Ordinance 3
' CITY OF� CUPERTINO .: July 8,, 1976 -
CONCEPTUAL. ZONING� PLAN .
FOR THE. "TAUBMAN" PROPERTY
�, The• purpose of. this t.documen is- to..delineate policies for: the future_ development
•of a 20t: acre property- located adjacent to and. westerly of.Foothill Boulevard
opposite the interstio . of Alpine Drive 'and Foothill Boulevard. The, property •
is more- clearly defined by the map: labeled Figure. I. The "Taubman.' Property
Conceptual Plan" was: initiated to. remedy the gross. inconsistency between the
property's. existing R3-2.2 zoning classification, and the 'General Plan designation
of residential as regulated by the- 1 acre. Foothill Modified Slope-Density Formula.
The Planned Development..Zoning District was chosen as the zoning tool to effectuate
. zoning consistency because the. zoning district permits a great deal of flexibility
procedurally and in. terms of site planning, which is extremely important in a
hillside situation.
This conceptual plan represents the initial step in the approval process for.
subsequent development of the subject property. As-stated in Section 5..2 of the
Planned Development Zoning: Ordinance,,. a City initiated conceptual plan need not
contain all of the information. contained in a.privately submitted plan but shall
contain sufficient information. to define the land. use type, intensity,. primary
street system. and community design- objectives to guide the .property. owner in the.
. preparation of either- a supplemental conceptual zoning.plan. or a. use permit which
is. the second procedural step: in, planned development approval process. .
The Taubman. Conceptual Plan is. comprised of land development policies and. a:
.conceptual site plan.. Both. the site, plan. and policy statements are general.
The intent. of the site_ plan. is to define the land. use: type,.. a relatively broad.
• density range which. reflects.. the. approved General Plan, and general land use:
•
guides: to" aid the property owner and/or subsequent developer in the preparation.
of; a more:-definitive development proposal.
•
• Land' Use and Site Design Policies
•
The:: conceptual plan embodies: land use, and site and building design. policies which
have the same''force of law as• conditions of approval.. associated with, privately
submitted, and approved Planned Development Zoning,.Districts. The policies. or
conditions are general in' nature. More definitive conditions shall be developed.
when a subsequent private: development proposal is reviewed..
•
Conditions of Approval
I. The zoning approval. is based. upon the- zoning- sketch plan labeled Figure 1,
the conceptual development plan. labeled Figure 2, the 1-14- City of Cupertino
Standard Conditions: of Approval,, and the special. conditions of approval. .
enumerated below.
•
2. The: approved land use is single-family residential with an allowed intensity
density
of 0-2 dwelling units- per gross acre... The. precise development y
. and. pattern shall be: determined in. conjunction. with a subsequent privately
submitted conceptual plan zoning: amendment or a usepermit.
Subsequent
uent
e evaluated based- upon land use policycontained
proposals. shall be

ve
in the adopted General Plan.. A. single-familycluster development- with common
open, space and. a conventional single-family subdivision represent permissible
development patterns.
1of5
J ,
The following .criteria, shall.. be' used, in- addition to_adopted general plan`.
policy, to make a determination regarding density and site planning for
subsequent.. development proposals.
a. Building siting and: design shall be designed to conform to
the,natural contour of the land to provide outdoor private
yard space- for each residential dwelling and to ensure. _ .
privacy for dwellings outside of the: project boundary.
b. Public and-, private- roadways, driveways: and buildings shall be-
located and designed in a manner to minimize grading. Mass
grading;. of the: site is not permitted. Indigenous vegetation.
shall be utilized to stabilize graded areas:.. Vehicular access
is not limited to the access points delineated by Figure2.
c. Roadways, driveways and building sites shall avoid significant
trees.
d. A geologic investigation shall be conducted prior to review of a
definitive- plan. Said investigation shall aid in the determination
of density and site design- by evaluating the stability of the
proposed building sites• with respect to slope stability and seismic
hazards.. The report shall address itself to the_ following areas ,
of specific_ concern..
1.. A general statement of the geologic setting of the site
with respect to mapped traces of the Sargent-Berrocal
and/or Monte Vista faults.
2. Aa: investigation shall: be conducted to establish that
structures will not be placed: across an active rupture.
surface.. The method of,. investigation and its duration
should be described.
3... Evaluation of the site in terms of potential for slope-
failure-, particularly with respect to effects from.
grading activity.
4... An explicit statement of recommendations, to include any
mitigation measures designed to reduce levels of risk
resulting from geologic hazards..
e.. Building siting.. and: design shall be- designed to minimize vehicular
noise emanating. from Foothill Boulevard. The traditional sound wall
approach may- not be .acceptable because the site is elevated from
Foothill Boulevard and: a solid masonry fence: would detract from the:
rural character of the site. An acoustical engineer shall. evaluate
-
• the noise impact of Foothill Boulevard traffic on the site plan..:
3. A. subsequent development proposal fora the property may be required to provide
public access adjacent to or in close proximity to Heney Creek. The:
geographical scope of the public walkway- easement corridor shall be determined
in conjunction with refined privately: initiated conceptual zoning plan or
a definitive use permit plan..
