Environmental Impact Report, provide comments on the design, and continue the
hearing to April 19, 2018.
Report Summary
This report is to support the first ARB review of the formal application for the proposed Palo
Alto Downtown Parking Garage at 375 Hamilton Avenue, currently in use as a public parking lot.
Environmental review of the project, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA), is underway. The Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) is scheduled to be
published in late February for a 45-day public comment period.
In 2017:
City Council determined the number of parking spaces for the public garage, and
established the direction for a Public Facilities (PF) zoning code text amendment, and

The Planning and Transportation Commission (PTC) held an EIR scoping session.
More recently, on January 22, 2018, Council briefly discussed the potential for the use of
mechanical lifts for the Downtown Parking Garage; mechanical lifts are now under
consideration in response to Council’s request to study their use in public parking garages.
On January 31, 2018, the PTC reviewed the proposed modifications to the Public Facilities (PF)
Development Standards and recommended approval. The PTC did not provide comments
specific to the Public Safety Building Project Draft EIR, which includes analysis of the proposed
PF zoning code text amendment.
The report for the second ARB meeting will provide a recommendation and complete
Architectural Review (AR) findings and approval conditions in a draft Record of Land Use Action
for ARB consideration. Comprehensive Plan Policies relevant to the project are cited in
Attachment D, and code-required Architectural Review Findings are provided in Attachment E.
Project approval by the City Council would be based upon AR findings following Council action
on a Final EIR, as well as Council action on an ordinance containing the proposed PF zoning
changes.

Project Description
The project is the construction of a new parking garage at 375 Hamilton Avenue (indicated on
site context map, Attachment A) to provide 338 automobile spaces (337 spaces plus 1 space
serving 550 Waverley Street) and a 2,188 square foot retail space at 375 Hamilton Avenue. The
garage would maximize the number of standard parking spaces per Council direction, while
providing limited ground floor retail space fronting Waverley Street. The structure would
contain five parking levels above ground and one parking level below ground. The project
objectives, as described in the DEIR, are as follows:
1. To increase the number of parking spaces within the downtown to maximize the
accessibility and convenience to downtown visitors and workers
2. To provide a parking structure that includes neighborhood-serving retail and street frontage
to contribute to the economic vitality of the downtown and the City
3. To provide a parking structure that incorporates a pedestrian- and bike-friendly layout
4. To provide a parking structure that is visually appealing and compatible with the
Downtown character and nearby historic buildings.
The architect’s project description (Attachment B) provides an overview, concept statements,
and descriptions of materials, site development and landscape design intent for the project site.
The DEIR provides a project description as well, and application information is available online
at https://paloalto.buildingeye.com/planning (instructions are provided in report Attachment
F). For easily accessible project information, including the DEIR, please see the Public Works
Department webpage, entitled ‘Downtown Parking Garage’:
http://www.cityofpaloalto.org/downtowngarage. Hardcopy plans are provided to the ARB and
the designs are viewable on the City’s webpages as indicated in Attachment F.
Requested Entitlements, Findings and Purview:
The following discretionary applications are being requested:
Architectural Review – Major (AR): The process for evaluating this type of application is
set forth in Palo Alto Municipal Code (PAMC) 18.77.070. AR applications are reviewed by
the ARB and recommendations are forwarded to the Planning & Community
Environment Director for action or may be forwarded to City Council for action, which is
the case for this project. AR projects are evaluated against specific findings. All findings
must be made in the affirmative to approve the project. Failure to make any one finding
requires project redesign or denial. The findings to approve an AR application as set
forth in PAMC Chapter 18.76 are provided in Attachment E.
2
Packet Pg. 13
City of Palo Alto
Planning & Community Environment Department Page 6
Zoning Amendment: The Council is requested to amend the development standards for
the Public Facilities (PF) Zone District for parking garages and Essential Facilities in
Downtown and California Avenue Business Districts, to allow the parking garage above
and below grade to encroach into the 20 foot street yard setbacks and 10-foot interior
setback, and to allow greater height and floor area than otherwise allowed by PF zone
development standards. Because the PF development standards include reference to
special setbacks, amendments to the PF zone will also allow for Council approval of the
requested encroachment into special setback along Hamilton Avenue. Special setbacks
described in PAMC Chapter 20.08 are reflected on the associated special setback map,
and encroachments into special setbacks are allowable by Variance approval, as set
forth in PAMC Chapter 18.76. The PTC held a public hearing and recommended the
proposed amendment on January 31, 2018.
Zoning Issues
The zoning compliance table (Attachment C) provides a summary of requested exceptions to
the PF Zone development standards and special setback on Hamilton Avenue. The proposed
legislative changes to the PF Zone development standards are intended to address these
exceptions, as described later in this report.
