and costs (including without limitation, attorney’s fees and costs and fees of litigation) (collectively,
“Liability”) of every nature arising out of or in connection with Contractor’s performance of the Services or
its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this Agreement, except such Liability caused by
the sole negligence or willful misconduct of City.
The Contractor’s obligation to defend and indemnify shall not be excused because of the Contractor’s
inability to evaluate Liability or because the Contractor evaluates Liability and determines that the
Contractor is not liable to the claimant. The Contractor must respond within 30 days, to the tender of any
80
Services Agreement between January 10, 2023
City of Dublin and Slide Guys Restoration, Inc. Page 9 of 15
claim for defense and indemnity by the City, unless this time has been extended by the City. If the

other remedy authorized by law, so much of the money due the Contractor under and by virtue of this
Agreement as shall reasonably be considered necessary by the City, may be retained by the City until
disposition has been made of the claim or suit for damages, or until the Contractor accepts or rejects the
tender of defense, whichever occurs first.
Notwithstanding the forgoing, to the extent this Agreement is a “construction contract” as defined by
California Civil Code Section 2782, as may be amended from time to time, such duties of Contractor to
indemnify shall not apply when to do so would be prohibited by California Civil Code Section 2782.

under this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or the California Public Employees
Retirement System (PERS) to be eligible for enrollment in PERS as an employee of City, Contractor shall
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the payment of any employee and/or employer contributions
for PERS benefits on behalf of Contractor or its employees, agents, or subcontractors, as well as for the
payment of any penalties and interest on such contributions, which would otherwise be the responsibility of
City.

ESTIMATED TIME VALUE OF PROJECT – 7 to 10 DAYS
– WEATHER PERMITTING –
PREMIUM PRODUCTS WE USE
Ashland Gel-Kote /Premium grade Vinyl Ester blend grade filler / 3M-4000 marine grade caulk /
Epoxy Vinyl Ester Resin / Amerlock Clear Primer / PSX-700 Polysiloxane paint (marine grade) /
Fiberglass – 1.5 oz. chop Mat & Biaxial 1088 /Acetone / 3M Super Duty Compound
Gel coat refers to the interior coating on fiberglass slides and is the only coating to be used to protect
the underlying fiberglass, per the manufacturer. White gel is recommended for more maintenance free,
because white gel looks cleaner even when light oxidation is present.
Paint is only applied to the exterior of slides. A commercial marine grade paint is the only coating
suitable for slides exterior coating per manufacturer's recommendations.
Oxidation should be removed annually with a professional maintenance plan. Oxidation build up results
in drag for riders and acts like sandpaper, scuffing mills of gel off slide when riders go down the slide.
Thinning gel is when mils are removed slowly over time with regular usage of slide, chemicals, weather,
oxidation, and annual polish & buff. A slide that has the proper mils of gel coat applied (18-24mls)
should last 8 to 10 years, if maintained properly.
Failed coatings Gel or paint– The coating lift, bubbles, peels. This may result from Incorrect product use,
not mixed/applied properly, unsuitable weather conditions during application, or coating was not
applied according to industry standards. Solution: Re-gel or repaint with Amerlock primer. Failed
coatings compromise the fiberglass.
Only use Vinyl Ester Blend Grade Filler will be used for repairs.
Polish & Wax is a cosmetic refurbish. Structural refurbishment is defined as an obvious threat to the
guests. Unless otherwise specified, in the work description above, structural refurbishment is not
included in the proposal nor price. If Structural refurbishment is required and is not noted on the
proposal to repair/refurbish, a change order will be required to include the refurbishment / repair.

Application Questions
What knowledge do you have of the programs offered through the Parks and Community Services Department? Have you or a
family member participated in a program sponsored by the Department?
The department offers a wide range of recreational, educational, and community-oriented programs and services. These include things like
coordinating the offerings within in the seasonal activity guides; planning various festivals and events (e.g. St Patrick’s Day, Splatter, the new
night market); managing our various parks, trails, and facilities (e.g. The Wave); and art & community programs (e.g. public art murals &
displays, People of the Parks).
Yes, my family and I have enjoyed many of these programs and facilities since moving to Dublin 4+ years ago. For instance, we march in the St
Patrick’s Day parade every year as part of our daughter ’s school contingent (fun fact: I’ve been the school mascot for 2 years), and we greatly
enjoy the food and vendor market after the parade. We also participated in the Shamrock 5K Fun Run this year and hope to make it an
annual tradition.
I’ve also signed up my daughter for many of the youth sports and arts classes through the activity guide; and we’ve also participated as a
family in many holiday events listed there, like the Ghosts of Dublin graveyard tour, and Breakfast with Santa. We’ve also been to The Wave
many times – almost every summer!
How do you feel about user fees for recreation programs and park/facility reservations?
In an ideal world, I’d prefer for our core facilities and programs to be offered free, or at minimal charge, especially for Dublin residents. While I
understand that we need money to pay for upkeep and other needs, I’d point out that we do pay for them through our taxes. There is also a
philosophical consideration where we can decide as a community what things we value enough to offer as public goods at low to no cost for
the benefit of all, especially to those who are less able to afford them. Not everything should be seen through just cost perspectives.
That said, I also understand the need for some balance in offering free services and charging for things, especially value-added options. For
example, while I would lean more towards having free-to-low charges for entry to The Wave, I’d be more open to charging for facility rentals,
like reserving cabanas at The Wave or picnic areas at our various parks.
How do you feel about making a decision for the overall good of the community but unpopular with neighbors, residents, or
organizations?
Making “unpopular decisions”, if justifiable and is truly in the best interests of the community, isn’t something I’d shy away from.
Leaders should strive to make the best decisions for all, especially if they have additional information and insight that outsiders do not.
Leadership shouldn’t be seen as a popularity contest where the aim is to please people without regard to the actual impact of the decisions
that are made. On the other hand, leading is also not about making decisions without regard for other people’s views. Leaders should be
transparent and seek to understand different perspectives, especially for contentious issues.
What is the most important contribution you can make as a member of the Parks and Community Services Commission?
I am a user experience researcher by profession. In my job, I use data and user research to inform decision-making for systems and services.
In a nutshell, I know how to make things easier and better for people.
But leading and making decisions on issues that impact people isn’t just about reading numbers and facts in a cold, calculated way. My
background, including a previous career in communications, has given me great people-centric perspectives, empathy, and soft skills to work
collaboratively with others, as well as understanding the value of hearing from the people whom we serve.
Why are you interested in serving on the Parks and Community Services Commission?
My family and I have enjoyed living here, in part due to the many facilities, services, and events that the Parks and Community Services
Department manages. Dublin is our home and I want to do my part to help serve our community and give back to our city.
And what better way to do that than to step up to answer a call to fill an unexpected vacancy on commission and work to further improve the
same facilities, services, and events that my family and I have grown to love?
In what organizations are you currently a member? Please list.
I am an active participant in the Parent-Faculty Club of Murray Elementary (where our daughter attends), and have volunteered in many of
the PFC’s and the school’s community and fundraising activities.
I am also a member of the Dublin USD’s Citizens Bond Oversight Committee, an independent citizen body that oversees the spending of bond
funds for major school projects in our city.
Additionally, I was recently on the Parks and Community Services Department’s Art Selection Committee for the new mural art by our library –
an engagement that I enjoyed contributing towards.

What knowledge do you have of the City-owned community facilities in Dublin, such as the Dublin Senior Center, Shannon
Community Center, or The Wave? Have you or a family member rented facilities with the City of Dublin?
I am familiar with all 3 of those facilities, having attended events at all of them and, with The Wave, enjoyed family outings there during the
summer.
We have not had the opportunity to rent facilities with the city, but only because we didn’t need to. However, I’m certainly familiar with the
concept and have attended events where others have rented facilities, whether a hall at the Senior Center to host a school event, or picnic
facilities for a birthday party at a local park, or something else.
How can the City provide better equity and inclusion to all persons that use our parks, trails, and facilities, and access our
programs?
As I had implied in my earlier response, public goods and facilities would be more inclusive and open for all if they were free (like our public
parks) or more affordable (especially to residents). Cost is always a major consideration and barrier.
Other ways we can prioritize equity and inclusion can be things like ensuring facilities are more easily accessible and welcoming to people of
different cultures and national origins, as Dublin has a significant and diverse immigrant population.
This might mean ensuring that language isn’t a major barrier, or that we provide a welcoming and safe environment for people who might
have different beliefs or backgrounds.
Similarly, we should also consider aspects like accessibility, age, and sexual orientation, to ensure that no one in our community feels left out.
That said, I am happy to see as an ordinary resident that the city already implements many of these considerations in what it does.

STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL
Page 1 of 3
Agenda Item 5.6
DATE: January 13, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Colleen Tribby, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Revisions to the Personnel System
Prepared by: Sarah Monnastes, Human Resources Director
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will consider proposed updates to the City’s Personnel System, including
revisions to the Classification Plan and Salary Plan related to part-time job classifications.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the following: 1) Resolution Amending the Classification Plan; and 2) Resolution
Amending the Salary Plan for Part-Time Personnel.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The proposed salary adjustments will result in an estimated annual increase of approximately
$31,000 in total personnel costs. The impact to the current fiscal year is approximately
$15,000, which can be absorbed within the adopted Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget. No additional
appropriations are required as a result of this action.
DESCRIPTION:
Background
Pursuant to the City’s Personnel System Rules, a job description must be adopted for each
classification within the organization. These job descriptions define the essential duties,
responsibilities, qualifications, and requirements associated with each position and serve as
the foundation of the City’s Classification Plan. The Personnel System Rules also require City
Council approval of the Salary Plan, which is periodically updated to ensure continued
alignment with operational and regulatory requirements.
The proposed action includes updates to both the Classification Plan and Salary Plan to reflect
current operational needs, industry standards, and applicable regulatory requirements.
122
Page 2 of 3
Analysis
Part-Time Classifications
A resolution amending the Classification Plan is included as Attachment 1 to this Staff Report.
The proposed action adopts updated job descriptions for the City’s Recreation and Aquatics
classifications, including Recreation Leader I, Recreation Leader II, Recreation Leader III,
Slide Attendant, Lifeguard, Head Lifeguard, Pool Manager, and Program Specialist
(Attachments 2 through 9). The updated classifications reflect a comprehensive review of job
duties, responsibilities, and qualification requirements to ensure consistency with current
operational practices and service delivery needs.
The revisions clarify levels of responsibility, supervisory expectations, and role distinctions
across classifications and standardize language related to safety requireme nts, emergency
response, and program operations. These updates promote consistency across classifications,
enhance organizational clarity, and support effective recruitment, training, and performance
management. Redline versions of the updated job descript ions are included as Attachments 11
through 18 for reference.
Salary Plan Amendment
Included in the City’s Personnel System are resolutions that address salary ranges for City
personnel. A resolution amending the Salary Plan is included as Attachment 10. This
resolution would amend the salary ranges for part-time classifications in response to the State
of California’s minimum wage increases effective January 1, 2026. Under state law, the
minimum wage is adjusted annually based on changes in the Consumer Price Index for Urban
Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W). For 2026, the Department of Finance calculated
an increase resulting in a statewide minimum wage of $16.90 per hour, representing an
approximate 2.49 percent adjustment, equal to $.40 cents an hour.
In response, the proposed salary updates adjust both the minimum and maximum ranges for
all part-time classifications, with the exception of the intern classification. Adjusting both ends
of the salary range for the part time classifications ensures continued compliance with state
law while also maintaining internal equity across classifications and preserving established pay
relationships. These adjustments also support employees’ ability to progress appropriately
within their salary ranges as experience and responsibility increase.
The proposed changes do not alter staffing levels or organizational structure. However, nearly
all part-time employees will receive an hourly increase of $.40. These adjustments ensure the
City’s compensation framework remains compliant with state wage requirements, competitive
within the labor market, and aligned with established internal classification relationships.
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
None.
NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH:
The City Council Agenda was posted.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In accordance with the Alameda County Superior Court’s July 30, 2025 order in the matter of
Kingswood Owners Association v. City of Dublin (Case No. 24CV087642) and the Court’s
further November 19, 2025 decision issuing a writ in this matter, the City Council will ratify,
reaffirm, and readopt the Council’s prior statements of overriding considerations for the
Eastern Dublin Specific Plan as applied specifically to the specific Dublin Fallon 580 Project.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Statement of Overriding Considerations for the Dublin Fallon 580 Project.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
All costs associated with the processing of the Planning Applications are borne by the
Applicant.
DESCRIPTION:
Background
On July 16, 2024, the City Council held a public hearing to consider the Dublin Fallon 580
Project , which included eliminating the Public/Semi-Public land use designation, converting
42.6 acres designated Open Space to Parks/Public-Recreation, establishing development
standards for the future development of 238 residential units, up to 3,299,670 square feet of
commercial/campus office use, and subdividing the 192-acre site into 11 parcels. The City
Council’s action included adopting Resolution No. 84-24 approving the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) addendum and General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific
Plan Amendment and adopting Resolution No. 85-24 approving the Vesting Tentative Tract
Maps. The City Council also introduced Ordinances to allow a Zoning Map amendment,
Planned Development Zoning Stage 1 and 2 Development Plan amendments, and a
211
Page 2 of 2
Development Agreement.
On August 20, 2024, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 05-24 and Ordinance No. 06-24
for the Zoning Map amendment, Planned Development Zoning Stage 1 and 2 amendments
and the Development Agreement. These actions are collectively referred to herein as the
Project approvals.
The Kingswood Owners Association sued the City alleging that the Project approvals violated
CEQA on numerous grounds. After trial, the Alameda County Superior Court found that the
City’s analysis of environmental impacts of the Project complied with CEQA. However, the
Court also concluded that because the Project would contribute to significant and unavoidable
environmental impacts the City previously identified in prior CEQA documents (including the
1993 Eastern Dublin Specific Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR), the 2002 East Dublin
Properties Stage 1 Development Plan and Annexation Supplemental EIR, and the 2005 Fallon
Village Supplemental EIR), the City was required to adopt a new statement of overriding
considerations for the Project in order to fully comply with CEQA.
In accordance with the Alameda County Superior Court’s July 30, 2025 order in the matter of
Kingswood Owners Association v. City of Dublin (Case No. 24CV087642) and the Court’s
further November 19, 2025 decision issuing a writ in this matter, Staff requests that the City
Council adopt the attached statement of overriding considerations specific to the Dublin Fallon
580 Project that ratifies, readopts, and supplements the City’s prior statements of overriding
considerations for the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan and related approvals.

DUBLIN-FALLON 580 PROJECT
STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS
The City Council has prepared the following statement of overriding considerations
specific to the Dublin Fallon 580 Project (the “Project”) based on, and incorporating by
reference, the City’s statements of overriding considerations for the Eastern Dublin
Specific Plan and related approvals as further discussed below.
1. Eastern Dublin Specific Plan Overview
In 1988, the City responded to several proposals for development of the largely agricultural,
ranching, and rural properties in the eastern portion of the City and unincorporated Alameda
County by preparing a draft General Plan Amendment (“GPA”) for an app roximately 6,920-acre
area known as Eastern Dublin. The GPA amended existing land use categories of the Dublin
General Plan to include residential, commercial/industrial, and parks and open space. At full
buildout, the area encompassing the GPA planned for development of approximately 17,970 new
housing units and 10.6 million square feet of new commercial space. The City also prepared the
Eastern Dublin Specific Plan (EDSP), which concurrently analyzed future development within a
3,228-acre portion of the GPA. The EDSP projected approximately 12,448 new housing units and
10.9 million square feet of commercial space, amounting to 70% and 94% of the GPA’s anticipated
development scope.
2. Overview of Dublin-Fallon 580 Project
The EDSP project includes the residential and commercial mixed-use development of the
approximately 192-acre Dublin Fallon 580 property located in the eastern portion of Dublin
(Assessor’s Parcel Numbers [APN]: 905-0001-006-03; 985-0027-002; 985-0027-005; 985-0027-
004) (the “Project site”). The Project site is located east of Fallon Road and north of Interstate 580
(I-580). Croak Road divides the Project site from north to south and the future Dublin Boulevard
Extension Project bisects the property from west to east. The Project site is located within the
Fallon Village area within the EDSP.1
The Project site is one of the last remaining areas in the existing urban, mixed use, residential and
commercial development planned for Eastern Dublin pursuant to the EDSP. The Project consists
of a total of 238 medium high density residential units on “Parcel 7” and “Parcel 8,” which together
comprise approximately 14 acres, and up to 3,299,670 square feet of commercial/office uses on
approximately 126.3 acres. The Project includes conversion of approximately 42 acres from Open
Space zoning to Parks/Public Recreation zoning.
The City Council considered the Dublin Fallon 580 Project, PLPA-2023-00033 (Project) on July
16, 2024. The Project includes the following planning actions and entitlements: 1) a General Plan
and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan (EDSP) amendments to change land use designations, 2) a
Planned Development (PD) Zoning Stage 1 Development Plan amendment, 3) a Stage 2

