Update the Heart of the City Specific Plan to reflect the changes adopted in the 2005 General Plan. (Continued from the August 26, 2008 Planning Commission meeting) RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission provide recommendations to the City Council on the draft of the updated Heart of the City Specific Plan following the Planning Commission study session. BACKGROUND: At the August 26, 2008 Planning Commission meeting, the Commission reviewed the draft of the updated Heart of the City Specific Plan and voted (5-0) to hold a study session on September 23, 2008, and invite the public to provide comments during the study session. The Commission approved a minute order informing the City Council of the Planning Commission decision to hold a study session to allow for public input and additional discussion on recommended amendments to the specific plan. Further, the Commission requested that Kelly Kline, Redevelopment/Economic Development Manager, be asked to attend the study session. On June 10, 2008, the Planning Commission first reviewed the draft specific plan. The Commission did not recommend changes to the document, but requested clarification on the proposed elimination of the prescriptive side yard setback requirements, examples of existing Heart of the City streetscapes, and discussion on whether bicycle racks should be incorporated into the specific plan. The Heart of the City Specific Plan update is a part of the 2008-2009 Work Program that the City Council adopted on February 19, 2008. The Council requested that the Heart of the City Specific Plan be modified to incorporate technical revisions reflecting the changes made to the 2005 General Plan. The Council also requested that the Planning Commission review and forward its recommendations to the Council. 1-1 Heart of the City Specific Plan Update Page 2 September 23, 2008 DISCUSSION: Fundamentals of the Heart of the City Specific Plan The Heart of the City Specific Plan was adopted in 1995 to guide future development and redevelopment of the Stevens Creek Corridor generally between Highway 85 and the eastern City limits near Lawrence Expressway. The purpose and overall goal of the plan for this area is to create a greater sense of place and community identity and to develop this area as a pedestrian-inclusive gathering place. The general policy framework for the Heart of the City area involves creating a link generally between the Crossroads area at the western boundary of the Stevens Creek Corridor, which encompasses the span of Stevens Creek Boulevard between The Oaks shopping center at Highway 85 to the City Center at N. De Anza Boulevard, to the eastern activity center of the Cupertino Square Mall and vicinity. The specific plan involves cultivating a link between these centers by providing development standards and design guidelines to promote land uses and development that focus and support the growth of these centers which include a mixture of commercial, office and residential uses along Stevens Creek Boulevard. The plan also involves connecting these centers by promoting the streetscape concept of a tree-lined landscaped parkway continuously along Stevens Creek Boulevard. The role of the Stevens Creek Boulevard Corridor is determined by the activity centers, as mentioned above, and the supporting uses and developments that are within the mid-blocks of these centers. Currently, there is a diverse mixture of uses and building forms along Stevens Creek Boulevard that vary from not only the specific plan, but also from each other, and particularly within the mid-block areas due to the nature of incremental development that occurs and has occurred along Stevens Creek Boulevard. The current specific plan virtually allows any variety of general commercial, office and residential uses along the street frontage of Stevens Creek Boulevard without much consideration for the compatibility of how these uses and .building forms relate to each other along the street frontages to create a uniform streetscape, and how such uses and building forms in mid-block support the activity centers. The Planning Commission may consider a discussion of these issues during the study session to determine whether the vision for the Stevens Creek Boulevard Corridor should be modified to address these issues. The draft of the updated Heart of the City Specific Plan currently proposes retail uses along the street frontages; however, the Commission may want to consider whether this is suitable, or if perhaps other uses, such as residential or office uses, may be appropriate along certain portions of Stevens Creek Boulevard in the mid-block areas to support the activity centers. Staff would like the Commission to consider how any new buildings should be oriented to have a frontage presence along Stevens Creek Boulevard to integrate with the streetscape along the corridor. 1-2 Heart of the City Specific Plan Update Page 3 September 23, 2008 The draft of the updated Heart of the City Specific Plan maintains these fundamental purposes and goals. The updating of the plan primarily involves incorporating changes that reflect the 2005 General Plan and additional language to provide further clarity in the plan. New concepts and language have been incorporated to also promote better usability of the plan (e.g. elimination of prescriptive side yard setbacks to support the development of odd or narrow lots) without compromising the fundamental purposes and goals of the plan. Proposed Changes in the Draft Plan In order to facilitate the Commission's discussion of the changes proposed in the draft specific plan, staff has outlined the changes below based on the reasons for the changes: 2005 General Plan C Maps Policy Framework Section CirculationjParking Goals onslstency A. Updates the Land Use Map and Streetscape Concept Plan to reflect the new boundaries. A. Updates the Land Use/Economic Goals and Policies to incorporate the General Plan policy to allow for mixed- use commercial and residential development "if . the residential units provide an incentive to develop retail use, if the development IS well designed, financially beneficial to the Cupertino, provides community amenities and is pedestrian oriented." B. Updates office and commercial development allocation numbers. C. Updates the maximum residential density allowance to 25 dwelling units per acre. This replaces the preVIOUS density allowance of 35 dwelling units per acre. D. Incorporates new references for activity centers, including the Crossroads area, subareas of Stevens Creek Boulevard (east, west and central), and other properties north and south of Stevens Creek Boulevard within the Heart of the City area. This replaces the previous references to activity centers identified as the Oaks/De Anza College area, the Crossroads/City-Civic Center and Valleo Fashion Park and Vicinity. A. Includes language from the General Plan as a new strategy to "evaluate options on Stevens Creek Boulevard to Improve the pedestrian environment by proactively managing speed limits, their manual and automated enforcement and traffic signal synchrony." B. Incorporates language from the General Plan as a new strategy to "require shared parking agreements in the Crossroads area, with overall parking standards reduced to reflect shared parking arrangements." 1-3 Heart of the City Specific Plan Update Page 4 September 23, 2008 Development Standards A. Updates the maximum building height allowance to 45 feet with a clarification that rooftop mechanical equipment and utility structures may exceed height limitations if they are enclosed, centrally located on the roof and not visible from adjacent streets. This replaces the previous maximum of three floors or 36 feet. ConsolidationfRemovin DevelopmentjDesign Standards Streetscape Design New Conce tsfN ew Lan Development Standards Re etition and Obsolete Lan a e A. Consolidates standards into one section generally applicable to all development types to eliminate repetition. Where certain types of developments have specific development! design standards, they are clearly identified in the sections (e.g. common open space re uirements for commercial! office versus residential . A. Removes sections on Street Furnishings, Civic Landmarks and Gateway Entrances since the street furnishing examples have never been enforced and the concept of gateways at the eastern and western end of the Heart of the City area is obsolete. B. Removes the Frontage Renovation Conditions illustrations to eliminate confusion for users. a e A. Eliminates prescriptive side yard setback requirements to encourage better relationship of developments to adjacent buildings and streetscapes. This would also assist development of narrow and odd shaped lots to develop or redevelop. B. Includes locational restrictions for a list of commercial uses along the street frontage of Stevens Creek Boulevard. C. Includes example of how net density as a "twenty-five percent (25%) or greater increase in floor area or a 25% or greater change in floor area resulting from use permit or architectural and site approval within twelve (12) months. D. Incorporates clarifications on building height measurements, use of residential allocation for residential and residential mixed-use projects, encroachment of elements (e.g. chimneys) into required setbacks, driveway setbacks, parking standards, landscape screening and building design. 1-4 Heart of the City Specific Plan Update Page 5 September 23,2008 Development E. Provides new section on Building Access that requires Standards Continued direct pedestrian access from Stevens Creek to the main building entrance. F.

(Continued from the June 10, 2008 Planning Commission meeting) RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council review and approve the updated Heart of the City Specific Plan as it has been presented in its finished design format. BACKGROUND: On June 10, 2008, the Planning Commission reviewed and commented on the draft of the updated Heart of the City Specific Plan. The Commission did not recommend changes to the document, but requested clarification on the following items pertaining to the specific plan: a. Provide examples of existing Heart of the City streetscapes that are consistent with the streetscape requirements. b. Discuss whether a requirement for bicycle racks should be incorporated into the specific plan. c. Clarify why the prescriptive requirements for side yard setbacks are being eliminated. The Heart of the City Specific Plan update is apart of the 2008-2009 Work Program that the City Council adopted on February 19, 2008. The Council requested that the Heart of the City Specific Plan be modified to incorporate technical revisions reflecting the changes made to the 2005 General Plan. The Council also requested that the Plam1ing Commission review and forward its recommendations to the Council. DISCUSSION: Heart of the City Streetscape Examples The Heart of the City Specific Plan streetscape standards have been applied to some of the more recent developments within the City, including the Metropolitan mixed use commercial/residential development and the Whole Foods supermarket site. These 1-6 Heart of the City Specific Plan 'u pdate Page 2 . August 26, 2008 developments have incorporated the Heart of t~e City streetscape standards reflecting all. aim to aclueve the "orchard grove" .appearance \vith a COIltinuouS landscaped parkway along tIle curbside 'planted with.trees, a separated pedestrian sidewalk, and a landscape parkway behind the sidewalk that is also planted with a continuous row of trees. Metropolitan development V\lhole Foods Bicycle Racks The Plall.lUng 'Coffilnissioll requested clarificatioll on wheth.er a requiremen.t for bicycle racks should be incorporated into the specific plan. Staff would like to llldicate that bicycle racks are standard requirements for developments per the City's Parking Regulations (Chapter 19.100 of the Zoning Ordinance). Developments within the Heart of the City Specific Plan still need to COIn ply with the Parking Ordinance; therefore, staff believes it is I10t necessary to incorporate an additional reference requiring bicycle racks. Prescriptive Side Yard Setback Requirements The Commission also commented OIl the elimination of prescriptive side yard setback' requiremeIlts ill the updated specific plan and' 110w this could create confusion for applicalltS. As llldicated III the previous report, staff eliInlllated SUCll requirements and proposed new language in the updated specific plan to allow for developments that empIlasize relatioll.sll.ips to adjacent buildings and lot vvidtl1S to create a more cOilllected, pedestriaIl-orien.ted streetscape tha11 developlnellts '\/VitIl rigid setback standards regardless of their surrounding building and site relationships. This will also aid lll. the de"velopmellt of Ilarrow alld odd-shaped lots Withirl tIle Heart of tIle City. Finished Design Format As a result of the June 10, 2008 Planni11g COImnission meeting, the la)Tout of the updated Heart of the City Specific Plan has been arranged lllto its finished d'esigrl format (See Exhi~it A).

