SEPTEMBER 2013 APPLE CAMPUS 2 PROJECT EIR
III. COMMENTS AND RESPONSES
Master Response#1: Significant and Unavoidable Impacts
Certain traffic-related impacts a�e identified in the Draft EIR as significant and una�oidable even
though feasible mitigation measures are identified that��ould reduce the impacts to a less-than-
significant level. Several commenters suggest that these signif�icant and una�oidable findings a�e not
appropriate. Pursuant to CEQA Section 21081(a)(2),the significant and unavoidable conclusion is
appropriate in these cases because implementation of the identified mitigation measures is not��ithin
the responsibilit�-and jurisdiction of the CEQA lead agenc5-,��hich is the Cit�-of Cupertino. For
instance,implementation of Mitigation Measure TRANS-1 (construction of an additional��estbound
lane at the intersection of Wolfe Roacl/I-280 Northbound Ramps)��ould reduce Impact TRANS-1
(unacceptable operations at the intersection of Wolfe Road/I-280 Northbound Ramps resulting from
project traf£ic)to a less-than-significant level. Because the I-280 Northbound Ramps are a State
transportation facilit�-under the jurisdiction of the State of California Depa�tment of Transportation
(Caltrans),neither the project sponsor nor the Cit�-of Cupertino can ensure implementation of
Mitigation Measure TRANS-L Thus,lacicing any assurance that Mitigation Measure TRANS-1 can
and��il1 be implemented b�-Caltrans,the Draft EIR concludes that Impact TRANS-1 is significant and
una�oidable not��ithstanding the CitS-'s and Apple's commitment to continue to��orlc��ith the
agencies that ha�e jurisdiction over implementation of Mitigation Measure TRANS-1 and other,
simila�measures outside the Citv's control.
Pursuant to CEQA Gz�idelines Section 15126.4, "[m]itigation measures must be full�-enforceable
through permit conditions, agreements, or other legally-binding instruments." (See also CEQA Section
21081.6(b).) Because the Cit�-lacks such legally-binding instruments to ensure that Mitigation
Measure TRANS-1 and other mitigation measures outside its responsibilit�-and jurisdiction a�e fu11�-
enforceable,the Cit�-cannot guarantee implementation of such mitigation measures. Therefore,
identi�-ing Impact TRANS-1 (and other impacts for��hich the identified mitigation measures outside
the jurisdiction of Cupertino) as significant and una�oidable is appropriate.
The identification of these impacts requiring eitra-jurisdictional mitigation as signif�icant and una�oid-
able is also consistent��ith the findings required to be macle b�-leacl agencies for each of the signifi-
cant environmental effects identif�ied in an EIR pursuant to C'EQA Gz�idelines Section 15091 and
Public Resources Code Section 21081(a). One of these findings (`Such changes or alterations are
��ithin the responsibilit�-and jurisdiction of another public agenc5-and not the agenc5-malcing the
finding. Such changes have been aclopted b5-such other agenc5-or can and should be aclopted b5-such
other agenc5-.")��ould be made b�-the Cit�-for each of the significant una�oidable impacts for��hich a
mitigation measure��ould reduce the impact to a less-than-significant level, but the mitigation measure
is not under the control of the Cit�-. The mitigation measures outside the responsibilit�-and jurisdiction
of the Cit�-require that Apple fund,help fund, or construct the phy-sical improvements,if and��hen the
responsible jurisdictions grant necessai}-approvals for the mitigations. This requuement is incorpo-
rated into the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the project.
Some commenters have stated that because certain traffic impacts ha�e been identified as signif�icant
and una�oidable,the Cit�-«ould ha�e no obligation to mitigate these impacts. Such statements a�e
incoi7ect. Leacl agencies must identifi-feasible mitigation measures for all significant impacts per
CEQA Sections 21002, 21002.1(a), 21081(a); and C'EQA Sections 15091(a), 15021(a)(2), 15126.4(a).
As required b5-CEQA Sections 21080(a) and (a)(1), "��ith respect to each significant effect,"the lead
agenc5-must identi�-"[c]hanges or alterations [that] have been required in,or incorporated into,the
project��hich��ill mitigate or avoid"the impact. The lead agenc5-may then eiplain,if applicable,that

LSA ASSQCIATES, INC. RESPONSE TO CQMMENTS DOCUMENT

III. COMMENTS AND RESPONSES
implementation of the measures is not��ithin its responsibilit�-and jurisdiction and the measures "have
been, or can and should be, aclopted b5-that other agenc5-"(C'EQA Section 21081(a)(2)) and/or that the
measures a�e infeasible (CEQA Section 20181(a)(3)). The leacl agenc5-may find that certain impacts
remain significant despite mitigation, but conclude that ovei7iding benefits out��eigh these effects
(CEQA Section 20181(b));ho��ever,this finding does not relieve the lead agenc5-of its obligations to
identifi-feasible mitigation measures under C'EQA Section 20181(a).
If the proposed project is approved,the Cit�-��i11 require that Apple: (i)��orlc in good faith��ith the
applicable jurisdictions to permit the identified phy-sical improvements and (ii) fund the estimated
cost identified in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for each of the eitra-jurisdio-
tional mitigation measures identified in the Draft EIR These funds«i11 be submitted to the agenc5-
��ith jurisdiction over each improvement for use in constructing the improvement or an altemate
improvement in the project vicinit�-that can be demonstrated,to the satisfaction of the Cit�-of
Cupertino Director of Public Worlcs,to reduce the identif�ied traffic-related impacts. In addition,
Apple has agreed to collaborate and coordinate«ith these other jurisdictions to construct and/or fund
the identified mitigations��hen the jurisdictions approve the measures. Where physical mitigation
measures a�e feasible but outside of the Cit�-'s jurisdiction,the Cit�-��i11 continue to monitor the
progress of implementing the mitigation measures and��ill continue to��orlc��ith Apple and the other
agencies. In this��ay,the mitigation measures identified in the Draft EIR a�e designed to comply-��ith
the requirement of CEQA to mitigate significant impacts to the eitent feasible.
Master Response#2: Project Merits
Pursuant to CEQA Gz�idelines Section 15088, a lead agency is required to evaluate "comments on
environmental issues"received on a Draft EIR. Similarly,pursuant to CEQA Gz�idelines Section
15132, a Final EIR must provide responses on1�-to "signif�icant envuonmental points raised in the
revie« and consultation process."Accordingly,detailed responses are provided on1�-for comments
received on the Draft EIR that raise issues conceming the"environment."As defined in CEQA
Section 21060.5, "environment means the phy-sical conditions��hich eiist��ithin the a�ea��hich��i11
be affected b5-a proposed project,including land,air,«ater,minerals,flora,fauna,noise, objects of
historic or aesthetic significance."
Economic costs and benefits a�e outside the scope of environmental issues as defined b�-CEQA and
need not be evaluated in an EIR C'EQA Gz�idelines Section 15131 states: "Economic or social effects
of a project shall not be treated as significant effects on the envuonment. An EIR ma�-trace a chain of
cause and effect from a proposed decision on a project through anticipated economic or social
changes resulting from the project to phy-sical changes caused in turn b�-the economic or social
changes. The intermediate economic or social changes need not be anal�-zed in an�-detail greater than
necessa��-to trace the chain of cause and effect. The focus of the anal�-sis shall be on the phy-sical
changes."
Pursuant to CEQA,the Draft EIR is a disclosure document that identifies the significant impacts of
the project, but does not contain conclusions about the merits of the project,including��hether the
project is "too big,"��hether the project is right for the community,or��hether the project should be
approved. Those decisions a�e made b�-the Cit�-of Cupertino Cit�-Council,follo«ing consideration
of the recommendations of the Planning Commission. Rather,the Draft EIR evaluates the size of the
project in the conteit of applicable significance thresholds identified b�-the Cit�-. This evaluation

includes an assessment of��hether the size of the project��ould create a significant adverse effect on
the phy-sical environment. For instance,if a project building is sufficientl�-tall that it��ould blocic a
public vie�� of a scenic vista,that��ould be considered a significant impact pursuant to the Cit�-'s
significance thresholds, as eiplained on pages 207 to 211 of the Draft EIR.
Comments conve5-ing support of or opposition to the project,or comments pertaining solely-to
economic or social effects of the project,��ithout reference to environmental issues, a�e included in
this Response to Comments Document, but detailed responses a�e not provided. Ho«ever, decision-
malcers��ill talce these comments into account��hen considering project approval even if the�-do not
relate to envuonmental issues or the adequac5-of the EIR.

Pursuant to CEQA Gz�idelines Section 15126.4, a mitigation measure must be"roughly proportionaP'
to the impacts of the project,��hich means that the proposed project is required to pa5-its fair share of
the cost to mitigate an impact that is caused b�-other projects in addition to the proposed project.
Several comments suggest mitigation measures that a�e not directl�-related to and��ould not mitigate
a significant project impact. For eiample, a homeless transition facilit�-��ould not be��a�ranted as a
mitigation measure because the project«ould not result in impacts that«ould be reduced b�-the
homeless transition facilit�-. Simila�ly,mitigation targeting a specif�ic population (e.g., students and
seniors)that is not significantl�-adversel�-affected b5-project impacts is not«a�ranted.
Master Response#4: Nitrogen Deposition
According to the Santa Cla�a Valle�-Habitat Plan, atmospheric nitrogen,including atmospheric
nitrogen generated b�-motor vehicle emissions,is thought to function as an effective fertilizer in
nutrient-poor soils, such as serpentine soils in the Ba�-Area. The buildup of nitrogen over time is
thought to facilitate the invasion and persistence of non-native species that ma�-out-compete native
species in nutrient-poor plant communities. Several comments suggest that the vehicle trips generated
b�-the proposed project��ould malce a significant contribution to the cumulative impact of nitrogen
deposition in the Ba�-Area on nutrient-poor soil communities,including serpentine soil communities
(��hich ha�bor protected species such as the Ba�-checkerspot butterfly). In acldition, several comments
suggest that Apple should be requued to pa5-a Nitrogen Deposition Fee, as requued b5-member
agencies of the Santa Cla�a Valle�-Habitat Plan.
No Si�nif�icant Impact Due to Nitro e� n Deposition. The project��ould not malce a signif�icant
contribution to the cumulative impact of nitrogen deposition on serpentine habitat or the Ba�-
checicerspot butterfl�-for t��o lce�-reasons.
Although the project��ould increase the number of regional vehicle trips,these trips��ould occur at a
distance fa�removed from the locations of serpentine soils. The project site is located in the midst of
an urbanized area,fa�from established clusters of serpentine grasslands (e.g.,in the Coast Range or
habitat south of San Jose). In Appendii E of the Santa Clara Valle�-Habitat Plan(Estimation of
Contributions to Deposition of Nitrogen in Santa Clara Count�-for the Santa Cla�a Valle�-Habitat
Plan),the simulations for nitrogen deposition in serpentine habitats for the Ba�-checicerspot butteifl�-
indicate that almost one-third (30 percent)of the nitrogen deposition derives from mobile emission
sources in the vicinit�-of the habitat areas, 13 percent of the nitrogen deposition comes from other

sources��ithin about 12 miles of the habitat a�eas, and 17 percent of the deposition comes from the
remainder of Santa Clara Count�-. The complete brealcdo«n of simulated nitrogen deposition sources
is sho��n in Figure E-27 of Appendii E of the Habitat Plan. The project site is located over 20 miles
from the center of serpentine and Ba�-checicerspot habitat areas in the Ba�-Area. In addition, as
sho«n in Table V.GS,Projected Housing Demand b�-Cit�-Based on Residential Location of Current
Apple Employees, on page 227 of the Draft EIR,the vast majority of Apple employees��ould live in
places at a distance from serpentine habitat. Therefore,the project��ould not malce a significant
contribution to the cumulative impact of nitrogen deposition in serpentine a�eas,including those
��ithin the Habitat Plan bounda�ies.
In addition, as eiplained on page 134 of the Draft EIR, as part of the project Apple��ould voluntaril�-
pa5-$126,381, an amount equivalent to the Nitrogen Deposition Fee that a project generating 35,106
net ne�� dail�-trips��ould pay if it��ould result in significant impacts related to nitrogen deposition.
In that case,the pa5-ment��ould constitute full mitigation of the impact. Ho��ever, because the
proposed project is not located��ithin the bounda�ies of the Santa Cla�a Valle�-Habitat Plan,��hich
established such a fee for its member agencies,and«ould not create a significant impact due to
nitrogen deposition,the pa5-ment by Apple«ould be voluntai�-. This amount«ould be paid to the
Implementing EntitS-of the Habitat Plan, and is eipected to be used to protect and enhance sensitive
habitat in the region that is subject to degradation due to nitrogen deposition. Thus, even if the
contribution of nitrogen from project vehicle trips«ere considered cumulativel�-considerable,the
payment of this amount��ould ensure that such an impact��ould be less than significant.
Santa Clara Valle�-Habitat Plan A�licabilit�. As stated in the Habitat Plan, "The purpose of this
Plan is to protect and enhance ecological diversit�-and function in the greater portion of Santa Cla�a
County,��hile allo��ing appropriate and compatible gro��th and development in accordance��ith
applicable la��s."The Habitat Plan,therefore,is designed not on1�-to protect and enhance sensitive
habitats and species«ithin the Habitat Plan a�ea, but also to facilitate development(roads,urban
gro��th, and other infrastructure)identified b�-the Habitat Plan pa�ticipants. The Cit�-of Cupertino is
not a Habitat Plan pa�-ticipant and does not receive an�-of the benefits that come��ith participation,
including talce authorization for listed species associated«ith covered activities and projects, or
streamlining of permitting processes. Because the project site is located outside the Habitat Plan
bounda�ies and is not covered b�-the Habitat Plan, as described above,the project applicant is not
required to pa5-Habitat Plan development fees,including the Nitrogen Deposition Fee. Ho��ever, as
discussed above, Apple has voluntarily agreed to pay,in full, an amount equivalent to the Nitrogen
Deposition Fee that the project��ould ha�e had to pa5-had there been significant impacts due to
nitrogen deposition.

Pruneridge Avenue altemative),��hich is anal�-zed on pages 605 to 612 of the Draft EIR. As

Apple maintains that any-public access provided��ithin the project site��ould compromise its privac5-
and securit�-objectives. One of Apple's fundamental project objectives in developing the project is to
consolidate Apple emplo5-ees in a single secure location to ensure privac5-and to promote sha�ed
creativit�-and collaboration and spur invention. The project's landscaped area, ancillai}-spaces, and
buildings��ould also serve to promote interaction among colleagues. The on1�-��a�-that the outside
and ancillai}-spaces can pla5-this role is if the�-a�e as secure as the main building. Providing
building-by-building security in place of maintaining a secured perimeter«ould not provide the level
of securit�-Apple desires and thus��ould conflict��ith a primai}-project objective.
Master Response#6: Project Trip Distribution
Some commenters suggested that the anticipated distribution of project trips on the road��a�-net��orlc
should ha�e been determined using altemative methods,including methods that«ould ha�e distributed
more trips in the immediate vicinit�-of the project site and on sui7ounding local and Count�-road«a�-
facilities.
The trip distribution pattern for the ne« vehicle trips added to the roacl«a�-s�-stem b�-the project is
based on the residence locations of cui7ent Apple employees at other Cupertino sites. The assumption
is that emplo5-ees at the project site��ould have simila�cha�acteristics and therefore simila�residence
location preferences. This is a reasonable assumption because: (i)man�-of the emplo5-ees at the project
site��ould be cui7ent Apple employees and (ii)the close proiimity of the project to cui7ent Apple
facilities in Cupertino malces it reasonable to assume that ne�� emplo5-ees��ould malce similar choices
about��here the�-live. This method of using more localized and specific data(i.e., employee
addresses)to evaluate trip distribution provides a more precise means of anal�-sis than is typical in
transportation impact analyses,��hich typically rely on general land use/travel pattems.
Rely-ing on general land use/travel pattems and models ma�-be the approach more conventionall�-
talcen in transportation anal�-ses because it is unusual to ha�e fine-grained employee location data of
the lcind provided b�-Apple. Ho��ever,the use of such data for eiisting and lilcel�-future employees
allo��s for a more precise transportation anal�-sis that better accounts for the eipected commute trips of
employees. This employee location data allo��s for a more precise anal�-sis, because unlilce the general
land use/travel pattern data produced b�-organizations such as the Association of Ba�-Area
Governments (ABAG) and Metropolitan Transportation Commission(MTC),the employee location
data in this case is derived from actual Apple emplo5-ees��ho are lilcel�-to ha�e tra�el habits similar to
future Apple emplo5-ees��orlcing on the project site.
The impact analysis in the Draft EIR employs a cautious approach in other��a�-s. The transportation
anal�-sis in the Draft EIR assumes that all project traffic��ould be ne�� traf£ic added to the road��a�-
s�-stem. Ho��ever, some of the traffic generated b�-the project��ould originate from eiisting homes in
the area. It is also lilcel�-that some future emplo5-ees currentl�-reside in the a�ea but��orlc else��here
and therefore—as pa�t of the proj ect—��ould modifi-a portion of theu commute trips and��ould not
generate completely ne�� trips on the road��a�-s�-stem. In acldition, employees may purchase or rent
eiisting homes in the a�ea, in��hich case the�-��ould replace trips generated b�-cui7ent residents of
those homes. Traffic from approved and pending residential developments«ere aclded to the
Background and Cumulative scenario traffic projections. Traf£ic generated b�-employees residing in
those developments is therefore accounted for t��ice in the anal�-sis. This approach of using actual

Master Response#7: Cut-Through Traffic
Several residential streets in the cities of Santa Cla�a and Sunn�,-vale a�e situated near the project site.
The Draft EIR evaluates potential impacts on some of the most direct cut-tluough streets in the
residential neighborhoods adjacent to the project site,including Quail Avenue, Ma�ion Way, and
Inverness Wav in Sunn�,-vale and Hillsdale Avenue and De Soto Avenue in Santa Cla�a. Several
comments submitted on the Draft EIR eipressed concem about the use of additional residential
streets as cut-through routes. Streets cited in the comments a�e Dunford WaS-(lcno��n as Marion Wa�-
��est of Oriole Avenue), Lochinvar Avenue, S��allo�� Drive,Peacocic Avenue,Nightingale Avenue,
Teal Drive, Lillicic Drive,Halford Avenue,Henderson Avenue, and Norman Drive, all of��hich a�e
��ithin the Cit�-of Sunn�,-vale. The cut-tluough analysis conducted for the Draft EIR focuses on
potential cut-through traffic during the AM pealc hour,��hen the volume of project trips��ould be the
highest. The anal�-sis concluded that(i)given the small number of project trips coming from El
Camino Real(drivers most lilcel�-to use cut-through routes in Sunn�,vale��ould come from El
Camino Real) and (ii)the inferiorit�-of many-potential cut-through routes to the main a�-terials and
collectors (in terms of speed of tra�el or convenience),the impact due to project-related cut-tluough
traffic��ould be less than significant. This finding��ould apply-to all residential streets in the vicinit�-
of the project site,not just the most lilcel�-cut-through routes considered in the Draft EIR anal�-sis.
Please refer to pages 430 to 432 of the Draft EIR for additional discussion. The cut-through traffic
evaluation in the Draft EIR focuses on the addition of potential cut-through traffic from the project
and not the diversion of non-project related traf£ic in the area due to increased congestion. Ho«ever,
the intersection level of service anal�-sis indicates that the intersections around the project site��ould
operate at acceptable standa�ds and therefore it is not anticipated that traffic«ould divert into the
neighborhood to bypass congestion. See page 431 of the Draft EIR for further details.
Although the anal�-sis in the Draft EIR sho��s that there��i11 not be a signif�icant impact due to cut-
through traffic,the Cit�-acicno��ledges that cut-through traffic is of concem to local residents.
Therefore,as a Condition of Approval,the Cit�-��ould require Apple to set aside funds ($500,000 for
the Cit�-of Sunn�,-vale and $250,000 for the Cit�-of Santa Cla�a)to monitor cut-tluough traffic and
potentiall�-install traffic calming measures should cut-through traffic-related problems a�ise due to
implementation of the proposed project. The Cit�-of Cupertino��ould��orlc��ith the appropriate
jurisdictions to determine the eitent of the neighborhood cut-through traffic and to ensure that
neighborhood concems a�e addressed. Therefore,impacts related to cut-through traf£ic (including on
the additional residential streets identified in comments on the Draft EIR)��ould be less-than-
significant.
Master Response#8: Adequacy of Transportation Demand Management(TDM) Penalties
The Cit�-has established TDM penalties that��ould be assessed if the project eiceeds the trip count of
4,270 AM pealc-hour vehicle trips and 4,400 PM pealc-hour vehicle trips. The TDM penalties a�e
discussed on pages 445 to 446 of the Draft EIR The penalties��ould be assessed evei�-da�-until trip
count conformance is achieved, and a�e intended to ensure compliance��ith Mitigation Measure
TRANS-9b. The fee��ould be$5/da�-/trip if Apple does not implement aclditional TDM measures
determined in consultation��ith Cit�-staff(see page 443 of the Draft EIR for these additional

measures) and $3/da�-/trip if aclditional TDM measures a�e implemented. (These penalties«ould be
acljusted based on the Consumer Price Indei.)
As an eiample,if the trip counts are eiceeded b�-200 vehicles in the AM pealc hour and 200 vehicles
in the PM pealc hour, and Apple does not agree to implement CitS--approved TDM measures,the
penalt5-��ould be $2,000 per da5-. Due to the monitoring schedule described on pages 444 to 447 of
the Draft EIR,it��ould lilcel�-talce 6 months before conformance could be measured and confirmed.
Therefore,the total penalt5-��ould be $260,000 (26��eelcs i 5��orlcing da5-s a��eelc i$2,000 a da5-)
for 6 months of this hypothetical eiceedance scena�io. Such penalties are robust compa�ed to other
similar TDM-related penalties assessed throughout the Ba�-Area and a�e considered suff�icient to
ensure compliance��ith the pealc trip counts goal established in Mitigation Measure TRANS-9b.
Master Response#9: Monitoring TDM Program
Ultimate authorit�-for monitoring Apple's TDM Program��ould reside��ith the Cit�-. As discussed on
pages 444 through 447 of the Draft EIR, Apple��ould be responsible for the collection of initial
TDM-related data(identification and description of the specif�ic TDM measures being implemented,
and estimates of AM and PM pealc hour vehicle trips and vehicle trips per emplo5-ee)in accordance
��ith measurement guidance and monitoring guidelines created b�-Apple and the Cit�-. Ho��ever,the
effectiveness of Apple's TDM Program��ould ultimatel�-be verified��ith the collection of additional
data (including daily-,hourly, and 15-minute traffic counts talcen at project dri�e�va�-s and/or pa�lcing
facilities over specified 2-«eelc periods)to be undertalcen b�-an independent CitS--approved planning/
engineering firm. This firm,under the duection of the City, could request aclditional data from Apple,
or reject the initial data collected b�-Apple (and substitute a different data set). Therefore,prima��-
responsibilit�-for monitoring the efficac�-of Apple's TDM program��ould reside��ith the Cit�-.No
conflict��ould eiist bet��een the TDM Monitoring Report(prepared b5-an independent firm) and the
initial data collected b�-Apple because the Apple-collected data could be used at the discretion of the
independent firm preparing the TDM Monitoring Report. Apple��ould pa5-for the cost to conduct
monitoring and CitS-staff time to revie�� the annual monitoring reports.
The appropriate entit�-for the oversight of the monitoring program and malcing findings of compli-
ance or non-compliance is the Cit�-of Cupertino. Because the Cit�-is the CEQA leacl agenc5-and has
jurisdiction over land use decisions«ithin its borders,it is the coi7ect entit�-to aclminister this
program and to ensure that this mitigation measure is implemented and macle enforceable. Oversight
b�-another entity, such as the Santa Clara Valle�-Transportation Authorit5-(VTA),is not appropriate
or required.
Master Response#10: Median on East Homestead Road
As described on page 102 of the Draft EIR,the proposed project includes the option of a landscaped
median on East Homestead Roacl bet��een North Wolfe Roacl and North Tantau Avenue. The purpose
of the median is to provide additional landscaping along the northem edge of the project site as both a
beautification measure and to act as a visual buffer to adjacent residences. The median is not a
requuement nor is it a mitigation measure for the project. Both the cities of Cupertino and Sunn�-vale
sha�e jurisdiction of this segment of East Homestead Road. Given the shared jurisdiction, both
agencies��ould need to approve the final design of the median; therefore Apple��ould continue to
��orlc��ith both cities to finalize the design of the median.

The final design��ould continue to provide local access (ingress and/or egress)to Nightingale
Avenue and Peacocic Avenue. Ho«ever,if the landscaped median is approved, duect eastbound
access to/from homes on the north side of East Homesteacl Roacl«ould be limited and residents of the
a�ea��ould be required to malce U-tums at designated gaps��ithin the median(at Nightingale Avenue,
Peacocic Avenue, and other streets if provided). The limitations on eastbound access«ould prima�ily-
affect the 22 homes bet��een Nightingale Avenue and Peacock Avenue, and sii homes bet��een
Peacocic Avenue and Quail Avenue. These homes��ould generate the follo��ing AM and PM pealc
hour trips:

Thus the greatest number of U-tums that��ould occur at a given median gap is 19 vehicles for the
AM pealc hour for outbound trips��est of Peacocic Avenue,��hich��ould not substantiall�-degrade the
operations of East Homestead Road.
In Sunn�,-vale's and Cupertino's revie�� of the proposed median, design considerations such as the
abilit�-to malce U-turns,provision of eastbound left-tum pocicets,eastbound refuge lanes, and other
design elements«ould be evaluated to minimize the accessibilit�-impacts to residents on the north
side of East Homestead Roacl. As noted above,ultimatel�-both local agencies«ould need to approve
the final design of the median project.
Master Response#11: Diverted Trips Due to Pruneridge Avenue Closure
With the closure of Pruneridge Avenue,vehicles cui7entl�-tra�eling on this road��a�-bet��een North
Wolfe Road and North Tantau Avenue«ould detour a�ound the project site. The maiimum detour
path along North Wolfe Road, East Homestead Roacl and North Tantau Avenue is approiimatel�- 1.1
miles in length and represents a 0.6-mile detour(1.1 mile ne�� path minus 0.5 mile eiisting path).
There are generally three types of trips that��ould be affected b�-the proposed closure:
L Through trips��ith no destination on Pruneridge Avenue bet��een North Wolfe Road and
North Tantau Avenue that«ould be diverted a�ound the project site;
2. Vehicles cui7entl�-accessing the project site that«ould be diverted to the ne« drive«a�-s
on North Wolfe Roacl and North Tantau Avenue; and
3. Trips associated��ith The Hamptons apartment communit�-. As discussed on page 430 of
the Draft EIR,tra�elers to/from The Hamptons that��ould be significantl�-affected b�-the
project a�e on1�-those that cui7entl�-tra�el to/from the east on Pruneridge Avenue.

For the second type—vehicles cui7entl�-accessing the project site—it is assumed that their destination
«ould remain the same and,therefore,the�-a�e not considered "diverted"trips. To estimate the
number of affected vehicles for each of the three trip types, Fehr&Peers conducted origin and
destination (OD) surve�-s'in August 2011 at the intersections of North Wolfe Roacl/Pruneridge
Avenue and North Tantau Avenue/Pruneridge Avenue. Fehr&Peers also collected trip counts at The
Hamptons drive��a�-in November 2011 to determine the trip generation and distribution cha�acteris-
tics of the apa�tment complei so that the number of apa�-tment trips to/from the east could be
measured. The OD surve�-results (see RTC Table 2)«ere used to determine the percentage of
vehicles that tra�el on Pruneridge Avenue as through traffic versus those that access the eiisting
office uses on Pruneridge Avenue, and therefore«ould not be diverted.
Table RTC-2: Distribution of Tri s on Prunerid e Avenue

Total 100% (1,615) 100% (1,�00)
Source: Fehr&Peers.2013.
The tluough trips on Pruneridge Avenue«ere assumed to divert to both East Homestead Road and
Vallco Parlc��a�-to/from North Wolfe Road and North Tantau Avenue to tra�el to their ultimate
destination. Eiisting intersection turning movement distributions (i.e.,the percent of vehicles that
tum left/right or tra�el straight)��ere used to malce assumptions about the number of vehicles diverted
to East Homesteacl Roacl or Vallco Parlc��a�-and their ultimate path of travel to/from North Wolfe
Road and North Tantau Avenue. The Hamptons trips coming from/tra�eling to the east��ere assumed
to divert to East Homesteacl Road and North Wolfe Road via the Wolfe Roacl/Pruneridge Avenue
intersection. Based on the numbers of vehicle trips eipected to be diverted due to the closure of
Pruneridge Avenue and the relativel�-short diversion distance (0.6 mile),the closure of Pruneridge
Avenue��ould not result in significant effects on vehicular travel behavior(although signif�icant
impacts«ould occur to bic�-clists and pedestrians, as discussed in the Draft EIR).
Master Response#12: Trip Cap
As described on page 441 of the Draft EIR,the Cit�-evaluated the feasibilit�-of a mitigation measure
requiring a"trip cap."Under a trip cap, once development of the project site generates trip volumes
that eiceed AM and PM pealc-hour values for triggering impacts to the transportation s�-stem,
continued development and gro«-th at the project site«ould be halted. A trip cap«as rejected as
infeasible because it��ould conflict��ith a lce5-project objective of consolidating Apple's engineering
and support personnel in one location. In addition, such a trip cap��ould limit employment gro��th on
the site,«hich«ould be undesirable to Apple and the Cit�-for economic reasons and«ould conflict
��ith a key project objective of developing a campus that can accommodate 14,200 employees.

Master Response#13: Calabazas Creek Trail
Several comments suggest that a trail should be developed through the project site, along Calabazas
Creelc. Such atrail is sho��n in General Plan Figure 2-I and��ould promote��allcabilit�-and the use of
altemative modes of transport in the vicinit�-of the project site.
As discussed on pages 152 to 155 of the Draft EIR,the project��ould not fu11�-implement this
proposed trail segment and Strategies 2 and 3 of Polic�-2-73 of the Land Use/Communit�-Design
Element,��hich encourage the implementation of trail projects (and require dedications or easements
for trails,��here appropriate). Ho��ever, as discussed on page 152 of the Draft EIR,the General Plan
allo��s fleiibilit�-in the implementation of trail projects,including the balancing of safet5-,privac5-,
and securit�-concems in identi�-ing a specific trail alignment.
Requuing Apple to construct a Calabazas Creelc trail through the project site as mitigation for Impact
PLAN-2«as determined to be infeasible because Apple has indicated that the fundamental objective
of a secure campus«ould be compromised«ith the provision of a public trail immediatel�-acljacent
to or tluough the project site. Even��ith securit�-and design measures such as fencing, Apple
maintains that such a trail through a portion of the site��ould pose securit�-rislcs because Apple has
been the target of intense scrutin�-regarding its future projects. Given that Apple's resea�ch and
development facilit�-is to be located at this site,perimeter securit�-that��ill afford privac5-is a
fundamental objective. Please refer to Master Response#5: Public Access Through Project Site for
aclditional discussion of these securit�-considerations,including the relationship of these securit�-
concems��ith key project objectives.
In acldition, development of a trail along Calabazas Creelc through the project site��ould be phy-sically-
constrained. The ripa�ian corridor��ithin the site terminates at a culvert under I-280. If a trail through
the site��ere provided,it��ould either terminate at the I-280 culvert or��ould require a crossing over
or under I-280. A connection under I-280��ould be a potentiall�-costl�-engineering solution or��ould
on1�-be operable during the di�-season. The cost of a connection over I-280«ould be significantl�-
higher and��ould be disproportionate to the impact of the project on planned trail facilities,malcing it
an infeasible measure.
Because a public trail through the project site��ould be infeasible due to securit�-reasons and phy-sical
planning constraints,the Draft EIR identif�ies an altemate,feasible mitigation measure to further the
implementation of the Cit�-'s trail-related planning policies. Mitigation Measure PLAN-3, described
on pages 154 to 155 of the Draft EIR,��ould require aesthetic and functional improvements along an

picnic tables,pavement features that reference the creek and/or��ater, and decorative fencing and
gua�d rails. In addition, Mitigation Measure PLAN-3��ould require that Apple fund a stud�-of a Class
I trail along the drainage channel and Calabazas Creelc channel south of the project site. The Cit�-
could then pursue development of that trail, based on the findings of the stud�-.
While Mitigation Measure PLAN-3��ould pa�-tially-mitigate the loss of the segment of the planned
Calabazas Creelc trail,the measure��ould provide substitute trail facilities and alignments that��ould
be less desirable to trail users. Therefore,the impact«ould remain significant and unavoidable, as
discussed in the Draft EIR.
A project altemative,the Mobilit�-and Pa�lc altemative,��as initiall�-considered as part of the project
altematives anal�-sis, as discussed on page 626 of the Draft EIR This altemative��ould include a trail
that��ould eitend along Calabazas Creelc through the project site, and��ould ultimatel�-connect
North Wolfe Road and North Tantau Avenue. Ho��ever,this alternative��as rejected because it��ould
pose significant securit�-concems to Apple and��ould conflict��ith a lce5-project objective.
Master Response#14: New Freeway Ramps
Several comments suggest that the project include the creation of ne�� I-280 ramps that��ould allo��
direct access to and eiit from the project site. The creation of ne�� I-280 ramps seiving the project site
��as not proposed as pa�t of the project and��as rejected as a mitigation measure because: 1)ne��
ramps on the free��a�-��ould not significantl�-reduce the impacts of the project; 2) such a change is
not under the jurisdiction of the Cit�-of Cupertino; 3)ne�� ramps could eiacerbate congestion on I-
280 and compromise the lce�-securit�-objective of the project; 4)ne�� ramps��ould violate Caltrans
regulations related to the proiimit5-of free�va�-interchanges (including High��a5-Design Manual,
Chapter 500, Section 501.3,��hich requires interchanges to be at least 1 mile apa�t in urban a�eas) and
5) a ne�� ramp directly-to the site��ould violate Caltrans regulations prohibiting direct access to
private propert5-from free��a5-s (High��a5-Design Manual Topic 104.1).
Master Response#15: School Busing Program
Several comments suggest that the Cit�-require Apple to implement a ne�� school busing program to
reduce traf£ic impacts associated��ith the project. Requiring Apple to bus children to school as
mitigation for project-related traffic impacts��as rejected from detailed consideration in the Draft EIR
for the follo��ing reasons:
• School trips in the area are generally-understood to have a distribution pattern that differs
from those associated��ith the project. Thus the reduction of school trips ma5-not
substantiall�-reduce the impacts of the project on the road��a�-net��orlc.
• The implementation of a school busing program��ould not on1�-be difficult and costl�-to
develop and aclminister, but there also«ould not be a neius bet«een the project's impact
on the road«a�-net«orlc and the benefit that«ould be achieved b�-implementing a school
busing s5-stem. See also Master Response#3: Mitigation Neius.

