WHEREAS, in conformance with CEQA, the Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”) prepared for the Project was noticed and circulated for a 45 -day public review period from November 17, 2023 to January 2, 2024;
WHEREAS, in addition to the Project, the EIR studied the Reduced Office/Increased Housing Alternative, which assumed the development of 800 multi-family housing units in Area C (for a total of up to 2,600 housing units for the entire Project) instead of approximately 789,000 gsf of office/R&D space, but otherwise maintained all other land use and developments assumptions of the Project;
WHEREAS, the City prepared a Final Environmental Impact Report (“FEIR”), including Attachment 3 to the FEIR analyzing the Office/R&D – Residential Flex option for the Planned Development zoning, which would permit development of up to 800 additional residential units in Area C (for a total of 2,600 units for the Project), or a mix of residential and office/R&D uses in Area C, with a corresponding reduction in square footage of office/R&D uses and a proportional increase in deed- restricted affordable residential units in Area C (“Revised Project”), as shown in Exhibit “PD Development Plans: Revised Project” to Resolution No. 24- 9398; WHEREAS, on November 6, 2024, the Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the proposed rezone, at the conclusion of which, the Planning Commission voted to recommend approval to the City Council;

Resolution/Mission Point Project Rezone, Option B Page 3 of 5 Rev: 7/27/2023
WHEREAS, on November 19, 2024, the City Council held a public hearing to consider the proposed rezoning and related applications, at which time all interested persons were given an opportunity to provide testimony and the Council considered the information presented in the Staff Report, and all verbal and written evidence.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY OF SANTA CLARA AS FOLLOWS:
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 High-Intensity Office/Research and Development (“HO -RD”) to Planned Development ( “PD”) to allow the development of the Revised Project, as shown on the attached PD Development Plans for the Revised Project and conditioned as specified in the attached Conditions of Rezoning Approval, incorporated herein by this reference.
3. Pursuant to SCCC Section 18.14 2.040, 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 for mixed-use development. A PD zoning of the Project Site to allow mixed-use development would implement the General Plan’s Land Use and Housing goals and policies to provide housing in proximity to existing residential, neighborhood and community commercial uses, support services, local and regional transit facilities, outdoor open space and recreation areas.
//
//
//
//
//
//
Resolution/Mission Point Project Rezone, Option B Page 4 of 5 Rev: 7/27/2023
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 Project would redevelop underutilized industrial parcels to provide housing and commercial opportunities for the north Santa Clara Area, which support the City’s Housing Goals and assist the City in achieving Regional Housing Needs Allocation (“RHNA”) targets for production of affordable housing units as mandated by the State, and in accordance with the City’s Affordable Housing ordinance.
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 would allow for high density mixed- use development, public parkland, private open space, and community use. Construction of the Revised Project would contribute to the City’s housing inventory and would assist in production of housing units to achieve RHNA targets as mandated by the State.
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 such as increased building height and reduced building setbacks, in order to provide high density uses with private and rooftop common open space, and also provide community uses.
//
//
//
//
//
//

//
4. That based on the findings set forth in this resolution and the evidence in the City Staff Report, EIR and MMRP, the City Council hereby rezones the Project Site to allow redevelopment of the 48.6 acre site with up to 4,913,000 gross square feet of new development, including up to 2,600 units (up to 1,800 units in area D, approximately 1.8 million square feet of residential uses), and up to 800 units in Area C with corresponding reduction in office/R&D uses in Area C), up to three million square feet of office/research-and-development (R&D), approximately 100,000 square feet of retail, and approximately 10,000 square feet of childcare facilities, as shown on the attached PD Development Plans for the Revised Project and conditioned as specified in the attached Conditions of Rezoning Approval for the Revised Project.
5. Effective date. This resolution shall become effective immediately.
I HEREBY CERTIFY THE FOREGOING TO BE A TRUE COPY OF A RESOLUTION PASSED

3 Mission Point is envisioned as a vibrant, new
48.6 acres neighborhood with a diverse and
complimentary mix of uses that will enrich
connections between people, places, and
nature.
01.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
View from south of site looking north
01 I Introduction
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 01 I Introduction
4 A vibrant, urban neighborhood:
A convergence of commerce and culture - work
and play, walk and bike. Mission Point proposes a
wide array of amenities to make everyday life more
balanced and enjoyable.
Homes for everyone:
Includes a variety of homes designed to attract
diverse households -- single professionals, multi-
generational families, single-nesters, retirees, and a
wide range of income levels - including homes that
meet the City’s affordable housing requirements
and that provide deeper levels of affordability.*
A neighborhood that runs on leg power:
Our mixed use design envisions less driving
and more walking within our site, easy access
to light rail, a multi-use pathway, bike and
pedestrian zones, and seamless bike trail
connections to our neighbors beyond Mission
Point.
Parks and Open Spaces:
Significant public parkland and open space is
proposed within the site, including a central
spine that connects with the neighboring
Patrick Henry Drive Specific Plan (PHDSP) area
to the south -- ensuring that residents, workers,
shoppers, diners, visitors and our community
neighbors can easily access and use these
spaces.
01.2 THE VISION
Illustrative visualization of the proposed development
* Additional flexibility is provided to add additional homes, with a corresponding reduction in Office/R&D uses, while maintaining a vibrant, mixed use neighborhood.

Transportation
The transit options in the area include VTA (Old
Ironsides and Reamwood stations are located
next to the project site), ACE transit, future
BART connections, and Caltrain. The site is
also located near several trails that run along
Calabazas Creek and San Tomas Aquino Creek.
Figure 02-1_01 illustrates the transportation
options in relation to the site.
Existing Uses
The site is within walking distance of Great
America Theme Park, Levi’s Stadium, the Santa
Clara Convention Center, and Mission College.
The surrounding built environment also
includes office and light-industrial buildings,
and low-density residential neighborhoods.
Recreational Context
The Mission Point infill redevelopment project
transforms an existing surface parking lot
as an opportunity to restore the health and
resilience of the landscape, while providing
outdoor amenities for the local community.
Santa Clara is host to a variety of diverse and
linked open spaces, which encourage access to
nature and recreation and promote a healthy
community. Mission Point supports these goals
by providing a valuable connection between
the Tasman Drive Corridor and the future trail
network. See Figure 02-1_02 for recreational
features around the site.
Surrounding Developments
The City of Santa Clara General Plan, adopted
in 2010, identifies three specific plan areas
North of U.S. 101 for redevelopment as
high-density mixed-use neighborhoods: the
Tasman East Specific Plan Area, Patrick Henry
Drive Specific Plan, and Freedom Circle Focus
Area. Patrick Henry, Freedom Circle, Tasman
East, and a private development, City Place
(now named Related Santa Clara), have been
approved. Freedom Circle remains a future
focus area, although a portion of the area
has already been entitled for 1100 dwellings.
Refer to Figure 02-1_03 for the planned
developments and key destinations in the
surrounding area.
One of the key goals of these plans is to create
a sense of neighborhood by adding housing and
community amenities to existing high-intensity
office / R&D.

Existing Conditions
Under existing conditions, the site is zoned
as High-Intensity Office/Research and
Development (HO-RD) and is comprised of
four office buildings, surface parking lots, and a
roadway (Democracy Way).
Land Use Concept
The overarching land use concept for Mission
Point is to re-imagine an existing surface
parking lot as an infill development that brings
to life the project vision of a welcoming mixed-
use, transit-oriented development, offering
a vibrant environment in which to live, work,
socialize, and recreate.
The project proposes to demolish the existing
buildings, vacate and relocate Democracy
Way, and transform the site into a mixed-use
neighborhood, with a carefully considered
and optimally balanced combination of
complementary land uses.
Refer to Figure 02-2_01 for the proposed
General Plan land use designations for Mission
Point: Urban Center Mixed-Use and Urban
Center Mission Point. See Figure 02-2_02 for
the project’s proposed zoning.

MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 24 02 I Development Plan
Mission Point promotes an active pedestrian
realm with continuous access to open space
and public park.
The development will be divided by a staggered
grid which creates four distinct Program Areas
to support the desired mixed-use activity, as
shown in Figure 02-4.
This grid is structured with surrounded open
space at the perimeter of each area. A green
north-south axis creates an interconnected
public park that ties the eastern and western
portions of the site to Tasman Dr and the new
Santa Clara Trail. Through a sequence of areas
this public park connects people from the
Gateway Plaza Area, conveniently positioned
adjacent to the light rail stop, through the
Gateway Park Area and the large Central
Green Park Area to the South Park Area, which
connects to the New Santa Clara Trail Area.
To minimize vehicular infrastructure, while
allowing for efficient access for parking and
service, an access roadway will intersect the
site north and south, terminating at the Central
Green Park Area.

