square-foot single-family residence, comprised of six bedrooms; f )ur and one-half baths; a kitchen;
communal living quarters; an attached garage; and an attached casita with a bedroom, full bath, sink and
counter (Attachment 8).
Operating Characteristics
The Applicant proposes to operate a boarding house in which up to 15 people may live (12 boarders, two
caretakers and two children related to the caretakers). Conditions o ' Approval have been formulated to
specify these proposed limitations (Condition 20).
The boarders living at the Oakhurst home are foreign exchange students from Korea who attend local
private schools (such as Quarry Lane, Athenian, Valley Christian and Redwood Christian), ranging from
the 4th to the 12th grades. According to the Revised Written Statement date stamp received December 18,
2008 (Attachment 2), the children are transported to school weekday mornings and are then taken directly
to a local tutoring center in Pleasanton to study until they are transported home in the evenings. On
weekends, the children participate in organized excursions, attend church and participate in organized
sports. The children also take part in community activities and volun :eer programs. Most of the children
return home to Korea during the summer vacation, but a few children may remain with their caretaker(s).
A cook makes daily visits to the house in the early morning to prepare breakfast for the children and
leaves once the children have finished breakfast and the kitchen is clean. In addition, a cleaning service
comes to the house twice a week and a gardener comes once a week.
The City of Dublin Zoning Ordinance Section 8.12.050 states that a Conditional Use Permit is required in
order to operate a boarding house with five or more renters in a residentially zoned district. A complaint
was received by the City of Dublin on May 21, 2008 and a Code Compliance Case opened. The
complainant indicated that numerous children were living on-site arid raised concern that a school was
being run from the residence. The City's Code Enforcement Officer visited the site and determined that a
boarding house was being operated without a Conditional Use Permit with more than five renters. A
Courtesy Violation Notice was issued and a request was made to comply with City regulations until they
have obtained a Conditional Use Permit. Staff met with the Applicant's representatives to discuss the
proposal and the application process. On July 25, 2008 the Applicant submitted a Conditional Use Permit
application to allow for a boarding house and an on-site parking reduction. The Applicant has been
working cooperatively with Staff in order to see their proposal come to fruition. According to the
Applicant's representative, there are currently four boarders and one; caretaker living on-site; therefore,
they are in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance.
The Applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit to operate a boarding house in which up
to 16 people may live (12 boarders, two caretakers and two children related to the caretakers) and a
parking reduction. According to the Zoning Ordinance, review cT Conditional Use Permits for the
establishment of boarding houses is assigned to the Zoning Administrator; however, because this
application was complaint-driven, the Zoning Administrator has trar.sferred original hearing jurisdiction
to the Planning Commission for review (Zoning Ordinance Section 8.96.020 C.2 Attachment 7).
ANALYSIS:
Staff has provided the following analysis in order to assist the Planning Commission in making a
determination on the suitability of the proposed use. The proposed use has been reviewed for issues
related to parking, traffic, noise and General Plan conformance. Conditions of Approval have been
proposed, where appropriate, to ensure compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood.
Parking and Traffic
The City of Dublin Zoning Ordinance contains off-street parking requirements by use type. Pursuant to
Dublin Zoning Ordinance Section 8.76.080(B) a boarding house is required to provide two parking spaces
per dwelling plus 0.5 parking spaces per sleeping room. Based on this requirement, a total of six parking
spaces would be required for the boarding house.
2 of 5
The Dublin Zoning Ordinance Section 8.76.050(E) contains a provision that allows for a reduction in off-
street parking for an individual use. A. reduction in off-site parking may be granted if. 1) the Conditional
Use Permit findings can be made; 2) a parking study prepared by a qualified consultant analyzing the
parking demands of the proposed use and the parking demands of similar uses in similar situations
demonstrates that the required parking standards are excessive; propoie alternate parking standards which
are appropriate; and ensure that there will not be a parking deficiency; and 3) overflow parking will not
adversely affect any adjacent use.