COMMENTER Al
City of Sunnyvale
Kent Steffens,Director of Public Works
July 22,2013
Response A1-L This comment comprises the transmittal conve5-ing the comment letter from
the Cit�-of Sunn�,-vale, along��ith an introduction to the content of the letter.
This comment is noted.
Response A1-2: This comment introduces the subsequent comments and notes previous
collaboration��ith the Cit�-of Cupertino on project-related planning issues.
Response A1-3: The information in Table III-2,including the identif�ied building heights of
the Phase 2 development,is coi7ect. Figure III-4 on page 67 of the Draft EIR
is revised as sho��n on the follo��ing page.
Response A1-4: As described on page 125 of the Draft EIR,the Corporate Fitness Center
��ould be acljacent to a 25-space parlcing lot. Parlcing in this lot��ould not be
restricted to Corporate Fitness Center employees or seivice vehicles. On a
dai1�-basis, Apple emplo5-ees«ould be directed to parlc in the Main Building
Parlcing Garage,Main Parlcing Structure,North Tantau Parlcing Structure, and
Phase 2 pa�lcing areas. Therefore,no change to the teit of the Draft EIR is
«a�ranted.
Response A1-5: As described on page 59 of the Draft EIR,under eiisting conditions,the
perimeter of the project site is patrolled b�-Apple personnel on a 24-hour
basis. Securit5-personnel also monitor other pa�ts of the project site. This
securit5-protocol��ould continue��ith implementation of the proposed project
and��ould ensure that the landscaping along the perimeter of the site��ould
not ha�bor criminal activit�-. In addition, as pa�t of the project, Apple��ould
utilize camera suiveillance along the perimeter fence that��ould be monitored
at a centrall�--located campus operations center.
Response A1-6: The Corporate Fitness Center��ould primarily-be used b�-emplo5-ees��ithin
the project site, and other,off-site fitness centers��ould remain a�ailable to
employees at off-site Apple facilities. Because the Corporate Fitness Center
��ould be an eas�-��alk(approiimatel�-5 minutes,via intemal path��a5-s)from
the Main Building,the vast majorit5-of emplo5-ees��ould not be eipected to
use transit to access the facilit��. Ho��ever,transit access to the Corporate
Fitness Center«ould be a�ailable on an on-demand basis for those employees
��ho prefer not to��allc to the facilit�-. The shuttles seiving the Corporate
Fitness Center��ould be the 15-seat Sprinter vans that Apple cui7entl�-uses to
shuttle emplo5-ees bet��een buildings at eiisting Apple facilities. These vans
��ould picic-up and drop-off passengers at the pa�lcing lot adjacent to the

III. COMMENTS AND RESPONSES
Corporate Fitness Center. Because the on-demand vans��ould not offer a
significant tra�el time sa�ings (and in man�-cases«ould be less convenient
than��allcing),the use of these vans to access the Corporate Fitness Center is
eipected to be negligible,and the vans«ould not add a substantial amount of
traffic to East Homestead Road.
Response A1-7: Please see Response to Comment A1-4.
Response A1-8: As described on page 208 of the Draft EIR,the vie��point locations selected
for preparation of project visual simulations "��ere selected based on project
site visibilit�-and the locations that provide the most representative vie��s of
the project site."These vie��point locations are not intended to be ezhaustive
of all the vie��s surrounding the project site that could be altered��ith
implementation of the proposed project. Rather,the locations a�e intended to
illustrate the��a�-s in��hich vie��sheds ma�-change due to the project.
Simila�ly,the preparation of a visual simulation for evei�-vie��point that ma�-
be subject to change��ith implementation of the proposed project is not
required to evaluate the impacts of the project on vie��s. Vie��points 4, 5, and
6, as sho��n on Figure V.B-1, a�e representative of vie��points to the north of
the project site. The coi7esponding visual simulations on Figures V.B-5
through V.B-7 sho�� that the buildings on the project site��ould be la�gely-
obscured b5-proposed perimeter landscaping.
Although the visual simulations in the Draft EIR are aclequate to meet
CEQA's information disclosure requirement, an additional simulation (from
the intersection of East Homesteacl Road and Peacock Avenue)has been
prepared in response to this comment, as sho��n in Figure RTG1. Simila�to
the eiisting visual simulations,this additional simulation indicates that the
buildings on the project site«ould be largely-obscured b5-proposed
perimeter landscaping.
Response A1-9: The Lighting Technical Report� ��as prepa�ed for the project and��as used to
evaluate project impacts on light and gla�e in the Draft EIR The model used
in the Lighting Technical Report to evaluate project-related light and gla�e did
not include trees or other landscape features that could obscure light,in order
to anal�-ze a��orst-case light/gla�e scena�io. As described on page 215 of the
Draft EIR, even using this��orst-case modeling scena�io,the project��ould

III. COMMENTS AND RESPONSES
receptor locations light spillover��ould be reduced��ith implementation of
the project(due to the substitution of��ide1�--dispersed lighting in suiface
pa�lcing lots��ith updated,focused lighting, and other factors). The lighting
values reported for the project on Table V.B-1 on page 215 of the Draft EIR
«ould lilcel�-be reduced further if proposed vegetation and landscape
features a�e talcen into account. Therefore, aclditional measures to reduce
light spillover,including the planting of la�ger trees,��ould not be��ai7anted.
Response A1-10: This comment requests potential transportation improvements that eiceed
those required b5-project impacts. The transportation anal�-sis in the Draft
EIR does not identi�-project impacts on the Homestead Road coi7idor nor at
the De Anza Boulevard/Homestead Roacl/I-280 interchange complei.
Because the project��ould result in less-than-significant impacts at the
locations identif�ied above,the improvements identified in the comment a�e
not requued. TRAFFIX is the approved LOS transportation soft��a�e adopted
b�-all local jurisdictions«ithin Santa Cla�a County,including Cupertino and
Sunn�,-vale. TRAFFIX��as used to identif�-impacts to local streets.
Response A1-11: As part of the project, bilce lanes��ould be eitended/enhanced on North Wolfe
Road from East Homesteacl Road to Vallco Pa�lc��a�-. There is an eiisting bilce
lane gap on North Wolfe Road for approiimatel�-350 feet north of East
Homesteacl Road. This is an eiisting condition in the Cit�-of Sunn�,-vale and
the Cit�-of Sunn�,-vale is best positioned to implement improvements to its
bic�-cle facilit�-net��orlc.
Response A1-12: A signif�icant impact related to project effects on the bic�-cle net��ork bic�-cle
��as not identified at this location, so mitigation is not requued. The defi-
cienc�-in bilce facilities described in the comment is an eiisting condition in
the Cit�-of Sunn�,-vale and the Cit�-of Sunn�,-vale is best positioned to
implement improvements to its bic�-cle facilit�-net��orlc. The Cit�-of
Cupertino��ould support such improvements.
Response A1-13: The transportation impact analysis used to prepa�e Section V.I, Transportation
and Circulation, of the Draft EIR��as conducted in conformance��ith CEQA
requirements b�-using the appropriate anal�-sis scenarios,locations, and
methods and b5-apply-ing appropriate significance criteria to identifi-impacts
and mitigation measures. The stud�-«as conducted according to the
requirements of the Cit�-of Cupertino,the Santa Cla�a VTA, and CEQA.
Response A1-14: VTA's Transportation Impact Anal�-sis Guidelines (Ma�ch 2009)indicate
that intersections��here the project adds more than 10 trips per lane should
be considered for evaluation;ho��ever,it is ultimatel�-the decision of the
leacl agency to select intersections for evaluation. The five suggested
intersections��ere not originally-selected for evaluation, since the�-: 1)
ma�ginally-meet the 10 trip per lane rule and 2) a�e signalized minor street

further indicating that the level of seivice for the minor intersections at Blue
Ja�-Drive and Heron Avenue along this coi7idor«ould not degrade to
unacceptable levels. For these reasons,the Cit�-of Cupertino determined that a
more detailed stud�-«ould not�-ield meaningful information or different
conclusions,and thus it elected not to further evaluate these intersections.
Therefore,the project's impacts to the East Homestead Roacl/Blue Ja�-Drive
and East Homestead Road/Heron Avenue intersections«ould be less than
significant.
Response A1-15: Please see Master Response#6: Project Trip Distribution. As sho��n on
Figure C-2 in the Appendii to the Transportation Impact Anal�-sis,the
anal�-sis included project traffic added to Wolfe Road north of Fremont
Avenue. It��as assumed that emplo5-ees living in the Cit�-of Sunn�,-vale at
closer proiimit5-to the site��ould either move into eiisting homes and
replace trips generated b�-the current residents (and not add ne« traffic) or
move into ne« homes included in Bacicground and Cumulative projections.
Response A1-16: VTA's Transportation Impact Anal�-sis Guidelines (Ma�ch 2009)includes
guidance on the appropriate data sources for eiisting conditions, but does not
require that eiisting conditions represent conditions present at the time of the
most recent CMP monitoring. Eiisting conditions��ere established in Ma�-
2011��hen the majorit5-of the data collection and intersection counts��ere

Response A1-17: The intersections of Sunn�,-vale-Sa�atoga Road/Homestead Road and
Sunn�,-vale-Sa�atoga Roacl/Homesteacl Avenue��ere correctl�-evaluated as
ha�ing sii through lanes on Sunn�,-vale-Saratoga Road.
Response A1-18: The impact to pedestrian access at the I-280/Wolfe Roacl interchange is
identif�ied as Impact TRANS-29. Mitigation Measure TRANS-29 requires the
provision of enhanced cross��alks at that location. Additional pedestrian

Most commuting bic5-clists tra�el at a rate of about nine to 10 miles
per hour,meaning the La��rence, Sunn�,-vale, and Santa Cla�a
Caltrain stations a�e located about an 18, 23, and 28-minute bic�-cle
ride a��a�-from Apple Campus 2,respectively-. Only the La��rence
Caltrain station has continuous bic�-cle infrastructure that connects it
to Apple Campus 2 in the form of Class II lanes along Wolfe Road
(on all se�ments eicept bet��een old San Francisco Road and
Fremont Avenue), Reed Avenue, and Aster Avenue.
Response A1-24: The Cit�-of Cupertino does not have a Cit�--��ide traffic-forecasting model.
Discussions��ere held��ith VTA staff��hen the anal�-sis for the Draft EIR
��as initiated to determine��hether the VTA model��as the appropriate tool
to develop traffic projections for Cumulative Conditions. VTA staff noted
that the project is relativel�-small��hen compa�ed to overall employment in
the region, and��ould fall under the categoiy of"short-term"development
as defined��ithin the VTA Traffic Impact Anal�-sis Guidelines because the
project«ould be built and occupied«ithin 5 �-ea�s. The use of a
transportation model is not typically-recommended b�-VTA for projects of
this scale. Therefore,in consultation��ith VTA,the Cit�-confirmed that
aclding traffic projections from approved and pending development«ould be
the recommended approach to developing cumulative traffic projections.
Response A1-25: Please see Response to Comment A1-24. The Cit�-of Cupertino is essentiall�-
built out according to its aclopted General Plan (2005-2020). While the Cit�-
is currentl�-contemplating updates to its General Plan, that process is in the
earliest stages and it��ould be speculative to estimate the amount of gro��th
that could occur prior to acloption of the updated plan. As a result,the
cumulative scena�io used in the Draft EIR is appropriate and no revisions a�e
necessai�-. Additionally,it is anticipated that the project«ould be
constructed��ithin a 48-month time period starting early-2014. Therefore,
construction is eipected to be complete��e11 before the cumulative horizon
�-ea�(2020) studied in the Draft EIR. As eiplained on page 376 of the Draft
EIR,the cumulative anal�-sis��as based on a list of projects anticipated to be
constructed in the neighboring jurisdictions b�-the cumulative horizon�-ea�
(2020). Furthermore,the project falls under the categoi}-of"short-term"
development as defined��ithin the VTA Traffic Impact Anal�-sis Guidelines
because the project«ould be built and occupied«ithin 5 �-ea�s. Pursuant to
the Guidelines the appropriate projection methods for cumulative conditions
ha�e been applied.

��ould not preclude the construction of bilce lanes at the intersection of North
Wolfe Road and East Homestead Road,the project��ould not conflict��ith
this element of the Cit�-of Sunn�,-vale Bilce Capital Improvement Program.
Response A1-27: The CitS-agrees that policies and plans in adjacent cities should be talcen into
consideration in developing pedestrian and bic�-cle impact criteria. Ho«ever,
CEQA does not require an anal�-sis of a project's consistenc�-��ith all studies
conducted b�-neighboring jurisdictions, as is suggested b5-the comment. To
the contra��-, CEQA Guidelines Section 15125(d)requires an anal�-sis of
inconsistencies��ith"applicable"plans,including,among others,the air
qualit5-attainment or maintenance plan or State Implementation Plan, a�ea-
��ide��aste treatment and��ater quality control plans,regional transportation
plans,regional housing allocation plans, and habitat conservation plans. For
that reason,it is not necessai�-to assess��hether the project is inconsistent
«ith the Cit�-of Sunn�,-vale's Pedestrian Safet�-and Opportunities Stud�-and
the Comprehensive School Traffic Stud�-.Nonetheless,the noted studies and
plans«ere revie«ed and it is noted that the project«ould construct and
enhance pedestrian and bic�-cle facilities in the vicinit�-of the project site and
«ould not preclude construction of any-planned facilities in adjacent cities,
including those identified in the studies. Therefore,the project��ould not
conflict«ith specific pedestrian and bic�-cle projects in acljacent cities and
further evaluation is not��a�7anted.
Response A1-28: Please see Response to Comment A1-27.
Response A1-29: The transit impact criteria used in the Draft EIR��ere revie��ed b�-VTA. The
consistenc�-of the project��ith VTA's Comprehensive Operations Anal�-sis
Criteria is acldressed on pages 426 and 427 of the Draft EIR; see in particular
Impact TRANS-30 and its associated mitigation measure. The project��ould
provide enhancements and amenities to transit stops on road«a�-s in the
project site vicinit�-and��ould be generally consistent��ith the Comprehen-
sive Operations Anal�-sis Criteria.
Response A1-30: Traffic tuming left into the project site from the north on North Wolfe Road
comprises traff�ic approaching the site from the north on North Wolfe Road
and from the east and«est on East Homestead Roacl. The projected left-tum
volume during the AM pealc hour is greater than 350 vehicles,thus requuing
t��o left-turn lanes.
Response A1-3L The northbound right-tum volume is projected to be over 1,100 vehicles
during the AM pealc hour,thus requiring t��o right-tum lanes. A bilce lane
��ould be provided for c�-clists. The impact of the dual right-tum lanes on
pedestrian conditions��as identif�ied as Impact TRANS-28 in the Draft EIR.
The mitigation measure includes installation of a"Yield to Peds" sign that is
activated b�-a pedestrian push button and a high visibilit�-cross��alk(i.e.,

significant impacts at the locations identified above,the improvements
identif�ied in the comment a�e not requued. Please also see Master Response
#3: Mitigation Nezus.
Response A1-38: Table V.I-14 in the Draft EIR sho��s that tra�el time for vehicles tra�eling
south on North Wolfe Roacl��ould be 97 hours of total vehicle dela�-��ith a
t��o left-turn lane project eiit configuration, compared to 141 hours for a
three left-turn lane configuration. This translates into 101 seconds of dela�-
per vehicle��ith a t��o-lane project eiit and 146 seconds of delay per vehicle
for a three-lane project eiit, a difference of 45 seconds of delay per vehicle.
These results a�e based on a VISSIM analvsis conducted for the North Wolfe

III. COMMENTS AND RESPONSES
Response A1-39: The discussion for Impact TRANS-34 refers to the closure of Pruneridge
Avenue and impacts on residents at The Hamptons;ho��ever,the comment
refers to the evaluation of potential traffic aclded to neighborhood streets. The
general assessment in the Draft EIR is that the neighborhood cut-through
routes are inferior to the main travel routes because the�-are less direct,ha�e
multiple stop signs, and lo��er posted speed limits. Please see Master
Response: Neighborhood cut-through traffic for additional discussion on this
topic.
Response A1-40: Development of the project��ould occur in accordance��ith all elements of
the project description as defined in Chapter III of the Draft EIR(Project
Description). As described on pages 128 to 129 on the Draft EIR, Apple
anticipates that three to four special events��ould held per y-ea�,��ith a
maiimum of approiimately 1,000 guests (including approiimatel�-350 non-
Apple employee guests). The event management plan described is suff�icient
to evaluate associated impacts, and Cit�-staff retains the abilit�-to monitor
activities, as needed, subject to cost recovei�-. The Conditional Use Permit
for the auditorium use«ould restrict events for invited guests, but«ould not
restrict events for cui7ent Apple employees.
Response A1-41: As discussed on pages 432 to 437 of the Draft EIR,the proposed project
��ould provide adequate on-site parlcing (��ith implementation of Mitigation
Measure TRANS-35),thus limiting the demand for off-site pa�lcing. The
measures to address any spillover pa�lcing include implementation of
additional TDM measures and,if required,the provision of additional
pa�lcing. As pa�-t of the conditions of approval (and as specified in the
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program),the project sponsor��ould
fund monitoring to assess��hether spillover pa�lcing occurs. The implementa-
tion of permit parlcing is one of the possible measures listed on pages 435 to
436 of the Draft EIR that could be pursued if spillover pa�lcing occurs. This
measure«ould be subject to the responsibilit5-and jurisdiction of the Cit�-of
Sunn�,-vale, but Apple has agreed to coordinate and collaborate«ith
Sunn�,-vale and to contribute funding that could be used to implement the
measure.
Response A1-42: Please see Master Response#10: Median on East Homesteacl Road. The Cit�-
of Cupertino��ould��orlc��ith the Cit�-of Sunn�-vale to determine the
ultimate design of the median,including the length and design of the
«estbound left-tum lane from East Homestead Road to southbound North
Wolfe Road. The final design��ould seek to eitend the left-tum lanes as far
as possible,��ithout eliminating pa�lcing on the north side of East Homesteacl

(and other heating-ventilation-cooling-and au conditioning (HVAC)
equipment),has been anal�-zed and discussed on pages 465 and 466 of the
Draft EIR. As described in that anal�-sis,due to the distance of the proposed
facilities from off-site sensitive receptors,noise from the operation of au
intalce mechanical equipment that��ould be located in the northem quadrant
of the project site«ould attenuate to belo« background ambient noise levels
(��hich a�e dominated,in the location of the air intalce equipment referenced
in the comment, by traffic noise on East Homesteacl Road)as measured at
receiving sensitive land uses. Therefore, as project-related mechanical
equipment stationa��-noise sources«ould not eiceed eiisting ambient noise
levels at receiving sensitive land uses (66.5 A-«eighted decibels (dBA)
CNEL associated��ith eiisting traffic on East Homesteacl Roacl, as measured
at 50 feet from the outermost tra�el lane),impacts of inechanical equipment
on the noise environment«ould be considered less than significant, and no

Response A2-L This introductoi�-comment is noted.
Response A2-2: The CitS-agrees��ith the statement that"even relativel�-small amounts of
nitrogen could contribute to a cumulativel�-signif�icant impact b5-diminishing
the population sizes of serpentine species and possibly-the chances of
suivival of the threatened [Ba�-checkerspot] butterfl�-and the serpentine-

,StNeamliningMitigation foNlmpacts to Biological Resoz�NCes.November 13.).
Ho��ever, as described in Master Response#4: Nitrogen Deposition,the
contribution of the vehicle trips generated b�-the project to this cumulative
impact��ould not be considerable. Furthermore, Apple��ould voluntarily-pa5-
$126,381, an amount equivalent to the Nitrogen Deposition Fee,had nitrogen
deposition been identified as a significant impact in the Draft EIR(no such
impact��as identif�ied). Thus, even if the contribution of nitrogen from
project vehicle trips«ere considered cumulativel�-considerable,the payment
of this amount��ould ensure that such an impact��ould be less-than-

pa5-ment of this amount be identified as mitigation for a"cumulativel�-

Nitrogen Deposition,the project��ould not malce a significant contribution to
the cumulative impact because: 1)the project location and most project trips
«ould be located at a distance from nutrient-poor soils most affected b�-
nitrogen deposition and 2) Apple, as part of the project,��ould voluntaril�-
pa5-an amount, equivalent to the Nitrogen Deposition Fee aclopted in the

Response A4-L This comment,��hich conve�-s an attached letter,is noted.
Response A4-2: This introductoi�-comment is noted.
Response A4-3: Please see Master Response#6: Project Trip Distribution. Project traffic
using SR 85 north of I-280��ould come from/go to areas along SR 85 and
along US 101 north of the US 101/SR 85 interchange, such as Mountain
Vie�� and Palo Alto. The route comprising La��rence Eipress��a5-and US
101 is not a faster altemative for those destinations and«ould not be
attractive to project traffic. Therefore,the trip distribution pattern and trip
assignment is coi7ect and no change is��a�ranted.
Response A4-4: Queuing is generally-not considered a phy-sical environmental impact in and
of itself, based on the Cit�-'s criteria of significance. The one eiception to
this is��hen eicessive off-ramp queuing eitends onto the free��a�-mainline
and causes a hazardous condition. Such conditions«ould not occur«ith
implementation of the project at the northbound I-280/La��rence
Eipress��a5-/Stevens Creelc off-ramp or at the southbound I-280/Stevens
Creelc Boulevard off-ramp.Nevertheless, at the request of the commenter,
aclditional anal�-sis«as conducted to respond to the comment and evaluate
considerations related to queuing at the t��o off-ramps.
The proposed project��ould acld the greatest amount of traf£ic to the ramps
during the AM pealc hour. Therefore, supplemental operational anal�-sis of
the off-ramps��as conducted and focuses on the Bacicground Plus Project
AM pealc hour scenario. Table RTC-4 summa�izes the results,��hich a�e
discussed in detail belo«.
The northbound I-280/La��rence Eipress��a5-/Stevens Creelc off-ramp has a
storage capacit5-of approiimatel�-430 feet on three lanes bet��een the
Stevens Creelc Bouleva�d intersection and the junction��ith the northbound
off-ramp,��ith an additional 1,300 feet of storage on the off-ramp itsel£ This
results in a total storage capacit5-of 2,590 feet(430 feet i 3lanes+ 1,300
feet). Based on TRAFFIX,the a�erage queue for the northbound approach at
the Stevens Creek Bouleva�d/I-280-La��rence Eipress��ay intersection is 30
vehicles under Background No Project Conditions,��hich��ould increase to
55 vehicles under the plus project scena�io. The northbound approach is
assumed to have three lanes and TRAFFIX calculates the queue per lane;
thus under the Background No Project scena�io the queue��ould be 2,250
feet(30 vehicles i 25 feet/vehicle i 3 lanes)and 4,125 feet(55 vehicles i 25
feet/vehicle i 3lanes)under the plus project scena�io. The project is

storage to 3,020 feet(2,590 feet+430 feet lane)),intersection operation
��ould improve and reduce queuing to 31 vehicles per lane or 3,100 feet(31
vehicles/lane i 25 feet/vehicles i 4lanes). While queuing��ould slightly-
eiceed the 3,020 feet of available storage,the ramp is fed from an auiiliai�-
lane,meaning that the small amount of queuing be5-ond storage capacit5-(80
feet)��ould occur in the auiilia��-lane. This amount of queuing that on1�-
minimall�-eiceeds storage capacit5-«ould not duectl�-blocic mainline lanes
and«ould not create a haza�dous condition. The eipected AM pealc hour
queue length can be accommodated at the southbound I-280 off ramp at
La��rence Eipress��ay/Stevens Creek Bouleva�d and no further evaluation
«as conducted.
The southbound I-280/Stevens Creelc Boulevard off-ramp has a storage
capacity of approiimatel�-400 feet in three lanes,plus 280 feet over t��o
lanes, and 350 feet in a single lane. This results in a total storage capacit5-of
2,110 feet(400 feet i 3lanes+280 feet i 2lanes+350 feet i 1 lane). Based
on TRAFFIX,the a�erage queue for the southbound approach at the Stevens
Creelc Bouleva�d/I-280 Southbound Ramps is 13 vehicles under Bacicground
No Project Conditions,��hich��ould increase to 16 vehicles under the plus
project scena�io. TRAFFIX calculates the queue per lane;thus under the No
Project scena�io the queue��ould be 975 feet(13 vehicles i 25 feet/vehicle i
3lanes)and 1,200 feet(16 vehicles i 25 feet/vehicle i 3 lanes)under the
plus project scena�io. The project is eipected to increase the queue b5-275
feet. The eipected AM pealc hour queue length can be accommodated at the

Response A4-5: The list of Transportation Demand Management(TDM)measures referenced
in this comment and found in the Transportation Impact Anal�-sis (TIA)��ere
aclapted for inclusion in the Draft EIR(see pages 121 to 122). The comment
that electric vehicle cha�ging spaces��ould not reduce vehicle trips is noted,
but no additional cla�if�ication is needed. The Draft EIR notes at the bottom of
page 122 that, although"electrical vehicles��ould not necessa�il�-reduce
project vehicle trips,they��ould achieve other envuonmental benefits related
to au qualit5-,noise, and greenhouse gas emissions."

could benefit off-site traf£ic levels. The bilce sharing program��ould be
complementai�-to the shuttle program, allo��ing Apple employees to tra�el to
and from��orlc��ithout a car,��hile retaining the abilit�-to tra�el short
distances during the da5-, such as to other nearb�-Apple facilities or neighbor-
ing retail establishments. Ezpanding the bilce sha�ing program��ould
promote altemative means of commuting and is appropriately described as a
TDM measure.
As noted in the"Campus Walking/CS-cling Commutes"on page 121 of the
Draft EIR,this measure includes: 1)provision of more convenient bic�-cle
and pedestrian access to the Main Building; 2)provision of bilce locicers nea�
the entrance to the Main Building; and 3)increasing the distance bet��een
��orlc space and pa�lcing a�eas,to malce pa�lcing less convenient. These
features��ould encourage the use of altemate modes of transportation.
As discussed on pages 440 through 447 of the Draft EIR, Mitigation Measure
TRANS-9b��ould require Apple to achieve a 34 percent alternative mode
pa�-ticipation rate, as verified��ith pealc trip counts at the buildout capacit5-of
14,200 emplo5-ees. The mitigation measure does not prescribe the use of the
"Additional TDM Measures"described on page 443 of the Draft EIR unless
the pealc trip count goal is not met. At that point, Apple��ould be required to
implement some or all of the "Additional TDM Measures"until the pealc trip
count goal is met. The mitigation measure is thus structured to ensure Apple
meets its pealc trip count goal��ith the most efficient configuration of TDM
measures (and is not contingent on the Cit�-selecting specif�ic TDM measures
for Apple to implement). Reducing the project pa�lcing supply-ma5-cause
pa�lcing in adjacent neighborhoods (a significant concem eipressed b�-
residents��ho live nea�the project site) and therefore is not being considered
for this project.
Response A4-6: Ramp meters are used to manage free��a5-operations, by controlling the traffic
demand at free��a�-enti�-ramps. The free�va5-operations anal�-sis conducted as
pa�t of the Draft EIR is based on free��a�-densit�-and assumes that the project
on-ramp demand«ould be accommodated on the free«a�-s�-stem. The
resulting free��a5-impacts and mitigation measure a�e discussed in TRANS-
22. In addition,most of the ramp intersections requested for additional
anal�-sis��ere evaluated in the Draft EIR The ramp intersections at Wolfe

La��rence Eipress��a5-/Southbound I-280 Ramps, De Anza Bouleva�d/SR 85
northbound ramps, and De Anza Bouleva�d/SR 85 southbound ramps«ere
included in the anal�-sis. Most of these intersections��ere projected to operate
at acceptable seivice levels or appropriate intersection LOS mitigation

mainline and causes a hazardous condition. The comment references on-
ramps, and so on1�-relates to operational issues and not envuonmental
impacts. Ho��ever,the requested sii metered free��a�-on-ramps��ere
revie«ed to determine if further operational anal�-sis should be conducted.
The proposed project��ould add the greatest amount of traf£ic to the on-
ramps during the PM pealc hour,��hen project traffic lea�es the site to access
the surrounding free��a5-net��orlc. The revie�� focused on the on-ramps for
the Bacicground plus Project PM pealc hour.
Apple and the Cit�-��ould continue to��orlc��ith Caltrans to determine the
operational queuing considerations for the southbound I-280 on-ramps at
Wolfe Roacl (loop) and La��rence Eipress��a5-. In the PM pealc hour,the
eiisting queues due to ramp-metering at the southbound La��rence
Eipress��a5-on-ramp eitend the length ofthe on-ramp. Because the project
«ould acld a considerable amount of traffic to this movement, Caltrans
requests that the applicant provide additional storage for this free��a�-on-
ramp b5-adding an HOV preferential lane. Although not a phy-sical
environmental impact,the Cit�-of Cupertino��ould require a fau sha�e
contribution to this eiisting operational issue as a Condition of Approval,
since the acldition of project traf£ic��ould increase ramp queues.
Neither the northbound I-280 on-ramps at Wolfe Road (diagonal)nor De
Anza Bouleva�d (diagonal) ha�e ramp-metering during the PM pealc hour,
��hen the project��ould add the greatest amount of traf£ic;therefore,no
aclditional operational anal�-sis��as considered for these t��o locations. The
project��ould add 22 and 45 PM pealc hour trips to the northbound SR 85/
Homesteacl Road loop on-ramp and southbound SR 85/De Anza Boulevard
on-ramp,respectively-. This is not considered a substantial amount of traffic,
and therefore these t��o on-ramps on SR 85��ere not considered for further
evaluation.
Response A4-7: An�-construction��ithin the Caltrans right-of-��a�-associated��ith the project
��ould be conducted��ith the appropriate Caltrans permits and oversight. All
Traffic Operations S�-stems and ramp metering equipment��ould be main-
tained and«ould remain operational, as required b5-Caltrans or other
agencies.
Response A4-8: Apple��ould continue to��orlc��ith Caltrans and the Cit�-of Cupertino to
develop the final design of the t��o off-ramps at the I-280/Wolfe Road
interchange,��ith the goal of eitending the off-ramps to contain the eipected
queues. The final design could include the suggestions identified in the
comment. Ho��ever,there a�e right-of-��a�-constraints (especially-in the
southbound direction)that limit the length of the off-ramps. Because of these
constraints, and due to jurisdictional issues,the impacts to the northbound
and southbound ramps (TRANS-25 and TRANS-26)��ere identified as
significant and una�oidable.

Response A4-9: Identified free«a�-impacts and mitigation measures a�e addressed under
Impact TRANS-22, and discussed in Response A8-8. Proposed mitigation
measures to free��a�-impacts include fair share contributions to: (1)the State
Route 85 Eipress Lane Project(converting the eiisting HOV lane to a toll
lane to allo�� single occupant vehicles to drive in the HOV lane for a fee); (2)
improvements identified b�-Caltrans to eliminate an eiisting bottleneck on
southbound I-280 bet��een El Monte Roacl and Magdalena Avenue; and (3)
either the Bus Rapid Transit(BRT) stations proposed��ithin Cupertino, or an
alternate improvement or stud�-to��ards the improvement of the I-280

Monte Roacl and Magdalena Avenue«ere developed b5-the City in
collaboration��ith VTA and Caltrans.
Response A4-10: Cit�-of Cupertino staff ha�e discussed the fau-share formula��ith Caltrans
and ha�e provided Caltrans��ith the corresponding calculations. Caltrans has
eipressed that the�-a�e satisfied��ith the fair-sha�e contributions and the
projects identified to receive the funding.
Response A4-11: Please see Master Response#1: Significant and Unavoidable Impacts. The
Cit�-��ould ensure that Apple pay the estimated cost of all mitigation
measures identified in the Draft EIR,including those associated��ith impacts
that remain significant and unavoidable. As described in the Master Response,
Apple��ould be requued to pursue the mitigation measures requiring action
b�-other jurisdictions to the maiimum eitent feasible. The signif�icant and
una�oidable finding does not allo« the leacl agency to a�oid identi�-ing
feasible mitigation, but recognizes that Caltrans and other agencies ha�e not
�-et granted the necessai}-approvals to implement these measures and the Cit�-
of Cupertino cannot, at this time,gua�antee that such approvals��ould be
granted. Apple has agreed to coordinate and collaborate«ith the eitra-
jurisdictional agencies to construct each mitigation measure, or to provide
funding to the agencies to design and construct either: (1)the identified
mitigation measure or(2) an altemate improvement��hich mitigates the
impact to the satisfaction of the Cit�-of Cupertino. Therefore,the Cit�-fu11�-
eipects that the physical improvements identified in the noted mitigation
measures«ould be successfull�-constructed and implemented and«ould
require that Apple pursue these phy-sical improvements or fund the estimated
cost of the identified improvements, as noted in the Mitigation Monitoring and
Reporting Program. The on1�-circumstance in��hich the mitigation��ould not
be implemented«ould be if Caltrans,or another responsible agenc5-, does not
approve the improvements.

