City of San Leandro <br />880 Doolittle Drive Industrial Project <br /> <br />2-8 <br />2.4.4 Surrounding Land Uses <br />The project is located on an infill site that is largely surrounded by industrial and commercial uses. <br />Land adjacent to the northern boundary of the project site is developed with a mix of commercial <br />and industrial land uses, including but not limited to, tool vendors, screen printing shops, machine <br />shops, and sign shops. Carden Street separates the project site from land uses to the east, which are <br />comprised of trucking businesses, a landscape company, metal supplier, and other <br />commercial/industrial businesses. <br />The site is approximately 2.5 miles east of the San Francisco Bay, 5.8 miles northwest of San Lorenzo <br />Creek, and 2.5 miles west of San Leandro Creek. The San Francisco Bay shoreline is approximately <br />3,000 feet southwest of the project site. The freight and corporate aircraft runways at Oakland <br />International Airport are approximately 4,050 feet northwest of the project site. <br />2.5 Project Description <br />The proposed project consists of consolidating the two parcels comprising the project site into a <br />single parcel, demolishing existing vacant structures, and developing a new industrial shell building <br />on the site. There is no specific known land use and/or tenant proposed at this time, and the shell <br />building would be designed to accommodate a future industrial tenant who may perform interior <br />improvements to accommodate their specific needs. The proposed project also includes a new <br />surface parking lot, internal circulation roadways, new utility connections, and landscaping, <br />including landscaped areas that would serve as stormwater management. The major components of <br />the proposed project are described in subsections below. <br />2.5.1 Property Consolidation and Demolition <br />The project site comprises two separate parcels, identified as APNs 77A-0741-004-02 and 77A-0741- <br />005-00. The proposed project includes merging these two parcels into a single parcel. The new <br />parcel would measure approximately 14.14 acres. <br />Site preparation activities would commence with demolition of the two existing vacant structures <br />on site, as well as all associated surface parking, landscaping, and internal circulation and driveways <br />on the site. Existing utility connections would be completely removed or abandoned in place in <br />accordance with local and state regulations, in coordination with utility providers. Demolition <br />materials, such as solid waste from the existing structures and asphalt pavement, would be disposed <br />of at permitted or licensed facilities in accordance with local and state regulations. Demolition <br />would last approximately 2 months. <br />2.5.2 Industrial Development <br />After approximately 6 months following demolition of existing structures, the proposed project <br />would include construction of a new warehouse with supporting office space. The proposed building <br />is approximately 244,573 square feet, comprised of a 229,573 square-foot of warehouse and 15,000 <br />square feet of associated office space. Approximately 10,000 square feet of office space would be <br />provided on the ground floor alongside the warehouse use. The remaining 5,000 square feet of <br />office space would be on a mezzanine level of the warehouse. The footprint of the warehouse and <br />office use would be 239,753 square feet. The proposed warehouse would be positioned within the <br />project site to comply with the City’s minimum frontage setback requirement of 10 feet. The <br />proposed floor area ratio (FAR) is 0.40 and the maximum building height would be 50 feet with an