Analysis1
Preliminary ARB Review Feedback
ARB meeting minutes from the September 7, 2017 Preliminary Review of the project are
provided via this link: https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/61857. The
ARB’s comments during the Preliminary Review are not binding. The minutes reflect that staff
transmitted a verbal summary of the HRB’s review of the preliminary designs on August 24,
2017.
The ARB meeting minutes reflect that questions about the adjacent AT&T building and
Episcopal Church were answered during the preliminary review. Additionally, a board member
asked about how owners of the Waverley address properties would access Lane 21 for service
and use trash bins. The project manager from Public Works noted that the garage will have a
parking way finding system to help guide people to open spaces so they will be able to tell on
each floor which spaces are available. The plan set sheet ARB 6.1 provides images of the
parking guidance system, as well as refuse and delivery vehicle turning arcs. An ARB member
asked if the 10-foot pedestrian alley could be reduced to five feet in order to increase the
setback along Hamilton, to consider creating a ‘micro plaza’, noting a missed opportunity to
connect pedestrians to Hamilton Avenue. The ARB member also stated that the Church across
1 The information provided in this section is based on analysis prepared by the report author prior to the public
hearing. The Architectural Review Board in its review of the administrative record and based on public testimony
may reach a different conclusion from that presented in this report and may choose to make alternative findings. A
change to the findings may result in a final action that is different from the staff recommended action in this
report.

Planning & Community Environment Department Page 7
Waverly doesn’t seem to have been considered and noted that the stair tower on the corner is
an opportunity for an enclosed vertical space. The applicant has taken the comments into
consideration.
Replacement Trees and Landscape Plan
The Landscape Plan shown on plan sheet ARB 4.1, Landscape Schematic Plan, reflects the tree
and shrub sizes, quantity and species. Plan sheet ARB 4.2, Materials and Plant Selections,
provides images of the selected trees, vines shrubs and perennials. The project includes
removal of one protected tree, a mature Coast Live Oak, and six other ‘non-protected’ trees on
the property at 375 Hamilton Avenue. The Draft EIR contains a mitigation measure requiring
the planting of three native oaks “on site” – in the Hamilton Avenue right of way – to
compensate for the removal of the one protected oak tree. The CEQA mitigation measure for
the loss of the one protected oak has been reviewed by the City’s Urban Forester.
Though not a CEQA impact, the removal of six other “regulated” trees from the site also
requires replacement on site or within a defined radius of one-half mile to ensure “no net loss”
of tree canopy, in accordance with the Urban Forest Master Plan (policy 1G, page 142).
Compliance with this policy can be achieved via planting several additional trees on Waverley
Street. In addition to the three oaks on Hamilton, the existing Gingko street trees on Waverley
will be protected (while the Gingko on Hamilton will be removed), another street tree is
proposed near the ATT building, and three columnar Gingko trees are proposed in the
pedestrian alley behind the Waverley Street-facing buildings. It appears there is room for a few
additional street trees on Waverley Street; the trees would need to be companionable to the
existing Gingko trees. Discussion of additional right of way plantings, and the potential for tree
plantings (in addition to the low growing (2’ tall) Yarrow) on the Lane 21 side will be included in
the second staff report for formal ARB review. Staff notes that the image on sheet ARB 3.8
entitled “Eye Height View of Alley from Lane 21” reflects an absence of tall greenery; whether
trees can be accommodated to enliven the alley or installation of vines with the post and
stainless steel wire system with green screen will be explored in the coming weeks prior to the
ARB’s second formal hearing of the project. Standard approval conditions will be included in
the draft RLUA regarding replacement of the non-protected trees. The table 3-1 Tree Canopy
Replacement Standard is provided on the following page, for reference.

Design, Height, Shadow Studies and Lighting
The garage design includes substantially open sides to provide natural ventilation for all levels
except the basement level, which is mechanically ventilated. The façade features a two-story
base supporting the upper floors of the garage. The base’s rhythm relates to the arcade of the
adjacent post office and creates areas for bench seating along Hamilton, and entries into the
retail space along Waverley. The base of the building also assists in the transition to the two-
story, commercial buildings along Waverley Street.
The height of the parking structure is proposed to be 49’-10” to the top of rail on the fifth level
parking deck, 58’6” to the top of the PV structure, and 67 feet to the top of the elevator
penthouse. The height of the AT&T building at 75 feet serves as a backdrop to the proposed
building. The height of the corner staircase enclosure appears to be slightly lower than 58 feet.
