A Congestion Management Program (CMP) analysis was not required because the project is estimated to generate fewer than 100 peak-hour trips. This report also includes the following analyses:
Vehicle queuing analysis at high demand turn movements Project site access and circulation evaluation
Impacts to transit, bikes, and pedestrians
Intersection operations were evaluated using the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) level of service methodology during the peak hours.
Existing Transportation Setting
Regional access to the project site is provided via Montague Expressway and North Capitol Avenue.
Local acces to the project site is provided by Lundy Place, Trade Zone Boulevard, and Tarob Court.
These roadways are described below.
Lundy Place is a north-south, two-lane roadway extending from the Union Pacific Railroad tracks in the north to Trade Zone Avenue in the south, where it becomes Lundy Avenue. Lundy Place terminates in a cul-de-sac approximately 650 feet north of Tarob Court.
Trade Zone Boulevard is an east-west, four-lane collector street extending from Montague Expressway in the west to Capitol Avenue in the east.
Tarob Court is a two-lane roadway extending west from Lundy Place. It provides access to the office/industrial buildings located to the west of Lundy Place and terminates in a cul-de-sac approximately 800 feet west of Lundy Place. Tarob Court provides direct access to the project site via a single driveway.
Existing bicycle access to the project vicinity is provided primarily via a network of nearby Class II bike lanes and Class III bike routes which are shared with vehicular traffic. Buffered Class II bike lanes are provided along Trade Zone Boulevard from Ringwood Avenue to Lundy Avenue. Conventional Class II bike lanes are present on Lundy Avenue south of Trade Zone Boulevard, McCandless Drive, and East Capitol Avenue. Currently, there are no bike facilities on Lundy Place or on Trade Zone Boulevard between Lundy Avenue and East Capitol Avenue. Existing Class III bike routes are present on Montague Expressway and Trade Zone Boulevard between Montague Expressway and Lundy Avenue.
Majority of the streets in the project vicinity have sidewalks, except the following street sections:
South side of Trade Zone Boulevard between Montague Expressway and Ringwood Avenue Both sides of Trade Zone Boulevard between Lundy Avenue and Autumnvale Drive West side of Lundy Place
Both sides of Tarob Court
The signalized intersection of Trade zone Boulevard and Lundy Avenue has crosswalks on all approaches. There are no crosswalks at the unsignalized intersection of Lundy Place and Tarob Court.

2001 Tarob Court Traffic Operations Report
Existing transit service in the area includes VTA buses and VTA light rail. One VTA bus stop is located about 500 feet south of the project site at the intersection of Trade Zone Boulevard and Lundy Avenue and is currently served by two bus routes: Route 77 and Route 831.
Route 77 is a VTA bus line that provides service between Eastridge Transit Center and Great Mall/Main Transit Center via King Road. Route 77 operates between 6:00 AM and 9:00 PM on weekdays, with headways between 15 and 20 minutes. Route 77 also provides weekend service.
Route 831 is an ACE line that provides service between the Great America ACE station and the Lundy Avenue/Commerce Drive intersection. Eastbound service is provided during weekday mornings between 6:00 AM and 9:00 AM with 45 to 60 minutes headways. Westbound service is provided during weekday afternoons between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM with 45 to 60 minutes headways. No service is provided during weekends.
VTA light-rail runs in the median of Great Mall Parkway/North Capitol Avenue. The closest light rail station (Cropley Station) is located near the Trade Zone Boulevard and North Capitol Avenue intersection, which is only 0.6 miles east of the project site.
In the future, BART service will be provided to the study area. As part of the BART extension to the South Bay, BART will pass through Milpitas, with the Milpitas Station located at the southeast corner of the Great Mall Parkway and Montague Expressway intersection. The station will be located approximately one-half mile north of the project site.
Observed Existing Traffic Conditions
Traffic conditions in the field were observed in order to identify existing operational deficiencies and to confirm the accuracy of calculated levels of service. The purpose of this effort was (1) to identify any existing traffic problems that may not be directly related to intersection level of service, and (2) to identify any locations where the level of service calculation does not accurately reflect level of service in the field.
The field observations revealed that the level of service analysis generally reflects actual existing traffic conditions. A summary of the observations is provided below.
Intersection at Lundy Avenue and Trade Zone Boulevard. During the AM peak hour, field observations showed that the queues for the westbound left-turn movement extended past the left-turn lane into the adjacent through lane on Trade Zone Boulevard. However, the long vehicular queues were able to clear in a single cycle. During the PM peak hour, long vehicular queues were observed on eastbound Trade Zone Boulevard. However, the eastbound through movement received adequate green time and all traffic was able to clear in one cycle. It should be noted that the proposed project would not add any trips to either of these movements.

Project Traffic Estimates
The magnitude of traffic produced by a new development and the locations where that traffic would appear were estimated using a three-step process: (1) trip generation, (2) trip distribution, and (3) trip assignment. In determining project trip generation, the magnitude of traffic entering and exiting the site was estimated for the AM and PM peak hours. As part of the project trip distribution step, an estimate was made of the directions to and from which the project trips would travel. In the project trip assignment step, the project trips were assigned to specific streets and intersections in the study area. These procedures are described further in the following paragraphs.
Through empirical research, data has been collected that correlate to common land uses their propensity for producing traffic. Thus, for the most common land uses there are standard trip generation rates that can be applied to help predict the future traffic increases that would result from a new development. The trip generation estimates for the proposed project are based on rates obtained from the Institute of Transportation Engineers’ (ITE) publication Trip Generation, 10th Edition. Based on trip generation rates for low-rise multi-family housing, the project would generate 20 trips during the AM peak hour and 26 trips during the PM peak hour. The project trip generation estimates are presented in Table 1.
As stated previously, the existing site is occupied by an office/industrial building that is currently in operation. Trips generated by existing uses on site can be credited against the proposed residential development. Based on AM and PM peak hour driveway counts conducted by Hexagon in May 2019, the existing land uses generate 11 AM peak hour trips and 12 PM peak hour trips. After applying these existing trip credits, the proposed project would generate 9 net AM peak hour trips and 14 net PM peak hour trips.
Table 1
Project Trip Generation Estimates
The trip distribution pattern for the proposed project was estimated based on the City of Milpitas Transit Area Specific Plan (TASP), of which the proposed development would be a part of. Trips were assigned to the roadway network in accordance with the TASP trip distribution for residential uses. The project trip distribution and net project trip assignment are shown on Figure 3.

Intersection Level of Service Analysis
Traffic volumes for existing conditions were determined from existing traffic counts conducted in May 2019. Traffic volumes for background conditions were estimated by adding to the existing traffic volumes the trips generated by approved and pending developments, which were estimated using the following three components:
1. Background growth traffic volumes used in the Tarob Master Plan1,
2. Nearby development projects, and
3. City of San Jose Approved Trips Inventory.
The traffic volumes for the study scenarios are shown in Figures 4 through 7. The roadway geometries and traffic control at the study intersections were assumed to remain unchanged under all study scenarios.
Traffic conditions at the study intersections were evaluated using level of service (LOS). Level of Service is a qualitative description of operating conditions ranging from LOS A, or free-flow conditions with little or no delay, to LOS F, or jammed conditions with excessive delays. The signalized intersection of Lundy Avenue and Trade Zone Boulevard is under the jurisdiction of City of San Jose. The City of San Jose utilizes TRAFFIX software and the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2000 methodology to evaluate intersection operations. The HCM methodology evaluates intersection operations on the basis of average delay time for all vehicles at the intersection. This average delay can then be correlated to a level of service. In San Jose, the minimum acceptable level of service is LOS D, and project impacts at signalized intersections occur when:
1. The level of service at an intersection drops below its LOS standard when project traffic is added; or
2. An intersection that is operating worse than its level of service standard under no project conditions has an increase in critical delay of four or more seconds AND the demand-to-capacity ratio (V/C) is increased by more than 0.01 when project traffic is added.
The exception to this threshold is when the addition of project traffic reduces the amount of average delay for critical movements (i.e. the change in average delay for critical movements is negative). In this case, the threshold is when the project increases the V/C value by 0.01 or more.
A significant impact at a signalized intersection is said to be satisfactorily mitigated when measures are implemented that would restore intersection levels of service to an acceptable LOS or restore the intersection to operating levels that are better than no project conditions The results of the intersection level of service analysis are summarized in Table 2. The level of service calculation sheets are included in Appendix B. The results show that the signalized intersection at Trade Zone Boulevard and Lundy Avenue would operate at LOS D or better under existing and background conditions with or without the proposed project. According to City of San Jose level of service standards, the project would therefore have no impacts on intersection level of service.

2001 Tarob Court Traffic Operations Report
The study intersections of Lundy Avenue/Tarob Court and Project Driveway/Tarob Court are unsignalized and under the jurisdiction of City of Milpitas. Unlike signalized intersections, which typically represent constraint points for the roadway network, unsignalized intersections rarely limit the potential capacity of a roadway. The determination of appropriate improvements to unsignalized intersections typically includes a qualitative and quantitative analysis of movement delay, traffic signal warrants, movement traffic volumes, availability of alternate routes, and intersection safety. For this reason, improvements to unsignalized intersections are frequently determined on the basis of professional judgment. The City of Milpitas does not apply significance thresholds to unsignalized intersections. Both unsignalized study intersections are projected to operate at LOS A under existing and background conditions, with or without the proposed project.
An assessment was conducted to determine whether the traffic volumes at the Lundy Avenue/Tarob Court intersection would warrant the installation of a traffic signal. This assessment was based on the Peak Hour Volume Signal Warrant (Warrant #3) described in the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD). This method makes no evaluation of intersection level of service, but simply provides an indication whether peak hour traffic volumes would be sufficient to justify installation of a traffic signal. The signal warrant analysis sheets are included in the Appendix. The analysis showed that the peak hour volume warrant would not be satisfied at the Lundy Avenue/Tarob Court intersection under any study scenarios during the AM and PM peak hours.
Vehicle Queuing Analysis
A vehicle queuing analysis was conducted for the eastbound left-turn movement at the Trade Zone Boulevard/Lundy Avenue intersection and the northbound left-turn at the Tarob Court/Lundy Avenue intersection. The queuing analysis was conducted for both background and background plus project conditions. Vehicle queues were estimated using a Poisson probability distribution. The basis of the analysis is as follows: (1) the Poisson probability distribution is used to estimate the 95th percentile maximum number of queued vehicles per signal cycle for a particular movement; (2) the estimated maximum number of vehicles in the queue is translated into a queue length, assuming 25 feet per vehicle; and (3) the estimated maximum queue length is compared to the existing or planned available storage capacity for the movement. This analysis thus provides a basis for estimating future storage requirements at intersections. The results of this analysis are summarized below and in Table 3 for the AM and PM peak hours. The analysis indicates that, with the addition of project traffic, the 95th percentile vehicle queues could be accommodated by the storage provided at the subject locations. 525

Impacts to Transit, Bikes, and Pedestrians
According to the VTA (Santa Clara County CMP) Transportation Impact Analysis Technical Guidelines, a project would create an impact on pedestrian and bike circulation if: (1) it would reduce, sever or eliminate existing or planned bike/pedestrian access and circulation in the area; (2) it would preclude, modify, or otherwise affect proposed bicycle and pedestrian projects and/or policies identified in the Lead Agency’s adopted bicycle/pedestrian plan, or the plans of other agencies such as the Countywide Bicycle Plan or adjacent Cities’ bicycle/pedestrian plans; or (3) it would cause a change to existing bike paths such as alignment, width of the trail ROW, or length of the trail.
The project site is located within the City of Milpitas Transit Area Specific Plan (TASP). The plan oversees the redevelopment of the southern portion of the City that transforms a low-density industrial area to an urban residential and mixed-use district with an emphasis on walkability and bicycling. The plan includes a new street system that promotes walking and biking as the dominant modes for short internal trips, especially with the future Milpitas BART station and VTA light rail system within close proximity to the project site. As part of the Milpitas TASP, a future street connection and pedestrian bridge across Capitol Avenue are planned to connect Tarob Court to Milpitas Boulevard and the new BART station. A proposed Class III bike route is also planned on Tarob Court to serve this new bicycle access route to the transit center.
As part of project improvements, curb extensions with new sidewalks would be installed along the Tarob Court and Lundy Place project frontages. In addition, the two existing driveways at the project site will be reduced into one new site driveway on Tarob Court, which would reduce the number of potential vehiclepedestrian conflict points.
The proposed project would generate pedestrian trips to/from transit stops, recreation areas, and employment centers. Overall, the volume of pedestrian trips generated by the project is expected to be relatively low and not exceed the carrying capacity of the sidewalks and crosswalks nearby. U.S. Census data indicate that bicycle trips comprise less than one percent of the total commute mode share in the City of Milpitas. For the proposed project, this would equate to approximately one new bike trip during each of the AM and PM peak hours. The low volume of bicycle trips generated by the project would not exceed the bicycle-carrying capacity of streets surrounding the site, and the increase in bicycle trips would not by itself require new off-site bicycle facilities.
The addition of the project would not remove any existing bike/pedestrian facilities, nor would it preclude any future planned improvements. Because most intersections around the project site are signalized and have very few bike/pedestrian activities, the addition of project traffic would have a negligible effect on walking and biking in the project vicinity. Therefore, the proposed project would not create an adverse impact to bike/pedestrian circulation in the area.
According to the VTA TIA Technical Guidelines, a project would create an impact on transit if: (1) it would generate a demand for additional transit services; or (2) it would cause a permanent or temporary reduction of transit availability or interference with existing transit users, e.g., relocation/closure of a transit stop or vacation of a roadway utilized by transit.
According to the Milpitas TASP, transit trips would comprise approximately 9% of all peak hour trips. For the proposed project, assuming 9 percent of total commute trips would be transit trips, this would generate approximately 1 new transit trip during the AM peak hour and 2 new transit trips during the PM peak hour. In addition to commute trips, there will be additional transit trips to nearby schools, parks, and shopping areas. The volume of transit trips generated by the project would not exceed the carrying capacity of the existing transit service to the site.
The addition of the project would not remove any existing transit facilities, nor would it preclude any future planned improvements. As shown in the LOS calculations, the addition of project traffic would have a negligible effect on bus delays the project vicinity. Therefore, based on the VTA Technical Guidelines, the proposed project would not create an adverse impact to transit operations in the area and no 527
2001 Tarob Court Traffic Operations Report
improvements to existing transit service frequencies would be necessary in conjunction with the proposed project.
Site Access
This site access and circulation review is based on the site plan (dated October 2018) provided to Hexagon (see Figure 2). The site would be accessed by one driveway on Tarob Court on the west end of the property, about 200 feet west of the intersection at Lundy Place and Tarob Court. The proposed site driveway would be located at approximately the same location as the existing driveway on Tarob Court for the existing building at the project site. The width of the site driveway entry is 22 feet, which meets the minimum City standard for driveways. Under project conditions, it is anticipated that this driveway would serve approximately 20 AM peak hour project trips and 26 PM peak hour project trips. The project condition traffic volumes at the site driveway are shown on Figure 2.
There are existing driveways serving other parcels on Tarob Court adjacent to and opposite of the project frontage. The site driveway does not align with the existing driveway on the opposite side of Tarob Court, but is offset about 25 feet. There is also another existing driveway beside the site driveway on Tarob Court about 50 feet to the west. The spacing of the site driveway, and its location relative to existing driveways, are acceptable given the relatively low traffic volumes at the nearby driveways and Tarob Court.
According to the level of service and queuing calculations, the site driveway would operate at LOS A with queues rarely exceed one or two vehicles during the AM and PM peak hours. The vehicle queues at the site driveway could be accommodated in the storage space provided, and the onsite queues would generally not interfere with traffic operations on Tarob Court and Lundy Avenue.
Pedestrian access to the project site is provided at locations along the frontage on Tarob Court and Lundy Place. Primary pedestrian access is provided via the main entry facing the sidewalks on Tarob Court. Besides the primary access on Tarob Court, there would be walking paths connecting the parking garage with the existing sidewalks on Lundy Place on the east side of the property. As mentioned previously, new sidewalks with curb extensions will also be installed on the project frontage on Tarob Court, providing a continuous pedestrian pathway to existing sidewalks on Trade Zone Boulevard via Lundy Place. Overall, the network of pedestrian paths and the sidewalk improvements on the project frontages provide adequate access to the existing sidewalk network in the project vicinity.
Recommendation 1: To accommodate pedestrians, the project should consider adding one new ADA-compliant curb ramp at the existing northwest curb return at Tarob Court and Lundy Place (along the project frontage). A striped crosswalk is also recommended when the opposite side of the curb return would be upgraded with a new curb ramp along with the redevelopment of the parcel at 1996 Tarob Court.
Currently, the Tarob Court approach at the Tarob Court/Lundy Place intersection is yield controlled. If the striped crosswalk described above were to be added, the Tarob Court approach should also be converted to a stop-controlled approach in order to improve safety for crossing pedestrians.
The sight distance at the project driveway on Tarob Court was checked and determined to be adequate.
Because the project would install a curb extension, which includes adding sidewalks on the Tarob Court frontage, the site driveway would be shifted closer to the centerline of Tarob Court, thereby further improving the sight distance for vehicles exiting the site driveway. As part of the project improvements, the radius of the existing curb return along the project frontage at the Lundy Place/Tarob Court intersection would be reduced. This improvement would help reduce vehicle speeds on Tarob Court, and therefore, improve the sight distance required for vehicles entering and exiting the driveways.
Recommendation 2: Prior to final design, the placement of any landscaping, monuments, and signs within the sight triangles of the site driveway should be reviewed by Public Works staff to ensure adequate corner sight distance.
528
2001 Tarob Court Traffic Operations Report
Recommendation 3: As a result of the proposed curb extensions on Tarob Court and Lundy Avenue, the cross-section widths for both streets would be reduced and on-street parking would not be able to be accommodated. Therefore, on-street parking along the project frontages on Tarob Court and Lundy Avenue should be restricted.
Site Circulation
The project site includes an open parking lot and a parking garage on the ground level. Onsite parking areas would be accessed by one site driveway on Tarob Court. Both the open parking lot and parking garage follow a standard 90-degree parking layout. The main parking aisle and the two east-west feeder parking aisles inside the garage are 26 and 24 feet wide, respectively, which meets the City’s standard for 90-degree parking. However, the north-south parking aisle connecting the two east-west parking aisle is not dimensioned. The dimensions of the regular and compact parking spaces are 9 feet by 18 feet and 8 feet by 15 feet, respectively. Both parking space dimensions meet the minimum City standards.
However, the widths of the parking garage entrances are not dimensioned.
Upon entering the garage, vehicles would follow the main drive aisle through the open parking lot and arrive at a roundabout at the southern end of the aisle. The two feeder drive aisles, which are connected at right angles to the main drive aisle, would provide access to the parking garage east of the main drive aisle. The ends of the two feeder drive aisles are connected by another drive aisle, forming a U-shape circulation pattern which makes a complete loop around of the parking garage. The layout shows no dead-end aisles.
Recommendation 4: Because the proposed site plan is conceptual, prior to final design, the design and layout of the parking garage, drive aisles and driveways, should be reviewed by Public Works staff.
The last two parking spaces (numbered 67 and 68) in the open parking lot located off the main drive aisle are approximately 20 feet south of the sidewalk on Tarob Court, and approximately 30 feet south of the beginning of the site driveway. Vehicles parked in these spaces would have to back out directly into the main site access aisle, potentially into the line of incoming traffic on the aisle just turning into the site driveway. However, given the low traffic volumes at the site driveway and on Tarob Court, the design is acceptable.
The site plan shows one elevator at the front lobby that would provide residents access to the parking garage. The sidewalk on Tarob Court would be accessed directly from the front lobby while the sidewalk on Lundy Avenue would be accessed from pedestrian pathways connecting with the parking garage. No bicycle parking facilities are shown on the site plan.
Recommendation 5: The project applicant should demonstrate that adequate short term and long term bicycle parking is provided in accordance with City of Milpitas parking code requirements.
A trash collection room is located adjacent to the roundabout at the southern entrance of the parking garage. The roundabout has a 80-foot outside diameter and a 26 feet wide lane that would allow turnaround maneuvers of garbage trucks as noted on the site plan. Therefore, garbage trucks would perform their operations onsite within the development. The site plan does not show a designated loading area for delivery trucks.
Recommendation 6: The project should indicate on the site plan loading locations for delivery trucks.

