RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SARATOGA UPHOLDING A DECISION O:P THE PLANNING
COMMON
WHEREAS, BRIAN KELLY DEVELOPMENT, the applicant, has applied to
the City of Saratoga for tentative map approval for a 5 lot subdivision of the property
located at 13500 Saratoga Avenue, such application being identified as SDR-1622, and
WHEREAS, on June 25, 1986, the Planning Commission of the City of
Saratoga conducted a public hearing on said application, and following the conclusion
thereof, the Planning Commission approved the application subject to a condition that
all of the residences to be constructed shall be single-story; and
WHEREAS, the applicant has appealed the condition imposed by the
Planning Commission to the City Council; and
WHEREAS, on August 6, 1986, the City Council conducted a de novo public
hearing on the appeal, at which time any person interested in the matter was given an
opportunity to be heard; and
WHEREAS, the City Council reviewed and considered the staff reports,
minutes of proceedings conducted by the Planning Commission relating to said
application, and the written and oral evidence presented to the City Council in support
of and in opposition to the appeal,
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Saratoga, at its
meeting on August 6, 1986, by a vote of 3-2 with Councilmembers Moyles and Peterson
dissenting, did resolve as follows:
1. The appeal from the Planning Commission was denied and the
decision of the Planning Commission was affirmed.
2. The condition that all residences within the subdivision be single-
story was found to be a reasonable mitigation measure to preserve
the character and integrity of the neighborhood, which is
predominately comprised of single-story homes, and the views
currently enjoyed by the occupants of adjacent properties. Each of
the lots within the subdivision exceeds the minimum standard of
20,000 square feet and therefore provides sufficient area for the
construction of a single-story structure.
