BACKGROUND On June 29, 2010, the Planning Commission recommended approval of modifications to the Kaiser Hospital Downtown Medical Campus Precise Plan and approved a Planned Community (PC) Permit for Kaisers Phase 1 Hospital Replacement Project. The EIR was originally certified by Planning Commission on June 24, 2003 and City Council adopted an ordinance approving the Kaiser Precise plan on September 8, 2003. The Kaiser Master Plan involves phased demolition of all existing 15.6 acre Kaiser campus buildings, except for the 749 stall Veterans Boulevard parking structure. The amended Phase 1 plan recently approved by Planning Commission is for a smaller 149 bed- 280,000 square foot hospital, a 16,000 square foot Central Utility Plant, on- site improvements with landscaping and pedestrian pathways, and offsite improvements including changes to Walnut Street, Veterans Boulevard, and Maple Street. The Permits' conditions require the developer to construct certain improvements to provide services to the new structures, including roadway realignments, new driveways, relocated utility services, new sidewalk curbs and gutters, fire department connections, drainage facilities, crosswalks, a bus shelter, landscaping, and other typical site improvements within the public right of way. The Building, Infrastructure and Transportation Department have approved the plans for the improvements submitted by the developer's design consultants, HOK and BKF Engineers. Inspections will be performed by City Engineering staff during construction to insure compliance with the permit conditions. The owner is required to post Faithful Performance and Payment Bonds, each in the amount of $4,991 ,981.00 A complete copy of the Construction Agreement is available for review in the City Clerk's Office. ALTERNATIVES Council may choose not to approve the improvement agreement which would be contrary to the recommendations provided by the PC Permit.
