etc.) and identify what is different here from what occurs at other churches.
• Stated that different religions have different things they do and this process needs to be
fair to everybody.
• Suggested a survey be prepared by staff on what is actually going on.

be posed at this time as she has a couple.
Chair Rodgers asked for any questions about traffic.
Commissioner Nagpal:

variety of reasons. It was deemed not as safe as access from Neal's. Hollow but is still
reasonably safe..
Contract Planner Heather Bradley explained that the City's traffic consultants from Fehr &
Peers reviewed the proposal with direct access and concluded that since necessary U -turns
required would be beyond peak travel times, this access could be deemed an acceptable
alternative.
Commissioner Hlava pointed out that reasons why the direct access was initially deemed
unsafe was due to limited site distance. She asked if removal of the three trees solves that
concern
Chair Rodgers asked if lowering the wall prior to the access point mitigated the pedestrian
safety concern.

revise the design of the wall to accommodate that site distance view of pedestrians and traffic.

• Said one reason is the demographic that they are trying to reach.
• Said that these units include three bedrooms with decent sized living areas.

but still want similar living spaces but with little to maintain outside. These homes are at a
comfortable density with 25 feet between buildings. They offer a very nice design.
Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes. for April 25, 2007 Page 10
Commissioner Hlava asked if one building was moved with the creation of the alternate direct
access to Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road.
Mr. Colin Gray replied that two - buildings were relocated slightly, a negligible amount.
Chair Rodgers asked if there are questions for the applicant on the issue of traffic.
Commissioner Kumer asked if traffic volume is somewhat consistent with today's level. He
also asked if parking within the subdivision has 'met the minimum standards.
Mr. Colin Gray advised that while 2.5 spaces per unit are required under Code, they are
providing 4.75 spaces per unit. This project is very adequately parked.

Commissioner Kumer said that with only 14 guest parking spaces he did not want to see
parking end up along Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road.
Mr.. Joy Bhattacharya, TAM, Project Traffic Consultant, advised that with the alternate access
there is no significant impact on level of service on Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road.
Commissioner Nagpal .asked about the potential of vehicular /pedestrian conflict the alternate
access may create.
Mr. Joy Bhattacharya, TJKM, Project Traffic Consultant, said that there was an initial concern
over site distance but with the removal of two trees this concern was resolved. He added that
the conflict between vehicular /pedestrian traffic was resolved because of the reduced slope
that offers a better view for drivers of oncoming pedestrians.
Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for April 25, 2007 Page 11
Commissioner Zhao asked about the slope reduction from 12 percent to 8 percent.
Mr. Pete Carlino, Project Engineer, Lea & Braze:
• Said that the initial option that would have linked Neal's Hollow to the project site equaled.
a 12 percent slope.
• Added that with the direct access that slope could be reduced to 8 percent. A landscape
berm will help bring up the grade.
Commissioner Nagpal asked about the ground water level.
Mr. Ming Lee, TRC Wiley, said that the ground water is at 17 feet and they have designed at
13 feet.
Commissioner Nagpal asked if they tested for contaminates while testing the ground water
levels.
Mr. Ming Lee replied no.
Chair Rodgers asked about the 100 -year flood plane.
Mr. Ming Lee replied that it doesn't affect this project site. He added that if the City wants
them to design around that it could be accommodated. He added that the basement wall has
been designed to deal with the conditions.

using entries, covers, window trim, colors, etc.

perspective now that this project would not be accessed from Neal's Hollow.
Mr. Neal Gupta said he is not sure, as he has not been able to evaluate it. He added that he
has not seen the April 18th traffic study. He reminded that as of April 13th this option had been

making U- turns.
Commissioner Kumer asked why the change in recommendation.
Mr. Sorhab Rashid, City's Traffic Consultant, Fehr & Peers, replied that site distance, a
change in grade and the removal of trees helped improve conditions to support this access
alternative.
Mr. Martin Lettunich, Attorney for Neal's Hollow:
• Said that most of their concerns have been mitigated by the use of the alternate access.
• Expressed his hope that the alternative access would be approved as it offers a

Negative Declaration.
Commissioner Hlava pointed out that Mitigation #1 mentions an arborist report date that
needs to be updated as well as the reference to it. in the Mitigated Negative. Declaration.
Commissioner Nagpal asked how the alternative entrance is addressed in the Mitigated
Negative Declaration.
Commissioner Hlava said that she is with Commissioner Kumer on the issue of individual
mailboxes.

a letter for the applicant to give to the Post Office in support of individual mailboxes.
Commissioner Kumer asked about his suggestion for a connection to Neal's Hollow parking
through the use of a gate to allow use of overflow parking.
Chair Rodgers said using the existing sidewalk is preferable to an opening between the two
sites.
Commissioner Cappello said that Neal's Hollow may have a problem with a connection
between the two sites.
Commissioner Nagpal reminded that there is some public parking on the Neal's Hollow site.
Chair Rodgers said that people can walk over there on the public sidewalk.
Commissioner Cappello said this access to Neal's Hollow creates issues and no one has
asked for it.
Chair Rodgers said that it appears there are parking issues with the development above this
one and that should be taken up with their own development.
0 Commissioner Hlava said that a gate won't work.
Chair Rodgers said that she doesn't see a gate or path there but prefers landscaping.
Commissioner Nagpal agreed. She said that the wall near the access will be lowered and that
the sidewalk is already on the plan all the way down to Read._
Chair Rodgers said that the access is less of a concern since the slope has been lowered and
the wall will be lowered at the access.
Commissioner Nagpal suggested leaving this to the discretion of the City's Traffic Engineer.
She asked if this needs to be a part of the Design Review resolution.
Planner Heather Bradley replied yes.
City Attorney Jonathan Wittwer said that it should be a part of all three resolutions.
Chair Rodgers asked if the sidewalk and fences need to be part of all three.
City Attorney Jonathan Wittwer replied just the subdivision and Design Review resolutions.
He recommended a condition to read, "...changes to landscaping or to the wall are subject to
approval by the Community Development Director."
Commissioner Nagpal said this should include the additional landscaping between neighbors.
Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for April 25, 2007 Page 24
Chair Rodgers asked if the monument at the entrance is subject to approval by the
Community Development.Director.
Commissioner Nagpal said that she would rather see an attractive entrance and not a stone
monument.