2001 Tarob Court Traffic Operations Report
Conclusions & Recommendations
The impacts of the proposed project were evaluated in accordance with the procedures and guidelines specified by the City of Milpitas. The analysis resulted in the following key findings:
The proposed project would not result in any level of service impacts to the study intersections. The proposed project would not result in any queuing storage deficiencies at the study intersections.
The project would not create any impacts on pedestrian, bike, or transit facilities.
The analysis also produced the following recommendations:
To accommodate pedestrians, the project should consider adding one new ADA-compliant curb ramp along the project frontage curb return at the Tarob Court and Lundy Place intersection. A striped crosswalk is also recommended when the opposite side of the curb return would be upgraded with a new curb ramp along with the redevelopment of the parcel at 1996 Tarob Court. Prior to final design, the placement of any landscaping, monuments, and signs within the sight triangles of the site driveway should be reviewed by Public Works staff to ensure adequate corner sight distance.
As a result of the proposed curb extensions on Tarob Court and Lundy Place, the cross-section widths for both streets would be reduced and on-street parking would not be able to be accommodated. Therefore, on-street parking along the project frontages on Tarob Court and Lundy Place should be restricted.
Because the proposed site plan is conceptual, prior to final design, the design and layout of the parking garage, drive aisles and driveways, should be reviewed by Public Works staff. The project applicant should demonstrate that adequate short term and long term bicycle parking is provided in accordance with City of Milpitas parking code requirements. The project should indicate on the site plan loading locations for delivery trucks. 530

SIGNAL WARRANT DISCLAIMER
This peak hour signal warrant analysis should be considered solely as an "indicator" of the likelihood of an unsignalized intersection warranting a traffic signal in the future. Intersections that exceed this warrant are probably more likely to meet one or more of the other volume based signal warrant (such as the 4-hour or 8-hour warrants).
The peak hour warrant analysis in this report is not intended to replace a rigorous and complete traffic signal warrant analysis by the responsible jurisdiction. Consideration of the other signal warrants, which is beyond the scope of this software, may yield different results.

SIGNAL WARRANT DISCLAIMER
This peak hour signal warrant analysis should be considered solely as an "indicator" of the likelihood of an unsignalized intersection warranting a traffic signal in the future. Intersections that exceed this warrant are probably more likely to meet one or more of the other volume based signal warrant (such as the 4-hour or 8-hour warrants).
The peak hour warrant analysis in this report is not intended to replace a rigorous and complete traffic signal warrant analysis by the responsible jurisdiction. Consideration of the other signal warrants, which is beyond the scope of this software, may yield different results.

SIGNAL WARRANT DISCLAIMER
This peak hour signal warrant analysis should be considered solely as an "indicator" of the likelihood of an unsignalized intersection warranting a traffic signal in the future. Intersections that exceed this warrant are probably more likely to meet one or more of the other volume based signal warrant (such as the 4-hour or 8-hour warrants).
The peak hour warrant analysis in this report is not intended to replace a rigorous and complete traffic signal warrant analysis by the responsible jurisdiction. Consideration of the other signal warrants, which is beyond the scope of this software, may yield different results. 558

SIGNAL WARRANT DISCLAIMER
This peak hour signal warrant analysis should be considered solely as an "indicator" of the likelihood of an unsignalized intersection warranting a traffic signal in the future. Intersections that exceed this warrant are probably more likely to meet one or more of the other volume based signal warrant (such as the 4-hour or 8-hour warrants).
The peak hour warrant analysis in this report is not intended to replace a rigorous and complete traffic signal warrant analysis by the responsible jurisdiction. Consideration of the other signal warrants, which is beyond the scope of this software, may yield different results.

SIGNAL WARRANT DISCLAIMER
This peak hour signal warrant analysis should be considered solely as an "indicator" of the likelihood of an unsignalized intersection warranting a traffic signal in the future. Intersections that exceed this warrant are probably more likely to meet one or more of the other volume based signal warrant (such as the 4-hour or 8-hour warrants).
The peak hour warrant analysis in this report is not intended to replace a rigorous and complete traffic signal warrant analysis by the responsible jurisdiction. Consideration of the other signal warrants, which is beyond the scope of this software, may yield different results.

This peak hour signal warrant analysis should be considered solely as an "indicator" of the likelihood of an unsignalized intersection warranting a traffic signal in the future. Intersections that exceed this warrant are probably more likely to meet one or more of the other volume based signal warrant (such as the 4-hour or 8-hour warrants).
The peak hour warrant analysis in this report is not intended to replace a rigorous and complete traffic signal warrant analysis by the responsible jurisdiction. Consideration of the other signal warrants, which is beyond the scope of this software, may yield different results.

Memorandum
Date: April 28, 2021
To: Leah Beniston, Vice President–Entitlements, TTLC Tarob 4, LLC From: Jason Brandman, Vice President/Director and Phil Ault, Senior Project Manger Subject: Qualitative Consistency Analysis Summary for the 2001 Tarob Court Project
INTRODUCTION
This memorandum provides a qualitative California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) consistency analysis summary for a 32-unit residential development project (Project) proposed by The True Life Companies (Applicant or TTLC) on a 1.22-acre site located at 2001 Tarob Court (Project Site). The Project Site is located within the planning area for the Milpitas Transit Area Specific Plan (TASP) and is designated as High-Density Transit Oriented Residential (HD-TOR) in both the Milpitas General Plan and the TASP. The Project Site is currently developed with industrial office use. Residential development on the Project Site has been evaluated in previous environmental documents associated with the TASP and a previously approved project on the Project Site, as explained below.
Environmental impacts associated with the implementation of the TASP were evaluated in the Final Environmental Impact Report (TASP EIR) certified in 2008, which included analysis of development of 7,100 units of residential development and 18,000 new residents as relevant to TTLC’s proposed Project.
In 2017, TTLC obtained approval from the City of Milpitas (City) of a General Plan Amendment and TASP Amendment modifying the site from Industrial Park (INP) to HD-TOR, and a Zoning Amendment to rezone the Project Site from Industrial Park with Transit Oriented Development Overlay (MP-TOD) to Multiple Family, High Density with Transit Oriented Development Overlay (R3-TOD). The City evaluated the potential environmental impacts associated with the General Plan amendment and TASP Amendment though an Addendum to the 2008 TASP EIR.
In September 2019, TTLC obtained approval of a Site Development Permit, Conditional Use Permit, Vesting Tentative Map, and Environmental Assessment for the development of a 40-unit residential condominium building on the Project Site (2019 Approved Project). The 2019 Project was analyzed for consistency with the TASP EIR, including the 2017 Addendum. LSA Associates prepared a June 2019 Exemption Memo in addition to an Environmental Checklist pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15168 documenting the City’s analysis. Based on this analysis, the City approved an Addendum to the TASP EIR for the 2019 Project and also stated as an independent basis for compliance with CEQA, that the 2019 Approved Project was exempt from CEQA review pursuant to Guidelines Section 15182 (Project 585

Consistent with a Specific Plan), 15183 (Project Consistent with the General Plan), and 15168 (Projects Consistent with a Program EIR).
The current 32-unit Project proposed by TTLC is very similar to the 2019 Approved Project, as summarized in the next section. In order to assess the proposed Project’s CEQA impacts, FCS reviewed the TASP EIR, 2017 Addendum, as well as the 2019 Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist prepared by LSA Associates. This memorandum provides a qualitative consistency analysis confirming that the proposed Project is still within the scope of the TASP EIR, including the 2017 Addenda to the TASP EIR, and the proposed Project will not have any new significant or more severe impacts beyond what was previously identified and evaluated for the 2019 Approved Project.
PROPOSED PROJECT
The Project proposes to develop 32 townhomes consisting of two buildings ranging from 3-4 stories in height with 4, 2-bedroom 2-bath units 1,854 gross square feet in size, 12, 3-bedroom 2-bath units ranging from 1,888 to 1,916 gross square feet, and 16, 3-bedroom, 3-bath units ranging from 2,090 to 2,354 gross square feet. All units will have a tandem 2-car garage. The Project will also provide 9 guest spaces, 10 public bicycle parking spaces, 2 electric vehicle charging spaces, and 2 ADA parking spaces.
The Project will gain ingress and egress from both Tarob Court and Lundy Place via both existing driveway curb cuts. The Project Site is approximately 1.2 acres and is currently developed with an industrial office building that is currently in use. The project site is located within a light industrial area of Milpitas that is predominantly developed with commercial office parks and other buildings for industrial and commercial uses with Tarob Court to the north, Lundy Place to the east, and commercial and light industrial land uses to the west and south. The Project site is designated Multi-Family Residential High Density (MFH) Within the City’s General Plan.
PROJECT CHANGES
The design changes that are now proposed as part of the Project are summarized in Table 1. The table provides a comparison of the 2019 Approved Project (as analyzed under the Environmental Checklist and Exemption Memo prepared by LSA Associates in June 2019) and the current proposed Project.

CONSISTENCY ANALYSIS SUMMARY
This qualitative consistency analysis summary confirms that the proposed Project is still within the scope of the TASP EIR, including the 2017 Addendum, and will not have any new significant or more severe impacts beyond what was identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist prepared by LSA Associates.
Aesthetics
Scenic Vistas
The proposed Project is not located within a scenic viewshed or along a State Scenic Highway or other scenic highway. While intermittent views of the Milpitas foothills to the northeast are available from the Project Site, no on-site parks or open spaces have views of the foothills. The proposed Project would comply with the TASP policies and design standards; therefore, it would neither result in new significant impacts nor substantially increase the severity of impacts related to scenic vistas beyond what was previously identified and analyzed in the TASP EIR, 2017 Addendum to the TASP EIR, and 2019 LSA Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Scenic Resources
There are no scenic resources located on the Project Site. Therefore, the impacts associated with the proposed Project would not result in new significant impacts to scenic resources or substantially increase the severity of those impacts beyond what was previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Visual Character
The TASP allows buildings in the R3-TOD district up to 75 feet in height and requires a density of 21-40 dwelling units per acre. The proposed Project would include construction of a four-story building that would be approximately 55 feet in height with a density of approximately 25 dwelling units per acre.
Therefore, the proposed Project would meet the building height limits and density standards set in the TASP design standards and would not conflict with zoning or other regulations governing scenic quality.
Hence, the proposed Project would not result in new significant impacts or increase the severity of impacts to visual character beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Light and Glare
To minimize potential light and glare impacts, the proposed Project would implement and be consistent with TASP development standards that address street and outdoor lighting. Therefore, the proposed Project would not create significant impacts or increase the severity of impacts related to light and glare beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.

Agriculture and Forestry Resources
The project site is located within the TASP Area, is not used for agriculture, thus, the proposed Project would have no impacts on agriculture or forestry resources. Therefore, the proposed Project would neither result in new significant impacts nor substantially increase the severity of impacts related to agriculture and forestry resources beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Air Quality
Clean Air Act
Since April 19, 2017, the City has been required to adhere to the Bay Area Air Quality Management District’s (BAAQMD’s) current Clean Air Plan. The proposed Project would adhere to the Clean Air Plan and would not substantially increase population, vehicle trips or VMT. The proposed Project would implement the TASP measures, including provision of continuous pedestrian sidewalks and safe bike routs, encouragement of walking to nearby destinations, and provision of incentives for alternate modes of transportation. The proposed Project would decrease the number of proposed dwelling units compared to the 2019 Approved Project, resulting a slight decrease in overall project emissions.
Therefore, the proposed Project would not result in new significant or more severe impacts than those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Regional Air Pollutant Emissions
The proposed Project would still result in redevelopment of the site with new residential uses. The new uses would result in mobile air quality impacts from increased vehicle trips to and from the Project Site and air quality impacts such as emissions generated from the use of landscaping equipment and consumer products. Emission estimates for operation of the 2019 Approved Project indicated that the proposed Project would not exceed the significance criteria for annual ROG, NO2, PM10, or PM2.5 emissions. Since the proposed Project would involve fewer dwelling units and an estimated slight decrease in average daily trips, buildout of the proposed Project would not result in new significant or more severe impacts than those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Construction Related Impacts
Construction emissions were analyzed for the 2019 Approved Project and were shown to be less than significant for ROG, NO2, PM10, or PM2.5 emissions. Therefore, construction of the proposed Project would result in similar construction-related, short-term air quality impacts as those impacts identified in the TASP EIR. The proposed Project would implement the BAAQMD’s Basic Construction Mitigation Measures, reducing construction fugitive dust impacts to a less-than-significant level. Therefore, the proposed Project would not result in any new significant or more severe construction-related air quality impacts than those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.

