PA 90-043: On July 16, 1990, the Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit to allow Scotsman Manufacturing Corporation to continue the operation of sales, leasing and storage of mobile office trailers and modular buildings. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS: Section 8-51.3(A) (10) states that other uses, such as an automobile sales and service dealership, which are found by the Planning Commission as may meet the intent of the district and the requirements of Section 8-51.8 Performance Standards, M-1 Districts, may be permitted as a conditional use only if approved by the Planning Commission. 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) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. The project consists of the operation and minor alteration to existing private structures and facility involving negligible expansion of use beyond that previously existing. NOTIFICATION: Public Notice of the October 3, 1994, hearing was published in the local newspaper, mailed to adjacent property owners, and posted in public buildings. -3- 3 PAGE OF ?� ANALYSIS: The Applicants are requesting Conditional Use Permit approval to use the vacated 2.24± acre site, previously occupied by the Scotsman Manufacturing Corporation, for an additional auto sales lot and vehicle storage facility as an expansion to the Valley Auto Center dealership, which is located directly east of this site at 6015 Scarlett Court. This project also includes the dedication of a 40- foot wide right-of-way along the western portion of the property for the future construction of the northbound lane of Scarlett Drive. Valley Auto Center will utilize the site for expanded auto sales, and display, as well as vehicle storage, servicing and employee parking. The existing 2,860± square foot office building will be for used car sales and office use and the 1,600± square foot metal maintenance building at the rear of the site will be used for servicing and washing of vehicles. With the exception of paint and signage, no exterior modifications will be made to these structures. The Applicants propose to install AC paving along the eastern portion of the site for access to the existing auto dealership, in order to better facilitate the auto sales, service and storage uses. The existing landscaped area located west of the office building and along the Scarlett Court frontage will also be graded and paved to provide additional vehicle sales and display. All proposed landscaping and lighting improvements to this site will match the existing landscaping on the current dealership facility, which is generally well-maintained. All remaining landscaping will also be enhanced and well-maintained. The large concrete paved area behind the office building and block wall will be used for vehicle parking and storage as well as additional employee parking and this area will be restriped to provide the designated parking and storage areas. Staff has observed that the existing solid block wall provides adequate screening of the storage area from Scarlett Court. The western perimeter of the storage site has an existing 6-foot high chain link fence and access gate with slats. Dublin Police Services recommends that an 8-foot high fence with security wire be utilized. Through the Conditional Use Permit process, a taller fence height may be utilized and Staff has included in the draft resolution a condition specifying this recommendation. Adequate parking for customers and employees will be provided on the site in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance. The Applicant will provide 15 parking spaces adjacent to the office building and approximately 100± parking spaces within the vehicle storage area. No additional on-site customer, employee and display parking is required. The proposed number of vehicle parking spaces on this site enhance the spaces on the existing dealership facility. Since the project's proposal includes access between two separate parcels under separate ownership, and since the proposed use will better facilitate the entire dealership's operation, a cross access easement will be required. This requirement is specified in the Draft Resolution as a condition of approval. -4- PAGE OF As part of this project, the Property Owner will dedicate a 40- foot wide right-of-way along the western portion of the property next to the Chabot Flood Control Channel. The Public Works Department has determined that this dedication will supplant the need to impose a traffic impact fee for this expanded use. As specified in the Draft Resolution, the Applicants will need to complete the dedication prior to the issuance of a grading permit. There are no zoning violations occurring at this site, and the project as proposed, is in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance and the Dublin General Plan. The project has been reviewed by other City departments and affected government agencies and their comments and concerns have been incorporated into the Draft Resolution, Exhibit B, as conditions of approval. The proposed use for the site is appropriate and compatible with the existing auto dealership use and in compliance with the intent and objectives of the M-1, Light Industrial District. 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 the Draft Resolution approving the Conditional Use Permit request or give Staff and Applicant direction and continue the matter. ACTION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the Draft Resolution, Exhibit B, approving the Conditional Use Permit for PA 94-040 Valley Auto Center.

