Location and Surrounding Neighborhood The subject property is 13,209 square feet, located on the westside of National Avenue approximately 152 feet south of Blackwell Drive (Exhibit 1). The property is a vacant rear flag lot, located behind a property with an existing one-story single-family residence. Single-family residential development surrounds the property with office and multi-family development located across the street on National Avenue, east of the subject site. Page 8 PAGE 3 OF 11 SUBJECT: 15411 National Avenue/S-23-033 DATE: November 8, 2024 B. Project Summary The applicant proposes construction of a two-story residence and site improvements requiring a Grading Permit (Exhibit 4). C. Zoning Compliance A single-family residence is permitted in the R-1:8 zone. The proposed residence is in compliance with the maximum allowable floor area, building height, setbacks, lot coverage, and on-site parking requirements for the property. DISCUSSION: A. Architecture and Site Analysis The applicant proposes construction of a new 3,240-square foot, two-story residence with an attached 901-square foot, three car garage. The residence also includes 1,700 square feet of below grade square footage which includes a proposed 500-square foot Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU). The proposed JADU is not part of this application and requires a ministerial building permit. The height of the proposed residence is 30 feet, where a maximum of 30 feet is allowed. The applicant proposes a future detached 900 square foot Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). The proposed ADU is not part of this application and requires a ministerial building permit. A summary of the floor area for the proposed residence is included in the table below. Floor Area Summary Proposed SF Maximum Allowed SF Main Residence Second Floor 1,518 -- First Floor 1,722 -- Total Countable 3,240 3,263 Attached Garage 901 901 Below-Grade Area 1,700 Exempt Below-Grade JADU 500 Located in Below Grade 500 max. Not part of this application. Detached ADU 900 1,073 s.f. max. Not part of this application. The applicant has provided a Scope of Work and a Letter of Justification summarizing the project (Exhibits 4 and 5), photographs of the existing site (Exhibit 6), and Development Plans included as Exhibit 11. Page 9 PAGE 4 OF 11 SUBJECT: 15411 National Avenue/S-23-033 DATE: November 8, 2024 B. Building Design The proposed two-story contemporary style residence has been designed with contrasting colors and materials. Proposed exterior materials include: a concrete tile roof; smooth stucco siding with stone wainscot sills; metal-clad wood windows with wood trim; iron doors; and metal garage doors (Sheet A4.3, Exhibit 11). The upper floor of the residence includes the main bedroom suite, and two-bedroom suites. The second-story bedroom windows on the north elevation include obscure glass for privacy. The lower floor of the residence includes a living room, additional bedroom suite and the attached three-car garage with storage. A covered patio is located off the lower rear elevation from the kitchen and great room space. The Town’s Consulting Architect reviewed the proposed residence in October 2023 and noted that the neighborhood contains a predominance of one-story homes designed in traditional styles. These homes are modest in scale and mass and have simple roof forms (Exhibit 7). The Town’s Consulting Architect stated that the proposed house design appears to emulate a traditional Mediterranean home style, but is designed in much more generic design style with lack of consistency in its design treatment. This would not appear to be consistent with the Town’s Residential Design Guidelines 3.2.1 and 3.2.2. 3.2.1 Select an architectural style with sensitivity to the surrounding neighborhood 3.2.2 Design for architectural integrity Building massing, roof pitches, materials, window types and proportions, design features (e.g., roof dormers), and other architectural features should be consistent with the traditions of the selected style. The Consulting Architect made eight recommendations to simplify the design and bring it into greater compliance with the Town’s Residential Design Guidelines. In response to these recommendations, the applicant made several modifications to the design of the residence, summarizing the changes in a written response (Exhibit 8). The Consulting Architect’s issues and recommendations are provided below, followed by the applicant’s response in italics. Issues and Recommendations: 1. Provide an under-the-eave entry in lieu of the proposed stone tower.  Revised the entry way from large tower to smaller stone entry way. Applicant investigated multiple homes in the surrounding that have been approved by the Town, that have a stone tower as an entry way. See Letter of Justification for image of house (Exhibit 8). 2. Match the lower first floor roofing to the shingles on the main roof.  Lower first floor roofing revised to match the shingles on the main roof. Page 10 PAGE 5 OF 11 SUBJECT: 15411 National Avenue/S-23-033 DATE: November 8, 2024 3. Add a projecting balcony at the second-floor elevation.  Revised front elevation by removing the JADU from the second floor over the garage, reducing the bulky design and redesigned the roofline to accommodate a smoother transition. 4. Extend the main roof form over the bay windows on the side elevations and use stucco in lieu of the proposed wood siding.  Revised the north elevation by relocating the JADU to the basement level. That reduces the massing and blends the JADU entrance with the façade. Extended the main roof form over the bay windows on side elevations and use stucco in lieu of proposed wood siding. Revised the roof line to accommodate the extension of the bay windows at all locations. 5. Provide projecting trim at the second-floor line around all sides of the home.  The applicant investigated multiple homes in the surrounding area that do not have a belly band trim at the break of the first and second floors. See Letter of Justification for image of house (Exhibit 8). 6. Provide a projecting stucco base around all façades.  Revised the base to project from wall with a wainscot profile. 7. Integrate the stair on the right-side elevation into the main building form.  Stairs removed. 8. Provide a visual screen on the deck side nearest the adjacent property line.  Second story rear deck removed to address privacy. The applicant responded to the Consulting Architect’s issues and recommendations through design revisions with the exception meeting the following recommendations:  Recommendation 1 - Provide an under-the-eave entry in lieu of the proposed stone tower.  Recommendation 5 - Provide projecting trim at the second-floor line around all sides of the home. C. Neighborhood Compatibility The subject rear flag lot has a net lot size of 10,728 square feet and the maximum allowable floor area is 3,263 square feet for the residence, and 901 square feet for the garage. The maximum allowable FAR for the residence and any accessory structure is 0.30. The table Page 11 PAGE 6 OF 11 SUBJECT: 15411 National Avenue/S-23-033 DATE: November 8, 2024 below reflects the current conditions of the residences in the immediate neighborhood based on County records.