The plan set includes shadow studies, photometric plans, exterior nighttime lighting
perspectives and luminaire cut sheets. The architect’s design statement regarding the building’s
integration into the Downtown context is provided as Attachment B.
Parking, EV and PV
The plans provide a ‘parking stall summation chart’. A total of 338 spaces provided for
automobile parking would include eight accessible spaces, 86 electric (EV) vehicle charging
stalls (19 of which will be installed initially), nine stalls serving the proposed retail space, and
2
Packet Pg. 16
City of Palo Alto
Planning & Community Environment Department Page 9
one stall serving 550 Waverley. A long-term bike storage room is proposed at Hamilton Avenue
near the driveway. Short term bicycle storage is proposed at the sidewalk near the retail space.
The building will be designed with infrastructure to allow for the future installation of
photovoltaic (PV) panels mounted on a structure above the top parking deck.
Setbacks and Service to Waverley Street Buildings
The proposed building would extend to the property line at the Hamilton Avenue and Waverley
Street edges as well as the interior side lot line shared with the AT&T building. The line of the
building’s structure encroaches five feet into the street setbacks. However, the architectural
cladding/finishes, benches and planters will encroach to the property lines along these streets.
A ground floor retail space is proposed to front Waverley Street. The building would be set back
10 feet from the north property line, shared with 560 Waverley, with openings to allow natural
ventilation into the parking garage, and light to reach the existing windows at 560 Waverley.
The existing parking lot serves restaurant and retail uses along Waverley Street and provides
rear‐entry parking to the CVS Pharmacy to the west (352 University Avenue) via Lane 21. In
order to maintain access for utilities, services and secondary means of egress for the existing
buildings fronting on Waverley Street, the garage would be set back sixteen feet from the
shared property line at this location.
Automobile Circulation
The primary site ingress/egress is proposed on Hamilton Avenue near the south corner of the
lot. A secondary vehicular exit is proposed at Lane 21. Ingress to the garage from Lane 21 would
only be permitted in the event that the Hamilton Avenue access is restricted. Vehicle access will
be restricted in the new alley to service vehicles. The alley will be enhanced with architectural
paving, new planting, benches and lighting. Vehicle access will be restricted in the new alley to
service vehicles.
Pedestrian Wayfinding
The proposed separation between the new garage and building at 560 Waverley would create
an opportunity for a pedestrian walkway, focused on and leading to the secondary stair and
vertical circulation elements. The pedestrian alley would provide a visual connection to All
Saints Episcopal Church, and would be visually enhanced with architectural paving, plantings,
benches and decorative lighting features. Plan sheet ARB 2.1 reflects a ‘potential pedestrian
route from Hamilton Avenue to Lane 21’ as a green dashed line. Further development of this
route may be described at the ARB hearing.
Sidewalks would be widened on Hamilton Avenue and Waverley Street to create a safer and
more inviting pedestrian route and experience. The increased sidewalks would work in
conjunction with road improvements on Hamilton Avenue with the removal of the current
mailbox island, and improvement of the pedestrian crossing point at the junction with
Waverley Street.

The primary stair and elevator circulation features are located at the corner of Waverley Street
and Hamilton Avenue. Pedestrian way finding is an important aspect of garage navigation. At
this street corner, a pedestrian court will provide access to the stair and elevator, as well as an
entrance to the proposed Waverley Street ground floor retail space.
A pedestrian entrance route is proposed from Hamilton Avenue to the bike storage area; this
route is intended to discourage pedestrians and cyclists from using the entrance drive aisle.
There is the opportunity to further extend this pedestrian route for those wishing to pass
through the building from Hamilton Avenue on route to the alley way and Lane 21.

Trash/Recycling Facility
A common refuse storage room is proposed at Lane 21 to serve the new retail space on the
project site and the Waverley-fronting businesses and the proposed new retail space.
Materials, Colors, and Construction Method
The primary construction material is poured in place concrete columns, slabs and walls. The
two-story base on street-facing elevations would be formed of sandblasted concrete in a
natural color, similar to All Saints Church, with subtle details used to define the corners and
architrave of the building.
Metal flat bars painted a dark bronze color are proposed to infill the first floor openings and
create screening for pedestrians. Metalwork would continue on the runs and landings of the
stair, which is intended to celebrate the metalwork found in the post office and other Spanish
revival buildings. A perforated metal scrim designed to allow the transmission of interior light
as a “lantern”, would wrap the main corner stair and assist wayfinding. This element could also
be the focus of the public art program for the building. Metal fins would wrap the upper stories
in panels outlined by metal channels that would define the cornice of the building at the upper
story. The fins would serve to create a body to the building while providing the required garage
ventilation. The fin color is intended to be reminiscent of the terracotta colors found in the
downtown.
