FINDINGS
WHEREAS, the City Council finds as follows:
ho
The purpose of the Fire Facilities Fee (hereafter "Fee" ) is to finance municipal public facilities to
reduce the impacts caused by future developments in the City of. Dublin. Such facilities, which are
specifically described in the Study, include the following: lahd ~'quisition ahd construction of two
new fire stations, rolling stock and equipment for two new §tations, a fire inspector vehicle,
administrative space and improvements to the interim Santa Rita fire station. The public facilities
described in the study are hereinafter referred to as the "Facilities".
B. The Fees collected pursuant to this resolution shall be used to finance the Facilities.
Co
After considering the Study, the testimony received at this noticed public hearing, the Agenda.
statements, the General Plan, the Sp, the Station Location Study, the Building Code, the E Dublin
-2-
EIR and Addenda, the Schaefer EIR, and all correspondence received (hereafter "record") the
Council approves and adopts said Study, and incorporates such herein, and further finds that the
future development in the City of Dublin will generate the need for the Facilities and the Facilities
are consistent with the City's General Plan, the Station Location Study, and the Eastern Dublin
Specific Plan.
Do
The adoption of the Fee as it relates to development within Eastern Dublin is within the scope of
the E Dublin EIR and Addenda. The Facilities were identified in the EIR as necessary to
accommodate development in Eastern Dublin. The impacts of such development, including the
Facilities, were adequately analyzed at a Program leveI in the E Dublin EIR. Since the certification
of the E Dublin EIR there have been no substantial changes in the projections of future
development as identified in the E Dublin EI~ no substantial changes in the surrounding
circumstances, and no other new information of substantial importance so as to require important
revisions in the E Dublin EIR's analysis of impacts, mitigation measures, and alternatives.
Subsequent project-specific envkonmental review under CEQA of the Facilities will be requked
before any such Facilities are approved. It is not feasible to provide project specific envkonmental
'review of the Facilities at this stage, as they will be implemented over a 30-year period and specific
details as to their timing, construction and precise location are not .presently known.
The adoption of the Fee as it relates to development within the area covered by the Schaefer
Project ("Schaefer Ranch Annexation Area") is within the scope of the Schaefer EIR. The
Facilities were all identified in the Schaefer EIR as necessary to accommodate development in
Dublin. The impacts of such developm?nt, including the Facilities, were adequately analyzed at a
Project level in the Schaefer EIR. Since' the certification of the Schaefer EIR there have been no
substantial changes in the projections of future development as identified in the Schaefer EIR, no
substantial changes in the surrounding circumstances, and no other new information of substantial
importance so as to require important revisions in the Schaefer EIR's analysis of impacts, mitigation
measures, and alternatives. Subsequent project-specific environmental review under CEQA of the
Facilities will be required before any such Facilities are approved. It is not feasible to provide
project specific environmental review of the Facilities at this stage, as they will be implemented
over a 30-year period and specific details as to their timing, construction and precise location are
not presently known.
The adoption of the Fee as it relates to development within the City of Dublin (excluding Eastern
Dublin and the Schaefer Annexation Area) is to obtain funds f~t' capital projects necessary to
maintain service within the existing service areas; that the City currently provides fire protection
and suppression services through the Dougherty Regional Fire Authority which operates from three
fire stations, two of which are located within the City limits ~(including the temporary Santa Rita
station); that the Dougherty Regional Fire Authority will cease i~viding su.ch services within
Dublin as of June 30, 1997 and that such services will be pr6~id~i] within Dublin by the City
through contract with Alameda County; that the Fee will be used to maintain current service levels;
and that no existing deficiencies have been found to exist. As such, the Fee as it relates to
development within the City (excluding Eastern Dublin and the Schaefer Ranch Annexation Area)
is not a "project" within the meaning of CEQA (Public Resources Code § 21080(b)(8)(D)).
-3-
In adopting the Fee, the Council is exercising its powers under Article XI § 7 of the California
Constitution, Chapter 7.78 of the Dublin Municipal Code and Chapter 5 of Division 1 of the
Government Code, commencing with section 66000 (and section 66018, in particular) collectively
and separately.
