CEQA:
The project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to the adopted Guidelines for the Implementation
of the California Environmental Quality Act, Section 15303: New Construction or Conversion of
Small Structures, which includes demolition of an existing single-family residence and
construction of a new single-family residence in a residential zone.
FINDINGS:
The project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to the adopted Guidelines for the
Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act, Section 15303: New
Construction or Conversion of Small Structures.
As required by Section 29.10.09030(e) of the Town Code for the demolition of existing
structures.
As required by the Residential Design Guidelines that the project complies with the
Residential Design Guidelines.
CONSIDERATIONS:
As required by Section 29.20.150 of the Town Code for granting approval of an Architecture
and Site application.
ACTION:
The decision of the Planning Commission is final unless appealed within ten days.
BACKGROUND:
The project site is a corner lot located on the southwest corner of Rochin Terrace and Rochin
Court (Exhibit 1). The parcels immediately adjacent to the subject property are within the Town
boundaries; however, some county properties are located in the surrounding neighborhood
subdivisions along Linda Avenue and Rochin Terrace (Exhibit 1). The 8,560-square foot lot is
currently developed with a one-story 1,700-square foot single-family residence.
The project is being considered by the Planning Commission to determine whether the
proposed contemporary modern architectural style is compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood subdivisions as it relates to the following Residential Design Guidelines (RDG):
• Encourage a diversity of architectural styles consistent with the neighborhood context
(General Design Principles, page 11);
• Design to blend into the neighborhood rather than stand out (General Design Principles,
page 11);
PAGE 3 OF 9 SUBJECT: 15921 ROCHIN TERRACE/S-18-002 DATE: JULY 20, 2018
N:\DEV\PC REPORTS\2018\Rochin Terrace, 15921 - 07-25-18.docx 7/18/2018 7:48 AM
• Select an architectural style with sensitivity to the surrounding neighborhood (3.2.1);
• Design for architectural integrity: Carry wall materials around all sides of the house
(3.2.2 and 3.8.4); and
• Select materials that are sensitive to the surrounding neighborhood (3.8.2).
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
A. Architecture and Site Application
The applicant is proposing to demolish the existing single-family residence and construct a
new 2,696-square foot single-family residence and a 479-square foot attached garage.
Specifically, the residence would consist of a 1,610-square foot first floor and a 1,086-
square foot second floor. The maximum height of the proposed house would be 25 feet, 3
inches. The project proposes a combination of exterior siding materials including painted
smooth-coat stucco in two shades and transparent-stained cedar; boxed eaves finished with
Ipe wood; dark bronze aluminum clad wood windows; dark bronze metal and wood garage
door; and charcoal gray standing seam metal roof. Proposed site improvements include a
new swimming pool, driveway, patios, and an outdoor kitchen.
Story poles have been placed on the site to aid in the review of the project. The poles and
netting have been in place since June 12, 2018.
B. Location and Surrounding Neighborhood
The project site is a corner lot located on the southwest corner of Rochin Terrace and
Rochin Court (Exhibit 1). Properties within the surrounding neighborhood subdivisions are
developed with mid-century one- and two-story single-family residences.
C. Zoning Compliance
The proposed project complies with the FAR, height, and structure coverage limitations.
The proposed project complies with setback requirements and two parking spaces would be
provided on-site, where two spaces are required. The zoning permits a single-family
residence.
DISCUSSION:
A. Floor Area
Based on Town and County records, the residences in the immediate neighborhood range in
size from 1,590 square feet to 2,893 square feet. The house FARs range from 0.18 to 0.32.
The proposed residence would be 2,696 square feet with a FAR of 0.31. Pursuant to Town

N:\DEV\PC REPORTS\2018\Rochin Terrace, 15921 - 07-25-18.docx 7/18/2018 7:48 AM
Code, the maximum allowable square footage for the 8,560 square-foot lot is 2,752 square
feet with a maximum allowable FAR of 0.32. The immediate neighborhood analysis
provided in the table below reflects the current conditions.

