A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN
AMENDING THE GENERAL PLAN AND EASTERN DUBLIN SPECIFIC PLAN FOR THE
GRAFTON PLAZA PROJECT (APN 985-0061-010& 985-0061-004)
PA 07-006
WHEREAS, Jim Tong/Charter Properties submitted applications for a 496,519 square
foot project on approximately 25.33 acres between 1-580 and Dublin Boulevard, east of Grafton
Street. The Project proposes future development of either Campus Office uses, or of a mixed
use residential/retail and office project with up to 50% residential uses. The Project includes
applications for General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan amendments to create a new
"flex" designation of Mixed Use 2/Campus Office, to create a new Grafton Plaza subarea in the
Specific Plan, and to slightly expand the mixed uses to include shopkeeper, live/work and other
uses; a PD-Planned Development rezoning and related Stage 1 Development Plan to allow
future development under either the Campus Office or residential mixed use options. The
applications are collectively known as the "Project"; and
WHEREAS, the Project site slopes gently from north to south. The northerly portion of
the site is vacant and has previously been graded and filled; the southerly portion of the site is
developed with a water quality basin; and
WHEREAS, the General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan amendments would
create a new Mixed Use 2/Campus Office land use designation and apply it to the Grafton Plaza
site. This flex-designation would allow the Project site to develop in the future as a Campus
Office project, or as a mixed use residential/office and retail project, generally consistent with
the development options in the current Campus Office land use designation. The new
designation slightly expands the permitted uses under the mixed use residential option to allow
shopkeeper, live/work and other uses. The Project would also amend the Eastern Dublin
Specific Plan to add a new Grafton Plaza subarea; and
WHEREAS, consistent with Government Code section 65352.3, the City obtained a
contact list of local Native American tribes from the Native American Heritage Commission and
notified the tribes of the opportunity to consult with the City on the proposed General Plan and
Specific Plan amendments. None of the contacted tribes requested a consultation within the 90-
day statutory consultation period and no further action is required under section 65352.3; and
WHEREAS, on April 13, 2010, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution 10-XX
recommending that the City Council adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Grafton
Plaza project, which resolution is incorporated herein by reference and available for review at
City Hall during normal business hours; and
WHEREAS, on April 13, 2010, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution 10-XX
recommending that the City Council approve the proposed General Plan and Specific Plan
amendments, which resolution is incorporated herein by reference and available for review at
City Hall during normal business hours; and

EXHIBIT A TO
ATTACHMENT I

Council; and
WHEREAS, the City Council held a properly noticed public hearing on the Project,

K. Add Table 4.14 and text to identify the new subarea Mixed Use 2/Campus Office:
LOCATION
The Grafton Plaza subarea is located between Dublin Boulevard and Interstate 580 and east of
Grafton Street. (Refer to Figure 4.1)
LAND USE CONCEPT
The Grafton Plaza subarea is intended to provide a vibrant Mixed Use and urban village or
Campus Office project that is pedestrian friendly, human scaled, and creates an active
environment permitting an opportunity for residents to live, work, and play in a place currently
not provided for in the area. This subarea builds off the adjacent Promenade and Grafton
Station retail projects and adjacent medium-high and high density residential communities to
establish a residential, commercial, and hospitality destination.
The subarea will allow a maximum of 496,519 square feet of development (0.45 FAR), and the
residential use, if utilized as part of a mixed use development, shall not exceed 50% of the
project square footage. No residential is permitted under the Campus Office development
option. Usable and attractive open space areas will be incorporated into the project to provide
unique public spaces.
The architecture and landscape character will be governed by design guidelines and standards
to ensure an attractive and cohesive project and establish a framework that encourages public
activity, human scale, and high quality design and materials.