Mission Point will support a mix of
programmatic uses that will create a
harmonious neighborhood environment to live,
work, socialize, and recreate. The locations of
these various uses within the site have been
carefully considered to best fit within the
neighborhood context.
The area for work is more focused along the
Tasman Dr. corridor, which has access to transit
and adjacency to similar uses. The residential
program is at the southwest corner of the
site, adjacent to the planned Patrick Henry
Drive Specific Plan residential development,
and has immediate access to open space and
recreational amenities Under the Office/R&D –
Residential Flex option the residential program
may also be located in the southeast corner of
the site, which also has immediate access to
open space and recreational amenities.
Amenities will be located primarily at ground
level, and will create synergy between the live
and work project programs. Consolidating and
centralizing these amenities will also allow
visitors to the site to have an engaging and
pleasurable experience.

27 Development Transfer
To provide flexibility in responding to changing
market demands and ensure ongoing feasibility
through a sequenced development process,
density transfers of nonresidential maximum
floor area are allowed among Program Areas
A, B, C, and D (See Figure 02-7_02* for Area
identification). The developer may elect to
transfer up to 5 percent of the maximum
allowed floor area of each of the individual
Areas to one or more of the other Areas.
As a result, the total amount of development
in these Areas could increase or decrease
proportionally, while not exceeding the
maximum build-out for the entire project.
02.7 DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM AREAS
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 28 02 I Development Plan
02.8 PROGRAM LAYOUT AND ACCESS
Mission Point’s site organization will be
structured around a clear north to south axis of
pedestrian-oriented neighborhood uses and an
east to west multi-modal corridor, all designed
to provide a safe and livable community.
The Project’s ground floor will be populated
with a variety of uses and experiences to create
vibrancy throughout the day and evening
within Mission Point and its surroundings.
(Figure 2-8_02).
Anchoring public programming towards the
north end of the site adjacent to the Tasman
light rail corridor will attract users and will
help activate Mission Point’s vibrant retail-
oriented scene, including space for a grocery
and restaurants. As guests and tenants move
south through the park, retail will be right-sized
for shopping experiences that fit within the
context of this new neighborhood.
The heart of the project will be surrounded
by a mixture of retail, amenities, lobbies
and community space to provide a rich
ground plane. From there on, each individual
connection to the exterior of the site will be
focused on specialized uses, such as office
co-working spaces, lobbies, amenities, walk-
in residential units and service areas that will
activate these spaces throughout the day.
Access and circulation to and around Mission
Point varies depending on the mode of
transportation, but caters to a broad audience
as the internal paths and external connections
are designed to provide a safe and comfortable
environment for vehicles, pedestrians, and
cyclists.
• Anchoring vibrant programming towards
the north of the site, closest to the Tasman
light rail corridor, attracts users to the
retail-oriented ground plane. (Figure
2-8_02). Designated vehicular access
points will be provided close to the public
programming, such as restaurants, retail,
and childcare. Parking within structures
above and below grade are adjacent
to retail and the park program. (Figure
2-8_01).
• Tenants within the project will enjoy a
well-structured network of multi-modal
opportunities, including public transit, ride
share, shuttle, autos, cycling, and on foot
(Figure 2-8_03). Primary shuttle zones will
be hosted on internal private roadways.
• Dedicated access points for structured parking
will be located along the periphery of the site.
These parking structures will include seamless
interconnections between basement and
podium levels for quick ingress and egress.
Parking will include multiple points of entry
into adjacent buildings by way of connected
tunnels. A connection from the parking levels
to the podium level will provide an additional
arrival experience for tenants, with access
points around the podium shared open space.
• An internal podium and basement circulation
ring road will create efficient vehicular
movement, and allow for in/egress points from/
to every building to/from any surrounding
streets.
* Note that all figures in this section are illustrative, and are meant to provide general guidance and objective standards for final architectural design. Any stated quantity, dimension, or use placement is subject to change.

02.9 MOBILITY
The Mission Point project site is located along
the Tasman Drive corridor in Santa Clara. It is
bordered by Tasman Drive to the north, Old
Ironsides Drive to the east, Patrick Henry
Drive to the west, and the SFPUC’s Hetch
Hetchy Right-of-Way (ROW) to the south. The
site is within walking distance of California’s
Great America, Levi’s Stadium, the Santa Clara
Convention Center, Mission College, and many
existing employers in Santa Clara North. The
area north of U.S. 101 within Santa Clara is
rapidly transforming, with future developments
that include City Place and the Tasman East,
Patrick Henry Drive, and Specific Plan Areas
and the Freedom Circle Future Focus Area.
Transit Network
VTA bus and light rail services (Old Ironsides
and Reamwood light rail stations are adjacent
to the project site along Tasman Drive), ACE
commuter rail service, and the Capitol Corridor
regional rail service are all located in the
immediate vicinity of Mission Point. There
are additional bus connections to ACE and
Caltrain, although there are no direct public
transportation routes to existing BART stations.
The VTA light rail station on Tasman Drive will
provide a direct link to the upcoming Santa
Clara Bart station, which is scheduled to be
completed around 2030. (Figure 02-1_03)
An improved local mobility and circulation
network will support the use of existing and
future transit infrastructure, including VTA light
rail along the Tasman Corridor, bus transit along
Great America Parkway, and multi-use trails
along Calabazas Creek and the Hetch Hetchy
right-of-way. Transit options will connect
Mission Point residents and employees to local
amenities as well as regional destinations.
Shuttle Stop
A proposed on-site shuttle stop located on
Tasman Drive would provide connections to
other transit options such as ACE, Caltrain, and
BART.
Street Network
The site has great regional connectivity
to US 101 and SR 237, both of which have
interchanges at Great America Parkway and
Lawrence Expressway.
Bicycle & Pedestrian Network
The site is located near multiple existing and
planned recreational trails. Two of these trails
run along Calabazas Creek and San Tomas
Aquino Creek, while the John W. Christian
Trail runs through Sunnyvale, above the Hetch
Hetchy Aqueduct. The County of Santa Clara’s
Creek Trail Network Expansion Master Plan
calls for future extension of the Calabazas
Creek Trail over US 101 to Benton Street;
and the development of a Hetch Hetchy Trail
through Santa Clara, stretching from Calabazas
Creek to the Guadalupe River. A brand
new, quarter-mile stretch of trail has been
introduced to complement the proposed South
Park Area.
In addition, on-street bike lanes are located
on Great America Parkway, Tasman Drive,
and Mission College Boulevard. On-street
pedestrian facilities consist of sidewalks,
crosswalks, and pedestrian countdown signals
at signalized intersections.

SUBSTATION
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 34 02 I Development Plan
The purpose of TDM is to promote more
efficient utilization of transportation facilities
and to maximize the potential for sustainable
transportation usage, while minimizing
negative impacts on the community and
reducing congestion. The project will
implement a combination of services,
incentives, facilities, and actions to shift
employees, residents, and customers from
driving alone to using transit, carpooling,
cycling, and walking. The Project Sponsor will
prepare and submit a TDM Plan for the City’s
approval with the building permit application
for each phase of development.
Vehicle Trip Reduction Targets
The project, upon build-out, is projected to
reduce daily vehicle trips by at least 20% for
the residential area; and at least 25% for the
commercial area compared to the existing
countywide VMT.
This reduction reflects the combined effects
of the project’s location, diversity of land
uses, design, density, and TDM measures. The
reduction in daily vehicle trips is expected to be
approximately equal to the reduction in VMT.

02.10 TRANSPORTATION DEMAND
MANAGEMENT (TDM)
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 35 02 I Development Plan
TDM Measures and Strategies
The TDM measures to be implemented for
the site include design features, programs,
and services that promote sustainable modes
of transportation and reduce the number of
vehicle trips as well as VMT that would be
generated by the project. The project will form a
Transportation Management Association (TMA)
or participate in an existing TMA to oversee and
coordinate TDM activities of various employers
and residential communities on site. A TMA is a
non-profit, member-controlled organization that
provides transportation services in a particular
area.
The TMA may include other proximate
developments, employers, or residential
developments in nearby Focus/Specific Plan
Areas.
TDM measures will be described in detail in the
TDM plan, including the party responsible for
implementing each measure (e.g., developer,
tenant, TMA, City, etc.).
The specific elements of the TDM plan may
vary over time, with periodic changes in the
plan to reflect changes in the transportation
environment and new technologies. Examples of
TDM measures that may be included in the TDM
plan for the project include:
• Privately operated long-haul commuter
shuttle service for office workers with on-
site shuttle stops.
• Participating in city organized/operated
shuttle service to Caltrain and BART
stations with on-site shuttle stops
available to all site workers and residents.
• Transit subsidy for office workers.
• Rideshare matching program
• ‘Guaranteed ride home’ program for all
office workers.
• Preferential parking for carpools and
vanpools.
• Unbundled parking for market-rate
residential units.
• Participation in regional bikeshare and
scooter program, and/or establishment of
on-site bicycle and scooter fleet.
• Bike repair stations and ample bicycle
parking.
• Showers and lockers provided in office
buildings.
• Real-time transit information displayed on
screens throughout the site.
• On-site parking spaces reserved for
carshare service(s) (e.g. ZipCar or
equivalent provider).
• Dedicated curb space for ride hail and taxi
service passenger loading.
• On-site transportation coordinator.
• Website and marketing program to
disseminate information on commute
options.
• High speed internet infrastructure to
enable telecommuting.
• Distribution of a TDM information packet
to new employees and residents.
• On-site bicycle and pedestrian network
linking buildings to transit stations and
nearby trails.
Monitoring and Reporting
The TDM Plan will be monitored to measure
its effectiveness in meeting the vehicle trip
reduction target. The monitoring activities
will be managed by the TMA and will include
traffic counts at all site driveways, and a
survey of employee, resident, and customer
transportation mode shares and travel
preferences. Reports will be submitted to the
City of Santa Clara to document progress
towards achieving the vehicle trip reduction
target. The results of the surveys will be
used to design possible future changes to
the TDM plan (to add, intensify, or change
TDM measures). The TDM plan will explain
the monitoring and reporting process in
detail, including the location, duration, and
methodology of counts and surveys.

