A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN
APPROVING PA 02-041 FOR GENERAL PLAN AND
EASTERN DUBLIN SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMENTS TO CHANGE
THE LAND USE DESIGNATION FOR SITE 15A TO CAMPUS OFFICE
WHEREAS, the Alameda County Surplus Property Authority has requested approval of
General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan Amendments to change the land use designations for
Site 1 SA, an approximately 11.36 acre property located on the northeast comer of Dublin Boulevard
and Arnold Drive, from High Density Residential to Campus Office, as shown on Exhibits A and B,
attached hereto and incorporated by reference; and
WHEREAS, uses allowed by the Campus Office Land Use Designation include professional and
administrative offices, technical data centers and computer serving facilities, training and conference
centers, corporate offices and headquarters, research and development laboratories and offices, parking
structures, support structures and other similar non-governmental uses. A courthouse facility would not
be a permitted use in the Campus Office designation; and
WHEREAS, the project site is in Eastern Dublin for which the City adopted the Eastern Dublin
General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan to provide a comprehensive planning framework for future
development of the area. In connection with this approval, the City certified a program EIR pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines section 15168 (SCH: 91103064, Resolution 51-93, and Addendum dated August 22,
1994, hereafter "Eastern Dublin EIR" or "program EIR") which is available for review in the Planning
Department and is incorporated herein by reference. The program EIR was integral to the planning
process and examined the direct and indirect effects, cumulative impacts, broad policy alternatives, and
area wide mitigation measures for developing Eastern Dublin; and
WHEREAS, the City prepared an Initial Study to evaluate site-specific impacts of the Site 15A
project to a greater level of detail than in the program EIR. Based on the Initial Study, the City prepared
and circulated a Mitigated Negative Declaration; and
WHEREAS, following the public review period for the Mitigated Negative Declaration, the
original applicants withdrew from the project whereupon the Surplus Property Authority as property
owner determined to continue the application review process for the General Plan and Specific Plan
amendment portions of the application; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider the Mitigated Negative
Declaration and the project on March 11, 2003. The Planning Commission adopted Resolution 03-06
recommending adoption of the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Resolution 03-07 recommending
approval of the Site 15A General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan amendments, both of which
resolutions are incorporated herein by reference; and
WHEREAS, a staff report dated March 25, 2003 and incorporated herein by reference, described
and analyzed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Site 15A project, and was considered by the
City Council, together with the Mitigated Negative Declaration (including comments and responses), the
Planning Commission recommendations and all written and oral testimony at a duly noticed public
hearing on March 25, 2003 at which time all interested parties had an opportunity to be heard; and
WHEREAS, on March 25, 2003, the City Council adopted Resolution xx-03, incorporated herein
by reference, adopting the Mitigated Negative Declaration, a Statement of Overriding Considerations and
a Mitigation Monitoring Program for the Site 15A project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the foregoing recitals are true and correct and
made a part of this resolution.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council does hereby find that approval of the Site
15A General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan amendments are in the public interest and that the
General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan as so amended will remain internally consistent.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council does hereby approve the General Plan and
Eastern Dublin Specific Plan amendments to change the land use designations for Site 15A from High
Density Residential to Campus Office, as further set forth in Exhibits A and B, attached hereto and
incorporated by reference.
