APPEAL 15313 WINCHESTER BOULEVARD
Mayor Ventura stated this was the time and place duly noted for continued public
hearing to consider an appeal of Planning Commission's approval of Subdivision
Application M-85-15A for a 3-lot subdivision in the R-1:8000 Zone. Property
located at 15313 Winchester Boulevard. Tom Suvada, 105 Millrich Drive,
submitted photographs and drawings to Council in support of his appeal. He is
the representative of the Millrich Drive residents and requests Council to over
turn the Planning Commissions decision to approve the subdivision. He feels the
long tapering property does not have enough true depth at the Winchester end to
support a development that is consistent with the neighborhood. He suggested
the developer buy the Wax property and develop six lots similar to the ones
across the street rather than developing three undesirable lots. In summary he
stated they are not against the development and support a good plan of
developing six lots and against the bad planning of "shoehorning" three lots on
this site. On May 12, 1986 a letter was sent to the Design Review Committee
that stated they (the neighbors) would support a 2-lot subdivision. A corner lot
containing the main house and one lot to the west of the main house. Virginia
Fanelli, 1175 Saratoga Ave., San Jose, representing the applicant spoke in
support of denying the appeal and approving the map. She stated the fact that
the property next happens to be up for sale, at this time, is not part of this
application. This subdivision has been subjected to excessive review and they
have made every concession possible to become good neighbors. Jerome
Block, 109 Millrich Drie; George Feineman, 119 Millrich Drive; Dwaine Fowler,
16720 Magneson Loop; Estelle Feineman, 119 Millrich Drive; Linda Nelson, 131
Millrich Drive; Cindy Fowler 16720 Magneson Loop all spoke in support of the
appeal. Speaking in opposition to granting the appeal was Jose Villa, JLR
Properties Developer, answered Council's questions and spoke in support of his
subdivision. Gene Kester, 151 Whitney, spoke in support of the subdivision
stating Council asked the developer to return with a 3-lot subdivision. Mr. Ferrito
wished the record to show that Council never asked the developer to come back
with three lots. Council indicated three lots may be appropriate as a maximum.
This was a compromise among five people with radically different views. Lee
Bowman, Planning director; Mary Jo Levinger, Town Attorney; and Brad Honholt,
Civic Engineer for Mr. Suvada answered questions of Council. No one else from
the audience wished to speak on this issue. Mr. Carlson moved the public
hearing be closed. Mr. Ferrito seconded. Carried unanimously. Mr. Carlson
stated, for the record, the staff report has been that this is legal. Mr. Bowman
answered questions of the legality of this project. Mr. Ferrito moved to grant the
appeal finding that the State Map Act Section 66474, Sub-section C and D apply.
C being that the site is not physically suitable for the type of development.
Specifically that the lot depth has not been met. D, that the site is not physically
suitable for the proposed density of development. Specifically, the proposed
density does not match the geography of the existing lot. Mr. Ferrito supports his
motion with the Town Attorney's memo, dated December 11, 1986. Section
2.00.315 of the Zoning Ordinance, "as is evident however. parcels meeting all of
these requirements that the 8,000 sq. ft. and the lot depth, are not necessarily
physically suitable for development depending on the size and shape of the
buildable area (lot area minus building setback) of the lot. Mayor Ventura
seconded. Motion failed. Mrs. Benjamin, Mr. Carlson and Mr. Hamilton voted
no. Mr. Hamilton moved that Council finds the Planning Commission considered
fairly this meets the requirements; deny the appeal; and the Town Attorney to
prepare an appropriate resolution. Motion died for lack of second. There was
further discussion by Council. The applicant stated they would like a decision this
evening. Mr. Ferrito moved to grant the appeal. Mayor Ventura seconded.
Motion failed. Mrs. Benjamin, Mr. Carlson and Mr. Hamilton voted no. Mr.
Hamilton moved to deny the appeal uphold the decision of the Planning
Commission. Motion died for lack of second. Mr. Ferrito moved to continue this
hearing to Wednesday, December 17th at 7:00 p.m. Motion died for lack of
second. No action was taken on the appeal. Pursuant to Government Code

district is a good idea but suggestions and ideas have been received from
residents tonight regarding incentives, fee structure changes, curbs and gutters

was discussed ten years ago. This decision has been delayed and he feels a

existing neighborhoods and commercial area. This Council has taken some
tough stands supporting historic districts and they are willing to work with the
