BACKGROUND: In 2008, the Town granted approval for exterior modifications to Los Gatos Shopping Center at 404 through 440 N. Santa Cruz Avenue. The modifications included an outdoor patio area. In 2009, the Town Council approved a retail wine establishment with food, beer, and wine service at 414 & 416 N. Santa Cruz Avenue (now addressed as 416 N. Santa Cruz Avenue). Staff analyzed the proposed Conditional Use Permit (CUP) modification against the Town's Alcoholic Beverage Policy (ABP) and the Town's standards for outdoor seating. DISCUSSION: A. Project Summary The applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) modification to allow outdoor seating in an existing outdoor patio area and expand the hours of operation. The following table compares the existing allowable and proposed operations: 47. 2 h Y:... t r: ` _ ".t .. t Existing `'r ..> t 'Proposed.

Please see Attachment 8 for additional information regarding the project. B. Planting Commission On June 22, 2011, the Planning Commission considered the subject application (see Attachment 8). See Attachment 6 for the Commission's full discussion. PAGE 3 MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL SUBJECT: 416 N. Santa Cruz Avenue/U-11-003 July 25, 2011 The Planning Commission recommended approval of the CUP with a modified condition to limit the number outdoor seats to 12 and the number of indoor seats to 16. The modified condition is included with Attachments 2 and 5. The seating condition recommended by staff established a maximum number of seats without specifying how many seats are allowed indoors or outdoors. This would allow the applicant the flexibility to move seats indoors when the weather is not conducive to outdoor seating. The Planning Commission recommended the modified condition because the application did not include information showing that 12 additional seats could fit inside. Staff is working with the applicant to provide this information at the Town Council meeting. PUBLIC COMMENTS: The Town received public comments contained in Attachments 7, 8, and 9. CONCLUSION: The project would allow an existing establishment to provide outdoor seating. The proposed modifications meet the requirements of the Town's Alcoholic Beverage Policy and the Standards for Outdoor Seating. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the application subject to the modified condition as discussed above. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT: The project is Categorically Exempt according to Section 15061 of the State Environmental Guidelines as adopted by the Town because the project consists of permitting an activity where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment. FISCAL IMPACT: None. Attachments: 1. Required Findings 2. Resolution approving the Conditional Use Permit modification (with Exhibits A and A.1) 3.

RECEIVED JUN 20 2011 TOWN OF LOS GATOS PLANNING DIVISION I write this letter on behalf of rnyself, my partners, and our business Rootstock Wine Bar. We recently went through: the Town process and received approval for our retail wine shop and wine bar business, and could not be more excited about the opportunity. Through the process, we received tremendous support of local businesses including that of Enoteca La Storia. We believe that together our wine businesses can create an exciting new part of the Los Gatos identity, which is a focus on wine be it local, regional, or international. We strongly support Enoteca La Storia's application for increased seating, outdoor seating, and extended hours of operation. They have established their business in Townwith class and a high standard of professionalism. Anything that helps their success is good for our vision of advancing wine as part of the Town identity, is good for synergy for other local restaurants and businesses, and is good for the Town as a whole. Please vote to approve their request. Founding.

I am writing to you to express my support for allowing Enoteca La Storia to provide outdoor seating with food and wine/beer service on the new patio located in front of their existing establishment at 416 N. Santa Cruz Avenue. Outdoor seating is a much sought-after and appreciated amenity in our beautiful town and I believe that this project will be a wonderful and positive addition to our local neighborhood. I appreciate being able to walk to Enoteca La Storia, and would enjoy dining outside on their proposed patio. This establishment offers something new and exciting in a section of town that could use more attention and support. I strongly encourage you to approve this innovative project put forward by these responsible proprietors.

