A
A
C
So
greetings
this
evening,
commissioners,
the
item
before
you
is
a
nepc
public
hearing
to
consider
recommendations
to
the
city
council
for
commercial
development
at
365
to
405
san
antonio
road
and
25.85
to
25.95
california,
street,
which
staff
refers
to
as
the
maryland
guy
are
phased
3
development.
C
The
project
site
is
located
at
the
southeast
corner
of
san
antonio
road
in
california
street,
and
the
project,
if
approved,
would
complete
the
build
out
of
the
west
side
of
san
antonio's
center.
The
project
site
is
across
the
street
from
a
few
different
recently
developed
or
proposed
higher
intensity,
residential
mixed-use
developments
and
the
gatekeeper
application
for
the
phase.
C
Consistent
feedback
included
concerns
about
the
original
design
being
monolithic,
overly
rectangular
and
ordinary,
with
decision
makers
requesting
curved
walls,
distinctive
design
at
a
key
gateway,
corner,
high
quality,
pedestrian
environment
with
naturalistic
landscaping
and
revisions
to
the
project
to
address
setback.
Compliance
epc
and
council
generally
supported
early
staff
recommendations
for
the
precise
plan
amendments
necessary
to
implement
the
tdr
program
in
san
antonio
precise
plan
and
to
facilitate
city
approval
and
development
exceptions
for
projects
seeking
to
use
additional
tdr
square
footage
in
the
plan
area.
C
As
a
result
of
the
clear
early
design
direction,
the
applicant
completely
redesigned
the
project
with
a
unique
curvilinear
form:
corner
art
piece,
an
elevated
corner
outdoor
space
for
office
users,
as
well
as
additional
upper
floor
balcony
areas,
ciders
wider
sidewalks
and
covered
active
spaces
on
site.
The
updated
design
employs
a
complimentary
stone
material
to
create
some
synergy
between
the
new
project
and
the
existing
adjacent
office
buildings
and
incorporated
new
materials
to
add
warmth
and
pop
to
the
ground
floor.
C
C
The
these
active
spaces
provide
a
mix
of
additional
pedestrian
circulating
impacts,
as
well
as
outdoor
gathering
space.
Next
to
the
building,
drc
and
staff
have
reviewed
the
overall
redesign
and
context,
especially
to
the
previously
provided
city
feedback
and
recommended
approval,
with
design
conditions
noted
in
the
staff
report
for
areas
where
continued
design
refinement
is
recommended.
C
Staff
has
prepared
an
addendum
to
the
san
antonio
precise
plan,
certified
eir
to
review
any
potential
environmental
impacts
from
the
precise
plan
amendments
and
the
development
project.
This
addendum
document
found
that
there
would
be
no
new
or
substantially
worsened
impacts
from
this
project
than
what
was
identified
in
the
previously
certified
eir.
C
We're
available,
as
well
as
our
consultant
environmental
consultant
team,
for
any
questions
that
the
epc
may
have,
and
the
applicant
team
is
also
here
tonight
with
a
brief
presentation,
david
geyser
from
elon
guyer.
It
will
kick
things
off
for
the
applicant
when
you're
ready
for
that
presentation.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you.
Can
we
bring
up
the
applicant's
presentation
and
speakers.
J
So
rebecca
this
is
dave
geyser
with
merlot
guard
partners
managing
director.
I
believe
you're
gonna
share
screen
with
andy
neff
for
to
run
some
of
our
graphics.
J
Great
thank
you
and
I'll
get
started
while
he
gets
ready
again.
My
name
is
dave
geiser,
I'm
managing
director
for
malone
guard
partners
we're
last
before
this
body
in
fall
of
2020
we're
here
to
give
both
you
and
the
city
council
an
early
look
at
the
project
and
the
design
features
and
the
main
takeaways
from
from
that
from
those
meetings
both
with
you
and
the
city
council
were
that
the
city.
You
know
that
they
thought
that
the
the
building
was
needed.
J
More
work
needed
more
punch
that
that
we
wanted
to
create
a
more
inviting
pedestrian
environment.
It
really
wanted
us
to
comply
with
all
the
site.
Setback
regulations
thought
the
building
was
too
high
but,
more
importantly,
we're
told
that
we
wanted.
We
didn't
want
the
same
old,
boring
office
building
this
corner,
because
it's
a
key
intersection
and
entrance
to
mountain
view.
J
The
city
council
wanted
an
iconic
signature
building
at
this
corner,
not
just
a
plain
old
boxy
office
building,
and
also
to
use
curves
to
soften
the
building
edges,
and
so
we've
spent
the
last
year
and
a
half
or
so
on,
redesigned
this
building,
then
taking
a
real.
You
know
a
new
look
at
going
back
to
the
drawing
board
and
and
trying
to
really
come
up
with
something
that
that
met
the
expectations
of
of
the
city,
the
epc
and
the
city
council.
J
What
our
architects
with
gensler
are
going
to
show
you.
This
is
darren,
fulbright,
nick
allen
and
are
the
the
results
of
those
efforts
and
and
you've
been
given
a
sneak
preview
by
rebecca,
but
we're
gonna
get
a
little
bit
more
in
depth
into
that
and
again,
where
we're
using
materials
to
different
materials
to
soften
the
upper
portion
of
the
building,
create
additional
setbacks,
reduce
the
height
and
again
increase
the
pedestrian
experience
at
the
ground
level.
We
think
we've
really
gone
far
in
achieving
those
goals.
J
In
fact,
we've
met
with
the
drb
and
staff
over
three
times
in
the
last
through
last,
fall
again
to
to
get
their
input
and
and
make
the
the
necessary
adjustments.
They
thought
were
necessary
to
achieve
this
design
as
well,
and
so
with
that-
and
I
guess
lastly,
I
would
say
you
know
we're
enthusiastic
participants,
the
tdr
program
and
and
and
participate
with
the
city
and
the
la
isd
lozada
school
district.
J
In
in
contributing
over
20
million
dollars
with
the
approval
of
this
project
towards
the
new
school
and
joint
use
park,
that's
being
planned
for
san
antonio
center,
that
will
happen
with
the
approval
of
this
project.
So
with
that,
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
to
andy
neff
and
to
daryl
fulbright
with
kinsler
and
take
it
away
guys
thanks.
K
Dave,
hopefully,
you
guys
can
see
my
screen
with
the
village
at
san
antonio
phase
three
and
we'll
share
a
quick
video
rendering
of
the
yeah
and
I'm
darryl
fulbright
with
with
gensler,
and-
and
you
know,
this
process
has
really
created
a
much
better
project
at
the
end
of
the
day
and
so
key
things
that
we
did.
You
know
we
set
back
that
ground
floor
to
really
make
the
public
realm
more
impactful.
We
curved
the
facade
and
broke
up
the
the
scale
of
the
facade
to
make
it
feel
more.
K
K
You
can
see
this
glass
feature
that
really
lines
up
with
the
corner
provides
a
gateway
into
the
overall
community,
and
then
we
also
step
the
massing
up
on
the
building
to
really
set
back
the
building
to
make
it
feel
like
it's
more
a
three-story
building
with
a
top
on
it
than
it
is
the
the
full
building
that
is
so
we
we
spent
lots
of
time
to
articulate
the
building
both
from
a
ground
plane
and
from
an
overall
perspective,
to
make
it
more
pedestrian,
friendly
and
more
connected
to
the
community.
K
A
lot
of
porous
porosity
in
the
project
brings
people
through
the
retail
areas
from
both
the
inside
of
the
project
out
to
the
street,
and
it
has
a
very
nice
character
to
it,
a
nice
scale
to
it
and
and
character
to
it.
You
can
see
it
compared
to
the
existing
buildings,
and
you
can
see
that
facade.
K
There
there's
also
a
feature
corner
on
that
side
that
connects
to
our
interior
courtyard,
where
a
lot
of
the
pedestrian
activity
happens
as
well,
and
we've
even
moved
back
the
facade
on
the
silicon
way
interior
street
to
provide
more
pedestrian
connections
there
as
well.
This
jewel
box,
retail,
that
you
see
here
at
the
ground
plane,
was
also
part
of
that
activity,
both
at
the
street
and
at
the
courtyard
area,
and
you
can
hear
you
can
see
how
the
building
just
feels
a
much
smaller
scale.
A
H
Yes,
I
have
a
quick
question
in
terms
of
the
windows
for
the
second
floor
on
up
are
those
all
see-through
or
will
they
have
some
privacy
shading
as
well.
K
Typically,
in
the
office
buildings,
we
will
have
privacy
shading
in
all
the
limits
for
sure
interior
shade.
Okay,
thank
you.
E
One
question
about
the
retail
heights:
I
noticed
in
the
the
presentation
that
was
on
print
that
the
chart
stated
14
foot
minimum
ceiling
heights
for
the
ground
floor,
I'm
in
the
in
the
elevations.
E
K
Oh,
it's
it's
a
14
foot
minimum
and
it
goes
up
to
I
think,
18
feet
are
you
on?
Can
you
verify
that
as
well?
I
guess
nick
is
not
one
of
the
guests
here.
I
don't
have
that
chart
in
front
of
me,
but
it's
not
it.
I
think
it's
a
minimum
of
14
feet
and
goes
down
to
around
18
feet
as
the
slide
as
the
site
slopes
yeah
it
does.
I
can
share
the
screen
that
I
have
after
the
elevation,
real
quick.
Thank
you.
Andy.
C
Yeah
and
while
you
do
that
in
the
answer
to
the
question,
I
think
with
the
the
elevations
show,
where
you
see
a
smaller
height,
I
think
is
a
height
to
adjacent
grade,
not
necessarily
the
whole
clear
height
and
because
there
is
change
in
slope
across
the
site.
That
sort
of
distance
measure
varies
depending
on
what
side
of
the
property
that
you're
on.
C
But
I
think
the
the
finished
floor
is
is
held
at
the
same
height
across
the
building,
would
be
my
my
understanding,
I'll
let
gensor
fill
in,
and
so
the
the
minimum
heights
should
be
compliant
across
the
project
and
certain
locations
will
exceed
it.
K
E
K
E
K
Basically,
essentially,
what's
happening
on
retail
four,
which
is
to
the
right
that
has
a
slight
step
inside,
but
the
grade
on
the
outside
is
a
continuous
slope,
so
everything
meets
grade.
It
just
needs
that
slope,
because
we
can't
slope
the
inside
of
the
of
the
of
the
floor
to
match
the
sloping
grain
on
the
outside.
So
it's
flat,
then
a
slight
step
flat
slight
step
flat
so
that
when
it
it
meets
the
grate
on
the
outside.
It
is
a
continuous
slope.
K
E
Okay,
I
just
remember
seeing
somewhere
from
the
grade
to
the
second
floor,
was
only
like.
It
was
like
less
than
14..
I
don't
know
where
that
is
now.
I'm
sorry-
and
I
just
wanted
to
ask
about
that,
but
if
you
say
the
the
minimum
interior
ground
the
floor
to
the
ceiling
is
14
feet
minimum
and
it's
the
same
elevation
as
the
sidewalk,
then
that
works.
What
was
I
looking
at
here?
Oh
maybe
it's
the
floating
jewel
box,
the
bagels
yeah.
K
E
F
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
So
two
questions.
The
first
is
you
have
kind
of
an
unusual
parking
setup
here
I
was
wondering
if
you
could
using
pictures,
because
it'll
be
easier
for
me
to
follow,
walk
me
through
exactly
how
sort
of
the
traffic
and
parking
flow
is
going
to
work
with
this
building.
J
So
I'll
take
you
to
the
first
well,
while
they're
pulling
up
those
images
I'll.
Let
you
know
that
when
we
built
the
first
phases
of
the
office
buildings,
one
and
two
we
act
in
the
four-story
sub-training
parking
structure
we
created
blockouts
or
knockouts,
is
what
they're
called
so
that
when,
if
we
ever
did
build
a
future
building
three,
we
would
be
able
to
access
that
building
through
buildings,
one
and
two
parking
structures
by
simply
knocking
out
those
panels
in
the
parking
structure
and
connecting
to
the
adjacent
floors.
F
So
if
I
was
coming
to
work,
I'd
be
I'd,
drive
down
san
antonio,
pull
into
silicon
way
and
then
kind
of
pretty
swiftly
thereafter
turn
into
the
parking
in
the
existing
office
building
structure.
I
would
go
down
and
I
could
park
there
or
I
could
drive
underneath
my
own
building
park
there
and
then
I
would
just
take
a
lift
up
be
at
work
and
then,
when
I
was
done
just
reverse
we're
home,
correct.
J
F
I
assume
the
parking
is
going
to
be
sort
of
gated
and
controlled,
because
it's
all
it's
all,
it's
all
for
the
businesses
right.
So
it's.
J
It's
not
only
gated,
it's
not
only
gated
to
get
into
the
first
ground
floor
level.
The
sub
this
b1,
the
first
subterrain
level,
is
gated
from
there
on
down.
We
actually
have
an
opportunity
to
share
parking
with
the
hotel
and
valet
on
the
b1
level,
and
then
it's
further
gated
restricting
people
going
down
to
the
floors
below
that
so
yeah
there's
a
there's,
quite
a
complicated
gating
and
key
card
system
that
allows
people
accessing
and
again
the
office
tenants.
J
You
know,
keep
a
lot
of
security
in
mind
as
well,
so
that
there's
a
lot
of
security
involved
in
letting
the
people
down
into
those
gates
and
also
between
the
different
floors
and
between
the
different
buildings.
F
I'll,
just
I'll
give
give
voice
to
what
my
what
a
theoretical
concern
might
be,
and
I'm
I'm
sure
smarter
people
than
me
have
thought
about
this,
and
it
isn't
going
to
happen.
But
if
you've
got
a
large
number
of
cars
all
trying
to
come
down
silicon
way
to
turn
quickly
and
then
park,
I
would
hope
we
wouldn't
end
up
in
a
situation
where
you
have
a
lot
of
people
actually
kind
of
backed
up
out
onto
san
antonio,
all
waiting
to
turn
right,
because
you,
because
that
parking
structure
is
gated.
F
J
Well,
fortunately,
we've
already
been
able
to
test
that,
with
the
occupation
of
the
first
two
office
buildings
with
facebook.
Not
only
do
they
bust
a
lot
of
their
people
to
the
site
at
a
bus
stop
located
over
on
pacquetti,
but
what
they
have.
They
have
guards
posted
at
those
those
stops
in
the
morning
so
for
the
key
hours
if
they
need
to
open
the
gate
and
leave
the
gate
just
up
and
check
people's
ids
as
they're
coming
into
they're,
they're
they're
posted
there
to
do
that.
J
Fortunately,
we
haven't
had
a
problem
or
they
haven't
had
a
problem
with
cueing
that
that,
because
the
the
gates
are
at
the
bottom
of
those
ramps,
we
have
additional
queuing
length
by
the
way
there's
two
locations.
You,
you
not
only
come
in
off
silicon,
you
come
off
data
or
disk
drive
as
well,
so
there's
two
access
locations
off
san
antonio
road
and
then
those
those
are
also
accessed
into
the
site
as
well
that
there's
plenty
of
cueing
to
prevent
that
from
happening.
In
fact,
it
hasn't
happened.
F
K
Other
thing
to
keep
the
other
thing
to
keep
in
mind
is
that
the
new
gate
systems?
Now
I
I
don't
know
if
you
guys
have
this,
where
you
guys
parked,
but
there's
literally
a
a
signal,
a
a
strip
on
your
car,
and
it
has
a
sensor
up
above
so
you're
not
holding
off.
You
know
to
get
your
card
out
of
your
pocket
and
hold
it
up
to
a
little
thing.
It's
automatic
it
senses
your
car
when
you
pull
up
and
the
gate
automatically
goes
up
so
that
that
helps
as
well.
F
That's
great,
I
just
had
one
more
question,
mr
chair,
if
you,
if
you
would
indulge
me,
I
wanted
to
know
so,
I
noted
in
in
the
analysis
that
the
sale
of
the
150
000
feet
for
the
sake
of
lasd
would
net
that
district.
Around
20
million
dollars
give
or
take
for
the
purchase
of
new
school
land.
Is
that
correct.
F
So
I'm
I
don't
know
as
much
about
the
about
the
tdr
program.
You
probably
know
much
more
how
how
much
money
does
the
school
district
need
to
collect
in
total
in
order
to
purchase
that
property
like
how
much
more,
how
much
more
office
space
do
we
need
to
sell
into
the
tdr
program
so
that
we
can
buy
that
school
ground
that
we
need
to
buy
and
the
parkland
that's
associated
with
it
like
how.
C
The
the
short
answer
is:
the
property
has
already
been
purchased,
so
lasd
has
purchased
a
little
over
11
acres
of
land.
That's
at
the
northeast,
I'm
sorry
yeah
the
northeast
corner
of
san
antonio
center,
two
acres
of
which
the
city
is
under
contract
and
has
purchased
for
city
park
in
addition
to
the
school
site.