Public Art
The Public Art Commission recently approved Amy Landesberg as the project artist. Potential
locations for the integration of public art have been identified on the building. These locations
are the shear wall element facing Hamilton Avenue and the stair cladding at the corner of
Hamilton Avenue and Waverley Street.
PF Zoning Text Amendments
As noted, the PTC recommended Council approval of the proposed PF zone text amendment on
January 31, 2018. Approval of the PF text changes allow for Council approval of this project. In
the PF district, the minimum front, side, and rear yards: “shall be equal to the respective front,
side, and rear yards required in the most restrictive abutting district; provided, that no yard
adjoining a street shall be less than 20 feet and that no interior yard shall be less than 10 feet”.
Encroachments, both above and below grade are as indicated on Attachment C. The PF zoning
development standards set forth a 20 foot street setback requirement and a reference special
setback; in this case, the seven foot special setback along Hamilton Avenue established on the
special setbacks map per PAMC Chapter 20.08 is less than the 20-foot street setback identified
on the PF development standards table. With the anticipated Council approval of the PF zoning
code modification, the proposed project would comply with all applicable codes.

Downtown Urban Design Guide and Comprehensive Plan Policies2
Council adopted the new Comprehensive Plan (Plan) in late 2017. The Plan can be viewed here:
https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/62915 The Plan policies relevant to
the project (and relevance thereto) will be cited in a Draft Record of Land Use Action for the
second ARB report. The Downtown Urban Design Guide (Guide) is a Council-approved tool to
accomplish Plan goals. The Plan mentions the Guide: “Downtown Urban Design Guide: 1994
City Council approved document intended to provide a framework for the design of buildings
and public spaces in Downtown Palo Alto; provisions are advisory”. The Guide policies are
noted in the draft EIR for the project, and were referenced in the Preliminary Review report to
the ARB, and below.
The Guide was intended to serve as a master plan to guide public improvements and art in
public spaces. The Guide recognizes that parking is a crucial element to the success of a
downtown commercial area. The Guide includes a guideline to develop a master sign program
to improve directional signage to public parking to increase the ease of locating and using the
parking lots. The Guide identifies the project site as within the Hamilton Avenue District. The
Hamilton Avenue District Goals are as follows:
‘Promote Hamilton Avenue as an active mixed use district which comfortably
accommodates larger scale commercial office, civic and institutional buildings.’
‘Maintain Hamilton Avenue as a pleasing, tree-lined pedestrian environment with
complimentary outdoor amenities to offset the urban intensity which naturally results
from the provision of transit service and convenient surface parking.’
The most relevant guidelines within the Hamilton Avenue District section are these:
“Provide pedestrian links from Hamilton Avenue to University Avenue in conjunction
with development of the alleys and parking lots.”
Regarding the westerly intersection corner (project site on map): ‘strong building
volume recommended’, and ‘opportunity for pedestrian friendly use’.
The proposed project supports the Guide’s district goal to promote Hamilton Avenue as an
active mixed use district, by providing parking and retail space. The project includes
replacement of street trees and additional street trees to ensure a tree-lined pedestrian
environment. Benches will meet the goal for complimentary outdoor amenities to offset the
urban intensity. The parking guidance system will make parking in the upper and lower garage
levels more convenient. The dashed line pedestrian route from Hamilton Avenue diverts
pedestrians to the proposed pedestrian access way rather than straight back from Hamilton to
Lane 21. It may be that pedestrians would still walk the straight line to the rear entry of the CVS
store. The corner building treatment is strong. The pedestrian plaza at the corner is focused on
the staircase and would facilitate direct access to the retail space and the building’s elevator.
Some plant material in this plaza would improve the pedestrian friendliness. The ARB may wish

to note how the plans meet Hamilton Avenue District goals, to support the preparation of draft
AR findings. The below Table 6 was included in the Draft EIR prepared by the CEQA consultant.
Table 1: Downtown Urban Design Guide Guiding Principles
Principle Guidance
An Active Place Downtown Palo Alto will be an exciting, active and friendly
place both during the day and night.
A Place to Live And Work Downtown will be an inviting, clean and safe place for people
to live, shop, work and recreate.
A Good Neighbor The residential character of neighborhoods adjacent to the
downtown will be protected from encroachment by
commercial downtown uses.
A Sense of Local History Preservation of historical structures and places will be
emphasized. Future projects can draw from historic buildings
and social characteristics of Palo Alto for inspiration.
The Pedestrian Environment The existing building pattern of storefronts or structural bays
creates the human scale of Downtown. Attractive and easily
recognizable pedestrian and auto entries welcome people.