Response AS-2: According to the VTA Congestion Management Program Requirements for
Deficienc�-Plans, adopted November 18, 1992, a Deficienc�-Plan is needed
��hen a Congestion Management Program(CMP)intersection eiceeds its
CMP threshold (LOS E) during CMP monitoring,or��hen the intersection is
projected to eiceed its threshold as the result of a land use impact analy-sis,
and there a�e no feasible improvements or mitigation measures that��ould
allo�� it to operate at or better than its threshold. The comment letter
identif�ies five CMP intersections��ith significant and una�oidable impacts
(four under Bacicground plus Project conditions and one under Cumulative
plus Project conditions) and concludes that a Deficienc�-Plan is needed.
Ph�-sical improvements have been identified for the four CMP intersections
��ith impacts under Bacicground Plus Project Conditions that��ould mitigate
the impacts to a less-than-significant level. Since these intersections a�e in

Impacts.
The intersection of De Anza Boulevard and Stevens Creelc Bouleva�d is
projected to operate at LOS E under Cumulative plus Project Conditions. The
Cit�-of Cupertino's LOS threshold for this intersection is LOS E+, so a
significant impact��as identif�ied. The CMP LOS threshold for this intersec-
tion is LOS E. Therefore it«ould not eiceed the CMP LOS tlueshold and a
Deficienc�-Plan is not��a�7anted. Ho��ever, Apple��ould be required to pa5-
a fau-sha�e contribution to��a�ds implementation of an aclaptive traffic signal
s�-stem along De Anza Bouleva�d,to pa�tially-mitigate the impact that��as
identif�ied in the Cumulative scenario.
The Cit�-of Cupertino is committed to��orlcing collaborativel�-��ith the Cit�-
of San Jose and other adjacent jurisdictions to address regional transportation
improvements.
Pages 411 and 412 of the Draft EIR a�e revised as follo��s:
Imnact TRANS-13: Under Cumulative plus Project Conditions,
completion of the proposed project would cause intersection #8
De Anza Boulevard/Stevens Creek Boulevard to operate at an
unacceptable level (change from LOS E+to LOS E) during the
PM peak hour based on City of Cupertino LOS impact
thresholds. (S)
Miti�ation Measure TRANS-13a: At intersection#8 De Anza
Boulevard/Stevens Creek Bouleva�d,the provision of an eiclusive
southbound right-turn lane (for a total of t��o left-tum lanes,four
through lanes, and one right-tum lane) and adjusting the signal
timings to accommodate the aclded turn lane«ould improve
intersection operations to acceptable levels at LOS E+��ith 58.9
seconds of average dela5-. Ho��ever,this improvement is phy-sically-
not feasible, since the��idening of the roacl��a�-to accommodate the
southbound right-tum lane��ould impact an underground garage
belonging to the off�ice development on the north��est comer of the De
Anza Boulevard/Stevens Creelc Bouleva�d intersection;therefore the
impact at the De Anza Bouleva�d/Stevens Creelc Bouleva�d
intersection is considered significant and una�oidable.
Miti�ation Measure TRANS-13b: The project sponsor shall eipand
the TDM program to reduce the severit�-of the impact. Increasing the
TDM participation and associated altemative mode sha�e from 28
percent to 34 percent��ould improve operations to LOS E(62.1
seconds); ho��ever the increase in TDM pa�ticipation��ould not
reduce the impact to a less-than-significant level.

comment are private shuttles for use on1�-b�-Apple emplo5-ees. The shuttle
routes and stops a�e designed based on locations«ith concentrations of
emplo5-ee residences and major transit hubs. Apple«ould continue to modifi-
its routes and stops in response to its emplo5-ee needs. Maintaining shuttle
planning as an in-house activit�-allo��s Apple to be more responsive than if it
«ere conducted in collaboration«ith VTA.
Response AS-4: Please see Master Response#9: Monitoring TDM Program and Master
Response#8: Adequac5-of TDM Penalties.
Response AS-5: The eiisting side��allc on the south side of Steven Creelc Bouleva�d��est of
Calvert Drive is currentl�-5 feet��ide. The proposed mitigation��ould reduce
the buffer bet��een the vehicle travel lane and the side��alk from approii-
matel�-5 feet to 1 foot and maintain the eiisting 5-foot side��alk. Because the
��idth of the side��alk��ould not diminish,no significant impact��ould result
and no mitigation«ould be required.
Response AS-6: Please see Master Response#4: Nitrogen Deposition. As noted in that
response, Apple��ould voluntarily-pa5-$126,381, an amount equivalent to the
Nitrogen Deposition Fee that��ould be assessed had there been a signif�icant
impact from the development of the project, based on the assumption that the
project��ould generate 35,106 netne�� dail�-trips. The payment��ould be
voluntai�-because the proposed project is not located«ithin the bounda�ies of
the Santa Cla�a Valle�-Habitat Plan,��hich established such a fee for its
member agencies. This pa5-ment does not constitute "mitigation"for a
significant impact related to nitrogen deposition because: 1)the project's
contribution to such an impact is not cumulativel�-considerable and 2)the
pa5-ment of this amount is pa�t of the project and thus does not constitute
mitigation.
Response AS-7: The themes of reducing dependenc5-on single-occupanc5-vehicles and the
reduction of greenhouse gas emissions run through numerous Cit�-documents,
including those related to land use planning. The most prominent of these is
the Cit�-of Cupertino General Plan,��hich encourages compact,transit-

Response A7-L This comment,��hich conve�-s an attached letter,is noted.
Response A7-2: Apple's eiisting Inf�inite Loop site has approiimatel�- 100 Caltrain riders,
��hich represents approiimatel�-2.4 percent of the 4,200 emplo5-ees at that
facilit�-. Assuming a simila�level of Caltrain ridership,the proposed project
��ould result in 340 ne�� Caltrain riders. Assuming that 40 percent of these
«ould ride the trains during the pealc hour,the proposed project«ould
increase Caltrain pealc-hour ridership b5-approiimatel�- 140 riders (340 i 40
percent). Based on Apple's trip distribution assumptions sho��n in Figure
V.I-7 and accessibilit�-to Caltrain stations, approiimatel�-70 percent of these
riders«ould tra�el southbound and 30 percent«ould tra�el northbound in
the AM pealc hour(98 southbound and 42 northbound riders). Table RTGS
lists the AM pealc hour Caltrain train capacities and eipected Apple demand

In the southbound direction,the Limited Trains have an available capacit5-of
325 seats (650 seats i(1-O.S loacl factor))and the Eipress Trains ha�e an
a�ailable capacity of approiimatel�- 150 seats (650 seats i(1-0.771oad

Sunn�,-vale and/or La��rence stations (no Eipress Train seivice is provided to
the t��o stations in Sunn�,-vale in the southbound direction in the AM pealc
hour); thus in the AM pealc hour Caltrain has a total capacit5-of 650 seats
(325 Limited Train capacit5-z 2 trains)in the southbound direction,��hich
«ould be sufficient to meet the eipected demand of 98 ne« southbound
Caltrain riders from the proposed project.

Simila�ly,in the northbound duection,the Limited Trains ha�e an a�ailable
capacit5-of 208 seats (650 i(1-0.681oacl factor)) and the Eipress Trains
ha�e an a�ailable capacity of approiimatel�-45 seats (650 seats i(1-0.93
loacl factor)). Bet��een 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. four Limited Trains and one
Eipress Train service the Sunn�,-vale and/or La��rence stations;thus in the
AM pealc hour Caltrain has a total capacit5-of 877 seats (208 Limited Train
capacit5-i 4 trains plus 45 Eipress Train capacit5-i 1 train)in the north-
bound direction,��hich is suff�icient to meet the eipected demand of 42
southbound Caltrain riders. The difference in tra�el times bet«een the
Limited and Eipress northbound trains is minimal;thus project employees
«ould be eipected to ride either seivice equally.
COMMENTER A8
Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority
Roy Molseed, Senior Environmental Planner
Michael T. Burns, General Manager
July 22,2013
Response A8-L This introductoi�-comment,��hich states that man�-of the Santa Clara Valle�-
Transportation Authorit�-'s (VTA's)prelimina��-concems about the project
��ere addressed in the Draft EIR and Transportation Impact Anal�-sis (TIA),
is noted.
Response A8-2: This comment,��hich requests that bus stops proposed acljacent to the project
site be designed such that VTA buses a�e unimpeded b5-Apple-related buses
and shuttles,is noted. The ne« VTA bus stops that«ould be developed as
pa�-t of the project on North Wolfe Roacl and North Tantau Avenue, as
described on page 111 of the Draft EIR,«ould be eiclusivel�-for VTA
vehicles.
Response A8-3: The proposed intersection modifications generally include minor��idening
such as the acldition of one lane on an approach. Due to the combination of the
modifications requiring only-minor«idening and the lo« transit, bic�-cle, and
pedestrian volumes in the vicinit�-of the affected intersections, secondai�-
impacts to non-auto modes«ould be less than significant and thus«ould not
require mitigation. It should be noted,ho��ever,that the designs for the
modifications«ould incorporate pedestrian-friendl�-treatments such as na�ro«
lane��idths and tight comer radii,��here appropriate. For eiample, at the
Homesteacl Road/Tantau Avenue (#27) and Stevens Creelc Bouleva�d/Tantau
Avenue (#32)intersections,the proposed mitigation measures,��hich involve
adding right-turn lanes, also include eliminating eiisting "porlc-chop"islands
to improve the pedestrian environment. In addition,mitigation measures that
include roacl�va�-«idening«ould generally-only occur at locations«here the
project is anticipated to acld a substantial amount of vehicle traffic, thus
resulting in poor LOS.

III. COMMENTS AND RESPONSES
Response A8-4: This comment encourages the Cit�-to consider altematives to��idening
intersections��hen Level of Service(LOS)thresholds a�e eiceeded. The
Draft EIR utilizes the significance criteria cui7entl�-used b�-the Cit�-.
Response A8-5: As discussed on pages 111 to 120 of the Draft EIR,the project��ould include
enhancements to bic�-cle and pedestrian facilities tluoughout the streets
sui7ounding the project site. In acldition, Mitigation Measure PLAN-2 and
Mitigation Measure PLAN-3 ��ould require Apple to implement additional
bilce and pedestrian facilit�-improvements,including a coordinated
��a�-finding scheme a�ound the project site perimeter, enhanced bilce lanes and
pedestrian paths along the North Wolfe Roacl bridge over I-280, other bic�-cle
and pedestrian amenities, ADA improvements, and an altemate Calabazas
Creelc path��a5-. Also, Mitigation Measures TRANS-23, TRANS-28, TRANS-
29��ould requue enhancements to the pedestrian envuonment at the North
Wolfe Road/Project Access intersection and at the I-280 ramps��ith Wolfe
Road. The Cit�-has identified all feasible mitigation to reduce the impacts of
road��a�-«idening on the pedestrian and bilce environment in the vicinit�-of
the project site.
Response A8-6: The appa�ent discrepanc5-identified in the TIA is that Intersection#21,
Wolfe Roacl/I-280 Northbound Ramps is indicated as ha�ing a significant
project impact in Table ES-1 under Bacicground plus Project and Cumulative
plus Project Conditions but is not included in Tables 15 and 16. The infor-
mation in Table ES-1 of the TIA is coi7ect. The intersection LOS for Wolfe
Road/I-280 Northbound Ramp intersection(#21)��as inadvertentl�-omitted
from Tables 15 and 16; although impacts��ere coi7ectl�-identif�ied in Impacts
TRANS-5 and TRANS-14 in the Draft EIR for Bacicground and Cumulative
plus Project conditions,respectively.
Response A8-7: This comment,��hich concurs��ith Mitigation Measure TRANS-22,is noted.
Response A8-8: An eipanded free��a�-segment anal�-sis��as conducted to provide more
information regarding Impact TRANS-22. This eipanded anal�-sis conducted
in response to this comment identifies impacts to additional free��a�-
segments. Page 398 of the Draft EIR��i11 be revised to reflect this anal�-sis
(see Chapter IV, Teit Revisions, and discussion belo��). These changes are
not considered "significant ne�� information"pursuant to CEQA Gz�idelines
Section 15088.5 because the�-do not represent a ne�� significant impact or a
substantial increase in the severit�-of an impact. The ne��1�-identified
segments include segments that a�e more distant from the project site than the
ones initiall�-identified in the Draft EIR. In addition,the amount of project
traffic that«ould be contributed to the ne«1�-identified segments«ould be
less than the amount of project traffic identified in the previously identified
segments. While the number of affected segments has increased,the intensit�-
of the impact has not increased, since the volume of project traffic diminishes
as distance from the project site increases. Therefore,the changes to this
impact represent refinements to the impact statement in the Draft EIR and do

COMMENTER Bl
Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition
Corinne Winter
July 22,2013
Response B1-L This introductoi�-comment,��hich states that"Apple has done an eiempla��-
job of incorporating [the Silicon Valle�-Bic�-cle Coalition's] suggestions to
malce this pa�t of Cupertino more bilce-friendly,"is noted.
Response B1-2: This comment,��hich discusses the improvements to bilce infrastructure and
facilities around the project site that Apple��ould implement as pa�-t of the
project,is noted. These improvements a�e discussed on pages 111 to 112 of
the Draft EIR and a�e graphically-depicted in Figures III-20a through III-20f
of the Draft EIR.
The TDM measures proposed as pa�-t of the project and referenced in the
comment are described on pages 121 to 122 of the Draft EIR.
Response B1-3: The operations of southbound North Tantau Avenue��ere comprehensivel�-
evaluated from a multi-modal perspective. Evaluation of the VISSIM model
results during the PM pealc hour sho��ed that the vehicula�volumes tra�eling
south from the project site and turning right onto Vallco Parlc��a�-��ould
��a�rant the provision of a second southbound through lane at the I-280
overcrossing. The provision of a single through lane on the I-280 overcross-
ing��ould result in a bottleneck��ith significant queues on southbound North
Tantau Avenue. It should be noted that eicessive queuing can leacl to impa-
tient driving beha�ior,«hich could adversel�-affect bic�-cle and pedestrian
tra�el on southbound North Tantau Avenue.
Response B 1-4: Reverse angle pa�lcing is safer for bic�-clists. Ho��ever,it is currentl�-not
being proposed for Vallco Parlc��a�-as it is not�-et an established vehicle
pa�lcing configuration and therefore is not familia�to most motorists.
Although the provision of 6-foot bilce lanes��ould further improve the
bic�-cling environment,the provision of 5-foot bilce lanes is aclequate and
meets Caltrans engineering standards.
Response B1-5: This concluding commentis noted.

COMMENTER B3
Concerned Citizens of Cupertino
July 17,2013
Response B3-L This comment,��hich conve�-s a table of contents for the remainder of the
letter,is noted.
Response B3-2: This comment provides information from the Cit�-of Menlo Pa�lc on the
Faceboolc Campus Project and a quote from the Cupertino Courier on the
Apple Campus 2 project, and is noted.
Response B3-3: This comment provides suggestions for the Cit�-to consider in acldressing
traffic congestion and pa�lcing. See also Master Response: Traf£ic
Congestion. In response to the comment, "What is the baseline number of
pealc hour trips,"as noted on page 388 of the Draft EIR,the baseline number
of dai1�-trips in the AM Pealc Hour is 1,270 and the number of PM Pealc
Hour trips is 1,587.
Response B3-4: As described in Chapter III,Project Description, a total of 14,200 employees
a�e proposed to be located at the Apple Campus 2 project at build-out. The
terms of Apple leases at other locations is not pa�t of the project evaluated in
the Draft EIR.
Response B3-5: Please see Chapter V., Setting, Impacts and Mitigation Measures,page 182
in the Draft EIR for a discussion of the baseline environmental setting used
in the Draft EIR The estimated amount of vehicle traf£ic to be added b�-the
project is as stated in the Transportation Impact Anal�-sis page iii, Appendii
B of the Draft EIR and on pages 387 and 388 of the Draft EIR.
Response B3-6: This comment provides information on pa�lcing ratios and spaces, and states
that the number of pa�lcing spaces provided is less than the number of spaces
required b5-the City's Parlcing Ordinance. See the evaluation of pa�lcing in
the Draft EIR on pages 432-437,��hich eiplains that in Planned
Development zones,in��hich the project is located,the pa�lcing ratios set out
in the Cit�-'s Parlcing Ordinance ma�-be used as a guideline and that it is
appropriate to consider site-and project-specific parlcing needs. The Draft
EIR anal�-zes the anticipated pa�lcing needs and concludes that the amount of
pa�lcing provided��ould be adequate for the project��ith implementation of
Mitigation Measure TRANS-35. The Cit�-has balanced the need to provide
aclequate parlcing to ensure that neighboring a�eas are not impacted and the
concept of using limited parlcing as a tool to manage the number of people
that drive to the project site, and has concluded that the provision of 10,980
pa�lcing spaces is aclequate, based in pa�t on the pa�lcing stud5-conducted at
the Infinite Loop and Mariani Avenue campuses. The Draft EIR confirms
that the proposed pa�lcing«ould be adequate to meet on-site demand,«hile

III. COMMENTS AND RESPONSES
Response B3-7: The eiisting level of service at the intersection of Blane�-Avenue/Homesteacl
Road (Intersection#13) and Wolfe Roacl/Stevens Creelc Bouleva�d (Intersec-
tion#24)is sho��n in Figure V.I-6 on page 371 of the Draft EIR The level of
seivice at these intersections��ith the project is sho��n on Figure V.I-8 on
page 392 of the Draft EIR.
The intersections of Blane�-Avenue/Stevens Creelc Bouleva�d and Stevens
Creelc Boulevard/Perimeter Road«ere not included as stud�-intersections,
and thus associated level of seivice is not reported in the Draft EIR The side
streets at these intersections ha�e compa�atively-lo�� traffic volumes and the�-
operate at good levels of seivice. The project��ould add traffic to the Stevens
Creelc Boulevard approaches at these intersections,��hich have eicess
capacit5-. Therefore it��as determined that the proj ect��ould not ha�e an
impact at these locations and no further anal�-sis��as required.
Wolfe Roacl and Perimeter Road do not intersect. The comment is lilcel�-
referring to the right-tum-on1�-ramp connectors bet��een Wolfe Road and
Perimeter Road. These connectors are right-tum-on1�-locations to and from
the Vallco Shopping Mall,��ith fe�� conflicting movements and,therefore,
«ere not anal�-zed. Perimeter Road«as designed to accommodate traffic
��ith full occupanc5-of the shopping center. An�-traffic added b�-the project
to Perimeter Road��ould comprise people shopping at the center and��ould
not eiceed the capacit5-of the road��a�-. Therefore no anal�-sis of project
impacts along Perimeter Road��as conducted.
Response B3-8: The project sponsor��ould be required to��orlc��ith the Cit�-of Cupertino,
VTA, and Caltrans to construct interchange improvements,including ramp
��idening, at the Wolfe Roacl/I-280 interchange,to mitigate project impacts.
The sponsor��ould also be required to pa5-a fair share contribution to the
planned Eipress Lanes on SR 85 and malce either a contribution to the BRT
planned on Stevens Creelc Bouleva�d or an altemative improvement or stud�-
to��a�ds the improvement of the I-280 coi7idor to offset free��a�-impacts.
While the Eipress Lane project does not add lanes,it allo��s single occupant
vehicles (SOVs)to use the ca�pool lane,thus allo��ing more SOVs to use the
other lanes,therefore improving free��a5-operations. Both the VTA and
Caltrans support this approach.
Response B3-9: Unused traffic mitigation funds��ould be returned to Apple.

Samsung and the Cit�-of Mountain Vie��,the TDM monitoring program, as
described on pages 443 to 448 of the Draft EIR,��ould institute substantial
penalties if Apple does not meet the established pealc trip counts goal.
Furthermore, such penalties��ould be assessed for evei�-da�-during the
established monitoring period that the pealc trip counts eiceed the goal.
Please see Master Response#12: Trip Cap and Master Response: Adequac5-

Penalties, even a modest eiceedance of 200 trips during the AM pealc period
and 200 trips during the PM pealc period (approiimatel�-4.7 percent of the
AM pealc trip counts goal and 4.5 percent of the PM pealc trip counts goal)
��ould incur a penalt5-of$260,000 over a 6-month monitoring period. These
penalties are compa�able to those established b�-the Cit�-of Mountain Vie��

suggested in this comment is simila�to three altematives considered in the
Draft EIR The retention of Pruneridge Avenue as a public right-of-��a�-��as
incorporated into a project altemative (the Pruneridge Avenue altemative),
��hich is discussed on pages 605 to 612 of the Draft EIR. As discussed on
page 626 of the Draft EIR,t��o additional altematives allo��ing for public
access across the site (a Pruneridge Avenue Tunnel altemative and a Mobilit�-

also require aclditional off-haul of soil and��ould increase greenhouse gas
emissions at the project site. Simila�ly,the construction of a"land bridge"
over Pruneridge Avenue could require the import of more material(and
associated air pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions).
The development of a bridge across the project site, connecting North Wolfe
Road to North Tantau Avenue,��ould result in significant visual and other
environmental impacts, such as noise impacts,to the adjacent neighbors,
especially-sensitive receptors at The Hamptons. The foundation for such a

Chapter's guidelines for evaluating development projects,is noted.
Response B22-3: This comment lists components of the project that the commenter supports.
Please see Master Response#4: Nitrogen Deposition for an eiplanation of
the finding in the Draft EIR that the proj ect��ould not malce a signif�icant
contribution to cumulative impacts associated��ith nitrogen deposition.
Response B22-4: This comment introduces the neit several comments,��hich focus on the
transportation impacts of the project.
Response B22-5: The mode-sha�e split target of 34 percent identified for the project in
Mitigation Measure TRANS-9b is reasonable given the project's suburban
location and distance from rail stations,��hich pose an impediment to a large
scale adoption of mass transit seivices. Some Caltrain stations a�e reasonabl�-
close (i.e., La��rence and Sunn�,-vale), but lacic the eipress seivice offered at
the Mountain Vie�� station,for eiample. Apple��ould acldresses the relative
sca�cit�-of public transit services b�-aclding TDM strategies. Apple's cui7ent
TDM Program includes a variet�-of ineasures to reduce travel b�-single
occupanc5-vehicles,including the use of commuter coach bus seivices,mass
transit shuttle linlcs,ride share matching, bilce facilities,transit initiatives,
sha�ed bic�-cles, short-term ca�rentals, among others. Refer to pages 59 to
60 of the Draft EIR for a complete list of current TDM measures. While a
higher non-single occupant vehicle (SOV)mode sha�e��ould be supported
b�-the Cit�-of Cupertino,the measures needed to achieve such a higher mode
sha�e could�-ield unacceptable consequences (including increased pa�lcing
demand in residential neighborhoods acljacent to the project site). Thus the
diversion rate achieved at Faceboolc or Stanford ma�-not be desirable at the
project site,��hen��eighing competing interests. The Cit�-��eighed these
competing concems in requiring achievement of the 34 percent goal. As pa�-t
of the project,Apple��ould continue to implement, and further eipand,its
TDM Program,��ith a mandatoi�-target to increase the altemative mode
sha�e from 28 percent to 34 percent(i.e., a reduction in pealc hour trips of 6
percentage points). Counting the total number of"pealc hour vehicle trip
counts"at each of the project drive��a�-s��ould help determine��hether
Apple is meeting the required 34 percent target mode sha�e set b�-the Cit�-.
Apple��ould provide supplemental information about the TDM Program
being implemented and rate of use of the TDM measures.
The project's TDM goal of 34 percent at full buildout has been identified as a
reasonable target because it is considered relatively-aggressive but achievable
for office developments in suburban locations greater than '/z mile from a rail
station. To ensure that Apple achieves and maintains its targeted TDM
pa�-ticipation rate,the Cit�-��ould require implementation of the monitoring
program, described in the TDM Program Eipansion subsection of the Draft
EIR(see pages 441-444)and in Master Response#9: Monitoring TDM
Program. An�-failure to achieve 34 percent participation��ould result in

financial fines and penalties. The Cit�-��ould continue to��orlc��ith Apple to
identi�-opportunities to minimize commutes b�-single occupanc5-vehicles,
but believes the mitigation requuement is appropriate as a minimum
threshold.
Response B22-6: The Cit�-of Cupertino supports using TDM measures to reduce vehicle
traffic in lieu of constructing intersection vehicle capacit5-improvements,in
accordance��ith a TDM First strateg5-. To this end,the Cit�-has��orlced
closel�-��ith Apple to identifi-a relatively-aggressive but achievable TDM
pa�-ticipation rate of 34 percent. Ho��ever, a TDM Fust strateg5-ma5-be
impractical or undesirable. For eiample,the comment suggests eipanding
pa�lcing capacit5-only once all TDM measures ha�e been ezhausted. Because
all parlcing«ould be provided either underground or in structures,it«ould
be infeasible to retrofit the site design to acld parlcing if TDM measures prove
to be insufficient. For that reason,the Cit�-has anal�-zed the pa�lcing proposed
b�-Apple to ensure that it accommodates demand«ithout incentivizing the
use of single occupancy motor vehicles. As discussed on pages 434 to 436 of
the Draft EIR,the pa�lcing proposed for the site is based on a 34 percent
TDM participation rate. Further, once the project is built and if the TDM
measures do not achieve the needed vehicle trip reduction,it ma�-be
infeasible for the Cit�-to require the project sponsor to construct the
intersection improvements to reduce the impacts associated��ith lo��er-than-
eipected TDM pa�ticipation. In this case,the significant road��a�-impacts
��ould remain unmitigated. For several significantl�-affected intersections,
the level of TDM pa�-ticipation needed to achieve an acceptable level of
operation«as determined to be infeasible—in most circumstances, requiring
pa�-ticipation far in eicess of 65 percent. The Cit�-has balanced the need to
ensure acceptable transportation conditions against identi�-ing an aggressive
but achievable TDM pa�ticipation rate. The TDM program does not preclude
the abilit�-of Apple to increase its implementation to higher levels in the
future if deemed feasible.
Response B22-7: This comment suggests that the trees proposed for removal as pa�-t of the
project be relocated. As discussed on page 95 of the Draft EIR, of the 4,506
eiisting trees on the site at least 90 trees«ould be transplanted. In addition,
3,620 trees��ould be removed. The identification of trees appropriate for
transplantation��as the result of several a�borist studies conducted on the
project site, culminating in A Review of the Consolidated ANboNist RepoNt foN
the Apple C'ampz�s 2 PNOject.' That document indicated general agreement on
the trees proposed for transplant versus removal. Trees��ere rejected as
candidates for transplant due to several reasons,including 1)poor health; 2)
diminished potential to suivive a transplant; 3) conflicts��ith eiisting
utilities; or 4) constraints associated��ith steep slopes and other eiisting site
conditions. Furthermore, of the eiisting trees on the site, approiimatel�-75

perspective.
Response B22-8: As discussed on pages 130 to 133 of the Draft EIR,��hile the use of rec�-cled
��ater is not required as part of the project, Apple has designed into the
project the abilit�-to use rec�-cled��ater in the cooling s5-stems and for
limited indoor uses. Apple is also evaluating the use of rec�-cled��ater for
ii7igation. The lilcelihood of eitending a rec5-cled��ater line to the project site
��as speculative��hen the Draft EIR��as being prepa�ed, but such an
eitension is supported by Apple and the Cit�-.� In addition,the eitension of a
rec�-cled��ater line into the project site��ould require approval of other
jurisdictions in addition to the Cit�-of Cupertino.
Response B22-9: As discussed on page 257,impacts related to the encroachment of develop-
ment into the Calabazas Creelc coi7idor��ould be less than significant, as the
buffer a�ound the creelc that��ould be provided as part of the project��ould
aclequately protect the creek and its adjacent banlcs. In acldition, as described
on page 196 of the Draft EIR,the 50-foot buffer��ould comply-��ith the basic
creelc setbacic requirement established in the Santa Clara Valle�-Water
Resources Protection Collaborative's Guidelines and Standa�ds for Land Use
Near Streams. In the absence of Cit�-of Cupertino regulations for creelc
buffers on private land,the eipansion of the buffer a�ound the creelc to 100
feet��ould not reduce an�-of the significant effects of the project,including
those less-than-significant impacts on jurisdictional��aters and��ildlife
coi7idors, because the creelc sui7oundings are cui7entl�-highly-urbanized.
Furthermore,the project��ould increase the amount of peivious suifaces on-
site,from approiimatel�-43 acres to 102 acres,��hich ma5-provide
storm��ater qualit5-benefits,including to Calabazas Creelc.

aesthetic character of the project site perimeter. Mitigation Measure PLAN-3
��ould requue aesthetic and functional improvements along an alternate creelc

These improvements��ould include signage,plantings that reference
Calabazas Creelc,pedestrian-scaled lighting,rest a�eas or picnic tables,

fencing and guard rails.
Response B22-12: This comment,��hich does not pertain to the adequac5-of the Draft EIR,is
noted.
Response B22-13: The comment suggests that the Cit�-ask or require that Apple not increase
vehicle trips over eiisting or"baseline" conditions. This suggestion��ould be
inconsistent��ith the objective of accommodating 14,200 employees. While
the actual emplo5-ee capacit5-of the site toda�-is 9,800,for CEQA baseline
purposes,the number of emplo5-ees��as assumed to be 4,844,��hich��as the
estimated number of emplo5-ees��orlcing at the project site in August 2011,
the date the Notice of Preparation��as issued (eiisting emplo5-ment on the
site has diminished further since August 2011). At that point,He��lett-
Packa�d��as departing the site, and Apple��as occupying only a portion of
the site,in prepa�ation for the project. In acldition,most of those 4,844
emplo5-ees a�e eiisting Apple emplo5-ees,meaning that the5-alreacly have a
compa�atively-lo�� trip generation due to the eiisting TDM Program.
Achieving an increase of 9,356 employees��ithout increasing vehicle trips
«ould not be feasible and«ould constrain emplo5-ment gro«-th at the project
site. Please also refer to Master Response#12: Trip Cap.
Response B22-14: The Cit�-does not ha�e a traffic impact fee. In lieu of imposing such a fee,
the Cit�-requires major development projects to undergo CEQA revie��, and
requires development project sponsors to fund improvements identif�ied as
mitigation measures in CEQA revie�� documents. In this��ay,the Cit�-
ensures that there is a neius bet��een project impacts and transportation
improvement measures.
Response B22-15: As discussed on page 156 of the Draft EIR,the Cit�-imposes a Housing
Mitigation Fee on office,industrial,hotel,retail, and resea�ch and develop-
ment uses that funds the development of affordable housing throughout the
Cit�-. As part of the project,Apple��ould pa5-double the rate applicable to

July 22,2013
Response B23-L This introductoi�-comment is noted.
Response B23-2: This comment introduces a mitigation measure that is suggested to substitute
for Mitigation Measure TRANS-23,��hich��ould require Apple to reduce the
number of left-tum lanes at the Main Project Drive��a�-on North Wolfe Road
from three to t��o.
Response B23-3: This comment states that the Apple's proposal for tluee left-tum lanes eiiting
the project site on to North Wolfe Roacl can be implemented��ithout creating
the��ea�ing impact identified in Impact TRANS-23, and��ithout implement-
ing Mitigation Measure TRANS-23,��hich��ould require reducing the
number of left-tum lanes from three to t��o. The Draft EIR full�-anal�-zes the
impacts of three left-tum lanes eiiting the project site on to North Wolf Road
(see pages 414 to 418 of the Draft EIR), and concludes that the impacts on
traffic operations��ould be less than significant but that a three-lane
drive��a�-eiit design��ould ha�e a significant impact on safet�-due to
"��ea�ing."Mitigation Measure TRANS-23,��hich requires the number of
drive«a�-left-tum lanes to be reduced from three to t«o,«ould reduce this
impact to a less-than-significant level(see pages 416 to 418 of the Draft
EIR).
The commenter states that the��ea�ing impact is unlilcel�-to occur for the
reasons stated in the comment, and that the follo��ing measures also��ould
reduce the��eaving impact to a less-than-significant level��ithout requuing a
reduction to t��o lanes: (i)installing clea�signage at the eiit approach,
including overhead signs,painted duections on lanes and appropriate lane
striping, (ii)intemal employee education; and (iii)traffic monitors.
The commenter proposes that these measures be implemented for a nine-
month period during«hich the drive«a�-eiit«ould be monitored b�-an
independent observer at the eipense of the project sponsor. If the��eaving
behavior predicted in the Draft EIR is obseived,the third lane«ould be
closed.
In response to this comment, Cit�-staff and Cit�-consultants evaluated the
commenter's proposal,and the Cit�-has concluded that the follo��ing
altemative mitigation measure��ould reduce the impact to a less-than-
significant level in lieu of reducing the proposed drive��a�-eiit to t��o lanes.
In order to fu11�-evaluate the effectiveness of the measure and to consider an�-
aclditional design refinements that might be«ai7anted, the measure«ould be
implemented on a nine-month trial basis.