* Office/R&D – Residential Flex: Up to 2,600 units. If all units are constructed, 390 would be deed-restricted.
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 36 02 I Development Plan
Affordable housing is a high-priority goal of the
City of Santa Clara. Mission Point will add up to
1,800* new homes, or up to 2,600 new homes
with the Office/R&D – Residential Flex option,
that will help meet the City’s Regional Housing
Needs Assessment (RHNA). It is important
to note that the Project site was not included
in the City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element as a
housing opportunity site (as adopted on May 7,
2024), but the City’s current 6th Cycle RHNA
targets are based on an assumed development
on the site of 3 million sf of High Density
Office/R&D (the same amount as proposed by
Mission Point) so the new employee generation
will not contribute to the City’s future RHNA
targets, which makes the Project a net positive
to the City’s jobs/housing balance. The Project
has committed to meeting and exceeding the
City wide Affordable Housing Ordinance (1), as
02.11 AFFORDABLE HOUSING
follows:
Residential portion of Mission Point:
• 15% will be deed-restricted affordable
units. If 1,800* units are constructed,
270 would therefore be deed-restricted.
If all 2,600 units under the Office/R&D –
Residential Flex option are constructed,
390 would therefore be deed-restricted.
• The Project has voluntarily commintted
to a higher level of affordability than
is required by Santa Clara’s Citywide
Affordable Housing Requirements
by providing affordable rental prices
affordable to extremely low, very low,
low and moderate income households, or
a combination thereof with a maximum
average affordability level for affordable
homes of 80% of Area Median Income
(AMI) (the City’s baseline requirement is a
maximum affordability average of 100% of
AMI).
• In addition:
-Rental units: no rental affordable unit
will exceed a maximum of 100% AMI.
-For-sale units: no for-sale affordable
unit will exceed 120% AMI.
• The Project’s affordable housing program
will otherwise meet all other requirements
of the City’s Affordable Housing
Ordinance.
Non-residential portion of Mission Point:
Illustrative visualization of the proposed development
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 37 02 I Development Plan
• The affordable housing requirements will
be met through payment of the City’s
Affordable Housing Fee (“AHF”)
Implementation and Timing:
The specific mix and units for the residential
portion of the Project will be identified,
consistent with this Affordable Housing Plan,
as part of the application for Architectural
Review for the residential portion of the
Project. Affordable Housing Agreements (using
the City’s standard form and consistent with
this Affordable Housing Plan) will be entered
into with the City and recorded prior to the
certificate of occupancy for the residential
project.
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 38 02 I Development Plan
Construction of the project will include
consideration of the following overarching
objectives:
• Provide an orderly build-out of the
project based on projected market
demand and other factors, such as local
and regional growth, project financing,
and development of final construction
plans.
• Provide critical infrastructure
improvements, including several key
upfront infrastructure components,
which will also provide important
sustainability benefits. Most notable are
the SVP facilities and other site utilities.
It is anticipated that the project will be
constructed in response to market conditions.
There is no set development sequence, but
one potential order is shown for informational
purposes in Figure 02-12.
Other potential development orders, as well
as overlapping/concurrent development and
more sequential development, as well as the
Office/R&D - Residential Flex (Reduced Office/
Increased Housing Alternative), have been
studied in the Environmental Impact Report to
ensure the project can respond to the market,
while ensuring any necessary environmental
mitigations.

Nature and History as Inspiration
Mission Point has the potential to become one
of the healthiest and most beautiful workplace
environments in Silicon Valley.
The entire development, including the arrival
and gateway, the office and residential
buildings, and its parks, gardens and green
spaces, will inspire creativity and contribute to
overall wellness. The project draws inspiration
from Santa Clara’s rich history of agriculture
and land husbandry, in particular the cultivation
of fruit and nut orchards. A thoughtfully
designed and nature-inspired place can bring
joy, tranquility and delight, evoking a broader
sense of natural cycles of life for all who work
there.
The settings can have a dramatically positive
impact on health in terms of physical,
mental, and social well-being. Mission Point
has the opportunity to be a significant and
pioneering precedent for the next generation
of workplaces benefiting its immediate
neighborhood, the City of Santa Clara, and
workplaces around the world.

In order to create a thriving parkland that all
can enjoy, Kylli and Project Team have hosted
events and workshops, and conducted a public
online survey to invite the wider community
to contribute ideas, feedback and inputs to the
design process. The results of this survey are
available to the public through City of Santa
Clara Park Department. The diversity and
creativity of public participation continues to
be a key source of insight and priority-setting
for the design team. As the site is an important
“center” in the context of Santa Clara and
the Bay, it is crucial that any design bears the
hallmarks of its community.

three character areas: the Gateway Park Area
on the north serves as the gateway to the
Neighborhood Park, the Central Green Park
Area with a focus on the civic functions and
universal appeal, and the South Park Area with
a focus on the community- and family-oriented
activities.
While diversity of character and features is
important, there will be some shared programs
across all park zones including seating areas,
and family gathering space for different users.
Figure 03-5_03: Illustrative Park Areas Diagram
*Per the City of Santa Clara Parks & Recreation Department – Park Amenity & Design Standards, a neighborhood park is a park that is 1-15 acres in size.
See Park Design Standards in Chapter 05.17, on page 105.
Gateway Park Area
The Gateway Park in the north includes a
series of large outdoor rooms for active and
passive programs that will serve both the
general community and adjacent workplaces.
Art installations are some elements that could
anchor the northeast corner and welcome
visitors into the site. A network of pathways
connects the Gateway to the rest of the park
and offers a unique pedestrian experience.
Furnished outdoor rooms with shade trees and
lush vegetation create space for visitors and
office employees to take a break, go for a walk
and socialize.

MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 57 03 I Open Space Standards
Mission Point will be developed in response
to market demand and has no set order of
development. Dedication of parkland to the City
must be planned to align public safety with the
delivery of usable park without undue impacts
to construction (or construction impacts on
the completed public park). Under the City’s
Park Ordinance (Chapter 17.35 of the City’s
Code), parkland dedication requirements are
tied to residential development, so the delivery
and dedication of public park for Mission Point
will be triggered by the development of the
residential portion (Area D). In addition, to
facilitate delivery of usable public park, the
proposed public park area is anticipated to be
dedicated in three park zones: The Park Parcel
North, Park Parcel Southwest, Park Parcel
Southeast as shown on Figure 03-6_01. Each
parcel will include a minimum of four park
programs and will only be dedicated once
adjacent buildings are completed to ensure
each park parcel will not be disrupted by
construction. Each section of the public park will
function as a complete park on its own. Areas
of the park will likely be developed at separate
times. Together, it will be a single cohesive park
experience for the community. The park must
go through the public outreach process which
begins with the Parks & Recreation Commission
(PRC). The PRC is advisory to Council. It is
Council, through this process, that will approve
the final design.

03.9 PLANTING STRATEGIES
SFPUC Right-of-way
Patrick Henry Dr.
Specific Plan
Planting Character Zones
The rich history of the site and its context will
inform the planting design and the species
selection. In general, the planting palettes will
reinforce the three park areas by differentiating
color, character and mix. For example,
the vegetation for each park area may be
characterized by color such as: the “Silver and
White Garden”, the “Yellow Garden” and the
“Red and Green Garden”.
Regardless of the color arrangement, the Park
at Mission Point will incorporate a mixture
of native species and non-invasive, climate-
adaptive species to reflect the modern context
in which the project will sit. Trees will be
native or adaptive species and will be selected
for their suitability as urban plaza or urban
street trees. Selected species will thrive in tree
pit locations with minimum root damage to
sidewalks, and with minimal leaf litter or fruit
drop. Any non-native, introduced species will
have originated in similar coastal regions of the
world that enjoy a Mediterranean-type climate
such as that of the South San Francisco Bay
Area.
The placement of trees will meet utility
clearance requirements for all existing and
proposed utilities. Tree root barrier will be
provided where it is required by the City.

