The property is located along the southwest corner of Castilian Road and Padre Way. The applicants request a rezoning from a combination of the A; Agricultural District and R-1-B-E; Single Family Residential Combining District to a PD; Planned Development District. They are concurrently proposing a Tentative Map to subdivide the property into 88 single family lots along with a five-acre parcel for use as a future public park site. Use of the site is governed by the Development Policies for Residential Sites contained within the City ' s General Plan which designates the site for a maximum of 88 single family lots (at 4 units per acre) . The General Plan also includes an implementation policy calling for a five-acre minimum neighborhood park on the site. If the PD Rezoning and Tentative Map are approved, the next step for the developer will be to submit a Site Development Review (SDR) request. The SDR will be handled at the Staff level and will be utilized to make a detailed analysis of the final grading plan and the proposed placement and architectural design of the homes proposed for this site. Specific design criteria have been incorporated into the proposed conditions of approval for the project that provide direction to the applicants regarding site grading and dwelling unit placement. These applications were subject at two Planning Commission hearings (May 20 and June 17 , 1985 ) . During the course of those meetings two primary issues emerged; 1) Grading at the southeast corner and general discussion of slope areas, and 2 ) effective lot sizes . Other issues discussed during the course of the public hearings (unit density, storm drainage, size/value of proposed units, park site location and configuration, use of flat lots, provisions of parking along cul-de-sacs, impact to schools, retaining walls,, area circulation, etc . ) have been addressed in detail in the two Staff Reports prepared for the Planning Commission. 1 . Grading At the Planning Commission hearing of June 17, 1985 , the Commission addressed potential adverse grading and visual impacts associated with the proposed development at the southeast corner of the site . The Planning Commission applied a condition of approval requiring that the project observe specific design modifications to adjust the grading design and the unit design and location for this portion of the site ( see Condition #41 of Exhibit D) . -2- 2 . Effective Lot Size The Commission addressed concerns regarding the proposed effective lot size/specifically the size of usable rear yard living space) . The Planning Commission applied a condition of approval ( see Resolution for PD Rezoning Condition #43 of Exhibit D) requiring the effective lot size to be maximized by using specific design modifications. The condition further establishes a minimum usable rear-yard space of 1, 375 sq. ft. After the June 17 , 1985, Planning Commission meeting, the applicants analyzed the conditions of approval . The applicants have indicated that the requirement within condition #43, which requires that the building pads for Lot 3 , 4 , 24-29 and 31-33 be lowered a minimum of five feet, introduces design problems given those lot' s relationship to the project ' s proposed street network and adjoining lots . It should be noted that these design problems exist are due to the developer' s desire to avoid using a front-to-rear split level model . If a split level model is not used, some of the lots would have only an 18"+ drop in the pad elevation instead of the five feet required by the Planning Commission. The Dublin San Ramon Service District recently contacted Staff to advise that they had concerns regarding the proposed routing of sewer mains for the southern portion of the project. As currently laid out, the routing of the sewer mains will require special access arrangements to manholes located within private property and corresponding adjustments to the grading plan along portions of the south and east perimeter of the property. Alternatively, the DSRSD Staff would prefer the sewer mains at the south east corner of the site to connect to Castilian Road between the fronting residential lots along Castilian Road. To pursue this option, the developer will have to secure easements and rights-of-entry with one or more of the existing landowners along Castilian Road. Staff recommends that the following language be added to Condition #51 of the Resolution for the Tentative Map (Exhibit E) . "The developer shall further demonstrate that access, in a manner determined acceptable to DSRSD, be provided to that section of the sewer main located other than within the public right-of-way. " Staff recommends that the City Council concur with the Planning Commission recommendations regarding these applications and take the following actions; 1 - Adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration of Environmental Significance (Exhibit C) 2 - Approve the Findings and General Provisions of the Planned Development Rezoning (Exhibit D) / 3 - Approve the Findings and General Provisions of the Tentative Map (Exhibit E) 4 - Waive the reading and introduce the Ordinance amending the Zoning Ordinance (Exhibit F) -3- Q V1 . e� f • 01� I l� _ 0 \\ } .�� Juarez Courf '00 Cv�✓ G-u,Q � p p Parkinq Exhc t l Scale' 1"% 40* Standard Large Car: 18'x6'9" RECEIVED DUBLIN pl-ANNING 5t "+ I of 5 Si\ce+s ��.

PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Dublin on this 8th day of July, 1985, by the folowing votes: AYES : / NOES : ABSENT: Mayor ATTEST: City Clerk CITY OF DUBLIN PLANNING COMMISSION SUPPLEMENTAL STAFF REPORT Meeting Date : June 17 , 1985 TO: Planning Commission FROM: Planning Staff SUBJECT: PA 85-005 . 1 and . 2 Murray School District Planned Development Rezoning and Tentative Map 5402 GENERAL INFORMATION PREVIOUS ACTION : The initial public hearing for this project was held on May 20 , 1985 . Following public testimony and discussion, the item was continued to the meeting of June 17 , 1985 , ( see Attachment 1 - Excerpt of Minutes of Commission Meeting of May 20, 1985) . Direction was given to Staff and the applicant from the Planning Commission as regarded the supplemental information and/or review requested by the Commission for the meeting of June 17 , 1985 . The purpose of this Supplemental Staff Report is to provide analysis of supplemental/revised information received from the applicant subsequent to the May 20th hearing and to provide information and/or review of the various items discussed at that hearing . REVISED SITE PLAN: A revised Site Plan was received on June 11 , 1985 , ( See Exhibit A) that proposed design solutions to a majority of the problems identified by Staff in its report of May 20 , 1985 . The major design modifications shown in this Tentative Map submittal are linked to the proposed elimination of one of the three cul-de-sacs previously shown to extend westerly off of Iglesia Drive . Elimination of the middle cul-de-sac is proposed to be done in conjunction with a lengthening of Regio Court ( increasing the number of new lots proposed off of this cul-de-sac from six to ten lots) , a realignment of Iglesia Drive (which pulls it more westerly into the site while providing a smoother alignment) and a shortening of Soleado Court (decreasing the number of lots) . Based on Staff ' s analysis of this plan, Staff feels the modified layout represents a substantial improvement over the plan submitted for the previous hearing. Problems relating to so-called "Sub-Area C" (the eight-lot middle cul-de-sac previously proposed off Iglesia) have been eliminated and substantial layout improvements to the park site have been provided ( improving the Park ' s configuration, increasing the length of park frontage along Iglesia Drive and decreasing the height and depth of slopes at the west side of the park) . REQUESTED INFORMATION/REVIEW FROM MAY 20 , 1985 , COMMISSION MEETING : The various items of discussion of the May 20 , 1985 have been grouped into the following categories to facilitate analysis and consideration : 1 . ANALYSIS OF ADJOINING SUBDIVISIONS-EXISTING AND PROPOSED . The applicant has provided a base map which graphically depicts existing and proposed development in the vicinity of the subject property . ( See Attachment 2 ) On this base map Staff has identified the seven discrete groupings of lots in the area and has charted ( See Attachment 3 ) the following information for each lot grouping ; Zoning designation, number of lots in area, / ----------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM NO. • 1 10�72nK7_ alj? �T llf j minimum lot size, average lot size, and house size range (excludes garages ) . A review of the surrounding subdivision activity leads Staff to a conclusion that the subject proposal is compatible to existing and surrounding development as regards lot sizes and proposed home sizes. A revised read-outs of the proposed project lot areas and average lot size have also been submitted by the applicant and have been incorporated into Exhibit A. In response to the discussion at the previous Commission hearing, Staff requested that the applicant prepare an analysis of the amount of lot area devoted to slope areas ( i .e . , % of net acreage proposed to be in slopes of three- horizontal to one vertical or steeper slope) . In lieu of performing that calculation, the applicant choose instead to make a detailed analysis of the project ' s proposed rear yard living space ( i .e. , clear and level area between rear of proposed units and any adjoining change in slope) . The applicant has indicated an ability to incorporate into the project a minimum design criteria requirement that a 15 foot rear yard living space be provided (clear and level rear yard area) with a bulk of units able to observe a standard of 18 feet. This change has been incorporated into proposed Condition #2 of Exhibit C . 2 . GRADING AT SOUTHEAST CORNER AND GENERAL DISCUSSION OF SLOPE AREA. Specific concerns about the proposed grading plan were voiced in . regards to the introduction of fill in the southeast corner of the project (creating building pads situated 20 to 35 feet above existing adjoining residential units ) , as regards the proposed use of retaining walls in the project and as regards the provision of usable-level living areas around the proposed dwelling units . The applicant has submitted for review a project section taken in the southeast corner of the project running from proposed Lot 32 and extending easterly offsite to one of the adjoining existing residential units (See Exhibit A - Project Section Southeast Corner) . A detailed review of the proposed pad elevations in this portion of the project has lead Staff to a determination that additional design modifications should be required to enable the building pads for Lots 3 , 4 , 24 - 29 and 31 - 33 to be lowered to the greatest extent possible and that additional design