Exhibit 6 - Consulting Architect’s ReportSeptember 17, 2024 Mr. Suray NathanCommunity Development DepartmentTown of Los Gatos110 E. Main StreetLos Gatos, CA 95031 RE: 16511 Cypress Way Dear Suray: 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 a hillside neighborhood with heavy mature landscaping and large lots and homes. Photos of the site and its surrounding neighborhood are shown on the following page. EXHIBIT 6 16511 Cypress Way Design Review Comments September 17, 2024 Page 2 House below this site THE SITE CONTEXT View from below up to site THE SITE CONTEXT 16511 Cypress Way Design Review Comments September 17, 2024 Page 3 PROPOSED PROJECT Proposed site plan Proposed Floor Plan Proposed Front Elevation Existing garage and breezeway Proposed Cross Section at dormers Proposed Side Elevation Proposed Longitudinal Section 16511 Cypress Way Design Review Comments September 17, 2024 Page 4 ISSUES AND RECOMMENDATIONS The proposed project is a replacement of an existing garage and breezeway. It is modest in size and design. It proposes roof dormer windows which are characteristics of carriage house but perfectly acceptable as windows bringing natural light into the garage interior. The area is well shielded by landscaping from views of any adjacent neighbors. I have no recommendations for changes. Suray, please let me know if you have any questions or if there are any issues that I did not address. Sincerely, CANNON DESIGN GROUP Larry L. Cannon
