ADJOURNMENT TO REGULAR PLANI~TING COMMISSION MEETING Wednesday, June 14, 2006, at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers/Civic Theater 13777 Fruitvale Avenue, Saratoga, CA • PLANNING COMMISSION STUDY SESSION MEMORANDUM TO: Planning Commission FROM: Therese M. Schmi Associate Planner MEETING DATE: June 14, 2006 SUBJECT: St. Archangel Michael Serbian Orthodox Church 18870 Allendale Avenue (APN 391-01-014) Application #03-259 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission review the proposed architectural design, project plans, and requested variations to standards of the proposal on a preliminary basis and provide input to the applicant, neighbors, and staff. PROPOSED PROJECT: Background St Archangel Michael Serbian Orthodox Church currently holds a Conditional Use Permit to operate a church at 18870 Allendale Avenue. Existing structures on the site include: Pastor's residence and attached garage (2,521 sq. ft.), Hall (9,731 sq. ft.) and Chapel (1,224 sq. ft.). There is a separate single-family parcel owned by the church on the adjacent lot. This parcel is not part of this application. The applicant filed Conditional Use Permit and Design Review Application #03-259 on November 30, 2003. The applicant proposed construction of a church consisting of approximately 5,000 sq. ft. consisting of 300 seats. The ridge of the roofline would be 33-feet high with a bell tower dome rising to 44-feet and a central dome rising to 52-feet. This item was brought before the Planning Commission for a study session on September 8, 2004. The applicant received comments from the Commission, staff, and the neighbors indicating key concerns including: the distance of the proposed church from the street, the size of the church proposed at 300 seats; the scale of the church in terms of overall height and mass; the design's compatibility with the neighborhood; traffic; and noise associated with church bells.

Changed architectural design from an Medieval Byzantine to Morava Byzantine; 2. Reduced the ridge of the roofline from 33-feet high to 26-feet high, reduced the bell tower dome from 44-feet to 40-feet and reduced the central dome from 52- feet to 50-feet. 3. Reduced the proposed square footage from approximately 5,000 sq. ft. to 4,025 sq. ft.; however, the proposed floor area is 6,609 sq. ft. because Municipal Code Section 15-45.030 requires any space with an interior height of 15-feet or greater to be doubled, which it has been; 4. Reduced the number of proposed seats from 300 to 254; 5. Rotated the orientation of the proposed church 30 degrees to reduce visual impacts to Allendale; 6. No longer proposing operating bells. Requested Variations to Standards The applicant is requesting consideration of the following variations to standards: 1. Parking Standards: Municipal Code Section 15-35.030(a) and (b) requires a total of 240 parking spaces to accommodate the combined proposed uses on the subject parcel. Two covered spaces within a garage is required for the existing single-family detached home and one parking space is required for each forty sq. ft. of floor area usable for seating if seats are not fixed. The applicant is proposing a total of 85 paved parking spaces, 155 spaces less than required. The applicant is proposing the following: a. The applicant is requesting an interpretation of Municipal Code Section 15-35.020(e), which requires "Where parking requirements are determined by gross floor area, such area shall include any exterior balcony used as the sole means of access to a business establishment." The applicant has not calculated 492 sq. ft. of the Hall's foyer in the required parking calculations, resulting in a reduction of 12 required parking spaces. b. The applicant is proposing to provide 85 paved parking spaces, with 41 additional spaces designated as overflow spaces, located in a grass area that would be utilized as a playground when the overflow is not required. Municipal Code Section 15-35.040 (f) requires parking areas, aisles, and access drives to be paved. The applicant is requesting relief from this requirement in order to provide additional pervious coverage on the site and to provide a play .area for the congregation's children. c. The applicant is proposing a parking plan restricting simultaneous utilization of structures on site; therefore, reducing the need for all required spaces. _ ~ Pl;tnrtirt~; Corr7ntissiorr Stur~i~ Sessiat :t•~c~rrrurartcfunt 3 Crlyditit%rtul (s~' Permit ~tttil D~si~rrt Rai-i~~~ti: C).?-Z.i9, ISB-U Allendctl~-.=lvertue 2. Impervious Coverage: The subject site is located in the Rl- 40,000 zoning district, which restricts impervious coverage to 35% of the parcel. The subject site's current impervious coverage is 55.22%. The applicant is proposing to reduce the amount of hardscape associated with the parking lot and driveway as well as creating a grass area for a playground. Therefore, the proposed coverage is 50.52% of the subject site, which is 15.52% over the maximum allowed. 3. Floor Area Ratio: Municipal Code Section 15-45.030 (e) limits floor area to a maximum of 7,200 sq. ft. The subject site currently has a floor area of 13,476 sq. ft. and is requesting an additiona16,609 sq. ft. for a total of 20,086 sq. ft, which is 12,886 sq. ft. over the maximum allowed. 4. Height Limitation: Municipal Code Section 15-12.100(a) limits the height of main structures (other than single-family dwellings) to 30-feet in height. The applicant has submitted a letter regarding the requested height dated January 27, 2006, which has been attached to this report. Staff Discussion with the Applicant Staff has asked the applicant to considered removing some of the existing structures which would: reduce the floor area, reduce impervious coverage, and reduce the number of required parking spaces. The applicant has indicated that they need all of the existing buildings as well as the proposed space to meet the congregation's needs. Neighbor Notification Staff requested recirculation of Neighbor Notification Forms in letters of Incomplete issued on November 9, 2005 and February 23, 2006. Staff has not. received updated Neighbor Notification Forms from the applicant. However, the applicant has held three neighborhood meetings since the last Planning Commission study session: July 19, 2005, August 9, 2005, and October 4, 2005. Please see attached presentation materials. Public Noticing Notice for the June 14, 2006 Study Session was mailed to property owners within 500 feet.

As stated in Item #6 of the Planning Department's response to the CUP resubmittal dated October 18, 2005, "Proposed Height of the Church", the main concerns of the City of Saratoga regarding the new church design as submitted are the inclusion of a belltower and the overall height of the structure. In response to this, the following document will explain in detail why both these key elements are a necessity in the design, in the context of a discussion of relevant aspects of the Orthodox Christian Faith, which are outlined below: • A Discussion on Height and Structure • The Question of a Belltower • Proportions and the `Golden Ratio' • Symbolism and Holy Tradition in the Orthodox Christian Faith • The Byzantine Style and the `Morava School' • Serbian Orthodox Heritage in the United States • A Discussion of Orthodox Canon Law I. A Discussion on Height and Structure The reason for the ultimate height of the dome is based upon the functional heights of the nave, balcony,. and narthex, in the traditional style and symbolism of the structure (discussed in .further detail in Sections IV and V), as well as the Golden Mean proportions (discussed in Section III). All these factors work together to determine the overall width, length, and height of a Church which is designed to be occupied by a given number of worshippers. The ceiling of the narthex rests at a height of 9'-6", which is a very reasonable height, if not in fact, a bit low for an entry way. Add two feet of structure, and 11'-6" is the floor elevation of the balcony. Due to acoustic requirements, the balcony's ceiling is vaulted and ranges from 6'-6" to 12'-4" at its highest point, averaging close to a very reasonable 9'-6" floor to ceiling height once again. The overall height of the balcony ceiling at its highest point is thus 23'-10". The balcony height, for acoustics and continuity determines the interior height of the nave (at its highest vaulted point), which is also 23'-10". By design, the procession through the nave ultimately opens up into the central area covered by the dome -this requires that the height of the "vault" under the dome (actually a series of 4 "vaults" or pendentives which support the dome), must be higher than the nave. Bunton Clifford Associates, Inc. Corporate Office Branch Office www.BCAincOnline.com 210 Hammond Avenue ^ Fremont, CA 94539 519 West Main Street ^ Merced, CA 95340 [T] 510 445.1000 [F] 510 445.1005 [T) 209 725.1800 [F] 209 725.1818 ~2 Mr. John Livingstone St. Archangel Michael Serbian Orthodox Church CUP Resubmittal Page 2 of 7 Adding a reasonable 5'-2" to the nave's barrel vault creates a pendentive height of 29 feet. Adding 3 feet for the structural support of the dome brings the height to 32 feet. At this point, proportions determine the vertical height of the dome itself; in this case, the dome is 12'-4" high (the same proportion as the height of the balcony). This brings the height to 44'-6". The remaining height is made up by the 5'-8" of the dome's roof structure and slope. This lengthy description serves to illustrate not only the process which is studied to arrive at the necessary height, but also shows how any reduction would cause a "domino effect" affecting every aspect of an Orthodox Christian Church's functionality. Thus, reducing the height in this design would preclude many of the functions that the Orthodox Church needs and the Holy Traditions that Orthodoxy holds sacred -- it would not allow for a balcony (which requires a minimum head height); it would not allow for the Divine Proportion of the architecture to be expressed, an important aspect most worthy of a House of God; it would not allow for the symbolism experienced through the high windows lining the nave (as there would not be sufficient wall space or height to include them); and most of all, it would not allow for the height necessary to evoke the majestic grandeur of the central dome which signifies Christ looking over the Church from the heavens -the latter two being essential parts of the structure's symbolic tradition and are given more attention in Section IV below. An excerpt from a letter dated January 10, 2006 (see attached Exhibit 'A') from His Grace Bishop Longin, regarding the Canon Law governing the Serbian Orthodox Church in the United States and Canada, explicitly states the following in regards to verticality: "The building's vertical architectural elements are to dominate the horizontal, as they must reinforce a heavenward aspiration of bringing the heavenly Jerusalem down to the faithful in this sacred space. Accordingly, to achieve this effect, the ceiling and cupola [dome] are to be of height strictly proportional to the base footprint of length and width." 1 It should also be mentioned that the central dome, while being the core element of an Orthodox Church for many symbolic reasons, also serves the same role as a common church steeple, expressed in a unique-style (a dome) which adheres to tenets of the Orthodox Christian Faith. "Since about the 12`h century, Christian church buildings and steeples have been practically inseparable. Today, steeples remain an icon of American churches. Steeples serve two basic purposes. The first is that the unique architecture of a steeple indicates the nature of the building beneath it An important function of a steeple is to break up a skyline, giving ready identification to the fact that this building is a church. Steeples also serve the same spiritual function they always have-turning eyes (and hearts) heavenward to God. In satisfying both these functions; steeples must at the same time be noticeable and yet seamlessly blend with the church's architecture." 2 II. The Question of a Belltower In regards to the question and necessity of a belltower: the belfry is generally constructed in connection with the church, either in a separate tower or in one of the domes. The direct use of the belfry is to summon the faithful to worship, although the rubric concerning the use of the different bells and their manner of chiming and pealing is very detailed and complicated. They are rung at certain points in the service, in order that the faithful, who, for any reason, are not in church, may unite their prayers with those of the worshippers in the Temple at the most solemn moments. At Matins, for example, they are rung before the Gospel is read, while the lights are being kindled, and the choir is singing: 'Praise ~re the Lord'. At the Divine Liturgy one bell is rung while the Holy Gifts are being consecrated. While St. Archangel Michael has 6CA t3 Mr. John Livingstone St. Archangel Michael Serhian Orthodox Church CUP Resubmittal Page 3 of 7 agreed to not have its bells rung to the outside due to neighboring residences, the inclusion of the tower and the bells as a visual and internally audible element, is still necessary to fulfill the Church's tradition and symbolism. This resolution addresses both the needs of the Church and eliminates any neighborhood noise issues. This strong Holy Tradition in the Serbian Orthodox Christian- Church is strengthened through precedent, and many Serbian Orthodox Churches built in the United States for a congregation which has had the funding to do so, have included a belltower. Some examples of these churches, which follow the requirement of the Canon Law referencing the inclusion of a belltower, include St. Sava Church in Phoenix, AZ; St. Steven's Serbian Orthodox Cathedral in Alhambra, CA; St. Basil of Ostrog in Angels Camp, CA; Holy Assumption of the Mother of God in Fair Oaks, CA; St. Peter the Apostle Church in Fresno, CA; St. Sava Church in Jackson, CA; St. George Church in San Diego, CA; St. Sava Church in San Gabriel, CA; St. Petka Church in San Marcos, CA; Holy Resurrection Serbian Orthodox Cathedral in Chicago, IL; and, Holy Trinity Church in Butte, MT. (See attached Exhibit'B')4 III. Proportions and the `Golden Ratio' Another item to note in the design of this Church is that the belltower is not the highest element of the structure. The central dome, integral to the design of the Church, stands at 50 feet high. The belltower is in fact 10 feet lower than this, resting at 40 feet. There is a reason for each portion of the design, and every element works- together to form a whole which is harmonious and worthy of the title of a House of God. The "Golden Ratio" (also referred to as the "Divine Proportion", "Golden Mean", "Golden Rectangle", and "Golden Section") is used to define relative dimensions, and appropriate proportions in the design of a building so steeped in tradition, history, symbolism, and purity of architecture. "Shapes proportioned according to the golden ratio have long been considered aesthetically pleasing in Western cultures, and the golden ratio is still used frequently in art and design, suggesting a natural balance between symmetry and asymmetry. The ancient Pythagoreans, who defined numbers as expressions of ratios (and not as units as is common today), believed that reality is numerical and that the golden ratio expressed an underlying. truth about existence. " s This beauty and harmony found so often in nature is a testament to the world of the existence of God, and thus the Golden Mean is often seen in the design of Churches which rely on the importance of such divine symbolism. The attached Exhibit 'C' shows the church plan and elevations in relation to the properties of the Golden Mean.6 Any reduction in height would significantly alter the natural harmony and proportions of the structure, and render the Church unsuitable for the functionality required for the proper worship practices of the Orthodox Christian Faith. IV. Symbolism and Holy Tradition in the Orthodox Christian Faith It also must be understood h'ow and why such symbolism and tradition are such integral parts of the Orthodox Christian Faith; to help clearly express this, the current design of St. Archangel Michael's new sanctuary will be used here as an example. Through its architectural expression, the design of this unique Orthodox Church attempts to reveal the fundamental experience of Orthodox Christianity: God is with us. The roof forms of the exterior are broken up to reduce the mass of the building, and to increase the element of human scale. More importantly, these different planes, which start from the lowest and most human, gradually step the worshipper's eyes up, from one roof to the next, until they ultimately end at the top of the dome. This gradual procession from the ground to the apex of the dome prepares the worshipper to focus up towards the heavens, ready to come inside the church with a prayerful heart focused B C!A t~ Mr. John Livingstone St. Archangel Michael Serbian Orthodox Church CUP Resubmittal Page 4 of 7 upon God. Inside, the high windows let light into the nave from the heavens, illuminating the frescoes, and creating an inviting procession through the church nave, again ultimately lifting the worshipper's eyes up toward the dome, and to the image of Jesus Christ the Pantocrator. The harmony of all the interior forms working together to create a perfect symmetry and alignment represents God's perfection, and the desire for His worshippers to create a House of God that is worthy of His presence. The crowning element of this structure, the house of the Church that is the people of God, is the magnificent dome which serves to symbolize that in the Kingdom of God, and in the Church, Christ "unites all things in Himself, things in heaven and things on earth," (Ephesians 1:10) and that in Him we are all "filled with all the fullness of God." (Ephesians 3:19). The outcome is a beautiful and timeless structure which is faithfully designed to be in complete alignment with the tenets of the Byzantine style of architecture while at the same time delicately and successfully integrating into the rural character of the City of Saratoga. It should be understood that Orthodoxy is not a 'religion'. It is a 'Way of Life'. In fact, early Christians were known as "The People of the Way". Everything which is done in the liturgical practices is done for a specific purpose -that being to help establish a correct relationship with God on their path ('Way') toward theosis, i.e., to become like Christ. As John Ivancovich, President of St. Archangel Michael's Church Board, says, "When we are told that we can not orient in the Easterly direction, when it is physically possible to do so, we are prevented from practicing our Faith ('Way of Life) fully. When we are asked to hide our Church in the back of the property, so that it can not be seen, we are, in effect, told to go back into the catacombs, and, to not put ourselves forward where we can present an inviting image to passersby who might be interested in seeing 'what goes on inside that beautiful building' and to become exposed to Orthodoxy. In Orthodoxy, as in the song, "little things mean a lot". lf, historically, Orthodox people had compromised their traditions and practices over the centuries, there -would be no Orthodox Church today - at least not in its present form. It is important to be able to convey this message to the City and other influential parties. Little things mean a lot" V. The Byzantine Style and the `Morava School' The Byzantine style, which this Church is designed to follow per the Canon Law, has many tenets in its own right which must also be respected. Every effort has been made to meet these requirements while integrating into the surrounding area. There are many Byzantine sub- styles, and the one which has been chosen, an interpretation of the Morava school of Serbian Orthodox Church architecture, is a common style found in the Adriatic where red roofs, straight lines, and white walls prevail. The book Serbian Legacy, a work on historical Serbian Orthodox Church architecture describes this style: "The basis of the plan is a trefoil formed by three apses, north, east and south. In the centre, as always, there is a square space above which are constructed the pendentives, drum and dome. The apses are crowned with semi-domes, and at the west end there is a vaulted nave, to which may be added a narthex." The book goes on to add that "Where there is a narthex, it may be covered by a dome or by a belfry tower. In this final stage of development the combination of brick, stone and tiles reaches the limits of richness." ~ This style is very complementary to the neighborhood, where many homes in the area exhibit similar materials, colors, and rectilinear forms. As stated above, the height of the building is governed by the necessary height of the dome. This height- requirement fulfills the Holy Traditions of the Orthodox Christian Faith, follows the requirements of the Canon Law and, in regards to Byzantine Architecture, is necessary to "adhere to a specific architectural style", as stated in the City of Saratoga's Municipal Code. e B CAA ~5 Mr. John Livingstone St. Archangel Michael Serbian Orthodox Church CUP Resubmittal Page 5 of 7 Serbian Orthodox Heritage in the United States Moreover, this style is becoming- increasingly important to respect, as the ongoing construction of new Serbian Orthodox Churches in the United States is beginning to create a new style; a fusion between a renaissance of the traditional medieval Serbian Orthodox Byzantine style of architecture and various influences brought about from years of worship in America. Cornell University scholar Tanja Damljanovich, of the Institute for the Protection of Cultural Heritage of Serbia in Belgrade, offers the following commentary on the subject: "Until recently, the anathema toward religion in earlier communist ideology stopped religious building in Serbia. From the start of communist rule, Serbs in exile, especially in the United States, were in a better position to develop previously established church building traditions than indigenous communities... In recent years a demand for authentic expression in newly built churches has become synonymous with employing architectural prototypes considered essentially Serbian-Orthodox.... Although the building of Serbian-Orthodox churches in the United States has had a long tradition, more or less independent from the native country, recently built churches obviously show close links with the principles that have been established in Serbia. The creators of new Serbian- Orthodox churches in the United States, usually proud of their ancestors' heritage that they try to reconstruct, are probably not conscious of the fact that they are also creating a part of American heritage." 9 VI. A Discussion of Orthodox Canon Law A description of the essential components of a Serbian Orthodox Church edifice encompasses a very strong Holy Tradition which; through the years, has evolved into a style that is unique and widely accepted as being the basis for the design of a new Serbian Orthodox sanctuary. In the case of St. Archangel Michael Church, this description is recorded in the localized Canon Law of the Serbian Orthodox Diocese of Western America. The following excerpt from "The Book of Canons" by Father Gregory Grabbe explains how Canon Law, by its nature, reflects the characteristics of each local Church: "Each local Church has its own compendium which reflects the local characteristics. The source of all such compendia lies in those collections of Church law compiled in Medieval Byzantium. These contain decisions of Church authorities which were reached in totally different historical epochs and in different Churches, as well as decrees of Byzantine emperors and a number of statutes which are of purely local character. The form in which these codices of local Church law presently exist cannot fully serve as practical guides and are in reality only of historical interest. Today's Church organization outgrew these codices. A significant part of their norms cannot be applied to present conditions and have been changed and even discarded in various autocepha/ous Churches. Along with these codices the autocepha/ous Churches publish and continue to publish their own canons either making up a part of local compilations or exist in separate forms. Naturally there is neither external nor internal agreement among all these norms which make up the Canon Law of each local Church." to Thus, the Orthodox Canon Law states that a local entity, be it a Diocese or even a single Church, may develop and publish their own specific Canons, based on the original Canon Law, which suit the needs and reflect the values of their individual jurisdiction or parish. In turn, the local Canon Law stating the requirements for the design of an Orthodox Church edifice, as written and recorded by His Grace Bishop Longin, Bishop of the Diocese of Western America, of which St. Archangel Michael Serbian Orthodox Church is a parish, should be revered as Holy Tradition, B CAA too Mr. John Livingstone = St. Archangel Michael Serbian Orthodox Church CUP Resubmittal Page 6 of 7 and this parish's Canon Law. 'I Thus, this letter by Bishop Longin must be upheld and its requirements fulfilled. Father Ilija Balach, a priest of the Serbian Orthodox Church and also a former architect, offers the following words regarding Canon Law and Holy Tradition: "Orthodox Church design has evolved as a function of Holy Tradition which is sacred in the Church. There are numerous liturgical and theological implications on the design of Orthodox Churches that enhance worship services. It is important to note that Orthodox Churches have characteristic forms that relate to the region of the world that the people come from. Just as anon-Orthodox Christian would not like to have someone impose a church form that is foreign to their culture, so it is not appropriate to impose non-Orthodox forms on Orthodox Christians. You cannot compare church architectural forms with the residential fabric of a neighborhood. Churches have always been unique and rightly so. Heights of Orthodox Churches likewise have a proportional aspect to them that defines the form. Changing the height to fit an arbitrary standard is tantamount to saying that no one is unique and that everyone should cut their hair in a `crew-cut' style." Tradition plays a very large role in how Orthodox Christians practice their Faith. For instance, the most noticeable is the manner in which one makes the sign of the cross from right to left, as opposed to left to right, which the Roman Catholics do. This is not something which can be found in the Canons, but is as much a part of the Orthodox Christian Faith and traditions as anything else. Just because it isn't written, does not make it unnecessary. A short, round, Greek-style church, would not work for Orthodox Christian Serbs. Another example of fundamental "tradition" which is nowhere to be found in the Orthodox Canon Law is referenced below, again from "The Book of Canons" by Father Gregory Grabber "The more complete canonical compilations, not only Eastern but Western as well, have no canons which establish general and fundamental principles of Church organization. These compilations have any number of canons regulating the relationship of bishops among themselves, the interrelation of presbyters and deacons, but we would not be able to find canons defining the very principle of hierarchy. There is not a single rule calling for the Church to have all three orders of clerics. The basic organization of a Christian community headed by a bishop is not to be found... We are so accustomed to these gaps that they are not even noticed, but if some historian would attempt to describe the organization of the Church based exclusively on canonical norms he would fall into a number of serious errors."12 So it is with the Canon Law regarding Orthodox Church architecture as well; one cannot quantify the requirements and guidelines for the design of a new Church edifice solely by the general Orthodox Canon Law, in the same manner that the design- of such a Church could not be governed by ideals which are non-Orthodox or contrary to Holy Tradition. Specific requirements for the design of a new Church must take into account prior precedent, functionality, tradition, and ultimately the Canon Law of the specific jurisdiction or parish. These requirements have been clearly defined in the attached signed letter by Bishop Longin (see attached Exhibit 'D'), and, by the nature of Orthodox Canon Law and the authority it extends to local jurisdictions, is the only list of requirements which must be followed in the design of St. Archangel Michael's new worship facility. i3 In closing, consider the examples of other Serbian Orthodox churches, both in the US and in the "old country", which consists of Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and adjacent lands in which Serbs have lived for one and a half millennia. None of these churches look like a house, and rightly so; a church is not supposed to look like a house, as their functions are completely and fundamentally different. Thus, heights should not be constrained to B CAA t~ Mr. John Livingstone St. Archangel Michael Serbian Orthodox Church CUP Resubmittal Page 7 of 7 residential heights. Making it lower in height will damage the architectural beauty of the design. Altering the proposed design interferes with the way Orthodox Christians worship in the manner which best serves their Faith and its worship practices. The practice of Orthodoxy requires height in order to have adequate wall space for frescos, openness, sound quality, and the imperative feeling of majestic beauty. If accepted as designed, this Church will prove to be one of the most beautiful buildings in Saratoga and the surrounding area, and will be sure to enhance the City's cultural and architectural landscape in a way that other buildings would simply not be able to do. Due to its cultural richness, remarkable symbolism, architectural purity, and strikingly simple beauty, this building truly does have the potential to become a beloved landmark in the City of Saratoga.