The RDG specify that residential development shall be similar in size, bulk, and scale to the
immediate neighborhood. The Guidelines also specify that consideration will be given to
the existing FARs, residential square footages, and lot sizes in the immediate neighborhood.
The proposed residence would be the second largest home in the immediate neighborhood
in terms of square footage and tied for the second largest in terms of FAR.
B. Architectural Considerations
On January 22, 2018, the Town’s architectural consultant conducted a review of the initial
submittal of the project to provide recommendations related to architecture and
neighborhood compatibility (Exhibit 6). The architectural consultant noted that the
proposed residence is well designed within its chosen architectural style and that the
residence would be a good addition to some neighborhoods. Further, the breakup of the
structure’s form would be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The
architectural consultant cautions that in this context, the contemporary modern
architectural style would be a departure from the character of the surrounding
neighborhood, and recommended addressing the following issues:
• The metal and glass garage door which emphasizes the garage;
• The large first-floor and second-floor windows on the front elevation;
• The shed roof forms and metal roofing; and
• Nearby homes with two-story masses are generally broken by a section of roof at
the first-floor eave line.
PAGE 5 OF 9 SUBJECT: 15921 ROCHIN TERRACE/S-18-002 DATE: JULY 20, 2018
N:\DEV\PC REPORTS\2018\Rochin Terrace, 15921 - 07-25-18.docx 7/18/2018 7:48 AM
The architectural consultant added that of the above issues, the only one he would be
comfortable with was retaining the shed roof forms.
On May 9, 2018, the applicant submitted a revised project and a letter of justification
responding to the concerns of the architectural consultant (Exhibit 7). The revised project
addressed all the above issues, while retaining the shed roofs. In the letter of justification,
the applicant states that because there is only one access route for the property, along
Linda Avenue, the property is part of a well-defined surrounding neighborhood consisting of
Linda Avenue, Constances Court, Rochin Terrace, and Rochin Court. The applicant’s letter of
justification provides an analysis of this surrounding neighborhood.
On May 15, 2018, the architectural consultant provided additional recommendations to
consider, related to architecture and greater neighborhood compatibility (Exhibit 8). The
architectural consultant continued to note that the project is well designed and provided a
side-by-side comparison of the original and revised street façades (Exhibit 8, page 4).
The architectural consultant recommended consideration of several additional issues to
increase the compatibility of the design with the immediate neighborhood:
Roofs
• Reverse the main shed roof slope to lower the second-floor eave on the front
elevations;
• Simplify roof forms and slope directions; and
• Increase all roof overhangs.
Entry
• Extend the first-floor roof eave across the entry. Some area above the entry could
be open to the sky since the entry plan recess is deep.
Materials
• Eliminate the wood siding except on the garage door and low wall; and
• Use roofing that is more consistent with other homes in the immediate
neighborhood.
On June 21, 2018, the applicant submitted a letter of justification responding to the
concerns and recommendations of the architectural consultant (Exhibit 9) and updated
project plans (Exhibit 12), which include a neighborhood study (Sheets A1.2a and A1.2b)
and a streetscape (Sheet A1.3) illustrating the compatibility of the project’s massing and
scale with that of neighboring residences. In the letter of justification, the applicant
provides a summary of the revisions to the design; clarification on their consideration of the
surrounding neighborhood; discussion of an adjacent project utilizing contemporary
modern architecture on a county parcel located within the immediate neighborhood at
PAGE 6 OF 9 SUBJECT: 15921 ROCHIN TERRACE/S-18-002 DATE: JULY 20, 2018
N:\DEV\PC REPORTS\2018\Rochin Terrace, 15921 - 07-25-18.docx 7/18/2018 7:48 AM
15902 Rochin Terrace; and the following justifications for the form and materials of the
residence:
Roofs
• The intermediate first-floor roof offsets the second-floor eave on the front
elevation;
• The low horizontal profile of the shed roofs minimizes the height and blends in with
the site; and
• Long overhangs were emphasized.
Entry
• The first-floor roof over the recessed entry has an open rafters design.
Materials
• The natural wood material would soften the appearance of the home, ties it into its
surroundings, and reflects the common architectural element of the neighborhood;
and
• The standing seam metal roofing of the low profile shed roofs is environmentally
friendly and increases the roofs’ strength and durability.
The project proposes a contemporary modern architectural design which responds to the
context of the surrounding neighborhood subdivisions. The RDG state that, in the context
of a design’s neighborhood compatibility, “the greatest attention will be given to the
immediate neighborhood where nearby home owners are most likely to be confronted with
the new house on a daily basis, and where other residents driving by are most likely to see
the new structure in the context of the nearby homes.” The RDG also include some
consideration of the surrounding neighborhood, although less weight is given in the
consideration of house styles located at a greater distance from a project site. The RDG
emphasize neighborhood compatibility “with the recognition that some change is
inevitable, may be an improvement to the existing structures and/or neighborhood, and
may be desired by the neighborhood.”
Access to the subject property is made via one route (Linda Avenue), along which
surrounding neighborhood residents driving by will experience a variety of architectural
styles, including: ranch, Mediterranean, Tudor, and modern. Once in the immediate
neighborhood, the experience is predominantly mid-century ranch style homes; however,
existing home remodels are being completed in contemporary modern architectural styles,
and the surrounding neighborhood continues to include a variety of architectural styles.
When considering the variety of architectural styles and the compatibility of the project’s
massing and scale with that of the neighboring residences, staff believes that the proposed
residence could be compatible, and could both contribute to the diversity of architectural
styles and reinforce neighborhood development patterns.

