Item No. 5 (continued) Richard E. Gardella, 541 Jefferson Avenue, representing Mr. Castagnola, summarized the matter and stated that his client does not believe a use permit is required, but will agree to use permit conditions relating to relocation or removal of the sign and to landscaping five feet in width on the E1 Camino Real frontage. His client objects to the architectural permit requirements involving elimination of the driveways and installa- tion of a new driveway fronting James Street, because of the cost.