Localized Carbon Monoxide Impacts
The proposed Project would decrease the number of proposed dwelling units and would therefore result in an estimated slight decrease in average daily vehicle trips. Therefore, proposed Project would not result in new significant or more severe impacts related to localized carbon monoxide than those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Local Community Risk and Hazard Impacts to Sensitive Receptors Similar to the 2019 Approved Project, none of the changes associated with the proposed Project would include additional TAC sources on the Project Site. Therefore, implementation of the proposed Project would not expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations.
Objectionable Odors
Implementation of the changes associated with the proposed Project would not include any activities or operations that would generate objectionable odors and, once operational, the Project would not be a source of odors affecting a substantial number of people. The proposed Project would not result in any new significant or more severe odor impacts than those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Biological Resources
Currently, the Project site is developed with light industrial and commercial uses. With implementation of TASP Policy 5.26, buildout of the 2019 Approved Project was shown to not result in impacts related to protected plants and wildlife and would not create impacts related to riparian habitat that are new or more significant than those analyzed in the TASP EIR. With implementation of TASP Policy 5.29, requiring setbacks from creeks to be a minimum of 25 feet from the top of a bank, the 2019 Approved Project was shown to not create impacts related to wetlands that are new or more significant that those analyzed in the TASP EIR. With implementation of TASP Policy 5.27, requiring a qualified biologist to conduct a survey that would be appropriate according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the 2019 Approved Project was shown to not create any impacts related to migrating wildlife. The analysis also identified that the 2019 Approved Project would result in the removal of trees on the project site and the planting of approximately 40 new trees.
The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint and with the same impacts as the 2019 Approved Project. Moreover, the proposed Project would comply with all the same policies and measures of the TASP EIR and, therefore, would not create any new significant or more severe impacts related to biological resources than those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.

Cultural Resources
The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint and with the same impacts as the 2019 Approved Project. The proposed Project would implement Policy 5.34 from TASP, and therefore, the Project would not lead to any new or more severe impacts to archaeological resources that would occur beyond those already identified in the TASP EIR and Addenda. In addition, the proposed Project would still report any discovery of human remains on the Project Site according to Sections 21083.2 and 21084.1 of the Public Resources Code and would therefore not result in any new significant or more severe cultural resource impacts beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Energy
The proposed Project would decrease the number of proposed dwelling units compared to the 2019 Approved Project. Therefore, the proposed Project would result in an estimated slight decrease in overall operational energy consumption. The proposed Project would also result in an estimated slight decrease in average daily vehicle trips compared to the 2019 Approved Project and would therefore result in a slight decrease in gas-related energy consumption. The proposed Project would still implement TASP Policy 3.21 3.22, and 3.33 which would further ensure that operational energy use of the project would be reduced to less than significant levels. In addition, the proposed Project would still be constructed to CALGreen standards, which would help to reduce energy and natural gas consumption. The Project would not result in wasteful, inefficient or unnecessary consumption of energy resources during construction or operation; therefore, no new significant or more severe impacts related to energy efficiency would occur beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Geology and Soils
Similar to the 2019 Approved Project, the proposed Project would still comply with the General Plan Policies and TASP Policies related to geological and soil impacts. The TASP EIR adequately evaluated the potential impacts related to geology and soils resulting from the 2019 Approved Project. The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint as the 2019 Approved Project. Therefore, implementation of the proposed Project would result in no new significant or more severe geological or soil resource impacts beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the 2019 Approved Project were calculated using CALEEMOD. The results showed that the 2019 Approved Project would not exceed the BAAQMD threshold. The proposed Project would decrease the number of proposed dwelling units and would result in an estimated slight decrease in average daily vehicle trips compared to the 2019 Approved Project. Therefore, implementation of the proposed Project would not result in new significant or more severe impacts related to GHG emissions beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.

Hazards and Hazardous Materials
The previous analysis for the 2019 Approved Project demonstrated that compliance with TASP policies regarding release of hazardous materials and risk of upset, emissions of hazardous materials near a school, and clean-up of hazardous materials at the project site would reduce any impact relating to hazardous materials to less than significant levels. No mitigation was required for aviation hazards, emergency response or evacuation plan, wildfires, or the transport, use, storage, or disposal of hazardous materials.
However, the Tier 1 Environmental Screening Levels (ESLs) were revised in 2019, which resulted in lower screening levels. The benzene concentrations previously detected in the soil, soil vapor, and ground water are above the revised Tier 1 ESLs. It is understood that the applicant desires to enter into an oversight agreement with Santa Clara County Department of Environmental Health (DEH) for further Site assessment work and to evaluate what, if any, soil vapor mitigation measures are required. The applicant will coordinate initial agency oversite activities with the DEH to move to a Phase 2 Site Management Plan. These activities also include completion of the Application for Regulatory Oversight form and submittal of all applicable reports to the DEH. The DEH will issue a Remedial Action Agreement after their scoping meeting with the applicant. Once the applicant has executed this agreement, the DEH will issue a directive letter stating what next steps are required for further assessment. With implementation of this Remedial Action Agreement, potential Tier 1 impacts would be reduced to less than significant and the proposed Project would not result in any new significant or more severe hazards or hazardous materials impacts beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Hydrology and Water Quality
The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint and would develop 8 fewer dwelling units as the 2019 Approved Project. Therefore, similar to the previous findings for the 2019 Approved Project, compliance with required state and local regulation and implementation of mitigation regarding stormwater and dewatering during construction and operational use would ensure the proposed Project would not result in any new significant impacts and would not substantially increase the severity of impacts than those identified in the 2019 environmental checklist and the TASP EIR. The operation of the proposed Project would also not involve dewatering or the use of groundwater as potable water, therefore, the buildout of the proposed Project would not result in new significant impacts to groundwater resources or substantially increase the severity of impacts than those identified in the 2019 environmental checklist and the TASP EIR. The proposed Project is not located within a dam failure inundation area and is protected from flooding by a levee along Berryessa Creek northeast of the project. The implementation of the General Plan Policies 4d-G-1 and 4.d-I-1 and TASP Policies 5.33, 5.34, and 6.1 through 6.5, would ensure that long-term water quality impacts would not be significant. The proposed Project would also not result in new significant impacts related to flooding or inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow or substantially increase the severity of impacts than those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist. 591

April 28, 2021
Land Use and Planning
The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint and would develop 8 fewer dwelling units as the 2019 Approved Project. Therefore, similar to the previous findings for the 2019 Approved Project, the buildout of the proposed Project would not inhibit public connectivity, and would not physically divide a community; therefore, the impact regarding dividing an established community would be less than significant. The proposed project would be consistent with the existing land use and zoning designations of the project site. In addition, the development associated with the proposed Project is within the amount of growth evaluated and cleared within the TASP EIR and is compatible with existing and future residential uses in the vicinity of the Project Site; therefore, the density and intensity of the proposed Project would not result in any new significant or more severe impacts regarding conformance with land use plans and those already identified in the TASP EIR and Addenda. The proposed Project would conform to the TASP policies as well as the development standards provided in Chapter 5 of the TASP. Therefore, the proposed Project would not conflict with the establishment of planned land uses, would include land uses addressed by the TASP and would not result in any new significant or more severe land use compatibility impacts than those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Mineral Resources
The entire TASP Area, including the Project Site, is in a developed urban area that does not have mineral exploration or extraction occurring in the vicinity. In addition, the TASP Area is not designated as containing mineral resource deposits of regional importance. The proposed Project lies within the TASP area boundaries, and therefore, the proposed Project would have no impacts on mineral resources previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Noise
The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint and would develop 8 fewer dwelling units as the 2019 Approved Project. Therefore, similar to the previous findings for the 2019 Approved Project, the proposed Project would not result in any new significant or more severe construction-period noise impacts, ground vibration noise impacts, land use compatibility stationary noise source impacts, aircraft noise craft, or traffic noise impacts with implementation of the General Plan and TASP policies previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Population and Housing
The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint and would develop 8 fewer dwelling units as the 2019 Approved Project. Therefore, similar to the previous findings for the 2019 Approved Project, the proposed Project would not result in the displacement of a residential population, the expansion of urban services, or the opening of additional undeveloped land for future growth.
Therefore, the proposed Project would not result in new significant or more severe population growth and/or housing impacts than previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.

April 28, 2021
Public Services
The proposed Project would follow policies that would reduce Fire and Police Department impacts due to TASP development to less-than-significant levels. The proposed Project would develop 8 fewer dwelling units as the 2019 Approved Project and would therefore not affect the conclusions of the TASP EIR as the number of proposed residential units and resulting students is still withing the amount evaluated in the TASP EIR. The proposed Project would also not result in any new significant or more severe impacts to fire or police protection services, school impacts, or impacts on park facilities than those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Recreation
The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint and would develop 8 fewer dwelling units as the 2019 Approved Project. Therefore, the proposed Project would not result in any new significant or more severe impacts to existing neighborhood or regional park facilities beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
Transportation/Traffic
The proposed Project would develop 8 fewer dwelling units than the 2019 Approved Project, resulting in an anticipated slight reduction in average daily vehicle trips. Furthermore, the project would improve site access by including an additional EVA only access from Lundy Place. Further analysis is not required, because trip generation less than 100 peak hour trips, per the Valley Transportation Authority Congestion Management Program Transportation Impact Analysis Guidelines and the previous Hexagon report identified the proposed Project would not result in any level of service impacts or queuing storage deficiencies at the study intersections, and impacts to pedestrian, bicycle, or transit facilities. Therefore, the proposed Project would not result in any new significant more severe impacts beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist in regard to site circulation and access, pedestrian, bicycle, and transit facilities. The proposed Project would not be in conflict or be inconsistent with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3.
Tribal Cultural Resources
The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint and would develop 8 fewer dwelling units as the 2019 Approved Project. Therefore, the proposed Project would not result in any new significant or more severe impacts to tribal cultural resources beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist. 593

Utilities and Service Systems
The previous project included an off-site storm drain improvement within the City easement on the 1951 Tarob Court property. No deficiencies have been identified in this line; therefore, the proposed project is not providing the off-site storm drain improvement.
The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint and would develop 8 fewer dwelling units as the 2019 Approved Project. Therefore, the proposed Project is within the level of development evaluated in the TASP EIR, it would not result in any new significant or more severe impacts related to wastewater capacity and infrastructure than those identified in the 2019 environmental checklist and the TASP EIR. The proposed project would include the installation of new storm drain line on the project site and would connect to the existing 12-inch municipal storm drain located at the northwest corner of the project site. Therefore, no new significant or more severe impacts beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist would result from the project regarding water supply or solid waste.
Wildfire
The proposed Project would be constructed on the same footprint as the 2019 Approved Project. The Hazards and Hazardous Materials section of the TASP EIR determined that there were no Very High Hazard Severity Zones within the TASP Area. In addition, the project site is not located in or near any State responsibility areas. Therefore, the proposed Project would not result in any new significant or more severe impacts related to wildfire hazards beyond those previously identified for the 2019 Approved Project in the Exemption Memo and Environmental Checklist.
SUMMARY
This consistency analysis summary confirms that the proposed Project is still within the scope of the TASP EIR and will have no new significant or more severe impacts beyond those identified in the 2019 environmental checklist and the TASP EIR.

Project Manager
Subject: Peer Review- Traffic Operations Report for 2001 Tarob Court, Milpitas, CA and Trip Generation
INTRODUCTION
This memorandum provides a summary of TJKM’s peer review of the Traffic Operations Report for 2001 Tarob Court, Milpitas, CA¸ dated May 28, 2019, prepared by Hexagon Transportation Consultants (Hexagon Report). The Hexagon Report was prepared as part of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review for a 40-unit residential condominium project previously proposed by The True Life Companies (TTLC) and approved by the City of Milpitas in September 2019 (2019 Project).
TTLC is now proposing a 32-unit Project at 2001 Tarob Court (Project Site) which is very similar to the 2019 Project. The Project Site is located within the planning area for the Milpitas Transit Area Specific Plan (TASP) and is designated as High-Density Transit Oriented Residential (HDTOR) in both the Milpitas General Plan and the TASP. The Project Site is currently developed with industrial office use. Residential development on the Project Site has been evaluated in previous environmental documents associated with the TASP and the 2019 Project.
In order to assess the currently proposed Project’s traffic impacts, TJKM reviewed the Hexagon Report and also undertook additional quantitative trip generation analysis. This memorandum provides a peer review analysis of the Hexagon Report and confirms that the currently proposed Project will not have any new significant or more severe impacts beyond what was previously identified and evaluated for the 2019 Project.
TRAFFIC OPERATIONS REPORT REVIEW
The project description for the 2019 Project, as detailed in the Hexagon Report, proposed to demolish a 16,463 square feet office/industrial building and construct 40 condominium units. 595
TRLI-57368\2432962.1
VISION THAT MOVES YOUR COMMUNITY
The Hexagon Report is comprehensive, technically supportable, and well written. The trip generation in the Hexagon Report utilized the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation, 10th Edition to determine the trips for the multifamily housing, for low-rise (Code 220). For the existing office/industrial building use, Hexagon conducted a.m. and p.m. peak hour driveway counts in May 2019. For office/light-industrial, the driveway counts showed 11 a.m. peak hour trips and 12 p.m. peak hour trips. Based on this information, Hexagon determined the multi-family dwelling units would generate 20 a.m. peak hour trips and 26 p.m. peak hour trips. The 2019 Project, accounting for the existing industrial/office use, would net a total of nine a.m. peak hour trips and 14 p.m. peak hour trips.
TJKM reviewed the trip generation calculation with the current ITE 10th edition and found the trips for the 2019 Project are slightly lower at 18 a.m. peak hour trips and 22 p.m. peak hour trips, with a net total trips of seven a.m. peak hour, and 12 p.m. peak hour trips. This is nominal and should not affect the traffic operations analysis. Besides the slight discrepancy, TJKM is in agreement with the conclusions and recommendations of the report, and there was no significant impact to the study intersections.
NEW PROJECT TRIP GENERATION
Since the Hexagon Report was completed in 2019, TTLC has proposed a slightly revised development plan for the Project Site, changing from the previous 40 condominium units to 32 townhouse style units. TJKM prepared the following trip generation utilizing ITE Code 221 for mid-rise multifamily units. ITE Code 221 is for mid-rise multi-family units, three to five stories high. The previous Hexagon Report used ITE Code 220 for low-rise multi-family units up to two stories high. TJKM compared the use of the ITE Code 110 for General Light Industrial or the Hexagon Report, which conducted on-site driveway counts. TJKM utilized the ITE the driveway count data from the Hexagon Report for the existing use, however, since Daily trip rates were not available, TJKM utilized the ITE Daily Trip rate for industrial uses. Table 1, shows the project trip generation.

VISION THAT MOVES YOUR COMMUNITY
The currently proposed project, with 32 dwelling units, will net 92 daily trips, one a.m. peak hour trip and two p.m. peak hour trips. Table 2 shows a comparison of net trip generation between the Hexagon Report for the 2019 Project (with 40 units) and the proposed project (with 32 units). The 2019 Project had 8 more a.m. and 12 more p.m. peak hour trips, as detailed in the Hexagon Report, than the proposed Project. The reduction in trips for the Project is consistent with the reduction in units from the previous 2019 Project.

