V. PUBLIC HEARINGS "
A. SARATOGA C~IPUS OFF-STREET PARKING LOT1 ASSESSMENT ~DISTRICT (Cont 'd. 5/16 & 6/6/73)
The Mayor explained that the questiOnScame up at the last regular meeting if
the parking lot immediately adjacent to Short Hill Court could be switched
with one of the athletic fields and used as a buffer zone for residents in
the area. He explained that Dr. Lowery,
West Valley Jr~ College was present this eveni~t6~e 't~timonywith
regard to some of the .Suggestions tha~ were brought up atethe last meeting.
To begin with, the Mayor asked D~. Lo~ery. if the "bulb" suggestion was
acceptable with the College. Dr. Lo~ery indicated that he could not speak
for the Board, but it was his own. personal feeling that this wquld be of low
priority and this lot would be the first to go. With regard to the switch
of the parking lot add the hockey field, Dr. Lowery stated that the College's
position would. be that this property~has been studied over a long period of
time, and this switch would not be acceptable with the College, primarily
because of the considerable addition of expense this would involve.
Mayor Smith asked'Dr. Lowery what t~e ~ollege's position was in cutting_back
one-half of the parking lot in ques[ion/~Dr?LoW~Fy replied
be t~ki'ng approximately 100 places which he ~ was ~a 'significant reducfibh.
The Mayo~ opened the public ~earing'at 10:25 PLM.
Mayor Smith inquired what the estimated cost would be tomeke the switch of
the parking lot and the athletic field. Dr. Lowery indicated that, depending
upon the precise layout of the grades, it would be approximately $56,970.
Mr. Aumack, the engineer for this project, pointed out on the map the slope
differences. He indicated that the genera~ slope of .the land is such that
it rises up, and therefore, it slopes down with the parking lot, which rela-
tively reduces the amount of grade'. He indicated he thinks there is a drop
on the hockey field of approximately 10 feet. Mr. Aumack concurred that it
would cost approximately $56,000 to exchange the par~ing lot with the hockey
field, and additionally, there wo~id be approximately three hundred feet of
lineal fence amounting to approximately $1,600, and an additional $30 per
stall, bringing this figure from $600 per stall to $630 per.stall.
The. Mayor asked Dr. Lowery if it ~as his recollection that it was the
Planning Commission's first preference to have this hockey field located
where the parking lot is and the parking lot where the hockey field is.
Dr. Lowery replied that he didn't recall this.
Councilman Kraus asked Dr, Lowery if the College had considered anything
beyond the nineteen feet of landscaping which was discussed at the previous
meeting. Dr. Lowery replied that this hasn't been given consideration at
this point.
Mayor Smith asked Dr. Lowery if, between the time of the last meeting and
tonight, he or Mr. Hardy had met with the Board about switching the parking
lot with the hockey field or the proposal to cut. back one-half o£ the lot.
- 3 -
Dr. Lowery replied that they had met informally, but no formal action had
been taken by the Board. He further stated that this matter has b~en dis-
cussed at length in the past, -
Mr. John Terry, 10675~Woodbank Way, asked if with the~very significant
landscaping going around the parking lot, would there still be space left
for the Master Plan trail. Mr, Stan Walker, Director of Planning,. indicated
that this factor is being-worked on; hpwever, he didn't know if the pro-
viding of nineteen feet would allow for tlrail as planned.
Col. Barco of Dundee Avenue indicated that he would like to address himself
to two subjects: 1) He indicated thathe has heard it repeatedly said,
"This is the way we planned'it all along" and that "this thing has been
given thorough detailed study". !It washis feeling that "nothing could be
further from the facts". He indicated that seven years ago, quoted in the
West Valley hewspaper, it state~ UOne' thing that would never be changed is
the green belt on the east side of the campus." He indicated that he has
had previous meetings with the former 'Dean of Facilities, Dean Arnold, and
was assured that along the green belt ~of the campus there would be no
parking facilities, excepf for a little fifteen-car parking lot they were
going to pu~ next to the warehouse. 2) Mr. Muir who.boUght the land
adjacent to the proposed lot had had Several meetings with Dean Arnold, and
he~was assured of the same thing. Hecommented that Dr. Lowcry has stated
"he c n'
a t speak ~or the College", and,he was informed that Dean Arnold didn't
really speak for the College, and he asked, "Who does speak for. the College?"
