The Project area contains approximately 238.8 acres of land located on the east and west sides of Tassajara Road just south of the Alameda/ Contra Costa County line in the Eastern Dublin area. DSEIR circulation Under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and implementing CEQA Guidelines, after completion of the Draft SEIR, lead agencies are required to consult with and obtain comments from public agencies and organizations having jurisdiction by law over elements of the Project and to provide the general public with an opportunity to comment on the DSEIR. Lead agencies are also required to respond to substantive comments on environmental issues raised during the SEIR review period. As the lead agency for this Project, the City of Dublin held a public review period between October 30, 2006 and December 13, 2006. This Comments and Responses document augments the DSEIR and, together with the DSEIR, comprise the Final Supplemental EIR (FSEIR) for this Project. This document contains all public comments received during the 45-day public review process regarding the DSEIR and responses to those comments. Included within the document is an annotated copy of each comment letter, identifying specific comments, followed by a response to that comment. The FSEIR also contains clarifications and minor corrections to information presented in the DSEIR, including the applicant's request for approval of Alternative 4 rather than the original Project. In the course of preparing the responses to comments, the City generated new information as well as clarifications and modifications to the DSEIR. The City has carefully reviewed the responses in this document, especially any new information or clarifications and modifications to the DSEIR text, against the recirculation standards of CEQA Guidelines section 15088.5. None of the new information or clarifications / modifications in this document constitutes significant new information as defined in the Guidelines, such as new or substantially more severe significant impacts or different feasible alternatives or mitigations, therefore the City has determined that no recirculation is required. Project description Several changes have been made to the underlying Project description and these are summarized below. DSEIR Project. The DSEIRincluded an analysis of 195 single-family dwellings, 14 attached "duet" dwellings, a 1.1-acre neighborhood square and open spaces on a 226-acre portion of the Moller Ranch located east of Tassajara Road along with construction of a loop access road and utility extensions to serve the proposed development. The Project also included annexation of the Moller Ranch property and the Tipper property located on the west side of Tassajara Road to the City of Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 2 March 2007 I I I I I I l I I I I I I I I I I I I Dublin and the Dublin San Ramon Services District. The total Project area is 238.8 acres of land. No development is proposed on the Tipper property as part of the proposed Project. Proposed land uses analyzed in the DSEIR is summarized in Table 3.1 on page 15 of the DSEIR. Requested land use entitlements included amendments to the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan to include the 226-acre portion of the Moller Ranch property into the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, prezoning, a Stage 1 Development Plan, a pre- annexation agreement and annexation of the Project area to the City of Dublin and Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD). If the annexation to the City of Dublin is completed, an existing Williamson Act Land Conservation Agreement on the Moller Ranch would be considered for cancellation by the City of Dublin. DSEIR Alternative 4. Included in the DSEIR is Alternative 4, which is described on page 150 of the DSEIR as the Medium Density Attached and Detached Housing Development Alternative. Alternative 4 analyzed the development of up to 326 attached dwellings with dwellings ranging in size between 2,200 to 2,450 square feet each and would all be multi-story. The development envelope would be approximately the same under Alternative 4 as included in the proposed Project and would be served by a looped access road from Tassajara Road. The same land use entitlements would be required to implement Alternative 4 as the proposed Project with the addition of an amendment to the Dublin General Plan to allow attached housing types. The Tipper property located west of Tassajara Road is also included in Alternative 4 for annexation to the City and DSRSD but no development is proposed for the Tipper property. December 2006 Stage 1 Development Plan. The Project applicant submitted a Stage 1 Development Plan to the City of Dublin in September, 2006 that included 298 dwellings. This application was superceded by a revised Stage 1 Development Plan submitted to the City On December 26, 2006. The revised Stage 1 Project includes construction of 298 Medium Density Residential dwellings, both attached and detached housing types, on approximately 49 acres, a 1.1-acre neighborhood square, a 32.6-acre open space/ stream corridor area, 7.2 acres of interior collector roads, a right-of-way reservation of 3.8 acres for the widening of Tassajara Road along the Moller Ranch Project frontage. The latest Stage 1 Development Plan application also includes 132.7 acres of land on the Moller Ranch site that are designated Rural Residential that would be preserved as a permanent non-buildable easement area. The revised Stage 1 Development Plan requires the same land use entitlements as the proposed Project with the addition of an amendment to the Dublin General Plan to allow attached housing types. However, under the revised Stage 1 Development Plan proposal and following completion of annexation of the Project area to the City of Dublin, the applicant would request cancellation and rescission of approximately 70 acres of land on the Project site covered by the Williamson Act Agreement. The DSEIR only discussed Williamson Act cancellation. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 3 March 2007 J I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Table 3.1.

(Zone 7, Salt Balance .^~lflUal Report, June 20, 2001.) The mitigation for salt loading. i.e. the demineralization facility (Mocho Groundwater Demineralization Plant) is funded partly from water connection fees and partly from water rate revenues. All development within the Project area will pay for mitigation of increased salt loading impacts through the payment of their water and sewer hook up fees and water rates.

This complies with Eastern Dublin EIR MM 3.5. / 23.0, which required recycled water projects to be coordinated with any salt mitigation requirements of Zone 7. Salt loading to the :Main Basin from this Project development is considcred by Zone 7 t{) be "minim:11." This impact is more of a regional salt v:atcr managcmcnt problem, because it reQults from the accumulation of all eJQsting and proposed irrig:1tion system improTy'ements of the entire region. The salt loading impact from this Project is part of a regional salt management issue. which results from salt accumulation from all the existing and proposed irri gation systems in the entire region. As noted in the Environmental Setting section above, Zone 7 is implementing a regional demineralization program of which individual developments within the Project area would participate through payment of fees to Zone 7. Therefore, there would be no supplemental impacts with regard to Project contribution to local or regional salt loading. 13) Page 104,Mitigation Measure SM-BI0-4c is modified to read as follows: "The applicants shall retain the services of a qualified biologist to develop a program to capture and relocate tiger salamanders from the Project site prior to the initiation of construction.

The California Highway Patrol is the primary agency that provides traffic Jaw enforcement, safety and traffic management on 1-580, within Alameda County. Dublin Area is responsible for the aforementioned functions and will be affected by the implementation of this project 1.1 This project is expected to bring an additional 209 dwellings. With each home having an average of two vehicles, and each vehicle making numerous triPs per day, thiS increase could potentially add approximately 20-30,000 vehicle trips monthly on 1-580 and the supPorting city and county roadways. This significant increase would impact Dublin Area's. abilitY to proactivelyreduce collisions and encourage voluntaIy compliance with Vehicle Code provisions as we would have greater congestion and more service related calls to handle. Therefore, this project would more than likely increase the number of traffic collisions (fatal, injury and property-damage only) along with. 1he potential driving under the influence incidents.

As you may be aware, the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (OTSC) oversees the cleanup of sites where hazardous substances have been released pursuant to the California Health and Safety Code, DMsion 20, Chapter 6.8. The Supplemental DEIR indicates that a number of hazardous materials were identifted 1.2.1 in the Project area including but not limited to abandoned automobiles, oils, pesticides, PCBs, lead-based paint and asbestos. DrSC recommends that soil and groundwater sampling be conducted prior to development to ensure that no contamination exists above acceptable levels. If hazardous substances have been released at other properties, they will need to be addressed as part of this project. The remediation aCtivities would then need to be addressed in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) compliance docum.ent. For example, if the remediation actMties include the need for soil excavation. the CEOA document should include: (1) an assessment of air impacts and health impacts associated with the excavation activities; (2) identification of any applicable local standards which may be exceeded by the excavation activities, including dust levels and noise; (3) transportation impacts from the removal or remedial activities; and (4) risk of upset should be there an accident at the Site. DTSC can assist your agency in overseeing characterization and cleanup activities through our Voluntary Cleanup Program. A fact sheet desCribing this program is enclosed. We are aware that projects such as this one are typically on a compressed schedule, and in an effort to use the available review time efficiently. we request that DTSC be included in any meetings where issues relevant to our statutory authority are discussed. .

Some of the highlights of this program are: . Project Proponents do not admit to legal liability for remediation of a site by entering into an agreement with DTSC. . The cleanup process is consistent with the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Contingency Plan (the "National Contingency Plan", NCP) and Chapter 6.8 of the Health and Safety Code. . Provides direct access to qualified DTSe staff including, but not limited to, geologists. engineers. scientists, and toxicologists. . DTSC provides coordination with other State, federal, or local agencies who may have input on certain aspects of a project. . Services to be provided by DTSC and a cost estimate for this work are set forth in an agreement. . The Project Proponent or DTSC may terminate the agreement for any rea~on by giving 30-day advance written notice to the other party. . Professional services provided include document review, oversight of site characterization, risk Bssessment, evaluation of feasible cleanup alterna- tives, and implementation of site remediation, and certification upon com- pletion. Public participation activities are tailored to the project. Project Proponents may include, but are not limited to owners of property with known or suspected hazardous substance contamination, other State or local agencies, real estate developers or others involved with proposed changes in land use or ownership. Most properties are eligible. The main exclusions are if the site is listed as a Federal or State Superfund site, is a military facility, is under current DTSC enforcement, or if it falls outside of DTSC's jurisdiction. Sites under the cur- rent oversight of other State or local regulatory agencies may enter the pro- gram for specific services only with the overseeing agency's consent. @ I I" I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 1;!/VlS/;!UUt) I(:~~ t~^ ~;!O lS~~ bb~~ 1,J.'

The comments below are based on the Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (DSEIR) for the proposed Casamira Valley/Moller Ranch Project. As lead agency, the City of Dublin is responsible for all project mitigation, including improvements to state highways. The project's fair share contribution, financing, scheduling, implementation responsibilities and lead agency monitoring should be fully discussed for all proposed mitigation measures. Any required roadway improvements should be completed prior to certificate of occupancy. While an encroachment permit is only required when the project involves work in the State Right of Way (ROW), the Department will not issue an encroachment permit until our concerns are adequately addressed. Therefore, we strongly recommend that the lead agency ensure resolution of the Department's concerns prior to submittal of an encroachment permit application. Further comments will be provided during the encroachment permit process; see the end of this letter for more information regarding encroachment permits. 1.3.1 F orecastin1!

The Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD) has reviewed the DRAFf SEIR and has the following comment. In regards to Section 4.4 (Supplemental Impacts and Mitigation Measures pg. 66): The western portion of 2.1.1 the project, west of Tassajara Road, is not currently within the DSRSD service area. However, the proposed project is within the current DSRSD Sphere of Influence and is included in the current DSRSD Urban Water Management Plan and Wastewater Collection System Master Plan Update.

Moller Ranch/Casamira Valley - Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Thank you for the opportunity to review the aforementioned document. I have several comments as follows. Page 15. Table 3.1 For the Moller Ranch Property in the column on Land Use, you refer to Neighborhood Parks. Based on the acres included (1.5 acres) this should be categorized as a Neighborhood Square per the standards in the Parks & Recreation Master Plan. 2.2.1 Page 140. Paragraph 3 The Parks and Recreation Master Plan was updated again in May 2006. Please replace February 2004 in 2.2.2 the first sentence with May 2006. Page 140. Paragraph 4 The Master Plan no longer shows four neighborhood parks and a portion of a Community Park within 2.2.3 the Casamira Valley Project area. The 2006 Update shows two neighborhood parks and one neighborhood square on the Dublin Ranch WestlWallis Ranch project site; there is no longer a community park in the project area. Page 140. Paragraph 5 Phase ill of Emerald Glen Park was completed in spring 2006; the park now encompasses 2.2.4 approximately 42 acres. Two additional phases are anticipated for the future. Page 141. Paragraph 3 In this paragraph you use the term "local parkland". What does this refer to? You also indicate that this 2.2.5 would be used as a neighborhood park. As noted above, given the acreage, it should be referred to as a neighborhood square. Page 141. Paragraph 4 Per the City's parkland standard of 5 acres per 1,000 residents, 1.5 acres per 1,000 is for neighborhood 2.2.6 park/square and 3.5 acres per 1,000 is for community park. Based on this, the 1.5 acre neighborhood "square" proposed for the project actually exceeds the neighborhood park requirement of 1 acre that would be generated by this project. il il I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I ( Page 142. Paragraph l/Paragraph 2 This paragraph which begins on the preceding page discusses how the Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2.2.7 does not indicate any future City park facilities on the Moller Ranch property and assumes that future residents of the Moller Ranch would use parks constructed as part of the Dublin Ranch West development project. It should be noted, however, that at the October 5, 2004 Study Session of the City Council where the Dublin Ranch West (Wallis Ranch) project was discussed, the Council agreed to accept Park Option 4 which identified 7.66 acres of neighborhood parkland on the Dublin Ranch West project and 1.04 acres on either the Mission Peak or Moller Ranch projects. (The Dublin Ranch West project was originally required to provide 8.7 acres of neighborhood parkland.) Consequently the proposed 1.S-acre park facility within the Moller Ranch project is not actually an additional recreational amenity within the proposed project but makes up for the reduction is park acreage on the Dublin Ranch:West project.

Alameda Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo), as Responsible Agency, needs to ensure that potential impacts relating to the proposed reorganization are evaluated to enable an informed decision by the Commission. To that end, we offer the following comments: In July 2005, LAFCo submitted a response to the Notice of Preparation and Initial Study (IS) prepared for this project. Some of those responses have not been sufficiently evaluated or need to modified as follows: . Thank you for including a prezone exhibit. However, the exhibit does not appear to reflect recent 2.5.1 LAFCo annexation actions which amended the City's boundary. Please provide updated exhibits. . (IS, pA et al) - The project site includes land under Williamson Act jurisdiction until 2014. The 2.5.2 IS & DEIR (pp. 20, 34, 35 et al) contain conflicting and/or partial evaluations of the timing and status of Williamson Act cancellations and related effects on agricultural land. In one location, incorrect citations of the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg (CKH) Act are given. From LAFCo's perspective, as implementing agency for projects processed pursuant to the CKH Act, Government Code (GC) Section 56865 (d) (1) does not apply, as a cancellation has not been approved by the city. In some locations, the DEIR indicates the City is not currently intending to approve a cancellation. In other locations, however, it states that a cancellation application has been received and will be acted upon. These issues need to be clarified. LAFCo also needs to know the estimated timeline for cancellation actions, and site development, as applicable. . LAFCo's previous comment on page 7 of the IS does not appear to be addressed. Annexation is 2.5.3 required before subdivision maps are approved. I I I I I I I' I I I I I I I I I I I I Jerry Haag, consultant December 7, 2006 Page 2 General comments on the DEIR are provided as follows: . The 13-year-old EIR is dated and cannot be used effectively for evaluation of potential 2~5.4 agricultural impacts, especially cumulative and growth-inducing impacts due to substantial changes in land use throughout the project vicinity, changes in laws, and State directed emphasis on avoidance of premature conversion of farmland to urban uses. . Please provide a title for the Appendices in the Table of Contents. 2.5.5 . Is this application premature considering that a substantial amount of undeveloped land has been 2.5.6 recently added to the City through two recent annexations? LAFCo's policies discourage premature conversion of prime agricultural, and state that LAFCo should discourage the inclusion of land not expected to be developed within five years of LAFCo action in urban servIces areas. . LAFCo' s agricultural, service and annexation policies are not reviewed, considered or included 2.5.7 in any section of the OEIR. The EIR needs to evaluate potential impacts stemming from the proposed project's inconsistency with LAFCo policies, especially timing of conversion of agricultural land. . P. 32 - The site does not appear to meet the criteria for an infill site as defined in GC Section 2.5.8 21061.3. . Please provide more information on the timing of services: when needed and to what locations of 2.5.9 the site. Are any services dependent on build out of the two most recently annexed areas to the south and west? Does approval of this project prior to build out of those recently annexed areas cause leapfrog development, inefficient or more expensive services, and what are the potential impacts? . What are the potential short and long term effects on adjacent agricultural lands not proposed for 2.5.10 development? . Is there an SB 610 report? 2.5.11 . Appendix 8.5 states there may be 80 cows on the site, but does not draw conclusions regarding 2.5.12 GC Section 56064 ( c). This issue needs to be disclosed and evaluated in the EIR. . Is there more recent storage data for the Main Basin? Much has happened in terms of water and 2.5.13 land uses since 1966. . How many and what types of trees will actually be removed? The DEIR states that oak trees 2.5.14 could be removed, including heritage oak trees 24" or greater in diameter. Pursuant to SB 1334 & CEQA (21083.4), the level of protection for these oak trees stands to be reduced because of the transfer of land use jurisdiction from the County to the City that will occur because of LAFCo's action. This is a significant adverse environmental impact which needs to be quantified. Additional mitigation may need to be provided to raise protection to existing levels. Protection alternatives listed in SB 1334 include: planting and maintaining an appropriate I I I i I I I i I I I I I I I I I i I Jerry Haag, consultant December 7, 2006 Page 3 number of trees either on-site or in restoration of a former oak woodlands (tree planting is limited to half the mitigation requirement); contributing funds to the Oak Woodlands Conservation Fund for the purpose of purchasing conservation easements; or other mitigation measures developed by the county.

