ZONING HISTORY:
The subject property was zoned C.2 by Al~eda County so~etime in the
1960's.
No planning applications for the subject property beyond ACUP's for
Christmas Tree sales have been processed.
The property is adj acent to and would concect wi th t'~e existing Crm,.1
Chevrolet Auto Dealership. A Conditional vse Permit (CUP) was approved
by the County for the auto dealership in 1969. This CUP was amended in
1972 and 1973 for provision of portable sales office, addition of
parking and structural (building) additions. No tim, limits exist for
these CUP's.

APPLICABLE REGULATIONS:
Section 8-49.2 g) lists automobile ssles or storage lot as a conditional
use for the C-2 zone.
Section 8-94.0 states that conditional uses must be analyzed to
determine: 1) whether or not the use is required by the puolic need; 2)
whether or not the use will be properly related to other land uses,
transportation and service facilities in the vicinity; 3) ~hether 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 pefo~nce standards established for the district
in which it is located.
Section 8-94.4 states the approval of a Conditional ~se Permit may be
valid only for a specified term, and may be made contingent upon the

~ the following matters:
a) substantial conformity to approved plans and drawings;
b) limitations on time of day for the conduct of specifiei activities;
c) time period within which the approval shall be exercis,d and the proposed

ENVIRom1ENTAL REVIEW:
NOTIFICATION: Public Notice of the April 17, 1939, hearing was published
in The Herald, mailed to adjacent property o'Nners, and posted in public
buildings.
ANALYSIS:
At the request of the Applicant. this item was continued from the Planning
Commission hearing of April 17, 1989, so that the Applicant could evaluate
other alternatives for this project.
The Applicant submitted a revised site plan for storage of 118 vehicles.
This revised plan deletes the proposed 134 spaces for employee/customer
parking and revised the storage area from 102 to 118 vehicles. The revised
plan uses only the northern half of the property.
Conditional Use Permit
The applicant has requested a Conditional Use Permit and Site Development
Revie'" for a "5-year use permit to allow temporarj paving... to provide
additional car storage facilities for the existing dealers~ip and
employee/customer parking," "
It has been the policy of the Planning Commission to appro've new conditional
use permits for a period of one year with extension for ~N~ additional years
if approved by the Planning Director. In a sense, all coniitional use permits
are for a temporary use of the property. Subsequent approvals of conditional
use permits by the Planning Co~ission have been for three years with
extensions of two years if approved by the Planning Director.
Future Right-of-Wav
In October 1988, the City Council adopted a r1gnt-of-way line for a road
parallel to and southerly of Dublin Boulevard. A portion ,f this adopted
right-of-way transverses the subject property. The northerly 68 feet of the
parcel is part of the adopted right-of-way.
The right-of-way
Ordinance 44.87.
structure within
for this ne~ road was adopted under the procedures of
This ordinance makes it unla~ful to construct a building or
the established right-of-way lines,
Ordinance 11-88 adopted in March 1988 states that "no conditional use permi~
shall be issued in connection with the construction of any building or
structure on any lot if the use or such building or struct~re will result in
an increase in traffic on the street or streets upon which such lot abuts or
will abut unless the area within the future right-of-way lines have been
granted to the City,"
The definition of building or structure in Ordinance 44-87 includes "requirec
parking". The additional parki~g/s~orage area requested i"~ this condition~l
use permit is not required and therefore is not defined as a building or
structure.
The intent of the Ordinance reqclrlng: dedication and i!Jpro.'terr.ent of right-of-
.ay (Ordinance ll-SS) is to req~ire dedication .hen a use ,f property res~l:s
in an increase in traffic on adjacent streets thus requiri~g additional
right-of.\~ay to accomodate the additional traffic. The City traffic engir.ee~
evaluated the effect of the expa~ded parking area for Crow~ Chevrolet on local
streets. Using a worst case scenario for traffic generatiJn from this use,
the traffic engineer concluded that any increase associatej \<lith the proposec
use in traffic was not significant.
Since the use is not a "building or structure" within the :neaning of the
ordinance and therefore is not prohibited in the future right-of.way and si~~~
the use ,,,QuId not result in a sibrdficant generat.i01\ of tr3ffic, the
3pplic3nts are not being req~ired to dedic3te or impro\-e ajditional right-o:'-
\"ay.
-3-
Staff believes that the storage/parking lot i~- consistent .ith the Downtown
Specific Plan. The parking lot will support the existing auto dealership, and
is consistent with the use of the area for Regional Transit/Mixed Use. The
downto'Nf'. Specific Plan standards for interim use of this property requires
prohibition of development which would preclude the economical development of
transit parking, Although the request is for a "temporary" storage
area for Crown Chevrolet, it is conceivable that until the parallel road is
constructed (or if it is never constructed) their storage lot would be used
by future regional Transit/Mixed-Use developments for parking. This site
easily could be used for transit parking in the future.
Since the requested use is consistent with the Downto'Of'. Sp,cific Plan and
zoning, Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit.
Site Development Review
The Downtown Specific Plan provides much guidance for the development and
redevelopment of parking lots. There are at least six references to adequate
landscaping of parking lots and screening of lots from the street. The intent
of the landscaping is to improve the visual quality of the parking lot,
specifically, and the downto'Of'. in general. In addition, landscaping parking
lots has the benefit of reducing temperatures in and arouni the parking lot.
The applicant believes that as the use of the property is "temporary",
landscaping should not be required, As explained in the above section on the
Conditional Use Permit, all CUP's are temporary due to tim. limits placed on
them. In order to promote the goals of the Downto_n Specific Plan, the land-
scaping should be required.
Staff is suggesting a landscaping scheme that meets the intent of the Downtown
Specific Plan yet could preserve the maximum amount of the landscaping if the
property is redeveloped. Attachment 5 illustrates the requirements in Conditions
#18 and #19 of having a minimum 10 foot strip on the \'lest, south and east sides
of the entire property, plus the use of four proposed spaces for landscaping.
Staff recommends that Site Development Review approval be conditioned on
landscaping a minimum of 20% of the surface area.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE Dublin Planning Commission
finds:
a) Construction of the new paved vehicle ~torage lot area serves the public
need by providing for the expansion of an existing automobile
dealership facility.
b) The use will be properly related to other land uses, and transportation
and service facilities in the vicinity, as the proposei uses will be
compatible to said land uses, and transportation and services facilities
in the immediate vicinity.
c) The use will not materially adversely affect the health or safety of
persons residing or working in the vicinity, or be mat,rially detrimental
to the public welfare or injurious to property or impr,vements in the
neighborhood, as all applicable regulations will be met.
d) The use will not be contrarj to the specific intent clauses or performance
standards established for the district in which it is to be located.
e) The approval of the project as conditioned is in the b,st interest of the

General site considerations, as conditioned, including site layout,
