I. BACKGROUND The subject application consists of two parcels. The southernmost subject property, 5980 Sunol Boulevard, contains a vacant, dilapidated single-family home and is located within the North Sycamore Specific Plan (NSSP) area. The City Council adopted the North Sycamore Specific Plan in June, 1992. In September of 1992, the NSSP area was pre-zoned with several PUD designations reflecting the NSSP land use plan but without a PUD development plan for any portion of the Specific Plan. The Specific Plan area was annexed to the City in June of 1993. Zoning for the 5980 Sunol Boulevard property as specified in the North Sycamore Specific Plan is the Planned Unit Development -Office (PUD-O) District. The NSSP designated three parcels for office development. The subject development plan application is the second submitted for one of these office designated parcels. The 6088 Sunol Boulevard office building, located at the southeast corner of Sunol Boulevard and Sycamore Road, was the first office development in the NSSP area. The northernmost subject property, 5998 Sunol Boulevard, is zoned Office District and previously contained a small office building that was demolished in 1997 and the property has been vacant since that time. The applicant, Nick Kavayiotidis, purchased the 5980 Sunol Boulevard property and has an option to purchase the 5998 Sunol Boulevard property. He wishes to demolish the vacant dwelling and construct a new office building and related site improvements on both parcels. Although the zoning designations for both parcels would permit office uses, the 5998 Sunol Boulevard property would be rezoned to Planned Unit Development -Office (PUD-O) District to create a consistent zoning designation for both properties. PUD development plan approval its required to construct the new building and related site improvements. The applicant would later process a lot line adjustment to merge the two properties into one parcel. PUD rezoning and development plan applications are subject to review and approval by the City Council, following recommendation on the plan by the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission's recommendation on the proposed PUD rezoning and development plan will be forwarded to the City Council for review and final decision. Lot line adjustment applications are subject to review and approval by the Zoning Administrator. II.
