Regarding: Assessor Parcel No. 362-31-3
Existing Lot Sim; 9,620 sf.
Dear Mrs. Massey,
P.O. Bo. 580
Cupertino, CA 9SOIS•0580
This letter is in response to our conversations of June 2, and June 9, 1991, regarding your ability
to construct a duplex on the above referenced parcel. The applicable ordinances include: Ordinance
Chapters 19.02 (Definitions), No. 19.08 (R-3), and 19.11 (Planned Development), enclosed. The parcel
is today zoned Planned Development Multi -Family Residential, and the General Plan designation is
Medium-Iligh Density Residential with a gross density of 10-20 dwelling units per acre.
The definition of a multi -family use is n site "for three or more dwelling units, which may be in
the saine building or in separate buildings on the same site." Currently a single family residence exists on
the parcel. In this instance, a duplex may be allowed, subject to retention of the single family residence
on the same parcel, and subject to meeting the General Plan maximum residential density and the
guidelines of Ordinances No. 19.11 and 19.08.
Stafrs major concern is whether the placement of the duplex can be achieved by meeting die Site
Dcvcloptncnl Regulations (19.08.060, 19.08.070) such as, setbacks, building coverage, parking and on.
site open space requirements. Also check your title report for easements which prohibit development.
The zoning requires a conditional use permit. The specific requirements are outlined in Chapter
19.11.070 (Definitive Development Plan) and 19. 11.100 (Archilectu" and Site Review). I have included
the application for a conditional use permit. If the application meets the zoning and general plan
requirements and a good plan is submitted, you will receive a favorable staff recornmcndalion but final
approval is granted or denied by the Planning Commission.
If the site development regulations and General Plan density cannot be met, you mnv want to
consider purchasing the adjoining property cast (362-31.4). According to Carmen Lynaugh, Public
Works Department (408) 2524505 extension 215, this parcel is available for purchase from the State or
California. Please call Carmen for a contact name and phone number. You should also contact flermie
Dacus, Public Works Department to determine whether roadway dedication will be required. Net lot wren
does not include parcel dedicated for roadway purposes.
If this adjoining parcel is included in the application a tentative parcel map is required to join the
parcels. The ruling fec for combined projects which are processed simultaneously is based ou the highest
rating. There is a v.paratc plan requirement fer tentative parcel maps (requirements enclosed).

No matter what type of application is ultimately filed, a noise study conducted by an acoustical
engineer would be required The engineer should report on the decibel levels from Highway 85 as It
relates to your proposed project and provide specific recommendations to your site and building design.
I hope this answers your questions. If you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to call
me at (408) 252-4505 extension 277.
Sincerely,
Michele Bjurman
Community Development Department