These comments are intended to recommend: . mitigation for loss of important rangeland and its natural resources . Williamson Act Easement Exchange approach for cancellation of William Act contracts . managed, "non-buildable open space" Mitiaation for loss of Qrasslands and its natural resources. While the Moller Ranch project is not located on prime cultivated agricultural soils, the grasslands provide significant and diverse natural resources and agricultural values. The Bay Area Open Space Council states that rangelands are perhaps the largest single habitat area that remains unprotected in the area. The California Rangeland Conservation Coalition, a coalition of public agencies, ranchers and environmental organizations, also acknowledges the significant natural resource values of private rangelands. Recent University of California research indicates that a viable private ranching industry has a very important habitat management relationship to public rangelands. The historical rangelands in Eastern Alameda produce high quality and desirable forage for the grazing industry of California. Alameda County's General Plan and LAFCo policies support the sustainability and values of agriculture. Therefore - The loss of 238 acres of valuable private rangeland should be mitigated with permanent protection of private rangeland in Alameda County using 2.6.1 3585 Greenville Rd, Suite 2 (925) 371-0154 Phone Livermore, CA 94550 (925) 371-0155 Fax www.acrcd.org "The Alameda County Resource Conservation District provides leadership in the County and region about natural resources conservation and agricultural issues through education, outreach, resource services, partnerships and funding." I I I I I I I I I ,I I I I I I I I - I conservation easements and by consideration of other innovative approaches in the Tri- Valley that support the working landscape. This is achievable, since there are numerous private landowners in Eastern Alameda County with interest in easement protection for their ranches that also provide natural resources diversity. Also, there is local capacity to assist with easements by local resources and easement entities. Williamson Act contract cancellation. The Williamson Act Exchange Program should be 2.6.2 utilized to mitigate for loss of the grasslands. Not only are other ranches available in the county for permanent easement, but the associated natural resources and the ranching industry will benefit from further land protection. In addition, local and regional capacity exists to facilitate the exchange process. Manaaement of non-buildable ooen soace. 173 acres or 72% of the project area is 2.6.3 planned for open space, ringing the development and linking enhanced stream corridors. Those rangeland acres are now managed by grazing, which provides fire fuel and invasive weed management. The RCD encourages continued active grazing management where practicable, and to work with agricultural and natural resource specialists, such as a Certified Rangeland Manager when planning the final development so as to ensure accessibility of agricultural equipment and animals and to provide for adequate fencing and stock water. Recent research has shown that without active grazing or other grassland management tools, the open space values may deteriorate, including the wetlands and open space values.

We have reviewed the report and have the following comments: 1. The annexation related to this project should be reviewed. The segment of Tassajara 2.7.1 Road between the existing city limit and the boundary of this project area should be included in the annexation. The development both to the south and the north along Tassajara Road would leave only a short segment between abutting City development. 2. Impact TRA-2 - Widening of Tassajara Road should continue through the presently 2.7.2 unincorporated segment of roadway. Roadway widening and improvements along Tassajara Road have been identified in this report. Roadway improvements consistent with these development generated improvements are necessary to provide consistent lanes, lane widths, shoulder, drainage, lighting and roadside improvements. 3.

Our comments are as follows: 1. On page 72, under Environmental Setting, the first sentence states that the Project area is located 2.8.1 within the Arroyo Las Positas watershed. The Project may be within the Tassajara Creek watershed as opposed to the Arroyo Las Positas watershed. Please verify. 2. On page 74, under Regulatory Framework, it states that the Dublin Ranch Stonn Drainage Master 2.8.2 Plan was prepared for each development project in Eastern Dublin planning area. Zone 7 requests a copy of this storm drainage master plan and any other existing hydrology and/or hydraulic studies for this proposed project for review to determine impacts on Zone 7's regional flood control system. We would like to understand how the drainage solution will be implemented-to pr-otect all downstream properties from new drainage impacts (Program 9U). Under Impacts and Mitigation Measures on the same page, natural channel improvements wherever possible are proposed. Zone 7 requests that the City and/or the project proponent consult with Zone 7 on any proposed channel improvements. Recent findings in the development of Zone 7's Stream Management Master Plan (SMMP) indicate the need for consideration and analysis of the impacts of development to the regional flood control system and the identification of appropriate mitigations. Therefore, during the interim period, before full implementation of the regional water storage plan contemplated by the SMMP, the City and/or the project proponent should consult with Zone 7 prior to undertaking the impact and mitigation analysis. Future improvements to the flood control system are planned, thus, it is imperative that the City and/or the project proponent provide a teclmical analysis to identify any impacts to the regional flood control system that may occur downstream of proposed project in the interim period. 3. The proposed project is subject to Zone 7's Special Drainage Area (SDA) 7-1 Drainage Fees for the 2.8.3 creation of new impervious areas per the ACFC& WCD Ordinance 0-2002-24. The project proponent will need to complete a Zone 7 SDA 7-1 Impervious Surfaces Worksheet, submit an improvement plan identifying and quantifying all new proposed impervious areas, and submit a payment for the proposed impervious surfaces.

On page 78, under Salt Loading, 2nd paragraph, beginning with the 3rd sentence, please modify the remaining text in the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs to the following: 2.8.4 ''The plan includes demineralizing groundwater from existing Zone 7 wells (Mocho Wells 1, 2, 3 and 4). The mitigation for salt loading, i.e., the demineralization facility (Mocho Groundwater Demineralization Plant) is funded partly from water connection fees and partly from water rate revenues. All development within the Project area will pay for mitigation of increased salt loading impacts through the payment of their water and sewer hook up fees and water rates. This complies with Eastern Dublin ElR 3.5/23.0, which required recycled water projects to be coordinated with any salt mitigation requirements of Zone 7. The salt loading impact from the Project is part of a regional salt management issue, which results from the salt accumulation from all the existing and proposed irrigation systems in the entire region. As noted in the Environmental Setting section above, Zone 7 is implementing a regional demineralization program of which individual developments within the Project area would participate through payment of fees to zone 7. Therefore, there would be no supplemental impacts with regard to the Project's contribution to regional salt loading." 5. If wells are to be used or destroyed, a Zone 7 well drilling permit and compliance with the permit conditions are required to ensure "wellhead protection." 2.8.5 6. All abandoned septic systems should be completely removed to eliminate them as a potential conduit for the transport of surface contamination, should it occur. 2.8.6 In addition, Zone 7 requests that we be able to review all plans and specifications or any additional information and/or studies pertaining to proposed development. Please submit such additional information to me at the address shown above. 2.8.7 We appreciate the opportunity to comment on this document.