PUBLIC HEARING - ITEM NO. 3
Resolution adopting Guidelines and Standards for Land Use Near Streams; - The City of
Saratoga Community Development Department is proposing adoption of a resolution that
would adopt the "Guidelines and Standards for Land Use Near Streams" as recommended by
the Santa Clara Valley Water Resources Protection Collaborative in 2006. The resolution
would direct that the Guidelines and Standards be applied to streamside developments in the
City of Saratoga to the extent feasible and appropriate and to the extent that the Guidelines
and Standards are consistent with Saratoga's General Plan, Specific Plans, Design
• Guidelines and Zoning Ordinance. (John Livingstone)
Director John Livingstone presented the staff report as follows:
• Explained that in 2003 the Santa Clara Valley Water District, with the County of Santa
Clara, 15 local municipalities, businesses, community members and environmental groups,
formed the Santa Clara Valley Water Resources Protection Collaborative.
• Stated that this Collaborative developed guidelines to protect the streams and creeks to
protect these watershed resources in a consistent manner throughout the County.
• Advised that these guidelines build upon the City's current requirements and serves as an
easy reference tool for cities.
• Said he is available for questions.
Commissioner Hlava asked if these guidelines are to be included in the Land Use Element or
simply serve as a checklist for staff.
Director John Livingstone said that they serve as a guideline and only pertains to discretionary
projects along protected creeks. He said that Saratoga already has a lot of requirements of its
own. These would be in addition to the existing City requirements.
Commissioner Hlava asked if this creates extra work.
Director John Livingstone said a little bit but it is a user - friendly guidebook..
Commissioner. Nagpal said that this is a good approach for now.
Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for April 25, 2007 Page 28
Chair Rodgers asked about its potential impacts to tonight's project.
Director John Livingstone said that most projects have already gone through Santa Clara
Valley Water District approval. SCVWD will still help cities and give conditions. . .
Chair Rodgers said that these guidelines offer a unified approach and suggested that they be
placed on line.
Chair Rodgers opened the public hearing for Agenda Item No. 3.
Chair Rodgers closed the public hearing for Agenda Item No. 3.
Commissioner Hlava said that the Resolution is from Council. Is the action of the Commission
this evening to forward a recommendation of approval?
Director John Livingstone replied yes.
Motion: Upon motion of Commissioner Hlava, seconded by Commissioner Nagpal,
the Planning Commission forwarded a recommendation that Council adopt
a Resolution that would adopt the "Guidelines and Standards for Land Use
Near Streams as recommended by the Santa Clara Valley Water
Resources Protection Collaborative in 2006, to the extent feasible and
appropriate and to the extent that the Guidelines and Standards are
consistent with Saratoga's General Plan, Specific Plans, Design Guidelines

NOES: None
ABSENT: None
ABSTAIN: None
DIRECTOR'S ITEMS
Director John Livingstone provided the following updates:
• Council held a Study. Session last evening on the General Plan and felt comfortable setting
their public hearing for June 6, 2006.
Reported - that fee schedule changes will take effect in July. Appeal fees have gone up and
flat fees will be used instead of deposits for development applications. It was found that
the recordkeeping for the - deposit method was labor intensive so the City is going back to
its old way of charging a flat fee.
• Said that on May 2 "d, Council will be considering *the concept of a Blight Ordinance to deal
with issues such as peeling paint, deteriorating roofs, etc. They have asked staff to bring
back an Ordinance draft.
Chair Rodgers asked if the Blight Ordinance would come to the Planning Commission.
Saratoga Planning Commission Minutes for April 25, 2007 Page 29
Director John 'Livingstone said that it is going to Council for the initial review. It could be
brought back to the Planning Commission but this Ordinance does not fall under the Zoning
Code.
Commissioner Hlava asked how blight is defined.
Director John Livingstone said it deals with unkempt landscaping, peeling paint, and general
disrepair.
Chair Rodgers asked if this too would be complaint driven.
Director John Livingstone said that enforcement is currently enforced upon complaint as there
is only one Code Enforcement Officer where there used to be two.
Commissioner Kundtz asked about fee increases and the issue of waiving appeal fees, which
the Council recently declined to do despite the Commissions recommendation. He asked if
there is any mechanism for hardship.
Director John Livingstone said this has been discussed and the issue is still out there.
Chair Rodgers reminded that only Council has the option to waive fees.
Commissioner Kundtz said that if there is no option to waive fees it should be clearly stated
that appeal fees are not optional.
Chair Rodgers said that the changes made by Council to the draft updated General Plan were
not many, less than one page.
Director John Livingstone asked about vacation schedules as not all Commissioners have yet
replied to the email seeking the unavailable dates for each Commissioner. Thus far, it
appears there are at least six Commissioners available for each meeting this summer.
Chair Rodgers suggested that if fewer than four or five Commissioners are present only
Design Review issues should be considered and not Use Permits.
Director John Livingstone:
• Advised that staff is filling up the summer PC agendas without a summer break. (After
some discussion among the Commission, it became clear that four Commissioners were
unavailable for the July 25, 2007, meeting so that meeting date will serve as a summer
recess.)
• Announced that he would like to conduct training with City Attorneys Richard Taylor and
Jonathan Wittwer on the Brown Act and other issues and asked for suggested dates. June
12th was tentatively selected and will be confirmed by email.
Commissioner Kundtz said he would prefer such a training session immediately following a
site visit.

