Worksession on Kaiser Medical Center Project January 11, 2010 pg. 4 nursing, diagnostic, treatment, medical specialty and commercial/retail use. As currently envisioned, buildout of the Medical Center may include expansion of the hospital by an additional 175,000 square feet to accommodate an additional 120 beds; the construction of two additional medical office buildings of approximately 100,000 square feet each; and the potential for a structured parking garage. This potential buildout would not occur until after completion of Phase 1, but is anticipated prior to year 2030. The exact mix and density of the future buildout uses will be subject to an innovative vehicle "trip bank" program. The trip bank concept would allow greater flexibility for the City and Kaiser in selecting desired uses provided that the total trips generated by these uses do not exceed the allowed maximum total vehicle trips subject to the trip bank. Mixed-Use Retail Development In order to provide flexibility for the mixed-use retail development site to appropriately respond to future market conditions, the program for buildout of the northern portion of the site includes several options, each of which are anchored by a large retail component. These options include: . 432,000 square feet of retail use only, or 387,000 square feet of retail use and 250 units of residential apartments, or 387,000 square feet of retail use and a 210-room hotel. It is envisioned that the mixed-use retail development will be implemented between 2013 and 2019, but these estimated dates are dependent upon the economics of the retail industry and thus subject to change.