Page 418 of the Draft EIR is revised as follo��s:
Imnact TRANS-23: Based on City of Cupertino standards,the
design of the project with three left-turn lanes on the Wolfe Road
driveway approach would cause a substantial increase in
conflicts due to vehicles weaving on Wolfe Road between the
driveway and the I-280 ramps in order to merge and align into
the correct lanes to enter the freeway upon exiting the campus.
(S)
Implementation of one of the follo��in�t��o miti�ation measures
��ould reduce this impact to a less-than-si�nificant level:
Miti�ation Measure TRANS-23: At the main project drive��a�-on
Wolfe Road,the project sponsor shall reduce the number of left tum
lanes from three to t��o. This��ould reduce the��ea�ing on
southbound Wolfe Road bet��een the drive��a�-and the I-280
northbound on-ramp since there«ould be, at most, a one-lane lane
change in order for drivers to align themselves to the coi7ect lane.

throughout the Draft EIR. As discussed on page 92 of the Draft EIR, "The
net increase of ne�� emplo5-ees assumed for the purpose of this EIR(9,356)
ma�-over-estimate the number of net ne�� emplo5-ees in the project a�ea

Draft EIR(Aesthetics section) and 261 of the Draft EIR(Biological
Resources section). Although the removal of the former HP Campus
red��ood grove��ould change the visual cha�acter of the site,this change
«ould not be considered significant and aclverse because: those trees are
located��ithin the interior of the site and are not vei�-visible from public

As indicated on page 400 of the Draft EIR,t��o stud�-intersections along
Homesteacl Roacl«ould be substantiall�-aclversel�-affected«ith implementa-
tion of the proposed project: Intersection#5 (De Anza Bouleva�d and
Homesteacl Road) and Intersection#27 (Tantau Avenue and Homestead
Road). These intersections«ould also be substantiall�-adversel�-affected
under cumulative plus project conditions, as indicated on page 410 of the
Draft EIR. Under cumulative conditions,the average increase in dela�-

Response C14-L Implementation of the project��ould result in the removal of a maiimum of
3,620 trees from the project site. As discussed on page 95 of the Draft EIR,
��ith implementation ofthe project, aminimum of 800 trees��ould be
retained in place on the project site (including the majorit5-of the site
perimeter trees and trees along the Calabazas Creelc ripa�ian coi7idor), and a
minimum of 90 mature trees��ould be transplanted from the interior of the
site to either the perimeter or to specific locations in the interior of the site. In
order to mitigate the tree removals in accordance��ith the Cit�-'s Protected
Tree Ordinance and to increase vegetation at the site,Apple proposes to plant
a minimum of 6,200 ne�� trees on the project site,resulting in a net increase
of 2,494 trees.

significant effects on bic�-cling and pedestrian infrastructure in the area and
that the project��ould generate significant traffic congestion. These impacts
a�e identified as signif�icant and una�oidable in the Draft EIR. See the
summai�-of signif�icant and una�oidable project impacts on pages 6 to 7 of
the Draft EIR.
Response C38-4: The shuttle service suggested by the commenter��as not identified as a
mitigation measure due to: 1)the relativel�-lo« numbers of pedestrians and
c�-clists that use the segment of Pruneridge Avenue��ithin the project site
that��ould be vacated; 2)the relativel�-short length of the pedestrian detour
that��ould be required due to the closure of Pruneridge Avenue; 3)the
relativel�-high cost of running such a shuttle seivice at a frequenc5-that
«ould be convenient to pedestrians; and 4)the adverse effects on au
pollution and traffic congestion associated��ith such a shuttle seivice.
Response C38-5: The project��ould include substantial transportation improvements, as
described on pages 381 to 384 of the Draft EIR,��hich��ould add road��a�-
capacit5-to reduce the amount of traffic congestion that could occur. In
acldition, Apple��ould eipand its TDM Program (including its dedicated

percentage of emplo5-ees��ho use transit,��alking, bic5-cling, and shared ride
modes of transport to and from��orlc from 28 percent to 34 percent to reduce

Response C40-3: As proposed,the project��ould provide a shuttle stop pullout on the south
side of East Homestead Road just east of the North Wolfe Road intersection.
The stop��ould on1�-be used b�-Apple's 15-seat emplo5-ee Sprinter vans. Use
of the Sprinter vans that��ould use the stop on East Homestead Road��ould
be limited to employees��ho a�e traveling to or lea�ing the Corporate Fitness
Center. The relativel�-small number of vans accessing the Corporate Fitness
Center«ould not substantiall�-increase traffic on East Homestead Road.
Most project emplo5-ees��ould use the Transit Center on North Tantau
Avenue.
Response C40-4: As discussed on pages 432 to 437 of the Draft EIR,the proposed project
��ould provide adequate pa�lcing on-site (��ith implementation of Mitigation
Measure TRANS-35),thus limiting the demand for off-site pa�lcing. As part

Response C43-1: As discussed on page 215,project effects due to light and gla�e��ould be
less-than-signif�icant at all locations,including nea�Receptor 4,��hich is nea�
the location described b�-the commenter. As sho«n in Table V.B-1,
llluminance Assessment of Receptor Locations,the illuminance value at
Receptor 4��ould increase b�-on1�-0.130 footcandle��ith implementation of
the proposed project(far belo�� the threshold of 0.8 footcandle).
Response C43-2: This intersection��as not included in the anal�-sis because, as the comment
notes,it is a minor all-��a�-stop controlled intersection (and thus��ould not
be subject to substantial project traff�ic). Felu&Peers conducted follo��-up
obseivations at this intersection in September 2013. The observations
indicate that the intersection operates at approiimatel�-LOS C in both the
AM and PM pealc periods,��hich is an acceptable level of seivice. Although
queuing of up to sii ca�s��as obseived on Pruneridge Avenue,no eicessive
queuing or unsafe driving behavior«as obseived.
Response C43-3: As sho��n in Figure V.I-7,Project Trip Distribution,the intersection of
Pruneridge Avenue and North Tantau Avenue is not projected to eiperience
substantial increases in vehicle trips. Thus the relativel�-minor change in
operation at this intersection is not surprising.

requiring shuttle transport,ifnecessa�y). These employees��ould be given
advance notice of the pa�lcing restrictions, and provision«ould be made for
pa�lcing at other locations��ithin the project site or other Apple facilities in the
a�ea. Special events��ould occur approiimatel�-three to four times a�-ea�, and
on these occasions—due to the pa�lcing protocols established b�-Apple—no
significant spillover pa�lcing is eipected to occur off-site.
Response C43-5: As sho��n on page 453 of Section V.J,Noise, of the Draft EIR,the purpose
of the short-term noise monitoring��as to establish the eiisting ambient noise
environment at sensitive land uses in the vicinit�-of the project site. These
noise measurements��ere not used in the anal�-sis of significant impacts.
Modeled traffic noise levels that«ould be eiperienced under project condi-
tions«ere compa�ed to modeled traf£ic noise levels under conditions«ithout
the project and��ere not compared to eiisting measured noise levels. Using
modeled noise levels,rather than measured noise levels,is standa�d practice
and is considered to produce more accurate results since measured noise
during a single day or a small number of da�-s ma�-not be representative of
project conditions.
In rega�d to potential project-related noise increases for residences on
Pruneridge Avenue, based on the anticipated trip distribution pattern of the
proposed project,the segment of Pruneridge Avenue bet��een North Tantau
Avenue and La��rence Eipress��ay��ould eiperience less than 1 percent of
total project trips. Therefore, simila�to all other road��a�-segments��ith
higher project trip volumes that��ere modeled and anal�-zed in the noise
anal�-sis,project-related traffic noise impacts along Pruneridge Avenue
��ould be less than significant.

Response C52-L The segment of Pruneridge Avenue��ithin the site that��ould be closed as
pa�t of the project is not a designated emergenc5-access route. With the
addition of project traffic,there«ould be added dela�-s on Homestead Road
during the pealc commute periods;ho«ever,the dela�-s«ould not be severe.
For eiample,in the evening��hen commute congestion is greater,the dela�-
on eastbound Homestead Road (to��ards Kaiser Hospital) at Wolfe Road is
estimated to increase b�- 10 seconds. Similarly,the dela�-on southbound
Wolfe Road to��a�ds Kaiser Hospital is estimated to increase b�- 15 seconds.

Response C53-L Impact AIR-1 and Impact AIR-2 identif�-impacts to regional air qualit5-
attainment standa�ds from eiceedances in criteria pollutant thresholds (see
Table V.L-5 and Table V.L-7 of the Draft EIR). As sho��n in Table V.L-5,
construction emissions of ozone precursors (ROG and NOi)«ould eiceed
the Ba�-Area Au Qualit�-Management District(BAAQMD)threshold for
a�erage daily-construction emissions. As sho��n in Table V.L-7, operational
anal�-sis results indicate the net ne« project emissions«ould eiceed the
BAAQMD's threshold for ROG,NO,,PMz.;and PM,o.
The prima��-source of construction emission eiceedances is construction
trucic trips,��hile the prima��-source of project operation emissions is mobile
source emissions generated b�-employee,visitor, and vendor vehicle trips to
and from the project site. These emissions associated��ith the project a�e
regional in nature,meaning that air pollutants a�e rapidly-dispersed or,in the
case of vehicle emissions associated��ith the project,emissions a�e released
in other a�eas of the au basin. Because the resulting emissions are dispersed
rapidly-and contribute on1�-a small fraction of the region's air pollution, air
qualit5-in the immediate vicinit�-of the project site (including the Kaiser
Hospital)��ould not substantiall�-change compa�ed to eiisting conditions as

Pruneridge Avenue��ith General Plan policies is discussed under Impacts
PLAN-2,PLAN-5, and PLAN-6 in the Draft EIR.
Response C54-2: Impacts related to the closure of Pruneridge Avenue��ould be significant and

the parlcing proposed for the site«ould be aclequate to meet demand«ith

(Project Construction Emissions)on page 504 and Table V.K-3 on page 510.
This comment also requests the quantification of ca�bon emissions from the
off-site production of construction materials. The term "total carbon footprint"
is subject to a��ide va�iet�-of interpretations. The Draft EIR contains an
eitensive anal�-sis of the greenhouse gas emissions eipected to result from
construction and operation of the project. For the construction anal�-sis,
transportation of construction materials to the site and onsite construction
activities ha�e been estimated and evaluated. To the eitent the commenter is
inquuing about manufacturing processes off-site,there is eitensive publicly
a�ailable information on the estimated emissions associated��ith processes
such as cement production, steel production, and glass manufacturing. At this
stage in the planning process, due to variations in construction suppliers and
vendors,it is not possible to develop an accurate estimate of construction

lifec�-cle emissions. Off-site production of greenhouse gas emissions is
typically-monitored and inventoried for compliance��ith State greenhouse gas
reduction goals independently-from the end product user. Additionally, an
anal�-sis of total construction lifec�-cle emissions is not required b5-the
California Air Resources Boa�d or the Ba�-Area Air Qualit�-Management
District for CEQA documents, and specific methodologies for calculating
such emissions ha�e not been mandated.
The attribution of such emissions is also typically-assigned in the first instance
to the producer,not the end product user. For eiample,the World Resources
Institute has observed that"[t]he significant quantities of energy and GHG
[greenhouse gas] emissions that a�e embodied in these products are,under
prevailing GHG accounting s5-stems, attributed to the counti�-of production,
not consumption."i
As for the consideration of emissions that��ould not ha�e occui7ed hacl the
project not occui7ed,the Draft EIR has anal�-zed and considered the
greenhouse gas emissions for this project, as compa�ed to the baseline
conditions (as requued b5-CEQA),to determine the emissions attributable to
the project.Please refer to the eitensive sustainabilit�-features that��ould be
designed into the project, described on pages 134 to 136 of the Draft EIR,

Response C110-L This introductoi�-comment is noted.
Response C110-2: This comment,��hich is noted,pertains generally-to the merits of the project
design and not the adequac5-of the Draft EIR The anal�-sis in Section V.I,
Transportation and Cuculation,talces into account eipected visitors to the
project site.With the eiception of special events,visitation to the site is
eipected to be modest. Furthermore,most visitors«ould ai7ive at and depart
the campus during the midday,��hen traf£ic volumes on the surrounding
road«a�-net��orlc a�e lo«er.

III. COMMENTS AND RESPONSES
land use patterns in general, on pages 149 to 152 and 188 to 190 of the Draft
EIR.
Response C110-4: This comment is noted. In establishing the parlcing supply-for the project
(and crafting related mitigation),the lcey objective«as to balance the
probable demand for parlcing at the site��ith the understanding that too much
pa�lcing ma5-incentivize driving. As discussed in pages 432 to 437 of the
Draft EIR,the parlcing supply-talces into account visitor parlcing spaces, and
carpooling, and thus does not coi7elate directl�-��ith the desued 34 percent
single occupancy vehicle diversion rate required as part of Mitigation
Measure TRANS-9b.
Response C 110-5: The 34 percent trip diversion requirement in Mitigation Measure TRANS-9b
is appropriate given Apple's location in a suburban setting. This requirement
does not suggest that Apple cannot achieve a higher altemative mode sha�e.
The t��o eiamples cited in the comment a�e not completely-analogous to
Apple. Stanford has facult�-housing nea�campus��hich supports higher
bic�-cle use. Unlilce the project site, both Stanford and Genentech a�e adjacent
to high-frequenc5-Caltrain stations and located closer to regional
transportation hubs.
Response C110-6: The proposed roacl��a�-modif�ications generally-include minor��idening such
as the addition of one lane on an approach. Due to the combination of the
modifications requiring only-minor«idening and the lo« transit, bic�-cle, and
pedestrian volumes in the vicinit�-of the affected intersections, secondai�-
impacts to non-auto modes«ould be less than signif�icant. It should be noted,
ho��ever,that the designs for the modifications��ould incorporate pedestrian-
friendl�-treatments such as na�ro�� lane��idths and tight comer raclii,��here
appropriate. In addition,mitigation measures that include roacl��a�-��idening
��ould generally-only occur at locations��here the project is anticipated to
acld a substantial amount of vehicle traffic. In general,the preference of the
Cit�-is to a�oid road��a�-��idening��here possible. Therefore, afundamental
mitigation measure in the Draft EIR is Mitigation Measure TRANS-34,
��hich��ould require a 34 percent trip diversion rate (through implementation
of a TDM Program)that is robust considering the relativel�-suburban setting
of the project.
Response C110-7: The comment about the Cit�-'s minimum pa�lcing requirements is noted. As
discussed on page 443 of the Draft EIR, if Apple is unsuccessful at meeting
the trip diversion goal requued in Mitigation Measure TRANS-9b,it��ould
be required to implement additional TDM measures. One such measure could
include a parlcing cash-out program,or simila�incentive to reduce parlcing
demand.
Response C110-8: The closure of the Cupertino Village south entrance represents the closure of
one ofthree drive��a�-s on North Wolfe Road. In addition, Cupertino Village
is accessible via the North Wolfe Road/Pruneridge Avenue intersection.

III. COMMENTS AND RESPONSES
Given the multiple altemative access points onto North Wolfe Roacl,the
closure of the southem Cupertino Village drive��a�-is eipected to result in a
negligible increase in traffic on East Homestead Road and��ould not
compromise the viabilit�-of businesses in the shopping center.
Response C110-9: The closure of Pruneridge Avenue is identified as significant and unavoidable
for several impact areas in the Draft EIR(see Impacts PLAN-2,PLAN-5,
PLAN-6, TRANS-31, TRANS-32, TRANS-33, and TRANS-34.
Response C110-10: These reference materials,used to support the previous comments, a�e noted.
COMMENTER C111
Sylvia Gallegos
July 22,2013
Response C111-1: CEQA requues the leacl agenc5-malce all adopted mitigation measures
enforceable and to adopt a mitigation monitoring and reporting program that
meets the requirements of CEQA Sections 21081.6(a)(1) and (b),��hich
requires the City, as lead agenc5-,to be responsible for monitoring
implementation of all adopted mitigation measures that a�e��ithin its
responsibilit�-and jurisdiction. The comment suggesting formation of a citizen
committee to oversee mitigation monitoring is noted.
Response C111-2: The transportation anal�-sis of the Reduced Densit�-altemative in Chapter VI,
Altematives,«as conducted at a lesser level of detail than the proposed
project, consistent��ith Section 15126.6(d) ofthe CEQA Gz�idelines.
Ho��ever,the anal�-sis��as suff�icientl�-detailed to compare the specif�ic
impacts of the project on the transportation s�-stem to those that��ould result
from the Reduced Densit�-altemative—to "allo�� meaningful evaluation,
anal�-sis, and compa�ison��ith the proposed project."
Response C111-3: This comment,��hich relates to eiisting bic5-cle facilit�-conditions that
��ould not be affected b�-the project,is noted.No further response is
required.
Response C111-4: As discussed on page 443 of the Draft EIR,if Apple is unsuccessful at
meeting the trip diversion goal required in Mitigation Measure TRANS-9b,it
«ould be required to implement additional TDM measures. One such
measure could include a pa�lcing cash-out program,��hich is included in the
list of TDM measures for future consideration.
Response C 111-5: One of the aclditional TDM measures identified on page 443 of the Draft EIR
(«hich could be employed if Apple does not meet its required trip diversion
goal)is an eipansion of the campus car-sharing fleet,��hich, as suggested,
malces use of the Apple shuttle more attractive. As for the acquisition or use
of pa�lc-and-ride lots, as described in the Draft EIR,if 34 percent TDM

pa�-ticipation is not achieved,the Cit�-��ould��ork��ith Apple to identifi-
aclditional measures. One option that ma�-be considered b�-the Cit�-and
Apple as another potentiall�-viable TDM measure is the acquisition or use of
pa�lc-and-ride lots, although the need,location, and approval of such off-site
facilities is speculative and ma�-requue aclditional environmental and
discretiona��-revie«. At this point,it is not anticipated that parlc-and-ride lots
��ould be needed to achieve the 34 percent TDM participation because other
measures a�e eipected to be successful in diverting trips, so the5-are not
included as a specific measure in the Draft EIR.
Response C111-6: As discussed on pages 148 to 149 of the Draft EIR,the 1.1-acre requirement
for Mitigation Measure PLAN-1 is based on the 1.1-acre portion of the
project site that«ould be re-designated from Parlcs and Open Space to
Industrial/Residential as pa�t of the project. Replacement pa�k space need not
be developed in close proiimit5-to the project site (because the parlc
designation��as pa�-t of a residential project that��as never built, and the pa�lc
��as never constructed).Ho��ever,the Cit�-��ould consider local allocations
of pa�lc space as a factor in pursuing development of the pa�lc space
else��here in the Citv.

Response C112-1: Rega�ding the comment about the closure of Pruneridge Avenue,this issue is
discussed throughout the Draft EIR, and in pa�-ticula�pages 150 to 152; 156
to 159; and 427 to 430. Traffic in the vicinit�-of the project site is discussed
throughout Section V.I, Transportation and Circulation, of the Draft EIR.
Requuing Apple to bus children to school as mitigation for project-related
traffic impacts��as rejected from detailed consideration in the Draft EIR for
the reasons discussed in Master Response#15: School Busing Program.
Mitigation Measure PLAN-1��ould requue Apple to provide sufficient funds
for the acquisition of 1.1 acres of property for the future development of a
pa�lc, or agree to purchase,designate, and dedicate to the Cit�- 1.1 acres of the
land else��here in the Cit�-as Pa�lcs and Open Space.

improvements around the project site,including continuous bilce lanes on
North Tantau Avenue bet��een East Homestead Roacl and Stevens Creelc
Boulevard, as discussed on pages 111 to 112 of the Draft EIR.
Response C114-3: As pa�-t of Mitigation Measure TRANS-6, Apple��ould be required to
modifi-the East Homestead Road/North Tantau Avenue intersection to
provide an eiclusive eastbound right-tum lane. With this modif�ication, as
sho��n in Appendii H of the Transportation Impact Anal�-sis (Appendii B of

discussed throughout the Draft EIR, but refer pa�-ticularl�-to pages 150-152;
156-159; and 427-430. With the addition of project traf£ic,there��ould be
added dela�-s on Homestead Road during the pealc commute periods;
ho��ever,the dela�-s��ould not be severe. For eiample, in the evening��hen
commute congestion is greater,the dela�-on eastbound Homestead Road
(to��a�ds Kaiser Hospital) at Wolfe Roacl is estimated to increase b�- 10
seconds. Simila�ly,the dela�-on southbound Wolfe Road to«a�ds Kaiser
Hospital is estimated to increase b�- 15 seconds. Emergency vehicles��ould

Page 394 of the Draft EIR is revised as follo��s:
Impact TRANS-1: Under Existing plus Project Conditions, completion of the proposed
project would cause intersection #21 Wolfe Road/I-280 Northbound Ramps to operate at
an unacceptable level (change from LOS B to LOS E) during the AM peak hour based on
City of Cupertino LOS standards. (S)
Miti�ation Measure TRANS-1: As part of the project,the project sponsor shall�
construct an additional«estbound lane at intersection#21 Wolfe Road/I-280 Northbound
Ramps to provide for dual left-turn and dual right-tum lanes. With the aclditional lane,the
intersection«ould operate at acceptable LOS B (17.1 seconds) during the AM pealc hour.
Ho��ever,the off-ramp intersection is under Caltrans jurisdiction. Therefore,neither the
project sponsor nor the Cit�-of Cupertino can ensure the implementation of the proposed
mitigation measure; thus the impact is considered significant and unavoidable. (SU)

Re: Camments to the Draft Environmental Impact Report for the Apple 2 Campus
Dear Aarti:
Thank you for the opportunity to review the Draft Environmental Impact Report
(DEIR) for the proposed Apple campus along Homestead Road in Cupertino.
This letter includes all City of Sunnyvale comments to the DEIR
We appreciate the cooperative approach you and the City team have taken with
the project, and look forward to continuing to work with you going forward. The 2
new campus provides many exciting opportunities for the area, and the City of
Sunnyvale generally supports the success of local companies. But the City of
Sunnyvale alsa has an abligatian to its community members to ensure any new
project is mitigated to a degree that the positive way of fife expected is not
d isru pted.
Here are our comments:
A. Proiect Description: �
1. Page 66, Praposed Building Summary- Tab1e III-2 shows Phase 2 building
heights to be 60 feet in height, but the table imbedded in Figure III-4 3
shows building heights af 35 feet. Please clarify.
2. Page 75, Corporate Fitness Center- Please include in the description of
this facility that the parking provided adjacent to that building will be for
fitness center employees and service vehicles only, and not for use by 4
employees of the main building. Also, on Page 99, please add that parking
at the Fitness Center wauld be far fitness center employees and service
vehicles onty.
3. Page 96, Landscaping- The EIR stated a seven foot perimeter fence will
be added approximately 30-50 feet from the public sidewalk, with 5

landscaping between the sidewalk and fence. This 30-50 foot landscaped 5
area could provide safe refuge for peaple intent on mischief. Will security cont.
cameras be added along the fence to ensure that area is safe?
4. Page 102, East Homestead Circulation- The DEIR states that a shuttle
bus pull-out for the Fitness Center is proposed along Hamestead Road. 6
What types of buses are these expected to be, and how often will they run
down Homestead Road?
5. Page 125, Parking- Please clarify that the parking for the Fitness Center is
far fitness center employees and service vehicles only. �
B. Aesthetics:
1. Page 195, Photosimulations- The DEIR includes several photosimulations
from different locations around the property. Vantage point 6 shows the g
view from Peacock Avenue. Another simulation is warranted from the
homes at the point the building comes closest to Homestead Road.
2. Page 212, Light and Glare- Please clarify that light and glare calculations
were done without assuming landscaping will be in a mature state and of
significant grawth. Upon initial occupancy of the main building, only the
large existing trees along the sidewalk on Homestead Road will be in
place, and all landscaping behind that will be new growth. 1� candition of 9
approval for the praject could be added to require newly-planted trees
along the Homestead Road section af the main building at the point it is
closest to the road be large 36-inch box trees to ensure lighting and glare
is controlled.
C. Traffic and Transportation:
Recommended Improvements
1. The project is clearly going to have significant effects on the locaf
transportation system. The EIR concludes that rnany impacts are
unavaidable or rnarginally acceptable, and others are not analyzed in
sufficient detail to identify issues. While the document appears
substantially campliant with VTA and lo�al standards in terms of the scope
of the traffic analysis, the praject and the City of Cupertino need to make a
considerable investment in local transportation infrastructure to offset the 10
impacts of this project fihat are not captured by generalized impact
analysis methodologies such as overall intersection LQS.
Particular areas for consideration of investment are Sunnyvale-Saratoga
Road, De Anza Boulevard, and Homestead Road. Based an recent traffic
counts and abservations, the existing condit�on features long queues for
southbound PM traffic that are not captured by th� TRAFFiX analysis.

Sunnyvale recommends cansideration of the fallowing operational
improvements to address intersection queuing issues that will be
exacerbated by project traffic:
a. Provide adaptive traffic signal control or another operational
improvement in the Homestead Road corridor to address existing
and project condition queuing and delays in peak north-south
directions and Homestead Road side street delays due to poor 10
platooning of vehicles. cont.
b. Fund a study of optimizing traffic signal operations at the De Anza
Baulevard/Homestead Road/Route 280 complex and provide
hardware and software upgrades including adaptive traffic signal
control or other advanced, applicable traffic signal control, so as to
reduce metering/congestion inducing effects of signal operations at
this lacation.
The project intends to rely neavily on alternative transportation use and
transportation demand management, but there are bike facility
deficiencies in the immediate vicinity of the project. There is a
discontinuity in the Class II facility along Wolfe Road at the 1-280
overcrossing and at Wolfe and Homestead immediately adjacent to the
project site. The bike lane gap at Wolfe and Homestead should be
addressed, given its proximity to the project and the assumption that TDM
measures will be required including bicycle support facilities and 11
encouragement of bicycling.
Sunnyvale recommends fixing the alignment of southbound Nomestead
Road and eliminating the bike lane gap by: Either eliminate the short # 3
lane southbound which allows bike lane striping southbound and provides
enough of a shift to address the intersection offset and provide a
northbound bike lane; or by widening on the west side to keep the existing
lane configuration, fix the alignment, and provide space far bikes.
There are also areas of conflict between autamobiles and bicyclists on
Wolfe Road between Homestead Road and Fremont Avenue. The bicycle
lanes in both directions taper away from the curb in certain sections to
allow for pockets of on-street parking. Motor vehicles traveling on 12
Homestead frequently will cut across the bike lanes at these tapers.
These areas are prime areas far the installation of ,�olored bike lanes.
Sunnyvale recommends installation of colored asphalt at these taper
areas as a means to further support bicycling by Apple employees.

2. Page 347, Scope of Study- The traffic study should be done to also I 13
conform to CEQA requirements.
3. Page 349, Figure V.I-1- The intersections of HomesteadiBlue Jay,
Homestead/Heron, Sunnyvale-Saratoga/Cheyenne-Connemara,
Sunnyvale-SaratogatAlberta-Harwick, and �awrence/Benton appear to
meet the 10 trips per approach lane criteria as upstream intersections 14
were included in the analysis. These intersections should be analyzed as
well, ar at least the locations in Sunnyvale as this is S�mnyvale's standard
analysis procedure.
The traffic analysis assumes that there is no Sunnyvale trip distributian
north of Fremont Avenue. Should some assumption have been made to
more broadly distribute trips in the immediate project vicinity rather than 15
relying solely on zip code data? Isn't it likely that employees of the new
project location will live in Sunnyvale closer to the site?
4. Page 351, Footnote- VTA has given guidance that assumptions on the
nurnber of employees should be related to the conditions present at the 16
time of the most recent CMP monitaring. Please confirm with VTA that the
scenario used in the study is consistent with TIA preparation guidance.
5. Page 358, Existing Roadway Network (continued from page 354), De
Anza Boutevard- Please note that the extension of De Anza Boulevard in
Sunnyvale, Sunnyvale-Saratoga Road, has only six lanes, including the 17
intersection of Sunnyvale-Saratoga/De Rnza and Homestead Road. Was
this included in the study, and would it affect LOS calculations?
6. Page 358, Pedestrian Facilities- The lack of pedestrian crossings and the
difficulty of crossing freeway on-ramps may constitute an environmental
impact given that the project is likely to add additional pedestrian traffic. 18
Sunnyvale recorr�mends that improvements that make ramp crossings
friendlier for pedestrians be includecl in the praject or considered as
environmental mitigation.

lanes on Homestead and identify those locations.

11.Page 368, Apple Shuttle Service and Bicycle Access to Rail Statians
(continued from page 367)- The second paragraph states that Class II
lanes along Wolfe Road connect the Lawrence Caltrain Station to Apple 23
Campus 2. However, the Wolfe bikeway is incomplete between Old San
Francisco Road and Fremont Avenue. Please note.
12.Page 376, Cumulative No Project Conditions — It is more appropriate to
use a longer term, model based analysis due to the scale of the project,
and to be able to better understand the praject's relatinnship to long range 24
land use plans and carresponding tra�c grawth.
13.Page 376, Cumulative No Project Approved Projects and Traffic Volumes-
In the final paragraph, a nine year cumulative scenaria is inappropriate as
it daes not correspand to area land use plans. Sunnyvale recommends a 25
cumulative analysis that aligns with General Plan build-out assumptions of
area General Plans.
14.Page 377, Criteria of Significance, the last bullet point on page 377-
Stating that the project does nat conflict with agency plans is inaccurate.
The project conflicts with Sunnyvale's Bike Capital Improvement Program, 26
specifically regarding the bike lanes at Wolfe/Homestead.
15.Page 379, Pedestrian Impact Criteria- The evaluation should take into
account adjacent cities policies and plans, such as the City of Sunnyvale's 27
Pedestrian Safety and Opportunities Study and the Comprehensive
Schaol Traffic Study.
16.Page 380, Bicycle Impact Criteria- The analysis should take inta account
nearby cities policies and plans such as the Sunnyvale Bicycle Capital 28
Improvement Program and the Neighbarhood Guided Bike Routes plan.

The EIR does not fully account for delays to southbound Wolfe traffic, 38
which would be severely impacted by the triple left exit configuration.

af a condition of appraval limiting the number of event participants and/or
number af events per year.
29.Page 434, Evaivation of Potential Neighborhoad Parking Intrusion,
Nightingale Avenue, Meadowlark Lane, Leighton Way- The potential areas
for employee parking may cause jaywalking to reach the proposed
pedestrian gate to the site. Provision of a mid-block crosswalk is not an
alternative as it would cause a safety impact. Consideration of aff-site
parking in Sunnyvale needs to account for and reference Sunnyvale's 41
Residential Preferential Parking Code. Should preferential parking be
instituted per the Code, then the analysis of available off-site parking
becomes an infeasible project camponent and should be identified as
such. The report should be modified accordingly. Also, regarding the
Forge Drive bullet point, this is a private street which is not available for
general parking.
30.Page 439, Table V.I-18: Left-Turn Vehicle Evaluation, Homestead at
Wolfe - The report indicates that parking be removed at Homestead Road
and Wolfe Road. Parking demand should be studied iri the area proposed 42
for parking elimination. Remaval of parking may constitute a patentially
significant impact.
31.Page 444, Monitoring Program- Sunnyvale recommends that TDM
monitoring and compliance shauld be independent of the applicant. The
description of the Monitoring Program and the TDM Monitoring report 43
appear to conflict, with both the applicant and an independent City
approved firm cited as having responsibility for data collection.

