The project site is located in the El Camino Real Focus Area, a local and regional commercial and transportation corridor envisioned for high intensity commercial and residential development in the City’s 2010-2030 General Plan. The site is developed with multiple commercial buildings totaling 21,780 square feet and paved parking areas.
The proposed project includes a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP); a Rezone from Thoroughfare Commercial (CT) to Planned Development (PD); and Tentative Tract Map (CEQ2020-01080, PLN2020-14674 and PLN2020- 14705). These entitlements together would allow development of 60 for-sale residential units with resident and guest parking, private street site access and circulation, landscaped open area for shared resident use, and off-site improvements, which includes removal of one-way vehicular bridge over Calabazas Creek adjacent to the project site. The residential units are comprised of 40 townhomes and 20 flats. Nine (15%) of the total number of units are to be provided as affordable housing units and secured with and Affordable Housing Agreement with the City. Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions governed by a Homeowners Associated are to be established and implemented for future private maintenance of the development.
BACKGROUND
The project site is currently designated Community Mixed-Use in the General Plan and is within the El Camino Real Focus Area. This designation provides flexibility to allow development that is either entirely commercial, completely residential or a combination of commercial and residential development at a minimum commercial floor area ratio of 0.10 and residential development between 20 to 36 dwelling units per acre.
The General Plan vision for the El Camino Real is to transform this Focus Area from a series of automobile-oriented commercial uses to a tree-lined pedestrian and transit-oriented corridor with a mix of retail and residential uses at higher intensities of development. To further this vision, in 2015, the City Council authorized the El Camino Real as a Priority Development Area (PDA) for the intensification of land uses along transit corridors. PDAs are locally designated areas within communities to focus compact and efficient growth and development that: 1) increases both the City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 6 Printed on 7/8/2022

housing supply, including affordable housing for low-income residents and jobs within the planning area; 2) supports and increases transit ridership and thereby reducing vehicle miles traveled by PDA residents, employees and visitors; 3) promotes multi-modal connections for residents, employees and visitors within the PDA; and 4) locates key services and retail within the planning area.
The subject property is currently developed with a mixture of restaurant, retail and service commercial uses located within three one-story commercial pad buildings totaling 21,780 square feet in area. Adjoining uses are single family residential to the north and a lot currently under construction for a four-story residential project to the east. Commercial uses are located to the south, across El Camino Real, and to the west, across Calabazas Boulevard. A rezoning of the property is required to convert the existing use of the site from commercial to residential use. The applicant has proposed a PD zoning of the site in order to establish unique development standards for the project and Tentative Tract Map for sale of the individual units. The primary issues for the project are consistency with the City’s General Plan and conformance with the City Code for a Planned Development Zoning.
The proposed project is consistent with the goals and policies set forth in the General Plan for the site, including the policies of the El Camino Real Focus Area, and the sites’ land use designation of Community Mixed Use, as discussed in the Planning Commission staff report (Attachment 4).
However, the three-story proposal does not follow the direction on height provided by the City Council during the consideration hearings on the El Camino Real Specific Plan in the Summer of 2021, as discussed below.
El Camino Real Specific Plan
In 2017, the City Council initiated preparation of a Specific Plan for the El Camino Real Focus Area to provide a more detailed level of policy and design guidance to support the successful transformation of the corridor. A Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) was appointed to guide the Specific Plan planning process. Preparation of a draft El Camino Real Specific Plan was completed in May 2021 and presented to the City Council for adoption at the June 15, 2021 City Council meeting. The draft Specific Plan included three proposed land use designations, as recommended by the CAC, supporting residential and mixed-use development at low (Corridor Residential), medium (Corridor Mixed-Use) and higher (Regional Mixed-Use) densities. The Corridor Residential designation was intended to support development of townhomes and stacked flat housing projects, while the Corridor Mixed-Use and Regional Mixed-Use designations were intended to support mixed-use residential apartment or condominium style development.
As recommended by the CAC, the El Camino Real Specific Plan draft land use plan identified the project site as Corridor Mixed-Use allowing four- to five-story residential development at 45 to 65 dwelling units per acre (du/ac). The draft Specific Plan, including land uses, was presented for City Council adoption at the June 15, 2021 City Council meeting. The City Council directed staff to modify the proposed Specific Plan Land Use designations to establish reduced height limits and densities as follows: no more than two stories for Corridor Residential, no more than three stories for Corridor Mixed-Use, and no more than four stories for Regional Mixed-Use. As part of the Council consideration of the item, the applicant requested that the subject property be designated Corridor Residential to align with their desire to develop the site with a townhouse/stacked flat project rather than at the higher density of Corridor Mixed-Use, which would correspond to a higher density, type of development. The City Council did not take action on this request but expressed support for a townhome type development.

22-841 Agenda Date: 7/12/2022
On July 6, 2021, the City Council affirmed their direction to staff to prepare an alternative form of the Specific Plan that reduces densities from the prior draft; and, at their meeting on October 19, 2021, it was again reiterated to proceed with modification of the Specific Plan to include the height limits as directed at the July meeting. At the October meeting, the City Council also directed staff to continue consideration of the first draft Specific Plan and to prepare an analysis comparing the economic feasibility of the two different land use plans. As part of the recent budget process the Council allocated funding to proceed with work on the Specific Plan and staff will be returning to City Council in the next month to further define the scope of this work.
DISCUSSION
The project was presented to the Planning Commission at a public noticed meeting on June 15, 2022. At this meeting, staff provided an overview of the proposal and was followed by the developer to present background information, planning process timeline and responses to comments by the Planning Commission. A single resident participated in the meeting to convey support of for-sale housing opportunities that include affordable units and responded to neighbor concerns regarding height and residential density in the design. Following the close of public hearing, the Planning Commission questioned and discussed off-site improvements by the applicant, including removal of the one-way vehicle bridge that spans Calabazas Creek located across from the site along Calabazas Boulevard, and the project and plans under study by the Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) and the City for future bike lanes along El Camino Real as a part of the draft Central Bikeway Study and its potential impact to the site if, and when, developed. The Planning Commission members also expressed concern regarding the loss of retail at this location with specific attention to the grocery market that serves the culturally diverse community. The Planning Commission concluded their deliberations with the following motions 7-0-0-0:
1. Adopt a resolution recommending that Council adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the 3155 El Camino Real Residential Project.
2. Adopt a resolution recommending that Council rezone the project site from CT to PD to allow development of the project as proposed by the Developer, subject to the following conditions:
· Preserve and upgrade the bridge for safety to avoid traffic and U-turn challenges on Calabazas Boulevard.
· Evaluate the VTA bike plan in conjunction with the project proposed, including maintaining the eight-foot public right-of-way for future a bike path and planting of trees along the bikeway.
· City to evaluate impact to local retail and address in the Specific Plan other opportunities for cultural relocation of displaced businesses. · Request that Traffic Engineering provide additional information to the Council on the requirements for the bridge removal.
3. Adopt a resolution recommending that Council approve the Tentative Tract Map to subdivide the land into residential condominiums and a common interest lot to serve the development.
The existing one-way vehicular bridge that spans Calabazas Creek is located on Calabazas Boulevard directly across from the project. This bridge is owned and maintained privately by the applicant, was permitted by the Santa Clara Valley Water District in the late 1960’s and provides direct southbound left turn access to the previous development from Calabazas Boulevard.

developer is proposing to remove this bridge so that they will not need to maintain it into the future.
Public Works staff supports this removal to eliminate unnecessary midblock street openings due to the close proximity to the intersection of El Camino Real and Calabazas Boulevard. Adequate access to the project site from southbound Calabazas Boulevard can be accommodated through a Uturn at El Camino Real. The applicant has been coordinating with the Santa Clara Valley Water District regarding removal.
Regarding future VTA plans for bicycle facilities on El Camino Real (i.e. VTA’s draft Central Bikeway Study), Public Works staff have been closely involved in this study. Although the Central Bikeway Study has not been approved by the City Council, staff did review both the development plans and the draft Central Bikeway Study plans and do not see any conflict between the plans or any need to limit sidewalks on El Camino Real to 8-feet as suggested by the VTA.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
A MND was prepared for the project by the environmental consultant firm David J. Powers & Associate, Inc., in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The MND and Notice of Availability were posted on the City’s website at <https://www.santaclaraca.gov/our-city/departments-a-f/community-development/planningdivision/environmental-review-ceqa> and circulated for 30-day review on February 14, 2022, and ending on March 15, 2022, in accordance with CEQA requirements. The Planning Department received agency comments on the MND from Caltrans and Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority and are provided as Attachment 2 along with responses to comments for review.
The MND examined potential environmental impacts associated with project development and identified air quality, biological, cultural resources, geology and soils, and hazards and hazardous materials impacts that with incorporation of mitigation measures into the project would reduce all potential impacts to less than significant. A detailed discussion of the potential impacts and mitigation measures to be applied to the project are specified in the MND and would be implemented through project conditions of approval and the MMRP for the proposed project.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to the City for processing the requested application other than administrative time and expense typically covered by processing fees paid by the applicant.