The church building as a permanent structure must fundamentally meet the congregation's need for the total experience of a living temple for joint prayer -receiving the Eucharist, partaking in the other sacramental Holy Mysteries and the regular celebration of the Orthodox Christian Liturgy. It must also fundamentally be able to accommodate occasional and special.pazish needs, including weddings, funerals, Christmas and Easter observance, major and minor patron saint day celebrations and other Church holidays. Orthodox churches are not mere gathering places but signify and make visible the Church.living in this place, the dwelling of God with men reconciled and united in Christ. Basic architecture. Mandatory elements of the building included as separate areas are the Altar, Nave, artd-Narthex. Conditions permitting, the church building should have four cupolas and a V""` -~ bell tower; at a minimum it must include one cupola of appropriate height and a bell tower, each surmounted by a Cross. Church bells are to mark the beginning of each Divine Liturgy. Verticality_ The building's vertical architectural elements are to dominate the horizontal, as they must reinforce a heavenward aspiration of bringing the heavenly Jerusalem down to the faithful in this sacred space. Accordingly, to achieve this effect, the ceiling and cupola are to be of height strictly proportional to the base footprint of length and width.

CONSENT CALENDAR There were no Consent Calendar Items. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 2 *** PUBLIC HEARING -ITEM NO. 1 APPLICATION #06-314 (5.03-75-0171 SABELLA, 21771 Congress Hall: -The applicant requests an exemption to fence requirements enclosure of an area in excess of 4,000 sq. ft. in Hillside Residential Districts to allow for construction of 6-foot high fence, consisting of both chain link and tubular steel, enclosing approximately 11,251 sq. ft. of the rear yard. The lot size is 48,447 square-feet and the.site is zoned Hillside Residential (HR). (Therese Schmidt) Associate Planner Therese Schmidt presented the staff report as follows: • Advised that the applicant is seeking an exception to fencing requirements to allow an enclosure in excess of 4,000 square feet on a Hillside Residential District. • Described the proposed fence as being five-feet high tubular steel. The request has been reduced to one that would enclose 8,651 square feet of a 48,000 square foot lot. Additionally, the original proposal consisted of a combination chain link and tubular steel. When advised by staff that chain link fencing was prohibited in this Zoning District, the applicant changed the fencing materials to consist only of tubular steel. • Stated that staff is recommending denial of this exception and that no CEQA review has been done nor is required. • Informed that Section 15-29.020-c allows a Fencing Exception to be granted by the Planning Commission for an enclosed area in excess of the 4,000 square feet allowed under the Hillside Zoning. • Reported that staff is unable to make any of the three required findings to support this exception. One finding allows an exception if it can be demonstrated that visibility of fencing can be reduced by existing topography, landscaping, etc. That is not the case here. Another finding would allow an exception if said fencing is needed for safety reasons. Since there is already required fencing around the pool that already exceeds 4,000 square feet in enclosed area, this finding is not met. Another required finding might be that an exception has been granted for a neighborhood area. That is not the case here. • Added that this fencing request is not in compliance with the intent of the General Plan for rural areas. There are visual impacts. It is not in compliance with the Hillside Specific Plan. • Recommended denial. Commissioner Hlava asked if just one or all three findings had to be made. Planner Therese Schmidt replied at least one of the three required findings must be made in the affirmative. Chair Rodgers asked about CEQA requirements if the Commission elects to grant this fence exception. Planner Therese Schmidt said that it would fall under a Categorical Exemption but deferred this to the City Attorney. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 3 City Attorney Jonathan Wittwer said that this is request clearly falls under Categorical Exemption. Chair Rodgers opened the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 1. Mr. Jerry, Reed Associates Architects: • Explained that the Sabellas came to him a couple of years ago to design a pool that works well with the Hillside. • Said that they are concerned about the current fence location and approval for fear that it could look like a cage or sports court and would distort views. • Reported that one neighbor describes it as San Quentin. • Said that if the approved fencing were installed in the approved location, it would be visible from many locations. • Assured that it would be less visible if it were to be relocated as they are requesting this evening. • Pointed out that only 17 percent of this land would be enclosed within fencing. • Added that as proposed, the fencing would not impede the migration patterns of wildlife. • Stated that this proposal this evening is the best alternative for the community. Commissioner Cappello asked for clarification as the drawing states that one of the reasons why this proposed fencing is required is due to sloping terrain. At one point in the fencing area, it is felt that it would be easy for a child to hop the fence and access the pool. Mr. Jerry said yes, they wanted to avoid that possibility. He added that the fencing would not be visible as they are proposing tonight. Ms. Lori Burns, Resident on Congress Springs Lane: • Stated that she is on the Board of the Saratoga Heights Homeowners Association. • Pointed out that there are covenants in the CC&Rs that require changes to architecture be funneled through the Homeowners Association's Architectural Review Board. • Advised that there has been no contact by the applicant to the HOA about this project. Neighbors have not been directly involved and that is a significant problem. • Asked that the Commission take the existing CC&Rs into consideration. • Pointed out that many people these days are considering solar panels. That issue would also need to be considered by the HOA Architectural Review Board. Commissioner Zhao asked Ms. Lori Burns if she has seen the fencing design. Ms. Lori Burns replied no. She added that a message has been sent to all owners reminding them of the need to use the HOA's Architectural Review Board for any architectural changes to their property. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 4 Director John Livingstone pointed out that CC&Rs are a private matter between property owners. It is the homeowner's responsibility to deal with their HOA. The City does not enforce the CC&Rs. He added that a pool is an over-the-counter permit as long as it meets Code and such permits are issued without Planning Commission review or noticing. Ms. Lori Burns said that she understands that the City is not mandated to enforce CC&Rs. She recounted about one neighbor who needed to obtain neighbor sign-offs in order to change rooflines so it seems odd that neighbor sign off was not required in this case. She said that owners should be encouraged by staff to contact their HOA. Chair Rodgers asked if 500-foot notification distances are determined at ground level or as the crow flies. Director John Livingstone replied as the crow flies. Chair Rodgers advised Ms. Lori Burns that this is the time to express specific objections and asked if she has anything else to add. Ms. Lori Burns said the City might want to consider changing its process in order to require HOA notification. Commissioner Kundtz said that in his experience CC&Rs are recorded and attached to a property's deed. Chair Rodgers asked- the City Attorney to address the issue of City enforcement of CC&Rs. She added that this Commission does consider neighborhood input. Ms. Lori Burns offered the HOA to be used for other decisions to be made in the future. Commissioner Hlava said that she. understands the concerns of the HOA having once been active on an HOA. She asked Ms. Lori Burns if the HOA wishes it had been consulted before the pool was approved. She asked Ms. Burns if she has an opinion one way or the other on the issue of this proposed fence exception. Ms. Lori Burns said that what has been described this evening is different than the description on the notice. Mr. Bob Commins: • Said that he has three concerns including the CC&Rs and HOA, the variations between the description on the mailed notice and that description given during the staff report this evening and the neighbor notification form requirements. • Said that the applicant gave him a form to sign that certifies that he has reviewed the plans and has no objection. • Stated that he is an engineer, "Show me something with more substance." • Added that not enough information has been provided to neighbors to respond to this request to sign off on a consent form. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 5 Planner Therese Schmidt: • Advised that the applicant made changes to their plan after the noticing went out. However, the proposed changes are a reduction so did not require renoticing. • Pointed out that the notice advised the public that the project plans were available at City Hall for their review. • Added that the site was also staked and flagged to outline the proposed fencing for about a week or two. Chair Rodgers asked Mr. Bob Commins if he asked the applicant to see the plans. Mr. Bob Commins said that while he talked to the applicant he saw no plans. Ms. Deborah Sabella, Applicant and Property Owner: • Apologized to the HOA. • Pointed out that she understands there has been just one HOA meeting in the last eight years and that she never received formal by-laws. • Advised that she spoke with Mr. Bob Commins two weeks ago and tried to outline her plans to him. At that time, he did not seem to have a problem with the proposal. • Added that she followed up with a letter and explained that no chain link fencing would . be used and also provided her phone number. • Said that she spoke with Mrs. Commins who said she thought this fence was lovely. • Added that she saw Mr. Commins today and he didn't express concerns. • Assured that she would have provided plans to Mr. Commins if he had asked to see them. • Stated that she has tried to do the right thing here and made the enclosed area small and used better materials. • Said that she doesn't want to look at anything ugly either. Commissioner Cappello: • Expressed appreciation for the efforts made by Ms. Sabella. • Said that the three required findings are based upon visibility and impact on views, safety and previous Planning Commission approval. • Stated that he does not see any safety issues. • Asked Ms. Sabella if-she believes there is a potential safety issue in one area. Ms. Deborah Sabella replied yes. There is one area near the existing patio walls. She added that she believes their new plan presented tonight is more discrete and less visible. Commissioner Zhao asked for the height of the patio wall. Mr. Jerry replied two to two-and-a-half feet. Commissioner Zhao asked if the proposed fence would be eight feet at that location. Mr. Jerry explained that an area is created that can easily be climbed over with the existing approved proposal but that problem would be corrected with tonight's proposal. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 6 Commissioner Kundtz asked Ms. Deborah Sabella if she was previously aware of the CC&Rs. Ms. Deborah Sabella said she is aware of them now. Today is the first day she heard about them. She added that she was living on the east coast when this house was purchased so she is not sure if she ever saw CC&Rs at the time of purchase. Chair Rodgers closed the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 1. Commissioner Cappello asked staff to clarify that it does not believe there is a safety concern with the already approved fencing plan. Planner Therese Schmidt said that the applicant does have an option to go up to six-foot height in that area of concern in order to correct any anticipated problems there. Commissioner Cappello asked staff to clarify -that it does not perceive there to be a current safety concern. Planner Therese Schmidt replied not that staff is aware of. Director John Livingstone said that five-foot high fencing is what is required to keep small children safely away from pools. Commissioner Kundtz: • Advised that he is torn on this issue. • Stated that the Commission does not rule based on the CC&Rs but that he does believe that people should comply with CC&Rs when they are in place. • Pointed out that staff's recommendation is for denial of this request. • Said that the current approved plan is an eyesore. • Stated that a solution is need that meets the safety standard and softens the approach. • Said he wants to support this. Commissioner Hlava: • Said that she is not sure there is a safety issue to be addressed here. • Stated that she is real sure that this is not the way the Hillside is supposed to look. • Reminded that this property is already over the maximum of fencing enclosure area allowed with the existing fencing surrounding the pool. • Said that it might be better to run the fence along the property line where oleanders are available to screen it but realizes that is not allowed. • Said that she can make the finding based on visibility as what is proposed here is better than the already-approved fencing plan. Chair Rodgers reminded that -staff has said in the report that planting plants and shrubs creates an artificial screen further affecting the area. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 7 Commissioner Hlava said that she does not see how screening landscaping can have more of an impact that a wrought iron fence. Commissioner Cappello asked what if-the staff recommendation was to be denied? Would a Variance be required to proceed with the proposal for fencing made by the applicant? Planner Therese Schmidt said no, a Fence Exception and not a Variance is what is used for this request. Findings for a Fence Exception are less stringent that those findings required supporting a Variance. Commissioner Zhao: • Said that she too is torn on this issue. • Stated that she agrees with the staff report and cannot make the required findings on the issue of safety. • Added that any fence can be climbed over. It is only intended to keep young children safely away from the pool. • Reiterated that she agrees with the staff recommendation to deny this exception. Chair Rodgers asked if this Fence Exception is denied tonight would the original fencing i already approved for this property be reinstated? '"' Planner Therese Schmidt re lied es. P Y Chair Rodgers asked if the Commission could modify the existing approval. Planner Therese Schmidt said that the planting requirements could be modified to soften the impacts. The applicant can be required to use non-metallic paint. Alternately, the Commission can elect to modify tonight's request to allow a Fence Exception but for a much smaller area. Chair Rodgers: • Said that she agrees with all others on the issue of safety. She cannot make the finding. • Agreed with staff on the issue of reduced visibility as a result of topography and features of the site. • Said that she does not like the approved fencing plan that looks like Versailles. • Stated that she does not like to see large amounts of land on the Hillside fenced in. • Added that the Ordinance limitations are there for a reason. • Said that apart from the fencing needed to secure the pool, excessive fencing would create an atmosphere that is not currently found on the Hillside district. • Said that she cannot vote to approve this fence using vines to create a visual barrier. • .Reminded that there is significant migration of wildlife in this area. Commissioner Cappello: Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 8 • Stated that he agrees with the previous statements made and he also agrees with the staff findings. • Said he has a problem in that he does not like the design and will deny this request for an Exception. • Advised that he would like to see this applicant go back and work with her HOA Architectural Review Committee as required by the CC&Rs. • Suggested that the applicant come back with a design that does not require an Exception. Chair Rodgers asked about conditions for denial. City Attorney Jonathan Wittwer clarified that this applicant has an approved fence plan. They can choose to go ahead and build according to that plan. They also have the option to work with their HOA. Director John Livingstone explained that the options for the Commission are to approve, deny or continue this matter. Commissioner Cappello said he couldn't approve this Exception as it stands today due to an inability to make the required findings. Commissioner Zhao said she couldn't make the findings. Chair Rod ers asked if the Commission- wants to go with-the staff recommendation or to 9 approve something with conditions to reduce enclosed area. Commissioner Zhao said she prefers a modified plan but is not sure. Chair Rodgers said that if the Commissioner agrees with staff's recommendation, they can deny this request and the approved fencing plan remains in effect. Alternately, the Commission can. approve the current proposed application with modifications. Director John Livingstone agreed as long as it is clearly articulated to staff so they can work with the applicant. Commissioner Cappello said that what is before the Commission is an Exception to the Ordinance for a new fence design that is based upon three required findings that he cannot make. He said he would have to deny this request. He cannot approve it with redesign options. Commissioner Kundtz suggested that the applicant be asked if they are willing to accept a continuance to give them time to work with their HOA. Mr. Jerry: • Said they have lost a lot of time. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 9 • Added that if they were not successful in obtaining this Exception tonight, the construction on the already approved fencing plan would start tomorrow as his clients are having a graduation party at their home soon. • Reported that countless hours have been spent on options and that there is not a lot that they can do at this point. They have brought the fence in as much as possible. There are not a lot of alternatives. Motion: Upon motion of Commissioner Cappello, seconded by Commissioner Zhao, the Planning Commission adopted a Resolution DENYING an exception to fence requirements to allow the enclosure of approximately 11,251 square feet with a six foot high fence on property located at 21771 Congress Hall, by the following roll call vote: AYES:Cappello, Rodgers and Zhao NOES: Hlava and Kundtz ABSENT: Kundtz and Nagpal ABSTAIN: None *** PUBLIC HEARING -ITEM N0.2 APPLICATION #06-351 (386-10-007) FANG, 18480 Prospect Road: - Request for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a Dental Office in an existing tenant space located in a Commercial Neighborhood Zoning District. (Suzanne Thomas) Assistant Planner Suzanne Thomas presented the staff report as follows: • Stated the applicant is seeking a Conditional Use Permit to allow the establishment of a dental office in an existing commercial space located at the Big Tree Shopping Center. • Explained that a Use Permit is required under Section 15-19.030. • Added that this center has two anchor tenants, See's and Round Table Pizza. Another Internet business that was previously located in the subject tenant space, The-Zone, closed a year ago. • Advised that this is a difficult space to lease for retail use. It has limited window display area for such a large tenant space that consists of approximately 2,300 square feet. • Said that it is believed that a dental office will benefit the center and bring new clients. • Informed that the neighbors were notified and that no comments -were received. • Outlined the operational hours as 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays. There would be four employees. • Described the parking as consisting of 56 spaces. Dental practices require one parking space for every 200 square feet of tenant space. That is the same ratio as for retail use. • Said that staff surveyed the parking area and found it to be adequate. There were usually 20 to 30 vacant spaces available at any given time. • Said that a new sign would be installed within the existing casing. It would be illuminated between dusk and midnight. • Added that this dental practice would serve both children and adults. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 10 • Recommended approval and advised that this would be the only dental -office in this shopping center. It would not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of the community. • Said that the required findings to support this Use Permit can be made in the affirmative. • Recommended the adoption of a resolution approving this Use Permit. • Advised that the applicant is present and available for questions. Commissioner Kundtz expressed concern that limiting this practice to four employees may be too restrictive in the future. Planner Suzanne Thomas suggested bringing this issue up with the applicant. Commissioner Hlava asked if the restrooms serving this space also serve the pizza restaurant. Planner Suzanne Thomas deferred this question to the applicant. Chair Rodgers opened the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 2. Dr. Fang, Applicant: • Advised that he is a five-year dentist. • Said that the restrooms are part of the complex but are. not shared with the pizza parlor. • Said that for the first four years,~they are likely to have staffing at just four people. One is his wife, also a dentist, who will practice with him. • Added that they might expand the practice in the future so there may be more than four staff in the future. Commissioner Kundtz said that the Use Permit should not limit the Use Permit to four staff. Director John Livingstone said that there are no staffing limitations outlined in the Resolution. City Attorney Jonathan Wittwer added that the noticing did not place staffing limitations either. Dr. Fang advised that he is returning home. He grew up here and his parents are still here. Commissioner Kundtz saluted Dr. Fang's brilliance in locating his dental practice next to a candy store. Commissioner Hlava said she was interested in hearing what the building owner plans to do in the future as far as aesthetic improvements to the building such as painting. Chair Rodgers cautioned that the application under consideration is a dental practice Use Permit. Conditions won't be placed on this applicant for exterior building improvements. Dr. Fang assured that he would be developing astate-of--the-art dental office. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes #or May 24, 2006 Page 11 Commissioner Cappello said that this is the second dental practice that recently has been considered by this Commission for establishment within a typically retail area. He asked Dr. Fang what brings him to a retail area versus a typical medical office area. Dr. Fang replied exposure. People pass by. It is difficult to compete these days and dentists are moving out of office suites and retail space is the best option today. Mr. Mike McGuire, Property Owners Representative: • Stated that he is a realtor with 10 years of involvement in leasing this building. • Said that this tenant space is the problem child. Its frontage is small but the tenant space itself is big. • Pointed out that this center is unique. It is not visible when traveling west on Prospect toward Lawrence. Chair Rodgers asked Mr. Mike McGuire if there are any retail uses that could be pursued for this space. Mr. Mike McGuire said not at the size of this space. It is too big for most retail. Commissioner Zhao asked what previous tenants occupied this space. Mr. Mike McGuire said there was asecond-hand store, the internet business called The Zone, as well as the temporary use of the space .for the sale of antiques by Bensons. Commissioner Zhao asked if after-school tutoring programs such as Kuman had ever been considered. Mr. Mike McGuire said he appreciates the lead but is not sure how traffic flow and circulation on site would work for such a use that requires the drop off of children. Mr. John Seagull, Property Owner: • Explained that he bought this center in 1976 and has now owned it for 30 years. • Said that filling small tenant spaces is never a problem but this tenant space has always been a problem. It has never successfully operated as a true retail and is often vacant. • Described some of the previous tenants including a church for one year, a consignment used clothing store for about two years; a sewing and embroidery class for about three years and an antique business that was very successful there but was only paying about 43 cents a square foot in rent. An Internet business lasted less than one year likely because this is too affluent an-area to support it. • Said that when Dr. Fang applied, they felt he represented the perfect solution for this corner tenant space. • Added that they had tried to split the space in the past but it didn't work out. • Reiterated that he believes that a dental office is perfect for this spot. They would be a stable tenant and provide a different type of visitor that would be a big help for the other tenants in the center. • Added that the parking demands for a dental office are modest. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 12 • Pointed out that the single-story structure is better for elderly and/or disabled dental patients to access their dentist's office. • Reported that this See's in this center is the second best selling .location in the entire chain. • Explained that he has plans for painting the building tan with white trim and amber doors. • Said that the big tree in front of Kraegan's blocks the signage on this site. • Said that while a parapet has been suggested to obscure the roof-mounted HVAC unit, he had a new $50,000 roof installed five years ago. He is reluctant to penetrate that roof. • Said he is available for any questions. Chair Rodgers closed the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 2. Commissioner Cappello said he liked the concept and can appreciate the benefits of a dental office in a retail location. He said that since there have been difficulties in filling this spot with a retail use, he can make the required findings to support this Use Permit. Commissioner Zhao said she agrees with the report and can make the findings to support this request. Commissioner Hlava said she too agrees about the Use Permit but also feels that new signage should be considered by the owner in the future to upgrade this center. Chair Rodgers said she agreed with the comments made by the others and is excited by the concept of a dental office being located here. Motion: Upon motion of Commissioner Hlava, seconded by Commissioner Cappello, the Planning Commission adopted a Resolution approving a Conditional Use Permit (Application #06-351) to allow a dental office in an existing tenant space within a Commercial/Neighborhood Zoning District on properly located at 18480 Prospect Road, by the following roll call vote: AYES:Cappello, Hlava, Kundtr, Rodgers and Zhao NOES: None ABSENT: Hunter and Nagpal ABSTAIN: None *** PUBLIC HEARING -ITEM N0.3 APPLICATION #06-092 (389-46-006) HANEY, 13397 Sousa Lane: -Staff has denied a tree removal request from the applicant to remove one deodar cedar tree on the subject property. The applicant is appealing Staffs denial to the Planning Commission. (Kate Bear) City Arborist Kate Bear presented the staff report as follows: • Advised that the appellant has prepared a packet of information for the Commissioners. • Explained that the appellant is appealing the administrative denial of a Tree Removal Permit. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 13 • Said that this property owner applied for a Tree Removal Permit on March 14, 2006, to remove a deodar cedar tree. • Reported that staff was unable to make the findings to approve this request and therefore denied it. • Added that the problem expressed by this property owner was that the tree drops limbs. Staff believes that this problem can be corrected with proper pruning of this tree. • Said that this owner elected to appeal that denial to the Planning Commission. • Stated that neighbors within 500 feet were notified and no comments were received. The applicant has provided several letters from her neighbors. • Recommended denial of this appeal and informed that a revised Resolution has been distributed this evening. .- Commissioner Hlava asked staff what is different with the revised Resolution. Arborist Kate Bear replied that it has been edited to reflect that the required findings should be met over all and not just simply one of them. Commissioner Zhao asked staff for feedback on the two arborist reports provided by the applicant this evening. Arborist Kate Bear said she had seen one of them before and the second for the first time tonight. She said that she wanted to be conservative in her approach to this request and wants to see pruning attempted before approving a removal. Chair Rodgers asked Arborist Kate Bear if she had a chance to review the second report this evening. Arborist Kate Bear replied yes. This was prepared by a good competent arborist and contains good information. He says that he cannot guarantee that limbs will not fall from this tree and that is true. Chair Rodgers asked about the liability issue and how it relates to the Commission's discussion of this request. City. Attorney Jonathan Wittwer said that the specific findings must be considered but that damage to property can be considered. Chair. Rodgers opened the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 3. Ms. Diane Haney, Appellant and Property Owner: • Explained that she brought the new material to City Hall at 5 p.m. today for the Commissioners to review and consider. • Said that she had the opportunity to speak to several of the Commissioners at the site visit and just picked up the Mitchell arborist report late yesterday. • Added that she secured this second report when City Arborist Kate Bear denied her first report. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 14 • Stated that this tree is not safe and both of her arborist reports say- that limbs can fall down. This is a hazardous tree from which large branches have fallen in the past. • Said that overall she has discussed this tree with five arborists, including Mr. Coate and Mr. Babby. • Pointed out that both of the reports she provided this evening say the same thing, nothing will stop this tree from dropping its branches. Branches up to 20 feet long have fallen. One weighed about 300 pounds and required a chain saw to cut up and the debris filled an entire pickup truck. • Recounted that in March another large branch was hanging and had to be removed. It costs lots of money and has caused damage to their roof by cracking roof tiles. • Said that this tree has dropped branches over at least 44 years as recounted by neighbors. • Said that per page 3 of Mr. Mitchell's report, it is possible that damage occurred to this tree during construction about eight years ago. It is subject to failure without warning. This may be caused by changes in weather and moisture. • Informed that her young grandchild can't play in the yard and that's not fair. She is even afraid to go out into the yard to mow the lawn and does the job quickly. • Said that this is resulting in their not using their yard. That impact meets the required finding. • Stated that there has been damage to property and they can't use their yard. There is potential of harm to people. • Agreed that this tree is beautiful. • Said that she is willing to plant six replacEment trees. • Stated that she feels very unsafe with this tree on her property so close to her house. • Pointed out that one neighbor a few years ago was allowed to remove the same species of tree immediately and without a permit or arborist report when just one branch fell. • Said that she is deathly afraid of that tree. While Kate Bear wants to trim it to see if it solves the problem, she has two arborists who say that this tactic will not work. Previous owners had the tree trimmed twice. • Reported that they bought this house "as is" and there was a branch on the roof at the time that they had to remove themselves. They were not aware of the ongoing problem with dropping branches. Chair Rodgers explained to Ms. Diane Haney that the Tree Ordinance changed in recent years after quite a bit of debate. There is a different process in place now. Chair Rodgers closed the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 3. Commissioner Hlava asked what replacements would be required if this tree is removed. Arborist Kate Bear said that typically removed trees are replaced. Particular size and species for the replacement(s) trees can be specified. Chair Rodgers asked about the oak from the rear yard that was removed and if it too would be replaced. If the Commission decides to allow removal of this cedar, would it be replaced with a native species tree? Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 15 Arborist Kate Bear advised that she told the Haneys that they would need to replace the oak removed from the rear yard with a 24-inch box native tree from the list. It could be conditioned that the replacement tree for the cedar also be a cedar. Commissioner Cappello asked if cedars typically have this problem of dropping branches. Arborist Kate Bear replied that they are not more prone than any other species to drop branches. This tree has been incorrectly pruned in the past. She hopes that if correctly pruned over the next couple of years, this tree would stop dropping branches. Commissioner Zhao asked how long it might take to see the results of proper pruning. Arborist Kate Bear replied right away. If the tree is pruned now and drops limbs in the next winter storm than the effort did not work but she said she believes pruning would work. Commissioner Hlava pointed out that two arborists have said that pruning will not solve this problem. She asked Arborist Kate Bear what she thinks about that. Arborist Kate Bear said that sometimes professionals disagree on a solution. It is accurate that two arborists have differed from her recommendation. Chair Rodgers said it appears the tree may not be at its natural grade. Arborist Kate Bear said that doesn't sound familiar. Chair Rodgers asked Arborist Kate Bear if she can see construction related damage to this tree. Arborist Kate Bear replied no. Chair Rodgers asked if this is a drought tolerant tree and if perhaps wet weather harms the tree. Arborist Kate Bear said that the tree does well in drought tolerant conditions. Chair Rodgers asked if there is no drought are there problems with this tree. Arborist Kate Bear said there might be root rot problems but not dropped limbs as a result of wet weather. Chair Rodgers asked about the tarpaper that had been wrapped around the trunk of this tree and whether it caused damage to the tree. Arborist Kate Bear said that the tarpaper had no impact. There was no damage detected once the tarpaper was removed. She was told that this tarpaper was there to keep squirrels off the tree. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 16 Commissioner Zhao asked staff to clarify the findings required and how many must be met. Arborist Kate Bear replied that not just one finding but all must be evaluated. While not all must be met, it should be more than just one. City Attorney Jonathan Wittwer said that a number of factors can be considered and some are more important than others in different conditions. The object is to apply and find which findings are more important and to decide overall what is the best course of action. Commissioner Kundtz: • Said he thought this was a beautiful tree. • Added that he can only find three findings (#3, 6 and 7) to support the staff recommendation and six findings that support the removal including an inability to enjoy the use of property safely. The site has a number of healthy trees. It is a lovely and well-maintained property. • Said he could support removal conditioned upon suitable replacements. Commissioner Hlava: Said that she typically goes with the staff recommendation. However, if this were her house, she said she would be down here to take down this tree. Said that she wants to see the replacement installed for the oak removed from the rear yard as well as replacement for this proposed removal. The replacements should be native species that will look good and not create the same problem in the future. Commissioner Zhao agreed and said she too can make the findings about health and safety concerns. She said she has young children herself and can support removal of this tree with appropriate replacements. Commissioner Cappello: • Said he appears to have the minority opinion on this request. • Stated that trees have a value to the community and the Commission has the responsibility to the community to preserve trees~as much as possible. • Reminded that the City Arborist has told the Commission that the main reason this tree is dropping branches is because of improper pruning and that allowing this removal is setting precedent. Most trees drop limbs at one time or another. • Said that the City Arborist is paid to do a job and he values her recommendation and therefore he cannot approve this appeal. Chair Rodgers: • Stated her agreement with Commissioner Cappello. • Said that the tree canopy is important to all. • Reminded that a lot of effort went into the drafting of the Tree Ordinance. • Said that while she does not know if this tree can ultimately be save, she would like to see the effort made to do so before a removal is granted. Y _ Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 17 • Reiterated that this is a large beautiful tree that may thrive if given a chance with proper pruning. • Pointed out that five arborist reports were solicited by Ms. Haney and two supported removal. • Stated that there should be some provision that would allow the removal of this tree if damage continues despite pruning. • Said that she would vote to oppose this removal. • Asked how the motion should be crafted. Director John Livingstone suggested that when in doubt simply say motion to remove or save this-tree. Arborist Kate Bear explained valuation. This tree proposed for removal has been assessed a value of $20,000. Replacement trees are valued at $150- (15 gallon); $500 (24-inch box); $1,500 (36-inch box); and $5,000 (48-inch box). Ms. Diane Haney said that she is startled by that amount of valuation. She added that her property could not accommodate enough of the smaller sized trees to reach that valuation. Director John Livingstone said that if an applicant cannot accommodate the replacement trees on their property, they could pay into a tree fund used to place trees throughout the City. The Commission has the discretion to condition the size and value of replacement trees. Commissioner Kundtz said he is not comfortable imposing a $20,000 expense on these owners to allow removal of this tree. Commissioner Hlava said it is difficult to properly place trees to prevent such problems in the future. Commissioner Cappello said that this is a big beautiful 44-year old or likely even older tree. The arborist says there are not safety issues. Commissioner Kundtz expressed concern in the event the arborist is incorrect. He added that he still takes issue with the $20,000 replacement expense. Commissioner Cappello said that he is not there yet as far as allowing removal and replacement. He added that the $20,000 valuation reemphasizes the ,importance and value of this big beautiful tree. Commissioner Kundtz asked if there is some latitude in the valuation number. Director John Livingstone replied that the Commission has complete latitude on the replacement requirements. Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for May 24, 2006 Page 18 Commissioner Zhao said that she would like to leave it up to the City Arborist to decide on the appropriate replacement. Chair Rodgers -asked what about if the value appears excessive. Commissioner Zhao replied that is simply what it takes to remove such a large tree. Chair Rodgers said that the replacement requirement demonstrates that it is difficult to • remove trees in Saratoga. City Attorney Jonathan Wittwer reminded that the Commission has discretion, as does the City Arborist. The valuation is based upon ISA (International Society of Arborists) calculations. The Code says that the Arborist makes a decision on equivalent replacement based upon aesthetics and value. The applicant can appeal the Arborist's replacement requirements back to the Planning Commission. Commissioner Kundtz said that the applicant should be motivated to work with the Arborist. Motion: Upon motion of Commissioner Kundtr, seconded by Commissioner Hlava, the Planning Commission adopted a Resolution upholding an appeal and overturning the administrative denial of a tree removal request (Application #06- 092) for the removal of a deodar cedar tree on property located at 13397 Sousa Lane with the requirement that the applicant work with the City Arborist on replacement tree requirements, by the following roll call vote: AYES:HIava, Kundtr and Zhao NOES: Cappello and Rodgers ABSENT: Hunter and Nagpal ABSTAIN: None *** DIRECTOR'S ITEMS There were no Director's Items.

Construction commenced and continued for several years during which time the entire shell of the residence was completed, including all of the redwood siding and most of the stone veneer, along with all grading, retaining walls, and road construction. Work on the project ceased in approximately 2004. Pursuant to City Codes 16-15.030 and 15-45-090 (a), building permits expire if the work is suspended or abandoned for a period of 180 days. Expired permits may be reinstated within 180 days of expiration...provided that such suspension or abandonment has not exceeded one year. However, if a building permit expires and is not renewed, the Design Review approval also expires. The applicant has exceeded the one-year time and, for this reason, the approval for the project has expired. The applicant is now ready to resume construction and is requesting that the Planning Commission approve the following entitlements that were previously granted: (1) Design Review approval to construct a 6,769 square-foot, two-story residence; (2) Grading Exception approval to allow grading in excess of 1,000 cubic yards on each of the two lots; (3) Variance approval to allow retaining walls in excess of 5 feet in height; and (4) Use Permit approval to allow a water tank within the rear setback and an emergency generator. The combined project site is 10.8 acres and is located in the Hillside Residential zone. The original project includes two separate lots. One lot includes grading for a parking area and access road and the water tower, which was required as part of the original subdivision. The other lot includes the house and generator. These two lots are part of a five-lot subdivision, and both lots are developable. The original application combined the two projects. Staff is presenting them together with two separate resolutions, one for each lot. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve this application with attached conditions in order for.the applicant to finish the construction of the existing structure. STAFF ANALYSIS ZONING: Hillside Residential GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION: RHC (Hillside Conservation Single Family) MEASURE G: Not applicable PARCEL SIZE: Lot 1:4.617 acres/201,115 square feet (gross); 200,526 square feet (net) Lot 2: 6.204 acres/270,345 square feet (gross); 252,449 square feet (net) SLOPE: Lot 1:37.79% Lot 2: 45.28% Slope at building site: 11.35% Slope at pool at deck site: 29.78% GRADING REQUIRED: There will be approximately 3,300 cubic yards of cut (plus an additiona1850 cubic yards for the basement) and 800 cubic yards of fill. Please note that the cut needed for the basement is not considered as part of the grading amount pursuant to City Code 16-15.160 .Section 3309.1.1. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The proposed new single-family residence is Categorically Exempt from the Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15303, "New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures", Class 3 (a) of the Public Resources Code (CEQA). This exemption allows for the construction or conversion of up to three single-family residences. MATERIALS AND COLORS: The existing residence has vertical redwood siding with a stone veneer.

