APPROVE THE PROPOSED 1995-96 STORM WATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
(NONPOINT SOURCE) BUDGET
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the proposed 1995-96 Storm Water Management Program (Nonpoint Source) budget.
BACKGROUND:
In April of 1992 the Town Council of Los Gatos, City of Campbell, and the City of Monte Sereno entered into
an agreement with the West Valley Sanitation District (WVSD) to assess and provide certain services related
to the Nonpoint Source Pollution Prevention Program. The joint program has proven to be extremely effective.
This year the City of Saratoga has contracted with the WVSD for many of the same services as provided in the
1992 agreement except for collection of fees. The WVSD has hired a program coordinator to represent the
'West End Dischargers" (WED.) The WED is modeled after the solid waste management cooperative and will
increase administrative efficiency.
DISCUSSION:
Each year the Town and the WVSD cooperatively prepare an annual work plan (Attachment 1) for Council
approval. Staff recommends continuing the 1994-95 Budget fee structure unchanged.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that Council approve the proposed budget. The program meets the objectives of the Federal
Clean Water Act and reduces environmental pollution from non -point sources.

HEARINGS CONTINUED
EASTFIELD MING QUONG/CONFERENCE CENTER CONT.
Council comments continued:
use. That condition #1 clearly state that no more than 35 conference attendees shall be
permitted on site at any one time. The word "meeting" changed to time. The hours be 8:30 a.m.
to 6:00 p.m. That Town holidays be specified in item #6.
Mrs. Benjamin spoke about traffic in the area, the concerns and the need the neighbors have
felt for stop signs to control the speeding. But she asked who was doing the speeding, and in
that location it is the people who live on those streets and their friends. She addressed the land
use issue compared to Hillbrook School. The use permit restrictions on that applicant were
concise enough to solve the problem for that neighborhood. She would like to try the use permit
for six months with the restrictions that already are in place and not change them yet. Except
for #1 which would say no more than one conference a day.
Mr. O'Laughlin requested that Ming Quong do public relations work in the neighborhood. He
agrees with the six month trial period and reasonable and rational restrictions in the use permit.
He also requested that the neighborhood review its traffic record and try to put some restrictions
on itself and take concern for each others safety regarding speeding on one another's streets.
Mr. Bowman this permit should refer to all conferences on site whether they are in house or not.
Motion by Mr. Blanton, seconded by Mrs. Lubeck, that Council uphold the Planning
Commission's decision with the following amendments to the conditions: #1 That no more than
35 conference attendees shall be permitted on site ant any one time, except for one meeting a
week which may be attended by between 35 and 50 attendees, provided there be no more than
four meetings per year attended by 50 people, and not more than one conference per day at any
time; #5 "Conference seminars shall be scheduled so that they do not begin before 8:30 a.m.
and shall end at or before 6:00 p.m."; #13 In addition to the six month review and public
hearing, there will be a review in eighteen months, although if needed a twelve month review
may take place; #6 The Town's government holiday schedule will be included with the weekend
stipulation; Mr. Bradley noted that the Town's code enforcement officer can come for
impromptu monitoring of the use permit restrictions. Carried unanimously, except for item #5
which Mrs. Benjamin opposed at this time.