Creatively designed, clean and functional alleys, sidewalks and
streets further enhance the pedestrian scale and experience.
An Outdoor Place Advantage will be taken of the temperate climate by providing
outdoor amenities, such as attractive street furniture,
newsracks, benches, lighting, restrooms, for beautiful, useful
open spaces, preferably designed by artists, architects, and
landscape architects. These design elements encourage a
stronger sense of community. Abundant and well maintained
landscaping will provide Downtown with rich, urban
greenscape and outdoor spaces.
Easy Access and Orientation A clearly defined and developed “city center,” downtown
“edges” and landmarks will provide a sense of orientation for
the Downtown. Varied transportation methods including
automobiles, bicycles, buses and trains will increase ease of
access. Adequate and useable parking will be available where it
is most needed.
Cultural Amenities Downtown will celebrate and emphasize cultural amenities
which contribute to the richness and diversity of Palo Alto. We
will also recognize and nurture the cultural relationship and
influence of Stanford University by reestablishing and
promoting the historic physical connection of Downtown to

the University.
Multi-Modal Access & Parking
The project has two vehicle driveways; one located at the south side of the site on Hamilton
Avenue and another located at the northwest side of the project connecting to Bryant Street
and Waverley Street. Pedestrian access points are included at several locations along the
perimeter of the parking facility via the open space between the columns at ground level. The
parking facility is accessible for pedestrians from Hamilton Avenue sidewalks, as well as
sidewalks that run along the parking facility connecting to Waverley Street and the Waverley
Street/Bryant Street driveway. The project also includes a pedestrian access point for the retail
land use on Waverley Street, as well as a pedestrian access point to the bike station near the
vehicle driveway off Hamilton Avenue. In addition, there are two pedestrian access points to
the trash enclosure at the northwest end of the parking facility. The project is not located on a
Safe Route to School path. Bicycle parking is proposed in the project to meet the demand.
Consistency with AR Application Findings
Attachment E is provided for the ARB to consider the code required AR findings that will be
customized for the project in a Draft Record of Land Use Action prepared for the second ARB
staff report. Findings will note that the project is subject to Council approval of zoning code text
amendments.
City Department Comments
City staff comments have been forwarded to the applicant for consideration. Several
comments from Transportation, Public Works Watershed Protection, and Utilities Engineering,
specifically related to design, are noted below. The applicant will be working to address these
comments prior to the second ARB public hearing.
Transportation Division
The applicant has recently received comments from the City’s Transportation Division staff,
who expressed concerns about the following design features:
1. Pedestrian pathway: The angle of the pedestrian path of travel between Hamilton Avenue
and Lane 21 as depicted on page ARB2.1 on the 12/20 plans isn’t suitable and:
the crossing needs to be perpendicular to the drive aisle, and
the plans should be revised to show the work necessary on the ground floor to enable
this walkway (curb ramps, truncated domes, markings, etc.).
2. Curb corner radius: The designer should verify the curb corner radius at Waverley and
Hamilton to ensure it is as tight as possible to allow vehicles to turn right at “crawl” speeds
without encroaching into opposing lanes.
3. Driveway grade: the parking garage driveway needs to be at sidewalk grade, not street grade.
The curb ramps will need to be removed and replaced with a city standard driveway and the
architectural site plan and grading and drainage plan will need to be updated to show the
ground floor slab at the correct elevation.
2
Packet Pg. 22
City of Palo Alto
Planning & Community Environment Department Page 15
4. Waverley Street bulb-out: A shorter bulb-out will allow for additional on-street auto parking.
Extending the bulb-out 20-feet north of the curb corner radius return would allow for amenities
(bike parking, trash cans, etc.); after which the bulb-out could return to the original curb-line
(and the length adjusted as needed so as not to result in fractional car parking spaces).
5. Waverley Street frontage: One additional street tree could probably be added.
6. Hamilton Avenue: The extent of the work along the post office frontage with the mailbox
drop-off removal, and new on-street parking stalls, should be shown in the next set.
7. Bike station: An enlarged detailed floorplan view of the bicycle storage room is need to show
the footprint of the bicycle parking fixture and dimensions between walls and other vertical
obstructions. The designer should verify the clearances meet the minimum requirements for
the chosen bike parking product. The specific product to be used (since clearances very
depending on product) should be shown on plans and indicate a two-tier fixture with a lift assist
system for the upper tier.
8. Parking wayfinding signage: Clearly show the locations of all façade-mounted parking
wayfinding signage, including the parking guidance sign shown on page ARB6.1. 9. Garage
name: The garage shall be known as “Garage 3”
10. Traffic Signal Plans: Not necessary for the entitlement but will ultimately need to be
prepared for both the Waverley/Hamilton intersection and Waverley/Gilman intersection.
