AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT STAGE 2
DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR DUBLIN RANCH SUBAREA 3
PLPA 2013-00033
The Dublin City Council does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. RECITALS
A. Dublin Ranch Subarea 3 ("project") is in the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area and within a
planning area known as Dublin Ranch. On February 18, 2014, the City Council adopted
Ordinance 05-14 approving Planned Development rezoning and a Stage 1 Development Plan
pursuant to Section 8.32 of the Dublin Municipal Code for the 64 acre area known as Dublin
Ranch Subarea 3. The Planned Development rezoning and Stage 1 Development Plan
concurrently were approved with City Council Resolution 19-14 approving Amendments to the
General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. Planned Development rezoning established
permitted uses, development standards, and other regulations for future development for as
many as 437 residential units in six neighborhoods.
B. Planned Development Stage 2 Development Plan adopted by this Ordinance would not
require amendments to the General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan as no changes to the
land uses are proposed.
D. Planned Development Stage 2 Development Plan adopted by this Ordinance remains
subject to a Development Agreement between the City of Dublin and Lennar Homes, adopted
by Ordinance 06-14, which has an option to purchase and develop the Subarea 3 site pending
approval entitlements.
SECTION 2. FINDINGS
A. Pursuant to Section 8.32.070 of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds as follows.
1. PD-Planned Development zoning and Stage 2 Development Plan for Dublin Ranch
Subarea 3 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. PD-Planned Development zoning and Stage 2 Development Plan for 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.
EXHIBIT A TO
ATTACHMENT 1
B. Pursuant to Sections 8.120.050.A and B of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds
as follows.
1. PD-Planned Development zoning and Stage 2 Development Plan for the Project will be
harmonious and compatible with existing and future development in the surrounding area
in that the Project is located in a master planned community that includes a variety of
residential densities various as well as commercial and office spaces. The Project
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
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.
Project g
Grading on the site will ensure that much of the development is behind the small hill with
limited visibility from Interstate Highway 580 (1-580). 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. PD-Planned Development zoning and Stage 2 Development Plan for Dublin Ranch
Subarea 3 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 and Stage 2 Development Plan for Dublin
Ranch Subarea 3 are 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 (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines by
the Final Environmental Impact Report for the Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and
Specific Plan ("EIR"), which is a Program EIR (SCH No. 91-103064) certified by the City Council
by Resolution No. 51-93, subsequent Addenda dated May 4, 1993 and August 22, 1994, and by
a Negative Declaration for Dublin Ranch Areas B - E adopted by Resolution 140-97.

INTRODUCTION
VISION
The Sub Area 3 Property envisions a premier residential community nestled within the hills of
the City of Dublin. This community, surrounded by hundreds of acres of Regional Parkland,
Commercial and Retail uses, is connected to the greater Dublin community via Dublin
Boulevard to the South, Lockhart Street to the West, Central Parkway to the North and Fallon
Road to the East. The character of the community is rooted in the natural features of the site.
As a reflection of California's agrarian and ranch heritage open space and agricultural heritage
will be used throughout the community to provide a historic context.
The goal is to create the "flavor" of the new communities built around the historic past.
The guidelines in this document are conceptual, and are intended to guide in the vision of the
community.
KEY DESIGN ELEMENT
• Entry signage will reflect architectural and historic elements to define the project entry.
The entries will feature stone veneer and brick walls, slate and precast concrete walls
and planters.
• The streetscape system shall unite the community through a legible hierarchy, while
respecting the historic nature of the site.
• The trail open space system will be developed as a series of interconnecting pathways
connecting various neighborhoods and access to the "top of the hill".
• Integrated into the trail and open space system shall be a sequence of outlooks which
provide viewing opportunities and rest stations.
• The fencing and wall system maximizes views, defines neighborhoods, and reinforces
the character.
• Management of open space and maintenance of common areas will be an integral
component of the landscape system.

STREETSCAPE PLAN
DESIGN CONCEPT
The road hierarchy is designed to legitimize the structure of the community while simultaneously
supporting the rural, historic character.
MAIN ENTRY ROAD AT LOCKHART STREET AND CENTRAL PARKWAY
Collector roads flanked by parkland on the north and proposed development to the south leads
into the community. From the north, Central Parkway connects with other neighborhoods, and
existing regional parks while a Lockhart Street with existing residential to the west and proposed
development to the East leads into the community from the west.
NEIGHBORHOOD ENTRY ROADS
Entry roads into the development from the North and West lead toward the heart of the
residential community maintaining a rural ambiance with entry monuments on each side of the
road, terraced walls and planting formal groupings of trees walkways and enhanced landscape.
NEIGHBORHOOD STREETS
There are three neighborhood street conditions in the development
• Residences on both sides of the street
• Residences on one side, open space on the other
• Residences on one side, park on the other
8
ENTRY ROAD AT LOCKHART STREET AND CENTRAL PARKWAY
The Entry Roads establish the agrarian character of Sub Area 3 with an understated curvilinear
stone and brick retaining walls, clusters of Olive trees, roses, tumbling over stone or brick with
large specimen trees lining both sides of the road.
To maintain the rural theme, much of the road has been divided into two separated travel lanes
with a median containing small flowering trees, accent shrubs and water quality features. The
sidewalk on each side of the road is separated by a landscaped parkway containing a
secondary neighborhood monument in the form of a low stone wall containing neighborhood
and project name in slate tile with a precast concrete cap, low flowering ground cover accent the
planting in the parkway.
The design of this area is meant to reflect elements and materials found not only on the
architecture but to compliment adjacent neighborhoods and communities. For more detail on
the entry gateway design see Entries and Thematic Elements Chapter.
• 2- 20' travel lanes
• 8' median with flowering trees