The eight properties in the immediate neighborhood are developed with one - and two-story single-family residences located in the Single-Family Residential zone. The three properties located across the street from the subject property on National Avenue and are zoned Office and Multi-Family residential. These properties are not included in the immediate neighborhood comparison as they are not zoned single-family residential and are different uses, office and multi-family. The property sizes within the immediate neighborhood range from 7,439 square feet to 20,727 square feet. Based on Town and County records, the residences in the immediate neighborhood range in size from 1,056 square feet to 2,729 square feet. The FAR of the residences in the immediate neighborhood range from 0.07 to 0.37. The applicant is proposing a 3,240-square foot residence and a FAR of 0.30 on a 10,729-square foot parcel. The proposed project has the second largest FAR in the immediate neighborhood. The proposed project would result in the largest residence in terms of square footage, by 511 square feet, and the largest garage in terms of square footage, by 124 square feet , in the immediate neighborhood. Page 12 PAGE 7 OF 11 SUBJECT: 15411 National Avenue/S-23-033 DATE: November 8, 2024 The applicant has provided justification for proposing the largest residence and largest garage, in terms of square footage, in the immediate neighborhood (Exhibit 5). The applicant notes that the immediate neighborhood isn’t uniform in terms of b uilding age, style, or size. The presence of both older and newer structures with varying FARs can make it challenging to establish a benchmark for comparison structures. There is a two-story residence the immediate neighborhood, built in 2017, that exceeds the maximum allowable FAR for the site. The applicant also describes that the immediate neighborhood includes a large hospital building at 15400 National Avenue. The justification includes that the use s on National Avenue are commercial, including multiple multi-story buildings, adding another layer of complexity to the neighborhood’s composition and that the commercial nature of the area might further impact the comparison of FARs, especially when assessing residential properties. The applicant’s justification states that the unique configuration of the rear flag lot presents distinctive challenges and opportunities in adhering to zoning regulations while ensuring the proposed structure harmonizes with the immediate neighborhood. The applicant des cribes that the proposed design does not exceed the stipulated FAR and it remains in reasonable limits and is the result of conscientious planning to accommodate the needs of the multi - generational household without compromising the neighborhood’s integrit y. The applicant states that the design integrates architectural elements that contribute positively to the visual appeal and uniqueness of the area, aligning with the overarching aim of the Residential Design Gudelines. D. Neighbor Outreach The property owners have been in communication with the surrounding neighbors regarding the proposed project. A summary of their outreach efforts is included as Exhibit 10. Neighbors have provided public comment and raised concerns regarding the proposed two-story residence (Exhibit 12). Based on the applicant’s neighborhood outreach and the public comments received by staff three main issues have been raised: 1. Neighborhood Compatibility – Height, bulk, and mass. 2. Privacy – Window placement, and balcony placement. 3. Landscaping – Location, height and maintenance of proposed trees. The following sections discuss each topic. E. Neighborhood Compatibility Public comments include concerns regarding neighborhood compatibility with regards to height, bulk, and mass (Exhibit 12). The subject property is a rear flag lot. Three properties Page 13 PAGE 8 OF 11 SUBJECT: 15411 National Avenue/S-23-033 DATE: November 8, 2024 located on Blackwell Drive, north of the subject flag lot, have rear yards that face the side of the proposed property and proposed residence. Orientation of Subject Flag Lot The applicant has modified the second-floor massing on the northern elevation to reduce the bulk and mass of the building that faces the rear properties along Blackwell Drive. The applicant has removed the second-story rear balcony to further reduce massing and address privacy concerns. F. Privacy Public comments include concerns regarding privacy, including window placement, and balcony placement (Exhibit 12). To address privacy concerns the applicant has incorporated the following into the proposed design (Exhibit 10):  Removal of second-story rear balcony;  Use of obscure/frosted glass on the two-story bedroom windows located on north elevation facing the Blackwell Drive rear yards;  Planting of evergreen trees to provide screening along the northern fence line;  Retention and trimming of the existing large Oak tree at rear corner of the lot; and  Proposed side yard setback provides between 80 to 120 feet of distance between the proposed two-story windows on the subject property and the existing two-story elevation windows at the rear of the Blackwell Avenue residences. Exhibit 3 includes Condition of Approval #11, requiring the two second floor bedroom windows located on the northern elevation of the residence have frosted or obscure glass to provide privacy between the properties. G. Landscaping Public comments include concerns regarding proposed landscaping, including location of screening trees and species (Exhibit 12). To address privacy concerns the applicant has proposed planting five screening trees along the Blackwell Drive fence line (Sheet A0.12, Page 14 PAGE 9 OF 11 SUBJECT: 15411 National Avenue/S-23-033 DATE: November 8, 2024 Exhibit 11). The proposed tree species is Leyland Cypress. Leyland Cypress trees are fast growing, upright in growth, and evergreen. Mature height can reach 50 to 60 feet tall with a mature spread of 15 to 20 feet. Staff received two public comments expressing the following concerns about the proposed privacy trees to be planted along the Blackwell Drive fence:  Drainage of rainwater onto the adjacent property;  Ongoing maintenance of the trees;  Tree height will not adequately screen the view from the second story; and  Future detached ADU construction may interfere with the proposed privacy trees. Exhibit 3 includes Condition of Approval #10, requiring that prior to obtaining a building final the property owner must plant five 24-gallon Leyland Cypress trees along the northern fence line to address privacy concerns. Privacy trees must be maintained by the property owner. H. Tree Impacts The Town’s Consulting Arborist prepared a report for the site and made recommendations for the project (Exhibit 9). The project site contains six protected trees. Four trees are proposed to be removed due the proposed location of the house and to accommodate the new driveway. Arborist recommendations for tree protection have been included in the Conditions of Approval (Exhibit 9). Tree #67 is located on the front parcel and is not part of this application. I. Grading The project includes site improvements with grading quantities exceeding 50 cubic yards, which requires approval of a Grading Permit. The Town’s Parks and Public Works Engineering staff have included a condition of approval requiring submittal and evaluation of a Grading Permit in parallel with the required Building Permits (Exhibit 3). J. Off-Site Improvements The project includes off-site improvements requiring the applicant to install a new sidewalk, curb, and gutter along frontage of the parcel along National Avenue, tying into the existing condition to the north. In addition, applicant shall pave and/or restore pavement from the centerline to the newly constructed gutter along the National Avenue frontage per Condition of Approval 73, Exhibit 3. K. CEQA Determination Page 15 PAGE 10 OF 11 SUBJECT: 15411 National Avenue/S-23-033 DATE: November 8, 2024 The project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to the adopted Guidelines for the Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act, Section 15303: New Construction. PUBLIC COMMENTS: Story poles and signage were installed on the site and written notice was sent to property owners and tenants located within 300 feet of the subject property. Public comments received by 11:00 A.M., Friday, November 8, 2024, are included as Exhibit 12. CONCLUSION: A. Summary The applicant is requesting approval of an Architecture and Site application for construction of a new two-story single-family residence. The project is consistent with the Zoning and General Plan Land Use designation for the property. The project is in compliance with the objective standards of the Town Code related to allowable floor area, height, setbacks, lot coverage, and on-site parking requirements. The proposed project would result in the largest residence in terms of square footage, by 511 square feet, and the largest garage in terms of square footage, by 124 square feet, in the immediate neighborhood. The project was reviewed by the Town’s Consulting Architect who provided recommendations to address the consistency of the project with the Residential Design Guidelines. The applicant responded to the Consulting Architect’s issues and recommendations through design revisions with the exception meeting two recommendations. Public comment has raised outstanding concerns regarding neighborhood compatib ility, privacy, and landscaping. The applicant has provided a Scope of Work and a Letter of Justification for the proposed two-story residence, speaking to the design’s compatibly with the immediate and surrounding neighborhood (Exhibits 4 and 5). B. Recommendation Based on the analysis above, staff recommends denial of the Architecture and Site application based on concerns related to size, neighborhood compatibility, and consistency with the Residential Design Guidelines, as discussed in this report .

