Although the Planmng CommissIon had authorIty to reVIew the draft Ordinance approvmg the Planned Development Rezone and make recommendahons to the City Council, as well as adopt a Resolution approving the SIte Development Review, the Applicant was madvertently unable to attend the Planning CommisSIOn's Pubhc Hearmg. The Planmng Commission raIsed a number of concerns; however, felt it was problematic to discuss these Issues without the Apphcant bemg present. The Applicant's representatIve requested that the Planmng Commission forward the project to the Council rather than contmue the project to a future Plannmg CommISSIOn meehng. The CommIssion agreed that it would state its concerns with the project for the record and refer hearmg jurisdichon to the City Council. Mayor Lockhart stated that It was unusual for the Apphcant to bypass the Planmng CommISSlOn process, and mdIcated that it was very Important that the Planmng CommiSSlOn hear Issues and dISCUSS them before they were presented to the Council. The Planning CommiSSlOn's comments should be heard m tonight's dIScussIon because they worked very hard and dId theIr homework, and had vahd comments. The Council concurred. Planmng Commission Chmr Bill Schaub expressed concern about the proposed store front, as well as the proposed green screen tower element. The green screen was too tall, and plants do not grow well on them. The split cmderblock was not appropriate for the area, and there were several alternahves. The plans for the proposed plaza were unclear and needed more explanatIon. Planmng Commission ChaIr Schaub expressed concern regardmg architecture and conSIstency WIth the Downtown Core Specific Plan DeSIgn Guidelmes, and showed shdes WIth examples of buildIng architecture and plaza elements which he felt were more approprIate for this locatIon. Planning CommIssIoner Morgan King adVIsed that many of the proposed elements were not m accordance with the Downtown Specific Plan and expressed his concern WIth the proposed size and placement of the Village Green plaza, the parkmg situation, the lack of pedestrIan opportunity, the dIrection of the eXIsting store fronts, and the medIOCrIty of the proposed buildmg design and archItecture. The mflexibility of the property owner's CC&R's was a concern, as well. In his opmIon, the Village Green plaza plan needed to be more clearly defined, and a deSIgn standard implemented. A lot of work went mto the Downtown Specific Plan, and It should be conSIdered when thIS project was contemplated. DUBLIN nT\' COUN('IL MINUTES VOLUME 25 REGULAR MEETING May 16,2006 PAGE 167 ~ Planmng CommISSIoner Robert Fasulkey agreed that the Planning CommissIOn put a lot of effort into the crafting of the SpecIfic Plan, and the Apphcant might not fully understand what the Specific plan was requesting and the vision of the area. He urged the Council to vote against this project tonight unless there was a lot of flexibility to come before them. Planmng Commission Doreen wehrenberg expressed the same concerns. Overall, It was a mce project, but extra deSIgn help was needed. Mayor Lockhart thanked the Planning CommISSlOn for expressing its concerns before the Council. It was unfortunate that the CommISSlOn was not allowed to do its job. She asked the Applicant to address several Items of concern to the Planning CommissIon, mcluding: flat roof vs. gables, green tower, stacked rock vs. cinder block, the plaza area, and outdoor dimng space. Mayor Lockhart asked Staff If, with other development happenmg m the area, there were other opportumtIes for the green space or a plaza area. Could this development meet ItS responsibility and still look for other plaza space m that vIcImty? She was not convmced that the Target parking lot would be the appropnate place for a plaza. Community Development DIrector Jerl Ram adVIsed that there were changes occurrIng along Amador Plaza Road, and It was possible, as part of the new Downtown Plan bemg worked on, that addIhonal area for plazas or a Dublm green could be identified. Alicia Diaz, Vice President of Mayfield Gentry Realty AdVIsors, extended a formal apology to the PlannIng Commission and explained that the princIpal of the company did have all intention to attend the Planning Commission meetmg; however, he was delayed due to traffic. Every effort had been made to meet the CIty'S expectahons of the project. Unfortunately, there was very httle flexibihty m the CC&R's, whIch were negotiated between several property owners. There have been problems WIth green screens and waterIng of vegetahon including trees m the overall property area, whIch would be addressed by enlarged budgets and capItal improvements m the landscapIng plans. From the beginning, the Applicant had. taken a very collaborative approach with Staff regarding the design of the building. The Applicant was willing to work WIth Staff regarding the Issue of spht cmderblock vs. stacked rock, and looking at addItional archItectural interest WIth respect to the fascia of the building. There would be concern about the degree of further footprmt artlCulahon that may be requested and its impact on the mterior footprmts. The plaza area was mtended to be a combinahon of restaurant space and pubhc access. DUBLIN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 25 REGULAR MEETING May 16,2006 PAGE 168 ~ Mr. Leom, Project ArchItect, advised that the proposed flat roof was a response to the surroundmg facilities and to provIde umty to the rest of the shopping center. Landscapmg was a very Important element, and the green screen provided a sIgnature element to the facihty. The cmderblock was mcluded to provide artIculation to the buildmg form, but could be easily changed to another matenal. There was an effort design the building to face every direchon. The Council, Staff and the Apphcant entered mto a diSCUSSIOn regardmg the challenges such as landscaping, the dIrection of the store fronts, softemng the store fronts, possibly adding a water element, and defining the plaza area. Ms. Diaz advised that fiscally they could not start from scratch on the project, but they would be wilhng to work wIth Staff to address the Council's concerns. Mayor Lockhart closed the pubhc hearing. Mr. Baker indicated that the Council could contmue the item to the next Council meeting m order to address the Council's concerns, or include conditions m the Site Development Review to address their concerns. The Council discussed the dIfferent alternatlves and agreed to contmue this item the next Council meehng and dIrected Staff to address the followIng Issues m the Staff Report: 1) the store fronts should have a softer appearance; 2) use stacked rock instead of cmderblock; 3) mclude an art fountam or water element in heu of the green screen tower; 4) consider any alternatives to make plan less boxy without interfering WIth net square footage; 5) and proVIde different heIghts in roof elements WIthout the tower element on the building. Mr Baker asked if the Council would like the fountain element, which would typically be included m part of the deSIgn review and an element of the project, to be included m the design of the plaza that was brought back before the Council at the June 6th meeting. CIty Manager Ambrose advised that, If the art was gOIng to be part of the water feature, the amount would need to be negotlated. In order not to hold up the project, the water element desIgn could be pulled out of the Planned Development and included It m the SIte Development Review. The Planned Development could be heard on June 6t1l, and the SIte Development ReVIew could be heard at the June 13lh Adjourned Regular Meeting, along WIth the second readmg of the PD Ordmance.
