LANDS OF PINEWOOD SCHOOL, Fremont Road, appeal of Planning <br /> Commission' s approval of the annual review of the conditional <br /> use permit <br /> Council had before them the Planning Director ' s staff report dated <br /> 10/28/88 which included the following staff recommendation: Condition <br /> #8 of the Conditional Use Permit for Pinewood School be revised to <br /> read as follows: ' The school grounds shall remain open to the general <br /> public during hours of school operation, with all surrounding <br /> pedestrian gates remaining unlocked during those hours. The pedestrian <br /> gates will be opened when vehicular gates are opened in the morning, <br /> and locked when the vehicular gates are locked at the end of the <br /> school day.

A brief history of the <br /> school was presented which included the statement that it was private <br /> property and there was no access to the property without the owners ' <br /> permission.

It was a family run school with many students whose <br /> families lived in Los Altos Hills and they did want to cooperate fully <br /> with the Town. Severalof the neighbors had expressed their opposition <br /> to the re-opening of the gates.