Col. Barco explained the'concept of a~time schedule-space available study,
and he indicated that this ha~ never been done. He stated that he would like
to see a study such as this-made and ~b~v~e~'~_h~.c~lt~ sta'ff lake a' look at it, _
and then if they really need more parking space, thi~'would b~ fine.
One citizen indicated that he didn't feel the parking.ratio could be com-
pared with that of Foothill and DeAnza Colleges as both of these schools
are-located by a freeway, and the Wes~ Valley Campus is located in a
residential area.
Mr. Sanford' Berliner,- Attorney, 100 ~ark Center Plaza, San Jose, indicated
that he was representing a number of !residents on Short Hill Court, It was
his feeling that the answer Ito the question if this matter has been ,brought
back to the Board of Trustees .seems ~o be "no". He indicated that at no
time since the last City Council Meeting have the facts been formally brought
before the Board of Trustees as to what this Council's feeling is with re-
gard to moving the hockey lfield to t~e "concrete jungle", and it appears to
him that ~_e.~j~'~s~h~ul'd~'~ii~ ~xpreS~'d to ~he Board before
any<gu.~h~"c6~ra~i~'~ade ~e~'a~aln~ '~hi~ ~te~L Mr. B~rl~ng~r, felt
that the Economic Impact in relation ~to the total cost of these parkinglots.
should be weighed, considering a ten~percent reduction~in the valuation of
the homes on Short Hill~Court.
Mr. De~ling~r/fe~ there would be an impact with this project, and he felt this
impact should be reviewed by the Planning Commission as~well as the Council.
He pointed Out that the purpose of the ~ox Bill is to grant to the public
opportunities to be h~ard on all matters that would have a significant
effect on the environment.
In conclusion, ~.Ber~e~t~dicated, that i~ the'CounCil should take action
tonight, he would request that his office be notified=if the 'attorneys are
instructed to ~ile a.validation action so he may have an opportunity to
review that validation action, and should he not file a validation action,
institute an action on behalf of the] residents on Short Hill Court to
determine whether~the assessment district is apprgpria,te.
Mayor Smith asked Attorney Kenneth~on%s if it would be' within the ~ity's
perogative to alternate the pa~king~lot at any time. ~. Jones replied that
a review of the co~ estima.te ,ould~rindicate whethe~ or not there would be
enough in the contingency ~undS.-

Councilman Dwyer suggested that the Council speak in a universal voice and
indicate to the College exactly what we find acceptable with regard to this
parking lot situation.
Councilman Diridon {~dicated that th~ question ~it'h regard to the connection
of the perimeter road to the otherslots was discussed at the previous meeting,
and there h~s been no report onlthisas yet. Dr. Lower~ stated that itis
the College's intent to get students.off the main street and into the parking
spaces. Dr. Lowery indicated ~heycould construct thelperimeter road to
connect with the other 10ts, but the~students would ~av~t0 drive around the
.campus.
Mrs. Long, a citizen, questioned if any other alternative solutions have
been considered for this parking, as it seemed very expensive to spend
$600 to park each car. She felt some consideration should be given to
operation of busses as sh~ hated to see any more of our beautiful land go
into concrete. ~
Mr. Duffy, a citizen, asked, "Why is the parking lot in question located so
far from the academic buildings of the college?" and "Who is supposed to use
that lot?" Mayor Smith replied that it was determined at the last regular
meeting that those people using the theater would use the lot, and also, the
library is close by.
Mr. Charles Huff, President, Prides Crossing Homeowners Association, inquired
why the "time schedule space-available" study had not been conducted earlier.
He did not understand how the College could come to the Council and ask for
$56,000 for parking lots when they haven't even prepared a study.
Mr.'Lowery indicated that ~hey at the College know basically what classes
are going to be scheduled next year, and they have scheduled them from 7:00
A.M. to 10:00 P.M. They have also s~heduled classes on Saturday. Mr.
Lowery indicated they they know they'must schedule 'classes with an equal
number of students throughout the da~ and they must fill up classrooms from
8:00 A.M. ~o 12:00 Noon three days aweek for those students holding part-:
time jobs. Mr. Lowerystated that the buildings are there, the students
are there, and aside from that he doesn't know how else they can justify
the need.
