XX— 14 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN REZONING DUBLIN RANCH SUBAREA 3 TO A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ZONING DISTRICT AND APPROVING A RELATED STAGE 1 DEVELOPMENT PLAN PLPA 2013-00033 The Dublin City Council does ordain as follows: SECTION 1. RECITALS A. Dublin Ranch Subarea 3 ("project") is in Dublin Ranch Area B in the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area. On October 10, 1994, the City Council adopted Ordinance 4-94 prezoning the 1,538 acre Dublin Ranch to PD-Planned Development in accordance with the 1993 Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. Following annexation of Dublin Ranch, the City Council adopted Ordinance 24-97 on December 2, 1997 rezoning Dublin Ranch Areas B-E to PD-Planned Development and adopting the then-required Land Use and Development Plan (LUDP) by Resolution 141-97. The LUDP established permitted uses, development standards and other regulations for future development of Areas B-E. Subarea 3 was anticipated for up to 485 units. B. The PD-Planned Development zoning for the project would supersede Ordinance 24-97 as to the Subarea 3 project area. SECTION 2. FINDINGS A. Pursuant to Section 8.32.070 of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds as follows. 1. The Dublin Ranch Subarea 3 PD-Planned Development zoning meets the purpose and intent of Chapter 8.32 in that it provides a comprehensive development plan that creates a desirable use of land that is sensitive to surrounding land uses by virtue of the layout and design of the site plan. 2. Development of the Project under the PD-Planned Development zoning will be harmonious and compatible with existing and future development in the surrounding area in that it provides residential development in an area that supports residential uses, such as the sports park to the north, but is also a transition to planned medical center and mixed uses to the south and east. The Project provides a high degree of design and landscaping to complement existing and planned uses in the area. B. Pursuant to Sections 8.120.050.A and B of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds as follows. 1. The PD-Planned Development zoning for the Project will be harmonious and compatible with existing and future development in the surrounding area in that it provides residential development in an area that supports residential uses, and the sports park to the north, but is also a transition to planned medical center and mixed uses to the EXHIBIT A TO ATTACHMENT 2 south and east. The Project provides a high degree of design and landscaping to complement existing and planned uses in the area. 2. The Project takes advantage of the flatter areas of the site to locate development. Grading on the site will ensure that much of the development is behind the small hill and not visible from Hwy. 580. The project site is in an infill area that is fully served by public services and existing roadways. There are no major physical or topographic constraints and thus the site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the proposed residential development. 3. The PD-Planned Development zoning will not adversely affect the health or safety of persons residing or working in the vicinity, or be detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare in that the project will comply with all applicable development regulations and standards. 4. The PD-Planned Development zoning is consistent with and in conformance with the Dublin General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, as amended, in that the proposed residential and other uses and the site plan are consistent with the land use designations for the site approved in connection with the Project. C. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the City Council adopted a CEQA addendum to the Eastern Dublin EIR and 1997 Negative Declaration, as set forth in Resolution xx-14 on , 2014, which resolution is incorporated herein by reference. SECTION 3. ZONING MAP AMENDMENT Pursuant to Chapter 8.32, Title 8 of the City of Dublin Municipal Code the City of Dublin Zoning Map is amended to rezone the property described below ("Property") to a Planned Development Zoning District: 64 acres at the northwest corner of Dublin Boulevard and Fallon Road, (APN 985-0027- 012) A map of the rezoning area is shown below: LOTS& ` 'r SUB AREA 3 r r r 1 M .