11. Alleyway: The alley appears to accommodate a garbage truck and a small delivery van but it
might be beneficial to check the actual clearances in the alley for an SU-30 since the width is
constrained by dumpsters, bollards (protecting gas meters), and possibly awnings.
Public Works Watershed Protection
The applicant has received comments which include strong suggestions for:
1. Rain chains: Use rain chains or similar along vines and other walls/building corners.
2. Pavers: Low-maintenance permeable pavers for a small demonstration area.
3. Interpretive Sign: Installation of an interpretive sign regarding storm water treatment and
pollution prevention; the project is required to meet Bay Regional Municipal Regional Storm-
water Permit requirements.
Utilities Electrical Division
The applicant has received these comments, which focus on the project’s conflict with existing
electric and fiber optic utilities. The issues are:
1. Relocation of existing lines: The project requires relocation of primary lines and dark fiber
optic system backbone running through the project site (requiring trenching and substructure
construction and the installation of conduits, cables and equipment - this work needs to be
completed prior to disturbance and/or demolition of existing electric and fiber facilities and
requires a formal application to CPAU – Electric Engineering). The applicant will need to show
the proposal for relocation on the site plan in the next plan set.
2. Provision of space for two vaults: Two vaults each 6 feet wide x 12 feet long x 7 feet deep are
needed to house (a) the transformer which will feed the parking garage and (b) the transformer
which will replace the existing pad-mounted transformer on-site (with a note vaults 1820 and
2
Packet Pg. 23
City of Palo Alto
Planning & Community Environment Department Page 16
1821, located in the triangle area of the premise, are to remain at grade (since location of an
electric room on the basement level is not approved).
3. Pad-mount equipment and electric panel/switchboard: These will need to be shown on the
next plan set for the entitlement process.
Environmental Review
The subject project has been assessed in accordance with the authority and criteria contained
in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the State CEQA Guidelines, and the
environmental regulations of the City. The Draft EIR is proposed to be published for circulation
in late February, 2018, for a 45-day public comment period. The DEIR will be viewable on the
City’s webpages. The DEIR references a traffic study for the project prepared by Fehr and
Peers. The DEIR also refers to the Downtown Parking Master Plan and City of Palo Alto Bicycle
and Pedestrian Plan. An excerpt of the DEIR regarding these two plans is provided below:
Downtown Parking Master Plan
The parking master plan provides parking for visitors and customers in the downtown area. It
covers both on-street parking and off-street parking in parking lots and garages. The plan
restricts on-street parking to two hours and off-street parking to three hours during weekdays
between 8:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. Short-term parking spaces, commercial loading zones,
passenger loading zones, and disability-designated spaces are exempt from the color zone
parking requirements. The master plan provides long-term parking for employees of businesses
in the downtown area. Similarly, the Downtown Palo Alto Residential Preferential Parking
program provides residents with a permit to park on the street for longer durations[3].
City of Palo Alto Bicycle + Pedestrian Transportation Plan
The 2012 City of Palo Alto Bicycle + Pedestrian Transportation Plan guides public and private
investments in non-motorized transportation facilities and related programs. The plan includes
policy vision, design guidance, and specific recommendations to increase walking and biking
rates. The plan is consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan. It reinforces the Municipal
Code requirement that all bicycle parking areas shall be located at street floor level, or
equivalent in a parking garage[4].
Public Notification, Outreach & Comments
The Palo Alto Municipal Code requires notice of this public hearing be published in a local paper
and mailed to owners and occupants of property within 600 feet of the subject property at least
ten days in advance. Notice of a public hearing for this project was published in the Palo Alto
Weekly on January 26, 2018, which is 20 days in advance of the meeting. Postcard mailing
occurred on February 2, 2018, 13 days in advance of the meeting.

Public Comments and Outreach
Any public comments received during the scoping period for the EIR were forwarded to the
consultant. Public comments on the DEIR received before close of the comment period will be
addressed in the Final EIR. In November 2017, a community meeting was held to review the
proposed design for this project prior to review by the ARB. Staff received written comments
from two adjacent property owners (provided as Attachments G and H to this report).
Next Steps
The next time the ARB will review the project will be after the close of the public comment
period on the Draft EIR. Timely comments on the Draft EIR would be addressed in a Final EIR for
Council adoption. The Final EIR and project are tentatively scheduled for City Council review in
late June 2018.

Re: 375 Hamilton Ave., Downtown Parking Garage, ARB Formal Review Project Description
To Planning Staff and ARB Members:
Attached is the formal ARB submittal package for 375 Hamilton Ave., the proposed Downtown Parking
Garage. The project applicant is Watry Design Group, with Hayes Group Architects, on behalf of our
client, the City of Palo Alto.
