Story Poles Site of Future Bank on Orinda Way

The City of Orinda's Planning Commission recently held a public hearing to consider commercial use permit applications, architectural design, and other matters related to the proposed construction by property owner Hooshang Hadjian of a new 4,100 square foot building for a Chase Bank with retail space on the 20,473 square foot lot at 25A Orinda Way. "While four of the six commission members present at the March 11 meeting indicated support for the proposed bank use on the site, no formal action was taken," said Emmanuel Ursu, Orinda's planning director. Commissioners "expressed concern with several aspects of the proposed site layout including the inefficient parking design and the relationship of the proposal to surrounding public and private spaces," he added. Additionally, the commission is currently in transition as two members begin new terms while two others depart. The commission will take up the matter again at a future meeting, according to Ursu, when Callison Architects will present, in a workshop format, site plan and building design options to address the concerns that were raised.