F�igure 8 of t��e TIP►assigns f�a af the praject-generated trips to the Lawrence Expressway.We
thin�C that this �alue may have been d�ri�ed in error, potenti�ly due to an assumption that rhe
existing travel patierns wifl be mainEained far employees tra�eling tv the Infini[e Loop Campus 3
or o[her Apple office locatians furfher to the west. We anticipate a higher number of trips will
use Lawrence Expressway to access US Highway IQ1 as an aleernate tv State Route 85 {5R 85}
as a narti�IsQUth conne�tar. We would therefore expect ta sre a carresponding worsening of the
Level of 5ervice [LDS) alang this carridar,

Yel��c�e T'rip Reduction
We suppart the ap�l�cant's propasai to impferr�ent Travel Demand Management (TDM}paiicies
to reduce traffic impac[s to the 5tate Hig�way System and encourage usage of nearhy�uhli�
transit tines.With that in rxund, amang the new or expanded "Project TDM Measures"that are
lzstec!vn.�age 75 and?6 c��the TIA are d nurnher af ineffectiv�measures.Fnr example;
+ Electric �ehicie charging spaces wi[1 nai, in and of itself, limit th�number of vehicular trips
to and from [he site.
• Tt�e expanded biice-sharing pragrain appears to faGilitate tra�el withu� the prnject�ite and

• The measur�titled"Carnpus walkinglcycling cammutes" dQes nai lis[any service,

The sectiQn immediately following the"Proje�t TDM Measures" lists additiorsal rneas�res thai
may be implemente� if the single-ocrupancy �ehicle mode sh�tr� target is not met. The additianal
c�r a�Eernate measu�es appear ta ha�e a hi�her li[ceaih�aod ot reducing the number of single

We reconamend that the City refer to"Reforming Parking Palicies t❑ 5uppart 5mart GrQwth,"an
Iv�T� study funded by Cal[rans for sample parking ratias and strategies that suppart smart growth
and Transit Oriented De�elopmeni" (T�D). Alth�augh [he praje�t already prn�oses a reductian in

T7�e proposed mitiga[ian t�widen the S� I-28QIWoife Road off-rarrap to two-lanes does not fulZy
mitigate ttus de�elo�m�nt's impacts as queuing from this off-ramp intersection is still�xpect�d

SUBJECT:Apple Campus 2�EIR �City af 5an Jase File DA13-005}
The Gity of 5an Jose appreciates the opportunity to review and pro�ide comments on the
propased project. Please consider the Fallowing in relation to the project review in�luding 1
CEDA analysis:
Transpartation and Circulation
�he project dEl�i identifies four significant una�oidable impa�ts at GMP interse�tions
{Wolfell-284, StevenslCalvert,5te�ens CreeklLawren�e, Lawrencell-28�}for ba�kground
plus praject and�umulative conditions. In addition,the DEIR identifies a significant
unavoidable curnulative impact at ne AnzalSEevens Creek.These five unmitigated
impacts will result in non-�onformance to the CMP standa�d and will require pre�aration
❑f a Oeficiency Plan according to the CMP statue and guidelines priar to approval af the 2
praposed project. Both 5an Jose and Sunnyvale have prepared�eficien�y Plans
according ta CMP statue for non-cor�forman�e in their jurisdictions that include impact fee
pravisions.As a member agency of the�MP project,the City of Cupertino should
prepare a regional deficiency Plan in coordination with adjacent member agen�ies.The
Qeficiency Plan should address how projects within the City of Cupertino will pariicipate
in regional transportation improvements on a fair-share basis.
The project proposes to significantly reduce traffic impacts through an"aggressi�e"
transpQrtation demand management plan ta 34°/,reductian in peak hour vehicle trips}af
which 5an Jose is�ery supportive.San Jose has an adopted goal of reducing vehicks
miles tra�elled by 40°Io in our Envision 5an Jose 2040 General Plan. ❑ue to the multi-
jurisdictianal nature of the I-28a1S1evens Creek corridor, review and approval of the T[�M
pragram for the Apple II Campus should invaE�e adjacen#jurisdictians, including the City
of 5an Jose. Preferably, the TpM should be included in the Qeficiency Plan monitored
and enforced by the CMP.Compliance with the TQM plan shouid also be subject ta 3
annual monitoring by Valley Transportation Authority{VTAy and subject ta an
appropriately set financial penalty fQr non-complian�e with any fine revenues applied to
reglonal transpartatian impro�ements.The T�M plan includes a nstwork of employee
shuttles.The shuttle plan should be coordinated wi#h the VTA and with neighbaring
jurisdictions and include shuttle stops at populatian centers{e.g., ❑awntawn, North San
Jose, Evergreen and Almaden Valley}and at regianal transit hubs liite the Diridon 5tation
and the Berryessa�ART station{opening in��17},
The proposed penaity of$5ltriplday for not achieving T�M goals is too law to be effective
in enforcing the TDM goals in re€ationship to the size of the project (e.g., if the project
exceeds ihe target by 2aa trips,the proposeci penaity amount af$ta�0ldaily will not 4
function as an eifective measure ta enfarce TQM targets for an aifice of the profe�t size}.
The project should be conditioned to have a penalty of$15fllday or higher to effe�tively

irnprovements identified in the regional �eficiency Plan or Corridor Management Plan.
The proposed mitigation of adding an exclusi�e eastbound right-turn lane at Stevens
CreeklCalvert will reduce the sidewalk width to 5 feet,which is does not mee[City af San
Jose standards{City of San Jose's Leve[at 5ervice Policy, Council Policy 5-3}and could 5
create a secondary impacts to pedestrians.The design of the proposed mitigaEion should
maintain a minimum sidewalk width af at least 1 Q feet.
Bioiogical Resources: Bay Checkerspot Butterfly 1 Nitrogen �eposition
The City of 5an Jase has recently adopted the 5anta Clara Valley Habitat PIanlNatural
Communities Canservation Plan (SCVHP}de�eloped in partnership with the Coun#y of
5anta Clara, the City of Morgan Hill, the City of Gilroy, the Valley Transportation Agency
and the Santa Clara Valley Water�istrict.The SCVHP establishes a framework for
deve3opment praje�ts[o�omply with several state and federal regulatary processes and
standardized avoidance, minimization,mitigation and compensation requirements set
forth ir�federal and state laws, including the California Enviranmental Quality Act
�CEQA}.CEQA requires that any�ublic agency approving or carrying aut a project for
which there is subsfantial e�idence of a potentially signifi�ant impact must identify
rr�easures necessary to mitigate im�acts ta a less-than-signiticant le�el {Pub. Res. Cade
§21Q8�),
The SCVHP establishes standardized,equitable,feasible and enforceabfe measures by
which participating jurisdi�tions�an mitigate impac#s upon spe�ies covered by the
SGVHP to a less-than-significant le�el.The impact and mitigation analyses in the SCVFiP
are based on extensi�e analysis and the best avaiiable science and have resulted in the
identificatian and design flf feasible rr�itigation that may not ha�e been identified in prior
environmental documents.The S�VHP establishes standards for mitigation of impacts to
se�eral species that depend on serpeniine soils,such as the Bay Checkerspot butterfly.
Potentially significant impacts to such species include indirect,cumulative,and hlghly
dispersed impa�ts such as nitrogen deposition. In the past, the effects Qf nitrogen
deposition on specia[-status plants and wildl€fe have been underestimated ar were not
ur�derstoad;hawever,Fhis is no langer true,and nitrogen impacts are arliculated in detai[ 6
in the SCVHP.
Nitrogen depasition is known ta have de3eterious effects on many of the serpentine plants
in the SCVHP area,as well as the host plants that support the Bay Checkerspot Butterfly.
Nonpoint sources such as automabiles emit nitrogen compounds into the air. 6ecause
serpentine soils tend to be nutrient poor, and nitrogen deposition artificially fertilizes
serpentine soils, nitragen deposition facilitates the spread of invasive plant spe�ies. Non-
nati�e annua!grasses grow rapidly,enabling them to out-�ompete serpentine spe�ies.
The displacement of these spe�ies, and subsequent de�line of the several federally-listed
species, including the�utterfly and its larval host plants, has been documented on
Coyote Ridge in central 5anta Clara Caunty{the last remaining papulation of butterflies}.
Nitrogen tends to be efficiently recycled by the plants and micro�es in infertile soils such
as#hose deri�ed from serpentines, so thaE{ertilizatian impacts could persist for years and
result in cumulative hat7itat degradation.The in�asion of native grasslands by in�asive
andlor non-native spe�ies is naw recognized as ane af the majar�auses of the decline of
the Bay Checkerspot Butterfly.
Afi majar remaining papulatians af the�utterfly and many af the sensitive serpentine
plant papulations occur in areas subject to air polluFian from vehicle exhaust and other
sour�es throughout the Bay Area in�luding frflm within your jurisdiction.Therefore,even
relatively small amounts of increased ni#rogen deposition resuftir�g from new
deve�opment�ould�ontribute to a cumulatively significant impact by diminishing the
population sizes af serpentine species and possibly the chances of survi�al of the
threatened butter#ly and the serpentine-specific plant species within 5anta Glara Gounty.
Because GEQA requires implementation of all feasib�e mitigation measures, e�en#or

Re: Comments on the Apple Campus 2 Project�raft En�ironmental Impact Report
Dear Ms. Gosh�
Thank you far including the Ci#y of 5anta Clara�Ciry}in the re�iew of the Draft
Environmen#al Impact Report{DE1�2}for the Apple Campus 2 Proje�#.We appreciate you
responding to tY�e comments the City had provided during the�EIR Scoping Session for 1
the abo�e Project. Further we appre�iate the oppvrtunity to meet with Cupertino Staff and
the consultant on two occasions ta dis�uss the DEIR. Regarding the ❑EIR,we have the
fAllowing�amments:
The City would like thank the Project applicant for the commitmsnt of pro�iding fi�e
years af annual traffic monitoring following the occupancy of the projecf for a f�e year 2
period,as well as$�SO,O�fl to the Cify of Santa Clara for mitigating any future parking
intrusion or neighborhaod�ut-through traffi�in the Westwood Oaks neighborhaod;
While the Project will cantribute$536,000 towards two planned transportation prajects
identified in VTA's Valley Transportation Plan 2�35, that would improve tra�c operations on
(wo parallel facili#ies 1)SR 85 Express Lane Project, and 2}Bus Rapid Transit 5tatian 3
{BRT7 on Stevens Creek 6oule�ard at Wolfe Road and �e Anza Boule�ard, at this time the
City of 5anta Clara has not cammitted to the implementation of BRT on our�or#ian of
Stevens Creek Baulevard;
The City would like to thank the Project applir.ant for cammitting to fully mitigate all
impacts found in the QEIR analysis. However, sin�e some mitigation measures identified in
the �EIR also contain 5tafemenfs of�verriding Considerations. 5anta Clara is reguesting
assurance that the mitigation measures identified will be implemented and the impacts will 4
be made to be less than significant.This may�e achie�ed through adaption of a Mifigation
Monitaring and Reporting Program, inclusion of the mitiga#iars measures in the P�oject's
Conditions o�Approval,or a financial commitment to constru�tian of the imp�avements;
The ❑Ef R language should be amended ta clearly identify di�erted tr�ps due to the
closure of Pruneridge Avenue west af Tantau Way. Those trips shauld he accounted for in
the Traf#ic Impact Analysis[TIA]showing how traff�c that currently uses westbouncf 5
Pruneridge ta access Interstate 280 at Woife Road will he diverted and the same for the
reverse. The TIA should also show how traffi�sntering and leaving the residential
neighborhood in 5anta Clara adjacent to the Projec#site will circulate; and

Dear Ms. Shri�asta�a:
1'he 5anta Ctara Valley Transportation Authority(VTA}has re�iewed the Drat�En�ironmental
Impact Repoi�t(DEIR}and Transpartation Impa�t Analysis [TiAj for the App�e C'ampus 2
Project. We ha�e a number Qf comments tin these documents,which are included below.
HQwe�er, 1 would like to hi�hli�ht here se�era] key themes from our review.
t�irst,we wnuld like tv commen�the City and th�prnject spansor for mair►tair�ing apen lines of
communicatian with V1'A ihroughnut this process,with the result that many of VTA's cvncerns
regarding the closure of I'runeridge A�cr�ue,th�rerouting of't��ansit serv�ce and impacfs to bus
stops,the treatment of the bicycle and pedestrian network surroundin�the site,and the approach
ta impacts ta regional facilities,were already addressec�by the time the DEIR and TIA were
released. 1
Se�-ond,we would]ike to commend the City and the proje�#s�ansor for tharoughly analy�ing of COnt.
a11 modes af transportatian in the DE[R and T1A and including meaningf'uI mitigation measures
ta impro�e pedestrian,bicycle and transit conditions surrounding the site. in addition,the project
builds on Apple's already extensi�e Transpartation Demand Managemcnt[TDM}Prvgram with
a conimitment to achie�ing a 34%nan-Single accupant Vellic�e (50V}mode share, including a
monitoring program with enfprcement.This le�el of�nmmitment to impio�ing conditior�s for
alternati�e modes of transpartation and reducing automobile trips is consistent with the gaals af
the Santa Clara Cnunty Congestinr�Management Program(�MP]managed by VTA.
Based an our re�iew of the DFIR and TTA, we ha�e the tnllowin�comments on ti�e

VTA laoks forward to exe�utin�an agreement betwcen the City of Cupertino,Apple,and VTA
address�ng this issue.
Secandary Imp_acts to Bicvcle, Pedestrian and Transit Modes
7'he'I'IA identifies signi�cant impacts to eight inierscctians in the Qackgrounci P�us Project
s�enaria,and in these instances,additianaf tuzn danes are proposed as physrca�miti�atian
measures for the impacts. The"]'IA also notes that"ln some�ases,mitigating a motor�ehicle
traffic impact at a study interseciivj�would resukt in secondary impacts to othcr modes of tra�el
(such as a street widening that woisld result in ]nnge�pedestrian distances)"(pg. iv).VTA notes 3
that iz�tersectinn widening can also potentially degrade transit access since the quality af the
pcdestrian environment is a key compnr�ent of'trai�sit access. in the TIA and DEIR, cansiderable
attention is paid ta conditions ior bicycles and pedestrians araund the project fr�ntage. Howe�er,
the TIA and DEIR da not expIicitIy inciude ana�ysis of secoi�dary iriipacts ta non-auto moaes for
the aff-site intecsectipns that are propos�d far modifioatians.
VTA notes ihat ther� are altcrnati�es ta widenin�intersections when automobile traff c
increases. For example,the City of San Jose has a"Prote�ted �ntersection" policy allowing
�ertain intersections to execed ihe cstablished i.e�el of Ser�ice tLOS)threshnld when they are
near suhstantial transit impro�ements andlor adjacent pri�ate developmeni,or havc reached their
p[anned maximum capacity. �vr�'NiP Intersectians, the Mini I]�fciency Plar��rocess is 4
desi�;ncd to allaw lacal agenczes tQ identify nffsetting measures, such as rnultimQdai
impra�ements, in cases wher�it is faund infeasible to add capacity to an intersecti�n that falls
below the established CMP LDS threshold of E. We encaurage th�City af Cupertino tQ consider
ihese or ather altecnati�e appr�aches ta addressing intersection impa�is in lieu af adding ianes ta
the intersections.
In cases where i�e�ity pursues w�iden�n�inrerse�t�ons as mitigation �'ar a�tQ L�S impacts, V7'�1
wauld like tn see#hc City play clnse attcntion to potential measures to preser�e pedesirian,
bicycle and iransit conditions, There are a nusa7ber of sianple,low-�nst measures that cauld be
implemented,such as redu�ing auto lane widths, utilizing shaulder right-of-way,and tight�ning 5
curb radii where feasible;pro�iding safety features such as high-�isibility crosswa[ks,pedeslrian
refuges,signagc,andlor bicycle pa�ement ma��kings;and others. V'TA w�ould be happy to
pro�ide assistance to the City and thc project sponsor in this area as the project progresses.

issue a correction in the f�EIR.
Freew�Se�ment Analysis and Impacts
The TIA indicates that thc praje�.t wnufd result in si�ni�cant impacts to nine mixed-tYow
segments of I-28�,one HOV segment oi'I-280,and one mix�d-t�ow segment vf 5R$5. As a
mitigalinr�rneasure,the City 11as proposed that the praject sponsor shall pay a$536,000 fair
share coniril�utiQn towards the SR$5 Express Lancs project and the Bus Rapid Transit{BRT}
statiQn on Ste�ens Creek Saule�ard ai Wolfe Rnad and ❑e Il��za E3ou�evard. The TIA and DEII� �
note that these projects are included in VTP 2035 and"impro�=e t��affic operations vf the
irr�pacted freeway sc�ments and pra�ide added transportation capacity on parailel facilities."
VTA agrees that a contribution ta these projects�anstitutes an appropriate mitigativn measure
for the freeway impacts for the reasons cited in the TIA and DEIR.
VTA recommends including analysis of t�e frceway segments on I-280 south of Winchester
Boule�ard to determine if project trips exceed one percent of the freeway capacity in the AM ar�d
PM peak periods fQr both the northhound and snuthbaund directiQns. In addition,the TIA g
should include an assessm�ni of at�er freeway segments to determine w}�ether additianal
freeway se�ments meet the one percent threshold. Z'his recomn�endation is based on Sec•tinn
2.2.2 Free��ay Segments ot the VTA CMP TIA C�uidelirzes.
�reeway Ramp I�npro�ements
The TIR identities impro�ements ta the I-�8fllWolfe Road off ramps. VTA appreciates the Ci#y 9
#aking the lead in�oordinating t�is widening proje�t with VTA and�altrans. VTA recommends
that the impra�erncnts remain within the existing Caltrans Ri�ht-Of=Way if possible.
ueuin Anal �sis at Freewa �n-Ram LocatiQns
VTA on the behali'of 15 5anta Clara Caunty lacal agencies has a Memorandum of
Understanding(MDU}with Caltrans on haw ramp meters arc rnaintained and operated in Santa
Clara Cou3ity. This MOC1 has specific lan�uage that requires queues from ramp metering
operations shall not impede the flow�of traffic on Io�al arterials. D«e to this MOU language, 10
VTA requests that the City conduct an analysis of the ramp metering queues at the I-28DIWojfe
Road and I-2$41Lawrence�.xpressway int�rcHanges to clearly demonstrate that ihe queues will
not impact local streec operations. If these queues do irr�pede the flow of txaffic on the lvcal
arterial, it may be necessary to pro��ide mitigations such as pra�iding additional storage lanes ar
H�V bypass lanes on these ianpacted ramps,where these are feasible.

Subject Apple Campus 2 Draft EIR comments
Comment Ta Whom It May Cancem:
Si[icvn Val€ey Bicycle Caalition [SVBC)is a nonproft arganizat�an with the mission of
pramoting�icyc}ing in Santa C�ara and 5an Matea Caunties.
Well o�er a year ago, Apple kindly in�ited SVBC to work with them in their planning process
for their new research and de�elopment campus in Cupertino. During this process,we have
collaborated with Apple,Alta Pianning & Design,and other stakehoEders to provide input on
how to make the development bike and pedestrian friendly—both for those working at
App1e and for thase traveling through the area.This collaboration was particularly important
to us due ta the per�ei�ed inconvenience af�losing Pruneridge A�enue to bi�yGle and
pedestrian traffic{although in fact bi�yGle traffic�olume r,ounts turned aut to be fairly!ow an
Pruneridge].
1
We�eld a series af ineetings with Apple and Alta Pianning&Qesign at�arious points
during their pfanning process to giue feedback on their plans.We advertised one of these
meetings to our rrsembership to encourage greater engagement fram the bicycling
community.
As a whole,w� believe that Apple has done an�x�mplary job of incorpflrating aur
suggestions to make this part of Cupertino more�iice-friendly. In this letter,we will first
mention the many improvements that App1e has committed to make both on-campus and
off, and then we will identi4y a few areas for improvernent where we feei that the City has an
opportunity.
Bicycle Access Improvemenfs
The following is an o�erview of the recommended bicycle facilitEes on streets adjacent to
the�ampus proposed by Apple that ws strongly support the irr�plementation of. We
understand that Apple plans to invest$10M in hike and pedestrian impravemen#s on puhlic
s#reets around the campus and near6y, for whi�h we applaud t�e company.
Bike Lanes
Bike lanes are defined as a portion of the roadway that has heen designated hy striping,
signage, and pa�ement markings for the preferentiaf or exclusive use of bicyclists. Sike
lanes are recommended on North Wolfe Road, Pruneridge Avenue,and Homestead Road.
This section af the corridar includes conventianal�ike lanes where there is not enaugh 2
right-of-way ta include enhanced treatm�nts such as buffered bikeways.
8uffered Bike Lanes
A buffered bike lane, a€sa called an enhanced bike lane, is a bike lane that is buffered by a
striped "shy aone"hetween the bike fane and the moving vehi�le lane. With the shy zone,
the buffered lane affers a more camfortahle riding environment for bicyclists who prefer nat
ta ride adjacent to traffic.7his design has a number of Uenefits in�luding:
• Provides greater shy distance between rars and bicyciists, allowing for more�omfor#for
people on hikes.
• Provides space for bicycEists to pass each other.
• Provides greater space far the bicycl�tra�el lane withouf making the lane ap�ear so wide
Lett
81
cont.
that it may be misiaken for car use.
•Appeals to no#jusf experienced bicyclists, but people who bicycle on occasion and those
�ew to bicycling.
Buffered pike lanes are recommended an Narth Tantau A�enue and Vallca Parkway.
The recommended buffered�ike lane design is the sarne design as a recently implemented
Caltrans buf#ered bikeway on 51oa#Boule�ard in 5an Francisco and is a rrzodified �ersion af
the design guidance presen#ed in the NACTD(NatiQnal Association af City Transparta#ian
Officials} Urban Sikeway Qesign Guide.
Bike 8oxes
A hike hox is generally a right angle extension to a bi�Ce lane at the head of a signalized
intersection.The bike box allows bicyclists to get to the front af the traffic queue on a red
light and proceed first when that signal turns green.The bike �ox can also act as a storage
area if heavy bi�ycle traffiG exists.The bike box�an also facilitate left turning movements
for hicy�lists who use the'twa stage turn.'Motor vehicles must stop behind the white stop
line at the rear Qf the bike box. 6ike boxes should be located at signalized in#ersections
only. Bike boxes can be com�ined with intersectian crossing markings(see belaw}for
green light situations to remind�ehi�les to be aware of bicyclists.
This treatment is not a Caltrans approved tra�c control device, howeaer the City can apply
ta Caltrans for appro�al ta experiment—SVBC's Executive Director sits on tfi�e Caltrans
statewide Bicycle Advisory Committee{CBACJ as well as the Caltra�s�istrict 4 6icycie
Advisary Cflmmittee{a4BAC}and we would be delighted to assist the City in se�uring
Cupertino the approval to experiment with this treatrnent.
Bike boxes are recQmmended at: 2
-Northbound N Walfe Ave at Pruneridge Ave. Cont.
•Westbound Hamestead Rd at N Tan#au Ave.
•Westbound Pruneridge Ave at N Tantau Ave.
Twp—Stage Turn Baxes
Twa-s#age turn hoxes assist bicyclists with making left turns at multE-lane intersections. This
treatment is typically ap�lied on multi-[ane streets with f�igh traffi�speeds andlor�alumes. It
pro�ides a numher of benefits including-
•Impro�es bi�yclist comfort.
•Provides formal waiting area for bicyclists making left turns outside of fhe crosswalk.
The two-stage turn box is recommended on N. Wolte A�e at Pruneridge A�e.
€ntersection Crossing Markings
intersectian crossing markings are an extension of the bicycle lane thraugh an interse�tion.
7his bike lane extensian has a number of benefits, in�luding:
•Enables bicyclis#s ta �orrectly position thems�l��s fa the lefl of right turn lanes or to the
right of left turn lanes.
•Reduces conflict between turning rnotorists and bicycle through trafFic.
•Provides bicyclists with guidance ta follow the preferred traveG path.
-A4erts r�otarists to expect and yield ta merging�i�y�le traffic.
Intersection crossing markings are recommended at:
-Northhound N Wolfe Ave at Pruneridge Ave.
-Northhound N Walfe Ave at Campus Entrance.
•Westhound Homestead Rd at N�antau Ave.
-Westbound Pruneridge Ave at N 7antau Ave.
Green Bike l,anes Through Conflict Areas
Green bike lanes through cont3ict areas is the appli�ation of green colaring applied to
pavement in�anflict zanes.
Benefits af this treatment lnclude:
-Alerts roadway users to expect bi�yclists.
Lett
81
cont.
•Assigns the right of way to bicyclists.
•The FHWA[Federal Highway Administration}has provided blanket approval for green
�olored pavement and Caltrans has aEso appro�ed this trea#ment.
Green bike lanes through �anflict areas are recommended at:
•N Wolfe Ave at all 28� ramps.
•Norfhbound N Tantau A�e at parking fat entrances and approach to dedicated right turn
lane at Hamestead Rd.
•N Tantau A�e at the Transit Center enfrancelexit, loading area and parking !ot enfrances.
Gampus Bi�ycle Impravements 2
Apple already leads a very successful bike share�ragram in Cupertino and wil]expanding
the program with Apple Campus 2. They ha�e committed to a comprehensi�e,integrated, C011t.
and muftimada! Transportation pemand Management Program,of which biking is an
integral part. Apple currently implements an aggressi�e TOM program with 28°/o employee
parti�ipation.Apple has committed to increase the 7[]M program to 3�°Io as part of Apple
Campus 2.
En addition to�reating linkages and connections to the public bike network,Apple has
incorporated on-�ampus�iking as a key feature af the plans. In addition to mare than 1,��0
bikes on campus far empEayees, this also inGludes canvenient bike a�cess points to the
campus along with accessibie bi{ce parking and storage, lockers and shower fa�ilities,and
integrated on campus bike paf� network and other bike friendly amersities.
�pportunities for Additional Improvements
The Tantau 28�o�ercrossir�g
Bicyclists struggle to find�omfortable and con�enient highway crossings throughout our
region.The improvements planned for Wolfe Road wifl be helpful, �ut will stili not provide
the aptimum in bicyclist and pedestrian comfort�ecause of the on and aff ramps and the
number of confli�t points a bicy�[ist has to navigate.This is an exisffng condition that will be
impro�ed by Apple.
Due to the lack af conflict areas,Tantau aver Highway�8p prov€des an excellent alternative
tha#�an he made�omfortabie for�ike riders af all ages and sKill levels. �n North Tantau, 3
the�urrent plans have one through vehicle lane and a nice�uffered bike lane in either
direction. Traveling svuth across 28D, howe�er,the riding expe�fence becomes more
limited, as the buffer to the bike Eane disappears and a ser.ond vehicle through lane is
added.
We do not think that the expected motor vehicie traffic volumes justify this confguration. On
the most recent set af bicycEe plans submitted by Appfe,we wauld like to see Cross Section
F on page 6 altered ta IQOk more like Cross 5ection E on page 5.
Vallr.o Parkway
We alsa be�ie�e some improvements caR be made to Vallco Parkway. First,we woufd
strongiy ad�ise the use of reverse angle parking—this treatment is n�w considered besf
practice for promating the safety af people on bikes, as bicyclists are much more�isible to
motoris#s attempting to pull ❑ut af their parking spot.
Second,the 5-foot, non-hufFered bike lane is not up ta the same le�el as most of the 4
suggested infrastru�ture in the plan, and,given the diagonal parking and two traffic lanes In
either directio�,we would prefer to see a minimum 6 foot bike iane, patentiaEly with a buffer.
With 12 and 12.5-fnot lanes,we helieve that there is ample road space ta give cyclists more
room. If the lanes have been specifed to he this wide�ecause of frequent hus traffic, that's
an e�en better reason ta gi�e bicyclists more room ta maneu�er when caught between
buses and mQtarists trying to exit their diagonal parking spot. It appears feasible to remove
one or two feet fram the inner through lanes to pro�ide this extra width to fhe bike lanes.
in conclusion, we feel ihat Apple has done an excellentjob in incorporafing our thoughts I 5

KMVT Inter�iew with Cupertino Mayor Drrin Mahaney regarding Apple Campus 2
Praject En�iranmental Impact Repart
Inter�iewer: Will the En�ironmental Impact Report on traffic affect apple projeets? I
read in the newspaper this week fl�at the proposed new head�uarters will generate
significant una�aidable impa�t5 inrluding exressi��e rongestipn alc�ng Interstate 28�and
�mac�eptable traffic problems. ❑oes unaccepta�le mean that they �an't ha�e an Apple
campus or will you accept it?
Mahuney: The first thing I'm gaing to say is that 1 can't cnmment o��the En�iroiiinental
Impact Report except for what I'm going to s1y �vhich is its big. Secause we're in the
�ammei�t period and anytF7ii�g I say wotild ��a�e to be read intc7 the reCOrd it's an afficial
tlling. The En�ironmental Impact Report c�id �ome ou#-it's about 6b0 pages. I ha�e nQt
read it yet and I'�e got about 45 days to read it like e�erybody else. I took it took it to a
]unch groLip that I had the otlier�iay just to show tl�em this fl�ing and a guy said there's
a CD in the back and I said oh that must be it-an electronic�ersion ❑f this-and no it's
#he technical appendices which is another 3,Q�0 pages so this is 4,OQ�pages.
Inter►�iewer: And yau're going tQ read e�ery word, right? 1
Mahoney: 1 will read a lot of it and we'l] get it all presented to us and t��e P1a�lning
Commission will read it as well and ❑ur stafF. Dur staff has been working on this for
se�eral years e�er since 5te�e announced it.
Inter�iewer: When I first heard oE En��ironmental Impact Reports, I thaught in my
minc� it was about whether waod ducks would be displaced or whether mare rain
wo�ald happen like the en�ironment,but what kinds of things do they laok at?
Mahoney: They do la�k at e�erything. I mean, literally will there be dust that's�reated
when they tear down the olc� bt�ildings and bui�d it- trafFic is certainly ane of the things
they laak at. The praject itself lzas a number nf- weli a lot af trees tl�at are there that are
gaing ta be taken out and will be repla�ed with three times as many trees and it will be
a much greener project a�erall,but e�erything in there gets shidiec�. I'll just talk about
en�ironmental impact reports in general. You Iaak at all the En�ironmental impacts
and then you see which impacts can be mitigated, in ❑ther wor�is, how can you da
something ta mitigate t�at and there are some that may end up being where yau can't
mitigate them and then you can ha�e a statement of a�erriding ron�em that says in
spite of this it's o�erall a good thing. It may ha�e some really positi�e en�ironmental
impacts in a praject just fram a pure enWironmental point of�iew, forget about an
Lett
814
cont.
economic point of�iew, Erom a pure en�ironmentaI point oE�iew a project mig�t IZa�e
s❑ many benefits that it might o�erride some specific unmitigatable thing. Th�t's how it
works.
Inter�iewer: Is tlle new Apple UFD campus going to��appen ar is it just real soon now?
Sa h�w long,ball park figure, will it be when ran they start knocking down old
buildings and putting up new Qnes?
Mahoney: �n ❑ur agencia now, I jt�st heard this today, �ct 1 we will ha�e a joint
meeting between the Planning Commission and City Council to re�iew the
En�ir�riinental Impact IZe}�orf ai�d all the comments. Tfleii it'll go through the Planning
Cammission and t�en throtigll City Council. T�e earliest we �ould make a decisian
wntild be late Nn�ember or De�ember of this year. It stretched c�ut a little bit from
Apple's original plan as they went and did same tuning an the pr�je�t itself, but they're
ob�iausly eager ta see it happen and we'lI see what h�ppens in the process.

Interviewer: Very famnus�ideo was the one oF Ste�e Jobs �ozniiiK tn�n�m�il and Cont.
presenting the idea af the new campus. When I wat�hed it, the impressian I got was he
was coming to the council and saying nice city you Fza�e here it`d be a real shame if
Apple didn't build a �am�us in it. Is t��at the feeling you guys �;ot?
Mahoney: It's really interesting. I taok a cat�ple of things otit oF that and since then—I
got interviewed after t��at meetiiz�nn a �c�uple of thitigs ai�d pec�ple asked how I
tllought he looked and I thought he looked frail I think was the term I used and since
then if you read ��is biagraphy that was his last public appearanre and he was really,
really ill. A couple oF things that are interesting-in the day when people can wQrk
fram anywhere and they don't have to be all together—it's amazing tHat company's still
think it's important for people to be together. Apple thinks it's important, Farebaok
thinks it's important-they're all building these big ilew campuses. And for App1e to
c�o it in Cupertin❑ where it's an expensi�e place, the land they bought was expensi�e
and whate�er says First of all something ab�ut the peaple they want to attract and retain
like to li�e there and like to be there and a�sa I think it is the fact that they started here I
#hink there's a persanal cannectian.

Re�Comments tsn Apple Campus� Proje�t
Dear Mr. Kitson,
The Sierra Cluk�Loma Prieta Chapter has been re�iewing the Apple Campus 2�roject since Zai2 and understands that
this proposal is a signifi�ant ane forthe region.The new�ampus will redesign se�eral existing roadways within the
City of Cupertino,generate more trips,and act as a new model f�r technolagy campuses e�erywhere.Far these
reasons and more,we have prepared this comment letter for the City of Cupertino to re�iew and respflnd to.
The 5ierra Club Loma Prieta Chapter has de�eloped guidelines for e�aluating projects�ike the Apple Campus 2 Proje�t
whiGh focus Qn five key issues; 2
1. Compact bevelnpment to use�aluabEe land mQre efficiently at a ma}ar transit hu6
2. Community and Econ�mic Sene�ts ta ass�re a vibrant nelghborhaad with a sense of identity
3_ Pedestrian Priprity as the primary mqde of transpartation within the campus
4. 7ranspnrtatinn Alternati�es to pro�ide realistie options for peopEe and deerease autamvbiae usage
5. Energy�Resour�e E�[iEn[y targets far buiEdings and streets tv meet high sustainability goals
Apple Campus�is using an exemplary�ammunity nutrea�h process and we applaud the responsi�eness Qf the
prnjecf proponents.Additinnaliy,there are many features of the Apple Campus 2 propvsal that we are�ery
supporti�e of including:
1. The pedestrian,hicyclist,and transit user benefits ineluding bi�ycle and transit a��ess imprvvements,
shuttles for employees,daycare facility, bi�ycle share,car share,and other traffic demand management 3
program features.
2. The 2,500 new trees planted an cam�us-This is impartant because trees are knawn ta have many benefits
ta a community in�iuding filtering the air and sail,reduce the"heat isiand e�ffect," muffle loud noises,and
prv�ide fovd.'We further appreciate Apple's plan tv inciude fruit trees on site which will be used in the
cafeteria.
15a�atree,http:��www.sa�atrae.com�whYtrees.html.

