Opened Public Comment.
Anita, Applicant Representing Renewal by Anderson,
Owner wants to remove the full divided lites in the windows visible from the public right of
way. The rest of the existing windows will have lites. There are three windows that face the
street. The owner does not want divided lites in these windows. The owner looked at
neighboring houses and saw street-facing windows with no grids. The owner is not present
today because they are out of the country on a business trip.
Committee members asked questions of the applicant.
Anita, Applicant Representing Renewal by Anderson,
They tried to persuade the owner to retain the divided lites, but the owner does not
want them. The owner is not present because they are out of the country on business.
Vice Chair Quieroz
Was any research done by the owner? Are there photos of the original windows?
Anita, Applicant Representing Renewal by Anderson,
The owner was not willing to pay for the research.
Committee Member Feinberg
The owner wrote in general that the style of the windows did not have grids.
Vice Chair Quieroz
This is contradictory to my research.
Commissioner Burnett
Why did the owner choose two different materials of Fibrex and Aluminum clad wood?
Anita, Applicant Representing Renewal by Anderson,
The owner chose Fibrex for the front windows. The owner chose wood composite with grids
for the non-visible areas on the side and back.
Page 7
PAGE 4 OF 12 MINUTES OF THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF AUGUST 27, 2025
Closed Public Comment.
Committee members discussed the matter.
Commissioner Burnett
Why are the 3 windows done in aluminum clad?
Sean Mullin, Planning Manager
Aluminum-clad windows require less maintenance and can be painted. The Fibrex windows
would be full Fibrex and not clad around wood.
Vice Chair Queiroz
Their research found that diamond shape or rectangular shape is common for Tudor style.
There was nothing about plain glass. Prefer divided lites or, as a compromise, put divided lites
in the transom area. The series A for the 500 series by Anderson offers diamond shape lites.
Member Feinberg
The neighbors next door and across the street changed their windows with no divided lites.
Did they come before this committee? Is there a precedent?
Commissioner Thomas
Most Tudor homes were traditionally larger. This is a small cottage size Tudor. Looked at
neighbors for comparison. Windows with no lites look less busy. The proposed replacement
looks better, but there are other options that would look good.
Commissioner Burnett
Magnesson is a unique street. Prefer to keep the front windows the same. The divided lites
provide character. Prefer windows with divided lites instead of plain glass.
Commissioner Thomas
We could ask for a continuance from the owner to provide photos of the original windows.
Sean Mullin, Planning Manager
Possibly make a motion to approve the project with the condition that the front window be
done a certain way.
Vice Chair Queiroz
Support the compromise that the street-facing windows have some divided lites.
Member Feinberg
Don’t want to overcomplicate the process, especially since the neighbors recently installed
windows without grids.

Sean Mullin, Planning Manager
The Committee can be specific about each window.
Open Public Comment
Anita, Applicant Representing Renewal by Anderson,
Windows on the sides will have divided lites. Windows 115 and 116 will be replaced with
divided lites. There are six total windows in the front. Window 109 is visible. Window 110 is not
visible.
Closed public comment
MOTION: Motion by Commissioner Thomas to recommend approval for windows
with the condition that windows 103, 104, and 105, have divided lites.
Windows 106, 107, and 108 do not need lites. Windows 109, 110, 111,
112, and 113 on the side elevation will have divided lites. Windows 114,
115 and 116 are approved as proposed. Seconded by Commissioner

Consider a Request to Remove a Pre-1941 Property from the Historic Resources
Inventory for Property Zoned R-1D. APN 529-26-016. Exempt Pursuant to CEQA
Guidelines, Section 15061 (b)(3). Property Owner/Applicant: Swapnil Raut and Rashmi
Jadhav. Project Planner: Suray Nathan.
Suray Nathan, Assistant Planner, presented the staff report.
Committee members asked questions of Staff.
Opened Public Comment.
Rashmi Jadhav and Swapnil Raut, Owners
The integrity of the house has been significantly altered. In 1957, a permit was issued to add
a bedroom and a bathroom. In 2000, the kitchen and bathroom were remodeled. Also, all the
windows were replaced. Their letter, photos, and the permit history show these changes.
Because of this and the absence of any record of any historic significance, they believe the
house no longer meets the requirements to be on the Historic Registry. They wish to remodel
Page 9
PAGE 6 OF 12 MINUTES OF THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF AUGUST 27, 2025
to accommodate their growing family. They would remodel while preserving the home’s
Mediterranean revival style, character and charm.
Committee members asked questions of the applicant.
Swapnil Raut, Owner
They love the Mediterranean Spanish-style house and intend to keep it, but they want to
expand the house to fit their family. This includes changing the front. They have reached out to
the neighbors. The neighbors were happy since the house has been changed in the past. They
mentioned visiting the Historic Preservation Committee to get their blessings.
Closed Public Comment.
Committee members discussed the matter.
Vice Chair Queiroz
Even though it is a simple example of the style, it has many characteristics: a hipped roof,
the arched articulated front door, red tile roof, arch above the windows, low-pitched roof,
stucco walls, asymmetrical façade, and ornamental tiles on the stairs. There are missing items
like the red roof tiles, windows that are tall and narrow, and black wrought iron. It is a simple
and unornamented house but meets many of the criteria for the style. Prefer leaving it in the
inventory.
Member Feinberg
I disagree. I don’t see any distinctive characteristics, except for the front entry door with the
tile roof and clay tile steps. The other criteria outweigh these few characteristics. There are no
significant events or persons of note, and the integrity of the house has been severely
compromised.
Commissioner Burnett
It is a good example of the Mediterranean Revival style of the 1920’s. The stucco is in good
condition. The owners can still remodel even when kept on the Historic Inventory.
Commissioner Thomas
The addition has compromised the integrity of the house. There is no significant person or
event related to this house. It does not have enough distinct characteristics to keep in the
inventory. Leaning towards granting the request to remove.
Commissioner Burnett
The stucco on the addition blends well with the original house.

