The total gross building area is 837,504 sq. ft. and the total area to be discounted is 52,500 consisting of 30,000 sq. ft. of Cafeteria space and 22,500 sq. ft. of extraordinary amenity space located in the atrium. The Planning Commission will forward recommended changes to the 1985 Amenity Space Calculations Policy during January 1990. She revised policy will provide better guidance to the applicant and the City regarding future decisions regarding the calculation of amenity space. 2) Design (Height and Setbacksl She Planning Commission generally endorsed the applicant's site plan and building design including the proposed 15 ft. + floor to ceiling `. heights which translated to an overall structure height of approximately 62 ft. from finish grade. However, the ComQmission suggested that the applicant terrace buildings C and D or remove a story from said buildings to reduce the potential for privacy intrusion. She Comiission also considered the option of lowering the building pad (8 + feet) for the easterly part buildings. The lowered pad will decrease building mass and reduce potential privacy intrusion. She Commission determined that a dense tree planting must be installed to screen the buildings and to minimize building mass and provide privacy protection for individuals standing in the rear yards of the homes which adjoin the development. Resolution No. 4234 12/11/89 Page -2- The Planning commission reviewed the traffic report and traffic iuproven=t strategy for the project. The Commission found the traffic report to be technically cavetent and endorsed the improvement strategy outlined in the City council report dated November 6, 1989. The last part of the second paragraph of Condition 1, street Widening, is to be deleted. The section relates to the need for irrevocable offer of dedication for lands necessary to conplete the improvement for the Mariani/De Anza intersection widening. The Planning Commission's recommendation assumes that the State of California will agree to complete the DeAnza Boulevard overcrossing widening, which will be locally funded by the developer and that the City will fund other listed improvements. The Commission erhasized the need to link the pace of building construction to construction of road improvements.