Development Plan for the residential portion of the project, 4) Vesting Tentative Tract Maps Nos.
8663, 8666, and 8667, 5) a Development Agreement, and 6) an Addendum to the EDSP
Environmental Impact Reports (EIR). These actions are collectively referred to herein as the
“Project” approvals.
3. EDSP Statement of Overriding Considerations
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15093, the City Council of the City of Dublin adopted
findings and a Statement of Overriding Considerations for those impacts identified in the Eastern
Dublin Specific Plan Environmental Impact Reports (EIR) that were significant and unavoidable
(Resolution No. 53-93, May 10, 1993). The City Council carefully considered each impact in its
decision to approve urbanization of Eastern Dublin through approval of the Eastern Dublin General
Plan Amendment and Specific Plan (EDSP) project.
The City Council’s 1993 EDSP Statement of Overriding Considerations included the impacts
resulting from the development of the EDSP area including the Project site. The City Council also
adopted Statements of Overriding Considerations for the East Dublin Properties Stage 1
Development Plan and Annexation Supplemental EIR (2002) (the “EDPO Supplemental EIR”) and
the Fallon Village Supplemental EIR (2005), which likewise included the Project site. Pursuant to
a 2002 court decision as reaffirmed by the Alameda County Superior Court’s July 30, 2025, Order
Granting Writ of Mandate in Kingswood Owners Association v. City of Dublin (Case No.
24CV087642), the City Council readopts and ratifies the statements of overriding considerations
for the previously identified unavoidable impacts that apply to the Dublin Fallon 580 Project.2
The City Council believes that many of the unavoidable environmental effects identified in the
Eastern Dublin EIR and two Supplemental EIRs will be substantially lessened by mitigation
measures adopted with the previous approvals and by the environmental protection measures
included in the Project design or adopted through the Project approvals, to be implemented with
the development of the Project. Even with mitigation required by the EDSP EIR, the City Council
recognizes that the implementation of the Project in a manner consistent with the EDSP carries
with it unavoidable adverse environmental effects as identified in the Eastern Dublin EIR and the
Supplemental EIRs. The City Council specifically finds that to the extent the Addendum
summarized the identified adverse or potentially adverse impacts for the Project that were
previously identified in the prior Eastern Dublin EIR and two Supplemental EIRs and have not
been mitigated to acceptable levels, there are specific economic, social, environmental, land use,
or other considerations that support approval of the Project.
4. Unavoidable Significant Adverse Impacts from the Eastern Dublin EIR
The following unavoidable significant environmental impacts identified in the Eastern Dublin EIR
for future development of Eastern Dublin apply to the Project as stated in the Project’s Addendum
(see pages 1 through 4) and evaluated in the Dublin Fallon 580 Environmental Checklist/Initial
2 “[P]ublic officials must still go on the record and explain specifically why they are approving the later project despite
its significant unavoidable impacts.” Communities for a Better Environment v. California Resources Agency (2002) 103
Cal.App.4th 98, 102.

Study dated April 8, 2024 (PLPA-2023-00000). The City Council adopted Resolution No. 53-93
adopting a statement of overriding considerations for the following significant and unavoidable
impacts as summarized on pages 3 and 4 of the Initial Study:
Cumulative loss of agriculture and open space land
Cumulative traffic
Extension of certain community facilities (natural gas, electric and telephone service)
Consumption of non-renewable natural resources
Increases in energy uses through increased water treatment and disposal and through
operation of the water distribution system
Inducement of substantial growth and concentration of population
Earthquake ground shaking
Loss or degradation of botanically sensitive habitat
Regional air quality
Noise
Alteration of visual character
The Initial Study and Addendum evaluated the Project’s effects with respect to each of the
significant impacts and significant unavoidable impacts identified in the Eastern Dublin EIR.
The Addendum, however, concluded that the Project impacts were determin ed to be less
than significant with implementation of mitigation measures identified in the Eastern Dublin
EIR as summarized in the Addendum and evaluated in the Initial Study.
With respect to the Project impacts due to the cumulative loss of agricultural and open space
lands and the alteration of rural/open space visual character , the Addendum found that
although the FAR limit has been increased, the Project applicant has proposed a mix of
limited light manufacturing, hotel, retail, and office uses for the GC/CO parcels that is
compatible with the surrounding area and falls within the anticipated development intensity
(e.g., traffic, air emissions) anticipated in the EDSP EIRs.” (Initial Study, page 9.) The Initial
Study and Addendum also analyzed the proposed Project grading (Initial Study, page 9) and
the associated alteration of the site’s visual character . (Initial Study pages 18 through 23.)
Comparing the proposed Project uses to the development analyzed in th e EDSP EIR, the
Initial Study concludes: As described in the Initial Study, the Eastern Dublin EIR determined
that development associated with implementation of the EDSP would alter the character of
existing scenic vistas and obscure important sightlines which the EDSP EIR identified as a
significant unavoidable impact. The Addendum, however, concluded that the Project impacts
were determined to be less than significant with implementation of mitigation measures
identified in the Eastern Dublin EIR as summarized in the Addendum and evaluated in the
Initial Study pages 18 through 23.
5. Unavoidable Significant Adverse Impacts from the EDPO Supplemental EIR
The Addendum (page 3) stated that in certifying the 2002 Supplemental EIR, the City adopted a
Mitigation Measures and Monitoring Program and a Statement of Overriding Considerations
(Resolution No. 40-02) for the following impacts. These impacts continue to apply to development
in Eastern Dublin, including the project site as summarized in the Project’s Addendum (see pages
1 through 4) and evaluated in the Dublin Fallon 580 Environmental Checklist/Initial Study dated
215
4
April 8, 2024 (PLPA-2023-00000). The City adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations for
the following significant and unavoidable impacts that apply to the Project:
Exceedance of Bay Area Air Quality Management District air quality standards
Cumulative loss/degradation of sensitive habitats
Cumulative traffic operations at several intersections, including Dougherty Road/Dublin
Boulevard, Hacienda Drive/Dublin Boulevard, and Fallon Road/Dublin Boulevard
Freeway operations on Interstate 580 (I-580) and I-680. In the year 2025 cumulative buildout
with project scenario, freeway segments on 1-580 and 1-680 in the project area would
operate at unacceptable levels of service during the AM and PM peak hours. (EDPO DSEIR,
p. ST-26.)
The Initial Study and Addendum evaluated the Project’s effects with r espect to each of the
significant impacts and significant unavoidable impacts identified in the EDPO Supplemental
EIR. The Addendum, however, concluded that the Project impacts were determined to be
less than significant with implementation of mitigation measures identified in the EDPO
Supplemental EIR as summarized in the Addendum and evaluated in the Initial Study.
6. Unavoidable Significant Adverse Impacts from the Fallon Village Supplemental EIR
The Addendum stated that in 2005, the City of Dublin considered additional approvals for the
1,132-acre Fallon Village area. These requested approvals included: 1. Amendments to the
General Plan and EDSP to include the entire 1,132-acre Fallon Village area and to reflect changes
to the land use designations on the site; 2. Revisions to the 2002 approval of the Planned
Development Rezone with a Stage I Development Plan to increase the number of dwellings units
by 582 to a total of 3,108 units and increase non -residential uses from 1,081,725 square feet to
2,503,175 square feet of commercial and office uses; and 3. A Stage 2 Development Plan, Vesting
Tentative Map, Development Agreement, and Lot Line Adjustment for the development of the
northerly 488 acres of the Fallon Village area t o allow 1,078 dwelling units, a school, parks, and
associated use. The City approved all three components of the Fallon Village project.
On December 6, 2005, the City certified the Final Supplemental Fallon Village Project
Environmental Impact Report (2005 Supplemental EIR) that analyzed the new uses and revisions
to the previous approvals for the Fallon Village project. The 2005 Supplement al EIR identified
potentially significant environmental impacts and related mitigation measures. The City adopted a
Mitigation Measures and Monitoring Program for this approval that continues to apply to
development in the Fallon Village area, including the Project site. In addition, as part of Resolution
No. 222-05, the City adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations for the following significant
and unavoidable impacts that apply to the Project:
traffic impact to Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road intersection,
cumulative impacts to local roadways, consistent with the Alameda County Congestion
Management Plan, (Fallon Village DSEIR p. II-3.),
216
5
demolition of the Fallon Ranch House, and
an increase in regional emissions beyond Bay Area Air Quality Management District
(BAAQMD) thresholds. (Fallon Village DSEIR pp. II-31–II-32.)
The Initial Study and Addendum evaluated the Project’s effects with respect to each of the
significant impacts and significant unavoidable impacts identified in the Fallon Village SEIR.
The Addendum, however, concluded that the Project impacts were determined to be less
than significant with implementation of mitigation measures identified in the EDPO
Supplemental EIR as summarized in the Addendum and evaluated in the Initial Stud y.
With respect to impacts to visual resources, the Addendum, as supported by the analysis in
the Initial Study, determined that consistent with the findings in the Fallon Village SEIR, due
to the elevation and existing topography of the project site, proposed development would
continue to limit views of the primary ridgeline and affect scenic vistas from I -580 and other
public vantage points. (Initial Study at pages 18-23.) The Addendum also found that
although the density of the proposed general commercial/campus office uses would be
greater than previously analyzed in the EDSP EIRs, the general type and massing o f
buildings would not be significantly different than analyzed in the EDSP EIRs. However,
consistent with the findings of the Fallon Village SEIR, proposed development would
continue to limit views of the primary ridgeline, designated as scenic resource in the Eastern
Dublin EIR (Initial Study at page 22).
Based on the information in the EDSP EIRs and the Initial Study analysis, the Initial Study
concluded that the Project would not substantially increase the severity of the previously
identified aesthetic/visual impacts, nor result in new significant impacts. The Initial Study
stated that because the Project would be required to adhere to applicable regulatory
requirements and EDSP EIR mitigation measures, there would be no new or substantially
more severe significant impacts to aesthetic resources beyond what those which were
analyzed in the prior EIRs, and no further environmenta l review was required (Initial Study
at pages 22 through 24.)
7. Overriding Considerations
The City Council previously balanced the benefits of the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan project
approvals against the significant and potentially significant adverse impacts identified in the
Eastern Dublin EIR and the Supplemental EIRs. As evaluated in the Project Addendum and
the Initial Study, the City did not identify any new or substantially more severe environmental
impacts from the Project than were previously disclosed, mitigated, and for which the City
previously prepared and adopted a Statement of O verriding Considerations. Consequently,
the City Council ratifies and reaffirms and readopts the Council’s prior statements of overriding
considerations for the EDSP as applied specifically to the specific Dublin Fallon 580 Project.
The City Council balances those unavoidable impacts that still apply to future development
on the Project site against its benefits, and hereby determines th at such unavoidable impacts
217
6
are outweighed by the benefits of the Project as further set forth below. The City declares that
each one of the benefits included below, independent of any other benefits, would be sufficient
to justify approval of the Project and override the Project’s significant and unavoidable impacts.
The substantial evidence demonstrating the benefits of the Project are found in these findings,
and in the documents found in the administrative record for the Project , including the City’s
prior statements of overriding considerations for the EDSP and related project approvals, and
the specific Project approvals including the Project Development Agreement.
The Project will further the urbanization of Eastern Dublin as planned through the
comprehensive framework established in the original Eastern Dublin approvals and
implemented through the City’s approval of the Project approvals and Developer’s obligations
specified in the Dublin Fallon 580 Project Development Agreement. The Project’s 238 medium
high density residential units on “Parcel 7” and “Parcel 8” will establish residential development
that is compatible with the residential development in the vicinity of the Project. The Project will
help the City toward its RHNA goal for new housing units and will help implement policies
contained in the Housing Element of the General Plan. The development of up to 3,299,670
square feet of commercial/office uses on approximately 126.3 -acres will complete the
development of the GC/CO uses in one of the last remaining undeveloped portions of the
EDSP area along I-580. The Project includes conversion of approximately 42 acres from Open
Space zoning to Parks/Public Recreation zoning and will provide extensive parks and open
space including 7.2-acres for a Community Park, 2.3-acres of Open Space, and 42.6-acres for
a Natural Community Park, as well as wetlands mitigation on the project site.
The Project will provide local roadway improvements contributing to an efficient public roadway
system, including the dedication of land for the City’s construction of the Dublin Boulevard
Extension through the Project site. The Project will provide streetscape improvements such
as curb, gutter, sidewalk, and landscaping that will be an amenity to the larger community and
provide safer pedestrian and bicycle access between existing neighborh oods. The Project will
generate new revenue for the City, County, and State through the transfer and reassessment
of property due to the improvement of the property and the corresponding increase in value.
The Project will contribute funds to construct schools, parks, and other community facilities
that are a benefit to the surrounding community and City-wide. Development of the project
site will provide construction employment opportunities for Dublin residents.

