On-site circulation will be configured with two main driveways from Stoneridge Mall Road to the development (one at the signalized intersection of Stoneridge Mall Road and Embarcadero Court and the other at a new internal driveway onto Stoneridge Mall Road south of the fitness building) with connecting vehicular access and circulation into the existing adjacent parking fields. The internal parking and circulation in front of the lifestyle fitness facility has been redesigned to provide better access and flow as well as increased pedestrian access from the adjacent parking fields, including new passenger drop-off turn-out areas as recommended at the Planning Commission Workshop. The internal road that will loop through the project has also been revised to provide additional customer and delivery loading and unloading access for the new businesses with areas designated for trash enclosures. The proposal would place buildings closer to Stoneridge Mall Road than those that exist today. As proposed, the lifestyle fitness building would be set back approximately 30 feet from the future curb along Stoneridge Mall Road (40 feet from the existing curb), a decrease from that of the closest existing building, the parking structure, which is set back approximately 60 feet from the existing curb. Within the C-R zoning district, there are no minimum setback requirements, with the Planning Commission allowed to establish such regulations on a case-by-case basis. As proposed, within the 30-foot setback, the project will include a row of street trees, a new pedestrian sidewalk and then an additional row of screen trees adjacent to the building within the front setback to screen and buffer the fitness building along Stoneridge Mall Road. The sidewalk and landscaping between the sidewalk and curb will be part of the required future dedication or easement along Stoneridge Mall Road that will accommodate new pedestrian sidewalks, landscaping, and driveways as well as room for future street widening that will provide a new cycle track along Stoneridge Mall Road. As shown in Figure 5 and on the plans, the street section along Stoneridge Mall Road between the street and building would include an 8-foot wide landscape strip, 8-foot wide pedestrian sidewalk and 12-foot wide landscaped building setback from the back of the sidewalk which will be constructed as part of the project.

In the interim, the applicant will leave the existing Stoneridge Mall Road street section as-is and create an interim 20-foot landscape area between the existing curb and the new sidewalk as shown in Figure 5. The applicant will be required to dedicate the land or provide public easements over the land in the future, when the additional Stoneridge Mall Road improvements move forward.