Further transportation analysis of the 32-unit proposed Project is not required, because it is less than 100 peak hour trips, per the Valley Transportation Authority Congestion Management Program Transportation Impact Analysis Guidelines. In addition, the Hexagon Report identified the 2019 Project would not result in any level of service (LOS) impacts or queuing storage deficiencies at the study intersections, and impacts to pedestrian, bicycle, or transit facilities.
Because the proposed Project will generate fewer trips than the 2019 Project, it will also not result in any impacts associated with LOS, queuing, or pedestrian, bicycle, and transit facilities. 597

SUBJECT: Peer Review of the Qualitative Consistency Analysis Summary for the 2001 Tarob Court Project
The purpose of this peer review is to determine whether the Qualitative Consistency Analysis Summary for the 2001 Tarob Court Project (Consistency Analysis) prepared by First Carbon Solutions dated April 28, 2021 meets the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
The Consistency Analysis was prepared by First Carbon Solutions under contract with TTLC Tarob 4, LLC, the project applicant for the proposed 2001 Tarob Court Project (proposed project). The City of Milpitas (City) is the Lead Agency.
Based on LSA’s review, the Consistency Analysis generally meets the requirements of CEQA and employs sound methods and analysis to develop its conclusions. LSA concurs with the finding that the proposed project is still within the scope of the Final Environmental Impact Report prepared for the Milpitas Transit Area Specific Plan (TASP FEIR) and subsequently prepared Categorical Exemption prepared for a previous version of the 2001 Tarob Court Project in June 2019, and would not have any new significant or more severe environmental impacts beyond those that have been previously identified. However, the following comments are provided to ensure that the Consistency Analysis is complete and adequately addresses the requirements of CEQA.
1. The Hazards and Hazardous Materials section on page 7 should include a discussion of the requirements of TASP Policies 5.20, 5.21, and 5.22. While the discussion on page 7 indicates that the project applicant would comply with these policies by coordinating with the Santa Clara County Department of Environmental Health (SCCDEH) and entering into a Remedial Action Agreement, it should be noted that the potential impacts related to Hazards and Hazardous Materials are addressed by existing TASP policies, and that coordination with SCCDEH and the Remedial Action Agreement are not new mitigation.
2. The Transportation/Traffic section on page 9 should incorporate the findings of the Peer Review‐Traffic Operations Report for 2001 Tarob Court, Milpitas CA and Trip Generation Technical Memorandum prepared by TJKM dated April 29, 2021. LSA’s transportation planning staff have reviewed this report and concur with the findings. 598

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The applicant, The True Life Companies, requests a Site Development Permit, Conditional Use Permit, Vesting Tentative Map, and Environmental Assessment to allow the development of a 32- unit townhome condominium subdivision, comprised of two multi-family buildings up to 50 feet in height, with tandem garages accessed from a central drive aisle, and associated site improvements on a 1.22-acre site located at 2001 Tarob Court in the Trade Zone/Montague Subdistrict of the Transit Area Specific Plan (TASP) area. The application was submitted in accordance with California Senate Bill 330 (Housing Crisis Act of 2019).
The project proposes a total of 32 townhome condominium units, consisting of two buildings ranging from three to four stories in height with two-bedroom and three-bedroom units. All units will have a tandem two-car garage. Five of the 32 units, or fifteen percent (15%) of the base units, will be affordable to moderate-income households in conformance with the City’s Affordable Housing Ordinance. By providing the required on-site affordable units, the project qualifies for certain parking waivers under the affordability provisions of the State Density Bonus Law.
Specifically, Government Code Section 65915(p)(5) permits eligible housing projects under the State Density Bonus Law to provide onsite parking through tandem parking or uncovered parking.
The proposed project requires approval of three entitlements, as follows:
1. Site Development Permit SD21-0004: To allow the development of two multi-family buildings, ranging from three to four stories in height, with up to 32 residential units on the
1.22-acre site; and
600
2. Conditional Use Permit UP21-0005: To allow the condominium use; and

4. Environmental Assessment EA21-0002: To review and verify an exemption from further environmental review under CEQA.
Staff reviewed the entitlement applications listed above and found them to be in compliance with the policies, standards, and processes outlined in the City of Milpitas 2040 General Plan, Transit Area Specific Plan (Milpitas Metro Specific Plan), Zoning Ordinance, Milpitas Municipal Code (MMC), and the State Density Bonus Law. Although the project is not requesting a density bonus, by providing the minimum number of required affordable housing units, the project qualifies for parking waivers under the State Density Bonus Law. Staff has reviewed the project for consistency with the affordable housing provisions of the State Density Bonus Law. The balance of this report provides specific details regarding each of the requested entitlements.
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission open and close the public hearing, consider the exemptions in accordance with CEQA and adopt Resolution No. 21-022, recommending approval of the Project to the Milpitas City Council, subject to the conditions of approval included in as Exhibit 1 within the above-referenced resolution.
BACKGROUND
History
The project site is currently occupied by a 16,200-square foot light industrial office building. The site was originally developed in the 1980s as part of the Tarob Court industrial park. On June 3, 2008, the City Council adopted the Transit Area Specific Plan (TASP or Plan). The Plan encompasses 437 acres and envisions the development of 7,109 residential dwelling units, 287,075 square feet of retail space, 993,843 square feet of office and industrial park space, and 350 hotel rooms. The Plan includes development standards, goals and policies to guide development within the Plan area. Because of the unique physical characteristics of various portions of the TASP, the Plan also established seven sub-districts, each with specific goals and policies to accommodate those unique characteristics.
The project site is located within the Trade Zone/Montague Sub-District of the TASP. This subdistrict is located east of Montague Expressway and south of Capitol Avenue, extending to the city limits on Trade Zone Boulevard and Lundy Place. On the Tarob Court side of the sub-district, the TASP envisions a moderate-to-high density residential area, with ample green space in the form of a large park and trails along Penitencia Creek. The Capitol Avenue and Montague Expressway portions of the sub-district are intended to be lined by mid-rise and high-rise mixed use buildings that buffer the adjacent residential uses from noise and traffic.
On November 2, 2018, TTLC submitted an application for a Site Development Permit, Conditional Use Permit and Vesting Tentative Map to develop a 40-unit condominium residential project at the project site. The Planning Commission recommended the City Council approve the above applications on July 31, 2019. On August 20, 2019, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 8899, approving the development application.
601
In March 2020, the City initiated an update to the TASP and rebranded this effort as the Milpitas Metro Specific Plan. The updated Plan will shape the continued transformation of neighborhoods surrounding the Milpitas Transit Center, which opened in June 2020, to create a vibrant transitoriented community with a mix of housing, retail, entertainment, and employment uses and a safe and attractive network of parks and trails. Future development within the Tarob Court area is a primary component of the Milpitas Metro Specific Plan, with a vision for higher-density mixeduse development based on a future direct connection to the Milpitas Transit Center via an extension of South Milpitas Blvd into the neighborhood.
On March 24, 2021, TTLC submitted a new preliminary application pursuant to California Senate Bill 330 (SB 330) for a 32-unit townhome subdivision at the project site. On April 30, 2021, TTLC submitted a formal application for the revised townhome project, which is at the lower end of the density range for residential development in the R3-TOD zoning district.
California Senate Bill 330 (Housing Crisis Act)
California Senate Bill 330 (SB 330), the Housing Crisis Act of 2019, became effective January 1, 2020 and declared a statewide housing emergency through January 1, 2025. The Housing Crisis Act allows an applicant to submit a preliminary application for any housing development project, as defined in Government Code Section 65589.5(h)(2). A housing development project includes the following: residential units only; mixed-use development consisting of residential and nonresidential uses with at least two-thirds of the square footage of the project designated for residential use; transitional housing or supportive housing.
Under SB 330, eligible housing development projects are eligible for enhanced streamlining and vesting opportunities through a process initiated by the filing of a preliminary application. Once the preliminary application is deemed complete by the local jurisdiction, the housing development project is subject only to the ordinances, policies, and standards adopted and in effect at the time the preliminary application was submitted. In addition, housing development projects that meet all applicable objective general plan and zoning standards may only be subject to a total of five public hearings, including continuances and most appeal hearings.
Once a preliminary application is deemed complete, a complete project application must be submitted and accepted by the Planning Department within 180 days of submission of the preliminary application. The project must also commence construction within 30 months after the date of final approval.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Overview
The applicant requests a Site Development Permit, Conditional Use Permit, Vesting Tentative Map, and Environmental Assessment for the future development of a 32-unit townhome condominium subdivision, comprised of two multi-family buildings up to 50 feet in height, with tandem garages accessed from a central drive aisle. The scope of work includes associated landscaping and open space, parking and circulation, and infrastructure improvements, as well as the demolition of an existing 16,200-square foot light industrial office building. 602
The 32 townhome condominium units consist of four two-bedroom units and 28 three-bedroom units. The units will range in size from 1,854 to 2,354 square feet and all units will have a tandem two-car garage. The project also provides nine guest parking spaces, ten public bicycle parking spaces, two electric vehicle charging spaces, and two ADA parking spaces. The project will gain ingress and egress from both Tarob Court and Lundy Place via both existing driveway curb cuts.
Five of the 32 units, or fifteen percent (15%) of the base units, will be affordable to moderateincome households in conformance with the City’s Affordable Housing Ordinance. By providing the required on-site affordable units, the project is also eligible for certain waivers under the affordability provisions of the State Density Bonus Law (Gov. Code § 65915 et seq.) even though the project is not asking for an increase in units or density. Specifically, Government Code Section 65915(p)(5) permits eligible housing projects under the State Density Bonus Law to provide onsite parking through tandem parking or uncovered parking. The analysis section of this staff report includes a full discussion of the State Density Bonus provisions related to this project.
Location and Context
The project is located on a 1.22-acre site on the west side of Tarob Court. The site is currently occupied by a 16,200-square foot light industrial office building. Figure 1 shows the location of the proposed project in an aerial image:

General Plan Conformance
The General Plan designation for the project site is Milpitas Metro Specific Plan (MMSP), but since City Council has not formally adopted the MMSP, the TASP development standards currently apply. The intent of both the MMSP and TASP standards is to facilitate development of higher intensity, mixed-use neighborhoods near the Milpitas Transit Center and to encourage walking, biking, and the use of alternative modes of transportation.
As proposed, the project is in conformance with the applicable policies and standards in the City’s General Plan, as outlined in Table 2:
Table 2: General Plan Consistency
Policy Conformance
Policy LU 1-4: Continue to provide for a
variety of housing types and densities that
meet the needs of individuals and families
and offers residents of all income levels, age
groups and special needs sufficient housing
opportunities and choices for locating in
Milpitas.
Consistent. The project provides an additional
housing type to meet the needs of various
families and residents of all income levels. The
project, as proposed, consists of 32 townhome
residential units, ranging from two to three
bedrooms. Five of the residential units will be
reserved for moderate-income households.
The City would prefer to see higher density
development at this location.
Policy LU 5-1: Require new development and
redevelopment to be compatible,
complementary and, where appropriate, well
integrated with existing residential areas.
Integrate new large-scale development
projects into the fabric of the existing
community rather than allowing projects to
be insular and self-contained, walled off, or
physically divided from surrounding uses.
Improve connectivity between neighborhoods
and services with new development. Tie
circulation systems and open spaces into
existing streets and open spaces. Reduce
unnecessary barriers and improve
connections between neighborhoods and
services by retrofitting existing development
over time as area improvements or
redevelopment occurs.
Consistent. The project, as proposed, is well
integrated with the existing residential
developments along Lundy Place and Tarob
Court, as the project has a similar architectural
style, building height, multi-family product,
and site layout. Additionally, the project will
gain ingress and egress from both Tarob Court
and Lundy Place via existing driveway curb
cuts, and as a result, the project will blend
seamlessly into the fabric of the existing
community. The project will also be
compatible and complementary to future highdensity residential development planned for other parcels on Tarob Court which are
currently developed with light industrial uses
but are zoned for redevelopment as similar
high-density residential uses.
Policy LU 5-3: Ensure new development is
consistent with specific height limits
established within the City’s Zoning
Consistent. The project meets the height
standards by proposing two three to four-story
buildings, up to 50 feet in height, in a zoning
605
Ordinance as applied through the zoning
district for all properties within the City.
district that allows a maximum height of 75
feet.
Transit Area Specific Plan Conformance
The TASP/MMSP land use designation for the project is High Density, Transit-Oriented Residential. This designation provides for medium-density residential uses within the Trade Zone/Montague Sub-District. As demonstrated in Table 3, the project is consistent with the applicable TASP/MMSP land use policies.
Table 3: TASP/MMSP Consistency
Policy Conformance
Policy 3.4: Provide a variety of housing types for
different types of households, different income
levels, different age groups, and different lifestyles.
Consistent. The proposed project will
provide various housing types, including
two and three-bedroom units for sale at
market-rate and five of the 32 units will be
for sale to moderate-income individuals or
households, consistent with the City’s
goal of providing housing for various
households and income levels. The City
would prefer to see higher density
development at this location.
Policy 3.17: New streets shall be located as
generally shown on the Street System Map, Figure
3-2 within the TASP
Consistent. A portion of the project’s
TASP fees will contribute to the new
Tarob Court configuration, designed to
replace the cul-de-sac with a local street
and connection to Sango Court.
Policy 3.2: Affordable housing units should be
provided with new housing developments.
Determine affordable unit requirements on a
project-by project basis, considering the size of the
project, the location of the site, and the mix of
affordable units in the Midtown Area. Allow
housing developments of 12 units or less to pay a
fee in lieu of providing affordable units.
Consistent. The project conforms to the
City’s Affordable Housing Ordinance and
will designate five out of the 32 units, or
fifteen percent (15%) of the base number
of units, for moderate-income level
individuals or households.
Policy 3.3: Affordable housing should be
integrated into all residential projects.
Consistent. The project will designate
five residential units for sale to moderateincome individuals or households and the units will be dispersed throughout the
project site.
606
Zoning Conformance
The project site is zoned R3 Multiple-Family High Density Residential with a Transit-Oriented Development (-TOD) Overlay. As demonstrated in Tables 4 and 5, the project is consistent with most of the applicable development standards for the R3 Multiple-Family High Density Residential Zoning District and TASP/MMSP area. The affordability provisions of the State Density Bonus Law allow the project to deviate from certain standards. A detailed discussion of the standards from which the project deviates follows Table 5.

The project’s form, content and dedications of the proposed tract map are consistent with the provisions in Title XI, Chapter 1, Section 4 of the City’s Municipal Code, as set forth in the attached Resolution No. 21-022. Vesting Tentative Maps require approval of a Resolution by the Planning Commission recommending final approval by the City Council.
Architectural Design
The project’s design concept arranges two multi-family buildings, three to four stories in height, that mirror one another across a central drive aisle. The arrangement preserves ground floor open space and creates a 26-foot wide drive aisle between the buildings. The project’s contemporary architectural design uses stucco, siding, stone tile veneer, and a variety of metal details.
Variations in the building colors, materials and planes and protruding balconies provide architectural interest and avoid a boxy appearance.
The building massing is broken up through an alternating painted color blocking treatment of dark green (SW “Dried Thyme”), light grey (SW “Natural Choice”), and steel blue (SW “Needlepoint Navy”). At the ground level, stone tile veneer and metal awnings frame the entry to 609
the units. The garage doors are face the interior drive aisle, while the grand raised entrances face Tarob Court to enhance the public realm of Tarob Court’s streetscape. The ground level entrances and private open space areas on the southern end of the property also offers residents the opportunity for out-of-doors leisure, as well as community engagement.
The project has a similar architectural style to the Parkside project and visually relates to the previously approved three-story townhouses across Tarob Court. Moreover, the project conforms to the Transit Area design guidelines, which require orientation of the building to the street, wellarticulated exterior walls with consistent style and materials, muted colors for primary building walls with richer accent colors and integrated parking.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the north and west building elevations.
Figure 3 – Proposed Project Looking Southeast from Tarob Court Tree Removal and Landscaping Requirements
The project includes removal of 34 existing trees, including 21 protected trees, from the project site. Pursuant to MMC Title X, Chapter 2 (Tree Maintenance and Protection), the project will plant two replacement trees for every one protected tree that is removed, or 128 new trees planted on the site. Tree species include Chinese Pistache, Magnolias, Lavender Crape Myrtle, and Crabapple. Other new landscaping around the perimeter of the site will include various shrubs (Australian Fuchsia, Candy Stripe Bamboo, Fortnight Lily, Lavender, New Zealand Flax), grasses (Reed Grass, Deer Grass, Fountain Grass) and groundcovers (Peach Drift, California Fuchsia, Pink Groundcover Rose) as demonstrated in Figure 4. Vines will also be welded on a wire mesh fence 610
on the southern end of the site.
Figure 4 – Landscape Plan
Parkland and Open Space Requirements
TASP requires all new developments to provide 3.5 acres of parkland for every 1,000 persons or payment of fees-in-lieu, as permitted by the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Section 66477) and as codified by MMC Section XI-1-9 (Improvements: Dedication of Land or Payment of Fee or Both, for Recreational Purposes). The Parkland Fee is based upon the estimated number of persons expected to inhabit the development (per U.S. Census definitions), and the estimated value of parkland in the City of Milpitas (currently $2,787,840 per acre). The U.S. Census estimates that 2.49 persons on average will inhabit each unit. The project proposes 32 units, resulting in an estimated population of 80 persons. Based on this population estimate, the project is required to provide 0.28 acres of parkland, equivalent to approximately $777,472.82.
Additionally, as mentioned above, all projects in the TASP area are required to pay a Transit Area Development Impact Fee (TADIF), a portion of which is used for park and recreation purposes within the TASP area. The park portion of the TASP fee for this project is valued at $690,061.12, equivalent to 0.25 acres of parkland. This amount will be applied to the project’s $777,472.82 parkland requirement, leaving a delta to be satisfied of 0.03 acres, or an in-lieu fee of approximately $87,411.70.
To satisfy the 0.03-acre delta, the project is proposing the use of 0.12 acres as private recreation space on-site, as allowed by MMC Section XI-1-9 referenced above. Each individual unit has a 611
private balcony, totaling 3,568 square feet. The private recreation areas also include a bench, mailbox station, concrete paving and various landscaping, as shown on Sheet L002 of the project plans (See Attachment B: Project Plans). By designing these elements into the project, the parkland requirement is met without additional fees. Table 6 outlines this information below.

