Consideration of Bundy Village, an 11.5-acre medical facilities and senior housing project in West L.A., now moves to the Los Angeles City Council after the city’s Planning Commission on Thursday endorsed a downsized version of the developer’s original plans.

The commission’s 8-0 approval came after the developer, Stonebridge Holdings Inc., agreed to downsize parts of the planned development, which is slated for the northwest corner of Bundy Drive at Olympic Boulevard. Stonebridge also agreed to reduce the height of one of the project’s five buildings from 13 to nine stories and revised streetscape and traffic mitigation plans.

“Receiving approval would not have been possible without the efforts of our team and the community, with whom we have been working with for the past several years to design a project that creates greater access to urgently needed services,” said Stonebridge President Michael Lombardi in a statement.

In total, the 1 million-square-foot Bundy Village will include retail, medical facilities and 385 housing units. The building that now has been downsized will include most of the project’s senior housing.

The development has been the subject of controversy, with several protests against it by area residents and businesspeople. It has been opposed by West L.A.-based Kilroy Realty Corp., which owns a large media and entertainment office project directly across the street on Olympic.

Attorney Benjamin Reznick, Kilroy’s legal representative, said other landlords in the area also oppose the project on grounds that it is inconsistent with media and entertainment office uses in the area. The project is “too large for that site and the constraints of the streets there,” said Reznick, who plans to continue raise those concerns with the City Council.

The project next goes to a council committee for review.
