Councilmember Anderson noted comments made by citizens regarding the allowed grace
period; she felt that such was excessive. In addition, she noted her concern regarding the

APRIL 15, 1987
PUBLIC HEARINGS Continued
Planning Director Hsia presented the Report to the Mayor and City Council of April 9, 1987,
and noted that there were only four structures in the City that would qualify for a Bed and
Breakfast designation. He reviewed Options available to the Council.
The Public Hearing was opened at 8:12 P.M.
Col. E.T. Barco cited an articie on Bed and Breakfasts published by the San Jose Mercury
News; he noted that inns cited in the article were in old, single family neighborboods which
had slowly deteriorated into multiple housing and mixed comn~ercial use. All three inns lyere
well mathrained; he noted that in essence, Bed and Breakfasts were simply commercial activity
which eroded fine old residential neighborhoods. He urged denial of this Ordinance.
Ms. Suzanne Armbruster, 21169 Canyon View Dr., Saratoga, presented a petition signed by
approximately 1 I00 Saratoga residents opposed to the proposed Ordinance. While not
opposed to Bed and Breakfasts as such, petitioners felt that such establishments and all other
commemial ventures must be confined to currently designated commercial zones.
Ms. Marguerite Chapman, 21221 Canyon View Dr., Saratoga, stated that the majority of
residents she contacted felt strongly on the folio,wing issues: Residential character of the City
Traffic impacts of allowing Bed and Breakfasts in residential areas
Possible lowering of property values from commercial ventures in their neighborhoods.
Dr. Don Prolo, 20471 Forrest Hills Dr., Saratoga, reviewed his choice of Saratoga for his
home and no~ed the benefits anticipated. However, his home is located within the 500 ft.
boundary of the Village; he cited impacts from commercial development and the possible
closure of Saratoga School.
Ms. Diane Parham, Twin Oaks Homeowners Association, which represented over three
million dollars in property value. She stated that property renovation had become one of the
most profitable investment areas for private or corporate individuals; tax credits that could be
claimed in commercial use of older buildings were noted. She stated that zoning was to protect
the rights of property owners and urged the Council to protect these zoning designations.
Mr. James Cohen, 1492 Vickery Ln., Saratoga, requested a correction in a San Jose Mercury
News article and questioned the procedure to be followed in reaching a decision on this issue.
Mr. Lee Grey, President, Saratoga Homeowners Association, stated that property values of
Saratoga Oaks exceeded thirty two million dollars. The Association felt that any change in the
R-1 zoning was not in the best interest of homeowners or the City and urged denial of the
proposed Ordinance.
Ms. Betty Rowe, 20360 Saratoga-Los Gatos Rd., Saratoga, noted that the most disruption a
city could have was to put commercial next to residential. Conditional use was a bad self
image gimmick. She was strongly 9pposed to commercial use in residential areas.
Ms. Nancy AriaS, 20590 Canyon View Dr., Saratoga, addressed the history of the Valley.
She cited the impact of traffic and parking from growth and added that establishments once
used as inns were now surrounded by residential areas. Commercial use in a residential area
would go against the heritage of the City. She urged denial of such uses.
Ms. Joanne Prolo, 20471 Forrest Hills Dr., Saratoga, noted the overwhelming majority of
public opinion against commercialization of residential areas and the sad recognition that some
members of the Council did not seem to listen. She cited the concerns of those who live within
the 500 ft. area from the Village boundary.
Mr. Dennis Aidridge, 14607 Aloha, Saratoga, stated that he did not want his children exposed
to threats from vendors or transients brought into the area by commercial establishments.
Mr. John Schaub, 20300 Orchard Rd., Saratoga, noted that the Planning Commission had
supported the pure residential nature of this area. He questioned the 500 ft. extension of the
Village giying adjacent residential areas a commercial stigma and strongly opposed such action.

PUBLIC HEARINGS Continued
Ms. Carol Machol, Ronnie Way, Saratoga, noted that protection of the residential character of
Saratoga was a primaxy issue in designing the General Plan of the City; she urged protection
of the neighborhoods of the City.
Ms. Dora Grens, 13.451 Old Oak Way, Saratoga, concurred with comments already noted and
reviewed the his~oi.~ of local inns. She queslio~cd the limited i:urn~cr c~f ii:ns eligibl~for such
.~ . :use and cited traffic impactS that would occur.from commercial use of. these establishments.