The record establishes:
That there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the Facilities and the impacts of
the types of development for which the corresponding fee is charged in that new
development in the City of Dublin (hereat~er to include Eastern Dublin and the Schaefer
Ranch Annexation Area) -- both residential and non-residential -- will generate persons who
live, work and/or shop in Dublin and who generate or contribute to the need for the
Facilities; and
That there is a reasonable relationship between the Fee's use (to pay for the construction of
the Facilities) and the type of development for which the Fee is charged in that all
development in the City of Dublin -- both residential and non-residential -- generates or
contributes to the need for the,Facilities;., and
o
That there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the Fee and the cost of the
Facilities or portion thereof attributable to development in the City of Dublin in that the Fee
is calculated based on the number of residents or employees generated by specific types of
land uses, the total amount it will cost to construct the Facilities, and the percentage by
which development within the CitY of Dublin contributes to the need for the Facilities; and
That the cost estimates set forth in the study are reasonable cost estimates for constructing
the Facilities, and the Fees expected to be generated by future development will not exceed
the projected costs of constructing the Facilities; and
o
The method of allocation of the Fee to a particular development bears a fair and reasonable
relationship to each development's burden on, and benefit from, the Facilities to be funded
by the Fee, in that the Fee is calculated based on the number of residents or employees each
particular development will generate.
The Study is a detailed analysis of how public services will b?~'fected by development in the City
of Dublin, and the public facilities required to accommodate ihat development.

DUBLIN FIRE FACILITIES FINANCING PLAN STUDY
INTRODUCTION
The Dougherty Regional Fire Authority (DRFA) has been providing fire services to the City of
Dublin and portions of the City of San Ramon since a joint powers agreement was signed
between the two cities in 1988. To reduce costs and consolidate fire services, the City of San
Ramon has decided to allow the San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District to annex areas of the
City of San Ramon served by the DRFA. As a result, the DRFA will be dissolved effective July
1~, 1997, and its assets allocated to the cities of Dublin and San Ramon. On that date, the City of
Dublin will contract with the Alameda County Fire Department for fire services, and will be
responsible for providing the necessary capital facilities.
Significant residential and nonresidential development is expected to occur in the City of Dublin
through build-out, with extensive development in the Eastern Extended Planning Area in
accordance with the Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and the Eastern Dublin Specific
Plan, as well as modest growth in the Western Extended planning Area, as directed in the
Schaefer Ranch General Plan Amendment. To plan for this growth, the City of Dublin will need
to evaluate the fire facilities required to serve new development through build-out, as well as
explore methods for funding these facilities.
Using estimates of the type, amount, and timing of new development through build-out as well as
accepted industry levels-of-service standards, this study documents the amount and cost of fire
facilities necessary to serve growth in the entire City of Dublih thtbugh build-out. In addition,
the study calculates a fire facilities impact fee that fairly allocates the costs of fire facilities to
new development. Finally, the study develops a financing plan for funding facilities in advance
of receiving fee revenue.

Fire Facilities Financing Study
This study is compatible with the City's existing public facilities fee program, the most recent
version of which is documented in the Public Facilities Justification Study Update prepared by
our firm in November 1996. In particular, this study follows the format of the most recent
update, and uses population and employment projections that are Consistent with those contained
in that study.
FINDINGS REQUIRED BY GOVERNMENT CODE 66001
Government Code 66001 et seq. (AB 1600) governs impact fees (also referred to as "public
facilities fees") imposed by all public agencies. In particular, these statutes delineate an agency's
documentation requirements for imposing fees, as well as requirements related to the
administration of fee revenues. This section presents the five findings necessary to comply with
Government Code 66001.
Purpose of the Fire Facilities Impact F~e
The purpose of the'fire facilities impact fee is to provide funding for fire facilities required to
serve new development.