Subject: Justification for Project Adherence to Zoning Regulations and Residential Design Guidelines I am writing to provide a comprehensive justification for the design aspects of 15411 National Ave. as it pertains to the zoning regulations and residential design guidelines of our neighborhood. The proposed structure has been meticulously designed to comply with the prescribed Floor Area Ratio formula, that is, as established by Los Gatos Residential Design Guidelines, on sheet 12. The structure is designed to meet the allowable formula for building size in conjunction with the design guidelines. We are pleased to report that our design is under the allowable limit by 23 sq. ft. FAR calculation of .304 was derived from neighboring houses, predominantly over 20 years old, with some even older than 50 years and having diverse styles. However, there are a few outliers in the neighborhood, notably a 2-story building constructed in 2017 (15461 National Avenue) with an FAR of .37, which exceeds the city's FAR limit of .35. Additionally, there's a large hospital building (Mission Oaks Medical Plaza, 15400 National Ave) nearby that also contributes significantly to the area. Considering the context you've provided, it appears that the neighborhood isn't uniform in terms of building age, style, or size. The presence of both older and newer structures with varying FARs can make it challenging to establish a standard or benchmark for comparison. Furthermore, the use of National Avenue for commercial purposes, hosting multiple multi-story buildings, adds another layer of complexity to the neighborhood's composition. The commercial nature of this area might further impact the comparison of FARs, especially when assessing residential properties. a. Justification for Largest House in the Immediate Neighborhood: We understand the significance of conforming to the Residential Design Guidelines while addressing the project's unique requirements. The lot is on the rear side of the property that was divided as a flag lot. The following points elucidate the justification for the size of the house: The unique positioning of our lot, situated on the rear side and designated as a flag lot, necessitates considerations in conforming to the F.A.R. requirement in comparison to neighboring properties. Our adherence to the Residential Design Guidelines remains paramount, and the following elucidates the justification for the size of the proposed house: EXHIBIT 5 Page 41 Compliance with F.A.R.: While the design marginally doesn’t exceed the stipulated F.A.R. it remains within reasonable limits and is a result of conscientious planning to accommodate the needs of our multi-generational household without compromising the neighborhood's integrity. Flag Lot Dynamics: The unique configuration of our flag lot presents distinctive challenges and opportunities in adhering to zoning regulations while ensuring that the proposed structure harmonizes with the immediate surroundings. Residential Design Guidelines: Our design integrates architectural elements that contribute positively to the visual appeal and uniqueness of the area, aligning with the overarching aim of the Residential Design Guidelines. Family Needs: The expanded size of the house is necessitated by the specific requirements of our family structure, including multi-generational living arrangements that demand additional space for comfort and functionality. Architectural Design: The design incorporates innovative architectural elements that enrich the character of the neighborhood, aligning with the guidelines while contributing positively to the visual appeal and uniqueness of the area. Privacy: To ensure privacy between adjacent properties, the design incorporates several elements: 1. Fencing: Installing high-quality fences or walls to create a physical barrier. 2. Landscaping: Using trees, shrubs, and hedges to create natural screens. 3. Window: Will use opaque glass for the second-floor windows by incorporate first two divider panels. 4. Setbacks: Ensuring sufficient distance between structures and property lines. These elements collectively enhance privacy while maintaining the aesthetic harmony of the neighborhood. b. Justification for Largest Garage in the Immediate Neighborhood: The design for 15411 National Ave. includes a larger garage, compliant with city regulations allowing for a maximum of 901 sq. ft., as specified on the cover sheet. The reasons supporting this decision are as follows: Functional Necessity: The larger garage is essential to accommodate multiple vehicles, including recreational and utility vehicles, aligning with the needs of our household, and ensuring adequate storage space. Aesthetic Integration: The design integrates the garage seamlessly into the overall architectural concept, maintaining aesthetic harmony with the house and neighborhood. Sustainability Measures: The larger garage will include eco-friendly features such as battery solar panels and other systems, contributing to the neighborhood's sustainability goals and aligning with green initiatives. Page 42 Safety and Security: Enhanced security measures within the larger garage will ensure the safety of stored items and vehicles, thereby contributing to the overall safety of the neighborhood. We recognize the significance of conforming to zoning regulations and residential design guidelines while addressing the specific attributes of our property. Our aim remains to create a residence that not only meets our family's needs but also contributes positively to the character and aesthetics of the neighborhood. Should you require further clarification or additional information regarding our design approach and its adherence to regulations, we would be more than willing to provide it. Sincerely, Jose Rama Page 43 We have collaborated closely with our planning team to address each critical requirement outlined in the town’s guidelines. This partnership has enabled us to design a project that fully meets the town's standards, from lot coverage and building height to setback and landscaping specifications. Given the unique challenges of the flag lot configuration, we have carefully crafted a design that addresses access, privacy, and spatial constraints, ensuring full compliance with town code guidelines. Our approach balances functionality and aesthetic appeal, enhancing both the character and usability of the space, and contributing positively to the community. Through detailed planning and a commitment to quality, our design integrates seamlessly with the surrounding environment and meets all technical requirements. Our design considers the following key areas to meet town standards: 1.Access and Driveway Requirements •We’ve incorporated a driveway that meets the town’s width and length specifications, ensuring safe and convenient access to the main portion of the lot while minimizing impact on neighboring properties. 2.Setback and Privacy Considerations •Despite the limited lot shape, we’ve maintained all required setbacks, which helps to maximize privacy for both this lot and adjacent properties. The positioning of windows and landscaping further enhances privacy while adhering to the code. •We have met all side, front, and rear setback requirements, ensuring that the building has the proper spacing from property lines and neighboring structures. This compliance fosters adequate spacing, privacy, and safety. 3.Building Orientation and Lot Coverage •The building orientation has been carefully planned to optimize light and airflow while staying within the maximum allowable lot coverage. This layout provides an efficient use of space while maintaining open areas as required. 4.Height and Massing Compliance •The design meets the town’s height restriction, ensuring the building is in harmony with the scale of surrounding properties and does not overpower the narrow lot. •The building height does not exceed 30 feet from grade, adhering to the town’s height restriction. This maintains compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood structures and prevents visual obstruction. 5.Landscape, Buffer Zones and Open Spcae •Landscaping and buffer zones have been integrated to enhance aesthetics and maintain neighborhood character, meeting the town’s design guidelines and environmental considerations. •Landscaped areas and open spaces, creating a balance between natural and built environments that enhances the visual appeal and ecological function of the site. 6.Lot Coverage •Our design respects the town's maximum lot coverage limit, ensuring the total built area remains well within the allowed percentage, which maintains the balance of built and open space as per the town’s standards. 7.Floor Area Ratio (FAR) •The design is under the allowable FAR by 100 square feet, following the density formula prescribed by the town. This compliance ensures that our building mass is appropriate for the area and aligns with density limitations. 8.Architectural Design Guidelines •The exterior design aligns with the town’s architectural guidelines, incorporating approved materials, color schemes, facade treatments, and window configurations. Our design choices support the town’s aesthetic goals and enhance neighborhood cohesion. 9.Stormwater Management •Stormwater systems are designed according to town specifications, including provisions for adequate drainage to prevent runoff and manage water flow effectively on-site. 10.Energy and Sustainability Standards •The building is designed to meet or exceed the town’s energy efficiency requirements, incorporating sustainable materials and systems to reduce environmental impact and support town sustainability goals. 11.Light Restrictions Page 44 •We have included measures to meet town standards for lighting control, ensuring minimal impact on surrounding properties and a comfortable environment for residents By thoughtfully addressing these elements, our design effectively overcomes the challenges of the flag lot and ensures compliance with town codes and guidelines.