PROJECT DISCUSSION
Site Description and Project Summary
The applicant is proposing to establish a coffee and tea shop in a currently vacant tenant
space between Park Saratoga Dental and Chicago Title. The space in located in the Park
Saratoga commercial complex, in close proximity to the intersection of Saratoga - Sunnyvale
Road and Prospect Road. The 2,400 square foot tenant space faces Saratoga - Sunnyvale
Road and has been vacant for over a year. Residential duplexes are located behind the
commercial center.
The proposed floor plan includes both interior and exterior seating areas, with 25 seats
located inside and 15 seats located outside. The outdoor seating area will be located where
the pedestrian area widens toward the parking lot to allow for unobstructed passage through
the complex. Photographs of this area are attached to this staff 'report ( #3 and #4 in
Attachment 2). The applicant has obtained permission from the property owner to occupy
this area for patrons of the coffee and tea shop. The shop will have 18 employees, with 4
per shift.
Requirements for a Conditionally Permitted Use
The proposed coffee and tea shop is classified as a restaurant pursuant to the City Code.
Establishing and operating a restaurant in any of Saratoga's commercial. zoning districts
requires the issuance of a Conditional Use Permit from the Planning Cmmission. This
process acknowledges that this use may be permitted if findings can be made, and allows
the Planning Commission to impose conditions to ensure that a project is compatible with
surrounding land uses and in compliance with applicable City regulations. The granting of a
Conditional Use Permit shall be based on the findings stated in City Code Article 15 -55. A
discussion of these findings is provided in this staff report.
Correspondence and Neighbor Review
All neighbors within 500 feet of the project site were notified (Attachment 3): Staff has
received no comments from the public at the time of composing this staff report. The
applicant has notified adjacent business owners and neighbors regarding the proposed use.
That correspondence is also attached to this staff report (Attachment 4). The applicant has
also submitted a petition in support of the project (Attachment 5).
Hours of Operation
The proposed operating hours are from 5:00 am to 10:00 pm, daily. In an effort to ensure
that the .applicant has flexibility for the operation of the coffee and tea. shop, staff has not
added a condition, of approval regarding hours of operation. The applicant has indicated
that products, such as baked goods, are typically delivered in the early mornings using small
vans or trucks. As these deliveries will be made to the front of the shop, there should be no
impact on neighbors. In addition, all employee access to the shop will be through the front
door.
Circulation and Parking
is
07 -275; 12148 Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road; Peet's Coffee and Tea
The applicant has provided Staff with a traffic study analyzing the potential increase in trip
generation due to the proposed use (Attachment 6). The report was conducted by Pang
Engineers, Inc., Traffic and Transportation Consultants. The report differentiates between
traffic that would already be on the road, prior to stopping at the restaurant, and "primary'
trips, in which the coffee and tea shop would be the destination. The report concludes that
the proposed project will generate an estimated 22 and 12 new primary trips during the AM
and PM peak hours, respectively and, therefore, have an insignificant impact on traffic. The
threshold for requiring a focused Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA), as set by the Santa Clara
Valley Transportation Authority guidelines, is 100 peak hour trips for both the AM and PM
peak hours.
The Zoning Code stipulates that parking requirements be assessed at the time of initial
occupancy or change in use of a site. The proposed establishment of a restaurant qualifies
as an intensification of use, as an office was previously located within the tenant space. This
change would result in a requirement of 22 additional spaces.. A traffic study and parking
demand survey, which was conducted on April 11 and 25, 2007, showed an excess of
available parking. The actual parking demand showed an 8:00 to 9:00 AM peak of 23
vehicles, a 12:00 to 1:00 PM mid -day peak of 56 vehicles, and a 4:00 to 5:00 PM afternoon
peak of 36 vehicles. With approximately 175 parking stalls in the lot, there was always
sufficient parking available. Several scenarios were conducted by the traffic consultant and,
in the worst case condition, approximately 48 percent of the parking stalls would remain
vacant. Staff has also visited the site numerous times and seen ample parking availability.
Based on data from other Bay Area Peet's Coffee & Tea shops, forty percent of the business
will be conducted before 10:00 in the morning. Much of the parking demand generated by
Peet's will take place before the other restaurants open. Therefore, Staff finds that the
available parking will be sufficient.
Signage
The proposed signage meets all City Code requirements and the criteria for the approved
Park Saratoga sign program in regards to illumination, size, and color (Attachment 7).
Design Review
Two new exit doors, which are required by the Fire Department, will match the existing
entry door. New window glazing and wood siding will be added in order to accommodate
this change. The wood trim around the doors and windows and the wood siding around the
windows will match the existing building in material, finish, and color. Metal mesh Bistro
tables and armchairs and wood -framed market umbrellas are proposed for the outdoor
dining area. The color, style, and specifications will match those shown in Attachment 7.
Planters with flowering plants will be installed around the outdoor dining area. This
landscaping, along with the furniture and umbrellas will provide an inviting focal point for
visitors as they enter from Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road. The management of Park Saratoga
will work with Staff regarding the specification and location of the planters and the possible
installation of an arbor.
Economic Impacts
07 -275; 12148 Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road; Peet's Coffee and Tea
General Plan Land Use Policy LU 7.1 states, "The City shall consider the economic impacts
of all land use decisions on the City." If approved, this project will enhance the pedestrian
environment and commercial visibility through the location of the outdoor dining. It will
expand the hours during which this commercial center acts as an economic destination and,
with its location near the City boundary, may generate business from neighboring
communities. The project will provide a good balance of different uses in the center and
provide a nearby coffee shop for those residents in the immediate vicinity.
Use Permit Findings
The proposed project supports the findings for Conditional Use Permit approval:
• 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. Findings can be made in the affirmative in that a restaurant may be
a conditionally permitted use in the designated zoning district (C -V). The City
Code encourages a variety of uses within the commercial zone "to promote stable,
attractive. commercial development." The proposed use will join other restaurants
that are already located in the complex. By expanding the hours of the commercial
complex, offering a destination during non -peak hours, and providing outdoor
dining that will be visible to passersby; the proposed business has the potential to
enhance the economic development of the Gateway district.
• 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 properties or improvements
in the. vicinity. Findings can be made in the affirmative in that appropriate
conditions have been placed on the use permit to ensure compliance with all
applicable health and safety codes. The proposed restaurant will not be detrimental
to the public health, as it has been conditioned to meet all applicable Building
Codes. Employee and customer access will be through the front of the store,
thereby minimizing any impact on the residential area located behind the complex.
Cleanliness of the outdoor dining area will be maintained by the applicant.
• That the proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable
provisions of this chapter. Findings can be made in the affirmative in that
appropriate conditions have been placed on the use permit to ensure compliance
with code requirements. Any intensification of this use will require an amended
Conditional Use permit.
• The proposed conditional use will not adversely affect existing or anticipated uses
in the immediate neighborhood, and will not adversely affect surrounding
properties or the occupants thereof. Findings can be made in the affirmative in
that the proposed coffee and tea shop may attract more visitors to the Gateway
District and therefore may-result in additional customers for other businesses in •
the general vicinity of the subject property. Although there is a residential area
07 -275; 12148 Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road; Peet's Coffee and Tea
located behind the center, there should be no significant impact from the proposed
business as employee access and product and supply deliveries will be made
through the front door, facing Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road.
Commercial Structure Design Review
The proposed project supports the criteria for Commercial Structure Design Review:
• The architectural features shall be harmonious. Materials and colors used in the
modifications to the windows, doors, and siding will match those of the existing
building.
• Multiple signs shall have a common or compatible design and locational
positions and shall be harmonious in appearance. The two signs will be
compatible in color and design with the existing signs in the complex, pursuant to
the Park Saratoga sign program, and will be comparably located above the entry and
in the window.
Gateway Design Goals
The proposed project supports the Gateway Design Goals:
• Enhance the Neighborhood Quality of Life. The project will provide a service to
the neighborhood and will minimize impacts to the residential neighborhood located
at the rear of the complex by positioning its activities toward the front of the
property along Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road.
• Successful Business Environment in the Saratoga - Sunnyvale Corridor. The
location of the outdoor dining will enhance business visibility and help to attract
customers to the complex. The patio dining and landscape will provide a focal point
as visitors enter from Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road.
General Plan Land Use Policy
The proposed project supports the General Plan Land Use Policy:
• The City shall consider the economic impacts of all land use decisions on the
City. If approved, this project will enhance the pedestrian environment and
commercial visibility through the location of the outdoor dining. It will expand
the hours during which this commercial center acts as an economic destination
and, with its location near the City boundary, may attract business from
neighboring communities.
Conclusion
SThe project satisfies all of the findings required within Section 15- 55.070 of the Saratoga
City Code. The proposed restaurant is. not expected to be detrimental to the public health,
07 -275; 12148 Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road; Peet's Coffee and Tea
safety or welfare nor is it expected to be materially injurious to properties or
improvements in the vicinity. The proposal further satisfies all other zoning regulations
applicable to restaurant uses, commercial design review, and signage and supports the
General Plan Land Use Policy and the Gateway Design Goals. Staff recommends that the
Planning Commission approve the proposed coffee and tea shop (Application 07 -275) by
making all required Conditional Use Permit and Sign Approval findings in the affirmative
and adopting the attached Resolution.