Section 21081 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires a Lead Agency to adopt a Mitigation Monitoring or Reporting Program whenever it approves a project for which measures have been required to mitigate or avoid significant effects on the environment. The purpose of the monitoring or reporting program is to ensure compliance with the mitigation measures during project implementation.
On _____, the Planning Commission approved the Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for the 3155 El Camino Real Residential Development Project. The Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration concluded that the implementation of the project could result in significant effects on the environment and mitigation measures were incorporated into the proposed project or are required as a condition of project approval. This Mitigation Monitoring or Reporting Program addresses those measures in terms of how and when they will be implemented.
This document does not discuss those subjects for which the Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration concluded that mitigation measures would not be required to reduce significant impacts.

MM-HAZ-1.7: If over excavation of some or all of the former tank backfill is required for geotechnical purposes, the designated Environmental Professional shall observe
excavation activities and perform sampling of laboratory analyses.
The contractor will delineate the former tank pit boundaries and will perform the necessary excavation. The Environmental Professional will document the approximate size of the former tank pit excavation as well as visibly apparent indicators of contamination on the excavation sidewall or base.
An organic vapor meter will be used to monitor hydrocarbon vapors in the excavation. Soil observed to be potentially impacted should be placed on top of and covered by plastic sheeting and will be separately stockpiled from presumed “clean” soil.

MM-HAZ-1.8: During construction activities, if unanticipated contamination (e.g., if soil discoloration, odors, and/or elevated organic vapor meter readings are noted), buried structures (e.g., sumps or tanks), or hazardous debris are encountered that may pose a risk to human health or the environment, earthwork in the suspect area will be immediately stopped and worker access to the suspect area will be restricted. The area will be cordoned off using delineators and caution tape, or similar materials by the Contractor. Subsequently, the Environmental Professional and project applicant will be notified. The quality of soil suspected to be contaminated will be evaluated through
analytical testing by the Environmental Professional so that appropriate handling and disposal alternatives can be
determined.
MM-HAZ-1.9: During impacted soil loading activities, the contractor will place heavy plastic sheeting beneath the trucks to collect any spilled soil. To avoid spreading of the
contamination, after each truck is loaded and prior to moving off the plastic sheeting, the top rails, fences, tires, and all other surfaces with visible dust or soil spilled during loading will be removed by dry brushing methods at the point of loading. The collected soil on the plastic will be periodically removed to avoid the spreading of impacted soil on the truck tires.

and groundwater migration through trench backfill and utility conduits. Such measures shall include placement of lowpermeability backfill “plugs” at selected intervals on-site and at all locations where the utility trenches extend off-site. In addition, utility conduits that are placed below groundwater will be installed with water-tight fittings to reduce the potential for groundwater to migrate into the conduits. The Civil Engineer should survey and record all ‘plug’ placement
locations.
MM-HAZ-1.13: If excavation dewatering is required, pumped water will be transferred from the excavations into holding tanks and then either pumped to the sanitary sewer under a Publicly Owned Treatment Works permit, treated and
discharged to the storm drain system pursuant to a California Regional Water Quality Control Board – San Francisco Bay Region (Water Board) National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit, and/or loaded into tanker trucks for off-site disposal. If on-site reuse for dust control is desired, water samples must be collected from the holding tank and analyzed for volatile organic compounds and TPHg (EPA Test Method 8260B) and TPHd (EPA Test Method 8015M). If the detected analytes do not exceed groundwater ESLs, the water in the holding tanks can be reused on-Site for dust control.

Environmental Health (SCCDEH) for review and approval
prior to start of construction. The VIM design document will describe pre-occupancy sub-membrane sampling. Although
concentrations of PCE and benzene detected do not
significantly exceed Tier 1 ESLs, the VIM system will be designed to avoid any post-occupancy sampling or monitoring requirement. Such a system could include two membranes (one on sub-grade and one sub-slab), a minimum eight inches of gaspermeable gravel beneath the concrete slab/membrane, and passive sub-slab ventilation.
3155 El Camino Real Residential Development Project 17 City of Santa Clara In addition to mitigation measures listed above, there are also other conditions of approval the project shall implement, including the following:
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
3155 El Camino Real Residential Development Project
Long-term increased cancer risk and annual PM2.5 exposure for new project occupants: Best Management Practices • Install air filtration in residential units on the ground floor that are within 90 feet of the closest El Camino Real travel lanes (Buildings 1 and 2). Air filtration devices shall be rated MERV13 or higher. To ensure adequate health protection to sensitive receptors (i.e., residents), this ventilation system, whether mechanical or passive, shall filter all fresh air that would be circulated into the dwelling units. • The ventilation system shall be designed to keep the building at positive pressure when doors and windows are closed to reduce the intrusion of unfiltered outside air into the building.
• As part of implementing this measure, an ongoing maintenance plan for the buildings’ heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) air filtration system shall be required that includes regular filter replacement. • Ensure that the use agreement and other property documents: (1) require cleaning, maintenance, and monitoring of the affected buildings for air flow leaks, (2) include assurance that new owners or tenants are provided information on the ventilation system, and (3) include provisions that fees associated with owning or leasing a unit(s) in the building include funds for cleaning, maintenance, monitoring, and replacements of the filters, as needed.
Soil Erosion: Best Management Practices
• All excavation and grading work would be scheduled in dry weather months or construction sites would be weatherized to withstand or avoid erosion.
• Stockpiles and excavated soils would be covered during construction with secured tarps or plastic sheeting. • Vegetation in disturbed areas would be replanted as quickly as possible after construction.
Conditions for Lead and Asbestos Removal
• In conformance with state and local laws, a visual inspection/pre-demolition survey, and possible sampling, shall be conducted prior to the demolition of on-site buildings to determine the presence of asbestos-containing materials and/or lead-based paint. • Prior to demolition activities, all building materials containing lead-based paint shall be removed in accordance with Cal/OSHA Lead in Construction Standard, Title 8, California Code of Regulations 1532.1, including employee training, employee air monitoring, and dust 3155 El Camino Real Residential Development Project 18 City of Santa Clara
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
3155 El Camino Real Residential Development Project
control. Any debris or soil containing lead-based paint or coatings would be disposed of at landfills that meet acceptance criteria for the waste being disposed.
• All potentially friable ACMs shall be removed in accordance with National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) guidelines prior to any building demolition or renovation that may disturb the materials. All demolition activities will be undertaken in accordance with Cal/OSHA standards contained in Title 8 of CCR, Section 1529, to protect workers from exposure to asbestos. • A registered asbestos abatement contractor shall be retained to remove and dispose of ACMs identified in the asbestos survey performed for the site in accordance with the standards stated above. • Materials containing more than one percent asbestos are also subject to BAAQMD regulations. Removal of materials containing more than one percent asbestos shall be completed in accordance with BAAQMD requirements.
Best Management Practices: Construction Water Quality Impacts • Burlap bags filled with drain rock shall be installed around storm drains to route sediment and other debris away from the drains; • Earthmoving or other dust-producing activities would be suspended during period of high winds; • All exposed or disturbed soil surfaces would be watered at least twice daily to control dust as necessary; • Stockpiles of soil or other materials that can be blown by the wind would be watered or covered; • All trucks hauling soil, sand, and other loose materials shall be covered; • All paved access roads, parking areas, staging areas and residential streets adjacent to the construction sites would be swept daily (with water sweepers); and
• Vegetation in disturbed areas would be replanted as quickly as possible.
Best Management Practices: Post-Construction Water Quality • When the construction phase is complete, a Notice of Termination (NOT) for the General Permit for Construction will be filed with the RWQCB and the City of Santa Clara. The NOT shall document that all elements of the SWPPP have been executed, construction materials and waste have been properly disposed of, and a post-construction stormwater management plan is in place as described in the SWPPP for the project site.
3155 El Camino Real Residential Development Project 19 City of Santa Clara
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
3155 El Camino Real Residential Development Project
• All post-construction Treatment Control Measures (TCMs) shall be installed, operated, and maintained by qualified personnel. On-site inlets will be cleaned out at a minimum of once per year, prior to the wet season. • The property owner/site manager shall keep a maintenance and inspection schedule and record to ensure the TCMs continue to operate effectively for the life of the project. Copies of the schedule and record must be provided to the City upon request and must be made available for inspection on-site at all times.
Construction Noise Control Plan Measures
• Construction activities shall be limited to hours between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on weekdays and 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on Saturdays. No construction is permitted on Sundays or holidays.
• Construct temporary noise barriers, where feasible, to screen stationary noise-generating equipment. Temporary noise barrier fences would provide a 5 dBA noise reduction if the noise barrier interrupts the line-of-sight between the noise source and receiver and if the barrier is constructed in a manner that eliminates any cracks or gaps. • Equip all internal combustion engine-driven equipment with intake and exhaust mufflers that are in good condition and appropriate for the equipment.
• If geotechnical conditions allow, drilled piles should be used in place of impact or vibratory pile driving. Drilled piles would generate substantially less noise than impact-drive pile driving. • Unnecessary idling of internal combustion engines should be strictly prohibited. • Locate stationary noise-generating equipment, such as air compressors or portable power generators, as far as possible from sensitive receptors as feasible. If they must be located near receptors, adequate muffling (with enclosures where feasible and appropriate) shall be used reduce noise levels at the adjacent sensitive receptors. Any enclosure openings or venting shall face away from sensitive receptors. • Utilize "quiet" air compressors and other stationary noise sources where technology exists. • Construction staging areas shall be established at locations that will create the greatest distance between the construction-related noise sources and noise-sensitive receptors nearest the project site during all project construction. • Control noise from construction workers’ radios to a point where they are not audible at existing residential uses to the north of the project site.
• The contractor shall prepare a detailed construction plan identifying the schedule for major noise-generating construction activities. The construction plan shall identify a procedure for coordination with adjacent residential land uses so that construction activities can be scheduled to minimize noise disturbance.
3155 El Camino Real Residential Development Project 20 City of Santa Clara
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
3155 El Camino Real Residential Development Project
• Designate a "disturbance coordinator" who would be responsible for responding to any complaints about construction noise. The disturbance coordinator will determine the cause of the noise complaint (e.g., bad muffler, etc.) and will require that reasonable measures be implemented to correct the problem. Conspicuously post a telephone number for the disturbance coordinator at the construction site and include in it the notice sent to neighbors regarding the construction schedule.
Interior Noise Impact Conditions
• A qualified acoustical specialist shall prepare a detailed analysis of interior residential noise levels resulting from all exterior sources during the design phase pursuant to requirements set forth in the State Building Code. The study will review the final site plan, building elevations, and floor plans prior to construction and determine building treatments to reduce residential interior noise levels to 45 dBA DNL or lower.
Treatments would include, but are not limited to, sound-rated windows and doors, sound-rated wall and window constructions, acoustical caulking, protected ventilation openings, etc. The specific determination of what noise insulation treatments are necessary shall be conducted on a unit-by-unit basis during final design of the project. Results of the analysis, including the description of the necessary noise control treatments, shall be submitted to the City, along with the building plans and approved design, prior to issuance of a building permit.

