The construction of <br /> the new building and related site improvements will require the removal of the existing town hall <br /> structure and parking areas. Because of the scope of the proposed construction activity, it is not <br /> feasible to conduct public business on the premises during the construction period. <br /> The City Council and Los Altos School District are in the process of negotiating a short-term <br /> lease arrangement that would allow the Town offices to occupy a small portion of the former <br /> Bullis-Purissima School site for up to 15 months during the construction period. The Town <br /> would utilize the former school administration building and locate a temporary office trailer in <br /> the parking lot. Public hearings would be conducted in the multi-purpose room. The Los Altos <br /> Hills Zoning Ordinance section 10-1.703(k) allows the establishment of"Town facilities" in the <br /> Residential-Agricultural (R-A) zone district with a conditional use permit. The project is exempt <br /> from CEQA pursuant to Section 15301 "Existing Facilities." <br /> ATTACHMENTS <br /> 1. Use Permit Conditions of Approval <br /> 2. Site Development Permit Conditions of Approval <br /> 3. Findings for Approval of Conditional Use Permit <br /> I <br />