The Phase I assessment identified a number of areas on the Moller Ranch that could contain hazardous or potentially hazardous materials, including but not limited to buried or abandoned autos, auto parts, used oil and kerosene containers, an above ground storage tank and an existing septic system. Supplemental Mitigation Measures SM HAZ-l and SM-HAZ-2 are found in Section 4.9 of the DSEIR, Hazards and Hazardous Materials. Both Supplemental Mitigation Measures require additional testing prior to development for the potential for asbestos, lead-based paints and potentially contaminated soil and groundwater. The City of Dublin has therefore complied or will comply with the requested action from the commenter through implementation of the identified mitigation measures. In terms of the Voluntary Oeanup Program, the City of Dublin and the Project applicant is aware of this program and may pursue the program if hazardous and contaminated material are identified within the Project area based on additional testing. Letter 1.3: State of California Department of Transportation . Comment 1.3.1: The commenter notes that the City of Dublin, as Lead Agency, is responsible for all Project mitigation, including improvements to state highways. The Project's fair share contribution, financing, scheduling, implementation and monitoring should be discussed for all proposed mitigation measures. Any required roadway improvement should be completed prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. Work within a state right-of-way will require issuance of an encroachment permit by Caltrans. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that the lead agency ensure that the Department concerns are resolved prior to submittal of an encroachment permit. Response: The DSEIR analyzes potential impacts to roadways, including state highways, in Section 4.2. Mitigation Measures are identified and will be imposed on development proposals within the Project area, as applicable. These comments are acknowledged and no further response is necessary. . Comment 1.3.2: The commenter notes Project land use data is not consistent. The DSEIR notes that the Moller Ranch portion of the Project area would contain up to 209 dwellings, while the Tipper Property would contain up to 82 dwellings. However, the final traffic report contained in the Appendix notes that 186 dwellings are proposed on the Moller Ranch site, while Table C2 shows 269 single family dwellings. Response: The number of residences examined in the DSEIR for the Moller Ranch portion of the Project area is 209 dwellings. The traffic analysis report included in the Attachment section of the Final SEIR analyzed 326 attached townhouses under Alternative 4 of the DSEIR. The revised detailed traffic report has been appended to this Final EIR that analyzed 326 attached townhouse dwellings on the Moller Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 13 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Ranch property as noted above. This report is hereby incorporated by reference into the SEIR and updated the traffic report contained in the DSEIR. The commenter is directed to review Section 5.2.4 of the DSEIR (page 150), which includes an analysis of a higher density development Project on the Moller Ranch site. Alternative 4 includes an analysis of 326 dwellings for the Moller site within the Casamira Valley Project area. The DSEIR contains an analysis of intersection Level of Service impacts for Baseline plus Project Alternative conditions (Table 5.1-1) and Roadway Segment ADT with this. Alternative (Table 5.1-2). The DSEIR concludes that this higher density development alternative would not result in significantly changed impacts to local roadways and state freeways or required mitigation measures as the proposed Project analyzed with 195 dwellings. The City of Dublin therefore believes that adequate information regarding trip generation has been provided in the DSEIR and there is no need for additional analysis on this topic. The 82 dwellings identified for the Tipper Property within the Project area are shown as the maximum number of dwellings that would be allowed pursuant to the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, however, there are no pending applications for development of the Tipper property at this time . Comment 1.3.3: It is difficult to find trip generation and distribution information for the proposed Project. A table showing the proposed trip generation would simplify the review process. Response: The traffic analysis report for the proposed project is included in the Appendix of the Final SEIR. Project trip generation is listed in Table 3 of this traffic analysis report, as requested by the commenter. Project trip distribution and assignment are also shown in Figure 6 of the report. . Comment 1.3.4: The commenter notes that Mitigation Measure 2 contained in the DSEIR relating to recommended improvements to the Santa Rita Road/I-580, eastbound ramps, should be completed prior to the commencement of this Project. Response: The commenter's opinion on improvement of the Santa Rita Road/I- 580 EB ramps is noted, however, Table 4.2-3 contained in the DSEIR shows this intersection operating at Level of Service B in the AM peak and C in the PM peak under Baseline Plus Project Conditions. There is therefore no nexus to require Mitigation Measure SM-TRA-lbbe completed prior to commencement of this Project. Table 4.2-4 of the DSEIR (page 50) does indicate that under future cumulative conditions, this proposed Project, in conjunction with all other development projects anticipated in the buildout of the Dublin General Plan and other future projects in surrounding communities, would contribute to an LOS of E in the PM peak hour. The City of Dublin will require the developer of the proposed Project Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 14 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I to pay its pro rata share of costs to offset the Project's contribution to future cumulative conditions. Alternatively, if the City's Eastern Dublin Traffic Impact Fee Program is updated in the future to include the improvement required in the Mitigation Measure, the Project applicant may pay the TIF fee to the City~ . Comment 1.3.5: Any work within a State right-of-way requires an encroachment permit that is issued by this Department. Traffic-related mitigation will be incorporated into construction plans during the encroachment permit process. Response: This comment is noted and encroachment permits will be obtained from Cal trans, as necessary. Letter 2.1: Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD) · Comment 2.1.1: The commenter notes that, regarding Section 4.4 of the DSEIR, the westerly portion of the Project area is not currently within the DSRSD service area, but the project is within the DSRSD sphere of Influence and has been included in the current Urban Water Management Plan and Wastewater Collection System Master Plan update. The determination has been made that DSRSD has sufficient water availability and sewer treatment capacity to serve the proposed Project upon annexation to DRRSD. Construction of pipelines and related appurtenances to serve the Project area will be required. Response: Comment noted. The DSEIR Project Description includes annexation of the western portion of the Project area to DSRSD as a part of the Project Description. The Stage 1 Development Plan for the Casamira Valley portion of the Project area indicates that the Project developers would be responsible for extensions of water and wastewater facilities to serve the proposed Project. Letter 2.2: Diane Lowart, Dublin Parks and Community Services Department . Comment 2.2.1: The commenter notes that Table 3.1 on page 15 of the DSEIR should reflect "Neighborhood Squares" and not "Neighborhood Parks." Response: This comment is noted and included in the Garifications and Modifications section of the DSEIR. . Comment 2.2.2: The commenter states that the Parks and Recreation Master Plan was last updated in May 2006, not February 2004 as indicated on page 140 the DSEIR. Response: In response to this comment, a portion of page 140 of the DSEIR is modified as follows: /I In February 2001 May 2006, the City of Dublin adopted an updated Parks and Recreation Master Plan./I . Comment 2.2.3: The commenter notes that the Master Plan no longer shows four neighborhood parks and a portion of a Community Park within the Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 15 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I il I I Casamira Valley Project area. The 2006 Master Plan currently shows two neighborhood parks and one neighborhood square in the Dublin Ranch West Project area. There is no longer a community park shown in the Project area. Response: The commenter's updated information with regard to the Parks and Recreation Master Plan is noted and is incorporated by reference into the SEIR. . Comment 2.2.4: The commenter notes that Phase III of Emerald Glen Park was completed in spring, 2006 and this park now encompasses approximately 42 acres. Two additional phases are anticipated in the future. Response: The commenter's updated information with regard to Emerald Glen Park and noted and incorporated by reference into the SEIR. . Comment 2.2.5: The commenter asks what the term "local parkland" means on page 141 of the DSEIR. The DSEIR also notes this would be a neighborhood park. Given the acreage of this facility, this should be referred to as a neighborhood square. Response: The applicant's Stage 1 Development Plan for this Project, dated September 1, 2006, identifies a centrall.l-acre neighborhood square as part of their Development Plan. The City may wish to modify the terminology of the Stage 1 Development Plan prior to the approval of this application. . Comment 2.2.6: The commenter notes that under the City's parkland standards of 5.0 acres of parks per 1,000 residents that includes 1.5 acres per 1,000 residents for neighborhood park/ square and 3.5 acres per 1,000 residents for community parks, the amount of parkland included in the proposed Project (1.1 acres) exceeds this City standard of 1.0 acres. Response: This comment is noted and it is also noted that the currently proposed Stage 1 Development Plan proposes 1.1 acres of neighborhood square, not 1.5 acres as shown in the DSEIR. . . Comment 2.2.7: The commenter notes that at an October 5, 2004 Dublin City Council study session where the adjacent Dublin Ranch West Project was discussed, the City Council agreed to accept Option 4 for the Dublin Ranch West Project. This option included 7.66 acres of neighborhood parks on the Dublin Ranch West project and 1.04 acres of parks on either the Mission Peak or Casamira Valley (Moller Ranch) properties. Consequently, the proposed 1.5-acre park facility within the Casamira Valley Project is not actually an additional recreation amenity, but makes up for the reduction of park acreage on the adjacent Dublin Ranch West project. Response: This comment is noted and it is also noted that the currently proposed Stage 1 Development Plan proposes 1.1 acres of neighborhood squares, not 1.5 acres as shown in the DSEIR. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 16 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I, Letter 2.3: East Bay Regional Park District . Comment 2.3: The commenter notes his agency is willing and interested in working with this applicant and the City regarding potential open space and trail development Response: This comment is noted and no further discussion is required. Letter 2.4: City of Livermore . Comment 2.4.1: The commenter notes that the proposed Project has the potential to be inconsistent with the Doolan Canyon designation and the intent of the Resource and Open Space Planning provisions of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Cities of Dublin and Livermore. The DSEIR should provide an analysis of the Project's consistency with this MOU in terms of habitat preservation and restoration. Response: The proposed Casamira Valley Project is not inconsistent with the 2002 MOU between Livermore and Dublin. The MOU addresses an Airport Protection Area, formation of a Conservation Easement on portions of the Fallon Village project to the east, undertaking of resource and open space planning, water supply, regional transportation funding, Dublin Boulevard extension, Doolan Canyon redesignation, Central Parkway alignment, and further environmental review for the Fallon Village project. The Doolan Canyon property land use redesignation to remove the Doolan Canyon area from the Dublin General Plan area has already been accomplished per the MOD by City of Dublin Council Resolution No. 66-02. The proposed Casamira Valley Project would have no impact on an Airport Protection Area, the Central Parkway Alignment or an extension of Dublin Boulevard. A water supply assessment has been prepared for the Casamira Valley Project consistent with the MOU and recycled water would be used in this Project. Similarly, the City of Dublin has prepared a Resource Management Plan consistent with the MOU and has certified another Supplemental EIR for the Fallon Village Project in late 2005. The City of Dublin will require the Casamira Valley project developer to pay the TVTC fee as may be agreed to by the transportation committee formed by the cities of Dublin, Livermore and Pleasanton to fund regional transportation improvements. The 2002 MOU is attached to this FSEIR document and incorporated by reference into the Final Supplemental EIR. Based on the above analysis, the City of Dublin finds that the proposed Casamira Valley Project is consistent with the MOU. . Comment 2.4.2: The commenter notes that is unclear if restoration and enhancement for sensitive species habitat required in SM/BI- la, -2a, -2b, -4a, -4b, -5a and -5b will occur on or off of the Project site. If not occurring on-site, Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 17 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I mitigation areas should be located in the Livermore and Amador Valley area. specifically the Doolan Canyon area. Response: The Project applicant has indicated that replacement habitat areas for special-status species would occur primarily on the Project site as well as on adjacent properties just north and east of the Project site. Refer to Page 24 of the Revised Stage 1 Development Plan dated December 26, 2006. . Comment 2.4.3: The commenter asks who will be responsible for implementing trapping and relocation measures set forth in Mitigation Measure SM-BIO-4c. This mitigation should include oversight by a qualified biologist. Response: The language of Mitigation Measure SM-BI0-4c would require the applicant to undertake the trapping and relocation efforts mandated by the mitigation measure. To address the commenter's concern, Mitigation Measure SM-BIO-4c is modified to read as follows, additional text underlined: "The applicants shall retain the services of a qualified biologist to develop a program to capture and relocate tiger salamanders from the Project site prior to the initiation of construction. The program, including specific methods for capturing salamanders (e.g., drift fencing, pitfall traps, etc.), location of suitable relocation sites, and timing of implementation, shall be approved by the City, USFWS and CDPG and implemented prior to the initiation of construction." . Comment 2.4.4: The commenter asks who will be responsible for overseeing compliance with Mitigation Measure SM-BIO-4d. Response: Mitigation Measure SM-BIO-4d will be monitored for compliance by the City of Dublin as part of the required Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. . Comment 2.4.5: Regarding the discussion of parks and recreation on page 142 of the DSEIR, the DSEIR should include relevant information from the City's Parks and Recreation Master Plan to substantiate the assertion that enough parkland is being provided west of the site that future Moller Ranch residents would use. The discussion should also include an explanation of why the remaining required 3.5 acres of parkland is not being provided on the Moller Ranch site. Response: The City of Dublin requires dedication of parkland for development projects at a ratio of 5.0 total acres of parks per 1,000 population, which includes 1.5 acres of neighborhood parks or squares and 3.5 acres of community parks. With an estimated buildout population of 669 residents for the Casamira Valley (Moller Ranch) portion of the Project under the original Project, the Stage I Development Plan was required to show the dedication of 1 acre of neighborhood parks and/ or neighborhood square. Under the latest Stage 1 Development Plan, the Moller Ranch portion of Project would generate an estimated 596 persons at 2.0 persons per dwelling, which would result in a need for 2.98 acres of total park acres, which would be less than the original Project. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 18 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Based on Comment 2.2.6, from the City's Parks and Community Services Director, provision of 1.0 acre of parkland in the form of a neighborhood square would meet City park requirements. Provision of community parks is not required within each development project, but these larger parks are strategically located throughout the City of Dublin. The Project developer will be required to pay in-lieu fees to the City to satisfy community park dedication requirements. The Stage 1 Development Plan submitted by the applicant, dated December 26, 2006, indicates that a 1.1-acre neighborhood square would be provided as part of the Casamira Valley Project, which exceeds City neighborhood park dedication standards. The City's current Park and Recreation Master Plan does not show the placement of a Community Park within the Project area. The commenter is also directed to Comment and Response 2.2.6 from the City of Dublin Parks and Community Services Director, which confirms that the proposed Casamira Valley Project complies with City park standards. Future project residents could also use other larger City of Dublin park facilities in the Eastern Dublin area, including Emerald Glen Community Park, Ted Fairfield Park and the Dublin Sports Park. Letter 2.5: Alameda County Local Agency Formation Commission . Comment 2.5.1: The prezoning exhibit included in the DSEIR does not appear to reflect current City boundaries. Please provide updated exhibits. Response: See revised Exhibits 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6, as referenced in the Modifications and Clarifications section. The revised Exhibits are hereby incorporated by reference into this SEIR and are attached to the back of this FSEIR document and incorporated by reference. . Comment 2.5.2: The DSEIR contains conflicting information regarding the existing Williamson Act contract on the Casamira Valley (Moller Ranch) portion of the Project area. In one location, incorrect citations of the Knox-Cortese- Herzberg Act are provided. In other locations, The DSEIR indicates the City of Dublin is currently not intending to approve a cancellation. In yet other locations, the DSEIR states that a cancellation application has been received and acted upon. These issues need to be clarified. LAFCO needs to know the estimated timeline for cancellation actions and site development. Response: In response to this comment and to clarify the status of the Williamson Act contract on the Casamira Valley portion of the Project area, a Williamson Act contract does exist on this property. The applicant has requested that the City of Dublin cancel and exchange a portion of this contract, approximately 70 acres of land, following annexation of the Casamira Valley property to the City of Dublin. Since the annexation action has not occurred, no action has been taken on the contract cancellation by the City of Dublin. The proposed cancellation and Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 19 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I exchange must be approved by the Dublin City Council and no such decision has been made by the City Council. The commenter does not identify the referenced incorrect citation. City review of the initial study and DSEIR discovered an incomplete citation in the first full paragraph on p. 32 of the DSEIR, which is corrected as follows. ".. .Act (Government Code Sec. 5600Q..et seq.) governed..." The City also corrects the two citations at the middle of page 35 regarding LAFCO findings for annexation of Williamson Act lands, to read as follows. "Section 56856.5" In terms of a schedule for action on the requested Williamson Act cancellation, the City of Dublin staff anticipates action on this request in 2008, depending on action taken on the annexation request by LAFCO. · Comment 2.5.3: Annexation of the Project area is required before subdivision maps are approved. Response: Section 66454 of the State Subdivision Map Act authorizes an applicant to file and the City to approve a tentative subdivision map, conditioned upon annexation to the City. However, final subdivision maps cannot be approved until annexation to the City is completed. No tentative subdivision maps have been filed for any properties in the Project area. . Comment 2.5.4: The 13-year old EIR is dated and cannot be used effectively for evaluation of potential agricultural impacts, especially cumulative and growth inducing impacts based on changes in land use throughout the project vicinity, changes in laws and State-directed emphasis on avoidance of premature conversion of farmland to urban uses Response: The commenter is directed to Sections 2.2 and 2.3 beginning on page 3 of the DSEIR, which set forth the legal basis for reliance on the 1993 Eastern Dublin Program EIR to assist in the assessment of impacts for the proposed Project, especially growth inducing and cumulative impacts. Development of the Eastern Dublin area has proceeded based on the approved Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan. Based on the analysis set forth in these sections, the City of Dublin believes it is proper under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and CEQA Guidelines to rely on this earlier EIR. The Eastern Dublin EIR (EDEIR) analyzed the proposed Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan. The General Plan Amendment provided a long-term, comprehensive plan for urbanization of Eastern Dublin over a 20-30 year horizon. The plan proposed to change the largely vacant agricultural and open lands to an urban community. The comment does not specify what land use changes are referenced; presumably they are the very changes set in motion Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 20 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I by approval of the Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan, as analyzed in the EDEIR. The comment does not specify how the EDEIR is ineffective, or what laws have changed, or how emphasis on avoiding premature conversion of farmland may have changed since the EDEIR. There have been no major changes to the land use patterns established in 1993 and assessed in the EDEIR. Similarly, there are no changes to the current Project site from the vacant conditions assumed in the prior EIR, and no changes to the surrounding area except as planned and evaluated in the 1993 documents. Furthermore, the EDEIR, supplemented by the DSEIR specifically addresses agricultural conversion, cumulative effects and growth inducing effects of urbanizing Eastern Dublin, including premature conversion of agricultural lands. In terms of analysis of Project impacts on agricultural resources, for example, the Casamira Valley DSEIR includes a new section that updates the 1993 EDEIR in light of changes in State law and current criteria contained in the latest Cortese- Knox-Hertzberg Act (CKH Act) (page 32 et seq.). The EDEIR together with the Project DSEIR is an effective and thorough analysis of the potential for significant impacts from development of the Project, and an effective informational document so the public and decision makers can make an informed decision on the Project. . Comment 2.5.5: Please provide a title for the Appendices in the table of contents. Response: In response to this comment, following is a listing of Appendices to the DSEIR. Appendix 8.1: Appendix 8.2: Appendix 8.3: Appendix 8.4: Appendix 8.5: Appendix 8.6: Appendix 8.7: Appendix 8.8: Appendix 8.9: Appendix 8.10: Initial Study Notice of Preparation Responses to Notice of Preparation Dublin City Council Resolution 53-93, certifying the Eastern Dublin EIR Agricultural Suitability Analysis Traffic Impact Analysis Kit Fox Protection Plan Native American Tribal Consultation Air Quality Supplemental Data Not used . Comment 2.5.6: The commenter asks if this application is premature considering that a substantial amount of undeveloped land has been recently added to the City though two annexations. LAFCO policies discourage premature conversion of prime agricultural and state that LAFCO should discourage the inclusion of land not expected to be developed within five years of LAFCO action in urban service areas. Response: In answer to the commenter's question, the City of Dublin does not believe that action on the proposed Casamira Valley is premature. Although Page 21 March 2007 Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Alameda County LAFCO has recently approved two annexations to the City of Dublin, including the Wallis Ranch property approved by LAFCO in May 2005, and Mission Peak properties, approved by LAFCO in September 2006, development of these two properties in question is anticipated to be largely completed within the next five-year period. Also, it is likely that the proposed Casamira Valley development would offer differing housing types than are anticipated in other development applications in the Eastern Dublin area. Specifically, a wide variety of unit types for each density currently exist in the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area. Unit types vary from apartments in projects such as Archstone, condominium flats in The Villages, high density podium housing in the Transit Center, small single family detached houses with small backyards in Sorrento, cluster homes in Wallis Ranch and estate lots in Silvera Ranch. The Casamira Valley (Moller Ranch) project would provide additional housing types in the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area. The proposed Project would contain detached single-family dwellings which are alley loaded. The Project would also include townhouse units. All dwelling units would have a small backyard. While some of these types of housing units are present in the Eastern Dublin today, these unit types are not the predominant unit and would provide additional units types in the area to meet various housing needs. The City notes that none of the Project area is prime agricultural land under the CEQA definition in section 21060.1 or CEQA Guidelines Appendix G, or under the C:KH Act in section 56064, as set forth in the DSEIR. Finally, the City notes that annexations and development within Eastern Dublin have proceeded in a measured, orderly manner since 1993, consistent with both City and LAFCO policies to avoid urban sprawl and premature conversion of agricultural lands. The proposed Project does not leapfrog over other unincorporated areas and is being requested some 14 years after the 1993 Eastern Dublin approvals as befits property at the outer edge of the General Plan planning area. . Comment 2.5.7: The commenter notes that LAFCO's agricultural, service and annexation policies are not reviewed considered or included in the DSEIR. The DSEIR needs to evaluate potential impacts stemming from the proposed Project's inconsistency with LAFCO policies, especially timing of conversion of agricultural land. Response: The commenter does not specifically identify or cite to the referenced policies. As informational documents under CEQA, the EDEIR and DSEIR identified and analyzed the potential for significant impacts related to conversion of agricultural lands and provision of urban services to the Eastern Dublin planning area to support planned development. To the extent that the LAFCO factors and policies address environmental issues, information on potential impacts and mitigations is contained in the EDEIR and DSEIR for LAFCO consideration. For example, the CKH Act and LAFCO policies evince a strong interest in preserving prime agricultural lands. The EIRs directly address and analyze this issue, and based on the analyses, conclude that no prime agricultural lands exist on the Project site. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 22 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I In response to the commenter's request, following is a listing and discussion of applicable LAFCO policies relating to agricultural and service policies regarding the proposed Project. 1.01 Agriculture and Open Space 1.0102. Agricultural land shall be determined to be prime based on soil characteristics, potential for prime agriculture land designation if irrigated or productivity Discussion: Refer to Section 4.1 of the DSEIR, which is based on a recent site- specific analysis of agricultural suitability of the Casamira Valley portion of the Project site prepared by ENGEO. The ENGEO report and the DSEIR determined that the Casamira Valley site does not quality as prime agricultural land based on criteria included in the Knox-Cortese-Hertzberg Act. This conclusion is based on lack of Class I or Class IT soils, lack of suitable groundwater resources for irrigation purposes, a Storie Index rating of 44, and lack of recent sufficient animal grazing or cultivation of field or row crops on the Moller Ranch site as identified in the DSEIR. Therefore, the proposed Project would be consistent with this policy. 1.0103. LAFCO shall discourage proposals that encourage or support urbanization outside of cities unless adverse public health and safety would occur and there is no feasible proposal alternative. Discussion: As identified in the above discussion section, the DSEIR notes that the Casamira Valley site does not qualify as prime agricultural land. This property has been identified for future urban development in the Dublin General Plan since 1993. Some 14 years later, this property is now being considered for urbanization since properties closer to the City of Dublin have already developed, are in process of developing or have been approved for development. This application represents most of the remaining undeveloped land in Eastern Dublin and represents a logical extension of City boundaries. Therefore, the proposed Project would be consistent with this policy. 1.0104. LAPCO shall discourage city annexations of prime agricultural or important open space areas if such areas are not needed for urbanization within five years. Discussion: The DSEIR notes that the Casamira Valley site does not qualify as prime agricultural land and thus this policy does not apply to this application. Also, as noted in the response to comment 2.5.6, the City of Dublin anticipates that recently annexed properties to the City of Dublin will be largely built out within the next five-year period. Wallis Ranch, which was approved for annexation to the City in May, 2005 recently received City Council approval of a Stage 2 Development Plan, Tentative Subdivision Map and Site Development Review. It is anticipated that construction of dwellings will begin in 2008. The Fallon Crossings Project was recently approved for annexation into the City and the City is reviewing specific development Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 23 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I proposals on this site. Therefore, the proposed Project would be consistent with this policy. 1.0106. LAPCO will work to preserve agricultural and open space land resources by considering the proposal's effect on important open space and agricultural lands and by guiding development away from agricultural and open space lands not planned or needed for development. Discussion: Portions of the Casamira Valley property have been designated for residential land use since 1993 in the City of Dublin General Plan. This is the portion requested for development. Other portions of the property are designated for Stream Corridor and Rural Residential / Agricultural uses and only limited development, one dwelling per 100 acres of land, will be allowed on these portions of the site. This area would be offered to the City of Dublin as a permanent non-buildable open space and conservation easement area. Therefore, the proposed Project would be consistent with this policy. 1.0107. Development or use of land for other than open space uses shall be guided away from existing prime agricultural lands in open space towards areas containing non-prime agricultural lands unless that action undermines adopted county or city land use plans that include open space and agricultural land conservation policies and plans. Discussion: The Casamira Valley property does not contain prime agricultural lands as identified in the DSEIR and portions of the property have been designated for Low Density Residential land use in the Dublin General Plan. The application to the City of Dublin requests that the Casamira Valley property be included in the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. This Specific Plan, adopted by the City in 1993 provides for Resource Management policies and programs for open space preservation (Chapter 3.5). Therefore, the proposed Project would be consistent with this policy. 1.0108. Urbanization or nonagricultural use of existing vacant lots or prime agricultural land areas within the jurisdiction of SOl of a local agency shall be encouraged before any proposal is approved which would allow for or lead to the development of prime agricultural or open space lands outside the jurisdiction or SOl of any local agency. Discussion: The Project does not include prime agricultural lands, and is already within the Spheres of Influence for both the City and DSRSD. No such major undeveloped parcels of land remain in the incorporated City limits or Sphere of Influence of Dublin that would accommodate a parcel with approximately the same dwelling unit count as proposed in the Casamira Valley Project. Therefore, the proposed Project would be consistent with this policy. 1.0109. LAP CO shall require that applications with prezones or SOl proposals identify areas set aside for agricultural or open space preserves and include protections for adjacent agricultural land Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 24 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Discussion: The applicant's most recent Stage I Development Plan submittal to the City on December 26,2006, indicates that the applicant has proposed the dedication of a 229 -acre area as a permanent conservation easement. This area would retain its Rural Residential/ Agricultural (RR/ A) land use designation and would remain subject to the Williamson Act through the remainder of the non-renewal period. The RR/ A land use designation is highly restrictive, normally allowing one dwelling per 100 acres, and is intended to remain primarily as open space. (EDEIR p. 2-6.) For the proposed Casamira Valley Project, the terms of the conservation easement would prohibit construction of dwellings within the easement area. Much of the lands to the south and east of the Project are also designated RR/ A, preserving open space uses adjacent to the Project. Also, lands to the east of the Project area lie outside the General Plan area of the City of Dublin and the Dublin Sphere of Influence. Therefore, the proposed Project would be consistent with this policy. 5.0 General City Annexation and Detachment Policies and Standards 5.14. The Commission shall seek to approve changes of organization that encourage and provide well ordered, efficient development patterns that include the appropriate preservation and conservation of open space and prime agricultural lands within and around developed areas, and contribute to the orderly formation and development of local agencies based upon local circumstances and conditions. Discussion: The City of Dublin believes the proposed Casamira Valley Project is a well-designed project that is consistent with the Dublin General Plan, which has provided efficient, logical and protective development patterns that have effectively guided development since 1993. Adequate protection is provided for stream courses that traverse the Project site through Stage I Development Plan policies and mitigation measures contained in the DSEIR. Also, as part of the revised Stage 1 Development Plan application, the Project applicant has proposed the dedication of a permanent conservation easement area totaling approximately 229 acres of land, which would be located on the Rural Residential (non development) portion of the Project area. The applicant proposes to repair approximately 8,420 linear feet of Moller Creek. The restoration program would include erosion control and planting of native emergent wetland species and woody riparian species along creek banks. Therefore, the proposed Project would be consistent with this policy. 5.15. The Commission shall consider existing zoning and prezones, general plans and other land use plans, interests and plans of unincorporated communities, SOls and master service plans of neighboring governmental entities and recommendations and determinations from related service review agencies. Discussion: The City of Dublin believes the proposed annexation is consistent with this policy, inasmuch as the Casamira Valley property has been included Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 25 March 2007 I I I I I 'I I I I I I I I I I I I I I in the City's General Plan for Low Density Residential development since 1993, is within both Dublin's and DSRSD's Sphere of Influence and within DSRSD's master plans, e.g., for water supply and wastewater planning. The Project is a logical and efficient extension of Dublin boundaries. (See also Responses 2.5.6 and 2.5.7.) There are no other proximate governmental agencies that can provide the requested range of level of service other than the City of Dublin. 5.17. LAFCO discourages the annexation of vacant land or the extension of urban services unless there is a demonstrated near term (within five years) need for services. Discussion: As indicated above, other properties in the City of Dublin that were recently annexed to the community are in the process of developing. The City of Dublin therefore believes that there is a need to annex the Casamira Valley property at this time, as requested by the property owner and consistent with the Dublin General Plan. 5.18. Prior to annexation to a city or special district, the petitioners shall provide information demonstrating that the need for governmental services exist, the annexation agency is capable of providing service, that a plan for services exist and that the annexation is the best alternative to provide seI'Vlce. Discussion: As required by this policy, the City of Dublin's application for annexation to LAFCO will be accompanied by a Plan for Services. The Project is therefore consistent with this Policy. 5.111. A proposed annexation shall be a logical and reasonable expansion to the annexing district. Discussion: Properties proposed for annexation are contiguous with existing City boundaries on the west and south. The proposed action would compete the City of Dublin boundary to the north, where the northerly annexation boundary would extend to the Alameda/ Contra Costa County boundary line. Also, the proposed annexation area lies within both the City of Dublin and DSRSD approved Sphere of Influence, which recognizes that the properties should be a part of Dublin. For these reasons, the proposed Project is consistent with this policy. . Comment 2.5.8: The commenter notes that the site des not appear to meet the criteria for an infill site as defined in Government Code Section 21061.3. Response: The commenter is correct. Page 32 of the DSEIR notes that the proposed Project does not meet the criteria of Section 21061.1 of the Public Resources Code definition of agricultural lands. The DSEIR does not state or imply that the Project is an infill site; however, the statutory reference in parentheses mistakenly refers to PRC section 21061.3, which is hereby corrected to 21061.1. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 26 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . Comment 2.5.9: The commenter requests more information on the timing of services: when needed and to what location of the site. And are any services dependent on the built out of the two most recently approved annexation areas? Does approval of this Project prior to build out of those recently annexed areas cause leapfrog development, inefficient or more expensive services and what are the potential impacts? Response: The applicant indicates that domestic water to the Casamira Valley portion of the Project area would be served by an extension of an existing DSRSD water line that terminates in Fallon Road south of the Project site. DSRSD proposes to extend this water line to the northwest to the planned Fallon Road/Tassajara Road intersection and extension of the water line is not dependent on the buildout of other recently annexed properties. The applicant also indicates that an existing 12-inch diameter sanitary sewer service would be extended from its current terminus at the northerly boundary of Dublin Ranch in Tassajara Road. This extension is also not dependent on the buildout of other annexation areas. The above information is included in the Stage 1 Development Plan for the Casamira Valley Project submitted to the City of Dublin on December 26, 2006. The extension of water and sewer service will be required when the proposed Casamira Valley Project is developed, anticipated for 2009. Additional information on the proposed extension of municipal services will be submitted to LAFCO in conjunction with the City's annexation application. The City notes that the previously mentioned development approval process in connection with the Wallis Ranch and Mission Peak annexations will also be required for the Project. The Project is not expected to leapfrog vacant properties. Instead, it is expected to develop in the consistent, gradual pattern characteristic of the Tassajara Road area. . Comment 2.5.10: The commenter asks about the potential long and short term effects on adjacent agricultural lands not proposed for development. Response: Conversion of a portion of the Moller Ranch (Casamira Valley) Project is not anticipated to have any short or long term effects on continuation of grazing and agricultural operations on lands to the north and east. Lands north of the Casamira Valley Project are zoned for agricultural uses and are under the jurisdiction of Contra Costa County. Property east of the Casamira Valley development area would remain under the ownership of the Moller family but are considered too remote from urban services to develop. These lands are not, and never have been, designated for development in the Dublin General Plan and lie outside the City's General Plan area. The Moller property east of Casamira Valley area is also extremely steep and development would not comply with slope preservation requirements contained in the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. No areas within the City of Dublin to the west or south are designated for agricultural uses. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 27 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . Comment 2.5.11: The commenter asks if an SB 610 Water Supply Report has been prepared for this Project. Response: The proposed Project does not meet the threshold of 500 dwellings that require the preparation of the SB 610 Report. The DSEIR water supply discussion on pages 70-72 notes that the Project is included in DSRSD's Final Water Supply Analysis and Urban Water Management Plan, as well as its Programmatic Water Supply Analysis, all of which documents are incorporated herein by reference and available for review in the Planning Division at Dublin City Hall, 100 Civic Plaza, Dublin CA, during normal business hours. These analyses demonstrate that Zone 7 and DSRSD have secured sufficient long term water supplies for all of Eastern Dublin. . Comment 2.5.12: The commenter notes that Appendix 8.5 states there may be 80 cows on the site, but does not draw a conclusion regarding Government Code Section 56064 (c). This conclusion should be disclosed in the DSEIR. Response: Government Code Section 56064 is the LAFCO definition of prime agricultural lands. Subsection (c) identifies qualifying lands if they support livestock at one animal unit per acre. Assuming the 80 cattle were present on the Moller Project site, the carrying capacity is approximately one animal per 3 acres. Assuming the cattle were on the 1,070 acre area mentioned in Appendix 8.5, the carrying capacity is less than one animal unit per 10 acres. Neither of these figures meets the referenced qualification for the prime agricultural lands definition. The commenter is directed to review the fourth full paragraph on page 34 of the DSEIR, which indicates that the Casamira Valley site supports approximately 0.10 animal unit per area, which is less that the criteria of one animal unit per acre, as outlined in the first bullet point on page 2 of the ENGEO Agricultural Suitability Analysis in Appendix 8.5. This information is contained in the DSEIR. . Comment 2.5.13: The commenter asks if more recent storage data is available for the Main Basin. The information presented is from 1996. Response: More recent information regarding the Main Basin storage is not available, however, the source of the Main Basin reference in Table 4.4-1 is DSRSD's 2005 Urban Water Master Plan. As further indicated in the Programmatic Water Supply Analysis and Section 4.3 of the DSEIR, the proposed Project would not be dependent on the Main basin as a water source. Instead, the applicant has requested annexation to the Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD) in order to receive domestic water. DSRSD water sources include primarily imported water from the State Water Project, as shown in Table 4.4-1 of the DSEIR. Also refer to Letter 2.1 from DSRSD staff, indicating DSRSD has sufficient water capacity to serve the proposed Project, based on the District's 2005 Urban Water Management Plan. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 28 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I . Comment 2.5.14: The commenter asks how many trees of what type would be removed. The DEIR indicates that heritage oak trees could be removed. Pursuant to SB 1334 and CEQA, the level of protection for these trees would be reduced because of the transfer of land use jurisdiction from County to the City of Dublin. This is a significant adverse impact that needs to be quantified and additional mitigation may need to be provided. Response: In response to the commenter's concern, additional analysis of the Stage 1 Development Plan indicates that four heritage oak trees are located on the Casamira Valley site. All are located outside of proposed development area and are not proposed for removal. These trees will be protected during Project constructed through adherence to the Dublin Heritage Tree Ordinance, as enforced by the City of Dublin Community Development. Therefore, there would be no impact to heritage trees and no additional mitigation measures are required. This is documented in an arborist report prepared for the proposed Project prepared by the firm of HortScience dated October 27, 2006, which is incorporated by reference into this FSEIR. Copies of the HortScience report are available for review at the Dublin Planning Department, 100 Civic Plaza, Dublin CA during normal business hours. A copy of an exhibit from the Hortscience report depicting the location of heritage oak trees on the Moller Ranch property is attached to this document. Letter 2.6: Alameda County Resource Conservation District · Comment 2.6.1: The commenter notes that the proposed Project would result in the loss of approximately 238 acres of private rangeland in Alameda County and should be mitigated with permanent protection through conservation easements and other innovative approaches to support the working landscape. Response: The commenter is incorrect that the Project would result in loss of 238 acres of private rangeland. The most recently submitted Stage 1 Development Plan indicates that the developed portion of the site would include approximately 70 acres of land (residential area, roadways and park), not 238 acres of land, as asserted. Approximately 132 acres of the 226-acre site would continue to be designated for Rural Residential land uses and would also be placed in a permanent conservation easement that will preclude future development. The conservation easement would also include additional lands for a total size of 299 acres of land. Loss of habitat and rangeland in the Eastern Dublin area has been addressed in Impact 3.7/ A of the Eastern Dublin EIR, which stated that implementation of the Eastern Dublin General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan would result in loss of as much as 3,700 acres of existing vegetation. Loss of rangeland and vegetation was also identified as a significant adverse cumulative impact. Mitigation Measures 3.7/1.0 through 4.0 are contained in the Eastern Dublin EIR and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan to reduce this impact to a less-than-significant level. These impacts require that disturbance or removal of native trees and Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 29 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I vegetation be minimized, preparation of vegetation management plans and preparation of revegetation and restoration plans for disturbed areas. The approved mitigations also require the preparation of grazing management plans to protect riparian and wetland areas, increase plant diversity and promote the recovery of native plants. The proposed Moller Stage 1 Development Plan dated December 26, 2006 would minimize disturbance or native vegetation by concentrating development into Medium Density Residential designated areas rather than dispersing development through the site. This approach is consistent with Mitigation Measure 3.7/1.0. The City of Dublin has prepared a Grazing Management Plan for the Eastern Dublin area, consistent with Mitigation Measure 3.7/4.0. The revised Stage 1 Development Plan for the Casamira Valley Project also notes that grazing would be allowed on the Project site, pursuant to a grazing management plan prepared by the applicant and approved by the City of Dublin. The Project grazing plan must be found to be consistent with the overall Eastern Dublin Grazing Plan. This feature of the proposed Project would be consistent with Mitigation Measure 3.7/2.0 and 3.0. Grazing would occur on portions of the Moller Ranch designated in the Dublin General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan (following the proposed amendment to the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan) for Rural Residential land use and where the proposed conservation easement would be located. Finally, the commenter is referred to the responses to Letter 2.5 from the Alameda County Local Agency Formation Commission, where it is noted that the Moller Ranch portion of the Project area does not meet the Knox-Cortese- Hertzberg criteria for "prime agricultural lands." · Comment 2.6.2: The Williamson Act Exchange Program should be used to mitigate for loss of grasslands. Other ranches are available in the county for a permanent easement and associated natural resources will benefit from land protection. Response: The commenter's suggestion is noted. As noted in the Response to Comment 2.6.1, there are no supplemental impacts of the Project regarding loss of grassland and no additional mitigation measures are required beyond those adopted in the Eastern Dublin EIR. As part of the most recent Stage 1 Development Plan submittal, the Project applicant is voluntarily proposing to participate in the Williamson Act Exchange Program as discussed more fully in the Clarifications and Modifications section of this FSEIR document. · Comment 2.6.3: The commenter notes that 173 acres of the Project area is planned for open space. The commenter encourages continued active grading on the site where practical. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 30 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Response: Refer to the Response to Comment 2.6.1, above, which notes that grazing would be allowed on portions of the Moller Ranch property. Letter 2.7: Alameda County Public Works Agency . Comment 2.7.1: The commenter notes that the annexation portion of the Project should be reviewed. The segment of Tassajara Road between the existing City boundary and the boundary of this Project should be included in the proposed annexation. Response: This comment is acknowledged and the City of Dublin will submit an annexation request to LAFCO that does not leave any gaps in local governmental jurisdiction regarding Tassajara Road. . Comment 2.7.2: The commenter requests that the widening of Tassajara Road should continue through the presently unincorporated segment of this roadway. Roadway widening and improvements have been identified in the DSEIR and these improvements are necessary to provide consistent lanes, lane widths, shoulder, drainage, lighting and roadside improvements. Response: The revised Stage 1 Development Plan dated December 26, 2006 identifies that approximately 3.8 acres of the Moller Ranch portion of the Project site would be reserved for widening of Tassajara Road. Widening of Tassajara Road along the frontage of properties included in the DSEIR will be made a condition of Project approval by the City of Dublin. . Comment 2.7.3: The commenter requests that sidewalks be provided along the County segment of Tassajara Road connecting to the community network consistent with improvements in the City boundary. Response: Preliminary plans for the widening of Tassajara Road approved by the City of Dublin show that sidewalks will be constructed as part of Tassajara Road improvements. Improvements along the Project's frontage along Tassajara Road will be made a condition approval by the City of Dublin. In addition, the Dublin General Plan requires construction of a Class II bicycle lane along Tassajara Road and land will be required to be dedicated to the City for this purpose as part of roadway improvements. . Comment 2.7.4: The commenter asks that bike lanes or paths be provided along the County segment of Tassajara Road consistent with improvements within the City boundary. Response: Refer to the Response to Comment 2.7.3, above regarding provision of a Class II bicycle trail along Tassajara Road. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 31 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Letter 2.8: Alameda County Zone 7 . Comment 2.8.1: The COffimenter notes that page 72 of the DSEIR identifies the Project area as being located in the Arroyo Los Positas watershed. The Project may be within the Tassajara Creek watershed. Response: This comment is noted and the following correction is made to the text on page 72 regarding Project watersheds. "The Project area is located within the .'\rroyo Las Positas Tassajara Creek watershed, a sub-basin of the Alameda Creek watershed. Thc i\rroyo Las Pocitac v"aterched drains westerly into and through the Arroyo Mocho to the l\rroyo Dc La Laguna, vlhich diocharges into Alameda Creek near Sunol, and dicchargcc to San Francisco Eay ncar Union City · Comment 2.8.2: On page 74 of the DSEIR, the commenter notes that a Dublin Ranch Storm Drainage Master Plan was prepared and has been updated for each development in the Dublin planning area. Zone 7 requests a copy of the storm drainage plan as well as any other hydrology of hydraulic information to determine the impact on Zone 7 flood control facilities.. Zone 7 also requests that that the City and Project applicant consult with Zone 7 on any proposed channel improvements. Future improvements to flood control facilities are planned and the applicant should provide a technical analysis to identify impacts on the regional flood protection system. Response: The Eastern Dublin EIR notes that implementation of the Eastern Dublin General Plan and Specific Plan would result in increased runoff to creeks with an increased potential for flooding (Impact 3.5/Y). Mitigation Measure 3.5/44 requires future development projects in Eastern Dublin to provide drainage facilities that will minimize any increased potential for flooding. Mitigation Measure 3.5 / 46.0 requires a storm drainage master plan to be prepared for each development projects in Eastern Dublin prior to development approval. Each storm drain master plan is required to address the following, among other items hydrologic studies of entire upstream watersheds, documentation of existing conditions, design-level analysis of impacts of proposed development and design features to minimize flows into downstream creeks and channels in order to alleviate potential erosion impacts. Mitigation Measure 3.5 / 47 requires development projects to provide facilities to alleviate the potential for downstream flooding due to Project development. The City of Dublin Public Works Department will require the applicants for individual development projects within the Casamira Valley Project area to comply with these mitigation measures prior to approval of a tentative subdivision map and other future land use entitlements. · Comment 2.8.3: The commenter notes that the Project is subject to Zone 7 special drainage fees. A Zone 7 worksheet will need to be completed, improvement plans submitted to Zone 7 and fees paid to the District. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 32 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Response: The requirements of Zone 7 to complete a worksheet, submit improvement plans and pay District fees are part of the normal Dublin development review procedure and will be completed for this Project, as requested by the commenter. Payment of Zone 7 fees will be made a condition of Project approval by the City of Dublin and such fees must be paid prior to issuance of a grading permit. · Comment 2.8.4: The commenter requests that modifications be made to the portions of page 78 of the DSEIR regarding the salt loading issue. Response: Based on the request of the commenter, the following modifications are made to the text of page 78 of the DSEIR. "The plan includes demineralizing shallow groundwater from existing Zone 7 wells (Mocho Wells 1.2,3 and 4) with high salt eontent and reinjccting it into the ground\\Tater bn.oin; the reeulting salty brine is to be pipcd out of the basin through the L^AV'^111J\ dieposal facility. (Zone 7, Salt Balance Annual :Report, June 20, 2001.) The mitigation for salt loading, i.e. the demineralization facility (Mocho Groundwater Demineralization Plant) is funded partly from water connection fees and partly from water rate revenues. All development within the Project area will pay for mitigation of increased salt loading impacts through the payment of their water and sewer hook up fees and water rates. Zone 7 has addrcsscd the salt loading impacts t{) the main groundwatcr basin and the mitigations needed in a joint ACWD DERvV fA study. Based on this study Zone 7 has included the construction of brine proceesing facilitiee ::1.0 part of their Capital Impro~:ement Progt'am that is currently being fundcd by Zonc 7 fees. The City ,,,,Till continae to work v:ith Zone 7 and with the other agencics to rcsolvc the pFoolcm. The funciffig for mitigations of Galt loading will be paid for with increased 'watcr and sev:cr ratcs of Zonce 7 and DSRSD. All dcvelopment within thc Project area ,..rill pay for mitigation of increaGcd Galt loading impacts through the payment of their watcr and scwcr hook up fccs and v:ater rates. This complies with Eastern Dublin EIR MM 3.5 / 23.0, which required recycled water projects to be coordinated with any salt mitigation requirements of Zone 7. SaH loading to thc M3in Basin from this Project devdopment is considered by Zonc 7 to bc "minima1." This impact is morc of a rcgional salt water managemcnt problem, bccause it results from the accumulation of all existing and propoeed irrigation system improvcmcnts of the entire rcgion. The salt loading impact from this Project is part of a regional salt management issue, which results from salt accumulation from all the existing and proposed irrigation systems in the entire region. As noted in the Environmental Setting section above, Zone 7 is implementing a regional demineralization program of which individual developments within the Project area would participate through payment of fees to Zone 7. Therefore, there would be no supplemental impacts with regard to Project contribution to local or regional salt loading. Casamira Valley Final Supplemental EIR City of Dublin Page 33 March 2007 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I · Comment 2.8.5: If wells are to be destroyed, a Zone 7 well drilling permit and compliance with the permit will be required to ensure wellhead protection. Response: There are likely one or more private wells within the Project area to serve existing dwellings and for agricultural purposes. This comment is noted and the applicant has been notified of this requirement. . Comment 2.8.6: All abandoned septic systems should be completely removed to eliminate them as a potential conduit for the transport of surface contamination Response: There are likely septic systems within the Project area to serve existing dwellings. This comment is noted and the applicant has been notified of this requirement. . Comment 2.8.7: The commenter requests to review all plans and specifications or any additional information and/ or studies pertaining to the proposed development. Response: The City of Dublin normally and customarily provides Zone 7 with hydrologic, hydraulic and related development information as part of the review of tentative subdivision maps. The City of Dublin will forward any subdivision maps to Zone 7 when they are submitted to the City.