According to the Applicant's Revised Written Statement (Attachment 2) there will be two minivans
located at the residence for the caretakers to use when transporting the children and performing other
duties. The Applicant's Traffic Data Statement (Attachment 3) states that on a typical weekday, the
children leave for school in the morning. They are picked up from school at 3 p.m., and remain at a local
tutoring center until 8 p.m. when the children are picked up and returned home. During the weekends, the
children participate in organized excursions, take part in community activities, attend church, and perform
volunteer work. As previously mentioned, a cook will make daily visits to the project site in the early
mornings, around 5:30 a.m., and leave once the children are fed and the kitchen is clean. A cleaning
service will clean the house twice per week and a gardener will perform landscape duties once per week.
Because the cook performs a daily service, he/she will be required to park in the driveway; however, the
housekeeper, gardener, tutor and other service vehicles may be parked on the street (Condition 12).
Parking Memorandums were prepared by the City of Dublin's Senior Traffic Engineer and City Engineer
which are included as Attachments 4 and 5. The study prepared by the Senior Traffic Engineer dated
October 22, 2008 concluded that, based upon the program operations provided in the Applicant's Written
Statement and the Applicant's Traffic Data Statement, and observations made when performing a Site
Visit, the amount of traffic and parking generated by the residence is comparable to that of a typical
single-family residence. After the aforementioned parking study was prepared; Staff was notified that the
boarding house has a cook who makes daily visits, a cleaning serN ice that visits twice a week, and a
gardener that comes once a week. Upon notification by the Applicant of the additional service activities
taking place on-site, the City Engineer, Mark Lander, reviewed the '?arking Memorandum. Mr. Lander
concluded that there will be additional parking needs not reflected in the initial statement provided by the
Applicant. In order to mitigate potential parking impacts associated with the proposed boarding house,
four Conditions of Approval have been provided to address parking and traffic. These conditions include:
1) limiting the number of company and personal vehicles associated with the boarding house to three at a
given time (Condition 10); 2) restricting the boarders from driving (Condition 13); 3) requiring that
Iroonet vehicles be parked in the garage and driveway (Condition 11); and 4) requiring that the cook park
on the driveway (Condition 12). Based upon the aforementioned Conditions of Approval Staff is
recommending approval of the proposed parking reduction and the findings set forth in the Resolution
(Attachment 1).
Noise
Although there may be a maximum of 16 people living on-site, noise is not anticipated to be an issue due
to the limited amount of time the children spend at home, as well as, a Condition of Approval regulating
the hours of outdoor activities (Condition 5). This Condition states that no outdoor activities shall take
place between the hours of 9 p.m. to 8 a.m., Monday through Friday, rind from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m., Saturday
and Sunday.
Conformance with General Plan
The project site has a General Plan Land Use Designation of Medium Density Residential (0.0 - 6.0
du/ac). The proposed project meets the intent of this designation because boarding houses are permitted in
Residential Zoning Districts with a Conditional Use Permit.
3 of 5
Conditional Use Permit Required Findings
To approve a Conditional Use Permit, the following findings must be made: the proposed use is
compatible with other land uses, transportation and service facilitie 3 in the vicinity; will not adversely
affect the health or safety of persons residing or working in the vicinity or be detrimental to the public
health, safety and welfare; will not be injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood; will
have adequate provisions for public access, water, sanitation, and public utilities and services to ensure
that it would not be detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare; and the site is physically suitable
for the type, density and intensity of the use and related structures be ng proposed. Staff believes that, as
conditioned, the Project is consistent with these findings as presented in the attached Resolution
(Attachment 1).
Review by City Departments
This project was reviewed by other City Departments and interested agencies. Any special requirements
have been incorporated as Conditions of Approval of the attached Resolution (Attachment 1). The
Applicant has reviewed the draft Conditions of Approval and agreed to comply with the City's
requirements.