Samina Merchant, Associate Planner, presented the staff report.
Opened Public Comment.
Andres Johnson, Architect
The last time they came before the Committee, the proposed second-floor addition was in
the back. The Committee’s recommendation was to move it forward and add more detail. They
moved it forward 18 feet to fit with the interior layout and roofline. The house is a one-story
with mission style windows, lanterns, corbels, etc. They are trying to enhance the Spanish
Colonial style with tiles and lanterns. The owner is looking for recommendations and positive
feedback because it is an investment for them.
Committee members asked questions of the applicant.
Member Feinberg
Has the owner spoken with the neighbors? Why are they not here?
Andres Johnson, Architect
I don’t know if they have spoken with the neighbors. They are out of town but were here
the last time.
Page 11
PAGE 8 OF 12 MINUTES OF THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF AUGUST 27, 2025
Commissioner Burnett
The changes look very good. Is the upper front window the right size?
Andres Johnson, Architect
We will balance the size of the window in the parapet. The window allows light into the
staircase.
Commissioner Thomas
What does the owner plan to do with the roof?
Andres Johnson, Architect
The owner wants to put a whole roof of clay tile but is not sure if it can handle the load.
Commissioner Burnett
What color is the stucco on the addition?
Andres Johnson, Architect
The stucco will be all white.
Vice Chair Queiroz
They did a good job in listening to the Committees comments the last meeting. The design
looks good as it is. But it would be nice to add a carved rounded arch above the window in the
addition. This’ll tie the addition to the main house.
Andres Johnson, Architect
Yes, we can do that arch with the clay tile vents.
Member Feinberg
What is planned for the carport?
Andres Johnson, Architect
The carport is not part of the project and will be left as it is.
Commissioner Thomas
The changes will suit the house better. It is an appropriate design for the second-story
addition.
Closed the Public Hearing.

within 1,000 feet of the subject property. Vice Chair Queiroz appointed Commissioner to
chair the meeting
Sean Mullin, Planning Manager, presented the staff report.
Opened Public Comment.
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
This home is a non-contributor in the Almond Grove District. There’s a lot of Victorian
homes in that area. They want to restore the character, clean up the façade, and return a
garage to the home. It doesn’t conform to setbacks. When they do a formal submission, they
will ask for reductions in the front and rear. The house is adjacent to an alley. There are
precedents of porches and bay windows in the neighborhood. The house at 224 Massol has
porches to the front. The house at 240 Massol has a front bay window. There are other homes
in the neighborhood that have bay windows. No materials have been chosen yet, but they have
3-D renderings showing the look of the porch and bay window. In the past the primary
bedroom replaced the former garage. Owners will talk on the justification and research on the
home.
Jean Melax, Co-owner
Their house was part of the property at 240 Massol. In 1996, they tore down an existing
garage and built a primary bedroom. They also did a small lot line adjustment. In 2004, they did
another lot line adjustment, which added a large empty space. That is where they are proposing
to add a garage. They love the neighborhood. They want to add some more Victorian features
like the porches in the front and sides of the house.
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
The reduction in setbacks is to accommodate the porches. They will not go any further than
the front of the home. The only pop out is where the bay window. The porch will match others
in the neighborhood. Proposing a 4-foot setback. From the rear property line. Create a porch
and add the cantilevered Bay window
Page 13
PAGE 10 OF 12 MINUTES OF THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF AUGUST 27, 2025
Jean Melax, Owner
The other neighborhood garages are close to the alley. There are garages that have 3-foot
setbacks.
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
They are proposing 4-foot setbacks.
Commissioner Burnett
No problem with the setbacks. But I am not happy with the design on the front. The
columns are too heavy and have a modern look. It doesn’t have the cottage feel. It looks very
futuristic.
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
We don’t have the proposed materials yet. They will use the original wood siding and match
the porch to the others in the neighborhood. They want to avoid demolishing the roof.
Member Feinberg
The rendering doesn’t show the porch with details. We appreciate the research you did.
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
It is better to look at the elevations.
Commissioner Thomas
What were you planning on the bay window?
Stanley Melax, Owner
We are open to suggestions on the bay window. Our main purpose is to add a garage. The
front of the house is slightly empty.
Commissioner Thomas
Like the bay windows. This rendering is not the best visual representation. The bay window
can be boxy or whatever style fits and makes sense both inside and outside.
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
One of the goals is not to put weight or extreme slope to the existing structure. Trying to
avoid demolishing any part of the original home.
Member Feinberg
Like that you are going back in time by adding more historical details. Thank you for your
research.
Page 14
PAGE 11 OF 12 MINUTES OF THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMITTEE MEETING OF AUGUST 27, 2025
Commissioner Thomas
That neighborhood has many non-conforming setbacks. The setbacks already exist.
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
They’re also thinking about adding a covered walkway from garage to kitchen.
Commissioner Thomas
What would the garage look like?
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
The materials will match the main house. They would use the same wood siding, window
trim, divided lites, etc.
Sean Mullin, Planning Manager
Consider a porch design that is proportionate and appropriate to the house. Design a bay
window. A planner will work with them on the setbacks. They will need to flesh out the
materials.
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
Can we have a shallow roof? They also want to add five feet of patio space. Three equal
columns on the porch will be placed so they can see out the kitchen windows. The parapet can
have trim.
Sean Mullin, Planning Manager
The trim details on the porch will be critical.
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
They can pull porch design details from the design reference book. There are many porch
examples on Tait.
Jean Melax, Owner
The paint color will not be yellow since that would be the same as their neighbors.
Sean Mullin, Planning Manager
They could come back for another preliminary review or go ahead and submit a formal
application.
Jennifer Kretchner, Architect
Do you object to the low slope of the porch?
Commissioner Thomas
It should tie in with the rest of the house. A porch will add character.