Principle among the goals of Mission Point
is the ability to inform and improve the
connectivity with and continuity of the
adjacent urban fabric. At the project perimeter,
Tasman Drive is converted into a verdant
boulevard with an active street wall. Patrick
Henry Drive and Old Ironside Drive will
have a similar treatment, but with a more
neighborhood feel.
Kylli Drive (West/East) will be the primary
neighborhood points of entry, linking the
surroundings directly with the parkland and the
development’s interior. Kylli Drive also leads to
underground parking facilities, providing visitor
and commuter access to the park and each
development area.

INTENT
Streets should be designed as complete
streets, and should serve as an extension of
the surrounding street grid and urban fabric.
They should provide safe access across the site
for residents, visitors, and workers, and should
accommodate a broad range of transportation
options. These options include an emphasis on
walkability and bikeability, while balancing the
space for cars, pedestrians, transit, and other
modes of transportation and movement.
GUIDELINES
• Drop-off areas for ride share and other
vehicles such as delivery and servicing
should be located in clearly marked areas,
with minimal impact on pedestrian or
bicycle infrastructure.
• Landscaping such as planted medians
and bulbouts should be considered
for passive storm water management
opportunities.
• Street trees shall be provided at intervals
consistent with SCCC section 18.36.060
[Special Landscape Requirements] Street
trees will not be provided within utility
easements.
• Bicycle lanes should be constructed
consistent with the City of Santa Clara
Bicycle Plan Update. As of 2018, such
lanes are required to be constructed as
Class II Bicycle lanes or better.
*Location of Property Line (PL) will vary
* *
04.2 STREET TYPOLOGIES
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 70 04 I Streets and Streetscapes
STANDARD
• All streets shall generally be designed
to the specifications detailed in Figure
04-2_01.
• The Pedestrian Clear Area shall remain
free of any street furniture, lighting,
planting, or any other permanent or
temporary obstructions.
• A minimum 26’ clear width must be
maintained on any streets or portion
of streets requiring emergency vehicle
access.

71 Tasman Drive is the public view corridor and
multi-modal access to the interior of Mission
Point. As such, it should communicate that the
new development is a comfortable place to live,
work and to be outdoors. The Gateway Park Area
will be allocated on the closest corner to the VTA
light rail with major retail tenants overlooking
this high movement intersection. The design
guiding principle of streetscapes along Tasman
Drive is the creation of continuous pedestrian
driven areas, in the form of wider and shaded
walkways able to accommodate multiple modes
of transportation (bike, car, bus and train).
Tasman Drive includes four to five lanes of traffic,
including two lanes in each direction and one
lane for controlled left turns at the Patrick Henry
and Old Ironsides intersections. Dividing both
vehicular directions is the VTA light rail right
of way that changes width to accommodate
multiple lines and stations. A continuation of the
existing protected bike lane west to east will be
accommodated within the right of way. A deep
profile drop-off area may be placed within the
center of the project frontage and separated by a
pedestrian or green buffer to minimize possible
conflict from drop offs with other infrastructure
such as bike lanes and road intersections.

72 Kylli Drive East and West entry ways are the
vehicular gateway to the interior of Mission
Point. Key to the design is the creation of
comfortable pedestrian and bike paths in the
form of continuous green buffers to connect the
surrounding neighborhood to the Central Green
Area, the civic heart of the project.
Each entry way includes three lanes of traffic,
with additional areas for drop-off and short
term parking at the sides. These lanes provide
access to the parking garages within each area,
public access ramps for underground parking
for visitors and drop-off areas. The curb to curb
dimensions allow for any emergency vehicle to
access, turn and drive through the project to
access any podium level building footprint. The
sidewalks along building frontages will include
enough space for street life and green buffers
that provide shaded spaces, a protected bike lane
between tree canopies, and on-street parking.

Development
The western boundary of Mission Point
represents a continuation of Patrick Henry Drive,
as it extends north beyond the boundary of the
Patrick Henry Drive Specific Plan (PHDSP) area.
Future development shall remain consistent with
the streetscape design standards established in
the PHDSP .
This street has a narrow right-of-way and curb-
to-curb width that will allow a road design to
accommodate vehicle traffic, protected bicycle
facilities, street trees, creative streetscape
design that enables street activation, and
quiet landscape areas for bio-retention along
the building frontages. To reduce circulation
disruption, vehicular drop-off areas for office
and residential access will be minimized and
consolidated.

MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 77 05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
Overview
Kylli envisions Mission Point as a thriving
mixed-use neighborhood that facilitates
everyday connections between people, places,
and nature. This document establishes criteria
and standards to govern development, in
accordance with the City of Santa Clara’s
vision. The standards are further designed to be
complementary with the nearby PHDSP .
Design Standards are organized into the
following sections:
Intent
Describes the principal goals, objectives, and
rationale of each topic, as well as alignment of
specific features or provisions with the project
vision, principles, and design.
Guidelines
Preferred specifications or requirements that
are inherently qualitative, and therefore require
interpretation. Guidelines are typically written
as “should” or "may" statements.
Standards
Mandatory, objective, and quantifiable
specifications or other requirements applicable
to the project. Standards are typically written
as “shall” or "must" statements.
Organization
Design standards are integrated throughout
this document as a complementary component
of the overall design vision and narrative. The
topics are not exhaustive, and are intended to
provide a degree of specificity and flexibility
to guide design and development, and better
support the project goals.
The topics addressed throughout the document
fit broadly into three categories:
• Site Design, which engages with the
project area as a whole and establishes
flexible development areas.
• Building Design, which regulates
individual building form, including height
and bulk.
• Open Space, which regulates private and
public open spaces.
Where standards are provided in this
document, they control over any inconsistent
standards in the City of Santa Clara Code
(SCCC). The City’s Zoning Code applies to this
Planned Development zone to the extent not
expressly inconsistent with the express terms
and standards in this PD Zoning. The City of
Santa Clara Parks & Recreation Department’s
Park Design & Amenity Standards must be
followed for any fee credit.
05.1 INTRODUCTION
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 78 05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
A RANGE OF BUILDING TYPES
Mission Point will provide a unique mix of
building types and massing to ensure that
urban character and local identity accompany
the efficiencies and sustainability benefits
inherent to a compact urban neighborhood
engaging with its existing surrounding.
INTERCONNECTED
Working as a whole, the development will
include interconnected buildings at multiple
scales. Design elements may vary including
pedestrian bridges, podium parks, terraces,
balconies, and more.
SUSTAINABLE BY DESIGN
Mission Point’s built environment will aim to
comply with high standards in sustainability,
from the choice of facade materials to the
implementation of energy consumption. Each
individual building will be thought of as a living
organism, able to evolve and give back to its
ecosystem.
INCLUSIVE
Beyond being a mixed use development, each
Area in the development will embody an
inclusive community approach of welcoming
all types of users--from flexible interconnected
office floor plates with high amounts of exterior
spaces to a wide range of residential unit types
for all stages in life.
05.2 SITE DESIGN PRINCIPLES
BUILDING HARMONY
Create a family of places and experiences that
follow a distinctive urban form and support the
range of public open spaces.
ACCESS TO NATURE
Building forms will host a range of outdoor
spaces including balconies, terraces, and
rooftops to allow for seamless connections
with the outdoors.
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 79 05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
05.3 MASSING AND ARCHITECTURE
To achieve a pedestrian-friendly environment,
massing and facade details can be controlled in
a way that provides visual interest and makes
a comfortably-scaled environment. Proper
articulation of a building’s facade will support
the richness and variety of the architecture of
Mission Point.
Building scale, massing, and design all play a
key role in defining the aesthetic and physical
quality of a built structure. Buildings should
respect the character of the surrounding
existing buildings with regards to height, scale,
style, and materials.
Building form, mass, and scale should also be
designed to improve the pedestrian realm and
experience, and create transitions to adjacent
lower-density development and other existing
public areas.

