Tim Sbranti, Dublin resident and Dublin High teacher, reported on a School Board
initiative regarding building a community of character in Dublin. The Committee,
which included Mayor Lockhart and Cm. Hildenbrand, created a survey for Dublin
residents, and a link had been put on the City's website, wwvv.ci.dublin.ca.us. The
Council and community were encouraged to fill out the survey, which would help
determine what values Dublin residents wanted to be promoted within the community.
The program would link the efforts of the School District with the character programs
promoted by the City, as well as businesses and non-profit organizations. After the
survey data was compiled, the Committee would return to the City with a concrete
proposal of how they hoped the City would financially participate in the program.

Mayor Lockhart advised that she had pulled Item 4.2 (600-35), Acceptance of Work -
Dolan Park Playground Renovation, Contract No. 05-10, because she had received
comments of concern from park neighbors about the color of the playground equipment
and asked about the public comment process.
Parks & Facilities Development Coordinator Rosemary Alex reviewed past practice of
selecting playground equipment and advised that input from professional Staff and the
playground manufacturer was used in the selection of color combinations. Alamo Creek
and Stagecoach Parks were currently in the works, and Staff could solicit more
community input in the process, if the Council desired.
Mayor Lockhart stated that the neighbors should be given the opportunity to comment
since they lived near the park.
Ms. Alex advised that Staff would move forward with that on future projects.

Mayor Lockhart opened the public hearing.
Associate Planner Jeff Baker presented the Staff Report and advised that the City Council
would consider a request to certify the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Report
(EIR), and approve a General Plan and Specific Plan Amendment and a Stage 1 Planned
Development (PD) Rezone to allow construction of 3,108 residential units and 2,503,175
square feet of non -residential development for the overall Fallon Village project.
Additionally, the City Council would consider approving a request for a Stage 2 PO
Rezone and a Development Agreement for the northerly 488 acres of land
owned/ controlled by Braddock and Logan. The proposed project, formerly known as the
East Dublin Property Owners (or EDPO), is located east of Fallon Road and the Dublin
Ranch project, west and southwest of the City Limits boundary with unincorporated
Alameda County, and north of 1-580.
Planning Consultant Jerry Haag reviewed the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact
Report (FSEIR), which supplemented both the 1993 EIR and the 2002 CEQA documents.
The FSEIR addressed new or significant impacts than were addressed in the two previous
documents. The analysis addressed new or more significant impacts in the areas of
traffic and transportation, biology, soils, cultural resources, noise, air quality and
hazards.
e
em. McCormick asked about the Fallon ranch house, which was built circa 1870 and
was historically significant.
Mr. Haag advised that the Draft EIR recommended that the ranch house be preserved;
however, since publication of the report,. the Applicant had determined that it was
infeasible to preserve the building, so that impact had to be changed to significant and
unavoidable. The Applicant was urged to contact experience persons to study the
feasibility of moving the building.
Mayor Lockhart askedaoout the prehistoric evidence noted in the report.
Mr. Haag advised that he did not know the details; however, mitigation was included in
the documents that, if something was found, the contractors must stop work until a
qualified archeologist could devise a preservation plan.
Mr. Baker continued with the General Plan and Specific Plan Amendments portion of the
Staff Report, as well as the Stage 1 Development Plan. The need for public art had been
addressed and an errata sheet showing suggested modifications to two of the proposed