The geotechnical portion of the subdivision review determined that each of the five parcels had a viable building site. Trees The City Arborist reviewed ten arbor reports and site visit accounts ranging from July 9, 1998 to September 14, 2000. She also conducted a site visit and inspected the trees along the road, the trees azound the partially constructed house, and the newly planted trees that replaced those removed during construction. Per City Ordinance 15-50.080, a bond of $24,413 is in place for the project. The applicant has planted thirteen 36-inch box oaks, forty-two 24-inch bay trees, twenty-six 24-inch box redwoods, and sixteen 15-gallon redwoods. Additional trees are on site ready to be planted. They include two 36-inch box oaks, six 24-inch box -bays, one 24-inch box redwood, and twelve 15-gallon redwoods. Per the updated City Arborist report, dated May 24, 2006, the applicant should plant additional replacement trees equal in value to $81,096 on the property. The Arborist also recommends that the owner retain a certified azborist to provide recommendations for improving the health of trees #25, 26, 28-31, 34, 35, and 67-69 in particulaz and any other tree that begins to exhibit stress during construction. Those recommendations should be implemented throughout the remainder of the project. Tree protection fencing has fallen in some locations and should be reinstalled for the remainder of the construction. Geotechnical Clearance Geotechnical Clearance was granted with conditions when the project was approved in 1999. These conditions have been incorporated in the attached resolution. Neighbor Review Letters The applicant has contacted three of the surrounding neighbors and Staff has notified all parcels within 500 feet of the project. One neighbor expressed concern that the pazking area would be rented out for valet pazking to be used for concerts or parties, generating additional traffic in the neighborhood (Attachment 5). The home has been standing for an extended period of time, so the neighbors have had an opportunity to view any visual impacts. • LOT 1 [Identified on Subdivision Map as Lot 4] Design Review for Residence, Grading Exception, Variance for Retaining Wall Height, and Use Permit for Emergency Generator Design Review for Residence The applicant is proposing and has begun construction on a 6,769 square-foot, two-story residence. The new home is situated on a lot that is under the same ownership as the adjacent lot to the south. The home does not exceed 26 feet in height and includes a 1,921 square-foot basement. A pool and terrace are being constructed adjacent to the residence. All internal walls are framed and the roof and redwood siding are complete. Portions of the Bouquet Canyon stone on the exterior have also been completed. Wooden retaining walls for the access road and cul-de-sac are in, and all concrete, block, and stone retaining walls are built. Staff finds -that the proposed home, which is in the modern design, is compatible with the neighborhood. The residence follows the contour of the hill and the stone and redwood exterior blend with the rural environment. General Plan Findings The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan, including the following Policies: Conservation Element Policy 6.0 -Protect the existing rural atmosphere of Saratoga by carefully considering the visual impact of new development. The proposal will expand the City's housing stock and will protect the rural atmosphere of Saratoga by utilizing an existing large parcel for asingle-family home. The proposal will not block the views of the surrounding hills from neighboring parcels. The proposed architectural style is very compatible with the low-density ambiance of the neighborhood and the zoning designation in which the property is located. The applicant has planted 97 trees and has 21 additional trees onsite ready for planting. Land Use Element Policy S.0 -The City shall use the design review process to assure that the new construction and major additions thereto are compatible with the site and the adjacent surroundings. As conditioned, Staff recommends that the Planning Commission find that the application meets the Findings required for Design Review Approval. Design Review Findings The proposed project is consistent with all the following Design Review findings stated in MCS 15-45.080: (a) Avoid unreasonable interference with -views and privacy. The project has been designed in a manner that minimizes interference with views and privacy to adjacent properties. The home follows the contour of the hill and is designed with a stone and redwood finish that blends with the rural environment. (b) Preserve Natural Landscape. Applicant has made design choices that reduce. the number of impacted trees, including using a smaller number of high retaining walls rather than several short ones and working with the fire district to reduce the required width of the road and driveway, thereby reducing impervious surface. Per the Arborist report, the applicant will plant replacement trees and retain a certified arborist to help improve the health of the existing trees. (c) Preserve Native and Heritage Trees. All Arborist report recommendations have been made conditions of approval of the project to ensure a high degree of survival for all trees retained on site. (d) Minimize perception of excessive bulk. Architectural details such as varied rooflines, varied and recessed wall planes, stone trim, and redwood siding create architectural interest and reduce mass and bulk. (e) Compatible bulk and height. The proposed residence is set back almost 400 feet from the front property line and is comparable in size to other homes in the area. The home follows the contour of the hill with a height of 21.5 feet. (f) Current grading and erosion control methods. Grading for the home, walls, and roads have been completed. All future grading would conform to the City's current grading and erosion control methods. The applicant is required to maintain storm water on site, where feasible. (g) Design policies and techniques. The proposed project conforms to all of the applicable design policies and techniques in the Residential Design Handbook in terms of compatible bulk and avoidance of avoiding unreasonable interference with privacy and views as detailed in the findings above. Grading Exception Pursuant to 15-13.050(f), the combined cut and fill of any grading in the Hillside Residential district shall not exceed one thousand cubic yards, excluding basement excavation, unless the Planning Commission approves the exception. The original proposal called for 3,300 cubic yards of grading on Lot 1 (plus 850 cubic yards for the basement). The grading was approved and has now been completed. Approximately two-thirds of this grading was necessary due to the length and steepness of the 0.1 mile driveway and the driveway turnaround, which was required by the fire district. The proposed project is consistent with City Code 15-13.050, in which the Planning Commission may grant an exception to 1,000 cubic foot restriction if all of the following findings can be made: • (a) The additional grading is necessary in order to allow reasonable development of the property or to achieve a reasonable means of access to the building site. The steep and lengthy 0.1-mile driveway and the turnaround required by the fire district necessitated a significant portion of the grading. (b) The natural landforms and vegetation are being preserved and protected. The road width has been minimized in order to reduce the amount of grading and tree removal required for development. All Arborist.report recommendations have been made conditions of approval of the project to ensure a high degree of survival for all trees retained on site. (c) The increased grading is necessary to promote the compatibility of the construction with the natural terrain. Consistent with the City's hillside development standards, the design used cut rather than fill to integrate the home into the hillside rather than out and beyond the hillside terrain. (d) The increased grading is necessary to integrate an architectural design into the topography. The home follows the contour of the hillside, thereby reducing bulk. and height. (e) The increased grading is necessary to reduce the prominence of the construction as viewed from surrounding views or from distant community views. By cutting into the hill, the home blends into the .surrounding environment and minimizes any impact on the viewscape. (f) No building site shall be graded so as to create a flat visible pad surrounding the main residential structure. This project minimizes any flat pads that surround the main residential structure. Variance The original proposal requested Variance approval to allow retaining wall height in excess of that permitted by Code. Variance approval was granted and all walls have been constructed. Per Section 15-29.020(b) of the City Code, the combined height of parallel walls within a horizontal distance of thirty feet shall not exceed 10 feet. The applicant requested variance approval for several parallel walls that were to be constructed adjacent to the residence and that would exceed this height limitation. It was determined that because of the steepness of the slope, constructing the walls at a shorter height would not have been sufficient to hold back the ground and locating the walls farther apart would have necessitated cutting deeply into the hillside, removing additional trees. The proposed project is consistent with City Code 15-70.060, in which the Planning Commission may grant a Variance if all of the following findings can be made: (a) That because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, strict enforcement of the specified regulation would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the vicinity and classified in the same zoning district. Although the City Code requires shorter retaining walls, the topography of this parcel is such that the strict enforcement of this requirement would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by adjacent properties in the vicinity. (b) That the granting of the variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity and classified in the same zoning district. The proposed retaining walls would not constitute a special privilege in that the topography of the lot constitutes a physical hardship specific to this site, and that allowing these walls would not be a special privilege. (c) That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The proposed retaining walls would not be detrimental to public health, safety, or welfare or injurious to properties in the area in that it will protect individuals and properties from slides, and will not result in a negative impact on properties in the area. Use Permit The original application requested Use Permit approval for an emergency generator. The permit was- approved and the generator pad and adjacent wall have been constructed. Pursuant to City Code 15-80.030(k), emergency generators require a Conditional Use Permit and must comply with setback and noise requirements. Section 7-30.040(a) requires that exterior residential noise levels shall not exceed 60 dBA during the day, 50 dBA in the evening, and 45 dBA during the night. During the original application phase in 1999, the Planning Commission was concerned about the potential noise from the proposed emergency generator. The applicant's acoustical consultant calculated that with the proposed wall adjacent to the generator, the resulting noise level at the nearest property line (83.7 feet) would be less than 25 dBA. For comparison, whispering at 5 feet can be measured at 20 dBA and a soft whisper at 30 dBA (Attachment 6). Although the generator was not yet in place, the consultant conducted an onsite demonstration for members of the Land Use Committee by using a simulation of the projected noise level. The Use Permit was then approved. The proposed project is consistent with City Code 15-55-030, in which the Planning Commission may grant Use Permit approval if all of the following findings can be made: (a) That the proposed location of the conditional use is in accord with the objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and the purposes of the district in which the site is located. The use of the generator for emergency use only will help to preserve Saratoga as a residential community with a rural atmosphere. (b) That the proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The proposed acoustic level of the emergency generator meets the City Code requirements for noise levels. (c) That the proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of Chapter 1 S of the City Code (Zoning Regulations). The generator meets the requirements for setbacks and noise and is in full compliance with the provisions of Chapter 15. (d) That the proposed conditional use will not adversely affect existing or anticipated uses in the immediate neighborhood or adversely affect surrounding properties or the occupants thereof. The generator will comply with the required noise limits, thereby not creating a nuisance. • • LOT 2 [Identified on Subdivision Map as Lot 5] Grading Exception, Variance for Retaining Wall Height, and Use Permit for Water Tank Height and Location Within Rear Setback Grading Exception Pursuant to 15-13.050(f), the combined cut and fill of any grading in the Hillside Residential district shall not exceed one thousand cubic yards unless the Planning Commission approves the exception. The original proposal involved grading in excess of 1,000 cubic yards to accommodate a parking area and a water tank system. The water tank system was required as a condition of the subdivision since it will supply fire protection water to all five lots in the subdivision. The grading for these projects was approved and has been completed. The proposed project is consistent with City Code 15-13.050, in which the Planning Commission may grant an exception to 1,000 cubic foot restriction if all of the following findings can be made: (a) The additional grading is necessary in order to allow reasonable development of the property or to achieve a reasonable means of access to the building site. The water tanks are a required element of the subdivision and need to be located on a site that is high in elevation, relative to the property, and that is relatively level. The area proposed for the parking area was identified on the subdivision map as the location for a future home site. The tanks and parking area are on two of the most level areas on the site, thereby reducing the amount of grading that is necessary. (b) The natural landforms and vegetation are being preserved and protected. The sites selected for the tank area and parking area/future home site area have gentle slopes, relative to the lot, and therefore will require less grading and help to preserve the natural landform. Several trees have been already been planted on the site and several others are onsite ready to be planted: The applicant will be retaining a certified arborist to improve the health of the trees. (c) The increased grading is necessary to promote the compatibility of the construction with the natural terrain. Grading is necessary to create a level area for stability of the water tanks and for the future home site/parking area. (d) The increased grading is necessary to integrate an architectural design into the topography. The grading lowers the profile of the parking area/future home site and water tank areas and provides a level foundation for each. (e) The increased grading is necessary to reduce the prominence of the construction as viewed from surrounding views or from distant community views. Grading lowers the overall height of the water tanks, thereby reducing the prominence of the construction as viewed from surrounding properties. The future home site/parking area uses cut rather than fill to integrate the future home into the hillside. (f) No building-site shall be graded so as to create a jlat visible pad surrounding the main residential structure. There is no residential structure on this lot at this time. However, the parking area is situated in the approximate location of the future home site, as identified on the subdivision map. Variance The original proposal requested Variance approval for retaining walls exceed the allowed height in the Hillside Residential district. Variance approval was granted and all walls have