Dear Historic Preservation Committee:
!1AP. 09 2016
TD\\'N OF LOS GATOS
Pl:AN I 'lN G DIVISION
I am writing to you regarding an investment property that I own at 246 University Ave . in los
Gatos. The property is located on University Ave. between the fire station and O ld Town in the
University I Edelen Historic District. Though it is located in the historic district, the home was
built in 1990.
Unfortunately the original wooden windows that were put into the home have tailed and many Of
the windows have dry rot and termites. For repfacement windows I would prefer to use a
window that is Clad on the outside and wood on the inside, keeping tne original character of the
windows. \Mth Clad windows the home won 't have some of the issues we are dealing with now
such as dry rot and termites on the outside of the windows. Additionafly, there will be no need to
paint the windows themselves and that is also a plus. I befieve that from the street or sid~alk it
will be very difficult to tell that the window is clad and not wood . From the inside of tne home the
window will be wood, keeping the existing character of the home. We are looking at the Marvin
Clad Series keeping with a st~le that is very similar to the ones in the home at this time . It i s my
hope that the Committee will allow us to use a clad window instead of an all-wood window.
Secondly, I would liKe to change the back door and window to French Doors that open out This
change will aiiC'N for a better flow to t11e outdoor patio as wen as take up less interior space.
Sincerely ,

Deep, r ich and last ing are words that desc ri be the difference of Ma rvin ®
color. From subtle earth tones to bold, attention-g rabbing hues , to
brilliant pearlescent tones , our cladding stands out as much fo r its
beauty as it does for its legenda ry durability.

a 20-year wa r ranty.* WARRANTY
AAMA 2605 : THE HIGHEST INDUSTRY STANDARD
Not all AAMA 2605 fin ishes are created equa l. The industry standard
now allows the 2605 rating for roll-form (coil) aluminum. But the re's
a difference. Our substantia ll y stronger, impact res istant extr uded
aluminum ma ter ial -standard on all our cladd ing components -is
about the thickness of a quarter. Ro ll -
form aluminum, used by some window
ma nufa cturers for compon ents, is almost
as thin as a soda can .
• Some colors may not qualify lor the 20·year warranty. Fa deta•ls contact your local deoler. Fa o copy of
the warranty, see MorvinWindows.corn.