: :. Mr. John McDonald, 20483 l~orrest-:Hilis .Dr:, Sar. atoga, noted the consensus of public opinion

! . mid categorically opposed the proposed Ordinance.:..

· . : and cited e~periences of visiting inns in California and Europe. .
Mr. Bob Renner, ~2t f31- Sullivan Way, Saratoga, related a story and noted his concern
regarding "creepinl; commercialization." He felt that allowing Bed and Breakfasts would
trigger a spread of.commercialization throughout the Village and urged denial of the Ordinance.
Mr. Bill Thomas, Pierce Rd., Saratoga, cited a Bed and Breakfast in Pacific Grove which had
existed for years; in his opinion, this Inn had not detracted in any way from the City. The fact
that the Council had control over these establishments had been overlooked.
Mr. Shelly Williams, former Planning Commissioner, noted that the City had an area that could
handle the particular problems of Bed and Breakfast Inns with adequate protection for both the
neighborhood and the residents. He was in favor of allowing Bed and Breakfasts in the City.
Ms. Jackie Welch, 20925 Jacks Rd., Saratoga, noted irrelevant arguments and questioned
how an application for two establishments could lead to rampant commercialization. She noted
that Lundblad's Lodge was already zoned for multiple dwellings.
Mr. Noel Kane, Lowell Ave., Saratoga, noted Code enforcement problems of the second unit
Ordinance and questioned the ability to monitor activities of commercial establishments.
Mr. Greg Grodhaus, 20379 Saratoga-Los Gatos Rd., Saratoga, stated that he opposed the
proposed Ordinance and asked the Council to please, not approve it.
Mr. Jack Christian, 19022 Brookhaven Dr., Saratoga, stated that a 500 ft. area of commercial-
ization was under consideration; who would he address in the future regarding this area?
Ms. Magdalene Lavine, Oak Street, Sitratoga, stated that she fh'mly oppose 'ed and Breakfasts
and asked that residents be given full consideration.
Mr. Jeffrey Braun, 20220 La Paloma, Saratoga, cited previous testimony and noted opposition
the proposed Ordinance; such was only the first step in an encroaching commercial use.
People are strongly opposed to this Ordinance.
,PETERSON/ANDERSON MOVED TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 9:05 P.M.
Passed 5-0.
Councilmember Peterson noted the intensity of this issue; he clarified misrepresentations made
by a member of the public and restated his position on the status of Saratoga School.
Questions consider,~ by the Councilmember were:
Need for Bed and Breakfasts in Saratoga; he felt that there was not such a need and that he
would not commercialize any part of Saratoga.
Need for the City to provide a vehicle to save signi~can~y historical resources in Saratoga;
based on public input, there was no such need. He noted the community's pemeption that
an amendment to the R-1 zoning would be "spot zoning" and such would commercialize
residential areas. He stated that he would move to deny this amendment.
MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL Page 7
APRIL 15, 1987
PUBLIC HEARINGS Continued
Councilmember Moyles stated that upon consideration, he would deny the recommendation of
the Heritage Preservation Commission. He commended the Commission for seeking ways to
preserve the character of the community. However, he knew of nothing more important in the
· relationship between a municipality and its citizens than the Council's commitment to the
preservation of neighborhoods for the service of homes and families. He added .that the
· cl~aracter~of~lie'commhid~y today.v,'a~ not,compatiblc.~;ith-use~ pr~a~'n.t;forty-t~ fifty. years agc.-
'CouncilmemberClevengernotcdhersupportoftheHeritagePreservationCommission;how-
ever, one this issue she would not support their recormmendation. She reviewed her concerns:
,!; - Will the proposed Ordinance preserve Older buildings; she felt it would not.
. ! - Would such an Ordinance enhance neighborhood quality; again, ~he felt it would not.
She added that approval would ease the way for additional commercial use and noted the purity
· of R-1 residential zoning. She stated that she would support this concept.
Councilmember Anderson commended the Heritage Preservation's work; however, She noted
her commitment to the General Plan and the right of homeowners in R-1 zoning areas to have
their residential area preserved and protected.
