Site & Arch (Withdrawn) 1998Transmittal To: From: Subject: City of Campbell -- Community Development Department 70 N. First Street~ Campbell, CA 95008 Sharon Fierro Tim J. Haley Applicant interesting in Reactivating Application (S 98-10) Date: February 24, 2000 Gary Robinson was in today asking about the process to reactivate his application. I gave him a copy of Barbara's last correspondence. I indicate that it would be appropriate to schedule a meeting to discuss his concerns or issues with the items discussed in the September 14, 1998 letter. Could this be assigned to a capable planner? Thanks Tim September 14, 1998 Gary Robinson 480 E. McGlincey Lane Campbell, CA 95008 Subject: Office Addition at 480 E. McGlincey Lane (S 98-10) Thank you for submittal of your application for an addition to your office building. The plans have been circulated for comment to the City's Architectural Advisor, Building Department, Public Works Department, and the County Fire Department, as well as review by our department. The responses from Fire, Public Works and Building are attached. Planning Department and the Architectural Advisor's comments are as follows: Circulation (comments from front of parcel to back) We can foresee "informal" parking across from the front entry as enough space has been left for this to happen, and the closest striped spaces are far to the rear. Such informal parking would most likely present circulation hazards. The odd shape of this parcel and the 25' setback for parking do combine to make this a difficult parcel. We suggest the possible use of the front area for informal parking be eliminated by narrowing all paved area on the side of the building to the minimum 20' width. If the narrowing was used to place landscaping on the north side of the new building, this would not only reduce the likelihood of the "informal" parking, but would enhance the appearance of the new building. Also, the design should not require the use ofbollards to prevent vehicles from scraping the building's colunm(s). Landscaping with curbs next to the building has this third advantage. The Fire Department is requiring the minimum 20 foot driveway to be free and clear of obstructions, specifically the existing power pole. Thus either the pole needs to be moved, or the building reconfigured. 2 The spaces closest to the rear of the building, the handicap space and the space next to it, do not meet the 25 foo~ backout standard. 3. Spaces 21 and 22 probably should be angled so the swing arc into them is not so sharp. 4. A copy of the Fire Department turnaround layouts referred to in their conditions is attached. Building Appearance The Architectural Advisor commented that the building is too boxy and bland; it needs more life and integrity. Staffbelieves that if the columns were shown on the exterior elevation, and also the shadows which would be cast by the roof and the columns, the building would "read" as not so boxy. The Architectural Advisor is a member of the three-member Site and Architectural Review Committee. Once the application is complete, accurate, and to the standards that the Committee has previously indicated to staff that it expects, the item will be scheduled for Committee review. The Committee will make a recommendation to the Planning Commission. 70 North First Street · Campbell, California 95008.1423 · TEL 408.866.2130 · F^X 408.866.8381 · TDD 408.866.2790 The second story of the propertyline wall will be visible to the public above the one-story building adjacent. It should present a more attractive appearance, and its design should relate to the design of the other sides of the building. The design of the building on the adjacent property to the west is an example of a solution which accomplishes this. 3. The Architectural Advisor independently also made comments regarding the power pole and the backout distance. 4. The building is required to have 2 bath rooms which meet handicap accessibility standards (Title 24). The number of parking spaces provided do not appear to meet code requirements. The requirement is 1 space per 225 square feet of office building floor area, as measured to the outside walls, plus 1 per 400 square feet for the storage building. Missing or Incorrect 1. Submittal of a copy of the Policy of Legal Title Insurance ( to indicate that the parcel was legally created). 2. Photos of the site and the surrounding sites. 3. The Site and Architectural Committee is sensitive to the quality of the presentation elevations. Submittal of one good colored elevation would be best. It can also be used as the presentation exhibit at the Planning Commission. 4. A sample board of the color chips and stucco finish. 5. Indicate the columns on the elevations. 6. On the floor plans, the size of the columns indicated on the second floor are one half the width of the columns on the first floor. 7. The windows sills are shown as knee height; is this what is intended? 8. Many interior walls end butting into one of the exterior windows. 9. The bathroom has an exter/or window that starts at knee height and extends to a 7.5' height. Even if the glass is to be one-way, this usually makes the people inside uncomfortable. 10. The angled portion of the west elevation should be shown as a straight projection onto a line which parallels the west building side. A copy of this letter is being sent to Lisa O'Malley, and a meeting scheduled to address the issues. Should you have any questions, please give me a call at 866-2193.
