Document Description
Santa Clara County and Stanford University are preparing a Community Plan (CP) and General Use Permit (GUP) application that will address future development for 4,107 acres of University land located in unincorporated Santa Clara County. A General Use Permit has governed development on Stanford's central campus and foothill areas for over 30 years; the Community Plan is a new tool that will state policies for campus growth. The purpose of the Community Plan is to create a policy framework that will guide both Stanford and the County in their land use decision making, and that will provide the public with a better understanding of Stanford's future use of land . The land use activities permitted through the proposed GUP will be in accordance with land use policies for the seven land use designations defined by the Draft Stanford Community Plan. These designations include Academic Campus, Open Space and Academic Reserve, Special Conservation, Campus Residential - Low Density, Campus Residential - Moderate Density, Campus Open Space, and Public School. As part of the General Use Permit application, Stanford University proposes to: * Construct new academic facilities totaling approximately 2,035,000 gross square feet, which includes academic, academic support, student activity, cultural and athletic facilities. * Build 2,000 housing units for graduate and undergraduate students. * Build 350 housing units for hospital residents and postgraduate fellows. * Build between 313 and 687 housing units for designated faculty and staff, based on low-density (1-8 units/acre) and moderate-density (8-15 units/acre) zoning on specific sites identified in the CP Housing Element. * Construct approximately 3,095 additional parking spaces (1,850 for student/hospital resident/postgraduate fellows residential use and 1,245 for non-residential uses, including spaces associated with cultural and athletic facilities). * Construct associated utilities, roads, bikeways, landscaping, and other requisite infrastructure. The proposed timeframe for the GUP is 10 years. The proposed facilities will occur on vacant and redeveloped sites as indicated on the Development Districts map and the Development Projections tables. All facilities will be located in the Academic Campus and two Campus Residential land use designations within the Academic Growth Boundary.