RESPONSE TO COMMENTS
The 3155 El Camino Real Residential Project Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) was prepared and evaluated in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The IS/MND was circulated for 30 days from February 14 to March 15, 2022. The City received two comment letters during the public comment period:
Comment Letters Received by the City from State, County, or Local agencies:
A. California Department of Transportation March 14, 2022 B. Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority March 15, 2022 This memo responses to public comments on the IS/MND as they relate to the potential environmental impacts of the project under CEQA. Numbered responses correspond to comments in each comment letter. Copies of all comment letters are attached.
Comment Letter A: California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) – March 14, 2022 Comment A-1: The project is located directly along State Route (SR)-85 in Santa Clara. The project proposes to construct eight residential buildings containing a total of 60 residential units. The buildings would range from two to three stories with a height of approximately 34 to 40 feet. The project would also include 110 parking spaces.
Response A-1: Caltrans has correctly summarized the project as presented in the IS/MND.
Comment A-2: The project VMT analysis and significance determination are undertaken in a manner consistent with the Office of Planning and Research’s (OPR) Technical Advisory. Per the IS/MND, this project is found to have a less than significant VMT impact, therefore working towards meeting the State’s VMT reduction goals.
Response A-2: Caltrans has correctly interpreted the VMT analysis presented in the IS/MND.
Comment A-3: Potential impacts to the State Right-of-Way (ROW) from project-related temporary access points should be analyzed. Mitigation for significant impacts due to construction and noise should be identified. Project work that requires movement of oversized or excessive load vehicles on State roadways requires a transportation permit that is issued by Caltrans. To apply, visit:
https://dot.ca.gov/programs/traffic-operations/transportation-permits. Prior to construction, coordination may be required with Caltrans to develop a Transportation Management Plan (TMP) to reduce construction traffic impacts to the State Transportation Network (STN).
Response A-3: The proposed project has analyzed the Air Quality, Noise, and Hazards impacts of the proposed project including improvements associated with the removal of the “porkchop” within the State ROW. These impacts were found to be less than significant, or were mitigated to a less than significant level with the incorporation of measures as identified in sections 4.3, 4.9, and 4.13 of the IS/MND. The proposed project would acquire all necessary permits from Caltrans to complete construction. Additionally, the proposed project would coordinate with Caltrans on the development of a TMP to reduce any impacts on the STN.
Comment A-4: As the Lead Agency, the City of Santa Clara is responsible for all project mitigation, including any needed improvements to the State Transportation Network (STN). The project’s fair share contribution, financing, scheduling, implementation responsibilities and lead agency monitoring should be fully discussed for all proposed mitigation measures.
Response A-4: The analysis did not identify any impacts to the State ROW. Therefore, there is no nexus to require transportation mitigation for the project.
Comment A-5: If any Caltrans facilities are impacted by the project, those facilities must meet American Disabilities Act (ADA) Standards after project completion. As well, the project must maintain bicycle and pedestrian access during construction. These access considerations support Caltrans’ equity mission to provide a safe, sustainable, and equitable transportation network for all users.
Response A-5: The proposed project will comply with state and local regulations for ADA accessibility and will maintain access to pedestrian and bicycle access during construction.
Comment A-6: Please be advised that any permanent work or temporary traffic control that encroaches onto Caltrans’ ROW requires a Caltrans-issued encroachment permit. As part of the encroachment permit submittal process, you may be asked by the Office of Encroachment Permits to submit a completed encroachment permit application package, digital set of plans clearly delineating Caltrans’ ROW, digital copy of signed, dated and stamped (include stamp expiration date) traffic control plans, this comment letter, your response to the comment letter, and where applicable, the following items: new or amended Maintenance Agreement (MA), approved Design Standard Decision Document (DSDD), approved encroachment exception request, and/or airspace lease agreement. Your application package may be emailed to [email protected].
Please note that Caltrans is in the process of implementing an online, automated, and milestonebased Caltrans Encroachment Permit System (CEPS) to replace the current permit application submittal process with a fully electronic system, including online payments. The new system is expected to be available during 2022. To obtain information about the most current encroachment permit process and to download the permit application, please visit https://dot.ca.gov/programs/traffic-operations/ep/applications.
Response A-6: The proposed project would require encroachment into the Caltrans ROW and would therefore require a Caltrans encroachment permit. The developer would provide the required permit information prior to construction and would coordinate with Caltrans on the requirements of the permit.
Comment Letter B: Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority – March 15, 2022 Comment B-1: VTA appreciates the opportunity to comment on the Initial Study for the 3155 El Camino Real Residential Project. VTA has reviewed the document and has the following comments:
Central Bikeway Integration
VTA has worked closely with City of Santa Clara staff to plan for a future high quality, low stress bikeway that is complimentary of the City of Santa Clara Council Adopted Bicycle Master Plan vision for El Camino Real. Central Bikeways builds on the idea of protected bikeway and enhances it, with a sidewalk level bikeway, permanent protected barrier, enhanced landscaping, lighting upgrades, wayfinding, and improved protected intersections. While still in the conceptual planning stage, it is important to not preclude or increase costs for the future bikeway as properties redevelop along this important corridor. Please visit www.vta.org/centralbikeway for more details.
VTA commends the project for removing curb cuts along El Camino Real. Doing so reduces the amount of conflict points for pedestrians and bicycle and enhances the experience on this section of El Camino Real. VTA strongly recommends the following modifications to the site plan to better integrate with the future Central Bikeway:
x Maintain only eight-foot width maximum of sidewalk along the El Camino Real frontage.
The project states it will build a 10.5-foot sidewalk, although it unclear from the site plan how much is on private property and how much is in the public right of way. Extending the sidewalk beyond eight feet in the public right of way could conflict with the future bikeway and require additional work or cost to rebuild the sidewalk in the future (see Attachment A).
However, if the project intends to build some of the proposed 10.5-foot sidewalk on private property, VTA supports this plan.
x Potentially minimize the use of trees along the four-foot planted strip. Relocation or removal of this trees would likely occur I the future when the bikeway is constructed. x Provide a fair share contribution towards the future reconstruction of the Calabazas Boulevard protected intersection improvements identified in the Central Bikeway Basis of Design Plans (see attachment A). VTA strongly supports this project removing the free righthand turn (porkchop) from El Camino Real to Calabazas Boulevard. This goes a long way towards creating a safer city for all users.
x Require any light poles along El Camino Real to also include additional pedestrian-scale lighting to compliment the future bikeway.
We recognize some of these changes may be counterintuitive to the current design and vision of wider sidewalks and a planted buffer common along El Camino Real.
Response B-1: The VTA’s support of the project is acknowledged. VTA’s recommendations regarding sidewalk width, fair share contribution, lighting, and tree planting will be taken under consideration by the decision-making bodies. Additionally, the proposed project would expand the sidewalk into the project site and would not take up additional right of way on the street side of the sidewalk. The proposed project would comply with the policies, guidelines and regulations of the decision-making body regarding the project design features.

REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION
SUBJECT
Actions on a Proposed Multi-family Residential Project to Develop 60 units (40 Townhomes and 20 Flats) at 3141 - 3155 El Camino Real
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The applicant, Oak Investment Group, LLC, is proposing to construct a 60-unit residential development at 25 dwelling units per acre (du/ac) on two contiguous parcels totaling 2.41 acres. The site is currently developed with multiple commercial buildings totaling 21,780 square feet and paved surface parking areas. The proposal includes 60 for-sale residential units, a private street, visitor parking, common landscaped open space, and future private maintenance provisions with the establishment of a Homeowners Association (HOA) and Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&R’s). The residential units are composed of 40 three-story townhomes and 20 flats. Nine units (15% of the 60 units) are to be provided as affordable housing units.
The project site is located in the El Camino Real Focus Area, a local and regional commercial and transportation corridor envisioned for high intensity commercial and residential development in the City’s 2010-2035 General Plan. The proposal is generally consistent with the goals and policies set forth in the General Plan for the site as discussed in the following report; however, the three-story proposal does not follow the direction on height provided by the City Council during the summer 2022 consideration hearings on the El Camino Real Specific Plan.
BACKGROUND
The proposed project includes a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP); a Rezone from Thoroughfare Commercial (CT) to Planned Development (PD); and Tentative Tract Map (File Nos. CEQ2020-01080, PLN2020-14674 and PLN2020-14705). These entitlements together would allow development of 40 townhomes and 20 flats, private street site access and circulation, landscaped open area for shared resident use, and off -site improvements that includes removal of the pedestrian bridge over Calabazas Creek adjacent to the project site.
A rezoning of the property is required to convert the existing use of the site from commercial to residential use. The applicant has proposed a PD zoning of the site in order to establish unique development standards for the project and a Tentative Tract Map for sale of the individual units.
The subject property is currently developed with a mixture of restaurant, retail and service commercial uses located within three one-story commercial pad buildings totaling 21,780 square feet in area. Adjoining uses are single-family residential to the north and a lot currently under construction for a four-story residential project to the east. Commercial uses are also located to the south, across El Camino Real, and to the west, across Calabazas Boulevard.
El Camino Real Draft Specific Plan

22-718 Agenda Date: 6/15/2022
In 2017, the City Council initiated preparation of a Specific Plan for the El Camino Real Focus Area to provide a more detailed level of policy and design guidance to support the successful transformation of the corridor. A Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) was appointed to guide the Specific Plan planning process. Preparation of a draft El Camino Real Specific Plan was completed in May 2021 and presented to the City Council for adoption at the June 15, 2021 City Council meeting. The draft Specific Plan included three proposed land use designations, as recommended by the CAC, supporting residential and mixed-use development at low (Corridor Residential), medium (Corridor Mixed Use) and higher (Regional Mixed Use) densities. The Corridor Residential designation was intended to support development of townhouse and stacked flat projects, while the Corridor Mixed Use and Regional Mixed-Use designations were intended to support mixed-use residential apartment or condominium style development.
As recommended by the CAC, the El Camino Real Specific Plan draft land use plan identified the project site as Corridor Mixed-Use allowing four- to five-story residential development at 45 to 65 dwelling units per acre (du/ac). The draft Specific Plan, including land uses, was presented for City Council adoption at the June 15, 2021 City Council meeting. The City Council directed staff to modify the proposed Specific Plan Land Use designations to establish reduced height limits and densities as follows: no more than two-stories for Corridor Residential, no more than three stories for Corridor Mixed-Use, and no more than four stories for Regional Mixed-Use. As part of the Council consideration of the item, the applicant requested that the subject property be designated as Corridor Residential to align with their desire to develop the site with a townhouse/stacked flat project rather than at the higher density of Corridor Mixed-Use, which would correspond to a higher density, mixeduse type of development. Three community members expressed support for this lower density, while other community members advocated that it be retained as commercial use. The City Council did not take action on this request but expressed support for a townhouse type development.
On July 6, 2021, the City Council affirmed their direction to staff to prepare an alternative form of the Specific Plan that reduces densities from the prior draft, and, at their meeting on October 19, 2021, it was again reiterated to procced with modification of the Specific Plan to include the height limits as directed at the July meeting. At the October meeting, the City Council also directed staff to continue consideration of the first draft Specific Plan and to prepare an analysis comparing the economic feasibility of the two different land use plans. At the time of this staff report, the draft Specific Plan is awaiting approval of funding within the City’s budget to allow staff to initiate the work program to modify the Plan per City Council’s direction.
DISCUSSION
The primary issues for the project are conformance with the City’s General Plan and consistency with the City Code for a Planned Development Zoning.
General Plan Conformance
The site is currently designated Community Mixed-Use in the General Plan and is within the El Camino Real Focus Area. This designation provides flexibility to allow development that is either entirely commercial, completely residential or a combination of commercial and residential at a minimum floor area ratio (FAR) of 0.10 for commercial use and between 20 to 36 dwelling units per acre (du/ac) for residential use.
City of Santa Clara Page 2 of 10 Printed on 6/10/2022

22-718 Agenda Date: 6/15/2022
The General Plan vision for El Camino Real is to transform this Focus Area from a series of automobile-oriented commercial uses to a tree-lined pedestrian and transit-oriented corridor with a mix of retail and residential uses at higher intensities of development.
As noted above, the City has prepared a draft Specific Plan for the El Camino Real corridor that would include changes to the land use designations and policies for development along the corridor.
However, because the City has not acted on the draft Specific Plan, the site continues to be designated as Community Mixed-Use and governed by General Plan land use policies as it was designated in the 2010 General Plan update.
The proposed project is consistent with existing General Plan Policies as follows:
General Land Use Policies
· 5.3.1-P2: Encourage advance notification and neighborhood meetings to provide an opportunity for early community review of new development proposals. · 5.3.1-P26: Support a community-initiated planning process so that existing neighborhoods can participate in developing more detailed plans for street, landscape and pedestrian facility improvements.
Consistent with these policies, the applicant conducted public outreach through mailings and a virtual community meeting to involve neighboring property owners in the design of the project. Notices were mailed by the applicant to property owners within 500 feet of the project boundaries and interested parties.
· 5.3.1-P8: Work with property owners to improve or redevelop underutilized and vacant properties.
· 5.3.1-P9: Require that new development provide adequate public services and facilities, infrastructure, and amenities to serve the new employment or residential growth.
Consistent with these policies, the project would aggregate two commercial properties for the construction of 60 for-sale residential units consisting of 40 townhomes and 20 flats thereby increasing the type and tenure of the City’s housing supply. The project includes public and private improvements such as streetscape enhancements, private street and utilities, visitor parking, and landscaped open space to serve the development.
· 5.3.1-P10: Provide opportunities for increased landscaping and trees in the community, including requirements for new development to provide street trees and a minimum 2:1 on- or of-site replacement for trees removed as part of the proposal to help increase the urban forest and minimize the heat island effect.
Consistent with this policy, the proposed development plan includes landscaping of the site and street frontages with a variety of plant and tree species, and would replace the 16 trees removed with redevelopment at a ratio greater than the minimum requirement of 2:1, with a total of 90 trees. · 5.3.1-P12: Encourage convenient pedestrian connections within new and existing developments.
City of Santa Clara Page 3 of 10 Printed on 6/10/2022
powered by Legistar™
22-718 Agenda Date: 6/15/2022
Consistent with this policy, the project includes a tree-lined separated sidewalk along the street frontages of the project site to facilitate pedestrian access and link neighboring land uses. · 5.3.1-P16: Consolidate curb cuts with new development on arterial roadways to minimize pedestrian/vehicle conflicts at driveway locations and improve traffic flow.
Consistent with this policy, the project would eliminate the existing driveways along El Camino Real fronting the project site and replace them with a separated sidewalk that includes a planter strip adjacent to the curb and sidewalk behind, consistent with Complete Streets design standards, which would minimize the pedestrian and vehicle interface and improve traffic flow. A new curb-cut and driveway for site access and circulation would be provided along the Calabazas Boulevard frontage of the project site.
· P.3.1-P29: Encourage design of new development to be compatible with, and sensitive to, nearby existing and planned development, consistent with other applicable General Plan policies.
Consistent with this policy, the proposed project employs the City’s Transition Policies to taper mass and scale of the building clusters from three stories down to two stories in height at the rear where it interfaces with single-family residential development to the north. The proposed project is compatible in density and design of the three- and four-story residential development currently under construction abutting the project site to the east. One-story commercial development is located to the south across El Camino Real and east beyond Calabazas Creek.
El Camino Real Focus Area Policies
· 5.4.1-P2: Allow new development under Community Mixed-Use designation for exclusively residential or commercial uses provided that it meets the minimum requirements for Medium Density Residential or Community Commercial land use classifications. · 5.4.1-P5: Provide appropriate transition between new development in the Focus Area and adjacent uses consistent with General Plan Transition Policies. · 5.4.1-P6: Encourage lower profile development in area designated Community Mixed-Use in order to minimize land use conflicts with existing neighborhoods.
The project proposes exclusively residential development at 25 du/ac consistent with the density range of 20 - 36 du/ac for moderate density residential assigned to Community Mixed-Use General Plan land use designation for the site. Also consistent with the above policies, the design is compatible in height and density with existing and recently approved three- and four-story residential construction along the El Camino Real corridor. The project also transitions from threestories along the streetscape to two-stories at the rear of the property where it interfaces, and is separated by, a landscaped setback from neighboring single-family homes. · 5.4.1-P8: Orient ground floor retail and residential entries to the public sidewalk on El Camino Real.
· 5.4.1-P9: Residential development should include front doors, windows, stoops, porches, and bay windows or balconies along street frontages.

