<br />In addition, this component proposes to attain LEED BD&C (Building Design and
<br />Construction) Gold Certification. (Plan Sheet G3.12, 8/5/24; Leading Edge, “901 El
<br />Camino, Sustainability Narrative,” undated)
<br />The Commercial Component anticipates a construction period of approximately 28
<br />months. Impacts related to construction are discussed in relevant sections of this document.
<br />The main office building entry would be through the lobby on the proposed Franklin Street
<br />extension side of the building. Another entrance would be to the Teen Center/multi-purpose
<br />space, also on the proposed Franklin Street extension side of the building via
<br />Chrysanthemum Plaza. Elevators would be located near the main building lobby and
<br />reception areas; three stairwells would be provided. (Plan Sheet A2.01,8/5/24)
<br />Refuse and recycling would be in one enclosed trash room within the building, accessible
<br />to waste service trucks at street level off Winklebleck Street (between the loading dock and
<br />the garage driveway). Generator, sub-stations, PG&E Meter and Distribution, chemical
<br />storage, electrical, and fire command and fire equipment rooms would be accessible on the
<br />ground floor. (Plan Sheet A2.01,8/5/24)

<br />920 Shasta Street Housing Component:
<br />The housing applicant proposes to construct a five-story residential building with
<br />four levels of residential over one level of ground-floor parking (Plan Sheet G000, 10/6/23;
<br />Abode Communities, David Baker Architects).
<br />The proposed 35,072 SF Housing Component site (approximately 0.805 acre) is comprised
<br />of two parcels, which are currently occupied. The smaller parcel, at the southwestern
<br />corner of the site (122 Buckeye Street), contains a one-story residence and a detached
<br />accessory structure; the remainder of the site (920 Shasta Street) contains a five-building
<br />storage facility with drive aisles for loading/unloading, and manager’s residential unit.
<br />(Plan Sheet G000 and A000, 10/6/23; Vesting Tentative Map, Luk & Associates, Sheets
<br />C-3.0.1 and C-4.1, 10/5/23). The housing applicant proposes to demolish and remove the
<br />existing onsite structures and surface parking and construct a new residential building
<br />comprised of 100 percent affordable housing, with 11 studio units, 38 one-bedroom units,
<br />34 two-bedroom units, and 16 three-bedroom units, for a total of 100 units, including the
<br />manager’s unit. The building would be shaped in a central courtyard configuration. (Plan
<br />Sheets G000 and G001, 10/6/23). The proposed 920 Shasta Street Housing Component
<br />would include approximately 70,080 SF of residential space. Other proposed
<br />improvements include an approximately 1,006 SF lounge, 464 SF community room, 440
<br />SF coworking space, and 252 SF flex-meet space. This component would also include an
<br />approximately 3,340 SF open courtyard space roughly in the center of the second floor
<br />(“podium court”) and an approximately 593 SF sky deck on the fifth floor. Onsite
<br />amenities would include property management offices, a fitness room, and a laundry
<br />room/lounge. (Plan Sheets A100, A120, A150, A160, and G001, 10/6/23)
<br />The Housing Component would provide a total of approximately 74 parking spaces for
<br />vehicles, including four Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessible spaces, all at
<br />ground level. All parking spaces would accommodate electric vehicles, with 60 percent
<br />(approximately 44 spaces) designated as Level 1 charging station spaces and 40 percent
<br />(approximately 30 spaces) designated as Level 2 charging station spaces. (Plan Sheet
<br />A100, 10/6/23) Vehicle access to project component parking would be via a driveway on
<br />Shasta Street near the middle of the building. Secured, onsite parking for 112 bikes would
<br />be provided adjacent to the ground-level entry court. The bike room would have an area
<br />that includes outlets for e-bike charging and an area for a fix-it station. Bike racks for