Peet's Coffee & Tea is proposing a project at the above stated address and would like to provide
you with an opportunity to review the proposal and provide comments. All of the adjacent
neighbors and the neighbors across the street from the property are being provided the attached
notice as a courtesy in advance of the standard City Notice which will be sent out prior to a
decision being made on the project.
The City of Saratoga asks the attached form and a reduced set of plans be signed by each
neighbor to indicate that they have had an opportunity to review the proposal. Please be advised
that these plans are preliminary and may change. If you have further interest in the project, you
may contact the City of Saratoga at (408)868 -1222 and speak with the assigned project planner.
Known as the "grandfather of specialty coffee;' Peet's Coffee & Tea has been a Berkeley institution
since opening its doors more than forty years ago. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Peet's Coffee &
Tea was a pioneer among other food purveyors in Berkeley's "gourmet ghetto" - a collection of
European style shops and restaurants. Today, traditional values are maintained through the hard
work and attention to detail that is essential to creating coffees of distinction. The roasting facility is
in Emeryville, just a few miles from the original location on Vine Street in Berkeley, which still attracts
a large, loyal following, including many who are proud that they have been customers since the
store opened in 1966.
Thank you for your interest in the development of this project. Please contact me with any
questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Margaret Trujillo
Peet's Coffee& Tea

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMEN,
Peet's Coffee & Tea is proposing a project at the above stated address and would like to provide
you with an opportunity to review the proposal and provide comments. All of the adjacent
neighbors and the neighbors across the street from the property are being provided the attached
notice as a courtesy in advance of the standard City Notice which will be sent out prior to a
decision being made on the project.
The City of Saratoga asks the attached form and a reduced set of plans be signed by each
neighbor to indicate that they have. had an opportunity to review the proposal. Please be advised
that these plans are preliminary and may change. If you have further interest in the project, you
may contact the City of Saratoga at (408)868 -1222 and speak with the assigned project planner.
Known as the "grandfather of specialty coffee," Peet's Coffee & Tea has been a Berkeley institution
since opening its doors more than forty years ago. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Peet's Coffee &
Tea was a. pioneer among other food purveyors in Berkeley's "gourmet ghetto" - a collection of
European style shops and restaurants. Today, traditional values are maintained through the.hard
work and attention to detail that is essential to creating coffees of distinction. The roasting facility is
in Emeryville, just a few miles from the original location on Vine Street in Berkeley, which still attracts
a large, loyal following, including many who are proud that they have been customers since the
store opened in 1966.

