Phase 1), and a four-story 89,775-square-foot patient tower, a 1,800-square-foot generator yard,

rooms, waiting rooms, and medical imaging rooms. The project includes the reconfiguration of
surface parking, addition of bicycle parking spaces, realignment of an existing bicycle path and

exterior lighting. The project also includes the merging of Assessor Parcel Number (APN) 003-
