3. PUBLIC HEARINGS
3.1 LANDS OF GHEYRI, 27400 Elena Road (25-99-ZP-SD-GD-VAR); A request
for a Site Development Permit for a new two-story residence, swimming pool,
and cabana; and a variance to allow the residence and parking spaces within the
front setback (continued from November 10, 1999).
Discussion ensued regarding the width of the driveway, the reduced impact to the trees, the sharp
tum onto the existing driveway, the interior driveway going over the drainage area three times,
the partial removal of oleanders on the left side of the driveway, areas where the easement width
could be reduced by two feet, and the fault trace as it relates to the pool and pool house location.
OPENED PUBLIC HEARING
David Tollner, 2050 De La Cruz, Santa Clara, attorney for the applicant, was available for
questions.
Commissioner Gottlieb questioned the stepping stones from the house to the pool over the swale.
Mr. Gheyri stated the design indicates you can walk across the driveway and down the steps to
the pool. There has not been a bridge planned although with the landscape plan they can include
perhaps a decorative one.

Tom Knapp, 525 University Avenue, Palo Alto, attorney for John and Rosemary Wells, 27285
Elena Road, reviewed Planning Commission comments from the previous meeting noting the
house plans have not been changed. He further discussed the variance findings, the applicant
using all of the development and floor area allowed, and neighboring homes (Wells &
Skarmoutsos) much smaller in size. The Planning Commission has the discretion to request a
reduction in size. He felt the pool house was a concern if used as a secondary dwelling unit
which would burden the property further. The Wells were also concerned with their access being
cut off during construction (emergency situations) and due to their age, pedestrian access would
be a problem. The Planning Director suggested having the City Engineer monitor any possible
delays or blockage of the access road. Mr. Knapp offered to draft language for condition #18 for
staff review. He asked for stronger and/or expanded wording for condition #17 to address
possible stray trucks damaging the underground utilities servicing the Wells property. Access
and drainage are both a concern.
Terry Szewczyk, 91 First Street, San Jose, civil engineer for John and Rosemary Wells, 27285
Elena Road, stated concerns with widening the driveway. He requested review of the grading
and drainage plan prior to approval by the City Engineer.
Jeff Peterson reviewed condition #13. He felt there was no problem with Mr. Szewczyk
reviewing the grading and drainage plan with no rights of rejection. The Planning Director
suggested he review the current plans and provide the City Engineer with any concerns.
Paul Chalmers, 601 California Avenue, Palo Alto, attorney for the Marayas, reiterated comments
presented at the previous meeting regarding the easement which runs very close to the backside
of the Maraya house (bedroom side). He felt the Commission should require, as a condition of
any development, that some measures are in place for reduction of sound vibration, dust, and
whatever other impacts may occur during construction. He suggested a sound wall /barrier along
the road easement. He had obtained a proposal from a consultant which he had provided to Mr.
Gheyri's attorney at the previous meeting, with no response. Given the changes to the easement
which will increase the impact to the Maraya residence, he reiterated this point and concern,
requesting the sound barrier be included as a condition to the eventual construction of the new
house and driveway. The proposal would be for a six foot high stone block barrier along the
property line. This will replace the hedges which are to be removed.
Dianne Barrager, Pathways Committee, discussed the previous pathways request. She clarified a
path is shown on the Master Pathway Plan from Robleda Road to Elena Road before Purissima
Road. They are only asking for an easement. It may not be used and/or they may find another
way to move people in case of an emergency. They already have many of the easements
adjacent to I-280 (at least 16 easements).
David Tollner responded to the request for a sound barrier which would be well over $100,000 in
cost. The easement does not need to be expanded. The wall and the hedges fall within the
easement that Mr. Gheyri has purchased with the property. He referred to Judge White's ruling
"plaintiffs have the right to reasonably trim or if necessary remove bushes and trees in the area of
the easement such that the whole width of the paved portion of the easement can be used for the
Planning Commission Minutes Approved 1/12/00

Page 3
specified purposes without interference." Mr. Chalmers declaration in the action for quiet title
which was dismissed, declared under oath that "the plaintiffs decided to dismiss their action
because they have taken full time residence in France." He continued noting that the request for
a sound wall/barrier may not be unreasonable, they have been working with the City Engineer
who is well equipped and prepared to protect everyone's interest.
