PROJECT DATA: General Plan Designation: Open Space Current Zoning Designation: R-1:20 – Single Family Residential, and RC – Resource Conservation Applicable Plans and Standards: General Plan, Town Code Parcel Size: 118.4 acres Page 257 PAGE 2 OF 9 SUBJECT: 14595 Clearview Drive, 17400 Wedgewood Avenue, 17445 Zena Ave/S-25-005 DATE: August 8, 2025 Surrounding Area: CEQA: The project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to the adopted Guidelines for the Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act, Sections 15301: Existing Facilities, and 15302: Replacement or Reconstruction. FINDINGS: The project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to the adopted Guidelines for the Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act, Sections 15301: Existing Facilities, and 15302: Replacement or Reconstruction. The project meets the objective standards of Chapter 29 of the Town Code (Zoning Regulations). CONSIDERATIONS: As required by Section 29.20.150 of the Town Code for granting approval of an Architecture and Site application. ACTION: The decision of the Planning Commission is final unless appealed within ten days. BACKGROUND: The subject property includes the La Rinconada Country Club and golf course occupying approximately 118.4 acres across several different parcels. The golf course is located south of Highway 85 and west of Winchester Boulevard, with access along Wedgewood Avenue, Clearview Drive, and Zena Avenue (Exhibit 1). The golf course has been in operation at this location for nearly 100 years and presently includes a full 18-hole golf course, driving range, practice greens, maintenance facility, clubhouse, pool, and fitness facility.

Several holes would be realigned, the fairway contours refined, and new bunkers and greens installed throughout the course. The redevelopment of the golf course requires a large amount of grading across the site, but the grading is designed to be balanced on-site to minimize truck hauling. Cart paths and the entry drive off Clearview Drive would be redesigned, and a new 250-square-foot restroom and comfort station would be added. Existing fairway grass would be replaced with more drought tolerant Bermuda grasses, with updated irrigation systems, and new trees would be planted to better suit the climate and modernization plan (Exhibit 5). Grading Permits, and associated Architecture and Site applications, and Large Protected Tree removals do not automatically trigger Planning Commission approval; however, due to the size of the project, amount of tree removals, grading quantities, and exceptions requested to the tree fencing and tree replacement requirements, this application is being forwarded to the Planning Commission for approval. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: A. Location and Surrounding Neighborhood The subject property is a golf course and country club that occupies approximately 118.4 acres and spans several different parcels. The golf course is located south of Highway 85 and west of Winchester Boulevard, with access along Wedgewood Avenue, Clearview Drive, and Zena Avenue (Exhibit 1). Single-family residential development surrounds the property on all sides, with the Rinconada Water Treatment Plant located along a portion of the western border of the site. B. Project Summary The applicant proposes a comprehensive redevelopment of the golf course, requiring a Grading Permit, removal of Large Protected Trees, and construction of a new restroom comfort station (Exhibit 5). C. Zoning Compliance The golf course and country club operates under an approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP), which was most recently amended in 2011 (Exhibit 4). The golf course modifications proposed with this Architecture and Site application would not affect the applicable conditions of approval tied to their CUP. Page 259 PAGE 4 OF 9 SUBJECT: 14595 Clearview Drive, 17400 Wedgewood Avenue, 17445 Zena Ave/S-25-005 DATE: August 8, 2025 DISCUSSION: A. Architecture and Site Analysis The applicant proposes a comprehensive redevelopment of the golf course, which includes a modernization of the 18-hole course, site grading, tree removal, construction of a new comfort station, and new vehicular entrance. Details of each of these components are provided below. The existing club house building and other on-site structures are not a part of this application. Golf Course Modernization The overarching goal behind this application, as noted in Exhibit 5, is to redevelop and modernize the existing 18-hole golf course. The golf course has been operating in its current configuration since the early 1990’s. As noted in Exhibit 5, golf courses typically require major rehabilitation every 30 years because fairway grasses become compromised and irrigation and drainage begin to fail. The existing 18-hole layout would be slightly modified in terms of the locations of each hole, and would include refined fairway contours, new bunkers, new greens throughout the course, and slight modifications to the existing water features. Drainage and irrigation would be updated, and cart paths would be modified and substantially reduced throughout the course. In addition to the course greens, site landscaping would be updated as well (Exhibit 11). Grading To facilitate the course modernization, the associated site work requires approval of an Architecture and Site approval for a Grading Permit. The proposed grading is for the reconfiguration of the course, and would result in a total of 52,300 cubic yards of cut and 52,300 cubic yards of fill (Sheet A0-10, Exhibit 11). No off haul or importing of native soil is anticipated for this project. Maximum proposed cut depth would be approximately 10 feet (near Holes 11 and 16) and maximum proposed fill depth would be approximately 10 feet (near Holes 7, 8 and 16). As this project is not located within the Hillside Area, compliance with the Hillside Development Standards and Guidelines for maximum cut and fill depth is not applicable. Justification for the project grading is provided in Exhibit 5. Page 260 PAGE 5 OF 9 SUBJECT: 14595 Clearview Drive, 17400 Wedgewood Avenue, 17445 Zena Ave/S-25-005 DATE: August 8, 2025 Tree Removal The existing 118.4-acre property contains over 1,200 trees. The applicant submitted an arborist report (Exhibit 6), which tagged and surveyed 945 trees within the project area. This arborist report was peer reviewed by the Town’s Consulting Arborist (Exhibit 7), and the applicant provided a response in Exhibit 8, and updated their report. The applicant proposes removal of 287 protected trees as a part of this project. The arborist report included as Exhibit 6 identifies 240 trees that require removal based on proposed construction activities, as well as another 47 trees that are recommended for removal based on current health, condition, and safety ratings. These additional 47 trees are identified as “HR” (Hazard Removal) within Exhibit 6 and the project plans (Exhibit 11) and are generally located along the perimeter of the golf course. Of the 287 trees proposed for removal, eight are considered exempt based on the species and size, and 16 are considered Large Protected Trees. Most of the Large Protected Tree removals (14 of the 16) are eucalyptus trees, which are known to be a fire risk. The Consulting Arborist reviewed the applicant’s arborist report and agreed with the list of 287 trees proposed for removal. The applicant provided detailed justification for the removals in Exhibit 5. In summary, the applicant notes that a critical element of the modernization project is to reduce water usage by planting new drought tolerant Bermuda grass and native trees that are better equipped to thrive in this climate. Many of the existing trees were planted over the past 60 years to separate the fairways and are non-native. The new drought tolerant Bermuda grass needs more sunlight to grow, and the current tree locations and heights are creating narrow fairways and excessive shading. Over the past few years, over 100 trees have fallen on the course either due to storms or drought. The majority of the proposed removals (150 out of 287) are Coast Redwoods, which require excessive watering that can no longer be supported, and eucalyptus trees (47 out of 287). Tree Replacement Town Code requires tree replacements for each protected tree proposed for removal. Based on the canopy size of the 287 trees proposed for removal, a total of 977 24-inch box trees (or 489 36-inch box trees) must be replanted on-site. For each of the 977 trees not proposed to be replaced, Town Code allows the applicant to pay an in-lieu fee to the Town’s Tree Replacement Fund. The applicant is proposing a reforestation plan that includes replanting 173 native trees, most of which would be oak trees (121 out of 173). The majority of the proposed replacements would exceed the standard 24-inch box replacement standard, with 66 of them being 48-inch box and 26 being 60-inch box trees. Town Code treats a 36-inch box trees as counting for two 24-inch box trees, but does not specify how to treat a 48-inch or Page 261 PAGE 6 OF 9 SUBJECT: 14595 Clearview Drive, 17400 Wedgewood Avenue, 17445 Zena Ave/S-25-005 DATE: August 8, 2025 60-inch box tree. Working with the Town Arborist and Consulting Arborist, staff would consider a 48-inch box tree as three 24-inch box trees and a 60-inch box tree as four 24-inch box trees. Based on these determinations, the proposed reforestation plan would be short 538 trees and would require an in-lieu fee payment of $134,500. The applicant attests that these larger trees should count more towards the replacement requirement, which would reduce the in-lieu fee total. The Planning Commission has the authority to increase the value of the 48- and 60-inch box trees, and also decrease the required tree in-lieu fees. The tables below outline the applicant’s replacement calculation compared to staff’s. Tree Protection The applicant and their arborist have prepared tree protection plans (Exhibit 11, TP Sheets) to ensure protection of the 658 trees that would be preserved on the site. The tree protection plans show that Town standard Type I protection, with six-foot tall chain-link fencing, is proposed for all trees in high-impact areas. For trees in areas deemed to have low to no construction impact, the applicant is proposing to use orange plastic fencing. The applicant has provided detailed justification for this exception request within Exhibit 5, detailing the cost savings associated with fencing a property of this size. The Consulting Arborist reviewed the request and noted that this option will need to be discussed and approved by staff and that one option is to have regular monitoring of the fence in-lieu of Page 262 PAGE 7 OF 9 SUBJECT: 14595 Clearview Drive, 17400 Wedgewood Avenue, 17445 Zena Ave/S-25-005 DATE: August 8, 2025 the sturdier chain-link fencing (Exhibit 7). The Town Arborist also reviewed this request and stated that this type of request has been supported in the past on larger projects. Staff has included Condition of Approval 9 within Exhibit 3 requiring monthly monitoring of the alternative fencing materials. Accessory Building As a part of the modernization and update plan for the property, a new 250-square foot comfort station is proposed on the site, between Holes 10 and 18 (Exhibit 11). The proposed comfort station includes two restrooms and a beverage station. The building would be approximately 13 feet tall and would include a tile roof and a mixture of stucco and stone veneer siding to match the club house. New Vehicular Entrance The modernization plan also includes a modified and realigned vehicular entry accessed via Clearview Drive, which serves as the primary public entrance to the property (Exhibit 11). The new entrance drive would be substantially in the same location, would be 22 feet wide, compliant with Town Code, and would require 480 cubic yards of grading. B. Environmental Review The applicant hired David J. Powers & Associates, Inc. to prepare a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) analysis on the proposed redevelopment plan. As provided in Exhibit 9, a noise study, construction emissions and health risk assessment, and biology report were conducted, concluding that, with implementation of the draft conditions of approval in Exhibit 3, the project is categorically exempt from CEQA per Sections 15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction). PUBLIC COMMENTS: Story poles and signage were installed on the site along three street frontages and written notice was sent to property owners and tenants located within 300 feet of the subject property. The applicant has also conducted substantial neighborhood outreach, including sending seven separate letters to all properties within 300 feet and hosting six different open house events. A summary of this neighborhood outreach is provided in Exhibit 10. Public comments received by 11:00 a.m., August 8, 2025, are provided in Exhibit 12. Page 263 PAGE 8 OF 9 SUBJECT: 14595 Clearview Drive, 17400 Wedgewood Avenue, 17445 Zena Ave/S-25-005 DATE: August 8, 2025 CONCLUSION: A. Summary The applicant is requesting approval of an Architecture and Site application, Grading Permit, and removal of Large Protected Trees associated with a comprehensive redevelopment and modernization plan for the La Rinconada Golf Course. The project grading would include 52,300 cubic yards of cut and 52,300 cubic yards of fill, balancing the dirt on-site. A total of 287 trees are proposed for removal, including 16 Large Protected Trees. The tree removal would be offset through replacement plantings and payment of in-lieu fees. B. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Planning Commission consider the request and, if merit is found with the proposed project, take the following steps to approve the Architecture and Site application and Large Protected Tree removals: 1. Find that the proposed project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to the adopted Guidelines for the implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act, Section 15301: Existing Facilities, and Section 15302: Replacement or Reconstruction (Exhibit 2); 2. Make the finding that the project complies with the objective standards of Chapter 29 of the Town Code (Zoning Regulations) (Exhibit 2); 3. Make the considerations as required by Section 29.20.150 of the Town Code for granting approval of an Architecture and Site application (Exhibit 2); and 4. Approve Architecture and Site application S-25-005 with the conditions contained in Exhibit 3 and the development plans in Exhibit 11. C. Alternatives Alternatively, the Commission can: 1. Continue the matter to a date certain with specific direction; or 2. Approve the application with additional and/or modified conditions; or 3. Deny the application.