Main Street Los Gatos, CA 95031 RE: 15411 National Avenue Dear Erin: I reviewed the drawings and evaluated the neighborhood context. My comments and recommendations on the design are as follows: NEIGHBORHOOD CONTEXT The site is located in an mixed use neighborhood with mostly one story traditional homes on the west side of National Avenue and taller office structures and parking lots on the east side. Photos of the site and its sur- rounding neighborhood are shown on the following page. EXHIBIT 7Page 49 15411 National Avenue Design Review Comments October 13, 2023 Page 2 Office building across National AvenueTHE SITE House immediately to the left House immediately to the right Nearby houseNearby two story housePage 50 15411 National Avenue Design Review Comments October 13, 2023 Page 3 PROPOSED PROJECT Proposed Front Elevation Proposed Rear Elevation Proposed Right Side Elevation Proposed Left Side Elevation Page 51 15411 National Avenue Design Review Comments October 13, 2023 Page 4 ISSUES AND CONCERNS The immediate neighborhood contains a predominance of one story homes designed in traditional styles. These homes are modest in scale and mass and have simple roof forms. The proposed house appears to emu- late a traditional Mediterranean home style but is designed in a much more generic design style with a lack of consistency in its design treatment. This would appear to not be consistent with the Town’s Residential Design Guidelines 3.2.1 and 3.2.2. 3.2.1 Select an architectural style with sensitivity to the surrounding neighborhood 3.2.2 Design for architectural integrity • Building massing, roof pitches, materials, window types and proportions, design features (e.g., roof dormers), and other architectural features should be consistent with the traditions of the selected style Some specific issues include the following: 1. The tall home entry is not the norm of the immediate neighborhood and would not be consistent with Residential Design Guideline 3.6.3. 3.6.3 Design entries with sensitivity to the surrounding neighborhood • Avoid large and formal entries unless that is the norm for nearby houses. It is often best to start the design consideration with an entry type (e.g., projecting or under eave porch) that is similar to nearby homes. 2. The proposed metal roofing would not be consistent with the proposed architectural style and Residential Design Guideline 3.6.3. 3. The faux balcony detail on the front facade is weak for a home of this style and mass. Page 52 15411 National Avenue Design Review Comments October 13, 2023 Page 5 3. The forms and wood siding on the second story bay windows on the side elevations would not be consis- tent with the architectural style 3.5.4 Design dormers with attention to the architectural style and the neighborhood 4. The two story wall on the left side facade lacks articulation and would not be consistent with Residential Design Guidelines 3.3.3. 3.3.3 Provide visual relief for two story walls Some techniques include: • Belly bands (see photo below left) • Pop outs and bay windows • Material and color changes • Chimneys • Wide overhangs with projecting brackets • Juliet balconies • Window boxes and pot shelves • Landscaped trellises and lattices 5. The failure to carry the building base around on all four facades would not be consistent with Residential Design Guidelines 3.2.2. 3.2.2 Design for architectural integrity • Carry wall materials, window types and architectural details around all sides of the house. Avoid side and rear elevations that are markedly different from the front elevation. Page 53 15411 National Avenue Design Review Comments October 13, 2023 Page 6 6. The stair entry to the second floor on the right side elevation is very much out of character with the pro- posed architectural style and size, and it is poorly integrated into the overall design. 7. The large second floor deck probably does not pose a privacy intrusion impact on nearby properties at present, but could in the future if the large adjacent property were to be devel- oped in a similar manner with a home at the rear of the property. Page 54 15411 National Avenue Design Review Comments October 13, 2023 Page 7 RECOMMENDATIONS The following recommendations are intended to simplify the design and bring it into a greater compliance with the Town’s Residential Design Guidelines. 1. Provide an under-the-eave entry in lieu of the proposed stone tower. 2. Match the lower first floor roofing to the shingles on the main roof. 3. Add a projecting balcony at the second floor on the front elevation. 4. Extend the main roof form over the bay windows on the side elevations and use stucco in lieu of the proposed wood siding. 5. Provide projecting trim at the second floor line around all sides of the home. 6. Provide a projecting stucco base around on all facades. 7. Integrate the stair on the right side elevation into the main building form. Page 55 15411 National Avenue Design Review Comments October 13, 2023 Page 8 8. Provide a visual screen on the deck side nearest the adjacent property line - some photo examples are shown below.

The trees were appraised using the “Cost Approach” and more specifically the “Trunk Formula Technique” (Appendix B). “Trunk Formula Technique” is calculated as follows: Basic Tree Cost = (Unit tree cost x Appraised trunk area), Appraised Value = (Basic tree cost X functional Limitations (percentage) X Condition (percentage) X External Limitations (percentage)). The trunk formula valuations are based on four tree factors; size (trunk cross sectional area), condition, functional limitations, and external limitations. There are two steps to determine the overall value. The first step is to determine the “Basic Tree Cost” based on size and unit tree cost. Unit tree cost is calculated by dividing the nursery wholesale cost of a 24 inch box specimen and its replacement size (cost per square inch trunk caliper) which is determined by the Species Classification and Group Assignment, 2004 Western Chapter Regional Supplement. The cost of the 24 inch box wholesale specimen was determined through personal communications with BrightView and Normans nurseries in Farmington and Central Wholesale in San Jose for an average of $214.00. The second part is to depreciate the tree’s Basic Cost through an assessment of condition, functional limitations, and external limitations. The condition assessment guidelines and percentages are defined in the “Condition Rating” section of this report. Functional limitations are based on factors associated with the tree’s interaction to its planting site that would affect condition, limit development, or reduce the utility in the future and include genetics, placement, and site conditions for the individual tree. External limitations are outside the property, out of control of the owner and also affect condition, limit development, or reduce the utility in the future (i.e power lines, municipal restrictions, drought adaptations, or species susceptibility to pests). There were twelve trees (12) protected trees appraised for a rounded depreciated value of $120,330.00. Appraisal worksheets are available upon request.