So
the
land
has
been
purchased.
C
What
the
tdr
program
is
doing
is
effectively
backfilling
the
outlay
of
funds
for
that
that
lasd
has
expended
for
purchasing
the
property
and
the
tdr
program
is
capped
at
six
hundred
and
ten
thousand
square
feet,
so
no
more
than
that
can
be
sold
and
and
so
to
the
extent
that
all
of
them
are
sold.
You
know
that
that's
the
money
that
will
come
from
the
tdr
program
to
backfill
the
purchase
today.
C
If
there
is
asd
staff
that
has
joined
the
meeting,
they
can
probably
speak
a
little
bit
more
to
the
mechanics.
But
my
I
believe
that
the
sort
of
the
construction
pots
are
a
little
bit
different
than
the
property
acquisition
pots,
but
that
the
the
tdr
program
funds,
if
all
of
them
are
sold,
will
go
a
long
way
to
covering
the
property
purchase.
I
Thank
you
chair.
I
had
a
a
question
just
going
back
to,
I
think
the
2020
discussion
you
know
even
one
of
the
key
features
that
council
requested
was
the
you
know,
as
you
highlighted
the
the
curved
design,
the
key
you're,
paying
a
lot
of
attention
to
that
key
corner
of
the
project
which
you've
done
and
another
item
that
came
up
was
how
help
pedestrians
sort
of
get
through
the
project
and
penetrate
the
project.
And
you
know
we
had
talked
a
little
bit
about
or
asked.
I
You
may
be
to
a
a
retail
store
to
be
able
to
communicate
through
the
project
and
out
the
other
end
or
to
be
able
to
access
multiple
retail
sites
without
having
to
go
back
outside
into
the
sidewalk,
and
I
was
looking
at
the
project
plans
and
the
first
four
in
particular,
and
I
I
know,
there's
a
I
see
a
number
of
different
retail
spots,
some
office
and
I
I
was
just
trying
to
get
a
sense
for
whether
internally
there
are
hallways
and
things
that
maybe
a
member
of
the
public
could
could
walk
down
and
and
transit
through
that
first
floor
and
into
the
project
or
into
other
tests
or
retail
tenants
or
or
even
an
office.
I
If
they
work
there
or
if
it's
it's
pretty
much
cordoned
off
or
if
it
will
depend
on
what
the
tenants
themselves
want.
In
the
end.
J
Mr
clark,
I
remember
having
that
conversation
about
the
ground
floor
and
trying
to
make
it
more
permeable,
but
we
found
out
that
when
we
reduce
the
size
of
the
ground
floor
to
give
more
space
to
pedestrians
around
the
outside
of
the
building,
especially
on
california
and
the
pedestrian
walkway,
by
the
time
we
ended
up
with
the
loading
corridors
necessary
to
serve
those
tenant
spaces.
The
loading
core
is
necessary
to
serve
the
office
building
and
the
loading
areas
and
mechanical
rooms
themselves.
J
We
really
weren't
left
with
any
room
to
to
offer
an
opportunity
to
cut
through
the
middle
of
that
building
and
reach,
let's
say
the
interior
corner
of
the
site,
and
so
we
then
focus
on
just
you
know,
creating
that
experience
that
pedestrian
experience
around
the
outside
of
the
building
and
then
creating
that
retail
edge
along
the
streets
and
then,
as
you
come
through,
then
spending
our
time
focusing
on
that
pedestrian
experience
by
the
jewel
building
and
the
retail
or
the
pedestrian
plaza
that
exists
along
the
silicon.
J
Excuse
me
along
the
the
promenade
there
and
the
office
entry
off
coincidental
complimentary
to
the
plaza
that
already
exists
there
too.
So
that
it
just
it
didn't,
was
no
longer
feasible
to
create
any
kind
of
a
connection
through
the
building
before
those
tenants.
K
And
I
I
think
that
you
want
people
to
walk
on
the
outside,
to
to
really
liven
the
project
and
to
engage
the
retail
and
to
walk
by
all
of
the
retails
that
so
that
the
retail
gets
as
much
foot
traffic
as
possible.
So
from
from
an
urban
perspective,
I
think
you're
better
off
having
folks
being
seen
as
people
drive
around
and
being
engaged
with,
all
of
the
retail
on
the
retail
fronts.
And
so
we
provided
a
really
nice
walkable
experience
on
the
outside
to
walk
through
and
around
the
building
and
on
all
sides.
I
Yeah,
I
I
I
definitely
get
it.
I
know
those
folks
need
need
loading
zones
and-
and
I
I
have
to
compliment
you
on
on
the
additional-
you
know-
pedestrian
facilities
and
the
experience
around
the
outside
of
the
building.
It's
just
hard
for
me
to
to
predict.
You
know
how,
where
most
pedestrians
will
originate.
I
You
know
if
they're
going
to
be
coming
from
some
of
the
parking
structures
or,
if
they're
going
to
be
coming
from
some
of
the
other
retail
tenants
that
are
in
different
phases
of
the
site
and
and
then
how
they
would.
You
know
what
the
what
the
most
common
paths
of
travel
will
be,
but
but
I
agree
it
looks
like
you've
created
a
you
know,
a
decent
experience
here
and
I
think
activating
those
spaces,
even
the
ones
that
are
along
san
antonio,
is
important.
I
So
thank
you
for
for
sharing
how
this
evolved
since
2020
on
that
aspect,.
G
Awesome,
thank
you,
chair
cranston,
so
I
have
two
questions.
The
first
involves
bicycle
parking,
so
we
have
a
caltrain
station
pretty
close
by
to
that
building
and
we
have
some
pretty
prominent
bike
lanes
in
that
area
as
well.
So
I'm
curious
to
hear
from
the
developer.
G
What
is
the
expected
demand
that
you
guys
are
going
to
see
in
this
building
from
you
know,
bicyclists
wanting
to
park
there,
and
you
know
what
have
you
done
to
to
meet
that
demand
and
then,
as
if
a
bonus
has
been
considered
around
that
you
know
anything
to
encourage
more
bicycle
utilization
beyond
just
the
expected
demand.
J
Do
you
want
to
grab
that
daryl
or
I'll
be
more
than
happy
to
answer?
Go
ahead,
so
what
we've
done?
In
addition
to
buildings,
one
and
two,
the
lower
levels?
We
provide
actually
bike,
storage,
bike,
lockers
and
bike
showers
for
people
coming
to
the
building,
in
addition
to
all
of
the
the
bike
lockers
and
bike
racks
along
the
promenade
and
within
the
phase
one
and
two
of
the
projects
we're
providing.
J
You
know
plenty
of
bike,
lockers
and
bike
racks
all
around
the
building
to
encourage
the
bicyclists
to
use
the
site
when
the
site
was
originally
developed.
J
We
had
to
dedicate
an
additional
additional
frontage,
along
both
san
antonio
road
and
california,
for
the
bike
lanes
that
you
see
there
now
so
that
we
enhance
the
the
bike
connectivity
in
the
bike,
a
grid
for
for
connectivity
along
california
and
san
antonio
roads,
so
fully
compliant
with
code.
But
again
I
think
we've
gone
above
and
beyond
with
the
additional
bike:
lockers
racks
showers
storage,
although
we
haven't
integrated
into
the
site.
G
So
does
that
distinguish
between
bicyclists
that
are
working
in
the
office
buildings
and
parking
there
during
the
workday,
and
you
know,
like
bicycle
pedestrian
customers
of
the
retail
sites.
C
Yeah,
the
the
projects
will
include
a
mix
of
both
the
secure
bike
room
which
serves
the
office
tenants
and
visitor
bike
racks
that
at
surface
levels
around
the
site-
and
I
believe
cumulatively,
there'll-
be
a
minimum
of
around
50
spaces.
Split
between
those
two
groups
and
and
and
that's
that's
all
sort
of
outlined.
Then
the
fire
pursuant
to
the
project
conditions
of
approval.
G
All
right
awesome
and
then
that
that's
really
helpful,
and
I
really
appreciate
that.
Thank
you.
The
second
question
I
had
just
had
to
do
with
I
did
notice
on,
I
think
rebecca
was
your
presentation,
the
one
titled
pedestrian
environment.
There
was
a
picture,
and
I
think
I
also
saw
it
around
the
video.
So
I
I
just
wanted
to
know
if
outdoor
seating
was
a
conscious
kind
of
feature
of
the
building
or
if
it's
more
just
like
part
of
the
rendering,
and
it
really
depends
on
the
tenants.
