RESOLUTION NO. 896
OF THE ARCHITECTURAL AND SITE APPROVAL COMMITTEE OF
THE CITY OF CUPERTINO RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF ROOF -
MOUNTED APPURTENANCES FOR A PROPOSED RESTAURANT TO
BE LOCATED IN VALLCO FASHION PARK
PROPERTY OWNER: Vallco Fashion Park
APPLICANT: Benihana of Tokyo, Inc.
ADDRESS: 8685 N.W. 53rd. Terrace, Miami, Florida, 33131
LOCATION OF PROPERTY: Vallco Fashion Park -
FINDINGS:
The Architectural and Site Approval Committee finds as follows with respect
to this application:
1. That recommendation for approval of visible roof -mounted appurtenances,
in exception to Condition Three of ASAC Standard Conditions of
Approval, is based upon the following conclusions:
a. The unique interior design of subject restaurant precludes
strict compliance with Condition Three of ASAC Standard
Conditions of Approval.
b. Relocation of subject equipment to a proximity with reduced
• visibility levels can technically be achieved through extension
of lateral ducts; however, it is recognized that such a require-
ment may increase fire hazard potentials created by potential
cleaning and maintenance shortcomings.
1. The minor interruption of the Vallco roof line created by
units other that the primary kitchen exhaust element does
not warrant the increased fire hazard potentials posed by
their relocation.
2. Revision of the major kitchen exhaust unit location will
resolve the most significant visibility concern: of subject
application while minimizing 'f:ire'hazard.p'otentials
providing that the Chief Building Inspector concurs with
this recommendation.
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:
1-8. Architectural and Site Approval Standard Conditions to the extent
that they do not conflict with the special conditions enumerated
herein. In the eventt-a conflict does exist, the special conditions
as enumerated herein shall apply:
9. The the recommendation of approval is based on Exhibits B-1 and
B-2 of this application except as may be amended by conditions
contained in this resolution.

Resolution No. 896 (continued)
10. The proposed blue exterior tile roof color is not approved. The
roof treatment of.subject application is continued to permit the
applicants to develop a proposal which achieves a significant
degree of harmony with the existing Vallco Fashion Park theme.
11. Wall -mounted signing for subject restaurant is not approved at
this time. The applicant shall submit a signing proposal to
ASAC in conjunction with presentation of the the roof treatment.
"Said elements shall be compatible in nature.
12. The location of appurtenances depicted on Exhibit B-1 is approved,
with the exception that the major kitchen exhaust element shall
be moved away from the parapet to the greatest extent possible,
subject to review and approval of the Chief Building Inspector.
All necessary fire prevention measures shall be undertaken to en-
sure the propriety of this condition.
13. The peaked -roof skylight depicted in Exhibit B-1 is approved at this
time. The applicant agrees that said approval is contingent upon
the assumption that subject skylight is not visible to the public,
and that ASAC or its staff shall retain the authority to require
replacement of said skylight with a dome matching the appearance
of existing Vallco Fashion Park skylights, should subject sky-
light found to be visible after installment.
