WHEREAS, a Staff Report, dated August 24, 2010 and incorporated herein by reference,
described and analyzed the Project, including the Vesting Tentative Tract Map for the Planning
Commission; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a properly noticed public hearing on the
Project, including the proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map, on August 24, 2010 at which time
all interested parties had the opportunity to be heard; and
WHEREAS, proper notice of said public hearing was given in all respects as required by
law; and
WHEREAS, a Staff Report was submitted to the Planning Commission recommending
approval of Vesting Tentative Tract Map 7667 subject to the conditions prepared by Staff; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission considered the CEQA exemption and prior related
environmental documents, and all above-referenced reports, recommendations, and testimony
to evaluate the Project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the foregoing recitals are true and correct
and made a part of this resolution, and that the Planning Commission does hereby find:
1. Vesting Tentative Tract Map 7667 is consistent with the intent of applicable
subdivision regulations and related ordinances.
2. The design or improvements of Vesting Tentative Tract Map 7667 is consistent with
the City's General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan policies as they apply to the
subject property in that it is a subdivision for implementation of a residential
community in an area designated for high-density, transit-oriented, residential
development.
3. Vesting Tentative Tract Map 7667 is consistent with the Planned Development Zoning
District Stage 1 Development Plan (as amended) approved as PA 00-013 for this
project and is therefore consistent with the City of Dublin Zoning Ordinance.
4. The site is located adjacent to major roads on +4.1 gross acres of relatively flat
topography and is, therefore, physically suitable for the type and density of
development.
5. With the incorporation of mitigation measures from the Final Program EIR and
subsequent addenda, the design of the subdivision will not cause environmental
damage or substantially injure fish or wildlife or their habitat or cause public health
concerns.
6. The design of the subdivision will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public
at large, or access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision. The
City Engineer has reviewed the map and title report and has not found any conflicting
easements of this nature.
7. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning Commission finds
that the Project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Government Code section 65457
because it is a residential project that is consistent with a specific plan for which an
2
EIR has been certified. The Project is within the scope of the Final Environmental
Impact Report (EIR) for the Dublin Transit Center General Plan Amendment, Eastern
Dublin Specific Plan Amendment, Stage 1 Planned Development Zoning, Tentative
Parcel Map, and Development Agreement (SCH 2001120395) which was certified by
City Council Resolution No. 215-02 dated November 19, 2002. The Planning
Commission finds that no further environmental review under CEQA is required for
the proposed Project because there is no substantial evidence in the record as a
whole that any of the standards under CEQA section 21166 or CEQA Guidelines
sections 15162 and 15163 for the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR
are met.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission
hereby conditionally approves PA 09-002, Vesting Tentative Tract Map 7667, to subdivide ±
4.13 acres into two lots to be further subdivided for condominium purposes. This approval shall
conform generally to: the Vesting Tentative Tract Map 7667 prepared by BKF Engineers, dated
