Planned Development/Santa Clara Station Mixed Use (Santa Clara Station Regional Commercial and Santa Clara Station High Density Residential) & Light Industrial/Light Industrial
Document Description
The project proposes to demolish the existing four office buildings (which total 216,000 square feet of office space) and two parking garages, and construct a new five-story building with up to 297 multi-family residential units and up to 111 three-story townhouse units distributed amongst 26 buildings. The multi-family residential building’s roof would include screened mechanical units, and the maximum height of the building would be approximately 64 feet above grade. The maximum height of the townhouse units would be approximately 38 feet. Thirteen of the townhouse units would be located on what is currently a 0.94-acre parcel in the City of San José (as discussed in further detail below) and the remaining townhouse units and the multi-family building would be on the parcel in the City of Santa Clara. The average density of the project would be 37 dwelling units per acre. The project would also construct a new approximately 8.5-foot-wide sidewalk along the project frontage adjacent to the proposed multi-family residential development on El Camino Real and along the project frontage on Campbell Avenue. As proposed, the project would annex the 0.94-acre San José parcel to the City of Santa Clara. If the detachment and annexation of the parcel are approved, the Santa Clara General Plan would be amended to designate the annexed parcel to Santa Clara Station Mixed Use (Santa Clara Station Regional Commercial and Santa Clara Station High Density Residential) and the annexed parcel would be rezoned to the Mixed Use-Regional Commercial (MU-RC) zoning district.
