OF CAMPBELL APPROVING A MODIFICATION (PLN2015-170)
TO A PREVIOUSLY APPROVED AND MODIFIED PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT PERMIT (PLN2013-337 / PLN2015-48) TO
ALLOW EXPANSION OF AN APPROVED PHASE (TWO-PHASE)
DEVELOPMENT CONSISTING OF 90 TOWNHOMES AND 28
APARTMENT UNITS WITH A PARKING MODIFICATION PERMIT
(PLN2015-172) TO ALLOW AN EIGHT SPACE REDUCTION IN
THE REQUIRED NUMBER OF GUEST PARKING STALLS, FOR

AND 488 SAM CAVA LANE; AND 186 GILMAN AVENUE.
After notification and public hearing, as specified by law and after presentation by the
Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed.
The City Council finds as follows with regard to approval of a Modification (PLN2015-170)
to a previously approved and modified Planned Development Permit (PLN2013-337 /
PLN2015-48) and Parking Modification Permit (PLN2015-172):
Environmental Finding
1. Based on the proposed revised project description, the environmental review prepared
for the Infill Environmental ChecklisUMitigated Negative Declaration, and a
supplemental analysis, the City has concluded that the proposed revised project would
not result in any new significant impacts not previously disclosed in the adopted Infill
Environmental ChecklisUMitigated Negative Declaration nor would it result in a
substantial increase in the magnitude of any significant environmental impact
previously identified in the Infill Environmental ChecklisUMitigated Negative
Declaration. For these reasons, an addendum to the adopted Infill Environmental
ChecklisUMitigated Negative Declaration for the revised Dillon Avenue Townhomes
and Apartments Project has been prepared and a supplemental or subsequent
Environmental Impact Report or Infill Environmental ChecklisUMitigated Negative
Declaration is not required for the proposed revised project.
Evidentiary Findings
1. At its meeting of November 3, 2014, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2185
approving a Planned Development Permit fora planned residential development
consisting of 81 townhome units (fee title ownership), 19 apartment (rental) units, and
associated on- and off-site improvements. The Planned Development Permit was
approved subject to a Tentative Vesting Subdivision Map approved by Resolution No.
11736 on October 21, 2014.
2. At its meeting of July 22, 2015, the City Council adopted Resolution Nos. 11864 and
11865, approving a Modification to the approved Tentative Vesting Subdivision Map
and Planned Development Permit, allowing development of the project in two phases
(i.e., recordation of a tract map and issuance of building and grading permits).
City Council Ordinance No. 2195
Approval of a Modified Planned Development Permit and
Parking Modification Permit
Pape 2 of 5
3. The Tract Map for Phase 1 was approved by the City Council on October 6, 2015 and
has been successfully recorded.
4. The proposed Modification would allow incorporation of three additional properties into
the project (less than '/z acre), allowing the addition of nine townhomes and nine
apartment units, increasing the total unit count from 100 to 118.
5. The expanded project site is a 5 acre assemblage of multiple properties, including a
former portion of the City's corporation yard that was purchased by the developer.
6. The expanded project site is generally located near the southeast intersection of Sam
Cava Lane and Dillon Avenue, abutting the Campbell Public Works Maintenance
Corporation Yard to the south and the Los Gatos Creek Trail to the west.
7. The expanded project site is zoned P-D (Planned Development) as shown on the
Campbell Zoning Map.
8. The expanded project site is designated Commercial/Med.-High Density Residential
(14-27 units/gr. acre) and High Density Residential (21-27 units/gr. acre) as shown on
the Campbell General Plan Map. A portion of the project site is within the boundaries of
the South of Campbell Avenue (SOCA) Plan, as incorporated within the Campbell
General Plan Appendix Al-3.
9. The density of the expanded project is consistent with the allowable land use and
maximum density permitted by the Commercial/Med.-High Density Residential (14-27
units/g r. acre) and High Density Residential (21-27 units/g r. acre) General Plan land
use designations.
10. The expanded project would be consistent with the following SOCA and General Plan
policies and strategies. These policies encourage high quality development that is
oriented to the public street, and which is sensitive of the interface with the Los Gatos
Creek Trail.
• Policy LUT-16.2: Building Orientation: Orient buildings to a public street.
• Strategy LUT-16.2a: Residential Entries: Locate building entries facing the streets
for all residential units located along a public street.
• Strategy LUT-16.2c: Visibility: Ensure that Residential projects are designed to
provide visibility into the core of the project where the project adjoins streets or the
Los Gatos Creek Trail. Public parking for trail users is encouraged.