K
So
I
think
it's
absolutely
critical
that
we
get
outdoor
seating
here
to
again
to
liven
that
experience
and
make
make
it
feel
used
and
and
occupied.
So
we've
got
a
couple
of
great
scene
areas:
we've
got
one
if
you
go
back
to
the
site
plan:
andy
okay,
yeah
right
there,
so
we've
got
a
fixed
seating
area
both
here
on
the
left
along
san
antonio
and
then
we've
got
fixed
seating
areas
around
the
jewel
box
along
the
promenade
in
california
street.
So
that's
that's!
K
What
we
see
is
as
as
given
seating
and
if
we
get
a
restaurant
or
two
in
here,
then
we
even
see
more.
So
that
would
be
like
a
minimum
seating
that
we
would
see
going
forward.
What
you're
also
not
seeing
is
right
in
here.
These
browns
are
integrated
benches
within
our
planters
and
landscaping
so
kind
of
further
emulating
these
landscape,
pods
or
amiibos.
That
you're,
seeing
here
as
well.
C
And
one
of
the
things
that
you
know
we'll
continue
to
have
a
conversation
with
the
developer
about
is
the
mix
of
those
improvements
that
they
provide
sort
of
the
base
project,
condition
and
that's
connected
to
discussions
at
drc
and
product
design
conditions.
Just
because
we
want
to
make
sure
that
there's
a
a
good
mix
of
amenities
that
will
be
available
to
pedestrians
in
these
areas,
regardless
of
what
the
eventual
tenants
are.
A
H
Yes,
thank
you.
Can
we
go
to
the
main
to
the
first
presentation,
please,
with
the
facade.
H
Thank
you,
sir.
So
the
sides
there
I
think
it's
gensler
is
is
a
signage
for
any
business.
That's
going
to
be
operating
here,
going
to
be
at
that
specific
location,
or
will
it
be
where.
C
So
the
the
signage
as
shown
in
the
rendering
is,
is
just
that's
a
it's
a
little
bit
of
the
artful
presentation
of
the
building.
Ultimately,
the
this
building
will
be
managed
through
a
master
sign
program
which
will
be
reviewed
with
conformity
against
sort
of
conformity
with
precise
plan
regulations.
C
I
should
remember
what
those
are
off
the
top
of
my
head
right
now,
but
I
don't,
but
it
it
may
not
end
up
being
exactly
there.
K
The
intent
is
to
have
minimal
office,
signage
and
and
very
very
elaborate
retail
signage,
so
most
of
the
reta
signage
you'll
see
will
be
more
of
the
ground
plane.
We
want
to
be
very
strategic
with
the
signage
we
place
up
on
the
building.
C
And
I
believe,
if
I
remember
the
site
plan
well
enough,
there's
a
monument
sign
that
is
proposed
within
a
planting
area
at
the
corner
of
san
antonio
road
and
and
silicon
way.
And
traditionally
what
we've
seen
in
the.
A
C
Developments
here
in
san
antonio
center
is
that,
to
the
extent
there
is
office
signage,
it
goes
on
the
monument
signs.
A
Thanks
to
you
and
I'm
gonna
do
some
questions
and
then
I'll
pick
up
you.
Some
of
these
are
follow-ups
to
other
questions
or
asked
the
connected
parking.
I
am
I
don't
know
this
is
a
question
for
becca
or
other
applicant.
J
There's
an
existing
reciprocal
easement
agreement,
access
agreement
that
runs
with
the
property
that
encompasses
not
only
phase
one
two
and
this
future
phase
three,
and
that
can't.
J
A
In
the
staff
report
it
mentions
that
the
220
212
000
square
feet
of
additional
office
space
is
in
the
other
area,
but
in
the
earlier
presentation
you
mentioned
that
there'd
still
be
there's
a
change
in
the
total
office
space.
I
it
was
of
the
impression
that
the
tdr
moved
off.
It
moved
the
developments
in
one
area
into
another,
and
it
didn't
necessarily
mean
that
the
entire
amount
was
still
available.
Is
that
inaccurate
or.
C
C
So,
apologies
if
I
created
any
confusion,
I
think
when
I
was
speaking
to
additional
floor
area
in
my
presentation,
I
was
speaking
to
the
additional
floor
area.
That's
going
to
be
allowed
in
this
project
by
virtue
of
the
tdr
purchase
and
the
precise
plan
amendments
to
allow
an
exception
to
the
office
development
cap
that
applies
to
this
particular
master
plan
area.
C
That
the
project
site
is
located
in
is
is
something
that
would
allow
more
office
development
at
this
particular
location
that
is
currently
permitted
by
the
san
antonio
precise
plan,
but
it
would
that
office
area
would
not
cause
an
overall
exceedance
of
the
six
hundred
thousand
square
foot
cap
that
is
still
in
place
for
the
precise
plan
area
as
a
whole.
So
the
roughly
two
hundred
thousand
two
hundred
twelve
thousand
square
feet,
as
noted
in
the
staff
report,
is
the
amount
of
remaining
office
area
that
could
be
developed
in
the
overall
precise
plan
area.
C
If
this
project
is
built
under
the
six
hundred
thousand
higher
six
hundred
thousand
office
development
account.
A
That
was
the
second
question
and
then
on
the
the
the
development
agreement
being
requested
for
seven
years
instead
of
two
seven
years
instead
of
two
is
touched
on
extremely
briefly
in
the
staff
report.
Is
that
something
that
we've
done?
Is
there
any
precedence
for
that?
A
C
Well
before
before,
maybe
our
zoning
administrator
steps
in,
I
will
say
that
seven
years
there
there
is
absolutely
precedent.
We
don't
see
a
huge
number
of
development
agreement
requests
on
projects,
but
I
can
think
I
think
the
last
two
at
least
asked
for
for
at
least
seven
years
and
ms
williams,
I
don't
know
if
you
have
additional
flavor,
that
you
can
add
to
that
response.
L
You
know
I
would
echo
what
what
miss
shapiro
just
said,
and
ultimately,
a
development
agreement
is
an
agreement
between
the
city
and
a
developer
and
the
in
the
terms
are
negotiated,
and
the
negotiated
terms
that
are
proposed
were
seven
years.
A
Thank
you
and
then
can
you
pull
the
floor
plan
for
the
first
floor,
backup
that
shows
the
base
retail
space.
A
A
The
precise
plan
was
to
get
that
that
whole
that
much
larger,
extended,
plaza
activated
and
I'm.
So
it's
not
clear
to
me
why
that
corner
wouldn't
be
the
one
with
the
retail
space,
as
opposed
to
the
one
that's
over
along
san
antonio
road,
which
is
in
fact
the
farthest
farthest
from
from
foot
traffic
down
a
quieter
silicon
way.
J
What
we
found
is
that
well,
our
experience
of
years
has
told
us
that
these
tenants,
retail
tenants
in
particular
they
need
the
want
desire
street
frontage,
and
so
our
most
desirable
locations
along
san
anton
in
the
project
are
the
ones
that
are
along
san
antonio
road,
starting
up
at
the
corner
of
el
camino
in
san
antonio,
with
the
shop
buildings
that
are
there
down
to
whether
starbucks
is
the
where
the
restaurant
paul
martens
was
where
the
bank
is
located
now
in
office
building
number
one
and
again
we
expect
these
corner
retail
opportunities
along
san
antonio
and
california
to
be
the
most
sought
after
our
retail
location,
the
fact
there's
plenty
of
parking
within
the
center,
but
it,
but
we
that
the
tenants
are
seen
from
the
tens
of
thousands
of
cars
passing
by
daily
to
see
their
storefront
to
see
their
signage.
J
It's
the
most
desirable
location.
Additionally,
we
located
the
office
entrance
off
of
the
plaza
similar
to
where
the
other
office
entrances
are
on
the
plaza.
So,
while
there's
additional
retail
face
in
the
plaza,
our
goal
was
to
have
all
these
office.
Tenants
as
they
come
to
work
as
they
leave
work
and
during
the
lunch
hour,
they're
walking
through
the
plaza
and
exposed
all
of
the
a
retail
tenant
spaces
that
are
on
the
plaza.
So
that
was
that
was
intentional.
J
That
we've
located
the
where
all
those
you
know,
hundreds
and
thousands
of
office
tenants
are
going
to
be
walking
to
and
from
is
through
the
plaza.
And
then
we
expect
them
to.
You
know
as
they
have
been
enjoy
the
plaza
during
that
during
the
day,
as
well
as
the
rest
of
the
public.
But
during
the
week
those
office
tenants
come
out
of
those
office.