INTENT
Building heights in Mission Point should be
cohesive and complementary of the uses and
activities occurring at both the ground plane and
upper building levels.
GUIDELINES
• Building height should vary across the site
to create a visually engaging environment,
making use of different tower heights to
pair with consistent podium and ground
floor spaces.
STANDARDS
• All building heights shall be consistent
with the definition of Height (Structure) in
SCCC section 18.160.080. ["H" Definitions]
• All building heights shall be limited to the
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
requirement.
• All buildings shall generally adhere to the
heights identified in Figure 05-4_01.
05.4 BUILDING HEIGHTS
* Approximate heights are based on the definition of Height (structure) in SCCC section 18.160.080, where “Height is the vertical distance from the 'grade' to the highest point of the coping that defines the volume of the building of a flat roof, or to the deck line of a mansard roof, or to the highest gable of a pitched or hipped roof.” The definition of Grade, Finished is "The surface of the ground or pavement at a stated location as it exists after completion of a project." SCCC section 18.160.070 ["G" Definitions].
** All building heights (including antennas, chimneys, elevators, radio towers, mechanical appurtenances, parapets, and screens) are subject to Federal Aviation Administration height restrictions.

05.5 SETBACKS
The setback area is defined as the distance a
structure, parking area, or other development
feature must be separated from the property
line.
INTENT
Setbacks create a transition space between
the public and private realm. The goal is to
encourage people to occupy and enliven the
setback areas and help define the physical
and social character of Mission Point. Where
privacy is preferred, setback areas can be
landscaped and screened with planting.
GUIDELINES
• Landscaping in setback areas should
incorporate water intelligent and climate-
ready plants, and also incorporate best
practices in sustainable storm water
management.
• Improvements to setback areas within
Silicon Valley Power (SVP) easements
should comply with applicable SVP
guidelines.
• There should be a minimum 10-foot
setback between the public park and the
private buildings.
STANDARDS
• All buildings shall adhere to setback
requirements as identified in Figure 05-
5_01.
• Active uses that may encroach upon the
setback area include building terraces,
balconies, ramps, planters, fences, retail
stands, outdoor seating, and dining
places, or similar active uses, to engage
the edge of the public realm and create
active frontages.
• Buildings within Mission Point shall
comply with requirements detailed in
SCCC Section 18.30.050 [Setbacks -
Measurement and Requirements] minor
modifications may be granted pursuant
to SCCC Chapter 18.124.

MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 83 05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
INTENT
Step backs serve to reduce the perceived mass
of buildings above the street wall in order to
retain adequate solar access, maintain sense
of openness between buildings, mitigate
wind effects, and reinforce the ground-level
experience.
GUIDELINES
• Step backs should be integrated into
building design to ensure that building
heights respond to the character of
the areas adjacent to Mission Point,
while accommodating high-density
development.
• Average step back of approximately 5' for
a minimum of 50% of all public frontages.
STANDARDS
• For non-residential buildings longer than
330', articulation shall be provided to
break the massing.
• For residential buildings (including
mixed-use), provide step backs for
buildings greater than 85' of occupied
height.
• Balconies, recesses, and other private
open space uses such as terraces shall be
allowed in the step back area.
05.6 STEP BACKS
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 84 05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
INTENT
Mission Point’s street design provides a
welcoming, comfortable, and safe environment for
walkers and cyclists, while efficiently circulating
necessary vehicle traffic. The plan categorizes
streets and other transportation infrastructure
based on their function and adjoining land uses to
maintain a balanced multi-modal transportation
network.
GUIDELINE
• The streets within the site should be
designed as complete streets. Complete
Streets, as defined by the Santa Clara
Valley Transportation Authority, are “roads
designed with all users in mind: pedestrians,
cyclists, motorists, and public transit riders
of all ages and abilities.” [https://www.vta.
org/programs/complete-streets-program]
STANDARD
• All roadways shall be constructed to
accommodate a variety of vehicles and shall
take into consideration service, delivery, and
emergency vehicles, as well as anticipated
vehicular traffic volumes appropiate to the
location and function.
• Pedestrian and bicycle connections within
and around Mission Point shall be safe and
convenient.
• The Project design shall comply with the
current version of the City Complete Streets
Policy.

11 Bicycle Plan Update 2018 City of Santa Clara
Santa Clara Today
Class II Bicycle Lanes
Class II bicycle lanes are striped preferential lanes on the roadway for one-way bicycle travel. Some bicycle
lanes include a striped buffer on one or both sides
to increase separation from the traffic lane or from
parked cars, where people may open doors into the
bicycle lane.
There are currently 34 miles of Class II bicycle lanes
in Santa Clara.
Class III Bicycle Routes
Class III bicycle routes are signed routes where people bicycling share a travel lane with people driving.
Because they are shared facilities, bicycle routes
are most appropriate for low-speed and low-volume
streets. However, Santa Clara County classifies the
County expressways as Class III bicycle routes, with
bicycle travel generally expected in the shoulder.
Although there are bicycle routes on some of the
expressways, the expressways should only be used by
bicyclists with advanced skills. Some Class III bicycle routes include shared lane markings or “sharrows”
that recommend proper bicycle positioning in
the center of the travel lane and alert drivers that
bicyclists may be present.
There are currently 24.5 miles of Class III bicycle
routes in Santa Clara, which includes bicycle routes on expressways.
Bicycle Plan Update 2018 City of Santa Clara 12
Santa Clara Today
Class IV Separated Bikeways
Class IV separated bikeways are on-street bicycle
facilities that are physically separated from motor
vehicle traffic by a vertical element or barrier, such
as a curb, bollards, or vehicle parking aisle. They can allow for one- or two-way travel on one or both sides
of the roadway.
No Class IV separated bikeways exist in Santa Clara.
Barriers to Active Transportation
Two freeways cross the City: Highway 101 runs east-
west through Santa Clara and State Route (SR) 237
runs east-west along the top border of the city. The
Caltrain rail line also runs east-west through the
City, south of Highway 101. San Tomas Expressway/
Montague Expressway runs north-south through the
center of the city, Lawrence Expressway runs along
much of the western border of the city, and Central
Expressway runs east-west through the city south of
Highway 101. These transportation features create
challenges for people walking and bicycling in some
places, as crossings are limited.

Figure 05-8_02: Class II and IV Bicycle Lane Descriptions Images and text from “City of Santa Clara Bicycle Plan Update 2018.” *Based on SCCC, § 18.38.050
^The minimum number of required long-term bicycle parking spaces is 4, except when the code would require 1 or less, in which case, 2 bicycle spaces must be provided
**Class I Bicycle Parking facilities may also include stacked bicycle racks located within secure lockers, rooms with key access for regular bicycle commuters, valet, or check-in parking, and/or guarded parking areas.
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 88 05 I Design Guidelines and Standards

GUIDELINE
• All building services (trash*, deliveries,
loading, etc.) should be centralized within
each podium.
• Where possible, service zones should
be shared across multiple buildings and
programs.
• Strategies such as scheduling deliveries,
off-peak hour deliveries, and right-sizing
freight vehicles should be considered for
residential and commercial tenants.
STANDARD
• Service access shall be provided for each
individual building.
• Provision of internal loading bays shall
adhere to the requirements in Figure 05-
9_01.
• Internal loading facilities shall generally

NEIGHBORHOOD CONTEXT
Buildings should be scaled to respond to their
context by sensitively and positively addressing
the scale and massing of their adjacent
neighbors and the development trends of the
region.
MASSING VARIATION
Varied building heights are encouraged as they
provide visual interest and suggest the appearance
and scale of smaller structures.
MASSING TRANSITIONS
In addition to the step backs required for
residential buildings in Section 05.6, step backs
in all types of buildings are encouraged to
be used as a means of transitioning building
heights.
FACADE RHYTHM
Complementary textures, colors, materials,
and distinctive architectural treatments should
alternate to add visual interest, while avoiding
dull and repetitive facades.
ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS
Architectural details should be used to enhance
the scale and interest of a building’s facade
by breaking it up into distinct planes that are
offset from the main building facade.
BALCONIES
The use of balconies help break down the scale
of the facade and allow for usable outdoor
space, which enhances wellness.
05.10 BUILDING DESIGN PRINCIPLES
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 96 05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
Building modulation along the facade can be
achieved using any application of change in
plane. Means of applying a change in facade
plane include, but are not limited to:
1. Contextual Response
Buildings can be scaled to respond to their
context by sensitively and positively addressing
the scale and massing design, relative to
neighboring parcels.
2. Change in Plane
• Architectural details, Structural
Expression
• Volumetric Notches (balconies)
• Massing Transitions: Volumetric recesses
(Step backs)
• Facade Rhythm
3. Change in Facade Systems
Long facade systems may be divided into
smaller components through variation in
materials, articulation, fenestration, and
so forth. Complimentary textures, colors,
materials, and distinctive architectural
treatments should alternate to add visual
interest, while avoiding repetitive facades.
INTENT
To achieve a pedestrian-friendly environment,
massing and facade details can be controlled to
provide visual interest and makes a comfortably
scaled environment.
Building Modulation (or “Modulation”) is
necessary to achieve visual interest, rhythm,
and human-scaled dimensions. Modulation can
also be used for functional purposes, such as
producing recesses that can be used as patios
or balconies.
GUIDELINES
• Variation in the use of colors, materials,
fenestration patterns, and other
architectural elements should be
considered in building design.
• Low-rise buildings, or the lower portions
of buildings such as the podium levels,
should be broken up into smaller
massing by utilizing major breaks in the
building facade and roof line. A change
in colors or materials may also create
greater visual variation.
• Tall buildings and tower tops may be
articulated in a manner that provides
visual interest and confers visibility
and distinctiveness when viewed from
outside the project area.
• Blank walls or long spans of non-
transparent facades should be avoided.
05.11 MODULATION AND FACADES
Facade Design Concepts
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 97 05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
• Facades should be glazed using materials
that consider energy performance.
Glazing should be generally light
in color and of low reflectance to
achieve a balance of daylighting and
energy performance, and also provide
transparency and engagement between
interior and exterior spaces.
• Glazing selection should consider bird
safety and other environmental factors
STANDARDS
• Buildings shall adhere to the modulation
standards identified in Figure 05-11_01.
• Major breaks shall be provided based
on the streetwall modulation intervals
identified in Figure 05-11_01. Break shall
generally occur along both the building
facade and the roof line.
• Where mixed-use buildings feature both
residential and non-residential uses
on the ground floor, the ground floor
transparency requirements shall only
apply to the non-residential spaces. Non-
residential transparency requirements
shall also apply to those areas associated
with residential uses such as a private
gym or leasing area.