NOTICING:
In accordance with State law, a public notice regarding this hearing was mailed to all property owners and
occupants within 300 feet of the proposed project. A public notice was also published in the Valley
Times and posted at several locations throughout the City. To date, the City has received two written
comments (Attachment 6) and several telephone calls from surrounding property owners or tenants in
objection to the current proposal.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The Project has been reviewed under the California Environmental Quality Act, (CEQA), State CEQA
Guidelines and the Dublin Environmental Guidelines, and the project has been found to be Categorically
Exempt from the CEQA according to the CEQA Guidelines Section 15303 (New Construction or
Conversion of Small Structures).
CONCLUSION:
The Conditional Use Permit process allows the City to place Conditions of Approval on the Project to
ensure that the operation of the proposed use is compatible with the surrounding uses. The proposed
project has been reviewed for issues related to operating characteristics and parking. Conditions of
Approval have been proposed where appropriate to ensure compatibility. The proposed project, as
conditioned, is consistent with the Dublin General Plan and the Dublin Zoning District in which the
project site is located and represents an appropriate use for the site. Staff does not anticipate the proposed
boarding house to adversely effect the neighborhood based on the operating characteristics and the draft
Conditions of Approval that would regulate the boarding house.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission: 1) Receive Staff presentation; 2) Open the public hearing;
3) Take testimony from the Applicant and the public; 4) Close the public hearing and deliberate; and 5)
Adopt a Resolution to operate a boarding house in which up to 16 people may live in the Planned
Development zoning district and to allow for an on-site parking reduc- ion at 3608 Oakhurst Court.

their school community.
As international students the participants in the Iroonct America program are
provided with housing, in this instance the home that is the subject of the CUP
application, and daily care is provided by guardians/caretakers. Through experience
Iroonet America has determined that a seven student to one guardian ratio is very
effective. These guardians serve as a parent and advocate away from home, living with
the children and providing each with advice, support, represe -station at the schools, and
the basics, such as ensuring that they are fed and clothed, and providing transportation to
and from school and extracurricular events. The guardians are the primary pointat= VED

contact with the schools and they participate in parent-school activities like
parent/teacher conferences and school events.
An item that sets the Iroonet America program apart from other study abroad
programs is the involvement of each child's parents and their relationship with the local
guardian. The guardians communicate with each child's parents every single day,
providing a report concerning the child and current events. Through a secure website
dedicated to the child, guardians report on the amount and type of home work that the
child has each day, upcoming events such as exams, reports, or extracurricular events,
and grades. This direct communication allows guardians to discuss issues and to seek the
advice, counsel, and, if necessary, the permission of the parents in responding to requests
from or relating to the child.
3608 Oakhurst Court
The Oakhurst residence that is the subject of his applicmtion is a 7 bedroom, 3,793
square foot home. The CUP application anticipates 12 children residing at the home.
With the exception of a daily morning visit from a cook, the activities at the home
will be essentially identical to a large family in the neighborhood. On a typical weekday,
the schedule would be as follows: A hired cook would arrive between 5:30 and 6 a.m. to
prepare breakfast for the children. The cook would then leave after preparing breakfast
and cleaning up. After waking, at approximately 7 a.m., and leaving breakfast, the
children will be taken to school by one the caretakers. After dropping the children at
school the caretakers will return and prepare reports and communicate with parents and
respond to the daily needs of the children and the household. After school the caretakers
will pick up the children and (absent any extracurricular activity such as a play date) the
children and caretakers will go directly to our facility in Plea: anton where the kids
play/relax, complete homework assignments, obtain necessary tutoring, and have dinner.
After dinner the children are taken back to the home by the caretakers at approximately 8
p.m. The children are in their rooms for bed at 10 p.m.
Saturdays - community service fellowship at Mil Al Church in Cupertino. The
program is committed to provide community service opportunities and Mil Al Church has
been a great partner in that regard. The program is also seekir.g opportunities for local
community service opportunities.
Sundays - religious services and optional recreational events for the children such
as field trips to museums, sporting events, malls, and libraries.
