Summary
Agenda Item No: 18
Agenda Date: June 16, 2009
Application Summary:
Consider General Plan Amendments, Application Nos. GPA-2008-01, EA-2009-05, City of
Cupertino, Citywide (continued from May 5):
a) Adopt a draft 2007-2014 Housing Element and forward to the State Department of
Housing and Community Development (HCD)
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council review the 2007-2014 Draft Housing Element including
the Policy and Goals section, the Housing Resources section and the Tier 1 Sites Inventory and
direct staff to forward the draft Housing Element to HCD for review.
Background:
The City Council began reviewing the sites at the June 2, 2009 City Council meeting and
directed staff to analyze additional sites on North Tantau and look at potentially underutilized
land on existing apartment sites. At the June 10, :2009 Council study session, staff returned with
a list of sites, suggested by Council members, that staff believed would meet HCD requirements
and a list of sites that staff did not believe would meet HCD requirements.
Of that list, Council agreed that Glenbrook Apartments, The Villages at Cupertino and the
former Morley Brothers site could be moved t~~ the Tier 1 list. This 334 units shown on
Attachment B along with 296 units located in the Heart of the City which are currently listed in
Tier 1 equal 630 units. This leaves a balance of 87 units needed to meet the RHNA balance of
717 units. Council then gave staff a list of sites that needed additional analysis which could be
rezoned and submitted to HCD on the list of avail~ible sites.
The sites discussed were as follows:
• 10300 and 10400 N. Tantau Ave.
• 10670 N. Tantau. Ave.
• 19020 Pruneridge Ave.
• 20705 Valley Green Dr.
Out of the four sites that staff performed further analysis on, only two could potentially meet the
HCD requirements for being listed as an available housing site - 20705 Valley Green Dr. and
10670 N. Tantau Ave. (highlighted on Table F.4). The properties located at 10670 and 10710 N.
Tantau are vacant and the leasing agent for the pr~~perty has told staff he does not have any leads

on future tenants. Staff will continue to research tllis property and will provide a verbal update at
the June 16, 2009 City Council meeting.
As for the other listed properties, both 10300 and ]_0400 N. Tantau are owned and fully occupied
by Apple and have had significant tenant improvements valued at over $5,000,000. The value of
the tenant improvements along with the value of the building make it unlikely that HCD would
consider this property likely to redevelop in the next five years. Staff also contacted the leasing
agent for 19020 Pruneridge Ave. to confirm the property was fully leased and occupied. The two
buildings located on this site are leased by Cisco and Satellite Dialysis which have long term
leases.
Additionally, staff also reviewed a list of apartment complexes provided by citizens for
additional potential (see Attachment B). It does not appear the three complexes suggested would
meet the requirements since they do not have any large green spaces where units can be added.

Re: Residential Overlay Zoning
Dear Vera:
Thank you for contacting me on behalf of Tantau Buildings Assoc's, LLC, the owners of
10670 & 10700 Tantau Avenue. As we understand your inquiry, we would be interested in
having our properties added to the Residential Overlay list for up to R-25 zoning. We
understand the council will vote on this June 16, 2009.
As discussed, we understand that this zoning overly would simply be an addition to our present
use alternatives and not preclude us from continuing to pursuer Office & R&D uses. Please
contact us with any questions or once the Council actually decides to add our property to the
Residential list.
Sincerely,
Philip Mahoney

June 16, 2009
Dear Mayor Mahoney and City Council:
I write to respond to inquiries brought up at the last City Council meeting about
adding additional properties into the housing element, including three properties
we either own or lease.
The three properties in question are 10300/: 0400 Tantau Avenue, 20705 Valley
Green Drive, and 10432/10406 Ridgeview Court.
Apple has purchased the properties at 10301)/10400 Tantau Avenue specifically to
integrate into our new campus. The buildings have had major renovations and are
fully occupied. As the staff report correctly points out, these buildings will not be
converted to housing, and do not fit the criteria to be included in the Housing
Element. We respectfully request that thesE; properties not be included in the
housing element and maintain their current zoning.
20705 Valley Green Drive is a property we lease, and which we have recently
made major renovations. We plan on occuX~ying that building for the foreseeable
future and thus it does not seem to meet the HCD criteria.
Finally 10432/10406 Ridgeview Court was also purchased for our new campus. It
currently has a housing overlay which we a:re not seeking to have removed.
However, it will in all likelihood be integrated into our new campus.
We appreciate the difficult task of determining what areas in Cupertino are likely
to be converted to housing in the next five }ears. We look forward to continuing to
work with you to both assure Cupertino meets its housing requirements while at
the same time preserving our critical commercial and office areas.
Very truly yours,
D. Michael Foulkes