Mr. Walter Muir, 14156 Short Hill. Court, indicated that he questions the
$57,000 figdre that has been quoted as he has had engineers~go out to this
site, and they found that the ~levations as indicated by the College were
not accurate, but instead, were the original elevations. He stated that hec
felt there would substantial savingsinvolved in many of the areas because
of this factor and that the switch of the parking lot and the hockey field
would be more-like 'a p Also, he indicated that if the parking lot
is reduced from 280 spacesto 150 spaces, and there would be a savings of
$6,000. Mr. Muir indicated that he has ndt heard anything with regard to
the suggestion concerning a study oflsmall cars that are.parked in the
lots, and there is no design in thisTplan for compact cars.
Mayor Smith indicated that the Council could do one of three things:
1) Continue this hearing to the next zmeeting and indicate to the Coll~ge
tonight the Council's preference;2) ~pprove-a plan tonight, subject to the
College's approval; or 3) request more study.
The Mayor indicated that he finds it ivery difficult to vote for the parking
plan as proposed, and he would like to see the switch of the parking lot and
the hockey field.
Councilman Bridges indicated that he would be in favor of approving the
reduction of parking lot 3.
- 5 -
Councilman Dwyer indicated he would be in favor of leaving parking lot 3
in its present position and eliminating a few parking spaces to create
a greater buffer area.
Councilman Kzaus indicated he would prefer the switch of the parking lot
and the hockey field, and if this could not be done, he would be in favor
of the wider buffer zone.
Councilman Diridon indicated he was in agreement with Councilman Kraus, and
also, if the switch would require an additional instructor, he would be in
favor of the additional buffer zone~, particularly with the trail which ~a~
discussed earlier.~ In addition, he would like the College to respond to a
potential crossover street to the e~sterly side of the campus without having
to drive around the campus.
Mr. Ken Jones, Attorney for this prpject, indicated that in order for him
to file a validation action in time for the District to levy a tlax, it would
be necessary to take action tonight. He suggested that the Council adopt
the appropriate resolutions, subject to the condition that no construction
be initiated on parking lot 3 without specific authorization by the Council.
It was moved by Councilman Bridges and seconded by Councilman Diridon that
the public hearing be closed. The motion carried; the public hearing was
closed at 11:45 P.M.
Mayor Smith moved that the Council pass-the necessary resolutions, Resolutions
655-1, 655-J, 655-K and 655-L ,~su~j~'~tT~f~l_~{~gy' ~l'~That the plan to
be implemented would place parking lot 3 in the place of the hockey field and
the hockey field in the place of the parking lot; the "bulb" parking lot' be
omitted and there be ampl~ room left along the eastern, northern and southern
perimeters for the equestri~nltrait~'with the exact location for this to be
set out between the District and th& Planning Commission; and the access be
provided along the southwestern portionof the campus for easier circulation.
Councilman Diridon seconded the motion and indicated that the motion should
include the thought that 'if.something'particularly compelling should come up
with regard to this matter, the motion could be revoked. The motion was
carried.
The City'Manager spggested that theZCouncil request a formal response from
the College with regard to the action taken this evening. Mayor Smith
advised Mr. Lowe~y that the Council would like to request this response.
B. PERMANENT OPEN SPACE AND CONSERVATION ELEMENTS

Kraus and seconded by Councilman Diridon that this matter be continued to

Building Inspect'ion Department, and!the basic modification in this departS_?
ment is.the~mp_~f~oy.'~e~_'payrofl~b~{~s,~hich last year were shown in "General
Government". He indicat~d'['~'t '[~e!"Ge~eral Government" budget has been
significantly decreased from last year due to the transferring of these

personnel services which were transferred into the Operating Budget. He

lay items. The other proposed increase in related to "Personnel" in order
to keep the Traffic Engineer position, which is currently P~E.P. funded.
In the Public Works Street MaintenanCe budget the___sala_~r~_~ortion of the
budget reflects increases for the transfer of p~e~son_ne~~a~c~'~unts.'~He
indicated there is limited money for the maintenance of the City's asphalt
pathways and there is no money for ithe maintenance of bikeways. Also,
there will be some additional cost in the telephone facilities due to the
move of the Corporation Yard.
Councilman Diridon indicated that there had been complaints last year and
a few this year prior to budget hearings with regard to Stree~ Sweeping,
particularly in the Quito area and that he would be in favor of adding
$2,500~toward selective sweeping, and his motion reflected this. Council.~:
man Bridges seconded the motion and it was carried unanimously.
The City Manager advised that the other element of the Public Works Budget
._~.~? !'Traffic Safety".element, and he explained that~a~'[h~r~ is
the tr~h~fer of the Maintenance Man' II position to the Trafff~S~f~y

cult to get traffic patternS'when school is out, eake council action prior
to the school year. In the meantime, the City could try to find out from
the school district wha[ the problems are and whether or not the burden
is being shifted from the school to'the City.
