ORDINANCE OF THE TOWN OF LOS GATOS
AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 1351 EXPANDING THE DISTRICT
BOUNDARIES AND MODIFYING THE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
EFFECTING ZONE CHANGE NO. 89
(FAIRVIEW PLAZA HISTORIC DISTRICT)
The Town Council of the Town of Los Gatos does hereby ordain:
SECTION I
The district delineated on the attached map is hereby designated historically and
culturally significant as the Fairview Plaza Historic District HD- 76 -1A.
SECTION II
The district is designated to be historically, architecturally, or aesthetically significant
for the reasons listed below:
A. Property: Fairview Plaza Historic District
B. Historic designation no.: HD -76 -1A
C. Description of designation: District
D. Description of characteristics which justify the designation:
Historical "Fairview Plaza" was the original name given the cul -de -sac
termination of Pennsylvania Avenue in the subdivision known as "Fairview
Addition ", surveyed in June, 1885 by Herrmann Brothers, Land Surveyors, San
Jose, California, for Mr. F. H. McCullagh and recorded in County of Santa
Clara, Book 5 of Maps, page 26.
"Fairview Plaza" retains the same configuration as originally mapped and
contains a landscaped island as a focal point. Approximately three quarters
of the homes within the subdivision were built prior to 1900 and retain the
character of that era. The pedestrian walk labeled "Turnstile Walk" on the
original map remains essentially unchanged and is located at the eastern end
of the cul -de -sac.
C24 \0RDS \A -76 -1 A.CLN
While originally named 'Pennsylvania Avenue," that portion of the street
within the "Fairview Addition" subdivision has been renamed Fairview Plaza
(from the cul -e -sac west to the intersection with Oak Knoll Road, Manzanita
Avenue, and Wadsworth Avenue). Both the street and adjoining houses are
popularly referred to as "Fairview Plaza."
"Fairview Plaza" is a rare and unique neighborhood because of the authentic,
well - maintained Victorian and Craftsman houses in close proximity with one
another. The atmosphere is enhanced because the street is not a "through
street," thus allowing a scale and sense of "apparitions" which is not found in
most other neighborhoods.

SECTION III
The intent and purpose of this section is to preserve and protect the Town of Los

A. Demolitions:
Demolition of any contributing structure is forbidden absent cataclysmic event
or upon determination by the deciding body that demolition (as defined by
Town Code) is necessary for the proper restoration of the structure. In the
event of demolition as a result of cataclysmic event, the structure shall be
reconstructed to match the structure existing immediately prior to the
cataclysmic event or a previous structure on that site.
B. Remodels or Additions:
1. Standards for review as required by Section 29.80.290 of the Town
Code as follows:
a) Architectural Review Modification of the existing style or
overall design of a contributing structure in the district is
prohibited. A non - contributing structure may be remodeled into
the architectural style and design of a contributing structure in
the district (See list of contributors in Section II and Section III,
C. herein). New architectural features may be added to the
protected exterior facade only upon a demonstration by the
applicant proving consistency with the existing architectural style
and design as determined by the deciding body. Any proposed
new architectural features must be proven to demonstrate
architectural excellence, as well as be stylistically accurate and
C24 \0RDS \A -76 -1 A, CLN 3
must clearly enhance the existing architectural style and design
of the structure. Any uncertainty by the deciding body regarding
the consistency, excellence or enhancement of the proposed new
features to the existing structure must be resolved by the
deciding body against the applicant.
b) Contributing Structures The structures identified herein as
contributors to the district have been determined to be
historically, architecturally or culturally significant. Great care
and scrutiny is required to properly remodel or add on to any
of the contributing structures so that the structure's historic or
architectural integrity is preserved and not destroyed or damaged
in the remodeling or addition process. (See Section III, A.
herein regarding demolitions). The following provisions are
guidelines and requirements for the proper historic rehabilitation
and alteration of a contributing structure.
c) Non- Contributing Structures A 'non- contributing structure, if
not rehabilitated into a contributing style or design as provided
herein, should be remodeled or expanded consistent with its
existing architectural style and design. Introduction of entirely
new architectural styles (i.e. other than Victorian,
Craftsman /Bungalow) is prohibited.
2. Restoration /Rehabilitation Guidelines
a) General Guidelines All protected elements as described in
Section III, B.2.(e) herein, of the existing exterior facade must
be maintained. Any alteration of or addition to an existing
structure shall incorporate and continue the same massing, size,
scale and architectural features and design on the new
construction as is on the existing, and also incorporate and
continue in a consistent manner the protected exterior elements.
C24 \ORDS \A -76 -1 A; CLN 4
Original, existing, protected exterior elements shall be repaired
and reused whenever possible. When an addition or remodel
requires the use of newly constructed exterior elements, they
must be identical in size, dimension, shape and location, and
must use the same materials as. the existing protected exterior
elements (except as provided in Section III, B.2.(e)).
b) Front yard setbacks The prevalent front setback for existing
houses is 15 feet. Front yard setbacks for new construction may
be increased or decreased in accordance with the prevailing
setback on the block. (Reference Section 29.40.050 and
29.40.055 of the Town Code, note these sections only apply to
front yards, not side, rear or side yards abutting streets.)
c) Heights and proportions Heights and proportions of additions
and alterations shall be consistent with and continue the original
architectural style and design. All exterior elements including,
but not limited to, rooflines, porches, doorways, windows, trim
and siding shall be consistent with and continue the original
architectural style and design. New construction should maintain
the existing scale and character through compatible design and
attention to detail. The height and proportion of an addition
or a second story shall not dominate the original structure.
d) Building Materials Use of natural /original construction
materials (e.g., real wood siding, rock, brick, shingles, plaster)
matching and consistent with existing materials is required.
Composite, synthetic, metal, vinyl, plastic or fabricated /imitation
wood products, painted brick or imitation used brick are

C24 \0RDS \A -76 -1 A.CLN 5
traditional elements. are acceptable). Upon a demonstration
of hardship by the applicant, the decision making body may
approve an acceptable alternative to the original building
material if use of the original material is unfeasible due to
unreasonable cost and commercial availability, or health and
safety considerations.
e) Protected Exterior Elements The protected exterior elements
of a structure include all elements on the building's facades and
roof; however, minor structural alterations (e.g., addition of
windows, doors, skylights, porches or decks) not visible from the