TOWN OF LOS GATOS
HISTORIC PRESERVATION
COMMITTEE REPORT
MEETING DATE: 09/24/2024
ITEM NO: 2
DATE: September 19, 2025
TO: Historic Preservation Committee
FROM: Joel Paulson, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Consider a Request for Approval to Construct an Addition to an Existing
Pre-1941 Single-Family Residence on Property Zoned R-1D. Located at 333
Los Gatos Boulevard. APN 529-22-021. Exempt Pursuant to CEQA Section
15301: Existing Facilities. Request for Review Application PHST-25-018.
Property Owner/Applicant: Nichola Palmer. Project Planner: Sean Mullin.
RECOMMENDATION:
Consider a request for approval to construct an addition to an existing pre-1941 single-family
residence on property zoned R-1D, located at 333 Los Gatos Boulevard.
PROPERTY DETAILS:
1. Date primary structure was built: 1912 (effective year built 1922) per County Assessor’s
Database
2. Bloomfield Preliminary Rating: +, historic and intact, worthy of special note
3. Does property have an LHP Overlay? No
4. Is structure in a historic district? No
5. If yes, is it a contributor? N/A
6. Findings required? No
7. Considerations required? Yes
BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located on the west side of Los Gatos Boulevard near the intersection
with Harding Avenue. The County Assessor reports that the residence was constructed in 1912,
with an effective year built of 1922. The Anne Bloomfield survey provides an estimated
construction date of the 1900s and assigns a preliminary rating of “+” or historic and intact,
worthy of special note (Attachment 1).
Page 17
PAGE 2 OF 3
SUBJECT: 333 Los Gatos Boulevard/PHST-25-004
DATE: September 19, 2025
The Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps do not provide coverage for the property until 1928. The
footprint of the residence remains consistent between the 1928 and the 1956 maps
(Attachment 2). Town records include a permit to repair earthquake damage to the fireplace in
1990.
On March 26, 2025, the Los Gatos Historic Preservation Committee provided preliminary
feedback on the proposal, including:
Supportive of the addition as it is appropriate given the width of the porch and is contained
within the porch overhang;
Supportive of removing the two windows on the left side elevation;
Revise the width of the new window on the front elevation to match the width of the other
windows on the front elevation to remain;
Consider modifying the arrangement of the bathroom to allow the window on the front
elevation to maintain sill heights consistent with the other windows on the front elevation
to remain;
Incorporate columns/pillars on the sides of the addition to continue the pattern of the
columns/pillars on the porch; and
Consider reuse of the existing window on the front elevation proposed for removal.
DISCUSSION:
The applicant submitted an application for a Building Permit for the project and requests a
formal recommendation from the Committee. The proposed 79-square foot addition is located
on the left side of the front elevation, within a portion of the existing covered porch
(Attachment 4). The addition would accommodate a new bathroom for the residence and
includes wood siding to match the existing, as well as two windows. The addition includes reuse
of the existing wood sash of the window on the front elevation and a new vinyl window on the
left side elevation. The proposed new single-hung window would include a top sash with
simulated divided lites in a three-over-one configuration to match the existing windows. Both
windows in the addition would be trimmed to match the detailing of existing windows.
Residential Design Guidelines Section 4.8.4 notes that new windows should be constructed of
real glass, and window frames should be constructed of real wood - not vinyl, metal or plastic.
Wood sashes may be vinyl or metal clad if the window frame and dressing is designed
consistent with the historic context of the building.
CONSIDERATIONS:
A. Considerations
Sec. 29.80.290. Standards for review.
In evaluating applications, the deciding body shall consider the architectural style, design,
Page 18
PAGE 3 OF 3
SUBJECT: 333 Los Gatos Boulevard/PHST-25-004
DATE: September 19, 2025
arrangement, texture, materials and color, and any other pertinent factors. Applications
shall not be granted unless:
X For pre-1941 structures, the proposed work will neither adversely affect the exterior
architectural characteristics or other features of the property which is the subject of
the application.
B. Residential Design Guidelines
Section 3.9 of the Town’s Residential Design Guidelines offers recommendations for
construction of additions to existing residences (Attachment 3).
CONCLUSION:
The applicant is requesting approval to construct an addition to an existing pre-1941 single-
family residence on property zoned R-1D, located at 333 Los Gatos Boulevard. The project can
be completed with a Building Permit, which is currently under review. Should the Committee
find merit in the request, a recommendation of approval would be forwarded to the
Community Development Director and the project would not return to the Committee.

