Legal background on the purpose of development agreements (including a discussion of vested rights and vesting tentative maps). 2. Background on the history of development agreements in Dublin (including a discussion of the policy in the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan ("EDSP") that requires every development to have a development agreement). 3. A discussion of the following key issues: a. Whether the EDSP development-agreement requirement should be retained. b. The value of development agreements to developers. c. The appropriate compensation to the City for granting a development agreement. d. The process the City uses and would propose to use for the negotiation of development agreements. In the course of preparing the report, staff would consult with a select group of landowners and developers for their perspectives. Staff is requesting that the City Council provide staff direction on whether this project ("Conduct a Study of the City's development agreement process") is a high priority project and should be included in the Fiscal Year 2009/10 Goals and Objectives for completion this fiscal year.