Re: Park Saratoga Shopping Center _
12140 and 1214$ Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road
Saratoga, CA
Dear Mg. Trujillo:
Pursuant to your recent request, we have reviewed the applicable project informatio , .
and visited the existing Park Saratoga Shopping Center site on the east side of'Saratoga
Sunnyv4lc Road, between Prospect Road and Kirkmont Drive. + We have afro
cominudicated with the City of Saratoga, CA regarding the proposed scope: bf ..
professional Traffic and Transportation Engineering and Parking services desired.
The proposed. project consists of replacing a Title Company office land' use with s.'
Peet's Coffee & Tea restaurant use within the identical 2,400 square feet of.gross flg6t
eta (CT A). The project site is within a complex of land uses in what is known. +
Building B in the Park Saratoga Shopping Center.
The objective is to provide an appropriate Trip Generation Comparison of the proposed ;
land use and compare it with the existing 2,400 square feet of office use. Additi6il )y,
the City` of Saratoga is desirous of a comment regarding whether the existing parking
stalls will be sufficient with the proposed project in place.
=.STING CONDITION
The project site contains the Park Saratoga Shopping Center or Building l3. Building g.
is occupied with several businesses e.g. Crepe Daniele restaurant, Quizno's testaurant, "a
title conipany to be replaced with feet's Coffee & Tea, North American Title Cor*4,
Park Saratoga Dental, Chicago Title Company, Chef Wong's restaurant, #r(d' .•`
Countrywide Home Loans. Immediately to the north is the Santa Clara Valley N. f T1
IN YIE-w I
A CW Bank building, and to the south the Washington Mutual bank building. .These.'tNV6
ANN
e''9 {04° buildings, while on separate parcels, are connected with travel aisles, and vehicles nib '
traverse'the parking lot in front of and to the west of Building B,

To the'east of the Santa Clara Valley National Bank building and its parking lot ;'.is
Atrium• Drive. Immediately to the east of Atrium Drive and fronting ontp Prospect.: "
Road, a four lane major cast -west street with a posted speed of 40 rules per•hour 666),
are the .Christian Righteousness Education Center, and Prospect Dental Care, To the
east ofIBuilding B are residential duplex units. To the south of the Washington'M%44.
bank building is Kirkmont Drive,.a two lane east -west residential collector Street Willi a
posted _speed of 25 mph. To the south of Kirkmont Drive are additional residential ..;
duplex'. units, as well as a building occupied with Shaw Chiropractic ;Clinic,• 0). _.
Republic Title Company etc. -- To the -west of Building B is Saratoga - Sunnyvale Road, a
four lane major north -south street with a posted speed of 40 mph. Saratoga- Sutttiyyl::.
Road has recently been improved with a median landscaping project: To. ttte we;;Y pf:
Saratoga- Sunnyvale Road and near Prospect Road are a Union 76 gas stittiion, "a Chickon .
Salsa restaurant, Coldwell Banker real estate office, etc. Further southerly in: a separate:"
building are a Jake's restaurant, United Real Estate office, a computer repair facility; a`
L.earnirlg Center, etc.
Northerly of the project site is an existing traffic signal at the Saratoga- '$unnyv4le'.'.
Road/Prospect Road intersection. Immediately southerly of the project Site is tie
tutsignalized intersection of Saratoga - Sunnyvale RoadMrkmont Drvo, where "tbc
minor Cross street is controlled with a STOP sign. Further southerly of:Kirkmoht Drive .
along Saratoga- Sunnyvale Road is a traffic signal at Seagull Way.
FUTURE CONDMON
The 2,400 square feet of office space will be replaced with a Peet's Coffee &. Tea.. p
restaurant within the identical 2,400 square feet plus an additional outdoor .seating
of approximately 126 square feet, and is known as the "proposed project ".
TRIP GENERATION COMPARISON
Several- sources were investigated which would provide a reasonable estirtiate of the
trip generation for the AM and PM peak hours. These include the Itistiiuie 'of
Transportation Engineers . (rrE) and San Diego Association of :Govet7irrie6.ts'
(SANE'AG) trip generation references for a Fast Food restaurant wit> but &.drive -i *_
window. Feet's Coffee & Tea has also collected information from an internal survey*of.,
seven South Bay sites.
The "proposed project" as a Fast Food restaurant without a drive -thru window iticltt cs:
" and is expected to generate approximately 105 AM and, 63. .
the coffze shop . use, a� p 15 pp
peak hour trips based on the ITE Trip Generation reference. A percentage of.thest:•�%..;
hour trips are already on the street network and may be. considered as "pas5V, ai ..ror
"diverted" trips. A "passby" trip is defined as traffic already on the street network aril ,
b'

