Promote and Enhance Economic, Housing and Transportation Development
BACKGROUND
The applicant requests approval of a Vesting Tentative Parcel Map (File No. PLN24-00130) to subdivide the 2.79-acre property at 4590 Patrick Henry Drive into two lots to accommodate the construction of a new eight-story 284-unit multi-family residential building on a 2.24-acre lot. The other lot will be a 0.55-acre public park that is dedicated to the City.

It is also within the Patrick Henry Drive Specific Plan. The 0.55-acre public park is identified as open space in the Specific Plan. The proposed park design and programming is being reviewed under a separate process through the Parks and Recreation Commission and City Council.
The Architectural Review of the eight-story 284-unit multi-family residential building project (File No. PLN23-00290) was heard at the Development Review Hearing (DRH) on October 16, 2024 and continued to November 13, 2024 DRH in order for the applicant to provide perspective renderings to respond to comments from members of the public on architecture and massing as well as justify the requested density bonus waivers and concessions.
