Mr. Pico did not want housing on this site and felt the General Plan designation was appropriate. If the owner of the property wanted to contribute additional funds for aftbrdabte housing in other parts of the City~ it would great. Ms. Ayala also agreed affordable housing was not appropriate for this site. A substitute motion was made by Ms. Dennis, seconded by Ms. Michelotti, to approve a Negative Declaration and to approve staff recommendations with the following modifications: traffic improvements should be done all at once; visual studies should be done for whatever application comes forward and that those be done to address community concerns about particular viewsheds; encourage structured parking where it can be visually mitigated in order to preserve open space; add a benchmark to the transportation systems management program so that if an intersection approaches an unacceptable level of service that the tenant/employer address an intensified traffic management program for the site; that there be no building around the lake; accept the offer of an amount equal to the affordable housing fee to be programmed by the City for either a park within the neighborhood impacted by the project or for affordable housing elsewhere. Ms. Ayala asked Mr. Pico how he arrived at the figure of 750,000 square feet Mr. Pico said it was by pushing the setbacks in and reducing the height of several of the buildings. Ms. Michelotti said this project had the same FAR as other business parks and she needed more mason other than reduction of some traffic to reduce the square footage to 750,000 sq. ft.
