PC Res 3820
RESOLUTION NO. 3820
BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF CAMPBELL RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL
ADOPT A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION FOR THE MIXED-
USE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT PROPOSED FOR 1677 S. BASCOM
AVENUE. APPLICATION OF MR. ANTHONY HO. FILE NO.: PLN2006-
128
After notification and public hearing, as specified by law, and after presentation by the
Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the Planning
Commission did determine that the adoption of a Mitigated Negative Declaration
provides full and adequate environmental review for Approval of a Planned
Development Permit (PLN2006-128) to allow a mixed-use development including
14,045 square feet of retail space, at-grade and below-grade parking and 123
condominium units.
The Planning Commission finds as follows:
1. An Initial Study has been prepared for the Boyce project located at 1677 S. Bascom
Avenue, which provides documentation for the factual basis for concluding that a
Mitigated Negative Declaration may be adopted since no substantial evidence
exists, in light of the whole record, that the project may have a significant effect on
the environment. The project consists of the development of a new four-story
mixed-use building, and the removal of thirty-five protected trees.
2. The Mitigated Negative Declaration describes the reasons that the Boyce Project will
not have a significant effect on the environment and therefore does not require the
preparation of an Environmental Impact Report, pursuant to the California
Environmental Quality Act Guidelines.
3. There are no responsible agencies or trustee agencies responsible for resources
affected by the Boyce Project.
4. The City of Campbell provided a Notice of Intent to adopt a Mitigated Negative
Declaration to the public via the Campbell Express and the County Clerk.
5. The City of Campbell provided a 20-day public review period of the draft Mitigated
Negative Declaration pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act
Guidelines. The 20-day public review period was between June 6, 2007 and June
26,2007.
6. The mitigation measures identified in the Mitigated Negative Declaration are
included as conditions of approval of the Site and Architectural Review Permit.

7. The Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of
the Planning Commission.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and
concludes that:
1. 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.
2. The Custodian of the Record for the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Initial Study is
the City Clerk of the City of Campbell, located at 70 North First Street, Campbell,
California.