The site fronts Scarlett Court and is situated adjacent to and west of the Valley Auto Center which is located at 6015 Scarlett Court. The site is bounded on the north by a vacant, flat concrete covered lot previously used for storage and display of mobile homes. To the south, the site is bounded by Scarlett Court and Interstate 580 which is currently under construction for widening improvements. The Valley Auto Center is immediately east of the subject site and a man-made trapezoidal storm drainage canal(Chabot Canal),Scarlett Drive and a U-Haul Truck Rental yard defines the west side. The site is currently developed and was previously occupied by Scotsman, a company that sold and serviced mobile homes. The site is approximately 75% paved with either concrete or as- phalt and is essentially flat. On site drainage is collected by a private storm drain system that connects to a storm drainage inlet in Scarlett Court,just east of the site. There are two existing buildings on the site. A concrete block sales office approximately 62' x 48'oriented to front Scarlett Court and a metal maintenance building approximately 40' x 40' is situated near the rear northeast corner of the site. Both buildings are vacant. An existing asphalt paved parking lot between the existing sales office building and Scarlett Court accommodates fifteen (15) parking stalls including one handicap stall. Access to this parking area is via two driveways on Scarlett Court. Between the sales office and the mainte- nance building is another parking area. This rear parking area is screened from view from Scarlett Court by a 4' to 6' high concrete block wall that matches the sales office. This huge parking area is all concrete and secured by a chain link fence. Access is currently by an ingress and egress easement along the entire west side of the site. A 12'wide flat landscape strip of turf with a variety of small trees including sycamore, pear and liquidamber with trunk diameters of 4" to 8" separates the parking lot from Scarlett Court. An 18' wide flat landscape strip with turf and small sycamore and liquidambers separates the site from the existing Valley Auto Center. A large open irrigated turf area is located immedi- ately west of the existing fifteen(15)stall front parking lot. Valley Auto Center is an established Dublin auto dealership offering sales and service for Nissan, Audi, Volkswagen and Dodge. Valley Auto Center now has 80 employees and has grown to the point where (1) it is out of space to display and sell autos, (2) to park or store autos for service and (3) to provide adequate employee parking off Scarlett Court. Therefore, the applicant, Valley Auto Center is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit(CUP) to allow the display and selling of autos in the front parking lot area and approval to park or store autos for service and provide employee parking off Scarlett Court in the rear parking lot. As part of this project, Valley Auto Center proposes to construct a new asphalt paved area approximately 90' x 150' in the large open irrigated turf area located west of and adjacent to the existing front parking lot to display approximately 32 autos along Scarlett Court. This new paved display area will not be striped for parking. The autos on display will be rotated and re- oriented on the lot from time to time to add interest to the display area and to improve and freshen the presentation of the autos. feCEIVED q4-o�{p ATTACHMENT I �fl AUG 1 6 1994 Co es AGE J orb • , Page Two The existing fifteen (15) stall front parking area will remain as is for customer parking. These fifteen (15) parking stalls meets (and exceeds) the City's required parking ratio of stalls to build- ing square footage. The existing concrete paved area between the existing sales office and existing maintenance building will be striped to identify 117 full size (9' x 20') parking stalls to accommodate the parking of autos to be serviced and parking for existing employees. This brings the total number of striped on-site parking stalls to 164. A new asphalt paved area will be constructed to make a direct connection between the existing concrete paved area for the proposed service and employee parking and the existing auto service garage on the Valley Auto Center parcel. This will facilitate efficient movement of vehicles from the parking area to the service garage. Customer and employee access to the service/employee parking area will be from Scarlett Court to control and maintain security. However, Valley Auto Center will maintain access to, and operation of, the existing gate in the chain link fence on the west side of this area for emergency access and occasional deliveries. Existing landscape strips approximately 10' wide along the Scarlett Court frontage will be con- tinued west along Scarlett Court and then turning north along the future northbound lane of the Scarlett Drive couplet. The proposed landscaping design will comply with the City of Dublin's Water-Efficient Landscaping Ordinance. Valley Auto Center also proposes to dedicate a 