Kim-Mai Cutler added,
They do that bc there's no mass transit station in Cupertino unlike Palo Alto, Menlo Park and Mountain View.
If there was a connector line from there to say Sunnyvale Caltrain, the downtown would be able to handle more density.
Almost all other Bay Area cities have similar requirements, as far as I'm aware. (And they're so painfully misconceived.)
Mountain View is experimenting with lowering theirs. But the main objection in Cupertino is often that there's no Caltrain, VTA or BART.
Apple is also an $800B co and if they were able to pressure the city to let them build a $5B donut, they could have pressured them to do
Other things like plan shared transit better. It's a two-way negotiation and this one turned out poorly from a systems perspective (but
Then again, Jobs always liked having closed, wholly controlled systems that didn't play with others).
Stripe isn't an $800B co, but our experience has been that proposing even slightest deviation to code is miserable, soul-sapping experience.