"passing by" the site, Usually, the trip is about equal to or less than one. mile in lehgth.
A "diverted" trip is a "linked" trip having one or more stops along the prl!AOX
y
destination route, and usually is equal to or greater than one mile in 1e'q' . gth. . e.'.
"primary" trips are the new trips on the street network after deducting the "passby" aild
p b
"diverted" trips.
Pang E> gineers, Inc. has previously performed studies at a Fast Food :restaurant aqw
the Dewknza Boulevard and Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road corridor which r is ul:
-approximately an 857o "passby" rate. Peet's Coffee & Tea internal; 8)LirvPyVAr.:-
"passby'' traffic range between 70% and 80%. Since the project site is.,on the e0t a
.of S s
Saratoga- Sunnyvale Road within the City of Saratoga, with driver he'ad'ffi-g-
during the AM peak hour, it appears that a passby rate of about 75% would be a
reasonable assumption. When 75% "passby" trips are deducted from the, oii irW
estimate, the new primary trips would be at 26AM and 16 PM peak hour trips..
The existing 2,400 square. feet for a title company office has a "Lraf.PC Credit". which
was estimated to'generate 4 AM and 4 PM peak hour trips.
The expected net project trips are obtained by subtracting the existing title compaty
office lind use from the "proposed project" of a Fast Food restaurant wiitfio' t.' a driv'
t7
�dow. The net project is expected to have an increase of 22AM primary dim w1 y peik
hour trios, and an increase of 12PM primary peak hour trips (Table 1).
The trip' generation estimates may also be analyzed utilizing the Peet's Coffee & TCr4
'
ihtemal survey data. During the 7AM to 9AM peak period, the avemge number 6f
evistomeXs is 53 per hour. For the 4PM to 6PM peak period, the average hurnber
:J
customers is 36 per hour. Thus, the PM peak hour generates about 6ko (36/53).01 toe*.
AM peik hour customers. Saratoga has an average of about 7% of its vchialm
designated as carpools based on their internal surveys. If the assumption is'. that t& �
mpployq.,es would arrive prior to the commencement of the street peak boor, that a#,
deliveries were to occur outside of the street peak hour or replaced by 18'n* dring t4e-
empoolirig factor, then the estimated trip generation would be calcujated.. Witb..t
numberof customers x 2 for the inbound and outbound trips for the AM apd. PM pe,11
hours. Thus, this simplistic check would Yield about 106 (53 x 2) vs 105 for the.
peak hopr, and 72 (36 x 2) vs 63 for the PM peak hour in Table I before the "p-assby"
trips areldeducted. These calculations are quite close to the estimates shown on Ta6la
-thru window. Thus, the'trip t
for the Fast Food restaurant without a drive i* �)).
estimated shown on Table I appear to be reasonable.
Thus, the "proposed project" is expected to add new primaty trips. totaling les6 than'' 100.
ffi'
peak hour trips for both the AM and PM peak hours, and a focus ed Traffic IM pact'
Aiialysis (M) is not required based on the Santa Clara Valley Transportation:
Authority (VTA) guidelines.

Thus, the conclusion is that the parking requirements for Building B.. Washin t 0
Mutual, and the Santa Clara Valley National Bank building are overstated in
code b' about 48%, and that there should be adequate parking with the Y pr
project.
In sunihiary, the trip generation comparison indicates that the proposed proj&t

t" AM and by
itspect illy, and well below the VTA mandated 100 peak hour trips requir6d 0"

a focused TIA. Additionally, with the pat-king supply, demand and ac6nlvt—j'
AnAlys4 for the worst case condition, there should be adequate par&`ng i
Santa parking areas in front of Building B, Washington Mutual, and the V4
9
Nat*ionil Bank lots, which are all interconnected on the ground.
Thus, the project is considered to have an insignificant traffic impact with the, wo
generation comparison and the parking accumulation analyses.

REPORT TO THE PLANNING
COMMISSION
Agenda Item: ORDINANCE CORRECTION TO
SECTION 15- 29.010(b) OF THE SARATOGA CITY
CODE RELATING TO HEIGHT RESTRICTIONS
FOR FENCES, WALLS AND HEDGES
Prepared By: Chris Riordan and Jana Rinaldi
Date: May 9, 2007
Department Head: John Livingstone 9z—
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff recommends the Planning Commission make a recommendation to the City Council to adopt
minor corrections to Section 15- 29.010(b).
DISCUSSION:
During last year's update to the Zoning Ordinance, the word "yard" was removed from the ordinance
for consistency purposes in favor of the word "setback ". Prior to the change, both words had been
used interchangeably. A consequence of removing the word "yard" from the ordinance, Section 15-
29.010(b) (Fences, Walls, and Hedges), is that the ordinance is no longer enforceable on the height
of fences in the front yard setback area of interior lots. Staff initially became aware of the missing
text when researching a code enforcement complaint concerning a resident who had built a six foot
fence in their front yard setback.
The existing ordinance text and the proposed revisions are as follows. Text to be added is indicated
in bold double - underlined font (e.g., bold double - underlined).
Existing Ordinance Text
15- 29.010 Height restrictions.
(a) General regulation. Except as otherwise specified in this Article, no fence or wall shall
exceed six feet in height.
(b) Front and exterior side setback area of reversed corner lots. No fence or wall located
within any required front or exterior side setback area of a reversed corner lot shall exceed three
feet in height, except as follows:
(1) A fence or wall lawfully constructed prior to March 20, 1987, may extend to a height not
exceeding six feet, if such fence or wall does not create a safety hazard for vehicular, pedestrian
or bicycle traffic and does not obstruct the safe access to or from adjacent properties; provided,
however, that upon the destruction or removal of more than one -half of the length of such
nonconforming fence or wall, any replacement fence or wall shall not exceed three feet in height.
(2) Wrought iron entrance gates, designed with openings to permit visibility through the same,
may extend to a height not exceeding five feet.
(3) Safety railings that are required by the Uniform Building Code shall be excluded from the
height requirements of this Section.
Proposed Ordinance Text
15- 29.010 Height restrictions.
(a) General regulation. Except as otherwise specified in this Article, no fence or wall shall exceed
six feet in height.
(b) Front setback No fence or wall located within any required front setback shall exceed
three feet in height.
(c) Exterior side setback area of reversed corner lots. No fence or wall located within any
exterior side setback area of a reversed corner lot shall exceed three feet in height.
(d Exceptions to the above fence height limitations are as follows:
(1) A fence or wall lawfully constructed prior to March 20, 1987, may extend to a height not
exceeding six feet, if such fence or wall does not create a safety hazard for vehicular, pedestrian
or bicycle traffic and does not obstruct the safe access to or from adjacent properties; provided,
however, that upon the destruction or removal of more than one -half of the length of such
nonconforming fence or wall, any replacement fence or wall shall not exceed three feet in height.
(2) Wrought iron entrance gates, designed with openings to permit visibility through the same,
may extend to a height not exceeding five feet.
(3) Safety railings that are required by the Uniform Building Code shall be excluded from the
height requirements of this Section.
ADVERTISING AND NOTICING:
Pursuant to Government Code Sections 65853 and 65090, a 1/8 size notice was placed in the
newspaper and the agenda was properly posted.