steps ( i .e . , use of landscaping, use of fencing, use of one-story dwelling units) be taken to mitigate resultant potential adverse visual impacts related to the development of these lots. Staff recommends that the developer be directed to incorporate specific design modifications into the project through the Site Development Review process to alleviate grading/visual impact concerns in this area. The specific design modifications for this area are outlined in proposed Condition #41 of Exhibit C and are summarized as follows; - Adjust slope of Obispo Court to maximize drop from Iglesia Drive while maintaining desired engineering standards ( i .e . , 6o maximum slope gradient at intersection and across cul-de-sac bulb) . Slope driveways downward from adjoining public streets Adjust lot configuration to allow use of single story units for the lots in this area ( this may be done in conjunction with the elimination of one lot in this area . A replacement Lot may be introduced in vicinity -2- Juarez Court, if deemed acceptable by the Planning Director as regards design implications for that portion of the project. Use split-level building pad putting garages one half floor ( 4 ' +) higher then the remaining living areas . Provide rear yard fences at the top of the proposed till . - Provide a tree planting program for rear slope areas with a minimum planting ratio of 1 tree @ 1, 000+ square feet . (Approximately 3-4 trees per rear yard of Lots in question) . Reduction, as feasible, of the depth of proposed building pads to allow gradient of rear slopes to be decreased. Use of terracing and/or retaining walls in the rear yard areas . Changes in the details of the proposed usable-level areas surrounding the proposed dwelling units have been discussed in Item #1 above and area laid out in detail within proposed '.Condition #2 of Exhibit C . The design of retaining walls has been modified to show use of a two foot (maximum) slumpstone masonary block wall ( see "Revised Retaining Wall Detail" within Exhibit A) . This will provide walls of a "workable" height and will provide for an improved life and stability of the walls that are developed. Staff has discussed with the applicant a need to provide a tree landscaping program for areas of high slope . Proposed Condition #38 of Exhibit C outlines a requirement that a one tree @ 1 , 000 square feet planting ratio be observed for slope areas created in conjunction with the project which create a resultant slope height in excess of seven feet. 3 . UNIT/PARKING LAYOUT FOR CUL-DE-SAC AND FLAG LOTS . A previously expressed concern of Staff has been that the number of lots proposed along the project ' s cul-de-sacs might create an on-street parking shortage due to provision an inadequate amount of street frontage. The applicant has prepared studies of the five proposed cul-de-sacs and the lots served by the private driveway ( see "Revised Cul-de- Sac studies" in Exhibit A) showing proposed unit footprints, driveway locations and means that the recommended standand of five parking spaces per lot would be achieved ( i .e. , two garage spaces, two driveway spaces and one on-street space or extra on-site space) . The, studies have been reviewed by Staff and determined to display an acceptable means to assure that the desired amount of parking is provided. Proposed Condition #42 of Exhibit C formalizes Staff ' s recommendation concerning street parking and provides for Staff review during the Site Development Review process . The studies prepared by the applicant are considered by Staff to also satisfactorily demonstrate lot development schemes for the project ' s seven "flag"-lots (Lots 4 , 42 , 43 , 51 , 68 , 81 and 82 ) with the exception of Lot 43 which will require an alternate unit selection to achieve the required 20 ' rear yard setback . 4 . SITE DRAINAGE . The revised tentative map has been reviewed by the City Engineer as regards proposed drainage improvements . Based on that review, modifications to previously recommended conditions of approval ( Exhibit E of May 20 , 1985 ) have been made . -3- r i Concerns regarding possible drainage problems at the north end of the site have been previously reviewed by the appropriate responsible agencies . The collective recommendations of these agencies have been incorporated into proposed Condition #44 of Exhibit D which requires that access to the adjoining offsite headwall structure behind Lot 1 of Tract 4077 be obtained by a public agency to provide for its regular maintenance ( this will be possible through the future park site) and that provisions be made in the grading and landscaping of the future park site to "capture and direct the overflow runoff through the park in a safe manner and to the storm draing system in Padre Way. " 5 . AREA CIRCULATION To facilitate an overview of probable future area circulation patterns, Staff utilized the area base map prepared by the applicant to analyze the probable alternate traffic routes future traffic from the adjoining Nielsen Ranch subdivisions might utilize . This information is detailed graphically on Attachment 4 . It is anticipated that traffic from 100+ units of the Nielsen Subdivision would utilize the future intersection of Rolling Hills Drive and Creekside Drive to reach San Ramon Road. The two routes are comparable in length in reaching San Ramon Road, though the Silvergate Route is anticipated to be the favored route. This would be due to the need to make fewer turning movements ( 2 versus 5 ) , the fact that the route would