N:\DEV\PC REPORTS\2018\Rochin Terrace, 15921 - 07-25-18.docx 7/18/2018 7:48 AM
Staff finds that the proposed project is consistent with the following RDG General Design
Principles:
• Encourage a diversity of architectural styles consistent with the neighborhood
context;
• Relate a structure’s size and bulk to those in the immediate neighborhood;
• Design with architectural integrity on all sides of the structure;
• Use materials that are consistent or compatible with the neighborhood;
• Use quality materials and workmanship;
• Select colors to blend with the neighborhood;
• Preserve mature landscaping whenever possible; and
• Design structures to be energy and water efficient and which take maximum
advantage of renewable energy resources, where appropriate.
C. Tree Impacts
The subject property has seven trees; one of which is a large protected tree (60-inch
Redwood), and two of which are protected trees (15-inch Mulberry; seven-inch Cypress).
The applicant proposes removal of the Mulberry and Cypress trees as they conflict with the
proposed development. The 60-inch Redwood would be preserved. The Town Arborist
visited the site to inspect the trees and evaluate potential impacts from the proposed
construction. In review of the 60-inch Redwood, the Town Arborist made several
recommendations for plan revisions to ensure the health of the tree. The applicant has
included these recommended revisions in the project plans. The Town Arborist indicated
that the trees proposed for removal are not high-quality trees and the required finding
under Section 29.10.0992(10) of the Town Code could be made as their removal and
replacement would enhance the Town’s urban forest. Tree replacement will be required in
conformance with the standards of the Town Code for residential lots less than 10,000
square feet.
The Town Arborist also indicated that standard tree protection measures would be
acceptable for this project. Staff has included conditions of approval that the project
comply with the tree protection requirements of the Town Code (Exhibit 3).
D. Environmental Review
The project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to the adopted Guidelines for the
Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act, Section 15303: New
Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, which includes demolition of an existing
single-family residence and construction of a new single-family residence in a residential
zone.

N:\DEV\PC REPORTS\2018\Rochin Terrace, 15921 - 07-25-18.docx 7/18/2018 7:48 AM
PUBLIC COMMENTS:
The applicant has provided a summary of their neighbor outreach, included as Exhibit 10.
Written notice of the public hearing for the project was sent to property owners and tenants
within 300 feet of the subject property on July 12, 2018. All public correspondence received
before 4:00 P.M. on July 17, 2018 is included as Exhibit 11.
CONCLUSION:
A. Summary
The proposed project would allow the applicant to construct a new single-family residence.
As proposed, the project would create a 2,696-square foot residence with a 479-square foot
garage. The project is being considered by the Planning Commission to determine whether
the proposed contemporary modern style residence would be compatible with the
surrounding neighborhood.
B. Recommendation
Based on the analysis above, staff recommends approval of the Architecture and Site
application subject to the recommended conditions of approval (Exhibit 3). If the Planning
Commission finds merit with the proposed project, it should:
1. Find that the proposed project is Categorically Exempt, pursuant to the adopted
Guidelines for the implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act, Section
15301: Existing Facilities (Exhibit 2);

