rances to the sarages screened by landscaping;
riled roofs would be used and tbe bOll3B would be selling in the range
of $30,000 to $34,000. .
These hOlies, be continued, had been designed for f8IDUies with no
children or posRibly one teenager and would appeal primarily to
persons desiring to maintain a small amount of both indoor and
_tdoor foot&ge.
CouncIlman Noel commented that he liked the development but was
concerned aDout the commercial use proposed on the corner and
suggested that the residential area be carried out to include the
corner.
At this time, Mayor Stokes recognized a request from Mr. M. W. Smith,
8099 Presidio Driv.., Sail Jose, to address the Coundl.
~. Smith mentioned th~t he ~as an adjac~nt property C'Jner to th~
proposed development and a<õèed that he had spokl'n tü the Council
previously regarding co:":,,ercial use on the sa::>e ,;ite. He was of
the opinion that there was r.eav:: comerdal use already located in
Cupertino and felt certain pr~hlen,; exi,;teJ with this proposed
project which were: ingress and egress because only one entrance
vas aV3ilabl~ to the area. t:-.e units wer.'! very close tcfotether and
also located in close proxi~ity to the surrounding property owncrs
reducing privacy.
In response to Mr.. Smith's cc=ents, Mr. Stewart hroll¡:ht out the
following points: 1) 1/3 of the residences were two-story units
with the r"m.1ining 2/3's being of one-story dwellings, 2) witl. the
c:losest seconð stor) winduJ being 105 feet from the nearest neighbor,
privacy would not ~e a probl~. 3) cui-de-sacs were to he 34 feet
flom curb-t~-~~~ò as co~?ared to the City of San Josc's standard
of 36 feet in width and 4) a 54-foot minimum would be maintained
betveen structures.
In concluding, it was lIentioned that a recreational vehicle storage
area had been provided at ~he loss of two units, 50 per cent of the
area was to be open area and the resident1al development had been
oriented inward and away from búth streets.
Councilman Green voiced his agreement with Councilman Noel that the
development \las a good one except for the commercial use proposed.
Be then entertained a lIotion that the Planning Commission's recom-
aendations be accepted witb the exclusion of the commercial zoning
proposed which was seconded by ~~ncilman Fitzgerald and passed
by s unanillous vote.

Mr. Sail Anzelmo outlined acco~plishments by the C~ittee during the
past five months and 1ndic~ted various ke> points ~~ich had beer.
under discus~ion. He s~~d the first phasc of the C~ittee's efforts
consisted of a serie3 of brainstorming scssions ~here the Cocmittel
split into smaller groups ~ho, In turn, provideé 12 topics as a bas? .
for determining the id""'tity of the City of Cu~ertir.c. These 12 topici
areas, he said, were t:~~ consolidated into 7 ~ain tc?ics, those I
topics being Governcent and Implementation {co~ering the basic !
structurc of City Gover~nt), Public Finance (cc,er:n~ tax reforms 1
and cash pa)~ents for 1é:.:Jå aCGuisition as well aos '''a:'':'ous types of I
d~velop:'J.cnt), Human Re.5~·,;rc~s Developmet,~ and Cu¡tt..:~¡ PiJtlcrn5 I
(covering the four oai::. grc'Jps consistil¡~ of tec:":<sg£::"s, minority I
groups or lack of the::t,:lder citizen~ and house"i';~,), Eou~ing
(covering lo",-income h"'~si::¡; and density), Co:::c.,"C, it:' Serviccs and
Transportation (bike pa~~~. ecoYogically compati:!e ~ra~sport¿1tion
networks, ~tc.). Physi:ó: Co~unity Developcent; P~~se II and
Business De~elopment.
With the help of vlsual aids, Mr. Anzelmo summarized the 7 major
areas by saying that ~~t tad been donc was to de7êlJ~ a broad basis
fOJ looking êt a City. ?e said that thc Committee ~aè mutually
a&reed to use tbe topics developed in Phase I as a ?:an for ~orking
on Pbase 2 wbich would lzst for approximately 6 I:omhs. At the
completion of tbe 6 mo::.ths and subsequent to puol ic .,< arings, he
said a final report wou!d be prescnted to the Council for approval.
In responsc to Councilnan ~oel's inquiry, Mr. Anzel:o indicated that
the number of people allowable withln the Committee had becn dis-
cussed and it was bi~ feeling that the Committec could expar.d greatly
and still cover the topic.
Councilman Frolicb indlcated bis concern that great amounts of time
could be spent on investigating details and overlooking the broad
goals, to whicb Mr. Anzeløo respondcd that Fhase 1 vas only for
obtaining di~ersified ideas and Phase 2 would become more involved
~th specifics resulting in solidification of general ideas.

47. Establiabm~t of a fee payable by the owner for the reclailDing
of previously removed unauthorized S!3DS within ten days after
their having been removed.
It was explained by Hr. Ryder that the Sign Ordinance provides that
a fee may be enforc:ed. He commented that the aw~er is notified to
remove his sign and often times the Corporation Yard holds signs for
many ~eeks without thelr being reclaimed. If an owner of a slgn
does not rcoove the sign within a reasonable leagth of time an
~ployee must do it and the proposed fee is an estimate of value
of ti~e required to r~ove such signs. ~e co~cluded by saying that
a Minute Order setting the fee at $10.00 ~ould be sufficient action
takea and would be reco~ended at this t~e.

Publ ~c \~or~s DiT':.~tor Yarbor;::'_gh referred to a property ¿:é.g~a:::1
indicating h0~ a district c:~:: be set up and requested ë~~~crization
by the City C~uncil for t~e s:aff to initiate such a dis:r:ct in
conjunction ~ith the Blaney A~enue lmprove~ents. The prç?:~ed
undergrounding, he said, ~oul¿ coSt approxicately $11,000 ë~¿,
if Price Avenue ~as to be in~luded. the cost would be $l~,JOC for
the entire project.
He tben explained the various lot situations and, after sa=e dis-
cUS.i"." Ma)"or Stokes questicced the benefit to the indi·..i::ual who
vas currently living in an ol,;.,r home to pay $300.00 to connect
the utilities to his h~e. ?e then indicated that P G , E ~~~ld
be providing $16,000 of the grand total of the entire project
8aOUDting to $68,000.
DialoRue continued, after which it was indicated by CounciJ~n Noel
tbat tbe proposal would be favorable, however, questioned proceedinR
inasmuch as this group of property owners along Blaney had resisted
previous road widenin& plans and it would appear that they would
profit froll this projecl.
It was suggested by Councilaac Creen that comments be obtained from
the property owners involved prior to making any type of decision and,
further, in the event that tbe $300.00 became a problea for tbe in-
divJdual land owner, the City consider absorbing this SOOUDt.