3. Renewable Energy-By investtng in on�af the largest snfar powered campuses in the world,Apple is a
farerunner in"green"technolagies that we hope wili be replieated.�urthermore,6y ensuring energy
produ[tipn and stqrage remains an site,the transp�rtation and linkage ta an affsite sourte redu�es t�e
amount of construetion ne�essary,thus reducing the amount of greenhouse gases emitted. 3
4. Nitragen Deposition Fee-We are so ha�py that Apple has ele�ted ta pay the iVitrvgen�epasitian Fee{page C011t.
257 of the DEIR}. We request that Apple identifies che fee as mitigation for a eumulati�efy significant
en�ironmental impa�t.We also request that the fee he paid to 5a�ta CEara Valley Nabitat Agency.7he Agen�y
st�,dies nitragen deposition as a cumulati�ely significant envirvnmental impaGt vn endangered species,whi�h
the 5ierra Club Loma Prieta Chapter supports.
We ha�e divided this letter intp issues A}]ple tan address and issues Cupertinp[an address.Transportatian
aCCOUnts far�pprDxim2tely 5Q°�af greenh❑use gas emissivns in the Bay Area and reducing transportati�n clemand is
the most signifitant appartunity fvr our�Ities ta meet Califvrnia's Glimate thange gaals,speGifically A832 and S637S, 4
TF�erefare,our primary recommendations facus on reduc�ng the transportation impacts of the prajert.
We affer the fQllnwing recommendations for Apple's�onsideration:
1. lncrease mode-share split t8rget to 45%-The 5ierra Cluk�Loma Prieta Chapter recognixes Apple's stated
rnode-share split Yarget af 35°/u whir.h is a solid goaf but wi�l likely be exeeeded within the first year,and
therefore is an underwhelming goal to stri�e far.As 5iiicon Valley leader,it is surprising that Apple is nvt
stri�ing tfl meet ar exceed camparable sites like Fa�ebook in Menlo Park�originaily stated 4Q°/a but has seer� 5
increases due t�measures)and 5tanford{S3°Io krut has als�seen increasesJ.Rather than easily exceeding a
low target,we encourage Apple to do what Apple does hest and push the fimit and set a high mode-share
split target to work toward. By asserting a mode-share split a6 45°/0 or e�en higher,Apple will stand out as an
aggressively"green"�ompany serving as a rale model far ather companies and organizations.
Z. Adopt a"TQM First"5trategy-Existing traffic demand management strategies,in general,cqnsiders TQM as
a secandary mitigatian measure after vehicle capacity enhancements have heen exhausted.�evelapment af
a"T�M iirst"strategy wauld re�erse this pra�tice by requir�ng applieation Qf TaM actions and performance
measures hefare�onsidering�apa�ity enhan�ements including additivnal parking anc!lane expansian.
Furthermore,this apprnach would minimixe the a�erall tast uf che projert suhstantiaily,an obuious
bene�t to Apple.
TdM measures to be implemented before expanding raad capa�ity can include,hut is not be limlted to:
_, Transit tommuter benefits though a pre-tax payrnll deduttion. 6
c Free transit pass�s through VTA and Caltrain.
-• Charge far parking�n site especially an nan-rainy days where there shvuld be very little excuse tq
drive.The maney generated can be used for free transit passes for employees.
�� Real time parking�ash aut system.If the�ammuters are affered subsidixed parking,ofFer a cash-
equi�alent for those wha vpt to use alternati�e tra�ei mades.z
- Bicyde�pedestrian imprnvements from neighl�orhoads with ciusters nf Apple empinyee ckusters

in the e�ening.
�? anly expand parking spate and autompbile tapa[ity An[e all TDM measures ha►►e been exhausted.
The numher of parking spa�es is set to increase on Apple Campus Z frvm an existing 9,200 to clase to
11,p0a{page 433 of dEIR}.This will entaurage employees tv drive to wark when App1e shauld first
en[vurage emplvyees ta use cammute alternatives. Having free,plentiful autpmok�ile parking dpes
the exact opposite.
3. Relocate existing"protected"trees on Campus 2 instead of eliminating them-As stated an page z61 of the
DEIR,the total number of trees on campus is set ta increase by 2,494.Howe�er,the plan calls far 4,5fl5
mature pratected trees to be cut dvwn due tv rvad widening and the building of the campus.Mature trees
ha�e been fvund to remv�e more pollutants frorrt the air than younger trees.3 AEthough potentially mvre 7
wark to relfltate,the aestheti�and climate 6enefits are warth the investment.A core value listed in ihe
Apple Campus 2 6rflchure sent out#�y Peter dppenheimer mentions increasing the number of new and
rnature trees. By cutting down mature trees,Apple's actions wouid 6e in opposition wi#h that�oal.
4. Extend the reeycled water deliuery system nr cansider nnsite grey-water re-use-Given that water
insecurity is likelyto be a major issue in the fut�re we urge Apple,the Cities of Cupertino and 5unny�ale,anr!
other in�o��ed parties to extend the recy�led water de�i�ery system to serve this proje�t.This project shouid g
serve as an example for major cflmmercial de�elopmeni noY yet served 6y alternati�e water supplies.We
alsa recvmmend the cpnsideratian af onsite grey-water re-use.
5. ExpBnd riparian SethaCk to lOp fEet-A 5a foot riparian sett�aek is not sufficient.Although the esta6lished
5a-foot f�uffer is eonsidered adec�uate{from page�57 af the d�IRy, many Io�al cities within 5anta Clara
County have set a 100-fnat rfparian setback pa4icy,''There is roam�n the campus site to pravide this
setback and enhance the riparian�orridor.Apple can change the design to accommodate the same 6uilding 9
foatprint without encraa��ing on this recommended sethack.Apple,as a majar locai corporate ican should
set an example far stream stewardship and riparian ecosystem prvtectivn.
6. Rdd an Apple stnre and�or an Apple Mussum far the cemmunity-Dne idea we kn❑w the�❑mmunity wauEd
ko�e is to include a way to generate sales tax for the city hy adding a store to the new cam�us.E�en ii it is a
"mini-stare",by designing it in such a way that laaks ico�ic,it will attract tourists and lacals a�ike which will 10
estak�lish a new farm of re�enue far Apple and for the City of Cupertin�.This can help the City and Apple tv
continue in�esting in great infrastructure and"green"kechnologies. Mareo�er,as part af the project,Apple

�ould work with the City of Cupertina to have a museum decficated to same of the hreakthrough produ�ts 10
that Apple has produced.5uch a museum could be lacated away fram this research faeility w�ich should
remv�e�oncerns vver security at the new campus. C011t.
7. MBke the exteri0r more intere5ting fOr the put]IiC-The exterior of the facility is essentially planned ta 6e
unimpro�ed.While employees and�isitors can benefit from se�era!interior"parks"and paths,there are n❑
such fa�ilities vn the exterior for residents to enjvy.While it is uncferstandable that Apple,Inc.does not want 11
the facility to 6ecome an"attraction"for residents and visitors to our region,they�ould make the exterior
more presentahle to the public.For example,undulate the fence,add park i�enches,add public art,etc.
We offer the following recommendations fnr the City of Cupertino's consideration:
1. Use taxes generated hy Apple for additional picyele and pedestrian impro�ements between rhe eampus I 12
and publi�transportation.
2. Ask Apple for a no net trip intrease. I 13
3. Implem�nt trdffit impdtt fees to he used toward future transportation improuements and updates in the
�icinity of Campus 2.Impact fees are eharges that local go�ernments may assess an new de�elopment
pr�jects.The fees reimburse at least a portivn vf the casts incurred hy Ivcal government to provide the
public faci{ities needed tv serve the new develvpment.Impact fees may only be used tv fund public facilities 14
needs that are reasonably related to the new de�elopment.They may he used to pay the de�elopment's
proportionate share of the�ost vf public facilities ihaY benefit the new de�elvpment;hvwe�er,impa�t fees
cannot be used tv�orrect existing deficiencies in public faci€ities.
4. Implement hpu5ing impatt fees-Housing impact fees are when de�elopers pay a fee to offset the demand
for afforda6le housing created as a res�lt of their deuelopment.This a�tion is be�oming mare pre�alent
throughout the Bay Area.Fqr example, Mvuntain View has a$7.0 per square fopt of new de�elopment ta g❑ 15
toward new rental projects.6 8y asking Apple and other eampanies to pay a housing impact fee,it al�aws
more funding for affvrdable hausing tv#�e buElt in the area.
Thank you for taking the time to re�iew and�onsider our recommendations. Please�antact us if you ha�e any follow I 16

The DE1R pasits that the left mast turn lane wil� have sharter queues and that som�

ram�s. �hat wpuld require� merge across two lanes, patentialEy within a shart distance.

belie�e this typp of canfli�t is unli�Cely t�occur in the first insCance and, in any event,�an

that, unlike a p�bli�street, e�eryane �ea�ing will be co-workers,which �Ne belie�e wili
moderate aggressi�e driving f�ehavior. In additian,the issue car� be further minimizetf k�y
t�e foflowing measures:
• Instal�ir�g cRear signage through�ut t�e exit ap�raa�h, including overhead signs, 3
painted directions orr lanes and appropriate lane striping
• Infiernal emplayee edu�ation
• TrafFi�monitars
We prapa�e Che City allavv the ProjecC ta open with three lanes, subjett ta a nine-month
monitoring period. This manitaring could !�e ccrndu�ted i�y an independent obser�er,at
Apple's expense. The ohs�r�er would assess and document the extent of weaving during
the peak PM period. If aft�r this initial periad it appears weaving is in fact an isse�e, the�iry
co�ld require the elimination af one IefC turn fane. If the third I�ne remains open,the City
�o�ald retain its discretion ta close a lane at a iater�ate, if issues arise.
Apple belie�es this approach not anly eliminat�s any poter�tially 5ignificant impacts, but is
alsa fair_ As it stands,the D�lR a55umes the wor�t w+ll happer�. We propose a middle
ground that allQws us to demonstrate weav+ng will nflt be a prablem. If we are wrong the
City has a remedy. T�is bath mitigates the im�act and a���mmodates A��3e's operational

CUPERTl1VD HAS SDME UNIQUE C7PP�RTIJNlTi�5
First of all,Cupertina has ihe documented rig�t to clairn 10 be ihe"Sirthpla�e of the Pe�sana4 Computer Industry."Ap�ie
Computer was started an Aprii 1,1975.by Sleve Wozniak and 5teve Johs.and in�orporated hy th�m an January 3.1977 in
Cupert�r,o.+�:�iif�rni�. Appie's"Apple 2"earnputer was the firsi truly"Personal Computer."Alsn it was not a"ki[",as many varibus
pre�ious a►tempts were{inciuding Appaa's irrno�aii�e app�e �"),thai had to be assembied and programr�ed,et�.7he �Apple 2"
was tne first persanai eomputer,cnmplete aus-ot�he-bvx and ready ta ga. �t was aiso the rirst to�ame in a piasti�;�ase and ta
include calor graphics,The"Apple 2"was(anrJ s�ill is)an impressi�e ma�l�ine. I still have mine.I hsve a1 leasi 10 App1e
Computers and many other Apple peripherals and produ�ts,like my App4e Graphic Tai�let,an which i did rhree drawings
{Illustralivns"y ai home for SRI.I was told by ihe Edilors.I#iey were li�e"first"conzputer 11lustr_ations eyerpublished.and thay were
in a repan�y SRrs"Lang Range Planning 5ervi�e."
5ecand,Appie is tamous wQrl�-wide because of the 5te�es we adore,who are reguiarly known as"7he 8ays from 1
Cupertino"in the news.baoks.and ati�er references.Sa.�ur"LiFtle Cupertino"is alsa becoming known wqrld-wide as a
Landm ark.
Third,Apple is Cupertinp's larges[spu�ce�f retail tax revenue fvr Cupertino.Let's fzppe Apple,Inc.�emains here. Besides
hoping,let's da a!I ihat we can[o en�ourage App1e lo continue ta iceep it's NeadguaRers here in Cupertino,if's ariginal Nomeland.
Now,ahQUt�raffi�.Appls already occupies mas[of the buildings in Cupertino a�d is spilling a�er�nto near�y cities.It is
reasanat�{e to assume that Apple will consolidate the sr.attered emp{c�yees into the new Campus,and some Traftic will pnly
change places and w+ll not increase.
However Cupert+no,like afl cities needs Traffic(balh[ypes]ta support the ather businesses that it hosts+n Cupertina,[a
keep them profilable viahle,and staying open,for addilianal cily relail tax reven�e.New emplQyees wilf likefy join 1he patronizers

Speaking about supponing Cupertinci s businesses,i hope tor a new 5tare.Rs a sharehflider.as a shareha�der's meef�ng.�

Dear CLipertina City Council Me»Zbers,
I attetaded the July 9i�' Sunny�ale Cau�cil Chaanber rneeti��� to hear the report on the Apple 2
Cainpus DEIR. I was �ery disappainted that there was no expli�it disc�issian of wliat I
cansider ta be t11e most basic af questions ahaut t11e Apple 2 Ca�npus praje�t, whicl� is: Is t11e
project simply taa big far the target [ocation? The draft ElR talks about sa�ne impacts that are
"significailt", "una�oidable" $I3C� "[I77T C7I]I3d[t7E [Ill[lf?1teCI t0 7 1E55-ttl8Il-S1�T[11�1C7IlT ICV@I 1
with feasible ir�iti�ation measures". That statement clearly i�ldicates t11at there will he a
negati�e impact a�1d there is e�ery reason ta belie�e that certain 5u�iny�aie residents [i3�ostiy
Birdlar�d �-eside�lts) will ha�e to live witll those n���ati�e impacts for as lori� �s they li��e i�l
Sunny�ale.
As a 24-year resident of Birdland in Sui�ny�ale, one of the things I ha�e �o�ne to ��lue
tremendously ahout wllere 1 li�=e is tile character of my nei�hbarhood, and spe�ifically �ny
alaility to quickly access the carpool lane on Hi�t�way 28� and be at Sat� ]ose airpart or
parked in 5an Jose downtown tQ attend a play at the Rep or to ga to the apera. Presently, 2
those trips typically take me no lon��er than 15 tQ 25 �ninutes, e�en at b�isy canlmute titnes. I
�an only ima�ine hvw addin� se�eral thousand cars frorn the Apple Z Campiis to the
Wolff128� and LawrencelZB� an and off-ramps will make those trips int❑ Sa�� Jose feel like a
traffi� can�estian �iightmare.
Appendix B, Traffic Impact A�ialysis of tlie draFt EIA has an assessment of the cLirrent
cammute time traffic sitiiations as �arioi�s locatians. For example, it states: "In the PM peak
periad, tl�e q�iei�e from t11e ramp meter extei�ded back six to se�en cars onta Wolfe Road." If 3
a traffic analysis su�gests tl�at tk�at que�iing is not �oin� ta become absolLitely horreifd�us
with the additiat� af se�eral tl�oiisands more cars from Apple 2 tryin� t❑ access Highway 280
at Wolff Road, tlien tl�at sug�ests to me the traffic analysis is fundanlentally flawed.
ln iny opinian, the Apple Z Campus buildin� is too tall of a buildin� [How maEly Birdland
resider�ts know tllat the rop of tlle buildin� will be 77 ft hi�her than Homestead?; i.e., a 57 ft
tall buildin� an tap af a 2U ft tall earthen plateau}, tao large af a bi�ildi�l�� �a 150U ft diait�eter
�iant donut that may look autdated and u��ly all toa saon], too great a density of employees,
resultir�� in toa much additional commute time traffic, and it will lead ta a fundamental
�hange in the c��iality of life for many Birdland residents. I predict it will alsv lead to an 4
unima�inable increase in traffic-related frustratioi�, especially at Lawrenc�128Q and
Wo1ff1280 at commute tin�es. If the Apple 2 Ca�npus praject is appro�ed as it, it will be
impossible far tt�ose proUlems to e�er be tindone. This proje�t will fore�er chan�e ttle
nei�l�borhoad character of southwest Siirn�y��ale and that chan�e will be almast ex�liisi�ely
ne�ati�e.
Back to my first q«estsan: How big is to❑ big? Answer: Tt�e Apple 2 Camp�is is to❑ big.
It's tin�e that peaple acknawled�e that a proje�t can simply be taQ bi� for a �i�en lo�ation, 5
and it's time far us ta do samethi�l�about it befare it's taa late.

5uhje�t: Apple Campus 2 size& road closure
This is in regards ta the proposed Apple Campus 2 that replaces the ❑Id HP Gampus.
As a resident of Cupertin❑ and a neighbor af this "Mothership" project, I'm cancerned 1
about the immense size of this proje�t and the raad �lasures hoth during canstru�tion
and the permanent �lasures after completian.
7he projeet is too big. boes Apple need that much space? The �uilding alane will �e I 2
bigger than the new 49ers stadium in Santa Clara.
As proposed, all of the existing buildings will be torn down. However nearly all the buildings
are in excellent candition and mast are �urrently o�cupied. Several buildings were huilt in 3
the Z970s and �980s, sa there's little that they need tv be brought up-to-date.
Many trees on the ald HP CampuS in�luding its famed Redwood Grove are propo5ed I 4
t❑ be r�maved. These trees should be preserved.
As a local resident, I'd like t❑ know whi�h road will k�e closed during the praject. I 5
Is this information availahle yet?
After completion, Pruneridge Ave between Wolfe Rd &�antau A�e is slated for
complete closure due to the imrriense size of the "Mathership" praject.
I use this rvad &feel it will be mu�h harder t❑ get araund because the alternatives
are not as easy to tra�el.To the sauth, there the 28p freeway and Vallca nall, 6
making ac�ess via Vallco Parkway nat easy. To the north, there's Homestead Rd,
whi�h is already a busy road with Ranch 99 ❑n the �orner.
Lastly, a philosophical questian. ❑aes one affi�e building have to kae sa big? I 7

fhe sarrse City of Cupertina website ar send an email. I would focus ❑n mitigatian
ideas as it appears the Cuperfino Council will approve any#hing tha#Apple puts
forward. One mitigation idea that I am going tQ sugges# is busing the schflal kids 4
from Sunny�ale and Santa Clara to the district-wide schaals �at Apple's minimal
expense}, thus taking many single far-r�ily�ehicles afF the most impacteci
intersections. Added benefit is reducing the cflngestion at McAuliffe, Murdock-
Portal, and CLIP sites.
The city of 5unnyvale will also hold a study session to discuss the draft EIR an July 9 I 5

As a lang tirr-ie resident of Cupertino, I feel Apple has hrought a strong value to our city in terms of high
tech jobs, attraction ta other businesses, and notice as a place to be in technology. I think the
prapased Campus � at the farmer HP site was be a world class facility and we should extend e�ery
effort to build it. It wiil hring notice to our community in a very positive sense. Although there may be 1
slight increases in congestion, such as going from the HP site 80�0 odd parking spa�es fo some
14004, let's expecf and ask for good mitigatian efforts. Let's also not forget the strang green sensibility
vf typical Apple employees to work ta reduce cor�gestion by using public transit and bicycles?
Thank you,

5ut�}e[t: In�reased Traffi[ and Fre2Wdy ACC�SS impravements related t❑ Apple z and Main 5treet???
�ear Valued Coun[il Representatives:
I wauld like t❑ knaw what plans there are ta enlarge and impro�e freeway ac�ess as the Apple 2
Campus and the Main 5treet proje�ts are de�elvped?
Curre�tly I already fincf it nearly impassible t❑ en�er and exit my apartment community lfl�ated
aQjarent ta The Roasted Caffee Bean an Ste�ens Creek �nd Tantau during rush haurs.
This has ac�urred since Kaiser was hui}.t and Apple has rented mast �f the affi[e huildings along
Tantau A�e. I'm sure the legians of szl�er Apple huses and vans �ruising araund tne area have
helped ta minimixe traffi� - as ❑pposed t❑ single driver vehirles - but it was irrespansihle
planning fpr �irtually n❑ imprp�ement in freeway access when #he large f�pspital was 6uilt. 1
I trust that with su�h Hl1GE plans for de�elopinent i{� fihis area that same SERTOlJS consideratiai� far
the in�reased traffic is heing considered. Otherwise I foresee majnr prahlems being �reated, (as
like what o�curred along �86 when 5antana Row was de�elaped with no increase in freeway a�cess}, in
what is already a �ery �vngested sectian of the freeway and its onloff ramps during rush haurs.
Please take a mvment to dra�e personally in this area during rush hours yourselves. 5te�ens Creek
and Lawren[e Expwy. are already extremely �angested.

Tap,
I da appreciate yaur sending us the links tQ the Apple 2 campus de�elapment. In what follows, I'd
like ta speak as a rE�sident ❑f Santa Clara, and npt as the Treasurer of�c���i.� L'.I�,r�, �-'f�s�5 E��,ir.
At soine S��D pages, Rpp1e's giving us n�ore ini'n for their 17C� acres than tl�e 4�[�� pages th�t the
San Francisco 49ers ga�e us Santa Clarans For the 17 (yes, se�ent�eny acres they're de�elol�ing fn
aur ci _ry.
Very briefly, when one looks at the potential "e�onamic acti�ity," the A��ple can�pus is going to
contrit�u.te far more t.o �uper#.inv - and 1c� surraunding citses - t.han tt�� �9ers will e�er coiltribute�
t� Santa Clara. The Apple DEIR notes that the Apple� Cam�3us will c�npiny alanut l�,�Cl[] people 1
at capacih�. If'thase �15K 1tnQwledge worl�ers are grossing a median ❑f $50K�year, tteen that's
otrer $70�,�DU,OUO a year$n payroll alvne.
Those technical prc�f'essianals will be doing fai-inore af their owiz business - home iinprovement,
hause�hold, groceries, �eisure, majnr purchases - in the local area than sta�lium wnrkers earning
$7,aUa a y�ar in Santa Clara can possik�ly cfo,
Tlzat's t.he major reason why t.he Apple campus is, t.o me, a clear winiYer for Cupe.rtino and for its
neighbc�rs. (Thc �9ers' Stadium payroll amounts tcs �� s�in�in�� :�17h�� r� yz°�,.3- -- or a miserak�lc
2.4°/a af'the payroll of the Apple Campus at full capacity.�
Nonethelc�ss, i had a]ot af reservatians originally. For me, the stir.king p�int was the request that
the City of Cupertino a�andan Pruneridge A�ei�ue at Walf'e Raad.
It's true: The taxpayers ❑f Santa Glara Neighbors far Responsible Deve�vpment paid far that
thornughfare - just as we all waited ��er a decade and paid millions o(�dollars ta have Tas�nan
Dri�e link Milpit.as wiih Sunnyval�. Y�t, Tasman �ri�e, � m�jr�r tcc.hnolo�y i�usiness corridor, will
be cordoner� aff to ihorQUghfare east ot Great America 1'arkway before the 49ers' ganle days.
That's an �sseniiai � loss ta t.axpaYCrs - and it's �eing�ane�or❑ fo❑tUr�tl�r��rze, if yau can imagine 2
anything so blindingly stupid. Sur at least we Sant� Clarans are goin� ta se�I a mess of
�heescburgers for ihc. $1.2 billian dnllars that ihe 4t�ers' stadiun� wi�l c�si {Right?).
An_yw�y. I w�s nat sympathetic t:o Apple ari�inally, ai'ter the issue af blocking ❑ffTasman ❑ri�e
was clis�nissc.d ❑filiand in aur own 49ers' L]�IP. IIowr'�[r, thc one graphi� that changeri my mind

Nate that the land mass nf the Apple Campus � is almost. e�enly di�ided narth and south vf the
current Pruneridge A�enue. If the southern parcel were a lot smaller than it is, then I'd demand
of Appie Computer that Pruneridge sta_y put, and that they put guard shacks both n�rth and
sauth af Pruneric]ge, 2
But that's iiot the case, and I say that in spite of the fact that the absen�e af ingress�egress on an C011t.
aUandoned Pruneridge Av�:nue segment means more pressure on �80 and on Homestead Raad.
A.lso, ! must add: Thc abax�donmNnt of Pi-uneridg� at Apple 2 will cause "traffic calming" to thc
benefit�f aur neighbors in the southeast�rn corner af the City oF Santa Clara. Personall_y, I like
the slnw dri�e ta Vallca by way ❑f Pruneridge A�enue. But as a resident ❑f Santa Clara, I'd be
willing ta gi�e that up becaus� of'what I saw in the D�IR link aUo�e,
Many t.hanks, Tap, for the A�ple DFIR links. Campaxed to the peanuts that we Sant.a Clarans
settled for out of the San Francisco 49ers, Cupertino is cleariy getting the better deal here.

At the enrt of the day, the ❑nIy similarity�etween Apple 2 and the $9ers's sul�sidiced st.adium is

I have ii�ed in the Cupertino, Sunny�ale area a�er 3D years.
I hear there may t�e some concems on wh�ther the City Cauncil should approve the Apple 2 project.
Often times at various tit�nes of the day, in the area af existing Apple Cupe�fino faci�ities, I have 1
nflt experienCed any unaccepta�le traffic cc]rlditions.
Appies erriployee busing pragram now and�ommitted far Apple 2's future wilf corstinue to keep individual
cars afF Cupertino streets.
Apple has cantinued to keep me and I suppase, ather Cupertina resfdents with their plans far the Apple 2
�ampisx. ��tails for supporting th� Incal �conomy with�o�s,
supparting kflcal businesses, supparting lo�al go�ernments and neighborhaods ser�tces as welf as
supparting the lacal �amrnunity su�h as S have ne�er sesn pro�ided by any husinesses in the past. Na doubt
that Apple has also prv�ided �omplete commitrnents far the ak�a�e ta the City Cpuncii.
.iobs for#hose who f�uilci the new�ompiex, revenue for local husinasses who serve Apple and it's employees
and p�operty taxes alane are vaGd reasans ta support 2
what in my opinian will become the highlight point far Cupertino.
The image that one of the warids top �orporations has it's headquarters locat�d in C�pertino will surely invite
ather c�mpanies tv consider Cuperttna as well.
�ar the above, I hQpe t�e Cuper#ino City Coun�il will strangly support and go ahead witk�the A�pfe 2 project.
There by answering the question, "how can we IV�T
sup�art the approval"?

Dear City Councilrnembers:
I am writing you today in regards to the Apple 2 campus. I was pleased to
re�eive a re�ent �ampus update in the mail from Apple with details of the new
carnpus.
As you know, when I served an the city cauncil 5teve J�bs came and annvunced
his intention to keep Apple here, in Cu�ertino, replacing the �urrent buildings on
the HP site. His announcement was met with enthusiasm and excitement even
thaugh (at#hat time} we dic{n't know wha#the campus would look like. Steve
implied the design would k�e both en�ironmentally sensiti�e and a beautiful ❑ne-
of-a-k€nd building. L�oking at the current design that is definitely true.
As a Mayor and councilmemher, I was particularly pleased that Apple decided to
expand in aur city. As you are na dou�at well aware of, many cities court
co�npanies like Apple in ❑rder to reap#inancial rewarcfs. It is nice t❑ knaw the
substantial re�enue generated by Apple hel�s to fund city pragr�ms �nd the jvt7s 2
they create in our town will coniir�ue far many years into the future. The financial
investment Appie is willing{y making is tremendaus, �reating a shared benefit of a
publiclprivate partnership, The indire�t dollars spent in ❑ur tawn will be equally
beneficial to the city's coffers as well. The long term fiscal sta�ility brought about
by Apple'S Current presEnCe and expan5i0n is key tq �ur City's tuture.
I am also thrllled at the greening of the farmer HP site. To fiip the percentage of
buildings ta apen space is awesome—showing that environmental sustainability
is compa#ible with new construction —and can also I�ok g�ad. Jabs' visian of the
Ap�le 2 campus complementing the greater surraundings comes through in the
designs shawn the public thus far. The example af putting nearly all the parking
underground and in structures is smart—again, reinforcing the point t�at open
spa�e is important and should be�ome business-as-usual.
I five on the side ❑f town that will be most impa�ted by the Apple 2 campus.
7raffi� issues certainly need t❑ be addressed. Having said that, though, r�yself 3
and many of rny neighbors are c�n�inced that Apple's expa�sion in our city is
both welcomed and needed.
Lastly, the `buzz' App}e creates for Gupertino is pri�eless. When I was travelling
in Barcelona a couple of weeks aga, a local asked where I li�ed and I answered
"Gupe�tinfl", He stated he didn't know that tflwn but definitely lit up when I replied
'home af the iPhone and Apple Computer'; Apple puts Cupertino an the worid- 4
wide map!
Thanks far your hard work on this and ❑ther pressing issues before th�Gity.
5in�erely,
❑QriY
❑o�ly 5andoval

We cauld withdraw our oFsjections if AAP�wvuld prevail on the City to annex the area east af Lawren�e to

Westwaad Oaks waufd add much to the Cup�rtina tax base,and ICaiser and Agilent wauld add to Cupertino

I am a resident Cu�ertino and own a hnme at 1�24Q, Sterling Bivd. Cupertino. As a langtime res�dent
I ha�e seen the lea�ing of HP from aur town ar�d haw it hurts�ur City fir�ances. in �iew of the
dwindling re�enue due to such departures, caupled with the ecanomic downturn, it has become
im�erati�e that we allpw Apple ta c�mplete their Campus �. .
Apple's new Cam�us will hring j�bs, badly needed re�enue to s�pport our schaals and �f course the 1
growi�g rsquireme�t for infrastructur� �pdates. It is irue that an increased flow of traffic and increase
ir� papulatian density will bring some Cfiscamfgrt to the residenc�. Thts calls for sacrifi�e ai certain
luxuries that a small tawn offers but the alternatives su�h as increase in taxes ta the already high
house taxes is fright�ning.
I would like to hereby register my whole hearted endorsement of the Apple 2 Campus prnject.

dear Counci3.,
Apple is expanding a Gig way in Cupertino, which to me laaks like Mpnapaly si#uation.
Cupertino real estate fs nn high peak, just herause of Apple emplvy as they buy the praperty after
selling Apple stvcEc and take henefit of taxes. It's hard for common person to buy property in 1
Cupertinv.
I am against Apple Campus 2 �onstru�tiQn. Nape my thaughts wilY be consirlered.

Cvmment Apple camments July 2fl13
I am very exGitad about this project and what it will da for Cupertino.
In general,t�e EIR is well Ehought out. However, it does not loak far enough chronologically
inta 1he fu#ure, nor does it Ioak far enough geographicalEy into the Cupertino community.
This will be Cupertino's landmark for a lifetime—probahly se�eral lifetimes. I would suggest
that the huilding be taller—"padded up"to provide more parking underneath,and rr�ore
stories tprobably twoy added to provide room for future growth-�ut especially to provide a
prominent�isi�le landmark for aur cammunity. 1
I'm afraid the new building will get Iost in the forest.The trees are wonderful,and tt�e
building as planned will Iook great fram the air, but it needs to be seen between and above
the trees as well.
Alsa,Apple alsa needs to open its doors to the community.There was a suggestian at a
recent General Plan Amendment meeting that we ha�e an Apple museum.What we realfy
need is an Apple visitor Center,with a store, museum,and interpretive talks_This cauld be 2
a destination for the world in sa many ways—why limit ourselves when we have#his great
❑pportunity?
Speci#i�afly Regarding:
"PLAN 3b"{north-south traif Parallel to 28fl}. I wauld re�ommend gaing beyond just a study
ta include pubEic camment,design,and�anstruc#ion. This would he a great recreatianal and 3
alternative transpartation asset to Apple and well as ta the Cupertina community.
BIa-3 I recommend a mix of old and young�1 gallonJ trees,since smallest trees grow
faster in the long r�n, and wifl out-grow a large transplanted tree o�er time. I know that
Apple has l�ought e�ery 60"boxed oak that's a�ailable, but we do not need complete 4
instant results, but ra#her an urhan forest that will best endure in the long run.
HYD-1; Every effort shauld he made to reduce urban runoff through state-vr-the art methvd
including swales,rainwater storage cisterns, and permeable surfaces. I 5
Trans:{al�)"Wideni�g roads to salve traffic congestion is like Ioasening your t�elt to cure
obesity,"says Wafter Kulash,a trai�i�engineer fram Drfando, Florida. I agree.We have ta
look at long-range solutEOns, su�h as higher density housing [and ac�ompanying better
�kgh1 life}near Apple, as well as alternatives such as high-speed dedicated bus-only lanes 6
—not just on 5te�erts Creek, but even on 280 and 85.As a founding member of the
Cupertino Bi�yclelPedestrian Commission, E am canvinced that such raad"Impra�ements"
will would make our roads much mare di�cult and dangertius for serious cyclists.
Table III-1 {Qevelapment 5ummary}A Sfi°/o reductio�in square feei per employee.Just
wondering—will it be a�rowded work environment? 7
The need for a park: "Mos#of the site would t�e surrounded by a security fence..."Apple's
"fundamenfal ot�jective far priva�y,security,and the prote�tion of intelle�tual
property"[project description}is understandabEe, but it is cantrary ta the Gity's need for
parks and apen space.There is n4 reason why ihe fence line coufd nat be madified ta allaw $
public access—much as urban l�uildings allvw public a�cess to their plazas.As a Cupertinfl
Parlcs and Recreatian Commissioner, I befie�e that not all parks ha�e to t�e big—they can
include smailer spaces far intimate con�ersatian as well as solitude.

