project descRIPTION

The applicant proposes a Site Development Permit to allow the construction of a new industrial building on two vacant parcels located at 644 and 675 Piercy Road in San José. The total square footage of the proposed industrial building would be approximately 216,252 square feet with a maximum height of approximately 48 feet. The applicant also proposes site improvements including surface parking lots, internal roadways for site circulation, new driveways, stormwater treatment areas, and landscaping. The proposed project includes 155 automobile parking spaces (including 7 ADA accessible parking spaces, 62 electric vehicle capable parking spaces, 11 spaces with Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment or EVSE, 10 clean air/vanpool spaces), 18 motorcycle parking spaces, 18 bicycle spaces, and 66 trailer parking stalls. Access to the proposed development would be provided via four access driveways with one connecting to Piercy Road, one connecting to Tennant Avenue, and two connecting to Hellyer Avenue. The exact usage of the proposed building is yet to be determined, but would likely be utilized for industrial distribution, manufacturing, and/or research & development activities. The project also includes a lot line adjustment in order to align the parcels under the building and western parking area, respectively.

LOCATION

The project site is located at 644 and 675 Piercy Road and comprises two vacant parcels totaling approximately 15.92-gross acres.
