Reestablishment of policy re development of property on Laurel Way Report of City Manager and Director of Public Works 2/19/85 attaching letter from John L. Scott of 1/29/85 Director of Public Works Addiego presented the subject report and referred to a transparency of the Laurel Way neighborhood indicating the property where John Scott wishes to construct a home. In response to question, Mr. Addiego said that the unimproved road is in the City but is a private road, never having been dedicated to the city, noting that previous property owners protested an assessment district to bring the road up to City standards for streets, water and sewers, and that, therefore, no building permits have been issued as a matter of Council policy. John L. Scott, Los Gatos, owner of property at 3747 Laurel Way, said that he was not aware when he purchased the property of Council policy with regards to not issuing building permits for the area, stating he had purchased from the previous owner rather than through a realtor. Mr. Scott said he was willing to sign a deferred improvement agreement indicating his willingness to participate in the cost of the needed improvements at such time as construction might begin and also that he is willing to contact property owners to determine if there is any interest in establishing an assessment district.