The purpose of the specific plan is to guide the future development and redevelopment of the approximately 250 acre Stevens Creek Boulevard Corridor in a manner that creates a greater sense of place and comnmnity identity in Cupertino. The overall goal is to develop a Heart of the City, a pe- destrian-inclusive gathering place that will create a positive and memorable image of Cupertino To achieve this goal, the Specific Plan intends to guide future investment and development in the area by: 1) Providing a clearly defined plan for the inten- sification of certain subareas and the arrange- ment of land uses to concentrate activity; 2) Developing detailed development standards and architectural guidelines to inform build- ers and the public about the community's ex- pectations for quality development; and 3) Committing public investment and estab- lishing additional financing to fund public improvements that will enhance community identity and unity along Stevens Creek Bou- levard. The Plan does not force the relocation of busi- nesses; such decisions are determined by market conditions, rather, the land use regulations and de- sign guidelines are in place to guide f~ture devel- opment and renovation of existing businesses. As such private development will probably occur in- crementally, but directed toward a common vision. Specific Plan Area Description The Heart of the City specific planning area encompasses the properties fronting on or near the Stevens Creek Boulevard Corridor, an east/west transportation spine that is bounded by the eastern City limits near Lawrence Expressway and High- way 85 to the west. Authority for the Plan Section 65450 of the California Government Code provides for local governments to prepare specific plans for the systematic implementation of the General Plan. The Specific Plan is a planning tool that can be used to carry out the goals and poli- cies of the General Plan. State law establishes cer- tain minimum requirements that must be adhered to in a specific plan. These requirements include text and diagrams that specify all of the following in detail: 1. The distribution, location and extent of the uses of land, including open space, within the area covered by the plan. 2. Standards and criteria by which development will proceed and standards for the conservation, development, and utilization of natural resourc- es where appropriate. 3. The proposed distribution, location and intensity of major components of the public and private transportation, sanitary sewerage, water, storm- water drainage, solid waste disposal, energy and other essential facilities proposed to be located within the area covered by the plan and needed to support the land uses described in the plan. 4. A program of implementation measures includ- ing regulations, programs and public works proj- ects and financing measures needed to carry out the provisions of the plan.

CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PL-\.N 1-16 8 POLlCY FRAMEWORK tions that assure compatibility, while em- ploying specific, well-designed buffers for adjacent residences. 10. Generally, the expenditure of public funds to ac- quire and develop typical neighborhood parks is not endorsed; however, passive rest areas should be incorporated in new development to the ex- tent feasible and in furtherance of Heart of the City Specific Plan policies. Circulation/Parking Goal Facilitate efficient and safe movement of peo- ple and vehicles within the specific planning area. Maintain or improve transportation level of service (LOS) "D" except at the intersection of Stevens Creek Boulevard and De Anza Boulevard and at the intersection of Stevens Creek Boulevard and Stelling Road, where LOS E + is allowable to fur- ther a unique community gathering place. Policies: 1. Promote bicycle and pedestrian access along Stevens Creek Boulevard by creating a network of attractive formal and informal pedestrian pathways that link together the Boulevard and adjacent properties. Strategies: · Evaluate options on Stevens Creek Boule- vard to improve the pedestrian environment by proactively managing speed limits, their manual and automated enforcement and traffic signal synchrony. · Require pedestrian planning for new devel- opment that includes pedestrian linkages between properties and pedestrian-oriented amenities. · Barriers to pedestrian access should not be created between adjoining retail commercial properties. · Encourage active, outdoor-oriented commer- cial uses. · Develop design guidelines and incentives for pedestrian plazas, courtyards and passive rest areas. · Complete implementation of the bicycle plan for Stevens Creek Boulevard and pro- vide bicycle racks as needed. · Investigate the possibility of creating greater pedestrian access between the residential neighborhoods and retail centers. · Investigate potential open space linkage from Creekside Park to Stevens Creek Bou- levard and into ValIeo Industrial Park using the Calabazas Creek Corridor. 2. Improve traffic flow and visual continuity along the Boulevard. Strategy: Reduce the number of curb cuts by requiring shared driveways and interconnected roads along the Boulevard where feasible through private development improvements. 3. Adjust parking standards in accordance with ac- tualland use demand. Strategy: · Establish revised parking standards for mixed used developments that include residential uses. · Require shared parking agreements in the Crossroads area, with overall parking stan- dards reduced to reflect shared parking ar- rarlgements. Urban Design/Streetscape Goal To create a high quality and distinct community image and a functional and vibrant heart for Cu- pertino. Policies: 1.

Strategies: . Implement a streetscape program that will create a distinct, but cohesive, high quality image for Stevens Creek Boulevard. . Require compliance with the Heart of the City design guidelines for new development or redevelopment of existing buildings. Em- phasize urban design as a major consideration of the design review and approval process. . Promote Boulevard landscaping that comple- ments the planned land uses and activities along the Boulevard. . Enhance and promote the creation of pub- lic space throughout the Heart of the City through the use of building siting and design, public art, landscaping and street furniture. . Design entry points and landmarks that pro- vide a sense of arrival to the Heart of the City, initiate the streetscape theme and pro- vide signage to important destinations. . Develop entrance concepts, which may in- clude structures and/or landscaping for major projects to be implemented by private prop- erty owners. . Consider the visual and functional access of significant public facilities in developing building designs for the Heart of the City. . Emphasize private property landscape mate- rials that complement the streetscape land- scape plan. . Implement a plan to have a professional ar- chitectural advisor to assist the City in the design review process. 2. Soften and define the hardscape of parking areas, pedestrian spaces and pathways by using land- scapmg. Strategy: Develop design guidelines for the use of land- scaping and furnirure in the hardscape areas in order to define and separate use areas as well as create more attractive environments. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLAN 1-19 12 STREETSCAPE DESIGN STREETSCAPE DESIGN Background and Purpose The Streetscape Element of the Specific Plan implements community design goals contained in the 1993 General Plan, design concepts subse... quently developed and revised in the 1993 "Heart of the City" Design Charette, and any new poli... , cies and concepts identified in the 2005 General Plan. The general streetscape concept endorsed at the Charette 'Na~ named "Parkurbia." It promotes a "green" city, acknovvledges Cupertino's agricultural past, and 'links the street's major activity centers 'with a continuous landscaped parkvvay as a princi... pal objective. The Streetscape Element cOITlplements the Spe.... cific Plan's Land Use Element by reflecting the cor.... ridor's different land use concentrations and desig... nations. Design approaches vary to accomlTlodate land uses. Options for implenl.entation depend to a significant extent on the type of, existing devel... opment immediately adjacent to the'street right.... of....\vay. Streetscape policies also reflect the setback, frontage inl.proven1ents, and landscape and signage requirernents established in the Plan's Develop.... ment Standards and Design Guidelines. Together, these three Plan Elen1ents combine to pr01TIote an attractive, n1i.xed...use boulevard, consistent \vith the goals of the General Plan. Streets cape improvement policies apply to both public and private sector actions in the Specific Plan Area. For exaluple, large...scale improvements within the existing, right-of....V\7ay, such as street trees and street lighting, may be best implemented by the City \\7ith future reimbursement by private property O\\7ners when redevelopment occurs; construction can be more efficient and the appearance of the . improvements more consistent. Improvements to private property adjacent to the right...of...V\7ay would need to be coordinated with the City, but could be implemented as part of privately...financed site ren.... ovation or redevelop111ent. HO"VI7ever, the primary purpose of the Streetscape Element is to define the in1provements needed to fulfill the City's vision for the Stevens Creek Boulevard corridor. It allO"ws for flexibility in terms of phasing, financing, and design modifications in order to address the needs of the City and Specific Plan Area property o\vners and businesses. Streetscape Design' Principles The Streetscape Element has five underlying principles: 1) Unify the Visual Appearance of the Street with Orchard/Grove Street Trees Plantings, a Consistent Palette of Furnishings, and Civ.... ic Landmarks. 2) Improve the Pedestrian Environment Along the Street Frontage \\7ith Passive Rest Ar.... eas, Planting Strips and Buffering Trees and Shrubs. J) Allow for Flexibility in the Design of Streetscape lmproveluents to Address Ac.... cess and Visibility Needs of Adjacent Conl..... mercial Development. 4) Acco111n10date Options for In1plenl.enting Streetscape Improvements: e.g., City Con.... structioil, Renovations of Existing Develop.... ment, Standards for Ne\\7 Development. 5) Create a unique pedestrian oriented activity center at the Crossroads.

CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC FLAN 1-21 14 STREETSC..6,.PE DESIGN Design Concept Four streetscape subareas are defined for the corridor: West Stevens Creek Boulevard, Crossroads, Central Stevens Creek Boulevard, and East Stevens Creek Bo~levard. See the Concept Plan on the fol.. lO\\Ting page. A continuous curbside planting strip and a con.. tinuous rovv of street trees \\Tould extend along the en~ire corridor. HOV>,Tever, each subarea \\Tould fea.. ture a different tree species. Tree species are select.. ed to reflect differences in the character of develop.. n1ent.in the subareas and/or the predominant types of existing trees and frontage conditions. Streetscape Design policies for each of the sub.. areas are described below': West StelLJens Creek Boulevard.. The West Ste.. vens Creek Boulevard subarea extends fro1TI Route 85 to Stelling Road. The planting theme is an "Oak Grove." It features an inforn1al pianting of Live Oaks (Quercus agrifolia) and native \\Tild flo\\Ters in. curbside planting strips and the center 1uedian. It is anticipated that these oaks could be planted among the existing Deodar cedars at De Anza Col... lege \vithout needing to ren10ve the existing trees. This approach is intended to bring the landscape of the adjacent foothills into the City, as \\Tell as tie together the existing character of De Anza College, Memorial Park, and The Oaks 'shopping center. Trees s~ould be planted at approximately 40 feet on center. Decomposed granite should be used as the surface material where appropriate. Crossroads.. Refer to the Crossroads Streetscape Pla~1 for details. This subarea extends from Stelling Road to De Anza Boulevard. Central Stevens Creek Boulevard.. The Central Stevens Creek Boulevard subarea extends fron1. De Anza Boulevard East to Peri1ueter Road. The plant.. ing theme is a "Flowering Orchard." It features a formal planting of Flo\vering Pear (Pyrus calleriana "Chanticleer") and grass in curbside planting strips. FlO\\Tering shrubs .could be planted in the center median V>,7here appropriate. This approach fills in and 'extends' the tree plantings that presently ex.. . ist along the street, and the formal tree placement . expresses the importance of the Central Stevens Creek Boulevard as the civic and cultural heart of the City. Trees should be planted in rO\\TS on both sides of the side\valk at approximately 25 feet on center. For retail properties \vith narrow drive\\Tays, the second rO\\7 tree on each side of the drivev\7ay need not be planted if it obscures retail visibility. East Stevens Creek Bouleo..lard .. The East Stevens Creek Boulevard subarea extends from Perimeter Road to the, City boundary adjacent to Tantau Ave.. , nue. The planting theme, is an "Ash Grove." It fea.. tures a relatively formal planting of Ash (Fr.axinus species) in curbside plantll1.g strips and the center median. Similar to the Central Stevens Creek Bou... levard subarea, this approach fills in and extends the tree plantings that presently exist along the street. It also combines vlith the "Oak Grove" in the West Stevens Creek Boulevard subarea to fra1ne the Central Stevens Creek Boulevard subarea. Both vvill have a shady, some\vhat rural visual character. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PL-<\N 1-22 STREETSCAPE DESIGN 15 Trees should be planted in rows on both sides of the sidewalk at approximately 35 feet on center. Grass or low-growing groundcover may be used as the surface material. For retail properties with nar- row driveways, the second row tree on each side of the driveway need not be planted if it obscures retail visibility. If a double row of mature ashes is already established along a commercial retail front- age, neither row of trees should be removed. Frontage Renovation Conditions A curbside planting strip 10 feet in width and a sidewalk a minimum of 6 feet in width should be established along the entire frontage of the street. In the Central Stevens Creek Boulevard and East Stevens Creek Boulevard subareas, a planting area 10 feet in width should also be established behind the walk to accommodate a second row of trees. Conditions along the street vary, however, and implementing the Design Concept in a uniform way will be difficult, at least for the near term. The Frontage Renovation Conditions plans on the following page illustrate typical existing frontage conditions and recommendations for responding to them to implement the Design Concept. Con- ditions are described below, from least to most con- strained. 1) Wide Landscape Easement with Planting Strip - This condition is the model for the rest of the street. It contains a 10 feet planting strip and a 10 foot landscape easement adjacent to the sidewalk. It reflects City requirements for front- age landscaping that have been in place for the past twelve years and as such characterizes most of the new development along the street. Exist- ing trees in these areas, however, rarely form consistent rows along the street. Additional trees should be added to create a double row of trees at a spacing consistent with the streetscape design. Existing trees of the recommended tree species should not be removed if spaced closer than the streetscape design. Over the long term when redevelopment of properties occurs, the wide landscape easement with planting strip will be implemented on all Town Center and East Gateway frontage properties. 2) Curbside Walk with Landscape Easement - A curb- side planting strip up to 10 feet in width and a double row of trees can be established under this condition. However, because the width of the easement area varies, the second row of trees may need to be offset from the first row. 3) Wide Curbside Walk witlwut Landscape Easement - In this condition the entire curbside right-of- way is paved as a sidewalk. Levels of pedestrian activity along the street generally don't demand a walk this wide, and a curbside planting strip approximately 6 feet wide should be established by removing the curbside portion of the walk. 4) Curbside Walk without Landscape Easement - As illustrated, a monolithic curb, gutter and side- walk exists with a relatively narrow planting area between the sidewalk and adjacent build- ings and/or parking areas. There is no landscape easement adjacent to the right-of-way, and there is only 10 feet within the right-of-way. To implement the Streetscape Concept under these conditions the location of the walk and planting area needs to be reversed. A 5 feet curbside planting strip and a 5 feet sidewalk should be established within the right-of-way. Trees should be located in adjacent parking lots as feasible to establish a double row. The frontage improvements recommended should be improved as part of renovations to exist- ing developments and properties, and/or required along with a wider landscape easement if redevel- opment of a property occurs. 'CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLAN 1-23 16 DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS AND DESIGN GUIDELINES DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS AND DESIGN GUIDELINES Background The Development Standards and Design Guide~ lines contained in this Elerp.en t provide regulatory support for the Specifi~ Plan's land use policies. They are intended to promote high-quality private~ sector development, enhance property values, and ensure that both private investnlent and public activity ,continues to be attracted to the Stevens . Creek Boulevard corridor. The Standards and Guidelines reflect the Com~ Iuunity Design Goals of the 1993 General Plan, the "Parkurbia" streetscape concept that emerged froln the 1993 "Heart of the City" design charette, the implementing streetscape improvenlent policies contained in the Specific Plan's Streetscape Ele~ ment, and any new policies and concepts identified in the 2005 General Plan. As noted throughout the Specific Plan, the "Parkurbia" concept promotes a "green" city, ac~ kno\\7ledges Cupertino~s agricultural past, and en~ visions Stevens Creek Boulevard as a landscaped park\\7ay linking major centers of cultural, office, and retail use. Ho-wever, Stevens Creek Boulevard lllUSt also acconlmodate a variety of develoPluent types outside of the 'activity nodes around intersec~ tions, and a central objective of the Standards and Guidelines is to accommodate this variety 'Nithin the overall parameters of the "Parkurbia" concept. The Mixed-Use Parkway The image of Cupertino is 1l10st on display along Stevens Creek Boulevard. The corridor is the cen~ tral elenlent of Cupertino's "public reahu," \vhere much of its public life occurs. Yet the corridor's hodge~podge appearance conq.-ibutes little to the overall character of the comrnunity and is at odds with the orderly sub~urban character of its neigh~ borhoods and business parks. Land uses, building forms, and landscapin.g vary fronl one property to the next. "Building as a sign" commercial build~ ings, sleek offices, old and ne\\' shoppmg centers, parks, parking lots, gas stations, condominiums and apartments all "do their oV\~n thing," independent of one another. While progress has been made durjng the life' of the Heart of the City, several properties along the corridor still have development potential and th~refore, a consistent set ~:l standards and guide~ lines is necessary. Some examples of projects where the Heart of the City standards have been suc~ cessfully applied are: Adobe Terrace, Marketplace Shopping Center and the Travigne development at the north east comer of Blaney Avenue and Ste- vens Creek Boulevard. ~~.,.~" .- b~.it~ .~. _.~'-' ," .!._ -, , Y'. ~.::~:;:;- ~ ::.., ~",~ ~:"~~~itA~~~'!~~~'.' . ~-:-'::;:-:-.::a " . r .I'U;"'.~ ~~~'.,~."',:-.i~~~_"'1!~.". "~~ =...; CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLAN 1-24 DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS AND DESIGN GUIDELINES 17 Participants in the General Plan process and the Heart of the City Design Charette in 1993 identi- fied this lack of coherence as particularly undesir- able, and identified a "parkway" design approach as a means of both bringing visual order to the street and reflecting the physical characteristics of the rest of the community. The goals of the Standards and Guidelines are therefore: 1) Accommodate a continuous parkway /street- tree planting scheme that facilitates pedes- trian activity, yet maintain the visibility and access needed for successful commercial retail businesses. 2) Promote visual compatibility between com- mercial, office, and residential development. 3) Allow commercial, office and residential de- velopment flexibility to meet different needs in terms of building form and site and front- age orientation. The manner in which the Standards and Guide- lines address these goals is summarized below: VisibiLity: The Standards and Guidelines imple- ment the parkway frontage concept established in the Streetscape Element of the Specific Plan. They require that all new development provide a front- age landscape easement that extends twenty six feet back from the curb. The easement will accommo- date a curbside planting strip, sidewalk, and either a single row or double row of street trees. However, visibility of development from the roadway is important for most types of develop- ment. Because businesses market goods and services directly to motorists, it is essential for commercial retail development. The Standards and Guidelines therefore contain the following provisions to main- tain visibility: 1. Building-from-curb setbacks are reduced to 35'; 2. Total area permitted for commercial wall signs is increased from 1 square foot per linear foot of store frontage to 1.5 square feet. In addition the Streets cape Element contains policies for installing trees with canopies high enough to allow visibility of adjacent properties. Compatibility: The Standards and guidelines do not require a particular architectural style or styles. However they do encourage a common approach in terms of architectural features. For example, all buildings are required to have a main building entrance visible from the street frontage, and all buildings are encouraged to have an architectural base, a consistent arrangement of building masses, and an attractive roof or roofline. In addition to the consistent parkway frontage, elements of agricultural landscaping and pedestrian scale character - "orchard" tree plantings, trellises and arbors, and pedestrian-height light fixtures-are emphasized. Clearly-defined walking paths connect- ing public sidewalks, prominent building entries, courtyards, and parking areas are required. Proper- ties are buffered along rear lot lines by fences and/or walls and evenly-spaced "wind row" tree plantings. FleAibility: Different forms of development typi- cally exhibit different on-site relationships between buildings, parking, street frontages, and landscaped areas: Maximum visibility, minimal landscaping, and a frontal relationship of buildings to the street front- age is typically preferred for commercial development. Some amount of visibility combined with attractive landscaping is preferred for office buildings, with the relationship of buildings to street frontages varyuig from site to site. Dense screening and landscaping is preferred for residential development, with buildings often oriented away from street frontages. The Standards and Guidelines encourage build- ings to be located in relatively close proximity to the frontage to increase visibility, and architectural and site improvement provisions encourage compatibility Ui terms of the general appearance of development, as noted above. However, on-site relationships may vary from development type to development type. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLAN 1-25 18 DEVEWPMENT STANDARDS AND DESIGN GUIDEUNES Using the Standards and Guidelines Development Standards address those aspects of development that are essential to achieve the goals of the Specific Plan. They are specifications for site development and building design, such as permitted land uses, building height, and setbacks. Standards must be adhered to and typically employ the word "shal1." Design Guidelines, on the other hand, provide guidance for new development in terms of more subjective considerations, such as district char- acter or design details. They also serve as criteria for design review by City staff and the Planning Commission. Guidelines typically employ the word "should." Variations are permitted if they will sub- stantially aid in meeting the overall principles and objectives of the Specific Plan. Illustrative Building Prototypes illustrate ap- plication of the Standard and Guidelines and the forms of development desired by the City. Standard and Guidelines begin on the following pages: Development Standards - Page 17 Design Guidelines - Page 24 CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLAN 1-26 DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS 19 DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS 1.01.010 Description Standards and guidelill.es promote development that is compa..tible both with nearby neigh- borhoods and with existing and planned development along Stevens Creek Boulevard. A va- riety of different types of commercial development, from stand-alone single-tenant buildings to small convenience centers, office buildings and large shopping centers may be proposed. Buildings are encouraged to be located closer to the street frontage for visibility. The devel- opment standards generally require that surface parking areas shall be located to the side or rear of buildings, with shade trees in an "orchard" planting arrangement. Amenities, such as benches, pedestrian-scale lighting, and planters are encouraged along building frontages, where they will be visible from Stevens Creek Boulevard. 1.01.020 land Use A. Permitted Uses 1. Commercial - As specified in the City's General Commercial (CG) Zoning district with the following locational restrictions: a. Uses such as professional, general, administrative, business offices, business services, such as advertising bureaus, credit reporting, accounting and similar consulting agencies, stenographic services, and communication equipment buildings, vocational and specialized schools, dance and music studios, gymnasiums and health clubs and child care centers and other uses that do not involve the direct retailing of goods 01' services to the general public shall not be allowed on the Stevens Creek Boulevard street frontage of buildings. b. These uses may be located at the rear of buildings provided there is a viable storefront space along the Steven Creek Boulevard street frontage for other rental purposes. This space shall also have adequate depth to accommodate tenants. 2. Residential- at a maximum density of twenty five (25) units peracre. For mixed residential and commercial developments this shall be net density, excluding parking and/or land areas devoted to the commercial portion of the development. The following is an illustration of how net density is calculated: Gross lot = 1 acre (43,560 sq. ft) Commercial building area = 8,000 sq. ft. Surface parking area for commercial area = 6,120 sq. ft. (40 uni-size spaces @ 1/250 sq. ft.) Allowance for outdoor open/landscaping area (10% of commercial building and parking area) = 1,412 sq. ft. Total area for commercial portion of development = 15,532 sq. ft. Remainder area = 28,028 sq. ft. = 0.643 acres CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLA.N 1-27 20 DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS Units allowable on remainder area = 0.643 * 25 = 16 units 3.

CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLA.N 1-32 EXCEPTION PROCESS FOR DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS 25 EXCEPTION PROCESS FOR DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS In order to provide design flexibility in situations when small lot size, unusually shaped par- cels, or unique surrounding land uses make it difficult to adhere to the development standards and where all efforts to meet the standards have been exhausted, an applicant for devel- opment may file an exception request to seek approval to deviate from the standards. The possibility of lot consolidation, if an exception is needed for a substandard parcel, shall be evaluated. The exception process shall not be used to increase land use intensity or change permitted land uses. A. An exception for development standards can be approved if the final approval authority for a project makes all of the following findings: 1. The proposed development is otherwise consistent with the City's General Plan and with the goals of this specific plan and meets one or more of the criteria described above. 2. The proposed development will not be injurious to property or improvements in the area nor be detrimental to the public health and safety. 3. The proposed development will not create a hazardous condition for pedestrian or vehicular tramc. 4. The proposed development has legal access to public streets and public services are available to serve the development. S. The proposed development requires an exception which involves the least modification of, or deviation from, the development regulations prescribed in this chapter necessary to accomplish a reasonable use of the parcel. B. An application for exception must be submitted on a form as prescribed by the Director of Community Development. The application shall be accompanied by a fee prescribed by City Council resolution, no part of which shall be refundable, to the applicant. Upon receipt of an application for an exception, the Director shall issue a Notice of Public Hearing before the Planning Commission for an exception under this chapter in the same manner as provided in section 19.120.060 (relating to zoning changes). After a public hearing, and consideration of the application in conjunction with the mandatory findings contained in subsection A above, the Planning Commission shall approve, conditionally approve or deny the application for an exception. The decision of the Planning Commission may be appealed to the City Council as provided in Section 19.136.060. C. An exception which has not been used within two years following the effective date thereof, shall become null and void and of no effect unless a shorter time period shall specifically be prescribed by the conditions of such permit or variance. An exception permit shall be deemed to have been used in the event of the erection of a structure or structures when sufficient building activity has occurred and continues to occur in a diligent manner. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLAN 1-33 26 DESIGN GUIDELINES DESIGN GUIDELINES 2.01.010 Description The Design Guidelines promote buildings that assume some of the communication functions of signs. Through their overall form and appearance buildings should communicate more than just a business name to a motorist who is shopping by car - how many businesses are there? where to park? where to enter the building? A "building as sign" is taller than a typical one-story building, with a distinctive silhouette. It is located in close proximity to the street frontage. The driveway and main building entrance is identified by a taller architectural form, which is an excellent location for mounting a sign visible from a car. A. Building Increment - Long facades should be divided into shorter segments or modules. Modules along the Stevens Creek Boulevard frontage are recommended to be twenty-five (25) feet long and a maximum of fifty (50) feet long, and should be separated by major changes in the building mass or facade treatment, such as a projected entrance or window volume(s), notch, roof form, or other architectural feature. In some cases, these modules may be separated by varying the col.or of individual modules within a harmonious palette of colors. B. Special Architectural Features - should accent buildings at the main building entrance, adjacent to entrance drives, and/or at building comers. A diagonal "cut" at a comer, or a notch for a grand building entry, can also be effective. Features that relieve flatness of facades, such as recessed windows, architectural trim with substantial depth and detail, bay windows, window boxes, dormers, entry porches, etc., are recommended. Balconies, trellises and porches are also recommended to add human scale elements to projects. C. Massing - the overall form of a quality building is created by its three-dimensional characteristics, or massing. Different combinations of building mass should be used to compose a building. Building masses may be singular, like a tall or projecting mass located in the center to mark a main entrance. They may be symmetrical, for example towers placed on either side of the main entry; or they may be repeated in a slightly different way in another building location. D. Building Clusters - Buildings should relate to one another to shape open space in between, as is common on campuses. Changes in building form should be used to organize and accent space, by creating axial relationships between buildings, defining special courtyard spaces, etc. E. Facade Composition - Every building and/or individual tenant space should have a base; a clear pattern of openings and surface features; a prominent main entrance; and an attractive, visually interesting roofline. The building should convey quality materials. 1. Building Base - This may be as simple as a visual thickening of the wall where the building touches the ground, a different surface material and/or wall color, or a different CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CrTY SPECIFIC Pu.N 1-34 DESIGN GUIDELINES 27 design treatment for the ground floor in a two-story building facade. 2. Pattern of Openings and Surface Features - Windows, wall panels, pilasters, building bays, and storefronts should be based on a module derived from the building's structural bay spacing. 3. Building Entrances - should be easily identifiable and distinguishable and located on the front of the building or on a fronting, traffic-facing building comer. One or more of the following treatments should be used: a. A Taller Mass Above - such as a tower or turret, or a volume that protrudes from the rest of building surface. b. Centered in the Facade - as part of a symmetrical overall composition. c. Accented by Architectural Elements - such as columns, overhanging roofs, awnings, canopies and/or ornamental light fixtures. d. A Change in Roofline or Roof Type Above. For detached residential buildings in a development, building entrances should be part of a clear entry sequence, extending from the public sidewalk to the private front door. The following elements are recommended: e. Stoops and/or Open Porches - should be provided at regular intervals which correspond to the vertical modules of building units. The stoops shall be wide enough for people to sit on and to make entries inviting. Open porches should have attractive bulkheads or balustrade railings and a roof that complements the pitch and materials of the main roof. f. Stairs - should be boxed and framed by attractive stepped bulkheads walls or balustrade railings. Bullnose treads are recommended. Open or "floating" exterior stairs should not be used. g. Ornamental Lighting - of porches and walks to highlight entrances and add security. h. Freestanding Landscape Elements - such as trellises, arbors, and special landscape materials that add character to yard spaces and/ or accent the entry sequence. 4. Rooflines - should be simple, changing shape to reflect important building masses, tenants be- low, and/ or other important internal building functions. F. Windows - are an important element of facade composition and an indicator of over all building quality: 1. \X1indow/Wall Proportion - In general, upper stories should have a window-to-wall area proportion that is smaller than that of ground floor storefronts. 2. Window Openings - should generally be vertical or square in shape. Horizontally- oriented openings generally make buildings appear squat and massive. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLAN 1-35 28 DESIGN GUIDELINES 3. Window Inset - Glass should be inset a minimum of 3" from the window frame or from the exterior wall surface to add relief to building surfaces; this is especially important for stucco buildings. 4. Shaped Frames and Sills - should be used to enhance openings and add relief to wall surfaces. G. Wall Surfaces - If the building mass and variety of windows and doors is complex, simple wall surfaces may be preferable (e.g. stucco); if the building volume and the pattern of wall openings is simple, additional wall texture and articulation should be employed (e.g. bricks or blocks, or rusticated stucco). Pilasters, columns, cornices, and other forms of surface relief should be used to add visual interest and scale. H. Roofs - Parapets and/or shallow gable, hip, or other tVo'O-slope roofs are recommended for all buildings. 1. Roof Slopes - should be between 3: 12 and 6: 12. 2. Roof Ridges - should be aligned to be parallel and/or perpendicular to the street frontage. 3. Roof Overhangs - are strongly recommended. Overhangs should be a minimum of three (3) feet, with additional articulation in the form of support struts, gutter facia, and/or exposed beams/ rafter ends. 4. Materials - The following roofing materials are typical for the district: a. Metal seam made of aluminum, galvanized steel or other coated steel, recommended finishes are anodized, fluorocoated or painted. b. Clay, ceramic or concrete tile may also be appropriate if consistent with the desired building character. c. Tar and gravel, composition, or elastomeric roofs should be screened by roofed parapets. d. Asphalt shingle roofs are not recommended. I. Signs - Guidelines 1 through 4 below apply to building-nlOunted signs. 1. Sign Location - Signs should be mounted on parapets, towers, turrets, recessed wall areas, and/or other architectural features specifically designed for them. Flush-mounted and painted wall signs should align with major architectural elements, such as doors and windows. Ornamental elements, such as moldings, pilasters, arches, clerestory windows, roof eaves, or cornice lines should be used as a frame. 2. Awning and canopy signs - are recommended for commercial retail buildings. Awning signs should appear and function primarily as awnings, however. Awnings should reflect the building's facade module and should not extend for more than fifty (50) linear feet without a break. Signs on canopies should be integrated with the canopy fascia, or be in the form of freestanding letters mounted on top and extending above the fascia. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CIn' SPECIFIC PUcN 1-36 DESIGN GUIDEUl'.TES 29 3. Projecting Signs - are recommended if designed as architectural features or are located primarily for pedestrian visibility; minimum sidewalk clearance should be seven (7) feet. 4. Architectural Style - Sign shapes, type styles, and color combinations should complement building styles. 5. Structural supports - should be attractive. They should complement the overall design of the sign and! or building(s). Ornamental metal is strongly recommended. 6. Materials - should be attractive and long-lasting. Recommended materials are: a. Signboards - of wood or metal, with painted, engraved or routed letters, or mounted letters of wood or metal. b. Silhouette or figurative signs - three-dimensional letters, symbols, and / or ornamental figures made of wood or metal. c. Fabric awnings - such as canvas or nylon, with painted or applied lettering; plastic awnings should not be used. J. Common Open Space - Developments with a residential component should contain both landscaped/garden areas and hardscape areas that encourage social interaction. 1. Common Landscaped Space - A landscaped green and/or garden space should comprise between seventy per cent (70%) and eighty per cent (80%) of the common outdoor space. The location should be in a courtyard, side yard, rear yard, or common green for larger developments. Space should be rectilinear with no side less than fifteen (15) feet. Space should be seventy five percent (75%) enclosed by buildings, low walls, low fences, or linear landscaping (e.g., hedges or rows of trees) and not be bordered by surface parking areas on more than one side. 2. Common Hardscape Space - Between twenty per cent (20%) and thirty per cent (30%) of common outdoor space should be in the form of unit-paved or gravel areas, common roof deck space, or any combination of the two. Hardscape space shall be connected directly to the required landscaped space by stairs, walks, and/or ramps if necessary. K. Accessory Buildings 1. General - Accessory buildings of all types should have architectural treatments derived from the main building in terms of surface materials, trim, fenestration, roof materials, and color. 2. Freestanding Garages - should be unobtrusive, preferably located at the rear of properties to minimize visual impact. a. Single-car garage doors - are strongly recommended, with windows, surface panels, and other forms of architectural detailing to reduce their impact and scale. b. A maximum of five (5) garage doors - may be lined up consecutively; a space of five (5) feet shall be provided between each garage or group of doors. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PL"N 1-37 30 DESIGN GUIDELINES L. lighting - should be used to enhance signs and buildings. When possible, sign illumination should be coordinated with an overall building lighting scheme. Recommended lighting approaches are: 1. Backlit - with lighting inside and behind projecting lettering and/ or awnings. 2. Floodlit - with single or multiple spotlights, provided light sources are shielded to protect motorists, pedestrians, and adjacent properties. 3. Color and lamp type - Light sources providing the most pleasing and accurate color rendering are metal halide, incandescent, and color-corrected fluorescent. Other lamp types, such as cool white fluorescent, mercury vapor, and high and low pressure sodium may distort sign colors and should be used according to advice from a lighting professional; these lamp types are not appropriate for area lighting. 4. The light fixtures shall be oriented and designed to preclude any light and direct glare to adjacent residential properties. No direct off-site glare from a light source shall be visible above 3 feet at a public right.of-way. 5. Parking lots, sidewalks and other areas accessible to pedestrians and automobiles shall be illuminated with a uniform and adequate intensity. Typical standards to achieve uniform and adequate intensity are identified in the Cupertino Municipal Code, Chapter 19.100. 6. Lighting around automatic teller machines shall meet minimum standards required by the State Business and Professions Code.

