Pla nning Go a ls

 Complete district node by connecting visually to adjacent properties through building, open space and landscape treatments and materials.

 Design must be a good entry to the City

 Connection to existing and future open space and trail systems.  Creation of a gateway at the border of Santa Clara City by leveraging Lava Flow and Sunset Boulevard intersection and the grade change/ intersection at the east end of the site .

 Help to establish an identity for the City.

 Promote development that blends into the existing fabric of the area and is sensitive to neighboring residential and commercial uses.

 Not necessarily more of the same but uses that will enhance economic impact to the city (tax base creation vs tax base enhancement)

 Attract and support the highest and best uses for the site to maximize SITLA and City of Santa Clara objectives.