Residential Design Guidelines 33
Town of Los Gatos BUILDING DESIGN3
3.8.3 Use traditional detailing
•Treat openings in walls as though they were constructed of
the traditional material for the style. For example, be sure to
provide substantial wall space above arches in stucco and
stone walls. Traditionally, wall space above the arch would
have been necessary to structurally span the opening, and
to make the space too small is inconsistent with the archi-
tectural style.
•Openings in walls faced with stone, real or synthetic, should
have defined lintels above the opening except in Mission or
Spanish Eclectic styles. Lintels may be stone, brick or wood
as suits the style of the house.
•Treat synthetic materials as though they were authentic.
For example, select synthetic stone patterns that place the
individual stones in a horizontal plane as they would have
been in a load bearing masonry wall.
•Select roof materials that are consistent with the traditional
architectural style (e.g., avoid concrete roof tiles on a Crafts-
man Style house.)
3.8.4 Materials changes
•Make materials and color changes at inside corners rather
than outside corners to avoid a pasted on look.
3.9 ADDITIONS/ACCESSORY BUILDINGS/SECONDARY
UNITS
•Site additions in the least conspicuous place. In many cases
this is a rear or side elevation - only rarely is it a rooftop.
•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.
•Additions should be subordinate, and compatible in scale
and proportion to the historically significant portions of
the existing structure.
•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
Use stone or wood lintels over
openings in stone walls
Additions, accessory buildings and secondary
units should match the form, architectural
style, and details of the original house

should utilize the same materials as the existing protected
exterior elements.
•When an addition necessitates the removal of architectural
materials, such as siding, windows, doors, and decorative
elements, they should be carefully removed and reused in
the addition where possible.
•The introduction of window and door openings not char-
acteristic in proportion, scale, or style with the original
architecture is strongly discouraged (e.g., sliding windows or
doors in a structure characterized by double hung windows
and swinging doors).
•The character of any addition or alteration should be in
keeping with and subordinate to the integrity of the original
structure.
•The amount of foundation exposed on the addition should
match that of the original building.
•Do not add roof top additions where the roof is of historic
significance.
•Second floor additions are discouraged in neighborhoods
with largely one story homes. If horizontal expansion of
the house is not possible, consider incorporating a second
floor addition within the roof form as shown in the example
to the left.
•Second floor additions which are not embedded within the
roof form should be located to the rear of the structure.
•The height and proportion of an addition or a second story
should not dominate the original structure.
•Deck additions should be placed to the rear of the struc-
ture only, and should be subordinate in terms of scale and
detailing.
•New outbuildings, such as garages, should be clearly subor-
dinate to the main structure in massing, and should utilize
forms, materials and details which are similar to the main
structure.
•Garages should generally be located to the rear of the lot
behind the rear wall of the residence. One car wide access
driveways should be utilized.
Original structure
Addition incorporated into the roof
successfully adds space while respecting the
integrity of the existing house and the scale of
the neighborhood
Placing a two story addition to the rear can minimize its impact on the historic resource and the scale of the neighborhood

HISTORIC PRESERVATION
COMMITTEE REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/24/25
ITEM NO: 3
DATE: September 19, 2025
TO: Historic Preservation Committee
FROM: Joel Paulson, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Consider a Request for Approval to Construct an Addition and Exterior
Alterations to an Existing Pre-1941 Single-Family Residence on Property
Zoned R-1:8. Located at 16488 Bonnie Lane. APN 532-02-014. Request for
Review Application PHST-25-017. Categorically Exempt Pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Section 15301:
Existing Facilities. Property Owner: Mai of Tran 2020 Trust. Applicant: Vu-
Ngan Tran. Project Planner: Maria Chavarin.
RECOMMENDATION:
Consider a request for approval to construct an addition and exterior alterations to an existing
pre-1941 single-family residence on property zone R-1:8 located at 16488 Bonnie Lane.
PROPERTY DETAILS:
1. Date primary structure was built: 1938 per County Assessor’s Database
2. Bloomfield Preliminary Rating: +, historic and intact or worthy of special note.
3. Does property have an LHP Overlay? No
4. Is structure in a historic district? No
5. If yes, is it a contributor? N/A
6. Findings required? No
7. Considerations required? Yes
BACKGROUND:
The County Assessor indicates that the residence located at 16488 Bonnie Lane was
constructed in 1938. The 1991 Bloomfield Survey estimates the construction date as the 1930s
and providing a rating of “historic and intact or worthy of special note” (Attachment 1). The
property is not within the coverage area of the Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps. Town records
indicate that a request for a 644 square-foot second-story addition, a 356 square-foot first-floor