DESCRIPTION:
During Item 9 of the June 17, 2025 meeting, the City Council requested an informational report
on the City’s Safe and Sane Fireworks program, including the financial impact to the City on
the sale of fireworks. As part of this request, Staff researched past reports, current practices,
other factors such as fire safety and environmental and community impacts, and practices of
other neighboring cities.
Background
Since Dublin’s incorporation in 1982, the regulation of fireworks has been a recurring policy
issue shaped by public safety concerns, voter input, and evolving community expectations.
The sale and use of fireworks has been addressed through ordinances adopted by the City
Council, voter approved ballot measures, and operational policies intended to balance
community celebration with safety and regulatory compliance.
At the City Council Meeting on February 1, 1982, former Alameda County Fire Chief Philip
Phillips provided written recommendations regarding the regulation of fireworks within the
newly incorporated City of Dublin. Chief Phillips advised that fireworks be controlled locally to
reduce fire risk and ensure public safety. These recommendations laid the foundation for
subsequent City Council actions related to fireworks regulation, the most notable documented
in Table 2.
Table 2. Historical Timeline of Notable Actions
Date Action
February 1, 1982 The City Council received a report from Alameda County Fire Chief
Philip Phillips recommending that fireworks be controlled in Dublin.
April 5, 1982 The City Council unanimously adopted an Ordinance Regulating the
Sale and Use of Fireworks. (Ord. No. 10-82)
April 26, 1982 The ordinance was amended to prohibit the sale of fireworks to people
under the age of 18. (Ord. No. 12-82)
220
Page 3 of 8
July 29, 1982 The City Council approved a special election (Measure X) to consider
prohibiting the sale of Safe and Sane fireworks within the City Limits.
Note: Safe and Sane fireworks are fireworks approved by the Office of
the State Fire Marshal for sales and use within the State of California,
and as legally authorized by municipalities. (Reso. No. 33-82)
November 2, 1982 Voters defeated Measure X (56% opposed), allowing the continued
sale of Safe and Sane fireworks in Dublin.
1987 Dublin Municipal Code Chapter 5.24 was published, incorporating
various amendments to ordinances regulating the sale of Safe and
Sane fireworks.
July 21, 1987 The City Council directed Staff to prepare a special advisory election
on prohibiting the manufacture, sale and use of Safe and Sane
fireworks. (Reso. No. 14-88)
June 7, 1988 The advisory ballot measure to ban the sale of Safe and Sane
fireworks was narrowly defeated by 114 votes (3% margin).
September 18,
2001
The City Council received a report on firework activity and established
a committee to develop a plan to address fireworks-related issues the
following year. The committee comprised City staff and representatives
from non-profit organizations and fireworks manufacturers.
April 16, 2002 Upon recommendation by the Fireworks Committee, the City Council
approved the designation of four parks (Shannon Park, Dublin Sports
Grounds, Alamo Creek Park and Emerald Glen Park) for Safe and
Sane fireworks use from 10 AM to 10 PM on July 4 only.
Collectively, these actions established the framework for Dublin’s current Safe and Sane
fireworks program, which permits the sale of State-approved Safe and Sane fireworks while
restricting their use to specific locations, dates, and times. The policies adopted over time
reflect the City’s ongoing effort to manage fire risk, ensure public safety, and respond to
community input regarding fireworks use. The Dublin Municipal Code (DMC) Section 5.24
provides regulations for the sale of fireworks (Attachment 1).
Illegal fireworks are fireworks not classified as Safe and Sane and are banned by State law.
Typically, these fireworks are explosive and/or aerial in nature. It is a misdemeanor or felony to
possess or discharge these fireworks anywhere in the State of California unless permitted and
discharged by a State Licensed Pyrotechnician.
Program Overview
Current Policies and Practices
The sale of Safe and Sane fireworks is allowed with a permit in commercial areas of the City.
The total number of available permits is regulated by the DMC which allows one permit per
3,000 residents (less group quarters population). Up to 23 booths would be permitted based on
the current population. The DMC allows the use of a lottery system when the number of
applications exceeds the allowed number of permits. Fireworks sales are allowed with an
approved permit between the hours of 8 AM and 10 PM from noon on June 28 through noon
on July 5 annually.
221
Page 4 of 8
An organization can apply for a permit to operate a fireworks booth provided it meets the
following criteria:
Is a nonprofit with an active 501(c)(3) status or have a tax-exempt status;
Is based in Dublin continually for at least one year and has at least 20 Dublin resident
members;
Serves, in whole or in part, the Dublin community and its residents and pledges to
reinvest a portion of the proceeds from its sale of fireworks for the benefit of the Dublin
community and its residents; and
Has an active business license with the City at the time of application.
The Safe and Sane Fireworks Booth Permit application procedure is further described in
Dublin Municipal Code (DMC) Chapter 5.24 (Attachment 1).
The use of Safe and Sane fireworks is permitted at four parks within the City including Alamo
Creek Park, Dublin Sports Grounds, Emerald Glen Park, and Shannon Park from 10:00 AM to
10:00 PM on July 4 only. In addition to the designated areas, the City’s practice has been to
allow Safe and Sane Fireworks in residential neighborhoods with single family homes, as well
as commercial areas, with consent of the property owner, during the sales period only.
Dublin Police Services (DPS) Fireworks Activity
To provide for fireworks response and suppression police activity, DPS maintains a long-
standing fireworks suppression detail to augment regular patrol operations, which alone cannot
manage the volume of fireworks-related activity on the holiday.
The fireworks suppression detail is primarily staffed on overtime and supported by personnel
from the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office. Assigned staff respond to fireworks complaints,
provide security at the four designated Dublin parks where Safe and Sane fireworks are
permitted, and proactively seek to identify individuals involved in illegal fireworks activity. In
2025, the suppression detail was staffed with 21 sworn personnel , in addition to standard
patrol staffing. Each year, DPS receives approximately 55 calls for service relating to fireworks
on July 4. These calls for service are related to illegal fireworks, public safety, noise issues,
and improper use of Safe and Sane fireworks.
In addition, since 2020, these suppression details have confiscated more than 1,600 pounds of
illegal fireworks. In 2020 alone, approximately 1,000 pounds of illegal fireworks were
confiscated, and most recently in 2025, 100 pounds were confiscated. Individuals selling illegal
fireworks are arrested, and individuals utilizing illegal fireworks can be issued citations. DPS
also responds to incidents and calls regarding fireworks.
222

Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD) Fireworks Activity
ACFD’s role in managing fireworks activity in Dublin includes inspection and regulation of the
fireworks sales booths, monitoring activity on July 4, and providing emergency response
services. The primary challenges ACFD experience s each year relate to code administration
and staffing, as the holiday takes place during fire season and coincides with the Alameda
County Fair. Additionally, two other cities in the County sell Safe and Sane fireworks and thus
require code administration services.
To address this, ACFD calls in additional resources on overtime to the extent possible. This
becomes more challenging when there are multiple, large, mutual-aid fires in the State. There
are also new enforcement challenges affecting fire code administration staff. This is the result
of groups not disclosing in advance other nonprofit groups they are partnering with, allowing
minors to work at or near the booths, unknown persons approaching booths offering to work,
and the need for referrals to code enforcement related to illegal signs.
Since 2020, there have been four fire incidents on July 4 in non-designated areas that required
ACFD intervention. In 2020, there were two vegetation fires, and one trash can fire as the
result of illegal or improper use and/or disposal of fireworks. In 2023, there was one tree fire
that was the result of illegal fireworks usage. There was no structural damage and no injuries
reported from these fires. In addition to these four fires in non-designated areas, there are
fireworks-related dumpster fires each year that ACFD extinguishes in the designated park
areas.
Nonprofit Organizations
The City does not collect information on how much each non-profit receives from the sale of
fireworks, nor is that information readily accessible. However, some of the organizations
shared with Staff that their net revenue has been declining in recent years. This is due in part
to higher costs to operate the booths, including rental space, generators, equipment, and
firework products. The revenue generated by the sale of fireworks appears to vary by location.
Anecdotal information from the nonprofits indicates that booths operating in high traffic areas
earn higher profits.
Some of the nonprofit organizations have reported difficulty finding enough volunteers to run
their booths. As a result, these organizations have partnered together on a booth to ensure
adequate volunteer support to run the booth. The City has not had to utilize the lottery system
to award booth permits in the last 10 years because the number of applications has not
exceeded the allowed number of permits. Fo r example, over the past six years, the City has
approved an average of 15 applications.
Some nonprofits also are finding it more difficult to find locations for fireworks booths. This is
likely due to several reasons including the development of previously vacant sites and
increased rent prices. Moreover, some property owners that currently allow booths have
shared with Staff that they are considering removing access in the coming years, further
reducing the number of locations available in the City.
223

Fire Safety Environmental and Community Impacts
Fire risks remain the most significant concern on and around the July 4 holiday, particularly
due to Dublin’s geographic proximity to wildland areas and summer weather conditions such
as heat, low relative humidity, and wind, which heightens the risk of fast -moving vegetation or
structure fires in the city. Fireworks also create secondary impacts that affect community well -
being and the environment, including noise-related disruptions for veterans and other sensitive
populations, stress and harm to pets and wildlife, and light pollution. Attachment 2 summarizes
the primary fire safety, environmental, and impacts on our community associated with
fireworks in Dublin.
Comparative Cities Analysis
There are 10 cities in the Bay Area that allow for the sale of Safe and Sane Fireworks as
displayed in Table 3.

In Alameda County, Newark and Union City also allow the sale of Safe and Sane fireworks at
booths throughout their communities and have special fireworks suppression details through
their respective police departments to supplement patrol. The suppression details are
responsible for responding to fireworks related calls and to police illegal fireworks. Additionally,
both Newark and Union City contract with ACFD for additional fire suppression support during
the July 4 holiday. A comparative analysis between Dublin, Newark, and Union City can be
found in Table 4.

While Dublin’s fireworks management practices are similar to those of Newark and Union City,
there are several notable differences. In Newark, the City Council established a process where
the total number of firework booth permits would decrease through at trition, specifically when
an organization chooses not to renew their permit or no longer meets the city’s requirements.
Newark also includes illegal fireworks in its social host ordinance, essentially allowing for
police to cite the owner of the property where illegal fireworks are used. By contrast, Dublin’s
social host ordinance addresses only underage drinking.
In Union City, organizations selling fireworks are charged a permit fee based on a percentage
of the permittee’s (or its predecessor’s) gross revenues from the sale of fireworks. The
percentage is calculated using the City’s estimated reasonable cost of public services for
administering the permits (including staff time administering permits and related material, staff
time related to the regulation of the sales, use, and cleanup of fireworks in the City, etc.)
divided by the gross revenues derived from sale of fireworks in that year. Union City provides
this example: “The City’s costs for staff time related to the permits is $51,500. Gross revenues
derived from fireworks sales in the City is calculated at $1,000,000. The permit fee would be
5.15% of each permittee’s gross revenues.” In contrast, Dublin’s total fees are $335 per booth
(application fee and inspection fee together).
Potential Future Considerations
While this report is informational only, intended to keep the City Council apprised of current
practices, costs, and safety considerations that accompany Dublin’s continued allowance of
Safe and Sane fireworks, it raises some potential areas that the City might consider in the
future that will enhance safety and help recover the City’s expenses related to fireworks
management. These include:
Implement a new fee structure – a fee for fireworks booths could be structured to align
with the City’s costs, similar to what Union City has done.
Expand the City’s social host ordinance – Dublin’s current social host ordinance could
be expanded to be able to assign responsibility to property owners and assess fines
accordingly.
Cap the number of booths available – this would allow for current nonprofits to maintain
their sales booths while controlling the expansion of fireworks use in the community.