A. Pedestrian Pathways.- Informal pedestrian pathways linking adjacent properties and buildings are recommended. These pathways are intended to form a network separate from the public right-of-way. A variety of approaches are possible and the City will review linkage opportunities and proposals on a case-by-case basis. B. Paving Materials - recommended for pedestrian surfaces are listed below. In general, a ma.ximum of two materials should be combined in a single application: 1. Stone - such as slate or granite. 2. Brick pavers. 3. Concrete unit pavers. 4. Poured-in-place concrete - with any of the following treatments: integral pigment . color; special aggregatej special scoring pattemj omamental insets, such as tilej pattem stamped. All concrete walks should be tinted to reduce glare. C. Walls, Fences, Hedges, Gateways And Piers - should be used to denne public and private boundaries and/ or spaces and screen parking areas. 1. Design - Walls, fences, gateways and piers should be designed to reflect the architectural style and materials of the principal building(s). a. A combination of thick and thin structural elements - should be used, with thicker elements for supports and/or panel divisions. Fenceposts and/or support columns may be built up with additional trim, comices, and/or moldings for this purpose. b. Walls and piers - should have a base and coping. c. Piers - A row of freestanding piers can be effective as an open screen between parking areas and streets or walks. A continuous chain or open metal fence between piers can be an attractive device for creating a stronger separation. 2. Materials - should be the same as or compatible with those of the principal building(s). Support post or pier materials may differ from fence materialsj e.g. metal fence panels combined with masonry piers. a. Fences - Recommended materials are wrought iron, cast iron, and welded steel for commercial applications. Metal fences may be mounted on a low masonry wall, and/ or spanning masonry piers. Wood fences are appropriate in residential Plan Areas only. They should be substantial in design and painted a light color. b. Walls and piers - recommended materials are precast concrete stucco-faced concrete, brick, or stone. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLAN 1-41 34 SITE IMPROVEMENTS AND LANDSCAPING GUIDELINES Co N at recommended: (i) Chain link fences. (ii) Unfinished or unsurfaced concrete block walls - are strongly discouraged. Block walls should be coated with cement stucco or similar surface. Split-face block walls may be appropriate along side or rear property lines only. (iii) Rustic wood fences D. Plant Materials And Landscape Treatments - Used on properties adjacent to the right~of-way should reflect the following guidelines: 1. Plant Materials Along Stevens Creek Boulevard - should create an attractive and harmonious character, in keeping with the orchard/grove streetscape theme. a. Trees with open branching structures - should be used. Deciduous trees are recommended. b. Planting/landscaped areas - should have a simple palette of plant species. c. Complex planting schemes - should not be used in front yard areas. 2. Plant Materials in Other Locations - should be selected and placed to reflect both ornamental and functional characteristics. a. Deciduous trees - should be the predominant large plant material used. They should be located adjacent to buildings and within parking areas to provide shade in summer and allow sun in winter. Species should be selected to provide fall color, and to minimize litter and other maintenance problems. b. Evergreen shrubs and trees - should be used as a screening device along rear property lines (not directly adjacent to residences), around mechanical appurtenances, and to obscure grillwork and fencing associated with subsurface parking garages. c. Flowering shrubs and trees - should be used where they can be most appreciated, adjacent to walks and recreational areas, or as a frame for building entrances, stairs, and walks. . 3. Fountains - are recommended in hardscape open spaces to provide cooling in hot weather. The design and materials should be related to the principal building(s) and/ or on-site furnishings. 4. Surface Parking Lots - utilize a significant amount of site area and should be designed as an integral feature of the overall site development plan. a. Space-defining elements - such as trellises, columns, walls, arbors, and hedges should be provided to enhance the appearance of lots. These elements should be consistent in design and materials with the principal building(s) and other site features. 1. Parking Lots - Planting should be consistent with the standards outlined in the parking ordinance. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PU>.N 1-42 SITE IMPROVEMENTS AND LANDSCAPING GUIDEUNES 35 c. "Orchard Parking" - should be employed in all surface lots. The "orchard" tree placement provides better shade on the passenger compartment and more even shade and vegetation "throughout the parking area. Trees shall be planted toward the rear of parking stalls to create a grid rather than rows. Such trees' shall be protected by curbing or bollards as appropriate. E. Surface Grading - should be minimized to maintain an orchard/grove character of development throughout the Stevens Creek Boulevard Specific Plan Area. The grading should be performed to satisfy the requirements of the Department of Public Works. 1. Mounding earth - to elevate buildings, or "berming" earth against the side of buildings, is not recommended. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLAN 1-43 36 INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN Background State law requires that all specific plans include text describing the distribution, location and inten- sity of major components of infrastructure needed to support the proposed land use and development in the specific planning area. The level of private and public improvement and development as con- templated in the Heart of the City Specific Plan will not warrant any major expansion of the City's infrastructure. The n;'ajor components of this spe- cific plan involve: . Streetscape improvements, primarily land- scaping, which do not require purchase of property or narrowing of existing streets. . Allocation of development potential, which was previously demonstrated in the Gen- eral Plan environmental impact report to be within the capacities of existing services and infrastructure. . Guidance of architectural design of future development which will not require expan- sion of infrastructure. Transportation The Heart of the City Specific Plan envisions a multimodal transportation corridor for Stevens Creek Boulevard. As such the plan proposes the eventual completion of all sidewalk improvements along the boulevard such that the sidewalk will be separated from the street by a buffering easement of trees and other landscaping. The amount of side- walk improvements that will need to be made are as follows: Reconstruction of monolithic sidewalk: -7,250 ft. Construction of new sidewalk: -150 ft. The majority of sidewalk impro~ements will take place incrementally as properties redevelop. The missing sections of bicycle lanes from De Anza Boulevard to Stelling Road will be completed as part of the streetscape project. Funding will be allocated through the Capital Improvements Pro- gram. The estimated cost is $5,000. The development intensification of the major areas may wan-ant additional signalization of Ste- vens Creek. Boulevard. Funding will be allocated in the 5-year Capital Improvement Program or paid for by the development community as Heart of the City development proceeds. Water, Sewer, Storm Drainage, Solid Waste Disposal Facilities and Energy Facilities. No expansion of these facilities is contemplated as a result of Heart of the City development activ- ity. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PLAN 1-44 IMPLEMENTATION 37 IMPLEMENTATION . Regulatory Framework The Heart of the City Specific Plan is both a policy and regulatory document. The goals, policies and strategies provide the rationale for the devel- opment standards and land use map. The Heart of the City Specific Plan is a regulatory document in that its land use map and development standards will be incorporated into a new planned develop- ment zoning for the property within its boundary. The Plan is also a policy document by virtue of the guidance it provides in allocating future develop- ment in the planning area and in establishing com- munity expectations of the design and quality of new development. The Heart of the City Specific Plan was pre- pared as a means to implement the City's 1993 General Plan and the 2005 General Plan. As such the specific plan executes the major general plan goal of creating a Heart of the City - a memorable, pedestrian-inclusive place for Cupertino. Once the Specific Plan is adopted, all future rezoning, tentative subdivision maps and public works projects must be consistent with the specific plan as required by state law. In the event, that any regulation, condition, program or portion of this Specific Plan is held in- valid or unconstitutional by a California or Federal court of competent jurisdiction, such portions shall be deemed separate, distinct and independent pro- visions, and the invalidity of such provisions shall not affect the validity of the remaining provision thereof. Streetscape Improvements Background Appendix A depicts the various estimated costs to install the proposed Heart of the City Streetscape improvements. The improvements will be phased over time and geography as monies become avail- able to implement the streetscape improvements in its totality. It will take a concerted public and pri- vate effort before all the streetscape improvements and its ultimate public benefit can be achieve. The proposed 5 -year capital improvement program allo- cates $1.5 million for Heart of the City streets cape improvements. Phase I: Median, Landmarks and Gateways Description of Activities: Replantin.g of median landscaping to include pears, ash and oak trees. Funding Sources: City 5-year Capital Improvement Program Phase II: Landscape Easement Installation Description of Activities: As private redevelopment occurs, the full landscape easement improvements will be installed by private . property owners. Depending on existing site condi- tions, this may include additional land, new side- walk, turf, additional trees and hedge fencing. Funding Source: Private property owners as redevelopment of properties occurs. Phase 1/1: Remainder of Improvements DescriPtion of Activities: The unfunded improvements include: pedestrian lights, benches, bus shelters and trash receptacles. The timing for these improvements is unknown. Funding Source: Public and private sources as may be identified. CITY OF CUPERTINO - HEART OF THE CITY SPECIFIC PU.N 1-45 38 APPENDIX A APPENDIX A Construction Costs Recommended materials and preliminary construction cost estimates for Stevens Creek Boulevard streets cape improvements are listed below. Quantities are approximate and are likely to vary. Improve- ments are proposed to be phased over the term of the Specific Plan, with street trees the first priority. Trees are assumed to be 24" box size. Estimated costs for single-row / double-row frontage street tree arrangements are provided; both options include matching trees in existing medians. Cost figures for 36" box size trees are not itemized but would add about an extra $200 per tree installed. Existing "cobrahead" street lights would remain; however new, pedestrian-scale street lights would be installed in between them to light sidewalk areas. - West Stevens Creek Boulevard Street Trees - Quercus agrifolia @40' a.c, 24" box: $500 delivered; $1,000 installed (inc. irrigation and demo).

Page 11 of 575: I 1-59 LAND USE MAP AND SPECIFIC AREAS 1-60 Page 12 of 5757 I Streetscape Design Background and Purpose The Streetscape Element of the Specific Plan implements commm:tity design goals /' contained in the 1993 General Pl~1 ~~-:~ design concepts subsequently developed and revised in the 1993 "Heart of the City" Design Charette,. aJ.1d. anv l1e,,\i policies and concepts identified in the 2003 General Plail.. The general streetscape concept endorsed at the Charette was named "Parkurbia." It promotes a "green'! city, acknowledges Cupertino's agricultural past, and has linking the street's major activity centers with a COlltinUOUS landscaped parkway as a principal objective. The Streetscape Element complements the Specific Plan's Land Use Element by reflecting ,the corridor's different land use concentrations and designations. Design approaches vary to accommodate land uses. Options for implementation depend to a significant extent oil. the type of existing development immediately adjacent to the street righFof-way. Streetscape policies also reflect the setback, frontage improvements, and landscape and signage requirements established ill. the Plan's Development Standards and Design Guidelines. Together, these three Plan Elements combine to promote an attractive, mixed-use boulevard, consistent with the goals of the General Plall_" Streetscape improvement policies apply to both public and private sector actions in the Specific Plan Area. For example, large-scale improvements within the existing right-of- way, such as street trees and street lighting, may be best implemented by the City with future reimbursement by private property owners \-\Then redevelopment occurs;' construction' can be more efficient a~d the appearance of the improvements more consistent. Improvements to private property adjacent to the right-of-way would need to be coordinated with the City, but.could be implemented as p.art of privately-financed sl"te reI"'"IQVatl.oI"'"I or redevelopmeI"'"It "ca..~...l_~"""",,~: 0..... c.c .._n 1"'1; C ::.1"" d ........;........ ~c ~ ~ ;.....- ,-on 1 d .

