Subject: North 40 now 20
We are very much in favor of a senior housing/continuing care facility on the remai ning l and of
the North 40 plan . We would like to down-size and stay in Los Gatos. Please add our name to
the growing list of people who would also approve and prefer that option for the remaining 20
acres. Good examples are Vi in Palo Alto and Stony Creek in Pleasanton.
Thank you,
Mimi and Eric Carlson

Subject: North 20
Dear council members,
I remain very concerned about retail and restaurant development at the North 20.
Anything greater than an additional 50,000 sq ft of retail/restaurant (on top of the 60,000 sq ft
that was approved on the other portion) will make downtown Los Gatos even less competitive.
A hotel is great, if it is high end (4 Seasons, Trump, or W Hotel -not Marriott). Assisted Living
and Long Term Care is also a great need to be filled, and the Terraces is a strong model.
When one recognizes that the North 40 appears to be totally exempt from the absurd rules you
have imposed on the downtown area, anything greater than a combined llOk sq ft of retail and
restaurant will be devastating.
Please also note, as a result oftown rules, a juice store (Urban Remedy) has taken more than 6
months to open its doors .
6 months to sell juice and salad . Explain how this makes any sense?
Please seriously reflect on the state of the downtown regulatory environment. Your decisions
are ruining the town.
Thank you,
Mark Millen