Design Review Findings
The proposed project is consistent with all the following Design Review findings stated
in City Code Section 15- 45.080:
(a) Avoid unreasonable interference with views and privacy. The project meets this
finding in that the proposed house is a single -story house well below the
maximum height allowed and will be screened by existing mature trees that
surround the site.
(b) Preserve Natural Landscape. This finding may be made in the affirmative in that
minimal grading and topographical changes are proposed in conjunction with this
project. All of the existing mature trees on the property will be protected
throughout the construction process.
(c) Preserve Native and Heritage Trees. The project meets this finding in that 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. These
trees will be protected during the construction process with tree fencing and the

zoning designation which the parcel is located. The design is consistent across
each fagade and incorporates various architectural detailing such as dormers,
cedar siding and stone accents. Additionally, the home has been designed to
follow the topography of the site in order to minimize excessive bulk.
(e) Compatible bulk and height. This finding can be made in the affirmative in that
the structure is well - designed and is overall compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood. The home is compatible to other homes in the neighborhood with
its single -story design and quality materials.
(f) 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 maintain storm water on site where feasible and therefore this finding may be

Application #: 07 -239

Prepared by Kate Bear, City Arborist
Phone (408) 868 -1276
The property owner of 14494 Nutwood Lane has submitted plans to the city to add on to and remodel
their home, including addition of a basement. The swimming pool and the children's play equipment will
be relocated.
Ten trees protected by City Ordinance 15 -050 and potentially impacted by construction were inventoried
for this project. Data for each tree is included in a Tree Inventory Table at the end of this report. Tree
locations are noted on the attached copy of the Site Survey.
Plans reviewed for this report include Sheet A -1, Cover Sheet and Sheet A -2, Site Plan, dated January 10,
2007 by Paul Belotti Architecture; the Site Survey dated January 2, 2007 by L. Wade Hammond; Sheet 1,
Grading and Drainage Plan, dated January 2, 2007 by Giuliani and Kull, Inc.; and Sheets L -1 to L -4,
Landscape Plan, Irrigation, Planting Plan and Notes, no date, by Small Brown Landscape Architects.
SITE OBSERVATIONS, PLAN REVIEW AND TECHNICAL DISCUSSION
Ten trees are potentially impacted by construction. They include one coast redwood ( #1), one black
walnut ( #2) and eight Douglas fir trees ( #3 —10). Tree #2 is not shown on the plans and should be
surveyed and included in the revised plans.
The basement and new addition in the front of the house will have a significant impact on the redwood
( #1) in the front yard where they extend under the canopy of the tree. The proposed design has both a
basement and a first floor addition approximately eight feet from the trunk of the redwood, impacting a
significant portion of the tree's root zone. I recommend that this portion of the house be redesigned so
that excavation for the basement is not required under the canopy of the tree. That means that the floor
plan for the basement plus any over excavation necessary to create it should remain a minimum of sixteen
feet from the trunk of the tree.. For best protection of the redwood, the first floor addition to the front of
the house also should not extend beyond the existing front wall of the house. If necessary to construct the
first floor addition as currently designed it must be constructed so that the root zone of the redwood is not
impacted, such as with a cantilevered foundation.
The front yard walkway will be reconfigured according to the proposed plans. This will place it under the
canopy of the redwood. Materials for the walkway should be pervious rather than concrete, and on top of
grade for the portion underneath the redwood tree. No excavation should occur to construct the walkway,
and no roots measuring two inches or greater should be cut during construction.

The irrigation main line may be located underneath the redwood tree. The trench for this line, as well as
all lateral irrigation lines should be located outside of all tree canopies. In addition, the planter under the
0
redwood shows a number of plants, including trees. There should be no excavation for irrigation or large
planting holes (such as for trees) underneath the redwood. Rather, plans should be on drip irrigation that
is placed on top of grade under a mulch to avoid trenching.
Sheet 1 shows grading and drainage for the house. The plans show one drain line just outside of the
planter containing the redwood, and it should be relocated to 20 feet from the its trunk. There is also a
cleanout shown on the north side of the property by the dog kennel that appears to be very close to other
redwoods. It should be relocated so it is not under the canopies of the trees.
Grading is shown to occur under the black walnut ( #2). This species is very sensitive to changes in grade
and may die if care is not taken to avoid grade changes under its canopy.
The relocation of the play structure appears to require the removal of trees #4 and 5, but this is not shown
on the drawings. If it is necessary to remove any protected trees in order to construct the design, this
should.be shown on the revised plans.
No utilities are shown on the plans and should be included in the revised plans. Utilities should include
water, sanitary sewer, gas and electrical.
Per City Ordinance 15- 50.080, a bond amount of $53,340, which is equal to 100% of the total appraised
value of trees #1 - 10, is required. Appraisal values are calculated according to the Guide for Plant
Appraisal,. 9h Edition, published by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), 2000.
REQUIREMENTS
1. This entire report, including the Tree Inventory Table and the map showing location of tree and
protective fencing, shall be incorporated into the set of final building plans.
2. Tree protective fencing shall be installed as shown on the attached map and established prior to
any grading or the arrival of construction equipment or materials on site. it shall be comprised of
six -foot high chain link fencing mounted on eight -foot tall, two -inch diameter galvanized posts,
driven 24 inches into the ground and spaced no more than 10 feet apart. Once established, the
fencing must remain undisturbed and be maintained throughout the construction process
until nnarinspection. Tree protective fencing shall be inspected and approved by the City
Arborist prior to obtaining building division permits.
in the amount of $53,340, prior to obtaining building
3. Owner shall provide a tree protection bond,
division permits.
4. City Arborist shall approve any grading or trenching under a tree's canopy prior to performing
work. If approved, it shall be done manually using shovels. Any roots measuring two inches or
larger shall be retained and tunneled under; roots measuring less than two inches may be cut with
a sharp pruning instrument.
5. Plans shall show locations for all utilities including electrical, drainage, water, sewer and gas fines.