Introduction and Summary 1 INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY 1.1 Introduction This report presents the results of Kimley-Horn's traffic impact study of the proposed Casamira Valley development to be located on the Moller Property, a vacant parcel to the east of Tassajara Road and north of the future Fallon Crossings site. The proposed Project would include a total of 179 single- family homes and 16 duplex units. Figure 1 shows the study area, and Figure 2 shows the proposed Project site plan. Analysis of an alternative site plan and land use (the "Project alternative") is also included in this report. The Project alternative would include 326 attached town homes to be built on the Project site. The purpose of this traffic study is to evaluate the proposed Project with respect to the potential traffic impacts, short-term and long-term roadway and circulation needs, potential mitigation measures, and any critical traffic issues that should be addressed in the on-going planning process. Nine existing and five future intersections near the proposed Project were identified as locations that may potentially be impacted by the development. Arterial roadway segments and freeway segments were also analyzed for potential impacts. The intersection and roadway operating conditions were evaluated under the following six scenarios: 1. Existing Conditions 2. Baseline Conditions 3. Baseline Plus Project Conditions 4. Buildout Conditions (Year 2025) 5. Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions 6. Buildout With Project Alternative Conditions This traffic study will be used as a background document to identify impacts and mitigation measures related to environmental review of the Casamira Valley Project under CEOA. The study will also be used to evaluate the proposed circulation and access for the Project under the design and improvement standards and policies in the City's general plan, specific plan, and subdivision and zoning ordinances. Pursuant to this evaluation, the study recommends measures that are not required as CEQA mitigations, but will improve the Project's circulation and access and assure compliance with applicable design and operation standards and policies. A residential development Project, Fallon Crossings, is proposed on the Mission Peak property located adjacent to the south of the Casamira Valley Project. A traffic study for the Fallon Crossings Project was completed in September 2005 (T JKM Transportation Consultants. "A Traffic Study for the Proposed Fallon Crossings Development." September 28, 2005). This document ("Fallon Crossings report") served as the base for this Casamira Valley traffic study. Much of the analyses for Existing and Buildout Conditions were taken directly from the Fallon Crossings report per the City's request. Other analysis and recommendations were taken from this report as noted. 1.2 Summary The proposed Project is expected to generate 141 AM peak-hour trips and 189 PM peak-hour trips, while the proposed Project alternative of 326 attached townhomes is expected to generate 143 AM peak-hour trips and 170 PM peak-hour trips. Neither proposed land use for the Project is expected to generate more AM or PM peak-hour trips than designated by the City's General Plan; therefore, no additional traffic impact analysis of the Project is required by the Alameda County Congestion Management Agency (ACCMA) to satisfy the Land Use Analysis Program of the Alameda County Congestion Management Program (CMP).