Planning Commission Staff Report - Page 3 416 N. Santa Cruz Avenue /U-11-003 June 22, 2011 PROJECT DESCRIPTION: A. Location and Surrounding Neighborhood The project site is located on the east side of N. Santa Cruz Avenue, approximately 250 feet north of Los Gatos -Saratoga Road. The property is surrounded by commercial uses to the north, west, and south. To the east is a Town parking lot. Single family residential uses are located beyond the Town parking lot. B. Project Summary The applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) modification to allow outdoor seating in an existing outdoor patio area. The CUP requires a recommendation from the Planning Commission and review by the Town Council because the use involves the service of alcoholic beverages. The applicant provided a letter of justification (Exhibit 5), explanation for the outdoor seating design (Exhibit 6), justification for extended hours of operation (Exhibit 7), and development plans (Exhibit 9). The'applicant is requesting the following changes noted in the table below. • , xi t ng , e .oPo.Sed 4 Number of Seats 16 — indoor 0 — outdoor 16 — indoor 12 — outdoor Hours of Operation* Monday through Wednesday, 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Thursday, 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Friday and Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Sunday, 12:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday through Wednesday, 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Thursday through Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. Sunday, 12:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. *Existing CUP requires service of alcohol to cease one hour prior to closure (Exhibit 4) and is part of the subject proposal. C. Zoning Compliance The zoning designation allows food and beverage service and outdoor seating subject to the approval of a Conditional Use Permit. Planning Commission Staff Report - Page 4 416 N. Santa Cruz Avenue /U-11-003 June 22, 2011 ANALYSIS: A. Alcoholic Beverage Policy (ABP) The proposed application meets the purpose, general policy, and specific policy of the Town's Alcoholic Beverage Policy (ABP). Although the business is proposing to remain open past the alcoholic beverage service hours allowed by the ABP, the operation would cease alcoholic beverage service one hour prior to closure. Therefore, as proposed and conditioned, the project would meet the limitations of the ABP. The deciding body must make specific findings for the service of alcoholic beverages after 10:00 pm. The Town has not received any complaints for Enoteca La Storia. The original approval (Exhibit 4) required a two year review by staff Staff did not carry this condition over to the subject application given. the lack of ctiinplamts and .the nearness 'of the' tv,'o' year review date. The business remains in good standing and would continue to provide the community with an established, successful wine establishment. B. Outdoor Seating The applicant proposes to use an existing outdoor patio area for 12 outdoor seats. The patio area is located on private property within the shopping center. The patio separates the subject business from the parking lot; a common walkway separates the subject business from the patio. The patio is located approximately 130 feet from the public right-of-way. The Town has five standards for outdoor seating: 1. Outdoor seating is prohibited on public property. Outdoor seating may be allowed on private property with a Conditional Use Permit 2. A physical delineation in the form of landscaping or planters is required to separate public and private property. The height of the separation shall be a minimum of three feet but no higher than_ four feet. The physical design and plant material should complement the design of the building and prevent passing or carrying alcoholic beverages outside the restaurant seating area. Plant material shall be alive. 3. When alcoholic beverages are peiiiiitted in outdoor seating areas that are immediately adjacent to a public pedestrian way, the landscape separation shall be designed to clearly suggest that alcohol is not allowed outside the restaurant seating area. 4. For outdoor seating areas immediately adjacent to the public right-of-way, a hold harmless agreement shall be recorded releasing the Town from any liability related to the outdoor seating. 5. When alcoholic beverage service is permitted outside, a restaurant employee shall seat patrons. Planning Commission Staff Report - Page 5 416 N, Santa Cruz Avenue /U-11-003 June 22, 2011 The proposal would comply with all of the above standards. The applicant submitted explanation for the outdoor seating design (Exhibit 6). The explanation includes a description of the outdoor patio separation from the common areas and public right-of-way. The explanation also includes a description of the use of a host/hostess to seat the patrons of the outdoor seating area. In addition to meeting the standards for outdoor seating, the applicants would post signage that alcoholic beverages are not permitted beyond the patio area. C. Parking and Traffic The previously approved use required ten parking spaces based on the most intensive portion of the use — the special events (Exhibit 4). One parking space was required for every three attendees. The maximum number of individuals on site at any given time is limited to 30. This allows a 25 person maximum for attendees and a five person maximum for employees, instructors, and/or presenters. Based on this existing allotment, the proposed 28 seats would meet parking requirements. The condition that limits the number of individuals on site for events based on the parking space allotment is carried forward for the subject application. Additionally, the condition limiting the number of seats notes that the maximum number of seats is not in addition to the number of event attendees, The increase in seating will not increase required parking. The traffic impacts of proposed use are calculated using shopping center trip generation rates. Based on the shopping center trip generation rates, there will be no increase in traffic impacts. D. Police Department Comments The Police Department reviewed the proposal and has no comments. E. Conditional Use Permit Findings In order to grant approval of a Conditional Use Permit, the deciding body must make the following findings: (1) The proposed uses of the property are essential or desirable to the public convenience or welfare; and (2) The proposed uses will not impair the integrity and character of the zone; and (3) The proposed uses would not be detrimental to public health, safety or general welfare; and (4) The proposed uses of the property are in harmony with the various elements or objectives of the General Plan and the purposes of the Town Code. Planning Commission Staff Report - Page 6 416 N. Santa Cruz Avenue /U-11-003 June 22, 2011 In regards to finding one, the use is essential or desirable to the public convenience or welfare in that the use would allow an existing business to provide its customers a wider range of services. In regards to the second finding, the use would not impair the integrity of the zone since the commercial use would be in a commercial zone. In regards to finding three, the recommended conditions of approval would mitigate potential impacts. In regards to the final finding, the proposed use meets the objectives of the General Plan and Town Code as discussed within this report. F. General Plan The goals and policies of the 2020 General Plan listed below are applicable to this project. Staffs comments regarding the goals and policies are italicized. • Policy LU-9.6 Encourage development that maintains and expands resident oriented services and/or creates eri ployment opportunities :for_ lbcal residents cons scent vvrth_- overall land use policies of the Town. The proposed use will encourage an existing business to remain while allowing it to expand. G. Environmental Review The project is Categorically Exempt according to Section 15061 of CEQA as adopted by the Town, which exempts permitting an activity where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment. No significant effect on the environment will occur since the project uses an existing structure with no increase in floor area, parking demand, or aggregate trip generation. H. Redevelopment Plan for the Central Los Gatos Redevelopment Project Area The Redevelopment Plan contains a Redevelopment Land Use Map'' ---that ,designates proposed land uses to be permitted in the Central Los Gatos Redevelopment Project Area.