�J
6. Trees shall be watered every three weeks duri ng the dry summer months or more often as
necessary to ensure their continued good health. Water using a soaker hose or drip line midway
between the trunk and the edge of the canopy. Use enough water so that the soil is moist to a
depth of one foot deep.
7. Unless otherwise approved, all construction activities must be conducted outside the designated
fenced area (even after fencing is removed). These activities include, but are not necessarily
limited to, the following: demolition, grading, trenching, equipment cleaning, stockpiling and
dumping materials (including soil fill), and equipment/vehicle operation and parking.
8. Landscape plans should be designed as follows:
a. Design irrigation main and lateral lines to remain outside of tree canopies. Show lateral
lines on irrigation plan.
b. Design irrigation so that it does not spray trunks of trees. Locate valve boxes and
controllers outside tree canopies.
C. No more than 20% of the area under the tree canopies may be planted. Select plants with
similar water requirements to the trees under which they will be placed.
d. Design lawns so that there is at least two feet between it and the trunk of any tree; confine
lawn areas to the outside 20% of the area under the canopy.
e. Plant only drought tolerant plants compatible with oaks under the outer 20% of the canopy
of the oak tree. Do not include lawn within the drip line the oak. I recommend placing
mulch under the canopy instead of a lawn.
f. Design topdressings so that stones or mulch remain at least one foot from the trunks of
retained trees and 6 inches from the trunks of new trees.
g. Do not allow tilling or stripping of the topsoil beneath the trees' canopies, including for
weed control.
h. Establish bender board or other edging material proposed beneath tree canopies on top of
existing soil grade (such as by using stakes).
9. Any pruning of trees on site must be performed by a licensed tree contractor under the supervision
of an ISA Certified Arborist and according to ISA standards.
10. The disposal of harmful products (such as chemicals, oil and gasoline) is prohibited beneath tree
canopies or anywhere on site that allows drainage beneath tree canopies. Additionally, fuel shall
not be stored nor shall any refueling or maintenance of equipment occur within 20 feet of the
tree's trunks.
11. Herbicides shall not be applied beneath the tree canopies. Where used on site, they must be
labeled for safe use near trees.

INTRODUCTION
a
Application #: 07 -239
March 28, 2007
Prepared by Kate Bear,. City Arborist
Phone (408) 868 -1276
This report responds to a letter dated March 15, 2007 from Mr. Paul Belotti, the architect for the project at
14494 Nutwood Lane, in response to the initial arborist report dated March 2, 2007 noting the changes
that will occur in the project as a result of the report. In addition, since the first review of the plans for
this project, I have reviewed Debbie Ellis arborist report for the project.
SITE OBSERVATIONS, PLAN REVIEW AND TECHNICAL DISCUSSION
The main impact of the addition and the basement is to redwood #1 at the front of the house. The owners
have hired Debbie Ellis to monitor the excavation at this location to ensure that the tree is protected
during construction of the basement. The project proposes that excavation for the comer of the basement
bedroom will be ten feet from the trunk of the tree. I recommend that it stay twelve feet from the trunk of
the tree even though it is just a corner of the room. This is still closer than what is recommended in
Debbie Ellis.' report or my first report, but I feel it can be safely accomplished with her monitoring the
excavation. The first floor will be cantilevered over the root system of the'tree and this can be done with
minimal impact to the tree.
The front yard walkway will be reconfigured and composed of flagstone on sand or similar materials on
top of grade underneath the redwood tree. This is acceptable.
The irrigation main line is far enough from redwood #l. Lateral lines should be shown on the plans or
stay completely outside of tree canopies.
Sheet 1 shows a drain line fifteen feet from the redwood, and it should be relocated to a distance at least
20 feet from the tree and preferably farther so as to minimize impacts to the redwood. Trenching for this
drain line has the potential to impact up to 50% of the redwood's root system. Between this and
excavation for the basement, there can be a significant impact to the tree. Relocating the drain line farther
from the tree will mitigate this.
Tree protective fencing can protect walnut #2 from grading activities.
Plans should show all utilities, including water, sanitary sewer, gas and electrical.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. This report shall be included in the final set of building plans.

We propose several energy saving features in regards to the remodel /addition to
the above stated project.
a) The windows will be High Performance Low -E and argon gas filled wood
construction.
b) The heat gain for the majority of the exterior wall and glazing area on the
South and West sides of the conditioned structure is mitigated by a
covered porch and existing and transplanted deciduous trees.
c) On- demand type water heaters are proposed instead of a tank type
units.
d) A 90% minimum efficient type forced air unit will be used for the ground
floor.
e) We are investigating the use of a geothermal hydronic type heating
system for the basement level with a dedicated exhausting system..
f) Additional insulation has been designed between the basement ceiling
and the ground floor dramatically beyond the State requirements.
g) 2 x 6 exterior wall construction will accommodate additional wall insulation
beyond the State requirements.
19140 Portos Drive, Saratoga, CA 95070 • Ph: 408/867.1370 Fx: 408/867.0791
h) Existing solar panels for heating the swimming pool that are located on the
'South (rear) roof will be replaced to accommodate the new pool.
If you have any additional questions, please feel free to call me.
Thank you,
Paul 6elott '
