The Planning Commission is pleased to invite your participation in a Public Hearing concerning the following:
WHO: 5700 Hannum Owner, LLC c/o Lincoln Property Company (the Applicant) / Hannum, LLC c/o Howard Sherwood (the Property Owner)
WHAT: Consideration of a Comprehensive Plan, Density and Other Bonus Incentives, Zone Code Map Amendment, General Plan Map Amendment, and Extended Construction Hours Request to allow development of a mixed-use residential and commercial project on an approximately 2.23-acre site (Project Site) located at 5700 Hannum Avenue in the Commercial Regional Business Park (CRB) Zone. The Project Site is currently developed with an existing 30,672 square foot, two-story office building and surface parking. The proposed development includes a new 6-story (up to 78-feet in height) mixed-use building with two semi-subterranean levels, consisting of 309 residential units (including 27 Very Low-Income units) and 5,600 square feet of retail space. There is a total of 7,507 square feet of publicly accessible open space, 19,526 square feet of private open space, and 27,123 square feet of residential common open space.
The mixed-use building is constructed on top of two semi-subterranean vehicle parking levels with additional at grade parking on the first floor. There are 428 vehicle parking spaces (399 residential, 6 guest, and 23 commercial). There are two vehicle access points: residential only on Buckingham Parkway and commercial and residential on Hannum Avenue. The Project also contains 92 bicycle spaces: 11 short-term and 81 long-term. The Zone Code Map Amendment and Comprehensive Plan changes the Site’s zoning from CRB to Planned Development (PD) and provides development standards specific to the PD Zone. The General Plan Map Amendment changes the land use designation from Regional Center to General Corridor and the Density and Other Bonus Incentives allows increased density with a required percentage of units designated as income restricted.