Mayor Hlava noted disappointment at the unwillingness of the community and the-Council to
consider a compromise on this issue. She did not feel that heritage preservation issues had to
be sacrificed; this was an example where a compromise would have been appropriate. She repu- '~
dialed the idea that this project had been promoted by developers and noted that historical
aims of the City might have been served by the proposed amendment. Since no compromise
was possible, she would vote against the amendment as presented.
PETERSON/ANDERSON MOVED TO DENY ORDINANCE AZO 86 003. Passed 5-0.
The Mayor recessed the Meeting from 9:17 - 9:35 P.M.
B. Ordinance amending Sections 15-80.020 and 15-80.080 of the City Code pertaining to
radio and television antennas.
City Attorney Toppel presented the proposed Ordinance, cited considerations of the Planning
Commission and reviewed the definition of "antenna" for the purposes of this Ordinance·
Correspondence received from Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Stafford, Radio Relay League, noted·
The philosophy of the Ordinance was that antenna could only be installed on lots which could
accommodate them; thus, in the R-1 zoning, antennas could not be installed at the height
claimed by the operators to be necessary and still be within what the City defined as public
safety considerations i.e. if the antenna fell over, it would fail on the owners,property.
The Public Hearing was opened at 9:45 P.M.
Mr. Bill Robinson, District Emergency Coordinator, Amateur Radio Services, noted the role
of radio operators in the Lexington fire. He asked that the Ordinance as written not be
approved and noted the foliowing concerns:
Amateur radio towers rarely fail down; he noted that the towers were engineered structures
and would stand even in the face of high winds.
Proposed setback requirements would prohibit amateurs from erecting effective antenna
structures in 80% of households; he questioned an Ordinance written to apply to an
exception; there was no technical, engineen;ng and safety reason to require setbacks.
In response to Councilmember Moyles' question, he clarified setback requirements which
addressed the rotation of an antenna; in his experience, setbacks were not required due to the
possibility that if an antenna would fall, it would .fall on one's own property. Councilmember
Anderson noted the visual impact of these towers; Mr. Robinson recommended specific towers
due to least amount of visual impact on the adjacent neighborhood.
Mr. John McCall, 13290 Pierce Rd.;.Saratoga, concurred and emphasized that properly built
antennas would not be a safety hazard. He added that amateurs resolve any interference,
whether they caused it or not.
MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL Page 8
APRIL 15, 1987
PUBLIC HEARINGS Continued
Mr. Frank Nernic,' Emergency Coordinator for Saratoga, noted that amateurs:were being
asked to solve interference problems from other sources. He concurred that higher antennas
would cause less interference and minimal visual impact.
Mr. Gary Sigans, Dagmar Dr., Saratoga, recommended that the proposed Ordinance, Section
.... ,: :E:i~;. be ,increased>to,'3,~ .~t;.qn,height and,~hat~-info~ma~i~a ~n .the failur~-of.~ocf mounted
antennas or support structures be obtained from manufactures. Amateurs were the link to the -
· outsideworldforlVdxicansduring,thereeentearthquake..~ ..'
The City AttOrney noted~that therc hadybeen no;Objection nor testimony regarding proposed
setback requirements until this .Hearing; he suggested thaf further information be obtained.
. . Councilmember Moyles questioned whether setbacks requirements could address aesthetic
concerns; the City AttOrney concurred that FCCRegulations addressed aesthetic and safety
concems. The Councilmember suggested that the Planning Commission be given guidelines
on variances which would allow the creation of a viable emergency network without excessive
visual impact on the community; the City Attorney questioned the manner of determining a
level of adequate emergency communications.
Councilmember Anderson requested additional information; Councilmember Clevenger
concurred and added her concern regarding the visual impact of antennas;. she favored
· variances to address the installation of antennas. The City Manager suggested a guideline,
· allowing a fixed nnmber of antennas per square mile of the City. .'.
Councilmember P&erson favored rctuming this Item to the Planning Commission for further
consideration; he noted that differing views were being expressed.. The City Attorney stated
that the Staff would be interested in reviewing the information presented. He emphasized,
however, that there may be lots that remain inappropriate for the installation of an antenna.
MOYLES/HLAVA MOVED TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 10:45 P.M.
Passed 5-0.
The City Attorney suggested ihat the Planning Commission report back to the City Council by
