proposed shopping center to be located on Sunol Boulevard. Mr. Miller indi-
<br />cated the applicant would be agreeable to a Conditional Use Permit for a
<br />limited time. Mr. Clarence Gribbin, real estate broker, noted that Sunol
<br />Boulevard would be widened eventually, thus easing the traffic problem. Mr.
<br />Gribbin indicated that though the nursery was not similar in use to the existing
<br />type of developments, its location would be cleser to town than to the Kaiser
<br />Plant. Mr. Gribbin continued that the property in the past has not been mar-
<br />ketable for other than the proposed type of use. Mr. Gribbin stated about
<br />$26,000 would be invested for capital improvements initially, most of which
<br />would be retained in the upgrading of the property. About 6 months, he
<br />continued, would be required to accommodate the nursery for operation. Mr.
<br />castro repeated his thought that the proposed use was not in keeping with the
<br />type of facilities presently located in the area; also that new industry
<br />interested in the immediate area would be discouraged if such conditional uses
<br />are allowed. Upon motion of Chairman Antonini, seconded by Commissioner Arnold,
<br />and carried, the public hearing was closed. Zt was noted that a. rezoning pro-
<br />cess would be needed under the new Zoning Ordinance for this use, as it does
<br />not allow conditional use permits in the I-P District. Commissioner Plato
<br />felt the access road should be improved, allowing more parking. UPON MOTION
<br />OF COMMISSIONER GARRIGAN, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER PLATO, AND CARRIED, THE
<br />APPLICATION UP-68-4 WAS CONTINUED TO THE NEXT REGULAR MEETING OF MAY 8, 1968,
<br />WITH THE APPLICANT'S CONSENT, TO ALLOW STAFF TO PREPARE CONDITIONS ON ROAD
<br />IMPROVEMENTS.
<br />Sc.) V-68-6, Fremont Savings and Loan
<br />Chairman Antonini opened the public hearing on the application of Edward M.
<br />Devan, 41585 Covington Drive, Fremont, for a Variance to Section 8.500 to
<br />allow the construction of a 7 unit apartment building to encroach 5 feet
<br />into the required front yard setback; said property commonly known as 4801
<br />Harrison Avenue. Mr. Castro stated the plan had been revised considerably
<br />since the first submittal; indicating the reason for the Variance encroachment
<br />into the front yard setback was to allow more width in the one bedroom unit.
<br />Mr. Castro indicated that some conditions on the first unit which were not
<br />met have been placed on the proposed unit, including the requirement for street
<br />trees. Both units are owned by Fremont Savings and Loan, Mr. Castro noted.
<br />Upon motion of Chairman Antonini, seconded by Commissioner Garrigan, the
<br />public hearing was closed. The Commission expressed concern that the land-
<br />scaping would not be maintained, and that possibly developments should be
<br />conditioned to maintain landscaping. Upon motion of Commissioner Garrigan,
<br />seconded by Ghairman Antonini, the following Resolution was adopted by unani-
<br />mous vote:
