SECTION 1. RECITALS
A. The State of California requires cities and counties to adopt a comprehensive, long-term
General Plan for the physical development of the City.
B. The Housing Element is one of seven mandated elements of the General Plan and must
address the existing and projected housing needs for all economic segments of the
community.
C. State law requires Housing Elements to be updated and certified by the California
Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) every eight years.
D. The City of Dublin prepared the 2023 - 2031 Housing Element in accordance with State
law, and is currently under review by HCD.
E. The Housing Element must include an inventory of specific sites or parcels that are suitable
for residential development and available for use in the planning period to accommodate
the City's Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), which is included as Appendix D:
Adequate Sites Analysis in the 2023 - 2031 Housing Element.
F. A portion of the remaining need is proposed to be accommodated on Sites D-2 and E-2
(APNs: 986-0034-012-00 and 986-0034-014-00) at the Dublin Transit Center, and
Hacienda Crossings Shopping Center (APNs: 986-0008-009-00 AND 986-0008-010-00).
G. If the Housing Element is certified by the California Department of Housing and Community
Development (HCD) after January 31, 2022, State law requires the City to complete the
rezones required by the adopted 2023-2031 Housing Element by January 31, 2024.
H. The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), together with the CEQA Guidelines and
City of Dublin CEQA Guidelines and Procedures require that certain projects be reviewed
for environmental impacts and that environmental documents be prepared.
I. The City prepared an Initial Study for the 2023 - 2031 Housing Element and corresponding
General Plan Amendments, Specific Plan Amendments, and rezonings, (which are
collectively referred to as the "Project") which found there was no substantial evidence that
the project would have a significant adverse effect on the environment and, therefore,