Buildings
fill
up
the
plaza
and
are
exposed
to
the
retail
tenants
that
are
on
that
plaza.
A
A
And
then
last
question
was-
and
I
I
would
I
didn't-
have
a
chance
to
to
listen
to
the
a
council
meeting.
Maybe
staff
or
anybody
else
can.
What
is
what
makes
a
create
an
iconic
signature
building
that
takes
advantage
of
the
key
location
on
the
intersection?
A
K
If
you
want,
I
can
chime
in,
I
think
what
it
means
is
that
it
stands
out
and
differentiates
itself
from
its
surroundings
and
its
immediate
surroundings.
And
so
in
this
context
it
is
iconic.
K
I
think
your
more
traditional
vision
of
iconic
would
be
something
like
the
eiffel
tower
right,
because
it
sticks
out
over
everything
in
in
paris,
and
so
what
we
try
to
do
is
is
to
not
only
comply
with
all
of
the
setbacks
and
the
guidelines,
but
create
a
unique
architecture
that
is
of
itself
unique
to
this
neighborhood,
and
I
think
that's
what
makes
it
iconic
within
its
specific
context,.
C
The
only
other
thing
I'd
add
is
that
you
know
design
is
a
squidgy
thing
and
sort
of
something
that
feels
iconic
or
special
unique
to
one
person
may
not
hold
the
same
sentiment
in
another
person,
and
I
think,
in
the
case
of
something
like
the
eiffel
tower,
that
that
is
something
that
is
entirely
different
from
its
surroundings,
but
then
its
scale
and
its
design,
and
if
that
has
a
particular
purpose,
I
think
in
this
particular
context,
what
what
I
would
gather
from
the
feedback
that
that
I've,
I've
heard
and
reviewed
is
that
folks
were
searching
for
something
that
felt
felt
unique.
C
But
the
sort
of
the
flip
side
of
that
is
is
not
having
something
that
feels
completely
alien
to
the
space
around
it.
It's
a
delicate
line
to
walk
at
a
property
like
this.
E
I
think
I
might
be
inching
into
into
comments
instead
of
questions,
so
is
that,
okay,
at
this
point.
H
Yes,
thank
you,
sir.
So
I
have
a
quick
question
just
going
back
to
what
commissioner
dempsey
had
raised,
I
understand
there's
someone
from
the
wilson
school
district
here
as
well.
Is
that
true,
or
did
I
miss
here.
C
So
I
am
looking
at
the
attendee
this
now
they're,
one
of
the
sort
of
key
consultants
for
los
altos
school
district
does
apparently
in
attendance.
I'm
I'm
not
seeing
our
tdr
program
representative
with
lasd
here
tonight.
I
know
he
was
going
to
try
to
attend,
but
I
think
they
have
popped
up.
H
Okay,
so
so,
then,
as
a
follow-up,
would
it
be
possible
to
follow
up
on
commissioner
dempsey's
question
regarding
funding
and
where
this
goes
in?
In
light
of
that
funding
situation,
that
lasd
has
in
general
that
way
at
least
we
have
a
good
idea
of
where
the
school
district
stands
in
terms
of
money
allotment
towards
construction
in
general.
H
C
M
M
We
know
that
the
cost
of
the
property
which
is
was
earlier
pointed
out
that
purchase
has
been
made.
It
was
155
million
dollars
to
purchase
the
11.65
acres.
The
city
is
contributing
20
million
toward
joint
use,
23
million
toward
joint
use
facilities,
and
they
are
purchasing
two
acres
from
the
district
at
20
million.
M
M
They
are
one
of
three
developers
that
are
either
already
approved
or
are
facing
approval,
and
that
accounts
for
about
44.
Of
that
total
financial
goal.
M
We've
got
two
more
projects
that
are
in
the
review
process
with
the
city,
which
is
another
25
percent,
so
for
a
variety
of
reasons,
covet
has
delayed
things
tremendously.
The
office
market
has
gotten
very
uncertain,
we're
still
without
clear
answers
on
where
the
final
30
percent
of
the
tdr
package
is
going
to
go,
and
that's
our
focus
now
is.
How
can
we
find
the
right
projects
in
your
community
to
make
to
make
the
district
whole
so
they
can
fulfill
their
goals.
F
Yes,
I
actually
wanted
to
follow
up
on
commissioner
gutierrez's
question
and
forgive
me
because
I'm
I'm
relatively
new
and
I
understand
very
little
about
the
the
tdr
program.
F
What
does
the
delay
in
reaching
sort
of
you
know
a
complete
sale
and
getting
getting
the
whole
the
whole
79
million?
I
think
it
is
that
we're
supposed
to
be
collecting
from
this
program.
If
that's
delayed,
how
does
that
actually
affect
the
building
of
the
school
site?
Does
it
literally
mean
if,
if
it
takes
us,
two
extra
years
to
sell
all
that
square
footage,
the
building
of
the
school
is
delayed,
or
we
is
the?
It
sounds
like
the
the
timing
of
the
construction
wouldn't
be.
We
would
just
end
up
backfilling
money.
F
M
So
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
be
done
just
to
get
to
the
point
of
being
able
to
go
out
to
bid
and
construct
the
project,
but
the
board
is,
I
think,
to
their
credit
being
mindful
that
they
need
to
know
that,
even
if
they
don't
have
all
the
money
in
hand,
there's
a
path
of
certainty
to
it.
So
if
there's
a
project,
that's
moving
toward
entitlement
in
the
city
and
the
developer
is
ready
to
negotiate
with
the
district
on
a
purchase
and
sale
agreement.
M
That's
the
kind
of
certainty
they're
really
looking
for.
So
I'm
feeling
that
there's
there's
just
it's!
It's
really
hard
right
now,
because
the
office
market,
which
is
has
funded
a
big
share
of
this,
it
really
is
uncertain.
So
that's
what
we're
focused
on
your
question
is
the
one
I
hear
every
time
I
talk
to
the
staff
and
the
board
over
at
the
district.
A
And
we
will
open
up
public
comment.
Would
any
member
of
the
public
on
the
line
like
to
provide
comment
on
this
item?
If
so,
please
click
the
raise
hand
button
in
zoom
or
press
star

on
your

phone
users
can
mute

unmute
themselves
with

Ppc
clerk
will
start
the
timer
to
let
you
know
when
your
time
is
up,
and
I
I
do
haran
I
there
were
two
members
of
the
community
that
asked
to
be
kind
of
back
to
back.
N
I
wasn't
aware
of
anyone
wishing
to
be
back
to
back,
but
I
do
see
tim
mather
and
michelle.
Oh
boy.
A
All
right,
then,
we'll
call
the
first
first
person.
O
Actually,
please
chair
myself
and
michelle
had
requested
to
share
a
total
of
six
minutes
back
to
back
three
minutes
for
each
of
us.
Is
that
acceptable?
Please.
O
Yes,
I
had
provided
the
slides
earlier.
We
had
provided
the
slides
earlier
who
who's
driving
on
the
slides.
Please
will
that
be
from
your
end
or
is
that
from
rn?
Please.
C
I'm
not
in
receipt
of
specific
slides
aaron
if
it's
possible
to
allow
them
to
show
the
screen.
That
would
be
great.
Thank
you.
O
K
P
O
No,
it's
not
there
for
us,
please,
we
can
only
raise
and
lower
our
hand
and
mute
and
unmute.
Okay,
one
moment
the
slides
were
sent
to
the
epc
apartment,
evc
email
address.
P
P
P
On
this
map,
we've
labeled
a
1.6
mile
section
of
san
antonio
road
that
extends
from
el
camino
to
east
charleston.
We're
going
to
take
a
closer
look
at
this
section,
because
it's
the
most
impacted
section
and
is
the
main
outlet
to
highway
101
for
nearby
residents
of
mountain
view,
palo
alto
and
los
altos.
P
P
P
Furthermore,
in
the
same
report,
it
states
the
following
measures
will
reduce
peak
hour
traffic
by
30
percent.
These
measures
include:
adding
bicycle
parking,
providing
on-site
bicycle
maintenance
and
repair
where's.
The
evidence
and
data
supporting
this
conclusion
again
we're
seeing
numbers
in
this
plan
that
look
like
a
cut
and
paste
from
some
other
report.
P
This
is
a
list
of
the
recent
development
along
that
1.6
mile
stretch
of
san
antonio
road.
You
have
the
village
center
330
residential
units,
the
dean,
583
units,
the
lansbee
632
units,
the
ac
hotel
and
the
hotel
citron,
and
these
are
the
developments
directly
on
san
antonio
road.