Agenda Item 8.2
DATE: January 13, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Colleen Tribby, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Dublin Library/Civic Center Public Art Mural Project Artwork Selection
Prepared by: Shaun Chilkotowsky, Parks & Community Services Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will consider approving the conceptual design of a public art proposal as part
of the Outdoor Murals Project, CIP No. PA0125, included in the 2024-2029 Capital
Improvement Program. The proposed artwork by Rough Edge Collective is a permanent
outdoor mural that will be located on a utility enclosure adjacent to the Dublin Library.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the conceptual design of the artwork proposal by Rough Edge Collective for the
Outdoor Murals Project.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The Outdoor Murals Project has a budget of $200,000 funded by the Public Art Fund. This will
cover the $40,000 artist commission for the mural at the Dublin Library, leaving a balance of
$160,000 for additional murals at other City facilities.
DESCRIPTION:
Background
The 2024-2029 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes the Outdoor Murals Project (CIP
No. PA0125) to provide painted murals on certain structures, such as backup generators and
other utility enclosures, at various City facilities. The project allocates $200,000 from the Public
Art Fund for this purpose.
The first of such artwork will be a permanent, outdoor mural on the generator
enclosure located adjacent to the Dublin Library in the parking lot between the Dublin Library
and the Civic Center. Once complete, this mural will be added to the City’s permanent Public
Art Collection and will be preserved and maintained by the City.

Artist & Artwork Selection Process
Artist Pool
On February 12, 2025, Staff issued a Request for Qu alifications (RFQ) seeking qualified
muralists (Attachment 1). Respondents submitted a portfolio and resume to be considered for
an invitation to develop site-specific design proposals for future projects. The City received 31
responses from qualified muralists by the deadline of March 26, 2025.
Development of Project Goals
On May 8, 2025, the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission reviewed the mural project
planned for the generator enclosure adjacent to the Dublin Library. The purpose of this review
was to identify criteria and goals specific to this mural project, as the initial RFQ was broad in
scope. The Commission provided feedback on objectives, themes, and other relevant
information related to the mural project. The theme developed for this project was “Our Story
Begins with Imagination”. Proposal instructions were developed using feedback from the
Commission (Attachment 2).
Ad Hoc Selection Committee
An Ad Hoc Selection Committee, consisting of nine community members with varying levels of
artistic background and the Committee Vice Chair, was formed to review the artists’ proposals.
On June 18, 2025, the Selection Committee reviewed portfolios from the initial RFQ. Based on
project goals developed for the project and other factors, including artists’ past projects, the
Selection Committee identified five artists that were asked to develop site-specific design
proposals using the proposal instructions. The Selection Committee reconvened on August 20,
2025 to review the site-specific design proposals, and after deliberations, selected three
proposals for consideration.
Community Outreach
To enhance the artwork selection process, a public survey was conducted to increase
community engagement and to gather community feedback on the three finalist proposals. The
survey was available from September 3, 2025 through September 14, 2025. The survey was
shared via traditional communication channels, including the City’s website, news flash, and
posting at City facilities and at the Dublin Library. Over 700 responses were received, and the
feedback was shared with the artists.
Heritage & Cultural Arts Commission Review
On November 13, 2025, the Commission reviewed the three proposals from the finalists
chosen by the Selection Committee. Following artist presentations, review of community
feedback, and deliberations, the Commission selected the proposal by Rough Edge Collective
by a 4-2 vote for recommendation to the City Council. The two Commissioners that voted no
were primarily in favor of the proposals that had more of a nature and/or landscape focus . The
majority of the Commission was in favor of the proposal by Rough Edge Collective as they felt
it best achieved project goals and was different than any of the artworks in the City’s Public Art
Collection.
247
Page 3 of 3
Rough Edge Collective Design Proposal
The proposed “Of Stories Told” mural would be painted on all four sides of the utility enclosure,
totaling about 950 square feet once complete.
The mural centers on four figures, each existing in a different world yet connected through the
timeless power of storytelling and in the shared language of humanity. The design begins with
a child immersed in a book, followed by three figures from diverse backgrounds that
organically transition around the utility enclosure. The mural is intended to celebrate not only
what unites a community, but also the vibrant spectrum of what sets individuals apart. The full
proposal is included as Attachment 3.
Feedback received during the community outreach period was overwhelmingly positive.
Respondents praised its vibrant, bold colors and modern style, as well as its inclusive
representation of Dublin’s diverse community. The child reading was highlight ed as a perfect
tie to the library’s purpose. Suggested refinements included ensuring an accurate reflection of
Dublin’s growing cultural and geographic diversity, in addition to its history.
Proposal Refinement
Based on feedback received during the community outreach period as well as feedback from
the Commission, adjustments were made to the proposal including the addition of a fourth
figure and the incorporation of native finches which add a sense of movement throughout the
piece. Additionally, a red ribbon weaves throughout the design, subtly and symbolically
connecting the figures across the story. If selected, Rough Edge Collective will be asked to
further refine the conceptual proposal to ensure accurate historical and cultural representation
of the figures depicted on the mural.
Next Steps
If the City Council approves the conceptual design, Staff will work with Rough Edge to refine
the proposal to ensure accurate historical and cultural representation. Staff will then return to
the City Council at a future meeting for approval of a Public Art Agreement, which will include a
final design, detailed scope of work, and schedule for completion.
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
None.
NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH:
The City Council Agenda was posted, and a copy of the Staff Report was provided to the artist.

Public Art – Murals
Pre-Qualified List of Muralists for Future Projects
RFQ ISSUE DATE: February 12, 2025
RFQ DEADLINE: March 26, 2025, 4:00 p.m. PST
The City of Dublin invites artists with experience creating murals to submit
qualifications to become pre-qualified for upcoming public art projects to be installed
on City property during the next three years. From this list of pre-qualified artists, the
City will invite artists to submit proposals for specific projects.
BACKGROUND
The City of Dublin, incorporated in 1982, is one of the fastest growing communities in
California. Dublin is located in the Tri-Valley region, about 30 miles east of San
Francisco, bordered by the cities of Pleasanton, Livermore, and San Ramon. Dublin
has a robust public art program, with a municipal collection of more than 35 works,
primarily outdoor sculptures, murals, and tile works acquired or commissioned in the
last 20 years.
In 2020, the City updated its Public Art Master Plan. The Public Art Master Plan
emphasizes highly visible artwork along major thoroughfares and prioritizes artworks
within Downtown Dublin. All expected mural projects are anticipated to be in highly
visible areas and experience high volumes of vehicle and/or pedestrian traffic.
MURAL OPPORTUNITIES
Anticipated Mural Opportunities
The City of Dublin anticipates the completion of mural(s) throughout the City of Dublin
in the next three years. Exact locations are yet to be confirmed, but may include above
ground utility enclosures, building facades, and other locations in the public right-of-
way or on City owned property.
Budgets will vary by specific project but are anticipated to range from $15,000 to $50,000
and are intended to include all costs, including site and surface preparation, materials,
painting, and finish coats. Detailed specifications and project scope will be shared with
artists selected to develop site specific proposals.
Artwork selection timelines will vary depending on the specific project scope. It is
anticipated that the City will begin its first mural project in Summer 2025 on a backup
generator enclosure at the Dublin Public Library (200 Civic Plaza. Dublin, CA 94568).

Public Art – Proposal Instructions
Dublin Library/Civic Center - Mural Project
You have been selected as one of five finalists invited to submit a site-specific design proposal
for a Permanent Public Art Mural to be commissioned in Dublin, California.
The City anticipates commissioning a permanent mural on a generator enclosure adjacent to the
Dublin Public Library at Dublin Civic Center (200 Civic Plaza, Dublin, CA 94568). Alameda County
operates the Dublin Public Library, which is consistently one of the busiest libraries in its network.
Additionally, the location is situated in a shared parking lot adjacent to Dublin City Hall and
provides overflow parking for the Dublin Sports Grounds. It is located adjacent to a regional trail
access point, and a number of City events take place at the site.
Following a project review with City Staff, Library Staff, Artwork Selection Committee, and the
City’s Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission, the following project information was developed.
This is not intended to be prescriptive, but rather as a broad outline of project goals and
considerations. It is recommended that artists carefully consider the site and surroundings,
Dublin’s existing public art collection, and Dublin’s highly diverse demographics. Additionally,
the design theme “Our Story Begins with Imagination” was developed for this project.
Community Representation:
Emphasize the intersection of growth and community while ensuring representation of
cultural diversity and generational change as well as the community’s unique character.
Design elements that convey the idea of growth, imagination, and a collective journey
honoring past and future generations.
A welcoming, family-friendly space for diverse groups, particularly teens and young
adults that encourages learning, reflection, and inclusiveness.
Recognize and honor Dublin’s historic, cultural, and natural resources, including trails
and wildlife, making connections to the community’s identity.
Visual Style, Symbolism, Iconography:
Aesthetic Balance. Utilize colorful elements but with a controlled vibrancy to create a
balanced, dynamic visual effect.
Avoid reliance on literal imagery of bookshelves and traffic control symbols.
Be cautious with symbols, using them sparingly and meaningfully to avoid confusion or
unintended associations.
Include elements that engage viewers in multiple ways, encouraging them to interpret
the artwork from different perspectives.
Inspire imagination, wisdom, and knowledge through a design that connects with the
local library and government offices.
Use visual elements that provoke thought and stimulate conversation about community
identity and history.
Utilize a thematic approach that is both bold and refined.