APPROVAL: This application shall be completed in accordance with all of the conditions of approval and in substantial compliance with the approved plans. Any changes or modifications to the approved plans and/or business operation shall be approved by the Community Development Director, DRC or the Planning Commission depending on the scope of the changes. 2. EXPIRATION: The approval will expire two years from the approval date pursuant to Section 29.20.320 of the Town Code, unless the approval has been vested. 3. OUTDOOR LIGHTING: Exterior lighting shall be kept to a minimum, and shall be down directed fixtures that will not reflect or encroach onto adjacent properties. No flood lights shall be used unless it can be demonstrated that they are needed for safety or security. The lighting plan shall be reviewed during building plan check. 4. EXISTING TREES: All existing trees shown on the plan and trees required to remain or to be planted are specific subjects of approval of this plan, and must remain on the site. 5. TREE REMOVAL PERMIT: A Tree Removal Permit shall be obtained for any trees to be removed, prior to the issuance of a Building or Grading Permit. 6. ARBORIST REQUIREMENTS: The developer shall implement, at their cost, all recommendations made by Trees 360 and Richard Gessner, identified in the Arborist reports, dated July 17, 2025, on file in the Community Development Department. A Compliance Memorandum shall be prepared by the applicant and submitted with the building permit application detailing how the recommendations have or will be addressed. These recommendations must be incorporated in the building permit plans, and completed prior to issuance of a building permit where applicable. 7. TREE FENCING: Protective tree fencing shall be installed in accordance with the approved landscape plans and as noted in the July 17, 2025, arborist report, unless as modified by the Planning Commission. A tree protection fencing plan shall be included with the construction plans. EXHIBIT 3 Page 271 8. REPLACEMENT TREES: New trees shall be planted to mitigate the loss of trees being removed. The number of trees and size of replacement trees shall be planted in accordance to the table below. New trees shall be double staked with rubber ties and shall be planted prior to final inspection and issuance of occupancy permits. In-lieu fees, pursuant to Town Code, shall be paid to mitigate the replacement of any trees not planted per Town Code. 9. ARBORIST MONITORING: Anytime tree protection fencing and netting is to be constructed or moved, the project arborist shall be on-site to monitor the work and ensure compliance with tree protection plan. If plastic netting is approved in lieu of chain-link fencing, the project arborist shall inspect the fencing and submit a report to the Community Development Department monthly. 10. TREE STAKING: All newly planted trees shall be double-staked using rubber tree ties. 11. WATER EFFICIENCY LANDSCAPE ORDINANCE: The final landscape plan, including landscape and irrigation plans and calculations, shall meet the Town of Los Gatos Water Conservation Ordinance or the State Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance, whichever is more restrictive. The final landscape plan shall be reviewed by the Town’s consultant prior to issuance of building permits. A review fee based on the current fee schedule adopted by the Town Council is required when working landscape and irrigation plans are submitted for review. 12. PROPERTY FENCE: All new fencing shall comply with Town Code Section 29.40.0315 at building permit stage, unless an exception is granted by the Community Development Director. 13. STORY POLES: The story poles and project signs on the project site shall be removed within 30 days of approval of the Architecture and Site application. 14. BAAQMD MEASURES: During any construction period ground disturbance, the applicant shall ensure that the project contractor implements measures to control dust and exhaust. Implementation of the measures recommended by BAAQMD and listed below would reduce the air quality impacts associated with grading and new construction to a less-than-significant level. a. All exposed surfaces (e.g., parking areas, staging areas, soil piles, graded areas, and unpaved access roads) shall be watered two times per day. b. All haul trucks transporting soil, sand, or other loose material off-site shall be covered. c. All visible mud/dirt track-out onto adjacent public roads shall be removed using wet power vacuum street sweepers at least once per day. The use of dry power sweeping is prohibited. d. All vehicle speeds on unpaved roads shall be limited to 15 miles per hour (mph). e. All roadways, driveways, and sidewalks to be paved shall be completed as soon as Page 272 practicable. Building pads shall be laid as soon as practicable after grading unless seeding or soil binders are used. f. All excavation, grading, and/or demolition activities shall be suspended when average wind speeds exceed 20 mph. g. All trucks and equipment, including their tires, shall be washed off prior to leaving the site. h. Unpaved roads providing access to site located 100 feet of further from a paved road shall be treated with a six - to 12-inch layer of compacted layer of wood chips, mulch, or gravel. i. Publicly visible signs shall be posted with the telephone number and name of the person to contact at the lead agency regarding dust complaints. This person shall respond and take corrective action within 48 hours. The Air District’s General Air Pollution Complaints number shall be visible to ensure compliance with applicable regulations. 15. CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES: To limit the presence of noise during construction, the following shall be complied with during any construction, grading, or tree removals. a. Construction activities shall be limited to the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 pm on weekdays and between the hours of 9:00 am and 4:00 pm on Saturdays. No construction is permitted on Sundays or holidays. b. Equip all internal combustion engine-driven equipment with intake and exhaust mufflers that are in good condition and appropriate for the equipment. c. Prohibit unnecessary idling of internal combustion engines. d. Locate stationary noise-generating equipment, such as air compressors or portable power generators, as far as possible from sensitive receptors as feasible. If they must be located near receptors, adequate muffling (with enclosures where feasible and appropriate) shall be used to reduce noise levels at the adjacent sensitive receptors. Any enclosure openings or venting shall face away from sensitive receptors. e. Locate construction staging areas at locations that will create the greatest distance between the construction-related noise sources and noise-sensitive receptors nearest the project site during all project construction. f. Locate material stockpiles, as well as maintenance/equipment staging and parking areas, as far as feasible from residential receptors. g. Designate a "disturbance coordinator" who would be responsible for responding to any complaints about construction noise. The disturbance coordinator will determine the cause of the noise complaint (e.g., bad muffler, etc.) and will require that reasonable measures be implemented to correct the problem. Conspicuously post a telephone number for the disturbance coordinator at the construction site and include in it the notice sent to neighbors regarding the construction schedule. 16. CONSTRUCTION VIBRATION: To limit the presence of vibration during construction, the following shall be complied with during any construction, grading, or tree removals. a. Smaller equipment (less than 18,000 pounds) shall be used near the property lines adjacent to the residential buildings to minimize vibration levels. For example, a smaller vibratory roller similar to a Caterpillar model CP433E vibratory compactor could be used when compacting materials within 25 feet of vibration-sensitive Page 273 buildings. b. Small tractors/loaders/backhoes shall be used within 10 feet of vibration-sensitive buildings instead of excavators. c. Designate a Disturbance Coordinator responsible for registering and investigating claims of excessive vibration. The contact information of such person shall be clearly posted on the construction site. 17. NESTING BIRDS: To avoid impacts to nesting birds, the removal of trees and shrubs shall be minimized to the greatest extent feasible. Construction activities that include any tree removal, pruning, grading, grubbing, or demolition shall be conducted outside of the bird nesting season (January 15 through September 15) to the greatest extent feasible. If this type of construction starts, if work is scheduled to start or if work already occurring during the nesting season stops for at least two weeks and is scheduled to resume during the bird nesting season, then a qualified biologist shall conduct a pre- construction surveys for nesting birds to ensure that no nests would be disturbed during project construction. If project-related work is scheduled during the nesting season (February 15 to August 30 for small bird species such as passerines; January 15 to September 15 for owls; and February 15 to September 15 for other raptors), a qualified biologist shall conduct nesting bird surveys. Two surveys for active nests of such birds shall occur within 14 days prior to start of construction, with the second survey conducted with 48 hours prior to start of construction. Appropriate minimum survey radius surrounding each work area is typically 250 feet for passerines, 500 feet for smaller raptors, and 1,000 feet for larger raptors. Surveys shall be conducted at the appropriate times of day to observe nesting activities. If the qualified biologist documents active nests within the project site or in nearby surrounding areas, an appropriate buffer between each nest and active construction shall be established. The buffer shall be clearly marked and maintained until the young have fledged and are foraging independently. Prior to construction, the qualified biologist shall conduct baseline monitoring of each nest to characterize “normal” bird behavior and establish a buffer distance, which allows the birds to exhibit normal behavior. The qualified biologist shall monitor the nesting birds daily during construction activities and increase the buffer if birds show signs of unusual or distressed behavior (e.g. defensive flights and vocalizations, standing up from a brooding position, and/or flying away from the nest). If buffer establishment is not possible, the qualified biologist or construction foreman shall have the authority to cease all construction work in the area until the young have fledged and the nest is no longer active. 18. SPECIAL-STATUS BATS: Approximately 14 days prior to tree removal or structure demolition activities, a qualified biologist shall conduct a habitat assessment for bats and potential roosting sites in trees to be removed, in trees within 50 feet of the development footprint, and within and surrounding any structures that may be disturbed by the project. These surveys will include a visual inspection of potential roosting features (bats need not be present) and a search for presence of guano within the project site, construction access routes, and 50 feet around these areas. Cavities, crevices, exfoliating bark, and bark fissures that could provide suitable potential nest or roost habitat for bats shall be surveyed. Assumptions can be made on what species is present due to observed visual characteristics along with habitat use, or the bats can be Page 274 identified to the species level with the use of a bat echolocation detector such as an “Anabat” unit. Potential roosting features found during the survey shall be flagged or marked. If no roosting sites or bats are found, a letter report confirming absence will be prepared and no further measures are required. If bats or roosting sites are found, a letter report and supplemental documents will be prepared prior to grading permit issuance and the following monitoring, exclusion, and habitat replacement measures will be implemented: a. If bats are found roosting outside of the nursery season (May 1 through October 1), they will be evicted as described under (b) below. If bats are found roosting during the nursery season, they will be monitored to determine if the roost site is a maternal roost. This could occur by either visual inspection of the roost bat pups, if possible, or by monitoring the roost after the adults leave for the night to listen for bat pups. If the roost is determined to not be a maternal roost, then the bats will be evicted as described under (b) below. Because bat pups cannot leave the roost until they are mature enough, eviction of a maternal roost cannot occur during the nursery season. Therefore, if a maternal roost is present, a 50-foot buffer zone (or different size if determined in consultation with the CDFW) will be established around the roosting site within which no construction activities including tree removal or structure disturbance will occur until after the nursery season. b. If a non-breeding bat hibernaculum is found in a tree or snag scheduled for removal or on any structures scheduled to be disturbed by project activities, the individuals will be safely evicted, under the direction of a qualified bat biologist. If pre- construction surveys determine that there are bats present in any trees to be removed, exclusion structures (e.g. one-way doors or similar methods) shall be installed by a qualified biologist. The exclusion structures shall not be placed until the time of year in which young are able to fly, outside of the nursery season. Information on placement of exclusion structures shall be provided to the CDFW prior to construction. If needed, other methods conducted under the direction of a qualified bat biologist could include: carefully opening the roosting area in a tree or snag by hand to expose the cavity and opening doors/windows on structures, or creating openings in walls to allow light into the structures. Removal of any trees or snags and disturbance of any structures will be conducted no earlier than the following day (i.e., at least one night will be provided between initial roost eviction disturbance and tree removal/structure disturbance). This action will allow bats to leave during dark hours, which increases their chance of finding new roosts with a minimum of potential predation. 19. ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES AND HUMAN REMAINS: a. In the event that archaeological traces are encountered, all construction within a 50-meter radius of the find will be halted, the Community Development Director will be notified, and an archaeologist will be retained to examine the find and make appropriate recommendations. Page 275 b. If human remains are discovered, the Santa Clara County Coroner will be notified. The Coroner will determine whether or not the remains are Native American. If the Coroner determines the remains are not subject to his authority, he will notify the Native American Heritage Commission, who shall attempt to identify descendants of the deceased Native Americans. c. If the Community Development Director finds that the archaeological find is not a significant resource, work will resume only after the submittal of a preliminary archaeological report and after provisions for reburial and ongoing monitoring are accepted. Provisions for identifying descendants of a deceased Native American and for reburial will follow the protocol set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5( e). If the site is found to be a significant archaeological site, a mitigation program will be prepared and submitted to the Community Development Director for consideration and approval, in conformance with the protocol set forth in Public Resources Code Section 21083.2. d. A final report shall be prepared when a find is determined to be a significant archaeological site, and/or when Native American remains are found on the site. The final report will include background information on the completed work, a description and list of identified resources, the disposition and curation of these resources, any testing, other recovered information, and conclusions. 20. DUSKY-FOOTED WOODRATS: This project will implement the following standard measures to minimize impacts on woodrats and active woodrat nests on the project site. a. PRECONSTRUCTION SURVEY. A qualified biologist will conduct a preconstruction survey for San Francisco dusky-footed woodrat nests within 30 days of the start of work activities. If active woodrat nests are determined to be present in, or within 10 feet of the impact areas, the conditions below (Avoidance and/or Nest Relocation) will be implemented, as appropriate. If no active woodrat nests are present on or within 10 feet of impact areas, no further conditions are warranted. b. AVOIDANCE. Active woodrat nests that are detected within the work area wil be avoided to the extend feasible. Ideally, a minimum 10-foot buffer will be maintained between project activities and woodrat nests to avoid disturbance. In some situations, a small buffer may be allowed if, in the opinion of a qualified biologist, nest relocation (below) would represent a greater disturbance to the woodrats than the adjacent work activities. c. NEST RELOCATION. If avoidance of active woodrat nests within and immediately adjacent to (within 10 feet of) the work areas is not feasible, then nest materials will be relocated to suitable habitat as close to the project site as possible (ideally, within or immediately adjacent to the project site). Relocation efforts will avoid the peak nesting season (February-July) to the maximum extent feasible. Prior to the start of construction activities, a qualified biologist will disturb the woodrat nest to the degree that all woodrats leave the nest and seek refuge outside of the construction area. Disturbance of the woodrat nest will be initiated no earlier than one hour before dusk to prevent the exposure of woodrats to diurnal predators. Subsequently, the biologist will dismantle and relocate the nest material by hand. During the deconstruction process, the biologist will attempt to assess if there are Page 276 juveniles in the nest. If immobile juveniles are observed, the deconstruction process will be discontinued until a time when the biologist believes the juveniles will be capable of independent survival (typically after 2 to 3 weeks). A no-disturbance buffer will be established around the nest until the juveniles are mobile. The nest may be dismantled once the biologist has determined that adverse impacts on the juveniles would not occur. 21.

