We were delighted to host Peter and Suzanne Muller as they visited our site today and reviewed our progress.
Leveraging Local Experience
Suzanne is a former member of the Los Gatos Planning Commission and, as a Commissioner, was involved in several high-profile initiatives in Los Gatos. After leaving Los Gatos, Peter and Suzanne moved to a beautiful home in Portola Valley with stunning views of San Francisco Bay and the Silicon Valley.
We had Peter and Suzanne over for dinner in April 2008 so they understood our Eichler home and our objectives. Throughout this project, Suzanne has been a mentor, providing us with insight and advice regarding the planning process and how to work successfully with the community through the approval project and then through construction.
Since it is a bit of a hike to Via Sereno for them, we asked them to visit our site on Saturday, just before dinner with Trixi and Wido. Suzanne and Peter arrived promptly at 5:00 pm. They had lots of questions and reviewed the site in detail. We received their approval and they promised to attend our next open house event.
Jo-Anne arrived just after 6:00 pm and joined us for a cold glass of Piper Sonoma. We toasted the progress to date.

After leaving the site, we had a fabulous dinner with Trixi and Wido in their home overlooking Los Gatos and the Silicon Valley.
