As a resident of Los Gatos I want to express what a great fit the business will be for our community. When my children were in preschool we would often got to Willow Glen to enjoy a cooking c lass at Cucina Bambini. My youngest still likes to go and enjoy a cooking class. I think the young families in this community would love to have a place to be able to enjoy cooking with their kids!

Los Gatos Dear Council Members I am the owner of Willow Street Pi zza located ne xt to 22 South Santa Cruz Ave. I am awa re of the Cu c ina Bambini Conditional Use Application proposed use of the va c ant space at 22 South Santa Cruz Ave . Willow Street Pizza would like to have Cucina Bambini as its neighbor. I feel the Cucina Bambini use would be very compatible to ou r business and the other business in the area and should increase the badly needed foot traffic on South Santa Cruz Ave. Cucina Bambini would bring a use downtown that do es not exist. It is family owned and operated. Additionally, it is a combination of a destination business which also would generate sales tax revenue .. I strongly recommend the council approval of the Cucina Bambini CUP .

They are a well -recognized and loved local business in Willow Glen by many, many families. It is a normal site to walk by their business and everyone seems to be having a great time. They would be a welcomed business in Los Gatos and bring a new type of outing for our families. As you most likely know of Classic Kids, we are a business loved by many families. We have been in LG since September 1997, and we would love to see Cucina Bambini join in as a local business! Looking forward to being able to stop in to say Hello to them. Hopefully, things will move swiftly and they will be open for business in the very near future.

Dear Council Members I am the owner of Maddox Hair Salon located at 22 South Santa Cruz Ave. I am strongly in favor of the Cucina Bambini Conditional Use Permit as any increased foot traffic on South Santa Cruz Ave would be a welcome event since there virtually isn't any a foot traffic south of Main Street.

Santa Cruz Ave, Los Gatos, Ca Dear Council Members, I have reviewed the Cucina Bambin i proposal a nd CUP application for the vacant space located at 22 South Santa Cruz Ave. I feel thi s would be a s plendid tenant and an ideal use to occupy this challenging location. While other businesses hav e found this off-the-beaten-track location to be too challenging to survive. I believe Cucina Bambini brings a unique range of products and services that could thriv e despite the foot traffic which other centra l business district business enjoy. Cucina Bambini will be a de s tination for familie s to share quality tim e, learn life skills and explore creativ ity. Cuc in a Bambini is a local fami ly-owned-and-operated business. Cucina Bambini offers cooking classes for all ages and has a welcomed r e ta il component to it s use. I for one, can say their epicu rea n product lin e will be a very welcomed addition to the downtown offe rings. One of Cucina Bambini s pecialtie s is a chi ldre n's hands-on cooking sc hool that gets rave reviews. They offe r cu linary ed uc atio n covering a wide range of cooking techniques, a long with safe food handling in struction fo r youngsters a nd ad ults. We should welcome this youth-friend ly, and fami ly friendly busin ess to our down town . This is exact ly the kind of bu s iness our Lo s Gato s res idents a nd th e business community will support and appreciate. As a downtown resi dent and bu s in ess owner I wou ld encou rage you to approve this CUP appl ic ation. Sincerely,