DATE: September 19, 2025
addition, and new patios were approved by the Town in August 1989 (Attachment 2). The
applicant provided photos of the property, which are included as Attachment 3.
Other requests recently appeared before the Historic Preservation Committee on several
occasions, as outlined below (Attachment 4):
1. October 25, 2023: Consider a request to remove the pre-1941 property from the Historic
Resources Inventory. The Committee voted unanimously to deny the request.
2. April 24, 2024: Requesting approval for construction of a second-story addition exceeding
100 square feet. The Committee made a motion to continue the item to return to the
Committee with revised designs.
3. May 22, 2024: The application returned for review of the revised plans addressing the
Committee’s recommendations. The Committee made a motion to recommend approval
with a condition that the replacement windows be fiberglass-clad wood windows.
4. March 26, 2025: The applicant returned for review of design changes for the addition that
were not originally considered by the Committee. The Committee made a motion to
recommend approval with a condition that the applicant work with staff to find a window
manufacturer that produces fiberglass-clad wood windows. The Minor Residential
Development application was approved on April 24, 2025.
DISCUSSION:
The property is located on the east side of Bonnie Lane, between Shady View Lane and Shannon
Road. The applicant is requesting a formal recommendation by the Committee on a proposal to
construct an addition and for exterior alterations to the residence (Attachment 5).
The applicant proposes an addition on the west elevation, facing Bonnie Lane. The 234-square
foot addition would be located on the first floor, below a previously approved second-story
addition. The proposed addition would accommodate an expanded family room and result in a
3,270-square foot residence, which would comply with the maximum floor area allowed for the
property. The addition would include four new sliding windows, an entry door, and a six-panel
folding glass door system. All proposed exterior materials would match those existing and
previously approved, including the fiberglass-clad wood windows.
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:
Page 48
PAGE 3 OF 3
SUBJECT: 16488 Bonnie Lane/PHST-25-017
DATE: September 19, 2025
For pre-1941 structures, the proposed work will neither adversely affect the exterior
architectural characteristics or other features of the property which is the subject of
the application.
B. Residential Design Guidelines
Section 3.9 of the Town’s Residential Design Guidelines offers recommendations for
construction of additions to existing residences (Attachment 6).
CONCLUSION:
The applicant is requesting approval to construct an addition and exterior alterations to an
existing pre-1941 single-family residence on property zoned R-1:8. Should the Committee find
merit in the request, a recommendation of approval would be forwarded to the Community
Development Director. The project could be completed with a Building Permit, and if confirmed
through Planning review to be in substantial conformance with the Committee’s review and
recommendations, would not return to the Committee.

LETTER OF JUSTIFICATION
To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing this letter of justification to provide clarification regarding the modifications to the
previously approved design. Our intention is to utilize the available open space beneath the master
bathroom and the balcony to expand the family room. This adjustment aims to enhance the living
area and improve the overall functionality of the space. All exterior finishes will match the previously
approved plan.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Vu-Ngan Tran

Residential Design Guidelines 33
Town of Los Gatos BUILDING DESIGN3
3.8.3 Use traditional detailing
•Treat openings in walls as though they were constructed of
the traditional material for the style. For example, be sure to
provide substantial wall space above arches in stucco and
stone walls. Traditionally, wall space above the arch would
have been necessary to structurally span the opening, and
to make the space too small is inconsistent with the archi-
tectural style.
•Openings in walls faced with stone, real or synthetic, should
have defined lintels above the opening except in Mission or
Spanish Eclectic styles. Lintels may be stone, brick or wood
as suits the style of the house.
•Treat synthetic materials as though they were authentic.
For example, select synthetic stone patterns that place the
individual stones in a horizontal plane as they would have
been in a load bearing masonry wall.
•Select roof materials that are consistent with the traditional
architectural style (e.g., avoid concrete roof tiles on a Crafts-
man Style house.)
3.8.4 Materials changes
•Make materials and color changes at inside corners rather
than outside corners to avoid a pasted on look.
3.9 ADDITIONS/ACCESSORY BUILDINGS/SECONDARY
UNITS
•Site additions in the least conspicuous place. In many cases
this is a rear or side elevation - only rarely is it a rooftop.
•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.
•Additions should be subordinate, and compatible in scale
and proportion to the historically significant portions of
the existing structure.
•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
Use stone or wood lintels over
openings in stone walls
Additions, accessory buildings and secondary
units should match the form, architectural
style, and details of the original house
ATTACHMENT 6
Page 119
Residential Design Guidelines34
Town of Los Gatos
BUILDING DESIGN3
should utilize the same materials as the existing protected
exterior elements.
• When an addition necessitates the removal of architectural
materials, such as siding, windows, doors, and decorative
elements, they should be carefully removed and reused in
the addition where possible.
• The introduction of window and door openings not char-
acteristic in proportion, scale, or style with the original
architecture is strongly discouraged (e.g., sliding windows or
doors in a structure characterized by double hung windows
and swinging doors).
• The character of any addition or alteration should be in
keeping with and subordinate to the integrity of the original
structure.
• The amount of foundation exposed on the addition should
match that of the original building.
• Do not add roof top additions where the roof is of historic
significance.
• Second floor additions are discouraged in neighborhoods
with largely one story homes. If horizontal expansion of
the house is not possible, consider incorporating a second
floor addition within the roof form as shown in the example
to the left.
• Second floor additions which are not embedded within the
roof form should be located to the rear of the structure.
• The height and proportion of an addition or a second story
should not dominate the original structure.
• Deck additions should be placed to the rear of the struc-
ture only, and should be subordinate in terms of scale and
detailing.
• New outbuildings, such as garages, should be clearly subor-
dinate to the main structure in massing, and should utilize
forms, materials and details which are similar to the main
structure.
• Garages should generally be located to the rear of the lot
behind the rear wall of the residence. One car wide access
driveways should be utilized.
Original structure
Addition incorporated into the roof
successfully adds space while respecting the
integrity of the existing house and the scale of
the neighborhood
Placing a two story addition to the rear can minimize its impact on the historic resource and the scale of the neighborhood