N:\DEV\CONDITNS\2009\NSC414 416.doc This Page Intentionally Left Blank LETTER OF JUSTIFICATION For ENOTECA LA STORIA — CUP AMENDMENT RECEIVED MAR C 2 2011 TOWN OF LOS GATOS PLANNING DIVISION DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Enoteca La Storia is an Italian-themed wine bar. We offer a fairly significant selection of fine wines for retail purchase (off -premise) as well as a modest selection of wine offered by -the -glass for tasting (on -premise) and for pairing with our menu of wine -related food offerings. In keeping with our goal of creating a culture of passionate, informed and responsible wine and food enjoyment, we will provide a separate room, off the main retail space, to be used for private, intimate events such as hosted tastings, corporate meetings, private tastings, and wine education classes. has been in operation since April of 2010. Our wine bar has been very well received by the residents of Los Gatos — and beyond. Several local residents have become "regulars." They continually state that they are extremely happy that we have opened and that our wine bar concept is something that fits perfectly into the town business mix and has brought something unique and much -needed to the area. We are applying for an amendment to our existing CUP to be able to expand our service and seating onto the new patio built by our landlord. HOURS OF OPERATION (PATIO): Monday — Wednesday: 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM Thursday: 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM Friday and Saturday: 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM Sunday: 12:00 PM to 9:00 PM Please note: Food and Beverage service will terminate ONE HOUR prior to close. EXISTING BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY: • Currently, there has been no existing business that offers such a wide range of eclectic wines (and specialty foods) in town, so residents have had to drive to neighboring areas to purchase wines and to interact with passionate, friendly, and knowledgeable staff. We have fulfilled this unmet need for Los Gatos residents, thereby increasing their satisfaction with the amenities found in town and alleviating any frustrations they may have had about having to drive elsewhere in order to procure the products and services they desire. • Our business has provided the type of products and services that has attracted upscale patrons, both private and corporate, into the town from outlying areas, bringing more collateral business and sales revenue into town which has benefitted other local businesses and the town. • We are trending toward higher volume of sales for the modest physical footprint of our business which will provide increasing sales tax revenue to the town. • By providing a unique and popular destination in the Los Gatos Shopping Center, we have drawn people into an area beyond the downtown core, thereby expanding activity and business into a less -frequented, less "popular" section of town. ADDITIONAL BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY EXHIBIT 5 FACTS THAT JUSTIFY APPLICATION: • Our business has and will continue to comply with the Noise Element in the General Plan. • Our business has and will continue to comply with the town's Alcohol Beverage Policy in that we will not serve any wine/beer past 10 PM (see note under Hours of Operation). • In nearly 1 full year of operation, o We have not had a SINGLE complaint filed by any residents regarding noise, disruptive customer behavior or ANY other reason. o We have never had, a SINGLE incident of drunken or disorderly conduct by any of our patrons. o We have never had a SINGLE incident, in which we or any Los Gatos resident has contacted local law enforcement because of problematic behavior of our patrons. • Our business has and will continue to help achieve the objective of providing a "diverse shopping experience" as outlined in the General Plan because we would provide a unique, interactive and mutli-level wine -related experience that is not currently available in the town limits. • Our business has and will continue to achieve the objective of "preserving the small town character" of the town as outlined in the General Plan because we are a small, privately owned and operated business. One of the principals has long-standing roots in the local community. • Our business has achieved the objective of supporting "an active business community that provides a wide variety of goods and services and a broad range of employment opportunities, minimizing the need to travel toother communities" in order to obtain sought-after products and services as outlined in the General Plan. The proposed uses of the property are desirable to the public conveniences; the proposed uses will not impair the integrity and character of the zoning district; the proposed uses would not be detrimental to public health, safety, or general welfare; the proposed uses of the property are in harmony with the various elements or objectives of the General Plan (as outlined above) and the purposes of the Town Ordinance.. SPECIFIC ISSUES RELATED TO ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE POLICY: • The stated purpose of the policy is to avoid the potential to "jeopardize the public safety" which may "result in an increase of calls for police services." o As stated above, in nearly 1 full year of operation, we have not had a SINGLE incident involving disruptive behavior, public drunkenness OR any incidents requiring local law enforcement intervention. • The policy "provides parameters for alcoholic beverage service, particularly addressing late night service when alcohol -related incidents are most likely to occur and when the disturbances to Town residents is least tolerable." o The latest our food and beverage service- terminates on any given night has been 10:00 PM (which will only be on. Friday and Saturday nights). Most nights it terminates at 9:00 PM Explanation of Design Elements and Monitoring of Alcoholic Beverage Service In compliance with the Town's Policy re: Outdoor Service and as shown in drawing of patio design, there will be a host/hostess stand located near the entrance of the patio. The host/hostess will not only seat customers, but monitor customer activity and enforce all applicable company, Town, and ABC rules, regulations and laws. In addition, as further depicted in the drawing, we intend to use large flowerpots and existing columns to decrease the one and only open side of the patio from 32 feet down to 19.42 feet, effectively decreasing the opening by almost 50%, making it easier to regulate egress and ingress and provide clearer delineation between public walkway and the private patio space. We will also provide signage stipulating that alcoholic beverages are not permitted beyond the patio boundaries. Furthermore, it should be noted that our patio area is defined on two of three sides by solid, permanent structures (the stone wall and wrought iron railing) as delineated on the submitted drawing, rather than simple planter boxes or other portable and/or non -continuous objects that can be easily traversed; again, making this particular setting unique from most others in town. We also ask that you take into consideration that our patio space is separated from the nearest public right away (i.e., sidewalk) by approximately 300 feet and located on private property, making it much lesslikelythat a casual passerby will inadvertently enter the premises or that customers will exit the delineated area with alcoholic beverages in their possession. This additional attribute also makes our patio space much different than most others in town in which the outdoor seating area is directly adjacent to public space. We are confident that all these unique factors will make it easier for us to enforce and monitor effective and problem -free alcoholic beverage service on the outdoor patio.

