Although the Planmng CommiSSIOn had authority to review the draft Ordmance approving the planned Development Rezone and make recommendatIons to the City Council, as well as adopt a ResolutIon approvmg the Site Development Review, the Applicant was inadvertently unable to attend the Planmng Commission's Public Hearing. The Planning Commission raised a number of concerns; however, felt It was problematIc to discuss these Issues without the Applicant being present. The Apphcant's representatIve requested that the Planmng CommiSSIOn forward the project to the Council rather than continue the project to a future Planning Commission meetIng. The CommiSSIOn agreed that It would state ItS concerns with the project for the record and refer hearmgJunsdictIon to the CIty Council. Mayor Lockhart stated that it was unusual for the Applicant to bypass the Planning CommISSion process, and indicated that It was very important that the Planning Commission hear Issues and discuss them before they were presented to the Council. The Planning CommIsSIOn's comments should be heard in tomght's dIsCUSSion because they worked very hard and did their homework, and had vahd comments. The Council concurred. Planmng Commission Chair Bill Schaub expressed concern about the proposed store front, as well as the proposed green screen tower element. The green screen was too tall, and plants do not grow well on them. The spltt cmderblock was not appropnate for the area, and there were several alternatives. The plans for the proposed plaza were unclear and needed more explanation. Planning Commission Chair Schaub expressed concern regarding archItecture and consistency With the Downtown Core Specific Plan Design Guidelines, and showed slides with examples of building architecture and plaza elements which he felt were more appropnate for thiS locatIon. Planning CommIssIOner Morgan King adVIsed that many of the proposed elements were not m accordance with the Downtown SpeCific Plan and expressed his concern With the proposed size and placement of the Village Green plaza, the parking SituatIon, the lack of pedestnan opportumty, the dIrectIon of the eXisting store fronts, and the medlocnty of the proposed buildmg deSIgn and architecture. The inflexibility of the property owner's CC&R's was a concern, as well. In his opimon, the Village Green plaza plan needed to be more clearly defined, and a design standard implemented. A lot of work went mto the Downtown SpeCific Plan, and It should be considered when thiS project was contemplated. DUBLIN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 25 REGULAR MEETING May 16,2006 PAGE 167 ~ Plannmg CommiSSIOner Robert Fasulkey agreed that the Planning Commission put a lot of effort into the craftIng of the SpeCific Plan, and the Applicant might not fully understand what the Specific Plan was requestmg and the VISIOn of the area. He urged the Council to vote against this project tOl1lght unless there was a lot of flexibihty to come before them. Plannmg Commission Doreen Wehrenberg expressed the same concerns. Overall, It was a nice project, but extra design help was needed. Mayor Lockhart thanked the Plannmg Commission for expressIng Its concerns before the Council. It was unfortunate that the Commission was not allowed to do ItS Job. She asked the Applicant to address several Items of concern to the Plannmg Commission, mcluding: flat roof vs. gables, green tower, stacked rock vs. cinder block, the plaza area, and outdoor dil1lng space. Mayor Lockhart asked Staff If, wIth other development happel1lng m the area, there were other opportul1ltIes for the green space or a plaza area. Could thiS development meet ItS responsibihty and still look for other plaza space m that vlclmty? She was not convmced that the Target parking lot would be the appropriate place for a plaza. Commumty Development Director Jeri Ram advised that there were changes occurring along Amador Plaza Road, and it was possible, as part of the new Downtown Plan being worked on, that additIonal area for plazas or a Dubhn green could be IdentIfied. Ahcla Dlaz, Vice President of Mayfield Gentry Realty AdVisors, extended a formal apolosy to the Planl1lng Commission and explamed that the prmclpal of the company did have all intention to attend the Planmng CommISSion meeting; however, he was delayed due to traffic. Every effort had been made to meet the City's expectations of the project. Unfortunately, there was very httle flexibility in the CC&R's, which were negotiated between several property owners. There have been problems with green screens and watering of vegetatIon includmg trees in the overall property area, which would be addressed by enlarged budgets and capital improvements m the landscaping plans. From the begmning, the Applicant had taken a very collaborative approach with Staff regarding the design of the building. The Applicant was wilhng to work with Staff regarding the issue of split cmderblock vs. stacked rock, and looking at additional architectural mterest with respect to the faSCia of the buildmg. There would be concern about the degree of further footprint articulation that maybe requested and its impact on the mtenor footprints. The plaza area was mtended to be a combmatIon of restaurant space and pubhc access. l>llHLlN ern COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 25 REGULAR MEETING May 16,2006 PAGE 168 ~ Mr. Leoni, Project Architect, advised that the proposed flat roof was a response to the surrounding facilities and to provide unity to the rest of the shoppmg center. Landscaping was a very important element, and the green screen proVided a signature element to the facility. The cmderblock was included to provide articulatIon to the buildll1g form, but could be easily changed to another matenal. There was an effort design the building to face every direction. The Council, Staff and the ApplIcant entered ll1to a discussIOn regarding the challenges such as landscaping, the direction of the store fronts, softemng the store fronts, possibly adding a water element, and defining the plaza area. Ms. Diaz advised that fiscally they could not start from scratch on the project, but they would be wi1lll1g to work With Staff to address the Council's concerns. Mayor Lockhart closed the public hearing. Mr. Baker ll1dlCated that the Councll could continue the item to the next Council meetIng m order to address the Council's concerns, or include conditions in the Site Development Review to address their concerns. The Council dIscussed the dIfferent alternatIves and agreed to contll1ue this Item the next Council meetmg and directed Staff to address the followmg Issues m the Staff Report: 1) the store fronts should have a softer appearance; 2) use stacked rock instead of cinderblock; 3) mclude an art fountall1 or water element ll1 lIeu of the green screen tower; 4) consider any alternatives to make plan less boxy without interfering with net square footage; 5) and prOVide different hetghts m roof elements Without the tower element on the building. Mr. Baker asked If the Council would like the fountall1 element, which would tYPIcally be mcluded ll1 part of the destgrl review and an element of the project, to be ll1c1uded in the design of the plaza that was brought back before the Council at the June 6th meeting. City Manager Ambrose adVIsed that, If the art was going to be part of the water feature, the amount would need to be negotiated. In order not to hold up the project, the water element deSIgn could be pulled out of the Planned Development and included it in the Site Development Review. The Planned Development could be heard on June 6'\ and the Site Development Review could be heard at the June 13th Adjourned Regular Meeting, along With the second readll1g of the PD Ordmance.
