SECTION II: FINDINGS FOR DEVELOPMENT PERMIT:
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Cupertino received an application for a Development Permit
as described in Section I. of this Resolution; and
WHEREAS, the Environmental Review Committee has reviewed an Initial Study and Mitigated
Negative Declaration and recommended approval; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on July 26, 2016 and recommended that the
City Council approve the application, subject to conditions, and adopt the Mitigated Negative
Declaration; and
WHEREAS, the necessary public notices have been given as required by the Procedural Ordinance of the
City of Cupertino, and the City Council has held at least one public hearing in regard to the application;
and
WHEREAS, the applicant has met the burden of proof required to support said application; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds as follows with regard to this application:
1. The proposed development, 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;
The project is consistent with the General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and the Heart of the City Specific Plan
and has been designed to be compatible with and respectful of adjoining land uses. Additionally, the
re levant mitigation measures will be incorporated as part of the CEQA review process to mitigate potential
impacts to a less than significant level. Th erefore , the project will not be detrimental or injurious to
Resolution No. 16-091 DP-2015-05 and EA-2015-05
properties or improvements in the vicinity, and will not be detrimental to the public health , safety, general
welfare, or convenience.
2 . The proposed development will be located and conducted in a manner in accord with the
Cupertino Comprehensive General Plan and the purpose of the City's zoning ordinances.
The proposed development is in conformance with the Cupertino General Plan as part of the Crossroads
Area within the Heart of the City Special Area. The Heart of the City area is envisioned as a well-planned
and designed commercial, office, residential development, with enhanced activity nodes, and safe and
efficient circulation and access for all modes of transportation between activity centers that help focus and
support activity centers. The Project provides housing units consistent with the Housing Element within
the General Plan. The Project has met the development standards as defined by the Heart of the CihJ
Specific Plan and the City Municipal Code such as heights, setbacks, and parking requirements.
The site is within a Planned Development Zoning District that allows General Commercial and
Residential ("P (CG, Res)"). Therefore, the proposed development is consistent with the purpose of the
City's zoning ordinance .
3 . The proposed development's residential density is consistent with the Cupertino Comprehensive
General Plan, including the Housing Element, and the remaining sites identified in the Housing
Element are adequate to accommodate the City's share of the regional housing need. (Findings
required by Government Code Section 65863 .)
As discussed above, the proposed development is in conformance with the Cupertino General Plan as part
of the Crossroads Area within the Heart of the City Special Area and provides housing units consistent
with the Housing Element within the General Plan. The Housing Element designates the site as being
appropriate for at least 35 dwelling units per acre, and with the requested density bonus, the Project would
be developed at an approximate density of 47 dwelling units per acre , in excess of the Housing Element's
requirement. Although the Housing Element designated the project site for 200 dwelling units, and only
188 dwelling units are proposed, the approval of fewer units would not negatively impact the City's ability
to accommodate its share of the regional housing need. The residential capacity of 1,400 new dwelling
units planned for in the Housing Element exceeds the City's Regional Housing Need Allocation (RHNA)
goal of 1,064 by 336 units . Therefore, even with the reduction of 12 residential units on the project site, the
City will still have capacity to produce at least 324 residential units more than its RHNA, accommodating
the City's share of the regional housing need .
4. The applicant has requested a density bonus. Pursuant to Cupertino Municipal Code Section
19.56.070, before approving an application that includes a request for density bonus, incentive,
parking reduction and/or waiver, the decision-making body shall make the following findings, as
applicable:
a) A finding that the residential project is eligible for the density bonus and any incentives,
parking reductions or waivers requested.
Eleven percent of the units will be affordable to Very Low Income households at affordable rent or
affordable housing cost, which entitles the project to a Density Bonus rate of 35 percent consistent
Cupertino Municipal Code Section 19.56.030 (A).
Resolution No. 16-091 DP-2015-05 and EA-2015-05
b) A finding that any requested incentive will result in identifiable, financially sufficient, and
actual cost based on the financial analysis and documentation provided .
No incentives are requested as part of the project, so the finding is not applicable.
c) If the density bonus is based all or in part on donation of land, a finding that all requirements
included Section 19.56.030C have been met.
The density bonus is not based on the donation of land, so the finding is not applicable.
d) If the density bonus is based all or in part on the inclusion of a child care facility, a finding
that all requirements included in Section 19 .56.030 (D) have been met.
