The proposed Planned Development Zoning District meets the intent and purpose of Chapter 8.32 of the Zoning Ordinance because it provides a comprehensive Development Plan which will create a more desirable use of land than would have been provided if developed under the R-M Zoning District or in combination with any other existing Zoning District. Additionally, the Planned Development will create an environment that will be sensitive to surrounding land uses by virtue of the layout and design of the architecture and site plan. The Jefferson at Dublin Project is a multi-family project within the ranges of medium high density residential which is consistent with both the City of Dublin General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. 2. Development under the Planned District Development Plan will be harmonious and compatible with existing and future development inthe surrounding area because the site plan has been designed to fit into the proposed and approved plans for the neighborhood, including the future elementary school, single family residential homes and office complex proposed around the project. Adequate setbacks and complementary architectural designs and landscaping proposed in the Development Plan have been specially designed to enhance and fit into the new neighborhood. 3. The project site is physically suitable for a multi-family project in that it is flat, surrounded on all four sides by adequate right-of-way and is of a sufficient size to provide housing as well as open space for the future residents of the project. Additionally, the Development Plan provides for development at a density of 22.75 units to the acre which is consistent with the General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan Land Use Designation for this site. 4. 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 or welfare because the Development Plan has been designed in accordance with the City of Dublin General Plan, Eastern Dublin Specific Plan and Program EIR and Addenda as well as the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan Amendment and Mitigated Negative Declaration. Additionally, project specific analysis has determined that the project's design is sensitive to proposed surrounding land uses.