“Of Stories Told”A Rough Edge Collective proposalby Joshua Lawyer and MJ Lindo-Lawyer
Attachment 3
258
INTRODUCTIONRough Edge Collective
We are Rough Edge Collective, Maria-Jose (MJ)
Lindo-Lawyer and Joshua Lawyer.
As children of immigrant families, we each became obsessed
with creating the world we wanted to see. We were inspired
to study and learn everything we could about art from a
young age.
This passion has given us opportunities beyond our wildest
dreams, allowing us the fortune to pursue our passion and
become full-time muralists since 2019. We have had the
honor to create for our own communities and the privilege to
travel the world, installing murals in countries across the
globe.
259
Rough Edge Collective Design titled
‘Of Stories Told’
260
Our story begins with a child, completely immersed in a book—transported beyond the page into
new worlds, new ideas, and the lives of people from different cultures, beliefs, and experiences.
This design seeks to honor the quiet, extraordinary power of stories—the way they reach across
borders and differences to touch something deeply human in all of us. Books become more than
pages; they become portals, weaving connection through curiosity, empathy, and wonder. Here,
we celebrate not only what unites us, but also the vibrant spectrum of what sets us apart. In our
shared stories and our singular voices, we find the true beauty of being human.
261
The second figure, ‘The
Oracle’, is submitted
for approval.
The design has been
revised in response to
feedback from the Arts
Council to more
accurately represent
the diversity of Dublin’s
population and the
city’s historical and
cultural heritage.
We anticipate potential
changing of some of
the figures as well as
further developing
some visuals such as
the birds.
262
The third figure comes
from a distant place,
wrapped in the stories of
her ancestors—myths
and legends passed
down through
generations, blending
memory with magic,
history with imagination.
Her stories immortalized
through poems, through
traditions, through
songs, epic tales, and
short stories. She is the
mystery that is honest
and true.
263
The fourth figure is a woman
defined by strength and
unwavering purpose. She
moves through the world like
a force of nature—part
superhero, part visionary—
unafraid to stand for what’s
right and shape what’s
possible. She’s the one you
root for in every story, the kind
of cool that doesn’t chase
attention but commands it.
Her confidence lingers, like a
spark you hope might catch,
so you too can step forward
with a strength you never
knew was yours.
264
Each of these figures lives in a different world, yet through the timeless power of storytelling, they are
connected—finding common ground in the shared language of humanity. Our goal was to depict figures
that felt historic and magical. Stories that captured myths that felt familiar, as if someone we grew up
with. But most importantly, to highlight the importance of storytelling, and how this human trait allows us
to truly find freedom, adventure, and understanding.
265
We introduced local birds to add a sense of movement throughout the piece, while a red ribbon weaves
through the narrative, subtly and symbolically connecting the figures across our story.266
The following slides
are the super
imposed images
around the
structure. This is
meant to show
how the design will
turn the corners
and transition from
one part of the
narrative to the
next.

268
We wanted it to
feel organic and
transition from a
cool tone to a
warm tone. We
also wanted the
door to be easily
visible based on
the chemical
placard and the
understanding that
if any issues were
to happen, that the
fire department or
any emergency
agencies could
easily identify the
doors.
269
LET'S WORKTogether
We thank you so much for this special opportunity and happily welcome any
questions or comments about our proposal. We look forward to continuing to
collaborate on this project and hope to hear from you soon.

Page 1 of 8
Agenda Item 8.3
DATE: January 13, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Colleen Tribby, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Presentation on Police Activity and Ongoing Public Safety Efforts
Prepared by: Miguel Campos, Captain
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will receive a presentation on police activity in the City of Dublin over the last
three years and certain efforts by Dublin Police Services to proactively address crime, enhance
public safety, and maintain community trust on an ongoing basis.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Receive the presentation.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None.
DESCRIPTION:
Background
Dublin Police Services (DPS) regularly tracks and analyzes operational crime data to evaluate
service demands, allocate resources, and inform strategic planning. This information is shared
with the City Council to provide transparency, highlight trends, and demonstrate how DPS is
responding to community safety needs.
This Staff Report presents crime statistics over the last three calendar years broken down in
various ways and discusses DPS’ proactive strategies in reducing crime and building trust in
the community. DPS is also in the process of collecting data from neighboring cities f or
comparison purposes. This information will be discussed during the City Council presentation.

Crime Statistics
Total Police Activities
Police activity is defined as any operation to enforce laws, maintain order, and protect the
community. It includes emergency response, investigations, enforcing laws, and community
policing. The total number of police activities the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office (ACSO)
dispatch entered into the Computer Aided Dispatch system related to DPS is shown in Table 1
below. “Community-Initiated” activities are calls for service the ACSO dispatch received from
individuals reporting an incident in the City of Dublin. “Officer-Initiated” activities are activities
a DPS Officer initiated on their own.
Table 1: Police Activities
Type of Activity 2023 2024 Change 2025 Change
Community-Initiated 16,202 16,257 0.34% 15,268 -6.08%
Officer-Initiated 21,419 15,138 -29.32% 12,766 -15.67%
TOTAL 37,621 31,395 -16.55% 28,034 -10.71%
Police Activities – By Priority Level
All Police Activities are automatically assigned a Priority level by the dispatch program, ranging
from zero (0) to nine (9). Almost all activities are prioritized as one (1) through five (5). Table 2
breaks down all DPS activities by priority level, followed by a description and example of each
priority level. For simplicity, all activities prioritized as 3 and above were combined.
Table 2: Call Priority Level
Priority Level 2023 2024 Change 2025 Change
1 2,808 2,510 -10.61% 2,499 -0.44%
2 15,542 15,089 -2.91% 13,523 -10.38%
3+ 19,239 13,796 -28.29% 12,012 -12.93%
• Priority 0 activities are used for unit emergencies, which are self-reported emergencies
by an ACSO staff member and do not come from the community. In 2025, there were
seven Priority 0 activities, all which were either accidental activations of the staff
member’s emergency button on their radio or misassigned detail types by the dispatch
program.
• Priority 1 activities are used for calls that are in progress, require immediate response
due to imminent public or officer safety, and/or involve injury. Examples of Priority 1
activities include, but are not limited to: robbery, assault with a deadly weapon,
domestic violence, 911 calls, silent commercial alarms (such as those originating from a
bank), and medical emergencies.
• Priority 2 activities are activities that are in progress, or just occurred, but do not pose
an imminent threat. Examples of Priority 2 activities include, but are not limited to: petty
thefts, disturbances, suspicious persons/vehicles, audible alarms, batteries, traffic
310
Page 3 of 8
collisions with no reported injuries, and traffic stops.
• Priority 3 through 5 activities are used for reports. These are incidents that have
already occurred and there is no threat to the public and no reported evidence of a
suspect being present. The time frame between the incident and report is such that the
likelihood of continued threat, harm, or immediate apprehension is zero. Examples
include cold crime reports (auto burglary, vehicle theft, battery, etc.), patrol checks,
illegally parked vehicles, etc.
• Priorities 6 through 8 are discretionary and used only when no other activity code
exists for the incident being reported. In 2025, there were no details with Priorities 6
through 8.
• Priority 9 is used as a “Test” code.
Police Activities – Response Times
The “Dispatched – Arrival” response times for all Priority 1 and Priority 2 calls for service are
summarized in Table 3. The response time is defined as the length of time from when the
DPS Officer was dispatched to the call, to the time they arrived at the location of the call. For
these response times, Officer-Initiated activities were not included as their response times are
always zero.