The density bonus is not based on the inclusion of a child care facility, so the finding is not applicable ..
e) If the density bonus or incentive is based on a condominium conversion, a finding that all the
requirements included in Section 19.56 .030 (E) have been met.
The density bonus is not based on a condominium conversion, so the finding is not applicable .
£) If the incentive includes mixed-use development, a finding that all requirements including in
Section 19.56.40 (B) (2) have been met.
While the project is a mixed-use development, the density bonus is not based on the mixed-used
dev elopment as an incentive, so the findin g is not applicable .
g) If a waver is requested, a finding that the development standards for which the waiver is
requested would have the effect of physically precluding the construction of the housing
development with the density bonus incentives permitted.
No waiver is requested, so the finding is not applicable .
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
That after careful consideration of the initial study, maps, facts, exhibits, testimony and other evidence
submitted in this matter, subject to the conditions which are enumerated in this Resolution beginning on

Marina Plaza Project," prepared by PlaceWorks and adopted as Mitigated N egative Declaration EA-
2015-05, the following is an outline of mitigation measures that apply:
a. Mitigation Measure AIR-1: The project's construction contractor shall comply with the
following Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) Best Management Practices
(BMPs) for reducing construction emissions of fugitive dust (PMlO and PM2.5):
• Water all active construction areas at least twice daily, or as often as needed to control dust
emissions. Watering should be sufficient to prevent airborne dust from leaving the site.
Resolution No. 16-091 DP-2015-05 and EA-2015-05
Increased watering frequency may be necessary whenever wind speeds exceed 15 miles per
hour. Reclaimed water should be used whenever possible.
• Pave, apply water twice daily or as often as necessary to control dust, or apply (non-toxic) soil
stabilizers on all unpaved access roads, parking areas, and staging areas at construction sites.
• Cover all trucks hauling soil, sand, and other loose materials or require all trucks to maintain
at least two feet of freeboard (i.e., the minimum required space between the top of the load
and the top of the trailer).
• Sweep daily (with water sweepers using reclaimed water if possible) or as often as needed all
paved access roads, parking areas and staging areas at the construction site to control dust.
• Sweep public streets daily (with water sweepers using reclaimed water if possible) in the
vicinity of the project site, or as often as needed, to keep streets free of visible soil material.
• Hydroseed or apply non-toxic soil stabilizers to inactive construction areas.
• Enclose, cover, water twice daily, or apply non-toxic soil binders to exposed stockpiles (dirt,
sand, etc.).
• Limit vehicle traffic speeds on unpaved roads to 15 miles per hour (mph).
• Replant vegetation in disturbed areas as quickly as possible.
• Install sandbags or other erosion control measures to prevent silt runoff from public
roadways
b. Mitigation Measure AIR-2: During construction, the construction contractor(s) shall use
construction equipment fitted with engines that meet the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (US EP A)-Certified Tier 3 emissions standards for equipment of 50
horsepower or more. The construction contractor shall maintain a list of all operating
equipment in use on the project site for verification by the City of Cupertino Building
Division official or their designee. The construction equipment list shall state the makes,
models, and number of construction equipment onsite. Equipment shall properly service and
maintain construction equipment in ac~ordance with the manufacturer's recommendations .
The construction contractor shall also ensure that all nonessential idling of construction
equipment is restricted to five minutes or less in compliance with CARB Rule 2449. Prior to
issuance of any construction permit, the construction contractor shall ensure that all
construction plans submitted to the City of Cupertino Planning Department and/or Building
Division clearly show the requirement for US EPA Tier 3 or higher emissions standards for
construction equipment over 50 horsepower.
c. Mitigation Measure BI0-1: Nests of raptors and other birds shall be protected when in active
use, as required by the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the California Department of
Fish and Game Code . If construction activities and any required tree removal occur during
the breeding season (February 1 and August 31), a qualified biologist shall be required to
conduct surveys prior to tree removal or construction activities. Preconstruction surveys are
not required for tree removal or construction activities outside the nesting period. If
construction would occur during the nesting season (February 1 to August 31),
preconstruction surveys shall be conducted no more than 14 days prior to the start of tree
removal or construction. Preconstruction surveys shall be repeated at 14 -day intervals until
construction has been initiated in the area after which surveys can be stopped. Locations of
active nests containing viable eggs or young birds shall be documented and protective
measures implemented under the direction of the qualified biologist w1til the nests no longer
Resolution No. 16-091 DP-2015-05 and EA-2015-05
contain eggs or young birds. Protective measures shall include establishment of clearly
delineated exclusion zones (i.e., demarcated by identifiable fencing, such as orange
construction fencing or equivalent) around each nest location as determined by a qualified
biologist, taking into account the species of birds nesting, their tolerance for disturbance and
proximity to existing development. In general, exclusion zones shall be a minimum of 300 feet
for raptors and 75 feet for passerines and other birds. The active nest within an exclusion zone
shall be monitored on a weekly basis throughout the nesting season to identify signs of
disturbance and confirm nesting status. The radius of an exclusion zone may be increased by
the qualified biologist if project activities are determined to be adversely affecting the nesting
birds. Exclusion zones may be reduced by the qualified biologist only in consultation with
California Department of Fish and Wildlife. The protection measures shall remain in effect
until the young have left the nest and are foraging independently or the nest is no longer
active.
