He said that the CHANGE IN SPECIFIC PLAN DENSITY - proposed amendment would allow Continued. Genentech to build Phases I and II of the program up to 248,000 square feet. He continued, when this is completed the City may assess the actual impacts to ascertain compat- ibility with the EIR estimates and that requests for further construction up to 500,000 square feet would be considered in the light of the further environmental assessment. He said that he had discovered this morning that there was significant disagreement between the parties and gave the Council a redraft of three paragraphs that were in dispute in the document. He said that Genentech wanted the scope of develop- ment to clearly indicate their goal of 500,000 square feet. He said that Genentech would be subject to further assessment and whether this would be compatibile with peak hour traffic. He said that the problem between the parties had to deal with the mitigations required, not only for the added density proposed, but the original 224,000 square feet. He said that the City had to be assured it would not lose mitigation of the 224,000 square feet by the adoption of the amendment. He spoke of the other impacts from the added density, such as on the sewer line. He spoke in detail of the R&D oper- ation utilizing a flex-time arrange- ment whereby employees arrive and depart on an unscheduled basis which would reduce peak hour traffic impacts. Herman H. Fitzgerald, Esq. explained in detail the disagreement between the parties on paragraphs 4 and 5 of the Agreement., i.e., mitigation in relation to Parcel A and other parcels in the project, disproportior e assessments, no further amendment to the OPA which would reduce the density without owner representation. 12/29/81 Page 2 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN A RESOLUTION - Continued. City Manager Birkelo said that Genentech, Inc. was saying, don't reduce our 500,000 square feet and don't change our RD zoning to something else without Genentech's agreement to the change. Discussion followed on the contents of paragraph 4 and 5, eliminating some of the language, eliminating paragraph 4, who would pay for the first mitigation, increased density, deleting the reference to 13a, no disproportionate assessment to the parties involved, the Oyster Point Feasibility Study, the traffic miti- gation, the grade separation design, a pay back in the event of contrib- utions from other companies buying into a local share, etc. City Manager Birkelo distributed further changes to the wording in paragraph 4 and 5 making reference to the mitigation contained in the EIR.