05.12 OFFICE DESIGN
INTENT
Office buildings should have flexible and
technologically advanced working and
meeting environments that are engaging,
healthy, comfortable, durable, aesthetically
pleasing, and accessible. They should be
able to accommodate the specific space and
equipment needs for various meeting sizes, or
of an individual tenant.
GUIDELINES
• Office buildings should have lobby access
adjacent to public outdoor spaces, and be
clearly visible during day- and night-time
hours.
• Multi-level interconnections should
be considered to connect the ground
floor and podium levels to the street.
Interconnections may include bridges and
terraces, that allow for a mixture of users
to engage with other buildings.
STANDARDS
• Office buildings shall provide 50 percent
visual transparency along all building
facades. Where mixed-use buildings
feature ground floor retail, the ground
floor requirements shall apply, as shown
on Figure 05-11_01.
• Office buildings shall have a primary
entrance design that strengthens the
public realm, supports office activity, and
creates pedestrian comfort and safety.
• Office buildings shall have one main
entrance for staff, visitors, and the public,
including an entry lobby that is inviting,
well-lit and secure.
Office Design Concepts
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 99 05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
05.13 RESIDENTIAL DESIGN
INTENT
Residential buildings provide a large number of
homes and an efficient use of land area, helping
to focus density and create valuable open space
for all residents and neighbors.
GUIDELINES
• Residential buildings should be designed to
convey individual residential uses. Building
architectural features may be layered to
emphasize certain features of the building
such as entries, corners, and organization
of units.
• Strong relationships between the private
and public realms, especially at the podium
level, may be established by locating decks,
porches, and patios where they can face
dedicated public outdoor spaces.
• Tenant amenity areas, such as entry lobby
or community space, should have direct
access from the public realm.
• Through-block connections are encouraged,
as they provide alternative pedestrian
routes through the building, especially for
children, and connect to public amenities
and open space areas.
• Building facades should be articulated to
express the scale of individual residential
units and to reduce the apparent mass of
the overall building.

05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
• The base of buildings should incorporate
elements that reflect a pedestrian scale
and include active ground floor uses, such
as lobbies that are well lit and inviting.
• Ground-floor residential uses may be
raised above adjacent sidewalks, provided
accessibility issues are adequately
addressed.
• Ground floor residential frontages
should be designed where possible to
activate the transition space between
private living areas and the public realm.
This may be accomplished by orienting
primary home entries on the ground floor
towards adjacent public amenity areas,
open spaces, lanes or public rights-of-
way.
STANDARDS
• All ground floor residential entries, such
as stoops, terraces, or stairs, shall meet all
universal accessibility standards.
• As used in this document, a “townhome”
is a one-family dwelling that is a part of a
group of three or more such units separated
by a common party wall, with each unit
having their own front entrances.
• As used in this document, an “additional
multifamily unit” is a condominium, coop
or apartment unit lacking its own front
entrance.
• Townhomes are only permitted as follows:
•Townhomes designed and integrated
as part of a multi-family building in
which additional multi-family units are
included above the townhome unit
(entire building must achieve a minimum
60 du/ac); or,
• Townhomes integrated as part of a multi-
family building without additional multi-
family units above, not to exceed 25% of
the buildable land area for area C and D (in
Area C, if residential is constructed, and
in Area D, entire building must achieve a
minimum of 60 du/ac).
• The following are prohibited: (1) Standalone
townhomes without additional multifamily
units, (2) and single family detached units,
and (3) duplexes.
• Area D must have a minimum aggregate
residential density of 60 units per acre. Based
on the 13.7-acre size of area D, this yields
820 total residential units in Area D. This is
the minimum number of units the Project
must achieve within Area D. If the residential
units are constructed under the Office/R&D
– Residential Flex option, Area C must have
a minimum aggregate residential density of
60 units per acre. Based on the 12.7-acre size,
if all of Area C were to be developed with
residential, this yields 782 total residential
units in Area C. This is the minimum number
of units the Project must achieve within Area
C, if residential units are constructed on the
entirety of Area C under the Office/R&D
– Residential Flex option. If, for example,
a 1-acre portion of Area C were to be
redeveloped with residential, it would need to
yield a minimum of 60 units. Concurrent with
any Architectural Review Permit submittal, the
project shall demonstrate how the minimum
number of units will be achieved. If future
projects would need to have an average
density of more than 60 du/acre to reach the
minimum, a density study must be submitted
concurrent with the Architectural Review
Permit submittal demonstrating how the
minimum number of units will be achieved for
Area D. The City may deny any Architectural
Review Permit based on a finding that approval
would make achievement of residential unit
minimums infeasible.

05.14 GROUND FLOOR
The ground floor is where the activity of the
building meets the public realm. The ground
floor plays a critical role in shaping the
pedestrian experience. A vibrant ground floor
experience is dependent upon many different
uses, varied to provide a nuanced and unique
pedestrian street experience.
INTENT
Ground floors allow buildings to maintain
an active presence at the pedestrian level by
providing a transitional space between the
public and private realm. Ground floors play
an important role in facilitating internal and
external circulation, and create space that
engages building occupants with the public
realm.
GUIDELINES
• Ground floor retail frontages should
be expressed with a finer grain of
architectural detailing and facade
treatments that are scaled to human
activity on the street. This may include
architectural elements such as canopies,
awnings, overhangs, projections, and
recesses.
• Most of the ground floor between the
heights of 4 and 8 feet for residential uses
and 0 to 12 feet of non-residential uses
should be devoted to transparent windows
and doors to increase visual access, and
allow maximum visual interaction between
the sidewalk areas and the interior spaces.
• Active uses should be prioritized on the
ground floor of buildings with designated
retail area, excluding spaces for parking
and loading access, building egress,
building operations, and access to
mechanical systems.
• Exterior finishes, particularly in the
setback area, entry lobbies, and other
ground floor spaces with public access
should be carefully selected to maximize
engagement between the building and
the abutting street, path, or public space.
The use of dark or mirrored glass is
discouraged.
• Tenant signage should be appropriately
scaled to fit the storefronts, with
tenant branding elements reasonably
accommodated. Signage should be
coordinated with the overall building and
storefront design, with regards to colors,
symbology, and typography. Interior-lit
box type signage is discouraged. (Refer to
subchapter 05.18 for Signage standards)
• Loading, service, or storage facilities
should not negatively impact the
pedestrian realm, and where feasible
should be located inside the building
or along facades other than the
primary building frontage where the
main entrance is located. Landscaping
or art may serve as an effective
screening element. Any screening
should be consistent with transparency
requirements. (Figure 05-11_01).
Ground Floor Concepts
MISSION POINT BY KYLLI I City of Santa Clara PD Rezoning Application 102
05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
STANDARDS
• Certain activities and uses associated
with ground floor activity may encroach
upon the front setback area, including
but not limited to: outdoor seating and
dining, architectural elements such
as canopies and awnings, landscape
planters, temporary signage. These
uses may not encroach upon the clear
pedestrian path area of the abutting
sidewalk or path.
• All ground floors shall provide
unobstructed access to the abutting
sidewalk, path, or right of way. Stairs
or ramps associated with ground floor
entryways must satisfy all accessibility
requirements.