d. Mitigation Measure CULT-1: If any prehistoric or historic subsurface cultural resources are
discovered during ground-disturbing activities, all work within 50 feet of the resources shall
be halted and a qualified archaeologist shall be consulted to assess the significance of the find
according to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5. If any find is determined to be significant,
representatives from the City and the archaeologist would meet to determine the appropriate
avoidance measures or other appropriate mitigation. All significant cultural materials
recovered shall be, as necessary and at the discretion of the consulting archaeologist, subject
to scientific analysis, professional museum curation, and documentation according to current
professional standards. In considering any suggested mitigation proposed by the consulting
archaeologist to mitigate impacts to historical resources or unique archaeological resources,
the City shall determine whether avoidance is necessary and feasible in light of factors such
as the nature of the find, proposed project design, costs, and other considerations. If
avoidance is infeasible, other appropriate measures (e.g., data recovery) would be instituted.
Work may proceed on other parts of the project site while mitigation for historical resources
or unique archaeological resources is being carried out.
e. Mitigation Measure CULT-2: In the event that fossils or fossil-bearing deposits are discovered
during construction, excavations within 50 feet of the find shall be temporarily halted or
diverted . The contractor shall notify a qualified paleontologist to examine the discovery. The
paleontologist shall document the discovery as needed, in accordance with Society of
Vertebrate Paleontology standards (Society of Vertebrate Paleontology 1995), evaluate the
potential resource, and assess the significance of the finding under the criteria set forth in
CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5. The paleontologist shall notify the appropriate agencies to
determine procedures that would be followed before construction is allowed to resume at the
location of the find. If the project proponent determines that avoidance is not feasible, the
paleontologist shall prepare an excavation plan for mitigating the effect of the project based
on the qualities that make the resource important. The excavation plan shall be submitted to
the City for review and approval prior to implementation.
f. Mitigation Measure HAZ-la: The applicant shall hire the services of a Cal OSHA-certified
qualified asbestos abatement consultant to conduct a pre-construction assessment for asbestos
containing materials (ACMs). Prior to the issuance of the demolition permit, the Applicant
shall provide a letter to the City of Cupertino Planning Department from a qualified asbestos
Reso lution N o. 16-091 DP-2015-05 and EA -201 5-05
abatement consultant that no ACMs are present in the buildings. If ACMs are found to be
present, the hazardous materials shall be properly removed and disposed of prior to
demolition of buildings on the project site in compliance with applicable federal, State, and
local regulations, such as the EPA's Asbestos National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air

SECTION VI: CONDITIONS ADMINISTERED BY THE CUPERTINO SANITARY DISTRICT
Resolutio n N o . 16-091 DP-2015-05 and EA-2015-05
1. SANITARY SEWER
Based on the proposed use, it has been calculated that there would be an increase in sewer flow by
55 % over the existing use . This increase will or may have impact on downstream sanitary sewer
mains. Sewer mains along a portion of Stevens Creek Blvd . and Wolfe Road have been identified as
being at "capacity". Sanitary District will need to perform additional sewer capacity analysis and
determine deficiencies along Stevens Creek Boulevard. Apartments and hotel development increases
the peak flow significantly more than a commercial property, because commercial properties have a
parking period different than the residential/hotel developments. Analyses along Wolfe Road have
been completed and determined a need to install a parallel pipe, to which this project would also
need to contribute a pro-rata share of the improvements costs. At this time, it is believed that the
Valko Project will be constructing this parallel main.
2. SANITARY SEWER DESIGN PLANS
Improvements plans (both onsite and offsite) shall be approved b y the Cupertino Sanitary District.
Currently, District owns a sewer easement within the project limits. Depending on the final design,