Cyrus Gheyi, 10355 Stems Avenue, Cupertino, applicant, responded to Mr. Knapp's comments
noting he is within the limitations of the MDA/MPA. He discussed the age and size of the
homes surrounding him, and that the Marayas were aware of the location of the easement when
they purchased their property. He should not have to resolve their misplacement of sleeping
rooms with a sound wall. Also, Elena Road is a much nosier road.
CLOSED PUBLIC HEARING
Commissioner Cottrell understood the emotional impact on the neighbors but all of the
improvements will improve the neighborhood especially as it relates to fire vehicles and safety.
The fault lines and the existing easements greatly limit the location of the house. He voiced
support of the project. Commissioner Gottlieb discussed the temporary hardship on the
neighbors. She asked if the plantings (hedge) along the driveway could be replaced/moved to the
edge of the easement. She is always concerned with granting a variance with new construction.
They could move the comer of the home so it would be out of the setback. She was very
concerned with the two car spaces within the setback especially because they are not connected
to the main house but going to the pool house (secondary dwelling) which will produce more
traffic. She also felt the front of the house should step down (change design). Commissioner
Schreiner did not have much difficulty with the variance for the house as with parking in the
setback. She was concerned with the neighbors during construction asking for as many
safeguards as possible. Regarding the request for a sound barrier, she felt it was unreasonable.
The applicant would explore replanting the hedges and work with the Wells regarding drainage
concerns. Commissioner Wong shared this opinion regarding construction and working with the
neighbors for new plants. Overall, he felt this was a good project. Chairman Jinkerson felt the
application could work with staff regarding the elbow area to make sure the radius tum is
workable and work with the Marayas regarding plants/shrubs. Mr. Peterson questioned planting
oleanders along narrow areas of the easement. If oleanders are to be used, they should be located
on the other side of the fence, with the consent of the neighbor.
Commissioner Gottlieb provided her thoughts for a possible motion as follows: approve
driveway with final drainage notification to the Wells for review; review replanting existing
shrubs either within the easement (left side) or on the property line (between the driveway and
home); review elbow curve for proper radius; #18, review language from Tom Knapp (Wells'
attorney); setback the I-280 portion of the house and look at moving the house so a variance
would not be needed; and work with staff to mitigate the need for the parking space variance.
Discussion ensued

MOTION SECONDED AND PASSED: Motion by Commissioner Cottrell, seconded by
Commissioner Wong, and amended, to approve the Site Development Permit for a new two-
story residence, swimming pool, and cabana; and a variance to allow the residence and parking
spaces within the front setback, Lands of Gheyri, 27400 Elena Road, with the following
additions/changes to the conditions of approval: revise site plan to show the driveway turning in
to the project site at a tum radius acceptable to the City Engineer; add to condition #2, that
landscape planting within the driveway easement may be required to screen the driveway traffic,
if determined to be feasible by staff, or on the neighbor's property with their permission;
condition #18, the applicant shall maintain safe and unrestricted vehicular and pedestrian access
to the Wells and Skarmoutsos' properties at all times during construction, except where
authorized in writing by the City Engineer for temporary periods, providing for appropriate
notice to the neighbors. The applicant shall locate, protect and provide access to all existing
utilities serving neighboring properties; and the property owner shall grant an easement for
ingress and egress across the property for the benefit of the properties to the north and south of
the site, or shall demonstrate that such an easement already exists, to the satisfaction of the City
Engineer.
AYES: Chairman Jinkerson, Commissioners Schreiner, Wong & Cottrell
NOES: Commission Gottlieb
This approval is subject to a 22 day appeal period.
Brief break at 7:20 p.m.
