Applicant: Donna Chivers. Project Planner: Erin Walters. DISCUSSION: On December 18, 2024, the Committee discussed the proposed second-story addition, provided the following feedback, and requested that the applicant return to the Committee at a future date (Attachment 1): • Take into account the roofing materials and low-pitched roof sections; • Consider adding architectural details to the side elevations; • Pay particular attention to the long pitch on the side elevation as it is not harmonious with the rest of the design; • Study the neighborhood carefully, especially the two-story houses in the immediate neighborhood, update this design to be more consistent with the neighborhood; and • Move the mass of the second floor to the back. The applicant submitted revised plans and a letter summarizing their response to the Committee’s direction (Attachment 2).

Located at 310 Tait Avenue. APN 510-14-058. Exempt Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301: Existing Facilities. Request for Review Application PHST-24-026. Property Owner: Santiago Allende. Applicant: Donna Chivers. Project Planner: Erin Walters. RECOMMENDATION: Requesting preliminary review for construction of a new second-story addition and exterior alterations to an existing non-contributing single-family residence located in the Almond Grove Historic District on property zoned R-1D:LHP located at 310 Tait Avenue. PROPERTY DETAILS: 1.Date primary structure was built: 1918 per County Assessor’s Database 2.Town of Los Gatos Historic Status Code: N/A 3.Does property have an LHP Overlay? Yes 4.Is structure in a historic district? Yes, Almond Grove Historic District 5.If yes, is it a contributor? No 6.Findings required? No 7.Considerations required? Yes BACKGROUND: The Santa Clara County’s Accessors Database lists a construction date of 1918 for the residence. According to the Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, the 1908 and 1928 map shows the property ATTACHMENT 1 2 Ͷ ǣ ͵ͳͲȀǦʹͶǦͲʹ͸ ǣͳ͵ǡʹͲʹͶ before it was subdivided and an accessory structure shown approximately in the footprint of the subject residence. The footprint on the July 1944 and 1956 maps shows the house in its current configuration located on a larger property, prior a lot split (Attachment 1). The property is not included 1991 Anne Bloomfield Historic Survey. Town records show a building permit for replacement of windows to match the existing aesthetics and originality of the home and a reroof in 2007 (Attachment 2). The applicant provided a summary of the property research (Attachment 3), as well as photographs of the property (Attachment 4). DISCUSSION: The subject property at 310 Tait Avenue is located on the east side of Tait Avenue, between Bachman Avenue and Almendra Avenue. The applicant is requesting a preliminary review by the Committee to provide feedback on a proposed first floor addition, and a new second-story addition to the existing one-story house. The applicant provided a scope of work (Attachment 5). The project proposes an internal remodel of the house, and a 256-square foot one-story addition to the front and rear of the house. The project also proposes a new 730-square foot second-story addition to the residence (Attachment 6). The existing one-story cottage style house is approximately 12 feet, six inches in height with hip roof. The existing house has a mix of tongue and groove vertical wood siding and horizontal lap wood siding. The gable roof ends have wood scalloped vertical siding. The front elevation has brick wainscoting that matches the brick chimney on the south elevation. The front door is a wood decorative cottage style door. The existing windows are white vinyl with wood trim and wood decorative shutters at the front elevation. The existing roof is asphalt composition shingle. The proposed residence would be 25 feet, one inches in height and would install exterior siding to match the existing siding. The new roof would be composition shingle and introduces two new bay windows at the front elevation. The existing windows would be replaced throughout the home with a variety of window styles and shapes. The existing brick chimney is proposed to be removed. The front elevation would retain the brick wainscoting and introduces a new wood front door with sidelights. The proposed project includes a proposed rear deck with wood railings. The proposed project has not been evaluated to determine if it would fall below the Town’s demolition thresholds for historic residences. 3 Ͷ ǣ ͵ͳͲȀǦʹͶǦͲʹ͸ ǣͳ͵ǡʹͲʹͶ Town’s Residential Design Guidelines The Committee should consider Section 3.9 of the Town’s Residential Design Guidelines, which provides recommendations for construction of additions to existing residences (Attachment 7). Including but not limited to the following recommendations: x The existing built forms, components and materials should be reinforced. Heights and proportions of additions and alterations should be consistent with and continue the original architectural style and design. x Additions should be subordinate, and compatible in scale and proportion to the historically significant portions of the existing structure. x When an addition or remodel requires the use of newly constructed exterior elements, they should be identical in size, dimension, shape, and location as the original, and should utilize the same materials as the existing protected exterior elements. CONCLUSION: The applicant is requesting preliminary review for construction of a new second-story addition and exterior alterations an existing non-contributing single-family residence located at 310 Tait Avenue. A new second-story addition, if not triggering a technical demolition, is processed under a Minor Residential Development application. This application would return to the Committee for a recommendation to be forwarded to the Community Development Director and the application would continue through the Minor Residential Development process. CONSIDERATIONS: A. Considerations Sec. 29.80.290. Standards for review. In evaluating applications, the deciding body shall consider the architectural style, design, arrangement, texture, materials and color, and any other pertinent factors. Applications shall not be granted unless: In historic districts, the proposed work will neither adversely affect the exterior architectural characteristics or other features of the property which is the subject of the application, nor adversely affect its relationship, in terms of harmony and appropriateness, with its surroundings, including neighboring structures, nor adversely affect the character, or the historical, architectural or aesthetic interest or value of the district.

Main St. Los Gatos, Ca 95030 Re: Response to HPC Comments dated 12-19-2024 Dear Los Gatos Historic Preservation Committee, Per your comments, the addition and remodel at 310 Tait Ave. has been thoughtfully redesigned to maintain the look and feel of the original home and minimize the massing of the new upper level. Please see below for details addressing comments: 1.The redesigned roof is a combination of a 4:12 and 6:12 roof pitch which will accommodate asphaltcomp. roofing shingles.2.The existing exterior materials will remain intact (including the brick fireplace) and the new materialswill match in size and type. A wood scallop detail has also been added in the gable ends to carry the original design into the new areas. 3. The long pitch roof has been eliminated4.The proposed building height of 24’ 3”, roof design, and exterior materials is consistent with the 2-storyhouses in the immediate neighborhood and with the original design of the existing home:a.The home at 301 Almendra Dr. features a gable end roofline with shingle siding and sits roughly 25’ in total height above street level b. The home at 256 Bachman Ave. features a gable end roofline and a combination of shingle andhorizontal siding for exterior materials. The building sits roughly 30’ in total height above streetlevel.5. The mass of the second story has been reduced and moved back such that the front wall of the upper level is 15’ from the front property line. Please feel free to contact me at any time with questions.