Dear Los Gatos Planning Commission,
Thank you for taking the time to review our house design. We have been looking for a long
time for the perfect neighborhood in which to raise our girls, Skylar and Sydney. We wanted to
be in a neighborhood that was not only charming but also had a component of
architectural diversity. When we visited this property for the first time, we knew we had found
the right place. We saw the potential for making it beautiful.
Since we value being a part of a community, we met with the neighbors to share our
plans. We discussed how we planned to build an environmentally friendly, sustainable, and
contemporary house that can be integrated into the neighborhood. The neighbors that we
spoke with gave positive feedback and signed a letter of support. We look forward to working
together with you to make this the best house possible. Thank you for your time and
consideration.
Sincerely,
Patrick Hancir and Monica Zaucha

ISSUES AND CONCERNS
The proposed design creates a substantial dilemma. It is well designed, and would be a good addition to some neigh-
borhoods. However, in this context, it would seem to not be consistent with the Residential Design Guidelines and the
Town’s strong emphasis through those guidelines on neighborhood compatibility.
Some specific issues related to the Residential Design Guidelines include the following:
1. The Modern Architectural Style would not be consistent with the several General Design Principles.
• Encourage a diversity of architectural styles consistent with the neighborhood context.
• Design to blend into the neighborhood rather than stand out..
and Guideline 3.2.1 Select an architectural style with sensitivity to the surrounding neighborhood
2. The metal and glass garage door emphasizes the garage, and would not be consistent with the General Design
Principles and Guideline 3.4.1. This might not be a significant issue during the day, but could be a jarring light
source at night - see day and night photos below.

Design Review Comments
January 22, 2018 Page 4
3. The large first and second floor windows on the front elevation would not be consistent with Residential Design
Guideline 3.7.2.
3.7.2 Match window types and proportions to the architectural style and to the surrounding neighborhood
3.7.3 Match window materials to the architectural style and to the surrounding neighborhood
4. The shed roof forms and metal roofing would not be consistent with Residential Design Guidelines which encour-
ages roof forms and slopes, as well as materials, to be similar to those of other homes in the immediate neighbor-
hood.
5. While there are other nearby homes with two-story masses at the front setback line, they are generally broken by a
section of roof at the first floor eave line. In this case there is no break at the first floor eave line except at the left
edge where the entry canopy extends for a short distance over the wall. The prominence of this facade element
would be increased by the presence of the large glass windows at the first and second floors.
RECOMMENDATIONS
As noted above, the house is well designed within its chosen architectural style, and the break up of the structure’s forms
would be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. It would, however, be a strong departure from the charac-
ter of the surrounding neighborhood. In the past when confronted with similar style and character conflicts, staff has
worked with the applicant to modify the design to be more sympathetic to the immediate neighborhood, That would be
my recommendation in this case.
However, should staff feel that this home in this neighborhood is acceptable, my recommendation would be to ad-
dress the issues identified above. The only issue above that I would feel comfortable retaining as currently proposed is
the shed roof forms. I believe those could be justified.
Sean, please let me know if you have any questions, or if there are other issues that I did not address.
Sincerely,
CANNON DESIGN GROUP