TOWN OF LOS GATOS
HISTORIC PRESERVATION
COMMITTEE REPORT
MEETING DATE: 09/24/2025
ITEM NO: 4
DATE: September 19, 2025
TO: Historic Preservation Committee
FROM: Joel Paulson, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Consider a Preliminary Review of a Request to Construct a New Second-Story
Addition and Exterior Alterations to an Existing Pre-1941 Single-Family
Residence on Property Zoned R-1D. Located at 446 San Benito Avenue. APN
410-16-051. Request for Review Application PHST-25-015. Exempt Pursuant
to CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301: Existing Facilities. Property
Owner/Applicant: Devendra Deshwal. Project Planner: Maria Chavarin.
RECOMMENDATION:
Consider a preliminary review of a request to construct a new second-story addition and
exterior alterations to an existing pre-1941 single-family residence located at 446 San Benito
Avenue.
PROPERTY DETAILS:
1. Date primary structure was built: 1905 per County Assessor’s Database; 1920s per Anne
Bloomfield Survey
2. Bloomfield Preliminary Rating: “✓” or historic and some altered
3. Does property have an LHP Overlay? No
4. Is structure in a historic district? No
5. If yes, is it a contributor? N/A
6. Findings required? N/A
7. Considerations required? Yes
BACKGROUND:
The County Assessor indicates that the residence located at 446 San Benito Avenue was
constructed in 1905 and the 1991 Bloomfield Survey estimates the construction date as the
1920s (Attachment 1). The building footprint shown on the Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps is
consistent between 1928 and 1944 (Attachment 1).
Page 131
PAGE 2 OF 3
SUBJECT: 446 San Benito Avenue/PHST-25-015
DATE: September 19, 2025
The 1991 Anne Bloomfield Survey rates the residence as historic and some altered (Attachment
1), making note of alterations to the porch and some windows. A review of Town permit
records provides the following permit history:
2004 – Electrical Permit;
2010 – Building Permit – front porch and roof eaves repairs; and
2015 – Building Permit – re-roof.
The applicant provided documentation suggesting an unpermitted addition was made to the
original structure at the right rear portion of the residence (Attachment 1). The applicant also
provided plans for the existing house showing the existing floor area at 889 square feet, while
the County Assessor reports the residence as being 685 square feet. Town records do not
include any permits for an addition to the residence; however, the portion of the residence in
question is included in the building footprint shown in the 1928 and 1944 Sanborn Fire
Insurance Maps. It is unclear whether this portion of the residence is unpermitted, was simply
constructed at a time when permits were not required, and/or the County Assessor provided an
inaccurate measure of the residence.
DISCUSSION:
The property is located on the east side of San Benito Avenue, between Andrews Street and Los
Gatos-Saratoga Road. The applicant is requesting a preliminary review of their project to
construct a new second-story addition and exterior alterations to an existing pre-1941 single-
family residence.
The applicant proposes additions to the first floor, a new second-story addition, and other
exterior alterations (Attachment 4). The first-floor addition would be located on the to the rear
and left side of the existing residence accommodating new living area and a new two-car
garage. The proposed second-story addition would be located toward the rear of the expanded
residence, expanding the living area and providing a new second-story deck. Exterior alterations
include relocating the front door and other window changes. The development plans do not
include full details of all the exterior materials included in the project. Based on what is
provided, proposed exterior materials include new wood shingle siding on the front and side
elevations, stucco on the rear elevation, a belly band on the side elevations, vinyl windows and
a new front door.
Staff provides the following points to aid in the Committee’s discussion of the project:
Appropriateness of the location and scale of the proposed additions (RDG 3.9)
Appropriateness of the attached garage, apparent aluminum roll-up doors, and proportion
of the garage relative to the front façade of the residence (RDG 4.8.15);
Page 132
PAGE 3 OF 3
SUBJECT: 446 San Benito Avenue/PHST-25-015
DATE: September 19, 2025
Compatibility of the proposed contemporary front door with the architecture of the
existing/expanded residence (RDG 4.8.3);
Inclusion of vinyl windows, which are discouraged (RDG 4.8.4);
Appropriateness of stucco siding and its inclusion on only one elevation (RDG 4.8.9, .10, and
.11); and
Use of the belly band on the side elevations to break up the two-story mass (RDG 3.3.3).
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:
For pre-1941 structures, the proposed work will neither adversely affect the exterior
architectural characteristics or other features of the property which is the subject of
the application.
B. Residential Design Guidelines
Section 3.9 of the Town’s Residential Design Guidelines offers recommendations for the
construction of additions to existing residences (Attachment 3).
CONCLUSION:
The applicant is requesting preliminary review by the Committee of a request to construct a
new second-story addition and exterior alterations to an existing pre-1941 residence located at
446 San Benito Avenue. A new second-story addition, if not triggering a technical demolition,
would be processed under a future Minor Residential Development application. This application
would return to the Committee for a formal recommendation to be forwarded to the
Community Development Director and the application would continue through the Minor
Residential Development process.

