Eight full sized sets of the pertinent sheets of the construction drawings for the project shall be submitted to the Planning Division for DRB review concurrent with, or prior to, the developer initiating the Building Division plan check process. Outstanding issues that require follow-up DRB review that shall be addressed as part of this review include: (a) the manner the existing metal awnings on the building are refaced; (b) the treatment of the "gap" on the southeast building wall created by the removal of the semi-circle metal canopy; (c) the design of the new canopy at the proposed main restaurant entry; (d) review of method of window tinting of selected windows on the parking lot side of the project; (e) design of the privacy fence along the Railroad Avenue frontage that is proposed to screen the restaurant's delivery area; (f) review of the new trash enclosure structure; and the construction details for the raised landscape planters and the combination retaining wall/bench structures. 9. Permanent business identification signs for the restaurant are subject to separate review under of Sign Review Permit. If artistic neon is use for the sign(s), the review of the Sign Review Permit shall be by DRB. 10. The proposed modifications of the on site parking lot shall be subject to review and approval by the Engineering Division by way of an applicant submittal of project improvement plans. If that review results in the net reduction of new spaces that can be added, the reduction of on site parking shall be addressed through payment of parking in lieu fees. The improvement plans prepared for the project shall addressed the- following issues: a. The proposed drive aisle widths shall be widened from 15'-9" to a minimum width of 17'-0" to provide for safe maneuverability through the parking lot. The additional parking lot width necessary to meet this minimum aisle width standard shall be secured by narrowing the existing landscape planter along the Iron Horse Trail. b. The presence of existing. fire hydrant and fire sprinkler equipment that exists in the parking lot shall be addressed. A reduction in the ,overall parking space count shall be required if the equipment needs to be within raised landscape planter areas to satisfy the requirements of the San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District. PAGE 4 OF RESOLUTION N0.2007-24 c. The design of the parking lot shall be modified as may be necessary to accommodate vehicular needs of the 60'+/- length tractor-trailer trucks serving the food market. d. The design of the parking lot shall be modified to reduce the number of accessible parking spaces to the minimum number required by code (i.e., five spaces where the lot is between 101 and 150 total parking spaces). e. The design of the parking lot shall be modified as may be necessary to meet the Danville Municipal Code standard that requires an area not less than 5 % of the total parking area to be devoted to landscaping. To the extent feasible, the ,compact-sized parking spaces used in the lot shall be placed within the center parking aisle to allow pairing of spaces with a corresponding provision of 8' x 8' raised landscape islands between the spaces. f. The improvement plans shall reflect improvements .necessary to comply with the County's Clean Water Program's NPDES Permit. g. The parking lot modification plan shall be modified to eliminate one of two planned accessible parking spaces near the tower element of the subject tenant space and to reflect a shuffling of the placement of that space and nearby standard-sized and compact-sized spaces to allow the accessible space to be located to place the unloading ramp between the two established trees at the north side of the tower (to allow both trees to be retained). h.

