Mr. Hashman indicated that they exceed the necessary ratio of parking. He hopes many <br />people will take BART or other public transit, so he feels there is adequate parking. <br /> <br /> There being no further testimony, the public hearing was closed. <br /> <br /> Ms. Mohr referred to problems of parking semi-trucks and trailers on Franklin. Since <br />the applicant has no concerns about parking, would it be possible to restrict street parking on <br />Franklin? <br /> <br /> Mr. Swift felt that most people parking there were Providian employees, except for the <br />few trucks that use it. This is a matter of convenience rather than a lack of sufficient parking. <br />The other businesses have adequate parking spaces. The current provision of 6.5 parking spaces <br />per 1000 sq. ft. is over twice what is normally required. If Council wishes to address the truck <br />parking on Franklin, it should be referred to the Staff Traffic Committee. That would be the <br />best way to start. <br /> <br /> It was moved by Ms. Mohr, seconded by Ms. Michelotti, to introduce Ordinance No. <br />1685, approving the application of Providian Bancorp for a Planned Unit Development <br />major modification to allow the construction of two (2) new, two-story office buildings <br />totaling approximately 100,000 square feet of building floor area located on an <br />approximately 11.15 acre site located at the southwest corner of Franklin Drive and <br />Johnson Drive and approves the abandonment of the section of Morse Drive located <br />between Franklin Drive and Johnson Drive, as filed under Case PUD~80-16-7M. <br /> <br /> Mr. Pico suggested adding a condition to require Providian to work with the Civic Arts <br />Commission. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarvet did not feel that was necessary, since they had agreed to do that. He also <br />thanked Providian for continuing on this project. <br /> <br />The r011 call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers - Dennis, Michelotti, Mohr, Pico, and Mayor Tarver <br />NOES: None <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br /> It was moved by Ms. Mohr, seconded by Ms. Michelotti, to adopt Resolution No. <br />96-55, approving the application of Providian for design review approval to construct two <br />new, two-story office buildings, as filed under Case PUD-80-16-11D. <br /> <br />05/21/96 -22- <br /> <br /> <br />
