SUMMARY
The proposed mixed-use project includes the construction of eight, four-story townhome buildings and two, three-story live/work buildings, providing a total of 55 new residential units with related site improvements on an existing 2.47-acre site. The nine live/work units, located in buildings fronting Mission Boulevard, would provide 1,800 to 2,700 square feet of combined residential and commercial space, and a mix of one and two car garages. The project is subject to Major Site Plan Review due to the total lot size over 2-acres and incudes a Vesting Tentative Tract Map to allow for-sale units. The applicant is also proposing that six (6) townhome units would be available to moderate-income households and in exchange for exceeding the affordable housing requirements, the applicant is requesting two waivers per the State’s Density Bonus law: 1) to reduce the Civic Space Size Requirement to 20 feet; and 2) to reduce the required landscaping setback from 5-feet to zero to allow the construction of an access drive.
The project site is currently zoned Mission Boulevard - Corridor Neighborhood (MB-CN) in the Mission Boulevard Code and contains a Sustainable Mixed-Use (SMU) land use designation in the Hayward 2040 General Plan.
