November 12, 1985 City Council meeting FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None DESCRIPTION: On September 3, 1985 , the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the Great Western Savings application to use a gated, attendant controlled parking lot for the office project being constructed . at Dublin Boulevard and Golden Gate Drive. The Great Western Savings office building will have approximately 67, 550 square feet of space in a 3 story structure on an approximately 3 .1+ acre site. The parking lot will have 230 spaces . The Planning Commission, on a 3 to 1 vote, denied the application because of : 1 . Potential traffic back up on Golden Gate Drive from cars waiting to get past the attendant booth and gate. 2 . Restricted access to required parking would conflict with the Zoning Ordinance requirement that the parking spaces be continuously accessible to any and all visitors to the site . 3 . Potential shift of project-related parking onto the public . street (Golden Gate Drive) created by the restricted access to the off-street parking spaces . On September 12 , 1985, Mr. Gilbert R. Reyes , Construction Manager for Great Western Savings, appealed the Planning Commission action. On October 7 , 1985, Ms . Maria Pracher, legal representative for Great Western Savings, requested that the item be continued for one month to allow her to review the situation. Staff recommends that the City Council continue the item until the November 12, 1985, City Council meeting. _ - ----------------------------------- HMENT ITEM NO. 62- ATTAC