Due to the fact that the children are busy and spend mast of their waking hours
away from the home their presence will be compatible with, z.nd certainly not injurious
to, the neighborhood. The CC&Rs of the Dublin Ranch subdivision allow for the
occupation of each bedroom of a home by no more than two persons thus the maximum
number of people allowed in the home under the CC&Rs is consistent with the intended
use. Likewise, the day to day activities at, and traffic generated by, the home will be
C ADOCUME--1 UFD\LOCALS-1 \Temp\8 ,workshare\mwtemp 14a0\ws l .tmp\375572.doc 2
consistent with the existing residential activities in the neighborhood and other similarly
situated Dublin neighborhoods. The Oakhurst residence will have only two vehicles,
unlike many families that have three or more vehicles. None of the students will ever be
allowed to drive. The vehicles will be used to provide transportation to and from school,
and on weekends they will be used to go to church and community service and to run an
occasional errand. Other regular vehicle trips/visits include a two times per week visit by
a housecleaner, a once a week visit by a gardener, and also a once per week visit to the
grocery store by the cook. Caretakers will not have personal -,ars at the residence at any
time and would reside in the casita.
As for vacation period, it is generally the case that pa:'ticipating families use the
summer vacation period as an opportunity to have their children come home to Korea;
however, the Oakhurst home remains available to enrolled children during this period. It
is also quite common for the children generally go home for vacations that allow for the
travel involved. For shorter school breaks the children would typically stay at the home.
Anticipating concerns over noise Iroonet America nol.es that it has agreed to limit
outside activities after 9 p.m. on weekdays and 10 p.m. on weekends. It is also subject to
the City of Dublin noise ordinance and Dublin Ranch CC&Rs that prohibit unreasonable
amounts of noise.
The pursuit of education is a priority among the parents of the children that
participate in the Iroonet America program and, while a sacrifice of daily contact with
their children and in terms of expense, participation in the program and providing a
foundation for a world class education is considered an extraordinary expression of love
and affection for their children. It is also worthy to note that the children participating in
the Iroonet program, that are or will be living at 3608 Oakhurst Court, should be viewed
as an asset to the community and part of a larger American family. They add an
important element of culture and diversity to Dublin and the East Bay and give back to
our local communities in a dramatic and consistent way. Th--ir presence also offers local
children the opportunity to share and discuss the Korean culture, as well as inspiration to
achieve academic success.

Traffic Data Statement
Iroonet Conditional Use Permit Application
3608 Oakhurst Court
Dublin, CA 94568
Iroonet and the children living at 3608 Oakhurst Court in Dublin, California have
the same or less traffic impact as neighboring residences. The children are transported by
their guardians to school, tutoring, church and community activities in one of three
different Toyota Sienna minivans (seven person seating capacity) and generate
approximately two trips or less per day from their home on Oz khurst Court. There will
rarely be more than two minivans at the house at any one time and they are parked in
either the driveway or garage.
On a typical weekday, the children leave for school at approximately 7 a.m. They
are picked up from school at 3 p.m., and remain at a local tutoring center until 8:00 p.m.
The children return home between 8:30 and 9:00 p.m. to prepare for bed and study. On
the weekend, the children participate in organized educational excursions, take part in
community activities, attend church and work with local disabled children.
Iroonet strictly prohibits the children from driving in the United States and any
additional traffic would be related to the guardians who live w:.th the children.

SUBJECT: CUP for Establishment of a Boarding House at 3608 Oakhurst Court .
I have conducted a review of the Conditional Use Permit application for the Iroonet Boarding
House at 3608 Oakhurst Drive. Based on the description of program operations, I do not
believe there are any traffic-related impacts associated with the Boarding House. The amount
of traffic generated by the residence as well as the number of vehicles (2 to 3) is comparable to
a typical single family. residence. I visited the site on two occasions and did not see any
vehicles parked in the driveway, so I assume that parking neE!ds can be accommodated either
within the garage or in the driveway. The program does not allow the students to own or
operate a vehicle, so there doer not appear to be a need for additional vehicles or parking
spaces.