be more direct/smoother as a travel route and due to the fact that all travel from the original point of origin would be along streets designed to collector street standards . It is strongly anticipated that the bulk of traffic desiring to head north on San Ramon Road would still use the Silvergate route , even with the additional travel length ( 6 , 500+ feet versus 4 , 700+ feet) . This is due to the anticipated resultant travel time and travel ease advantages the Silvergate route is anticipated to privde despite its extra length. The provisions of a controlled intersection ( i .e . , a future traffic signal ) at Silvergate Drive and San Ramon Road is anticipated to provide further inducement for traffic to choose that route . Additional study looking at site specific drainage considerations should be required as part of a site specific Soil and Foundation Report. Preparation of a new report will be required as part of the subdivision process . 6 . MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS Concerns about the project' s impacts to local school populations was voiced at the May 20 , 1985 meeting . The applicant subsequently contacted the Murray School District who responded by way of their May 30, 1985, letter. Within the letter the district states that no attendance problems are foreseen in conjunction with this project ( see Attachment 5 ) . Questions were also raised concerning what number of lots can be established at this site and maintain consistancy with this site ' s General Plan designation. Factoring in the requirement that a five-acre park site is to be provided and that the existing land use designation and development policies call for 0 . 9 to 4 . 0 dwelling units per acre at this site, the possible range is 20 to 88 dwelling units . Based on an analysis of the supplemental materials submitted by the applicant and of the additional project review prompted by the testimony received at the Planning Commission meeting of May 20 , 1985 , Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the attached resolutions which collectively serve to recommend the City Council conditionally approve the subject proposal for an 88-unit Planned Development residential project . -4- RECOMMENDATION FORMAT: 1 ) Re=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 Resolutions ACTION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the attached resolutions (Exhibits B, C and D) which respectively serve as follows ; Exhibit B - Resolution recommending approval of a Negative Declaration of Environmental Significance ; Exhibit C - Resolution Recommending Approval of Planned Development Rezoning Application PA 85-005 . 1 ; Exhibit D - Resolution recommending approval of Tentative Map 5402 PA 85-005 . 2 .

NOTIFICATION: Public Notice of the May 20, 1985 public hearing was published in the Tri-Valley Herald, mailed to adjacent property owners, and posted in public buildings ANALYSIS• A. SUBMITTAL HISTORY The initial public review of a project covering the subject property was the property owners meeting hosted by the applicants on October 9 , 1984 , to describe the project in general terms and to get a reading of potential issue areas as expressed by the property owners . A summary of the those concerns were complied by the applicant and are included are as a background attachment for this report (see Attachment 5 ) . A preliminary plan was submitted for City comment and review the month following that property owners meeting. City Planning Staff summarized their comments and presented them to the applicant on December 3 , 1984 . The issue areas detailed within the Staff preliminary comments revolved around the following general categories; 1) Need for development of minimum dimensional lot criteria (minimum lot width, minimum lot area, etc . ) ; 2 ) Manner of lot-loading along cul-de-sac bulbs ;. 3 ) Traffic considerations, including project ' s connection to Castillian Road and future connection to development (s ) to the west) ; 4 ) Possibility of pursuing lot line adjustments to facilitate improved grading layout where project adjoins existing residential lots; 5) General Site grading considerations ; 6) Comments on problems seen on specific individual lots; 7 ) Comments on proposed park site addressing park ' s configuration, street frontage, gradient of slopes across park area, etc. A formal application was submitted for processing on January 22 , 1985 . The applicant was advised the application was incomplete in the form submitted on February 21, 1985 . Staff worked with the applicant during the period of February to April to address what was viewed as the two primary design considerations impacting development of a residential project on the subject property. Those two areas involved traffic considerations ( internal street design and impacts to area circulation) and park desicn (configuration, slope and access to the proposed park site) . Supplemental application materials were received during March and April and lead to preparation of a revised site plan which addressed the major staff concerns of the t-,..