Study/Addendum City of San Jose ii May 2016 SECTION 1.0 INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE 1.1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION In November 2011, the City of San José approved the Envision San José 2040 General Plan (General Plan), which is a long-range program for the future growth of the City. The Envision San José 2040 General Plan Final Environmental Impact Report (General Plan FEIR, also approved in November 2011) was a broad range analysis of planned growth and did not analyze specific development projects. The intent was for the General Plan FEIR to be a program-level document from which subsequent development consistent with the General Plan could tier from and/or addendize to. The project site is within the Downtown growth area designated by the General Plan. The General Plan FEIR evaluated growth of up to 10,360 dwelling units and 48,500 jobs in the Downtown growth area. The Downtown land use designation was analyzed for up to 350 dwelling units per acre (DU/AC) and a floor area ratio (FAR) up to 15.0 (three to 30 stories) in the General Plan FEIR. This designation allows for office, retail, service, residential, and entertainment uses in the Downtown area at high intensities, unless incompatibility with other major policies within the General Plan. In November 2015, San José City Council approved an amendment to the Downtown land use designation, which increased the maximum allowed dwelling units from 350 to 800 dwelling units per acre and the maximum FAR from 15 to 30.1 In June 2014, the City of San José adopted the Diridon Area Station Plan (DSAP), which established a vision for Diridon station and the surrounding area in response to the planned extension of Bay Area Rapid Transit and High Speed Rail service to San José. Future growth projected under the DSAP was evaluated in the General Plan at a conceptual level and is a subset of the General Plan. The DSAP area is divided into three zones: 1) the Northern Zone which is generally north of The Alameda, 2) the Central Zone which is the core area centered on Diridon Station, and the Southern Zone is generally between Park Avenue and Interstate 280. The proposed Park
