Dear Mayor and Members of Council:
IGA O TACK
THANK YOU DA MERCI
GRACIAS OBRIGADO
We are supporting the idea for Phase 2 of North 4 project
to have a Community garden for residents of Los Gatos at large, because Los Gatos
does not have a Community garden, and a number of residents, like us, resign in
apartments and don't have the possibility to grow their own vegetables.
Sincerely, G. and R. Grossman, Los Gatos residents.

Subject: North 40 Specific Plan Moratorium Desk Item
Good Morning Mayor Rennie, Council & Staff
Unfortunately due to surgery I had yesterday I am not sure I will be able to attend tonight's
hearing. I urgently request that the moratorium for amendments on the Specific Plan be extended
for an additional 12 months to allow the Town & the majority of its residents to fully explore the
options for development.
The extension is crucial as we have yet to realize the effects of the approved Phase I slated to
begin shortly or truly explore amendment options. Traffic, congestion, impacts on the Town and
its services , unexpected or expected changes; all major and many adverse and must be
considered.
As we spend another summer (and winter) with our streets clogged, unable to get out of our
driveways ( or for myself to host open houses and try to make a living); it is imperative that we
take this respite to plan responsibly and use the time allotted to make intelligent decisions that
we will live with forever.
Thank you so much for your time & consideration

Subject: Please EXTEND the N40 moratorium
Dear Council members,
I am writing to implore you to extend the moratorium and or reject the amendments requested by
the developer to add more housing and ignore the height restrictions residents fought long and
hard for.
Please do not cave to the developer's increasing demands.
Once again-major, major, life altering decisions for our quality of life are being made by a
developer and in the middle of summer when many residents are unaware or unavailable to
attend hearings.
Please extend the moratorium for a minimum of 12 months to allow residents a full
understanding of the proposals and most importantly, for residents to live with the construction
& traffic once construction begins in a few weeks.
Please reject the developer's demands and extend the moratorium.
Thank you,
Patricia Elliot

Subject: North 40
Dear Council,
Please vote tonight to continue the moratorium. We should not be making these huge decisions
during the summer on such short notice. It seems like the Town is being extorted into accepting
the 55 foot height level in exchange for more open space.
We should also have the opportunity to see what the initial aspects of the first part of the
North 40 look like before committing ourselves to Phase 2.
Also, the developer will be busy on Phase 1 and a delay in approving Phase 2 will not hurt the
developer.
Dave Weissman.

Subject: Re: Amendments to North 40 Specific Plan
Dear Mayor Rennie, Vice Mayor Leonardis, Council Members, Ms Prevetti, and Mr Schultz,
Re. Item 12 in tonight’s council agenda, amendments to the North 40 Specific Plan.
I would respectfully ask that you extend the moratorium to enable further discussion on this subject. I
am aware that this is not the first time that this topic has been discussed however the contents are
complex and multiple discussions ought to be needed.
Additionally this is a time of year when many people including me are out of town and distracted by
vacation and therefore we might not receive their full input tonight.
Kind regards,
Nick Williamson
