Earlier this week we told you that the Cupertino City Council had voted unanimously to approve Apple’s planning application for its new spaceship campus with a final vote expected next month on November 15th. Today the City of Cupertino posted the video above of a press conference held to announce the Apple Campus 2 approval. The press conference was held yesterday and attended by Cupertino Mayor Orrin Mahoney and Apple’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Peter Oppenheimer.

Apple is expected to break ground and begin construction of the new campus later this month and begin moving in employees by 2016.
