No. 7138:
1. The Vesting Tentative Map is consistent with the intent of applicable subdivision regulations and
related ordinances. Notwithstanding the Commission's approval of these amendments, the property owner shall
have the vested right to develop Dublin Ranch Area A-3 in accordance with the applicable ordinances, policies, and
standards which were in effect at the date the City determined that the application for Vesting Tentative Map No.

City's General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan policies as they apply to the subject property in that it is a
subdivision for implementation of a residential project in an area designated for Single Family Residential
development and Open Space.
3. The Vesting Tentative Map is consistent with the Planned Development Zoning for this project and
is, therefore, consistent with the City of Dublin Zoning Ordinance.
4. The project site is located adjacent to major roads on relatively flat topography and is, therefore,
physically suitable for the type and density of development.
5. With the incorporation of mitigation measures from the previous EIR, action programs and policies

subdivision will not cause environmental damage or substantially injure fish or wildlife or their habitat or cause
public health concerns.

access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. The City Engineer has reviewed the map and
title report and has not found any conflicting easements of this nature.
7. Required fire and water service will be provided to the subdivision pursuant to the requirements of
water and sewer providers, if standards and conditions are met and fees paid. Sewer service for this subdivision
shall be provided pursuant to an agreement between the applicant/developer and DSRSD. School capacity for the
