To: Mayor and City Council Members
Chairman and Planning Commissioners
From: Steve Piasecki, Director of Community Development
Prepared by: Vera Gil, Senior Planner
Date: October 18, 2005
Subject: Director's Minor Modification, DIR-2005-30, to operate office, medical and
pharmacy uses at an existing office building, which creates a parking deficit
and need for a parking management plan.
Chapter 19.132 of the Cupertino Municipal Code allows for administrative
approval of minor changes in a project. The Director reports his decision
to the City Council and Planning Commission in time to allow an appeal
of the decision within fourteen calendar days.
DISCUSSION:
The applicant, Kaiser Permanente, proposes to occupy an existing office building
located at 19000 Homestead Road. The property is zoned P(MP) or Planned Industrial
Zone which allows the proposed uses of administrative office, medical office and an
incidental pharmacy as long as the uses can meet the parking requirements outlined in
the Parking Ordinance, Chapter 19.100, of the Cupertino Municipal Code.
The Parking Ordinance requires a ratio of 1-space/175 sq. feet for medical use, 1/285
for administrative office and 1/250 for the pharmacy. Utilizing these parking ratios,
the applicant should provide 505 spaces instead of the existing 369 spaces. To address
the deficit, the applicant is proposing to provide valet parking until January 2006. In
January 2006, the applicant will provide a second parking demand study where
demand will be measured for a two-week period. If the study continues to show a
parking deficit, the property owner will secure additional parking, continue the valet
parking program or propose a parking management plan that encourages commuting
or shuttling to the site.
ACTION:
The Director of Community Development approves the modification.
This approval of the modification is effective October 18, 2005. The fourteen-calendar
day appeal period will expire on October 30, 2005.