N:\DEV\CONDITNS\2011\14595 Clearview.doc Page 294 1 July 1, 2025 Joel Paulson, Director Community Development Department Town of Los Gatos 110 E. Main Street Los Gatos, CA 95030 RE: La Rinconada Country Club - Golf Course Modernization Project Architectural & Site Review, Grading & Tree Removal Permit Applications Project Description & Letter of Justification (3rd UPDATE) Dear Mr. Paulson, On behalf of La Rinconada Country Club, I am writing to provide you and the Town of Los Gatos with updated background information about our golf course modernization project and supporting justifications for approval of the applications noted above. As you know, we submitted initial applications to the Town on January 17th, resubmitted updated plans on April 9th and May 23rd, and are now submitting what we anticipate are final plans and supporting documents to undertake a full modernization of the golf course to make it more environmentally sustainable, responsible, and enjoyable for future generations. La Rinconada Golf Course History Founded almost 100 years ago in 1929, La Rinconada is one of the most beautiful properties in the Santa Clara Valley. The Club overlooks the valley from the western foothills to the Santa Cruz Mountains. Members enjoy a beautiful 18-hole golf course amid the local scenery with views across Silicon Valley. In addition to golf, we offer junior golf programs, swimming, fitness, bocce ball, yoga, dining and several social events to our members and the Los Gatos community. Our Club consists of 517 members, more than 250 of whom are Town residents, many for decades. The organization acquired fee title ownership of all the land in 2021 to ensure its continuation as a golf course and asset to the community in perpetuity. We are proud of our continued stewardship of one of the largest open spaces in the Town of Los Gatos and enduring support for the larger community as one of its oldest institutions. The clubhouse regularly plays host to a wide variety of community serving events including many charitable activities such as the Dave’s Avenue School Auction, Los Gatos New Millennium Foundation, Los Gatos Community Foundation, Hope Services, and Los Gatos High School Athletic Hall of Fame Induction. EXHIBIT 5Page 295 2 Property Overview The 118.4 acre property and surrounding area was originally grasslands, then farmland and orchards, without many trees when the Club was originally established. It now includes an 18- hole golf course, driving range, practice greens, maintenance facility, a clubhouse with dining room and event space, a pool and fitness facility, and on-site parking. The property is primarily surrounded by single family homes on larger lots that were built over decades around the golf course, and many of our neighbors are members of the Club as well. We maintain more than 1,200 trees most of which the Club planted beginning in the 1950’s. Over several decades hundreds of trees were added to the site to facilitate course operations. Most of the trees were placed around the perimeter of the course and surrounding play corridors to support the current course layout without consideration for potential challenges their growth over many decades might create. Golf Course Modernization Goals While clubhouse reconstruction and the pool and fitness center addition were completed in the last twenty years, the golf course has not been comprehensively modernized to ensure long term sustainability or improved playability since the early 1990s. Golf courses typically require major rehabilitation after a 30 year period because fairways grasses become compromised and irrigation and drainage, especially around greens and bunkers, begin to fail. Many other courses in the region have gone through similar renovations recently including the Sharon Heights Golf Club in Menlo Park, Palo Alto Hills Country Club in Palo Alto, Palo Alto Municipal Golf Course, Lake Merced Golf Club in Daly City, The Olympic Club in San Francisco, and Pruneridge Golf Club in Santa Clara has announced similar future plans. The Club now desires to modernize the golf course to make it more environmentally sustainable, safer and more fire resistant, improve course quality and playability for the enjoyment of future generations and ensure long term financial viability of the course. One of our primary goals is to continue to dramatically reduce water usage. The additions of new wells, reduction of irrigated turf, and the refurbishment of retention ponds on the course over the last twenty years reduced water consumption by 30% over historic use. However, a full course redesign is required to make further significant progress. Project Description After years of course planning and coordination, our Club’s plan (which has been overwhelming approved and is being paid for by our members) is to completely modernize the 18-hole layout and replant the entire course by replacing fairways with more drought tolerant Bermuda grasses, adding native drought tolerant and climate responsive trees and plantings and installing a more efficient irrigation system that will reduce our water usage by an additional 30%-40%. Paved cart paths are being scaled back to dramatically reduce the amount of impervious surface on the site. We have undertaken a classic renovation aligning with the Golden Age of Golf Course Architecture including a new course alignment for a few holes, refinement of fairway contours on Page 296 3 the other corridors, and new bunkers and greens across the entire course. The golf course modernization project will include modest grading while remaining neutral on site with material, tree removal, new drainage and irrigation, updated contouring, new bunkers and greens, new cart paths, realignment of the entry drive, a native tree replanting program, updated fairways and greens, a 250 square foot restroom/comfort station and other associated course landscaping. Town Development Review Process The golf course property has a General Plan Land Use designation of “Open Space” and Zoning District Designations of “Resource Conservation and R-1:20.” The Club operates under a Conditional Use Permit dated May 11th, 2011 that allows all of the ongoing uses on the property that exist today. Our understanding is that the limited site work we intend to undertake requires Architectural & Site Review, a Grading Permit and Tree Removal Permit to be issued by the Town. There are no changes proposed to the Conditional Use Permit. The Club reviewed the CUP and its conditions of approval prior to submission of the original applications to confirm its ability to continue to comply with all of them through the completion of the proposed project. We want to highlight a few key points for each of applications: Architectural & Site Review (Permit No. S25-005) Minimal above grade work is planned other than a slight realignment of the entrance drive to improve safety with golf play and a small restroom facility for the back 9 holes. No changes are proposed for the driving range, clubhouse, pool/fitness center, parking area, or maintenance facility, and no expansion of the course or membership capacity, events, traffic or intensity of the use is planned or proposed as part of this course modernization project. Conceptual Grading and Future Grading Permit While grading will occur over the entire course to create a new layout and contouring, no deep cut and fill areas or retaining walls are required. Most importantly, grading will balance on site so no major import or export of soil is required to complete the project and will minimize truck hauling. The revised application submittal actually reduces grading by more than 10% from the original plan submitted for review. Construction equipment and materials will be staged on site and construction workers will park on site as well during construction, minimizing any potential neighborhood disruption. The staging area will be near the current 5th hole across the parking lot to the west of the pool and is identified on the revised plan set. Tree Removal Permit (Permit No. T25-013) A critical element of the course modernization project is to reduce water usage by planting new drought tolerant grass and native trees through a reforestation program that are better equipped to thrive in our climate zone over many decades. Many of the trees added to the site over the past 60 years are non-natives that were originally planted to improve playability on the golf course by separating fairways but now hinder the long term success of the course by requiring excessive watering and creating over-shading that prevents grass from growing where play occurs. Over the last few years more than 100 trees have fallen on the course after storms or Page 297 4 failed as a result of drought despite the Club’s considerable efforts to maintain them. Many of the trees, especially the coast redwoods, can only be maintained through extensive watering, which can no longer be supported. The Club’s expectation based on past experience is that most of these non-native trees cannot survive over the long term once regular watering is eliminated as they are not drought-tolerant and will create increasing safety challenges as time goes on. Equally important, the new drought tolerant grass requires more sunlight to grow and many non- native trees are in locations that will prevent new grasses from growing successfully due to narrow fairways, tree heights and excessive shading. The Club currently maintains over 1,200 mature trees across its property. In order to achieve our water reduction goals and course layout plan and address tree health and safety issues, we need to remove a significant number of trees, primarily non-native eucalyptus and coast redwoods which are not drought tolerant, that were planted in the 1950s and beyond. This approach to sustainability is not unique to the Club as similar golf course updates in the region noted earlier and dozens across the state and county have taken similar steps, many with much more significant tree removal included in their modernization efforts. The Club has worked closely with a well-respected, local certified arborist, Trees 360 Degrees, to create a thoughtful and responsible tree protection, disposition and planting plan for the modernization project. The plan will retain and enhance the neighborhood character and the Town’s urban forest by planting more native, drought tolerant and climate responsive trees and avoiding further tree loss. Please see the updated Architectural & Site Review application plan set dated July 1st for more detailed information about the tree inventory and tree protection, disposition and replanting plan we are proposing. The Club had proposed removing 240 mature trees, mostly non-natives, to support its modernization and sustainability goals. In addition the project arborist has identified 47 additional trees that pose potential hazards and recommends their removal as part of the project, and the Town’s consulting arborist has concurred with this assessment. The final number of trees proposed for removal is 287. However, we have a reforestation plan that includes replanting 173 native trees, primarily mature oaks in 24-60 inch boxes that significantly exceed Town size requirements, and we will also pay significant in-lieu fees to support the Town’s urban reforestation program elsewhere in the community. The net result will leave the property with approximately 1,100 trees when the project is complete; however, trees on site will be more sustainable in future and be located in more thoughtful locations that will enable a successful transition to water saving Bermuda grass and an improved course layout. A revised and updated final arborist’s report dated July 1st which addresses all Town staff’s prior comments and the Town’s consulting arborist peer review input is being filed with the updated project plan set. We are also including a separate more detailed explanation of the reasons for the tree removal and replanting plan attached as Exhibit 1. The Club is proposing a unique plan to both replant 173 trees, many of which are larger than required under the City’s tree replacement program, and pay in lieu fees which will likely exceed $75,000 once finally Page 298 5 calculated by Town staff. Exhibit 1 includes a more detailed description of the replanting plan and in lieu fee calculation to credit large box trees for which the current Town formula does not account. It also includes a request for modification and augmentation of the Town’s typical tree fencing materials for developed parcels which do not work effectively on large open space projects like the golf course. The applicant seeks approval for both the updated in lieu fee formula and tree protection plan as part of the A&S and Tree Removal Permit application. CEQA The Club has engaged David J. Powers & Associates, Inc., a well-respected local environmental planning firm, to characterize the project and review it under guidelines established by California Environmental Quality Act and Town to facilitate the Planning Department’s independent CEQA compliance assessment. The study includes separate assessments for site biology, noise and vibration, construction emissions and health risk. The environmental assessment, submitted to the Planning Department in mid-April, concludes that the project qualifies for a categorical exemption for further study under CEQA. Neighborhood Compatibility La Rinconada has operated for decades at its current location in harmony with the neighborhood that has grown up around the course. As we do not plan any expansion of facilities or operations, only a modernization of the golf course, this project will not change the experience our neighbors have with the day to day course operations in any way. Community Benefits As noted above, one of the primary Club goals is to further enhance the environmental sustainability of the golf course. This modernization facilitates the reduction of water usage by 30-40%, saving approximately 30 million gallons annually. It will also allow the Club to be more competitive and financially sustainable over the long term, ensuring preservation of one of the Town’s largest open spaces for generations to come. The project helps maintain the neighborhood’s character and will enhance the Town’s urban forest with a reforestation program focused on planting large box mature native trees. The tree removal plan will also improve course safety and fire safety by removing more hazardous non-native eucalyptus trees. Timeline The Club anticipates the entire project will require the course to be closed for approximately 12- 14 months with a 7-8 month construction schedule and 5-6 month grass grow-in period. The clubhouse and pool and fitness center will remain open during the course construction period. We plan to commence construction in March, 2026 and progress sequentially from hole to hole so only portions of the property will experience construction activity at any single point in time during the 7-8 month construction period. To minimize disruption for our neighbors, modernization activity will last approximately two to four weeks per hole, depending on the specific hole’s design and level of work. Page 299 6 While earth moving activities will occur on the interior of the property, typical construction noise that comes with large structures is not part of the project. As noted above, only the short realignment of the entry drive and the small comfort station on the interior course are being built. Community Outreach The Club has worked cooperatively with the community for years to ensure the golf course remains an asset to the community, and we maintain close and cordial relations with neighbors, many of whom are members. As but one example, the Club just recently partnered with the local neighborhood in coordination with the Los Gatos Police Department and Flock Safety on a neighborhood watch program. We have undertaken an extensive community outreach program with our immediate and nearby neighbors and larger community about the course modernization project. We started by adding an information page to the club’s web site about proposed project and it is also listed on the Town’s current projects web page. Numerous media stories have also covered the proposed modernization efforts. We started neighborhood outreach meetings with one-on-one meetings at the beginning of the year and followed this with neighborhood Open Houses at the Club to discuss the project and address any questions or concerns. We hand-delivered an introductory letter to 83 fence-line neighbors at the same time the original application was filed on January 24th. In March, the Club also invited the entire neighborhood to a series of six (6) small group Open House events. We used the Town provided mailing list of properties within 300 foot radius including over 350 occupant records and mailed invitations to each household via US Mail. In addition to mailing Open House invitations to neighbors within the 300 foot radius, we also sent Open House invitations to 500 additional nearby households via US Mail including Winchester Boulevard, Clearview Drive, Golf Links Drive, Clara Street, Eaton Lane, Zena, La Rinconada Drive, Wimbledon Drive, Newell Ave., Smith Ranch Court, and other streets in the broader neighborhood. Also included in each letter was a link to the Club’s website that includes a dedicated webpage with information about the project. (Copies of these seven (7) neighborhood outreach letters are attached as Exhibit 2.) The Open Houses were held on the following dates: • March 20, 2025, 5-7 PM • March 22, 2025, 12-2 PM • March 25, 2025, 5-7 PM • April 8, 2025, 5-7 PM • April 10, 2025, 5-7 PM • April 12, 20205, 5-7 PM Club leadership met with nearly 50 people as a result of this formal outreach process in addition to many others through day-to-day club operations and interactions with neighbors. A more Page 300 7 detailed summary of our outreach efforts, including names and addresses of those we have met with, can be provided under separate cover should Planning staff wish to review. However, the Club did not receive any negative comments through this outreach process about the proposed project. One fence-line neighbor shared his opinion that coast redwoods can thrive at the golf course. However, most neighbors have been generally supportive of the proposed modernization and sustainability plan in addition to the many members of the Club that live near the course. One member of the community did make contact with Club representatives outside of this outreach process and expressed concern about the number of trees being proposed for removal. We are also aware that a Club member and neighbor has written to the Town on a number of occasions in opposition to the modernization and sustainability plan approved by the full club membership. In addition to her written outreach, she has toured both staff and town officials around the property without notifying Club officials. We have offered to meet with her on over a dozen occasions to review concerns and also try to address factual misunderstandings being made in this correspondence without any success. We look forward to working collaboratively with the Town so the Club can undertake this comprehensive golf course modernization project to make it more environmentally sustainable and enjoyable for future generations. With this fourth submittal, the Club believes the project applications are suitable to be deemed complete. As previously discussed, the Club is eager to have the Planning Commission review the project applications for approval in mid-August to allow sufficient time for building permits to be obtained before construction commences in March 2026. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please contact me directly at 408-402-7468 or via email at akimball@larinconadacc.com. Sincerely, Andy Kimball, PGA General Manager La Rinconada Country Club Page 301 1 Exhibit 1 Golf Course Modernization Project - Tree Removal Permit (Permit No. T25-013) Proposed Tree Removal, Replacement and Protection Explanation TREE REMOVAL Background Information A critical element of the course modernization project is to reduce water usage through a reforestation program by planting new drought tolerant grasses, shrubs and native trees that are better suited for our climate zone. Many of the trees originally planted and subsequently added to the site over the past 60 years are non-natives designed to improve playability on the golf course by separating fairways. A large percent of the introduced trees are eucalyptus and coast redwood. At the time of their planting, consideration was not given to mature tree size and structure, future climate change and excessive water requirements. In recent years more than 100 trees have fallen on the course after storms or died, as a result of drought despite the Club’s considerable efforts to maintain them. Equally important, the new drought tolerant grass requires more sunlight and many of the non- native trees will prevent new grasses from growing successfully due to a combination of factors including narrow fairways, tree heights and density, predominantly redwoods, resulting in excessive shading. The Club currently maintains over 1,200 mature trees across its property including non-tagged trees outside of the project area. To achieve our water reduction goals and course layout plans, we are requesting the removal of approximately 240 trees, primarily non-native eucalyptus and coast redwoods that were originally planted in the 1950s and beyond. In addition, the project arborist has identified an additional 47 trees that may pose future hazards and recommends them for removal as part of the project which, and the Town’s consulting arborist peer review concurs with this assessment. The final number of trees proposed for removal is 287. We are also proposing a reforestation plan to replant 173 trees, primarily native oaks, in 24 to 60-inch boxes, and will also pay more than $75,000 in lieu fees after Town staff makes a final calculation to support the Town’s urban reforestation program elsewhere in the community. (See the calculation table at end of document.) The net result is that a similar number of trees will remain on the course when the project is complete, and tree removal proposed will not change the character of the neighborhood. Better planning and consideration to tree location, along with the planting of more indigenous trees, should allow for a successful transition to the water saving Bermuda grass which will be the predominant grass on the fairways, resulting in a less water dependent golf course. New plantings will also rejuvenate, and contribute to diversification of the urban forest. We anticipate many of the mature trees proposed for removal will likely be lost over time due to the significant water demand that will no longer be provided through irrigation and inability to adapt to our changing climate. Most of the trees proposed for removal are on the interior of the course and Page 302 2 are also required to be removed for the new course layout and to achieve a less water dependent design. Our plan will retain and enhance the neighborhood character and the Town’s urban forest by planting more native, drought tolerant and climate responsive trees to avoid further tree loss. We commissioned an arborist’s report by Trees360 Degrees, a Certified Arborist, who analyzed trees on the property within the project area, including information about the condition of trees proposed for removal as required by the Town’s guidelines. This includes the identification of all protected tree species, size (trunk diameter, canopy height, and spread), health, structure, form, and location on the property. The report assesses the condition of the trees with respect to: (a) disease, (b) imminent danger of falling, (c) structural failure, (d) proximity to existing or proposed structures, (e) structural damage to a building, or (f) a public nuisance caused by a tree. The final updated, revised report is dated July 1, 2025 addresses all Town staff comments and input from the Town’s consulting arborist peer review. Many of the trees, proposed for removal are already in poor condition. Given their location on site, the new course design (being more water efficient and requiring more sunlight to the fairways) will most likely add to their further decline in tree health. Ultimately, if not removed, they would impede the proposed design of the golf course preventing the Club from achieving its water reduction goals and create ongoing safety issues. The trees proposed for removal will not result in a change or decrease in density of tree coverage that is inconsistent with the current golf course as it will maintain over 1,100 trees on site when the project is complete. There will not be a substantial adverse change in the site's aesthetic or biological significance, primarily because the trees proposed for removal will not affect the topography of the course, nor will it trigger erosion, soil loss, diversion or increased flow of surface waters. In addition, the plan primarily avoids removal in potentially sensitive areas on site or along the perimeter near existing residents (unless they are sick, dying a hazard or unsightly), preserving the character of the surrounding neighborhood. Finally, if the trees proposed for removal are not permitted, they will have a significant impact on the property in that they will unreasonably interfere with the golf course’s normal and intended long term use due to the location, size, or condition of the trees which cannot be managed through normal maintenance. The number of trees the golf course can adequately support under similar conditions, including sustainability goals for water reduction and ongoing course operations, is limited and some of the protected trees if not removed will impede the health of other protected native trees on site. This will restrict the economic enjoyment of the property and create a hardship by precluding the Club from achieving its long-term sustainability goals, especially water reduction by planting of drought tolerant grasses, that other courses in the region have undertaken including the Sharon Heights Golf Club in Menlo Park, Palo Alto Hills Country Club in Palo Alto, Palo Alto Municipal Golf Course, Lake Merced Golf Club in Daly City, and The Olympic Club in San Francisco. Page 303 3 Reasons for Removal of Coastal Redwood Trees in Los Gatos Chaparral 1. Ecological Incompatibility and Habitat Disruption Coastal redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens) are native to cooler, fog-rich coastal environments and do not naturally belong in the hot, dry chaparral ecosystem typical of Los Gatos in the golf course area. Their presence disrupts the ecological balance by significantly altering native plant communities. The dense canopy of redwood trees blocks sunlight, changes soil moisture profiles, and creates a cooler and moister microclimate that is unsuitable for many drought- adapted chaparral species. The intent of this project is to reduce reliance on irrigation water by 30% to 40% over current practices. 2. Excessive Water Use in a Drought-Prone Region One of the most compelling reasons for their removal is the excessive water demand of coastal redwoods. In their native foggy habitats, redwoods supplement their water needs by absorbing moisture directly from the air—accounting for up to 40% of their annual intake. However, the area of Los Gatos around the course does not experience coastal fog during the summer. As a result, redwoods planted in this area rely heavily on irrigation to survive. In the context of ongoing drought conditions and increasing water restrictions across California, maintaining these non-native trees is an unsustainable and irresponsible luxury. Their high water demands put strain on the irrigation systems and divert vital resources from native or drought-tolerant turf and landscapes more suitable for chaparral conditions. 3. Resource Heavy Burden and Landscape Management From a landscape management perspective, the redwoods at La Rinconada Country Club require constant attention due to their inappropriate planting locations. Their dependence on irrigation, combined with their rapid growth and large biomass, increases both financial and labor costs for maintenance. Removing these trees would reduce the need for costly water use and maintenance while allowing for a transition to more sustainable, native landscaping that aligns with state and local conservation goals. Reasons for Removal of Eucalyptus Trees in Los Gatos Chaparral The second largest tree species requested for removal, after the coast redwoods, are Eucalyptus, predominantly Eucalyptus camadulensis (river red gum). The river red gum, so accurately named, is a riparian tree in their native Australia and can grow to massive sizes in both height and spread, requiring both large amounts of water and high maintenance requirements in urban settings. These trees are renowned for summer branch drop, which is a concern when the trees are growing in high traffic areas for pedestrians, cars, and carts alike. The river red gum is also a prolific self-seeder and can be problematic for control and invasion of our oak woodland chaparral habitats. Ultimately, the genera of Eucalyptus are also known to be highly flammable due to the oils in the leaves, bark, and wood. When they burn, they create Page 304 4 intense fires releasing oils into the atmosphere which can contribute to the rapid spread of a wildfire. Conclusion While majestic and ecologically significant in their native coastal habitats, coastal redwood trees are ill-suited to the chaparral environment of Los Gatos. We believe their removal, along with the Eucalyptus, is a step toward restoring ecological balance, conserving water resources and managing fire risk effectively. Transitioning to more native or climate-adapted trees will better support the local ecosystem, reduce maintenance costs, water use, and promote long-term sustainability. TREE REPLACEMENT AND REPLANTING PLAN Given the unique requirements for golf operations and the inherent limitations created by the course layout with narrow fairway corridors and mature trees proposed for preservation, it is only feasible to re-plant 173 new trees on the site. To meet the Town’s replacement ratio preferences, the applicant is proposing a tree replacement plan that includes larger 48 and 60 inch boxed trees of primarily native oaks which exceed the Town’s standard 24 and 36 inch boxed tree requirements. See table below that summarizes the applicant’s tree replanting obligation based on tree canopy size and associated replacement plan. The table shows the number of 24 inch boxed trees that would be required for planting to satisfy the Town’s replacement requirements. Because the Town’s tree protection ordinance does not provide 24 inch boxed tree equivalencies for 48 and 60 inch boxed trees, the applicant proposes a logical method for determining 24 inch boxed credits for each of these tree sizes that simply extends the 2:1 ratio for 24 to 36 inch boxed trees for each size. In addition, significant in lieu fees would come with approval of the application to support the Town’s urban reforestation plan in the neighborhood and other areas of the community. Page 305 5 In summary, the applicant is proposing to remove 287 trees, although some may be exempt under the Town’s tree protection ordinance. The applicant seeks approval to replant 173 trees of varying sizes and types as shown on the landscape planting plan sheets, including fifty 48 inch and twenty-three 60 inch boxed oaks, and provide the in lieu fee calculated by the Town to satisfy the balance of the replacement obligation and support the Town’s urban forestry plan. TREE PROTECTION | CHANGE IN TREE FENCING MATERIAL The Club has proposed a detailed tree protection plan which is supplemented by recommendations in the final project arborist report dated July 1, 2025. The applicant also seeks modification and augmentation of the Town’s typical tree fencing material specifications for developed parcels which do not work effectively on large open space projects like the golf course. The tree protection plan sheet identifies locations where orange netting is appropriate as alternative to fencing based on the project’s arborist’s guidance. The project arborist reviewed the final plan and work to be done in and around the areas of the trees and noted their level of proposed impact based on these drawings. The arborist recommends using alternative fencing materials in low-to-no-impact areas and a combination of high-visibility plastic and metal chain link fencing in areas where moderate impacts are predicted. All areas of potential high impact should have the chain link fencing installed, as previously noted in arborist’s report. Due to the scope of the project, with a large number of trees and areas to be fenced, along with the proposed goals to retain as many trees as possible, the use of the orange fencing will aid in making sure the project is executed to meet these goals. The reduction in cost for the material and for the workforce to install and move metal fencing can be transferred to more physical onsite presence of an arborist or appointed staff to ensure that ALL areas are being restricted from access for tree protection. The orange fencing will also allow for the convenience of shifting from area to area as the project moves along with construction will be performed in phases, and access to critical areas that may require supervised work by hand can be more effectively managed. Finally, the bright color will also improve visibility.

Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 1 of 30 SUMMARY The applicant is requesting approval for site improvements to modernize the existing golf course. The golf course is zoned RC — also known as Resource Conservation Zone — an area used at a minimum to enhance open space and preserve wildlife, watersheds, and vegetation. The intent is to return the course to a more sustainable environment by minimizing the number of impervious cart paths and changing to a more drought-tolerant and indigenous landscape, thus reducing water consumption. According to the Town Code Sec. 29.10.0955, “native means any tree that is found in the immediate natural habitat.” As this project relates to trees, there will be a shift to replace many non-native trees with native species naturally occurring in the Los Gatos area. For example, the coast redwood, while the most prominent tree species growing on the course, is not indigenous to the oak woodlands and chaparral areas of Los Gatos, but to the Santa Cruz mountains. Moreover, it is not conducive to the golf course’s specific climate. As the fog belts shift in California along with the high water intake these trees are accustomed to, they are facing a drastic change, and it seems reasonable to reduce the quantity while proposing a remodel. In addition to the redwoods, the Eucalyptus is a non-native tree species that can be a safety hazard due to the risk of falling limbs and fuel potential for fires. The site improvements require a moderate amount of earthwork to be executed, including grade changes for course contours, improved drainage, and an upgrade to the current irrigation system. The modernization project requires some tree removals and replacements; therefore, a tree inventory has been completed. The inventory contains a total of 945 mixed-species trees. In addition to the inventoried trees, naturalized greenbelt areas outside the project scope, which are expected to be unimpacted, exist and have been identified on the Grading and Drainage Plan Sheets C-1.0 to C-1.5 rev. date 03/28/25. Of the 945 trees tagged, 790 are considered Protected trees, 92 are Large protected trees, and 63 fall into the exempt category due to their smaller size, undesirable species, or both. As of the writing of this report, one tree has been removed by Pacific Gas and Electric Company, and is not included in the inventory, leaving 287 proposed for removal and 658 proposed for retention. According to the ordinance requirements and based on the removal requests, the applicant will be required to replace the removal trees with (977) 24-in. boxed trees or a combination of trees and in-lieu payment. The final decision on planting and payment configuration is to be confirmed by the Town arborist. Tree protection for the remaining trees is outlined in this document, and the tree protection fencing locations are identified on the Preliminary TP Plan sheets TP-1 through TP-5 dated 03/28/25 and revised 07/01/25. Final adjustments for tree protection fencing will be made in the field before work Page 310 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 2 of 30 commences. The TP plan sheets shall also include this report outlining the required tree protection recommendations. Appraisal values were calculated for 732 of the 945 trees that are determined to be in Low to High-impact areas. The remaining 213 tagged trees are in zones designated as "Area Not Part of Project," such as the driving range, pool, and clubhouse parking lot. The 732 were appraised for a rounded depreciated value of $13,458,393. INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND La Rinconada Golf and Country Club is a private member club with an 18-hole course in Los Gatos, California. Other amenities include a restaurant, heated spa, swimming pool, gym, yoga studio, and bocce courts. In November of 2024, LRCC tasked Trees 360 Degrees with assessing the trees and the proposed changes required to upgrade the existing golf course and provide a report with our findings and recommendations for tree protection to satisfy the Town of Los Gatos Planning Department requirements. ASSIGNMENT: • This assignment is to provide La Rinconada Golf and Country Club with an arborist report to use for submission to the Town of Los Gatos Planning Department to obtain the necessary permits for the proposed golf course renovation project. • The arborist report includes an assessment of the trees within and adjacent to the proposed project area. It consists of affixing a numbered tree tag to each tree trunk, species identification, trunk diameter measurement, approximate canopy height, and spread, overall condition ratings based on health, structure, and form, and suitability for preservation. The tree tag numbers are for reference on-site and correlate to site plans provided for review. • Provide tree protection guidelines and specifications set forth by the Town of Los Gatos Tree Protection and impact ratings for those trees impacted by the project. • Provide appraised values using criteria collected during our site visits, professional experience, and formulas written by The Council of Tree and Landscape Appraisers in the Guide for Plant Appraisal, 10th Edition, Second Printing. Page 311 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 3 of 30 LIMITS OF ASSIGNMENT • This report and the contents thereof represent the professional opinion of the arborist or appraiser. The arborist or appraiser fee is not contingent upon reporting a specific value or providing predisposed findings. • While the arborist or appraiser cannot guarantee the accuracy or information provided by others nor be held responsible, great care has been taken to seek reliable sources and verify the information obtained as much as possible. • The information in this report is limited to the trees' condition during the time the trees were inspected between November 13th, 2024, and January 13th, 2025. No risk assessments were performed on any of the trees. • The information collected was used to apply condition ratings and was a visual assessment at ground level only. Tree heights and canopy spreads are estimates, while the trunk diameters were measured. There is no guarantee that issues or deficiencies of the examined trees or property will not arise in the future. • The final plans reviewed included the Architectural and Site Review Plans compiled by HMH dated July 1st, 2025). The photos of trees on-site that have been inserted as hyperlinks into the tree inventory were provided by La Rinconada Golf and Country Club. • The sketches or drawings in this report are solely for visual aid and are not to scale or architecturally sound representations. • Unless otherwise required by law, the possession or use of this report – whether it be an original, copy, or electronic version – has no implied right of publication or use, other than expressed in the given assignment of this report unless permitted by the authors. • Unless further contractual arrangements are made, the arborist or appraiser shall not be required to participate in any litigation, attend court, or give testimony due to the contents of this report. • Deletion or alteration of any portion of this document invalidates the report. Page 312 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 4 of 30 PURPOSE AND USE OF THE REPORT This report is intended to identify all the trees within the current boundary of the golf course that could be affected by the proposed renovation project. The report is to be used by La Rinconada Golf and Country Club for submittal to the Town of Los Gatos. This document should be used by the Town Planning Department and Town Arborist to reference existing tree conditions and help satisfy planning requirements while acting as a general protection guide for the trees for all parties involved in the project before, during, and post-construction. OBSERVATIONS TREE INVENTORY All observations made in the field have been recorded in the tree inventory. The inventory consists of trees located on-site and those near project activity on neighboring properties that have been identified as protected from removal unless permitted by the Town of Los Gatos in the Town code ordinance DIVISION 2.–TREE PROTECTION. • Per "Sec. 29.10.0960. – Scope of Protected trees": This includes specifically those trees with a four-inch or greater diameter (twelve and one-half-inch circumference) of any trunk and any stand of trees, the nature of which makes each dependent upon the other for survival. • Per "Sec. 29.10.0955. – Definitions": Large Protected are trees described as any oak (Quercus sp.), California buckeye (Aesculus californica), or Pacific madrone (Arbutus menziesii) which has a 24-inch or greater diameter (75-inch circumference); or any other tree species with a 48-inch or greater diameter (150-inch circumference). For this inventory, only the oaks with a 24-inch diameter or greater and any other species with a 48-inch diameter or greater will apply; there are no buckeyes or madrones to account for. The inventory also considers any exceptions to the provisions, and we have labeled them Exempt. • Per "Sec. 29.10.0970.– Exceptions,": States the following trees are excepted from the provisions of this division and may be removed or severely pruned without Town approval or issuance of a tree removal permit: (2) Any of the following trees that are less than twenty-four (24) inches in diameter (seventy-five (75) inches in circumference): Page 313 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 5 of 30 The inventory details include tree identification of botanical and common names, trunk diameter and canopy measurements, overall condition ratings, appraised value, and recommendations for their care or removal. The information has been formatted in a spreadsheet and submitted along with this report. The diameter at breast height (dbh) is the measurement of the trunk diameter at 4.5ft (54-inches above natural grade) on a single trunk specimen. Multi-trunk trees are measured at the same height, but the individual trunk measurements are combined to calculate the sum of all trunk diameters. This calculation follows the guidelines per the Town code "Sec. 29.10-0955 – Definitions…Diameter." Any removal recommendations are made considering the criteria for removal outlined in "Sec. 29.10.0985. – Determination and conditions of permit". We have determined that the most fitting criteria for this project are listed in the Project Requirements and Protections Measures, subsection Tree Removal Criteria Statement (Criteria per Town code Sec. 29.10.0992) listed on page 23 of this report. Replacement tree quantity and sizes have also been suggested based on what is defined in Town code "Sec. 29.10.0985 – Determination and conditions of permit". A condensed version of this table is viewable on page 27 of this report. Finally, due to the size of this project, photo links have been added to the spreadsheet for use on demand. PLAN REVIEW Specific attention was given to the following plan sheets related to the trees on site in the Architectural and Site Review Plans and the TP sheets revised 07/01/25. • Civil Drainage and Utility sheets C-0.0 to C-1.5 provided by Clifford Bechtel and Associates, LLC • Demolition Plan sheets AO-2, AO-3, and Cart Path Plan sheet AO-11 provided by Todd Eckenrode of Origins Golf Design • Landscape Construction Document sheets, including Tree Protection and Removal Plan Sheets TP1-TP6, Irrigation Plan Sheets IP1-IP6, Planting Plan Sheets PP1-PP-5, and Planting Detail Sheets PD1-PD2 provided by Pinnacle Design Company • Preliminary Entry Road Grading and Drainage, Interim Erosion Control Measures, and Fire Access Plan C4.0-C6.0 provided by HMH. a. Black Acacia (Acacia melanoxylon) e. Red Gum Eucalyptus (E. camaldulensis) b. Tulip Tree (Liriodendron tulipifera) f. Other Eucalyptus sp. (E. spp.) Hillsides only c. Tree of Heaven (Ailanthus altissima) g. Palm (except Phoenix canariensis) d. Blue Gum Eucalyptus (E. globulus) h. Privet (Ligustrum lucidum) Page 314 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 6 of 30 ANALYSIS The data collected for the tree inventory spreadsheets has been used to determine the total number of species on site as well as the breakdown of species variation, identification of native vs. non-native specimens, status of protected trees, the condition rating of trees at the time of inspection, with the overall condition rating based on the lowest rating of the three, the expected level of impact to the trees, number of removals required to fulfill the project requirements and the recommended replacements and protection of retained trees. In addition to the tree inventory, the plan set provided by HMH for the project's overall scope was reviewed, and suggestions were provided to the architecture and design team during the planning phase. The plan set will show all tree protection fencing at a minimum outside the tree canopy driplines and extend fencing around groups of trees where applicable. Contractors shall execute construction activities (e.g., drainage, grading, and mainline irrigation installation) outside the designated tree protection zones. At the time of our review of the revised documents dated July 1st, 2025, consideration of our recommendations appears to have been applied. All other areas that remain a concern have been labeled with an impact rating of Low to High, and a protection measure protocol has been advised at the end of this document. Page 315 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 7 of 30 SPECIES COUNT Per the data collected, there are 945 tree species with a mix of 49 genera. The breakdown of native trees .is based on the indigenous oak woodland and chaparral areas of Los Gatos, with 151 native to 794 non- native trees, the latter being trees that belong to geographical areas outside Los Gatos. SPECIES STATUS The species status is based on the Town of Los Gatos Tree Protection guidelines. The trees that have been inventoried are labeled as one of three categories: Protected = any tree with a dbh of 4 inches or greater, Large Protected = any of the three genera listed in the ordinance Sec. 29.10.0955 with a 24-in dbh or greater plus any tree with a 48- in. dbh or greater, and finally, those that are Exempt. The Exempt trees = exceptions to the rule that are designated species and smaller size dbh listed in Sec. 29.10.0970-Exceptions. These exceptions were previously detailed in this document. The breakdown of the inventoried trees includes 790 Protected, 92 Large Protected, and 63 Exempt. See the chart below for the division of trees proposed for removal vs. retained. 287 PROPOSED REMOVALS 658 RETAINED TREES • 263 Protected Status (261 non-native/2 native) • 527 Protected Status (426 non-native/101 native) • 16 Large Protected (15 non-native/1 native) • 76 Large Protected (29 non-native/47 native) • 8 Exempt (all non-native) • 55 Exempt (all non-native) 151 794 Native Vs. Non-Native Trees Native Non-Native Page 316 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 8 of 30 CONDITION RATING Species age and diversity do not come as a surprise, seeing that the course was initially built in 1929, is closing in on 100 years of operation, and consists of approximately 125 acres. The course is heavily tree-lined with mature specimens of various ages. The condition rating of a tree reflects the species' characteristics and stage of development at the time of inspection. The tree's health, structure, and form are all determining factors. To assess the trees at La Rinconada, we used qualitative terms (Dead, Very poor, Poor, Fair, Good, and Excellent) and percentage ratings (0%-100%), with 100% being Excellent and 0% being Dead. These classifications are based on the rating categories defined in The Council of Tree and Landscape Appraisers Guide for Plant Appraisal, 10th Edition, Second Printing. A summarized version is listed below. Per our assessment, La Rinconada has two hundred and twelve trees in Excellent condition (81%-100%), two hundred and sixty are in Good condition (61%-80%), one hundred and eighty-five are in Fair condition (41%-60%), one hundred and twenty-seven are in Poor condition (21%- 41%), one hundred and fifty-nine are in Very poor condition (6%-20%). Two are dead (0%-5%). Page 317 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 9 of 30 SUMMARIZED VERSION OF CONDITION RATINGS USED FOR ASSESSMENT • 81%-100% = Excellent: Nearly perfect health, defect-free structure, and symmetrical form. • 61%-80% = Good: Normal vigor, no visible pest or disease, twig/foliage dieback minor, the structure is well-developed, defects, if any, are correctable, minor asymmetries of the canopy that do not compromise overall appearance. • 41%-60% = Fair: Reduced vigor with visible damage from pest or disease that is non-fatal, a structure with one or more significant defects that would require multiple treatments over time to correct and form that is asymmetrical from species norm and compromise overall appearance. • 21%-40% = Poor: Low vigor, extensive twig dieback, foliage density, and color are abnormal, pest and disease may be fatal, structure is severely compromised with serious defects that cannot be corrected and failures likely to occur, form is extremely asymmetrical and aesthetics and intended use negatively impacted. • 6%-20% = Very Poor: Appears to be dying, failure is probable, and overall appearance unsightly- detracts from intended use in the landscape. • 0%-5% = Dead: Minimal to no life 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 Number of TreesOvrall Condition Based on Lowest Rating Condition Ratings For LRGCC Trees 22.43% Excellent 27.51% Good 19.58% Fair 13.44% Poor 16.83% Very Poor 0.21% Dead Page 318 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 10 of 30 EXPECTED IMPACT LEVEL The impact level, classified as none, low, moderate, or high, indicates how a tree may be damaged by construction activities. Factors considered are changes in grade, hardscape installation or removal, drainage, trenching, and irrigation at a minimum. The levels of impact are described below. • None/No Impact = No construction activity-tree unaffected. • Low Impact = Construction activity will have minimal impact on the tree. • Moderate Impact= Future structural or health issues could result from the construction activity; precautions must be made to keep the tree from being negatively affected. • High Impact= Removal or alternative measures must be implemented to provide the best possible outcome for the tree's survival because the tree's health and structure are already compromised or will be jeopardized by close construction activities. After reviewing the plans listed above, I have come to the following conclusions on the expected impact of the trees inventoried. Of the 945 trees inventoried, 219 (23.17%) will have no impact (213 of those are excluded from the work area), 193 (20.42%) will have Low Impact, 319 (33.76%) will have Moderate Impact, and 214 (22.65%) will have High Impact. A further breakdown reveals a single tree with no apparent impact, 48 trees with low-impact, 81 moderately impacted, and 157 highly impacted that are proposed for removal. All trees listed in the inventory as Low-High that remain on-site will require monitoring by an ISA-certified arborist when construction activities take place near these trees. The trees designated with high impact have been noted due to multiple construction activities proposed to take place (e.g., cart path installation or removal, change in grade nearby, and storm drain installation). These combined activities may take place on multiple sides of the tree. These trees will require extra care and may necessitate grading or storm drain locations to be 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 1 IMPACT RATINGS 219 No Impact 193 Low Impact 319 Moderate Impact 214 High Impact Page 319 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 11 of 30 adjusted in the field while the work is being executed. The construction crew, architect, or appointed personnel shall work together with the arborist on-site. REMOVALS At the time of this report, 287 trees have been listed for removal. This number was revised from the submitted report dated April 25th,2025. The revised count combines the original 240 and the additional recommended 47 trees that have been identified as HR (Hazard Removal) in the updated inventory spreadsheets. Our professional opinion is that those protected trees, as part of the redevelopment of La Rinconada Golf Course, fall under the criteria guidelines, but are not limited to the following. The trees have low overall condition ratings or poor structure that would pose a threat to the public use of the property as they are dead, dying, severely diseased, decayed, or disfigured and cannot be returned to a healthy and structurally sound condition (Criteria 1). They may be crowding other protected trees of greater significance (Criteria 3). The trees conflict with the proposed development and land improvements, restricting the economic enjoyment of the property (Criteria 4). The removals and replacements will allow the property to transition towards a more native oak woodland landscape like the indigenous oak woodland and chaparral area of Los Gatos (Criteria 10). The accompanying tree inventory spreadsheet should be referenced for details. MITIGATION FOR REMOVALS The tree mitigation requirements are outlined in the Project Requirements and Protection Measures, subsection Tree Replacement Requirements, on page 27. Suggestions for species quantity and size are based on the Town Requirements and listed in the inventory spreadsheet. The number of estimated trees to be replanted is (977) - 24in boxed trees. However, it may be possible to plant a combination of larger-sized trees and/or in lieu payments to meet the required replacements. Per the current Landscape Planting Plan sheet PP-2, 158 trees are suggested for replanting, plus 15 additional trees with planting locations to be finalized in the field. These replacement trees are of 977 Quantity & Size of Replacement Tree 24-in. Page 320 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 12 of 30 various sizes, including 24-in., 36-in., 48-in., and 60-in. boxed specimens; a mix of (121x) oaks, (39x) madrones, and (13x) sycamores. It is highly recommended that the native trees, Indigenous to the area of Los Gatos, be utilized whenever possible (e.g., Quercus douglasii in high, dry, well-draining locations, Q. agrifolia in well-drained areas with moderate water, and Q. lobata in wetter areas that have deep, well-draining, fertile soil that is also preferably dry in summer). The final tree replacement count, size, and species will be designated on any permits issued by the Town of Los Gatos. DISCUSSION & CONCLUSION: For La Rinconada Golf Course's modernization project, the proposed work entails changing the contours and upgrading bunkers, greens, cart paths, fairways, irrigation, and drainage. It is my understanding that all materials will remain on-site. The condition of the trees is mixed with a combined 69.52% Fair to Excellent rating, 30.27% Very Poor to Poor rating, and an insignificant 0.21% for Dead trees. The new look of the course will include the removal of a significant number of non-native trees and the replanting of native trees and shrubs alike. Of the 945 trees, 63 are Exempt, leaving 882 trees classified as protected, with 92 of those Large Protected. Overall, the proposed construction is expected to have some level of impact on all but 219 trees. Of the recommended removals, there is only 1 with no apparent impact, and the following are in areas with various degrees of impact: 48-low impact, 81-moderate impact, and 157-high impact. These trees are either in direct conflict because they are too close to the proposed changes, do not harmonize with the goals of the new course layout, are non-native with high water needs, or are poor specimens with no valuable contribution to warrant their retention, or a combination of the above. Over fifty percent of the trees recommended for removal are non-native trees, including redwood, Eucalyptus, and Ash. One of the goals is to reduce water consumption on the course, and the redwood trees make up the vast majority of the existing species. If the removals are approved, all the remaining trees inventoried must be protected, as indicated in this document. Furthermore, the applicant must replant based on the Town of Los Gatos mitigation requirements. At this time, we have calculated replacement trees based on the canopy size of the removals that have been proposed. The estimated number of trees is 977- 24in boxed, or an approved combination of the two. The Town will determine the total tree quantity, species, size of replacement trees or payment in place of planting once a permit is issued. The plans provided and reviewed appear to be accurate, with details applied for tree protection. All tree protection zones have been designated on the Tree Page 321 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 13 of 30 Protection and Removal Plan sheets TP-1 to TP-6. These sheets were recently updated on 07/01/25 under our consultation and guidance, with details addressing the breakdown of areas and types of fencing proposed. The reasoning for the selected areas and fence material to be used is based on our perceived levels of impact from the construction. The arborist will adjust as necessary and approve all final fencing locations in the field before breaking ground on this project. All construction projects around trees shall promote a positive outcome for the long-term preservation of the tree. The construction process and on-site teams need to understand that tree preservation is a top priority, and the work around them needs to be fluid. Similarly, the landscape installation plans must be reviewed once plant materials and locations are finalized. No large-sized trees/plants at full maturity or large-scale plantings shall occur directly under the canopies of already existing, mature, large-sized trees. It is highly recommended that the plantings be limited to outside the drip line and, where possible, native material with similar irrigation needs be planted. Additionally, special consideration should be given to the large native oak trees (e.g., Quercus douglasii -Blue oaks) that tend to thrive best on seasonal dry, well-drained soils in full sun on slopes and hillsides. Please see the details below in the Project Requirements and Protection Measures section. These details shall be adhered to and copied onto the Tree Protection Plan Sheet Set.

