for a development of 48 single-family detached homes on an 11.11 acre site known as the Frederick
and Vargas properties located at 6960 and 7020 Tassajara Road:
Site Development Review:
A. The proposal is consistent with the purposes of Chapter 8.104 of the Zoning Ordinance,
with the General Plan and any applicable Specific Plans and design guidelines because: 1)
the project will be consistent with the architectural character and scale of development in
the area; 2) the project will provide a needed and attractive housing opportunity; 3) the
project is consistent with the General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan land use
designations of Medium Density Residential and Open Space; and 4) the project complies
with the development standards established in the Planned Development ordinance for the
Project.
B. The proposal is consistent with the provisions of Title 8, Zoning Ordinance because: 1) the
project contributes to orderly, attractive, and harmonious site and structural development
compatible with the intended use, proposed subdivision, and the surrounding properties;
and 2) the project complies with the development regulations set forth in the Zoning
Ordinance where applicable and as adopted for PD PLPA 2012-00051.
C. The design of the project is appropriate to the City, the vicinity, surrounding properties, and
the lot in which the project is proposed because: 1) the size and mass of the proposed
houses is consistent with other existing and approved residential development in the
surrounding area; 2) the project will contribute to housing opportunities as a complement to
the surrounding neighborhoods; and 3) the project will serve the current buyer profile and
market segment anticipated for this area.
Page 2 of 36
D. The subject site is suitable for the type and intensity of the approved development because:
1) the Project development envelope is tailored to protect the creek areas and avoids
steeper slopes, which are designated for open space; 2) the Project will implement all
applicable prior adopted mitigation measures; and 3) the project site is fully served by
public services and existing roadways.
E. Impacts to existing slopes and topographic features are addressed because: 1) the Project
is required to comply with all previously adopted mitigation measures designed to ensure
slope stability; 2) grading on the site will ensure that the site drains away from any
structures and complies with the Regional Water Quality Control Board requirements; 3)
most of the steeper areas of the site are in designated open space; and 4) retaining walls
will be constructed as required to support grade differentials between building envelopes,
and setback or right-of-way areas.
F. Architectural considerations including the character, scale and quality of the design, site
layout, the architectural relationship with the site and other buildings, screening of unsightly
uses, lighting, building materials and colors and similar elements result in a project that is
harmonious with its surroundings and compatible with other developments in the vicinity
because: 1) the Project provides a high degree of design and landscaping to complement
existing uses in the area.; 2) the structures reflect the architectural styles and development
standards in the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan for residential buildings in the area; 3) the
materials proposed will be consistent with the requirements of the Eastern Dublin Specific
Plan; and 4) the color and materials proposed will be coordinated among the structures on
site.
G. Landscape considerations, including the location, type, size, color, texture and coverage of
plant materials, and similar elements have been incorporated into the project to ensure
visual relief, adequate screening and an attractive environment for the public because: 1)
generous landscaping is proposed to buffer the proposed noise barrier, providing an
attractive view from Tassajara Road; and 2) landscaping in common areas is coordinated
through a series of sidewalks; 3) common area open space has been provided in the form
of two internal private open space areas; and 4) the project will conform to the
requirements of the Stage 2 Development Plan and the Water Efficient Landscape
Ordinance.
H. The site has been adequately designed to ensure the proper circulation for bicyclist,
pedestrians, and automobiles because: 1) the project site provides opportunities for
pedestrian and bicycle circulation; 2) the project will provide a public path along the
westerly and southerly open space areas of the site.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Dublin hereby makes the
following findings and determinations regarding Vesting Tentative Tract Map 8133:
Vesting Tentative Tract Map 8133
A. The proposed Vesting Tentative tract Map 8133 is consistent with the intent of applicable
subdivision regulations and related ordinances for the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan.
B. The design and improvements of the proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map 8133 are
consistent with the General Plan and the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, as amended, as they
Page 3 of 36
relate to the subject property in that it is a subdivision for implementation consistent with
adjacent residential neighborhoods designated for this type of development.
C. The proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map 8133 is consistent with the Planned Development
zoning approved for Project through the Planned Development zoning adopted for this project
and therefore consistent with the City of Dublin Zoning Ordinance.
D. The properties created by the proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map 8133 will have adequate
access to major constructed or planned improvements as part of the Eastern Dublin Specific
Plan.
E. Project design, architecture, and concept have been integrated with topography of the project
site created by the Vesting Tentative Tract Map 8133 to incorporate water quality measures
and minimize overgrading and extensive use of retaining walls. Therefore, the proposed
subdivision is physically suitable for the type and intensity of development proposed.
F. The Mitigation Measures adopted with the program EIR for the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan
and with the prior MNDs would be applicable as appropriate for addressing or mitigating any
potential environmental impacts of the Project.
G. The proposed Vesting Tentative Map 8133 will not result in environmental damage or
substantially injure fish or wildlife or their habitat or cause public health concerns subject to
Mitigation Measures and Conditions of Approval.
H. The design of the subdivision will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large,
or access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. The City Engineer has
reviewed the map and title report and has not found any conflicting easements of this nature.