been constructed. Per 15-29-010(g), retaining walls on a hillside lot shall not exceed five feet in height. Variance approval was requested for the retaining walls adjacent to the water tanks. Because of the steep topography and the size of the water tanks, it was determined that a wall, approximately eight feet in height and located behind the water tank, would serve to cut the water tank into the site and was physically needed to construct the water tank at the desired location. The proposed project is consistent with City Code 15-70.060, in which the Planning Commission may grant a Variance if all of the following findings can be made: (a) That because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, strict enforcement of the specified regulation would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the vicinity and classified in the same zoning district. Although the City Code requires shorter retaining walls, the topography of this parcel is such that the strict enforcement of this requirement would deprive the applicant of the use of the water system for domestic water. It would also deprive the applicant and other subdivision residents of the fire protection that is enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity. (b) That the granting of the variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity and classified in the same zoning district. The proposed retaining walls would not constitute a special privilege in that the topography of the lot constitutes a physical hardship specific to this site. The water tanks are a necessary part of the subdivision that must be located uphill from the home sites. Their construction at this location requires them to be set into the hill, and because of the steep topography, that cut must be supported by a wall that is approximately eight feet in height. • i3 (c) That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The proposed retaining walls would not be detrimental to public health, safety, or welfare or injurious to properties in the area in that it will protect individuals and properties from slides, and will not result in a negative impact on properties in the area. Furthermore, the other lots on the subdivision could be impacted in regards to health, safety, and welfare if the applicant was unable to install the fire protection tank as required by the fire district. Use Permit The original application requested Use Permit approval for the height and location of the water tank system. This was approved and the water tank system is now in place. Pursuant to City Code 15-55.030, a Conditional Use may be permitted to allow for different structure height and yard requirements other than those permitted for the zoning district. The rear setback and height requirements for the Hillside Residential district are fifty feet from the property line and twelve feet in height pursuant to City Code 15-13.90(a) and 15-13.100(b), respectively. The original subdivision conditions of approval required that the applicant provide water tanks for both domestic use and fire protection. The 50,000-gallon fire protection tank is to supply all five lots in the subdivision. The water tank location was based on the engineering need to locate the tanks at a high elevation, relative to the subdivision; the determination that this location was one of the few relatively level areas on the designated lot; and the necessity for a large tank capacity to meet fire district requirements. The applicant requested and was granted approval of a Use Permit to allow two water tanks within the rear yard setback at a maximum height of 14 feet (six feet from the property line). The proposed project is consistent with all the following findings stated in City Code 15-55- 030, in which the Planning Commission may grant Use Permit approval if all of the following findings can be made: (a) That the proposed location of the conditional use is in accord with the objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and the purposes of the district in which the site is located. By providing the required fire protection for the subdivision, the water tank system protects public health and safety, property values, and the rural environment. The excess height of the tank is brought about by its 50,000-gallon capacity and its proximity to the property line is necessitated by the fact that it must be located at a fairly level spot that is at a high elevation, relative to the home sites. The tanks are located on one of the more gently sloping areas of the lot rather than on a steep, visually exposed site, and are screened by vegetation, thereby maintaining the rural character of the district. (b) That the proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The water tanks are situated in such a way that the fire protection tank can provide emergency -water to the other parcels in the subdivision, thereby promoting public health, safety, and welfare. (c) That the proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of Chapter 1 S of the City Code (Zoning Regulations). Because of the limited area that can be used for the water tanks and the need to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the residents, findings can be made to allow the tanks to be located in the proposed location, as described, and be in full compliance with the provisions of Chapter 15. (d) That the proposed conditional use will not adversely affect existing or anticipated uses in the immediate neighborhood or adversely affect surrounding properties or the occupants thereof. The water tanks are located in one corner of a large lot and are screened by vegetation. They will not adversely affect uses in the immediate neighborhood, but instead, will enhance safety in the area. Parking Area/Future Home site There is no room .for parking along the driveway, fire road, or along Peach Hill Road, and the fire district requested that the truck turnaround at the house on Lot 1 be kept free of automobile parking. The parcel with the house is a standalone parcel and does not require an adjacent parking area. However, the applicant requested approval for an overflow parking area to be located on the adjacent lot (Lot 2). The fire district commented on the proposed overflow parking area, stating, "To propose to develop a certain portion of the adjacent parcel for expanded parking would not negatively impact our response capability to your site. In fact, I presume it would aid our response to your site should the need ever occur" (Attachment 7). The Planning Commission denied the first request because of the size of the proposed retaining walls, the amount of grading and the potential impact on trees. The applicant submitted modified plans for a smaller area and these were approved by the Commission. The parking area/fizture home site has now been graded. Conclusion Staff finds that all findings for Design Review, Use Permit, Variance, and Grading Exception can be made in the affirmative. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve application 06-208 with conditions by adopting the attached two resolutions. 1S ATTACHMENTS: 1.

Rodgers Chair, Planning Commission ATTEST: John Livingstone, AICP Secretary, Planning Commission This permit is hereby accepted upon the express terms and conditions hereof, and shall have no force or effect unless and until agreed to, in writing, by the Applicant, and Property Owner or Authorized Agent. The undersigned hereby acknowledges the approved terms and conditions and agrees to fully conform to and comply with said terms and conditions within the recommended time frames approved by the City Planning Commission. Property Owner or Authorized Agent Date • • Attachment 2 • 2~ RESOLUTION NO. Application No. 06-208 CITY OF SARATOGA PLANNING COMMISSION STATE OF CALIFORNIA Murray Woods; 15595 Peach Hill Road -Lot 2 WHEREAS, the City of Saratoga Planning Commission has received an request for Grading Exception Approval to cut and fill in excess of 1,000 cubic feet in the Hillside Residential district, Variance Approval for retaining walls that exceed the maximum height allowed in the Hillside Residential district, and Use Permit Approval for a water tanks that are within the rear setback and exceed the allowable height for accessory structures in the Hillside Residential district; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed Public Hearing in 1999, when the project was original approved, at which time all interested parties were given a full opportunity to be heard and to present evidence; and WHEREAS, the applicant has met the burden of proof required to support the findings for granting said application for grading exception to allow grading for a water tank system and a parking area/future home site as specified in City Code Section 15- 13.050(fj: (a) The additional grading is necessary in order to allow reasonable development of the property or to achieve a reasonable means of access to the building site. The water tanks are a required element of the subdivision and need to be located on a site that is high in elevation, relative to the property, and that is relatively level. The area proposed for the parking area was identified on the subdivision map as the location for a future home site. The tanks and parking area are on two of the most level areas on the site, thereby reducing the amount of grading that is necessary. (b) The natural landforms and vegetation are being preserved and protected. The sites selected for the tank area and parking area/future home site area have gentle slopes, relative to the lot, and therefore will require less grading and help to preserve the natural landform. Several trees have been already been planted on the site and several others are onsite ready to be planted. The applicant will be retaining a certified arborist to improve the health of the trees. (c) The increased grading is necessary to promote the compatibility of the construction with the natural terrain. Grading is necessary to create a level area for stability of the water tanks and for the future home site/parking area. • (d) The increased grading is necessary to integrate an architectural design into the topography. The grading lowers the profile of the parking area/future home site and water tank areas and provides a level foundation for each. (e) The increased grading is necessary to reduce the prominence of the construction as viewed from surrounding views or from distant community views. Grading lowers the overall height of the water tanks, thereby reducing the prominence of the construction as viewed from surrounding properties. The future home site/parking area uses cut rather than fill to integrate the future home into the hillside. (f) No building site shall be graded so as to create a flat visible pad surrounding the main residential structure. There is no residential structure on this lot at this-time. However, the parking area is situated in the approximate location of the future home site, as identified on the subdivision map; and WHEREAS, the City of Saratoga Planning Commission has received an application for a variance allowing retaining walls adjacent to the water tank area that exceed the height maximum in the Hillside Residential district. The applicant has met the burden of proof required to support the findings for granting said application for variance as specified in City Code Section 15-70.060: (a) That because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, strict enforcement of the specified regulation would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the vicinity and classified in the same zoning district. Although the City Code requires shorter retaining walls, the topography of this parcel is such that the strict enforcement of this requirement would deprive the applicant of the use of the water system for domestic water. It would also deprive the applicant and other subdivision residents of the fire protection that is enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity. (b) That the granting of the variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity and classified in the same zoning district. The proposed retaining walls would not constitute a special privilege in that the topography of the lot constitutes a physical hardship specific to this site. -The water tanks are a necessary part of the subdivision that must be located uphill from the home sites. Their construction at this location requires them to be set into the hill, and because of the steep topography, that cut must be supported by a wall that is approximately eight feet in height. • Z~ (c) That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The proposed retaining walls would not be detrimental to public health, safety, or welfare or injurious to properties in the area in that it will protect individuals and properties from slides, and will not result in a negative impact on properties in the area. Furthermore, the other lots on the subdivision could be impacted in regards to health, safety, and welfare if the applicant was unable to install the fire protection tank as required by the fire district; and WHEREAS, the City of Saratoga Planning Commission has received an application for a use permit allowing an exception to the height and setback regulations in the Hillside Residential district, and the applicant has met the burden of proof required to support the findings for granting said application for use permit as specified in City Code Section 15-55-030: (a) That the proposed location of the conditional use is in accord with the objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and the purposes of the district in which the site is located. By providing the required fire protection for the subdivision, the water tank system protects public health and safety, property values, and the rural environment. The excess height of the tank is brought about by its 50,000-gallon capacity and its proximity to the property line is necessitated by the fact that it must be located at a fairly level spot that is at a high elevation, relative to the home sites. The tanks are located on one of the more gently sloping areas of the lot rather than on a steep, visually exposed site, and are screened by vegetation, thereby maintaining the rural character of the district. (b) That the proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The water tanks are situated in such a way that the fire protection tank can provide emergency water to the other parcels in the subdivision, thereby promoting public health, safety, and welfare. (c) That the proposed conditional. use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of Chapter 1 S of the City Code (Zoning Regulations). Because of the limited area that can be used for the water tanks and the need to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the residents, fmdings can be made to allow the tanks to be located in the proposed location, as described, and be in full compliance with the provisions of Chapter 15. (d) That the proposed conditional use will not adversely affect existing or anticipated uses in the immediate neighborhood or adversely affect surrounding properties or the occupants thereof. The water tanks are located in one corner of a large lot and are screened by vegetation. They will not adversely affect uses in the immediate neighborhood, but instead, will enhance safety in the area; and WHEREAS, the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan, including the following Policies: (a) Conservation Element Policy 6.0 -Protect the existing rural atmosphere of Saratoga by carefully considering the visual impact of. new development. The proposal will expand the City's housing stock and will protect the rural atmosphere of Saratoga by utilizing an existing large parcel for asingle-family home. The proposal will not block the views of the surrounding hills from neighboring parcels. The proposed architectural style is very compatible with the low-density ambiance of the neighborhood and the zoning designation in which the property is located. The applicant has planted 97 trees and has 21 additional trees onsite ready for planting. (b) Land Use Element Policy 5.0 -The City shall use the design review process to assure that the new construction and major additions thereto are compatible with the site and the adjacent surroundings. As conditioned, Staff' recommends that the Planning Commission find that the application meets the Findings required for Design Review Approval.