This
list
does
not
include
development
nearby,
so
to
summarize
and
address
the
other
points
of
failure,
I'm
going
to
hand
this
over
to
tim
mather,
my
neighbor,
to
continue.
O
Yes,
we'll
just
stay
with
you
so
go
for
it
there
you
go
yep.
Okay,
next
slide,
please,
okay!
Okay!
Thank
you!
Everyone!
Let
me
just
summarize
what
michelle
just
covered
here,
so
the
projects
that
have
been
under
either
finished
or
are
under
consideration
is
a
total
of
more
than
2
000
residential
units.
That's
apartments,
condominiums
and
hotel
rooms
and
again,
as
michelle
just
stated,
that's
just
directly
along
san
antonio
road
and
that's
in
less
than
10
years.
It's
not
including
any
nearby
developments.
O
Okay,
I'll
also
stress
that
all
of
those
residential
units
are
additional
they're
new.
None
of
that
is
replacement
housing
off
of
that.
Okay,
and
that's
just
in
again
that
1.6
mile
section
of
el
camino
real
I'd,
also
like
to
stress
please
that
these
figures,
all
of
this
information,
comes
from
city
documents.
Okay,
it's
our
city's
own
documents
that
are
making
these
claims.
Okay,
the
addendum
pardon
me,
but
it's
a
sloppy
cut
and
paste.
O
So
next
slide,
please,
okay,
so
several
of
these
projects
claim
that
they
will
be
offset
offsetting
traffic
by
caltrain,
ridership
and
the
city
acknowledged
those
developer
claims
in
its
own
documents.
Off
of
that-
and
you
can
see
a
couple
of
the
statements
here
from
nearby
developers-
okay,
I
would
like
to
remind
the
commission
please
that
san
antonio
road,
the
caltrain
station
there
that's
a
limited
station,
meaning
there's
no
baby
bell
service
there.
O
It's
one
of
the
busiest
trains
that
caltrain
runs
okay,
so
my
question
is:
where
does
the
city
expect
that
that
that
traffic
to
be
absorbed
by
caltrain
and
caltrain
is
already
stretched
to
the
max?
Okay
and
again,
those
figures
are
coming
straight
from
caltrain?
Okay,
that's
the
latest
report.
That's
available
off
of
that,
so
primary
trying
to
offset
san
antonio
road
traffic
by
caltrain
pretty
questionable
off
of
that
next
slide.
Please.
O
O
Okay
and
that's
the
numbers
there
are
coming
from
pg
e
voicemail
messages
which
actually
provide
the
number
of
customers
that
are
impacted
and
customer
in
this
case
equals
a
household
or
a
business.
So
if
we
were
to
times
that,
for
example,
by
three,
you
get
the
total
number
of
individuals
who
are
impacted,
this
is
just
completely
unacceptable.
A
Okay,
so
thank
you
for
your
comments.
Can
you
we
can
share
these
share
your
slides
with
the
rest
of
the
commission.
Please
do
yeah.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
A
Right
then,
we'll
bring
it
back
to
the
commission
for
for
discussion,
deliberation
and
action
so
who
would
like
to
go
first.
E
E
I
appreciate
that
development
team
had
taken
the
council's
comments
into
consideration
and
set
back
the
ground
floor.
I
see
that
there
are
a
lot
of
positives
to
that.
I
would
just
kind
of
put
out
a
little
bit
of
a
warning.
E
So
it's
just
striking
that
balance.
It's
more
of
something
to
please
think
about
carefully.
I
noticed
when
walking
the
promenade
area.
E
There
are
a
lot
of
like
little
obstacles
on
the
sidewalk
in
the
pedestrian
way,
sometimes
there's
a
big
planter
and
you
can
barely
walk
around
it,
especially
at
the
corners.
I
think
that
is
probably
a
key
area
to
watch
for
and
not
have
a
planter
that
blocks
you
from
going
directly
crossing
the
street
to
the
either
direction
of
the
sidewalk
people
like
to
just
kind
of
go
straight.
E
So
I
guess
it's
it's
just
one
comment
to
be
wary
to.
Please
strike
a
balance
between
adding
planters
and
allowing
for
sort
of
natural
wide
sidewalks
that
people
can
pass
through
go
around
the
building
easily
and
not
have
to
like
traverse
too
many
obstacles
and
have
those
planters
sort
of
block.
What
you
are
aiming
for,
which
is
to
get
people
to
see
the
retail
and
have
that
retail
be
engaging.
C
I
could
ask
for
just
sorry
one
point
of
clarity
from
commissioner
yang
yen.
Are
you.
C
Specifically,
to
like
the
modular
planters
that
are
sort
of
placed
out
sort
of
in
hardscaped
areas-
or
you
think,
are
you
speaking
to
kind
of
the
green
spaces
and
and
sort
of
built-in
planting
areas
that
are
part
of
the
projects.
E
You
know
if
you
even
mound
it
up
a
little
too
high
and
then
add
a
tree
and
shrubs.
That's
like
four
feet
or
even
taller.
That's
blocking
the
view
of
the
retail
spaces,
which
is
counter
to
what
retail
usually
wants
and
also
given
that
we
just
added
this
extra
space.
E
I
understand
the
desire
to
add
more
plantings
and
that's
great
to
have
that,
but
we're
you
know
we
were
adding
it
in
order
to
get
very
comfortable
widths
for
people
to
walk
back
and
forth,
and
I'm
just
a
little
bit
worried
that
now
we're
creating
like
a
little
narrow
areas
that
you
have
to
choose
to
go
left
or
right
and
it
doesn't
feel
like
it's
one
wide
sidewalk,
it's
just
two
narrow
two
narrow
ones.
I
know
you
can
get
through.
E
There
are
sort
of
break
points,
so
that
was
one
concern
and
the
second
factor
was
just
really
when
you're
crossing
the
side
walking
you
get
to
the
corner.
You
really
don't
want
that
corner
blocked.
You
want
to
be
able
to
feel
like
you're
getting
to
the
corner,
and
then
you
can
go
in
whichever
direction
you
want.
So
there
are
like
three
corners
that
are
kind
of
blocked
off,
and
I
just
worry
that
it's
actually
creating
a
separation
between
the
right
retail
and
the
street
sort
of
public
space.
K
I
chime
in
here
one
of
the
big
changes
we
made
between
the
last
go-round
and
this
go-round
is
we
used
to
have
planters
up
above
above
the
walking
surface
and
that
we
took
all
those
planters
and
put
them
into
the
garage,
so
they're,
really
just
mounds
coming
out
of
the
ground
and
those
mounds
are
not
higher
than
say:
12
inches
16
inches.
K
So
there
there
we
subterranean
those
planters
so
that
it
would
be
more
natural
mounds,
and
it's
really
just
to
make
sure
that
the
space
doesn't
feel
too
hard
because
it
needs
to
have
a
little
bit
of
a
buffer.
But
I
I
don't
know
that
it's
going
to
be
a
blockage
like
like
you're
concerned
about.
I
think
I
think,
we've
done
quite
a
bit
of
work
with
our
landscape
designer
to
address
very
exactly
that,
because
we
have
the
same
concerns.
E
Okay,
thank
you,
mr
fulbert.
It
was
just
something
to
point
out
to
be
to
be
aware
of
just
obviously
in
plan
it
it's.
It
looks
like
a
potential
blockage
and
you
know
how
people
they
will
cut
across
things
and
make
their
own
trail,
and
so
I
worry
for
these
three
places.
You
know
if
it's
too
low
people
might
walk
through
if
it's
too
high,
then
it's
just
an
impediment,
and
I
say
that
because
I
think
it's
like
across
the
street
somewhere
in
the
promenade,
the
office
sort
of
plaza
area.
E
There
are
some
planters
that
literally
will
impede
the
sidewalk.
You
have
you
know
when
you're
trying
to
cross
the
streets
in
the
way.
So
there
are
a
lot
of
little
obstacles
here
and
there
with
potted
plants
and
the
like
it's
kind
of
hard
to
tell
where
you're
supposed
to
walk.
If
each
area
is
a
little
narrow,
and
so
I
don't
want
to
lose
anything
by
adding
too
much
planters.
I
didn't
think
I'd
hear
myself
say
that
I
love
plants,
but
just
you
know
to
strike
a
balance.
F
Yeah,
so
I'm
back
on
traffic.
So,
given
the
concerns
that
were
expressed,
you
know
a
few
minutes
ago
about
traffic
on
san
antonio,
and
I
myself
have
driven
down
san
antonio
enough
to
know
that
it's
not
a
concern.