My husband, David, and I are residents of Los Gatos. We reside at 205 Casitas Bulever, 95032. My husband and I strongly support the application by Enoteca La Stbria to provide outdoor seating with food and wine/beer service on the new patio located in front of their existing establishment at 416 N. Santa Cruz Avenue. Outdoor seating is a much sought-after and appreciated amenity which supports community life. Having moved fairly recently to the area, we have often wondered why there are so few opportunities for outdoor dining when the casual environment and weather are conducive to enjoying it. We believe that this project will be a wonderful and positive addition to our local neighborhood. Enoteca La Storia is a marvelous addition to a section of town that has long needed businesses that draw attention and traffic beyond the downtown core. ELS is a thriving business after just one full year of operation. This speaks to interest generated by their timely concept and the quality of their commitment. During the last year, we have not been aware of any incidents of disruptive activity or problematic behaviors. Indeed, it is our observation that the owners are passionate and responsible regarding all aspects of their business. They are on premises virtually around the clock.

Outdoor seating is a much sought-after and appreciated amenity in our beautifid town, especially for the warm months to come, and I believe that this project will be a wonderful and positive addition to the area. I can't say enough . about how much the presence of Enoteca La Storia has enhanced our lives - becoming a true neighbourhood mecca for quality service, food/beverages, and atmosphere. We have been loyal customers since they opened more than a year ago and in that time, it has always presented a truly safe and friendly environment absolutely in keeping with how we all see Los Gatos. This is a credit to the owners and staff, and is a very positive indication that they will manage this outdoor space with skill and care. We very much hope the Planning Commission will approve this project without delay and in time for summer use.

View it in your browser. We Need Your Support For The Patio Hello friends and supporters of Enoteca La Storia, Let us start off by thanking you for your support over the past year. Our first year of business has flown by! We've had a great time and are very grateful for the enthusiastic welcome we've received — and promise to continue to work hard to improve and develop our little family operation so that we can give you the best possible wine & dining experience around. This being said, we are writing to ask for your support in our efforts to get our beautiful patio approved for use. Hopefully you've noticed the new flagstone paversinstalled, the flowing fountain and the gorgeous 1 weather all of which just scream "al fresco dining!" Our landlord is enthusiastically working to complete construction as soon as possible. The only "obstacle" to overcome now is to get approval from the Town - both from the Planning Commission and the Town Council. We don't foresee any problems with the approval process — other than getting on the agendas of these busy groups. At this point, we are "tentatively" scheduled on the June 22nd meeting agenda for the Planning Commission (though we may get "bumped" to a later date). If all goes well and we get approved, we must then wait to be scheduled on the Town Council agenda, which will take place in July (at the earliest). Unfortunately, what this means is that — without an expedited meeting — our patio won't be approved for use until AFTER Summer, sometime in August - or worse — September (post the Town Council's August break). Would that we could speed up the. process... (and no, you can't bring out your own chairs and glasses in the meantime...) Here's where you can help us — if you are a Los Gatos resident and have any plans to make use of this beautiful space — or are simply in favor of the project - we ask that you contact the representatives of the Town and let them know that you are in support them giving us their approval to open the new ELS patio. Any emails/letters should be addressed to the Town of Los Gatos Planning Commission and Town Council. However, the emails/letters should be sent to Jennifer Savage, the Planner assigned to our project. Jennifer is a wonderful, hard-working supporter of Enoteca La Storia. You .can email her directly at: jsavage(a losoatosca.cov or mail in a letter to her attention at 110 E. Main Street, Los Gatos, CA 95031.