Subject Traffi�Cancern
Comment f'm a resident of Santa C1ara in the neighborhood of Westwoad�aks which is directly east
of the praposed campus. I'm cancerned with traffic an Pruneridge Ave.The current HP
camp�s hasn't been fully occupied fvr prabably o�er 1Q years. But w�en it was fully
a��upied, Pruneridge traffic was very heavy.Quring evening hours, lf you were going
wesEhound on Pruneridge and wanted to turn left onto Wolfe,you had to wait through at
least one redlgreenlred traffc light cycle and sometimes two cycles before you could get
onto Walfe-adding many frustrating minutes to what in#he past had heen a very quick
drive. Simlarly,going eastt�ound on Pruneridge to turn Eeft onto or�ross Lawrence,you had
to wait through at least one traffic light cy�le.That was the worst Pruneridge traffic has ever
been.
Naw,Apple wants to add 40°Io more employees over current max occupancy.The traffic in
the late 9as, early 200fls is the anfy data point we have{besides traffic models}to foresee 1
what trafC�will laok like.Adding this many more�ommuters will undoubtedly have a very
negati�e effsct on neark�y residential traffic, lawering our qualiry af life.This daesn't e�en
include the fact that fore�er in the future after the proposed�ampus is built,each and e�ery
time we want ta ar,�ess 280 northbound,regardfess af traffic, minutes will be added ta our
drive be�ause of the ciosure of the segment nf Pruneridge.
Nearby Santa Ciara residents ha�e little say in this process fhough we will be impacted the
mast-as will the nearhy 5unnyvale residents. In the case that aur traffic cancerns are not
mitigated, Santa Clara residents do have an option.Thai option would be to close
Pruneridge at the Santa ClaralCup�rtina border east of Tantau-maybe keeping it apen ta
footlbike traffic. How would�losing Pruneridge at the 5anta ClaralCupertino border affect
surrounding traffic and afFe�t this project?
Thank you for your time.

Su6ject General Comments Apple Campus 2 ❑EIR
Comment I ha�e read the DEI�2 in connection with the proposed Campus 2 project �"Project"}for A�ple
Computer, Inc., hereina#ter referred to as "Appl€cant."This is a huge praject with tremendous
impfications for the quality oi life far those within Cupertfno, as welE as surrounding 1
�ommunities. Most ot the comments are related in some way to transpartation, as near3y all
aspects af the project will ha�,e su�stantial impacts to the local transportation infrastructure.
The�omments are arranged in no particular arder ai importan�e or priority.
1}Although Applicant has stressed the amoun#of green space the proposed Project will
encompass, nor�e of this will be pubficly accessible and thus generates no public benefit. In
tact, Appli�ant wishes to�reate a#ort with security fencing encompassing the entire site. 2
Nowhere in the City is there such a farge block of land where the publi�will be enjained
lrom traversing. The size af this 'Yortress"will impede pedestrian access along the eastern
edga of Cupertina.
2}7he�losure of Pruneridge A�enue is traubling. Appli�ant states this is necessary for
security. Removal of Pruneridge will remove a major bicycling and pedestrian thoroughfare in
that regian. GE�,en the tremendous increase in�,ehicle traific expected on Ste4ens Creek 3
Blrci., Tantau Ave., and Homestead Are. due to tYse Profect, cycllsts will be#arGed to
negotiate congested roads made worse by the Praject for east-west access. Applicant has
not provided a meaningfu[ mitigation far loss of this puh[i� right-of-way and benefit.
Applicant should be required to proGide a free and publicly accesslble shuttle ser�ice#rom
the intersectian of Wolfe and Pru�eridge ta the intersection oi Pruneridge and Tantau Qn a
Irequent Gasis. 5uc�shuttle should be compatible with bicycles and be operated to provide 4
a time-equivalent alternative to the walking path which wifl he remored with the clasure of
Pruneridge.
3}Applicant has not proposed a meaningiul solution to th�impending tralfi� cQngestion
shouEd the Project go forth as propased. The existing inirastructure will be o�rwhelmed by
the traffic entering and exitir�g the site. 5pecifi�ally, facilities to ac�ess I-28D#rom the
�ampus are woefully undersized for the size ot the Project. Applicant should consider
reGuifding the I-280 interchange with Wolfe to i�ciude access ta and from Tantau to pror,ide 5
1or direct access to and from the proposed Praject. As it is, the interchange at Wolfe wiii
quickly saturate, causing spillaGer to tne De Anza and Lawrence Expressway lnterchanges.
The interchange at Lawrence is parti�ularly trauhlesome as it is slready at �apacity and its
design does nat ailow ior easy expansion. Tralfic will spill over anto Ste�ens Creek, Tantau,
Cie Anza and Harr�estead roads leading to grldiack.
4}Applicant proposes a number ol r,arious mitigations for Project impacts, but due to the
multi-jurisdictional nature of the site, most mitigations are outside the jurisdiction of the Gity
ot Cupertino and hence, within the scape af this DEIR, cannot be assured ot cnmpletion.
Applicant therefore does not ensure that many of these critical mitigations will be put into
place. Applicant must se�ure approval for each planned mi#igation and the pro�osed impact 6
of the Project and eflectir�eness ot a!I proposed mitigatEons be taken as a whole. Appli�ant
shou€d r�ot be granted credi#for a rnitigatian for whi�h they ha�e nat Ueen granted approvaf,
nor should the Project be appraued k�ased upon mitigations which �ave nat been approved.
At the�ery least, an occupancy permit shouid not be granted unfil all proposed mitigations
which are ineluded in the acceptance of the final EIR are in place.

cont.
5}Applicant's prvposal iar a pullaut on Tantau increases the risk far bicy�lists as 4ehi�les
will be atterrtpting to pull off ar anta the raadway in the path of Gyclists cantinuing straight
on Tantau. The plan does not indicate any stop or yield signs. Vehicles exiting the transit
laop should have a stop sign. The left turn from NB Tantau into the transit loop poses a ]
potential hazard to cyclists proGeeding S6 on Tantau, especially in the vicinity of large
buses. A stop sign is required. The pEIR�ontains written description of a protected left turn
out of the transif IoQp, but the drawings published earlier in cannectian with this Project
{Perimeter Bicy�le Strategy, dates 4112113}, daes nat show this signal. Whi�h is correct?
fi}App[i�anYs propasal that TpM �erification activit�es not be perforrr�ed during periods of
in�lement weather is inappropriafe. To the degree that compliance with T�M goals requires
modes of transportatiQn substantially impacted by weather[e.g. walking, cycling}, Appli�ant
needs to pro�ide a meaningful and measureable TDM mitigation for days of inclement
weather. Although the City has generally good weather, inclement weather is not unusuaf, g
nar should a transportation plan be designed based on 10Q°/o good weather. UnEess an
alternati�,e inclement weather mitigation is included, the Project will generate u�acceptable
traffic during days of inclement weather. Applicant cleverly asks that this violatian not he
measured, but this request should be denied. �nly through measurement of TDM
effectiueness during periods Qf inclement weather will the City understand the true impact of
the Project.
7]The praposed penalties#or not achie�ing T�M goals are woefully inadequate. Gir�en that a
reasanable estimate far the cost af proGiding an AppEe 5huttle seat is �35lemployeelday,
the proposed penalty of$5 is only 14°/0 of the cost of corre�tion. When the cast of the
penalty is only a small fraction of the cast ai the desired corr�ctive action, the penalty 9
be�ames the default action and the desired objectiGe is nat met. The penalty sl�ould be
increased tenfold#o$5�lo�eragelday su�h that the Applicant has the economic in�enti�e t❑
meet the stated Project goals.
8}The stated incompatibility betw�en a"trip cap"and employment growth is not true. A trip
cap would require a concomitant imprauement in TDM metrics commensurate with
em�loyment growth. While the Applicant can certainly desire unmitigated growth in trip 10
�alume, such growth is incompatible witt�the infrastructure and must be regulated. A tr�p
cap meets these objectives.
9}Consideratian should be given to metering traffic out of the Project. Metering lights,
though initially derided, are now understood to impro�e efticiency and impro�e traffi� 11
capacity. Metering may be required to regulat�the flux af�hicies aut of the Project to
pre4ent gridlack. Gridlock also is extremely inefficient with respect to GHG emissions as
GHGs are emitted with na net useful acti4ity.
10]Applicant daes not indicate where parking for the Ap�le Shuttle buses would be located.
Gi�en the large numl�er of busss inwl�ed, oft-site parking and shuttling of buses fo the
Project could result in a significanf traffic impact and GHG emissions. Where would be 12
buses be fueled?Wil! large quantities of diesel fuel be stored on the Proje�t slte?Now
much diesel iuel will he stared on site tor the emergency generators, and are adequate
measures put into place to detect and contain leaks and spills7
'I1}Serious consideratian should be gi�en to the reduced density option as the Applicant
has not shown means by which the desired Praject can peacefully �a-exist within the 13
propased infrastructure.

Suhject App1e Campus 2 L�EIR con�erns
Cbmment l'm writing to wice grave concerns about the future Apple Campus that will soon be down
the strest from my SunnyGale home. I have lived in my Nightingale home for aver 3� years
and ha4e suffered from increasing traffic issues in the area around Wolfe and Homestead 1
and i foresee that it wi3f be made substan#ially wQrse by the new Apple tratfi�. I woufd like to
inform Cupertir�o and Apple that Apple's current plans are_not_ac�eptable to the adjacent
Sunnyvale neighborhoad. Specifically:
1}As detailed in the environmental im�act report, the entrance ta#he praposed corporate
exercise facility will pose significant problems for residents an my street. The plan needs to
�e modified to increase the parking thaf will pe made a�aiiahle on the�ampus to pre�ent
from negatively affecting our neighborhood. Addifionally, there is no need to provide
pedestrian ac�ess at Nightingale to their facility as there is a �rasswalk at the interse�tion
approximately 1�Oit from the propased entran�e. The addition of a crosswalk at Nightingale 2
wil[ anly encourage people to cir�umuent the traific generated by the new facility, take short-
cufs through my neighborhood and �ause parking issues on my street. 5ince Apple has s❑
much land on �ampus, it would be easy ta ensure that access to the exercfse facilkty is
made internally to the campus rather than affect€ng adjacent communities.
2}Adding a corporate bus drop off an Hamestead is going#o in�rease traffic problems at an
intersectfon that is already o�er�urdened by the fratfic irom#he vallco shopping camplex at
that corner and the Kaiser facility down the road. Please keep any bus stops you create off 3
af streets with resider�ces and mo�re them to either Wolfe or Tantau where they currently
reside. A bus stop there will only further impede traffic, create additianal naise for the
nearby residences and likely cause traffi�accidents.
2J Prouiding .77 parlcing spaces per employee is inadequate and not planning to
aGCOmmodate for the rrzajarity of the emplayees is just plain foolish. Apple has the land on
the campus, they should use it. And i1 it mea�s Apple cant a�hie�e 'accepta�le'traffic 4
le�:ls surrounding the campus with the added commuter numbers, then the plan needs to
be rer,ised#o have Apple pay for additional street der,elopment to mitigate the traffic
problem s.
3}Do not close Pruneridge road. Rlthough the num�ers of cars currently using the street
are srr�all, a lot of the traffic gaing through there will be diverted onto Hamestead as people
regularly exit 28�o�Wolie to get ta their hornes on the other side Qf the campus. The
WoIfelHomestead intersection fraffic was already rated poorly per the E1R, and these
individuals will now be utili�ing Homestead, thereby increasing both the traffic and noise for
peo�le in my neighborhoad. Increasing trafli� by just a couple of percent, whi��this will do, 5
wiif create nightmarish tratfi� patterns at this interse�tion. Already, cars cut through our
neighborhofld during commut��aurs to auoid waiting for 2-3 light cycles at the

In summary, please compel AppEe to moue employee transportatian plans anto their
campus rather than the adjacent roads and increase the arr�ount of parking they make
a�ailable ta employees. Apple has a corporate respansihility to address the needs af their 7
commuting employees as well as the surrounding �ommunity and the current plans fail ta
adequately address these issues.

5ubject APPLE CAMPUS 2 COMMENTS
Comment I SURP�RT THE APPLE CAMPUS 2 FOR THE FDLLOWING REA50NS�
I heartily support the appro�a[vf Apple's Application ta build Apple Campus 2 in Cuperiina..
I ihink it wil[he henefcial,and will help Cupertino to be more prosperous.
When 5teve Jvbs appeared at the Cupertina City Council meeting on June 7, 2a11,to
announce his proposal, a woman in the audience rr�ade some negati�e remarks about it,
and Mr.Jo�s responded:"Do you want me to move my headquarters to another City?
�Mountain View}"Any City wvuld gladly welcome Apple to va�ate Cupertino and locate in
their City. For example 5unnyvale, especially, is licking it's chaps. Please dan't let that
happen. Keep Apple here, in the City where it all began.
There will always pe Naysayers, Philistines, t�7hilistine-a persan who is hostile ar irodif#erent
to culture and the arts,or who has no understandi�g vf them: a def nition frvm a diGtionary},
and Peaple who simply make up statistics,or project unfounded facts about traffic, e#c.
Don't le#them dri�e Apple out af Cupertino. It is likely tha#consoiidating many of Apple's
buildings scattered in Cupertlnv,Sunny�aie,Santa Clara,etc. into one area with an on-site
parking lat wil!help alle�iate some trafFic problems in near�y Cities.
CIJPERTIfVO HAS 50ME UNIQUE OPPORTUNITIES
First af ali, Cupertino has the documented right to claim to be the"Birthplace of the
Personal Camputer Industry."Apple Computer was started on April T,1976, hy Ste�e 1
Wozniak and 5te�e Jabs,and incorporated hy them on January 3,1977 in Cupertino,
California.Apple's"Appfe 2"r.omputer was the frst truly"Personal Computer."Also it was
not a"kiY', as many�arious pre�[ous attempts were[including Apple's innovati�e"Apple 1"},
that had to be assembled and pragrammed,etc.The"App€e 2"was the first persanal
romputer, camplete out-af-the-box and ready to go. lt was also the first to come in a plasti�
r,ase and to include colpr graphics.The"Appfe 2"was�and still is}an impressi�e machine. I
still have mine. I ha�e at least 14 Apple Computers and many other Apple peripherals and
produ�ts,like my A�ple Graphic Tablet, on which I did three drawings{IElustrations"}at
hame far SRI. I was tQld by the �ditars, they were the"firsY'�amputer Illustrations ever
puhlished,and they were in a repart by SRI's"Long Range Pfanning Service."
5e�ond,Apple is famous worfd-wide because of the Steves we adore,who are regularly
known as"�he Boys from Gupertino"in the news, baaks,and tither references. 50,Dur
"Little Cupertina"is also becomir�g known world-wide as a Landmark.
Third, Apple is Cupertina's largest source of retail tax re�enue far Cupertino. Let's hope
App€e, Inc. remains here. Besides haping, let's da all that we can ta encourage Apple to
continue to keep it's Headquarters here in Cupertino, it's original Homeland.
Now, abaut Traffc.Apple already occupies most of the buildings in Cupertino and is spilling
over inta nearby�ities. It is reasona�le to assume that Apple will consolidate the scattered 2
employees into the new Gampus, and some Traffic will only�hange places and will �ot
increase.
Hawever Cupertino, like all cEties needs Traffic{hath types}to support the atYrer husinesses
that it hosts in Cupertino,ta keep them profitable�iable, and staying open,for additional
ciry retail tax revenue. New employees will likely jain the patronizers Qf Cu�ertino's other 3
businesses, ❑n lun�h hours and after wark.We Cupertino's residents akl need to support all
of Cupertina's businesses. We also want other peaple to come and shop in Cupertino. It
would be foolhardy to dis�ourage the traffc of peaple�oming ta Cupertino ta shap!
Lett
C42
cont.
5peaking about supporting Cupertino's businesses, I hope for a new 5tore.As a
sharehalder, at a shareholder's meeting, I ance asked Mr. Jobs: "Why don't we have an
Apple Store in Cupertino?" He replied : "I get a lot of requests for stores. I don't think one
here would get mu�h Traffc"�However, in this case, what he was referring to is a marketing
term: "Traffc" meaning customers who go i�to stares, and no#to road trafFic, He thought
that not many people would actually visit an Apple stare in Cupertino.} 8esides my Apple II,
as I have said I have faurteen Ma�intoshes. I know there is a company stare on Apple
Campus 1, t�ut you can't huy Appfe Hardware tf�ere; in fact you can't buy Appfe hardware
anywhere in Cupertino. We need A�ple's Real "Flagship Store"to be here in Cupertir�a. I
am happy to live in Cupertino and I would enjay shopping at an Apple store here. It is
annoying to have to ga to Apple stores in other cities. I'm sure I'm not the only person in
CUpertino who would go into an Apple store here.
When Mr.Jok�s announced his plans for Apple Campus 2 a#the Gupertino City Council, he
said: "Many people will �ome fram all aver the warld ta look at this new huiEding, espe�ially
Architects and Ar�hitectural students and Tourists"That is potentially the"Good"Traffic that
Mr. Jobs said was needed that�ould t�e flling a Glarious New Appke Store in Cupertino:
either in fhe 5pe�ta�ular New Apple Campus 2, ar in an Apple "Logo" Shaped Store, as
viewed from the air,with classes and other events in the in the right leaning"Leaf."That
store cauld t�e located in the proposed Main 5treet Project nearby, and could allay any 4
Apple concerns for privacy. But if our many wisY�es are denied and there is no hope e�er for
an Apple store here, and Cupertino remains as Apple's Orphan, then imagine those
hundreds, or mayt�e thousands of visitor's disrr�ay, disappointment and then bewildered
looks wondering"Why is it that there is no Apple 5tore here, or even nearby?", and for
fhem to learn that they would have to trave] abaut six miles away to the dinky Apple store at
Valley Fair shopping mall an the border�etween San#a Clara and 5an Jose, California.
Isn't that in�redibly ironi�and dumh?Corne on? Apple. Let us buy Apples here in your
Apple Or�harcl. ❑K, your Apri�ot�rchard, if you say so.We need your truly"Flagship
5tare" here in Cupertina, not in some other Gity.
I worked at 5tanford Research Institute�SRI}in Menlo Park for thirty seven years{1955-
1992)as a Creative Artist. In the late 1960's, {in my own late Thirties], I was Creating a
Graphi�, for one 5Rl Camputer 5cientist,that was showing a Bubble Chart illustrating how
mu�h memory would be needed by mainframe carrsputers in the future. I remarked that: "I
could hardly wait to have one" He asked; Ha�e what?" I rep[ied: "A Computer!" He loaked at
me and said: "You want a Computer on your Qesk?' I said: `Yes" He said: "Not in your
Lifetime!"That Computer 5�ientist was alsa named 5#eve.
50. I Thank you, 5teve Wazniak and 5teve Jobs, far bringing to me what I wished for in my
thirties, yaur excellent"Computers on my Desk" in my life#Eme, since 1977! I will continue to
buy more Apple products, now in my early Eighties and more, God willing!

5ubject TraffclConsequences
Comment I am greatly cancerned at�out the traffic irr�pacf of the proposed Apple campus.The roads
araund the new carra�us simply cannat support any more traffic.The city streets and
freeways near the campus were not designed to handle the Eevel af traffc that is prQposed.
The Environmental Impact Report clearly indicates the negati�e impaci the Apple Campus 1
wauld have.5evera! prflpasals are out[ined in the �1R. E�en if al!of the proposals to fx the
raads were campleted�efare the Apple campus opens,certain intersections will still
operate at an unacceptable level. If th�praposals are not implemented,the consequences
ta users af the roads will be se�ere.
CurrenUProje�ted Traffic:
Near the current Apple campus Qn De Anza Boulevard,tra�c backs up antfl I-280 and at
the�e Anza Baulevardllnfinite Laop intersection at the enfrance to the Apple
Hsadquarters. I-28D has multiple exit lanes that Eead to De Anza 6aulevard and help
accommodate the Apple traffic. ❑e Anza Boufevard can barely handle the traffic entering
onto Infinite Laap.
2
At the new�ampus, I-28a dnes npt have the bandwidth ta han�le muftiple exits onto Wolfe
Road. The exit lane is also tao shart ta allow a backup onta the ireeway.Wolfe Road is
simply taa narrnw ta handle more traffic. Traffic currently�acks up on WoEfe Raad during
carnmute hours,which is at capacity.
5u�nyvale Impact:
5unnyvafe,which shares the Walfe RoadlHorr�estead Road intersecfion with Cupertino,will
be greatly afFected, Wolfe RQad and Hamestead Raad will see signifcant in�reases in 3
traffi�. Traffic along WoEfe Raad is already�eavy during commute hours as dri�ers head to
pr from I-280.
Neighborhood Intrusion:
The E1R mentlons that commuters migh#use neighbQrhood streets to access the praject
site.The EEf�does not mentian#hat cammuters will use neighbarhoocf streets ta avoid the
traffi�caus�d by the project site.Comrr�uters trying to avoid the Wolfe RaadlNamestead 4
Road nr WQlfe Roadll-28a traffic cauld turn onta Dartshire Way,ar Inverness Way in
Sunn}n�afe as they tra�el south on Wolfe Road.They could then a��ess I-28�via Qe AnZa
Boule�ard,hut would da so an neighhorhaod streets.
Pedestrian lmpact:
Adding lanes and light interchanges will increase the delay fimes at lights. Pedestrian
crossings can greatly increase delay time at an intersection. Has the EIR cansidered the 5
impact pedestrian traffic will have an the light timing?
Pruneridge Avenue:
Clasure of Pruneridge A�enue is also a concern. This road is used regularly to access
Tantau, Lawrence Expressway, and the shppping areas Qf Vallco and GupertinQ Village. It 6
fs alsa pra�ides access to housing. Closure of this raad will simply increase traffi�on the
surrounding roads, and may affect lacaf businesses.

cantrihuting ta the traffic in the area?Have some of these other projects proposed the
same fixes that Appfe proposes to reduce their traffic impact? If so,the Apple proposals will COnt.
not ha�e the desired effect.
Changes to�toads Unlikely:
The"proposed"actions to address the increased traffic cangestion da not seem feasible.
These proposals require that several transportation agencies be in�olved. �aes Apple have
the authority to modify freeway ramps?E�en if Appie pays for the changes, how long will $
the EIR and required safety studies take before construction starts?When would the
reporfs and the�onstruction be campleted?And have the traffic impacts of the actual
construction pracess for these road changes been cansidered in the E]R?
Consequences?
It seems unlikely t€�at the praposals would a�#uaily be implemented, given the c�mplexity
and hacklog of roadway proje�ts in the state.
What is the rec,flurse if fhis projecf is appro�ed based on the hypotheti�al completion of 9
propasals that may never actually be implemented?What happens to Apple and Cupertino
if this proje�t moves fonvard without�ompleting the ehanges needed to address the traffic
issues?
Alternati�es:
�f the Alternatives presented,the"Pruneridge Avenue Alternative"would be preferred, as it 10
wauld keep Pruneridge A�enue open.
5u mma ry:
If seems that e�en if all of the"propasals"ta fix the raads were fuEly campleted before the
Apple campus opens, certain intersections will still operate at an unacceptable le�el. I 11
The incon�enience to the community,to neighboring cities, to other cflmmuters,to local

5ubject Puhlic comments on Apple Campus
Comt'nent We are original owners af the hame at the end af Pruneridge in 5anta C1ara. �ur backyard
borders Cupertino and Apple's property east af Tantau.Our family has li�ed in this house
for 54 years.We have wel�omed Apple as good neig�bors,and have heen working with
Eric Morley tram Apple on our cancerns. 5o far, Eric has warked�ery hard to create a 1
beautiful iandscaping�ision and a sound barrier wall at our border with the Apple property.
❑ur�oncerns at this point are#he fo[lowing:
1.7raf#ic. Since Apple has moved in, traffic has in�reased no#only in volume and speed af
vehi�les,but alsv in size of�ehicles,whi�h includes very large buses and truGks.7he new
bus traific is especially bofhersome because they are loud. With the proposed increase in 2
number of Apple employees projected to use the new campus,we really don't know haw
we are going ta pull aut af our dri�eway to get to work e�ery day.We feel like Pruneridge is
turning inta Lawren�e Expwy.
2.Ths Obser�ation Ci�cle at Tantaul Pruneridge is the designated paint where the rest of
the warld will be able to take a look a#the Apple campus.This wfll further increase I 3
unwanted traffic.
3. Parking in front of our horr�e.We currently{between passing cars}Iook out at aur friends
homes across the street-beautiful flowers and �ig trees.We don't want to look at parked
�ars.We fear this will only get warse.Alt�ough minor at this point, folks are using the sign 4
in front of our horne as a waiting paint far heing pi�ked up.We now pi�k up little pieces of
trash daily.
4. Proposed height of#he huildings east of Tantau.Tf�e proposed huildings are
appraximately 50°Ia higher than the current buildings.We [ook at these buikdings daiiy as 5
they border our praperty.We prefer to look at sky rathsr than buiidings. The height of these
buildings shouEd not be allowed to be higher than they are currently.
We lo�e and welcome progress. It's what this country is all about, and we feel honored to
have Appfe as aur neighbor. Really,we are an the same page. Howe�er, this is a
residential neighborhaod, and it's a!I abaut quality of life for my 93 year old mom, my 6

5u#�ject Apple's pianned closure af Prur�eridge A�enue
Camment Apple's p�anned closure of Pruneridge Avenue will have major negative impact on
Southwest Santa Clara
If the proposed closure af Pruneridge Avenue is perrrzitted, it will force 5anta Clara
residents,who currently can access Interstate�80 Northbound at Wolfe Raad to use the
already o�ercrowded onramp at Ste�ens Creek Bl�d. The leve! af congestian during 1
commute hours is already on the verge af gridlock. Closing Pruneridge is likely to push
it into gridlock.
The DEIR glibly expecfs residents to take a nan-intuitive detour via Vallca Parltway,
which also feeds into�ongestion on Northbound Woife. Neither alternative is a�tuafly 2
realisti�for residents. Further,for bicyclists, the Tanta�Avenue overpass over Interstate
28� is quite steep and a formidable challenge to casual hike riders.
Pruneridge is, and has heen, a surprisfngly cangestian-free raute far the over 30 years we I 3
have lived in our residence in 5anta Cfara.
Suggested alternati�es:
The DEIR prvvides twv alternative plans aRd dismisses each withvut much thaught. I 4
Both should he reconsidered, along with a third which I would suggest.
The"Pruneridge Avenue Tunnel alternative"is dismissed due ta the need ta relocate the
27 inch sewer kine, yet the propased pfan must do that as well. 5o that shauld not be the 5
deciding fa�tor.
The"Pruneridge A�enue alterna#i�e"couEd be built without irnpact to the planned
buildings by simply curving Pruneridge to the South, once the existing huildings ha�e 6
been removed. The employee entrances currently planned an Woife could also be
maintained, leaving less of a security issue alvng Pruneridge.
I would suggest a third passible alternative--a variant on the"Pruneridge Avenue
alternative" but with Pruneridge being placed in a shallaw cut{15 ta 20 feet deep at
maximum), with wide terra�es an either side, permitting fen�ing to he placed embeddecf �
in the landscaping �and might he two sets of fences for extra se�urity}. Apple employees
would be able to pass overhead at almost grade levef.Apple infrastru�#ure woufd also he
able to pass v�erhead.Apple employee entrances should remain as planned in the DEIR.

proven many years ago when Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs pushed ta force the then high
ranking technical r.orporations to think about the personal computer. Many of them laughed
and said"Not in your lifetime."Look what happened.And look at how many followed
Apple's lead. Sorne e�en "borrowed"Apple's in�entions.
Most people who are agreeable to#he plans usually do not say mu�h; however,the
protesters wi11 and are vaicing their oppasition.The halance comes in the importan�e and
need of all comments and feelings suggested to be analyzed. For example:
Traffic-Yes, as Vallco 5hopping Center will also fun�tion,as Valley Fair has. 1
Environment-This plan has trees, �lossams, parks, walkways,open spaces, etc.
People-Jobs and great ecanomy,shopping and living areas.
Many future plans bring fraffkc, environrnental questians,and people, such as Shapping
Malls,Theaters, Stadiums,Tourist 5ights, Museums, Flea Markets, Farmers Marlcets, and
many flther things hring people tQ an area. I am proud to think that many would came ta
Cupertina for#he newest, most beautiful and interestAng Te�h Company in this ama�ing
vailey. This is the future.
I rememher being amazed at Disney Land's General Electric Theatre which showed all the
future plans. No one cau€d heiieve it. Could it be possible for us to passes such innovative
ideas, from homes with ultra modern appliances tQ 6 lane freeways ribboning the
lands�ape?
In 1962 Stevens Creek was a three lane road with blossams all around. We welcomed
schools, roads, stores, banks,churches, businesses, and the population grew.
This Apple Campus 2, a beautiful Future s#ructure, is the lcing on Cupertino's Cake. Let us
all light the candles of celebration as this is a very special honar for the whole vafley.
Thank you,
Ruth Moore

Subje�t Puhlic Comments on AppleCampus 2DEfR
Comment My interpretation af the fransporta#ian issues frQm the EIR seems ta be limi#ed in solutions
and mitigatian.
Howe�er, ane solution that wauld definitely aid bath Apple and the Cupertino area in adding
10,�Q0 plus employees fo the area is not�a�ating Pruneridge A�enue,While the new Apple
Campus is not in direct conFli�t with current raute. In a major emergebct Pruneridge is a
critical route from West Cupertinal5unnyvale ta#he Kaiser Medical Center where major 1
disaster plans are implemented for major emergencies.
Eliminating an important throughfare with 5 lanes of auto tra�c[a center lane}plus wide
bike lanes. plus adding the 10,Q�a additional employees will only contribute to gridlock ta
the entire area.
�ne alternative proposal to reroute Pruneridge to the south adjacent to 28D. Envision gaing
East ta West and reroute the puhlic route to the left route to the Ridge View Court and
around ta the Ffamptan Apartments on the West ta Wolfe Road. Not only would the city not
lose a major artery, hut it coufd enhan�e the quality of life for both Appfe employees and
the residents, mitigate auto traffic, bike lanes ,and pedestrians . Since the area of near 28� 2
is envisianed far a park like setting this area could�e shared by everyane. iVarth of
Pruneridge wouEd be the Apple 5ecure Campus with fencing and all the security.
5uch a saEutian resol�es a list of problems in�lujding not�acating right of way by city,
maintain a pratecti�e perimeter for Apple, protecting wild life ar�d access to the creek, nat
eliminating traffc lanes, etc.
The TDM and 5h�ttle and hus programs need ta he expanded as traffi�increases.
Mifigation should lnclude stifling Apple employee growth if problems are nat sol�ed.Whiie
trip cap is desired a peak trip cap might be quantified and enforced until solutions are 3
implemented.After the fact problern sol�ing will he much more iimiting. Sett mile stones
with required actian.
Transportation for SeniQrs . 5ince the grawing senior papulation has greater transpQrtation I
needs including medical visits. A door to door shuttle should be implemented ta help senior 4
get to the Kaiser facilities.
Another mitigatian suggestion for bath transporation demands and quality of life is to�ire
localiy.Cupertino, 5unny�+ale,Santa Clara are ian incredibly educated and,talent
population . By promoting very Iocal hiring, ,the traffic demands could lesse�with Apple 5
door-to-doar shuttles. Far each position filled by a residen#,Apple would recei�e a�redit.
The new residences on Vallco Parkway is a case in point. Hiring currsnt lacal residents
reduces commute times far the entire area.
A qualify of life issue for 5unnyvale and Cupertino residents is the current praposals simply
degrades the qualify of life with ali the EIR factors ta cansider. 5chools, parks, law
enforcement, and ease of life are impacted by the new Appie Campus. Prapose using a 6
ribbon of land south of 28D for public access. See my Pruneridge rerouiting proposal.

Subject Closure of Pruneridge
Comment The p€an proposes removal of a section of Pruneridge Avenus.This is propased despite the
fa�t that it directly�ontradicts elements of Cupertino's General Plan �y eliminating bike and
pedestrian access along Pruneridge. Instead bicyclist and pedestrians will be forced on to 1
the busier Homestead Road anci possible even to the Sunny�ale side of Hamestead,
adding to the congestion.
The text suggest that Apples'security requirements are 5�great that bicyclist and
pedestrians�annot be alEowed on the grounds—though the only fa�ilities south of the
farmer raad will be parking and power generation facilities.{And eve�thaugh curr�nt Apple 2
facili#ies in Cupertina dv not have this type of perimeter.}And the dEIR cafls it unmitigatible,
but w�y?
Mitigation idea: l see a failure af creative thinking far which Apple is in theary known for.A
tunnel cannot be built due to a sewer line, but why nat a fly-o�er bicyclelpedestrian bridge
be built reconnecting one end of Pruneridge tq the o#her7 Such a passage way r.ould be
fenced and secured to meet the security paranoi. The bridge cnuld also�e a public piece of
artwork with the right design firm. The new Apple building is to be grand enaugh ta attract 3
ar�Faitectura!tourist and such a pedestrian bridge would provide a se�ure�iewing area for
students of architecture.App[e could work with BAAQM�'s bicycle fa�ility prograrn to
develop appropriate designs and since the bridge would traverse open land instead of a
roadway, its construction should be simpler.This would greatly impro�e non-car
accessihiliry in the area and imprave alignment with Cupertino's General Plan.

Sub�e�t Homestead and Pruneridge
Comment 1}Homestead.5ome sections of Homestead currently have part time bike lanes.
With the�ompletian of the new campus, bath car and bike trafFic wi�l likely increase or�
Homestead.
Thts will pose a safety hazard for bi�ycfists, espe�ially since some portions of the bike lanes 1
allow parking during evening rush hour.
Cupertino should work with the city of Sunnyva3e to make sure that the bike lanes are full
time(with na parking allowed}before the project is r.omplete.
2}Pruneridge. Pruneridge�urrently pra�ides direct acc�ss to the Cupertino Village
shapping center.With th�closure of pruneridge, mu�h af the traffic from Pruneridge will
likely be diverted ta Homestead. 2
This will create additional bicyclelautomobile comfiicts, especially on weekends when the
shopping center is very busy and many�yciists are r[ding on Homestead.
5ome actions s�ould be made to mitigate this.
3}Pruneridge bicycle access.Currentky Pruneridge provides hicyc[e access connec#ing
Cuperino Village and the nearhy residential neighbarhood to many points east�including a
nice bike route to downtown 5an.�ose.}
The current Apple campus plans cauld easily accomodate a bike path connecting Cupertina
Village and Pruneridge through the Apple�ampus. 3
This wo�ld mesh well with the green nature of the Campus. It woufd also would maintain
the existing cannectivity.
The current [nfinite Loop campus has a public trail that connects the car►�pus to the
residential neighborhood and Lawson Middle school.
I#is important that fhe new campus maintain the bi�ycle connectivity. ❑one right,this cauld
enhar��e the campus#ar bath Apple and the community.