Use of the Fire Facilities Impact Fee
Proceeds from the fire facilities impact fee would be used by th¢Cit-y of Dublin to provide fire
facilities needed to serve new development, including:
Two new fire stations in the Eastern Dublin Exten~ed:~lanning Area;
All' associated equipment and rolling stock; and
NeCessary administrative and other support facilities.
Hausrath Economics Group 2
Fire Facilities Financing Study
Relationship Between the Use of Fire
Facilities Impact Fee and Type of New Development
Fee revenue will be used to build new fire facilities to respond to increases in demand for fire
services brought about by new development. New development of any kind occurring anywhere
in the City of Dublin will contribute to the need for additional fire facilities by increasing the
number of service calls and expanding the service area.
Relationship Between the Need for
Fire Facilities and Type of New Development
Fire facilities are needed to provide service at acceptable standards, such as maintaining a five-
minute response time. New development generates the need for additional fire facilities by
increasing the mount of calls for service and by expanding the service area. Both residential
and nonresidential development generate additional service calls due to the increased number of
residents and workers, as well as increased amount of structures. The City will need additional
fire facilities to maintain acceptable service standards while accommodating new development.
Relationship Between the Amount of Fire
Facilities Fee Payment and Cost of Fire Facilities
Fire facility fees are based on the total cost of fire facilities required to serve build-out of the
City's service population. New development is then allocated a share of those total costs based
?
on its share of the total build-out service population. By using average occupant densities
(persons per dWelling unit and workers per building square foot), new development's share of
total costs is fairly allocated to each new development projeci thr6iagh the fee.
DEVELOPMENT PROJECTIONS
ProjectiOns of new development are the first step in determining facilities needs. The Eastern
Dublin General Plan Amendment and the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan provide estimates of new
Hausrath Economics Group 3
D~ ~ Fire Facilities Financing Study
development projected for the City's Eastern Extended Planning Area. Growth in the Western
Extended Planning Area currently consists of development proposed under the Schaefer Ranch
General Plan Amendment. Further, the City has provided additional information on growth in
the infill area of the City, including the Trumark Homes project described in the Trumark Homes
General Plan Amendment. The inclusion of infill growth ensures that all new development
citywide bears its fair share of total facilities costs. All projections are for build-out of the City.
Table 1 presents estimates of dwelling units and commercial/industrial building square feet for
1997 and through build-out. Adjustments have been made to the 1994 development estimates
contained in the Public Facilities Justification Study Update to account for projects that have
l~een built or vested since 1994. Existing and furore development is shown for Eastern Dublin,
Western Dublin, the infill area (remainder of the City), and for the three areas combined.
Dwellings in the infill area currently total 8,143 units. This includes 443 dwelling units on the
Hansen Ranch and Donlan Canyon projects, which have been approved and are currently under
construction and, thus, not subject to this fee program. Existing development for Eastern Dublin
totals 329 units, including 277 dwelling units approved for the California Creekside project.
Total existing dwelling units in the existing city, Eastern Dublin, and Western Dublin is
estimated at 8,474. These estimates are based on data from the California Department of Finance
and up-to-date information from the City of Dublin on recently developed or vested major
projects.
Eastern Dublin is presently largely undeveloped, with only about 52 existing rural residences,
and the start of residential construction at the California Creekside project. New nonresidential
development is expected to begin construction during the nex~ re,years. According to the
Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment, residential development in Eastern Dublin is
projected to add 13,854 dwelling units, including the California Creekside project. Western
Dublin is also largely undeveloped, and has only two existing rural residences. The Schaefer
Ranch General Plan Amendment calls for 474 dwelling units, most of which will be detached
single-family homes. The Schaefer Ranch project has yet to receive all necessary entitlements.

D~ t Fire Facilities Financing Study
Development in the remainder of the City will be limited to 195 units. This includes the
Trumark Homes infill project, which calls for 92 detached single-family dwelling units.