The assessment considered all three criteria for a combined condition rating. •100% - Exceptional = Good health and structure with significant size, location or quality. •61-80% - Good = Normal vigor, well-developed structure, function and aesthetics not compromised with good longevity for the site. •41-60 % - Fair = Reduced vigor, damage, dieback, or pest problems, at least one significant structural problem or multiple moderate defects requiring treatment. Major asymmetry or deviation from the species normal habit, function and aesthetics compromised. •21-40% - Poor = Unhealthy and declining appearance with poor vigor, abnormal foliar color, size or density with potential irreversible decline. One serious structural defect or multiple significant defects that cannot be corrected and failure may occur at any time. Significant asymmetry and compromised aesthetics and intended use. •6-20% - Very Poor = Poor vigor and dying with little foliage in irreversible decline. Severe defects with the likelihood of failure being probable or imminent. Aesthetically poor with little or no function in the landscape. •0-5% - Dead/Unstable = Dead or imminently ready to fail. Five trees are in good condition, two fair, two poor, and three very poor including mulberries #61, #62, and pepper #71 (Chart 2). Monarch Consulting Arborists LLC - P.O Box 1010, Felton, CA 95018 831.331.8982 - rick@monarcharborist.com Page of 5 29 Quantity Page 66 15411 National Avenue Tree Inventory, Assessment and Protection Report October 22, 2023 Expected Impact Level Impact level defines how a tree may be affected by construction activity and proximity to the tree, and is described as low, moderate, or high. The following scale defines the impact rating: •Low = The construction activity will have little influence on the tree. •Moderate = The construction may cause future health or structural problems, and steps must be taken to protect the tree to reduce future problems. •High = Tree structure and health will be compromised and removal is recommended, or other actions must be taken for the tree to remain. The tree is located in the building envelope. Based on the plans and the tree conditions mulberries #61 and #62, and pepper #71 should be removed and replaced regardless. The most significant tree indicated for removal is deodar cedar #67. Deodar cedar #67 is proposed for removal to accommodate improvements along the road frontage including the extension of the footpath and a joint trench. In this instance it would appear public works is requiring the removal of this tree somewhat unrelated to the proposed plan by the applicant. There are at least two coast live oaks along the south side of the property which could be on the adjacent site or on the property line. However, I could not assess these trees because the only access is through the adjacent property, which I do not have permission to enter. It would appear based on the existing building locations and infrastructure the proposed plan could go forward without further damaging these trees because the new structures are actually farther away. Coast live oak #72 is large and near the proposed ADU. The plans do not actually provide enough detail to determine what the impacts could be, including exact location and foundation design. Four trees will be highly impacted, one moderate, and seven not affected.

The applicant will be required to replace four protected trees. Alternatively it may be possible to create an approved landscape plan or provide an in-lieu payment. The landscape plan does not indicate any replacement trees. 1To measure an asymmetrical canopy of a tree, the widest measurement shall be used to determine canopy size. 2Often, it is not possible to replace a single large, older tree with an equivalent tree(s). In this case, the tree may be replaced with a combination of both the Tree Canopy Replacement Standard and in-lieu payment in an amount set forth by Town Council resolution paid to the Town Tree Replacement Fund. 3Single Family Residential Replacement Option is available for developed single family residential lots under 10,000 square feet that are not subject to the Town’s Hillside Development Standards and Guidelines. All 15-gallon trees must be planted on-site. Any in-lieu fees for single family residential shall be based on 24” box tree rates as adopted by Town Council. 4Replacement Trees shall be approved by the Town Arborist and shall be of a species suited to the available planting location, proximity to structures, overhead clearances, soil type, compatibility with surrounding canopy and other relevant factors. Replacement with native species shall be strongly encouraged. Replacement requirements in the Hillsides shall comply with the Hillside Development Standards and Guidelines Appendix A and Section 29.10.0987 Special Provisions—Hillsides.

The tree protection zone (TPZ) is the defined area in which certain activities are prohibited to minimize potential injury to the tree and should encompass the critical root zone. There are two tree protection zones determined which include the “calculated” and “specified” tree protection zones. The “calculated” tree protection zone is determined by a multiplication factor based on species tolerance, tree age/vigor/health, and trunk diameter (Table 3). The “specified” tree protection zone is adjusted in size and shape to accommodate the existing infrastructure, planned construction, and specific site constraints. This “specified” zone includes tree canopy conformation, visible root orientation, size, condition, maturity, and species tolerances (Gilpin, R, Hauer, R, Matheny, N, and Smiley, E.T. 2023). Tree protection will consist primarily of protection around the coast live oak #72 because there is already fence around deodar cedar #68. Once plans indicated building and infrastructure proximities more clearly a better specified tree protection plan can be developed.

APN 424-12-140. Categorically exempt pursuant to CEQA guidelines section 15303: new construction. The inventory contains twelve (12) trees comprised of seven (7) different species. There is one Large Protected coast live oak #72, none are Exempt fruit trees or species listed in 29.10.0970 subsection (2) and there are no Street Trees. There are potentially two more coast live oaks that were inaccessible to the south of the site. Five trees are in good condition, two fair, two poor, and three very poor including mulberries #61, #62, and pepper #71. Based on the plans and the tree conditions mulberries #61 and #62, and pepper #71 should be removed and replaced regardless. The most significant tree indicated for removal is deodar cedar #67. Deodar cedar #67 is proposed for removal to accommodate improvements along the road frontage including the extension of the footpath and a joint trench.

Four trees will be highly impacted, one moderate, and seven not affected. The applicant will be required to replace four protected trees. There were twelve trees (12) protected trees appraised for a rounded depreciated value of $120,330.00.