ordinances had been distributed to the Council and COples made available to the_
members of the public. ..
Linda Gates, Landscape Architect for the Applicant, reviewed the components of the Stage
1 Design Guidelines as presented in the Staff Report and thanked Staff for their
invaluable input into the document. The Applicant had settled on a Mediterranean
agrarian theme to keep the area simple and classic.
Planning Consultant Mike Porto reviewed the Stage 1 Development Standards, the Stage
2 Planning Development, and Stage 2 Architectural Standards portion of the Staff Report.
Ms. Gates reviewed the Stage 2 Design Guidelines as presented in the Staff Report.
Mr. Baker reviewed the Braddock & Logan Development Agreement, as well as the
Vesting Tentative Map, as presented in the Staff Report. A unique aspect of this
Development Agreement was the Community Benefit Payment in which the Developer
agreed to pay $2.5 million. This would be paid on a per-unit basis prior to issuing
building permits for each unit. The Developer also agreed to pay an additional $1
million in connection with the proposal to satisfy its affordable housing obligation, if the
affordable housing agreement were approved by the Council at a later date.
Mr. Baker reviewed the Vesting Tentative Map, which had been previously approved by ..
the Planning Commission. Since the closure of the appeal period, residents of the Piper ..
Glen Terrace community had raised concerns regarding the proximity of the upper loop
road and its proximity to their property lines. The Vesting Tentative Map included a 26-
foot landscape setback from the rear property line to the face of curb; however, the
homeowners had requested a 75-foot buffer. The residents of that neighborhood had
submitted a letter to the Council expressing their concern. If granted, this realignment
would shift the road an additional 50 feet onto the Jordan property. A letter from
Braddock and Logan had also been submitted to the Council expressing their willingness
to work with the City to shift the road and increase the landscape buffer. Copies of these
letters were made available to the public and would be incorporated into the official
record. Should the Council decide that an additional landscape buffer be provided, Staff
could be directed to modify the alignment of the road through the Final Map process.
Jeff Lawrence, Braddock & Logan, advised that this was a long term project and
commended Staff for an excellent job of working with the Applicants. Time was spent
studying the feasibility of relocating the historic home, and it was determined to be
unrelocatable as it did not sit on a foundation and had no structural. integrity in the

walls. Other options included placing historical artifacts associated with the home in the
local historical museum for preservation. A photo record of the site could also be
considered. He invited the City to visit the site and determine what items might be
recorded and preserved.
e
Milton Righetti, Property Owner, advised that he had been part of this process for many
years and commended Staff for their work associated with the project. He believed this
was a good project, as is, and encouraged the Council to approve it as-is.
Scott Ose, Dublin resident, reviewed the letter that he and his neighbors on Piper Glen
Terrace had previously submitted to the Council in which they expressed concern
regarding the proposed upper loop road and its proximity to their neighborhood. He
commended Braddock & Logan and Greenbriar for listening to them and coming up with
a compromise, in which the Developer offered to push the road back farther to the east,
encroaching into the Greenbriar properties by another 25 feet. This would effectively
double the footage they would have been presented with before the issue was raised. The
majority of those neighbors whom he had been able to contact that day were in
agreement with the compromise. He also understood the plan was to lower the grade of
the road by four feet from the level of their backyards. The Developers had also indicated
that extra trees and landscaping would also be installed in the. buffer zone to create a
sound barrier. If the Developers were willing to substantiate his understanding of their
offer, he and his neighbors would willingly accept the approximate 51 feet that was
being offered. He also asked that the speed limit on that street be kept to 25 miles per
hour, as it had a downhill grade. One of the maps showed 6 lanes where the upper loop
road connected with Fallon Road, and the City Engineer had mentioned that it might be
possible to reduce that road to 4 lanes. He requested that street lighting be kept at low-
wattage interior community lighting. He requested that the Council adopt these
concerns into the approval of these plans as conditions.
Bill Schaub, Planning Commission Chair, advised that the Planning Commission was
concerned about the amount of industrial land use within the proposed project, and
further concerned about the potential loss of industrial space if the industrial park land
use was combined with the campus office land use. It would result in the loss of valuable
small business opportunities.
John Mueterra, Pleasanton resident, urged the Council to curb its enthusiasm for
development, expressing concern about too much development, especially near the
airport, as well as water and traffic issues.

