Dear Mr. Pasek,
Your applicant for a Site and Architectural Review Permit for the construction of a new
warehouse building located at 911 S. McGlincy Lane has been incomplete since March
3, 2009. As the City has not been contacted by you this year to discuss the completeness
issues and over 360 days (Original 180 day time period with one 180 day extension
allowed per Municipal Code) have passed since the project was deemed incomplete,
your application has expired and is closed with no action taken.
If you are still interested in pursuing a Site and Architectural Review Permit (and all
other associated discretionary permits necessary for you project), you will be required
to submit a new application for review. This will include new submittal documents and
the payment of all fees. If you should have any questions regarding this notice, please
feel free to contact me at (408) 866-2142 or by email at stevepC cityofcampbell.com.
Sincerely,
Steve Prosser

911 S. McGlincy Lane
Dear Mr. Pasek,
Thank you for your submittal of a Site & Architectural Review for the construction of a
new 6,690 square foot warehouse building located at 911 S. McGlincy Lane. The
subject property is presently zoned M-1-S (Light Industrial) and is designated as Light
Industrial on the City's General Plan Land Use Map and currently is developed with an
existing office/warehouse building and lumber yard. The proposed application will
require approval by the Planning Commission and will be decided upon at a public
hearing.
Your application has been deemed incomplete. The following additional information,
application and details are needed in order to deem your application complete and in
order to schedule you project for the next available Site and Architectural Review
Committee and Planning Commission agendas:
1. Variance Application: The proposed construction of the new single story warehouse
building does not provide the required side and rear yard setback. A minimum
setback requirement of five feet or one-half the building wall height (from grade to
top of roof) is required in the M-1-S Zoning District. Therefore, you are required to
either:
a. Revise the project plans to comply with the site development standards or;
b. Submit a completed application for a Variance, including the payment of fees.
A Variance will be required for the reduced side yard setbacks, but may not be
required for the rear setback, if the Planning Commission allows a lesser setback.
The Planning Commission may require additional landscaping to be included on the
site above the minimum eight percent required and increased setbacks at the front
.1009-21-- 911 S. McGlin~ _ane Pa eq 2 of 4
of the property through the Site and Architectural Permit approval process.
2. Conditional Use Permit: Your operational description included with the application
provides that the hours of operation for the project site are 5:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
daily. Businesses that operate before 6:00 a.m. and/or after 11:00 p.m. shall obtain
a Conditional Use Permit approval for Late Night Operational Hours. You are
required to either modify the proposed hours of operation or submit a Conditional
Use Permit application for Late Night Operational Hours, including the payment of
fees.
3. Site Plan: The following information needs to be provided on the site plan:
a. Revise the site plan to show the correct lot square footage or property
dimension. The property dimensions provided show that the lot is 13,431 square
feet rather than the 13,566 square feet show on sheet A1.2.
b. Revise the existing site plan to show the covered storage areas currently on the
site.
c. Reduce the building square footage to comply with the maximum Floor Area
Ration (FAR) requirements for the M-1-S Zoning District or provide written
justification that circumstances warrant the proposed increase in lot coverage
(and the associated reduction in parking, setbacks, landscape, etc.) The
maximum square footage for a building on the subject property is 5,372 square
feet or .40 FAR unless approved via an exception by the Planning Commission
through the Site and Architectural Permit approval process. The project plans
show a 6,690 square foot building that exceeds the maximum square footage
allowed.
d. Revise the site plan to meet the minimum parking requirement. Staff has
calculated a parking demand of 17 parking spaces for the proposed structure.
The project plans and summary states that there will be 15 parking spaces on
site creating a parking deficiency of 2 parking spaces.
e. Indicate the location and uses of buildings on adjacent properties.
f. Indicate on the site plan that all utilities will be installed underground.
4. Floor Plan: The following information needs to be provided on the floor plan:
a. Provide location of the trash enclosure and verify compliance with all applicable
fire and building codes for the storage of refuse inside a structure (sprinklers,
barriers, etc.).
5. Landscaping: Revise the site plan to show a minimum of eight percent landscaping
and the correct square footage of landscaping required. The project plans show a
landscape calculation that reduced the amount of landscaping, based on subtracting
the building square footage out of the lot size. This is incorrect. The landscaping
requirement is a minimum of eight percent of the lot regardless of development on
site.

6. Outreach to Neighborhood: Please explain what outreach you have done, or plan to
do, with the surrounding property owners.
7. Architecture & Design: Staff has concerns regarding the proposed building
elevations. Staff continues to recommend the following:
a. Provide a building design of similar quality to the new construction that has
occurred on Cristich Lane.
b. Modify the building design to break up the monotonous building fagade. This may
consist of providing stepped height, sloped rooflines and upgraded storefronts
increasing the amount of glass used.
c. Provide greater variation of building materials along the length of the building to
break up the appearance.
8. Public Works Department Completeness Comments:
a. Provide the City with an updated (within the last six months) preliminary title
report for the subject site.
b. Provide a set of preliminary grading plans for review.
c. Submit calculations that are consistent with the submitted preliminary grading
plans that show the proposed project will meet storm water requirements
pertaining to the City's NPDES permit C.3 provisions (flow based or volume
based on-site design measures). The proposed plan should show storm water
on-site treatment elements. The C.3 provision requires that approximately 80% of
the on-site storm water drainage is treated. Once more information is provided;
further completeness comments could be added.
d. On the site plans show the amount, in square footage, of:
1. Existing impervious area;
2. Proposed impervious area; and,
3. Proposed pervious area.
e. On the site plans clearly show all street information (show centerline, the
distance from the street centerline to property line, dimension widths of the entire
roadway), existing facilities and off-site street improvement dimensions
(sidewalk, curb, gutter, driveways, utility poles, etc.). Show dimensions of the
existing park strip, existing overhead utility lines, show locations of existing trees,
and include a legible site plan scale and other relevant information in the public
right of way.
Your application was distributed to the Building Division, Fire Department, Planning
Division, and Public Works Department. In addition to the Planning Division and Public
Works Division completeness comments contained in this letter, please find enclosed
conditions from the Building Division and the Fire Department.