Pursuant to MMC Section XII-1-3.00, all new residential development projects of ten units or more designed and intended for permanent occupancy are required to construct fifteen percent (15%) of the total number of dwelling units within the development as affordable units, unless subject to an exception set forth in XI-1-4.00. All exceptions require City Council approval.
The project will reserve five units (or fifteen percent (15%)) as affordable to moderate income households. The project has been conditioned to execute an agreement imposing appropriate ownership controls on the affordable units.
State Density Bonus Law
To encourage the production of affordable housing, the State Density Bonus Law (Gov. Code § 65915 et seq.) allows developers to receive a density bonus of up to a fifty percent (50%) increase for most projects, depending on the amount of affordable housing provided, and an eighty percent (80%) increase in density for projects that are one hundred percent (100%) affordable. The Density Bonus is a state mandate, and any developer who meets the requirements of the state law is entitled to receive the density bonus and other benefits as a matter of right. The City’s local Density Bonus Ordinance (MMC Section XI-10-54.15) mirrors the State requirements. 612
By providing the required on-site affordable units pursuant to MMC Section XII-I-3.00, the project is eligible to receive certain waivers under the affordability provisions of the State Density Bonus Law. While the project is not requesting additional density, it is entitled to up to one concession, unlimited waivers of development standards, and parking standard reductions.
Parking Requirements
Under the TASP, a minimum of 51 and a maximum of 64 resident parking spaces are required for the proposed project, based on bedroom count (TASP Table 5-3: Minimum Parking Requirements). The applicant proposes to provide 64 resident spaces, the maximum required.
Parking for residents would primarily be provided in individual tandem parking garages oriented towards the internal drive aisle. As the project is an eligible housing project under the State Density Bonus Law, Government Code Section 65915(p)(5) permits all onsite parking to be provided through tandem parking or uncovered parking.
The project also requires ten guest parking spaces, and the applicant proposes to provide nine spaces. Under Government Code Section 65915(p)(1) and MMC Section XI-10-54.15(F)(5), the applicant may request reduced parking standards for the entire development. The reduced parking standards are inclusive of guest parking and handicapped parking and may be tandem or uncovered. The nine guest spaces will be provided as follows:
• Seven (7) along the private driveway;
• One (1) ADA guest spot along the private driveway; and • One (1) electric vehicle charging spot along the private driveway.
To maintain a consistent streetscape along Tarob Court, the project will be required to install decorative concrete paving to identify all on-street parking spaces.
Table 7 demonstrates the project's compliance with the parking standards for the R3-TOD Zoning District:
613
Table 7: Project Compliance with Parking
Bicycle Parking – For residential uses within the TASP, one space of long-term bicycle parking per every four housing units is required, exempting units with a private garage. As the project has 32 private garages, no long-term bicycle parking spaces are required.
For guests, the TASP requires short-term bicycle parking spaces equivalent to five percent (5%) of the total automobile spaces required. This equates to three (3) short-term bicycle spaces for guests, and the project will provide ten bicycle spaces in compliance with the requirement.
Traffic and Access
Access to the project site is provided by a driveway located at the northern corner off Tarob Court and at the southern corner off Lundy Place. The driveways provide access to an internal twentysix (26)-foot access drive lane and fire lane, which includes a fire engine/garbage truck remote control gate along the southern corner of the site. There are 32 private residential garages along the central drive aisle. Nine guest parking spaces will be located along the access drive lane, including one accessible parking space and one electric vehicle parking space. All traffic and access data has been reviewed by Transportation and Fire and is compliant with all applicable requirements.
Floodplain Management
The project site is located in Flood Zone AO. The applicant will place engineered fill across the site, raising the grade by approximately 4.5 feet to ensure that the project complies with the City of Milpitas Floodplain Ordinance (MMC Section XI-15-4.3(a)(4)). This will allow the City’s Floodplain Administrator to determine that the project will not adversely affect the carrying capacity of areas where base flood elevations have been determined but a floodway has not been designated.

development when combined with all other existing and anticipated development will increase the water surface elevation of the base flood more than one foot at any point.) Grading
Development of the proposed project would result in the demolition of all existing structures and pavements. Less than 1,000 cubic yards of cut and fill would be brought to the site to raise the elevation out of the floodplain.
Utilities
The project site is located in an urban area and is currently served by existing utilities, including water, sanitary sewer, storm drainage, electricity, and telecommunications infrastructure. The majority of existing utilities within the boundary of the project site would be removed and replaced.
Water – The proposed project includes the removal of all existing utilities. New 8-inch water lines within the project site will connect to existing service connections and the existing 12-inch main located within Tarob Court.
Wastewater – The San José/Santa Clara Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP) provides wastewater treatment for Milpitas. The City of Milpitas maintains existing sanitary sewer lines within the vicinity of the site, including an 8-inch line on Tarob Court. The proposed project includes the installation of a new on-site 8-inch wastewater line that will connect to the City’s existing line.
Stormwater – Bioretention areas will be incorporated into the landscape design to provide appropriate vegetation and water quality treatment for impervious surfaces including roofs, driveways, streets, and sidewalks.
The project will connect to the existing 12-inch municipal storm drain located at the northwest corner of the project site. The project includes pervious pavers throughout the interior access driveway. Upon construction of the improvements, approximately 0.81 acres (66 percent) of the project site would be covered by impervious surfaces and approximately 0.41 acres (34 percent) would be covered by landscaped areas including lawns, shrubs, and trees. All walkways within these areas would be sloped to drain onto the surrounding landscaping for bio-retention and treatment.
Electricity and Natural Gas – Electricity and natural gas services to the site are provided by Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E). Existing underground utility connections and gas mains provide electricity and gas to the project site. The project includes removal of all existing utilities and requires the construction of new electricity and gas connections to serve the project. New electrical lines (servicing the project only) will be installed underground and connect to the existing joint trench box in the northern corner of the project site.
Climate Action Plan
The City of Milpitas Climate Action Plan (CAP) was adopted in 2013 and includes Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reduction goals, policies and actions for new and existing development projects. 615
One of the key aims of the CAP is to encourage transit-oriented development as a means to reduce GHG emissions. The project would be in compliance with this goal, as it would locate future residents within walking distance of public transportation, jobs, restaurants, and services. To reduce energy usage, the project would incorporate green building measures in compliance with CALGreen standard building measures for residential buildings and Title 24 requirements.
Additionally, the project includes a total of 0.46 acres of common open space and landscaped areas, following the City’s standards, which would offset GHG emissions.
Implementation of the TASP includes policies that address transportation and land use that are consistent with the CAP. TASP Policy 3.21 would provide continuous pedestrian sidewalks and safe bike routes throughout this portion of the TASP planning area; Policy 3.22 encourages walking and biking routes to schools and major destinations; and Policy 3.33 requires new development within the TASP Area to provide incentives for alternative modes of transit, which support the CAP.
Implementation of the proposed project would not substantially increase population, vehicle trips, or vehicle miles traveled. Further, the project adheres to the building guidelines of the TASP with only modest deviations that would not impair achievement of CAP goals and promotes reductions in GHG emissions through high-density development in close proximity to transit. As such, the project is in conformance with the City’s Climate Action Plan.
Development Fees
The project is subject to the following fees, payable at the time of building permit issuance:
TASP Impact Fee
The TASP/MMSP Impact fee is currently set at $44,009/unit for residential uses for Fiscal Year 2021-2022. Based on approval for development of 32 units, the estimated Transit Area Specific Plan Development Impact Fee for this project is $1,411,168 ($44,009/unit x 32 units). This fee is automatically adjusted each fiscal year in conjunction with the City’s annual budget process. The proposed project will pay the fee at the issuance of building permits.
Parkland Impact Fee
TASP requires all new development to provide 3.5 acres of parkland for every 1,000 persons or payment of fees-in-lieu. Per the parkland section, above, the project has satisfied this requirement.
See Table 6 for more information.
Public Art Fee
The Project will comply with the City’s Public Art Requirements for Private Development, as set forth in Milpitas Municipal Code Section XI-10-14. This fee is currently set at one-half of one percent of building development costs. The proposed project will pay the fee based on the construction valuation at the building permit issuance. 616
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL
A finding is a statement of fact relating to the information that the Planning Commission has considered in making a decision. Findings shall identify the rationale behind the decision to take a certain action.
Vesting Tentative Map
To approve the Major Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map, the following findings must be made pursuant to Milpitas Municipal Code Section XI-1-20.01:
1. The tentative subdivision map is consistent with the General Plan.
The General Plan designation for the project site is Milpitas Metro Specific Plan (MMSP), but since City Council has not formally adopted the MMSP, the TASP development standards currently apply. The intent of both the MMSP and TASP standards is to facilitate development of higher intensity, mixed-use neighborhoods near the Milpitas Transit Center and to encourage walking, biking, and the use of alternative modes of transportation.
The TASP designates this project site as High Density, Transit Oriented Residential (HDTOR). The intent of this designation is to provide high-density housing at a density range of 21-40 dwelling units/acre. As this project proposes 25 dwelling units/acre, it is consistent with both the intended land use of the General Plan and the relevant density requirement. The project site was not identified as a potential site for yielding affordable housing units in the City’s Housing Element, as the site was zoned for industrial uses prior to October 2017. Therefore, there is no net loss of affordable housing units.
Further, the tentative subdivision map is consistent with the Milpitas General Plan, as demonstrated and outlined in Table 2.
2. None of the conditions identified in California Government Code Section 66474 exist, to wit:
A. That the proposed map is not consistent with applicable general and specific plans as specified in Government Code Section 65451.
As set forth in Finding 1 above, the map proposes the development of the site into 32 residential condominium units at a density of 25 dwelling units/acre. The General Plan and Milpitas Metro Specific Plan/Transit Area Specific Plan land use designation applicable to the site (Milpitas Metro Specific Plan (MMSP), and High Density, Transit-Oriented Residential (HD-TOR)) permits residential development at densities of 21 to 40 dwelling units/acre. The map is therefore consistent with the General Plan and Milpitas Metro Specific Plan/Transit Area Specific Plan.
B. That the design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is not consistent with applicable general and specific plans.
617
The design and improvement of the subdivision is consistent with the density range of 21-40 dwelling units per acre as permitted by the General Plan and Milpitas Metro Specific Plan/Transit Area Specific Plan. The proposed density is 25 dwelling units per acre. The proposed project is also consistent with the Milpitas Metro Specific Plan/Transit Area Specific Plan development standards, including height (maximum of 50 feet proposed, where 75 feet is the maximum allowed), number of vehicular parking spaces (64 vehicular spaces proposed, where a maximum of 64 is allowed), bicycle parking (10 spaces proposed, where 3 are required), building orientation (proposed buildings will face streets, where requirement provides building must face streets).
C. That the site is not physically suitable for the type of development.
The site is surrounded by property designated for high density, transit-oriented residential development under the City’s General Plan and zoned for this type of development under the Milpitas Metro Specific Plan/Transit Area Specific Plan. In addition, this site is suitable for the higher density development based on the location, physical attributes, and proposed infrastructure improvements.
D. That the site is not physically suitable for the proposed density of development.
The City Council, through adoption of Resolution No. 8702, has determined that the site is physically suitable for development at the proposed density of 25 dwelling units per acre, insomuch as it has amended the applicable general plan land use designation to High Density, Transit Oriented Residential (HD-TOR), and subsequently Milpitas Metro Specific Plan (MMSP), which currently allows densities of 21-40 dwelling units per acre. The site is also flat and has direct access to adjacent streets (Tarob Court and Lundy Place) to accommodate the proposed density of the development.
E. That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat.
The project, including the subdivision and its associated improvements, has been subjected to environmental review under CEQA through the preparation of an Environmental Assessment/Categorical Exemption/Peer Review Memos (Exhibit 2 to Exhibit A of Attachment A). The memo did not find that the project would be likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The project is also located in an urbanized area and previously developed as an industrial building, and therefore, will not cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat.
F. That the design of the subdivision or type of improvements is likely to cause serious public health problems.
618
The project, including the subdivision and its associated improvements, has been subjected to environmental review under CEQA through the preparation of an Environmental Assessment/Categorical Exemption/Peer Review Memorandums (Exhibit 2 to Exhibit A of Attachment A). The memorandums did not find that the design of the subdivision or type of improvements is likely to cause serious public health problems.
G. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision.
Upon review of the subdivision map, it has been determined that the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with any easements acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision. The subdivision does not involve the vacation of easements, however, the existing right-of-way will be abandoned and portions of the area will be retained for a Public Services Utility Easement (PSUE).
Site Development Permit
To approve the Site Development Permit, the following findings must be made pursuant to Milpitas Municipal Code Section XI-10-57.03(F):
1. The layout of the site and design of the proposed buildings, structures and landscaping are compatible and aesthetically harmonious with adjacent and surrounding development.
The project’s site design is consistent with the MMSP/TASP development standards for the Trade Zone/Montague Sub-district. The project consists of 32 condominium units and associated site amenities on a 1.22-acre site. The building’s contemporary architectural design visually relates to and is compatible with the adjacent townhome projects along Tarob Court. The project also features exterior horizontal blue and green-hued siding. The project has a strong sense of identity, achieving compatibility and aesthetic harmony with surrounding developments.
2. The project is consistent with the Milpitas Zoning Ordinance.
The project site is zoned R3 (Multiple-Family, High Density Residential with a Transit Oriented Development (-TOD) Overlay). Residential uses are permitted in the zoning district. As demonstrated in Tables 4, 5 and 7, the project substantially conforms to the zoning district and meets the intent for this type of project envisioned in this area.
The project also conforms to MMC Section XI-10-54.015 (Density Bonus for Affordable Housing Developments) and XI-10-57.05 (Density Bonus Permits). As the project is an eligible housing project under the State Density Bonus Law, Government Code Section 65915(p)(5), the project is entitled to reduced parking requirements. The requested deviations will support the development of affordable housing units on a site where it would not otherwise be possible through a strict application of the specified standard. 619
3. The project is consistent with the Milpitas General Plan.
See General Plan consistency discussion set out above in support of issuing the Vesting Tentative Map.
4. The project is consistent with the Transit Area Specific Plan.
The proposed project is consistent with the applicable policies and design guidelines of the TASP/MMSP, as demonstrated and outlined in Tables 3 and 5. As the project is an eligible housing project under the State Density Bonus Law, Government Code Section 65915(p)(5), the project is entitled to reduced parking requirements. The requested deviations will support the development of affordable housing units on a site where it would not otherwise be possible through a strict application of the specified standard.
Conditional Use Permit
To approve the Conditional Use Permit, the following findings must be made pursuant to Milpitas Municipal Code Section XI-10-57.04(F):
1. The proposed use, at the proposed location, will not be detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity nor to the public health, safety and general welfare.
The project will not be detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity, nor to the health, safety or general welfare. The project is consistent with other high density residential projects within the TASP. The condominium project creates housing opportunities and increases the diversity of housing types in the TASP area.
2. The project is consistent with the Milpitas Zoning Ordinance.
The project is consistent with the Zoning Ordinance, as the condominium use is conditionally permitted per MMC Table XI-10-4.02-1. The project substantially conforms to most of the development standards set forth by the Zoning Ordinance, as discussed in the Zoning Ordinance consistency discussion set out in support of issuing a Site Development Permit.
Moreover, the project also conforms to MMC Section XI-10-54.015 (Density Bonus for Affordable Housing Developments) and XI-10-57.05 (Density Bonus Permits). As the project is an eligible housing project under the State Density Bonus Law, Government Code Section 65915(p)(5), the project is entitled to reduced parking requirements. The requested deviations will support the development of affordable housing units on a site where it would not otherwise be possible through a strict application of the specified standard.
3. The project is consistent with the Milpitas General Plan.
See General Plan consistency discussion set out above in support of issuing the Vesting Tentative Map.
620
4. The project is consistent with the Transit Area Specific Plan.
See Transit Area Specific Plan consistency set out above in support of issuing the Site Development Permit.
Density Bonus (Section XI-10.54.15(D)(F))
1. Determination of Maximum Allowable Densities. The maximum allowable base density specified in the General Plan, including any other permitted increases to density.
Based on 15% affordability, with 5 units (15%) reserved for moderate-income households, the proposed project is eligible for a 5% density bonus. The maximum allowable density in the R3- TOD Zoning District is 40 du/ac, which would yield 42 units on the subject 1.22-acre parcel.
The proposed 32-unit development is less than the allowable 5% density bonus. Under the State Density Bonus Law, the applicant is entitled to receive the 5% density bonus as a matter of right.
2. Unit Type and Location. All affordable units shall be reasonably dispersed throughout the project, shall contain on average the same number of bedrooms as the non-affordable units in the project, and shall be comparable with the non-affordable units in terms of appearance, materials and finished quality. The Planning Commission may recommend to the City Council and/or Housing Authority modifying the requirements as to unit size or type, if it is found that such a modification would better serve the affordable housing need of Milpitas.
This standard is satisfied, as the Project proposes five units to be reserved for moderate-income households. These five three-bedroom units will be dispersed throughout the two multi-family buildings.
3. Agreement. Prior to final building inspection and occupancy for a project containing affordable units, the applicant shall execute and record at the Santa Clara County Recorder's Office the City's Agreement Imposing Restrictions on Real Property, which Agreement shall explain the affordability requirements. The agreement shall be approved by the Milpitas City Attorney prior to recordation.
The Project will be conditioned to execute and record at the Santa Clara County Recorder’s Office the City’s Agreement Imposing Restrictions on Real Property.
4. Retaining Affordability. A developer shall agree to, and the City shall insure continued affordability of, all lower- or very low-income density bonus units for thirty (30) years or a longer period of time, if required by the construction or mortgage financing assistance program, mortgage insurance program, or rental subsidy program. If the City does not grant at least one (1) additional concession or incentive, in addition to a density bonus as specified in Section XI10-54.15(E), Density Bonus Conditions, of this Chapter, the developer shall agree to, and the City shall ensure continued affordability for a minimum of ten (10) years of all lower or very low-income housing units receiving a density bonus.
621
The designated affordable units will be required to remain for a minimum of 50 years as stated in the Conditions of Approval and will require a Regulatory Agreement to be recorded over the Project site.
5. Affordable Rents. Those units targeted for lower-income households, as defined in Section 50079.5 of the Health and Safety Code shall be affordable at a rent that does not exceed thirty (30%) of sixty (60%) percent of the Santa Clara County median income. Those units targeted for very low-income households, as defined in Section 50105 of the Health and Safety Code, shall be affordable at a rent that does not exceed thirty (30%) of fifty (50%) percent of County median income.
This finding does not apply to the project. The project provides five for-sale units, or fifteen percent of the 32 units, to moderate-income households.
6. Relation to State. Density bonus requirements not specified in these regulations shall be governed by the State Density Bonus Law, Government Code Section 65915, et seq.
Any density bonus requirements not specified in the City’s Municipal Code shall be governed by the State Density Bonus Law, Government Code Section 65915, et seq.
Waivers and Modifications of Development Standards
Pursuant to MMC Section XI-10.54.15(F)(6), the City must grant waivers of development standards if the applicant demonstrates the waiver is necessary to make the affordable housing units economically feasible and can only deny such waiver request if the City makes the findings specified in MMC Section XI-10.54.15(F)(3):
a. The concession is not required in order to provide for affordable housing costs as defined in State Health and Safety Section 50052.2 or for rents for the affordable units pursuant to Section XI-10-54.15(D)(5), Standards, of Chapter 10 (Zoning) of the Milpitas Municipal Code.
b. The concession would have a specific adverse impact as defined in State Government Code Section 65589.5(d) (2) upon the public health and safety or the physical environment, or on any real property that is listed in the California Register of Historical Resources and for which there is no feasible method to satisfactorily mitigate or avoid the specific adverse impact without rendering the development unaffordable to low- and moderate-income households.
If findings cannot be made, the proposed waivers must be granted, based on the requirements of the City’s Municipal Code and California Government Code Sections 65915.
The proposed deviations for this project (one less guest parking space and tandem parking in all residential garages) would result in actual and identifiable cost savings, and these savings are necessary to provide the level of affordability proposed. Further, none of the deviations would result in any specific, adverse impacts to public health, safety, the physical environment, or historical resources, so the City has no justification to deny the requested waivers. 622
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This project is located within the area evaluated as part of the Transit Area Specific Plan Environmental Impact Report (TASP-EIR) (SCH#2006032091) certified by the City Council on June 3, 2008. An earlier environmental assessment (EA19-0002) for a higher density version of the project was conducted by LSA, on behalf of the City, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (CEQA), as amended, and state and local guidelines implementing CEQA. The environmental assessment conducted by LSA concluded that none of the circumstances necessitating preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR are associated with the Project.
The environmental assessment conducted by LSA also concluded that an Addendum to the TASP EIR was the appropriate document to address these modifications rather than a subsequent or supplemental EIR. The Addendum fully addressed all potential impacts associated with this project, and no material changes have been made to the project that would alter the conclusions of the Addendum. The analysis contained in the Environmental Checklist confirmed that the modified project was within the scope of the TASP-EIR and would have no new or more severe significant effects and no new mitigation measures were required.
As a part of this project application, the applicant submitted a peer reviewed memorandum, dated April 28, 2021, conducted by First Carbon Solutions. The memorandum confirms that the proposed project is still within the scope of the TASP EIR and will have no new significant or more severe impacts beyond those identified in the 2019 Environmental Checklist and the TASP EIR.
The City conducted an environmental assessment (in the form of a memorandum, dated August 4, 2021) for the proposed project. LSA prepared a peer review memorandum on behalf of the City.
The memorandum found that the Consistency Analysis generally meets the requirements of CEQA and employs sound methods and analysis to develop its conclusions. The proposed project is still within the scope of the TASP FEIR and the subsequently prepared Categorical Exemptions prepared for a previous version of the project in 2019 and would not have any new significant or more severe environmental impacts beyond those that have been previously identified. Both memorandums acknowledging the entitlements and consistency with CEQA are attached as Exhibits 2 and 3 to Exhibit A of the resolution.
As a separate and independent basis, the project is exempt from further CEQA review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15183, which applies to projects which are consistent with the development density established by existing zoning, community plan, or general plan policies for which an EIR was certified shall not require additional environmental review, except as might be necessary to examine whether there are project-specific significant effects which are peculiar to the project or its site. As a separate and independent basis, the project is also exempt from further CEQA review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15182, because the project is a residential project that is generally consistent with a Specific Plan. Lastly, the project is also exempt from further environmental review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15168, as the project is within the scope of the TASP program EIR. Moreover, the project complies with the City’s existing zoning, specific plan, community plan, and general plan. Therefore, no further environmental review is required.
623