22-718 Agenda Date: 6/15/2022
Consistent with these policies, the buildings fronting El Camino Real and Calabazas Boulevard (Buildings 1, 2 and 3 on the site plan) are designed with front doors, windows and outdoor patios facing the adjacent street frontages.
· 5.4.1-P11: Locate parking at the side or rear of parcels and active uses along street frontages.
Consistent with this policy, the project design includes an attached garage for each unit that is oriented to and accessed from the private street internal to the project site. Visitor parking spaces are also located along the private street.
· 5.4.1-P16: Facilitate the implementation of streetscape improvements consistent with those illustrated in Figures 5.4-2.
Transition Policies
· 5.5.2-P1: Require that new development incorporate building articulation and architectural features, including front doors, windows, stoops, porches or bay windows along street frontages, to integrate new development into the existing neighborhoods.
Consistent with this policy, the project incorporates offsets along the building planes and a mixture of exterior materials and architectural features to create visual breaks and interest in the design for compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood. Buildings 1 - 3 integrate into the neighborhood with orientation of the front doors, windows, and outdoor patios towards the public domain. Pedestrian paths connect the units to the public sidewalk and neighboring properties. · 5.5.2-P3: Implement site design solutions, such and landscaping and increased building setbacks, to provide buffers between nonresidential and residential uses. · 5.5.2-P5: Require that new development provide an appropriate transition to surrounding neighborhoods.
See responses to policies 5.3.1-P29, 5.4.1-P5 and 5.4-P6 above.
Zoning Conformance
The project site consists of two parcels that are zoned Thoroughfare Commercial (CT). The CT zoning designation is intended for auto-oriented uses on a major commercial thoroughfare and does not allow residential uses. This zoning was established on the property prior to the City’s General Plan update in 2010 and does not align with the current General Plan vision for the corridor. The El Camino Real Focus Area discourages auto-related uses and is intended to promote a mix of residential and retail uses (either horizontal or vertical) along a tree-lined pedestrian-oriented corridor.
As the City’s existing Zoning Code does not have a zoning district that would allow a for-sale residential development consisting of townhomes and flats, a rezone of the project site is necessary to construct the project.
The proposed rezone to PD would allow residential development consisting of townhomes and flats and would implement the General Plan vision for the current El Camino Real Focus Area. Chapter
18.54 establishes a process and the requirements for PD zoning districts. PD zoning districts are intended to allow for creative design solutions and land uses not otherwise allowed in standard zoning districts while maintaining compatibility with the existing community and allowing for City of Santa Clara Page 5 of 10 Printed on 6/10/2022
powered by Legistar™
22-718 Agenda Date: 6/15/2022
homeownership. The proposed PD zoning would establish standards for the residential development that are compatible with existing and approved land uses and development surrounding the project site. While the current General Plan designation of Community Mixed-Use typically requires a commercial element, General Plan policies allow an entirely residential use for sites along El Camino Real.
Affordable Housing
The proposed project is subject to the City’s inclusionary housing ordinance and would be required to designate nine of the 60 units to be reserved for qualifying home buyers based on an income level at or below the 100 percent of Area Median Income.
Site Design and Architecture
The project consists of 60 residential units distributed among eight three-story buildings that transition to two-stories at the rear of the property. Buildings 1 and 2 include a mix of flats and townhomes that front El Camino Real. The flats are located on level 1 with the townhomes above on levels 2 and 3. Building 3 consists of townhomes and is oriented to front onto Calabazas Boulevard.
Buildings 4 - 8 are composed of townhomes and located perpendicular to the rear property line in rows behind the private street. The maximum building height is 43.3 feet at top of stairwells and steps down to an average roof height of 36.8 feet for the three-story units. The end units of Buildings 5 - 8 terrace down to two stories (25.5 feet in height) where they interface with the single-family homes to the north. The buildings are located at landscaped setbacks that vary from 1.3 feet to 9.3 feet along El Camino Real, 21.4 feet along the northern property line adjacent to single-family homes and 10 feet along the east property line abutting new townhome development. Alternating private drive aisles and common landscaped paseos separate the building structures.
The unit mix includes four floor plan types made up of two bedroom units with either two or two and one-half baths ranging in size from 1,320 to 1,520 square feet of living area and three bedroom units with two and one-half or three baths with 1,445 to 1,740 square feet of living space. Each unit has private outdoor space in the form of either an enclosed outdoor patio, balcony, or rooftop deck ranging in size from 60 to 338 square feet.
The proposed building architecture has a modern design aesthetic that incorporates a mixture of stone veneer, composite lap siding and stucco finish with metal trellis, entry canopies and balcony railings for textural and visual interest. The use of divided light windows and alternating use of materials provides a rhythmic cohesion and symmetry in the design. Offsets in the building elevations, recessed windows, and varied roof forms (e.g. flat and shed) provide breaks in mass and scale of the buildings and roof structures.
Circulation and Parking
The existing curb-cuts and sidewalks along the project frontage would be removed and replaced with a single curb-cut along Calabazas Boulevard for site access and separated sidewalks along both street frontages that include a landscape strip next to the curb and sidewalk behind. Sidewalks along the project frontages and interior to the site would provide pedestrian access to the site and link adjacent land uses.
The development provides a mix of at-grade garage parking arrangements that include one-car parking, side-by-side two-car parking and tandem two-car parking for a total of 110 covered parking spaces and 10 open surface parking spaces distributed throughout the site.
City of Santa Clara Page 6 of 10 Printed on 6/10/2022
powered by Legistar™
22-718 Agenda Date: 6/15/2022
As the use of the site is residential, the tandem parking garages are anticipated to be functional as residents would be familiar with their garage design and manage their household parking needs. The proposed conditions of approval require that every garage be accessible for parking at all times and that each be wired to allow for electrical vehicle charging.
Landscaping and Open Space
The project includes a landscape plan for the site and public right-of-way that incorporates a mixture of plant species and trees for planting the common areas and setbacks, as well as the planter strips fronting the project site. The 16 trees removed with demolition of existing conditions on-site would be replaced in excess of the 2:1 requirement with a total of 90 trees. A new eight-foot good neighbor fence is proposed along the north and east property lines of the project site abutting adjacent development.
An accessible recreation space for shared public use is proposed at the southwest corner of the project site fronting Calabazas Boulevard. This area totals 2,396 square feet and includes landscaped open space, shade trees, accent paving, bench, and bike racks for use by the residents and the community.
As a condition of project approval, an HOA is to be established and CC&R’s recorded to manage and maintain on- and off-site improvements (including buildings, street, utilities, landscaping and fencing) in good condition for the life of the project.
City Council direction on height from June 2021
As noted above, in June of 2021, while discussing the El Camino Real Specific Plan, the City Council gave direction to staff to limit the height of the proposed Residential Corridor designation to a maximum height of two stories. The Residential Corridor designation supports townhouse development as proposed under the current project and so the City Council’s intention through this direction is to limit the height of townhouse development to a maximum of two stories. While the proposed Specific Plan includes height restrictions along the interface between new development and the existing single-family residences immediately to the north of the project site, the City Council did not consider these sufficient to avoid a potential land use incompatibility and further expressed concerns about the height of new development along the corridor having too great of a visual impact.
Accordingly, The Council directed staff to limit heights on Residential Corridor sites to a maximum of two stories in the next version of the draft Specific Plan.
As the current project is a Planned Development Zoning proposal, the City Council has the discretion to impose a similar height limit of two stories upon the subject project. However, the applicant has proposed to develop up to three stories on the site, as is common with contemporary townhouse development, and a three-story development would be consistent with the current General Plan designation.
Draft Specific Plan Commercial Requirement
During the City Council hearing in June 2021, several community members expressed concern over the loss of commercial uses that would occur with the development of the Specific Plan. Preserving commercial activity along the El Camino Real corridor has been an ongoing community objective and the draft Specific Plan identifies several sites that would be subject to a ground floor commercial requirement within new mixed-use development, but this requirement would not apply to the subject City of Santa Clara Page 7 of 10 Printed on 6/10/2022

property.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
An Initial Study and a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) were prepared for the project by the environmental consultant firm David J. Powers & Associate, Inc., in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The MND and Notice of Availability were posted on the City’s website at
<https://www.santaclaraca.gov/our-city/departments-a-f/community-development/planningdivision/environmental-review-ceqa> and circulated for 30-day review on February 14, 2022 and ending on March 16, 2022, in accordance with CEQA requirements. The Planning Department received agency comments on the MND from Caltrans and Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority, and they are provided as Attachment 3 along with responses to comments for review.
The MND examined potential environmental impacts associated with project development and identified air quality, biological, cultural resources, geology and soils, and hazards and hazardous materials impacts that with incorporation of mitigation measures into the project would reduce all potential impacts to less than significant. A detailed discussion of the potential impacts and mitigation measures to be applied to the project are specified in the MND and would be implemented through project conditions of approval and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the proposed project.
CONCLUSION
The proposed project for the construction of a three-story residential development at 25 du/ac is consistent with the aforementioned General Plan land use policies, including the policies of the El Camino Real Focus Area, and the sites’ land use designation of Community Mixed Use, and therefore staff is recommending approval of the project as proposed by the Applicant. Nevertheless, the proposal is not consistent with the direction by City Council to lower the building heights within a future draft of the El Camino Real Specific Plan. A two-story residential project at this location would likely require reconfiguration of the site and building plans to achieve the proposed density of 25 du/ac and require a redesign and resubmittal for processing, review and subsequent action.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to the City for processing the requested application other than administrative time and expense typically covered by processing fees paid by the applicant.
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the City Attorney’s Office.
PUBLIC CONTACT
On June 2, 2022, the notice of public hearing for this item was posted in three conspicuous places within 300 feet of the project site and was mailed to property owners within 500 feet of the project site boundaries. Newspaper notice of this item was published in The Weekly on June 1, 2022.
Public comments have been received and are provided in Attachment 10 of this staff report.