That's
completely
unfounded
to
staff,
I
mean,
would
a
traffic
study
be
helpful
or
appropriate,
or
you
know?
Is
there
a
reason
that
one
is
not
currently
included?
I'd
just
be
curious
to
know
sort
of
the
logic
of
the
apparent
lack
of
concern
around
traffic
impacts
from
this
this
particular
development.
C
The
analysis
itself,
though,
is
looking
specifically
at
whether
this
project
as
a
whole
would
cause
any
new
or
substantially
greater
impacts
to
traffic
than
were
analyzed
during
the
original
san
antonio
precise
plan
eir,
and
the
conclusions
of
that
analysis,
because
the
san
antonio
precise
plant,
eir,
actually
analyzed
upwards
of
800
000
square
feet
of
office.
Development
in
the
plan
area
is
that
this
project
would
not
would
not
cause
a
new
substantially
greater
impact
than
what
we
had
previously
studied.
F
A
Well
I'll
discuss
I
mean
overall,
the
I
think
I
the
the
the
work
that
was
done
to
try
to
make
add
more
sidewalk
space,
I
think,
is
good.
I
do.
I
do
agree
with
some
of
missionary
yen's
concern
that
it's
instead
of
being
big,
wider
sidewalks,
it's
a
couple
of
sidewalks
side
by
side
with
connections,
and
so
just
making
sure
that
that
that
that
goal
of
of
of
enough
width
between
the
public
access
and
the
area
underneath
along
the
building
combined
is
easy
enough
for
people
to
get
through
those
breaks
is
a
good
thing.
A
I
I
don't
personally
feel
that
the
visual
size
and
scale
of
the
building
feels
any
different
than
the
earlier
one
did.
It
looks
different.
The
curves
certainly
make
it
more
interesting,
but
I
don't
know
that
the
the
feeling
of
scale
has
been
achieved
yet
I
know
the
staff
report
mentioned
that
there
be
additional
items
in
the
in
the
development
in
the
design
review
process.
They
can
just
look
at
the
upper
floors.
I
would
certainly
support
that
activity.
I
don't
know
that.
That's
necessarily
a
reason
to
say
no
at
this
point,
but
it
doesn't
necess.
A
The
massing
doesn't
feel
it
doesn't
feel
any
smaller
to
me
or
less
actual
than
the
earlier
one
did
necessarily
but
the
pedestrian
environment
I
think
was
achieved.
The
landscaping
element
seems
to
be
better
the
ground
floor.
Space
was
dealt
with,
the
setbacks
were
dealt
with,
the
curves
definitely
make
it
a
little
less.
A
I
do
have
a
you
have
a
bit
of
concern
if
the,
if
we're
dependent
on
the
tenant
of
building
two
to
be
the
gate
for
the
traffic
into
the
space,
I
don't
know
that
agreement,
how
it
works,
but
certainly
making
sure
that
whatever
is
done
there
that
if,
if
there
happens
to
not
be
a
tenant
and
and
that's
in
that
space
or
it's
divided
among
multiple
tenants
rather
than
right
now,
facebook
is
a
single
tenant.
A
They
can
control
it.
But
if
it's
divided
up
for
some
reason
making
sure
that
that
flexibility
of
getting
people
off
of
san
antonio
into
the
parking
lot
and
vice
versa
in
the
evenings,
I
think
it
needs
to
somehow
continue
to
be
there,
and
so
I
don't
know
if
that's
in
the
development
development
agreement
or
what,
but
somehow
to
make
sure
that
that
doesn't
go
away
if
it's
working
great.
A
But
it's
there's
fact
that
it's
a
single
tenant
right
now,
I'm
worried
that
that
is
a
reason
it
may
be
working
and
other
conditions
may
not
make
it
work.
So,
overall,
I'm
inclined
to
support
the
project,
even
though
not
everything
that
was
that
you
know
I
it's
an
interesting
building.
Is
it
my
definition
of
icon?
Not
really,
but
I
don't
I
didn't.
I
wouldn't
want
to
like
hotel
here
either
anyway.
So
it's
good
enough
for
me.
So,
commissioner,
clark.
I
Yeah,
I
feel
I
feel
some
early
remembering
back
to
2020
and
the
in
the
comments
that
were
made
then
and
sorry
for
the
background
noise,
apparently
someone's
throwing
a
party
that
I
wasn't
invited
to
the.
I
I
remember
you
know
really
wanting
to
break
down
some
of
those
some
of
those
corners
and
and
trying
to
round
out
the
design
so
that
it
didn't
just
look
like
another,
a
box
next
to
a
box,
and
I
think
you've
done
a
really
great
job
at
addressing
that
adding
some
more
interest
to
the
to
the
building
itself,
creating
a
better
pedestrian
experience.
I
I
think
I
was
one
of
the
folks
at
the
time
who
brought
up
the
you
know
the
the
thought
of
trying
to
create
some
sort
of
way
for
pedestrians,
either
through
the
building
or
through
some
sort
of
promenade
to
to
access
the
the
other
portion
of
the
promenade
that
we
had
tried
to
activate
with
in
prior
phases,
and
I
think
one
of
the
benefits
of
the
recent
site
visit
for
me
was
really
seeing
the
the
new
residential
complex
across
california
coming
to
fruition
and
that
pedestrian
promenade
connecting
across
and
and
you
know
it
it's
starting
to
feel
to
me
like
that-
will
be
more
of
a
primary
pedestrian
bike
corridor
into
the
project
and
into
the
retail
than
from
that
corner.
I
And
so,
while
it's
important
that,
I
think
that
corner
be
be
unique
and
visually
interesting
and
draw
folks
in
to
those
retail
tenants
I'm
starting
to
to
feel
like.
Maybe
you
know,
maybe
it
isn't
the
end
of
the
world.
If
we
don't
have
that
interior.
You
know
path
of
travel
for
folks
to
follow
and
and
that
activating
those
those
wider
sidewalks
is
a
is
a
better
way
to
go.
As
you
stated,
and
then
understanding
the
constraints
on
space
that
you
have
there
too,
I
do
I
do
understand.
I
You
know
with
any
project
the
especially
around
this
particular
area
and
all
the
development.
That's
that's
gone
on
there,
the
the
the
concerns
about
traffic
impacts
and
and
parking
and
the
logistics
and
wanting
to
ensure
that
we
don't
create
backups.
You
know
especially
losing
a
lane
in
san
antonio,
with
folks
pulling
into
parking
areas.
I
think
granted
we
haven't
had
the
best
data
over
the
last
couple
of
years
with
with
covid,
but
I
think
pre-covered
with
facebook
there.
I
I
think
we
had
a
sense
of
how
the
tdm
plans
really
play
out
when
you
have
a
major
tenant
there,
and
I
don't
think
all
the
concerns
there
really
came
to
fruition
and
I
think
the
the
tdm
programs
work,
so
I'm
a
little
bit
more
comfortable
there
and
and
as
staff
pointed
out,
you
know
we
we
studied,
you
know
more
office
than
than
this
under
the
precise
plan
and,
ultimately,
I
think
decided
that
the
precise
plan
would
have
a
lower
cap
on
on
office
and
and
then
we
did
the
supplemental
study
here
for
this
particular
project
to
make
sure
that
it
wouldn't
create
any.
I
You
know
significant
overriding
impacts.
You
know
beyond
what
we'd
study
in
the
precise
plan
and
it
sounds
like
it
won't.
So
I
think
this
is
one
of
the
last
key
pieces
to
to
the
at
least
this
section
of
the
of
the
overall
plan
come
into
fruition,
and
I
think
a
lot
of
progress
has
been
made.
I
I
agree
with
the
with
the
direction
that
staff
provided
in
terms
of
things
that
we
should
look
at
going
forward
or
as
the
as
the
design
is
finalized
and
overall,
I'm
I'm
willing
to
support
the
the
staff
recommendation
and
I've
been
willing
to
make
the
motion
once
we've
had
a
few
more
comments
and
and
get
a
sense
for
where
everyone
else
stands.
G
Yeah,
I
I
also
don't
have
many
bad
things
to
say
about
the
project,
in
fact
positive
things.
I
do
very
much
like
the
change
in
design.
It's
it's
definitely
an
improvement
from
the
prior
iteration.
I
do
appreciate
the
activation.
G
I
think
that
was
a
very
conscious
effort
to
make
it
very
pedestrian
friendly,
accessible
make
it
look
vibrant.
It
seems
like
it's
going
to
slot
right
into
that
corner.
I
personally
am
always
concerned
about
the
impacts
of
infrastructure,
I've
driven
down
san
antonio
at
different
area.