Reports Taken – CIBRS/NIBRS
The California Incident-Based Reporting System (CIBRS) is the California Department of
Justice’s crime-reporting system. It is aligned with the federal equivalent, the FBI’s National
Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS). CIBRS captures detailed information about every
criminal incident, including victims, offenders, and the nature of harm. CIBRS classifies crimes
into three broad categories based on who or what is p rimarily harmed:
• Crimes Against Persons are offenses in which the victim is an individual and the crime
involves actual or threatened physical harm (e.g., homicide, robbery, assaults, etc.).
• Crimes Against Property involve the taking of, damage to, or destruction of property
rather than direct physical harm to a person (e.g., burglary, theft, vandalism, motor
vehicle theft, fraud, etc).
• Crimes Against Society primarily affect public order and community safety rather than
targeting a specific individual or property (e.g., drug-related offenses, DUI, and weapons
violations).
The reports taken by DPS are organized into the three CIBRS categories and summarized in

*Per California Penal Code 211, “Robbery is the felonious taking of personal property in the possession
of another, from [their] person or immediate presence, and against [their] will, accomplished by means
of force or fear.” An “Estes” robbery is a type of robbery recognized by California law where a simple
theft has already occurred and then escalates into a robbery when force or fear is used to retain the
stolen property or to escape. This occurs most often at retail stores when the store’s loss prevention
witnesses a theft and then confronts the suspect outside the store in an attempt to detain them.

Dublin Police Services Proactive Strategies
The following is an overview of the proactive and collaborative efforts DPS is undertaking to
address crime, enhance public safety, and maintain community trust on an ongoing basis.
Public Safety Cameras and Flock Technology
For over eight years, DPS has utilized strategically placed Automated License Plate Reader
(ALPR) and Situational Awareness Cameras (SitCams) to help DPS prevent crime, respond
faster to emergencies, and solve investigations. ALPR technology assists DPS by quickly
identifying stolen vehicles, wanted suspects, missing persons cases, and vehicles associated
with serious crimes. SitCams enhance situational awareness in real time. During critical
incidents, SitCams provide officers with immediate information about what is happening,
allowing for faster, safer, and more informed responses. This not only protects the public but
also improves officer safety and decision-making.
In 2025, DPS began replacing its camera inventory with Flock equipment, which provides,
313
Page 6 of 8
among other things, state-of-the-art technology for high-definition optics, increased accuracy of
plate reading, multi-lane surveillance with fewer cameras, and instant data access through a
cloud-based platform.
These kinds of advanced camera technologies support crime prevention by deterring criminal
activity and helping identify patterns and trends. When crimes do occur, ALPR data and
SitCam footage often provide critical evidence that leads to quicker resolutions and higher
solvability rates.
Mobile Security Trailers (MST)
DPS is also currently working on securing MSTs, which are self-contained, towable security
units that typically contain multiple high-resolution cameras powered by solar panels. These
units can be rapidly deployed to areas experiencing temporary crime trends, construction
zones, special events, parks, school areas, or locations identified through community
concerns. Their visible presence alone serves as a strong deterrent, often preventing crime
before it occurs. In addition, because they are portable and solar-powered, they can be moved
as needs shift, providing targeted coverage without the expense of permanent infrastructure.
Real Time Crime Center (RTCC)
A RTCC is a high-tech hub for law enforcement that integrates data from a variety of sources,
such as SitCam and ALPRS information, calls for service, and crime analytics, to give police
instant, actionable intelligence for faster response times, better situational awareness,
increased suspect identifications, and safer outcomes for residents, visitors, and DPS Officers.
Dublin’s RTCC also strengthens crime prevention. Analysts identify crime patterns and
emerging trends, helping the department deploy resources proactively, deter criminal activity,
and reduce repeat offenses. This data-driven approach ensures policing is focused, fair, and
effective.
Overall, a Real-Time Crime Center is a force multiplier, helping DPS do more with existing
resources, improving public safety, and delivering measurable value to t he Dublin community.
Peregrine Technologies
DPS recently implemented Peregrine Technologies, a centralized, real-time intelligence and
analytics platform that integrates data from multiple sources, such as the DPS report writing
system, dispatch, automated license plate readers, cameras, and other public safety systems,
into a single operational view. This technology has significantly enhanced DPS’ ability to
collect, analyze, and act on data in support of crime reduction, officer efficiency, and
investigations. This allows DPS staff to quickly identify crime trends, repeat offenders, and
emerging public safety concerns, enabling more proactive and intelligence -led policing. The
Peregrine system also searches other agency databases who also use Peregrine.
In addition, Peregrine reduces the time DPS staff spend manually compiling reports, allowing
more time to be dedicated to field operations and community engagement. The platform
improves situational awareness for patrol and investigative units, supports t imely decision-
making during critical incidents, and enhances accountability through consistent data tracking
314
Page 7 of 8
and reporting. The data compiled in this Staff Report was primarily compiled using Peregrine
Technologies.
Neighborhood Watch
The DPS Neighborhood Watch Program is a community-based crime prevention initiative
designed to strengthen partnerships between residents and DPS in support of public safety
and neighborhood livability. The program encourages residents to work collaboratively with
one another and with DPS to help deter crime, increase awareness, and promptly report
suspicious activity.
Through the Neighborhood Watch Program, DPS provides residents with crime prevention
education, safety resources, and guidance on recognizing and reporting suspicious behavior.
The program emphasizes observation, communication, and prevention , reinforcing that
residents serve as the eyes and ears of their neighborhoods while sworn personnel remain
responsible for investigation and enforcement.
Neighborhood Watch groups help reduce opportunities for crime by improving communication
among neighbors, increasing informal neighborhood surveillance, and fostering a strong sense
of community ownership. In addition to its crime prevention benefits, the program builds trust
between residents and DPS, enhances problem-solving partnerships, and supports DPS’
commitment to proactive, community-oriented policing.
Business Watch
The DPS Business Watch Program is a crime prevention partnership between local
businesses and DPS focused on reducing crime and enhancing safety in commercial areas.
The program encourages business owners, managers, and employees to remain alert, share
information, and promptly report suspicious activity.
DPS provides participating businesses with crime prevention education, safety guidance, and
Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles to help reduce
opportunities for crime. By promoting effective lighting, visibility, vegetation management,
access control, and natural surveillance, along with strong communication and collaboration,
the Business Watch Program helps deter criminal activity and supports proactive, community-
oriented policing.
As part of this program, Crime Prevention Unit (CPU) also encourages businesses to file
Open-Ended Complaints, which serve as trespassing orders that authorize DPS personnel to
arrest unauthorized individuals found on the business premises after business hours.
The DPS Business Watch Program also allows participating businesses to voluntarily register
their security cameras with DPS for investigative information sharing.
Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.)
The DPS D.A.R.E. Program is a school-based prevention and education initiative designed to
help youth develop the skills needed to make safe, responsible decisions. Delivered by trained
DPS D.A.R.E Officers, the program focuses on preventing substance abuse, reducing
315
Page 8 of 8
violence, and promoting positive life choices.
Through age-appropriate instruction, interactive lessons, and relationship-building, the
D.A.R.E. Program fosters trust between students and law enforcement while reinforcing
healthy behaviors, personal responsibility, and resilience. The program supports early
intervention, community engagement, and the City’s commitment to youth safety and long-term
crime prevention.
Ongoing Prevention Measures
The DPS CPU regularly conducts collaborative retail theft enforcement operations in
partnership with local businesses. These operations frequently result in the identification and
arrest of suspects. CPU also conducts tobacco retail compliance enforcement using minor
decoys and has recently received an Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) – Alcoholic Beverage
Control (ABC) grant to support initiatives focused on community health, education, and
welfare.
In addition, CPU works closely with DPS detectives on suspect apprehension and the service
of search warrants, while also supplementing patrol operations as part of their regular duties to
enhance overall operational effectiveness.

Reports
The California Incident-Based Reporting System
(CIBRS) is the California Department of Justice’s
crime-reporting system. It is aligned with the FBI’s
equivalent - National Incident-Based Reporting
System (NIBRS).
CIBRS captures detailed information about every
criminal incident, including victims, offenders, and
the nature of harm. CIBRS classifies crimes into 3
broad categories based on who or what is primarily
harmed.
– These are offenses in which the
victim is an individual and the crime involves actual or
threatened physical harm, i.e. homicide, robbery, sex
offenses, assaults, etc.
These offenses involve the
taking of, damage to, or destruction of property, rather
than direct physical harm to a person, i.e. burglary, theft,
vandalism, motor vehicle theft, fraud, etc.
– These offenses primarily affect
public order and community safety rather than targeting a
specific individual or property, such as drug-related
offenses, DUI, and weapons violations.