WHEREAS, on June 2, 2022, the notice of public hearing for the June 15, 2022 Planning Commission meeting and the July 12, 2022 City Council meeting were posted for this item in at least three conspicuous locations within 300 feet of the Project Site and was mailed to property owners within a 500 foot radius of the Project Site boundaries; WHEREAS, on June 15, 2022, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing to consider the Project, MND, MMRP and all pertinent information in the record, including public testimony, at the conclusion which the Planning Commission voted to recommend that the City Council adopt the MND and MMRP, approve the rezoning to allow a 60-unit residential development consisting of 40 townhomes and 20 flats, and approve a Tentative Tract Map to subdivide the land into residential condominiums and a common interest lot to serve the development; and WHEREAS, on July 12, 2022, the City Councill held a duly noticed public hearing to consider the Rezoning application, at which time all interested persons were given an opportunity to give testimony and evidence offered in favor and in opposition to the Project.

1. That the City Council hereby finds that the above Recitals are true and correct and by this reference makes them a part hereof.
2. That the City Council hereby rezones the Project Site from Thoroughfare Commercial (CT) to Planned Development (PD) to allow a 60 condominium residential development consisting of 40 townhomes and 20 flats, as shown on the attached Development Plans and conditioned as specified in the attached Conditions of Rezoning Approval, incorporated herein by this reference.
3. Pursuant to SCCC Code Section 18.112.010, the City Council determines that the following findings exist in support of the rezoning:
A. The existing zoning is inappropriate or inequitable in that, the existing zoning for the Project Site does not allow residential development and creation of housing opportunities envisioned by the 2010-2035 General Plan. The Planned Development (PD) zoning would allow residential Resolution/ 3155 El Camino Real Residential Project Rezone Resolution Page 3 of 4 Rev: 11/22/17
development to implement the General Plan’s vision for the El Camino Real Focus Area more fully than the existing Commercial Thoroughfare (CT) zoning for the Project Site.
B. The proposed zone change will conserve property values, protect or improve the existing character and stability of the area in question, and will promote the orderly and beneficial development of such area in that the proposal redevelops two contiguous auto-oriented properties and visually improves the Project Site and surrounding neighborhood with physical and financial investment in the construction of a modern and visually aesthetic residential home ownership development with on-site parking, site improvements, landscaping, and streetscape enhancements.
C. The proposed zone change is required by public necessity, public convenience, or the general welfare of the City in that the proposed zone change provides residential development contemplated by the General Plan for the El Camino Real Focus Area that is designed to activate the streetscape, is pedestrian-oriented, supports public investments in existing and planned transit service along the El Camino Real transit corridor, and provides high quality homeownership opportunities to the City’s housing stock.
D. The proposed zone change would allow imaginative planning and design concepts to be utilized that would otherwise be restricted in other zoning districts in that the proposed zone change would allow flexibility in the development standards to construct for-sale condominiums that are compatible with existing and planned development within the El Camino Real Focus Area.
4. That based on the findings set forth in this resolution and the evidence in the City Staff Report, MND and MMRP, the City Council hereby rezones the Project Site to allow a 60 condominium residential development consisting of 40 townhomes and 20 flats, as shown on the attached Development Plans and conditioned as specified in the attached Conditions of Rezoning Approval.

PARKS & RECREATION
PR1. This memo assumes the Project is a subdivision and the Quimby Act provisions will apply. The project will generate an estimated 144 residents (2.4 persons/household x 60 units). Based on the Quimby Act standard of 3.0 acres/1000 residents | MFA standard of 2.6 acres/1,000 residents, the amount of public parkland required for this Project to mitigate the impact of the new resident demand is approximately
0.432-acres. The equivalent fee due in lieu of parkland dedication is therefore $2,668,080. Final calculations will depend upon the actual number and type of units and the mix of parkland dedicated and remaining fee due, at the discretion of the City.
PR2. Application for Credit. It is unlikely the Project could achieve the requirements needed to qualify for credit; therefore, the Project would not be eligible for 50% credit against any fees due in lieu of parkland dedication.

Said document shall be recorded along with the Title for each property with the Santa Clara County Recorder’s Office.
PARKS & RECREATION
PR1. This memo assumes the Project is a subdivision and the Quimby Act provisions will apply. The project will generate an estimated 144 residents (2.4 persons/household x 60 units). Based on the Quimby Act standard of 3.0 acres/1000 residents | MFA standard of 2.6 acres/1,000 residents, the amount of public parkland required for this Project to mitigate the impact of the new resident demand is approximately 0.432-acres. The equivalent fee due in lieu of parkland dedication is therefore $2,668,080. Final Conditions of Tentative Tract Map Approval Page 3 of 6
PLNB2020-14705 / PLN2020-14674 / CEQ2020-01080
calculations will depend upon the actual number and type of units and the mix of parkland dedicated and remaining fee due, at the discretion of the City.
PR2. Application for Credit. It is unlikely the Project could achieve the requirements needed to qualify for credit; therefore, the Project would not be eligible for 50% credit against any fees due in lieu of parkland dedication.
PR3. Dwelling Unit Tax. A dwelling unit tax (DUT) is also due based on the number of units and additional bedrooms per City Code Chapter 3.15. The Project mix includes 28 twobedroom units and 32 three-bedroom units for a total DUT of $1,360.
PR4. Calculations may change if the number of units change, if any areas do not conform to the Ordinance and City Code Chapter 17.35, and/or if the fee schedule for new residential development fees due in lieu of parkland dedication changes before this Project is deemed complete by Planning.

I'm writing in suppo1t of Tom Quaglia's proposal for the 2 and 3 sto1y townhome project at 3141-3155 El Camino Real (project number
(PLN2020-14674). Tom's 2 aud 3 sto1y proposal is more sensible for this site than the 4 and 5 sto1y proposals outlined in the Specific Plan, as this site sits directly adjacent to a neighborhood of single family homes. A tall development at this site, as well as the other sites on the North side of El Camino Real will subject adjacent homes to heavy shading and shadows in winter mouths (when sunshine is needed most), and reduced privacy for residents.
Shorter developments are more appropriate for these sites.
Thank.you,

Support letter for 3141-3155 El Camino Real PLN2020-
14674
Dear Ms. Fernandez,
Please share this letter with material presented at the Planning Commission meeting scheduled for June 15,
2022.
Usually I actively challenge proposals along the ECR
because they are too tall, too dense and not respectful to neighborhoods. There are some residents in Santa Clara
that do not want any more housing development in our
city. In my opinion that is not practical when so many
people need housing and the State is pushing all cities to increase housing opportunities.
Although we need to add housing, we need to do it
respectfully. This project is adding housing, including below 15% market rate opportunities and I think it is even more exciting that this project has for sale housing. I believe we have been building more rental units than for sale housing. I think we do need additional for sale housing, to give people in the City of Santa Clara the option to either rent or purchase.
In addition, the developer that wants to build this project has had his plans in for quite a while. I believe that it conforms to the existing General Plan. He has engaged, listened to and has the support of the neighbors. This developer has waited long enough. Let him proceed.
It is a sane plan with height and density considerations that respects neighbors. I can only hope that future developers along the ECR and more importantly Planning
Commissioners and City Council members also show the
same respect for current and future residents.
Regards,
Linda Zazzara