3.2 LANDS OF ASTIZ, 13901 Edith Avenue (182-99-ZP-SD-GD); A request for a
Site Development Permit for a new residence, and secondary dwelling unit
(continued from November 10, 1999).
Staff had nothing further to add to the report. Discussion ensued regarding the subdivision
restrictions, if there was a conservation easement over the swale (just drainage easement); Water
District easement; native riparian plantings; and jurisdiction over the Swale (Water District).
OPENED PUBLIC HEARING
Abigail Ahrens, 3295 S. San Antonio Road, Los Altos, applicant's representative, restated
comments presented at the previous meeting regarding the challenge of the site and responding
to the staff report. They have taken a very challenging site which meets all the rules, with no
variances or exceptions, providing a charmed village approach rather than one large house. She
provided an overhead display, reviewing the following: front of the property; the MDA/WA
and setbacks which increased during the subdivision process; the history of the swale; and noting
the ability to plant between this site and the Rogez site. She reviewed the changes to the plan
and the berm in front of the wall.

Von Haws, 329 S. San Antonio Road, Los Altos, project architect, in response to a question,
stating the weathervane height is seven feet above the roof line. It serves as ventilating the attic
and is keeping with the style and period of the house. The Town ordinance allows such
appurtenances to exceed the 27 foot maximum height limit such as a chimney or objects such as
this. Ms. Ahrens stated this will not be seen from Edith Avenue, only from the small portion of
the driveway.
The Planning Director noted that the area scales out to 36 feet. If they are leaving the
weathervane, he suggested conditioning it to be 35 feet or lower in height.
Dianne Barrager, Pathways Committee, reviewed the request for a restored Type IIB path along
Fremont Road and Edith Avenue, as needed.
Darryl Hastings, representative for Mr. and Mrs. Rogez, voiced support of the project.
CLOSED PUBLIC HEARING
Commissioner Wong liked the style of the house. He felt the applicants have responded to the
previous requests with no negative impact. He has reviewed the story poles and voiced support.
The Planning Director noted staff concern regarding the story pole placements as they did not
adequately reflect some aspects of the house. They did get the gable portion up yesterday. The
story poles did not well reflect what was needed to review. Chairman Jinkerson asked the
Planning Director if they had the discretion to ask the applicants to modify the gable roof on
Edith Avenue? The Director responded yes, only with the necessary findings. Commissioner
Schreiner asked what was the length of the structure along Edith Avenue (113 feet long). Mr.
Haws was asked to explain the berm previously mentioned. He responded that some of their
sound engineers have advised them that if they put a berm in front of a wall next to a busy street,
it tends to deflect the sound upward. There would be a mound of earth (three feet high) in front
the six foot wall. Commissioner Schreiner felt this large house 40 feet from Edith Avenue and
Fremont Road was very imposing and visible. They wanted to make the house as unobtrusive as
possible in this area from off-site. There will be limited landscaping area due to the setbacks and
because the house is scrunched into the comer. There are two massive structures in the front
giving a bulky appearance. She would like to see some of the second story accessory structure
height reduced further. She felt more could be done to mitigate the site. She recommended a
redesign. Commissioner Gottlieb discussed the subdivision process and what they wanted to see.
Now you will see the back of the house on both sides of the road with a high porte cochere. She
would like the six foot wall eliminated as it gives a fortress appearance. Commissioner Cottrell
agreed with Commissioner Schreiner in that the house should be pulled down (front roof line).
Chairman Jinkerson was not concerned with the six foot wall with the berth. He reviewed the
code, stating the height limitation with the cupola exceeds the height limitations (not an
appurtenance).
Abby Ahems stated the applicants are happy to remove the cupola replacing it with a
weathervane. Peter Astiz commented on the only area which is two-story (guest house). He
discussed a variety of designs but felt none would be as pleasant as the design before them. All
neighbors have expressed support for the project. Commissioner Schreiner asked the applicant if
Planning Commission Minutes Approved 1/12/00
December 9, 1999
Page 6
they could do a further reduction. Von Haws stated, in essence, they have a single story structure
except for the guest house which is not a full second floor wall. They have addressed issues
presented at the previous meeting. The Planning Director concurred with Mr. Haws regarding
the bonus mom over the garage (single story structure). The issue is the second floor guest unit.