Make sure the plans and tree removals are consistent between the plan sets. Provide access to trees not assessed through the property on the south side. 2.Re-review plans once greater detail is provided. Consider realigning or reconfiguring the walkway and joint trench to preserve deodar cedar #67. 3.Place 4-6 inches of mulch inside the tree protection zone. Install temporary irrigation or soaker hoses in the TPZ. Monitor watering times or amounts to ensure adequate soil saturation. (A 5/8” soaker hose requires about 200 minutes to deliver one inch of water to a garden. This number is affected by the length of the hose and the overall rate of flow from the faucet. A good rule of thumb is to expect about ½ GPM as a standard faucet flow rate.). Infrequent deeper watering is preferred. 4.All tree maintenance and care shall be performed by a qualified arborist with a C-61/D-49 California Contractors License. Tree maintenance and care shall be specified in writing according to American National Standard for Tree Care Operations: Tree, Shrub and Other Woody Plant Management: Standard Practices parts 1 through 10 and adhere to ANSI Z133.1 safety standards and local regulations. All maintenance is to be performed according to ISA Best Management Practices. 5.Refer to Appendix D for general tree protection guidelines including recommendations for arborist assistance while working under trees, trenching, or excavation within a trees drip line or designated TPZ/CRZ. 6.Place all the tree protection fence locations and guidelines on the plans including the grading, drainage, and utility plans. Create a separate plan sheet that includes all three protection measures labeled “T-1 Tree Protection Plan.” 7.Provide a copy of this report to all contractors and project managers, including the architect, civil engineer, and landscape designer or architect. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure all parties are familiar with this document. Arrange a pre-construction meeting with the project arborist or landscape architect to verify tree protection is in place, with the correct materials, and at the proper distances.

It is often plotted on a plan as a circle or other arbitrary shape and can be used as a guide for establishing the specified TPZ. critical root zone: a conceptual soil area containing the minimal amount of all the essential parts of the root zone needed to sustain tree health and structural integrity. There are no universally accepted methods to calculate the CRZ. basic Tree Cost: The cost of replacement for a perfect specimen of a particular species and cross sectional area prior to location and condition depreciation. cost Approach: An indication of value by adding the land value to the depreciated value of improvements. defect: An imperfection, weakness, or lack of something necessary. In trees defects are injuries, growth patterns, decay, or other conditions that reduce the tree’s structural strength. diameter at breast height (DBH): Measures at 1.4 meters (4.5 feet) above ground in the United States, Australia (arboriculture), New Zealand, and when using the Guide for Plant Appraisal, 9th edition; at 1.3 meters (4.3 feet) above ground in Australia (forestry), Canada, the European Union, and in UK forestry; and at 1.5 meters (5 feet) above ground in UK arboriculture. drip Line: Imaginary line defined by the branch spread or a single plant or group of plants. The outer extent of the tree crown. form: Describes a plant’s habit, shape or silhouette defined by its genetics, environment, or management. health: Assessment is based on the overall appearance of the tree, its leaf and twig growth, and the presence and severity of insects or disease mechanical damage: Physical damage caused by outside forces such as cutting, chopping or any mechanized device that may strike the tree trunk, roots or branches.

They are encased in jute, nylon, or other photo degradable materials, and have an average weight of 35 pounds. structure: Evaluation focused on the crown, trunk, trunk flare, above ground roots and the site conditions contributing to conditions and/or defects that may contribute to failure. Tree Protection Zone (TPZ): Defined area within which certain activities are prohibited or restricted to prevent or minimize potential injury to designated trees, especially during construction or development. Tree Risk Assessment: Process of evaluating what unexpected things could happen, how likely it is, and what the likely outcomes are. In tree management, the systematic process to determine the level of risk posed by a tree, tree part, or group of trees. trunk: Stem of a tree. Trunk Formula Technique: Method to appraise the monetary value of trees considered too large to be replaced with nursery or field grown stock. Based on developing a representative unit cost for replacement with the same or comparable species of the same size and in the same place, subject to depreciation for various factors. Contrast with replacement cost method. volunteer: A tree, not planted by human hands, that begins to grow on residential or commercial property. Unlike trees that are b drought in and installed on property, volunteer trees usually spring up on their own from seeds placed onto the ground by natural causes or accidental transport by people. Normally, volunteer trees are considered weeds and removed, but many desirable and attractive specimens have gone on to become permanent residents on many public and private grounds.

When any roots are cut or torn during construction, it is critical that you sharply cut all the ends of any exposed roots immediately. Failure to do so will leave crushed and torn roots. This leads to decay and inhibits growth of new roots. 2. Pile soil on the side of the trench opposite the tree. If this is not possible, place the soil on a plastic tarp, plywood or a thick bed of mulch. 3. Do not compact the backfill on the trench more than its original firmness. 4. Water the backfill to allow the roots to begin healing. Trenching near a tree can kill as much as 40%-50% of the tree’s roots. If the tree you are working around is in a confined space and your equipment will be coming close, it is important for you to protect the trunk. Wrap the tree trunk in old tires or place 2” x 4” studs around the tree and rope or band them together.

The site should be evaluated by the project arborist or a qualified ISA Certified Arborist after construction is complete, and any necessary remedial work that needs to be performed should be noted. Root Pruning Roots greater than two inches in diameter shall not be cut. When roots over two inches in diameter are encountered and are authorized to be cut or removed, they should be pruned by hand with loppers, handsaw, reciprocating saw, or chain saw rather than left crushed or torn. Roots should be cut beyond sinker roots or outside root branch junctions and be supervised by the project arborist. When completed, exposed roots should be kept moist with burlap or backfilled within one hour. Boring or Tunneling Boring machines should be set up outside the drip line or established Tree Protection Zone. Boring may also be performed by digging a trench on both sides of the tree until roots one inch in diameter are encountered and then hand dug or excavated with an Air Spade® or similar air or water excavation tool. Bore holes should be adjacent to the trunk and never go directly under the main stem to avoid oblique (heart) roots. Bore holes should be a minimum of three feet deep. Tree Pruning and Removal Operations All tree pruning or removals should be performed by a qualified arborist with a C-61/D-49 California Contractors License. Treatment, including pruning, shall be specified in writing according to the most recent ANSI A-300A Standards and Limitations and performed according to ISA Best Management Practices while adhering to ANSI Z133.1 safety standards. Trees that need to be removed or pruned should be identified in the pre-construction walk through.