+o above stated issue areas . -4- B. REZONING CONSIDERATIONS From the outset of Staff ' s involvement with this proposal, STaff has indicated a desire to have the project processed as a Planned Development Rezoning proposal . This desire is in response to the site ' s unique characteristics including; the General Plan requirement to provide for a five acre park site, the 100+ foot elevation change present across the site (elevations range from 400+ feet in southeast corner of site to 500+ feet in northwest corner) , the relationship of the site to existing and proposed adjoining residential development, special traffic circulation concerns and the desire to assure development of a quality product. In general terms, utilizing the PD; Planned Development Rezoning process is envisioned by Staff as a means to assure a quality development while providing flexibility to lot layout and design. The applicant has expressed concern that imposition of the PD Zoning classification might trigger a requirement to prepare and submit a White-Paper Report for the State Department of Real Estate (D.R.E. ) . ' That process is considered by the applicant to be unnecessary, expensive and undesirable . An inquiry made to the Department of Real Estate to determine whether this type of project, a project involving no private streets or areas subject to common ownership or maintenance responsibility, would be required to be covered by a White-Paper Report . The project was described in detail to Mr . Bill Koeing of the Subdivision Section of the D.R.E. Mr . Koeing indicated that based on that description ( 88-lots, no common areas , development of public streets , etc . ) , that no White-Paper Report would be required for this project. Utilizing the PD; Planned Development Rezoning process will enable the City to require that residential units developed on lots established by this Subdivision be subject to the Site Development Review process . C . DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCT TYPE ' AND DEVELOPMENT OF DIMENSIONAL LOT DESIGN CRITERIA The product type envisioned by the applicant to be used in this project involves 88 single family detached residential units situated on lots ranging in size from 7 , 000 to 16, 500 square feet (with an average lot size of 8, 875+ square feet) . Four unit types are currently envisioned to be used with a mixture of 33 single story and 55 two-story units and with a unit size ranging from 1, 940 to 2, 457 square feet. J The applicant has proposed the following setback criteria for units in this project; Front setback - 20 ' minimum Rear setback - 10 ' minimum Sideyard - 7 ' minimum Aggregate Sideyard - 15 ' minimum Staff recommends that the listing of setback criteria be refined and expanded as follows : -5- Front setback - 20 ' minimum Rear setback - 20 ' minimum (with a 12 ' minimum clear area from building to top or toe of slope where present) Sideyard - 5 ' minimum and level Aggregate Sideyard - 15 ' minimum (with 10 ' minimum aggregate clear area from building to adjoining top or toe of slopes where present) Street-side Sideyard setback - 12 ' minimum D. DESIGN ANALYSIS OF SUBDIVISION SUB-AREAS To facilitate Staff ' s review and discussion of the lot-b g- lot design analysis, Staff has separated the project into four sub-areas . These areas are defined as follows; Sub-area A; Lots 1-33 and Lots 74-88 Sub-area B; Lots 34-47 Sub-area C ; Lots 48-55 Sub-area D; Lots 56-73 To graphically depict specific concerns and recommendations involving each sub-area, Staff has prepared a Staff Study for this project . The specific concerns and recommendations for each sub-area are listed in the following sections . Sub-Area A (See Exhibit B Sheet 1) The majority of identified design in this sub-area involve the size and/or configuration of proposed building pads . The identified concern areas by and large can be handled by slight modifications to lot configurations, use of 2 ' - 3 ' high retaining walls and/or introduction of side-to-side split level building pads . The specific areas of concern and proposed adjustments are summarized as follows; Lots 2 , 3 and 15 - 17 ; Swing rear property lines of Lots 2 and 3 into the rear area of Lots 15 - 17 to allow an increase in the size of the pads for Lots 2 and 3 . Lots 5 and 6 ; Shift a portion of Lot 5 into Lot 6 to increase lot 6 ' s pad width. - Lots 22 - 25 ; Swing rear property line of Lots 22 and 23 inward to allow an increase in the pad widths of Lots 24 and 25 . Lots 28 - 30 ; Adjust the lot lines between these three lots to increase the pad depth of Lot 28 . Lots 80 - 83 ; Revise the configuration of Lots 80 - 83 into more traditionally shaped cul-de-sac "pie-shaped" lots . The other area of concern in this sub-area involves the relationship of perimeter project grading proposed . at the rear of Lots 17 - 19 and at the side of Lot 7 as they respectively relate to existing graded slope areas located on adjoining, existing residential lots . For both these areas , Staff recommends that the developer be required jto diligently pursue the necessary approvals to perform bff-site grading to provide smoother transition of -6- slopes between existing residential areas and the subject project. In absence of securing said approvals, Staff recommends the developer be required to make all feasible modifications to proposed on-site grading to minimize the "angular-engineered" appearance of grading in the two areas . Sub-Area B (See Exhibit B Sheet 2 ) Problems identified by Staff in this sub-area are related to the configuration and horizontal alignment of Santo Court . Specifically, Staff feels the down slope areas below Lot 41 are excessive in depth and height and that the proposed design of Lot 40 is undesirable as relates to its orientation to surrounding streets proposed on three sides of that lot . Staff recommends that this proposed eight lot cul-de-sac be modified to a six lot cul-de-sac and that the length of the cul-de-sac be