The Items that fall under the guidance of the project arborist shall include, but are not limited to the following. • Verification of tree protection and maintenance: The project arborist shall verify that all pre- construction conditions of approval for the project have been met and are in place before the initial demolition of any structure or earthwork. This includes but is not limited to, tree fencing, trunk buffers if applicable, signage, designated staging areas, and temporary irrigation. Verification will be done by attending a pre-construction meeting. The pre-construction meeting shall consist of all involved parties, at a minimum, the construction superintendent, pertinent personnel, the project arborist, and the Town-appointed consulting arborist. This meeting shall take place before breaking ground on the project. As mentioned above, this meeting will review root pruning protocols, tree protection, maintenance measures, and establishing/confirming staging areas and potential supplemental irrigation around trees. • Regular Monitoring Reports: Once work commences, and any time requiring supervision by the project arborist, it will be documented in writing, reflecting the reasons for the job, how it was executed, and if any further mitigation is required. Namely, all canopy and root pruning shall be performed or overseen by an ISA-Certified Arborist. The project arborist is responsible for visiting the site for progress reports monthly, at a minimum, throughout the project's life unless directed otherwise by the Town arborist. During these site visits, the status of trees, including tree protection measures and maintenance, shall be inspected and commented on in a brief letter/report sent to the Town Arborist via email per Town requirements. Photos may be included where and when deemed necessary. • Special Activity Monitoring Notification: Site personnel shall contact the Project Arborist, at a minimum, 48 hours in advance to facilitate monitoring of proposed activities that may disturb tree canopies or roots. The root disturbance will apply to all areas where roots measuring one inch in diameter or greater are likely to be encountered. When any roots one inch or greater are encountered and authorized to be cut or removed, any work shall be done under the supervision of a certified arborist and executed according to ANSI A300 standards. • Staging & Haul Route: All equipment shall be kept in designated areas as determined by the project arborist. Attention to heavy equipment's impact on remaining trees and their root protection Page 329 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 21 of 30 zones is imperative; therefore, staging shall be limited to the designated area and outside any established fencing. Ultimately, the staging location shall be agreed upon at the on-site meeting with the town-appointed consulting arborist and project arborist before the project breaks ground. Plans indicate that all material will be kept on-site, so no off-haul route designation will be necessary. Should this change, the on-site arborist shall be notified to determine the best haul route to avoid conflicts with the protected trees. • Fencing/Tree Protection Zone (TPZ): The tree protection zone has been defined by the Town of Los Gatos ordinance "Sec. 29.10.0955 – Definitions" and further described in this report as a temporary fenced area that, at a minimum, is set for a tree or group of trees under the tree's dripline, designating "…a restricted activity zone before and after construction where no soil disturbance is permitted unless approved and supervised by the certified or consulting arborist." The dripline, as defined in the same section "Sec. 29.10.0955" is the area under the canopy from the edge of the trunk that consists of the "…distance ten (10) times the diameter of the trunk, or the perimeter of the tree canopy, whichever is greater." Where possible, the TPZ fencing shall encompass as many trees in a group as possible rather than fencing individual trees. Once installed, the TPZ fencing must not be moved or altered without the authorization of the project arborist. In order to be efficient with the tree fencing, installing the TPZ fencing post tree removals would prove beneficial. This would facilitate mulch distribution under the retained tree canopies before TPZ fencing is closed off for construction. Fencing shall be entirely in place and must be inspected and approved by the project arborist or Town-appointed consulting arborist before the construction commences. Fencing shall remain in place until the project's final sign-off inspection. If work is required in the TPZ, then all work in the TPZ shall be under project arborist supervision or Town appointed consulting arborist. No vehicles or equipment, chemical substances, materials, tools, supplies, liquids, wastes, etc., will be dumped or stored within the TPZ. No attachment of wires, signs, or ropes to protected trees. All main irrigation lines shall be located outside the tree's dripline when feasible. See Appendix B for visual details. • Fencing Material for the TPZ: The contractor shall use a combination of fencing materials to provide exclusion zones. Recommended tree protection fencing shall be chain-linked and located as close to these defined locations as possible while allowing room for construction. Installation shall be as follows: Chain link fencing, a minimum of 6ft. in height, mounted on 2in diameter galvanized posts, a minimum of 8ft. long, and pounded 24in. into the ground. Spacing for tube posts must be Page 330 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 22 of 30 less than or equal to 10ft. on center. For larger extended areas, areas far enough away from the construction impact, and based on the level of impacts that may be involved with work around the trees, heavy-duty, plastic orange barrier construction fencing shall be used independently or in combination with the chain link fencing. Please refer to TP-1 through TP-6 sheets dated 07/01/25, for the details. LRCC would prefer to limit the use of chain link fencing to high-impact areas only if the orange netting is not suitable for adequate protection. The project arborist or Town consulting arborist will have final say. See Appendix B for visual details. • Locations: The TPZ are indicated on the Tree Protection map sheets (TP-1 through TP-6) associated with the HMH architectural review dated 03/28/25 has been updated as of 07/01/25. The most recent revision will be submitted to the planning department for review and to fulfill the request for more detail. Exact TPZ fence locations will be finalized prior to construction commencement. Final approval by the project arborist or Town-appointed consulting arborist will determine if TPZ fence lines require adjustment while on-site. • Trunk Protection: In areas where heavy equipment may be close to trees, or the tree protection fencing needs to be opened up for access, and the project arborist determines it, then the use of straw wattles, orange-plastic construction fencing, vertical wood slats, or a combination of the items listed can be wrapped around the tree trunk to avoid any impact damage-See Appendix B. • Signage: Affix TPZ signage to the chain link. These signs must be waterproof, 8.5in. x 11in., and recommend that they be affixed approximately once every 25-50-linear ft of TPZ fenced distance. The sign should state: "Warning – Tree Protection Zone – This fence shall not be removed and is subject to penalty according to Town Code 29.10.1025". The signs should be in English and Spanish (See samples below).

The pruning shall conform to the latest version of ANSI A300 Tree Care Standards for trees, shrubs, palms, and other woody landscape plants – standard practices (pruning) and the accompanying Best Management Practices– Companion publication to the ANSI A300. Before pruning commences, the contractor must call the project arborist to perform the work or meet with the assigned tree care vendor to determine the specific root, branch, or scaffold limb removal under their supervision. When temporary clearances are required, and whenever possible, low-hanging branches should be tied to hold them out of the way. If clearance is not possible by tying branches back temporarily, then the reduction of limbs must be executed by or under the supervision of an approved ISA-certified arborist. Poor pruning practices such as thinning, lions-tailing, shearing, topping, pollarding, or otherwise shall NOT be allowed as they are non-compliant with the most current specifications of ANSI-A300 standards for tree care operations. • Tree Removal Criteria Statement (Criteria per Town code 29.10.0992): As defined, a tree removal permit issued by the Town of Los Gatos is required before removing any protected-size trees. At the time of this report, it is my professional opinion that those protected trees listed for removal as part of the redevelopment of La Rinconada Golf Course are due but not limited to the following (Criteria 1, 3, 4 & 10). (Criteria 1) The trees have low overall condition ratings or poor structure that would pose a threat to the public use of the property as they are dead, dying, severely diseased, decayed, or disfigured and cannot be returned to a healthy and structurally sound condition. (Criteria 3) They may be crowding other protected trees of greater significance. (Criteria 4) The trees conflict with the proposed development and land improvements, restricting the economic enjoyment of the property. (Criteria 10) The removals and replacements will allow the property to transition towards a more native oak woodland landscape like the indigenous oak woodland and chaparral area of Los Gatos. EARTHWORK • Grading and Drainage: All changes to grade shall be outside the TPZ; even minor cut and fill processes can negatively impact trees. Changes of as little as two inches can cause a tree to decline in health and even die long-term. Cutting can fracture and damage roots, and filling can suffocate Page 332 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 24 of 30 them. It is highly recommended, where possible, that the critical root zone be protected. Therefore, wherever possible, any grade changes near the protected tree shall tie into natural grade no closer than 1.5 times (in linear feet) the tree diameter in inches when measured at 4.5ft. (54-inches) from ground level. All changes to surface drainage shall not be altered to redirect existing natural water flows into or out of the TPZ unless it is to improve the overall conditions for the tree and is specified by the arborist on-site. Therefore, the drainage improvements shall consider the natural water table levels and seasonal water distribution within the TPZ areas. For example, if water is being diverted away from a tree that has evolved on-site with that water source, then irrigation measures may need to be considered to replace this deficit and vice versa. • Soil Compaction Mitigation: Wherever possible, mulched wood chips from tree removals on site shall be utilized under the protected trees and, where necessary, inside the fenced-off areas of the Tree Protection Zone (TPZ) and any staging areas if required. This layer of mulch aids in preventing soil compaction and disruption and must be in place before construction begins. Should the contractor need access to or pass through an area of TPZ, for example, between trees, the contractor shall use a bridging technique for the ingress/egress locations. The bridge shall consist of a 4-6in. layer of mulch and 3/4in. plywood or steel road plates laid on top. • Trenching - Utilities/Drainage/Irrigation: Locations of all proposed trenching for pipes and conduits, such as storm drains, area drain boxes, gas, water, sewer, cable, electrical, and landscape irrigation lines, shall all be located outside dripline or TPZ whichever is most feasible and furthest from the trunk of the protected tree. If the offset distance from any trench is less than 15ft., from the edge of any tree trunk, contact the project arborist to consult on alignment options for optimal tree root retention. Furthermore, in cases where soil excavation for the trench is required inside the TPZ, specialized equipment such as an air spade or horizontal boring tool shall be used to protect and allow roots to be readily exposed and worked around or pruned if needed. For all digging activities near trees, the contractor shall be mindful not to do so during hot, dry weather. The root zone should be well watered before and after digging. All exposed roots shall be immediately covered with soil, mulch, or damp burlap and irrigated to ensure they do not dry out. See Appendix B for visual details. • Root Pruning: If one-inch diameter or larger roots are encountered during any site plan-related work, the project arborist shall be contacted immediately so that the soil excavation and root pruning activity can be monitored. Any areas requiring root pruning will be dug out by hand using approved Page 333 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 25 of 30 tools such as an Airspad or small hand tools to expose roots requiring pruning. Roots shall be cut at right angles to the direction of root growth, leaving clean, healthy, undamaged tissue. Furthermore, the pruning shall be done using sharp tools such as professional grade loppers, hand saws, chainsaws, Sawzall, or other appropriate instruments. Root pruning shall occur only under the direct supervision of the project arborist. Furthermore, photographs shall be taken whenever possible to document the before and after images of the pruning cuts. If damage does occur, the areas shall be hand-dug back into clear, healthy root tissue and pruned, as mentioned above. Backfill around roots immediately (same day) or cover roots with several layers (5-10) of wet burlap material to avoid root desiccation, keeping roots moist until final backfill can occur. Always backfill using existing parent soil and never compact soil around the roots. IRRIGATION: • Temporary Irrigation: If areas are to be irrigated on a temporary basis, it will be determined by the Project Arborist, who will contact appropriate site personnel to implement supplemental watering. The supplemental irrigation can be obtained via a garden hose, soaker hose, drip irrigation lines, tow-behind tank, water truck, etc., at a frequency, volume, and duration to be determined by the project arborist. Ideally, the irrigation should be applied within the TPZ and wet the top 2-3ft. of soil. With the addition of water, the General Contractor, sub, or golf course personnel shall maintain records reflecting dates of water application and application methods, volumes, and frequency. These records will be available for inspection by the project arborist as deemed necessary. Reasons for supplemental irrigation include extreme drought conditions, such as dry winters and hot summers, areas that have been routinely irrigated, and the current irrigation is being disrupted. For native species such as the oaks located in naturalized areas, it is essential to replicate as close to standard seasonal weather patterns as they are naturally accustomed to. For example, overwatering or watering too close to the trunk may create unnaturally moist soil conditions detrimental to the tree. If done excessively, over time, this may create an optimal environment for waterborne soil pathogens and harm the trees' health. • Permanent Irrigation for Tree Applications: When designing the final landscape and irrigation installation plans, watering locations and regimes should be carefully considered. Locate the irrigation lines outside of the dripline wherever possible. Completed landscape Page 334 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 26 of 30 and irrigation plan sheets were not reviewed for this initial assignment. However, it was noted that bubblers on flexible black PVC irrigation tubing will be used. If flexible irrigation tubing is also used, it should be pinned directly over grade and buried beneath mulched wood chips. The surface tubing creates an irrigation system with minimal impact on existing tree roots. The Project Arborist shall be supplied with landscape and irrigation plans for review and may recommend changes before final installation. • Tree Canopy Dust Control: To promote optimal diffusion (exchange of gases) through the openings in the leaf surfaces, and only if deemed necessary by the arborist, periodic washing of tree canopies can be performed, provided using either a standard hose on site or via a water truck, ensuring the upper and lower foliage surfaces are accessed. Periodic washing of the tree canopies will likely depend on seasonal rain or drought conditions. TREE DAMAGES, DEPOSITS, PLANTING & FINAL INSPECTION: • Damages: As required per the Town code "Sec. 29.10.1025. – Enforcement – Remedies for violations– subsection (3) Projects under construction": At a minimum, protected trees noted in this report that become damaged beyond repair due to the construction-related activity or removed without permit are subject to a replacement ratio that "…shall be at a greater ratio than that required under the standards outlined in "Table 3-1 – Tree Canopy – Replacement Standard" listed in the Town code "Sec 29.10.0985 – Determination and condition of permit". The Tree Protection Plan Checklist states, "Any protected tree on-site will require replacement according to its appraised value if it is damaged beyond repair as a result of construction." Additionally, and up to the discretion of the Town of Los Gatos, monetary fines may also be applied. • Tree Appraisal: The assessed values in the appraisal spreadsheet provided come from a combination of criteria collected during the site visit, professional experience, and formulas written by The Council of Tree and Landscape Appraisers Guide for Plant Appraisal, 10th Edition, Second Printing 2019, along with the Western Chapter International Society of Arboriculture Species Classification and Group Assignment, 2004. Trees were appraised using the "Cost Approach- Trunk Formula Technique." Formulas are derived by obtaining the basic tree cost and then applying the condition rating and additional depreciation factors, such as external and functional limitations, if appropriate. The final tree appraisal values are rounded depreciated values. For La Rinconada Country Club, that value applies only to the 732 trees listed for removal and protection in Page 335 La Rinconada Country Club 14595 Clearview Dr. Los Gatos, Ca. 95032 Page 27 of 30 the spreadsheets that are within proximity of the project work zone (excludes the 213 trees outside the work zone. • Tree Replacement Requirements: The replacement trees (quantity and species to be determined) are based on the criteria for replacement defined in the table below and found in Town code "Sec. 29.10.0985 Determination and conditions of permit – Table 3-1 Tree Canopy – Replacement Standard". The table below has been modified to represent non-Single-Family Residential Replacement only. Single-Family Residential Replacement details have been excluded from this document. The final determination of tree replacement will be established as part of the permit approval. Tree Canopy – Replacement Standard Canopy Size of Removed Tree1 Replacement Requirement2,4 10 feet or less Two 24-inch box trees More than 10 feet to 25 feet Three 24-inch box trees More than 25 feet to 40 feet Four 24-inch box trees or Two 36-inch box trees More than 40 feet to 55 feet Six 24-inch box trees or Three 36-inch box trees Greater than 55 feet Ten 24-inch box trees or Five 36-inch box 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… 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 but is required for Hillside properties, as per section 29.10.0987, Special Provisions Hillsides, with tree species per Hillside Development Standards and Guidelines Appendix A" (Town of Los Gatos, CA Division 2. Tree Protection Ordinance 2022). • Final Inspection: A final inspection by the Town Arborist at the end of the project is mandatory to ensure all tree replacements have been made. It is recommended that tree planting occur at the end of the project upgrades or when the time comes to implement the landscaping phase to ensure their establishment's success and avoid unnecessary damage.

Per the request of the Town of Los Gatos, I have adjusted the tree protection inventory spreadsheets to include the extra trees proposed for removal based on their overall conditions relating to being potentially hazardous, located in high target areas, actively failing, in the process of dying, or not suitable for their current environment. I have noted these trees with an HR to represent Hazard Removal. These additional trees have been included throughout the revised documents dated 07/01/25. They are reflected in the inventory spreadsheet as HR, to represent Hazard Removal, and included in the representative graphs as a part of this updated report (e.g., calculation for the replacement trees and native vs. non-native species). Furthermore, they have been added to the Architectural and Site Review Plans with a designated symbol to distinguish from the previous removals requested. Below are the tree species count, botanical and common names, and associated tree tag numbers. Please refer to the accompanying inventory spreadsheet for details.