You
know
times
of
the
day
and-
and
it
can
definitely
be
pretty
painful.
That
said,
I
I
think
that
you
know
solving
the
problem
of
infrastructure
is
definitely
its
own
beast.
G
That
has
to
be
tackled
and
a
very
worthwhile
one
at
that,
and
while
definitely
office
space,
whether
or
not
the
the
chef
in
working
location
habits,
you
know
reorients
to
something
approaching
what
it
used
to
be
before
covet.
Well,
I'm
definitely
very
much
not
you
know,
predisposed
to
appreciating
new
office
development,
new
commercial
development,
which
I
I
personally
think
we
have
more
than
enough
of
in
this
city
and
regionally.
G
I
I
do
appreciate
the
element
of
the
transfer
development
rights
that
would
facilitate
the
acquisition
of
a
school
site.
So
in
that
vein,
I
think
it's
a
unique
benefit
that
we're
getting
from
this
project,
which,
for
all
intents
and
purposes,
you
know,
with
other
reasons,
noted,
I'm
I'm
very
much
willing
to
support
the
recommendation
as
as
provided
by
staff.
F
Sure
so
I
think
all
things
considered
I
like
it.
I
actually
think
it's
it's
it's
pretty
designed.
I
appreciate
the
you
know
the
curvature
and
the
glass
and
definitely
looks
sort
of
fitting
for
silicon
valley.
I'm
glad
to
see
there's
going
to
be
more
trees
there
than
before.
That's
all
you
know,
more
teresa
is
always
good.
I'm
grateful
that
the
applicants
were
thoughtful
about
parking
and
and
making
that
work,
and
I
was
always
happy
to
see
underground
parking.
F
And
I
look
forward
to
going
and
getting
coffee
at
one
of
those
jewel
boxes
at
some
point
in
the
future.
I'm
especially
glad
to
see
you
know
money
flowing
into
los
altos
school
district
to
support
the
building
of
that
school.
That's
actually
really
good
news,
and
I
want
to
keep
hearing
more
about
more
about
that
program,
but
I'm
really
glad
that
this
is
going
to
help
help
build
that
school.
F
I'm
looking
forward
to
taking
my
coffee
and
walking
over
to
look
at
that
beautiful
school
and
then,
finally,
just
to
staff.
I'm
grateful
for
the
thought
that
has
gone
into
studying
the
kind
of
the
larger
traffic
problem
there
on
that
corridor.
F
H
Oh
chair,
commissioner
haymayer
was
was
first.
H
Okay
sounds
good.
Thank
you.
You
know
when
you
have
this
type
of
project.
You're
gonna
have
a
lot
of
pros
and
cons.
H
I
think
the
issue
is
just
that
when
you
have
more
than
two
cities
involved,
it's
it's
a
more
of
a
challenge
than
what
you
think,
because
you've
got
traffic,
that's
not
just
impeding
progress
to
101
on
that
neck
of
the
road
of
san
antonio,
but
also
shoreline
right
and
others.
Other
avenues
that
we
have
we've
seen
this
before,
because
you've
got
los
altos,
you've
got
palo,
alto,
you've
got
mountain
view
and
that's
a
lot
of
vehicles
that
use
these
main
areas
to
get
to
these
places.
H
But,
having
said
that,
it
looks
for
corner
building,
it
looks
like
it
fits
in
right
next
to
icon
and
that
movie
theater
has
a
different
design
all
of
in
itself.
H
That
area
is
forming
along
forming
something
new,
something
fresh
that
hasn't
been
seen
before
and
here
in
in
mountain
view,
that
sometimes
you
may
see
in
palo
alto
or
you
see
sometimes
some
iterations
of
it
way
back
in
the
day
when
santana
rose
was
first
brought
in
right
and
commissioners,
I
believe
jan
had
mentioned
something
about
wide
pathways,
similar
to
what
they
have
down
there,
and
I
completely
understand
why
that
would
be
important
for
members
of
the
community
to
be
able
to
walk
in
that
area
and
feel
comfortable
to
go
to
any
spot
without
fuel
impedement,
especially
when
you
factor
in
the
residential
community
that's
being
built
right
across
the
way
these
are
challenging
times,
but
these
are
also
fun
times,
because
you're
seeing
progress
be
made
step
by
step,
I'm
in
favor
of
the
project.
H
D
D
Like
many
have
mentioned,
I
appreciate
the
pedestrian
improvements
and
I
think
my
larger
concern
with
merlon
dyer
had
been
trying
to
think
about
the
natural
pathways
that
people
make
in
between
the
different
components,
particularly
in
a
phased
approach,
and
so
I
think
those
improvements
in
this
iteration
are
significant
and
notable
the
national
does
to
me
and
show
improvements.
D
It
doesn't
quite
look
as
imposing
as
the
earlier
design,
and
I
also
I
really
liked
the
advanced
planning
was
gone-
was
invested
into
to
figure
out
the
shared
parking
and
like
the
chair,
for
instance,
that's
like
I
do
hope
that,
regardless
of
who
who
is
owning
and
occupying
these
buildings,
that
that
continues
to
be
an
arrangement
that
is
able
to
afford
overall,
I'm
comfortable
with
the
exceptions
that
are
being
asked
for
for
height
and
far
to
accommodate
the
tdrs
and
I've
been
holding
back
a
little
bit.
D
I'm
curious
to
hear
and
the
commissioners,
because
to
me
the
original
visual
design
is
is
more
is
is
something
I
would
prefer.
I
think
I,
as
as
we've
talked
about
iconic
is,
is
subjective
and,
and
I
think
a
lot
of
effort
had
been
invested
in
to
try
and
accommodate
what
the
direction
had
been
from
council.
D
I
I'd
like
to
flag
the
comments
that
we
received
from
ronnie
bryan.
I
I
don't
know
that
this
is
the
corner
that
seems
to
fit
with
this
project
to
me,
but
I
I
know
there
are
architects
and
designers
and
people
who
have
spent
a
lot
more
time
and
effort
on
this.
I
overall
be
happy,
I'm
fine
to
support
the
project,
but
I
would
like
to
hear
a
little
bit
more
public
comment
about
whether
this
fits
into
the
neighborhood.
D
I
know
we've
wanted
for
some
time
to
see
different
architecture
that
makes
it
more
interesting
and
exciting,
but
in
this
particular
project
in
this
context,
with
what's
happening
across
the
street
and
with
a
grace
jar,
I
development.
It's
just
the
curved
linear,
linear
nature.
Just
doesn't
work
for
me,
but
it
does
not
seem.
I
feel
like
I'm
the
voice
on
that,
and
I
appreciate
that
so
many
people
have
been
working
to
try
and
make
this
iconic
and
I'm
excited
to
see
the
final
face
of
merlin
guyer
come
together
and
support
lasd.
I
So
I
guess
I'll
go
ahead
and
neither
city's
attorney's
city
attorney's
office
can
help
me.
Is
it
okay?
If
I
move
the
environmental
planning
commission
recommend
to
the
city
council,
the
the
staff
recommendations,
their
staff
recommendations
is
printed
in
the
staff
report
or
do
you
do
you
need
me
to
read
to
read
those
aloud.
A
No
second,
mr
dempsey,.
H
I
A
A
C
The
the
only
thing
I'll
I'll
add
at
the
request
of
eric
anderson
is
just
to
mention
that
we
are
planning
to
hold
the
may
4th
epc
meeting.
So
we
will
have
at
least
one
agenda
item
for
for
that
night.
A
And
if
you,
I
guess,
maybe,
and
whether
anybody
has
heard
is
there
eric
mentioned
last
time
that
there
was
still
discussion
on
how
face-to-face
might
come
back?
Is
that
still
is
that
discussion,
the
city
manager's
office
still
progressing?
C
Ultimately,
city
council
has
to
formally
evaluate
it
on
a
30-day
basis
under
provisions
from
the
state,
but
that
virtual
meetings
will
continue
at
this
point,
at
least
through
around
mid-may
and
council,
will
will
next
evaluate
whether
it
continues
past
that
that
date,
at
an
early
meeting
in
may.
H
Yes,
alex
had
brought
up
this
issue
before
so
I'd
I'd
like
for
him
to
be
able
to
expand
on
it
because
it
was
his
idea,
but
in
the
private
meeting
we
had,
we
had
asked
if
the
city
had
been
able
to
reach
the
family
that
was
over
by
latham
and
escuela,
and
I
believe,
there's
been
an
update
alex
if
you'd
like
to
do
the
honors
and
share
what
what's
been
relayed
to
us.
