RESOLUTION DENYING APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION DENIAL
OF REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF PLANS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF A
MINI - WAREHOUSE STORAGE FACILITY AND FOR PERMISSION TO
HAVE A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE FOR USE BY A RESIDENT
MANAGER ON PROPERTY IN THE LM ZONE
(761 UNIVERSITY AVENUE - PUBLIC STORAGE, INC.)
WHEREAS:
1. Patrick J. McGaraghan, counsel for Public Storage, Inc., filed
an appeal of a decision of the Planning Commission as follows: denial of
request for approval of plans for construction of a mini - warehouse storage
facility and for permission to have a single family residence for use by a
resident manager on property in the LM Zone on property located at 761
University Avenue, owned by Jon P. Anderson and application by John Knott
for Public Storage, Inc. (Architecture and Site Application S- 78 -7A,
Conditional Use Permit Application U -78 -3A and Subdivision Application
M- 87 -8); and
2. A public hearing was set for the Town Council for April 4, 1988
and continued to and held on May 2, 1988.
BE IT RESOLVED:
1. The Town Council hereby finds that the Planning Commission
decision denying the project should be upheld because the project does not
meet the intent of the Zoning Ordinance covering the LM Zone. Zoning
Ordinance Section 4.72.010 provides that the intent of the LM Zone is for
small scale light industrial, repair and service - oriented activities that
provide services to Town residents in addition to retailing, service and
administrative activities. The proposed project is not small scale in
that it merges five (5) lots into one, thus eliminating current small
scale resident serving businesses and the potential development of others.
2. Based on the foregoing, the appeal is hereby denied and
Architecture and Site Application S- 78 -7A, Conditional Use Permit
Application U -78 -3A and Subdivision Application M -87-8 are hereby denied.
Pursuant to Los Gatos Town Code Section 1 -15, the time for seeking
judicial review for the Town Council decision is governed by California
Code of Civil Procedure Section 1094.6.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Town Council of the
Town of Los Gatos, California, held on the 16 day of May
1988 by the following vote.
AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS Joanne Benjamin, Thomas J. Ferrito,
