I 01 - 94 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN .MAKING FINDINGS REGARDING UNEXPENDED IMPACT FEES FOR FISCAL YEAR 1994-95 Recitals The City has collected fees for off-site traffic improvements needed as a result of new development, which will not be expended within five years after deposit. The improvements are described in the 1994-1999 Capital Improvement Program and include the improvements described in Recitals numbered 2 through 4 below.I Road Parallel to Southern Pacific Right-of-Way - Douqhertv Road to Dublin Boulevard, Pro~ect #9686 - Deposit #1000-331-006 This project would provide a 4-lane roadway connection between Dougherty Road and Dublin Boulevard (parallel to the Southern Pacific Railroad Right-of-Way). As of June 30, 1994, the total amount of funds collected for this project is $12,400.00. This amount was collected by the City on January 2, 1990. This project will not be needed until development in the Dougherty Valley (Contra Costa County) occurs and until the future East Dublin/Pleasanton BART station, adjacent to Camp Parks, is completed. Development in Dougherty Valley is anticipated within the next several years. The BART station is slated for completion at the end of 1995. New Street Parallel to and South of Dublin Boulevard, Pro~ect ~9687 - DeDosit #1000-331-007 This project will construct a 2-lane roadway between Golden Gate Drive and Regional Street south of and parallel to Dublin Boulevard. As of June 30, 1994, the total amount of funds collected for this project is $32,740.00. Of this amount, $4,800.00 was collected by the City on January 2, 1990. This project will be needed when the West Dublin/Pleasanton BART station is constructed. Although funding is not in place for construction of the West Dublin/Pleasanton BART station, BART is constructing the extension presently and is still committed to constructing the West Dublin/Pleasanton BART station when the funding is available. This project will also be needed when the 1-580/I-680 Measure B Interchange Improvements are constructed. Hook ramps are presently planned which will terminate in the Central Business District. It is anticipated that these improvements will be constructed by 1998. Douqhertv Road Improvements (Amador Valley Boulevard North to City Limits) Project #9689 - DeDosit #1000-331-008 This project consists of constructing the ultimate northbound lanes and median from Amador Valley Blvd. north to the City limits. As of June 30, 1994, the total amount of funds collected for this project is $9,328.00. This amount was collected by the City on January 2, 1990. This project will not be needed until development in the Dougherty Valley occurs. Although development has not yet occurred in Dougherty Valley, it is anticipated that development will occur within the next several years. Contra Costa County approved an amendment to its general plan in 1992, which would permit development in the Dougherty Valley. That amendment was challenged by two lawsuits resulting in a determination by the Superior Court that the environmental impact report for the amendment was flawed. Contra Costa County is presently preparing revisions to the environmental impact report to respond to the flaws, and it is anticipated that the Board of Supervisors will consider approval of the general plan amendment, together with a revision of the environmental impact report, within the next year. The three projects described in Recitals 2-4 above are referred to as the "Three Traffic Improvements." All of the fees described above (paragraphs 2-4) as being collected on January 2, 1990, and subject to this resolution, were collected from Dublin Meadows Partners for the Dublin Meadows multi-family housing project. A finding was made at the time the Dublin Meadows Project was approved, by Council Resolution No. 33- 89, that the fees were needed in order to finance the construction of the Three Traffic Improvements. Resolution No. 33-89 further found that the purpose of the fees was to mitigate the traffic impacts caused by the Dublin Meadows project by construction of the Three Traffic Improvements. Findinqs The Council finds, on the basis of the foregoing Recitals, that: Ae The fees which have been collected for the Three Traffic Improvements will remain unexpended as of January 2, 1995; The fees which have been collected for the Three Traffic Improvements will remain committed as of January 2, 1995, for construction of the improvements identified in the Capital Improvement Program; The purpose to which the fees will be put is for construction of the Three Traffic Improvements, as described above and in the 1994-1999 Capital Improvement Program; The fees were collected to make the Three Traffic Improvements, which improvements will mitigate traffic impacts caused by the Dublin Meadows Project; and The fees which have been collected for the Three Traffic Improvements are needed for construction of the Three Traffic Improvements.