Please let me know if you have any questions about these comments.

Melissa Morton, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Iroonet Boarding House CUP, 3608 Oakhurst Drive
Revised Use Permit Application
I have reviewed the Revised Written Statement provided by Iroonet America, Inc. for the Conditional Use
Permit at 3608 Oakhurst Drive, dated December 18, 2008. 1 have also reviewed the original statement
dated July 25, 2008, and the memorandum provided on October 22, 2008 by Jaimee Bourgeois, Senior
Transportation Engineer, with regards to parking at the site.
The original statement indicates that two minivans will typically be based at the site, for use in
transportation of residents. The statement says that the vehicles will be parked in the driveway or in the
garage when present at the site.
Based on this statement and a site visit, the Senior Transportation Engineer indicated in the October 22
memorandum that adequate parking was available at the site.
The revised statement indicates that the facility will have only two vehicles for transportation of residents.
It also indicates that a cook will visit the site between 530AM and 600AM each weekday morning to
prepare breakfast. At this time, the residents would not yet be at school and the vans would still be at the
site. If the vans are parked in the two-car garage apron, the cook would need to park in the street. If the
vans were parked in the garage, the cook could park in the apron but would need to move out on to the
street in order for the vans to leave (It is noted that the photos included in the application show the vans
parked in the apron, outside of the garage).
The statement also indicates that there will be a weekly visit by the ccok to drop off groceries.
The statement is not clear as to whether or not the cook would provide services on weekends.
The statement also indicates that there will be a twice-weekly visit by a housekeeper and a weekly visit
by a gardener. The statement indicates that caretakers will be presen: at the site throughout the day on
various administrative duties. Therefore, the vans will be present at the site and the housekeeper and the
gardener will have the same parking constraints that the cook has during the morning. Although these
visits would likely generate on-street parking, this would be no greaten impact than that from similar
gardening, housekeeping, or other ancillary services that might be provided to adjoining residences.

In contrast, the daily visits by the cook could generate the need for additional on-street parking not
typically required for a single family residence. In order to mitigate thE! additional parking needs, the
facility should be conditioned to provide parking for at least one of the vans in the garage, and the cook
shall be required to park in the driveway apron. This will require that at least one space in the garage be
kept clear at all times to allow the van to be parked inside.
Please contact me if you with any comments on the above.

Re: Iroonet Inc's application to open a boarding school
Location - 3608 Oakhurst Court, Dublin, CA
To whom this may concern (City of Dublin) or to Laura Ke raboghosian:
Please accept this letter as a request to challenge Iroone-:'s plan to open a
boarding school for 12 students at 3608 Oakhurst Court in Dublin, CA. I am the
owner of the house located across the street (3611 Oakhurst Court) and am
against their plan to allow a boarding school for 12 students in a residential
neighborhood. I will be fine for them to run a boarding sc-iool for only up to 6 or
7 students but 12 is extrernely too high and that no tutone l services should be
provided at this site. I have purchased a house specifically in this culdesac area
for my family and two young children (now age 3 and 5) 5 years ago and very
concern about the traffic, crowd and danger that will be created by having 12
students plus caretakers in this culdesac area.
As a matter of fact, to my knowledge Iroonet had started running this boarding
school last year (with over 10 students) without permit at -:he same location and
City of Dublin had to shut it down or limit them to only fou - students (legal
state/city limit). During that time when they were boarding 10 students, I noticed
the tremendous amount of traffic (cars, vans) coming in and out of the culdesac
area and noise. In addition, I'm concerned about the safety of my two children as
this is a quiet neighborhood and specifically purchased a home in the culdesac
area so that my kids would safe to play outside. In addition, this area is
designated for single family and should not be allowed as living quarters for too
many students.
Again, I will be fine with them running a boarding school -nor up to 6 or 7
students, but 12 is too much.
Thank you for your consideration on this matter.