We have provided consultation on the fencing locations and materials, and post review, feel that the location of the orange-colored high-density polyethylene fencing with 3.5in. x 1.5in. openings in the locations suggested on the map are sufficient. The decisions were based on reviewing the plans and work to be done in and around the areas of the trees. The level of proposed impact (none, low, moderate, and high) was noted and used to make the abovementioned decisions. We recommend using alternative fencing materials in low-to-no-impact areas and a combination of high-visibility plastic and metal chain link fencing in areas with predicted moderate impacts. All areas of potential high impact shall have the chain link fencing installed, as previously noted in the report provided and dated April 25th, 2025. Due to the scope of the project, with a large number of trees and areas to be fenced, along with the proposed goals to retain as many trees as possible, the use of the orange fencing will aid in making sure the project is executed to meet these goals. The reduction in cost for the material and for the workforce to install and move metal fencing can be transferred to more physical on-site presence of an arborist or appointed staff to ensure that ALL areas are being restricted from unnecessary access and ensuring tree protection. The orange fencing will also allow for the convenience of shifting from area to area as the project moves along, as construction will be performed in phases, and access to critical areas that may require supervised work by hand can be more effectively managed. Finally, the bright color will also improve visibility.

Form and structure are good but significant amount of dead limbs throughout. Large, old tree located in the center of the fairway. Canopy shows signs of severe decline, likely receiving too much water (blue oaks like soils to dry out). Superintendent mentioned use of growth regulator around this tree-may be the reason for the recent flush of epicormic sprouts. Large sprawling tree, good overall condition. Appears to have an active beehive in hollow on the east side, scaffold limb. There is also a large hollow on the main trunk, south side. Form is very asymmetrical due to pruning. Small stature tree, low and sprawling in its form. Overhangs cart path leading to the maintenance shop-at very edge of path. Thin form with downward growth. Multi trunk tree with bark inclusions and dieback in canopy. Small central leader that has snapped off-Poor specimen. Large scaffold limb failures throughout. Overall form is tall and thin due to competition from surrounding trees. Tree is under the size requirement for removal permit. Codominant top at approx. 5ft., with large sized deadwood, branch failures throughout and a notable scaffold failure on the west side. Overall the foliage appears sparse. Large, twin trunk tree at the edge of the cart path. Codominant and included from 1-4ft. Canopy is very asymmetrical. Tree has multiple large branch failures throughout, including the whole top of tree-structure is compromised. Main stem failure on the west side at approximately 40ft. A secondary leader has taken over apical dominance. Growing towards the east. Large tree that survived storms were adjacent trees have failed. Evidence of end weight reduction throughout-Form and structure are both good. Tree with multiple large failures at the base and in upper canopy. More than half the tree has failed from ground level leaving a small scaffold branches damaged throughout. Likely a result of adjacent tree failures in recent years storms. Good looking tree that has lost a couple of large scaffold limbs. Other than that, the tree appears to be healthy, with good structure and form. Typical of species left alone.

The arborist’s report was provided by Trees 360 Degrees dated April 25, 2025. The report is thorough, complete, and contains all the required information regarding the project. During the site assessment the following questions came up: 1.Tree protection fence materials and potentially the locations and timing. The report states the following: For larger extended areas or areas far enough away from construction impact, it is recommended that heavy-duty, plastic orange barrier construction fencing be used. LRCC would prefer to limit the use of chain link fencing to high-impact areas only if the orange netting is not suitable for adequate protection. The project arborist or Town consulting arborist will determine this on a case-by-case basis. The ordinance states the following: Sec. 29.10.1005. Protection of trees during construction. (a)Protective tree fencing shall specify the following: (1)Size and materials. Six (6) foot high chain link fencing, mounted on two-inch diameter galvanized iron posts, shall be driven into the ground to a depth of at least two (2) feet at no more than ten-foot spacing. For paving area that will not be demolished and when stipulated in a tree preservation plan, posts may be supported by a concrete base. It may be possible to provide a scaled back tree protection material but this will need to be discussed and approved by planning. One option is to have regular monitoring of the fence in lieu of more sturdy fence. Again, since this is in conflict with the ordinance approval for the particular areas and materials will need to be reviewed and approved.

Introduction to Categorical Exemptions The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines contain classes of projects that have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and are, therefore, exempt from the provisions of CEQA. CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 – 15333 constitute the list of categorically exempt projects and contain specific criteria that must be met in order for a project to be found exempt. CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities Class 1 Categorical Exemptions, and 15302, Replacement or Reconstruction Class 2 Categorical Exemptions set forth conditions for projects which replace or reconstruct existing facilities that may be found categorically exempt. Additionally, CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 includes a list of exceptions to exemptions, none of which may apply to a project in order for it to qualify for a categorical exemption (i.e., if an exception applies, a project is precluded from being found categorically exempt). The Town of Los Gatos, serving as the Lead Agency, is completing environmental review for the La Rinconada Country Club Modernization project (“project”) in compliance with CEQA, the CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations Section 15000 et. seq.), and the regulations and policies of the Town of Los Gatos. This Memorandum describes the proposed project and provides analysis and evidence to support a determination by the Town of Los Gatos that the project would be eligible for a Categorical Exemption under CEQA. II. Existing Conditions La Rinconada Country Club was founded by A.P. Giannini in 1928. The first nine holes were completed in 1928 and the second nine later in 1929. Since 1929, modest improvements have been made to the golf course. The Country Club property is accessed by a driveway connecting to Clearview Drive. This access point leads into a 171-space parking lot which serves the clubhouse, y,//dϵPage 407 2 1871 The Alameda, Suite 200 x San José, CA 95126 x Tel: (408) 248-3500 x www.davidjpowers.com country club facilities and golf course. The country club, including the golf course and associated amenities, covers approximately 118.4 acres and is surrounded by residential neighborhoods. The country club also borders the Rinconada Water Treatment Plant on the west. The location and extent of the project area can be seen in Figure 1, 2, and 3.

The adjusted course layout would leave 17 of the 18 holes in their current locations. The only hole location that would be modified would be the 13th hole which would be slightly reoriented on the south side of the project site. All existing on- site structures would remain unchanged and no changes are proposed for the driving range, clubhouse, pool/fitness center, parking area, or maintenance facility. Minimal above grade work is planned other than a slight realignment of the entrance drive to improve safety with golf play and a small, approximately 250 square foot, restroom facility for the back 9 holes. Upon project completion, the Country Club would continue to operate one 18-hole golf course on the property and the membership numbers would remain unchanged. The proposed project would not expand or increase the use of any facilities at La Rinconada Country Club. The proposed project would not alter ingress and egress to the property. Irrigation System and Cart Paths As part of the proposed project, the irrigation system would be modernized, on-site drainage systems would be upgraded, and the fairway grass would be replaced with a modern hybrid Bermuda grass that requires 30-35 percent less irrigation water than the current course grass which would reduce irrigation water consumption to approximately 30 million gallons per year. In addition to the turf change and drainage upgrades, the proposed project would replace most of the existing golf course cart paths with reduced footprint cart paths. Replacement of the cart paths would reduce impervious surfaces on the golf course by approximately 70 percent. Tree Removal There are approximately 1,200 trees on the property, most of which are non-native species planted by the Club over the past 50 years. Recently introduced coast redwoods and eucalyptus trees would be replaced by native oaks as a part of the proposed project. The plan would remove approximately 240 trees, most of which are redwoods and eucalyptus. The proposed project would replace the trees removed at a one-to-one ratio, planting approximately 1ϳϯnative tree species on the golf course and payment of in-lieu fees for the remaining tree replacement. Most of the trees proposed for removal are on the interior of the course; only approximately 30 are on the perimeter near homes. This would restore the property to a more natural state similar to the late 1920’s. Construction As part of construction activities, grading would be balanced on-site with approximately 52,780 cubic yards of cut and fill. The area of disturbance is shown in Figure 4, Project Disturbance Area. No Page 412 7 1871 The Alameda, Suite 200 x San José, CA 95126 x Tel: (408) 248-3500 x www.davidjpowers.com soil would be imported to or exported from the site. Construction of the proposed project is estimated to take approximately seven to eight months to complete and is scheduled to begin in early March of 2026. The proposed project would implement standard soil management procedures to limit dust and debris on and around the project site, refer to Condition of Approval in Section IV.(c), Air Quality Effects, below. Construction equipment and materials would be staged on site and construction works would park on site as well during construction.

Environmental Review The purpose of this section is to document whether any of the exceptions listed in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply to the project, and assess the project’s eligibility for a Categorical Exemption from CEQA under Section 15301, Existing Facilities Class 1 Categorical Exemptions, and 15302, Replacement or Reconstruction Class 2 Categorical Exemptions. Section 15300.2 – Exceptions (a) Location. Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 are qualified by consideration of where the project is to be located – a project that is ordinarily insignificant in its impact on the environment may in a particularly sensitive environment be significant. Therefore, these classes are considered to apply all instances, except where the project may impact on an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted pursuant to law by federal, state, or local agencies. This exception only applies to Class 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 exemptions. The proposed project is categorically exempt under Class 1 and/or Class 2; therefore, this exception is not applicable to the project under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2(a). (b) Cumulative Impact. All exemptions for these classes are inapplicable when the cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place, over time is significant. The La Rinconada Country Club has undergone minor revisions for the last 100 years since it was constructed. The timing of these changes has not been close chronologically, therefore, the impacts associated with each modification to the country club would be far enough apart in time to not compound with prior projects. Additionally, the La Rinconada Country Club does not anticipate additional renovations in the near future which may result in cumulative impacts. For these reasons, the proposed modernization of the La Rinconada Country Club would not result in cumulative impacts. (c) Significant Effect. A categorical exemption shall not be used for an activity where there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. Air Quality Effects The information in this section is based in part on the Construction Emissions and Health Risk Assessment completed by Illingworth & Rodkin, Inc. This report, which evaluates project emissions to confirm the project complies with General Plan Policy ENV-8.1: Air Quality Standards noted below, is included for reference as Appendix A of the document. The Town of Los Gatos has the following General Plan policies that are applicable to the project. Page 415 10 1871 The Alameda, Suite 200 x San José, CA 95126 x Tel: (408) 248-3500 x www.davidjpowers.com Policy ENV-8.1: Air Quality Standards. Federal, State, and regional air quality goals, policies, standards, and requirements shall be addressed during environmental review for local land use and development decisions. Applicable standards or requirements, if not already in the proposed plans, shall be incorporated as conditions of approval. Policy ENV-8.9: Air Pollution Impacts During Construction. Require project proponents to prepare and implement a construction management plan that incorporates Best Available Control Measures and all best management practices in accordance with the Air District standards to reduce criteria pollutants. General Plan Policy ENV-8.9: Include Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) basic BMPs to control dust and exhaust during construction. During any construction period ground disturbance, the applicant shall ensure that the project contractor implement measures to control dust and exhaust. Implementation of the measures recommended by BAAQMD and listed below would reduce the air quality impacts associated with grading and new construction to a less-than- significant level. x All exposed surfaces (e.g., parking areas, staging areas, soil piles, graded areas, and unpaved access roads) shall be watered two times per day. x All haul trucks transporting soil, sand, or other loose material off-site shall be covered. x All visible mud/dirt track-out onto adjacent public roads shall be removed using wet power vacuum street sweepers at least once per day. The use of dry power sweeping is prohibited. x All vehicle speeds on unpaved roads shall be limited to 15 miles per hour (mph). x All roadways, driveways, and sidewalks to be paved shall be completed as soon as practicable. Building pads shall be laid as soon as practicable after grading unless seeding or soil binders are used. x All excavation, grading, and/or demolition activities shall be suspended when average wind speeds exceed 20 mph. x All trucks and equipment, including their tires, shall be washed off prior to leaving the site. x Unpaved roads providing access to site located 100 feet of further from a paved road shall be treated with a six - to 12-inch layer of compacted layer of wood chips, mulch, or gravel. Air Quality Construction Emissions Based on the Construction Emissions and Health Risk Assessment, air pollutant emissions associated with project construction were predicted using appropriate computer models. In addition, potential project construction health risk impacts and the impact of existing toxic air contaminant (TAC) sources affecting the existing nearby sensitive receptors (e.g., residents) were evaluated. The air pollutants associated with the construction period include reactive organic gases (ROG), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter from exhaust (PM2.5 and PM10). The analysis was conducted following guidance provided by the BAAQMD, the results of which are summarized below in Table 1. Page 416 11 1871 The Alameda, Suite 200 x San José, CA 95126 x Tel: (408) 248-3500 x www.davidjpowers.com The proposed project would require approximately seven months of grading and excavation work (161 days) that would disturb 87.76 acres of ground area. Construction activities would require the operation of heavy construction machinery and would disturb uncovered soil which would create air quality contaminants for the entirety of the construction period. Average daily construction emissions were estimated for the proposed project based on the equipment and operations required for the project. These are summarized in Table 1 below. Table 1 Construction Period Air Pollutant Emissions Year ROG NOx PM10 Exhaust PM2.5 Exhaust 2026 Construction Emissions (Tons) 0.15 1.32 0.04 0.04 2026 Average Daily Emissions (lbs/day) 1.86 16.35 0.50 0.46 BAAQMD Thresholds (pounds per day) 54 54 82 54 Exceed Threshold No No No No Source: Illingworth& Rodkin, Inc. La Rinconada Country Club Redesign Construction Emissions & Health Risk Assessment. February 7, 2025 Based on the emissions expected for the proposed project, the construction activities would not exceed BAAQMD air quality impact thresholds for criteria air pollutants, and therefore the project complies with Policy ENV-8.1, noted above. The proposed project, like virtually all projects which involve ground disturbance, would also generate dust in the form of PM10 and PM2.5 through disturbance and hauling of soils around the site. The project would implement the following Condition of Approval to comply with Policy ENV-8.9 which requires standard best management practices to limit fugitive dust pollutants. Condition of Approval During any construction period ground disturbance, the applicant shall ensure that the project contractor implements measures to control dust and exhaust. Implementation of the measures recommended by BAAQMD and listed below would reduce the air quality impacts associated with grading and new construction to a less-than-significant level. x All exposed surfaces (e.g., parking areas, staging areas, soil piles, graded areas, and unpaved access roads) shall be watered two times per day. x All haul trucks transporting soil, sand, or other loose material off-site shall be covered. x All visible mud/dirt track-out onto adjacent public roads shall be removed using wet power vacuum street sweepers at least once per day. The use of dry power sweeping is prohibited. x All vehicle speeds on unpaved roads shall be limited to 15 miles per hour (mph). Page 417 12 1871 The Alameda, Suite 200 x San José, CA 95126 x Tel: (408) 248-3500 x www.davidjpowers.com x All roadways, driveways, and sidewalks to be paved shall be completed as soon as practicable. Building pads shall be laid as soon as practicable after grading unless seeding or soil binders are used. x All excavation, grading, and/or demolition activities shall be suspended when average wind speeds exceed 20 mph. x All trucks and equipment, including their tires, shall be washed off prior to leaving the site. x Unpaved roads providing access to site located 100 feet of further from a paved road shall be treated with a six - to 12-inch layer of compacted layer of wood chips, mulch, or gravel. x Publicly visible signs shall be posted with the telephone number and name of the person to contact at the lead agency regarding dust complaints. This person shall respond and take corrective action within 48 hours. The Air District’s General Air Pollution Complaints number shall be visible to ensure compliance with applicable regulations. Therefore, the proposed project would not exceed BAAQMD thresholds for criteria pollutants or fugitive dust and, by implementing the standard measures in Policy ENV-8.9, would have a less than significant effect. Air Quality Health Risk Effects During construction of the proposed project the increase in diesel particulate matter (DPM) and other PM2.5 can result in increased lifetime cancer risk and other health hazards. The construction health risks were modeled for their impacts on existing residences surrounding the site and Roxbury Elderly Care, located west of the site near the northern edge of the golf course. The effects were modeled for impacts on all receptor types (i.e., third trimester, infants, children, and adults). The total modeled DPM was calculated to be 0.04 tons and the fugitive dust was found to be less than 0.01 tons. Based on the modeling conducted for these emissions, the expected construction risk impacts are shown in Table 2 below.