Introduction and Summary Currently, all existing study intersections operate at acceptable levels of service. They are all expected to continue to operate acceptably under Baseline, Baseline Plus Project, and Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions. Under Buildout Conditions and Buildout With Project Alternative Conditions, 12 of the 14 study intersections are expected to operate acceptably during the peak hours. The intersections of Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard and Santa Rita Road/I-580 Eastbound Ramps are expected to operate unacceptably during the PM peak hour. Cumulative Impacts and Mitiaations Required mitigation measures for Buildout and Buildout With Project Alternative Conditions, as included in the Fallon Crossings report, are described below. All references to the "Project" include the original proposed Project and the Project alternative. No additional mitigations are required as part of the analysis for the Casamira Valley Project. 1. The Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection will operate at LOS E during the PM peak hour under Buildout Conditions (including the Project). This LOS represents a significant cumulative impact. Mitigation Measure 1. Improvements at the Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road intersection are included in the Eastern Dublin Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) program. The Project is required to make its fair share payment of impact fees for these improvements. The Project developer shall advance to the City applicable monies for acquisition of right-of-way and construction of the improvements assumed in this study for the intersection of Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road. The amount of money advanced to the City shall be based on the developer's fair share of the deficit (spread over those Projects that are required to make up the deficit) between funds available to the City from Category 2 Eastern Dublin TIF funds and the estimated cost of acquiring the right-of-way and constructing the improvements. The City will provide credit for Category 2 Eastern Dublin TIF to the developer for any advance of monies made for the improvements planned for the Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road intersection. Additional improvements to improve the LOS at the Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection to an acceptable level (LOS D or better) under Buildout Conditions would require adding a fourth northbound left-turn lane on Dougherty Road. Allowing four lanes of traffic to perform a left-turn movement simultaneously would raise major concerns regarding the safety of such an operation. Moreover, additional improvements to reduce traffic impacts at this intersection are not feasible given the physical constraints at the intersection. On a periodic basis, the City should monitor the operations of Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard, as well as other intersections at the 1-580 interchanges, during the PM peak hour. Level of service analysis for this intersection should be updated as forecasted peak hour volumes become available. Therefore, the impact at the Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection under Buildout Conditions remains a significant cumulative impact. 2. The Santa Rita/I-58D Eastbound Ramps intersection will operate at LOS E during the PM peak hour under Buildout Conditions (including the Project). This LOS represents a significant cumulative impact.

Introduction and Summary Adding a third left turn lane for the eastbound off-ramp approach at the intersection of Santa Rita Road/I-580 Eastbound Ramps is expected to improve the intersection level of service to LOS D during the PM peak hour under Buildout Conditions. Mitigation Measure 2. The Project developer shall contribute a pro-rata share of the cost to improve the intersection of Santa Rita Roadll-580 Eastbound Off-Ramp-Pimlico Drive to include a third left-turn lane for the eastbound off-ramp approach at this intersection and other downstream improvements including modifications to the striping on the northbound lanes of the Tassajara Roadll-580 overpass to accept traffic from the third left-turn lane and maintain three northbound through lanes at the Tassajara Roadll-580 Westbound Ramps intersection. The current Eastern Dublin TIF program does not include this improvement; however, the program will be amended in 2006 to include this improvement. With this improvement, the impaCt at the Santa Rita/I-580 Eastbound Ramps intersection under Buildout Conditions will be reduced to a less-than-significant level. 3. With the proposed Project traffic added to Year 2030 No Project mainline freeway volumes, projected LOS on 1-580 and 1-680 would remain unchanged. However, with a projected LOS F on various segments of 1-580 and 1-680, Project trips would be adding to an already deficient condition. These specific segments would not meet the ACCMA monitoring standard of LOS E during the AM or PM peak hour. This is considered a significant cumulative impact. Although efficiency improvements (such as HOV Lanes) and expanded public transportation could be added in the 1-580 corridor, little or no additional freeway capacity for single- occupant vehicles is planned. Actions to encourage alternative travel modes include advocating HOV lanes on 1-580, extending BART to Livermore, implementing the 1-580 Smart Corridor approach (including adaptive signal timing, transit priority systems, incident management, and ramp metering), and supporting other major investments in transit. In addition, the City of Dublin plans to construct the Dublin Boulevard extension to North Canyons Parkway in Livermore as a six-lane parallel arterial that will provide additional lane capacity along the 1-580 corridor. Mitigation Measure 3. The Project is required to pay the Tri-Valley Transportation Development (TVTD) Fee for its proportionate share of 1-580 and 1-680 improvements, including HOV lanes, auxiliary lanes, and interchange improvements. The Project will also pay its proportionate share toward public transportation improvements (e.g., West Dublin BART Station and Express Bus Service from Livermore to East Dublin BART Station) by payment of the TVTD Fee. Even though the above improvements will ameliorate traffic conditions on 1-580 and 1-680 in the Tri-Valley, they will not mitigate the contribution of projected traffic demand from the Project on these freeways to a less-than-significant level. Therefore, the impact on the freeway system of 1-580 and 1-680 in the Project area remains a significant, unavoidable cumulative impact, and no additional impact beyond the analyses of the Eastern Dublin EIR or subsequent supplemental EIRs is identified. .

Introduction and Summary Recommended Proiect Improvements The following sections present measures that are not required as CEQA mitigations, but will improve the Project's circulation and access and assure compliance with applicable City design and operation standards and policies. Off-Site Project Improvements 1. Based on traffic safety considerations, traffic signals should be installed to control traffic at the two intersections providing access to and from the Project site. 2. Under Baseline Plus Project Conditions, for each northbound approach to intersections of Tassajara Road/North Project Access Street and Tassajara Road/South Project Access Street, one through lane and one exclusive 150-foot right-turn lane with a 90-foot taper should be provided for Project traffic entering the site. For each southbound approach, one through lane and an exclusive 150-foot left-turn lane with a 90-foot taper should be provided for Project traffic entering the site. Each westbound approach should have an exclusive left- turn lane and an exclusive 150-foot right-turn lane with a 90-foot taper for Project traffic exiting the site. Each intersection should include a protected southbound left-turn phase. 3. The traffic signals at the two Project access intersections should be coordinated to optimize traffic flow in the Project area. If possible, these intersections should be coordinated with the future intersection of Tassajara Road/Fallon Road. 4. According to the site plan, the two Project access intersections are approximately 625 feet apart, shorter than the minimum 750-foot spacing between signalized intersections desired by the City. The proposed spacing of these intersections should be increased closer to 750 feet if topographical restrictions permit. 5. The projected average daily traffic (ADT) for the segment of Tassajara Road between Fallon Road and the County Limit is 13,760 vehicles per day (vpd) and 13,860 vpd under Baseline Plus Project Conditions and Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions, respectively. These volumes approach the 15,000 vpd maximum threshold standard for two-lane roadways. Because the Casamira Valley Project is directly adjacent to this roadway segment and will contribute to the projected ADT on this segment, the Casamira Valley Project should construct this widening. 6. The projected ADT for the segment of Tassajara Road between Northern Access for Dublin Ranch West and Fallon Road is 14,610 vpd and 14,690 vpd under Baseline Plus Project Conditions and Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions, respectively. These volumes approach the 15,000 vpd maximum threshold standard for two-lane roadways. The Fallon Crossings report recommended that the Fallon Crossings developers widen this roadway segment from two lanes to four lanes. Because the Casamira Valley Project will contribute to the projected ADT on this segment, the Casamira Valley Project should. construct this widening in the event that this Project or Project Alternative is developed prior to the Fallon Crossings Project. 7. The projected ADT for the segment of Tassajara Road between North Dublin Ranch Drive and Northern Access for Dublin Ranch West is 18,630 vpd under Baseline Conditions. The projected ADT is 20,100 vpd and 20,180 vpd under Baseline Plus Project Conditions and Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions, respectively. These volumes exceed the 15,000 vpd maximum threshold standard for two-lane roadways. The Dublin Ranch West report recommended that the Dublin Ranch West developers widen this roadway segment from two lanes to four lanes. Because the Casamira Valley Project will contribute to the projected ADT on this segment, the Casamira Valley Project should construct this widening in I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I ~__~ Kmey-Hom ~ ~ and Associates, Inc. Introduction and Summary the event that this Project or Project Alternative is developed prior to the Dublin Ranch West Project. On-Site Project Improvements 1. If bicycle lanes are placed on streets, chokers should be designed to allow bicyclists to pass unencumbered. Signage reading "Driveways Ahead" may be posted in advance of houses to alert drivers of driveways to serve as another means to help reduce vehicle speeds and increase safety. 2. If speeding is observed along the Project access roads, additional traffic calming measures to the chokers could help maintain appropriate speeds. Narrowing the travel lanes to 11 feet could help reduce travel speeds. 3. Seventeen homes (Lots 1-17) will front North Project Access Street before the first connector street between North Project Access Street and South Project Access Street. Seven homes (Lots 18-24) will front South Project Access Street before this. first connector street. These homes will be situated on horizontal and vertical curves that may reduce stopping sight distance to driveways. Minimum sight distances and other roadway geometry issues should be provided based on the City's design standards and verified during the review process. 4. The minimum distance between all driveways should be 20 feet to allow for one parking space. The annexation request for the proposed Project includes the Moller property and additional property adjacent to the west (Tipper and Vargas properties). The Dublin Travel Demand Model (DTDM) used to estimate traffic Conditions in the study area under Year 2025 Buildout Conditions included trips generated by the Tipper and Vargas properties in accordance with the City of Dublin General Plan. As such, traffic impacts associated with the annexation Project included future development of all three properties that will be subject to the annexation (Moller, Tipper, and Vargas properties). Therefore, no additional traffic impacts or mitigations are required for the annexation Project beyond those described in this study for the Casamira Valley Project.

Intersection Analysis Methodology 2 INTERSECTION ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY 2.1 Study Intersections and Scenarios The following nine existing and five future intersections were identified as locations that may potentially be impacted by the proposed Project: 1. Dougherty Road 1 Dublin Boulevard 2. Hacienda Drive 11-580 Eastbound Ramps 3. Hacienda Drive 11-580 Westbound Ramps 4. Hacienda Drive 1 Dublin Boulevard 5. Santa Rita Road 11-580 Eastbound Ramps-Pimlico Drive 6. Tassajara Road 11-580 Westbound Ramps 7. Tassajara Road 1 Dublin Boulevard 8. Tassajara Road 1 Fallon Road (Future Intersection) 9.