42' wide right-of-way to the City of Dublin for the future construction of the northbound lane of the Scarlett Drive couplet. No street im- provements will be constructed with this project. Based on the sales price of the +2.24 acres, the value of this ±.26 ac right-of-way dedication is approximately $150,000.00. This value shall completely offset any traffic study fee and/or traffic mitigation fees imposed on this project. The requested uses under this Conditional Use Permit are consistent with the General Plan designation of Business Park/Industrial: Outdoor Storage. The requested uses are also consistent with the Zoning designation of M-I, Light Industrial District. The requested uses are also compatible with the existing surrounding uses and would enhance the business activity_ in the Scarlett Court area by occupying a vacant facility. The proposed hours of operation of the sales business are 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM Saturdays and 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM Sundays, which are the same as those for the existing Valley Auto Center. No new employees are anticipated at this time. This expansion is to alleviate overcrowding of the existing Valley Auto Center site. Following approval of the Conditional Use Permit, Valley Auto Center will have Engineering Plans and Landscape Plans prepared for review and approval by the City of Dublin with the intent of immediately going to construction, as soon as the construction plans are approved by the City. It is anticipated construction of the improvements would be completed in 4 to 6 weeks and occupancy would follow immediately.

I spoke to Mr.Richard Hiett of the Board staff and asked him to explain the qualification in the letter which provided that"Further work could be required if conditions change or a water quality threat is discovered at the site." I also asked him to indicate whether the letter was a final action constituting closure of the matter or whether Board approval of the action or other proceedings were necessary before the action was deemed final. I finally asked • that he write a letter confirming his statements. He stated that he was willing to explain but that the letter received was the standard letter for closing when leaking underground tanks have been remediated and that there would be no further letters. Mr.Hiett stated that the qualifying sentence did not mean that they had knowledge,information or reason to believe that further investigation,monitoring or remediation was required in connection with the underground tank removal. Rather it was meant to indicate that while they had considered one source of contamination,the underground tanks,others might exist and if they were discovered,renewed investigation,monitoring and remediation might be • required. 1-le did state that it was possible that the soil chemistry of the site might change and that what is now an acceptably low level of residual contamination from the tanks might rise to unacceptable levels again. He also indicated that he-had no knowledge,information or reason to believe that such an increase might occur and thoughtthe probabilities of further investigations to see if it had occurred to be I'nil'I. i CElVE& AUG 1 6 1994 • PAGE 322 OF?

This report documents the remediation efforts and results of the environmental investigation that have occurred at the site since the removal of two 500 gallon gasoline underground storage tanks • (USTs) in October 1987. • At the times of .tank removal, holes and corrosion were noted on- '. the usTe. water was encountered in the pit at 6.5.feet depth. Soil samples collected at a depth of 8.5 feet exhibited up to 150 ppm MPH-G. MO water sample was collected. Preliminary site assessment to determine the extent of soil and groundwater contamination occurred from December 1988 through November 1989 with the advancement of soil borings around and through the former DST pit. Selected borings were converted into monitoring wells to delineate the dimension of the groundwater plume. These wells were screened appropriately to accommodate seasonal groundwater fluctuations. Laboratory analyses revealed coil.00ntamination to bo restricted to the 4-m-ediate vicinity around the uST pit with• up to 210 ppm TRE-G and 5,600 ppb benzene.' Groundwater.samples exhibited up to 76,000 ppb TPH-G and 6,200 ppb benzene. • By Jul'y' 1991, a groundwater treatment system was in full operation with three recovery wells. By March 1993, the system , had treated 853,170 gallons of water and the size of the groundwater plume was reduced to a small area within the former UST pit. • In August 1992 everexcavation of the soil within the former UST pit began. Approximately 75 cubic yards of clean soil and so yards of contaminated soil were removed, destroying three wells in this area. Soil samples collected from the sidewalls were below detection levels for TPH-C and BTEx. Stockpiled soil was characterized to determine proper disposal. nCleann stockpiled • • C dr'irsbL3. and Imported clean fill was used to backfill the pit.