DETAILED JUSTIFICATION:
A wide-ranging research has been conducted in line with the guidelines of the Historic
Research WorkSheet, Historic Preservation Committee, Town of Los Gatos and the details
of the research are given as below:
1. LOS GATOS PUBLIC LIBRARY :
a. SANBORN MAPS : The Sanborn maps of 1928 & 1944 are attached as
Annexures-1 & 2. These maps show the main house and an accessory
structure in the rear yard. The main house still exists but the accessory
structure is no longer existing as will be seen from the existing site plan sheet
A1 in the plan set of the existing house attached as Annexure 10. .
b. 1941 TAX ASSESSMENT : The 1941 Tax Assessment Survey is attached
as Annexure-3. It does not convey any pointer to the historical character of
this building. (The survey report is for lot 43 (Old No.) as also correlated in the
ANNE BLOOMFIELD SURVEY.
c. 1989 ANNE BLOOMFIELD HISTORIC RESOURCE SURVEY
FORM :
The Anne Bloomfield Historic Resource Survey Form is attached as
Annexure-4. The survey also mentions its old lot No. as 43 and also provides
its likely year of construction as 1920. The original style is said to be
“Banglow”. It also mentions that some alterations to existing windows and the
Porch were done to the original house. A photo of the house is also given but
the features of the house are not very clear from it. As such, the survey does
not establish it to be a structure of historic importance.
d. POLK’S DIRECTORIES & TELEPHONE DIRECTORY :
Contd P2

of the persons stayed is given in Annexure -5 attached including the relevant
pages of the Polk’s Directory.
A search was made on the internet for important persons associated with Los
Gatos and a list of 83 people appeared as per the link below:
https://www.famousfix.com/list/people-from-los-gatos-california
None of these famous people lived in this house..
Thus a perusal of Annexure 5 and the Google search shows that no
significant persons are associated with this house/structure.
e. HISTORIC PROPERTY RESEARCH COLLOECTION :
The Historic Property Research Collection in the Los Gatos Library was
searched and no record pertaining to this structure was found in box no. 9
relevant for the San Benito Ave. A record of only one house i.e. for 441, was
found in the box. This establishes the house at 446 San Benito Ave does not
have any historical importance.
2. SANTA CLARA COUNTY RESOURCES:
A request was made to the planning department of the Santa Clara County to
ascertain if any plans or any other records are available in the county records.
The county replied that no plan or any other records are available for 446 San
Benito Ave & asked to contact the town of Los Gatos for the same. Thus no
historical records are available in the county for this structure. The email
screenshot of the replies from the county are attached as Annexure 6 & 7.
3. TOWN OF LOS GATOS- COMPUTER RECORDS:
A search was made on the computer installed in the lobby to find out the
records of 446 San Benito Ave. The search yielded some of the records
including the permit records for some of the works done in this house. These
records are attached as Annexure 8 (11 pages). A perusal of these records
indicate that some alteration works have been done to the original house as
below:
1. Electrical service upgrade
2. Front porch repair and repair of the eve.
3. Repair of the roof and eave including replacement of the rafters. The
shape of the house given in this permit is rectangular box type.
4. In addition other unpermitted works have also been carried out in the
house as brought out in succeeding paras.
4. ADDITIONAL DETAILS:
(a) In addition, the details of the house were also downloaded from the Town
of Los Gatos city portal and the same are attached as Annexure-9.. A
perusal of these records show that the permitted floor area of this house is
684 Sq Ft only. whereas the existing floor area of the house is 889 sq ft
without the front porch. It speaks of some unpermitted addition made to
the house as discussed in following paras.
-2-
Contd P3Page 138
(b) The plans of the existing house have been prepared and are attached as
Annexure 10 (24 pages). The floor area of the existing house is 889 Sq Ft
as against the permitted floor area of 684 Sq Ft only.
It is also seen that the ceiling height of the bedroom & bathroom on the
right side is only 6’-9” to 6’-11”, as against the main house ceiling height of
8’-0”(+). It is marked with A, B & C on sheet A4, A5 & A6.1.
It establishes that some unpermitted constructions have been made to the
house. The possible unpermitted portion is marked in redlines in sheet A2
(Existing Floor Plan) & A2.1 (Area Calculations).
The photo survey of the existing house has also been done & the photos
of the house are given in sheet A 6.1 to A6.17 & A7 of the attached plan
set (Annexure -10).
A quick perusal of the photos & plan indicate that the house is not
structurally sound & also some alterations have been made which are not
code compliant as outlined below:
i. The ridge board of the porch is not provided as seen in plan sheet
A6.7. Thus the porch roof is not structurally sound.
ii. The height in the bedroom 2 is less than 7’-6” the minimum admissible
height.
iii. A wall has been constructed between bedroom 1 & closet which is
abutting the middle of the window as seen in Sheet A6.17.
iv. The existing windows of the bedroom are not egress compliant as per
the current code requirement etc.
v. The architectural design of the house is very simple- a rectangular box
with front porch enclosed on all sides and no uniqueness is noticed in
the architectural details/design.
vi. Further due to alteration to window & porch etc, the original design is
no longer existing.
(c) As would be seen from the plan sheet A7, all the houses around this
house have been modified and present a good look and this house in the
existing condition is totally a misfit in the area.
(d) The APN map and the Tract Map of the lot are also attached as Annexure
11 & 12.
CONCLUSION:
In view of the above points, it is clear that the existing house has no architectural
merit for the following reasons:
a. The structure is not associated with events that have made a significant
contribution to the Town;
b. No significant persons are associated with the structure.
c. There are no distinctive characteristics of type, period or method of
construction or representation of work of a master;
d. The structure does not yield information to Town history; and,