shortened from approximately 250+ feet to 150+ feet. Two lots previously accessed from the cul-de-sac (Lots 41 and 42 ) are recommended to be accessed from the opposite side with access running from Iglesia Drive between Lots 34 and 35 . This access is recommended to be by way: of a 20 foot wide easement over the side lot areas of Lots 34 and 35 . The 20 foot width can be picked up by minor adjustments to Lots 34 - 39 involving narrowing of the lots, use of 2 ' - 3 ' high sideyard retaining walls and/or introduction of side-to-side split level pads for some or all of those lots . Dependent on the layout of the resultant modified grading plan, Staff suggests a front-to-rear split level pad be considered for Lots 38 and 39 to further diminish the height of the slope area in the rear of those two lots . Sub-Area C (See Exhibit B Sheet 3 ) Sub-area C is the smallest of the four sub-areas and involves the seven lots ( 48 - 54 ) around Pescador Court and Lot 55 off of Iglesia Drive . Design problems identified by Staff in this sub-area involve the narrowness of the lots and the proposed building pad for Lot 48 (which would effectively preclude use of any of the four proposed footprints submitted by the applicant) . Design problems identified for Lot 52 make that lot, in Staff ' s opinion, the most undesirable lot in the entire subdivision. The problems seen with that lot involve the pad size ( 3 , 760+ square feet) the excessive grading proposed around the lot (slopes with a height of 11 feet, 9 feet and 7 feet surround three sides of the lot) and the shape of the proposed pad (which would result in creation of disproportionately small yard areas) . The final problem lot seen in this sub-area involves Lot 54 , whose small , square pad area would also create problems in providing what is considered to be adequate, level yard areas . In more general terms , the eight lots in this sub- area have a dispooportionately large amount of area devoted to slope when compared to their overall lot sizes . Although this is one of the more constrained areas as regards slope , the average lot size of the eight lots ( 8, 890+ sq. ft . ) is only marginally larger then the average lots size across the entire project ( 8, 875+ sq. ft . ) . Of that total , 280, or an average of over 2 , 500 sq. ft . , are proposed to be occupied by 2 : 1 to 3 : 1 slope areas . In response to the above points, Staff recommends that one lot be required to be eliminated from this sub-area creating a seven-lot cul-de-sac with more conventional]lot loading along the length of the cul-de-sac . / -7- Sub-Area D (See Exhibit B Sheet 4 ) Design problems seen by Staff in this sub-area are summarized as follows ; High slopes proposed for Lots 56 and 73 at the intersection of Soleado Court and Iglesia Drive raising these two pads 10+ feet and 12+ feet above the adjoining road grade for Iglesia Drive; The triangular configuration of Lot 71 which would make unit placement difficult ( if not impossible) for the footprints proposed; The extensive slopes falling off two sides of Lot 68 which would result in an encroachment into the proposed park site of a 56 foot wide - 26+ foot high slope area; The remaining section of slope area running along the rear of Lots 65 - 67 which range in width from 35 to 55 feet and from a height of 17 to 26 feet; The curving alignment of Soleado Court and its intersection with Iglesia Drive. In response to the identified design problems, Staff recommends that one of the eighteen lots in this sub-area be removed and that the following design changes be made; Requirement that front-to-rear split level pads be used for Lots 59 - 64 to allow grade of Soleado Court to be lowered 4 - 5 feet; Realignment of Soleado Court at Iglesia Drive to provide for a perpendicular street intersection; Adjustment to Lots 56 , 72 and 73 to have those lots front on Iglesia Drive and have the graded slopes between these lots and the lots they back up into moved to the rear of the three lots ; Lowering the pad elevations of lots 65 - 70 to the greatest extent feasible to minimize the height and width of slopes behind the lots. Shifting the point where the rear slopes of Lots 65 - 70 begin to fall off so that a portion of the slope change occurs within the rear of those lots to help further diminish the height and width of the slope encroachment into the proposed park site. The applicant) has been briefed as regards these proposed adjustments and has advised Staff of his desire to attempt to find an engineering solution to the points raised that will still facilitate the creation of 88 lots rather than conceding to Staff ' s recommendation of elimination of two lots . At the drafting of this report, no alternative solutions have been presented to Staff , but preparation and submittal of alternative studies are anticipated prior to the end of the week . Staff used the revised site plan dated received April 9, 1985 , as the basis for its review, and recommends approval of the plan as modified by the above report. f -8- RECOMMENDATION 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 Resolutions ACTION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the attached resolutions (Exhibits D, E and F) which respectively serve as follows ; Exhibit D - Resolution recommending approval of a Negative Declaration of Environmental Significance; Exhibit E - Resolution Recommending Approval of Planned Development Rezoning Application PA 85-005 . 1; Exhibit F - Resolution recommending approval of Tentative Map 5402 PA 85-005 . 2 .

