Cupertino officials sent a response to the California Department of Housing and Community Development earlier this month, defending their reading of the timeline developers have to resubmit a preliminary application per the Permit Streamlining Act.

The development could replace the existing Bandley Center, a commercial building home to a local tax business, a Chinese language school, a clay studio, and a couple of small law and architecture offices.