The project consists of a new road to two lots, construction of a new home on one lot, and a parking area and new water tower on the other lot. This project was started in 1998. Michael Bench of Barrie D. Coate and Associates inventoried trees on the property that would be impacted byconstruction-and were protected by City Ordinance 15-050. He conducted several site visits and prepared reports dated July 9, 1998, December 18, 1998, February 27, 1999, May 20, 1999, September 16, 1999, December 4, 1999, January 4, 2000, February 11, 2000, March 14, 2000, and September 14, 2000. All of these reports were reviewed in preparation for this report. REVIEW OF REPORTS AND SUMMARY OF PROJECT Road (Subdivision) -July 9. 1998 Originally, a total of 86 trees were inventoried and potentially impacted by construction. Fifty two trees were approved for removal to construct the road to the two lots. Their total value was $71,230. Replacement trees equal in value to this amount were recommended. Thirty four trees were retained with a total appraised value of $52,511. A bond of $13,128 (25% of the total value) was recommended. New House -December 8 1998 Originally, a total of 69 trees were impacted by construction. Thirty nine were approved for removal to construct the new house. Their value was $75,671 ($71,812 + $3,859). Replacement trees equal in value to this amount werexecommended. Thirty one trees were retained. Their total value was $72,605. A bond of $18,151 (25% of the total value) was recommended. 37 Page 1 of 3 15595 Peach Hill Road Water tower -February 27. 1999 Originally, a total of 62 trees were impacted by construction. Fourteen were approved for removal. Their value was $17,481. Replacement trees equal in value to this amount were recommended. Forty eight trees were retained. Their total value was $49,118. A bond of $7,368 (15% of the total value) was recommended. Revised plans - Mav 20 1999 and December 4. 1999 In 1999, the plans were revised to relocate the parking area, impacting fewer trees during construction. As a result, the total bond amount for trees on this project was revised to be $24,413, which is equal to $17,045 for the house and the road combined (25% of an appraised value of $68,180) plus $7,368 for the water tower. In addition, the project was revised to reduce the number of trees that required removal. When the plans were finalized, a total of 61 trees were approved for removal. They were #4 - 8, 12, 13, 15, 16, 18 - 27, 32, 33, 36 - 46, 48 - 50, 54 - 59, 62, 65, 70, 71, 75, 76, 78, 79, 100, 101, 107 - 109, 114 - 117, 119. Their total value was $137,076. Replacement trees equal in value to this amount were recommended. SITE OBSERVATIONS AND TECHNICAL DISCUSSION I visited the site on May 16, 2006 together with Murray Woods and inspected the trees around the partially constructed house. We also inspected trees along the road and counted newly planted trees that replaced those removed during construction. The trees closest to the house appear stressed. I recommended to Mr. Woods that he hire someone to help him improve the health of these trees and keep them from declining further. At this time, a total of thirteen 36 inch box oaks, forty-two 24 inch box bay trees, twenty six 24 inch box redwoods and sixteen 15 gallon redwoods have been planted. Their total combined value is equal to $47,640. Additional trees are on site ready to be planted. They include two 36 inch box oaks, six 24 inch box bays, one 24 inch box redwood, and twelve 15 gallon redwoods. The value of these additional trees is $8,340. This gives a total value of $55,980 in replacement trees. Replacement trees equal in value to $81,096 are still required to be planted on site before the project is considered complete. Per City Ordinance 15-50.080, a bond of $24,413 is in place for the project. This bond amount is based on a percentage of the appraised value of trees to be retained. Appraisal values are calculated according to the Guide for Plant Appraisal, 9~` Edition, published by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), 2000. • PaaP. 7 of ~ .. 15595 Peach Hill Road RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Owner should plant replacement trees equal in value to $81,096 on the property. Acceptable species include those listed under Article 15-50.020(n) of the Zoning Regulations. If not enough room is available to plant enough-trees to satisfy this requirement, the remainder of the value of the trees maybe paid into the City's Tree Fund. Values for replacement trees maybe found in the arborist report dated July 9, 1998 at the bottom of each page in the Tree Inventory Table. 2. I recommend that the owner retain a certified arborist to provide recommendations for improving the health of trees #25, 26, 28-31, 34, 35 and 67-69 in particular and any other tree that begins to exhibit stress during construction. Those recommendations should be implemented throughout the remainder of the project. 3. Tree protection fencing has fallen in some locations and should be reinstalled for the remainder of construction. • • 39 Page 3 of 3 ~ Attachment 4 .

It was very helpful. My name is Mohsen Mardi and I live on 15581 Peach Hill road. My concern with this permit is about the size of parking lot. From what I saw, I think that this parking area is way to big for 6769 square foot house with an existing 3 cars Garage. The plan shows the additional parking area of 42 feet by 33 feet plus additional Turf block of 66 feet at the bottom with 39 feet on the top next to it which make this area as big as 42 feet by 93 feet. As far as I can tell a turf block can always be used for parking as well. Since our street has no room for parking most of the neighbors hire Valet attendants when they have big parties to take the car to other streets for parking. I am afraid that this parking space might be used as central parking for the neighborhood.. With two young children I would like to reduce the amount of over flow traffic around my house, therefor I would like to know why such a big area for parking? Is this normal in Saratoga? I heard they added this for fire safety, fire safety is something we all have to live with, and is the same issue for all of our neighborhood. Since this property is for sale I just wanted to make sure whomever is buying this house will not- I repeat will not - turn it to Block party parking or neighborhood parking lot. Can this parking space be eliminated or reduced? Best regards Mohsen-Mardi Do You Yahoo!? Tired of Spam? Yahoo!

Experts agree that continued exposure. to noise above 85 dBA over time, will cause hearing loss. To know if a sound is loud enough to damage your eazs, it is important to know both the loudness level (measured in decibels, dBA) and the length of exposure to the sound. In general, the louder the noise, the less time required before hearing loss will occur. According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (1998), the maximum exposure time at 85 dBA is 8 hours. At 110 dBA, the maximum exposure time is one minute and 29 seconds. If you must be exposed to noise, it is recommended that you limit the exposure time and/or weaz hearing protection. Measure Up and Turn it Down: Decibel Levels Around Us The following are decibel levels of common noise sources around us. These are typical levels, however, actual noise levels may vary depending on the pazticulaz item. Remember noise levels above 85 dBA will harm hearing over time. Noise levels above 140dBA can cause damage to hearing after just one exposure.

The new home, which will have a maximum height of 26 feet, will be located on a vacant lot that is behind the historic Hanchett House, which is currently being remodeled. Access to the subject parcel is through aningress/egress easement on the front lot containing the Hanchett House. The subject parcel has two accessory structures that are currently being demolished. The subject parcel is surrounded by mature trees and the neighboring homes to the rear are situated at a higher elevation. The proposed home is in a farmhouse style with detailed wood columns accentuating the wraparound porch, and stone accents at the base of the proposed facades. Staff finds that the proposed home is very compatible with the character of the neighborhood, which has several historic homes and newer homes built in late nineteenth and early twentieth century architectural styles. Trees A total of ten trees were inventoried for this project. These trees include one redwood, one big leaf maple, one valley oak and seven coast live oaks. The Staff Arborist has reviewed the potential impacts to these trees and all of the recommendations contained in the attached Arborist Report have been made conditions of project approval. Most importantly, the Arborist Report specifies that the garage and deck shall be constructed entirely on top of grade using a pier and beam foundation since these areas will be within the rootzones of large oak trees on the property. Staff has noted on many other projects that this type of foundation has prevented the decline of trees. A prior Arborist Report was prepared for this site which reviewed the impacts on trees related to the demolition of the two accessory structures. The applicant has already installed protection fencing and has deposited a security bond in the amount of $60,920 prior to commencing the demolition work. In conjunction with the proposed home construction, the owner is required to provide additional tree protection security in the amount of $230,800. No ordinance size trees are proposed for removal. Geotechnical Clearance Geotechnical clearance is not required for this project. Neighbor Review Letters The applicant has obtained favorable comments from surrounding neighbors and has documented all contacts, as included in the attachments. No negative comments have been received as of the writing of this Staff Report. • J Application No. 06-323 for Design Review; I4S24 Oak Street General Plan Findings The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan, including the following Policies: Conservation Element Policy 6.0 -Protect the existing rural atmosphere of Saratoga by carefully considering the visual impact of new development. The proposal will retain and extend the life of the City's housing stock and will protect the rural atmosphere of Saratoga by utilizing an existing residential site that was once occupied by a single family home. The proposal will not block the views of the surrounding hills from neighboring parcels. The proposed architectural style is very compatible with the ambiance of the neighborhood and the zoning designation in which the property is located. Land Use Element Policy 5.0 -The City shall use the design review process to assure that the new construction and major additions thereto are compatible with the site and the adjacent surroundings. As conditioned, Staff recommends that the Planning Commission find that the application meets the Findings required for Design Review Approval. Design Review Findings The proposed project is consistent with all the following Design Review Approval findings stated in City Code Section 15-45.080: (a) Avoid unreasonable interference with views and privacy. The project has been designed in a manner that minimises interference with views and privacy to adjacent properties, including setbacks that meet or exceed the minimum setbacks required by Code. The proposed home is situated more than 40 feet from the rear property line. The homes toward the rear are also at a higher elevation and will be separated by large trees and sufficient distance. There are no windows proposed on the second floor of the east elevation. The large trees surrounding the home-will provide sufficient screening from the proposed balcony on the second floor which faces west. (b) Preserve Natural Landscapes This property is located in a developed area surrounded by homes. There are minimal grade changes proposed and no ordinance sized trees are proposed for removal. The major portion of the lot is relatively level and slopes upward toward the rear. This upward slope will be maintained since there are large protected trees in this area. (c) Preserve Native and Heritage Trees. All Arborist report recommendations have been made conditions of approval of the project to ensure a high degree of survival for all trees retained on site. There are no heritage trees on this site and no native trees are proposed for removal. (d) Minimize perception of excessive bulb Architectural details such as varied rooflines and well-designed wooden columns which accentuate the wraparound Application No. 06-323 for Design Review; 14524 Oak Street porch will add visual interest and charm. The proposed windows are appropriately placed with additional smaller window details that break balance the appearance of the facades. Therefore, the perception of excessive bulk is not an issue given the proposed articulation of each facade. (e) Compatible bulk and height The residence has been designed in a manner that minimizes the appearance in height and bulk and does not exceed the maximum height allowed in the area and zoning district. There are two-story homes surrounding this site that are of similar scale and character. (fJ Current grading and erosion control methods. The proposal would conform to the City's current grading and erosion control methods. The applicant is required to retain stormwater on site to the extent feasible. (g) Design policies and techniques. The proposed project conforms to all of the applicable design policies and techniques in the Residential Design Handbook in terms of compatible bulk, and avoiding unreasonable interference with privacy and views as detailed in the findings above. Conclusion Staff finds that all of the Design Review Approval findings can be made in the affirmative. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission find that design review approval application 06-323 is exempt from CEQA and should be granted with conditions by adopting the attached resolution.

There are two-story homes surrounding this site that are of similar scale and character. (f) Currentgrading and erosion control methods. The proposal would conform to the City's current grading and erosion control methods. The applicant is required to retain stormwater on site to the extent feasible. (g) Design policies and techniques. The proposed project conforms to all of the • applicable design policies and techniques in the Residential Design Handbook in terms of compatible bulk, and avoiding unreasonable interference with privacy and views as detailed in the fmdings above. (h) Avoid unreasonable interference with views and privacy. The project has been designed in a manner that minimizes interference with views and privacy to adjacent properties, including setbacks that meet or exceed the minimum setbacks required by Code. The proposed home is situated more than 40 feet from the rear property line. The homes toward the rear are also at a higher elevation and will be separated by large trees and sufficient distance. There are no windows proposed on the second floor of the east elevation. The large trees surrounding the home will provide sufficient screening from the proposed balcony on the second floor which faces west. (i) Preserve Natural Landscapes This property is located in a developed area surrounded by homes. There are minimal grade changes proposed and no ordinance sized trees are proposed for removal. The major portion of the lot is relatively level and slopes upward toward the rear. This upward slope will be maintained since there are large protected trees in this area. (j) Preserve Native and Heritage Trees. All Arborist report recommendations have been made conditions of approval of the project to ensure a high degree of survival for all trees retained on site. There are no heritage trees on this site and no native trees are proposed for removal. ~~ Application No. 06-323 forDesign Review; 14524 Oak Street (k) Minimize perception of excessive bulb Architectural details such as varied rooflines and well-designed wooden columns which accentuate the wraparound porch will add visual interest and charm. The proposed windows are appropriately placed with additional smaller window details that break balance the appearance of the facades. Therefore, the perception of excessive bulk is not an issue given the proposed articulation of each facade. (1) Compatible bulk and height The residence has been designed in a manner that minimizes the appearance in height and bulk and does not exceed the maximum height allowed in the area and zoning district. There are two-story homes surrounding this site that are of similar scale and character. (m)Currentgrading and erosion control methods. The proposal would conform to the City's current grading and erosion control methods. The applicant is required to retain stormwater on site to the extent feasible.