Design Justification
The Town's arborist recommended at least 30' of separation between the proposed house and the very
large redwood tree in the backyard. This drove the overall layout of the house, including the "L" shape at the
back of the property, in order to safeguard the welfare of the tree and the proposed house. During the design
process, the owners discussed the house plans with many of the neighbors in order to be sensitive and
responsive to their views and opinions.
There's a more direct alignment between our proposal and the adjacent homes' elevations after the
first-floor plate was lowered from the previous submission. Additionally, the proposal is to have about +- 25'-
3” of maximum height from existing grade, thus keeping a low profile compared to the taller buildings in the
adjacent lots (please see streetscape A-1.3). Given the lower ground level of the property and the shed roof
configuration of the house, neighborhood scenic views can be preserved and mostly undisturbed. The 0.31
FAR is compatible with the neighborhood. Additionally, the horizontal extension of the house matches those
of the neighborhood.
Since the two-story houses in the neighborhood strongly emphasize the presence of an upper level and
a lower level, we introduced an intermediate first floor roof to offset the masses. Each part of the house's two
street elevations either step back or up. The elimination of any two-story surfaces, coupled with the second
level's offset from the first floor, helps to break the bulk of the home into separate lower and upper elements.
This ties the house to the nearby single-story ones, while mimicking the treatment that the existing two-story
houses have and still remaining compatible with the adjacent structures.
The owners desired an open floor plan with double height volumes to bring as much natural morning
sun as possible into the main living area and kitchen. The front windows' proportions are similar to those of
the rectangular sliding glass door on the adjacent house (15905 Rochin Terrace), with a thoughtful proportion
of 7/8 that also relates well to other existing structures in the extended neighborhood. Operable clerestory
windows will provide natural ventilation and cool the house.
The decision to employ standing seam metal roofing stems from the knowledge that it is one of the
few truly environmentally friendly roofing systems on the market. It is made from recycled metal and is itself
completely recyclable. Traditional roof materials include asphalt and petroleum-based products, which are
much more difficult to recycle properly. And since metal roofs do not crack, shrink, erode, perforate, or leak,
they offer exceptional durability and longevity compared to traditional roof materials. Standing seam metal
roofing material will never require any maintenance, is much more fire-protective and leak-proof, and will give
the roof planes a taut, straight profile.
Additionally, standing seam metal roofs also integrat e extremely well with solar panels. As Appendix B
shows, the integration is so good that the metal roof itself is not even visible. The owners plan on covering a
large percentage of the roof surfaces with these solar panels. But even if there weren't any solar panels, the
metal material wouldn't really be visible from the two roads around the house, given that, for the mos t part,
the roofs slope toward the back of the property. They offer a horizontal profile at the front of the house and
are not very apparent.
There has been a trend in Los Gatos in recent years towards a more Contemporary design with shed
roofs and/or flat roofs. In fact, the house across the street (15902 Rochin Terrace) is currently being
remodeled to be Contemporary with mostly flat roofs. One advantage of these roof designs is to present a
much lower profile. This reduces the perceived mass and bulk of the second story as well as the house overall.
It also goes a long way towards preserving and respecting the scenic views for the neighbors.
Long overhangs and gently sloped roofs are other elements that we employed. The shed roof shapes
move away from the more typical gables and hip designs, but they mimic those same slopes. Also, the shed
roofs are really only installed at the upper level and are not very visible from the street. The first-floor
wraparound roof on both sides has a conventional hip corner transition. To a person walking around the
house, that more traditional approach is what would appear as a first impression.
We have taken great care in how this design meshes with the neighborhood. The eaves will have a
wooden boxed tongue and groove soffit underside at the upper level where the roof eaves are more visible,
while the first-floor roof will have an open rafters design. The roof edges will have a fascia and a trim
articulating their profile that relates with the traditional detailing of the nearby roofs. (Please see material
board and sheet A-4.0 for an eave detail.) All of the colors chosen are earthy tones, with the purpose of
blending with the very green setting and the adjacent homes. The exterior materials will consist of smooth,
earthy colored stucco, dark wood-aluminum clad windows and exterior doors, and some natural cedar siding
accent walls.
Most materials will be low or VOC-free. The heating-cooling system will employ radiant surfaces. The
landscaping will have xeric features. We intend to plant new 24" box screening trees for privacy screening at
the rear of the property to lessen the impact of the rear facing (Western side) balcony and to be respectful of
any privacy concerns of the adjacent neighbor. We have even devised sparse side windows to preserve
neighbor privacy.
A great deal of thought and consideration has been employed in designing this house while remaining
sensitive to the character of the overall neighborhood and the wishes of its residents. The owners have spent
a lot of time talking with the surrounding neighbors about our proposed design, and we very much appreciate
their ideas and input. Many of them are enthusiastic about the current design and have signed our attached
letter of support.
We welcome your comments.
Sincerely,
Davide Giannella – Acadia Architecture

I reviewed the drawings, evaluated the site context and prepared a review letter in January. I have previously reviewed
two other nearby homes in this neighborhood. My comments and recommendations on the revised design are as fol
lows:
NEIGHBORHOOD CONTEXT
The site is located in an established neighborhood with a mix of Ranch Style one and two-story homes. Photo
graphs of the site and nearby homes are shown on the following page.

