The Council ot the City of Palo Alto does RESOLVE as
SECTION 1. Background. The City Cou.ncil of the
City of Palo Alto (WCity council-) finds, determines, and declares
as fellows:
A~ An application has been made to. the City of Palo
Alto (-City·) for the P310 Alto Medical Foundation Specific Plan
project. The specific plan is to serve as a plaN\ing tool to guide
the physical expansion and renovation of the Palo Alto Medical
Foundation's (-Foundation-) ~ain facilities in or near the downto_~
area of the City of Palo Alto4 The development project allows a
maximum net increase of 45,000 square feet of floor area beyona the
current area of apprcximately 265.000 square. feet. The development
approvals required for the project include comprehensive plan
amendments, a specific plan, and a PC Planned co~unity rezoninq.
~ development aqreement is also being sought by the Foundation and
city.. Implementation of the specific plan will require future
acti",n on a detailed d.evelopment plan through the .PC Planned
Community loning process.
B. The City as the lead agency for the project has
causea to be prepared a Final Environmental Impact Report ,-Final
EIR~) for the Palo Alto Medical Foundation Specific Plan project.
Pursuant to state CEQA Guidelines section 15132(e) r the Final EIR
consists of the following documents and 1rtaterials: ·Palo Alto
Med.ical Found.ation Specific Plan Revised Draft Environmental Impa.ct

throuqh May 1990~ The Planning Commission beld t~o p~b!ic hearinqs
on the Oraft EIR$ on December 13, 1989, and January 10$ 1990. The
Planning Co~ission also held six public study sessions (December
6$ 1989$ ~anuary 24~ February 14/ March 14 and 21$ April 24, and
Hay 5, 1990). During this process, the Planning Commission
determined that the initial draft EIR should be expanded to include
additional evaluation of environmental concerns and alternatives4
Because of the scope of the revisions, the initial Draft EIR was
withdrawn, a second round of public revie~ was Qirec~ed, and a new
Notice of Preparat.ion was prepared for the Rc",is.od Dr-aft ErR on
June 1., 1990 ..
D. The 'Revised Draft ErR 'lias circulated fer public
review and comment frem September 11, 1990, to November 1, 1990.
In additioTI, the Planning cOlIllDiss:'on conducted a pUblic :hearing on
the Revised Draft ErR on OCtober 2(, 1990 in order to provide an
opportunity for oral co:cunents, and any additional written comments.
in response to comments received during public review of the Draft
EIR, tbe specific plan was revised to avoid or substantially lessen
several impacts identified as significant in the Final EIR.
E. The City Council held a duly noticed public hearing
for the pur-,tJOse of reviewing and. considerinq the information
contai~ed in the Final EIR, a~d considering the suoject Comprehen
sive Plan amendments, Specific Plant and d.evelopment agreement,
oommencinq on July 15, 1991.
F~ The city Council, in conj~nction with this resolu
tion, is also approving a reporting and monitoring program pursuant
to Public Resources Code sectio~ 21081.E ~hich program is designed
to ensure compliance with project changes and ~itigation measures
imposed to avoid or substantially lessen the significant effects
identified in th~ Final EIR, and descrih2d in detail in Exhibit A
which is attache~ hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
G. The City Council has reviewed and considered the
information contained in the Final EIR and record of proceedings.
SECTION 2. Certificati_Q1}. The City Ccuncil certifies

SEc:-I'rON 4.. Signific~m: rmpacts W1"'.ich Cannot Be Fully
~itigated. The City Council finds that the Final EIR identifies
significant environmental effects of the project with respect to
the loss of land zoned for· multiple-family residential hou~ing (IV
2); th~ impact of the construction period on the surrounding land
uses (IV 3): and the inte~ittent visual impacts of the construc
tion schedule (VII 2). The City Council finds that, in response to
each significant effect identified in this Section 4, vhile all
identified feasible changes or alterations have been required in,
ot' incorporated into, the project 'Which reduce the significant
environmental effects as identi tied in the Final EIR, these effects
cannot be totally avoided or reduced to a level of insignificance

requirinq those measures required to lessen the impacts on housinq
and employment identified in section 3 .. B (1) and (2) of these
findinqs.
B. construction Impacts on Land Use. (IV 3).. The
construction impacts on land '.h:;;e associated with the Project shall
be mitigated to the fullest extent feasible by incorporati~ the
following measures in the Specific Plan:

C. Visual Impacts of Construction. (VIr 2). The
intermittent visual impacts of construction associated with the
Project shall be mitigated to the fullest extent feasible by
requiring that the construction period occur in no more than two

