DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT REPORT FORM
Application: M-2005-01
Applicant: Tom Sloan
Owner: Gregg Bunker
Location: 1375 South De Anza Boulevard
Agenda Date: April 26, 2005
Application Summary:
Modification to delete a condition of approval that requires providing additional
parking stalls on the adjacent property for use permit U-2003-03 (construction of six
condominiums and the addition of 1,825 square feet to an existing retail building).
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission modify the condition in accordance
with the attached model resolution.
BACKGROUND:
On April 12, 2005, the Planning Commission considered the application and continued
the item with the following directions for staff:
. Review the applicant's suggestion to modify the condition to require either
paving of 20 additional stalls on the adjacent commercial property or pay the
adjacent property owner (Yamagami Trust) the equivalent funds to improve the
parking lot; and
. Examine other alternatives.
The Commission urged the applicant to come to resolution with the adjacent property
owner with regard to the parking easement issues and asked for written documentation
explaining the suggested condition modification language.
DISCUSSION:
Staff has not received any written explanation or other alternatives from the applicant
since the last Commission hearing. Since the parking easement involves two private
parties, the City cannot dictate the terms and conditions of the private agreement. The
suggested modification language presented to the Commission by the applicant's
counsel at the previous hearing would require the Commission to dictate the terms of a
private agreement. Therefore staff is not supportive of it.
At this time staff recommends that the Planning Commission:
Modify the condition to require the applicant to work with the adjacent commercial
property owner to clarify the parking easement language by obtaining a written
I-I
Applications: M-2005-01
Wolf Camera Mixed-Use
April 26, 2005
confirmation from the Yamagami Trust (or representatives thereof) in accordance
with the attached model resolution.
The applicant has other options to pursue outside of the City's purview. Short of
obtaining an agreement with the adjacent property owner, the applicant can take the
matter to court and obtain an interpretation from the court on the meaning of the
parking easement recorded on the property. The applicant could also ask a Title
Company to insure that the subject property has no parking easement encumbrance on
it (title insurance). Staff is unsure if the Title Company will be willing to issue the
insurance given the ambiguity of the parking easement language. However, if the
applicant can obtain such insurance, the City shall be named as the beneficiary.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT REPORT FORM
Application: M-2005-01
Applicant: Tom Sloan
Owner: Gregg Bunker
Location: 1375 South De Anza Boulevard
Agenda Date: April 12, 2005
Application Summary:
Modification to delete a condition of approval that requires providing additional
parking stalls on the adjacent property for use permit U-2003-03 (construction of six
condominiums and the addition of 1,825 square feet to an existing retail building).
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission modify the condition in accordance
with the attached model resolution.
BACKGROUND:
On July 14, 2003, the Planning Commission approved the 6 new condominium units
toward the rear of the project site and approximately 1,825 square feet of new retail
space on the existing Wolf Camera building (U-2003-03). The project proposes 34
parking stalls in the parking garage (33 currently exist on the site) shared by the retail
and the residential uses.
Currently, there are ingress, egress and parking easements between the two properties.
Even though the two properties function independently in terms of parking and use,
both property owners have mutually agreed to share any incidental or inadvertent
customer parking. Sharing access and incidental parking is a common occurrence
between commercial properties with shared parking lot access or driveways. The
adjacent property owner (Yamagami Trust) was concerned that the proposed
development on the Wolf Camera site may compromise their customer's ability to park
on that site.
DISCUSSION:
The 6 new condominiums and 1,825 square foot commercial addition requires 20
parking stalls (2 stalls per unit & 1 stall per 250 square feet). The project was required to
provide 20 extra parking stalls, prior to the issuance of building permits, (beyond the
34 stalls proposed) either on the project site or on the adjacent commercial property to
offset the potential displacement of the incidental parking privilege (Condition #13).
The applicant is now requesting the deletion of this condition. To satisfy the concerns
of the adjacent property owner, staff recommends the condition be modified to require
the applicant to obtain a written confirmation from the Yamagami Trust that they have
no objections to the project as planned.