Dear Santa Clara Planning Commission,

YIMBY LAW
YIMBY Law is a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation, whose mission is to increase the accessibility and affordability of housing in California. YIMBY Law sues municipalities when they fail to comply with state housing laws, including the Housing Accountability Act (HM). As you know, the Area Planning Commission has an obligation to abide by all relevant state housing laws when evaluating the above captioned proposal, including the HM. Should the City fail to follow the law, YIMBY Law will not hesitate to ensure that the law is enforced.
The applicant proposes to create 60 new units, 40 three-story townhomes and 20 flats, with nine units designated as affordable. The application and approval also include a proposed Zone Change for density from CT to PD.
California Government Code § 65589.51 the Housing Accountability Act, prohibits localities from denying housing development projects that are compliant with the locality's zoning ordinance or general plan at the time the application was deemed complete, unless the locality can make findings that the proposed housing development would be a threat to public health and safety.
The City has erroneously determined that the applicant must submit a request for a rezoning, even though the HAA strictly prohibits local governments from requiring a rezoning when, as here, the general plan and zoning are inconsistent. In this case, the zoning is inconsistent with the general plan; while zoned for commercial use, General Plan policies allow an entirely residential use for sites along El Camino Real.
In 2018 AB 3194 set out to close a loophole that local governments have exploited to avoid cornpliance with the HAA: maintaining low zoning densities to force projects into discretionary rezoning processes. AB 3194 fixed this problem in two ways. First, this bill specifically prohibits local governments from requiring rezoning in cases where the zoning is inconsistent with the general plan. Second, in cases where a local government argues that zoning is consistent with the general plan, the bill requires local governments to facilitate the density allowed under the 1 general plan rather than the zoning. The amendment added Section (j)(4), which states:
For purposes of this section, a proposed housing development project is not inconsistent with the applicable zoning standards and criteria, and shall not require a rezoning, if the housing development project is consistent with the objective general plan standards and criteria but the zoning for the project site is inconsistent with the general plan. If the local agency has complied with paragraph (2), the local agency may require the proposed housing development project to comply with the objective standards and criteria of the zoning which is consistent with the general plan, however, the standards and criteria shall be applied to facilitate and accommodate development at the density allowed on the site by the general plan and proposed by the proposed housing development project. (Emphasis added.) The above captioned proposal is general plan compliant, and must be approved at the density allowed on the site by the general plan and proposed by the housing development project (PD), therefore, your local agency must approve the application regardless of whether a zoning change is granted, or else make findings to the effect that the proposed project would have an adverse impact on public health and safety, as described above. Should the City fail to comply with the law, YIMBY Law will not hesitate to take legal action to ensure that the law is enforced.
I am signing this letter both in my capacity as the Executive Director of YIMBY Law, and as a resident of California who is affected by the shortage of housing in our state.
Sincerely,

PLN2020-14674 3141-3155 El Camino Real
Support letter for 3141-3155 El Camino Real PLN2020-14674 Dear Ms. Fernandez,
Please share this letter with material presented at the Planning Commission meeting scheduled for June 15, 2022.
Usually I actively challenge proposals along the ECR because they are too tall, too dense and not respectful to neighborhoods. There are some residents in Santa Clara that do not want any more housing development in our city. In my opinion that is not practical when so many people need housing and the State is pushing all cities to increase housing opportunities. ,
Although we need to add housing, we need to do it respectfully. This project is adding housing, including below 15% market rate opportunities and I think it is even more exciting that this project has for sale housing. I believe we have been building more rental units than for sale housing. I think we do need additional for sale housing, to give people in the City of Santa Clara the option to either rent or purchase.
In addition, the developer that wants to build this project has had his plans in for quite a while. I believe that it conforms to the existing General Plan. He has engaged, listened to and has the support of the neighbors. This developer has waited long enough. Let him proceed.
It is a sane plan with height and density considerations that respects neighbors. I can only hope that future developers along the ECR and more importantly Planning Commissioners and City Council members also show the same respect for current and future residents.
Regards,
Linda Zazzara

1 Dear Ms. Fernandez,
My family lives at 2139 Stebbins Ave. Santa Clara, 95051. We heard about the proposed development at the comer of Calabazas Boulevard and El Camino Real. I'm writing this letter to support the proposed project.
As a neighbor and resident oftbe City of Santa Clara, we urge the Planning Commission and City Council to approve the project and bring much needed For-Sale housing to the city and om neighborhood.
The proposed 2 and 3 story For-Sale buildings are sensitive to the neighborhood, complies with the existing General Plan and·will provide a high quality architectural transition to the single family homes surrotmding this critical corner. Not everyone wants to live in 4, 5 aud potentially 6 story rental apartment buildings and this project provides a thoughtful alternative.
We support this project and hope it is approved as soon as possible.
Thank you,

On the other hand, the friends I know who are in the larger buildings seldom know their neighbors. They often rent from the leasing company and have no pride for the community since they do not own their units. They have high turnover and rarely are able to connect with the people in their building because of the sheer volume. Please decide on the right path forward for the neighbors and support PLN2020-1467 4 3141-3155 El Camino Real .

Re: PLN2020-14674
Request for Approval of Project at 3155 El Camino Real
Dear Ms. Fernandez,
As a born and raised Santa Clara resident for over three decades, I am in strong support of the proposed development project at the above referenced address on El Camino Real and Calabazas Blvd. Having grown up around this neighborhood, frequenting the businesses and restaurants, I can say that the project would be a welcome improvement to this part of the El Camino corridor.
There is an urgent need for housing, but a balance is needed to avoid over densification. The buildings proposed meet that balance by maintaining a 2 to 3 story height and a pleasing architectural style. They also provide a great option for affordable for-sale units which would open up more opportunities for homeownership, which has become increasingly difficult in the City of Santa Clara and surrounding areas.
I strongly support this project and urge the Planning Commission to approve as soon as possible.
Thank you,

Subject: Proposed Development at 3141 - 3155 El Camino Real Debby,
I am strongly opposed to this project. The city is letting these developers run haywire all for the all mighty dollar. El Camino is already congest ed enough without adding more problems to the area. When this was all started it was not supposed to take away retail space without having a place for it. We are having to drive farther and farther to shop. I understand progress I work in construction but this is getting rid iculous. Why not tear down the town hall and the fountain (that doesn't work most of the time) and put it there.

3077-3157 El Camino Real Resident Input
Hope you're doing well. I'm a 3-year resident of Tuscany Apartment s (3229 El Camino Real), across the street from the planned development at 3077-3157 El Camino Real. Not sure if you're the best person to reach out to, I wanted to share some concerns about how t his project affects the neighborhood's walkability, please let me know if there's someone better to reach out to.
It's my underst anding that the planned development will lead to the demolition of the existing Taj Mahal Imports grocery at 3109 El Camino Real. I wanted to inquire about whether any upcoming planned developments in the area include a replacement Asian grocery, and if not, express my concern at how Taj Maha l's demolition eliminates the walkability of the neighborhood.
I personally chose Tuscany apartments in part because of its closeness to nearby groceries, allowing me to buy cooking ingredients daily without use of a car or public transit. There are no other groceries within <15 minute walk of Tuscany apartments with fresh produce. Lucky and Han Kook are over 15 minutes walk to the west and require crossing the pedestrian-unfriendly Lawrence Expressway underpass, while Target is almost 30 minutes walk to the east. Target and Lucky, furthermore, are car-oriented and require passing uncomfortably large parking lots. It is extremely rare to have a small "neighborhood grocery" feeling in the south bay, and I can say very co nfidently that such an amenity has attracted me and other professionals to live in the neighborhood.
I'll also add, a large portion ofTuscany residents are of international origin and need an Indian grocery for their daily shopping needs, and the next closest Indian grocery is even further, 25 minutes, to the West.
I totally support increased high-density development along the El Ca mino corridor, but I hope this will not be at the expense of the groceries and restaurants that enable this neighborhood to be walkable. I am concerned that future housing development without walkable amenities will be counterproductive to both residents' and city's goals for the neighborhood.
Thank you for reading, I really care about this neighborhood and am eager for opportunities like this to contribut e to it s development.

1 Letter To The Planning Commission
(From Bowers Plaza Tenants. Address: 3075--3157 El Camino Real Santa Clara, CA 95051)
September 17, 2021
Dear Planning Commission of city of Santa Clara
Please accept my humble respects. I, Miten Patel, am writing this letter on behalf of all the "Bowers Plaza Tenants." I am the managei· and family member of Pani Puri Company located at above mentioned address.
First, we are writing to you as you are the first body of city committee that we were directed to by the project planner of the above address mentioned , We are requesting to delay the housing development project that is planned at the above mentioned address up to the year of 2023, along with some transitional support.
Transitional support is needed so the businesses that operate in Santa Clara are not lost. The livelihood of the employees that work at these establishment are not tarnished. The City of Santa Clara must adopt or develop a transitional agenda to help businesses, so there won't be any grudge towards the city and city members.
In such way work can flow flawlessly, in other words, all of the parties involved benefits! Or option two: If the council members votes to approve this project and if the tenants have to vacate the building, then at the least, ·we ask for is 12 months minimum of stay after the housing development project is approved. First reason for this is, there are five restaurants at this plaza, and it would take almost one year to build another facility for each ofus, as the planning and permitting process is lengthy and time consuming by the city of Santa Clara. And it would take even more resources, to redirect our current customer base to a new location. This request will give us time to relocate. Second, we cannot start the process of building another facility for ourselves because if the city does not approve the project then we would be either, stuck with two facility or may lose one of the investment unnecessarily. This is on top of the hardship that we are continually facing during these difficulties due to the pandemic, hyper inflation, and labor shortages. We all can understand and argue that this is a reasonable plea.
Secondly, we are the families and citizens of Santa Clara. Some ofus have been citizens of Santa Clara for over 30 years. And some of the businesses at bowers plaza have been in commission for over 25 years. Furthermore, we engage in other welfare activities such as: Books distribution, charity for autistic and disadvantage children's, to name a few. We cannot just give up everything because a developer wants to build a project and make money at the cost of others ruination or lively hood. Nor has the developers performed a single sacrifice for the city or the community. We need a justifiable process. What good is prosperity if the citizens are not happy? All of the parties should benefit! Moreover, the tenants of bowers plaza have been contributing to the city tax revenue through their hard work and money which benefits the city and the community. It is the tenants of this property that have been maintaining the property through their hard eamed money and also, engaging innumerable other businesses on maintaining this property. So, technically the tenants are the upholders of this property and partially this community, even though there is a separate owner. Toe tenants have invested large sum of capital through their hard earn services, so we should not lose that for the benefits of others.
Lastly, we ask that you take this matter very seriously, just like any other grave situation that you may have faced in your life time, but were denied of your sincere plea or request. All executives are great leaders and they have a great responsibility to uphold. The decision you make will not only affect the tenants but the whole community as well as your own humble self. Tiris is the time for you to justify what should be the correct decision.
Sincerely Yours

