4. Make the PUD findings for the proposed development as stated in the October 12, 2011 Planning Commission staff report (Attachment 5); 5. Introduce the attached draft ordinance approving Case PUD-65-01M subject to the Conditions listed in Exhibit A. FINANCIAL STATEMENT The proposed project would be responsible to pay fees and the costs of any required utility or infrastructure improvements. The project would incrementally increase the demand for City services and would add sales and property tax revenue. BACKGROUND The subject project consists of two contiguous parcels on the east side of Sunol Boulevard. The southern parcel, 5980 Sunol Boulevard, is located within the North Sycamore Specific Plan (NSSP) area. Zoning for this property as specified in the North Sycamore Specific Plan is the Planned Unit Development — Office (PUD-O) District. The northern parcel, 5998 Sunol Boulevard, is not within the NSSP area. It was originally zoned Office District. In 2007, a Planned Unit Development Plan (PUD-65)1 was approved for a two-story office building to be constructed on 5980 and 5998 Sunol Boulevard. With the PUD-65 approval, 5998 Sunol Boulevard was rezoned from 0 District to PUD-O (Planned Unit Development — Office) District, consistent with the zoning designation of 5980 Sunol Boulevard. The property owner/applicant, Nick Kavayiotidis (who was also the applicant for PUD- 65), wishes to construct a 46-bed memory care/assisted living facility and related site improvements at 5980 and 5998 Sunol Boulevard instead of the previously approved two-story office building. Memory care/assisted living facility is a use that is not currently allowed in the North Sycamore Specific Plan or included in the allowed uses approved with PUD-65. Thus, an amendment to the NSSP is necessary to add such uses and a major modification to the approved PUD is required to allow such uses. A PUD development plan is required to construct the facility and related site improvements. As the project site contains two separate parcels, a lot line adjustment application to merge the two properties into one parcel was approved in conjunction with the previous office proposal. The applicant will need to record the parcel merger prior to the issuance of a building permit. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed project includes the following: 1. An amendment to the NSSP to include memory care/assisted living facility as an allowed use. The approval of the PUD-65 development plan has since expired but the zoning did not expire. The applicant did not elect to renew the development plan as the current market is no longer in favor of office building development. Page 2 of 5