Streetscape Design Principles Tb_e Streetscape Element has fu.ttrfi,-e Ul'lderlyul.g principles: 1) Unify the Visual Appearance of the Street with Orchard/Grove Street Trees Plall.tU'lgs, a COIlsistellt Palette of Furnishings, and Civic Landmarks" 2) Improve the Pedestrian Environment Along the Street Frontage with Passive Rest Areas, Plal'lting Strip~ all.d Bufferu'lg Trees alld Shrubs. 3) Allow for Flexibility ill. the Design of Streetscape Improvements to Address Access and Yisibility Needs of Adjacel'lt COlll.mercial Development. Page 13 of 5757 1-61 4) Accommodate Options for Implementing Streetscape Improvements: e.g.~ City Construction, RenovatioI15 of Existing Development, Standards for New Development. 5) Create a UlUQUe pedestriaJ1 oriel1ted acti\iitv cel1ter at tl1e Crossroads.

Tl1e Frontage Re110.va~io11 Conditions pla11s 011 the following page illustrate typical existu1g frontage C011ditio11S arld recommendatio11s for .respoll.du1g to t11em to implement the Design Concept. Conditions are described below, rrOln least to most c01lstrau1ed. 1) Wide Landscape Easelnent Iuith Planting Strip - This c011.dition is the model for the rest of t11e street. It contains a 10 reet' pla11tu1g strip a11d a 10 root lall.dscape easeme11t adjacent to tl1.e sidew'alk. It reflects City requirements for frontage laIldscapu1g that 11ave been in place ror the p,ast twelve years and as suc11 c11aracterizes most or t11e ll.ew developme11t along tI1e street. Existing trees ill. tI1ese areas, l1.oV\Tever, rarely form consistent rows along the street. Additional trees sI10uld be added to create a double ro,,y of trees at a spacing consistent vvith the streetscap~ desigI1. Existu1g trees of tI1.e recommended tree species s110uld not be remo\Ted if spaced closer than the streetscape desigr1. Over the long term vlhe11 redevelopme11t or properties occurs, 1-6~ Page 15 of 57~ the wide landscape easement with planting strip V\Till be implemented on all TOWIl Center and East Gate\vay frontage properties. 2)' Curbside V\Talk with Landscape Easelnent - A curbside planting strip up to 10 feet ill width and a double row of trees can be established under this conditioll. However, because the width of tIle easement area varies, the second rovv of trees may need to . be offs~t from the first row; see ill::s::ratio:...... ' 3) Wide Curbside Walk without Landscape Ease7nent - In this condition the entire curbside . rigIlt-of-way is paved as a sidewalk. Levels of pedestrian activity along the street generally don't demand a walk this wide, and a curbside planting 'strip approximately 6 feet wide should be established by removing the curbside portion of the walk. - . 4) Curbside Walk without Landscape Ease7nent - As illustrated, a monolithic curb, gutter and sidewalk exists witIl a relatively narrow planting area between the sidevvalk alld adjacent buildings and/ or parkillg areas. There is no lculdscape easement adjacent to the right-of-way, and there is only 10 feet vvithin the right-of-way. To implement the Streetscape Concept Ullder these conditions tIle location. of the 'walk an.d plap.ting area needs to be reversed. A 5 feet curbside planting strip and a 5 feet sidewalk sb.ould be established within the right-of-way. Tree? sllould be located III adjacent parkulg lots as feasible to establish. a double rOV\T.

They are intended to promote higll-quality private-sector development, enhance property values, and enEur~ that both private lll.Vestment and public activity continues to be attracted to the Stevens Creek Boulevard corridor. The Stalldards and Guideline? reflect tIle Community Design Goals of tIle 1993 General Plan, the "Parkurbia" streetscape concept tIlat emerged from the 1993 "Heart of the City" design chare~te, :.:-:::: the implementing streetscape improvement policies contained in the Specific Plall.'S Streetscape Element, alld all~7 Ile,v policies and COllceots identified in tIle 2003 Gel1eral Plan. As noted throughout the Specific Plan, tIle "Parkurbia'l concept promotes a "green" city, ackr!-owledges Cupertlllo's agricultural past, and en"visions Stevens Creek Boulevard as a lalldscaped parkway IUlking major Cell.ters of cultural, office, and retail use. However, Ste"vens Creek Boulevard must also accommodate a variety of developmellt types outside of the activitv Ilodes aroU1ld illtersectiollS:;~:Cc ::-:J.ic: '::::"I:,-:~:,- cc:.....:c:s, aJ.ld a central objective of the Standards and Guidelines is to accolnffiodate this variety within th.e overall parameters of tIle llParkurbia" cOllcept. The Mixed-Use Parkway The unage of Cupertino is most on display along Stevens Creek Boulevard. The corridor is the central element of Cupertino's "public realm," vvIlere much of its public life occurs. . Yet the corridor's hodge-podge appearance contributes little to the overall character of tIle commwuty aIld is at odds with the orderly sub-urban character of its neighborll.oods and business parks. Land uses, building forms, artd landscapul.g vary from one property to the next. L.o;o li.ke /J'Buildlllg as a sign" comm.ercial buildings, sleek offices, old and new Sl10pping centers, parks, parking lots, gas stations, condominiums and apartlnents all "do tIleir OWll thing,ll indepell.dell.t of one allotller: \Vl1ile progress Ilas beell11lade dUrll1g tIle life of tIle Heart of the Ci~i, seyeral properties alOllg the corridor still Ila\-e de\-eloPl1lent Dotelltial alld t11erefore, a COllsistent set of - - staJ.ldards a11d guidelines is llecessarv.

Participants in tIle General Plan process and the Heart of the City Design" Charette III 1993 identified this lack of collerellce as particularly Ulldesirable, alld identified a "parkway" design approach asa means of both bru1ging visual order to the street and reflecti1lg the physical cllaracteristics of the rest or tIle community. The goals of the StaJ.1dards and Guidelines are therefore: Page 18 of 57Pr 1-66 1) Accom.moda~e a continuous parkway / street-tree plantin.g scheme that facilitates pedestrian activity, yet maint0-in tb.e visibility all.d access needed for successful commercial retail businesses. . 2) Promote visual compatibility betvveen commercial, office, and residential development. 3) Allo\v commercial, office and residential development flexibility to meet different needs in terms of building form and site all.d frontage orientation. The manner ill which the Standards all.d Guidelines address these goals is summarized below: Visibility: The Standards and Guidelines implement the park\vay fr,?ntage concept established in the Streetscape Element of the Specific Plan. They reqUire that all ll.eW development provide a frontage landscape easement that extends tvventy six feet back from the curb. The easement will accommodate' a curbside planting strip, sidewalk, and either a single row or double row of street trees. However, visibility of development from the roadway is important for most types of de\Telopment. Because businesses m~rket goods and services directly to motorists, it is essential for commercial retail developlnell.t. The Standards and Guidelines therefore contain the following provisions to maintain visibility: "" ~.;... ..~ 1I""'11il .L. I-oL..J....J... .J....&..

COlnpatibility: TIl.e Standards and guidelines do not require a particular arcIlitectural style or styles. However they do encourage a COlll.ffiOll. approach i1~ terms of arcIlitectural features. For example, all buildi1l.g~ are required to Il.ave a maUL building entrall.Ce visible from the street frOll.tage, and. all buildi11gs are ellcouraged to have an arch.itectural base, a consistell.t arrangemell.t of buildill.g Inasses, and an attractive roof or rooflill.e.. In addition to tll.e COll.siste11t park\vay frontage, elements of agricultural l~dscaping and pedestrian scale cll.aracter - "orchard" tree plantings, l"'.cc:oc~, trellises and arbors, a11d pedestriall-11eight light fixtures - are emphasized. Clearly-defined walking paths cOlul.ecting public sidewalks, prominell.t buildul.g entries, courtyards, and parking areas are required. Properties are buffered along ::;:dc .:::~d rear lot lines by fences all.d/ or \valls and evenly-spaced "Will.d ro\v" tree plantill.gs. Page 19 of 5757 1-67 Flexibility: Different forms of development typically exhibit different on-site relationships between buildings, parking, street frontages, and landscaped areas: Maximum visibility, minimallandscapulg, and a frolltal relationship of buildings to the street frontage is typically preferred f9r commercial development. Some amoUnt of visibility comb'ined ,,\lith attrac~ive landscapulg is preferred for office buildings, \vith tIle relationship of buildulgs to street frontages \Taryulg from site to site. Dense screening and landscapin.g is preferred for residential q.evelopment, with buildings often oriented away fro~ street frontages. The Starldards and Guidelines encourage buildings to be located .in relatively close proximity to the f~ontage to increase visibility, and architectural and site imp~ovemellt provisioIlS ellcourage compatibility III terms of the general appeararlce oJ development, as noted. above.