05 I Design Guidelines and Standards
INTENT
Roofscapes are important aesthetic aspects
for architectural and community character and
quality, and they should be addressed as part of
the overall design.
GUIDELINES
• Rooftops should be designed to support
active and passive sustainability
strategies. Buildings should provide
generous common spaces, where
possible, including habitable rooftops
and/or podium courtyards that invite use
by all residents/tenants in the building.
• Rooftop mechanical equipment should
be integrated with the massing and
appropriately screened. The equipment
should be organized and designed as
a component of the roof scape, and
not appear to be a leftover or add-on
element.
• Building tops should be articulated in
a manner that provides visual interest
and confers visibility and distinctiveness,
when viewed from outside the project
area.
• Solar panels and localized photovoltaic
systems should be strategically placed on
roofs to maximize sun exposure.
STANDARDS
• All roofs shall be designed to be
compliant with the definition of Height
(Structure) in SCCC section 18.160.080.
["H" Definitions].
• All roofs shall be designed to be
compliant with FAA height restrictions.

INTENT
The central open space at Mission Point is the
park, which is intended to meet the criteria
for a neighborhood park*. The public park is a
city-owned public area and will include active
and passive recreation as well as informal or
structured social gatherings.
GUIDELINE
• The neighborhood park should
accommodate a diversity of recreational
uses, and a variety of activities for all ages
and abilities to align with the parks, open

Non-Residential Private Open Space
INTENT
In an effort to create a diversity of public
and private outdoor attractions across the
development, Mission Point will include a myriad
of non-residential private open spaces located at
the ground floor, podium, or terrace level. Access
will be restricted, and a limited range of uses
supported.
GUIDELINE
• Non-residential private open spaces should
emphasize passive, pedestrian-oriented
design, such as street furniture, lighting, and
diverse landscaping.
• The areas should be integrated with the
building forms, and designed as comfortable
spaces for the community.
STANDARD
• All trees shall be consistent with required

Signage Concepts
INTENT
The proposed signage for Mission Point's
public spaces aspires to unify signs that
fall into different categories: Identification,
Directional, Informational, and Regulatory.
These visual cues form a cohesive wayfinding
system facilitating efficient and inclusive
movement from and to the site. As the site
evolves, additional wayfinding components and
other features projecting from and augmenting
the streetscapes around buildings will be a
fundamental part of the development’s visual
appeal and the general quality and economic
stability of the area.
GUIDELINE
• Wayfinding signage should clearly
designate public, private, and privately-
owned but publicly accessible indoor and
outdoor areas.
• Where appropriate, hours of accessibility
for indoor areas should be explicitly
stated.
STANDARD
• All signage will comply with SCCC
Chapter 18.42 [Sign Standards], except
that exemptions may be proposed as part
of a future comprehensive sign program
• Any temporary signage located in a
public right of way shall not obstruct any
pedestrian pathways, nor EV travel paths.
• Public Park name sign shall comply
with the City of Santa Clara Parks &
Recreation Department’s Park Amenity &
Design Standards.

Mission Point will require on-site and off-site
infrastructure improvements to serve the
project. Infrastructure required to support
Mission Point will be provided pursuant to the
Project’s Vesting Tentative Map and the map’s
conditions of approval will be considered and
approved concurrent with this Development
Plan. The majority of the infrastructure
improvements will be constructed within the
existing right-of-way. It is anticipated that
Democracy Way, an existing roadway within
the project site with a public street right-of-way
easement that contains public utilities, will be
demolished and vacated, with existing utilities
to be relocated.

FEMA Designations
Based on the Federal Emergency Management
Agency’s (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Maps
(Map No. 06085C0063H, dated May 18, 2009),
most of the project site is within Zone X. Flood
Zone X is defined as areas of 0.2 percent annual
chance flood, areas of one percent annual
chance flood with average depths of less than
one foot or with drainage areas of less than one
square mile, and areas protected by levees from
one percent annual chance flood. Democracy
Way and a small portion of Old Ironsides Drive
are within Zone AO, as is Calabazas Creek
(located west of the project site) with the one
percent chance flood contained within the
creek channel. Flood Zone AO is defined as
special flood hazard areas subject to inundation
by the one percent annual chance flood, with
flood depths of one to three feet. Based on
reviews of the City’s storm drainage system
maps, it appears the Zone AO designation
in the street segments described is due to a
combination of the elevation of the streets
and the hydraulic grade line of the storm drain
system at these specific locations.
Easements
The project site is encumbered by several
recorded easements that include Underground
Electric Easements (U.G.E.E.) and Sidewalk
Easements, as depicted and described in the
project’s Vesting Tentative Map.
06.2 EXISTING CONDITIONS
City and County of San Francisco Parcel
(CCSF) (Doc # 675584)
The CCSF owns an 80 foot-wide parcel of land
south of the project site for water transmission
mains
Sea Level Rise
Sea level rise (SLR), as an effect of climate
change, is projected to increase coastal
flooding beyond current levels. Projections
given by the SF Bay Conservation and
Development Commission show potential SLR
of up to 2.0 feet by 2050 and up to 5.5 feet by
2100. At its current elevation, the project site
would be vulnerable to future SLR-influenced
flood events.
Storm Drain
The City of Santa Clara owns and maintains
the storm drainage system which serves
the project site. The project site currently
drains into storm drain lines in Tasman Drive,
Democracy Way, Patrick Henry Drive, and Old
Ironsides Drive. Although the project site is
closer to Calabazas Creek, the storm drainage
lines discharge into San Tomas Aquino Creek
which is located east of the project site. The
existing Tasman Drive line is a 36-inch line west
of the Patrick Henry Drive intersection and
transitions to a 42-inch line east which then
becomes a 48-inch line. The Tasman Drive line
then continues flowing east to Great America
Parkway and ultimately discharges into San Tomas
Aquino Creek. The Patrick Henry Drive line is a
24-inch line that transitions to a 36-inch line as it
flows north. The storm drain line then continues
flowing east onto Democracy Way. The Democracy
Way line transitions from a 36-inch line to a 42-
inch line east and then to a 48-inch line. The storm
drain line then continues flowing north onto Old
Ironsides Drive where the 48-inch line connects
with the 48-inch Tasman Drive line. There is a 24-
inch line in the southern portion of Old Ironsides
Drive that flows south toward the Old Glory Lane
intersection where it transitions into a 27-inch line
and runs east to Great America Parkway, ultimately
discharging into San Tomas Aquino Creek. The
creek carries the runoff into San Francisco Bay.
There is no overland release of stormwater directly
into any creek from the project site; all stormwater
enters the creek through the existing stormwater
drainage system.

Stormwater Management
The State Water Resources Control Board
(SWRCB) administers the National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
General Permit for Construction Activities,
which is intended to reduce construction-
related stormwater pollution. The project site
is exempt from the NPDES hydromodification
requirements because it drains into a hardened
channel (San Tomas Aquino Creek).
Domestic Water
Water service to the site is provided by the
City of Santa Clara Water and Sewer Utility.
There is a network of 12-inch asbestos-cement
domestic water mains in all of the streets
adjacent to the project, including Democracy
Way. There are existing fire hydrants located
around the project on all adjacent streets
including Democracy Way. The City has
performed a Water Supply Assessment (WSA)
which determined the City has capacity to
service the project site. The City determined a
Development Impact Analysis was not required
for this project. Instead, a fire flow test has
been completed for the project to confirm
existing flows and pressures in the existing
water mains.
Recycled Water
Recycled water service to the site is provided
by the City of Santa Clara Water Utility. There
are 8-inch recycled water lines along the east
and west boundaries of the project site in
Old Ironsides Drive and Patrick Henry Drive.
Recycled water is currently used to irrigate the
landscaped areas on the project site and the
surrounding properties.
Sanitary Sewer
Wastewater from the City of Santa Clara is
treated at the San Jose/Santa Clara Water
Pollution Control Plant (WPCP), located near
Alviso. The WPCP is a regional wastewater
treatment facility serving eight tributary
sewage collection agencies and is administered
and operated by the City of San José’s
Department of Environmental Services. The
City operates three main sanitary sewer lines
in the streets adjacent to the project site. All
of the lines ultimately connect to the existing
12-inch main in Tasman Drive and flow to the
Tasman Lift Station located at the southwest
corner of Tasman Drive and Great America
Parkway.
Electric (Silicon Valley Power)
Electric service for the project site is provided by
Silicon Valley Power (SVP), the owner and operator
of the system. Based on review of SVP’s utility
base maps all existing parcels are encumbered
by 10-foot-wide underground electric easements
along the street frontages of Patrick Henry
Drive, Tasman Drive, Old Ironsides Drive, and
Democracy Way that are for the exclusive use of
Silicon Valley Power (SVP) for public electrical and
communication lines.
Gas (PG&E)
Gas service in the City of Santa Clara is provided
by Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E), the owner and
operator of the system. Based on review of the
PG&E’s utility base maps, there is a network of gas
mains in Patrick Henry Drive, Tasman Drive, Old
Ironsides Drive, and Democracy Way, which are
adjacent to the project.