Commercial and industrial space in the infill area currently totals approximately 3,668,000
square feet, roughly one-half of which is retail. This figure is based on a commercial and
industrial inventory prepared in 1994, as well as updated City information on recent projects, and
also includes projects which have been vested but not yet built. The majority of commercial and
industrial development potential exists in Eastern Dublin, where a total of 9,737,000 square feet
are proposed. In Western Dublin, only about 26,000 square feet of commercial and office space
is expected under the Schaefer Ranch General Plan Amendment. In the infill area,
~pproximately 594,000 potential square feet will be built, and the predominant use will be
commercial.
Public land uses proposed for Eastern Dublin are not shown in Table 1. Most of this consists of
proposed Alameda County facilities, including offices, jail expansion, corporation yard, and
animal shelter. Public agencies are exempt from paying development impact fees; thus, the
development and the corresponding employment is excluded from the fee analysis.
FACILITIES STANDARDS AND REQUIREMENTS
The determination of new facilities needed to serve growth is based on policy standards which
establish minimum levels of service for city facilities. The accepted' standard is used to
determine facilities requirements to serve existing and new development.
The City may adopt any reasonable service standards. Stand .ards.:~ay be based, for example, on
the level of existing facilities or a publicly-adopted standard, such as the parkland standard in the

facilities are below the standard chosen as the basis for fees, the City must use alternative funds
to expand these facilities to the same standard and thereby remedy the existing deficiency.
To determine facilities requirements for new development, it is important to understand that fire
facilities operate as an interdependent system that is planned based on build-out conditions.
While specific stations are primarily responsible for protecting development in their immediate
service area, all stations within a city are ultimately responsible for providing service to all areas
of that city. For example, engine companies from the existing station in the infill area will
support engine companies in Eastern Dublin, and vice versa. In addition, stations in the infill
area and Eastern Dublin will provide service to Western Dublin. When one company responds to
a'call, other companies may need to temporarily relocate to maintain adequate response
capabilities citywide. Further, the city adds a facility improvement (i.e., a new fire stations with
vehicles) only occasionally.
For these reasons, it is impractical and inappropriate to assign the costs of specific facilities to
particular phases and locations of new development. Consequently, for the purposes of this
study, fire facilities are determined for the entire City of Dublin at build-out, and then new
development is allocated its fair share to calculate the facilities fee.
The facilities required to serve development at build-out are based on information provided by
the DRFA, Alameda County Fire Department, and City of Dublin. Additional fire stations are
planned to maintain a response time goal of five minutes. Though no official response time
standard has been formally adopted by the DRFA, the DRFA has expressed a desire to achieve a
five-minute response time, which was recommended in the Fire Station Location Study
performed by Hughes Heiss in 1989. Further, a five-minute rbspo~se time is a condition for
mitigation requirements in the City of Dublin Building Code, and is stated as a goal in the
Eastern Dublin Specific Plan.
The City is currentlY served by one 9,000-square-foot two-company fire station located in the
infill area. The City is also served by an interim fire station located on the Santa Rita property in

Eastern Dublin, which eventually will be phased out with the construction of new stations in
Eastern Dublin. According to the Schaefer Ranch General Plan Amendment, assuming
implementation of proper mitigation measures such as sprinkler systems, no new station will be
needed to serve development of the Schaefer Ranch project only. A new station will be
necessary to serve the Western Dublin Extended Planning Area only if substantial additional
development occurs. The total build-out facilities requirements used in this study do not include
a new station in the Western Dublin Extended Planning Area. In the Eastern Dublin Extended
planning Area, two new 7,000-square-foot single-company fire stations will be needed to serve
build-out as envisioned by the Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and the Eastern Dublin
Specific Plan. The fire facilities required to serve the City at build-out, and their costs, are
summarized in Table 2.

FACILITIES COST ALLOCATION
This study allocates total fire facilities costs to new and existing development on a service
population basis. Residents serve as a measure of fire service demand for residential
development, and workers serve as a measure of demand for nonresidential development.
Workers are weighted at 24 percent of residents to reflect the amount of time workers spend in
the City compared to residents. This is a reasonable way to allocate costs for fire facilities
because past analyses of service calls in Dublin and other cities indicate that the number of
people in a building are a primary determinant of the number of fire and emergency medical
service calls. The calculation of build-out service population is shown in Table 3.2 Thus, at
l~Uild-out, the total cost of facilities per capita is $10,828,000 divided by 65,993, or $164 per
resident and $39 per worker.