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on Consideration of Installation of Centerline Pavement Striping on Bray Avenue
COUNCIL PILLAR
Enhance Community Engagement and Transparency and Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
On August 25, 2020, the Department of Public Works, Traffic Engineering Division, received a request from Council, on behalf of community residents, to perform a traffic calming study for Bray Avenue between Scott Boulevard and Los Padres Boulevard related to resident concerns about vehicles traveling at high rates of speed. Staff communicated that due to COVID-19 implications traffic might be a little lighter than usual, but based on the continued interest in the study staff moved forward with it.
Bray Avenue is an east-west 34-foot wide, two-way, two-lane local residential street with a posted speed limit of 25 mph. This section of Bray Avenue is stop controlled on both ends where it intersects Scott Boulevard and Los Padres Boulevard. The street also intersects five residential streets between Scott Boulevard and Los Padres Boulevard. (Attachment 1, Location Map).
The surrounding area consists of single-family residential to the north of Bray Avenue and commercial to the south. The adjacent properties along Bray Avenue are approximately 70 percent residential in nature. There is a slight S-curvature to the roadway on the west end towards Los Padres Boulevard and there are also various time restricted parking areas along Bray Avenue adjacent to commercial properties and some residential properties.
This report provides an update on staff’s analysis of the situation and is divided into sections to provide the City Council with the following:
1) background information about the City’s Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program, 2) staff analysis of the situation based on recently obtained field data, and 3) possible alternatives for City Council discussion and consideration.
Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program Overview: On April 27, 1999, City Council approved the City’s Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program (NTCP) and guidelines. The NTCP was established to address and resolve local neighborhood traffic concerns in a systematic manner. The NTCP guidelines are utilized by staff when analyzing traffic calming requests submitted by residents. Traffic calming requests and concerns can vary significantly and the NTCP offers three levels of traffic calming measures (i.e. improvements), which are dependent on the results of studies, data collection City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 4 Printed on 7/8/2022

and analysis.
· Level 1: Education, public involvement, enforcement efforts, signing, striping, parking controls, and use of the City’s speed radar trailer.
· Level 2: Alterations of the neighborhood street which can include chokers, chicanes, gateways and rumble strips to deter or prohibit a specific action. · Level 3: Measures similar to Level 2 that may alter neighborhood streets, but these measures may also affect overall neighborhood access and require coordination for emergency response. Examples of Level 3 measures include speed humps, traffic circles, median barriers, forced turn channelization, and diagonal diverters.
It is important to note that based on the NTCP, Level 2 or Level 3 traffic calming measures require traffic volumes to be greater than 1,000 and less than 3,500 vehicles per day. Since the NTCP is a Council approved document, any deviation from it requires Council consideration.
Data Collection/Results: To complete the traffic calming study, staff collected speed and volume data along Bray Avenue from September 15, 2020 to September 22, 2020. A summary of the data results for the study area (Attachment 2) are shown in Table 1.

WB only 274 30.1
Based on the results of the study and the data collected, Bray Avenue had a relatively low volume of traffic and did not exhibit issues with vehicle speeds. However, despite this, staff still looked at opportunities to improve the section of Bray Avenue with Level 1 Traffic Calming Measures. It should also be noted that per the Council-approved NTCP, Bray Avenue does not meet the requirements for Level 2 or 3 traffic calming measures as the Average Daily Traffic Volume of 621 vehicles per day is not greater than 1,000 vehicles per day and the 85th percentile speed of 28.6 mph does not exceed 33 mph.
Related to the Level 1 traffic calming measures, staff looked at options pertaining to striping, roadway markings and signage. Staff studied the possible installation of centerline striping along the subject portion of Bray Avenue. Centerline stripes are used to delineate the separation of traffic lanes that have opposite directions of travel on a roadway and may be installed as two yellow stripes. The California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CAMUTCD) provides regulations and criteria related to installation of centerline stripes. Staff did not recommend the Level 1 traffic calming measure of a centerline stripe on the entire length of Bray Avenue from Scott Boulevard to Los City of Santa Clara Page 2 of 4 Printed on 7/8/2022

22-883 Agenda Date: 7/12/2022
Padres Boulevard as the Average Daily Traffic Volume recorded on Bray Avenue of 621 vehicles per day is not greater than the CAMUTCD guidance of a minimum of 3,000 vehicles per day and the 85th Percentile speed of 28.6 mph on Bray Avenue was found to be within 5 mph of the speed limit. There was also some concern that installing a centerline stripe the entire length of Bray could lead to increased speeds.
However, staff did analyze the potential for a centerline stripe on a curved portion of Bray Avenue and recommended that a centerline stripe be installed in that area. The area is along the “S” curve section of Bray Avenue on the west end towards Los Padres Boulevard and the striping was added to help delineate the lanes due to the curvilinear nature of that portion of Bray Avenue. Staff also recommended speed limit pavement markings to remind drivers of the speed limit along Bray Avenue.
In December 2020, the City completed the installation of centerline striping on the “S” curve portion of Bray Avenue and also installed “25” speed markings on Bray Avenue to remind drivers of the speed limit (Attachment 3).
DISCUSSION
Since installation of the “S” curve centerline stripe, the Department continues to get requests to reconsider the installation of a centerline stripe along Bray Avenue from Scott Boulevard to Los Padres Boulevard. As summarized in the background section, this requested striping does not meet CAMUTCD guidelines or the NTCP. However, with Council authorization staff can complete the centerline stripe as a Level 1 traffic calming measure.
Possible Alternatives for City Council discussion and consideration: At the request of Council, staff is providing this report for the Council to discuss the possible installation of a centerline stripe along Bray Avenue from Scott Boulevard to Los Padres Boulevard. It is important to note that although the traffic calming study completed in fall 2020 did not warrant the installation of Level 1, 2, or 3 traffic calming measures, traffic patterns and volumes may have changed since late 2020 due to the lifting of past COVID-19 restrictions, although it may be unlikely that the numbers would have increased enough to change the outcome of the study. Staff has not received any requests to redo the study and recent data related to Bray Avenue has not been collected. Below are possible alternatives for Council to consider related to the situation on Bray Avenue. · Direct staff to install centerline striping on Bray Avenue between Scott Boulevard and Los Padres Avenue. Staff estimates the work could be completed by September 2022. · Direct staff to complete an updated traffic calming study for Bray Avenue between Scott Boulevard and Los Padres Avenue based on updated traffic data information. The study would be initiated when school is back in session and it is estimated it could be completed by fall 2022.
· Take no action.

Memorandum
Date: July 7, 2022
To: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
From: James Sanchez, Interim City Attorney
Subject: Planning Commission Appointment of Mr. Ron Patrick This memorandum provides you background on your July 5, 2022 action to place the 030 request on this agenda for possible action.
Background
Mr. Ron Patrick, was appointed by the Council to serve on the Planning Commission at the June 6, 2022 Council meeting. At the request of Councilmember Becker, City staff investigated whether Mr. Patrick was an actual Santa Clara resident, as Mr. Becker remembered that Mr. Patrick was recently living in Mountain View. The City Clerk’s Office verified with the registrar of voters that Mr. Patrick changed his voter registration to a Santa Clara address, 5191 Lafayette Street, on May 3, 2022.
The property Mr. Patrick listed as his residence, 5191 Lafayette, is an industrial building constructed in 1979, and it is also the location of Mr. Patrick’s business. Although this property was previously zoned Light Industrial, in 2018 the City Council rezoned 5191 Lafayette to Transit Neighborhood (TN) as part of the Tasman East Specific Plan.
Multifamily residential uses are a permitted use in the TN zoning. SCCC §
18.25.030(a). That being said, no modifications have been made to the industrial building to convert it to a residential use (such as a kitchen, or a bedroom with a window). In addition, the use of the building for one “dwelling unit” would also not comply with the minimum density for residential units on the site, which is 60 dwelling units per acre. SCCC § 18.25.060(b). The property is 0.51 acres in area, and so a residential development on the site would need a minimum of 31 units in order to comply with the zoning. As such, the use of the property for a single dwelling violates the zoning ordinance.
The Finance Department verified that the property is using City utilities (electric, water), so it is likely occupied in some fashion. However, the establishment of a residential use on the property is also a violation of the California Building Code, as Mr. Patrick has not secured a residential certificate of occupancy.