Dear Ms. Van Hua:
The beauty of a city is highly influenced by the beauty of its buildings.
Along Montague Expressway, I find that the colors of the new buildings run the gamut from dreary / garish to attractive / cheerful. We should ask ourselves whether the proposed color scheme for a project is one that we would be happy to come home to.
In my view, the planned color scheme for this project is unattractive, especially the “Dried Thyme” dull green.
I recommend colors that are cheerful, but not garish---light pastel yellows, beiges, blues, and pinks, for example. I’m not fond of the “Needlepoint Navy” either, but maybe an alternating combination of a medium blue and a light pastel blue would provide visual interest and pleasing contrast.
Please acknowledge receipt of this input. Thank you.

CITY OF MILPITAS
AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: Milpitas Affordable Housing Ordinance Update Category: Community Development
Meeting Date: 1/18/2022
Staff Contact: Sharon Goei, Building Safety and Housing Director, 408-586-3260 Recommendation: Following the reading of the title by the City Attorney, move to waive the first reading beyond the title and introduce Ordinance No. 297.1 amending Milpitas Municipal Code Title XII, Chapter 1 (Affordable Housing Ordinance).
Executive Summary:
In June 2018, the City Council adopted the current Affordable Housing Ordinance. In 2021, the City Council directed staff to find ways to ensure that residential developers would build more affordable units on-site, rather than paying in-lieu fees.
In this Affordable Housing Ordinance update, proposed amendments still provide developers with alternatives to building affordable units on-site because staff and legal counsel believe that providing alternative means of compliance is needed in order to comply with existing state law. However, staff has proposed substantial changes to the process for granting exceptions to building affordable units on-site for ownership housing, which include strengthening the City Council’s required findings before allowing alternative means of compliance for ownership housing and incentivizing developers to build affordable units on-site.
For rental residential development, the proposed changes give developers the option to either build affordable rental units on-site or utilize any of the alternatives listed in the ordinance under certain conditions. While rental development would have a more flexible standard for compliance than ownership development, this flexibility is to ensure consistency and compliance with existing state law governing inclusionary housing as set forth in the Government Code.
Staff has also proposed additional changes to the Affordable Housing Ordinance relating to fractional units, design and distribution of affordable units, clarification of accessory dwelling units, allowing mixed tenure compliance, removing credit transfer option, extending ownership unit affordability from 45 to 55 years, broadening the criteria for preferences, among others. These proposed changes are for the most part consistent with the existing ordinance and are primarily intended to add clarity and consistency to the ordinance.
Community and stakeholder feedback on the proposed ordinance was overall positive and focused on having flexibility and a range of alternatives to meet the requirements of the Affordable Housing Ordinance.
Staff recommends that Council move forward with the steps toward adopting the proposed ordinance amendments.
Background:
On June 19, 2018, the City Council adopted Affordable Housing Ordinance No. 297, which applies to any land use entitlement application not deemed complete by July 20, 2018. The purpose of this ordinance is to, “(a) Enhance the public welfare and assure that further housing development contributes to the attainment of the 663
City's housing goals by increasing the production of residential units affordable by households of very low, low and moderate income, and (b) Assure that the limited remaining developable land in the City's planning area is utilized in a manner consistent with the City's housing policies and needs.” Under the Affordable Housing Ordinance, new residential development projects with 10 or more units must include 15% of very-low or low-income units for rental development and 15% of very-low, low, or moderateincome units for ownership development. These units must remain affordable for a minimum of 45 to 55 years.
The ordinance allows several alternatives to building the required affordable housing on-site, including payment of in-lieu fees, building affordable housing off-site, dedicating land for affordable housing, and using credit transfers when a developer builds more affordable units than required.
On March 5, 2019, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 8852, which approved the affordable housing fee schedule for a residential in-lieu fee and a non-residential impact fee. The Resolution became effective on July 1, 2019. The affordable housing fee level is adjusted July every year for inflation using the Engineering News Record Building Cost Index. If granted an exception to pay in-lieu fees, a developer must pay the Affordable Housing Ordinance in-lieu fees prior to receiving a building permit.
On December 15, 2020, the City Council directed staff to explore changes to the in-lieu fee provisions in the ordinance. The City Council was interested in finding ways to ensure that developers would build more affordable units on-site, rather than paying in-lieu fees. Currently, the City needs to gather fee revenue for multiple years before it can support a new affordable housing project. On January 5, 2021, staff provided an information memorandum on the Affordable Housing Ordinance in-lieu fee options to the City Council. At the March 16, 2021 City Council meeting, Council directed staff to proceed with work on this item.
Analysis:
In alignment with Council direction, staff is proposing changes to the Affordable Housing Ordinance to encourage more on-site affordable housing production. Staff is also proposing changes to add clarity and consistency throughout the ordinance.
Staff has compiled a comprehensive summary of proposed changes to the Affordable Housing Ordinance along with the reason for the proposed changes. Please refer to Attachment 1 for the summary.
Key Proposed Changes to Milpitas Municipal Code Title XII (Housing), Chapter 1 (Affordable Housing Ordinance)
This section describes and highlights key proposed changes to the Affordable Housing Ordinance. Section 2: Definitions
Eight definitions are proposed to be added or modified to provide clarity. The proposed changes are intended to make the definitions more explicit and to remove ambiguity. The changes are staying consistent with the current ordinance.
Section 3.00: 15 percent affordability requirement
Sometimes the 15% calculation of required affordable housing results in a fraction. The current ordinance provides that in-lieu fees are paid for all fractional units and there is no rounding. In Section 3.00, the proposed changes state that if the 15% calculation results in a fractional unit that is less than 0.5, the developer may pay an in-lieu fee for that fractional unit. If the 15% calculation results in a fractional unit that is equal to or greater than 0.5, the requirement is rounded up to the next whole number, resulting in one more unit.
Another proposed change in Section 3.00 adds language to clarify that accessory dwelling units shall not be included in the calculation of the total number of units subject to the on-site 15% inclusionary requirement. This is in concert with the proposed change in Section 2 that clarifies that accessory dwelling units cannot be used to meet inclusionary requirements.
Section 3.02: Conditions of approval
664
The proposed changes clarify that the ordinance applies to mixed-use projects. A list of data and information that needs to be submitted is also delineated in order to clarify the documents that must be provided for staff to review the project.
Section 3.03: Concurrent construction of affordable units Proposed language is added to explain how construction of affordable units must be carried out for phased developments and to further clarify that affordable units must be constructed in advance of, or concurrently with, market rate units within each phase.
Section 3.04: Design and distribution of affordable units More specific language is added on how the design and distribution of affordable units should be ensured and to clarify how the quality of affordable units must be reasonably consistent with the market rate units. o Section 4: Exceptions to on-site development of 15% affordable units Section 4A: Ownership projects
For ownership projects, substantial changes are proposed to the process for granting exceptions to building affordable units on-site. The changes encourage building affordable ownership units on-site by providing more stringent standards for ownership projects to use alternative means of compliance such as in-lieu fees, off-site units, or land dedication.
In the proposed ordinance, a developer must construct on-site affordable ownership units unless the City Council makes findings that allowing the developer to use one of the listed alternatives will
1. further the City’s low and moderate income housing goals; and
2. either (i) result in a greater amount of affordable housing or deeper affordability by meeting at least two of four listed criteria in the ordinance; or (ii) provide other community benefits that exceed the benefit of constructing on-site affordable units.
Consistent with Council direction to incentivize on-site affordable housing construction, the proposed ordinance requires that for an ownership project to not construct affordable units on-site and to use one of the alternative means of compliance, the City Council must make the above findings. In other words, if a developer intends to use one of the alternatives for an ownership project, the developer would need to provide a greater contribution to affordable housing or other greater community benefit, as compared to building the units on-site.
From a legal perspective, it is recommended that the City retain alternatives for ownership projects as part of the ordinance, rather than requiring all affordable units on-site. The key court case that upheld cities’ authority to require inclusionary housing is the California Supreme Court case of California Building Industry Association v. City of San Jose (2009). In that case, the California Supreme Court found that a city could require the development of affordable housing as part of a market rate development, but also indicated that it was important to provide a menu of alternatives to developers to provide flexibility in the event that on-site development is infeasible. The court did indicate that the alternatives could require a larger contribution to affordable housing in order to incentivize on-site construction. Therefore, in the proposed ordinance, the City can require the additional findings outlined above before allowing developers to use an alternative in ownership projects.
In alignment with Council direction, the proposed ordinance clarifies and strengthens the findings required for City Council to approve exceptions to building affordable units on-site, thereby encouraging more on-site affordable housing construction. This sets a higher standard that must be met in order for developers to use any of the alternatives. The proposed ordinance gives the City Council more control in determining when and if to accept ownership development proposals that do not include on-site affordable housing units. Section 4B: Rental projects
The proposed changes clarify that the City may allow an exception to the requirement to construct on-site affordable units for a residential rental project if requested by the applicant, provided that applicant shall be required to contribute to the City’s affordable housing needs through one of the alternative means of compliance (i.e., paying in-lieu fees, constructing units off-site, or making a land dedication). 665
In other words, the proposed ordinance allows rental project developers to either build affordable units on-site, or satisfy their obligations through utilizing any of the alternative means of compliance listed in the ordinance.
Therefore, for rental projects, the proposed ordinance provides a more flexible standard than ownership projects. This flexibility is provided for rental development to ensure compliance with existing state law governing inclusionary housing as set forth in the Government Code. The legal background is described below.
In 2009, in a California Court of Appeals decision in the case of Palmer/Sixth Street Properties v. City of Los Angeles, the court held that a city inclusionary requirement to include affordable housing (or pay a fee in lieu of doing so) violated the Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act. As a result of the Palmer decision, cities could not require developers to construct on-site affordable housing as part of a private development until 2018, when AB 1505 was enacted. Intended to allow for inclusionary rental housing, AB 1505 amended Government Code Section 65850 to authorize cities to adopt inclusionary housing ordinances for residential rental projects and indicated that any ordinance must include alternative means of compliance, such as payment of an in-lieu fee, land dedication, off-site construction, or the like.
In light of the current state law and the explicit statutory requirement from AB 1505 to provide alternatives for residential rental development, the proposed ordinance provides alternatives for rental projects in order to ensure compliance with AB 1505. The proposed ordinance allows developers to utilize any of the listed alternative means of compliance. Developers will still be incentivized to build on-site units based on potential density bonus benefits (waivers, incentives, and increased density).
For policy discussion, staff has evaluated a different set of options for rental projects to encourage on-site affordable housing construction while providing flexibility for developers. This set of options is as follows:
(A) Developer may construct 50% of required units on-site, and pay 50% of requirement in-lieu fees without City Council findings;
(B) Developer may pay 100% in in-lieu fees if the City Council makes the same findings required for ownership alternatives (i.e., fees will further the City’s low and moderate income housing goals, and result in a greater amount of affordable housing or deeper affordability or will provide other community benefits that are greater than constructing on-site units); (C) Developer may meet the requirement through land dedication or off-site construction, provided that the standards in the Affordable Housing Ordinance are met.
This approach still provides developers with alternatives to on-site construction, but limits a developer’s ability to meet the full requirement through in-lieu fee payment. This approach still likely complies with existing state law governing inclusionary housing ordinances, but is not as straightforward as the proposed language. Section 4.00: Payment of fees in lieu of creation of affordable units Proposed language is added to clarify that calculation of in-lieu fees must be based on the total gross square footage of all dwelling units developed as part of the project, including any accessory dwelling units. Section 4.01: Off-site projects
Proposed language is added to clarify that off-site projects must be located within the City of Milpitas. New language is also proposed that would allow developers flexibility to build off-site affordable units with a different tenure from the market rate units. The proposed change would require more square footage of affordable units off-site at an equivalent or lower income category. These proposed changes provide flexibility so developers can creatively develop more market rate and affordable housing while encouraging on-site construction. Section 4.02: Land dedication
Proposed language is added to clarify that dedicated land must be located within City limits and be zoned and usable for the required amount of housing. Dedicating non-residentially zoned land is unacceptable, as it would require the conversion of employment lands.
Sections 4.03, 4.04, and 7: Credit transfers
Under the existing ordinance, upon request of the applicant, the City Council may permit an applicant to apply for affordable unit credits for units constructed in excess of the number required in one project and use those 666
credits to satisfy the requirements for another project in the City. The proposed changes delete credit transfers as an alternative means of compliance. To date, this alternative has not been used and it would be very staff intensive to administer.
Sections 6.00 and 6.02: Ownership affordability term
The proposed updates change the affordability covenant for ownership units from 45 to 55 years to be consistent with rental unit affordability and to gain a longer-term affordability. This change would apply 55 years to all affordable units created under the Affordable Housing Ordinance. Section 6.03: Selection criteria
The current ordinance states that the City shall endeavor to make housing available for Milpitas residents and employees. Proposed language is added to broaden the criteria for preferences under the ordinance to add displaced former Milpitas residents and households with children enrolled in the Milpitas Unified School District that have inadequate housing as defined under the federal McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act.
Language is also added to clarify the need to conform with state and federal fair housing laws.
Stakeholder and Community Outreach
On December 8, 2021, the City posted the proposed amendments to the Affordable Housing Ordinance on the City’s website. The packet of materials included a cover letter to the community and developers, policy discussion on rental inclusionary alternatives, summary of proposed changes, redlined version of proposed changes, and clean version of proposed changes.
On December 16, 2021, the City hosted a Community Development Roundtable to gather input from developers and real estate professionals on the proposed changes to the Affordable Housing Ordinance.
Eleven stakeholders attended this meeting. The Building Industry Association commented that they do not want policy changes that would discourage market rate projects or discourage development overall, and encouraged the City to adopt policy changes that help achieve the City’s upcoming Regional Housing Needs Allocation goals. Questions were addressed to clarify how accessory dwelling are considered in the ordinance.
Questions were also addressed regarding how current projects meet the existing ordinance. Developers commented that flexibility is important and the ability to pay in-lieu fees where Council deems appropriate is important, and that the City can utilize the fees collected to support potential projects.
On December 17, 2021, the City hosted a virtual community meeting to gather input from the broader community and residents on the proposed changes to the Affordable Housing Ordinance. Nine stakeholders attended this meeting, including SV@Home, residents, Commissioners, and Homelessness Task Force members. Attendees were very engaged with staff in active discussions and question and answer session.
Comments were overall positive with discussions around income levels, providing a range of options, balancing between fee level versus building units, different policy for ownership and rental projects, among others. The robust discussions at this meeting also helped to inform and educate about some details of the Affordable Housing Ordinance. Please refer to Attachment 4 for SV@Home’s comment letter.
Residential Development
Since the Affordable Housing Ordinance took effect, six residential development projects subject to the Affordable Housing Ordinance have received approval from the City. The six residential projects consist of three rental and three ownership developments. Five of these six projects are building affordable units on-site and not using any alternative means of compliance. The sixth project, which is an ownership development, is building almost all of the required affordable units on-site but is paying a fee in-lieu of building one unit and a fractional unit. Therefore, all six residential projects developed since the Affordable Housing Ordinance was adopted in 2018 are meeting almost all of their inclusionary housing obligations by incorporating affordable units on-site within the development.
With the proposed amendments to the ordinance, the City will further encourage more on-site affordable housing construction.
Action Steps
667
To achieve Council intent to encourage more on-site affordable housing production, and to add clarity and consistency to the Affordable Housing Ordinance, staff recommends that Council move forward with the first reading and introduce the ordinance on January 18, 2022.
The second reading and ordinance adoption is scheduled to take place at the February 1, 2022 Council meeting.
Policy Alternative:
Alternative: Do not amend the Affordable Housing Ordinance.
Pros: The current Affordable Housing Ordinance would remain without additional staff time.
Cons: The current Affordable Housing Ordinance would not have the benefit of the amendments for added clarify and consistency and encouraging on-site affordable housing construction.
Reason not recommended: The proposed amendments to the Affordable Housing Ordinance would achieve Council intent to encourage on-site affordable units and add clarity and consistency throughout the ordinance.
Fiscal Impact:
Many of the proposed changes would facilitate administration of the Affordable Housing Ordinance and save staff time. Limiting developers’ ability to pay in-lieu fees may slow the growth of the City’s Affordable Housing Fund, but it may result in more on-site affordable units. These proposed changes have no immediate fiscal impact.
California Environmental Quality Act:
The introduction and adoption of this Ordinance is (1) not a Project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and is therefore exempt, pursuant to Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 15378(b)(4)4), that adoption of this ordinance is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it constitutes a governmental fiscal activity that does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment; (2) statutorily exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15267 (Financial Assistance to Low or Moderate Income Housing; (3) not intended to apply to specifically identified affordable housing projects and as such it is speculative to evaluate any such future project now and, moreover, they will be subject to appropriate environmental review at such time as approvals for those affordable housing project are considered; and/or (4) not intended to, nor does it, provide CEQA clearance for future development-related projects by mere establishment or payment of the fees. Each of the foregoing provides a separate and independent basis for CEQA compliance and, when viewed collectively, provides an overall basis for CEQA compliance.
Recommendation:
Following the reading of the title by the City Attorney, move to waive the first reading beyond the title and introduce Ordinance No. 297.1 amending Milpitas Municipal Code Title XII, Chapter 1 (Affordable Housing Ordinance).

