Exhibit A
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF DUBLIN AND THE COUNTY OF ALAMEDA
REGARDING THE ENFORCEMENT OF CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL FOR THE
EAST COUNTY HALL OF JUSTICE
This agreement ("the Agreement") is entered into this 16th day of November,
2004 by and between the City of Dublin, a municipal corporation ("the City"), and the
County of Alameda, a political subdivision of the State of California ("the County"). The
City and the County are referred to collectively as "the Parties."
RECITALS
1. The Parties are parties to that certain agreement entitled "Agreement
Between County of Alameda, Surplus Property Authority and City of Dublin Regarding
Transfer of Property Tax Revenues Upon Annexation, Provision of Services and Other
Matters," dated May 4,1993 ("the Annexation Agreement").
2. The Annexation Agreement provides that with respect to the County
Governmental Property (as defined) any county governmental uses proposed for the
property shall be subject to site development review in accordance with the City's
zoning ordinance.
3. In the Annexation Agreement, the parties also agreed
"in concept that infrastructure shall be constructed as necessitated by
development and to accommodate reasonably projected development
and that the costs of such infrastructure should be borne by the properties
benefiting therefrom in proportion to the benefit received."
4. The County proposes to construct the East County Government Center on
the County Governmental Property (lithe Project"), and, pursuant to the Annexation
Agreement, the County has applied to the City for site development review approval
("the SDR").
5. The City during the processing of SDR determined that certain conditions
of approval should be imposed upon the Project, including obligations to pay the City's
development impact fees, which fund infrastructure that serves the County
Governmental Property and other property in the City. The City believes that the
Annexation Agreement authorizes the imposition of such conditions on the County.
6. The County believes that many of the conditions that the City desires to
impose on the Project, including some of the development fees, are neither authorized
by the Annexation Agreement nor otherwise by law.

ÈXHIS"1f A
7. In order to expedite the processing of the Project and to avoid further
disputes, the County has agreed, for purposes of this Project only, to subject itself to
certain conditions of approval (attached as Exhibit A-1 to this Agreement and
incorporated herein by this reference) ("the Conditions"), which conditions include the
payment of all or a portion of certain city development impact fees for infrastructure,
and the City is willing to agree to impose only the Conditions, provided that a
reasonable means of enforcing the Conditions against the County is available to the
City.
8. The City typically enforces conditions of approval by refusing to issue
further approvals, such as building permits and occupancy, until the conditions are
satisfied, but the City does not have further approvals on this project.
9. To ensure that the City has adequate remedies to enforce the Conditions,
the Parties desire to set forth their agreement that the Conditions may be enforced by
specific performance.
NOW, THEREFORE, with reference to the foregoing recitals and in
consideration of the mutual promises, obligations and covenants herein contained, the
City and the County agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
Section 1. County Subject to the Conditions. Without in any way consenting
to the City's interpretation of the Annexation Agreement, the County agrees to be
subject to the Conditions.
Section 2. Conditions Mav Be Enforced bv Specific Performance. The Parties
agree that, should the County refuse to comply with the Conditions, the City would not
have adequate remedies at law and that the City's remedy for such a breach is to bring
a lawsuit to enforce the Conditions and seek an order of specific performance.

contained in this Agreement, and the introductory paragraph preceding the Recitals, are
hereby incorporated into this Agreement as if fully set forth herein.

55. Change proposed ground cover material on the northernmost 120 feet of the median between the
main entrance and exit drive to a plant that is close to the ground and does not achieve any height.
Since the stop sign is proposed to be removed for northbound vehicle traffic in order to encourage
better flow from the Hacienda/Gleason intersection (See Condition #23), changing the ground
cover to something that is low-lying will ensure that visibility is not obstructed. Installing
hardscape (i.e. river rock or other decorative paving) in this area would also be acceptable and
would guarantee that landscape does not grow to a height to compromise traffic safety.

County Surplus Property Authority land (of which this parcel is a part) include design items that
have not yet been integrated into the Project Landscape Plans. The Streetscape plans show a
separated sidewalk along Gleason Drive and the Cinnamomum camphora (Camphor Tree) as the

separated sidewalk along the entirety of the Gleason Drive frontage. In the Emerald Park
Streetscape Design Guidelines, a 13' wide parkway strip is shown. However, Staff is willing to
accept a smaller 6' parkway strip between the street and the 6' wide sidewalk in the interests of