The modified placement of these light poles in the lot shall be subject to review and approval by the Engineering Division. 11. The design of the new trash enclosure shall be substantially consistent with the existing, abutting trash enclosure and shall be subject to .review and approval by DRB. The location of the proposed enclosure shall be checked against easements encumbering the property for possible development of a future light rail transit system along the Iron Horse Trail corridor. The location of the proposed enclosure shall be subject to review and comment from PG&E as it may relate to the presence of the existing transformer that PAGE 5 OF RESOLUTION N0.2007-24 occupies the area between the existing and proposed enclosures. The installation of the new trash enclosure is at the discretion of the property owner. If a decision is made to make use of the existing facilities rather than adding a new trash enclosure, the area proposed for the trash enclosure shall be converted for parking and/or landscaping use. Unless otherwise authorized through the DRB review process, the new enclosure shall include six-foot minimum height masonry walls; steel framed gates (faced with wood bolted to the gates); self-closing and self-la#ching gate assembly; a drain connected to the sanitary sewer; and drainage improvements to prevent storm water run-off from entering the enclosure from adjacent surfaces. Prior to the issuance of a building permit for the enclosure, the applicant shall document that the trash/recycling areas are appropriately sized and located. 12. The design and layout of the exterior seating area shall be subject to review and approval by the San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District. The presence of an existing fire hydrant and fire riser, respectively located within and at the perimeter of the area, necessitates a review by the District before the plans are finalized and implemented. Changes to this area necessitated by either the District's review or through the Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license review shall be subject to review and approval by the Planning Division. 13. A construction phasing plan for the parking lot modifications- shall be prepared by the applicant with a goal of minimizing the impact on municipal parking and of maintaining a measurable portion of the on site spaces for customer use during construction. This plan shall be subject to review and approval by the Engineering Division prior to the issuance of a building permit for the tenant space improvements. 14. Wall-mounted exterior space heaters shall not be placed so as to be viewable from San Ramon Valley Blvd. or Railroad Avenue. The number and location of gas "mushroom' heaters, if proposed, shall be subject to review and approval by the Planning Division prior to installation. 15. The restaurant tenant shall have the ongoing responsibility to provide seasonal color accent planting within the unplanted "crosshatch" voids in the existing raised landscape planter along Railroad Ave. 16. The property owner shall prepare and submit a draft parking management agreement for Planning Division review and approval that will serve to require restaurant and food market employees to park outside the on site parking area. The agreement shall be subject to review and approval by the PAGE 6 OF RESOLUTION N0.2007-24 Planning Division prior to occupancy of the restaurant tenant space. The approved agreement shall be referenced by all future commercial lease agreements involving the shopping center. 17. The property owner shall prepare and submit a draft truck delivery management plan for Planning Division review and approval that shall serve to regulate against early hour truck arrivals and deliveries that would be disruptive to surrounding residents while also regulating against arrival times/practices that would conflict with the functioning of the on site parking lot. 18. A minimum of three parking spaces along the south side of the food market shall be modified in size to allow these spaces to serve as unloading spaces for step-van sized delivery trucks (e.g., bread trucks). These spaces shall be appropriately identified for restricted use as delivery parking areas. *19. All mud or dirt carried off the construction site onto adjacent streets shall be swept each day. Water flushing of site debris or sediment or concrete washing is expressly prohibited. *20. Any damage to street improvements now existing or done during construction on or adjacent to the subject property shall be repaired to the satisfaction of the Engineering Division, at full expense to the developer. This shall include slurry seal, overlay or street reconstruction if deemed warranted by the Engineering Division. *21. All improvements within the public right-of-way, including curb, gutter, sidewalks, driveways, paving and utilities, shall be constructed in accordance with approved standards and/ or plans and shall comply with the standard plans and specifications of the Development Services Department and Chapters XII and XXXI of the Danville Municipal Code. At the time project improvement plans are submitted, the developer shall supply to the Engineering Division an up-to-date title report for the subject property. *22. Handicapped ramps shall be provided and located as required by the Engineering Division. *23. The project shall be constructed as approved.

Language to be included in the certificate, pertaining to allowable seating and corresponding parking requirements, shall be substantially consistent with the text shown in Attachment B of these conditions. The certificate shall be updated if subsequent building permits affecting the dining areas are secured and/or if changes to the layout and/or number of interior and/or exterior seating occurs. 6. Approval for Land Use Permit request DEV07-0053 is granted for a period of two years (runming until December 20, 2009). Upon making a determination that the original findings of approval continue to be valid for the project, the Town P1annulg Division may grant administrative extension(s) for up to an additional three years beyond the original permit period. In making its determination whether the extension(s), should be granted, the Town shall give particular attention to whether compliance to maximum interior and exterior seating limitations has occurred; whether the exterior dining has been limited to the approved area; whether adherence to the use limits set forth for the exterior seating area have been met, whether the areas impacted by the exterior seating have been kept in a clean and orderly condition, whether PAGE 10 OF RESOLUTION N0.2007-24 concerns about restaurant-generated noise and/or food cooking odor issues have surfaced after the restaurant is fully operational, and whether the intent and requirements of the associated .parking management agreement have been met.