• Policy LUT-16.3: Building and Site Design: Encourage high quality building and site
design in the SOCA Area.
• Strategy LUT-16.3a: Residential Entries: Design and Landscape screen structures
within SOCA area to minimize the perceived mass of the building as viewed from
the Los Gatos Creek Trail and to enhance the project's appearance as viewed from
Highway 17.
City Council Ordinance No. 2195
Approval of a Modified Planned Development Permit and
Parking Modification Permit
Paoe 3 of 5
• Strategy LUT-16.2b: Access to Los Gatos Creek Trail: Ensure the provision of
public pedestrian/bicycle access points to the Los Gatos Creek Trail for new
development and redevelopment in the SOCA Area.
11. The expanded project would also be consistent with the following General Plan policies
and strategies specified herein that encourage an overall "smart-growth" approach to
development within the City in that it would place high density, transit-oriented housing
in proximity to the Campbell Light Rail Station and Downtown Campbell:
• Strategy LUT-1.5a: Transit-Oriented Development: Encourage transit-oriented
developments including employment centers such as office and research and
development facilities and the city's highest density residential projects by
coordinating the location, intensity, and mix of land uses with transportation
resources, such as Light Rail.
• Strategy LUT-2.11: Public Transit: Coordinate with regional transportation agencies
including VTA and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) to improve
public transportation service and promote public transit as a viable alternative to
driving, particularly within the Priority Development Areas (PDA).
• Strategy LUT-3.1c: High Density Residential: Allow higher residential densities in
the North of Campbell Area (NOCA), South of Campbell Area (SOCA), and areas
near the Light Rail stations as an incentive to redevelop older, less intensive uses
(see individual plans for allowed densities) accessible to public transit.
12. As conditioned, the expanded project includes 230 private (garage) parking spaces
and 51 guest parking spaces (inclusive of eight motorcycle spaces, pursuant to CMC
Sec.21.28.065) where 229 private (garage) parking spaces and 59 guest parking
spaces are required. Due to the deficiency of 8 parking spaces, an application for a
Parking Modification Permit is required.
13. Due the closing of existing driveways, the project will result in the net increase of eight
additional on-street parking stalls, four of which will be time-limited to minimize vehicle
conflicts with the City Corporation yard.
14. Since the project would have apartment units and townhomes with entrances facing
the public street, the counting of a net increase of on-street parking stalls may be
viewed as reasonably related to the project because guests visiting the street-side
buildings would likely park along the street, rather than within the interior of the site.
15. As conditioned, the project would maintain a parity between the on-site deficiency and
off-site increase of parking stalls.
16. Additionally, as conditioned, the project's apartment component would participate in
the VTA "Eco Pass" program to encourage public transportation usage.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the City Council further finds and concludes
that:
City Council Ordinance No. 2195
Approval of a Modified Planned Development Permit and
Parking Modification Permit
Paae 4 of 5
1. The expanded development will clearly result in a more desirable environment and use
of the land than would be possible under any other zoning district classification.
2. The expanded development will be compatible with the General Plan of the City and
will aid in the harmonious development of the immediate area.
3. The expanded development will not result in allowing more residential units than would
be allowed by other residential zoning districts, which are consistent with the General
Plan designation of the property.
4. The expanded development will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of
the neighborhood or the City as a whole.
5. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the Conditions
of Approval and the impacts of the project.
6. There is a reasonable relationship between the use of the fees imposed upon the
project and the type of development project.
7. Due to the unique nature and circumstances of the project, or special development
features, the anticipated number of parking spaces necessary to serve the use or
structure is less than that required by the applicable off-street parking standard, and
would be satisfied by the existing or proposed number of parking spaces, as supported
by review of the applicant's documentation and/or a parking demand study prepared by
a qualified transportation engineer accepted by the decision-making body.
8. Conditions of approval have been incorporated into the project to ensure the long-term
adequacy of the provided off-street parking.
9. Approval of the parking modification permit will further the purpose of this chapter.
10. No substantial evidence has been presented from which a reasonable argument could
be made that shows that the project, as currently presented and subject to the required
conditions of approval, will have a significant adverse impact on the environment.
After due consideration of all evidence presented, the City Council of the City of Campbell
does ordain as follows:
SECTION ONE: That this Ordinance be adopted to approve a Modification (PLN2015-170)
to a previously approved and modified Planned Development Permit (PLN2013-337 /