Tassajara Road 1 North Project Access (Future Intersection) 14. Tassajara Road 1 South Project Access (Future Intersection) The study intersections listed above were analyzed for the AM and PM peak periods for the following four general scenarios: . Existing Conditions - This scenario evaluates existing (April 2005) traffic volumes and roadway conditions based on traffic counts, field sUNeys, and analysis extracted directly from the Fallon Crossings traffic study. . Baseline Conditions - This scenario uses existing land use conditions plus future traffic from approved and pending Projects in Dublin, Pleasanton, and Dougherty Valley. Approved Projects are developments that are under construction, built but not fully occupied, or not built but have final site development review (or equivalent) approval. Baseline Conditions for the proposed Project were developed by subtracting trips generated by the Casamira Valley Project from the Baseline Plus Project Conditions as presented in the Fallon Crossings traffic study, using the trip distribution and assignment applied in that study. . Baseline Plus Project Conditions - This scenario adds trips generated by the proposed Casamira Valley to Baseline Conditions. . Year 2025 Buildout Conditions - This scenario uses the traffic volume forecasts obtained from the (DTDM) for Year 2025. Year 2025 Buildout With Project Conditions model includes all of the approved, pending, future build out (including "general plan") Projects, and the proposed Casamira Valley Project. For freeways, this scenario uses Year 2030 forecasts derived from DTDM forecasts for Year 2025, as Caltrans currently utilizes Year 2030 as the horizon year for analysis of freeway operations. Buildout Conditions were taken directly from the Fallon Crossings traffic study.

Intersection Analysis Methodology 2.2 level of Service Analysis Methodology Sionalized Intersections Level of service (LOS) is a measure of the quality of the overall operating characteristics of an intersection, street, or highway. It is defined in terms of volume-to-capacity 01IC) ratios, which can be correlated to travel time, traffic conflicts and interruptions, freedom to maneuver, driving convenience and comfort, and operating costs. Level of service is dependent upon traffic volume and composition of traffic. LOS qualifies operating conditions at intersections ranging from LOS A (free-flow condition) to LOS F (highly congested condition). The LOS calculations utilize Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) methodology adopted by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority (CCTA) for signalized intersections. Unsicmalized Intersections The evaluation of unsignalized intersections applied the operations method of the 2000 Highway Capacity Manual. For two-way stop-controlled intersections the average control delay for the worst approach is reported. As for signalized intersections, LOS ranges from LOS A (free-flow condition) to LOS F (highly congested condition). Appendix A presents methodologies used in the LOS analysis for signalized and unsignalized intersections. 2.3 Significant Impact Criteria The following significant impact criteria were taken from the Fallon Crossings report. Intersections An impact would be significant if an intersection previously mitigated to an acceptable level would now exceed acceptable levels. In addition, an impact would be significant if a new intersection is identified as exceeding acceptable levels and if such intersection was not previously identified in the Eastern Dublin EIR as a study intersection. The General Plan standard requires that the City strive for LOS D at intersections (General Plan Circulation and Scenic Highways Guiding Policy F). Routes of ReQional Sianificance With respect to routes of regional significance, an impact would be significant if such routes would fail to comply with the applicable standard of the General Plan. The General Plan requires the City to make a good faith effort to maintain LOS D on arterial segments of, and at the intersections of, routes of regional significance (Dublin Boulevard, Dougherty Road, Tassajara Road and San Ramon Road) or implement transportation improvements or other measures to improve the level of service. If such improvements are not possible or sufficient, and the Tri-Valley Transportation Council cannot resolve the matter, the City may modify the level of service standard assuming other jurisdictions are not physically impacted (General Plan Circulation and Scenic Highways Guiding Policy E). The maximum ADT threshold standards of the General Plan are used to determine the through lane requirements for two-lane roadways (15,000 vpd), four-lane roadways (30,000 vpd), six-lane roadways (50,000 vpd), and eight-lane roadways (70,000 vpd). Casamira Valley Residential Development Final Traffic Report July 17, 2006 Page 9 ~-_~ Kimley-Horn ~ ~ and Associates, Inc.. Intersection Analysis Methodology Freewav Seoments The LOS for a freeway segment is based on peak hour traffic volumes in terms of number of passenger cars per hour. Similar to intersection operation, the 2000 Highway Capacity Manual ranks volume-to-capacity ratios for freeway segment operation ranging from LOS A (free-flow condition) to LOS F (highly congested condition). The standard for freeway impacts is based upon the Alameda County Congestion Management Agency (ACCMA) monitoring standards and is established at LOS E, which represents "at capacity" operation. Public Transit Public transit impacts would be significant if the demand for public transit service would be increased above that which could be accommodated by local transit operators or agencies. Traffic Safety CEQA allows for consideration of increased hazards on roadway facilities as part of the basis for identifying standards of significance. A significant traffic safety impact would include a design feature, such as a sharp curve or dangerous intersection, which would not be consistent with City of Dublin engineering design standards or standards published by other traffic engineering professional organizations.

Existing Conditions 3 EXISTING CONDITIONS 3.1 Roadway Network Because the Fallon Crossings Project is adjacent to the proposed Casamira Valley Project, lane geometry, traffic counts, and intersection analysis were taken directly from the Fallon Crossings report. The description below of important roadways serving the Project site was taken from the Fallon Crossings report. Interstate 580 is an eight-lane east-west freeway that connects Dublin with local cities such as Livermore and Pleasanton as well as regional origins and destinations such as Oakland, Hayward and Tracy. In the vicinity of the proposed Project, 1-580 carries between 184,000 and 198,000 vpd (according to Caltrans' 2003 Traffic Volumes on California State Highways) with interchanges at Dougherty Road/Hopyard Road, Hacienda Drive, Tassajara Road/Santa Rita Road and Fallon Road/EI Charro Road. Interstate 680 is a six-lane north-south freeway through Alameda and Contra Costa Counties serving such communities as Dublin, Pleasanton, and San Ramon. The new southbound 1-680 two-lane f1yover connecting to eastbound 1-580 was completed and opened to traffic in 2002. A direct one-lane connector ramp also exists connecting northbound 1-680 to eastbound 1-580. Dublin Boulevard is an east-west, major arterial in the City of Dublin. Dublin Boulevard, west of Dougherty Road, is a four to six lane divided road fronted largely by retail and commercial uses. Between Dougherty Road and Tassajara Road, Dublin Boulevard is a six-lane divided arterial fronted primarily by residential, commercial and vacant lands. Dublin Boulevard extends east of Tassajara Road to Keegan Street as a four-to-five lane roadway fronted by new residential development. Tassajara Road connects with Santa Rita Road at 1-580 to the south and continues north to the Town of Danville. It is four lanes wide between 1-580 and North Dublin Ranch Road. North of the Contra Costa County line, it is named Camino Tassajara. Camino Tassajara is used primarily for local traffic in the Tassajara Valley, with some through traffic. Santa Rita Road is a six-lane divided urban arterial from the 1-580 interchange south to Valley Avenue. It serves the east side of Pleasanton, including the Hacienda Business Park, and provides access to the downtown Pleasanton area. Central Parkway is a two-to-three lane east-west collector that extends from Arnold Road to Keegan Street (east of Tassajara Road). An extension of Central Parkway east of Fallon Road is being planned as part of the Eastern Dublin Properties Project. Hacienda Drive is an arterial designed to provide access to 1-580. North of 1-580, Hacienda Drive is a three-to-six-Iane arterial running in the north-south direction from Gleason Drive southerly to 1-580. It is primarily fronted by commercial, office and residential uses. South of 1-580, Hacienda Drive is a six-lane divided road, a major arterial in the City of Pleasanton. Figure 3 illustrates the existing lane geometry and intersection control at the nine existing study intersections.

Existing Conditions 3.2 Existing Transit Service The description below of existing transit service in the Project area was taken from the Fallon Crossings report. Altamont Commuter Express (ACE): The Altamont Commuter Express operates three trains per day between Stockton and San Jose. The trains provide westbound service in the morning and eastbound service in the evening. The trains have Tri-Valley stations at Vasco Road in Livermore and near the downtowns of Livermore and Pleasanton, the latter of which is most likely to serve Dublin commuters. The ACE train was not in operation at the time the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment were approved and the Eastern Dublin EIR was certified. Livermore - Amador Valley Transit Authority (LA VT A - Wheels): The Livermore-Amador Valley Transit Authority provides bus service to the communities of Dublin, Pleasanton and Livermore. Several bus lines currently provide service to Eastern Dublin, including lines 12, 12X, 10A, 1A, 1B, 20X and the ACE connector. Lines operate on approximately 30-minute headways. It is expected that these lines would be expanded further as additional homes and businesses are constructed in the Eastern Dublin area. There is a Wheels bus connection between each ACE train and the Dublin/Pleasanton BART station with intermediate stops. Fixed route transit service, Direct Access Responsive Transit (DART), is also available in the Dublin area. BART: The Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) District operates trains between the Dublin-Pleasanton station near Hacienda Drive and the Oakland-San Francisco area. BART runs at 15- to 20-minute headways between 4:00 AM and 12:00 AM on weekdays. Saturday service is available every 20 minutes between 6:00 AM and 12:45 AM. Service is also available on Sunday from 8:00 AM to 12:45 AM with 20-minute headways. The Dublin-Pleasanton station is accessible by private auto, taxi cabs, buses, and private shuttles as well as by pedestrians and bicyclists. The parking lot has a capacity of approximately 1,680 parking stalls on the north side of 1-580 (Le., Dublin side), in addition to more parking stalls on the south side of 1-580 (Le., Pleasanton side). 3.3 level of Service Analysis (Existing Conditions) The existing AM and PM peak hour traffic volume counts were conducted at the nine existing study intersections in April 2005. Figure 4 shows the current peak hour turning movement volumes at the study intersections. Table 1 summarizes the results of the signalized and unsignalized intersection level of service analyses for existing conditions. Detailed calculations are contained in Appendix B. Currently, all nine existing study intersections operate at acceptable service levels during the peak hours.

Baseline Conditions 4 BASELINE CONDITIONS Most of the discussion of the Baseline Conditions in the following sections was taken directly from the Fallon Crossings study. 4.1 Introduction Baseline Conditions for the proposed Project were developed by subtracting trips generated by the Casamira Valley Project from the Baseline Plus Project Conditions as presented in the Fallon Crossings traffic study. The trip distribution and assignment assumptions applied in the Fallon Crossings report were used in this analysis. Baseline Conditions are Existing Conditions with the addition of traffic from approved and pending Projects in Dublin, Pleasanton, and Dougherty Valley. Approved Projects in Dublin are developments that are under construction, built but not fully occupied, or not built but have final site development review (SDR) approval. City of Dublin staff provided a list of approved and pending Projects within their jurisdiction. The City of Pleasanton and Contra Costa County were contacted in May 2005 to ascertain approved and pending Projects, both north and south of the City of Dublin that potentially could impact the study intersections. Tables C1 and C2 of Appendix C list approved and pending Projects in Dublin, respectively. Table C4 of Appendix C lists approved and pending Projects in Pleasanton and Dougherty Valley. 4.2 Trip Generation Trip generation is defined as the number of "vehicle trips" produced by a particular land use or Project. A trip is defined as a one-direction vehicle movement. The total number of trips generated by each land use includes the inbound and outbound trips. The trip rates are obtained from the standard reference Trip Generation, 7th Edition, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). Trips rates were also obtained from previous traffic study reports of corresponding Projects. Tables C1 and C2 of Appendix C summarize the trip generation assumptions for the approved and pending Projects in Dublin, respectively. The approved Projects identified in Table C1 are expected to generate a total of approximately 79,118 additional daily trips, with 7,206 trips occurring during the AM peak hour, and 7,968 trips occurring during the PM peak hour. Subtracting the number of trips associated with the Casamira Valley (Moller Property) Project, the pending Projects identified in Table C2 are expected to generate a total of approximately 31,634 additional daily trips, with 2,586 trips occurring during the AM peak hour, and 2,766 trips occurring during the PM peak hour. 4.3 Trip Distribution and Assignment Trip distribution is the process of determining what proportions of vehicle trips would travel between the Project site and various destinations within a study area. Trip assignment is the process of determining the various paths vehicles would take from the Project site to each destination. Trip distribution assumptions were taken from the Fallon Crossings traffic study. They were developed based on information from previous traffic studies of approved Projects, knowledge of the area, consultation with City staff and results from the new DTDM. Trips from approved Projects and pending Projects were added to the existing volumes to forecast the turning volumes under Baseline (Existing + Approved + Pending) Conditions. The traffic volumes at the study intersections for this scenario take into account future traffic (approved plus pending) to and from Pleasanton and Dougherty Valley.

Baseline Conditions Figure 5 shows the forecasted turning movement volumes at the study intersections under Baseline Conditions. Figure C1 of Appendix C illustrates lane geometry and intersection control assumptions for Baseline Conditions. Appendix C contains Baseline Conditions turning movement volumes for each study intersection. 4.4 Planned Roadway Improvements For this scenario, three of the future intersections (Tassajara Road/Fallon Road, Fallon Road/Dublin Boulevard, Fallon Road/Street "En) are assumed to be in place and signalized as part of other development improvements expected in the area. The northeasterly leg of the Tassajara RoadlFallon Road intersection will be constructed as part of the Fallon Crossings development. The Fallon Road/Street "En intersection will be constructed as part of Phase 4 of the Silveria Ranch development. The interim geometries for the Tassajara Road/Fallon Road, Fallon Road/Dublin Boulevard, and Fallon Road/Street "En under the Baseline Conditions are shown in Figure C1 in Appendix C. Under Baseline Conditions, the intersections of EI Charro Road/I-580 Eastbound Ramps and Fallon Road/I-580 Westbound Ramps will be widened and signalized as part of the Phase I Fallon Road Interchange Improvement Project. The intersection of Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road would consist of the following lane configurations based on the improvements planned by the City of Dublin for this intersection: . Northbound Dougherty Road approach would have three left-turn lanes, three through lanes, and two right-turn lanes. . Southbound Dougherty Road approach would have two left-turn lanes, three through lanes and one shared through/right-turn lane. . Eastbound Dublin Boulevard approach would include two left-tum lanes, three through lanes and two right-turn lanes. . Westbound Dublin Boulevard approach would have three left-turn lanes, three through lanes and one right-turn lane. These improvements are included in the City's 5-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and are expected to be implemented by the time the proposed Fallon Crossings Project is fully developed. The current CIP Project to install these improvements at Dublin Boulevard and Dougherty Road is funded by Project developers who are required to pay their pro-rata share of the cost to construct these improvements through payment of the Eastern Dublin Traffic Impact Fee. The extension of Fallon Road north to Tassajara Road will include two lanes of traffic for the interim (Eastern Dublin TIF improvement). ~.^ Casamira Valley Residential Development Final Traffic Report July 17, 2006 Page 17 ~ N Not to Scale FIGURE 5 -.. - l'i~" 2 3 ~~ 4 ~! i' 5 il 6 d L'''I'''' .,1< L"II3131 Lt. 1"'1 i::' ~ L",{3Sll L59t<4S3) :c.....

Baseline Plus Project Conditions 1 J 5 BASELINE PLUS PROJECT CONDITIONS J ] Most of the discussion of the Baseline Plus Project Conditions in the following sections was taken directly from the Fallon Crossings study. New onsite and offsite Project improvements and circulation recommendations were developed for the proposed Project. 5.1 Introduction This scenario adds trips generated by proposed Casamira Valley development to conditions in the Baseline Conditions. The proposed Project will include 179 single-family homes and 16 duplex units. Access to the proposed Project will be provided at North Access Road and South Access Road. These two roads will form two full-access intersections with Tassajara Road. See Figure 2. .11 I J J ] J J J 5.2 Project Trip Generation Trip Generation, 1h Edition, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), was used to estimate the number of trips generated by the proposed Project. Summarized in Table 3, the Project will generate 141 AM peak hour trips and 189 PM peak hour trips.

Trip distribution and assignment assumptions used in Baseline Plus Project Conditions are shown in detail in Figure 6. Twenty percent of all Project trips were assumed to be local within the study area; therefore, they were assigned to study area intersections as appropriate. Appendix C contains Baseline Plus Project Conditions turning movement volumes for each study intersection. 5.4 level of Service Analysis (Baseline Plus Project Conditions) Figure 7 shows the forecasted turning movement volumes at the study intersections under Baseline Plus Project Conditions. Table 4 summarizes the results of the intersection level of service analysis. Detailed calculations are contained in Appendix E.

