McKellar has been unable to get a major tenant for <br />the size of the initial proposal and are now asking for a change <br />to allow a smaller project. Staff has problems with commercial <br />projects of only five acres. Staff believes that eventually in <br />the southern part of town a neighborhood center would be <br />desirable. <br />Commissioner Innes asked if garden homes would conform to medium <br />density and requested clarification on the exact location of the <br />five acre parcel. He indicated staff contends that the <br />population will support a ten acre commercial development. He <br />has discussed the matter with two developers who disagree. They <br />indicate marketing studies show this area could not draw a major <br />anchor for the center, at this time. Mr. Swift indicated the key <br />is the San Francisco Water Department property. If developed as <br />shown on the General Plan, there would be ample development to <br />support a commercial project. Staff feels this is an ideal <br />location. <br />Commissioner Berger asked what is the size of the acreage for the <br />Nob Hill Shopping Center. Mr. Swift said seven to nine acres. <br />This was originally planned as a major commercial neighborhood <br />center but could not attract a major tenant. <br />- 5 - <br />