Minor numbering and text
changes have been made
throughout the document.
To update the numbering and to
maintain consistency. These minor
changes are highlighted in the
“redline” of the ordinance but are not
included in this summary table.
XII-1-2.01 Updated reference to Accessory
Dwelling Unit (ADU) definition
To match changes in the Municipal
Code.
XII-1-2.02 Added definition for “Affordable
Housing Cost”
To clarify that affordable housing
cost includes utilities cost and is
determined using official HCD
income limits.
XII-1-2.04 Updated definition for an
“Affordable Unit”
To clarify that ADUs shall not be
counted as an affordable unit to
satisfy on-site affordable housing
requirements.
XII-1-2.07 Created separate definition for
“Low Income Household”
To further clarify that “Low Income
Household” is defined the same as in
state law and that state HCD income
limits apply to this program, not
federal TCAC income limits.
XII-1-2.08 Added a definition for mixed use
development.
To clarify that the ordinance applies
to both vertical and horizontal mixed
use projects.
XII-1-2.09 Created separate definition for
“Moderate Income Household”
To further clarify that “Moderate
Income Household” is defined the
same as in state law and that state
HCD income limits apply to this
program, not federal TCAC income
limits.
XII-1-2.11 Added definition for “on-site”
development of affordable housing
To further clarify that on-site
development must be within the
boundaries of the proposed
development. Otherwise it is
considered to be off-site.
XII-1-2.16 Created separate definition for
“Very Low Income Household”
To further clarify that “Very Low
Income Household” is defined the
same as in state law and that state
HCD income limits apply to this
program, not federal TCAC income
limits.
XII-1-3.00 Sometimes 15% of the total units
results in a fraction. This change
would require developers to round
up the number of affordable units
they are required to build if the
fraction is equal to or greater than
0.5. If the fraction is less, the
developer could pay an in-lieu fee
This change reduces a developer’s
ability to pay in-lieu fees for fractional
units greater than 0.5. It could result
in 1 extra affordable unit being built
on-site per project. It also clarifies
that ADUs are not factored into the
calculation of the total number of
669
for that fraction of a unit. This
change also clarifies that ADUs
shall not be included in the
calculation of the total number of
units subject to the on-site 15%
inclusionary requirement.
units subject to the 15% on-site
inclusionary requirement.
XII-1-3.02 Added mixed-use to the
“Conditions of Approval” section
and a list of documents needed for
staff to review.
To further clarify that this ordinance
applies to mixed-use projects that
include residential and to clarify key
documents that must be provided for
staff to review.
XII-1-3.03 Added language to explain how
concurrent construction of
affordable housing units must be
carried out for phased
developments before final
discretionary permits are issued. If
extenuating circumstances exist, a
developer must provide a
schedule showing how the
affordable units will be built
expeditiously and this schedule
must be approved by the City
Manager or designee.
To further clarify that affordable units
must be constructed in advance of or
concurrently with market rate units
within each phase.
XII-1-3.04 Added more specific language on
how the design and distribution of
affordable units should be
ensured.
To further clarify how the quality of
affordable units shall be reasonably
consistent with the market rate units.
Section 4A
(Ownership)
Made substantial changes to the
process for granting exceptions to
building affordable ownership
units on-site. Added more specific
findings for Council approval.
To clarify the City Council findings
required for certain exceptions to onsite construction of affordable units and to encourage the production of
more on-site ownership units.
Section 4B
(Rental)
Added text relating to rental
projects and exceptions to the onsite requirement.
To clarify that developers of rental
projects do not need City Council
approval to utilize alternative forms of
compliance as set forth in
Subsections XII-1-4.00-XII-1-4.02.
However, staff is exploring options
for an alternative approach to
providing alternatives to development
of on-site affordable units.
XII-1-4.00 Clarified how to calculate in-lieu
fees and that ADUs are included
when calculating the gross square
footage for the in-lieu fee.
The existing ordinance does not
explain how in-lieu fees are
calculated.
XII-1-4.01 Added text clarifying that off-site
projects must be located within the
City of Milpitas.
To clarify where off-site projects can
be located.

encouraging on-site construction.
XII-1-4.02 Added text clarifying that
dedicated land must be within the
City of Milpitas and must be zoned
and usable for the required
amount of housing.
To provide specifics on what land is
acceptable for dedication under the
ordinance. Dedicating nonresidentially zoned land is
unacceptable as it would require the
conversion of employment lands.
XII 1-4.03 Removed credit transfers as a
compliance option.
To date this option has not been
used and would be very staff
intensive to administer. As an
alternative, staff has proposed
allowing mixed tenure off-site
compliance for added flexibility.
XII-1-4.04 Removed “Transfer of square foot

No longer needed as addressed in
other sections.
XII-1-6.00 Changed affordability covenant for
ownership from 45 to 55 years.
Updated the time by which

longer-term affordability. To provide
reasonable timeframe for completing
affordable housing agreement.
XII-1-6.02 Changed affordability covenant for
ownership from 45 to 55 years.
To be consistent with the rental
affordability term and to gain a
longer-term affordability. The change
would apply 55 years to all affordable
units created under this ordinance.
XII-1-6.03 Updated selection criteria to
ensure that prioritization conforms
with state and federal fair housing
laws. Added broader language
about setting aside some of the
affordable units for households
that live, are employed in, or have
been displaced from Milpitas.
To clarify the need to conform with
fair housing laws and to apply local
preferences for the affordable
housing units under the ordinance.
Section 7 Removed “Affordable Unit Credits”
section.
The credits option has not been used
and would be very staff intensive to
administer. As an alternative, staff
has proposed allowing mixed tenure
off-site compliance for added
flexibility.
Section 9 Renumbered as Section 8 and
revised Affordable Housing
Ordinance Fund to Affordable
Housing Fund.
To provide consistency with the
definition in Section 2.

RECITALS AND FINDINGS:
WHEREAS, the Bay Area is experiencing a severe housing crisis, especially in providing housing affordable to very low, low and moderate-income households; and WHEREAS, existing local, state and federal resources are insufficient to meet the City of Milpitas’ needs for affordable housing; and
WHEREAS, the City’s 2015-2023 Housing Element provides that the City will facilitate the development of new affordable housing units, and
WHEREAS, the courts have recognized that a city can impose requirements to include that new developments include a percentage of affordable housing units as a valid exercise of the city’s police power;
WHEREAS, in 2017, the State of California enacted AB 1505, codified at California Government Code §§ 65850-65850.1, which supersedes the court’s ruling in Palmer/Sixth Street Properties v. City of Los Angeles, and establishes that cities can adopt ordinances requiring that rental housing development include a percentage of units affordable to very low, low or moderate income households; and
WHEREAS, on June 19, 2018, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 297 adding Title XII, Chapter 1 to the Milpitas Municipal Code (the Affordable Housing Ordinance) to establish inclusionary affordable housing requirements and a fee program to foster the development of affordable housing projects within the City and the region; and
WHEREAS, the adoption of the Affordable Housing Ordinance has been effective in furthering the City’s affordable housing goals, and has resulted in the development of additional affordable housing units within the City; and
WHEREAS, in additional to ensuring that affordable housing units are built within the City, the City Council desires to ensure that affordable housing developed within the City is integrated with new market rate housing development and not segregated to select areas of the City; and WHEREAS, in order to ensure that affordable housing constructed pursuant to the Affordable Housing Ordinance is integrated into new market rate residential development to the greatest extent possible, the City Council directed staff to prepare an amendment to the Affordable Housing Ordinance to incentivize and ensure on-site development of affordable housing to the extent possible, and to make other clarifying amendments to the Affordable Housing Ordinance; and WHEREAS, consistent with Council direction, City staff prepared proposed amendments to the Affordable Housing Ordinance to strengthen the City Council’s required findings before allowing alternative means of compliance for ownership housing and incentivizing developers to build affordable units on-site, while still retaining alternative means of compliance with the Affordable Housing Ordinance in order to maintain flexibility and ensure that the Affordable Housing Ordinance will not serve as an impediment to residential development in the City; and WHEREAS, on December 8, 2021, City staff posted the proposed amendments to the Affordable Housing Ordinance on the City’s website along with a written summary of the proposed changes, and City staff thereafter presented the proposed amendments to the Affordable Housing Ordinance to 673
38077.01007\34698461.1

