The next item on the agenda was the application of Scholastic Magazines, Inc.,
<br />James E. Palmer, A.I.A., 538 Pacific St., San Francisco, for an amendment to Zoning
<br />Permit No. Z-63-19, in order to allow overhead utility inatallation fora diatance
<br />of approximately 400 ft., !a connection with construction of a warehouse and office
<br />facility at 5675 Sunol Blvd., in an I-P District. Mr. Palmer was present in the
<br />audience and stated that granting of the subject Zoning Permit would save the
<br />applicant $4,000. Mr. Fates stated the original Zoning Permit was issued with the
<br />proviso that all utilities be underground. The staff feels the amount of $4,000
<br />would not affect the economic feasibility, ea stated 1n Ord. No. 309, of this
<br />extensive construction. The staff recommends underground utility inatallation, ac-
<br />cording to the stipulation of the original Zoning Permit. After diecuesion by the
<br />Commission, upon motion of Commissioner Rega, seconded by Commissioner Lozano, the
<br />following resolution was unanimously adopted by those Commissioners present:
<br />RESOLUTION N0. 280
<br />WHEREAS, the application of Scholastic Magazines, Inc., James E. Palmer,
<br />A.I.A., 538 Pacific St., San Francisco, for an amendment to
<br />Zoning Permit No. Z-63-19, in order to allow overhead utility inatallation
<br />fora diatance of approximately 400 feet, in connection with construction
<br />of a warehouse and office facility at 5675 Sunol Slvd., in an I-P District,
<br />has come before this Commission;
<br />NOW, THERBFORE, BE IT
<br />RESOLVED, that the City Planning Commission does hereby deny aforesaid
<br />amendment to Zoning Permit No. Z-63-19.
<br />The next item on the agenda was consideration of Tentative Subdivision Map, Tract
<br />No. 2595 (Delucchi Property). Mesere. Ted Fairfield and J. McDevitt were present
<br />in the audience and participated in the discussion which ensued with the Commission
<br />and staff with regard to recommended conditions as presented by the City Engineer.
<br />Upon motion of Commissioner Rega, seconded by Commissioner Lozano, the following
<br />resolution was unanimously adopted by those Commissioners present:
<br />RESOLUTION N0. 281
<br />RESOLVED:
<br />The Tentative Subdivision Map for Tract No. 2595 having
<br />come before this Commission as provided by Ordinance No.
<br />358, is hereby approved, with the following modifications
<br />and conditions:
<br />See "Conditions of Approval of Tentative Map,
<br />Tract No. 2595" ae approved March 11, 1964, a
<br />copy of which ie attached hereto as Exhibit "A".
<br />Next on the agenda was the request of W.E. Dutra, 37313 Maple St., Fremont, to dis-
<br />cuea possible land use alternatives for approximately 40 acres of land located on
<br />the west aide of Sunol Blvd. south of the City Limits. Mr. Dutra and Attorney
<br />William Gale were present in the audience and joined in a diecuesion with the Com-
<br />mieaion end staff. Mr. Dutra proposes a low density residential development of
<br />single-family residences with a minimum of 10,000 eq.ft. The Planning Commission
<br />was asked to give the matter their consideration. Chairman Landon stated the
<br />terrain is suitable for housing but, because of the lmpending freeway, I-P develop-
<br />ment should be considered. Mr. Dutra was inclined to be of the opinion that the
<br />Castlewood environment and unusual topograpny dictate residential development. Mr.
<br />Falea, ae a member of the Chamber of Commerce New Industries Committee, said this
<br />committee does not intend to recommend areas to be zoned industrial. The committee
<br />does not have a recommendation as to either industrial or residential development,
<br />and the staff is of similar disposition. The immediacy of the proposed freeway
<br />makes the property desirable for industrial development. It is Located across from
<br />the Martin property. The staff recommends they be allowed to refer this matter to
<br />the City's Planning Consultants, Livingston and Blayney, and ask them to evaluate a
<br />land use for this particular property, rather than any specific proposal, and
<br />report to the Commission on March 25, which is the date of the public hearing for
<br />the Martin proposal. The Commission was in agreement with this suggestion and it
<br />was so ordered.