He does not have any suggestions regarding how to lower it and keeping the usability of the unit.
The only option would be to remove it if they are trying to lower the height on the Edith Avenue
frontage. Otherwise they could flatten the roof but this would be inconsistent with the design of
the whole house. Mr. Haws noted if the guest unit was to be removed, it would have to go
elsewhere which would make the structure even more elongated. Commissioner Schreiner was
very concerned as this is the entrance to the Town. The structure is noticeable and landscaping
around the perimeter will help a great deal. Commissioner Cottrell asked if the house could be
rotated counter clock wise with the guest house further back. Ms. Ahems stated it cannot be
rotated as six comers are on setbacks.
Chairman Jinkerson felt they could work with staff to produce a landscape plan now to soften the
appearance. Commissioner Gottlieb would like to see the parking moved to the other side to
allow an area for planting.
MOTION SECONDED AND PASSED: Motion by Commissioner Gottlieb and seconded by
Commissioner Schreiner to continue the request for a Site Development Permit for a new
residence, and secondary dwelling unit, Lands of Astiz, 13901 Edith Avenue, for redesign,
b possibly rotating the house.
�y AYES: Commission Gottlieb, Schreiner & Cottrell
NOES: Chairman Jinkerson & Commissioners Wong
Discussion ensued regarding rotating the house as suggested. Commissioner Cottrell requested
reconsideration of his vote. By consensus, the vote was reconsidered.
MOTION SECONDED AND PASSED: Motion by Commissioner Cottrell and seconded by
Commissioner Wong to approve the Site Development Permit for a new residence, and
secondary dwelling unit, Lands of Astiz, 13901 Edith Avenue, with the following
additions/changes to the conditions of approval: show the roof height not to exceed 25 feet at
any point; delete the lantern feature from the roofline of the principal structure; relocate the fifth
parking space to the opposite side of the driveway to allow for further landscape screening; #2, a
landscape screening and erosion control plan shall be reviewed by the Planning Commission;
and, #2, the six foot high stucco wall shall be screened with a three foot high earthen berm with
suitable landscaping.
AYES: Chairman Jinkerson, Commissioners Wong & Cottrell
NOES: Commission Gottlieb & Schreiner
This approval is subject to a 22 day appeal period.

3.3 LANDS OF BARATTA, 11675 Dawson Drive (222-99-ZP-SD-VAR); A request
for a Site Development Permit for a pool, and variance to exceed the maximum
development area.
PASSED BY CONSENSUS: To continue this item to the January 12, 2000 meeting to allow
staff the necessary time to review the topographic survey and Worksheet #2 which were
submitted on November 30, 1999. The applicant was previously notified of the continuance.
3.4 LANDS OF TORABI & MAJIDI, 26861 Purissima Road (228-99-ZP-SD); A
request for a Site Development Permit for a new residence.
Staff introduced this item by providing recommended changes to condition #1 as the applicant
has provided staff with an additional building section through the library and living room
showing the interior height not exceeding 17 feet. Chairman Jinkerson disclosed that on Sunday
he had met Mr. Torabi at the site and discussed the staff report. Commissioner Schreiner asked
staff if the applicants were told that three story facades were discouraged. The response was yes.
She asked for clarification regarding the basement on page 5 as it relates to the door to the
workshop. Staff is requiring a five foot separation so the garage and the basement do not share a
common wall.
