NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE Dublin Planning Commission does hereby find that no new environmental impacts could occur as a result of the realignment and no new mitigation measures would be required. The Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the Addendum dated August 30, 1996, together with the Mitigated Negative Declaration (both available and on file in the Planning Department) and finds that these documents reflect the independent judgment of the Planning Commission and the City as lead agency. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT THE Dublin Planning Commission does hereby find that: A. The proposed area where the right of way is proposed is within the City of Dublin and is subject to the General Plan of the City of Dublin and Downtown Specific Plan. B. The property through which the proposed right of way passes is located within an area designated Retail/Office and Public/Semi Public Facility in the Dublin General Plan and Development Zones 2 and 3 of the Downtown Specific Plan, and is proposed to be developed for circulation purposes in a manner consistent with those designations, and therefore the establishment of a right of way across that land is consistent with regard to location and purpose with the Dublin General Plan and Downtown Specific Plan. C. The property through which the right of way passes and will be developed for circulation purposes is within the physical scope of the Dublin General Plan and the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, and the extent of the proposed realignment is consistent with the approved right of way because it merely adjusts the location and does not change the size or capacity of the roadway. PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 24th day of September, 1996.
