Conditional uses.
Development regulations.
Design guidelines.
INTENT. The intent of these Development Regulations and Design Guidelines is to
regulate site development and to promote flexibility using site planning criteria
specifically for the "Santa Rita Creekside Office" site. These regular!ohs are intended to
encourage innovative site and design solutions that will accommodate a mix of office, and
Research and Development uses. The site development plan shall integrate the uses,
structures, parking and site circulation to create the appearance of a singular workplace,
rather than a variety of independent developments. The architecture for all of the
structures on site shall incorporate consistent and recurring design elements in order to
provide harmonious and complementary buildings which blend with each other and
surrounding uses. Site landscaping, lighting and signage shall compliment and
accentuate the structures. The project shall project the image of a cohesive planned
business environment.
Santa Rita Creekside Office Site is a subsequent phase of the Planned Development Zone
bordered on the west by Arnold Drive ,and on the east by Hacienda Drive. Central
Parkway forms the site's southern bounc~ary. As such, buildings and site circulation for
both pedestrians and eehicles shall be coordinated to limit the need to provide access
between sites from public thoroughfares. Building architecture between sites should
incorporate consistent or similar materials. The overall effect intended for this area is to
transition from office industrial uses closer to Gleason (Creekside Business Park) to high
intensity office and ultimately higher density residential uses located across Central
Parkway southerly of this project. The site shall be divided into two sub-sites: A -
"Research and Development/LightManufacturing"and, B ~ "Office Site". -

minimum setback, however, subsequent'stories (above 2 stories) on the same
building must be stepped back in accordance with the following schedule. No
more than 70% of the building elevation above two stories shall be at the
minimum setback. The intent of this requirement is to reduce building mass to

Site Design: Site design is to establish the character, form and aesthetic features
that contribute to the creation of a development that is in harmony internally and
with its setting and in conformance with standard conditions of approval and
policies of the City of Dublin where applicable.
Se
Wherever possible, buildings should be sited in relation to each other to
create a system of semi-enclosed and usable outdoor areas.
Buildings should be located so that the buildings and landscaped areas, not
parking areas, create the dominant positive impression of site character
from the surrounding streets.
Setback variations among buildings along a street ard required. No two
neighboring buildings shall have the same setback for more than 40% of
their frontages.
Exceptions to the stated setback requirements are:
Architectural projections (such as eaves, columns or arcades) may
encroach not more than forty (40) percent into the setback.
b. Freestanding signage as defined in the Master Signage Program.
Front and side yard setbacks shall be fully landscaped.
Major vehicular access pbints shall be oriented to attractive features of
buildings or open space.
Signature Statement: Each site, individually or the entire site if it is
developed under a comprehensive plan, shall incorporate a signature
statement which visually identifies this property. (See "Open Space
Landscaping, Circulation and Architectural Design" below).
The intent of this requirement is to create a visual presence of this
development which defines the style of the project and differentiates the
Santa Rim Creekside Office Site from similar developments.
The site shall be designed to institute State Regional Water Quality Control
Board Best Management Practices f6r storm drainage. All parts of the site,
including building pads, parking, loading, access driveways and
maneuvering areas shall be graded and well-drained and shall be
maintained at all times. Drainage outlets shall include a sign reading "No

opaque gate six feet in height and shall not be located near any pedestrian
access points or outdoor usable open space areas. A roof structure
acceptable to the Fire Department shall be used for additional screening
· from 2 or more story structures and to prevent winds from blowing refuse
deposited in these enclosures.
10.
Location of Industrial Uses and Parking Structures: The project site is
across Hacienda Drive and Central Parkway from an area where the
designated land uses are medium-high and high density residential.
Therefore, industrial uses and parking structures are encouraged to locate
as close as possible to Arnold Drive and the northerly boundary of the site
and to take primary truck access from Arnold Drive.
11.
Parking Structures: Parking structures shall be located'as close as practical
to the northerly site boundary. On sub-site B - "Office Site" any parking
structure shall be located as far westerly as possible a~ay from Hacienda
Avenue.

parking structure shall be located as far northerly as possible and shall be
located as close to Arnold Drive as practical.
A parking structure proposed for either sub-site shall be limited in height
to 70% of the adjacent office structure.
Open Space and Landscaping: A~:minimum of twenty percent (20%) of the gross
site area shall be provided in open space. Open space shall include landscaping in

(4)
The landscaped strip between the parking area and the
property line along a public right of way shall include a
berm not less than three feet in height or with a slope not to
exceed a ratio of 2:1 to substantially screen the view of

planting on the berm shall be designed to block views of
parked vehicles.
(5)
(6)
At entries, sidewalks shall be incorporated into the
landscaped strip..Ai ,.minimum of 4 feet clear width shall be

dimension of five feet by five feet, excluding curb. Landscaped
islands or adjacent trees in planting strips shall be located for every
four parking spaces in a single row.
Parking Structures: Where 'parking structures are utilized, they
shall be located aw,ay from Hacienda Drive and Central Parkway.
Parking structures:for sub-site B shall be located close to Arnold
Drive and the northerly property line providing all setbacks and
screening techniques are, adhered to. Parking structures on either
sub-site shall be screened with combinations of landscaping and
berming and the required tree count per parking stall, as required
in the Dublin Parking Ordinance, may be reduced by as much as
50% with the required trees being placed around the perimeter of
the structure.

architectural design techniques, the Santa Rita Creekside Office Site will project a
statement to define this site. The architectural design elements shall coordinate
with vehicular and pedestrian signature elements, as well as the landscaping and
open space signature feature.
I0
The front and side facades of buildings shall be designed to provide visual
interest to pedestrians and motorists. Front and side building facades shall
