M. Lantz, 26050 Newbridge Drive, Los Altos Hills The discussion centered on the location of the road entrance, the proximity of the road to adjoining properties, the cutting and filling requirements resulting from the road location (discussed by Mr. Pfendt), and alternative locations for the road. Also discussed was the development of all lots in the subdivision with respect to cuts, fills, driveway grades and preference for lot access to be above or below the building site of each of the lots. One of the neighbors came up and talked. The field tour was joined by Mrs. Lantz whose property is located immediately adjacent to the to the proposed cul-de-sac bulb and who expressed great displeasure at having the land developed at all. She objected to the proposed street location, the right-of-way of which is approximately thirty feet from her home. Further comments by the Planning Commission regarded the inflexibility of the proposed interior lot line between the six smaller lots and the seventh major lot. The engineer Mr. Pfendt explained that this was the result of a sales agreement between himself and Dr. Oliver. The lot line could not be re -located to any great degree due to preservation of building sites along the crest of the hill on Lot 7. JM/ebh Respectfully submitted, John Markl Town Planner/Engineer