ENTRY MONUMENTATION LOCATION PLAN
The corner monuments at Dublin Boulevard and Lockhart Street, Fallon Road and Central
Parkway establishes the graceful essence of the rural community of Sub Area 3 with a series of
neighborhood corner monuments and project entry monuments along the primary roads and
neighborhoods within the overall community. The rural and historic context is interwoven into
the community fabric with the treatment of each entry.
The gateway monument at Dublin Boulevard and Fallon Road introduces the City of Dublin from
the east. The gateway monument has been designed to utilize materials found throughout East
Dublin including stone and brick. The monument borrows aesthetics from the retail commercial
center to the south while staying true to the rural nature of the region. The monument is
highlighted by the use of a metal clover leaf panel similar to other existing panels throughout the
city. In addition, a large metal monolith with the name of the city back lit is also proposed. The
low stone walls house rambling roses while an orchard grid of flowering accent trees is
proposed behind the monument.

CORNER MONUMENTS
At Fallon Road and Central Parkway to the northeast and at Dublin Boulevard and Lockhart
Street to the south west, curvilinear stone walls with project lettering etched in tile plates
embedded into the wall with brick veneer wing walls on each side. Large specimen trees are
proposed behind the curved stone walls with low growing, spilling roses cascading down the
stone face. A line of accent trees similar to the orchard grid shall be proposed behind the brick
wing wall with cascading ground cover below. The corner monument invokes a special sense of
place that stands apart from other communities.

NEIGHBORHOOD ENTRIES
There are two neighborhood entries sited along Lockhart Street and Central Parkway. Each
entry is unique incorporating elements of the corner monuments including stone, brick and slate.
The goal at these entries is to highlight each neighborhood with a design vocabulary of
curvilinear stone veneer walls, terraced brick veneer wing walls stone veneer entry walls with
slate tile project name in the parkway, decorative lighting, and street signage integrated with
bold foliage such as carpet roses and flowering accent trees to further complement the entries.

ACCENT TREES AT CORNER MONUMENTS
Accent trees will be used at entries and corner monuments. The preferred evergreen accent
species is fruitless Olive trees which will be prominently featured at the project corners amongst
the stone and brick walls monuments. They will also be used to accent neighborhood entries in
combination with stone and brick walls, and monuments.
Accent trees such as Prunus cerasifera `Kruater vesuvius or Purple-leaf plum will be used as an
orchard grid at the corner of Fallon Road and Central Parkway to maintain consistency with the
Jordan Ranch project across Fallon Road. The orchard grid pays homage to the historic
context of the region.

ENHANCED PAVING
To enhance the roadway vehicular pavers will be added at the two entries to the site. Concrete
pavers made to look like stone in mottled tan and beige tones will tie into the stonework, which
is the backbone of the project theme. Pavers shall be designed to meet ICPI guidelines for
vehicular strength and the recommended manufacturer is Belgard, or similar.
39
LIGHTING
Lighting, an important safety component of the site also presents design opportunities which
contribute to the rural community character. The following categories of lighting will be woven
throughout the site:
STREET LIGHTING
Along the Neighborhood Entry Roads, and the Neighborhood Streets decorative single head
lights will be placed to provide required lighting levels consistent with safety and aesthetics.
The Lumec Hexagonal series, or similar, is recommended.
'fj r
TRAIL LIGHTING
The trail shall only be lighted at the interface with the future park, residential streets and at the
tot lot. Lighting will not be proposed along the trail.
FEATURE LIGHTING
Lighting can add a dramatic impact to the elegant architectural features throughout the site
including signage, the stone and brick walls, and tot lot. Such lighting shall be coordinated in the
detailed design phase of each element.
40
SIGNAGE
Integrated signage is a key component of Sub Area 3 project identification. At this preliminary
project phase sign envelopes are provided within which final logos and names will be places
later in the design process,
At the gateway a metal clove-leaf sign will be embedded into the tiered brick and stone
monument with etched lettering in a vertical panel. It is intended as a gateway to Dublin from
the east and shall be illuminated by the use of landscape accent lights and recessed lighting.
The project corner monuments shall incorporate the Sub Area 3 project name onto etched slate
tiles fastened to the stone veneer walls. The project name shall be lit by the use of landscape
spot lights mounted to the ground. Additional accent lighting shall be used to wash the walls
and the stone column.
Signage will be more subtle at the project entries where it will only be provided at the parkway
monuments only.
There is also opportunity to establish unique identity signage, neighborhood name throughout
the neigbhorhoods, especially for the multi-family product which will require a variety of way
finding and fire/police address maps.
LANDSCAPE ACCESSORIES
Landscape accessories will be woven throughout the site referencing rural uses. Decorative
elements such as seating will be provided along the pedestrian trail. Benches and bollards shall
be classic similar to those shown below to fit in with the simple elegance of Sub Area 3. Informal
seating will also be located at overlooks along the trail to provide seating. The tot lot is
designed to provide recreation in addition to the trail system.

CONTEMPORARY CRAFTSMAN
The Contemporary Craftsman style is a variation of the California Bungalow style deeply influenced by the Arts
and Crafts styles within California. Contemporary Craftsman essentially strips down and combines the many
Craftsman styles to emphasize functional comfort design. This style is most recognizable by its use of shed
roofs, clean geometric lines, large glass windows and doors, and modern interpretations of detail elements.

roofs, clean geometric lines, large glass windows and doors, and modern interpretations of detail elements.