~s. Pam Matteoni .indicated that they are thinking now o~ summer school,
and there will be no one t0 cover these areas during this time.
It was moved by Mayor Smith and seconded by Councilman Bridges to include
$1,200 in the budget for a crossing.guard, to be included under "Part-time-
Temporary" in the Traffic Safety Budget. 'This was unanimously carried.
The City Manager indicated there is~an increase in "Special Supplies",
Account 22, and additionalmoney for "Outside Services" for work that has
to be done on the Storm Drain Program for damages of last winter.
Under Gas Tax Construction the City Manager indicated there should be five
projects added which are in the process of being completed but will carry over
to the next fiscal year. He further indicated that a key item for 'Council
discussion would be Account 83.11, Reid Lane-Saratoga/Sunnyvale traffic sig-
nal, and it is hoped that the Council would approve funding this project as
the State has indicated they were not in a position to do this.
The City Manager advised that under~"S~orm Drain" expenditures there are
nine projects, some of these of.wJich are urgent. in that. they are relevant
to problems which occurred.thfs~C~a~inter'
The Mayor opened the public hearing~at 12:25 A.M.
Mr. Bill Ne~an of the Co~unity Garden project, addressed the Council,
stating that it was his understanding that there has been some slight change
from what was earlier perceived as support toward the Community Garden.
He indicated that the Garden has a project launched, and they are hoping
that the launching will keep this thing in orbit and the people surrounding
them will not g home for lunch". Mr. Ne~an explained that the kind of
things they have planned require long-term commitments, and one of these
· - 7 -
commitments which is currently going on is with the School District in
interviwing people for jobs. He further indicated that the High School
District has granted him.avyear's leave of absence at half-pay to work at
the Community Garden project to do what he can to facilitate that launching
and make it the sort of dream they had before the project was started.
Mr. Newman was in question as to what kind of cost. benefit ap~lysis would
have to be done to convince the Council that funds for this project are
warranted.
Mayor Smith commented that he thinks the burden they have has to go beyond
a cost benefit analysis, and it was his feeling that the Council wants to
know exactly what their goals are.
Mr. Newman stated they have been involved with various organizations, such
as "4-H", etc., but these programs have to be expanded.
Councilman Dwyer advised that he is delighted to know there is some
strong leadership with the Community Garden project at this time; however,
he indicated that since 'we would bespending taxpayers' dollars, he would
like to see some valid j6stificatio~ for their needs.
Councilman.Diridon stated that.d~rihg. the Council's earlier discussions on
the issue he didn't object.to hawing an e~aluatio~ of theprogram; however,
he regretted a little that it had to occur as soon as August. He asked
Mr. Newman if,~' ~o~nd~e~nd ~f~August., he could show a signi-
ficant increase in the'~{~l d~vero~ ~f the program~ Mr. Newman re-
plied that he feels things are going to h~ppen during the next couple of
months.
Mayor Smith asked Mr, Newman if he had a specific amount in mind. Mr.
Newman replied they did have a request in the budget for some funding
for construction, ~nd at one time there was a request for a Coordinator.
The City Manager stated there was a request for $15,900 for eight various
items, and also, ~here was a request that the funds allocated' for a
~e~r~t'~'~onI~EdFr~-- at Kevin Moran Park be diverted to provide for this
Community Co~di~[or, and he had informed them that there was no money
in the budget allocated for a Playground Director at Kevin=~M6ran~and_~'~)
therefore, there would be no funds to divert.
Mrs. Betty Peck indicated she would. like the Council to' consider the
Garden's need for a Coordinator.
Mr. Charles Huff commented that he doesn't totally agree with all that he
has heard, and he doesn't feel he has enough information for a fixed opinion.
Councilman Diridon indicated he would like to petition the Council to add
$6,000 for the Manager, and$~00 for the "liaison" person.
Councilman Krausindicated that he is concerned aboht even putting $6,000
i~lat this point and [hat he would ha~e to see some additional partici~
pation hy Saratogans before he could approve any more money toward this.
It was, therefore, moved by Councilman Kraus and seconded by Councilman
Diridon that $6,000 be approved to be budgeted toward the Garden Manager's
salary and that no additional funds be allocated at this time. The motion
was carried.
It was moved by Councflman Bridges 'and seconded by Councilman Diridon that