ISSUES AND CONCERNS
In my January review letter, I noted that the proposed design created a substantial dilemma. It was well designed, and
would be a good addition to some neighborhoods. However, in this context, it would seem to not be consistent with the
Residential Design Guidelines and the Town’s strong emphasis through those guidelines on neighborhood compatibility.
Some specific issues related to the Residential Design Guidelines included the following:
1. The Modern Architectural Style would not be consistent with the several General Design Principles.
• Encourage a diversity of architectural styles consistent with the neighborhood context.
• Design to blend into the neighborhood rather than stand out..
and Guideline 3.2.1 Select an architectural style with sensitivity to the surrounding neighborhood
2. The metal and glass garage door emphasized the garage, and would not be consistent with the General Design
Principles and Guideline 3.4.1. This might not be a significant issue during the day, but could be a jarring light
source at night.
3. The large first and second floor windows on the front elevation would not be consistent with Residential Design
Guideline 3.7.2.
3.7.2 Match window types and proportions to the architectural style and to the surrounding neighborhood
3.7.3 Match window materials to the architectural style and to the surrounding neighborhood
4. The shed roof forms and metal roofing would not be consistent with Residential Design Guidelines which encour-
ages roof forms and slopes, as well as materials, to be similar to those of other homes in the immediate neighbor-
hood.
5. While there are other nearby homes with two-story masses at the front setback line, they are generally broken by a
section of roof at the first floor eave line. In this case there is no break at the first floor eave line except at the left
edge where the entry canopy extends for a short distance over the wall. The prominence of this facade element
would be increased by the presence of the large glass windows at the first and second floors.

Design Review Comments
May 15, 2018 Page 4
The applicant’s new drawings are their efforts at addressing those concerns. The two side-by-side sketches below show
the street facades in the January and current designs.
The major changes are shown in the illustration below.
In their resubmittal, the applicant provided a multi-page argument in support of the design. There are two elements of
the argument that I would comment on for staff and Planning Commission consideration. A great many of the argu-
ments are based on conditions in what they identify as the Extended Neighborhood. The Town’s Residential Design Guide-
lines address that issue as follows.
The greatest attention will be given to the immediate neighborhood where nearby home owners are
most likely to be confronted with the new house or addition on a daily basis, and where other resi-
dents driving by are most likely to see the new structure in the context of the nearby homes.
Recognition will be given to the fact that a house design which is appropriate in one neighborhood
may not be appropriate in another neighborhood. Some neighborhoods have a distinctive character
and scale while others are much more mixed and transitional. In addition, some houses were con-
structed with little consideration to the neighborhood architectural style or its site characteristics.
Others were remodeled with little sensitivity to the existing architectural style. These aberrations
will not be considered when analyzing a neighborhood. The presence of significantly different house
styles or large scale houses located at a greater distance from the applicant’s site will be given less
weight than the immediate neighborhood.
With regard to the Immediate Neighborhood, in this instance the homes are all of a similar Ranch Style and generally
have the following common characteristics:
• Simple gable and hip roofs.
• Substantial roof overhangs
• Entries under a first floor roof eave.
15921 Rochin Terrace
Design Review Comments
May 15, 2018 Page 5
In the applicant’s narrative, several arguments are made based on the form and design of the nearby home at 15902
Rochin Terrace which has been approved for an addition. In my judgment, the design of the additions (previous and
currently being implemented) fall within the category of “aberrations” as noted in the Residential Design Guidelines.
They are neither sympathetic to the neighborhood nor to the original home design. I would find it difficult to use that
example for justification of any specific design approach or details.
In looking at the new drawings, I noted the following concerns in addition to the issue of architectural style.
• The multiple shed roof slopes seem very busy and chaotic.
• The random use of wood siding does not seem to provide much unity to the design.
• There are multiple areas where wood siding is used on a single facade, but not carried around to adjacent facades
to terminate at an inside corner. This would not be consistent with Residential Design Guidelines 3.2.2 and
3.8.4.
• The metal roofing would seem out of character with the immediate neighborhood, and probably not consistent
with Residential Design Guideline 3.8.2.
3.8.2 Select materials that are sensitive to the surrounding neighborhood
• The street side facade does not seem to relate very well to the front facade - see sketch below.
RECOMMENDATIONS
I spent some time in studying alternative approaches to see if the design might be brought into greater compatibility
with the immediate neighborhood. There are limited options that I was able to identify, but there were a few things that I
could recommend for consideration if staff and the Planning Commission find that the general approach to the home is
acceptable. These are summarized on the following page.
15921 Rochin Terrace
Design Review Comments
May 15, 2018 Page 6
1. Reverse the main shed roof slope to lower the second floor eave on the front elevations.
2. Simplify roof forms and slope directions.
3. Increase all roof overhangs.
4. Extend the first floor roof eave across the entry. Some area above the entry could be open to the sky since the
entry plan recess is deep.
5. Eliminate the wood siding except on the garage door and low wall.
6. Use roofing that is more consistent with other homes in the immediate neighborhood.
Note: More study would be needed on the right side street-facing elevation and other elevations would need to be developed.
Sean, please let me know if you have any questions, or if there are other issues that I did not address.
Sincerely,
CANNON DESIGN GROUP

