Request for Rezoning - PA 83-002 Motor Lodge

SURROUNDING ZONING AND LAND USE:
SITE/ZONING HISTORY:
S-421 - The Alameda County Planning Director
approved a Site Development Plan for a 93-unit
motel and restaurant (Howard Johnson Motor Lodge)
- March 15, 1972.
S-595X and C-3206 - In April, 1977, approval was
granted to add 48 units to the motel.
S-777X and C-3787 - In May, 1980, an additional 22
units were approved for the Motor Lodge.
S-600 - A Site Development Plan for the Willow
Tree Restaurant was approved by the Alameda County
Planning Director on June 23, 1977.
S-776 and C-3805 - Liberty House received approval
to add a hardware and garden center on August 20,
1980.
APPLICABLE REGULATIONS:
Sections 8-48.0 to 8-48.9 of the Zoning Ordinance
describes the basic land use regulations that
apply to (C-l) Retail Commercial Zones. Hotels
are permitted as Conditional Uses (8-48.2). Site
Development Review would be required (8-48.4 and
8-95.0 to 8-95.8).
(H-l) Highway Commercial zoning regulations are
contained in Sections 8-45.0 to 8-45.9
(M-l) Light Industrial zoning regulations are
contained in Sections 8-51.0 to 8-51.10.
Conditional Use Permit requirements are covered by
Section 8.94.0 to 8-94.7.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The proposed zoning change was deemed to
have no significant environmental impacts associated with
it. A Negative Declaration was prepared on February 15,
1983 - See Attachment #1.
NOTIFICATION: Public Notice of the March 7, 1983, hearing, was
published in the Tri-Valley Herald and mailed to adjacent
property owners.
ANALYSIS:
The applicant is requesting that a .9 acre portion of the
Liberty House property be separated from that land, and that the
new parcel be rezoned from M-l to C-l. The request is also to
rezone the existing Howard Johnson Motor Lodge site from its
present H-l designation to C-l. The applicant expects to add
about 80 rooms to the existing motel and needs the .9 acre parcel
for parking and possibly a recreational use.
Should the rezoning be granted, other retail and business uses
could occupy both sites. The manner in which the new development
occurs is governed by the Site Development Review process which,
in essence, will assure that new construction is safe, aesthetic,
functional, and protective of adjacent developments from traffic,
engineering, and design perspectives.
The central question is: Is the proposed rezoning appropriate
for the site, and, will it create a net benefit to the City?
The surrounding land uses are retail and business uses: a bowling
alley, restaurant, shops and a warehouse. Two sides of the
subject property are adjacent to a flood control channel and
freeway.
The site is quite visible from the freeway.
will be assessed as to its aesthetic impact
assure that the site continues to present a
Dublin, and to those passing by.
Future construction
from the freeway, to
positive image to
The site is partially subject to noise of sufficient magnitude
that, were new construction to occur within the areas with the
highest noise rating, the new construction would need to be
designed to limit the noise internal to the buildings. The noise
level in 1977 was rated at above 65dbA. Hotel and residential
noise levels from exterior sources should be limited to 45dbA
interior to the buildings. Such a reduction is possible with
standard construction techniques, should the propsed rooms be ln
the 65+dbA areas.
Alameda County Flood Control has requested that they review
future plans, and that surface runoff, not be permitted to enter
the existing channel. These requests can be complied with when
development occurs. Changing the zoning on the property will
not, in itself, lead to any drainage problems.
FINDINGS:
1. The City of Dublin is in the process of preparing and
adopting a general plan.
2. There is a reasonable probability that the proposed rezoning
will be consistent with the future general plan.
3. There is little or no probability that the rezoning will be
a detriment to, or interfere with the future general plan,
should the new zoning ultimately be inconsistent with the
future general plan,
4. The rezoning will not have a significant environmental
impact.
5. The rezoning is appropriate for the subject properties in
terms of being compatible to existing and permitted land
uses, transportation, and service facilities.
6. The rezoning will not have substantial adverse effects on
health or safety or be substantially detrimental to the
public welfare, or be injurious to property or public
improvements.
PRE-HEARING RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission should recommend to the City
Council:
1) to adopt the Negative Declaration;
2) to approve the rezoning request;
3) to direct the City Engineer to adjust the lot line on the
.9 ac. parcel to coincide with the Zoning boundary.
The Planning Commission should recommend that the City Council
make findings as listed above, under FINDINGS.

other retail uses.
FINDINGS: The project will not have a significant effect on the
environment.
INITIAL STUDY: The Initial Study is attached with a brief
discussion of the following environmental components:
Noise Impact
Visual Impact
MITIGATION MEASURES: Acoustic insulation and air conditioning
within 65+dbA CNEL noise contours for buildings.
Site Development Review of any new construction.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS ATTACHED TO INTERIM ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
FORM
1.6 The site is adjacent to a Flood Control channel. Should it
overflow some flooding might occur. The chance of this occuring
is slight, however.
2.1 With the close proximity of Highway 580, some potential for
short term air pollution exists near the Highway, but no data is
available.
3.6 No soils report is available so we can not assess the
subsurface conditions.
4.2 There are some mature trees within landscape areas. New
construction could affect them, but that impact would be slight.
5.7 Some additional police service might be needed to provide
security for the motel.
6.2 Circulation patterns of the new construction are not known
at this time.

thus, depending upon the use and location of new construction,
some accoustic insulation may be required.
10.1 The property is quite visible from Highway 580 and San
Valley Blvd. Buildings on site will also view these roads.
views to and from the site should be considered during site
development review.

Dublin. CA 94568
Dear Members of the Planning Commission.
Motor Lodge Associates. the owner of the Howard Johnson Motor Lodge and
Spa. is purchasing adjcent property directly between the Willow Restaurant and
1-580.
It is our intention to add. approximately 80 rooms to the Motor Lodge. We
hope to be able to add directly to the existing building. If this can be done.
the acquired property will be used solely for parking with possibly some
recreation facilities. The additional parking could also be beneficial to the
Willows Restaurant.
We can not submit a plan at this time as all the contingencies. such as
fire equipment access. have not been worked out"
We would like. also. to submit for your consideratiion a summary of parking
regulations for various cities near Dublin. It is our observation that over 50%
of cars parked in our parking area are of compact size. We have also observed
that our parking lot has never been full even while we enjoy 100% occupancy.
As parking space is directly related to the number of rooms we may add to
the lodge. we would like your guidance as to the percentage of compact car
spaces we may install. not only on the new property. but also on our existing
parking area.
Very truly yours.
