The project is in the late stages of approval by San Jose officials and is headed for a final decision by the City Council following its endorsement by the municipality’s Planning Commission. The development consists of housing and a large office building that would be built at 1655 Berryessa Road in San Jose on a site that’s slightly more than 13 acres, according to the proposal that’s being shepherded through the approval process by Borelli Investment Co., a real estate firm, and The Schoennauer Co., a land-use consultant.