In our letter, we talked about the architectural diversity in the extended neighborhood. It was not our
intention to suggest that the extended neighborhood deserves more weight than the immediate
neighborhood. We only meant to make the case that in this particular instance, the extended neighborhood
should be given more weight than it normally would. This is due to the fact that it is secluded, has no through
traffic, and is relatively small. One must drive through the extended neighborhood in order to get to the
immediate neighborhood. There is also precedent for this. One of the immediate neighbors, the owners of
15930 Rochin Terrace, made the case for giving more weight to the importance of the extended neighborhood
in order to justify a large FAR for their remodel.
We also talked about the Contemporary remodel across the street in the immediate neighborhood.
We did not intend to imply that this one house reflected the style of the immediate neighborhood as a whole.
Rather, we wished to point out that there is some architectural diversity in the immediate neighborhood and
that our own Contemporary design would not seem out of place. The trend over the last decade in Los Gatos
has been towards more diversity in architectural styles, including the Contemporary style. This can be seen in
our own neighborhood. There were seven new houses built on Costances Court within the last decade or so,
and just about each one of them employs a different architectural style. There are currently three houses
under construction in the neighborhood, and each of them has a different style.
The Residential Design Guidelines seek to “encourage a diversity of architectural styles consistent with
the neighborhood context.” We enthusiastically agree with this mission and feel that this is accomplished by
featuring architectural elements within one’s style that are shared among many of the houses in the
neighborhood. We were extremely sensitive to this. Fitting architecturally with surrounding homes built in
different eras is not about passively mimicking the details of decades-old adjacent homes. Rather, one needs
to study and adopt the overall size and proportions, the way they sit relative to the site, the frontage widths
and setbacks, and the displacement of the floors. Some of the ways we accomplished this include:
• The intermediate 1st floor roof offsets the masses.
• The 1st floor wraparound roof on both sides has a conventional hip corner transition.
• The eaves have a wooden boxed tongue and groove soffit underside at the upper level where the
roof eaves are more visible, while the first-floor roof has an open rafters design.
• The roof edges have a fascia and a trim articulating their profile that relates with the traditional
detailing of the nearby roofs.
• Long overhangs were employed.
• The shed roof shapes move away from the more typical gables and hip designs, but they share
those same slopes.
• All of the colors chosen are earthy tones, with the purpose of blending in with the very green
setting and the adjacent homes.
Throughout the design process, we incorporated the recommendations of the Town’s Planning
Department and the Town’s Consulting Architect. We also held many conversations with our neighbors. We
worked hard to be sensitive to their thoughts and to the surrounding area. In our opinion, our design respects
the architectural elements of the neighborhood while also adding to its character.
We welcome your comments.
Dear City of Los Gatos Planning Department,
We met with many of our neighbors. We showed them our preliminary house design and asked for
their thoughts and ideas. The following neighbors would like to show their support for our proposal.
Thank you very much!

