Walter liard, General Manaser. V...Uco Park, requested that the Council
eliminate trip end constraints ond use the concept as stated in Mayor
Gatto's -.0.
Burrel Leonard, 10103 Randy Lane, also representing Vallco, read a
letter dated Boveaber19, 1982 pertaining to Vallco Park for the
record.
Hr. liard also presented to Council a reprint of a document entitled,
"Case Study on Vallco Park" dated 1972. He informed Council that a
~~tel in Vallco was critical. Re spoke in favor of the upper limit
plan and said he could negotiate for that limit.
Hr. Charles Bewaøn, Vice President, Governmental Relations, Chamber
of Commerce, stated that the Chamber was concerned with the inter-
mediate alternative as the size was not big eno~gh to satisfy the
economic ~rowth and flexibility needed in the community. He also ex-
pressed a ~oncern regarding the base as it may be too little. He felt
the size of the "pie" was important. He said that the tiered concept
has ~rit and would like to have a further review of it.
John Vidovich, representing five parcels on De Anza Boulevard, stated
that Cupertino is a conduit for other cities' traffic. He felt that
developers could help pay for traffic relief. He is asking a .5 to
.6 FAR on De Anza, approximately three stories. He did not feel that
citizens would object to such a building. He felt an upper tier that
was wide open would be difficult for developers. He also stated that
he felt Vallco was a positive element in Cupertino.
Mr. Brad Krouskup, representing Carl N. Swenson Co.. suggeste¿ that
prior to closure of the public hearing, staff review their worksheet
as presented. He spoke in favor of flexibility 50 that the community
can grow and change with the tlmes.

Dr. Joseph Brown, 29085 Pepper Tree Lane, asked what the basic goal
of the General Plan vas.
It was mved by CoUIIC. Sparks, seconded by Counc. Plun81 and ,..Hd
unanimously to close the public hearing.
Council discussion followed regarding the _110 received frCD _or
Getto and Director of Planning and DevelopMDt Sisko ArU. of coaca'D
expressed were lack of detailed direction and limits. It... n....tad
that there be specific guidelines should a developer wish to epproach
an upper Uait and that height liJa1ts should be specific in cereain
areas. A two-tiers approach with the present General plan a. the lover
level was rec~nded.
Discussion followed regarding potential impact on traffic in relation-
ship to what area is increase.! in density. Possible height liJa1tations
in various portions of the core area were suggested, i.e., Vallco up
to eight stories (except hotel). Town Center, eight stories. Øorth De
Anze, four stories; Crossroads Center, three stories, Stevens Creek
Boulevard, three stories. Other suggestions were the Crossroad. and
Stevens Creek Boulevard areas be l~ited to under five stories with
Vallco and lown Center over five stories.
It was IIOVed by Counc. Johnson, seconded by Counc. Sparks and passet
with Councilllll!llbers Plun81 a'ld Rogers dissenting to adopt a two-tiered
concept of develop-.nt with the existing Ceneral Plan as the hottoa
range and the Planning Co_iøsion proposal as the upper range. General
height liaits will be as proposed by the Planning CoWD1ssion with the
statement that these are guidelines and not an absolute restriction.
Therefore, a General Plan amendaent will DOt be necessary for ~eaøed
beiahts.
The undeveloped portions of Vallco sh:>ll be removed from "no develop-
.....t.. constraints, including trip ends.
Traffic level of service shall be at least a "D". If service is presently
above that level, it shall be maintained at its present leveJ.
Staff was directed to report back regarding undeveloped land outside
the core area~
It was moved by Counc. Sparks, seconded by Counc, Johnson and passed with
Counc. Plungy dissenting that no property shall have greater than 1.0 intensity.
That could be achieved through a 'I'D procedure, dependent upon benefits vs.
intensity (Vallco commercial and hotel are not included in this). The
General Plan map shall be revised to reflect the hotel site and gener:>l commer-
cial in Vallco. A statement shall be included regarding the sequence of
developme~t. Stelling shall be designated a minor collector from Stevens
Creek Boulevard south; definitions of the various street designations shall be
revised; a work program for the street network including implementation
process shall be submitted; the BMR program shall be reviewed; an all~ance
shall be included for condominium conversion; there will be no prioritieis on
items listed in the Park Element; the Mariani property will remain as resi-
dential, should owners wish a change of zoning they may return to Council for
a Ceneral Plan Amendment.
