OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF CUPERTINO
STATING THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S POSITION REGARDING
ELIMINATION OF THE DRIVE-UP WINDOW FACILITY FOR
PHOTO DRIVE-UP.
•
Upon review of the proposed 4. 930 sq. ft. addition to the
existing Photo Drive-Up facility, the Commission has determined
that the drive-up window and access driveway thereto is
inconsistent with the South Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road Conceptual
Zoning Plan for the following reasons:
The Conceptual Zoning Plan requires an average 35 ft. landscape
area along Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road and 25 ft.. landscape area
along secondary streets including Wildflower Way.
The retention of the drive-through lane, in its present
location, interrupts the above landscaped areas and allows only
10 ft. of landscaping on Wildflower Way and roughly 12 to 15
ft. on Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road.
Additionally, the Commission finds the drive-through facility to
be inconsistent with the "Drive-Through Criteria" adopted by the
City Council in April 1984. Said proposal is inconsistent with
Aml the following criteria:
Visibility of drive-through lanes from public street areas
shall be minimized by locating stacking lanes behind buildings,
or extensive landscaped areas.
Drive-through lanes shall not be located in required perimeter
landscape setback areas adjacent to public streets.
A minimum landscaped area of 30 ft. measured from face of curb
of the public street to the outside edge of the drive-through
lane shall be maintained.
Also, as a part of testimony from adjacent property owners,
considerable concern was expressed relative to utilization of
adjacent residential streets by commuters and as "back door"
access to the commercial land use adjacent to Saratoga-Sunnyvale
Road. Consistent with the goal to protect residential
neighborhoods, the Commission suggests that the City Council hold
hearings regarding possible closure of Wildflower Way.