Noise and Vibration Effects The information in this section is based in part on the Construction Noise and Vibration Assessment completed by Illingworth & Rodkin, Inc. This report is included for reference as Appendix B of the document. Noise Effects The Town of Los Gatos Code of Ordinances Section 16.20.035 limits construction activities to the hours of 8:00 am to 6:00 pm on weekdays and between the hours of 9:00 am and 4:00 pm on Saturdays. No construction is permitted on Sundays or holidays. Section 16.20.035 also states that at least one of the following conditions shall be met: x construction noise limits of 85 dBA at a distance of 25 feet for any single piece of equipment and x noise level at any point outside of the property plane of the project site is limited to 85 A- weighted sound level (dBA) Construction of the proposed project is estimated to take approximately seven to eight months to be completed, beginning in March of 2026. Construction would progress across the country club from hole to hole, and only portions of the property will experience construction activity at any single point in time. In general, the construction activity would last approximately two to four weeks per hole, depending on where the hole is located. The proposed hours of construction are 8:00 am to 6:00 pm on weekdays and 9:00 am to 4:00 pm on Saturdays. No construction would occur on Sundays or holidays. The construction activities that would be a part of the proposed project include earth-moving activities with heavy equipment and hauling of primarily landscape construction materials. Based on this activity, the proposed project would be expected to generate maximum noise levels of 70 to 90 dBA at a distance of 50 feet. A summary of the expected noise levels at receptors within 25 feet of the construction activities is summarized below in Table 3. Page 419 14 1871 The Alameda, Suite 200 x San José, CA 95126 x Tel: (408) 248-3500 x www.davidjpowers.com Table 3 Construction Noise Levels from Heavy Equipment at 25 feet Phase Number of Workdays Construction Equipment (Quantity) Maximum Noise Level dBA Lmax Average Noise Level dBA Leq Site Preparation 120 Tractor/Loader/Backhoe (3)a 90 87 Grading/ Excavation 150 Excavator (10) a Tractor/Loader/Backhoe (3) a 87 90 88 Paving 5 Paver (1)a Paving Equipment (1) Roller (1) Tractor/Loader/Backhoe (3) a 83 83 86 90 87 a Denotes two loudest pieces of construction equipment per phase. Source: Illingworth& Rodkin, Inc. La Rinconada Country Club Golf Course Modernization Project Construction Noise and Vibration Assessment. January 30, 2025 As shown in Table 3, average construction noise levels would range from 87 to 88 dBA Leq when the two loudest pieces of construction equipment operate simultaneously, 25 feet from an individual receptor. These predicted noise levels represent worst-case conditions, and under these conditions, noise levels would be reduced to 84 to 85 dBA Leq if the two loudest pieces of construction equipment per phase operate 35 feet or further from sensitive receptors. Therefore, the construction would conflict with the policy requirement to keep noise below 85 dBA outside the property plane as some places on the 8th, 16th, and 18th holes for the golf course if the two loudest pieces of equipment were operating simultaneously. Therefore, with the following conditions of approval, included in the project, the proposed project would further reduce noise effect during construction. These actions are standard construction measures applied to most construction projects in urban areas. Conditions of Approval x Construction activities shall be limited to the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 pm on weekdays and between the hours of 9:00 am and 4:00 pm on Saturdays. No construction is permitted on Sundays or holidays. x Equip all internal combustion engine-driven equipment with intake and exhaust mufflers that are in good condition and appropriate for the equipment. x Prohibit unnecessary idling of internal combustion engines. x Locate stationary noise-generating equipment, such as air compressors or portable power generators, as far as possible from sensitive receptors as feasible. If they must be located near receptors, adequate muffling (with enclosures where feasible and appropriate) shall be used to reduce noise levels at the adjacent sensitive receptors. Any enclosure openings or venting shall face away from sensitive receptors. Page 420 15 1871 The Alameda, Suite 200 x San José, CA 95126 x Tel: (408) 248-3500 x www.davidjpowers.com x Locate construction staging areas at locations that will create the greatest distance between the construction-related noise sources and noise-sensitive receptors nearest the project site during all project construction. x Locate material stockpiles, as well as maintenance/equipment staging and parking areas, as far as feasible from residential receptors. x Designate a "disturbance coordinator" who would be responsible for responding to any complaints about construction noise. The disturbance coordinator will determine the cause of the noise complaint (e.g., bad muffler, etc.) and will require that reasonable measures be implemented to correct the problem. Conspicuously post a telephone number for the disturbance coordinator at the construction site and include in it the notice sent to neighbors regarding the construction schedule. The implementation of these reasonable controls would minimize disturbance at existing noise- sensitive receptors in the project vicinity. Additionally, the majority of residences adjacent to the project site are set back further than 35 feet from any work areas and only a small area of the back yards would be exposed to elevated noise levels near the 8th, 16th, and 18th holes for the golf course. Considering that the construction activity would last approximately two to four weeks per hole, and less than one construction season in total, and that the majority of construction would occur more than 35 feet from nearby receptors, the potential temporary exceedances of the Town’s Code of Ordinances for a single piece of equipment over 85 dBA would result in a less than significant effect. Vibration Effect The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) recommends a vibration limit of 0.5 in/sec peak particle velocity (PPV) for new residential and modern commercial/industrial structures, a vibration limit of 0.3 in/sec PPV for older residential structures, and a vibration limit of 0.25 in/sec PPV for historic buildings. The Town of Los Gatos recognizes a structure as historic if any one of the following apply: x Any structure / site that is located within a historic district x Any structure / site that is historically designated within the LHP overlay x Any primary structure constructed prior to 1941, unless the Town has specifically determined the structure has no historic significance or architectural merit. Based on the Town’s definition of historic structures, this analysis uses a vibration limit of 0.25 in/sec PPV to conservatively assess the potential for vibration impacts because the clubhouse and homes in the surrounding area could be old enough, i.e. prior to 1941, to be considered historic structures. Based on the construction equipment planned to be used for the proposed project, the vibratory levels in Table 4 would be expected.

La Rinconada Country Club Golf Course Modernization Project Construction Noise and Vibration Assessment. January 30, 2025 The proposed project could exceed vibratory impact levels if vibratory rollers are used within 20 feet of vibration sensitive buildings built before 1941. To reduce any potential vibration effects the following Conditions of Approval are expected for the proposed project. Condition of Approval x Smaller equipment (less than 18,000 pounds) shall be used near the property lines adjacent to the residential buildings to minimize vibration levels. For example, a smaller vibratory roller similar to a Caterpillar model CP433E vibratory compactor could be used when compacting materials within 25 feet of vibration-sensitive buildings. x Small tractors/loaders/backhoes shall be used within 10 feet of vibration-sensitive buildings instead of excavators. x Designate a Disturbance Coordinator responsible for registering and investigating claims of excessive vibration. The contact information of such person shall be clearly posted on the construction site. Based on the distance of residential structures from the edge of the golf course and the location of construction activities on the project site, the vibratory equipment would not be used for long periods of time near any structure which could be damaged by vibration along the 8th, 16th, and 18th holes of the golf course. Therefore, by implementing the best management practices above, primarily around the clubhouse area, the proposed project would result in less than significant vibratory effect during construction. Biological Effects The proposed project would disturb up to approximately 87.76 acres of vegetated areas landscaped for use as a golf course. This includes non-native grasses covering a majority of the area and trees lining the golf course hole boundaries. The site is not mapped as habitat for special status plants or Page 422 17 1871 The Alameda, Suite 200 x San José, CA 95126 x Tel: (408) 248-3500 x www.davidjpowers.com animals, and does not contain regulated habitats, i.e. riparian areas or wetlands or waters of the US or the state, as the ornamental ponds are man-made features subject to regular irrigation and maintenance. The proposed project would remove and replace this landscaping which would disturb any animals that are using the trees or other landscaped areas as habitat. Additionally, the proposed project would be required to comply with the Tree Replacement Standards identified in Table 3-1 of the Town of Los Gatos Zoning Regulations. The proposed project would remove up to 240 trees across the golf course area. The full list of trees removed as a part of the project is included in Appendix C. To protect birds that may be nesting in the trees, the project would implement standard nesting survey requirements as required by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and California Department of Fish and Wildlife Code. These requirements are summarized below. Through inclusion of this standard condition of approval the project would avoid negative effects on birds. Condition of Approval x Construction shall be scheduled to avoid the nesting season to the extent feasible. The nesting season for most birds, including most raptors, in the San Francisco Bay Area extends from February 1st through August 31st. If it is not possible to schedule construction and tree removal between September 1 and January 31, then pre-construction surveys for nesting birds shall be completed by a qualified ornithologist to ensure that no nests are disturbed during project implementation. This survey shall be completed no more than 14 days prior to the initiation of grading, tree removal, or other construction activities during the early part of the breeding season (February through April) and no more than 30 days prior to the initiation of these activities during the late part of the breeding season (May through August). During this survey, the ornithologist shall inspect trees and other possible nesting habitats within and immediately adjacent to the construction area for nests. If an active nest is found sufficiently close to work areas to be disturbed by construction, the qualified ornithologist, in consultation with California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), shall determine the extent of a construction-free buffer zone to be established around the nest to ensure that raptor or migratory bird nests shall not be disturbed during project construction. (d) Scenic Highways. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway. This does not apply to improvements which are required as mitigation by an adopted negative declaration or certified EIR. Page 423 18 1871 The Alameda, Suite 200 x San José, CA 95126 x Tel: (408) 248-3500 x www.davidjpowers.com There are no officially designated state scenic highways in the project area. The nearest officially designated state highway is State Route 9, which is located approximately 1.25 miles southwest of the project site and is not visible from the project site.1 The project, therefore, would not damage scenic resources within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway, and no exception to the exemption applies under 15300.2(d). (e) Hazardous Waste Sites. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code. The provisions in California Government Code Section 65962.5 are commonly referred to as the “Cortese List”. Properties considered to be on the Cortese List include current and closed leaking underground storage tank (LUST) case sites, in addition to sites with other hazardous conditions. The California Government Code does not provide a provision for the removal of an affected property from the Cortese List. Therefore, even properties with closed LUST cases in which no further work is required are still considered to be on the Cortese List. The project site is recorded on the Cortese List Geotracker database for two closed LUST cases, which are associated with an area of the site in which no work is proposed. Due to the case closure, and to confirm if there are any hazards present on the portion of the site where the proposed golf course modernization would occur, Cornerstone Earth Group prepared a memorandum to evaluate the status of the closed LUST cases and the potential for the proposed project to disturb areas covered by the closed LUST cases.2 Based on the case information, a 500-gallon gasoline underground storage tank (UST) was removed from the Site in 1993. In 1998, an additional 500-gallon diesel UST and a 1,000-gallon gasoline UST were removed. All three USTs were located at the golf course maintenance facility on the furthest southern portion of the project site, a small triangular area southeast of the 16th and 17th holes that is not included within the area of proposed modernization work. As a part of the case closure, sampling was conducted at the location of each of the three USTs. Soil and groundwater samples detected only low concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons, diesel range petroleum hydrocarbons, and xylene. These detected concentrations did not exceed current residential or commercial environmental screening levels (ESLs). The associated LUST cases were closed by the Santa Clara Valley Water District (SCVWD) in 1997 and 1998. While the LUST cases technically remain on the Cortese list for record keeping, the maintenance facility area which includes the area of the closed LUST cases, is not part of the golf course renovation plan. In addition, based on the Grading Plan, no earthwork activities are planned near 1 California Department of Transportation. “California State Scenic Highway System Map”.

Page 424 19 1871 The Alameda, Suite 200 x San José, CA 95126 x Tel: (408) 248-3500 x www.davidjpowers.com the maintenance facility area and former UST locations at the golf course maintenance facility. Thus, the former UST locations should not have an adverse impact on the planned golf course renovation work, and no exception to the exemption applies under 15300.2, as there are no current conditions affecting the property that warrant inclusion on the Cortese list.3 (f) Historical Resources. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource. The project site is a country club which was established in 1928, approximately 97 years ago. The golf course was modified in 1989, including reconstruction of greens, replanting of grasses, regrading of some fairways, and changes to drainage of the course. The property is not included on the California Register of Historic Places, nor has it been determined eligible for listing on the California Register by the State Historical Resources Commission. The country club is also not identified in the Los Gatos General Plan as a registered historic place, nor has it been identified by the County of Santa Clara in its historic register as a historic property. Therefore, the property is not considered a mandatory historic resource under Guidelines Section 15064.5(a)(1) or a presumptive historic resource under Section 15064.5(a)(2). The proposed project would primarily replace the grass and some trees on the project site and would only require the relocation of one golf hole for the country club. This improvement would be similar to the improvements conducted in the 1990’s and would not change any of the uses of the country club facilities. No physical changes are proposed to the clubhouse or any other structures. Therefore, given the property is not listed as a historic resource by the state, county, or Town of Los Gatos, the modifications proposed as a part of the modernization project would not create a change in the significance of any historic resource. Section 15301 – Existing Facilities Section 15301, or Class 1, applies to projects consisting of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. The key consideration is whether the project involves negligible or no expansion of use. These conditions, along with the project’s consistency with them, are described below. The proposed modernization project would encompass grading of the site and reconstruction of the golf course which would reduce the water consumption on-site and allow for greater water infiltration due to reduced impervious surfaces. The changes to the golf course area would not expand the number of players, the frequency or magnitude/intensity of events, or overall utility of the project site. Therefore, the proposed project would not result in an expansion of use and would 3 California Environmental Protection Agency. “Cortese List Data Resources”.

Section 15302 – Replacement and Reconstruction Section 15302, or Class 2, applies to projects consisting of replacement or reconstruction of existing structures, facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced. These conditions, along with the project’s consistency with them, are described below. The proposed project would regrade the golf course area of the project site and reorganize the golf course layout. The reorganization of the site would construct the same uses within the existing boundary of the facilities of the country club. Additionally, the proposed project would not alter any of the structures on site other than a minor realignment of the primary access road for the project site and a new 250-square foot bathroom structure in the middle of the course. Therefore, the proposed project would be consistent with the conditions for a Section 15302 exemption because the country club would replace the existing course area in kind, and would not change the purpose or capacity of the La Rinconada Country Club. V. Conclusion As documented in Section IV. Environmental Review, with the incorporation of the City’s standard conditions of approval, none of the exceptions contained in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply to the project and the project is consistent with the criteria in CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 and 15302. The project, therefore, qualifies as exempt from the provisions of CEQA under Class 1 and Class 2 of the CEQA Guidelines.

Powers and Associates pkallas@davidjpowers.com FROM:Daniel Elting, WRA, Inc. daniel.elting@wra-ca.com CC: Andy Kimball, La Rinconada Country Club akimball@Larinconadacc.com DATE: Revised April 18, 2025 SUBJECT:La Rinconada Country Club Redesign Project Biological Constraints Assessment 1.0 PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide an analysis of biological resources at the La Rinconada Country Club (Study Area) in Los Gatos, Santa Clara County, California. The report is intended to support a review of the La Rinconada Country Club Redesign Project (Project) per the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). As part of that review, the memorandum addresses potential Project affects in accordance with Appendix G of the CEQA guidelines. Provided herein are descriptions of habitats present, and a discussion of potential environmental constraints. 2.0 BACKGROUND AND EXISTING CONDITIONS The La Rinconada Country Club (Study Area) is an approximately 129-acre complex which includes an 18-hole golf course, tennis courts, private recreation areas, ornamental ponds, pools, and other buildings and facilities. The Study Area is situated approximately 0.25 miles south of Highway 85 within an urbanized area in Los Gatos, California with private access driveways to the east from Clearview Drive and La Rinconada Drive. The Study Area is surrounded on all sides by residential development. The site has been used for recreation since the late 1920’s and contains a network of well-maintained paved roads and pathways throughout the site. 3.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed Project will be composed of a redesign of the existing golf course on site. Golf course modifications will be implemented through scattered earthwork on approximately 37 acres of existing course holes and ornamental ponds (Project Area; Figure 1). Additional Project components will include upgrades to irrigation systems and concrete pathways, turf lawn replacement, and removal and replacement of approximately 190 trees within the Project Area. Following the completion of construction, the proposed land-use will be equivalent to the existing use as recreation. Page 428 WRA, Inc.| 2169 G East Francisco Blvd., San Rafael, CA 94901 www.wra-ca.com · ph: 415.454.8868 2 3.1 Project Layout The Project would incur only slight changes modifications in grade of the existing golf course and make no major modifications in existing land cover. All existing on-site structures would remain unchanged but two ornamental ponds will be de-watered and re-graded to slightly different specifications. Upon project completion, the Country Club will continue to operate one 18-hole golf course and the membership capacity will remain unchanged. The Project would not expand or increase the use of any facilities at the Country Club, nor alter ingress and egress routes to the property. A Project Master Plan including Grading limits are provided in Attachment A.. 3.2 Irrigation System and Cart Paths As part of the proposed Project, the existing irrigation system will be modernized, existing drainage systems will be upgraded, and the fairway grass will be replaced with hybrid bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon); the hybrid bermudagrass will require 35 percent less irrigation water than the current course grass. In addition to the turf change and drainage upgrades, the Project would reduce the number of existing golf course cart paths which will decrease the impervious surface area on the golf course by approximately 70 percent. 3.3 Tree Removal There are approximately 1,200 trees on the property, most of which are non-native species planted by the Country Club over the past 50 years. A total of 256 trees will be removed as part of the Project; most of which are recently planted redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens) and eucalyptus (Eucalyptus sp.) trees. The Country Club will obtain all necessary permits associated with the removal of trees including heritage trees as defined by the City of Los Gatos (City) Code of Ordinances. Removed trees will be replaced at a 1:1 ratio by native oak trees (Quercus sp.) or other regionally appropriate native tree species. Details for trees to be removed and a proposed re-planting plan to City compliance are provided in Attachment A. 3.4 Construction As part of construction activities, grading would be balanced on-site with approximately 60,000 cubic yards of cut and fill. No soil would be imported to or exported from the site. Construction of the proposed Project is estimated to take approximately seven months to complete and is scheduled to begin in March of 2026. Page 429 WRA, Inc.| 2169 G East Francisco Blvd., San Rafael, CA 94901 www.wra-ca.com · ph: 415.454.8868 3 4.0 METHODS This evaluation is based on a review of literature and database sources as well as a site visit completed by WRA, Inc. (WRA) on January 24, 2025. Prior to the site visit, WRA biologists reviewed literature resources and performed database searches to assess the potential for sensitive land cover types (e.g., wetlands) and special-status species (e.g., endangered plants), including: x SoilWeb (CSRL 2025) x Contemporary aerial photographs (Google Earth 2025) x Historical aerial photographs (NETR 2025) x National Wetlands Inventory (USFWS 2025a) x California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB; CDFW 2025a) x California Native Plant Society Rare Plant Inventory (CNPS 2025a) x Consortium of California Herbaria 2 (CCH2 2025) x USFWS Information Planning and Consultation database (USFWS 2025b) x eBird Online Database (eBird 2025) x California Bird Species of Special Concern in California (Shuford and Gardali 2008) x California Amphibian and Reptile Species of Special Concern (Thomson et al. 2016) x A Field Guide to Western Reptiles and Amphibians (Stebbins 2003) x A Manual of California Vegetation, Online Edition (CNPS 2025b) x California Natural Community List (CDFW 2025) On January 24, 2025, WRA biologists Daniel Elting and Maya Avendano conducted a field assessment of the 129-acre Study Area to observe conditions for the presence of sensitive land cover types and the potential to support habitat for special-status plant and wildlife species. Potentially jurisdictional areas and sensitive habitats were mapped using a combination of mapping-grade GPS devices and hand-drawn boundaries on high-resolution aerial imagery. 5.0 RESULTS 5.1 Vegetation Communities and Other Land Cover WRA observed six land cover types within the Study Area. Non-sensitive land cover types include developed and ornamental ponds, and potentially sensitive land covers include intermittent stream, seasonal wetland swale, oak woodland and riparian woodland. Land cover types within the Study Area are mapped in Figure 1. Page 430 WRA, Inc.| 2169 G East Francisco Blvd., San Rafael, CA 94901 www.wra-ca.com · ph: 415.454.8868 4 5.1.1 Non-Sensitive Land Cover Types DEVELOPED Developed areas comprise the majority of the Study Area and consist of meticulously maintained fairway lawns and putting greens, sand bunkers, paved roads and concrete areas, buildings, swimming pool facilities, and ornamental landscaping. Mowed lawns are fields of non-native turf grasses with scattered non-native forbs such as English plantain (Plantago lanceolata), common sowthistle (Sonchus oleraceus), with planted stands of coast redwoods, coast live oaks (Quercus agrifolia), valley oak (Quercus lobata), and eucalyptus. This land cover type is not considered sensitive by any regulatory entities. ORNAMENTAL PONDS The Study Area contains two manmade ornamental ponds which were created sometime in the mid 1960’s and 1970’s (NETR 2025). The ponds are managed and filled with water year-round. The banks of the ponds are artificially hardscaped with rocks and concrete, with some areas having a more gradual, vegetated bank. While minimal, there are some areas on the fringes of the ponds with sparse, emergent aquatic vegetation encroaching into the water from the bank. The ponds were created through excavation of dry land and artificially filled with diverted water. These water features are unlikely to be recognized as sensitive by federal or state agencies. Sensitive Habitats. 5.1.2 Sensitive Habitats INTERMITTENT STREAM An intermittent stream flows from south to north in the central portion of the Study Area into an artificial drain. Intermittent streams exhibit flow during portions of the year but do not convey water during the dry season. The stream ordinary high- water mark (OHWM) was determined by scour, water staining, debris build up, and changes in vegetation. Flowing water was present in the stream at the time of the January 24, 2025, site visit. The stream is surrounded by riparian woodland vegetation including arroyo willow (Salix lasiolepis) and curly dock (Rumex crispus). Intermittent stream may be considered sensitive by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), and the United States Army Corps. of Engineers (Corps.) Photo 1. Developed land cover in the Study Area is largely dominated by mowed lawns and paved cart paths. Photo 2. Southeast ornamental pond in the Study Area. Photo 3.

