DESCRIPTION: PUBLIC HEARING (Continued): P A 98-049 Planned Development (PD) District Rezone for property located at 7197 Village Parkway (R~port Prepared by: Carol ~ireIli, Senior Plannert.,ec..... 1. Ordinance adopting Planned Development Zoning District (with Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plan attached as Exhibit 1A). 2. Exhibit 1A (Stage 1 and 2 Development Plan) showing Revisions per City Council Direction (pp. 1 - 3 only) 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Open public hearing and hear staff presentation Take testimony from the public Question staff and the public Close public hearing and deliberate Waive second reading and adopt the Ordinance approving P A 98-049 Planned Development (PD) District Rezone for 7197 Village Parkway At the December I, 1998 City Council meeting, the City Council waived the reading and introduced the ordinance approving the PD District Rezone for property located at 7197 Village Parkway. The PD District ordinance (Exhibit 1) rezones the property from the C-2, General Commercial Zoning District to a PD District. The PD District establishes permitted, conditional and prohibited uses, and development standards that would best meet the needs of the City for creating more retail opportunities - within the downtown. The PD Zoning District would be subject to the C-1, Retail Commercial Zoning District provisions of the Zoning Ordinance, particularly with regard to land use restrictions and minimum/maximum development criteria. Application of the PD District zoning standards would result in a pedestrian-oriented commercial development that would be compatible with the surrounding retail, office and restaurant uses in the downtown. The permitted uses for the PD District fall within three main categories: Community-Serving Retail; Office and Service; and Eating, Drinking and Entertainment. At the December 1 SI meeting, the City Council requested a clearer definition of the term "Entertainment" and requested that any entertainment- . ---------------------------------------~~;:i~;;~~;------;~~~-:;t~~~::~------------------------------- P A File Project Manager g:\pa98-049\12-15ccsr ITEM NO. 6~ 1 related use be allowed as a conditional use versus a permitted use within this PD District. The term "Entertainment" as used within this PD District basically refers to uses that are associated with entertainment, such as video rentals; theater; billiard and pool hall, etc. Because these types of entertainment uses are already covered under the "Recreational FacilitylIndoor" definition of the City's . Zoning Ordinance, the word "Entertainment" can be deleted from the "Eating, Drinking and Entertainment" category. In addition, uses that fall under the "Recreational FacilitylIndoor" definition require a use permit within the C-1 and C-2 commercial districts, which satisfies the Council's request that any entertainment-related use require a use permit. Staff also recommends that the "Video Rentals" use under "Eating, drinking and entertainment" be moved to the "Community-serving retail" section since video rental establishments are more retail-service oriented. Exhibit 2 of the staff report includes the suggested PD District revisio~s in strikethrough, bold and italics. CONCLUSION The proposed rezone for 7197 Village Parkway is consistent with the City's General Plan policies because the project will promote compatible commercial retail and office development within the Dublin's downtown area. In addition, the PD District contains adequate development standards that will provide a framework for processing a future development project at the site. If the City Council approves the PD District rezone, staff will return with an Ordinance to lift the moratorium at the time the PD District becomes effective. RECOMMENDATION 1) Open public hearing and hear staff presentation; 2) take testimony from the public; 3) question staff and the public; 4) close the public hearing and deliberate; 5) waive the second reading and adopt the . Ordinance approving P A 98-049 Planned Development (PD) District Rezone for 7197 Village Parkway. . 2 . . . / _< It!

Any future development that is proposed for the project site will be subject to CEQA review; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing on the PD District Rezone, Development Plan on November 10, 1998, and did adopt a Resolution recommending that the City Council approve a Planned Development Rezone and a Development Plan for P A 98-049; and .

WHEREAS, pursuant to section 8.32.070 and 8.120.050 of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council makes the following findings: 1. The Proposed Planned Development Zoning District and Development Plan (Stage I and 2) meet the purpose and intent of Chapter 8.32 of the Zoning Ordinance because they will provide retail . commercial and office uses that are appropriate for a site which is located at a major intersection within the Dublin's downtown instead of automotive related uses, which would be possible under the requirements of the C-2 Zoning District; and 2. Development under the Planned Development Zoning District and Development Plan (Stage 1 and 2) would be harmonious and compatible with existing and future development in the surrounding areas and especially with the residential area to the south due to the setback, parking and landscape requirements of the Planned Development Zoning District and due to the prohibition of automotive and drive-through uses that would likely cause land use incompatibilities with the adjacent residential uses, and potential noise and air quality impacts; and 3. The PD Rezone is consistent with the general provisions, intent, and purpose of the PD District Zoning District of the Zoning Ordinance in that it contains all information required by Chapter 8.32 of the Zoning Ordinance for a Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plan and accomplishes the objectives of Chapter 8.32, A through H, of the Zoning Ordinance; and 4. The subject site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the zoning district being proposed because it is located within a developed downtown area, was previously developed, and because it is located adjacent to roadways which are designed to carry traffic that would be generated by the proposed types of uses; and 5. The proposed amendment will not adversely affect the health or safety of persons residing or working in the vicinity, or be detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare because the project has been . 2 . . . 3 ~ /1 built according to City laws and regulations and because the Planned Development Zoning District will limit land uses to those which are appropriate for this site; and 6. The proposed amendment is consistent with the Retail/Office designation of the Dublin General Plan and the proposed use types are permitted by said designation. NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Dublin does ordain as follows: SECTION 1.