This package includes fourteen sets of half size drawings and two sets of full size drawings, including the
vicinity map, neighborhood context, site plan, landscape plan, proposed floor plans, elevations, sections,
and perspectives.
SCOPE OF WORK
Due to an increased parking demand and a shortage of available parking spaces in the downtown, the
City of Palo Alto has begun the process for the design of a new parking structure at the corner of
Hamilton Avenue and Waverley Street. The project maximizes the amount of structured parking while
integrating the structure within the downtown context with retail storefronts are the primary goals of the
project.
EXISTING SITE USE
The site is located at the east corner of Hamilton Avenue and Waverley Street. The rear of the site
adjoins the ‘Lane 21’ alley. The surrounding vicinity is a mix of downtown retail and office uses.
Southwest of the property, at 345 Hamilton is the four-story AT&T central office. Northwest along
Waverley are several one and two-story retail buildings, including historic buildings at 526 Waverley, a
category 3 historic building and 510 Waverley, a category 2 historic building. Across Hamilton, to the
Southeast, is the historic, two-story Post Office, a category 1 historic building. Across Waverley to the
Northeast is the All Saints Episcopal Church. The site is more than 150 feet from any residentially zoned
properties so increased zoning restrictions do not apply.
The zone district is PF: Public Facility. The district has a fifty-foot height limit. There is a special setback
of seven feet along the Hamilton Avenue property line. The PF zone amendment and special set back
amendment will be presented to Council to allow amendment of the setback requirements. Easements
are not known at this time.
The site area is 29,164 SF, accommodating a surface-level parking lot for 86 vehicles. There is a public
restroom at the corner of Hamilton Avenue and Waverley Street. The Arborist Report identifies eight trees
on the property, including one protected Coast Live Oak. The protected Coastal Oak is in fair condition
with good grow but is not suitable for transplanting.
The occupants of 526, 550 and 560 Waverley utilize a portion of the site to access the backs of their
buildings and to pick up trash and recycling.

PROPOSED USE
A parking structure with five levels above ground and one basement level with a ground floor retail area of
2188 SF is proposed for the site. The main entry to the building will be from Hamilton Avenue Access is
also provided from Lane 21 however this access will generally be for exit only with entry only in the event
that the Hamilton Ave. access may be restricted.
This project shall provide 338 total parking stalls. Of these, there will be provision for accessible spaces
(8); electric vehicle charging (86, 19 to be installed initially) stalls serving the new retail area (9) and a
stall serving 550 Waverley.
A long-term bike storage room shall be provided at Hamilton Avenue near the main vehicle entry/exit.
This room shall be approximately 438 square feet and have space for approximately 50 bicycles. Short-
term bicycle storage can be provided at the sidewalk near the retail space.
A common refuse storage room shall be at Lane 21 near the secondary vehicle entry / exit. This room
shall be approximately 450 square feet. It will serve the Waverley Street businesses and the proposed
new retail space.
The parking structure will be 49’-10” to the top of rail on the fifth deck with an elevator penthouse
continuing to 63’-0”.
The building will be designed with infrastructure to allow for the future installation of photovoltaic panels
mounted above the top parking deck.
SITE AND BUILDING CONCEPT
The proposed building extends to the property line at the Hamilton Avenue and Waverley Street edges as
well as the interior side lot line shared with the AT&T building. A ground floor retail space is programmed
for the Waverley Street frontage. At the north property line, shared with 560 Waverley, the edge of the
garage sets back ten feet from the property line, allowing openings for natural ventilation into the parking
garage, as well as light to reach the existing windows at 560 Waverley. This necessary setback also
creates an opportunity for a pedestrian walkway, focused on and leading to the secondary stair and
elevator vertical circulation elements. Additionally, a visual connection to All Saints Episcopal church is
created between the garage and the church by way of the new alley connection. The alley is visually
enhanced with architectural paving, plantings, benches and decorative lighting features that will provide
the infrastructure for a useable space.
To create a safer and more inviting pedestrian route and experience the widths of the sidewalks adjacent
to the building on Hamilton Avenue and Waverley Street will be increased. The increased sidewalks will
work in conjunction with road improvements on Hamilton Avenue with the removal of the current mail box
island and improvement of pedestrian crossing point at the junction with Waverley Street.
The primary stair and elevator circulation features are prominently positioned at the corner of Waverley
Street and Hamilton Avenue since pedestrian way finding is an important aspect of garage navigation. At
this street corner, the building edge erodes, creating a pedestrian court with access to the stair and
elevator, as well as an entrance to the ground floor retail space that extends down Waverley Street.
