PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Applicants are proposing residential and commercial development for their collective parcels totaling

approximately 500 acres with up to 1,517 people, 474 homes, a neighborhood and a community park, and
nearly 11 acres of retail/office uses.
BACKGROUND
This project site is part of an area that the City of Dublin has designated as the Western Extended
Planning Area. The Dublin General Plan states that specific development in this area will be determined
when municipal services can be provided and through General Plan refinement studies.
In July of 1996, after several public hearings before the Planning Commission and the City Council, took
the following actions:
1) Certified the Schaefer Ranch project EIR and adopted the Mitigation Monitoring
Program for the project
2) Adopted the General Plan Amendment,
3) Adopted the Planned Development Prezone General Provisions and Land Use and
Development Plan
4) Authorized initiation of an application for reorganization to the Alameda County Local
Agency Formation Commission

ITEM NO.
On January 9, 1997 the Local Agency Formation Commission considered the City's reorganization
request, and took action denying (without prejudice) the annexation request, due to concerns wIth the
commitments of certain service providers potentially affecting the availability of certain City service5
(namely, water and wastewater services). Subsequently, additional information has been provided, and ',-
agreements have been made, indicating resolution of concerns regarding areawide wastewater service an.--
demonstrating the commitment sought by the Commission. Now that these concerns with the project
have been addressed, it is appropriate to request reconsideration of the annexation by the Commission.
The attached Resolution authorizes staff to formally re-initiate the request for reorganization to LAFCo.
Additional information on the history of the project is contained in Background Exhibit A.
A letter from the project engineer representing the developer has been received indicating the developer's
support for moving forward with the application to annex the property at this time. A copy of this letter is
attached as Background Exhibit B.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution authorizing re-initiation of an application
for reorganization to the Alameda County Local Agency Formation Commission, as set forth in Exhibit I.

ANNEXA TION INFORMATION
.
The project site is currently within the unincorporated portion of Alameda County. In order for the
proj ect to come under the jurisdiction of the City of Dublin, annexation of the site to the City must be
approved by the Alameda County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo). The LAFCo prefers
that a city prezone an area proposed for annexation, and that prezoning must be consistent with the
approved General Plan land uses for the property. The PD Prezoning approved in July of 1996,
establishes the appropriate land uses to be in effect at the time the project site becomes a part of the city,
and addresses this requirement.
The reorganization proposal includes: Annexation of the project site (500.28:i: acres) to the City of
Dublin; Annexation of 500.28.::!: acres to the Dublin San Ramon Services District; Annexation of 339.63:i:
acres to Zone 7 of the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (Zone 7);
Detachment of this acreage from Zone 2 of the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation
District; and Detachment of 328.68.::!: acres from the Hayward Area Recreation and Park District
In terms of annexations to the City and various service districts, the providers of public services such as
water, sewer, schools and other services have reviewed the annexation proposal. As part of the LAFCo
review process, these providers were contacted regarding their ability to provide services to the project
site. Letters confirming a commitment to serve the site have been received, and studies have been
prepared to demonstrate that facilities and service can be provided, including the standards and conditions
of approval. These commitments are a part of the application package submitted to LAFCo. :"_
As with the Eastern Dublin annexation, services for this annexation may not be available immediately
upon approval of annexation. Planning and engineering studies for water and sewer infrastructure will be
required to address facilities needed to serve the annexation area, and the project proponents will likely
need to enter into agreements with the service districts. However, the agreement and commitment to
serve this and other area projects was recently demonstrated with the consensus reached regarding the
"Principles of Agreement" for the LA VWMA Expansion Project between the Dublin San Ramon
Services District, and the Cities of Pleasant on and Livermore, to serve projects within the Tri-Valley area.
In terms of detachment of the project site from various service districts, the proposed reorganization of the
Hayward Area Recreation and Parks District boundary, as well as the Alameda County Flood Control and
Water Conservation District (ACFCWCD) boundaries are supported by these Districts. Action in support
of the reorganization have been taken by the Board of Directors of both agencies, and letters confIrming
these actions have been provided to the LAFCo.
Staff believes the annexation is a logical extension of the Dublin City limits, and the project would
provide an efficient, orderly and planned extension of urban development in the City's western extended
planning area that is appropriate for the site.

RE: Schaefer Ranch (f'A94-028) Reorganization
Dear Eddie,
This letter is to acknowledge that our client, Schaefer Heights, Inc., supports the City of Dublin
it its effort to re-initiate the reorganization proceedings with the Local Agency .Formation
Corrunission for the Schaefer Ranch. This re~initiation effort is due to recent information
indicating that a resolution to the areawide concern of providing wastewater service is eminent.
With the resolution of the wastewater service issue, Schaefer HeightS, Inc. agrees" with the City
staf{that all concerns with the proj eet have been addressed, and it is now appropriate to request
reconsideration of the annexation at this point given the time frames needed to: complete the
process.
, Vle plan to be prese:nt at the May 6, 1997 City Council meeting to answer any questions that
may, arise.
Very truly yours