Patrick Constanza, Jr., representing Greenbriar Homes, Standard Pacific Homes and the _
Jordan Trustees, advised that, after studying the upper loop road issue, they were willing _
to move the right-of-way over, which currently had 26 feet of landscaping to get an
additional buffer of landscaping. This was with the understanding that Braddock and
Logan would put in the road as originally planned in the right-of-way. He submitted a
diagram showing the proposal and asked that it be entered into the record. They were
happy to be able to find an acceptable compromise with the neighbors.
Mr. Lawrence advised that, based on the Piper Glen Terrace residents' request, Braddock
& Logan was committed to the revised designs. He thanked the Jordan Trust, Greenbriar
and Standard Pacific for making the commitment, too, in getting the adjustment made to
accommodate the neighbors. They would be happy to install the additional landscaping
and the reduction of the street elevation down to approximately 4 feet. Everyone's efforts
in resolving this issue was appreciated.
Mayor Lockhart closed the public hearing, and reserved the right to bring Applicants
back for further questions, if necessary.
Mayor Lockhart commended Mr. Ose, the Piper Glen Terrace neighbors and the
Developers for the way they approached the issue with reasonable communications and
expectations. It was very productive, and all involved should be commended.
Mayor Lockhart expressed concern about the industrial area issue raised by Planning e
Commissioner Schaub. This Council had been consistent about not only finding a place
for new light industrial in the community, but to also make space for existing uses that
needed to move into other parts of town. Uses allowed near the Airport Protection Plan
area should be carefully considered for compatibility. Mr. Ose's traffic and lighting
concerns would be addressed later in the process.
Cm. Zika agreed with concerns regarding the loss of Light Industrial and recommended
that the Campus Office designation be pulled away from those properties and made Light
Industrial park. The Developers could come back later to try to justify the need for
Campus Office.
Cm. Hildenbrand agreed that the industrial area should be preserved, and stated that
public art should also be incorporated into the project.
Cm. McCormick expressed interest in the comment regarding the possibility of changing
a roadway from six to four lanes.

.
City Engineer Mark Lander reviewed the road configurations, which were based on
preliminary numbers, and advised that it now appeared feasible to reduce it back down
from six to four lanes. He would not, however, commit to that right now as further study
needed to be done.
.
Cm. McCormick recommended that the language on the errata sheet regarding public art
be incorporated into the Ordinances. The Developer's suggestion to record the historic
farm house and artifacts on the property for the Dublin Historical Preservation
Association would be a great gift to Dublin. With all additions stated, she would be
willing to support the project.
Vm. Oravetz concurred with all stated by the other Councilmembers, and stated that he
would like to make a motion, but would defer to the City Attorney for possible motion
language.
City Attorney Silver stated that there seemed to be a consensus with the Council and
offered suggestions on where the Council might want to modify the recommendation
shown in the Staff Report. The action to adopt the Resolution certifying the SEIR could
remain unchanged. It appeared that there was a majority of the Council that would like
to see the Industrial/Campus Office designation changed to Industrial. Alternative #5 in
the SEIR showed 77 acres along the freeway as Industrial as opposed to
Industrial/ Campus Office. If the Council desired, it could adopt the Resolution
approving the General Plan and Specific Plan Amendments adopting the project as
described in the SEIR with the Industrial alternative if the Council wanted all 77 acres or
less to be Industrial.
The Council discussed the map of Proposed Fallon Village Proposed General Plan Land
Uses and concurred that the 61 + acres of Industrial Park/Campus Office should change
to Industrial Park only. The General Commercial/Campus Office designation would
remain unchanged.
The Council and Staff discussed the movement and reduction of the height of the road,
which could be dealt with through a motion using language suggested by the City
Attorney. The Vesting Tentative Map, which showed the location of the road, had been
previously approved by the Planning Commission. The letter from Braddock and Logan
indicated that they were not opposed to submitting a Final Map that showed the road in
the easterly location, provided that certain other things occurred. The motion that the
Council might adopt would be to request Braddock and Logan to make that change to the

Final Map when they submit it. The errata sheet with suggested language regarding.
public art to the Stage 1 PD Ordinance and Stage 2 PD could be added to each respective
Ordinance for introduction, but would have to be referred back to the Planning
Commission for approval. The Planning Commission would have the opportunity to
consider and make a recommendation on the issue prior to the second reading of the
Ordinances at the next Council meeting on December 20th.
City Attorney Silver advised that she would need to review with Staff whether language
would need to be included regarding the historical artifacts or whether it was already
included. She asked the Council for time to prepare possible motion language based on
Council direction.

. Mayor Lockhart closed the public hearing.
Cm. Hildenbrand expressed concern about the short time available to actually have a
function if the rental hours were only from 5:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m., and suggested
allowing rentals until midnight, at least until the Shannon Center re~ opened.
Vm. Oravetz concurred and asked how late functions at Shannon Center were allowed.
Mr. McCreary advised midnight.
The Council discussed the need for extended hours and agreed that people should be
sensitive to the senior housing neighbors as they arrived and departed.
Mr. McCreary suggested closing the outdoor patio space next to the senior housing after
a certain time and to allow the use of only the front patio space after that time.
Council concurred with the suggestion, and agreed that the back patio should be closed
at 10:00 p.m.
The Council discussed the proposed fees and agreed that they were fair.