OPENED PUBLIC HEARING
Mrs. Majidi, 1348 Bob White Avenue, Sunnyvale, applicant, discussed condition #2, stating the
proposed basement is entirely underground and only the exit has access to the garage and the
floor above. The garage itself is 80% underground as well. Condition #2 is imposing a
considerable additional expense to them with no justification. Regarding condition #1, three
story facade, the proposed design complies with most of the essential recommendations in the
Residential Design Guidelines, highlighting the following reasons: retains the openness of the
town setting by compacting the building in one small area rather than spreading the building all
over the site; siting of the house on the lot is based on the shape and contour of the lot for proper
balance and harmony; creates the least visual and privacy impact on adjacent homes; minimized
bulk and mass of the building by staggering the building and breaking the mass into smaller
parts; garage beneath the building minimizes the visual dominance of the garage on the public
street; garage almost entirely underground; portion of garage that is not underground would
hardly be visible due to existing vegetation; the leaching field a major consideration in location
of the building on the site and the building footprint; and if the building is redesigned to detach
the entire garage, as staff has suggested, the visual impact of a detached three car garage building
sitting in front of the lot, closer to the front setback line is much greater on the public street than
the proposed design.
Sandy Humphries, Environmental Design Committee, suggested working with the neighbor to
the right (as you face the house) to make better mitigation between the homes. Also, she asked if
they would use at least one third drought tolerant plantings.

4W Dianne Barrager, Pathways Committee, requested construction of a Type IIB path along
Purissima Road separated from the road by at least five feet. The applicant can best determine
how to place the path given the restrictions.
CLOSED PUBLIC HEARING
Commissioner Schreiner asked for the height of the retaining walls on both sides of the garage.
Glush, the architect, stated variable heights from seven feet at the garage door down to four feet.
The driveway will be cut six feet to get into the garage. Commissioner Schreiner discussed the
policy on basements which has been followed consistently. When following the code, the
basement is free space. She further discussed three story facades and the perception of depth and
bulk. She would like to see a redesign of the garage area to be more in keeping with the first
floor and the basement should meet the definition. Commissioner Cottrell felt this was clearly a
three story facade. He understands this is a guideline but there should be an effort to correct it.
Commissioner Gottlieb has trouble with the basement and the three story facade. One way to
correct this is to have the garage up higher so the basement becomes more conforming.
Chairman Jinkerson agreed.
Mr. Torabi discussed the three story facade providing the Commission with a rendering of the
site to further discuss the questionable areas. There is only one three story facade area. He felt
this was better than having a three car garage next to the house.
MOTION SECONDED AND PASSED: Motion by Commissioner Schreiner and seconded by
Commissioner Cottrell to continue the request for a Site Development Permit for a new
residence, Lands of Torabi & Majidi, 26861 Purlssima Road, to January 12, 2000, at 6:00 p.m.
for a redesign of the garage element so it will either be on the level of the first floor or close to
the first floor to eliminate the three story facade, and the basement shall meet code or count in
the floor and development area calculations.
AYES: Chairman Jinkerson, Commissioners Wong, Schreiner, Cottrell & Gottlieb
NOES: None
3.5 LANDS OF INGLIN, 27855 Moody Road (208-99-ZP-SD-GD-VAR); A request
for a Site Development Permit for a new residence, and variance to allow
encroachment of house and parking area into setback from access easement.
Disclosure: All Commissioners had either spoken to the applicants over the phone or at the site.
Commissioners Jinkerson and Cottrell had received a call from Mr. Taylor, neighbor to the
Inglins. The Planning Director provided a brief background regarding the removal of trees from
the slope, one tree on the Taylor's property and the planned replacement trees which are not
current issues.
Chairman Jinkerson discussed driveways to the secondary dwelling unit, one story houses on a
ridgeline, and secondary units subordinate to the main structure.
OPENED PUBLIC HEARING
MJ
Planning Commission Minutes Approved 1/12/00

Page 9
Cindy Inglin, 27855 Moody Road, applicant, discussed the house design and the request for a
variance as the actual lot size is so small due to the 35.1% slope that even getting a one story
structure with four bedrooms and three baths would be difficult without digging completely into
the ground. This is the reason for a second story. The house is 2,681 square feet with a 1,250
unfinished basement and an attached 710 square foot garage. The existing cottage is 800 square
feet. They have remodeled the cottage and plan to live there during construction of the new
residence. She further discussed other design elements and the use of grasscrete or cobble stone
She submitted documents regarding the Taylor's concern. There is a possibility that all of the
parking spaces could go over by the cottage but it would require a retaining wall and stepped
down so it would not be visible. They have met all the requirements with room for landscaping.
