The Eastern Dublin EIR identified significant impacts from development of the Eastern Dublin area, some of which could not be mitigated to less than significant. Upon approval of the Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan, the City Council adopted mitigations, a mitigation monitoring program and a Statement of Overriding Considerations (Resolution 53-93, incorporated herein by reference); and WHEREAS, the City prepared a Supplemental EIR in 2002 for the 1,120-acre East Dublin Property Owners (EDPO) project in Eastern Dublin, including the Jordan Ranch property ("2002 SEIR", SCH # 2001052114). The 2002 SEIR assessed the impacts of annexing these properties to the City of Dublin and the Dublin San Ramon Services District, detaching the properties from ATTACHMENT 1 the Livermore Area Parks and Recreation District, prezoning the properties to the PD-Planned Development district and adopting a related Stage 1 Development Plan for future development of residential, retail, office, open space and other uses. The SEIR was certified on April 2, 2002 by City Council Resolution No. 40-02; and WHEREAS, in 2005 the City prepared a second Supplemental EIR to analyze the Fallon Village project, consisting of a General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan amendment, and a PD-rezoning and revised Stage 1 Development Plan for the same properties as the EDPO project, including the Jordan Ranch site. The second SEIR ("2005 SEIR", SCH #2005062010) was certified on December 5, 2005 by City Council Resolution No. 222-05. The 2005 SEIR analyzed the revised Stage 1 Development Plan, including a maximum of 1,064 units on the Jordan Ranch site, at a programmatic level anticipating that the analysis would be used for approval of future development projects unless project or other changes were to require additional environmental review under CEQA section 21166 and related CEQA Guidelines sections 15162 and 15163; and WHEREAS, on June 1, 2010, the City Council adopted Resolution 80-10 approving an Addendum to the 2002 SEIR and 2005 SEIR prepared pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) relating to the PD-Planned Development Stage 2 Development Plan which included a reduction in the number of units approved previously for Jordan Ranch from 1,064 units to 780 units. The Addendum and Resolution found that the Project impacts had been adequately addressed in previously certified EIRs and that no further environmental review would be required; and WHEREAS, this Site Development Review (SDR) is in compliance with the previous environmental documents referenced above, and WHEREAS, the application and all of the above resolutions, ordinances, the Addendum, Initial Study, Eastern Dublin EIR, 2002 SEIR, and 2005 SEIR are incorporated by reference and are available on file for public review during normal business hours at the Community Development Department, Dublin City Hall, 100 Civic Plaza, Dublin, CA. WHEREAS, on February 26, 2013, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing on said applications for this project; and WHEREAS, proper notice of said public hearing was given in all respects as required by law; and WHEREAS, a Staff Report was submitted recommending that the Planning Commission approve the Site Development Review Amendment to add a fourth floor plan to the existing 81 detached single-family residential units for Windwood and approve the Site Development Review to use the four floor plans on the remaining 87 lots within Neighborhood 1 of Jordan Ranch; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hear and use their independent judgment and considered all said reports, recommendations, and testimony hereinabove set forth.