Standards apply to existing lots 10,000 square feet or lesE? in area an.d 225 feet or more in distance from Stevens Creek Boulevard. . 1.G;02.20 Land Use A. Permitted Uses 1. Sillgle-Family Residelltial- at a density range of 1-5 Ullits per acre. 2. Oth~r permitted uses ill. the R-1 slllgle-fp.mily residential zoning district. B. Accessory Uses 1. Customary Home Occupations - subject to City review. 2. Accessory Uses and Buildings - customarily appurtencult to a permitted use. c. Conditional Uses 1. Conditional uses as allowed ill the R-1 sillgle-family residelltial zoning district. 1.0302.30 Building Height and Setbacks 1. Buildul.g heights and setbacks are as allowed' ill the R-1 sUlgle-family residential ZOlling district. 1.0302.40 Other Site Development Regulations 1. Gtller site de\Telopment regulatiolls applicable in the R-1 single-family residelltial zoning, district shall apply to lots affected by' these single-family residential development standards as ShO\Vll. in the figure. Page 34 of 57g I 1-82 Exception Process for Development Standards In order to provide design flexibility in situations when small lot size, unusually shaped parcels, or unique surrounding laI}d uses make it difficult to adhere to the development standards and where all efforts to meet the standards have been exhausted, an applicant for development may file an exception request to seek approval to deviate from the standards. The possibility of lot consolidation, if an exception is needed for a substandard parcel, shall be evaluated. The exception process shall not be used to increase land use intensity or change permitted land uses. A. An exception for development standards can be approved if the final approval authority for a project makes all of the following findings: 1. The proposed development is otherwise consistent with the City's General Plan and with the goals of this specific plan and meets one or more of the criteria described above. 2. The proposed development will not be injurious to property or improvements in the area nor be detrimental to the public health and safety. 3. The proposed development will not create a hazardous condition for pedestrian or vehicular traffic. 4. The proposed development has legal access to public streets and public services are available to serve the development. 5. The proposed development requires an exception which involves the least modification of, or deviation from, the development regulations prescribed in this chapter necessary to accomplish a reasonable use of the parcel. B. An application for exception must be submitted on a form as prescribed by the Director of Community Development. The application shall be accompanied by a fee prescribed by City COUl1cil resolution, no part of which shall be reM1dable, to the applicant. Upon receipt of an application for an exception, the Director shall issue a Notice of Public Hearing before the Planning Commission for an exception under this chapter in the same manner as provided in section 19.120.060 (relating to zoning changes). After a public hearing, and consideration of the application in conjunction with the mandatory findings contained in subsection A above, the Plamling Commission shall approve, conditionally approve or deny the application for an exception. The decision of the Planning Commission may be appealed to the City Council as provided in Section 19.136.060. ' C. Al1 exception which has not been used within two years following the effective date thereof, shall become null and void and of no effect unless a shorter time period shall speCifically be prescribed by the conditions of such permit or variance. i\n exception permit shall be deemed to have been used in the event of the erection of a structure or structures when sufficient building activity has occurred and continues to occur in a diligent manner. 1-83 Page 35 of 57~ I Design Guidelines Com.n-:crci~l RctJ.il Dc\~clopill.cn t CuidclhLcs 2.01.010 Descriptio.n The Design Guidelu1es promote buildings that assume some of t11e communication fw1ctions of signs. Through tb.eir overall forn1 a11d app~arance b"uildings should communicate mor~ than just a business name to a motorist who is shopping by car - how many businesses are there? where to park? where to enter the b.uildu1g? A llbuildu1g as sign" is taller than a typical one-story buil9.ing, with a distinctive silhouette. It is located in close proximity to the street frontage. The driveway and main building entrarlce is identified by a taller architectural form, "\vhich is an excellent location for mounting a SigI1 visible from a car. A. Building Increment - Long facades should be divideq into sl10rter segments or modules. Modules along the Stevens Creek Boulevard frontage are recommended to be twenty-five (25) feet long a11d a maximum of fifty (50) feet long, and should be separated by lnajor changes in the building mass or facade treatment, such as a projected entrance or ,vindow volume(s), 11otch, roof form, or other architectural feature. III SOllle cases, tllese 1110dules l11av be separated bv \TarVlllg tile color of llldividual TIlodules \vithin a 11ar11lonious palette of colors. B.D Special Architectural Features - s110uld accent buildings at the main buildu1g entrance, adjacent to entrance drives, and/ or at building comers. .L-\. diagol1al "cut" at a COIner, or a llotcll for a gralld buildlllg elltr\T. call also be effectiy'e. Features tllat relie\;-e tlabless of facades, such as recessed \vuldo\,;"s, arch.itectural trml \vith substaIltial deptI1 alld detaiL bav \\illldo\,\7s, \,\illldo\v boxes, dorl11ers, ellmT Dorcl1es. etc., are recollllnellded. Balcolues, trellises aIld porches are also recolllinellded to add 11Ull1all scale elel11el1ts to projects. c. Massing - the overall form of a quality buildlllg is created bv its three- dimertsional ~haracteristics, or lllaSSll1,g. Differellt combulations of buildll1g l11ass sllould 'be used to compose a buildulg-. Buildulg TIlaSSeS 111av be slllguJar, like a taIlor projectlllg mass'located Ul the cellter to 11lark a ,111alll elltrarlce.

Facade Composition - Every building and/ or individual tenant space . should have a base; a clear pattern of ope11ings and surface features; a prominent main entrance; and an attractive, visually interesting roofline. The building should convey quality materials. 1. Building Base - This may be as simple as a visual thickening of the wall where the buildu1g touches the groill1d, a different surface material and/ or wall color, or a different design treatment for the ground floor in a two-story building facade. 2. Patter11 of Openings and Surface Features - Windovvs, wall pa11els, pilasters, building bays, and storefronts should be based on a module derived from tb.e building's structural bay spacll1g.

Rooflines - should be simple, changing shape to reflect important building masses, t~nants be- lovv, and/ or other important internal building functions. I}.F. Windows '- are an important element of facade composi'tion an.d. an I iridicator of over all building quality: 1. Windov\T /Wall Proportion - In general, upper stories should have a window-to-wall area proportion that is smaller than tll.at of ground floor storefronts. 2. Window Openings - should generally be vertical or square in shape. Horizontally-oriented opell.in.gs gen.erally make buildings appear squat and massive. 3. Window Inset - Glass should be inset a minimum of 3ft from the \vindow frame or from the exterior \vall surface to add relief to buildu1g surfaces; this is especially ilnportant for stucco buildin.gs. 4.

A. Pedestrian Pathways - Informal pedestrian pathways linking adjacent. properties and buildul.gs are recommended. These pathways are inte1l.ded to form a network separate from the public right-of-way. A variety of approaches are possible and the City will review linkage opportnnities and proposals 011 a case-by-case basis. 'B. Paving Materials - recommended for pedestria11 s~rfaces are listed below. In ge1l.eral, a maximum of tvvo materials should be combined in a single application: 1. Stone - such as slate or granite. 2. Brick pavers. 3. C01l.Crete Ull.it pa\Ters. 4. Poured-in-place concrete - witl1 a1l.Y of the following treatments: integral pig1ne11t color; special aggregate; special scoru1g pattern; Or11alnell.tal i11sets, SllC11 as tile; patter11 stall1ped. All COll.Crete walks should be tU1ted to reduce glare. c. Walls, Fences, Hedges, Gateways And Piers - s110uld be used to defu1e public a11d private boundaries all.d/ or space~ and screell parking areas. 1. . Desigll - \t\Talls, fences, gate'\vays and piers should be designed to reflect the arcl1itectural style and materials of the prulcipal building(s). ..... ,- ....... ........ ,..,.....,.-.~ '"', ~"A .. .L. __ ... ...

Fenceposts a!ld/ or support columns may be built up with additional trim, cornices, and/ or moldings for this purpose. e-:-b. Walls and piers - should have a base and coping. .' fr-C. Piers - A row of freestal1ding piers can be effective as an open screen. between parki11g areas and streets or walks. A continuous chau1 or open metal fence between piers can be an attractive device for creating a stronger separatiol1. C\c..""....-:.....,...... ..~o .......c-c ~l.,~..... ~".,......

Fences - RecommeI1ded materials are yvrought iron, cast iron, and welded steel for commercial applications. Metal fences may be mounted 011 a low masonry wall, and/ or spanning masonry piers. Wood fences are appropriate U1 residential Plan Areas only. They s110uld be substantial in design and pau1ted a light color. b. Walls and piers - reCOInll1ended materials are precast concrete stucco-' faced cOI1crete, brick, or stol1e. c. Not recommended: (i) Chain link fences. (ii) Unfinished or unsurfaced COI1crete block \valls - are slroI1gly discouraged. Block "\'\Talls s110uld be coated with cement stucco or similar surface. Split-face block walls 1nay be appropriate ~1011g side or rear property lU1es only. (iii) Rustic wood fences Do Plant Material~ And Landscape Treatments - Used on properties adjacent to the right-af-way should reflect the follo\ving guidelu1es: 1. Plant Materials Along Ste"verls Creek Boulevard - should_ create' an attractive and l1armonious character, in keeping with the orchard/ grove streetscape theme. Page 47 of 575: 1-95 a.

Deciduous trees - sl10uld be the predomll1ant large plant material used. They should be located adjacent to buildings and within parking areas to provide shade ill summer and allo'''T sun in winter. Species s110uld be selected to provide fall color, and to minimize litter and other maintenance problems. b. Evergreen sh.rubs and trees - should be used as a sc~eening device along rear property lines (not directly adjacent to residences), around mechanical appurtenal1ces, aJ1d to obscure grillwor:k and fencing associated vvit11 subsurface parkin.g garages. c.

Th~ level of private and public improvement and de~velopment as c011templated ill. tIl.e Heart of the City Specific Plan will not warrant any major expansiol!- of the City's infrastructure. The major. components' of this specific plan involve: . Streetscape improvements, primarily landscaping, which do not requIre. purchase of property or 11arrowing of existulg streets. . Allocation of development potential, which was previously demoll.strated in the General Plan environmelltal impact report to be within the capacities of existD:g services and infrastructure. . Guidance of architectural desigrl. of future developmellt wllich will not require expall.sion of infrastructure. Transportation The Heart of the City Specific Plan envi'sion.5 a multimodal transportatioll corridor for Stevens Creek Boulevard. As such the plan proposes the eV~lltual completion of all sidewC:llk improvements along tIle boulevard such tllat the sidevvalk will be separated from the street by a buffering easement of trees aIld other landscaping. The amount of sidewalk improvements that V\Till need to be made are as follows: Reconstructioll. of monolithic sidewalk: 11,0007,250 ft. COll.struction of ne\"T' sidewalk: -&3G-150 ft.