I appreciate your efforts to address the issue by adding a permanent privacy screen to the balcony and planting Leyland Cypress Trees for additional privacy. However, after carefully reviewing the proposed solutions and the attached renderings, I still have some reservations about the effectiveness of these measures in ensuring our privacy. Upon closer inspection, it seems that the permanent privacy screen may not provide adequate coverage, as there are visible gaps that could allow for sightlines into my master bedroom and bathroom. Additionally, the placement of the privacy trees may not fully block the view from your balcony and windows, especially during certain times of the year when foliage is sparse. Page 97 Considering these concerns, I would like to explore alternative options that could better address our privacy needs. Here are a few suggestions: 1. Window Adjustment: Would it be possible to consider removing or relocating the windows that directly overlook my master bedroom and bathroom? Installing the windows on a different side of the house could help mitigate privacy issues while still allowing for natural light and ventilation. 2. Skylights: Instead of traditional windows, could we explore the possibility of installing skylights for ventilation in the affected areas? Skylights would allow for ample natural light without compromising privacy, as they are typically positioned high on the ceiling and do not provide direct sightlines into neighboring properties. 3. Improved Privacy Screen: If a permanent privacy screen is deemed necessary, could we explore options for a screen that offers better coverage and privacy? Perhaps a solid black filter without any holes would be more effective in blocking visibility from your balcony while still allowing for airflow. I understand that making changes to the construction plans may require additional time and resources, but I believe that finding a mutually satisfactory solution is important for maintaining positive relationships within our neighborhood. I am open to further discussion and collaboration to find the best possible solution that respects the rights and privacy of both parties. Please let me know your thoughts on the proposed alternatives, and if there are any other ideas you would like to explore. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Concerned about the privacy due to a big two storied building. As our 3 bedrooms (including the Master Bedroom) are open to our backyard and it’s a concern for the privacy of my family due this big construction. We are mitigating the privacy concern by planting 3-4 Leyland trees which are commonly used to create privacy, this would cover all of the view from the 2 windows you see in the plan- These are evergreen trees with minimal maintenance, in addition to the Leyland trees we are going put privacy layer to cover line of sight of the window please see the attached (please note this refence only not exact). I would also bring to your attention that the proposed structure of 15411 is similar to your two storied structure, but due to the placement of site location the house might look big. 2. This big two floored building is going to obstruct the view of the mountains and it's a claustrophobic for my family. All most all the mountain viewing is obstructed by the tree in your backyard or trees on my other side of my property and with regards to claustrophobic - your neighboring house which is of same height as yours’s much closer to you (appro.10ft) then 15411 structure (over 80ft in distance from your structure to the purposed structure). 3. After hearing that we are going to have tree screening to obstruct view from their windows or big balcony, we are concerned about the time and maintenance of these trees going forward. Looking at the situation now, we are concerned about the maintenance. As mentioned in my previous email and above Leyland trees are evergreen trees with minimal maintenance, and as we are going to be living on that property, we would be maintaining the Leyland trees. With regards to balcony - 80 % of the view from balcony will be blocked by the huge oak tree we share in the back yard and then for the remaining % we are going to install privacy screen on the balcony mentioned in my previous email. (please see the attached for the balcony screening) 4. As I mentioned, the way the bushes (vine iv) or sheds or barn roof iron sheets are maintained, I see animals (bobcats), snakes on the fence or barn roof and it’s a big concern. Another concern about the flying barn roof iron sheets during the storm and not maintaining them. As we are proposing to build a beautiful house replacing all the sheds there wouldn't be any flying barns roofs - this proposal would improve/enhance the neighborhood and also increase the value of the properties in the immediate neighborhood, with regards to bobcats and snakes - was the animal control called as this is first time I am hearing about it, please let me know immediately when you see any sighting of either bobcats or snakes as we all have kids and pets and need immediate attention, but all of this wouldn't be problem once the purposed plan comes to fruition results. Page 104 5. Due to vine iv bushes in the back, growing on my shed and damaging the roof. Also the fence. My gardener cleaned the vines and also paid for the repair of fence in the past. This shouldn't be a concern - as you and I are working on getting a new fence on a different email, the only request I had made was that we trim the Oak tree we share first. 6. Looked at the latest plans at this link and here is the big balcony that my family is concerned about…This situation gives rise to considerable privacy concerns for my family.

All most all the mountain viewing is obstructed by the tree in your backyard or trees on my other side of my property and with regards to claustrophobic - your neighboring house which is of same height as yours’s much closer to you (appro.10ft) then 15411 structure (over 80ft in distance from your structure to the purposed structure). 3. After hearing that we are going to have tree screening to obstruct view from their windows or big balcony, we are concerned about the time and maintenance of these trees going forward. Looking at the situation now, we are concerned about the maintenance. As mentioned in my previous email and above Leyland trees are evergreen trees with minimal maintenance, and as we are going to be living on that property, we would be maintaining the Leyland trees. With regards to balcony - 80 % of the view from balcony will be blocked by the huge oak tree we share in the back yard and then for the remaining % we are going to install privacy screen on the balcony mentioned in my previous email. (please see the attached for the balcony screening) 4. As I mentioned, the way the bushes (vine iv) or sheds or barn roof iron sheets are maintained, I see animals (bobcats), snakes on the fence or barn roof and it’s a big concern. Another concern about the flying barn roof iron sheets during the storm and not maintaining them. Page 122 As we are proposing to build a beautiful house replacing all the sheds there wouldn't be any flying barns roofs - this proposal would improve/enhance the neighborhood and also increase the value of the properties in the immediate neighborhood, with regards to bobcats and snakes - was the animal control called as this is first time I am hearing about it, please let me know immediately when you see any sighting of either bobcats or snakes as we all have kids and pets and need immediate attention, but all of this wouldn't be problem once the purposed plan comes to fruition results. 5. Due to vine iv bushes in the back, growing on my shed and damaging the roof. Also the fence. My gardener cleaned the vines and also paid for the repair of fence in the past. This shouldn't be a concern - as you and I are working on getting a new fence on a different email, the only request I had made was that we trim the Oak tree we share first. 6. Looked at the latest plans at this link and here is the big balcony that my family is concerned about…This situation gives rise to considerable privacy concerns for my family. Addressed on Comment # 3. Page 123 Page 124 Sent: Monday, November 4, 2024 at 11:02:14 AM PST Subject: 15411 Nationa Ave. - Addressing comments received on 10.29.24 Good Morning Thank you for the comments/concerns sent to the city, which will be addressed below: 1. Privacy: The current design of the second-floor windows, based on the story poles, continues to present a privacy issue. The placement and height of the windows appears to allow direct visibility into my master bedroom, bathroom (particularly the shower area), and backyard. Given the proximity, this remains a significant concern for my family’s privacy. Additionally, the proposed new trees do not adequately shield the second-floor view. I’ve attached a few pictures below from my bathroom to illustrate this issue: Thank you for the picture - which clearly shows that the Oak tree branch obstructs the bedroom window from 15411. The only clear structure visible from your photo is the garage; we have also addressed the privacy concern in the email sent on 07.31.2024 1. Removing the balcony from the plans (please see the revised attached plans) 2. Adding 5 Leyland trees – Know the best trees to create privacy. 3. A privacy layer (blurred windows) covers the window's line of sight (mentioned in the housing development guidelines). 4. The giant oak tree will be the best privacy screen. 5. The distance between windows (yours and proposed) is over 100ft, which should be considered while discussing privacy. I also want to add that you have a neighbor with a two-story building with three windows facing your property, and the distance between the windows is less than 20f 3. Neighborhood Comparisons: We need not replicate any construction style in the neighborhood as it is not a community-based construction; we have used our neighbors on Blackwell Dr as an example to propose the 2-story (one of them is your neighbor). 4. Tree Placement: The image on the architectural drawing may not provide an accurate image of the tree; it just shows the placement of the trees. The proposed privacy trees can easily grow in a 4x4 area. Adequacy of privacy is also addressed in my first point and on my 07.31.2024 email. 3. Basement Impact: The basement/cellar is proposed according to town codes. Please let me know if you have any additional questions or concerns, Best, Ramya Page 125 This Page Intentionally Left Blank Page 126 SHEETOFSHEET TITLECOPYRIGHT: PROJECT NO:CAD DWG FILE:DRAWN BY:CHK'D BY:DESCRIPTIONDATEMARKOWNER ALL DRAWINGS AND WRITTEN MATERIAL APPEARING HEREIN ARE THE ORIGINAL AND UNPUBLISHED WORK OF THE DESIGNER, AND MAY NOT BE COPIED OR USED WITHOUT THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE DESIGNER. email: jer@jerdesigngroup.com408.843.8067 c2023JER DESIGN GROUPY:\Shared\Project's\15411National Ave. LosGatos\DWG'S\240610 - Rev.Ramya Resi.rvtPLANNING 20109242VYANKATESH B. & RAMYAMUDDADA RES.424-12-140AuthorChecker15411 NATIONAL AVE.