Page 431 WRA, Inc.| 2169 G East Francisco Blvd., San Rafael, CA 94901 www.wra-ca.com · ph: 415.454.8868 5 RIPARIAN WOODLAND Riparian woodland occurs in the central portion of the Study Area adjacent to the main office building of the Country Club. Riparian habitat consists of woody-species-dominated vegetation that grows because of, or contributes organic material to, the intermittent stream within the Study Area. Riparian woodland is primarily dominated by coast live oak, with ash trees (Fraxinus sp.), elderberry (Sambucus sp.) and willows (Salix sp.) co-dominant. Poison oak (Toxicodendron diversilobum)and French broom (Genista monspessulana) largely dominate the midstory, with sparse herbs growing through the leaf litter, such as Italian arum (Arum italicum). Riparian woodland land cover type is considered sensitive by CDFW. The Project Area will not be within Riparian Woodland and no affects or disturbance to Riparian Woodland will occur. SEASONAL WETLAND SWALE A potential seasonal wetland exists in the central portion of the Study Area in a heavily modified drainage area immediately north of the central ornamental pond. The wetland serves as a drainage basin for coneyance structures to both the north and south. South of the wetland an artificial swale drains into the wetland from the nearby pond. North of the wetland a culvert outlet drains into the wetland originating from underground segments of stormwater conveyance beneath roadways. Some inundation was present in the wetland during the January 24, 2025 site visit near the northern most culvert. Vegetation in the seasonal wetland swale was dominated by wetland plants including cattail (Typha sp.), watercress (Nasturtium officinale), curly dock (Rumex crispus), and pale knotweed (Persicaria lapathifolia). Boundaries of the potential seasonal wetland were mapped based on changes in dominant vegetation and topography but were not formally assessed for the three wetland parameters used by the Corps. to delineate wetland boundaries. This seasonal wetland is unlikely to meet the definition of Waters of the U.S. by the Corps. but may be considered sensitive by CDFW and the RWQCB. Photo 5. Seasonal wetland swale in the Study Area.

This habitat primarily contains valley oak with sparse blue oak (Quercus douglasii) with minimal understory due to regular mowing and maintenance of walking trails. Oak woodland and associated trees may be considered sensitive at state and local levels. 6.0 SPECIAL-STATUS SPECIES 6.1 Special-status Plant Species Based upon a review of the resource databases listed in Section 3.0, 76 special-status plant species have been documented in the vicinity of the Study Area. All special-status plant species are unlikely or have no potential to occur within the Study Area because suitable conditions are lacking (e.g., edaphic [soil] conditions, topography, unique pH, associated natural communities, low levels of disturbance). No special-status plant species were observed within the Study Area on the January 24, 2025 survey. 6.2 Special-status Wildlife Species Based upon a review of the resource databases listed in Section 4.0, 40 special-status wildlife species have been documented in the vicinity of the Study Area. Of these species, most are excluded based on a lack of habitat features (e.g., tidal marsh, old growth redwood or fir forest, grassland, sandy beaches or alkaline flats, and the presence of specific host plants). Additional species are excluded due to the lack of hydrological connection with streams that could support breeding populations of amphibians, and absence of quality foraging habitat within the Study Area. As such, most special-status wildlife species documented from the vicinity do not have the potential to occur within the Study Area. 6.2.1 Species Discussion Northwestern Pond Turtle (NWPT; Actinemys marmorata) is a federally proposed threatened reptile that is known to occur within the vicinity of the Study Area. The nearest recorded occurrence of pond NWPT is in the Vascona Reservoir approximately 0.75 miles southeast of the Study Area (CNDDB 2024). Within the Study Area, the southeast ornamental pond provides potential habitat for NWPT due to the presence of minimal aquatic foraging vegetation and sparse basking sites in the form of above-surface rocks. However, the surrounding urban areas, heavy human disturbance, and fragmentation of suitable aquatic corridors surrounding the Study Area make the potential for establishment of pond turtles low. No NWPT were observed on the January 24, 2025 survey and they were determined to be unlikely to occur in the Study Area. Photo 5. Oak woodland in western portion of the Study Area. Page 433 WRA, Inc.| 2169 G East Francisco Blvd., San Rafael, CA 94901 www.wra-ca.com · ph: 415.454.8868 7 San Francisco dusky-footed woodrat (SFDFWR; Neotoma fuscipes annectens)is a regional subspecies of dusky footed woodrat that is a CDFW Species of Special Concern. SFDFWR use habitats with dense canopy cover including oak woodland, chaparral, and riparian woodlands. Mound shaped dens or “middens” are constructed by SFDWR using large twigs and occasionally anthropogenic items such as trash or debris (Kelly 1990). The nearest recorded occurrence of SFDWR is approximately 7 miles north of the Study Area along Saratoga Creek in Cupertino, California. During the site visit on January 24, 2025, three San Francisco dusky- footed woodrat nests were observed within riparian woodland surrounding the intermittent stream in the northeast portion of the Study Area. The presence of presumed active dens within the Study Area indicates that SFDFR are present in the Study Area. However they are only present within Riparian Woodland areas which are to be completed avoided by Project activities. 6.2.2 Protected Nesting Birds and Roosting Bats species protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) as well as by California Fish and Game Codes (CFGC) have potential to nest in trees, vegetation, or on structures within or adjacent to the Study Area. No active nests were observed in the January survey as the survey was outside of the breeding season of most species (Feb – Sep). Additionally, no inactive raptor nest structures from previous seasons were observed in any of the trees on site. Additionally special-status bats including CDFW Species of Special Concern (SSC) Townsend’s big-eared bat (Corynorhinus townsendii,) and pallid bat (Antrozous pallidus) have a potential to roost in mature trees in the Study Area, although the frequent level of day-time disturbance make this unlikely.

These thresholds were utilized in completing the analysis of potential Project affects for CEQA purposes. For the purposes of this analysis, a “substantial adverse effect” is generally interpreted to mean that a potential affect could directly or indirectly affect the resiliency or presence of a local biological community or species population. Potential affects to natural processes that support biological communities and special-status species populations that can produce similar effects are also considered potentially significant. Affects to individuals of a species or small areas of existing biological communities may be considered less than significant if those affects are speculative, beneficial, de minimis, and/or would not affect the resiliency of a local population. 8.0 POTENTIAL AFFECTS AND AVOIDANCE MEASURES The purpose of this assessment is to evaluate the potential affects of Project construction and operation on existing conditions for biological resources within the Project Area. This section is structured to specifically address each significance threshold for biological resources from CEQA Appendix G. Recommendations for avoidance and minimization measures are detailed for affects that area determined to be potentially significant (Table 1).

Special- status species Special-status Plants Special-status Wildlife Designated Critical Habitat Project may affect federal federally proposed northwestern pond turtle Project may affect San Francisco dusky footed woodrats or their dens, a California Species of Special Concern (SSC) Project may affect nesting birds protected by the CFGC by destroying active nests or causing disturbance that results in nest abandonment. Project may affect special- status and non-status roosting bats by destroying active roosts or causing disturbance that results in roost abandonment. Pre-construction wildlife survey in ornamental ponds prior to de-watering or grading. Turtles to be re-located by a USFWS approved biologist to nearby suitable habitat if observed. SFDFR are presumed present on site in the riparian woodland habitat, this area will not be affected by project activities and so there will be no affect. If construction activities cannot be avoided during nesting (February 1-August 31). Pre- construction bird surveys within 500 feet of construction area within 14 days of initial ground disturbance or vegetation removal. If nests of protected avian species are present, no-work exclusion zones around any active protected nest until all young have fledged or are independent of nest. Avoid tree removal activities during bat maternity season (April-October). Pre-construction bat surveys within 14-30 days of initial ground disturbance or veg removal. Regardless of timing of tree removal or trimming, allow all felled trees and large limbs to remain on the ground for at least 24 hours. Question B. Sensitive natural communities & riparian habitat Sensitive Natural Communities Streams, Lakes, & Riparian Habitat No affect, the Project footprint does not include any sensitive habitat mapped within the greater Study Area. Not applicable.

Not applicable. Question F. Local, state, federal conservation plans Habitat Conservation Plans No affect, the Project is outside of the Santa Clara County Habitat Plan Boundary. Not applicable. 8.1 Project Affect and Minimizatino Evaluation for Special-status Species 8.1.1 Special-Status Wildlife This section analyzes the Project’s potential effects and potential minimization measures for special-status species in reference to the significance threshold outlined in CEQA Appendix G, Part IV (a): a)Does the project have the potential to have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special-status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? Potential for potentially significant effects to special-status species are discussed below. Potential Affect BIO-1:The southeastern ornamental pond has limited potential to support northwestern pond turtle, a federal proposed species. While no turtles were observed on the January 2025 site visit, there are sparse basking sites in the form of above surface rocks, but corridors for turtles to reach the ponds are virtually absent. To reduce potential effects to northwestern pond turtle to a less-than-significant level, the following measures shall be implemented: Page 437 WRA, Inc.| 2169 G East Francisco Blvd., San Rafael, CA 94901 www.wra-ca.com · ph: 415.454.8868 11 Avoidance Measure BIO-1: Prior to de-watering or grading of existing ornamental ponds, a qualified biologist shall conduct a pre-activity survey of the ponds to ensure no NWPT are present and will be affected. If turtles are discovered, a federally- approved biologist shall capture and re-locate the turtles to nearby suitable habitat in consultation with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). NESTING BIRDS Special-status and non-status nesting birds protected under the CFGC have the potential to nest in trees, shrubs, herbaceous vegetation, and on bare ground and man-made structures within and adjacent to the Project Area Project construction activities have the potential to affect nests in these areas if construction is initiated during the breeding bird season (typically February 1 through August 31). Potential effects include direct destruction of nests as well as indirect visual and acoustic disturbance to nesting birds from construction in adjacent areas that have the potential to result in nest abandonment. Destruction of nests or indirect disturbance from construction that results in nest abandonment are considered potentially significant affects under CEQA. Potential Affect BIO-2: Project construction activities have the potential to directly or indirectly affect special-status nesting birds and other native nesting birds protected by the MBTA and CFGC. Construction could directly destroy active nests or cause disturbance that results in nest abandonment. To reduce potential for affecting nesting birds to a less-than-significant level, the following measures shall be implemented: Avoidance Measure BIO-2:Initiation of construction activities during the avian nesting season (typically February 1 through August 31) will be avoided to the extent feasible. If construction initiation during the nesting season cannot be avoided, pre- construction nesting bird surveys will be conducted within 14 days of initial ground disturbance or vegetation removal to avoid disturbance to active nests, eggs, and/or young of nesting birds. Surveys can be used to detect the nests of special-status as well as non-special-status birds. Surveys will encompass the entire construction area and the surrounding 500 feet. An exclusion zone where no construction would be allowed will be established around any active nests of any protected avian species found in the Project Area until a qualified biologist has determined that all young have fledged and are independent of the nest. Suggested exclusion zone distances differ depending on species, location, and placement of nest, and will be at the discretion of the biologist and, if necessary, the CDFW. These surveys would remain valid as long as construction activity is consistently occurring in a given area and will be completed again if there is a lapse in construction activities of more than 14 consecutive days during the breeding bird season. ROOSTING BATS Special-status and non-status bat species have the potential to be present in redwood or oak trees throughout the Project Area. Project construction activities have the potential to affect nests in these areas if construction is initiated during the bat maternity season (generally April Page 438 WRA, Inc.| 2169 G East Francisco Blvd., San Rafael, CA 94901 www.wra-ca.com · ph: 415.454.8868 12 through October). Potential effects include direct destruction of roosts as well as indirect visual and acoustic disturbance to roosting bats from construction in adjacent areas. Destruction of roosts or indirect disturbance from construction that results in roost abandonment are considered potentially significant effects under CEQA. Based on extensive development within and adjacent to the Study Area, the area of lost potential roosting habitat is considered a less than significant effect. Potential Affect BIO-3: Project construction activities have the potential directly or indirectly disturb special-status and non-status roosting bats. Construction could directly destroy active roosts or cause disturbance that results in roost abandonment. To reduce potential effects of roosting bats to a less-than-significant level, the following measures shall be implemented: Avoidance Measure BIO-3: Initiation of construction activities during the bat maternity season (generally April through October) will be avoided to the extent feasible, any tree removal or trimming should be conducted outside of the bat maternity season (generally April through October). If this work window is not feasible, pre- construction bat roost assessments conducted by a qualified biologist at least 14 days and no more than 30 days prior to removal are recommended to determine if bats roosts are present that may be affected by Project activities. If special- status bat species or maternity roosts are detected during these surveys, additional measures including avoidance of the roost sites until the end of the maternity roosting season may be recommended. 8.1.2 Sensitive Natural Communities Affects and Avoidance Evaluation This section addresses the question outlined in CEQA Appendix G, Part IV (b): b) Does the Project have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. While there is sensitive habitat mapped within the Study Area, such as potential seasonal wetland swale, intermittent stream, oak woodland and riparian woodland, there is no sensitive habitat within the proposed Project footprint and Project activities will be well isolated from sensitive areas. The Project will not adversely affect sensitive natural communities. 8.1.3 Affects and Avoidance Evaluation for Wetlands and Other Areas Regulated by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act This section analyzes the Project’s potential to affect and minimization for wetlands and other areas presumed or determined to be within the jurisdiction of the Corps. in reference to the significance threshold outlined in CEQA Appendix G, Part IV (c): c) Does the Project have the potential to have a substantial adverse effect on state or federally protected wetlands as defined by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (including, Page 439 WRA, Inc.| 2169 G East Francisco Blvd., San Rafael, CA 94901 www.wra-ca.com · ph: 415.454.8868 13 but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means; While there is a potential seasonal wetland swale and an intermittent stream within the Study Area, there are no wetlands and waters within the Project footprint. The Project will not adversely affect jurisdictional wetlands. 8.1.4 Affects and Minimization Evaluation for Habitat Corridors and Linkages This section analyzes the Project’s potential to affect and minimization for habitat corridors and linkages in reference to the significance threshold outlined in CEQA Appendix G, Part IV (d): d) Does the Project have the potential to interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites; Movement and migratory corridors are segments of land that provide a link between core habitat areas (Beier 1992, Soule and Terborgh 1999). The majority of the Study Area is developed or previously disturbed and is within a densely developed urban area. The site does not contain sufficient natural features to function as a wildlife movement corridor. The Project will not adversely effect movement or migratory corridors resulting from the Project because no movement or migratory corridors are present on the site. 8.1.5 Affects and Minimization Evaluation for Local Policies and Ordinances This section analyzes the Project’s potential to affect conflicts with local policies and ordinances in reference to the significance threshold outlined in CEQA Appendix G, Part IV (e): e) Does the Project have the potential to conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a tree preservation policy or ordinance; The Project may affect trees protected by the Town of Los Gatos’s Tree Removal and Pruning Permit. A tree removal permit will be obtained from the City of Los Gatos prior to the removal of such trees, in compliance with the City codes.A tree re-planting plan will be implemented as a condition of the permit to replace all removals at a 1:1 with native oak trees or other regionally appropriate species. Tree removal and re-planting plans including data on all trees on site are provided in Attachment A. The Project will not adversely affect or conflict with local codes and ordinances protecting biological resources. 8.1.6 Habitat Conservation Plans This section analyzes the Project’s potential effects and minimization based on conflicts with any adopted local, regional, and state habitat conservation plans in reference to the significance threshold outlined in CEQA Appendix G, Part IV (f): Page 440 WRA, Inc.| 2169 G East Francisco Blvd., San Rafael, CA 94901 www.wra-ca.com · ph: 415.454.8868 14 f) Does the Project have the potential to conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan. The Study Area is mapped outside of the Habitat Plan Study Area in the Santa Clara County Habitat Plan. Additionally, the Study Area is surrounded by fully developed residential uses and would not affect special-status species habitat or other sensitive habitats or involve a change in use type of the existing land cover. Therefore, the Project would not adversely affect or conflict with the Santa Clara County Habitat Plan.
