Report ;to Planning Commiss( 9/22/83 SDR -1550 & A -908 - Allen, Merribrook Drive Page 3 C DESIGN REVIEW PROJECT CONSIDERATIONS: Setbacks, Height and Floor Area: The proposal complies with setback, height and imper- vious coverage requirements for the zone. The proposed floor area is slightly more than the 3,500 sq. ft. standard for the zone, which is mitigated by the lot size also being larger than the 10,000 sq. ft. standard for the zone. Privacy Impacts: The request is for a 531 sq. ft. 2nd story addition over an existing garage. There is only a single opaque glass window on the right side yard elevation and windows on the front and rear elevations are not a problem for adjoining residences. FINDINGS: 1. Interference with Views and Privacy The proposal would not interfere with the views or privacy of adjacent residences as no viewsheds are impacted and there are no windows proposed which have a privacy impact. 2. Preserve the Natural Landscape The proposal does not require tree removal or significant grading. 3. Excessive Bulk and Compatible Bulk and Height Cw The proposal is similar to other two -story residences in the neighborhood and does not appear bulky due to the location of adjoining structures and the roofline on the front elevation. It will not impair the solar access of adjoining properties. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval per the staff report dated 9/22/83 and Exhibits "B and C ". - Kathy- Ker9s Planner KK /LL /dsc G' Linda Lauzze `?�' ►� Planner P.C.

C. SUBJECT.- Approval of Memorandum of Understanding with the Santa Mara Valley Chapter American Red Cross Issue Summary: Under Federal law, the Red Cross is mandated to undertake activities for the purpose of mitigating the suffering caused by natural disasters and other emergencies. The City's Emergency Serviced Coordina- tors have determined that-the City of Saratoga does not have a current ' written agreement with the Red Cross to provide relief assistance in accordance with Red Cross established policy, procedures and guidelines. The attached agreement,which is the standard form in use with other cities and counties, will formalize the respective roles and responsiblities of the Red Cross and the City in disaster preparedness' planning and operations. Recommendation: Approve the Memorandum of Understanding between the Santa Clara Valley Chapter of the American Red Cross and the City of Saratoga; authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement on behalf of the City. Fiscal Impacts : The only cost to the City would be payment of staff salaries and benefits during both possible preparedness training by the Red Cross, and during operational assignments. Since under the rules of the California Emergency Council, all state, regional and local govern- ment employees become disaster workers, this would not likely be an increase over the cost to the City without the agreement.

Passed 5 -0. MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTAIv'DING BETWEEN THE SANTA CLARA VALLEY CHAPTER AMERICAN RED CROSS AND THE CITY OF SARATOGA 1. PURPOSE A. To recognize the respective roles and responsibilities of the American Red Cross (Red Cross) and the City of Saratoga in disaster preparedness planning and operations for natural disaster, (fires, floods, earthquakes, windstorms, explosions, etc.) or chemical accidents and other emergencies. B. To serve as a basis for mutual understanding and collaboration by.which the resources of the Red Cross and the City can be most effectively brought to bear for the relief of all persons affected by the above types of disasters. C. To reaffirm that the Red Cross and the City will discharge their respective responsibilities as described in the State of California Emergency Plan and as the Red Cross is mandated to do by Congressional Charter. II. LEGAL BASIS FOR OPERATIONAL RELATIONSHIPS A. The Red Cross is mandated by Federal law as defined in 36 USC -5 to undertake activities for the purpose of mitigating the suffering caused by natural disasters and other emergencies. The Red Cross does not have the power to surrender the mandate created by its Congressional Charter. This responsibility has been restated in the Federal Disaster Relief Act of 1974 (Public Law 93 -288). B. City responsibilities derive from the State of California Emergency Services Act and the Saratoga Municipal Code, Chapter 5. III. ROLE OF TBE RED CROSS A. In all natural disasters and other emergencies, the Red Cross provides relief assistance in accordance with its established policy, procedures and guidelines. B. The Red Cross response in disasters does not require a government declaration of any type. Regardless of the size of the disaster or the number of families affected, all assistance will be provided on a uniform basis. All Red Cross assistance to disaster victims is an outright gift. No payment is ever required or requested and no Red Cross disaster supplies are ever sold. C. In time of major disasters or other emergencies, Red Cross recognizes the City as a resource for staff whose skills are readily adaptable to Red Cross relief assistance programs. z. D. Red Cross will provide training for the City staff who may be assigned to Red Cross disaster operations. IV. ROLE OF THE CITY A. The City recognizes that in time of natural disasters the Red Cross has the primary responsibility for meeting urgent and emergency needs of disaster victims by providing food, clothing, shelter in congregate care or other facilities, welfare registration and inquiry, and other basic elements for human comfort and survival. B. The City will coordinate the capabilities of its departments to respond to disasters of all types. C. The City will continue to provide usual public assistance services during a disaster situation or a declared emergency. D. The City will provide needed staff, as available, to assist Red Cross in disaster operations. City staff may also be given time off to participate in Red Cross training courses. Staff salaries and benefits will be provided by the City to its staff in both preparedness training and operational assignments. E. In the event of an officially declared state of emergency, and pursuant to the rules and regulation of the California Emergency Council, all state, regional, and local government employees will become disaster workers; duties may include support of Red Cross. V. ADMINISTRATIVE AND FINANCIAL CONTROLS It is basic Red Cross policy that administrative and financial control of its disaster related services cannot be delegated or assumed by others. Individuals and organizations, including government, cannot represent Red Cross without prior agreement with and approval by Red Cross. VI. OTHER FUNCTIONAL RELATIONSHIPS A. The Red Cross has agreements with a number of United States government agencies, including the U.S. Department of Defense, for the obtaining and shipment of essential equipment and personnel to supplement emergency operations. B. The Red Cross may enter into contracts with public and private agencies, on a reimbursable basis, to provide Red Cross support in rendering assistance to victims in emergency situations. C. The Red Cross will support to the best of its ability, governmental efforts to alleviate suffering in war caused disaster situations. VII. OTHER PROVISIONS APPROVED APPROVED 3. This Memorandum of Understanding shall become effective on date of signature below and shall remain in effect until 30 days after either party gives notice to the other party that it desires to terminate or modify the agreement. 198_ 198_ 4 CITY OF SARATOGA 7 Initial: AGENDA BILL NO S�/ Dept.