I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding the construction project at 15411 National Avenue, Los Gatos. Upon reviewing the architectural plans for the project, I noticed that the placement of windows and balcony on the second floor directly overlooks my master bedroom and master bathroom. As a result, my family's privacy is significantly compromised by this design. Concerns marked in red I have attempted to address this matter directly with the applicants, but unfortunately, I have not received a response to my previous communication. I reached out to them via email on 9th April, 2024 (attached email PDF), outlining my concerns and expressing my willingness to discuss potential adjustments to the design to mitigate the privacy implications for my family. However, I have not received any acknowledgement or response from them. I believe that open communication and mutual consideration are essential in addressing neighborhood concerns and ensuring positive outcomes for all parties involved. Therefore, I am providing this email as part of the public comment for the project file and public hearing, as requested by your office. I am hopeful that this email will prompt the applicant's team to engage in constructive dialogue to find a mutually satisfactory solution that respects the rights and privacy of both parties. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please let me know if you require any further information from my end. Best regards, , Los Gatos – 95032 EXHIBIT 12Page 151 Page 152 Page 153 Page 154 This situation gives rise to considerable privacy concerns for my family. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please let me know if you require any further information from my end.

If it is a plan to keep them, trees need to be move them from a fence, so all dripping area would be inside neighbor’s yard. Also, we would like to see engineering justification for prosed basement. We have concern that it can affect structural integrity of our house foundation.

The 2nd story porch is looking directly into our backyard with the family room and bathroom windows impeding on our privacy. The trees proposed to be planted along the property line to create privacy will take years to mature, and when they do, the drip line will fall onto our property creating lots foliage like the existing oak trees from that property that we have to pay for to trim and constantly clean after. We propose to not build the 2nd story porch at all, or if it must be built, completely cover the West and North West facing sides of the porch. We also propose for the trees to be planted further away from the property line fence so that the drip line is inside the property line of APN 424-12-40.

Concerned about the privacy due to a big two storied building. As our 3 bedrooms (including the Master Bedroom) are open to our backyard and it’s a concern for the privacy of my family due this big construction. 2. This big two floored building is going to obstruct the view of the mountains and it's a claustrophobic for my family. 3. After hearing that we are going to have tree screening to obstruct view from their windows or big balcony, we are concerned about the time and maintenance of these trees going forward. Looking at the situation now, we are concerned about the maintenance. 4. As I mentioned, the way the bushes (vine iv) or sheds or barn roof iron sheets are maintained, I see animals (bobcats), snakes on the fence or barn roof and it’s a big concern. Another concern about the flying barn roof iron sheets during the storm and not maintaining them. 5. Due to vine iv bushes in the back, growing on my shed and damaging the roof. Also the fence. My gardener cleaned the vines and also paid for the repair of fence in the past. 6.

I’m following up regarding my concerns on the construction project at 15411 National Avenue. I appreciate that story poles have been added to help visualize the structure’s impact on the surrounding properties. However, after further assessment, I still have several concerns I’d like to raise: 1. Privacy: The current design of the second-floor windows, based on the story poles, continues to present a privacy issue. The placement and height of the windows appears to allow direct visibility into my master bedroom, bathroom (particularly the shower area), and backyard. Given the proximity, this remains a significant concern for my family’s privacy. Additionally, the proposed new trees do not adequately shield the second-floor view. I’ve attached a few pictures below from my bathroom to illustrate this issue: Page 165 2. FAR Justification: The justification letter for this project refers to a few structures in the area to support the construction of a two-story building with a basement. However, I believe the examples used are not fully comparable. While the letter references Mission Oaks Medical Plaza (15400 National Ave) as an example of nearby multi-story construction, the plaza is a large hospital with a significantly different use case and footprint. The construction project at 15411 National is behind the front lot with no direct relation to the hospital, so quoting it as a basis for building a two-story structure plus a basement doesn ’t align with the property’s context. Page 166 3. Neighborhood Comparisons: A more fitting comparison is with nearby flag lot properties. For example: - 15439 National Avenue (Behind Lot): Constructed as a single-story, respecting the privacy of surrounding properties. - 15461 National Avenue (Lot Facing National Avenue): Constructed as a two-story building, positioned in a more suitable location that aligns with the neighboring two-story medical plaza. This example demonstrates a balanced approach in terms of height and placement for properties in similar configurations. It would be beneficial if the plans for 15411 National Avenue could similarly consider the neighborhood’s layout and aim to maintain harmony in both design and privacy. Page 167 4. Tree Placement: I also noticed that the proposed trees will overlap with the planned Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) location. Since the trees will be situated very close to the property line, I am unsure how effective they will be as a privacy barrier or how they will grow in such limited space. If planted near the fence, I worry that the ADU construction may interfere with the trees' ability to provide meaningful privacy coverage. Page 168 3. Basement Impact: Finally, I understand the project includes a basement. I am concerned about potential effects on my property’s foundation, as the excavation and subsequent construction could impact soil stability and drainage patterns. I hope these additional observations provide helpful context for evaluating the project and its potential impacts. I am more than willing to discuss any of these points further to find an effective solution that protects my family’s privacy and maintains neighborhood harmony. Thank you for considering these concerns, and please let me know if I can provide any further information.
