CUPERTINO — Plans to turn the old Vallco Shopping Mall into a massive housing, office and retail complex can proceed full-steam ahead after the developer won a decisive victory in court Wednesday.

Concluding a lengthy battle over the project — which would bring 2,402 apartments, 400,000 square feet of retail and 1.8 million square feet of office space to Cupertino — a Santa Clara County Superior Court judge ruled city officials did not err when they green-lighted the development and gave it fast-track status. The ruling is a major win for YIMBY and pro-development activists, and a heavy blow to some other community members who have been fighting tooth-and-nail against various iterations of this project for years.