5ubject Impact Study Incomplete
Comment The issue of haw a circular design,while may he pleasing Qn land, may be extremely
confusing to migratory flying animals.The circular tfesign would be confusing these species
because fram the sky it would appear as a body of wafer.This w+ould disrupt the flying
pa#tern which could have a negafive dawnstream ef#ect on their feeding, mating, and
overall survival.
Circular designs are typi�ally not a prablem for�nigratorylflying animals but one af this scale
is unprecedented anci under studied. This could also be a nuisance to fhe tawn as there
coul�be a surplus of full time birds that hame near this area causing excessive bird fe�es,
naise, and disruption of local ecosystem. 1
It is also nateworthy that airports avoid�ir�ular design like this.Why? Because of it's effect
on flyinglmigratory animals.Althaugh the enviranmental study does mentian this, it is not at
all conclusive.
I would suggest Iooking at the impact in regards to o#species protected by fhe Migratory
Bird Trea#y Act as well as the Endangered Spe�ies A�t{E5A}. it wauld he a shame if the

consicler three things:
1. More parking on your siie: Please increase your parking by another 7flfl to 1,��0
spaces.While it's goad to incenti�ize the employees to take pu�lic transit, iYs also
importa�t to have enaugh facil€ties to make it convenient for them. It is much cheaper to
build more parking now than ta try to add to it later. Parking for visitars are included in 2
this figure.You are creaTing one of the coalest buildings on th�p�anet. People wifl want to
come and see it. If yau plan for enough parking far the�isitors,then it's not a headache
foranyone.
2. Homestead:PEease do N�T put a median along Homestead.We can palnt the street
and make it look�etter but it's much better to have easier a�cess to turn into the homes
and sEreets along Hamestead. Please don'f create more times a person has ta u-turn. 3
Function is much more important than a small median for aestheti�s. Paving and painting
the ciear lines an ihe street will be much more valuable and safer.
3. Height of yaur berms:ln tha Sunnyvale City Council pre-session, it sounded like your

Hello Cauncil mem3�ers:
I am a resident of t}�e girdland Neighborhood& although I am happy about the new I 1
icanic campus that Apple is bldg, I am concerned about a few things:
1. Increased traffi�on Wolfe and Homestead. I 2
2. Residential neighborhood parking spots in front oi our home will be more freq usecl...
which wifl be not only in�on�enient hut environmentally unsafe for us.
-- prime spots in fronf of our hauses 3
-- unknown�ehicles parked
-- blind spots while�acking up creating hazards, accidents.
-- speeding issues specially on iVightinagle & MeadowEark Lanes.
3. Noise and Air pollution etc.

12000+ emp�oyees they take adequate rneasures to o�ercome the frafficlairinoise 4
prok�Eem.
Here are suggestions:
1. Apple should N�T open a Peoplel8ikelAutomo�ile entrance ❑n Homestead Road.
This will deter Ap�le workforce to�ark in Birdland neighborhood and a�oid congestion on 5
Hamestead. Apple may only ha�e an emergency exit on Hornestead.
2. Similar s�ggestion on WoEfe road too because there would literally be n❑ roarr�for I 6
traf[i�to enterlexit 280 NIS d�ring peak hrs.
3. Some kind of Appra�ed& Controfled parking stickers issued far Birdland residents only
to park in our neighborhaod spots during peak hrs. between M-�. �
-- everyo�e else �an park for maximum 1 hr or so wit�o�af a sticker.
-- traffic patrolling carts will be reqd in that case.

❑ur neighborhood already has experience in this area with the Kaiser left t�rn situation,

Apple's plans will bring to us, as I ha�e read in the DEfR about parking on our streets if
proposed onsite fa�ilities are deemed inconvenient to employees, and they choase to
use Birdland as a workaround.7he projected pedestrian access p�int is also worrisome,

that���to 244 family vehicEes�ould be removed from WoEfe and Tantau at the peak AM
traff�hour. Less tra��,less emissions, Eess gridlock. Parents who don't have to drive their
�hildren to s�hool may he more inclined to get themselves tv work via other means then a
single-occupancy vehicle.Also a potentia{t�enefit for Apple employees and their children in
the area.
At a collection point away from the neighborhood s�hool{with each ha�e their own tra�c 2
congestion},such as Panama Park in Sunnyvale,schvvl buses could take children frarn the
Ortega and IVimitz ariendance areas ta the Mur�€ack-Portal, Christa McAuliffe K-8, and
CLIP�,a]Meyerholtz schaols.Thus many�ehides woufd avaid the WolfelHomestead
interse�tia�.
In 5anta Ckara,school buses could take children to Christa McAuliffe,GLIP,and I-kyde
Middle School,and thus a�oid using Tantau ta Ste�ens Creek{and reduce possibiliry of
Tantau�acking up tv Homestead].
5ince CLISQ already owns buses and employs drivers,the incremer�tal�ost to Apple ta
enable this a�tivity wouEd be small,estiinate less than$15,O�D per bus per year if you look
at rantal rates.A�ery reasonahfe cost on the scale of this project.
Apple should imrrzediately start working with CUSD to see how to implement this and other
traffi�mitigatian salutions.

Subject apple campus 2 project
Camment I have two prirnary concerns abou#this praject.
The first ane is related to the obviaus impact this project has on traffic congestian
throughout the day.This project wiil make an already conges#ed area worse all day,not
just during commute.7his has not be adequately addressed in the project.They�an 1
conduct their business as it is now with the buildings they already have and build
somet�ing smaller on the old HP site they pur�hased withaut needing ta�lose down a
major a�cess point to 280.{referring to Pruneridge Ave.}
The second,which is not mentioned in the impact report is regarcfing the second hand
smoke we will all pe expased to when we are wa�king, l�iking or driving pur�ars in the
area.Apple has a very strict anti-smoking policy for their employees.They require their
emplQyees to walk onto publi�property where they stand in"smoking�lutches"and
pollute the air.They aiso snuif out their cigarettes onto the sidewalk and lea�e them there
to be washed into the gutters and eventually into the Bay. I have pictures of the
employees smoking and fittering. I have reparted this problem to the City and it still
cantinues.7his is what is going on right now in the temporary l�uilding lo�ations within the 2
proposed construction zane. I am very con�erned abaut the publi�health risk now and in
the future.The second-hand smoke problem is bad enough wiTh the number of apple
emplayees already here. If this project is approved,the number af smokers will surely
increase. It is already a smoke-filled toxi�zane on Perimefer Rd.just abaut any time of
day. It wil[anly get worse around the whole site.Tantau Rd. is used as a bike a��ess
route for two schools �Cupertino H5 and Hyde Middle 5chool},5choo!chiEdren are riding
their bikes past these muitiple smoking sites afl alang Tantau and Valco Parkway.

I welcome a dynami��ompany in my area; I Ehink it will hring econami�health,but I lo�e

1}The Apple plans mention aver and o�er that Apple is cancerned to be a good cktizen of
Cupertina. It seems#o me that Cupertino will recei�e afl the benefits of your presence
and few of the prablems... the new Apple Gampus is on the Sunnyvale side of 28�and
that means the traific,congestion,noise will all affect residents of 5unnyva€e e�ery day. It 2
risks to tatally ct�ange the character af our neighborhoods.Additianally,there is a lot of
higher rise constructian occurring on the other side of 28a at Woife;that is going to also
gaing ta impact Wolfe raad.Therefore, I would like Apple to address its impact on
5unnyvale as well.
�} I cannot but dread the amount of traffic that will enter and fea�e Wolfe road all day
long;there is enough already...we cannot handle 7000 peo�le there,despite yaur efforts
to encaurage�usses and�iGyGles... (Yaur employees lives are too busy for that to be

I read the report and felt the oonsideration should look what bring in by the new campus.
The new�ampus is I+lOT using old technqlogy or DLD mindset.This will not he the many
o�er 10-year old�ars on ihe local highway,e�en in California today than whai the report
ciled;there are less family burning the woads in Cupertino than 10 years ago than what the
report stated;there are better noise control on 28{3 and 85 than what was 1012Q years agv.
As a Iong-term Cupertino resident,I helie�e the new campus will significantly improve the
energy use efficiency,hetter traffic planning and local services ihan just spreading the
offce building arvund the cities vr in Gupertinv.
For example such as the traffc,the google campus will only one majQr access of the 1
freeway 101 to accommodate o�er 1 dK employees wiihaut mu�h issue.The apple carnpus
2 has 3 major freeway accesses on highway280[Lawrence,Wolfe,and�eAnza},it should
be much easy t4 accommodate the changes{may not even inorease,just changes from
�eAnza exit fo 3 major exitsJ.
Similariy for puhlic service,it will help to better plan for the major site than spreading all
arnund the ciFy and let the employee to�nmmute via shuttle or persanal vehi�les araund
fhe sites.
Again,there are many pasiti�e impacts fram ihe sites than even!�an imagine if putting on

Currently Apple has abaut 1 S offices vn Bubb Rvad.I tvok a�esearch survey vn traffi�s
from 9:�Oam-10:OOam fromlto Kennedy Middle School tolfrom the Steven Creek 6i�d on
8ubh Rd, and showed that,five years aga,the average time is 3 minutes. Now,the time is
increased to 9 minu#es. If in the fimeframe of 5:g4pm-6:30pm of weekday,#he average
time is increased ta 13 minutes.
If the traffic model is ma�ed fram Bub�ta Wolf or Tantau,the situatian will�e much worse 1
as Ivts of traffics will happen in 6ath peak times and lunch time.
These rapidly increased tra��s will definiteiy damage the life quality of the Cupertino
�itizens ancf the fsllow community, be�ause we need to spend more time on the road,
breathe more polluted airs and li�e in a more noised en�ironment.
Research also shows that such large corporation should not be located in the area of highly
populafed residents,wherein Cupertino was well renowned for its worid-class quality of
living,res[ding and schooling. For example,Google is far from the resident areas, and Intel
is totally away from res€dent zones.
Ground 2:Apple's credibility is shalcy and citi�ens risk being fooled or misled on
en�ironment protections
Appke's Environmental lmpact Report is mostly prepared hy lawyers and other legal
professionals,but general publi�is mostfy not a lawyer.While Apple�an�ommit on each
detailed clause andlor term on paper,its credibility is shaky based on my personal
resear�h,experience,obsen+ation and dealings with Apple for Iong time.Apple has been
infringing my patents for long tirne,though responded my letters se�erai times, howe�er 2
Apple is fully knowledgea�le and experienced on how to play the legal games with feEfow
�itizens by taking advantages that Apple is a hundreds vf biflion cfollars'company while
general public of�Cupertir�o f2esident is only an individual person or family 6ady. If we
appr�ve this proje�t af Apple Campus 2, our citizens may rr�ost probably be foaled and
misled on the protection of our environments, be�ause once the environment is damaged, it
is almost impassible to reco�er it and Apple can always play the legal games with us by its
hundreds of billion dollars'reser�e and its large graup o#legal teams.

When I moved to this city in around 2DD0,Cupertino was among the best areas of quality
living,same standard as 5aratoga or Los Altas. But now,Cupertino is quickly transitioning
to a commercial-purpose city with too much traffics,pollutions,noises,strangers and 3
canstru�tions.
A ciry's prvsperity shvulti not re�y on specific campany's cammitment. Instead, it shauld rely
on its fellow citizens and its quality environments. I urge the�ity to remember this Law of
IVature.

Comment I ha�e backed up fflr thi�teen years to the property to be modified by Apple and I ha�e two
concerns:
1.Traffic. Pruneridge will he eliminated fram Tantau to Walff.We will have to go around
Apple for 1280 access w�i�h north_Apples plans call far 14,OC10 employees p[us additional
visitors and cammer�ial trucks. Can Homestead, Stevens Creek,Pruneridge{now twa
laned],Wolff and Tantau autside of the Apple boundary roads handle that Eoed?Can the
single lane 1280 entrances and exits handie that load? It's easy far Appie to expand their 1
bvundary streets but what abaut 5anta Clara, San Jase and Sunnyvale?Those huge buses
might�arry many Apple employees but they slow traffic and make wide tums.
2.Canstruction noise.We dan'f need Apples contractors to start work before 7 arri and that I
includes backing up trucks with their 05HA required laud baeping.Nor loud working afler 2
6pm. I dvn't watch much TV in the evenings but my neighbors do.
While not a majar concem to me, having all that greenery behind tall berms without access
daes not do a thing for us Apple neighbars. I 3

Very disheartening to an�e again see that a titan size corporation will arrogantly over ride the EIR pro�ess,selfishly short
circuiting the pubiic hearing process req�ired to obtain fair m�tigation for all EIR impacts which the App€e Campus 2 will impose an
our entire communfty and surrounding cities.
Upvn the receipt of applicativn and permit appra�als fvr the City af Cupertina-where both legak re�iew and then apprv�als had 9
been granted- frQm bath the Gity vf Cupertino and the SCVWD, I wauld like fv file a cvmplaint with the State vf Califarnia
overseeing ihe draft EIR for the Apple 2 Campus,now heing completed this manth by the City of Cuperiino,please consider this
as one of my written submission,my public comment,as part of that EIR draft re�iew process.
Thank you.

5uhject Planted Median�n E. Hamestead Road
Comment Let me first state that my wife and I are nof opposed to the new Apple Campus 2 across the
street,or the cEosure of Pruneridge A�enue,which will significantly increase the trafflc on E. 1
Homestead Road from Lawrence Expressway to Wolfe Road.
However,the 4ast Apple hrochure shows a planted medisn running down Homestead Road.
5ince gates 5-6-7 af the old HP complex will be eliminated,someone in their grea#wisdom
thinks that a turn lane is no longer necessary. Now,a tree line rrtedian may look nice,but
did anyone consider the incon�enience to the Sunnyvale hameowners being able to get in
or out of their own driveways7 It you want to head east toward Lawrence Expressway you 2
would ha�e fo go up to Wolfe to make the L!turn.And each time to turn into your driveway
you would have to go down to Tantau to make the U turn.This is ahsurd, and !am totally
appQSed to rema�ing the turn lanes. If I ha�e to ga ta all my neighbvrs ta get a petitian to
stop this [will do it.
AEsa, it is bad enough that a median is planned, but the bra�hure shaws trees planted in it.
A tree planted in a small med€an in 10 years will have raised the pa�ement,and will ha�e to 3
be removed.Then there is the maintenance of pruning and watering etc.This is nat a
practical idea.
The�est possihle solution to the traffic prohlem wvuld have been a direct vff ramp from 28a
into the Apple campus. With the�losure of Pruneridge the traffc will dramatically in�rease
on Hvmestead between Tantau and Wolfe with those people who want to a�cess 28fl. 50, 4
put the money thai would be spent on the pfanted median dQwn Homestead towards a
better soiution to the traffic prablerr�that wiil be created on Fiomestead.
Piease re�onsider t�e planned median on E. Hamesteaci Road. It is nat a gaod idea or I 5
worth the cast.

Comment Publlc easements along the#our sides of the carr�pus
One more comment:Given the very bad traffic impacts, I would suggest that Apple
provide pub[ic easements to facilitate pedestrians and cyclists tra�el along the 1
landscaped portions af its campus rather than on the b�sy streets.This means that the
security fen�es will be moved further away from the raad and closer to the spaceship so
that the public can enjoy new pathways and get some payback for the terrible traffic.

5uhje�t Apple EIR Report Cammen#s and Concerns
Camment Regarding the E1Ft repart and comrnentslcancerns about the Apple project.
As a clase neighbor on Judy Avenue, my biggest interest and concern is the irnpact on
the local area with the new Apple Campus,Main Street Cupertino and the current Loree
businesses. Haw is the city making sure that all the traftic{bicycles, pedestrians and
vehiclesJ will be managed and best served with different parties that have to work
tagether for ihe loca�area ta not end up as a traffi�nighimare.With se�eral buildings
already o�cupied the local area has already seen an immense in�rease in traffic that has
impact Qn day to day a�tivities.This before the Main 5treet has even started to be
implemented and the Apple Campus not�lose to even have the future number of
employees.
With lo�al businesses and residenis sa really c€ose, I sin�erely hope that the city will
make sure to praje�t rnanage and require de�elopers to pro�ide adequate infrastru�ture
im�rovements to off set the immense impact to the lacal area around Tantaul5tevens
Creek.Addltianally, [would like to make sure that the�ity has a master plan that in�olves
not only Apple and Main 5treet projects but Eake inta account the Loree business and 1
parking issues, highlmiddle and elementary s�hool traffi�issues in the Tantaul5tevens
Creek area and impact to residents.This will ha�e to work with pedestrian crossings,
bicycle lane impro�ements,sidewalk implementation on the south side of 5te�ens Creek
between Tantau and Judy Avenue,bus stops, red light flow etc.With t�e 5anta Clara
affice building construction on the�orner of Ste�ens Creek and 28fl off ramp,impa�t will
be immense and would be really appreciated if the city will make sure to update residents
to overall plans for this area and not just�ount on de�elopers making it happen.
Will the city provide traffic measures on surface streets outside of the Apple Campus
impact area so that Judy and Bret will be pravided with speed bumps to slow down the
increased thrqugh traffic? Even Calvert would benefit frpm speed reducing measures for
fhrough traffic.
Will the city leverage their impact an state and caunty traffi�jurisdictions sa that the on
ramp on Calvert A�enue ta sauth bound 28Q can be changed ac�arding to the EIR and
suggested measures to help impro�e tra�Fi�f€ow?
There are several sections where tree removal are listed as a potential impact. I have not
been a�le ta find further inFormation abaut impact of tree removal and what trees focated
exa�tly where is listed. Could already be listed-but as mentioned this doesn't appear to 2
be easy to locate. Eit�er please point to location or ex�lain what trees could be removed
on Tantau due to widening of road close to Wallca Parkway intersectian as wel!as on
Tantau close to the Homestead intersectian.
I would like ta make sure thaE there is an easy way ta contact the city wit�con�erns,
questions etc from now and thraughaut The canstru�tion in order for residents to get info,
submit camplaints and get clarification on issues that might arise.Currently,the AppEe 3
outreach naighhorhoad graup has�een responding ta questions etc-however,going
farward the�ity should have an easy access point sa that its residents can rea�h a city
offi�e to get updatas,su�mit complaints etc.

Comment Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the Apple 2 ❑EIFt. I am a resident af
5unnyvale's Chateau West neighborhaod,which is two blo�Ks away from the App1e 2
campus. I am also a professional planner with a Pha from the University of Cali#ornia, 1
Berkeley in transportation planning. My main professional and research interesis are
sustainable transporfation,walkability planning and muftimodaEism. I have se�en basic
�omments aut�ined below, followed by same references for the nurr�bers that [quate.
1. Spaceship design is interesting
I appreciate the in#eresting spaceship design of Apple 2 and believe that an iconic design
is appropriate for Apple's Headquarters. It will also tend to pro�ide a fo�al point for iourist
traific to the 5ilicon Valley area.This tourist interest and travei shauld be considered in 2
t�ath the transportation impact analysis as welf as area-wide planning. [n part�cular,there
is a need to consider how to aclivate the street by creating a mare visually interesting,
engaging and human-s�aEed experience;and hy reducing tratfic and street widths. {The
p�ans for expanding Cupertina Viffage,which is currently d�signed as a dawdy retail
blacK inside a sea of parking,should also take this into account.y
At present,the �]EIR is focused on commuter trips and overlooks effects on ambient
traific in terms af both tourist trips and mors circuitous travel patterns created by the I 3
superbloc€c campus.
2. Made splits don't match parking provision
7he DEIR indi�ates that 10,934 parking spa�es will be provided. For a campus
population of 14,2�0 emp[ayees,this represents an expectation that�3°l0 of employees
will use alternative modes{i.e.everything other ihan driving alone}. 4
This rate o#parking provision is a lat lower fhan the status quo rate of 28°Io alternative
made share and much lower than the DEIR goal of 34°la alternati�e made share.What
this discrepan�y means is that the prapasa! has toa much parking. If the de�eloper is
provfdes this�nuch parking,ft will en�aurage more people to drive alone to work.
3. Mode splits are woefulEq ur�ambitious
Authors of the ❑EIR suggest that the reader compare Apple's projected alternative mode
share to that of the wider county. Much of 5anta Clara County is lower density than this
neigY�barhood and is completely inaccessible by public transit or walking.This
camparisan is there#are a ridi�ulously law t�ar to use!
5
Please instead compare Apple's goal of 34°Io alternative mode share ta a�ouple of other
�orporate ar research�ampuses in the vicinity:
•Stanford University achieves a 46°Io aiternative mode share fQr faculty,staff and
administrators,and an impressive 88°Io alternative mode share for students!
•Genentech achie�es a 44°lo alternative mode share for its commuiers.
4.Traffi�and related impacts are completely unacceptable I 6
Lett
C110
cont.
A failure of the city and company to aim for anything close to these le�els will cause
Apple great expense in terms of excessive parking costs. It will also produce
unaccepta�le envirpnmental impaGts on the locaa�ommunity in terms of increased traffi�
volumes, increased traffic delay, air pollution emissions,lass of street life,community
severance.loss of pedestrian a�enity, and#7atential loss of life and liml7 fram fraffic
safety impacts.
The LQS grades forecast in the DEIR are completely unacceptable.Apple proposed to 6
address these problems by rnodifying roads through road widening.
Consider sending a small child acrass Walfe Road. Even at pedestrian signals,the road
cont.
is already excessi�ely wide to[he point that it produces cammunity severance effects and
serious safety concerns for more vulnerable road users.Widening this road e�en further
is not an accepfable safution.
The mitigations are therefore simultaneously�nrealistic and unambitious. It is N�T
acceptable to widen raads that are already excessively wide,and to close roads that are
used by the lacal community and 6usiness customers.
5.Current incenti�e Ea dri�e and the need far parking-�as�-out
❑ne mitigation that is currently inadequate is excessive free parking that gives Apple
employees an incentive ta drive to work.
This problem is�artly created by the City of Cupertino which provides minimum parking
standards far mQSt deve€apments and parking guidelines for Planned ❑evelopments fhat
are based on the status quo parking ratio.As a result of high minimum parking standards
and status quo guidelines.em�loyers like Apple are discouraged from striving toward 7
more ambitious rr�ode shares since they have to constru�t parking at the status quo rate
anyway.Also,employees are encouraged to dri�e afone to work;VTA transit ridership is
undermined;and residents of both Cupertino and Sunnyvale suifer the consequen�es of
poor regional access,poor air quality and pervasive traffic congestion.
In any�ase.Apple's current pricing structure for parking and alternati�e transportation is
too intlexible and too iaw. For example,thase who commute#o Apple by bicycle receive a
$20 subsidy per month. By camparisQn, Genente�h's parking-cash-out program provides
$4 per day{in 2006}ta all employees who commute to work by alternative modes o#any
sort.
B.Cupertino Village south entrance should remain open
The mitigation strategy of closing the west entry to Cupertino Village will result in more
extreme traffic on the norih side of this shopping�enter alQng Homestead Road. Both
entrances are extensively used by customers to Cupertino Village{particularly on
weekends and evenings when Apple employees will not even be around7.
It is impQrtant that the�ampus camplemer�ts rather than undermines the success of local g
businesses.This entrance ta Cupertino Village should rernain open. Furthermore, Appie
could allow Cupertino Vilfage ta share its parking lot{for a fee] on the west side of the
campus on weekends.
This situation is exa�er�ated by the fact that Cupertino Village is also pfanning to
undergo expansion.Has#his cumulative eifect has not besn taken into accaunt?
7. Pruneridge should remain open
Part of the existing traffic prablem in this area is�aused by superblock style which tends
to siphon all traffi�onto wide main raads.thereby reducing pedestrian amenity and
safely. 9
Apple 2 proposes to exacerbate this problem by closing Pruneridge Road and�realing
an even larger superblack.This road cl�sure is unacceptabEe because it reduces

Comment Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
The Cupertina Administratian shouEd recommend to the City Cauncil that it establish a Citizen
Oversight Committee for the Mitigation Monitoring and Repvrting Pragram.The Cvmmittee members
�vuld be appainted by t�e City Coun�il.The purpvse of the Citizen Qversight Committee would be 1
re�iew{quarterly}the status af the implerrtentatian of Yhe mitigatian measures and monitor
comp[iance with the conditions of appro�al. For example,the EIR proposes that"peak trip caunts"
trigger implementaf€an of TDNE measures.The Citizen d�ersight Committee should re�iew this data
and status of the TQM measures.
Reduced Density Proje�t A[ternative
Did the City direct the E{R consultant to undertake the same Transportation Impact AnaEysis of the
transportation impacts resulting fram a Reduced Density Project Alternative sa that residents and
policymakers�an directfy campare Fhe transportation impa�ts from the proposed project to the 2
project alternative?IF nvt,why not?Many of the propased mitigativn measures for the transportation
impa�ts are outside vf the autharity oi the City and,thus,the impacts remain signifi�ant and
una�oidable.
Bicy�Ee Transpartation Facilities
If the City desires to encaurage alternative commute vptivns fvr Apple(and other emplvyers}, has
the City or will the City consider installing No Parking afong Milfer Avenue south af Ste�ens Creek
Bl�d.ta Calle de 8arcelona in arder fo instafl Ciass fi bike lanes in both directions7 You will not 3
enovurage Apple employees to cammute by bioycle from the sfluth of oampus without dedicated
bicycle transportatiQn facilities tt�ere. It is currently dangerous to bicycle vn Miller an that stretch.
Will the City propose a condition of approval requiring Apple to charge for parking to provide an
incentive for employees ta bicycle or use a shuttle7 The proposed bicycling commute target from 2°Io 4
to 5°/o will not make an appreciable difference in reducing L05 impacts at the nearf�y interse�tions.
TDM Measures
Google has a fleet of vehicles{efe�tric and hybrid}a�ailable an campus for those emplayeas who
use transiUshuttle ta commute to work so that if these employees ha�e to use a vehi�le during the
day for an amergency ar ather need{doctar�isit7,they still are not required to drive to work.
5
Will the City Administrativn r,ansider a TpM measure that involves Apple procuring park-and-rfde Ivts
away from the�ampus and using shuttles between the oampus and these lots?{There appear tv be
shuttles for transif users,but not for dri�ers.)
❑pen 5pacelPubli�Park
How did tha City determine that a 1.7 acre puhlic park was adequate mitigation for the loss of open
spa�e resulting from the praject?Is it a formula that is applied per a�reage Iost?
Any puhlic park established to mitigate the loss of open space frnm the project should be located in
the�i�inity af fhe project. �The mitigation measure should be rele�ant to the en�ironmental impact, 6
praportionate ta the impact,and be in the�i�inity.)The mitigation measure aption to"agree to
purchase,designate,and dedicate to fhe City 1.1 acres elsewhere in the City as Parks and apen
5pace . . . provided the land wauld be publicly accessible"should not 6e an optian. Cupertinp
residents along Faothill Expressway,far example,should not benefit from a neighharhood park due
to the impacts residents in east Cupertino ara experiencing.

Comment Access routes{N15#28Q.Wolfe and Homestead Rds.cannot support access to same
140�0 employees on a daily basis during�ommute hours without severe�onsequences.
Even assuming 80°Io will use mass transitlbi�ycies,will require more than 1fl0�buses daily
and 3�OD additional�ars resulting in traffic gridlock on#28a,Wolfe and Homestead Rds. 1
Birdlandl5unny�ale residents will be denied ac�ess to these�onduits.Can't someone do
the math????. Limit the Apple headquarter employee papulation ta 4,aflD. Cupertino can
stilf re�eive its tax re�enue, but 5unny�ale residents will he able to get in and out of their

5ubject 6iGycle facilities on Tantau in Apple Camp�s 2 DEIR
Camment In regarci to fhe Apple Campus 2 E�R.
In general I arrz concerned with bicy�ling issues on Tantau and Pruneridge. I bicycle on
these roads daily to commute to work,and to get around Cupertina, Sunnyvale, and 5anta 1
Clara.
First of all,l"ar�tau is an impartant connecting street in the bicy�le network going from
5unnyvale and Santa Clara into Cupertino. It is a relatively quiet street, �ut it makes the
connection across highway
28fl witho�t a freeway inter�hange,so it is�ery suitable for 6icy�ling. Beyond#he Apple
Campus 2 site it continues as Tantau [in Cupertino}and Quail (in Sunny�ale}, connecting
antv law�alurne neighborhaod streets which are ideal far bi�ycling. It is im�ortant tv
maintain Tantau as a low-stress st�eet for bicycling.
Currently there are bike lanes on Tantau from Hor-r�estead to Ste�ens Creek. 2
The pian suggests rernoving hike lanes where Tantau crosses Calabazas Creek, replacing
them with a shared bikelped facility a#fhat point.This is a had idea,artd a definite
downgrade far the bike facility. I think it wauld be bett�r ta either narrow or reduce lanes,
widen the bridge, or add a pedesfrian bridge on one side so that bike lanes could be
maintained the full length of Tantau,and nat ahruptPy introduce a shared bikelped lane in
the middle of that sectian. E�an a minimum,5 faot bike lane and 5 foot sidewa€k woufd be
betfer than the proposed 10 foot shared space. This proposal is illustrated in Figure II1-17c,
page 57 in the Plan Description document.
A second comment is that at the carner nf Homestead and Tantau, going soutY�on Tantau,
the lane is constricted by the pork-chop island at that point.This is illustrated in Fig III-20c.
Any�yclists going through that,either from Quai!anto Tantau,ar turning left fram
Homestead must share the iane all the way through the in#ersection. It would he better to
remave ar red�ce the width of the park-chap isEand on SW�arner, sa that bvth a traffic lane
and a bike lane could fit at that poinf. This would make the intersec#ion safer for bicyclists
heading south an Tantau from that paint. This would be a b�neiicial improvement ior 3
bicyclists using the site, and far other cyclists as well.
It is worth considering modernizing that intersection by completely removing the right turn
pork-chop island from Homestead anto Tantau.This generally makes intersections safer for
hoth pedestrians and cyclists,and the pork-chop does not add mu�h e�cien�y in heavy
traffc situations.

Comment As a persan invalved with the development of Cupertino starting back in i958 I am
seripusly cancerned that we do our best when we make majpr changesladditipr�s ta the
�ommunity. I know we've prized the creation our 2 IQCai school boys started and wo�ld
hope that this majar project will be a positive creation.
TrafficlCirculation...that is my�on�ern. i'm not an expert an traffic so I'll leave the salutions
needed to the experts and the cities of Cupertino and 5unnyvale to salve the dilemma. 1
Db�ious{y highways outside the jurisdiction of the�ities will need to he considered and rnay
require cooperatian. I da remember when VaklcA was proposed that one requiremen#
in�alved an overpass being created to accommadate anticipated traffic. It appears there will
need ta be some creati�e solutians and !laok forward ta their implementation.
I trust Apple would not want to create a sifuatian that is not in the hest interest of the entire
community.

Apple Campus 2. Apple si�s tleariy put [uper'L'in� ❑n the rnap ar�und the w�rlr�.
Last year I eampleted the Grand 5lam of tennis (U5 apen, French Open, Wimbledan and
Australian Open] as a spectator o�er a 5 year period. I ne�er expected to see sa many of
the yvung generativn walking arvund prvudky flashing their iPhane and mare re[ently iPad.
And suprisingly same of them knew where Cupertino was betause ❑f Apple.
It would be a shame if Apple wauld e�er lea�e Cupertin❑ and the 5tate ❑f California. Apple
belongs in Siliton Valley and the city of Cupertino.
The financial impact going fvrward can ❑nly be a majar plus for the city.

Subject: Apple�Campus
I have Eived in the Cupertino. 5unnyva�e area over 3� years.
I hear there may he some�oncerns on whether#he City Cauncil should a�prove the Apple 2 p�oject.
�ften times at various times of the day, in the area of existing Apple Cupertirsa facilities, I have
r�at experienced any unacceptahle traffic canditians.
Apples emplayee �using program naw and cammitted far App1e 2's future will cantinue to keep individual
cars off Cupertino streets.
Apple has cantinued to keep me and t supp�s�, other Cup�rtino residents with their plans far th�Apple 2
com�lex. I�etails f�r supparting the i�ca!economy with jabs,
supporting �QCaI businesses, supporting lo�al gavernments and neighborhaods services as well as
suppartir�g the local �ommunity such as I have ne�er seen provided hy any businesses in the past. Na doubt
that Apple has aFsa pro�ided �omplete commitments far the above ta the City Council.
J�bs for thase who huild the new cgmplex, re�en�e far laca! he�sinesses wha serve Apple and it's emplayees
and praperty taxes aione are�a#id reasons#o supp�rt
wf�at in my opinian wiil k�ecame the highlight point far Cupertina.
The image that ane af the warids t�p cQrparations has it's headquarters lacated in Cupertina wilP surely in�ite
other compan�es to cansider Cupertina as well.
Fo�the ahove, I hape the Cupertina City Caun�il wili strangly support aRd ga aY�eacf with the Appie 2 project.
There by answerir�g the question, "how can we N�T
support the approval"?
