BACKGROUND:
The Annual Review of Development Agreements is required by State law and Chapter 8.56 of the City' s
Municipal Code. During the review period the City Council has the opportunity to review the
compliance of the parties of the Agreement and either determine the parties are in compliance and
conclude the review; or, if the City Council determines that parties have not complied in good faith, the
City Council may modify or terminate the Agreement. The burden of proof of good faith compliance is
on the developer.
The various City Departments have reviewed the fifteen Development Agreements, and comments were
returned to the Community Development Director. Many of the larger improvements are either bonded or
scheduled to be completed as the projects proceed. Staff has concluded that the developers for these 15
projects are proceeding in good faith with the terms of the Development Agreements.
If any Council member has concerns about the compliance of a particular developer, that Development
Agreement will be set for a public hearing at a future City Council meeting.
The following Development Agreements are due for annual review at this time:
Santa Rita Commercial Center (formally known at Homart, now known as Hacienda Crossings
Retail/Entertainment Commercial Center) - In compliance - This project is nearly complete. The issue
of Fire Station land dedication has been resolved. The negotiations for this are taking place, and the City
is confident the station site will be acquired shortly. Opus has recently sold this property.
California Creekside/Brookside - In compliance - This project is almost complete. The houses have been
completed and occupied; however, the City is holding bonds to assure the successful completion of the
remaining items to be done. Kaufman & Broad has been working to complete the landscaping and
hardscape improvements along Dublin Boulevard and Central Parkway. The landscaping has been
completed, but much work is still to be done to repair sagging soundwalls, place lamps, repair paving and
curbs, repair a metal gate at the end of Pheasant Court and other minor issues. Staff is confident these
items will be completed to the City' s satisfaction.
Hansen Ranch - In compliance - Most of the items have been completed. The trail along the creek has
not yet been accepted. The contractor is currently completing a punch list and is moving forward towards
the completion of this project. In addition, Staff is working with the Alameda County Fire Department
regarding weed abatement and firebreaks. Staff is confident these items will be completed to the City' s
satisfaction.
Villas at Santa Rita - In compliance - This project is nearly complete, except for one right turn lane on
northbound Hacienda Drive to eastbound Central Parkway that can be constructed when determined it is
warranted by the Public Works Director.
Summerglen - In compliance - Units are being completed at this time. Improvements required under the
Development Agreement are being constructed currently. The recreation center and landscape
improvements required by the Development Agreement will be constructed in the near future. The final
striping and landscaping of Gleason Road between Tassajara Creek is being completed at this time. There
has been no indication from Alameda County of any problems regarding future compliance with the
Agreement.