In order to maintain access for utilities, services and secondary means of egress for the existing buildings
fronting on Waverley Street, the garage sets back sixteen feet from the shared property line at this

location. Vehicle access will be restricted in this alley to those vehicles needed for service and the alley
will be enhanced with architectural paving, new planting, benches and lighting so that it can be a useable
space.
To satisfy the car count goal, the garage is four stories, with parking at the roof level, plus one level of
basement parking. The main vehicle entry / exit shall be on Hamilton Avenue near the south corner of
the lot since Hamilton is a more travelled way. A secondary vehicular exit shall be at Lane 21.
The garage requires substantially open sides to provide natural ventilation for all levels except the
basement level that is mechanically ventilated.
A pedestrian entrance route has been included from Hamilton Avenue to access the bike storage area
and to discourage pedestrians and cyclists from using the entrance drive aisle. There is the opportunity to
further extend this pedestrian route for those wishing to pass through the building from Hamilton Avenue
on route to the alley way and Lane 21.
The building concept is one of transition and compatibility. The garage is integrated into the context of
the downtown rather than being self-conscious and aggressive. An integrated building defines itself
though program, connections with the site and context as well as streetscape character without
replicating architectural styles but drawing from them.
The general massing of the façade is scaled to the street by creating a two-story base supporting the
upper floors of the garage. A rhythm to the base relates to the arcade of the adjacent post office and
creates areas for bench seating along Hamilton and entries into the retail space along Waverley. The
height of the AT&T building at seventy-five (75) feet serves as a backdrop to our building. The base of the
building also assists in the transition to the two-story, mercantile buildings along Waverley Street.
MATERIALS, COLORS, AND CONSTRUCTION METHODS
The primary construction material is poured in place concrete columns, slabs and walls. Along the street
edges, the two-story base is sandblasted concrete in a natural color, similar to All Saints Church, with
subtle details used to define the corners and architrave of the building. Metal flat bars painted a dark
bronze color are used to infill the first floor openings to create screening for pedestrians. The metalwork
is continued on the runs and landings of the stair celebrating the metalwork found in the post office and
other Spanish revival buildings. Lighted from the inside, a perforated metal scrim wraps the main corner
stair creating a lantern element that serves as a wayfinding device. This element could also be the focus
of the public art program for the building. Metal fins wrap the upper stories in panels outlined by metal
channels that define the cornice of the building as they rise to the upper story. The fins serve to create a
body to the building while allowing for the required garage ventilation. Their color is reminiscent of the
terracotta colors found in the downtown.
LANDSCAPE CONCEPT
The landscape of the proposed parking structure is designed to enhance the pedestrian environment of
downtown Palo Alto and encourage positive social interaction through providing an inviting streetscape
and creating a unique and convenient pedestrian alleyway between the existing surrounding buildings
and the proposed structure.
The streetscape walkways are replaced and widened to provide more room for circulation along the
proposed retail space on Waverley Street and for enjoying the built-in benches and landscaped raised

planters on Hamilton Avenue. New street trees are proposed along Hamilton in enlarged, 4’x7’ tree wells
to help ensure healthy growth of the new Ginkgo trees which reflect the existing species of the preserved
street trees on Waverley Street.
The corner of the parking structure features a small plaza area that introduces decorative pavers which
are also used in the pedestrian access alleyways.
The pedestrian access alleys offer a quiet and human scaled alternative route through the project site. To
invite people explore and use the alley, decorative pervious pavement, generous benches, landscaped
storm water treatment planters, and pedestrian scaled lighting is used. The storm water planters are at
grade level even with the walkway, and will feature a combination of low growing knee high foliage and
flowering plants that provide year round interest and function to cleanse storm water directed from the
parking structure roof. As width allows, columnar gingko trees similar to the surrounding street trees are
introduced to further enhance the pedestrian environment and create a pleasant atmosphere for what is
expected to be a well-used passageway.
Maintenance access for surrounding Waverley Street businesses is maintained in the pedestrian access
alley concrete is used at the north end durability and for ease of access to trash dumpsters. The parking
structure is visually softened by the addition of vines trained to grow on the façade.
PUBLIC ART
Potential locations for the integration of public art have been identified on the building. These locations
are the shear wall element facing Hamilton Ave and the possibility of an artist’s design for the perforation
pattern to the stair cladding at the corner of Hamilton Ave. and Waverley.
GREEN BUILDING PROGRAM
The building will comply with the mandatory requirements of the 2016 Non Residential California Green
Building Code (CALGREEN + TIER 2)
We look forward to our presentation and discussion with the Architectural Review Board.