They can plant now or later. She clarified that only the Thurstons use their portion of the access.
Chairman Jinkerson was concerned with the secondary structure as it should be located on the
same side of the road as the residence. He felt it would be a mistake to develop this property
with the secondary structure on one side, with a through road, and the house on the other side.
Mrs. Inglin thought they were at their maximum septic capacity on the house side of the
property. In 1998, they spent $85,000 remodeling the secondary unit. She did not see anyway to
move the secondary unit.
Carol Thurston, 27857 Moody Road, voiced support.
Dianne Barrager, Pathways Committee, reiterated the Committee request to retain the existing
pathway easement. She asked for clarification from staff as the report indicates it traverses the
lower portion of the north slope.
Sandy Humphries, Environmental Design Committee, voiced difficulty with the removal of so
many trees as it ruins the habitat for the wildlife. One thing that needs to be done is the habitat
needs to be rejuvenated. She had recommended to Mrs. Inglin to contact a landscaper like Erin
O'Doherty with Native Revival Nursery who specializes in replanting and rejuvenating of the
wildlife habitat. She suggested building the house first, then look at oak tree replacement. At
the same meeting, Commissioner Gottlieb suggested moving the house five feet to avoid impact
to the 60" oak tree. Ms. Humphries agreed with the suggestion.
CLOSED PUBLIC HEARING
Commissioner Cottrell felt this was a difficult lot and he would have liked to see a one story
structure. However, he could support the project. Commissioner Gottlieb asked if pavers could
be used instead of asphalt for guest parking with engineering and Fire Department approval
(mixture of materials). She understood they do not have the area needed for a one story structure
as it is a constrained lot She requested any conservation easement fencing remain open to
provide for the flow of wildlife. Commissioner Schreiner shared Chairman Jinkerson's concerns
regarding the two homes. However, it is an existing situation. She was also concerned with the
c minimum parking available although the secondary dwelling cannot be expanded. She would
`• like to see different materials used for the secondary dwelling to make it more compatible to the
main structure and landscaping around the parking area. Commissioner Wong agreed with
Planning Commission Minutes Approved 1/12/00
December 9, 1999
Page 10
Commissioner Cottrell. He voiced support. He also liked the suggestion regarding the use of
pavers and/or grasscrete. Chairman Jinkerson discussed the variance and the findings. He did
not know how he could tell this applicant they cannot have a two story home when the neighbor
has a three story structure. He was troubled with the 27 foot house on top of a ridgeline. The
Commission can request a reduction to 24 to 25 feet. He also was troubled with a 14 to 15 foot
access road splitting the site. He also suggested adding a condition for restoring the site due to
the removal of the trees.
MOTION SECONDED AND PASSED: Motion by Commissioner Schreiner and seconded by
Commissioner Cottrell to approve the Site Development Permit for a new residence, and
variance to allow encroachment of house and parking area into setback from access easement,
Lands of Inglin, 27855 Moody Road, with the following additions/changes to the conditions of
approval: revised plans to show the house a minimum of two to five feet further away from the
existing 60" oak tree; revise the parking configuration to minimize impervious surface and
provide additional area for landscape screening; show the use of pavers for parking and tum
around areas; provide a plan for restoring and re -vegetating the woodland habitat removed or
damaged by the applicant, prepared by a qualified habitat restoration specialist; the existing
cottage shall be resided with shingles that match the color and texture of the shingles proposed
for the new residence; and no fencing is permitted in or around conservation easement areas
except open fencing that allows for the movement of wildlife.
AYES: Commissioners Wong, Gottlieb, Cottrell & Schreiner
NOES: Chairman Jinkerson
This approval is subject to a 22 day appeal period.