XII-1-3.03 - Concurrent construction of affordable units All affordable units in a project or phase of a project shall be constructed prior or concurrently with market-rate units, unless the City Manager or designee determines in writing that extenuating circumstances exist that make concurrent construction infeasible or impractical. In phased developments, the affordability requirement will be calculated on the basis of the whole development, but affordable units shall be developed in advance or concurrently with market rate units in each phase unless the City Manager or designee determines in writing that extenuating circumstances exist that make concurrent construction infeasible or impractical. If this occurs, a schedule must be developed by the applicant and approved by the City Manager to ensure that affordable units are built expeditiously and before final discretionary permits are issued. Each phase must include the required number of affordable units based on the number of market-rate units in that phase, and on-site affordable housing units must be developed concurrently with the market-rate units in each phase.
XII-1-3.04 - Design and distribution of affordable units Affordable units shall meet the following requirements:
1. The bedroom mix of the affordable units should be proportionate to the bedroom mix of market rate units, provided that the City may allow a different unit mix to meet other City goals as determined by the City Council.
2. The square footage of the affordable housing units must be reasonably consistent with the market rate units in the development although smaller unit sizes may be allowed by the Director or Building Safety and Housing if the developer provides adequate justification and reasons why the provision of small unit sizes would further the City’s housing goals and this Chapter.
3. All affordable units shall be reasonably comparable in terms of floor plan and base finish amenities to market rate units in the proposed development.
4. The quality of the exterior design, landscaping, and construction of the affordable units shall be consistent with the other units in the proposed development. When affordable units are built off-site they shall be of equivalent or of higher quality compared with the market rate units.
5. Affordable units shall have the same access to common entrances from the exterior as market rate units;
6. Affordable units shall have the same access to all project amenities and recreational facilities available to market rate units. Off-site projects shall have convenient access to equivalent project amenities and recreational facilities compared to the market rate units.
7. All affordable units shall be reasonably dispersed throughout the project and for residential structures higher than eight stories, the affordable units shall be evenly distributed throughout the bottom 60% of the floors or higher.
Section 4 - Exceptions to On-Site Development of 15 Percent Affordable Units Project applicants' projects shall construct 15 percent of the total number of dwelling units within any development as affordable units, except as provided pursuant to this Section. All exceptions to the requirement to construct affordable units on-site for a project with ownership units shall require City Council approval, which shall be obtained at or prior to the last discretionary approval for development of the project.
679
38077.01007\34698461.1
9 Ordinance No. 297.1
A. Ownership Projects: The City may allow an exception to the requirement to construct on-site affordable units for a residential ownership project when the applicant contributes to the City’s affordable housing needs through one of the alternatives set forth in Subsections XII-1-4.00-XII-1-4.02, provided that prior to City Council approval to the requested exception, the City Council must make the following findings:
1. The development as proposed with the exception as provided pursuant to this Section would further the City’s low and/or moderate income housing goals as contained in the Housing Element; and
2. The development with the exception either (i) will result in at least two of the following;
a. The development of a larger number of deed-restricted affordable units than would be created under the on-site requirement;
b. The development of a larger number of deed-restricted affordable bedrooms than would be created under the on-site requirement;
c. The development of a larger amount of deed restricted affordable living area than would be created under the on-site requirement;
d. The development of deed-restricted affordable units at a lower average income target as compared to the affordable units that would be created under the on-site requirement; or (ii) will provide other community benefits that exceed the benefit of constructing on-site affordable units.
B. Rental Projects: The City may allow an exception to the requirement to construct on-site affordable units for a residential rental project if requested by the applicant, provided that as a condition of such exception that applicant shall be required to contribute to the City’s affordable housing needs through one of the alternatives set forth in Subsections XII-1-4.00-XII-1-4.02.
XII-1-4.00 - Payment of fees in lieu of creation of affordable units Upon request of the applicant and subject to the requirements of this Section 4 as set forth above, the City Council may permit the applicant to pay a fee in lieu of constructing the affordable units that the applicant would otherwise be required to construct pursuant to this Chapter. In-lieu fees shall also be paid for requirements to construct fractional units of less than 0.5 units as set forth in Section XII-1-
3.00. The City shall adopt, by resolution, current affordable housing in-lieu fee levels as well as administrative guidelines necessary for the implementation of this Chapter.
Fees paid in-lieu of constructing affordable units must be paid prior to the issuance of the building permit for the project, and fees shall be deposited into the City’s Affordable Housing Ordinance Fund.
The in-lieu fee shall be calculated based on the gross square footage constructed for each new residential use, taking into account any fee credits that would be applicable based on existing building area. While accessory dwelling units are not counted towards either calculating or meeting the 15% on-site affordable housing requirement pursuant to Section XII-1-3.00, any payment of in-lieu fees must be based on the total gross square footage of all dwelling units developed as part of the project, including any accessory dwelling units.
Unless otherwise specified by resolution of the City Council or amendment to this Chapter, every July 1, or the following business day, if applicable, the City will adjust the affordable housing fees for 680
38077.01007\34698461.1
10 Ordinance No. 297.1
inflation using the Engineering News Record Building Cost Index for San Francisco. If this index ceases to exist, the Director of Building Safety and Housing shall substitute another construction cost index, which in his/her judgment is as nearly equivalent to the original index as possible.
XII-1-4.01 - Off-site projects
Upon request of the applicant, the City Council may permit an applicant to comply with the requirements of this Chapter by constructing the affordable units not physically within the development but within the City of Milpitas in lieu of constructing some or all of the affordable units within the development, with the approval of the City Council, if the City Council finds that:
1. Construction of the units off-site in lieu of constructing units on-site is consistent with the Chapter's goal of creating, preserving, maintaining, and protecting housing for very low, low and moderate income households.
2. The units to be constructed off site are consistent with Section XII-1-3.04 above.
3. It would be infeasible or impractical to construct affordable units on-site.
4. Conditions of approval for the project require that the off-site affordable units would be governed by the terms of a deed restriction and, if applicable, rental restrictions similar to that used for the on-site affordable units.
5. The conditions of approval for the project, or other security such as a cash deposit, bond, or letter of credit, are adequate to require the construction of the off-site affordable units prior or concurrently with the completion of the construction of the residential development.
Affordable units can be built off-site using a different tenure than the subject development (i.e., rental affordable units for an ownership residential project) provided that the square footage of livable space of affordable units provided off-site is greater than what would be required on-site. In this case, the above requirements shall be met and the income-category shall be equivalent to or lower than what would be required for affordable units with the same tenure. The term of the affordable housing and/or resale restrictions shall be determined by the tenure of the affordable units and shall be consistent with sections XII-1-6.00 through XII-1-6.02 of this Chapter as applicable.
XII-1-4.02 - Land dedication
Upon request of the applicant, the City Council may permit an applicant to dedicate land within the City of Milpitas to the City or a City-designated local non-profit housing developer in lieu of construction of some or all of the required affordable units, if the Council finds that:
1. Dedication of land in lieu of constructing units is consistent with the Chapter's goal of creating, preserving, maintaining, and protecting housing for very low, low and moderate income households.
2. The dedicated land is zoned and useable for its intended purpose, is free of toxic substances and contaminated soils, and is fully improved, with infrastructure, adjacent utilities, grading, and all development-impact fees paid, including development-impact fees required by the Milpitas Unified School District but excluding any affordable housing ordinance fees.
3. The proposed land dedication property includes a minimum of _0.75 acres of developable area, and is of sufficient size and value to meet the following requirements:
681
38077.01007\34698461.1
11 Ordinance No. 297.1
a. The dedication property includes land sufficient to construct the number of units that the applicant would otherwise be required to construct by Section XII-1-3.00 based on (i) the size of lots in the subdivision for which the applicant is meeting its obligation if the applicant’s project is an ownership project, or (ii) the size of the parcel needed to construct the required number of affordable units if the applicant’s project is a rental project and assuming the affordable rental units are of comparable size to the market rate units; and
b. In addition, the dedication property includes additional land the market value for which is equal to or exceeds the difference between the value of a market-rate, 1200-square foot for-sale unit and the price at which such a unit could be sold as an affordable moderate income unit (which amount shall be set forth in a resolution adopted from time to time by the City Council) times the number of on-site affordable units that would otherwise be required for the development.
XII-1-4.03 - Waiver of requirements
As part of the development application, the applicant may request and the City Council, at its discretion, may waive, wholly or partially, the requirements of this Chapter and approve alternate methods of compliance with this Chapter if the applicant demonstrates, and the City Council finds, either (1) that such alternate methods meet the purposes of this Chapter and the Council can make the findings for such alternative methods as set forth in Section 4.A of this Chapter; or (2) that there is no reasonable relationship between the impact of the proposed development and the contested requirement or that applying the requirements of this Chapter would take property in violation of the United States Constitution or California Constitution or would result in any other unconstitutional result.
Section 5 - Non-Residential Affordable Housing Impact Fee XII-1-5.01 - Applicability
Any non-residential development, applicable under the definition set forth in Section XII-1-2.05, is subject to payment of a non-residential affordable housing impact fee. The City shall adopt, by resolution, current non-residential affordable housing impact fee levels. Every July 1, or the following business day, if applicable, the City will adjust affordable housing fees for inflation annually using the Engineering News Record Building Cost Index for San Francisco. If this index ceases to exist, the Director of Building Safety and Housing shall substitute another construction cost index, which in his/her judgment is as nearly equivalent to the original index as possible.
The applicant shall pay the non-residential impact fees prior to issuance of the building permit.
Applicable fees will be determined at time of payment. All payment of fees made to the City under this Chapter shall be deposited into the City Affordable Housing Ordinance Fund.
XII-1-5.02 - Calculation of impact fee
The impact fee will be calculated on a per square foot basis for net new gross floor area. The formula below shall be used in calculating the amount of the housing impact fee: (Gross square feet of total non-residential floor area) minus (square feet of existing non-residential floor area) multiplied by (per square foot fee) equals (total housing impact fee).
XII-1-5.03 - Exemptions
The following non-residential uses that will be exempt from the fee include:
682
38077.01007\34698461.1
12 Ordinance No. 297.1
a. New construction of non-residential uses of less than 5,000 square feet. b. Additions to existing non-residential uses where the square footage increase is less than 5,000 square feet.
c. Assembly uses.
d. Day care, nursery and school facilities.
e. Hospitals.
f. Other non-residential uses not listed above, but which the City Council determines will have a minimal impact upon the demand for affordable housing and to be exempt pursuant to City Council resolution.
Section 6 - General Procedures for Implementing Affordable Housing Requirements XII-1-6.00 - Agreements
Prior to the City allowing occupancy for an affordable unit, resale restrictions or rental controls, or both, as the case may be, shall be set forth in an agreement between the City and the applicant, which agreement shall be recorded against the property containing the affordable units. The agreement shall be executed by the City Manager or designee, and its requirements shall run with the land and bind the applicant's successors. Covenants on the affordable units shall not be less than 55 years.
XII-1-6.01 - Rental units; occupancy; annual report
Agreements involving rental units shall require the owner of the affordable units to ensure that the units are occupied by tenants whose monthly income levels do not exceed very low-, low-, or moderate income levels, as the case may be, and shall preclude tenants from subletting or subleasing the unit.
The agreement shall also require the owner of the affordable unit to submit an annual report to the City Manager, in a format approved by the City. The report shall include, but not be limited to the following information: an identification of the affordable units within the project; the monthly rents charged and proposed to be charged; vacancy information for the prior year; and the monthly income for tenants of each affordable unit throughout the prior year.
XII-1-6.02 - Ownership Units; Occupancy; City's Purchase Option Agreements for ownership units shall specify that the inclusionary units must be occupied by the owner or owners and may not be leased or rented without the written approval of the City. The resale restrictions shall provide that in the event of the sale of an affordable unit, the City shall have the right to purchase any affordable owner-occupant unit at the maximum price that could be charged to an eligible household. Ownership units will have a 55-year resale restriction covenant with a purchase option to the City. Homeowners will be subject to the City's monitoring program for owner-occupancy.
XII-1-6.03 - Selection criteria
No household shall be permitted to occupy a unit that is required under this Chapter to be affordable unless the City Manager or designee has approved the household's eligibility. Eligible potential occupants of affordable units will be qualified on the basis of household income, the median combined household income statistics for Santa Clara County published periodically by the California 683
38077.01007\34698461.1
13 Ordinance No. 297.1
Department of Housing and Community Development, all sources of household income and assets, the relationship between household size and the size of available units, and any further criteria required by law. The applicant shall use an equitable selection method established in conformance with the terms of this Chapter and subject to approval by the City. The selection criteria may not distinguish between adults and children. Subject to the requirements of state and federal fair housing laws and regulations, the City shall endeavor to make housing available for Milpitas residents, former Milpitas residents who have been displaced, households with children enrolled in the Milpitas Unified School District that have inadequate housing as defined in the federal McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, and employees employed within the boundaries City of Milpitas, and may develop selection criteria to implement these goals.

B. Rental Projects: The City may allow an exception to the requirement to construct on-site affordable units for a residential rental project if requested by the applicant, provided that as a 693
condition of such exception that applicant shall be required to contribute to the City’s affordable housing needs through one of the alternatives set forth in Subsections XII-1-4.00-XII-1-4.02.
XII-1-4.00 - Payment of fees in lieu of creation of affordable units Upon request of the applicant and subject to the requirements of this Section 4 as set forth above, the City Council may permit the applicant to pay a fee in lieu of constructing the affordable units that the applicant would otherwise be required to construct pursuant to this Chapter. In-lieu fees shall also be paid for requirements to construct fractional units of less than 0.5 units as set forth in Section XII-1-3.00. The City shall adopt, by resolution, current affordable housing impactin-lieu fee levels as well as administrative guidelines necessary for the implementation of this Chapter.
To the extent State law may require, applicants for development of rental units will not require the approval of City Council for the payment of in-lieu fees, but shall otherwise be subject to all requirements herein.
Fees paid in-lieu of constructing affordable units must be paid prior to the issuance of the building permit for the project, and fees shall be deposited into the City’s Affordable Housing Ordinance Fund. The in-lieu fee shall be calculated based on the gross square footage constructed for each new residential use, taking into account any fee credits that would be applicable based on existing building area. While accessory dwelling units are not counted towards either calculating or meeting the 15% on-site affordable housing requirement pursuant to Section XII-1-3.00, any payment of in-lieu fees must be based on the total gross square footage of all dwelling units developed as part of the project, including any accessory dwelling units.
Unless otherwise specified by resolution of the City Council or amendment to this Chapter, every July 1, or the following business day, if applicable, the City will adjust the affordable housing fees for inflation using the Engineering NewNews Record McGraw-Hill Construction Weekly Building Cost Index for San Francisco. If this index ceases to exist, the Director of Building Safety and Housing shall substitute another construction cost index, which in his/her judgment is as nearly equivalent to the original index as possible.
The applicant shall pay any in-lieu fees authorized pursuant to this Chapter prior to issuance of the building permit. Applicable fees will be determined at time of payment. All payment of in-lieu fees and other penalties and payments made to the City under this Chapter shall be deposited into the Affordable Housing Ordinance Fund.

Upon request of the applicant, the City Council may permit an applicant to comply with the requirements of this Chapter by constructing the affordable units not physically within the development but within the City of Milpitas in lieu of constructing some or all of the affordable units within the development, with the approval of the City Council, if the City Council finds that:
1. Construction of the units off-site in lieu of constructing units on-site is consistent with the Chapter's goal of creating, preserving, maintaining, and protecting housing for very low-, low- and moderate-incomemoderate income households.
2. The units to be constructed off site are consistent with Section XII-1-3.04 above.
3. It would be infeasible or impractical to construct affordable units on-site. 694
4. Conditions of approval for the project require that the off-site affordable units would be governed by the terms of a deed restriction and, if applicable, rental restrictions similar to that used for the on-site affordable units.
5. The conditions of approval for the project, or other security such as a cash deposit, bond, or letter of credit, are adequate to require the construction of the off-site affordable units prior or concurrently with the completion of the construction of the residential development.
Affordable units can be built off-site using a different tenure than the subject development (i.e., rental affordable units for an ownership residential project) provided that the square footage of livable space of affordable units provided off-site is greater than what would be required on-site. In this case, the above requirements shall be met and the income-category shall be equivalent to or lower than what would be required for affordable units with the same tenure. The term of the affordable housing and/or resale restrictions shall be determined by the tenure of the affordable units and shall be consistent with sections XII-1-6.00 through XII-1-6.02 of this Chapter as applicable.
XII-1-4.02 - Land dedication
Upon request of the applicant, the City Council may permit an applicant to dedicate land within the City of Milpitas to the City or a City-designated local non-profit housing developer in lieu of construction of some or all of the required affordable units, if the Council finds that:

3. The proposed land dedication property includes a minimum of _0.75 acres of developable area, and is of sufficient size and value to meet the following requirements:
a. The dedication property includes land sufficient to construct the number of units that the applicant would otherwise be required to construct by Section XII-1-3.00 based on (i) the size of lots in the subdivision for which the applicant is meeting its obligation; and if the applicant’s project is an ownership project, or (ii) the size of the parcel needed to construct the required number of affordable units if the applicant’s project is a rental project and assuming the affordable rental units are of comparable size to the market rate units; and b. In addition, the dedication property includes such additional land the market value for which is equal to or exceeds the difference between the value of a market-rate, 1200-square foot for-sale unit and the price at which such a unit could be sold as an affordable moderate income unit (which amount shall be set forth in a resolution adopted from time to time by the City Council) times the number of on-site affordable units that would otherwise be required for the development.
XII-1-4.03 - Credit transfers
695
An applicant may fully or partially satisfy the requirements of XII-1-3.00 through the use of transfer credits created pursuant to XII-1-7.00.

Section 5 - Non-Residential Affordable Housing Impact Fee XII-1-5.01 - Applicability
Any non-residential development, applicable under the definition set forth in Section XII-1-2.05, is subject to payment of a non-residential affordable housing impact fee. The City shall adopt, by resolution, current non-residential affordable housing impact fee levels. Every July 1, or the following business day, if applicable, the City will adjust affordable housing fees for inflation annually using the Engineering NewNews Record McGraw-Hill Construction Weekly Building Cost Index for San Francisco. If this index ceases to exist, the Director of Building Safety and Housing shall substitute another construction cost index, which in his/her judgment is as nearly equivalent to the original index as possible.
The applicant shall pay the non-residential impact fees prior to issuance of the building permit.
Applicable fees will be determined at time of payment. All payment of fees made to the City under this Chapter shall be deposited into the City Affordable Housing Ordinance Fund.
XII-1-5.02 - Calculation of impact fee
The impact fee will be calculated on a per square foot basis for net new gross floor area.

Dear Mayor Tran, Vice Mayor Montano, and Councilmembers Chua, Dominguez, and Phan, On behalf of our members, we write today to provide comments regarding proposed changes to the rental inclusionary alternatives as part of the Affordable Housing Ordinance adopted by Council on June 19, 2018 (Ordinance No. 297).
SV@Home supports staff’s recommendation to clarify language and definitions, as well as increase the number of alternative options developers can explore to help achieve and incentivize the creation of inclusionary rental housing on-site.
Offering additional options for new residential and mixed-use developments seeking to build more than 10- units, affords flexibility and improves a developer’s ability to be responsive to the city’s interests and priorities.
We support staff recommending ownership project standards that incentivize compliance with the affordable housing program as intended and encourage the city to clarify the acceptable mix of affordability as to not exceed 80% AMI. Creating such mechanisms will help ensure that applicants are able to submit compliant applications based on clearly defined and achievable objective standards. Crafting a viable mix of inclusionary options will help ensure that residents of Milpitas can have affordable housing choices throughout the city for years to come.
We would like to thank city staff for their extensive outreach to stakeholders and for working to bring this proposed ordinance before you. We would also like to thank the Council for your leadership on housing issues and look forward to working with you to address the housing crisis facing Milpitas and the surrounding community.
Sincerely,