Allocation of costs to new development according to the various land uses is also done on the
basis of service population. Fees are applied on the physical amount of new development, e.g.,
fee per dwelling unit or fee per 1,000 square feet of building space. The saT~ e population and
employment densities used to calculate total service population also are used to distribute total
facilities costs among land use categories. For special land uses, such as churches, fees should
be charged based on the land use category with the closest comparable occupant density, Table 4
shows the calculation of fire facilities impact fees.
The fee schedule presented in Table 4 does not take financing i~to account. The amounts shown
would apply for a fee program in which facilities are financed on a "pay-as-you-go" basis. Fire
facilities are relatively expensive, "lumpy" investments which often need to be built early in the
phasing of new development, before sufficient fee revenue is available. As a result, the City will
need a financing mechanism, such as certificates of participation (COPs), to make up any
difference between accumulated fee revenue in the fire facility fund and capital expenditures.
Financing costs are an additional cost of facilities for new development and must be included in

Fire Facilities Financing Study
FACILITIES FINANCING
Approach
This section presents a financing plan for funding new development's fair share of build-out fire
facilities needs and adjusts the fee schedule shown in Table 4 to reflect that plan. Based on
discussions with staff of the Dougherty Regional Fire Authority and the City of Dublin City
Manager's Office, this study assumes the first station would be built in the year 2002, when
approximately 25 percent of the Eastern Dublin Extended Planning Area is built out, and the
second station would be built in the year 2012, when about 80 percent of Eastern Dublin is built
o~Ut. To evaluate the financing requirements of this scenario, we estimated fire facility fee
revenues that would be collected through build-out. For this, it was necessary to project the
phasing of new development through build-out, which is assumed to be the year 2025. We
developed a phasing schedule based on growth rates indicated in ABAG's Projections '96. We
assumed that the City would increase the iSre facilities fee schedule annually at a rate of five
percent, based on an estimate that the City would receive interest earnings of five percent
annually on fire facilities impact fee fund balances. These assumptions leave the City revenue-
neutral regardless of the phasing of new development.
We developed a financing model of the fire facilities impact fee fund to account for all revenues
and expenditures related to fire facilities through build-out. The financing model enabled us to
determine whether the fire fee fund balance would be adequate t.~o fund new fire facilities as they
are constructed. Some form of debt financing, most likely COPs, would be required in the event
that the fire facility fund balance could not fully support capital costs.
Assumptions
The financing model is based on a number of key financial assumptions. These assumptions are
shown in Table 5.

Financing Plan
Financial modeling resulted in the need for two issues of COPs to fund the two new fire stations
and associated equipment and administrative space. A $2.4 million issue would be required to
fund the cost of the first new fire station in the year 2002, and a $2.5 million issue would be
required to fund the cost of the second new fire station in the year 2012. The fire facilities fund
would collect sufficient revenues to pay off the first COP withiri?six'years, and the second COP
would be paid off in 13 years, or by the projected build-out year 2025.
The financial model results indicate a negligible ending fund bal~ee, given the range of
uncertainty for the plan's assumptions. These results indicate that new development would pay
its fair share of total facilities required at build-out by funding all new facilities under the
financing plan.
Hausrath Economics Group 13
Fire Facilities Financing Study
Table 6 shows how the facilities cost used to calculate the final fire facilities fee was adjusted to
incorporate financing plan cost and revenue impacts, compared to the preliminary fee calculated
earlier in this study (see Table 4). First, the cost of debt is added to the cost of fire facilities
because this cost is an additional component of facilities cost not incorporated into the
preliminary fee schedule. Second, interest earnings on fund balances were credited against costs.
Earnings represent an additional revenue source that must be credited to the fire facilities impact
fee fund. These adjusted costs, when divided by the 65,993 build-out service population, result
in costs of $160 per capita. In Table 7, these amounts are used to calculate an adjusted fee
schedule.
