C-3836:
On July 22, 1964, The Alameda County Board of
Zoning Adjustment approved a Use Permit for the
Presbytery of San Francisco to construct a Church
facility on the subject property.
On August 21, 1967, the Alameda County Planning
Department approved a Use Permit to allow a
nursery school for a maximum of 26 students in an
A-2 (General Agriculture) and R-1-B-5 (Single
Family Residential) District for 3 years.
On September 23, 1970, the Alameda County Planning
Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit to
allow a nursery school for 24 children in an R-1-
B-E District for 3 years.
On July 11, 1973, the Alameda County Zoning
Administrator approved a Conditional Use Permit to
expand the existing Church, through the addition
of a new education building, and continue the
nursery school for 24 children per session.
On July 23, 1980, the Alameda County Zoning
Administrator approved a Conditional Use Permit to
allow the expansion of the existing Church by
addition of a new sanctuary and classrooms.
APPLICABLE REGULATIONS:
Section 8-26.3 a) of the Zoning Ordinance specifies that a
community facility, such as a church and daycare, is considered a
conditional use within the R-1 Single Family Residence District.
Section 8-94.0 states that conditional uses must be analyzed
to determine: 1) whether or not the use is required by the
public need; 2) whether or not the use will be properly related
to other land uses, transportation and service facilities in the
vicinity; 3) whether or not the use will materially affect the
health or safety of persons residing or working in the vicinity;
and 4) whether or not the use will be contrary to the specific
intent clauses or performance standards established for the
district in which it is located.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: This project has been found to be
Categorically exempt from CEQA under Section 15301, Class 1(e)(1)
of the California Environmental Quality Act guidelines. This use
consists of an addition to an existing structure which does not
result in an increase of more than fifty percent (50%) of the
floor area or more than 2,500 square feet.
NOTIFICATION: Public Notice of the January 21, 1992 hearing was
published in the local newspaper, mailed to adjacent property
owners, and posted in public buildings.

ANALYSIS:
Joseph DeCredico, representing John Knox Presbyterian
Church, has filed an application for Conditional Use Permit and
Site Development Review to allow the addition of approximately
790 square feet to the existing church facility, to accommodate
increased office and classroom area, as well as the temporary use
of an office trailer during construction, located at 7421
Amarillo Road.
The proposed addition involves extending the west wall of
the existing office/classroom out approximately fifteen feet to
the west, moving it closer to Amarillo Road. The proposed
addition will be designed to match the existing off-white stucco
walls and light brown asphalt and gravel roofing material
utilized on the existing church facility.
The existing preschool/co-op daycare use will continue to
provide services for up to 44 children, with no increase in
enrollment requested. The primary purpose of the proposed
expansion is to separate the office and classroom activities,
which are currently combined within the existing space. The
addition will accommodate three new offices, a larger
classroom/workroom for the children, a staff work room,
relocation and enlargement of the restrooms to comply with
handicap access requirements, and additional storage area for
office, classroom and janitorial supplies.
Upon a site inspection to the property, Staff noticed a
temporary trailer located within the parking lot. Staff was
informed by the Applicants that the trailer was to be used
temporarily, to accommodate the displaced office space during
construction of the proposed addition. No classroom activity is
to take place within the temporary office trailer. Staff
informed the Applicants that temporary trailers require Planning
and Building Department approval prior to installation.
The Applicants responded in a timely manner, submitting a
site plan and written statement describing the proposed use of
the temporary office trailer. Staff is including conditions of
approval to allow the temporary location of the office trailer
on -site during construction.
The existing site currently does not include provisions for
a trash enclosure. The City of Dublin Site Development Review
requirements require all new construction to provide trash
enclosures on site. Staff contacted representatives from the
John Knox Presbyterian Church and inform them of this
requirement. It was agreed upon to place a trash enclosure in
the northeast corner of the parking lot.
Staff has prepared Staff Study #1, dated January 9, 1992,
which identifies the location of a trash enclosure to be
installed within the parking lot (Attachment 3). The Applicant
will be required to submit details of the trash enclosure for
review and approval by the Planning Director, prior to issuance
of a building permit.
Adequate parking is provided on -site to accommodate the
proposed addition. The Zoning Ordinance requires 88 parking
spaces on -site and the existing parking lot provides 102 parking
spaces on -site.
Both the temporary office trailer and the construction of
the trash enclosure will eliminate available parking. The
temporary office trailer will temporarily eliminate three parking
spaces, while the trash enclosure will permanently eliminate two
parking spaces. Adequate parking (97 spaces provided, 88
required) will be maintained on site.
The application has been reviewed by the applicable City
departments and agencies and their comments have been
incorporated into the Conditions of Approval. Staff recommends
approval of the Applicant's request for Conditional Use Permit
and Site Development Review, subject to the conditions listed in
the draft resolutions (Exhibit B & C), respectively.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
FORMAT: 1) Open public hearing and hear Staff presentation.
2) Take testimony from Applicant and the public.
3) Question Staff, Applicant and the public.
4) Close public hearing and deliberate.
5) Adopt Draft Resolutions (Exhibits B & C) relating
to PA 91-095, or give Staff and Applicant
direction and continue the matter.
ACTION: Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the
Draft Resolutions approving Conditional Use Permit
(Exhibit B) and Site Development Review (Exhibit C)
relating to PA 91-095.