Traffic generated by the Project results in very small changes to V/C ratios and no changes in LOS at the study intersections. No potentially significant impacts are identified for this scenario. 5.5 Recommended Off-Site Project Improvements The following Project specific off-site improvements are recommended to improve access and operations related to proposed circulation features of the Project: 1. Based on traffic safety considerations, traffic signals should be installed to control traffic at the two intersections providing access to and from the Project site. 2. Under Baseline Plus Project Conditions, for each northbound approach to intersections of Tassajara Road/North Project Access Street and Tassajara Road/South Project Access Street, one through lane and one exclusive 150-foot right-turn lane with a gO-foot taper should be provided for Project traffic entering the site. For each southbound approach, one through lane and an exclusive 150-foot left-turn lane with a gO-foot taper should be provided for Project traffic entering the site. Each westbound approach should have an exclusive left- turn lane and an exclusive 150-foot right-turn lane with a gO-foot taper for Project traffic exiting the site. Each intersection should include a protected southbound left-turn phase. 3. The traffic signals at the two Project access intersections should be coordinated to optimize traffic flow in the Project area. If possible, these intersections should be coordinated with the future intersection of Tassajara Road/Fallon Road.

Baseline Plus Project Conditions 4. According to the site plan, the two Project access intersections are approximately 625 feet apart, shorter than the minimum 750-foot spacing between signalized intersections desired by the City. The proposed spacing of these intersections should be increased closer to 750 feet if topographical restrictions permit. 5.6 Site Access, Parking, and Circulation The proposed site plan was supplied by the City and was used in the site access, parking, and circulation evaluations (Ruggeri, Jensen, Azar & Associates. "Preliminary Site Plan - Casamira Valley." September 20, 2005). As shown on Figure 2, Project access will be at two driveways on Tassajara Road. Based on review of the Project design from the proposed site plan, no significant Project impacts are expected in terms of site access and circulation. The following are design recommendations to improve site access, parking, and circulation for the Project area. Both North Project Access Street and South Project Access Street run roughly east-west and form tee-intersections to the west with Tassajara Road. Based on the proposed site plan, both streets are approximately 32 feet wide with one travel lane in each direction. Although the streets are not completely straight and level, they may induce speeding due to their width and the large distance between Tassajara Road and the majority of housing lots. Installing traffic calming devices in accordance with the City's standards would be appropriate in controlling travel speeds. According to the site plan, mid-block curb extensions ("chokers") are proposed in advance of all houses in both directions of travel. The travel way is reduced to approximately 24 feet through the chokers, which is sufficient width to accommodate emergency vehicles. If bicycle lanes are placed on streets, chokers should be designed to allow bicyclists to pass unencumbered. Signage reading "Driveways Ahead" may be posted in advance of houses to alert drivers of driveways and to serve as another means to help reduce vehicle speeds and increase safety. Assuming 12 feet each for two travel lanes on the 32-foot wide access roads, one 8-foot parking lane can be accommodated along one side of each street; however, parking would be desirable only adjacent to parcel driveways. Along the stretches of road where parking is not provided, the wide roadway could induce speeding. An alternative lane configuration would be 12 feet each for two travel lanes with 4-foot bicycle lanes on each side; however, grades greater than 10 percent would likely discourage most riders from using provided bicycle lanes. If speeding is observed along the Project access roads, additional traffic calming measures with the chokers could help maintain appropriate speeds. Narrowing the travel lanes to 11 feet could help reduce travel speeds. Seventeen homes (Lots 1-17) will front North Project Access Street before the first connector street between North Project Access Street and South Project Access Street. Seven homes (Lots 18-24) will front South Project Access Street before this first connector street. These homes will be situated on horizontal and vertical curves that may reduce stopping sight distance to driveways. Minimum sight distances and other roadway geometry issues should be provided based on the City's design standards and verified during the review process. According to the site plan, roads providing access to Lots 37-186 on the eastern side of the Project site will widen to approximately 36 feet. This width is sufficient to accommodate emergency vehicle access. If 8-foot parking lanes are provided on both sides of the streets, the remaining 20 feet of travel way should be sufficient to allow opposing vehicles to pass, given the expected low volumes on the streets. The minimum distance between all driveways should be 20 feet to allow for one parking space.

Buildout Conditions 6 BUILDOUT CONDITIONS This scenario adds traffic from buildout Projects in Dublin, Pleasanton and Dougherty Valley, to the Baseline Plus Project Conditions. Buildout Conditions are based on local general plans and expected to be in place in Year 2025. Most of the discussion and conditions were taken from the Fallon Crossings traffic study. 6.1 Introduction City staff provided a list of buildout Projects as shown in Table C3 of Appendix C. AIl of these land uses are included in the new DTDM. The DTDM was used to forecast traffic volumes under Buildout Conditions (Year 2025). 6.2 Buildout Roadway Improvements Additional roadway improvements beyond those discussed previously in this report are planned within the study area and are assumed in the Buildout Conditions analysis. They include the following: Dublin Bou/evardlTassajara Road Capacity Improvements - Addition of two westbound left-turn lanes, one through lane and one right-turn lane; two northbound through lanes; one eastbound through lane; and one southbound left-turn lane. Some of these improvements have been constructed, but not open to traffic (Eastern Dublin TIF improvement). Scarlett Drive Extension - Extension of Scarlett Drive from Dublin Boulevard north to Dougherty Road and associated intersection improvements at Dublin Boulevard/Scarlett Drive and Dougherty Road/Scarlett Drive (Eastern Dublin TIF improvement). Dublin Bou/evard/Hacienda Drive Capacity Improvements - Addition of one westbound right-turn lane and conversion of a northbound right-turn lane to a third through lane (Eastern Dublin T1F improvement). Hacienda Drive/I-S8D Westbound Off-ramp Capacity Improvements - Widening of the northbound Hacienda overpass to four lanes to accommodate an exclusive lane leading to the 1-580 westbound loop on-ramp. Addition of one shared right/left-turn lane on the off-ramp approach (Eastern Dublin T/F improvement). Hacienda Drive//-58D Eastbound off-ramp capacity improvement - Addition of one shared right/left- turn lane on the off-ramp approach (Eastern Dublin TIF improvement). Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road Capacity Improvement - Addition of ultimate improvements as identified on pages 158, 159 and 167 of the Transit Center Draft EIR and page 3.6-17 of the East Dublin Properties Draft Supplemental EIR. Both EIRs were certified in connection with related Project approvals. These improvements are expected to occur with the full development of the Transit Center Project (Eastern Dublin T1F Improvement). Under this scenario, Dublin Boulevard (six lanes) is assumed to be extended to North Canyons Parkway in Livermore, and Central Parkway (two or four lanes) is assumed to be extended to east of Fallon Road. Phase II Fallon Road interchange improvements are also assumed to be in place for Buildout Conditions.

'A Traffic Study for the Proposed Fallon Crossings Development' September 28, 2005 for Intersection ID 1-12. Under the Buildout Conditions, operations at the two Project access intersections are expected to be acceptable. The intersections of Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard and Santa Rita Road/I-580 Eastbound Ramps-Pimlico Drive are expected to operate unacceptably at LOS E during the PM peak hour, as described below. Cumulative Imoact 1 The Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection would operate at LOS E (v/e = 0.93) during the PM peak hour under Buildout Conditions (including the Project). This LOS represents a significant cumulative impact. Mitiqation Measure 1 Improvements at the Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road intersection are included in the Eastern Dublin Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) program. The Project is required to make its fair share payment of impact fees for these improvements. The Project developer shall advance to the City applicable monies for acquisition of right-of-way and construction of the improvements assumed in this study for the intersection of Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road: The amount of money advanced to the City shall be based on the developer's fair share of the deficit (spread over those Projects that are required to make up the deficit) between funds available to the City from Category 2 Eastern Dublin TIF funds and the estimated cost of acquiring the right-of-way and constructing the improvements. The City will provide credit for Casamira Valley Residential Development Final Traffic Report July 17, 2006 Page 29 11""1-_ ~ Kimley-Hom IIIII...J ~ and Associates, Inc. Buildout Conditions Category 2 Eastern Dublin TIF to the developer for any advance of monies made for the improvements planned for the Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road intersection. Additional improvements to improve the LOS at the Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection to an acceptable level (LOS D or better) under Buildout Conditions would require adding a fourth northbound left-turn lane on Dougherty Road. Allowing four lanes of traffic to perform a left-turn movement simultaneously would raise major concerns regarding the safety of such an operation. Moreover, additional improvements to reduce traffic impacts at this intersection are not feasible given the physical constraints at the intersection. On a periodic basis, the City should monitor the operations of Dougherty RoadlDublin Boulevard, as well as other intersections at the 1-580 interchanges, during the PM peak hour. Level of service analysis for this intersection should be updated as forecasted peak hour volumes become available. Therefore, the impact at the Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection under Buildout Conditions remains a significant cumulative impact. Cumulative Impact 2 The Santa Ritall-580 Eastbound Ramps intersection would operate at LOS E (V/C = 0.95) during the PM peak hour under Buildout Conditions (including the Project). This LOS represents a significant cumulative impact. Widening the eastbound off-ramp approach to include three left turn lanes, one through lane. and one free right turn lane at the intersection of Santa Rita Road/I-580 Eastbound Off-Ramps-Pimlico Drive is expected to improve the intersection level of service to LOS D during the PM peak hour. Mitiaation Measure 2 The Project developer shall contribute a pro-rata share of the cost to improve the intersection of Santa Rita Road/I-580 Eastbound Off-Ramp-Pimlico Drive to include a third left-turn lane for the eastbound off-ramp approach at this intersection and other downstream improvements including modifications to the striping on the northbound lanes of the Tassajara Road/I-580 overpass to accept traffic from the third left-turn lane and maintain three northbound through lanes at the Tassajara Road/I-580 Westbound Ramps intersection. The current Eastern Dublin TIF program does not include this improvement; however. the program will be amended in 2006 to include this improvement. With this improvement, the impact at the Santa Ritall-580 Eastbound Ramps intersection under Buildout Conditions will be reduced to a less-than- significant level.

Roadway Segment Analysis 7 ROADWAY SEGMENT ANALYSIS Roadway segment analysis was conducted to determine the number of through lanes that would be needed to have various roadway segments operate at acceptable levels of service for all study scenarios. Existing ADT and Buildout ADT were obtained from the Fallon Crossings report. In general, ADT volumes for existing and future scenarios were estimated by assuming that the PM peak hour volumes were equivalent to 10 percent of daily volumes. The daily trips from the proposed Project are based on the appropriate ITE daily trip rate. Table 6 presents the ADT on Tassajara Road (where the majority of the Project trips are expected to travel) under Existing, Baseline, Baseline Plus Project, and Buildout Conditions.

The projected ADT for the segment of Tassajara Road between Fallon Road and the County Limit is 13,760 vpd under Baseline Plus Project Conditions. This volume approaches the 15,000 vpd maximum threshold standard for two-lane roadways. Because the Casamira Valley Project is located directly adjacent to this roadway segment and will contribute to the projected ADT on this segment, the Casamira Valley Project should construct this widening. 2. The projected ADT for the segment of Tassajara Road between Northern Access for Dublin Ranch West and Fallon Road is 14,610 vpd under Baseline Plus Project Conditions. This volume approaches the 15,000 vpd maximum threshold standard for two-lane roadways. The Fallon Crossings report recommended that the Fallon Crossings developers widen this roadway segment from two lanes to four lanes. Because the Casamira Valley Project will contribute to the projected ADT on this segment, the Casamira Valley Project should construct this widening in the event that this Project is developed prior to the Fallon Crossings Project.

The projected ADT for the segment of Tassajara Road between North Dublin Ranch Drive and Northern Access for Dublin Ranch West is 18,630 vpd under Baseline Conditions and 20,100 vpd under Baseline Plus Project Conditions. These volumes exceed the 15,000 vpd maximum threshold standard for two-lane roadways. The Dublin Ranch West report recommended that the Dublin Ranch West developers widen this roadway segment from two lanes to four lanes. Because the Casamira Valley Project will contribute to the projected ADT on this segment, the Casamira Valley Project should construct this widening in the event that this Project is developed prior to the Dublin Ranch West Project.

Freeway Analysis 8 FREEWAY ANALYSIS Buildout volumes with the proposed Project were taken directly from the Fallon Crossings report. Trips generated by the Casamira Valley Project were subtracted from these buildout volumes to determine freeway volumes without the proposed Project. Evaluation of freeway levels of service is a different process than intersection levels of service. Level of service for freeways is based upon peak hour traffic volumes (number of passenger cars per hour). In practice as in theory, volume, density and speed are directly correlated, and the analyst can calculate anyone of these factors knowing the other two. Traffic flow is used as the basis for freeway levels of service and for calculating the impacts of the Project on 1-580 and 1-680 operations in 2030. Based on Caltrans guidelines, Year 2030 is used for this freeway analysis under future traffic conditions. The forecasts for Year 2030 conditions were derived by applying a straight-line increase of 10 percent to the forecasted volumes for the Year 2025 conditions. The 10 percent increase is based on an assumed growth rate of two percent per year for a five-year period. This figure was derived by examining both past and projected growth rates along the 1-580 corridor. For the period 1994 to 2004 annual traffic increases on 1-580 at the Project site were 2.47 percent, based on annual count information available from Caltrans. There is a 2.13 percent annual growth rate in the 1-580 corridor between 2003 (measured counts) and 2025 (CCTA model). Two percent was selected for the next five years (2025 to 2030) based on the premises that the rate of growth is slightly declining and the 1- 580 corridor is experiencing increasing levels of congestion. The Project trips were added to the forecasted volumes to estimate the Year 2030 Plus Project volumes. Table 7 summarizes the forecasted volumes and expected levels of service for two scenarios in 2030: conditions without the Project and conditions with the Project. Traffic from development in Eastern Dublin was identified as a significant unavoidable cumulative impact on Interstate-580 in the Eastern Dublin EIR (Impacts 3.3/E and 3.3/B). Even without the proposed Project, the study mainline segments along 1-580 and 1-680 in the vicinity of the Project site would operate unacceptably under Year 2030 conditions. The addition of the Project trips to these freeway segments would be considered a significant unavoidable cumulative impact. The Project is required to pay for its proportionate share of impacts to 1-580 and 1-680, by payment of TVfD Fees to construct planned freeway improvements, including HOV lanes, auxiliary lanes, and interchange improvements. The Project will also pay for its proportionate share toward public transportation improvements to help reduce traffic on the freeways and other roadways in the Tri- Valley Area, by payment of the TVfD Fee; two of the improvements to be funded by the TVfD Fees are the West Dublin BART Station and the Express Bus Service from Livermore to the East Dublin BART station. The Project's contribution of additional traffic to local freeways would be consistent with what was originally analyzed in the Eastern Dublin EIR, since the number of trips that would be generated from the proposed development is consistent with the approved General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. No additional impact beyond the analyses of the Eastern Dublin EIR or subsequent supplemental EIRs is identified.

Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions 9 BASELINE PLUS PROJECT ALTERNATIVE ANALYSIS Developers of the Casamira Valley Residential Project submitted a request to the City of Dublin to study an alternative site plan and land use (the "Project alternative"). The Project alternative would include 326 attached town homes to be built on the Project site. The City has requested that Kimley- Horn identify impacts to transportation and recommend Project improvements for the proposed Project alternative. 9.1 Introduction This scenario adds trips generated by the proposed Casamira Valley Project alternative to conditions in the Baseline Conditions presented in Chapter 4. 9.2 Project Trip Generation Trip Generation, -jh Edition, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), was used to estimate the number of trips generated by the proposed Project alternative. Summarized in Table 8, the Project alternative will generate 143 AM peak hour trips and 170 PM peak hour trips. By comparison, the original proposed Project will generate 141 AM peak hour trips and 189 PM peak hour trips.

Trip distribution and assignment assumptions used in Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions are shown in detail in Figure 10. Appendix C contains turning movement volumes under Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions for each study intersection. 9.4 Level of Service Analysis (Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions) Figure 11 shows the forecasted turning movement volumes at the study intersections under the Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions. Table 9 summarizes the results of the intersection level of service analysis. Detailed calculations are contained in Appendix F. The lane geometry and planned roadway improvements for this scenario would be the same as those described for Baseline Conditions. The lane geometry assumptions and intersection control at the study intersections are provided in Figure C1 of Appendix C.

Buildout With Project Alternative Conditions are based on local general plans and expected to be in place in Year 2025. 10.1 Introduction City staff provided a list of buildout Projects as shown in Table C3 of Appendix C. All of these land uses are included in the new DTDM. The DTDM was used to forecast traffic volumes under Buildout Conditions (Year 2025), which included more conservative trip generation assumptions for the Moller property than the proposed Project alternative. 10.2 Buildout Roadway Improvements The same additional roadway improvements presented in Chapter 6 are assumed for the Buildout With Project Alternative Conditions. 10.3 Level of Service Analysis (Buildout With Project Alternative Conditions) The proposed Project alternative will generate 143 AM peak hour trips and 170 PM peak hour trips. By comparison, the original proposed Project will generate 141 AM peak hour trips and 189 PM peak hour trips. Because the Project alternative will generate nearly the same number of trips as the original proposed Project, the LOS analysis results presented in Chapter 6 are applicable to Buildout With Project Alternative Conditions. The proposed Project alternative is expected to have the same impacts to intersections as the original proposed Project; therefore, the mitigation measures discussed in Chapter 6 are recommended under Buildout With Project Alternative Conditions, - I I I I I I I- I I I I I I I I I I I ~-_n Kimley-Hom ~ U and Associates, Inc.