The applicant agreed to a five year duration for the second phase. . All Commissioners concurred with the 5 year period. Motion: Motion by Com. Brophy, second by Com. Kaneda, to recommend approval of use permit U-2007-04, architectural and site approval ASA-2007-06, EA-2007-06, EXC-2008-07, TM-2007-09, TR-2008-02 as amended tonight. (Vote: 5-0-0) The application will be forwarded to the City Council on June 17, 2008. Chair Miller declared a recess. 3. Heart of the City Specific Plan amendments to achieve conformance with the General Plan Tentative City Council date: June 17, 2008 Steve Piasecki: . Provided directions to the Planning Commission to receive the report, inform staff if the Commission agrees with the general direction they are taking so staff can go back and draft it based on the general direction. Piu Ghosh, Assistant Planner, presented the staff report: . Said that the Heart of the City Specific Plan update was approved with the 2008 City Council work program in February 2008. The updates are due to three reasons: 1) The policies of the General Plan are in direct conflict with the Specific Plan. 2) Vagueness and repetition of the same concepts making the document difficult to read. 3) Prescriptive requirements that try to fit one set of requirements for all types of parcels. . She reviewed the recommended changes in the draft Heart of the City Specific Plan as outlined in the staff report and answered Commissioner's questions about the update. . Staff is seeking Planning Commission comments to incorporate them into the final document that the Planning Commission will recommend to the City Council in July 2008. Vice Chair Giefer: . Said it would be helpful for the next meeting for staff to bring examples of what did work, and worked well, vs. what did not. The last slide you showed us of the Travina; that one has never looked consistent with what I think of the Heart of the City streetscaping, and I think it is because it doesn't have a double row planted trees and the sidewalk seems to be narrower. . I hear what you are saying with the side setbacks, I think that makes sense; but in practicality, and as we flush this out, obviously we need to think about getting onto the site and off the site, garbage pickup. We need to think about how that whole boulevard is going to work as well. Street furniture; I don't think bike racks are included in that; but 1 have seen some really nice bike racks and a lot more people are bicycling now. \Ve need to think about how to incorporate more bike and ped traffic as part of this as well. Com. Brophy: . Nothing to add. Com. Kaneda: . Said he had conversations with staff about what they are trying to accomplish, but he still did not fully understand the three different areas; what is different about what you are trying to do there; how far along you are; and how well it is working, and those types of issues. He 1-106 Cupertino Planning Corrumssion 31 June 10, 2008 reiterated that he did not have a good enough understanding of how all these pIeces fit together. Com. Rose: . Said she appreciated Com. Kaneda's comment, and felt Vice Chair Giefer brought up some good points as weU. Chair Miller: · Said his understanding was that they were focusing on inconsistencies between the General Plan and the Specific Plan, vagueness and repetition of some of the concepts, prescriptive requirements that try to generalize from one example to the many, and not really addressing conceptual issues at aU here. It is a fairly prescriptive exercise. The only comment I would add is if you take out the requirement for the side setbacks, everybody is going to ask what is the requirement for the side setbacks. Perhaps there needs to be some language with respect to side setbacks there. . There is a setback requirement and they are going to have to get an exception or variance in order to change it, but perhaps there is some language that says we are amenable to exceptions for the following reasons and elaborate so that people understand. Put it in writing and try to clarify it, rather than not have it in writing and have everyone call asking questions. Steve Piasecki: . Said it has been one of the most problematic areas and it doesn't seem to further the public objectives; there is no debate about having a front setback and no debate about how you treat the rear property lines adjoining residential. Offset buildings, set them back, screen them; but when we get into the side setback issues as staff indicated, if you get into less than 100 foot depth and you have two 20-foot setbacks, you have a 60 foot skinny building and you apply for an exception, and we have had a lot of resistance to the word "exception" let alone the concept of exception. We think that when it was put into the Plan, it was just as you suggested, that it was just a mechanism to allow you to focus on what is the right thing to do in this Plliiicular property; but it hasn't been the experience at all. My suggestion is if we put in some kind of language about setbacks, it needs to be respectful of the neighbors, it should provide for the utilitarian value of the property in terms of trash llild garbage. Otherwise you may have zero side setbacks and that may be the most appropriate location on site. . Would rather look at it on a case-by-case basis, have some language about the consistency between buildings, and then just get rid of it entirely. It does not make sense to have a prescriptive requirement of any kind. Chair Miller: o Is there cun'ently a prescriptive requirement or not? Steve Piasecki: . Yes, the people .are informed about it, and then they ask for an exception. Chair Miller: . Said that an applicant he would look at everything and try to evaluate what he could do, what it will cost, and what is the revenue stream from it. I have to know what to expect with the side setbacks or else I cannot complete my analysis. If you don't put it in the text and I cannot get an idea from the text, I am going to call you. 1-107 Cupertino Planning Commission 32 June 10,2008 Steve Piasecki: . That is what happens in other areas of town as well. North DeAnza Boulevard does not have a side setback requirement and it's a specific plan as well. I don't think that it should be; it is something you don't need to prescribe; it is something; we will sit down with the applicant and say let's analyze this in relationship to its neighbors; what makes good common sense. If you don't have it, then you are not required to do 20 feet or 10; you are going to do what is the right solution for that site. We do that in a lot of other areas; I don't see why we can't do it in this area as well. . Said he was willing to devote staff time because the end result is a better product. Com. Brophy: . I think he is saying also that he has no choice; whether you had the prescriptive setbacks or not, staff still has to do it when you have these odd shaped properties. Chair Miller: . Perhaps the task could be setbacks, talk about it just that way; setbacks are always an issue with tight lots; staff is willing to talk to you about the details about that; stating the reasons they have given flexibility to setbacks, and listing them. Steve Piasecki: . Said he had no problem with that; this isn't a single family home where things are fairly standardized. Com. Kaneda: . Is this an issue related to tight sites only, or if you have a generous site then can you get prescriptive about it. Steve Piasecki: . Yes, if you said sites greater than 200 feet have a requirement for 20 foot setbacks; we could figure it out. As an example, in theory if the Marketplace built up to the property years ago and United Furniture wanted to do the same; you might say this is the best solution we could have two side by side buildings, close together; we are not wasting space. In this case, I don't see a major public objective in prescribing side setbacks; I do in the front and I do in the rear. I am saying just take it out, let's not be prescriptive, let's have some general language about relationships and buildings and good contextual design and let's work with that. Chair Miller opened the public hearing. Jennifer Griffin, Rancho Rinconada resident: . Refened to a narrow lot near her residence that was owned by Barry Swenson, next to the Roasted Coffee Beans, Subway, Affordable Housing Units and an empty lot leased out to trucks. She said there is high density development on the left of the lot, whiCh has apartments, and the neighbors are sensitive about high density in the area. When the property is developed there will need to be adequate buffer side setbacks, back setbacks, and front setbacks. She said the consensus of the neighborhood is not to over-build on that lot. . She asked that. they make sure that the public right of way along Stevens Creek Boulevard particularly in the eastern area, between Tantau and Finch, is left in tact as a greenbelt with double rows of Ash trees. . This area has the potential to have wonderful public right of way and we want to make sure that there is little or no business encroachment into the public right of way. We had some 1-108 Cupertino Planning Comrmssion 33 June 10,2008 instances with the previous Toll Brothers plans, where they were asking to put parking with the spaces, etc. into the public right of way. · I hope that as a General Plan all the way down Stevens Creek Boulevard that we will retain the public right of way for people to have sidewalks and double rows of Ash trees at the eastern end of town. · I hope there will be every effort made to make sure that we do have our greenbelts along Stevens Creek Boulevard all the way to the eastern end. I am not a big fan of onsite parking on Stevens Creek Boulevard at the eastern end of town. Chair Miller closed the public hearing. OLD BUSINESS: None NEW BUSINESS: 4. Discuss the Planning Corrunission's summer meeting schedule. · Discussion was tabled to the next meeting. REPORT OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION: Environmental Review Corrunittee: No meeting. Housin2 Corrunission: · Steve Piasecki will look into the possibility of having a joint meeting in July to discuss the housing element. Mavor's MontWv Meetin2 With Corrunissioners: No meeting. Economic Development Corrunittee Meeting: No meeting. Report of the Director of Community Development: No additional report. Misc: · Com. Rose suggested that noticing of projects be expanded to include the entire city, so that all residents would be informed of the projects and the public hearings. Steve Piasecki explained Cupertino already notices residents/home owners outside of the mandated parameters. Suggestions for changes can be forwarded to the City Council for their consideration.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Plarming Commission: a. Review the changes to the Heart of the City Specific Plan and provide staff with direction and comments b. Conduct another hearing on the item on July 22, 2008 allowing staff to lll.corporate the comments of the Planning Commission into the final document to be forwarded to the City Council. BACKGROUND: , The City Council has requested that the Heart of the City Specific Plan be modified to reflect the changes made to the 2005 General Plan. They directed that technical revisions to the Heart of the City plan be made for the PlamLillg COffilll.ission to review and forward their recommendations to the Council. The rninutes from the meeting are attached as Exhibit A. The changes in the draft Heart of the City Specific Plan are due to the following three reasons: a. Inconsistencies between the General Plan and the Specific Plan b. Vagueness and repetitiorl of the same concepts in the document making it difficult to read c. Prescriptive requirements that h'y to fit one set of requirements for all types of parcels DISCUSSION: Inconsistencies behot\!een the General Plan and Specific Plan \1\Tith the adoption of the 2005 General Plan, policies pertaining to the Heart of the City Specific Plan ,.vithin the General Plan need to be incorporated in to the Specific Plan. The section of the General Plan related to the- Heart of the City is included as Exhibit B. There are severc~ll items that need to be changed and updated in the Specific Plan. On the following page is a list of updates that need to be made: 1-110 Heart of the City Specific Plan update Page 2 June 10,2008 Items Boundaries Develo ment Allocation Develo ment Intensi Sub-areas Design Elements Action Changed Land Use Map and Streetscape Concept Plan to reflect the new boundaries . chana-ed a-oals in Secific:Plan to refletnhe-Gefietal Plan:lanrua-e- Changed the language in the Specific Plan to reflect the General Plan Ian ae U dated the fi res for commercial and office allocation to reflect chana-es U dated the allowable densi in the S ecific Plan Area U date the sub-areas as defined in the General Plan Updated language to include the General Plan language into the Specific Plan with regard to front setbacks and to parking in the front of arcels / buildin a-s Updated the language in the Specific Plan to reflect the changes limiting the heia-ht of buildina-s to 45 feet. Goals Development Activity Heights Vagueness and repetition of the same concepts in the Specific Plan: In the frontage renovation section, there are several images that refer to interim and final conditions of the renovation. However, these illustrations are seldom used and seem to confuse users. These images have been removed from the Specific Plan. Most frontage renovations are undertaken when a property redevelops and, typically, most applicants plant a double row of trees to achieve the final frontage conditions. There is also significant repetition of the same concepts in the Specific Plan in the design standards and guidelines section of the Specific Plan. Most of the design standards are the same across the different types of development. This makes it difficult for users to read and understand the standards and guidelines. In the draft Specific plan, staff has elinlinated the duplicated language and tried to simplify the standards and guidelines in to one section for each rather than grouping the standards and guidelines by type of development. For example: front setbacks and height requirements are the same regardless of the type of development. However, they are in several places in the design standards section of the current Heart of the City Specific Plan, once for each type of development, comm.ercial and multi-unit residential. Another example of repetition is that window treatments, roof form.s and several other guidelines are repeated in three different sections of the design guidelines section, once for each type of development, commercial, office and multi-unit residential. Additionally, with development occurring along Stevens Creek Boulevard over the last decade or so, some of the references to older sites have changed. For example, the property that was previously envisioned to be the Orchard Park has been developed as the Civic Park. The concept of gateways at the eastern and western end of the Heart of the City is obsolete as is the installation or use of street furniture in the Stevens Creek Boulevard Planning Area. No private development has been required to install or provide any street furniture since the adoption of the Heart of the City Specific Plan and 1-111 Heart of the City Specific Plan Update Page 3 June 10,2008 references to these seems obsolete. Staff has drafted a model ordinance incorporating proposed amendments to address these simplifications and deleted language. The following is a table of the changes that have been recommended by staff to make the Specllic P1an an eaSIer aocument to read. Changes Staff Suggestions 1. Design Standards: Should the current design standards be Eliminate the duplicated language from each type of simplified from being grouped by type of use to development and create one set of standards for all the one combined set of design standards for all types of development. uses? 2. Design Guidelines: Should the current design guidelines be Eliminate the duplicated language. from each type of simplified from being grouped by type of use to development and create one set of guidelines for all the one combined set of design guidelines for all types of development. uses? 3. Removing obsolete language: Should the ideas in the Specific Plan that are Eliminate the language that makes reference to: obsolete be removed? a. The Civic Park as Orchard Park. b. Gateways across Stevens Creek Boulevard at Highway 85 and at the eastem city limits. c. Street furniture. Prescriptive Standards that try to fit one set of regulations for all types of parcels: The Heart of the City Specific Plan. has very rigid side setback standards that make it hard for narrower and odd shaped lots to develop or redevelop. It is very difficult for narrow lots to obtain development approval without applying for an exception for side setbacks. This discourages property owners from developing their property. Staff recommends that side setback regulations be removed from the Specific Plan document. These can setbacks can be reviewed in conjunction with the development application and the design review process. The draft Specific Plan does not include any side setbacks for properties. Staff will take Planning Commissions comments and incorporate these in the final document that the Plamling Commission can recorrunend to the City Council in July 2008.
