19 Townhomes Proposed for North Foothill

AlphaX RE Capital has filed a formal application to build 25 for-sale townhomes at 10012 and 10050 North Foothill Boulevard and 22467 Stevens Creek Boulevard in Cupertino, according to the city’s project page. The filing was submitted on May 12, 2026, and the city lists the proposal as under review. The project would replace an existing single-story office building, a veterinary clinic and a single-family home on about 0.99 net acres near the intersection of North Foothill Boulevard and Stevens Creek Boulevard. (cupertino.gov) The proposal is being processed under Senate Bill 330, the Housing Accountability Act and state Density Bonus law. City records available on the project page do not match the 19-unit figure that appeared in some early coverage. Cupertino’s current project summary says the application calls for 25 townhomes, including 21 market-rate units and four affordable units. (cupertino.gov) A site plan posted by the city shows unit numbering through 25 and marks four below-market-rate units as preliminary locations. ### Why does the city’s own file show 25 homes instead of 19? Cupertino’s major-project page says the formal application submitted May 12 covers 25 for-sale townhomes, and that page is the clearest current public description of the proposal. The same page identifies the requested approvals as Architectural and Site Approval, a Tentative Map and a Tree Removal Permit. (cupertino.gov) A city-posted architectural site plan dated May 5, 2026 also aligns with the 25-unit count. The drawing labels units up to No. 25 and notes four below-market-rate units, with locations subject to change. ### Where would the project go, and what is there now? (cupertino.gov) The three parcels named by Cupertino are 10012 North Foothill Boulevard, 10050 North Foothill Boulevard and 22467 Stevens Creek Boulevard. Cupertino says the site totals about 0.99 net acres and sits near the intersection of North Foothill Boulevard and Stevens Creek Boulevard. The city’s application summary says the redevelopment would remove three existing uses: a single-story office building, a veterinary clinic and a single-family home. (cupertino.gov) The listed land use is commercial, office and residential, and the zoning is shown as P (OA) and R1-10. ### What approvals is AlphaX RE Capital asking for? (cupertino.gov) The application numbers listed by Cupertino are ASA-2026-002, TM-2026-001 and TR-2026-025. Those correspond to Architectural and Site Approval, a Tentative Map and a Tree Removal Permit, according to the city’s project page. The same page says the applicant is seeking density-bonus waivers and concessions tied to setbacks, height, floor-area ratio, and the size and dispersal of below-market-rate units. (cupertino.gov) Cupertino says the proposal is being reviewed under state housing laws that can streamline local review for qualifying projects. ### How much affordable housing is included? (cupertino.gov) Cupertino says four of the 25 homes would be affordable units. The city’s site plan labels those as below-market-rate units and says their locations are preliminary. The project page does not list sale prices, income targets or bedroom counts for the affordable homes. It does say the development would be for-sale housing rather than apartments. (cupertino.gov) ### Has the Planning Commission taken it up yet? The Planning Commission did not hear this North Foothill proposal at its May 12, 2026 meeting, according to the published meeting details. The only public-hearing item listed for that meeting was a separate 27-townhome SummerHill Homes project on Bandley Drive. (cupertino.gov) Cupertino’s meetings calendar shows the Planning Commission’s next regular meeting is scheduled for May 26, 2026, at 6:45 p.m. at 10350 Torre Avenue, Council Chamber, and via teleconference. (cupertino.gov) As of the city pages reviewed, no hearing date for the North Foothill project was posted on the project page. ### What should neighbors watch next? Cupertino says the application is currently under review, which means the city is still processing the formal filing rather than presenting it for a final decision. (cupertino.gov) The project page directs residents to the city’s agendas and minutes pages for any future public meeting or hearing tied to the proposal. November 3, 2026 is the SB 330 vesting date listed on Cupertino’s project page. (cupertino.legistar.com) Before then, the next public signposts are likely to be a posted hearing notice, an agenda item for the Planning Commission, and any updated plans released through the city’s major-project file.