In order to ready the site for development, the
following improvements are anticipated:
Grading
INTENT
The project site will be raised above existing
elevations to decrease vulnerability to future
SLR-influenced flood events. The site will be
graded as the site is developed until full build
out. At full build out, the site will be graded so
that runoff can drain overland to the adjacent
public streets should the on-site storm drain
system fail.
GUIDELINE
• Runoff will be allowed to pond at an
elevation lower than the building finished
floor before releasing to a public street so
that buildings will not flood in the event of
a storm drain system failure.
• At the property lines, adjacent grades
will be maintained so that the existing
stormwater drainage patterns will be
maintained. The adjacent grades will slope
upwards as they enter the project site to
facilitate necessary elevation changes.
STANDARD
• Finished grade elevations will be set
following verification of the proposed
project’s compliance with the City’s
floodplain ordinance requirements.
• Doors and vehicle entrances will be
set above the projected future flood
elevations.

07.1 VISION
Sustainability is an integral part of ensuring
Mission Point becomes a walkable and inclusive
neighborhood that is adaptive to projected
climate change impacts over the next century.
The community’s well-being and resource
efficiency are at the project’s core.
Innovation
In addition to expected sustainability
strategies, the project will include features
that plan for the future for human and
environmental performance, such as:
• Integrated terraces and green roofs
• Dual plumbing systems to reuse water
when feasible
• LEED for Neighborhood Development
Silver or equivalent
Mixed Use
Mission Point establishes a 15-minute
neighborhood in the heart of Silicon Valley
by bringing together multiple uses such as
residential, commercial, retail, and public
amenities. This establishes a convenient
walking and biking network, reduces travel
distances, and consequently reduces the
congestion and emissions associated with
combustion-fueled vehicular traffic.
Mobility
Mission Point connects its mix of homes,
jobs, and amenities to the community, adding
density to existing and planned public transit
lines, bicycle corridors, and walking trails. This
reduces congestion and air pollution and allows
residents, workers, and players outside the
development to live a healthy, active lifestyle.
Compact
Compact mixed-use developments reduce
the physical building footprint, and optimize
land, water, and energy consumption per
capita. The compact footprint of Mission Point
incorporates key sustainability strategies that
reduce the project’s overall carbon footprint.
Open Spaces
Mission Point leverages the vertical plane on
buildings in order to maximize the footprint
available for open space. Open spaces include
plazas, parks, a green spine, a perimeter
green way, roof terraces, and a multi-use
trail. These support cutting-edge storm water
management, connections to the greater
bayside environment, and a diverse range of
open spaces available to visitors, residents, and
workers.

07 I Sustainability
07.2 GOALS
Mission Point’s sustainability goals are
defined in five key environmental and well-
being categories. These goals will be achieved
through a suite of potential sustainability
strategies, described in the following
subsections. Some strategies have co-benefits
and support multiple goals.
1. Reduction in Energy and Carbon Emissions
• On-site solar PV renewable energy
generation
• All-electric buildings
• All new residential construction will be
zero net energy (ZNE)*
• All new commercial construction will be
ZNE by 2030
2. Water and Ecosystems
• Water-efficient buildings (targeted
reduction from CAL Green baseline)
• Water-efficient landscaping (targeted
reduction from CAL Green baseline)
• Maximize open space
• Municipal recycled water
*Per the California Department of General Services (GSA), a ZNE Building is an energy-efficient building where, on a source energy basis, the actual annual consumed energy is less than or equal to the on-site renewable generated energy.
3. Material Resources
• No and very-low VOC finishes
• Minimum 75% construction/demolition
debris diversion from landfill
• Recycling and compost collection
infrastructure
4. Well-being and Community
• 15-minute neighborhood
• Community green spaces – parks, plazas,
terraces, multi-use trail
• Sustainable design-based transportation
measures to help Santa Clara achieve its
VMT reduction goals
5. Preparing for the Future
• Base elevation 15’ above sea level
(NAVD88)
• On-site renewable energy generation to
reduce total energy consumption and
reliance on the grid
• Target LEED ND (Neighborhood
Development) Silver or equivalent for the
entire campus
• LEED CS (Core & Shell) Gold or
equivalent for the commercial buildings
• LEED NC (New Construction) Silver for
high-rise residential buildings (9 stories
or more)

07.3 SITE CHARACTERISTICS
AND OPPORTUNITIES
Santa Clara Valley
California Water Science Center, USGS
Santa Clara is home to the headquarters of many
well-established tech companies. Mission Point
enjoys significant locational advantages and is close
to a variety of public transit. The site shares the SF
Bay Area’s climate change risks of long term SLR,
riverine flooding, an increase in hot days and nights,
drought, and wildfires.
The Mission Point site is envisioned as a mixed-use
development transforming the underutilized light
industrial land into a vibrant neighborhood, drawing
in both commercial and residential tenants to live,
work, shop and play in a single place.

07 I Sustainability
Existing Site Ecosystem
Mission Point is located in the San Francisco
Bay watershed characterized by a rich
ecosystem. Currently, the site is almost entirely
covered with hardscape. The proposed design
will replace these impervious surfaces with
vegetation and permeable materials, creating
an opportunity to filter stormwater runoff
and retain precipitation, thereby enhancing
the water quality of nearby waterways and
restoring soil health. The project also aims to
re-introduce some biodiversity by incorporating
native plantings and providing food for native
pollinator species. This will improve soil and
waterway health, human health, and local
microclimate.
Local Climate
Santa Clara’s geographic location places it in a
Mediterranean climate with warm summer days
and cool nights, and mild winter days. However,
climate change is accelerating the frequency
and severity of extreme weather events,
according to projections. This will worsen air
pollution and sea level rise. Thus, it is critical
to integrate passive heating and cooling
strategies, as well as resilient design strategies
to take advantage of the local climate and
mitigate both local extremes and long-term
climate change.
Precipitation
By targeting a combined potable water
use reduction beyond code, Mission Point
hopes to ease the pressure of contemporary
water demand. Water-efficient fixtures and
landscaping, on-site water reuse of harvested
rainwater, and the use of municipal recycled
water for non-potable needs are all ways to
reduce water consumption. This three-step
strategy maximizes the on-site precipitation,
while minimizing the need for treated water
from off-site sources.
Transit
Many existing and planned transit lines and
trail connections serve Mission Point (Figure
07-3_02). The site is located near key Caltrain,
BART, and Rail Stations (ACE & CC). These
transit routes connect Mission Point to the
surrounding community, while conserving
energy, reducing emissions, and lessening
congestion. Alternative transportation is
further promoted through implementation or
creation of bikeshare programs, bike paths, bus
stops, and shuttles.
The project will implement a TDM Plan, and
will comply with (or exceed) the City’s Climate
Action Plan (CAP) goal for VMT reduction.

High-efficiency Systems
Passive measures help maintain indoor thermal
comfort using the inherent physical and
thermal properties of the building envelope
and its surroundings.
Once passive design strategies have been
employed to the greatest extent feasible, high-
efficiency systems will be used, such as:
• High efficiency HVAC systems
• LED lamps in light fixtures
• Daylight and occupancy sensors
• Building Management Systems/smart
building controls to control the buildings’
heating, ventilation, air conditioning and
lighting through a single interface
• Displacement ventilation for providing
conditioned air to enclosed spaces
with the aim to improve air quality and
thermal comfort, while reducing the
amount of energy to operate the system
• Radiant cooling systems, which use
cooled surfaces such as floors or ceilings
to absorb heat from a room, in order to
help cut energy use and lower and shift
peak electricity demand in buildings
compared to conventional all-air systems
On-site PV Renewable Energy Generation
Paired with Battery Storage
Although building energy loads will be reduced
as is practical through passive and active
energy efficiency measures, there will still be
energy demands for the project. Additional
strategies for energy reduction may include:
• On-site solar photo-voltaic renewable
energy generation, using rooftop solar
panels and additional strategies where
viable.
• Battery to maximize the use of the solar
generated energy on-site, and to ensure
that the additional generation provides a
net benefit to the local grid.
Passive Strategies
Passive strategies reduce heat gain, building
energy, and water consumption through
architectural and landscape design. These
strategies can include:
• Open spaces, including terraces and
balconies, oriented for shelter from
summer sun and strong winds, and to
provide programmable, desirable indoor-
outdoor space
• Green roofs for insulation and to
provide additional accessible ‘naturally
conditioned’ usable space
• Exterior shading designed into the
facades and/or provided by landscape
planting to reduce heat gain
• Buildings oriented to block detrimental
sunlight and wind and create comfortable
outdoor spaces
• Glazing located to optimize natural light,
control glare, and reduce detrimental
heat gain
• Heat island mitigation through cool
roofs, light-colored pavement, and shade
trees
• Building envelopes with superior
insulation and weather sealant
• Operable windows where practical