Pl~n, Phasing policy 1, page 33)
SEctION 5. The City council certifies that the Fir-al EIR
describes a reasonable range of alternatives to the project, or to
its location, which could feasibly obtain the basic ohjectives of
the project a~d that the City Council has evaluated the comparative
merits of the alternatives and rejected them in favor of the
proposed project as 5~arized below:
A. No Proiect Alternati\le~ The City Council fin~s that
this alternative would not meet the objectives of the Foundation to
expand and remodel in an orderly way. Although same project
specific impacts would be avoided under this alternative, expansion
of Foundation facilities could occur in a manner that would
perpetuate the existing parking d~ficit and would be less regulated
than this project, and thus, would not produce the public benefits

or the project. This alternative is the environmentally s\,'per-ior
alternativa~ if the Foundation forgoes ~xpansivn~ (Revised Oraft
EIR, paqe 311; Final EIR, Appendix A)
B. Maxi Mart site Alternative. The city Council finds
that tiJis alte:r-native ,",ould remove the potential tor up to 517
lIIultiple-t'amily residential units on land currently zoned RM-30 ..
and is thus inconsistent ~ith the Palo Alto Comprehensive Plan.
(Revised Draft EIR, pages 319-320}. In addition, it would create
more significant traffic imp~.cts than the proposed project.
(Reviaed Draft EIR, pages 118-J19). Finally, althougb tl"l-e site
could meet the objectives of the Foundation, it .. ould allow greater
expansion than the City Council is willing to alloW', as an
exception to the Comprehensive Plan~
c. Town &-Country Village Alternative. The city
Council finds that this alternative is environmentally superior to
the Maxi-Mart site alternative; ho~ever, the site contains viable
existing uses comprising the Town , Coun.try villaqe Shoppinq
Center, which would not be available, if at all, within the time
frame contemplated by the Specific Plan. Further, this site could
also allow greater expansion than th~ City Council is ~illing to
allow as a.n exception to the COl:l.prehensive Plan. (Revised Draft
EIR, paqe 326)
D. On Site Alternativ.es.
Alternative A. The City Council finds that this
Alternative .. lihic::h is also environmentally superior to the project,
which mixes housing and Medical Foundation facilities on the vest
block and allows expansion of the Lee Building up to a height of 60
feet on the main block, 'oioulrt not lDeet the objectives of the
Foundation to expand~ remodel and continue to provide health care
services in an orderly -way, because it mixes both housing and
Me~ical Foundation facilities on the ~est block. In addition, the
provision of underground parking facilities under the north block
and ea.st .ide. of the main block would result in construction
impacts in areas where under the recommended Specific Plan they
~ould be minimal.
~~nativg Bw 'The City Council finds that this
alternatjve, ""hieh is similar to .Alternative A, except. tt.at the
height of the Lee Building would not exceed the existing height of
44 feet, wO'.lld not meet the objectives of the Foundation to expand
in an orderly manner because it 'Would ll'.ix housing and Medical
Foundation facilities on the ~est block. In addition, underground
parking facilities under the north block and the east side of the
main block ~ould result in construction impacts in areas ~here they
would be minimal under the recommended Specific Plan.

Alterna"~. The City Council finds that this
alternative, which contains some si~ilar ~rovisions to the
recommended specific Plan, including some housing on the north
block and use of the entire .. est block for Medical Foundation
facilities, nonetheless ,,"ould require constructIon of underground
parking under the north b]~ck ano the east side of the main block
and result in construction impacts in areas where under the
recommended Specific Plan they would be minimal. In addition,
under this Alternative, ell north bloCK Medical Foundation
facilities 'Would have to be relocated to either the west or main
blockS, which could increase the amou~t of construction in these
areas.
E. Alternatives Considered But Not Evalyated. The
Final EIR (Appendix E) described two off-site alternatives that
'Wer~ considered by the Plantling commission for inclusion in the
EIR, but which were rejected as potential sites for reasons
relatinq to adequate site size, freedom from toxic wastes and
potential availability. Those sites were (1) the four-parcels
owned :by Stanford Oniversi ty at thE north .... ·est corner of £1 Camino
Real and Page Kill Road and {2} the Elks Club site at 4249 £1
Camino Real. The City Council supports the Plar~ing Commission
decision to exclude those sites from further review for the reesons
stated in the Final ErR~ In addition to the sites previously
cHsclJssea, a member of the public, at the Planning Commission
public hearing of June 19, 1991, suggested that the EIR should have
considered Stanford lands as a further off-site alternative.
(Testimony of Herb Borock, June 19, 1991)~ It is assumed that the
speaker was referring to stanford Hospital lands. Based on this
assumption, the City Council finds that such an alternative is
infeasible because such a use is inconsistent ~ith currently known
plans of stanfor~ University, and no site that ~ould meet the needs
of the FOUndation is available. Further, the pro:ximity of the
Stanford Hospital facilities to the Sand Hill Road corridor means
that any additional square footage of the size contemplated by the
FOUndation which were proposed to be located in the Stanford
Hospital area would be handicapped by severe circulation and other
environmental restrict ions I and ~ould ~ost likely enCOQ~ter
opposition from neighboring communities.
SECTION 6. The city Council finds that the unavoidable
environmental impacts of the project are acceptable when balanced
against the benefits of the project, even after giving qreater
'Weight to its duty to avoid the environmental impacts, and to
pl'Otect the envirorunent to the maximum extent feasible. This
determination is made based upon the follOwing factors and public
benefits identified in the Final EIR and record of proceedings as
flolliing from the project:

A. T~e project viII result in elinination of a parking
deficit that noltl exists in the area of the PaIr-, Al to Medical
Foundation, (CMR:10~:91. l/lO/~l. page 7)
S. '.the Project *,i11 provide for demolition of the
extremely unattractive Urgent Care facility south of Channing and
r.dsvelopment of that site into lo~-density housing that would be
compatible with the adjacent neighborhood and overall improvement
in the aesthetics of new and remodeled Medical foundation facili
ties l including the redesigned Lee building. (CMR:109;91, 1/10/91,
pages 7 "nd 8 J
c. The Project will enable the Medical Foundation to
maintain and enhance the quality and cost of care and the research
programs in the same way it has tor 60 years, especially in the
care of the elderly and disadvantaged, in a changing medical
environment that is becoming increasingly large qrcup health care
providers rather than single practitioners. {Testi~ony of Gordon
~~ssell and David Druuker, M~O., City council minutes of ~/2~j91,
pages 65-276 and 65-277)
o~ The Project will provide the City ~ith leased land
on which it could construct a m~ch needed child care facility, as
demonstrated by the Palo Alto Child Care Master Plan. (testimony of
Mary Sylvester, City Council minutes of 1/28/91, page 65-284)
E. The Project will provide tbe city ~ith a new open
space area by requiring the Fou~dation to transfer title to the
parking area at the southeast corner of Channing Avenue and 5ryant
Street. (Specific Plan, Land Use Policy 13, page 20)
F. Approval of the Project ... i11 ;-::ovide a reasonal:lle
balance between the exercise of private property rights by the
Medical Found3~ion ana the interests of the public by mitigating
the effects upon the environment cf the exercise of such rights.
The Project responds to other equally important or more compelling
pub~ic interests (viz., the health care considerations abvve
mentioned) •
SECTION 7. Impacts Found Not tQ Be signifi£Ant. The
City Council finds that the Final EIR neither expressly identifies,
nor contains any substantial evidence identifying Significant
environmental effects of the project ~ith respect to any of the
environmental impacts dismissed through the scopinq process with
"nolt responses on Initial Study E9-EIA-J4 {Revised Draft EIR,
Appendix -N-} and ~ith respect to the follo~ing impacts identified
as not sig'nificant in the Final EIR: The dis~lacement ot six
residential structures from the west block (Final EIR, IV 4); re
use of the Sports Medicine building for more intensive office
retail use f IV 5); impacts on six { ...... ith Bryant Street open) or

upon the Traffic Infusion on Residential Environments methodology,
impacts on Bryant street south of Homer Avenue ~ith Bryant open ~nd

of Chann1nq Avenue with Bryant Street closed (VI 3);-on-street
parking in the surrounding area in the event underground parking
qarages are not used to their ~apacity (VI 4): removal of 70 on
street public parking spaces to accommodate the Bryai1t street
closure and the main e~try at Brya~t street and Homer Avenue (VI
5,; temporary removal of parking spaces during the construction
period (VI 6)~ possible conflicts bet~een pedestrians, ~icyclists
and vehicles vith Bryant Street $er~in9 as the main entry (VI 1);
l?Cation of is bicy~le lane on the west side of Bryant Street with
Elryant Street cl..Jsed would require hicycl ists to cross from the
vest to the east side of the street at the intersections vith Home~
and Channing Avenues and increase the potential tor accidents at
these intersections (Vl 8); tree planting in the middle of Bryant
Stre.et could obs.C!\lre visibility for bicyclists at intersections and
tree litter could be hazardous for bicyclists (VI 9); the proposed
plan could have an adverse impact on the general form and appear
ance of the area by increasing the scale and density of a single
use (VII 3); the remcval of six residential structures from the
~est :block would have an adverse impact on the exist.ing visual
chsracter of the a~ea (VII 4 {any references in tbe Final EIR to
this i~pact bei~9 significant are unsupported by any substantial
evidence 4nd expressly disclaimed by the Council]}: the proposed
phasinq ot the project woul~ delay remodeling of the now unattrac
tive Lee Building (VIIS): surface p~rking would be retained until
the last phase of construction (VIr 6): the former A.M~E. Zion
Church at 819 Ramona Street., which is a category 3 contributing
historic resource, would be de~olish£d (VIII 1); removal of six
older residential structures, which are not of historic value, but
vhich contribute to the historic character of the neighborhood
(VIII 2): increased dema.nd on 'Water supp~y systenls and 'Water
r~sources (IX AI); construction impacts caused by modification of
the water syst,e1l1 (IX A2); increased demand on existing limited
';-9wer systems and treatment facilities (IX Bll: const~ction
impacts caused by modification of the sever systeln (IX 92);