Santa Cruz Avenue. ELS has brought something new and exciting to a section of town that has long needed businesses like it to stretch the downtown area and to draw more attention and foot traffic beyond the core downtown business area. ELS has been in business for a year now and, to the best of my knowledge, there have been no incidents of disruptive activities or problematic behaviors. The ownersare very responsible business people, with a proven track record, who I am certain will manage their small outdoor space with the same skill and professionalism. I strongly urge you to make this action a priority and approve the proposed project this spring, without delay, to enable we patrons to use ELS' patio seating while enjoying our fantastic Los Gatos weather.

I am confident that you will help this nascent business, along with many others, who need your assistance to overcome this type of bureaucratic obstacle. These obstacles, which in some cases are created with good cause but drag out the "approval" process, often result in significant lost revenue to the business and, thus, lost tax receipts to the City. Again, I suggest that you expedite the approval of the outdoor seating at Enoteca Las Storia.

I live about a mile from Enoteca La Storia. My husband, friends and I have enjoyed immensely this new business this past year. We have celebrated birthdays, reunions, fundraisers for local charities, and simple get-togethers amongst friends over the course of the year. It has begun to feel like the neighborhood meeting place. It is unique to Los Gatos, and nearby towns. By now, most of my LG friends know Enotecha and frequent it. What has been fun more recently is to see its popularity grow among neighboring communities, whose residents recognize a gathering place both stylish and different, yet somehow Los Gatos in feel. Just the night before last, my friend from Saratoga emailed me mid day to say 'Y keep hearing about a great wine place on N. Santa Cruz... Can we meet there tonight!" We were happy to see that Enoteca plans to extend and provide outdoor seating with food and wine/beer service on the new patio located in front of their existing establishment. Such an additioin would only enhance the ambiance in Los Gatos and be a positive upgrade for all of us. The backdrop of outdoor dining elicits thoughts of old -European villages, and is new and different. It would be appreciated not only by those dining, but those traveling by, as well, adding to the charm we know to be Los Gatos. I encourage you to take steps to make this happen THIS summer 2011. Finally, I can add that I have known Mike Guerra for many years. He is a responsible, thoughtful and caring person. Enoteca's sterling reputation as it finishes its first year in LG is no surprise to those of us who know him. It evidences what we know already, Mike and his business partner will continue to bring a business of the kind Los Gatos can be proud.

I live on San Mateo Drive. I wanted to provide my support for including Enoteca in the next meeting, so they may get approval for their patio. We have a serious lack of patios in Los Gatos and theirs is away from the street and will be a real asset to drawing visitors and revenue to the city. Best regards, Sharon Sharon.

Santa Cruz Avenue RE: Conditional Use Permit U-11-003. Requesting approval to increase seating/establish outdoor seating and modify hours of operation. Property Owner: Los Gatos Shopping Center LLC Applicant: Michael Guerra and Joseph Cannistraci Tentatively scheduled for Special Town Council meeting on Monday, July 25th, 2011 I am writing in support of the CUP application submitted by Enoteca La Storia to approve patio seating and expand hours of operation. As we at Los Gatos Bar and Grill have stated before we look forward to the addition or expansion of destinations in downtown Los Gatos that continue to build upon the ongoing success of our business district. The addition of a small patio seating area will enhance the dining options our residents and visitors will have in Los Gatos. Expanding hours to enable a more successful business model is also a welcome addition to the downtown. It is imperative that business owners are given the tools needed to succeed. Having reasonable hours of operation are a key element in that regard. We hope that you give your wholehearted support to this endeavor.