PROJECT DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
446 SAN BENITO AVE, LOS GATOS, CA, 95030
PROJECT NAME: - AddiƟon & Remodelling of ExisƟng House
PROJECT ADDRESS: - 446 San Benito Ave, Los Gatos, CA-95030
OWNERS: - Rajkumari & Devendra
PROPERTY DETAILS (EXISTING): -
1. APN No: - 410-16-051
2. The exisƟng house is in R1-D Zone & the primary structure was built in 1920
i.e. prior to 1941. And, therefore, the house is considered a historic inventory.
3. The lot area is 7200 SqŌ and the living area of the exisƟng house is 850 SqŌ.
4. The floor height of the exisƟng structure is 8’-0”.
DETAILS OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT: -
It is proposed to make an addiƟon to this house on the first floor & second floor. The
broad parameters of the addiƟon are as under:
ZONING: - RM-512
CONSTRUCTION TYPE: - V-B (NON-SPRINKLERED)
OCCUPANCY: - R3U SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL WITH ATTACHED GARAGE
STORIES:- 2
LOT AREA = 7,200 SQ FT (0.1653 ACRES)
FLOOR AREA ALLOWED = 0.33 X 7200 = 2376 SQ FT
GARAGE FLOOR AREA ALLOWED = 0.094 X 7200 = 677 SQ FT
MAX LOT COVERAGE - 40% (7200 SQ FT) = 2880 SQ FT

5. AŌer compleƟon of the project the building will have 4 bedrooms & 4
bathrooms.
6. To maintain the historic character of the house following aspects have been
kept in view-
i. The front porƟon of the exisƟng house has mostly been maintained
as it is except that the trellis which were not part of the original
house are proposed to be removed and the front door & window
locaƟons have been swiped.
ii. The roof style of the second story as well as for the first floor
addiƟon on the leŌ side has been designed to match the exisƟng
style.
iii. The houses in the area in general, are with gable roofs and
therefore, the proposed elevaƟon of the house matches with the
exisƟng houses in the neighbourhood.
iv. The wood shingles siding is being adopted for the whole house
similar to the one in the exisƟng house.
v. Though in the exisƟng condiƟon the windows have been modified to
vinyl windows with no architectural elements, the new windows
have been proposed with projected sills and bends on all four sides
to match the historical character of the house, as seen in the old
photographs.
vi. As would be seen from the neighbourhood analysis this house aŌer
addiƟon is a median house with reference to its floor area or height
etc.
7. 3D views of the proposed house aŌer addiƟon are included in the plan set to
provide an overall view of the house for beƩer appreciaƟon of its features.

Residential Design Guidelines 33
Town of Los Gatos BUILDING DESIGN3
3.8.3 Use traditional detailing
•Treat openings in walls as though they were constructed of
the traditional material for the style. For example, be sure to
provide substantial wall space above arches in stucco and
stone walls. Traditionally, wall space above the arch would
have been necessary to structurally span the opening, and
to make the space too small is inconsistent with the archi-
tectural style.
•Openings in walls faced with stone, real or synthetic, should
have defined lintels above the opening except in Mission or
Spanish Eclectic styles. Lintels may be stone, brick or wood
as suits the style of the house.
•Treat synthetic materials as though they were authentic.
For example, select synthetic stone patterns that place the
individual stones in a horizontal plane as they would have
been in a load bearing masonry wall.
•Select roof materials that are consistent with the traditional
architectural style (e.g., avoid concrete roof tiles on a Crafts-
man Style house.)
3.8.4 Materials changes
•Make materials and color changes at inside corners rather
than outside corners to avoid a pasted on look.
3.9 ADDITIONS/ACCESSORY BUILDINGS/SECONDARY
UNITS
•Site additions in the least conspicuous place. In many cases
this is a rear or side elevation - only rarely is it a rooftop.
•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.
•Additions should be subordinate, and compatible in scale
and proportion to the historically significant portions of
the existing structure.
•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
Use stone or wood lintels over
openings in stone walls
Additions, accessory buildings and secondary
units should match the form, architectural
style, and details of the original house
ATTACHMENT 3
Page 197
Residential Design Guidelines34
Town of Los Gatos
BUILDING DESIGN3
should utilize the same materials as the existing protected
exterior elements.
• When an addition necessitates the removal of architectural
materials, such as siding, windows, doors, and decorative
elements, they should be carefully removed and reused in
the addition where possible.
• The introduction of window and door openings not char-
acteristic in proportion, scale, or style with the original
architecture is strongly discouraged (e.g., sliding windows or
doors in a structure characterized by double hung windows
and swinging doors).
• The character of any addition or alteration should be in
keeping with and subordinate to the integrity of the original
structure.
• The amount of foundation exposed on the addition should
match that of the original building.
• Do not add roof top additions where the roof is of historic
significance.
• Second floor additions are discouraged in neighborhoods
with largely one story homes. If horizontal expansion of
the house is not possible, consider incorporating a second
floor addition within the roof form as shown in the example
to the left.
• Second floor additions which are not embedded within the
roof form should be located to the rear of the structure.
• The height and proportion of an addition or a second story
should not dominate the original structure.
• Deck additions should be placed to the rear of the struc-
ture only, and should be subordinate in terms of scale and
detailing.
• New outbuildings, such as garages, should be clearly subor-
dinate to the main structure in massing, and should utilize
forms, materials and details which are similar to the main
structure.
• Garages should generally be located to the rear of the lot
behind the rear wall of the residence. One car wide access
driveways should be utilized.
Original structure
Addition incorporated into the roof
successfully adds space while respecting the
integrity of the existing house and the scale of
the neighborhood
Placing a two story addition to the rear can minimize its impact on the historic resource and the scale of the neighborhood
