TOWN OF LOS GATOS PLANNING DIVISION
Whereas The Architecture and Site application for the above project will expire on December
19th, I would like to request an extension of the expiration date. The reasons for the delay include: •The Original Owners of the property have sold this property and the entitlements that
traveled with the property. It has taken some additional time to organize, develop the
Construction Documents/ Plans, develop a budget, obtain bids and value engineer the
project to meet the owner's budget as well as the intent of the approved plans.
•The Town's Building and Engineer Engineering Departments have completed their
review of the plans; all that is required are the BMP's that the Planning Dept. typically
signs off on prior to breaking ground. The project is fundamentally ready to break
ground but now heading into the winter months where it is not prudent or permitted to
begin grading the site given the existing site conditions. It is best to begin in the early
spring months.
•The Building Department has granted an extension to May 11, 2020.