Dear Mr. Mullin,
RECEIVED
JUL I 6 2018
TOWN OF LOS GATOS
PLANNING DIVISION
I wish to write to you today to express my opposition to the proposed development.
I am unable to attend the public hearing due to the fact I have a planned vacation
during that period of time that was planned well over 6 months ago. I live in the
house that is directly across the street to the proposed house.
I am opposing the construction of the house since the applicant is proposing to use a
flat-roofed architecture. None of the houses in the City of Los Gatos in the
neighborhood have flat roofs.
I am excited the applicants and going to redevelop the property, but I would request
the town insist the applicant pitch the roof to make it conform to the neighborhood.
If you have any questions, I can be reached at karl@proftouch.com .

Dear Planning Commission:
l have received notification of our new neighbor's remodel Application S-18-002 address at 15921
Rochin Terrace, Los Gatos 95032. This property is directly opposite my home at 15911 Rochin Ct.
I have met the new owner Monica, and very much look forward to having her and her family as our
neighbors!
However, I cannot support their current architecture design because it does not in any way fit in with the
look and feel of our neighborhood. This proposed replacement structure is in no way compatible with the
predominant architectural style of the neighborhood. The ultra modern, stacked rectangle structure, and
flat rooftops are nothing like the quaint, traditional style of the rest of our neighborhood. The newest
homes built in 2014 on adjacent Constances Ct. are all compatibly designed in this traditional style.
It is crucial to note that the nearby modern design of the property at 15900 Rochin Terrace is NOT in the
town jurisdiction, but rather in the county jurisdiction, and is therefore exempt from compliance with the
Los Gatos Town Code and guidelines. Therefore, it CANNOT be considered when evaluating this
application's harmony and compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood.
Thank you very much for your careful consideration of these important factors.

Reference: PLANNING APPLICATION 523-25-009 for 15921 Rochin Terrace
Dear Mr. Mullin:
I write in strong support for the planning application above. I have examined the plans and know the
site well. I wish to offer my support to the proposal for the reasons outlined below.
I've lived in this neighborhood for 6 years, and I've seen tremendous, positive changes to the homes
in the area. Well-designed custom homes are being erected and large-scale remodels are taking
place. The neighborhood is becoming a blend of various styles-Tudor, Mediterranean, craftsman,
contemporary and transitional. It's this wonderful blend of styles that is adding interest, dimension
and value to our neighborhood.
In my opinion, the proposed design would be a great addition to the neighborhood. There are
contemporary homes in the area, including mine, which is far more contemporary than the design
proposed for 15921 Rochin Terrace. The trend for contemporary homes reflects where we live-the
Silicon Valley-an innovative and forward-thinking area.
I do appreciate your consideration of this letter. Please feel free to contact me if you have any
questions or need any additional information.
Sincerely,
Stacey Bossert

PROJECT INFORMATION
1.The allowable FAR for all structures (excluding
garages) on lots between 5,000 S.F. and
30,000 S.F. shall be determined by the
following formula:
FAR = .35 - ( [ A - 5 ] x .20)
25
where:
A is the net lot area
in thousands
of S.F. (e.g. 7,500 S.F. is written as 7.5)
2.The allowable FAR for a garage on lots
between 5,000 S.F. and 30,000 S.F. shall be
determined by the following formula:
FAR = .10 - ( [ A - 5 ] x .07)
25
Site area: 8,560 Sq.Ft.
House Floor Area
.35-([8,560-5]x .20)= 0,32152
25
FAR= 0.32152
0.32152 x 8,560 = 2,752 max floor area
Garage Floor Area
.10-([8.560]x.07)= 0,090
25
Maximum Garage Size Calc.
0,090 x 8,560=771 max garage floor area
TREE PLAN: INTENT IS TO MITIGATE PROPOSED TREE REMOVAL
WITH PAYMENT OF IN-LIEU FEES.
