SECTION I: PROTECT DESCRIPTION
Application No.: ASA-2012-12
Applicant: Tracey Meng
Location: 22560 Alcalde Road (APN #342-16-146)
SECTION II: FINDINGS
WHEREAS, the Administrative Hearing Officer of the City of Cupertino received an application
for an Architectural and Site Approval to allow the enclosure and conversion of a 217 square foot
second floor balcony into habitable space at an existing duplex located in an R-2 zoning district.
WHEREAS, the Administrative Hearing Officer finds:
1. The proposal, at the proposed location, will not be detrimental or injurious to property or
improvements in the vicinity, and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, general
welfare, or convenience;
2. The proposal is consistent with the purposes of Chapter 19.168, Architectural and Site Review,
of the Cupertino Municipal Code, the General Plan, any specific plan, zoning ordinances,
applicable planned development permit, conditional use permits, variances, subdivision maps
or other entitlements to use which regulate the subject property including, but not limited to,
adherence to the following specific criteria:
a) Abrupt changes in building scale have been avoided. A gradual transition related to height
and bulk is achieved between new and existing buildings;
b) The materials, textures and colors of the proposed addition harmonizes with adjacent
development by being consistent or compatible with design and color schemes, and with the
future character of the neighborhood and purposes of the zone in which they are situated.
