On Tuesday, August 16, 2022, the Design Review Board reviewed your revised plans for a Use Permit, Design Review & Transportation Demand Plan to construct a new R&D Campus at 800 Dubuque Avenue in the Freeway Commercial (FC) Zoning District in accordance with Title 20 of the South San Francisco Municipal Code
The Chief Planner and the Design Review Board have determined that this application is complying and pursuant to Title 20, Section 20.480 of the South San Francisco Municipal Code and Design Guidelines after the following changes have been made to the plans:
1. The Board liked the revised plan concept with the enhanced articulation to the buildings.
2. The new design redistributes all the elevations which results in an amazing improvement to the design of the campus.
3. The Applicant took the previous DRB comments and came back with a more well thought out design by shifting some of the buildings towards the back of the parcel.
4. The proposed colors and patterns work well with the campus and the applicant took the wind and noise studies and produce a nice plaza that everyone could utilize.
5. The design team did an amazing job with the revised design.
6. Recommend Approval with conditions and can proceed to Planning Commission for future hearing.
Please include these comments and any other into your Planning Commission submittal. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact the Planning Division at (650) 877-8535.