Conclusions 13 CONCLUSIONS The following points summarize the traffic impacts outlined above resulting from the proposed Casamira Valley development: . The proposed Project is expected to generate 141 AM peak-hour trips and 189 PM peak-hour trips. . Because the Project is consistent with the City of Dublin General Plan, it is not expected to generate more AM or PM peak hour trips than the City's General Plan. As a result, no additional traffic impact analysis of the Project is required by the Alameda County Congestion Management Agency (ACCMA) to satisfy the Land Use Analysis Program of the Alameda County Congestion Management Program (CMP), . Currently, all existing study intersections operate at acceptable levels of service. . All study intersections are expected to continue to operate acceptably under Baseline Conditions. . All study intersections are expected to operate acceptably under Baseline Plus Project Conditions, . Under Buildout Conditions, the intersections of Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard and Santa Rita Road/I-S80 Eastbound Off-Ramp are expected to operate unacceptably during the PM peak hour, as described below. . The proposed Project alternative is expected to generate 143 AM peak-hour trips and 170 PM peak-hour trips. The Project alternative is expected to have the same impacts to intersections, roadway segments, and freeway segments as the original proposed Project. No additional traffic impact analysis of the Project alternative is required by ACCMA. Cumulative Imoacts and Mitiaations Required mitigation measures for Buildout and Buildout With Project Alternative Conditions, as included in the Fallon Crossings report, are described below. All references to the "Project" include the original proposed Project and the Project alternative, No additional mitigations are required as part of the analysis for the Casamira Valley Project. 1. The Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection would operate at LOS E (V/C = 0.93) during the PM peak hour under Buildout Conditions (including the Project), This LOS represents a significant cumulative impact. Mitigation Measure 1. Improvements at the Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road intersection are included in the Eastern Dublin Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) program. The Project is required to make its fair share payment of impact fees for these improvements. The Project developer shall advance to the City applicable monies for acquisition of right-of-way and construction of the improvements assumed in this study for the intersection of Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road. The amount of money advanced to the City shall be based on the developer's fair share of the deficit (spread over those Projects that are required to make up the deficit) between funds available to the City from Category 2 Eastern Dublin TIF funds and the estimated cost of acquiring the Casamira Valley Residential Development Final Traffic Report July 17, 2006 Page 45 ~-_r1I Kimley-Hom ~ ~ and Associates, Inc. Conclusions right-of-way and constructing the improvements. The City will provide credit for Category 2 Eastern Dublin TIF to the developer for any advance of monies made for the improvements planned for the Dublin Boulevard/Dougherty Road intersection. Additional improvements to improve the LOS at the Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection to an acceptable level (LOS D or better) under Buildout Conditions would require adding a fourth northbound left turn lane on Dougherty Road. Allowing four lanes of traffic to perform a left turn movement simultaneously would raise major concerns regarding the safety of such an operation. Moreover, additional improvements to reduce traffic impacts at this intersection are not feasible given the physical constraints at the intersection. On a periodic basis, the City should monitor the operations of Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard, as well as other intersections at the 1-580 interchanges, during the PM peak hour. Level of service analysis for this intersection should be updated as forecasted peak hour volumes become available. Therefore, the impact at the Dougherty Road/Dublin Boulevard intersection under Buildout Conditions remains a significant cumulative impact. 2. The Santa Ritall-580 Eastbound Ramps intersection would operate at LOS E 01/C = 0.95) during the PM peak hour under Buildout Conditions (including the Project), This LOS represents a significant cumulative impact. Adding a third left turn lane for the eastbound off-ramp approach at the intersection of Santa Rita Road/I-580 Eastbound Ramps is expected to improve the intersection level of service to LOS D during the PM peak hour under Buildout Conditions. Mitigation Measure 2. The Project developer shall contribute a pro-rata share of the cost to improve the intersection of Santa Rita Roadll-580 Eastbound Off-Ramp-Pimlico Drive to include a third left-turn lane for the eastbound off-ramp approach at this intersection and other downstream improvements including modifications to the striping on the northbound lanes of the Tassajara Road/I-580 overpass to accept traffic from the third left-turn lane and maintain three northbound through lanes at the Tassajara Roadll-580 Westbound Ramps intersection. The current Eastern Dublin TIF program does not include this improvement; however, the program will be amended in 2006 to include this improvement. With this improvement, the impact at the Santa Rita/I-580 Eastbound Ramps intersection under Buildout Conditions will be reduced to a less-than-significant level. 3, With the proposed Project traffic added to Year 2030 No Project mainline freeway volumes, projected LOS on 1-580 and 1-680 would remain unchanged, However, with a projected LOS F on various segments of 1-580 and 1-680, Project trips would be adding to an already deficient condition. These specific segments would not meet the ACCMA monitoring standard of LOS E during the AM or PM peak hour. This is considered a significant cumulative impact. Although efficiency improvements (such as HOV Lanes) and expanded pUblic transportation could be added in the 1-580 corridor, little or no additional freeway capacity for single- occupant vehicles is planned, Actions to encourage alternative travel modes include advocating HOV lanes on 1-580, extending BART to Livermore, implementing the 1-580 Smart Corridor approach (including adaptive signal timing, transit priority systems, incident management, and ramp metering), and supporting other major investments in transit. In addition, the City of Dublin plans to construct the Dublin Boulevard extension to North Canyons Parkway in Livermore as a six-lane parallel arterial that will provide additional lane capacity along the 1-580 corridor.

Conclusions Mitigation Measure 3. The Project is required to pay the Tri-Valley Transportation Development (TVTD) Fee for its proportionate share of 1-580 and 1-680 improvements, including HOV lanes, auxiliary lanes, and interchange improvements. The Project will also pay its proportionate share toward public transportation improvements (e.g., West Dublin BART Station and Express Bus Service from Livermore to East Dublin BART Station) by payment of the TVTD Fee. Even though the above improvements will ameliorate traffic conditions on 1-580 and 1-680 in the Tri-Valley, they will not mitigate the contribution of projected traffic demand from the Project on these freeways to a less-than-significant level. Therefore, the impact on the freeway system of 1-580 and 1-680 in the Project area remains a significant, unavoidable cumulative impact, and no additional impact beyond the analyses of the Eastern Dublin EIR or subsequent supplemental EIRs is identified. Recommended Proiect Improvements The following sections present measures that are not required as CEQA mitigations, but will improve the Project's circulation and access and assure compliance with applicable City design and operation standards and policies. ' Off-Site Project Improvements 1, Based on traffic safety considerations, traffic signals should be installed to control traffic at the two intersections providing access to and from the Project site. 2. Under Baseline Plus Project Conditions, for each northbound approach to intersections of Tassajara Road/North Project Access Street and Tassajara Road/South Project Access Street, one through lane and one exclusive 150-foot right-turn lane with a gO-foot taper should be provided for Project traffic entering the site. For each southbound approach, one through lane and an exclusive 150-foot left-turn lane with a gO-foot taper should be provided for Project traffic entering the site. Each westbound approach should have an exclusive left- turn lane and an exclusive 150-foot right-turn lane with a gO-foot taper for Project traffic exiting the site, Each intersection should be controlled with a protected southbound left-turn phase, 3, The traffic signals at the two Project access intersections should be coordinated to optimize traffic flow in the Project area. If possible, these intersections should be coordinated with the future intersection of Tassajara Road/Fallon Road. 4, According to the site plan, the two Project access intersections are approximately 625 feet apart, shorter than the minimum 750-foot spacing between signalized intersections desired by the City, The proposed spacing of these intersections should be increased closer to 750 feet if topographical restrictions permit. 5, The projected average daily traffic (ADT) for the segment of Tassajara Road between Fallon Road and the County Limit is 13,760 vehicles per day (vpd) and 13,860 vpd under Baseline Plus Project Conditions and Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions, respectively, These volumes approach the 15,000 vpd maximum threshold standard for two-lane roadways, Because the Casamira Valley Project is directly adjacent to this roadway segment and will contribute to the projected ADT on this segment, the Casamira Valley Project should construct this widening, Casamira Valley Residential Development Final Traffic Report July 17, 2006 Page 47 Casamira Valley Residential Development Final Traffic Report July 17, 2006 Page 48 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I ......-J__ n KimIey-Hom ~ U and Associates, Inc. Conclusions 6. The projected ADT for the segment of Tassajara Road between Northern Access for Dublin Ranch West and Fallon Road is 14,610 vpd and 14,690 vpd under Baseline Plus Project Conditions and Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions, respectively. These volumes approach the 15,000 vpd maximum threshold standard for two-lane roadways, The Fallon Crossings report recommended that the Fallon Crossings developers widen this roadway segment from two lanes to four lanes, Because the Casamira Valley Project will contribute to the projected ADT on this segment, the Casamira Valley Project should construct this widening in the event that this Project or Project Alternative is developed prior to the Fallon Crossings Project. 7, The projected ADT for the segment of Tassajara Road between North Dublin Ranch Drive and Northern Access for Dublin Ranch West is 18,630 vpd under Baseline Conditions. The projected ADT is 20,100 vpd and 20,180 vpd under Baseline Plus Project Conditions and Baseline Plus Project Alternative Conditions, respectively. These volumes exceed the 15,000 vpd maximum threshold standard for two-lane roadways. The Dublin Ranch West report recommended that the Dublin Ranch West developers widen this roadway segment from two lanes to four lanes. Because the Casamira Valley Project will contribute to the projected ADT on this segment, the Casamira Valley Project should construct this widening in the event that this Project or Project Alternative is developed prior to the Dublin Ranch West Project. On-Site Project Improvements 1. If bicycle lanes are placed on streets, chokers should be designed to allow bicyclists to pass unencumbered. Signage reading "Driveways Ahead" may be posted in advance of houses to alert drivers of driveways to serve as another means to help reduce vehicle speeds and increase safety, 2. If speeding is observed along the Project access roads, additional traffic calming measures to the chokers could help maintain appropriate speeds. Narrowing the travel lanes to 11 feet could help reduce travel speeds. 3, Seventeen homes (Lots 1-17) will front North Project Access Street before the first connector street between North Project Access Street and South Project Access Street. Seven homes (Lots 18-24) will front South Project Access Street before this first connector street. These homes will be situated on horizontal and vertical curves that may reduce stopping sight distance to driveways, Minimum sight distances and other roadway geometry issues should be provided based on the City's design standards and verified during the review process. 4, The minimum distance between all driveways should be 20 feet to allow for one parking space. The annexation request for the proposed Project includes the Moller property and additional property adjacent to the west (Tipper and Vargas properties), The Dublin Travel Demand Model used to estimate traffic conditions in the study area under Year 2025 Buildout Conditions included trips generated by the Tipper and Vargas properties in accordance with the City of Dublin General Plan. As such, traffic impacts associated with the annexation Project included future development of all three properties that will be subject to the annexation (Moller, Tipper, and Vargas properties). Therefore, no additional traffic impacts or mitigations are required for the annexation Project beyond those described in this study for the Casamira Valley Project.

It is identical to the Orcul1a' 212 Planning , methodology ,except that the lane capacity has been increased from 1S00 vph to between 16S0 to 1800 vph based on .'saturation flow measurements taken at four intersections in Contra Costa CountY. (See folloWing Table 9 from the Technical Procedures Manual) on average, sataration flow rates for left-turn. lanes were wer ten percent lower than for through laneS. However, insufficient data was collected to provide statistical accuracy foz: the averages. Thus, saturation flow rates for through lanes are equ8J. to those for turn lanes. 1bis methodology dete1'Il$es the critical movement for each phase of traffic. It then sums the critical vohune-to-capacity ratio by phase to determine the intersection volum~to-capacity ratio. Circular 212, on the other hand, sums the critical movement'volumes themselves and. compares them, to the total capacity of the intersection to detem1ine, in effect, the volume-to-capacity ratio of the intersection as a whole. Level of Service The volume-to-capacity iatio is related ,to level of service (LOS). The following level of service for'Sig11Ali7.ed Intersections depicts the relationship between the volt1,JiJ.~to-capacity ratio and level of service. An intersection operating at capacity would operate at LOS E. Level of Service F is not possible for existing conQitioDS, but can be forecasted for future conditions when volume projections exceed existing capacities: Input Data The intemection capacity ,work sheets use a code to identify clifferem lane configUrations.

INTRODUCTION'; PART A In this section a methOdology for analyzing capacity and level of service of two-way stop-controlled (l'WSC) intersections is presented. II. METHODOLOGY,- PART A Capacity analysis at TWSC intersections depends on a clear description and understanding of the interaction of drivers on the minor or stop-controlled approach with drivers on the major street Both gap acceptance and empirical models have been developed to describe this interaction. Procedures described in this chapter rely on a gap acceptance model developed and refined in Gennany (1). The concepts from this model are described in Chapter 10. Exhibit 17-1 illustrates input to and the basic computation order of the method described in this chapter. LEVEL-OF-5ERViCE CRITERIA Level of service (LOS) for a TWSC intersection is determined by the computed or measUred control delay and is defined for each minor movement. LOS is not defined for the intersection as a whole. LOS criteria are given in Exhibit 17-2. , Both theoretical and empirical approaches have been used roamveatamethodorogy LOS is not defined for the overall intersection Highway Capacity Manua/2000 The LOS criteria for TWSC intersections are somewhat different from the criteria used in Chapter 1'6 for signalized intersections primarily because different transportation facilities create different driver perceptions. The expectation is that a signalized ' intersection is designed to carry higher traffic volumes and experience greater delay than an un signalized intersection. LOS thresholds differ ;rom those for signalized intersections to reflect different driver expectations Highway Capacity Manual 2000 Chapter 17. Unsignalized Intersections Methodology.

Saturday trip rates for Townhouse (use 231) were based on the ratio of Saturday peak to PM peak for use 230, multiplied by the PM peak rate for use 231. For Apartment (use 220), average Saturday trip rates were used. 14 AM, PM and daily trip rates were based on Final Focused Traffic Analysis for the Proposed San Ramon Village Plaza Development, June 10,2003. Saturday trip rates for Townhouse (use 231) were based on the ratio of Saturday peak to PM peak for use 230, multiplied by the PM peak rate for use 231. 15 Trip generation based on Final Report: IKEA Retail Center Transportation Study, Dublin, California, August 2003. 16 AM, PM, and daily trip rates are based on Focused Traffic Circulation Analysis for the Proposed Cisco Systems Projects, City of Dublin, May 21 ,2001. Saturday trip rates are average rates for General Office Building (use 710) from the ITE Trip Generation, 6th Edition, according to the guiding principles stated in the Trip Generation Handbook, October 1998. 17 Net new trips for AM, PM, and daily based on Consultant's Report on the Transportation Impact for the Proposed Village Parkway, Downtown Core, and West BART Station Specific Plans, City of Dublin. Net new trips were adjusted proportionately in some cases to reflect current projections. Assumed 15% reduction in office trips due to proximity to the West Dublin BART station. Also assumed 34% pass-by trips for commercial during the PM peak. Used ratio of Saturday rates to PM rates from ITE Trip Generation and applied to PM net new trips to determine Saturday net new trips. Residential trips include a 30% reduction based on proximity to the BART Station as specified in the above report. Business Hotel and Quality Restaurant trips are based on ITE trip rates for the Orix Development. 18 Public/semi public area is assumed to be a church based on information provided by the City. The floor/area ratio assumed is 0.15 based on survey of a few churches in Fremont, CA. 19 Only 50% of high school trips will be external trips, the rest will be internal to the development. ,; 20 ITE Trip Generation for Corporate Headquarters Building (714) was used for rates because government office building (730) only has one observation and corporate headquarters building is a single tenant office building similar to government office building. Saturday trip rates were based on the ratio of PM average rate for corporate headquarters building to PM average rate for general office building, multiplied by the Saturday peak rate for generai office building. 21 PM trip rate is based on Consultant's Report on the Transportation and Parking Impacts for the Proposed Shamrock Marketplace Shopping Center Expansion, September 8, 2000. AM, Saturday, and daily trip rates based on ITE Trip Generation 6th ed. Land Use Database_Update_060506.xls Source: TKJM Transportation Consultants.

Trip rates are based on average rates from the ITE Trip Generation, 6th Edition. 34 Trip rates are based on ITE rates for Electronic Superstore (863). Saturday trip rates were derived by applying the Saturday/PM peak ratio for Home Improvement Superstore (862) to the PM peak rate for Electronic Superstore.
