SUMMARY
The applicant, the City of Hayward, is requesting to rezone 2.67 acres, which is currently zoned High Density Residential (HDR), and Office Commercial (CO) (Attachment IV Figure 3). The project site is located at the intersection of Apple Avenue and Oak Street and was acquired in 2016 by way of a purchase and sale agreement between the City of Hayward and California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). Currently known as Parcel Group 9, some of the land acquired from Caltrans is in unincorporated Alameda County and currently zoned Public Facility and High Density Residential. The 1.59-acre portion of land located in Alameda County would remain as is and is not subject to the rezoning request (Attachment IV Figure 2). The remainder of Parcel Group 9, 2.67 acres, lies within the City of Hayward jurisdiction, which is subject to the proposed rezoning application (Attachment IV Figure 2).
