DESCRIPTION:
This specific project is comprised of 18.1 acres of residential development including 0.5 acres of open/space
landscape parcels. The project proposes 91 detached, single family units on 55' x 100' lots with a minimum of
5,500 square feet. Designated uses include single family residential, open space/landscape areas and roads.
BACKGROUND:
The Planning Commission, at their meeting of December 8, 1998, reviewed and approved the Dublin Ranch
Phase I development within the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area. This approval consisted of 8 Vesting
Tentative Tract Maps and 6 Site Development Reviews. Two neighborhoods, L-1 and L-4, received approval
of their Vesting Tentative Tract Maps but Site Design Reviews for these neighborhoods were not processed at
that time. The L-6 Neighborhood received approval ora Vesting Tentative Tract Map subsequent to the
December 8, 1998 approval. The subject of this application, Subdivision 6956; Neighborhood L-l, is before
the Planning Commission to receive approval of the Site Design Review for the single-family residential units
to be constructed on the lots previous approved.
The L-1 Neighborhood is located on the northeast side of North Dublin Ranch Drive which is the major loop
street connecting Tassajara Road to the residential developments of Phase 1 of Dublin Ranch. The project site
is bounded by openspace and the future Golf Course in Area A to the northeast, Neighborhood L-6 to the west,
the neighborhood park and elementary school across Oak Bluff Lane to the south and Neighborhood L-5 to the
east. Oak Bluff Lane forms the projects southern boundary and provides access to this neighborhood and the
L-5 Neighborhood beyond. Centex is currently constructing home on Neighborhood L-5 directly east of the
subject property. The property was graded as a part of the original grading operation for Phase I of Dublin
Ranch. Fine grading of the lots will occur at the time of building permit issuance. A Site Design review is yet

ITEM NO.
to b e processed on the L-6 Neighborhood to the west but is expected to be submitted shortly.
Parcel B, separating Lots 65 and 66, will provide fire and pedestrian access to the openspace area northeasterly
of the lots. Parcel A, adjacent to Lots 90 and 91 at the far east end of the site, begins the landscaped
openspace/stream corridor that runs along the park site and Neighborhood L-4. These parcels were reviewed
and established during the original review of the Vesting Tentative Tract Map by the Planning Commission in
December of 1998. This element of Dublin Ranch generally runs in a north/south direction and includes a 100
foot wide area planted in native shrubs and trees to replicate the drainage corridors previously existing in the
hills. A public trail is included in this Open Space area and will eventually link to a regional trail system and
the Village Center to the south.
Issues such as walls, fences and perimeter landscaping were all considered as a part of the previous approval
and will be further reviewed during the plan checking process. The application before the Plaaning
Commission is for the design of the individual residential units to be located on these previously subdivided
lots.
ANALYSIS:
Plan Description:
Brookfield Homes Bay Area, Inc. is the applicant of the proposed project to be named Chantemar. Brookfield
Homes is a developer new to Dublin. The applicant is proposing three different floor plans with various options
available. The home range from 3,500 to 3,859 square feet. All plans are two story and feature differing garage
configurations to break up the streetscape and create visual interest. The majority of the comer units are
plotted with Plan 1 's which incorporate a single story garage element for both the "front-on" and "swing-in"
garages to increase visibility and soften the edges of the comers with layering of setbacks. Formal dining
rooms, eating nooks and family rooms are included in all floor plans. Three car garages are included on all
plans with the Plan 1 and 3 offering both a front-on and a swing-in configuration. The Plan 1 locates the 2 car
garage in the front-on position while the Plan 3 locates the 1 car garage in the front-on position. The Plan 2
places the garage at the rear of the lot with a two-car door and the third car space being in tandem which further
reduces the dominance of the automobile on the streetscape. The following breakdown of square footage and
bedroom/bath configurations is provided below:
1 3,500 4+ 3 3 2
2 3,770 5+ 4 2 + I 2
TANDEM
3 3,859 6 4 3 2
As mentioned previously, the Plan 2 has the garage located to the rear of the property. The driveway passes by
the majority of the home through a porte-cochere on the B and C elevations. The inclusion of this type of a
residential unit into the product mix will take the garage from the dominant position at the front of the home
lessening the magnitude of both the paved driveway and the automobile. Neighborhoods L-2 and L-4 have
incorporated a similar plan in their products but with much smaller square footage on smaller lots. Plans 1 and
3 have either a 2 car front-on garage with third car option as a turn-in or one-car front-on garage with a two-car
turn-in configuration further downplaying the automobile on the front of the unit. Window-to-window
conflicts have been reduced by the increased sideyard setback of the Plan 2 and the need to bring the driveway
to the garage at the back of the lot or plotting the active side of one home against the passive side of the one on
2
the adjacent lot. The passive side of the adjacent home has either high windows or windows placed in such a
manner that window-to-window conflicts reduced significantly. In several instances the curvilinear streetscape
provides an opportunity to site the home on an angle increasing the side yard setback and eliminationg
window-to-window conflicts.
Architectural Style Description:
Brookfield Homes proposes for the L-1 Neighborhood of Dublin Ranch Phase I, three unique architectural
styles; the "Early California'(Spanish Colonial), "Italian Country" and "Monterey." Although each of the
developers of the single family area homes of Phase 1 of Dublin Ranch have referenced different elevation
styles for their homes, the five neighborhoods (including this one) all have common design elements that
provide and coordinated and cohesive design theme for this portion of Dublin Ranch. The overall design intent
is to emphasize the site's characteristics and strengthen the total image of this development. The diverse
building massing and plan orientation of residential units is organized to create friendly, visually pleasing
perspectives and make the L-1 Neighborhood blend with the L-5 Neighborhood to the east and the L-2
Neighborhood across North Dublin Ranch Drive to the south. Preliminary review of the homes proposed for
Neighborhood L-6 (to be submitted and reviewed by the Planning Commission at a later date) indicate
complementary architecture to take proposed by this project.
The Early California or Spanish Colonial architectural style was common in developments during
the 1920 to 1940's and has recently been seeing a resurgence. This style home encompasses simple
building forms, hip roofs, stone accents, shutters and banding.
The Italian County style has a more rustic feel will exposed rafter ends, combinations of hip and
gable roof forms with tile embellishments, turret and shed accent roofs, deeply recessed and arched
windows and wrought iron detailing for added emphasis.
Monterey architecture is reminiscent of the older estate homes in the Monterey and Carmel
neighborhoods along the Pacific Ocean. Porches on the second floor with deep roof cover and
wood detailing on the railings, rustic shutters and gable roof forms with wood fillers differentiate
the Monterey architecture from the other styles. Brick veneers and limited rafter tails further define
this architectural style.
Color and Materials:
The applicant is proposing 9 separate color schemes; 3 for each building style. Each color scheme will
incorporate a separate roof tile color that will allow for 9 different roof colors.
CONCLUSIONS:
Brookfield Homes proposal will add to the overall architectural theme already established for Phase 1 of
Dublin Ranch, blending with existing products but also accentuating the architectural styles to keep the area
diverse and interesting. Of all the lower density residential products currently under construction on Dublin
Ranch, the incorporation of units having the garage located at the rear of the lot (similar to Neighborhoods L-2
and L-4), creates a streetscape that reduces the presence of the automobile and makes the environment more
pedestrian friendly. Development of this tract will enhance Phase I and continue to provide a broad spectrum
of housing opportunities.