Statement and Request for Approval
John Knox Presbyterian Church is comprised of a social hall where weddings and services
are held each weekend, a series of classrooms for preschool/coop-daycare, several
supporting offices and workrooms/storage rooms. Currently, the Church draws
approximately 350 people each Sunday for religious services, provides its facilities for
weddings and other associated activities on Saturdays, and provides a licensed
preschool/coop-daycare for up to 44 children from Monday through Friday from 6 a.m.-6
p.m.. Employees number up to 11 during the weekdays for Church operations , as well as
7 full-time and 3 part-time instructors for preschool/coop-daycare The church grounds also
include two playgrounds, one for preschool and one for daycare, as well as parking for
105 cars. Two handicap spaces are currently provided.
John Knox Church is a community gathering place. It is situated in a quiet residential area,
with many of its members walking to services or to use its other facilities. The Architecture
of Church is residential in scale. The complex is broken into a series of buildings
surrounding a courtyard and emphasizing the connection of indoor and outdoor space. All
buildings have pitched roofs which compliment the neighborhood, and the stucco and
wood sided walls, wood doors and aluminum windows further define its residential
character. The complex is not located on a hazardous waste or substance site.
Currently, there is not enough support space for the Church employees, and access to two
of the classrooms is through the Women's restroom. Neither the Men's nor the Women's
restrooms is handicap accessible. The 1,312 square foot addition to the Church will
consist of:
1. Relocating both restrooms and enlarging them to provide handicap access.
2. Separating a classroom/workroom from their supporting offices to provide a
positive working environment for staff members as well as a larger
classroom/workroom for the preschooUcoop-daycare children. Previously,
the two classrooms were also equipped with desks and doubled as offices.
The addition and remodel adds three new offices and a staff work room.
3 . Creating much needed storage space for the classroom and office supplies
and a Janitor's closet.
4. Creating a corridor of 1-hour fire rated construction to allow for ease of
movement between the existing offices and the new offices.
The single most important aspect of the addition and remodel is that it provides a larger and
more supportive environment for the preschool/coop-daycare facility. This facility has for
many years provided for an essential service to the community as a secure productive
learning center for neighborhood children. Now, the needs of the children and their
teachers have outgrown the present building space. This minor addition will provide the
space which is currently necessary.
In addition, the complexity of the Church management has increased through the years, and
it too has outgrown the current allocated space. Present storage space is so tight that the
Church uses a coat closet as file storage. A single person sized office is currently used for
two staff members, reproduction equipment and computer operations. The addition and
remodel will allow Church staff members to respond to the community needs in a more
efficient and organized manner.
Since no new positions are being added to the Church staff, the impact on the traffic
patterns of the community will be negligible. The off-street parking is more than adequate

by current requirements. There is a need for one additional handicap parking space which
will be provided as part of this project.
The land area to be impacted is currently an oversized concrete walkway which is seldom
used. Although the affected wing will be 15 feet closer to the street, it will remain well
within the setbacks and will not adversely impact the current landscaping. The image of the
Church from the street will not significantly change.
The design approach of the addition is contextual. Every effort has been made to respect
the surrounding community, it lifestyle and its architecture. The proportions of the
addition, its detailing and its materials and colors will match that of the existing facilities.
We request you grant permission for this addition and remodel to the John Knox
Presbyterian Church.