Gailey presented the Staff Report advising the Commission that the initial public hearing for this project was held on May 20 , 1985 . Following public testimony the Commission continued the item to the June 17 , 1985 meeting. Mr. Gailey indicated that the purpose for the Supplemental Staff Report was to provide the Commission information received from the applicant subsequent to the May 20th meeting, analysis of that material and review of various items discussed at the May 20th hearing. Mr. Gailey indicated that Staff ' s analysis of the revised plan revealed that the modified layout represents a substantial improvement over the plan submitted previously. Mr. Gailey addressed on the major items discussed at the Mav 20th hearing and indicated what ramifications the revised plan and supplemental information had on those items special attention was given to the proposed grading layout in the southeast portion of the site . Mr. Gailey them advised that at the previous hearing the Commission had requested Staff to prepare an analysis of the amount of lot devoted to slope areas . In lieu of performing the calculations , the commission was advised that the applicant choose to make a detailed analysis of the project ' s proposed rear yard living space . Mr. Gailey advised that the applicant had indicated an ability to incorporate into the project a minimum design criteria requirement that a 15 foot deep rear yard living space be provided for each lot, with a bulk of proposed units able to observe a standard of 18 feet. Mr. Gailey indicated that Staff was recommending that the developer be directed to incorporate specific design modifications into the project through the SDR process to alleviate grading/visual impact concerns in the southeast portion of the site. The specific design modifications for this area were outlined in proposed Condition #41 . Cm. Raley asked if Staff had determined what impact the requirement that 1 , 375 sq. ft. of rear yard living space would have on the project . Mr. Gailey indicated that a majority of the lots would apparently be able to meet the standard without major modifications to the plan . Cm. Alexander opened the public hearing. Mr . DeHorn, representing the applicant, stated that lowering the pads by 5 ' may not be possible with the plan presented. Mr. DeHorn went on to advise that a meeting was held at Howard Johnson ' s with the nearby neighbors to discuss the various problems and concerns they had about the plan. Mr . Morgan, applicant, briefly described the project to the Commission and audience . He voiced concerns about Condition 1141 regarding the southeast portion of the project. Mr . Dennis Anderson, expressed concerns regarding the children that will be attending the schools in the area and regarding the traffic problems that may be related to the project as regards to Castilian Court . Mr . Gretchen Kirnigen and Mr . B regarding the minimum regarding i imu lot sizes . J4 IS Vr Mr. Mel Luna, asked if the conditions imposed on the project could be changed after the Planning Commission and the City Council approved them. He also asked if the park would be graded. Mr . Don Wilson, expressed support of Staff ' s proposed requirements for grading in the southeast portion of the project and indicated use of single story homes would be beneficial . He raised questions regarding how drainage would be handled. Mrs . Karen Heydorn and Mrs . Susan Elm expressed concerns regarding the availability of parking spaces for homes located along cul-de-sacs . Dr. Zebcon stated a desire to see larger homes established in the project, such as the Canyon Creek homes . He also stated he felt 88 lots were too. many for this site . Mr. Jim Hensen reiterated the concern that larger lots would appear to be warranted. Mr. Steve Sacks voiced concerns regarding drainage along Castilian, area traffic impacts and impacts on views . Mr . Dave Smith stated opposition to the pad sizes shown and indicated he felt too many homes were being proposed. Mrs . Gloria McDonald inquired about the meaning of a particular finding ( availability of housing stock) within the resolution for the Tentative Map . Mr. Heaton inquired about the proposed size of the single story units ( 1, 900 to 2 , 000 sq. ft . ) the projected prices range of the homes ( $180 , 000 to $200 , 000 starting prices) and the amount of two story units (mix to be determined with the SDR application) . Mr. Morgan, answering inquiries from the audience, advised the Commission of other projects they had developed. Mr. Dennis Anderson inquired about the need for the proposed five acre public park . Cm. Raley moved, seconded by Cm. Mack, that the public hearing be closed. Voice vote was unanimous ( 5-0 ) to close the public hearing. Cm. Petty inquired how drainage facilities at the base of the slopes would be maintained. Mr . Gailey indicated several items within the PD resolution that needed classification prior to any action by the Commission. Cm_ Raley initiated an indepth discussion about the intent and adequacy of the 1 , 375 sq. ft . minimum rear yard living area requirement and advised of his concerns about the access and location of Lots 42 and 43 . Cm. Alexander echoed that concerns about supplying adequate rearyard living area. A consensus was reached that the pertinent condition be modified to call for the rear yard areas to be maximized, but in no instance to be less than 1, 375 sq. ft . Cm. Alexander indicated a street light at the end of the private drive serving Lots 42 and 43 should be supplied. A consensus was reached that Lots 42 and 43 be retained with provision of a security light . Cm. Petty moved, seconded by Cm. Mack, to adopt the resolution recommending the City Council approve a Negative Declaration for the project. A voice vote found unanimous ( 5-0) support for the motion. RESOLUTION NO.

