Document Description
The proposed update to the Downtown Precise Plan would convert several existing design guidelines into standards and add new design standards in subareas A, G, and H. The proposed project would not change the maximum development assumed for the Precise Plan in the original 1988 Precise Plan, subsequent Precise Plan amendments, or Mountain View 2030 General Plan. The proposed update would institute a maximum FAR in Subarea H where no maximum currently exists. The maximum FAR would be consistent with the density currently allowed in area H. No increases to the allowed parking requirements, or overall allowed development intensities are proposed. As a result, the proposed updates would primarily change the design outcomes of new buildings in subareas A, G, and H, with the intent of maintaining the existing look and feel of those Precise Plan subareas.
