UNFINISHED BUSINESS - NONE. 7. NEW BUSINESS 7.1. Report on Dublin Unified School District’s Proposed Acquisition of the Dublin Ranch Area G Property and General Plan Conformity The Dublin Unified School District (DUSD) is considering the acquisition of real property within the City of Dublin for use as a public school. The subject property consists of approximately 25.1 acres located at the southeast Corner of Chancery Lane and Central Parkway, known as Area G or more commonly known as “The Promenade” property. The majority of the site has a General Plan land use designation of Neighborhood Commercial, with a smaller portion designated Public/Semi-Public. In accordance with Public Resources Code 21151.2, DUSD provided the City with written notification of its proposed acquisition, which provides the Planning Commission with an opportunity to investigate the proposed site and provide a written report of the investigation and recommendation. In addition, per Government Code section 65402, prior to DUSD acquiring the property, the Planning Commission must review the proposal for consistency with the General Plan. The proposed use of the site for a school is inconsistent with the existing Neighborhood Commercial land use designation in the General Plan. Understanding that DUSD has identified the need for an additional school site, if the District proceeds with the proposed site acquisition and uses their ability to override applicable zoning ordinances, recommendations are provided in order to help ensure compatibility with the surrounding uses. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the Written Report of the Planning Commission to the Dublin Unified School District pursuant to Public Resources Code §21151.2 and Government Code §65402, for submission to the Dublin Unified School District. 8. OTHER BUSINESS Brief information only reports from Planning Commission and/or Staff, including committee reports and reports by Planning Commission related to meetings attended at City expense (AB1234). 9.