Raley raised several questions regarding flag lots , narrow stems , and tight parking on cul-de-sacs . John DeHorn and Bill Morgan, applicants, presented comments regarding density, storm drainage and grading conditions of approval . Karen Heydorn, Zapata Ct . , said the surrounding homes were much larger on quarter acre lots . Barbara Luna, Zapata way, said she was concerned with the long driveways . She also asked about future park useage . Cm. Alexander said that the Park and Recreation Commission would determine future uses of the park site . Mel Luna asked that the Planning Commission study the application longer. He asked that the retaining walls be examined. Dennis Anderson, Castilian Ct . , asked about drainage, traffic, grading, schools , and house sizes . Don Wilson, Castilian Rd. , said he was concerned about the proposed pad heights behind his house, and slope stability. Bill Behrman, Castilian Rd. , said he was concerned about storm drainage and traffic . John De Horn said that the proposed houses would be between 1900 and 2450 square feet in size and costs are estimated at between $180 , 000 and $200 , 000+. He also reviewed some of the proposed conditions of approval . Cm. Raley indicated he had some serious problems : effective lot sizes, too many lots , parking in cul-de-sacs , private driveways, and other concerns . Cm. Petty said the Planning Commission needed more time to study the application and to visit the site . He suggested that the item be continued for two meetings . Cm. Alexander wanted to have more durable retaining walls . Cm. Raley preferred fewer or no retaining walls . On motion of Cm. Mack, seconded by Cm. Petty, and by a 1-3 vote, Cm. Raley, Mack and Alexander opposed, the motion to close the public hearing failed. Cm. Raley asked for additional information regarding lot sizes and home sizes in the immediate area . Cm. Mack asked for information regarding school district impacts and long term plans . In answer to a question, Dennis Anderson said most houses on Castilian Rd. were between 1500 and 2000 square feet . Cm. Alexander continued the item until the June 17, 1985 Planning Commission meeting and set a site visit for 11. a .m. on Monday, May 27, 1985 .

VIII ^ l' L . a . 1 1-16-85 STATEMENT TO ACCOMPANY REZONING APPLICATION FOR A PORTION OF THE DOLAN SCHOOL SITE, CITY OF DUBLIN The Murray School District has determined that the Dolan School site is no longer required by the District and has offered it for sale. The City of Dublin ' s proposed General Plan indicates the appropriate use for this property to be single family residential (88 units) with a 5 acre park site. The applicant and prospective purchaser of the site from the school District has prepared an,d is concurrently submitting to the City a Tentative Map proposing development in accordance with the City' s proposed General Plan . The site is currently zoned R-1-B-E and Agricultural . The purpose of this application is to rezone the entire site to the planned Development District to allow development to proceed. It is proposed to establish in the rezoning a minimum site area of 7 , 000 sq. ft . , a minimum side yard of 5 ft . with an aggregate of 15 ft . The rezoning action will bring the City' s zoning into conformance with the proposed General Plan . The rezoning action by itself will entail no cost to the City. The development of the site will benefit the City by removing a large vacant lot with its potential problems , by increasing the City' s housing stock, by providing a 5-acre park site and by providing better traffic circulation to the adjacent areas , par- ticularly with relation to police patrol and emergency vehicle response. Future costs to the City will be typical of those associated with other residential areas including an extension of police patrol , street and storm drain maintenance and annual street lighting costs . These are minimal with respect to the percentage addition to the City' s costs for the same services to existing developed areas and should be offset by increased re- venues . In addition, the City will ultimately incur capital and annual maintenance costs in connection with the purchase and development of the park.

Box 2340 Dublin, CA 94568 RE: Application of W. I. Morgan Dear Larry: Heinz 'Gewing has asked that I write to you to confirm in writing the informa- tion that he provided you over the telephone. All of the developments that are planned for the area around Nielsen School , including the development by Kauffman and Broad and the proposal by William I. Morgan (dba Sacramento Developers, Inc. ) , are included in the School District's Master Plan. For the foreseeable future any increase in attendance that will result from those developments can be accommodated at Nielsen School . Additionally, if at some future time we find. that the capacity of Nielsen School is reached, Dublin School can be reopened as a Murray School District school . Sicnerely, Stanley L.
