DESCRIPTION' City Staff has been working on various alignments for the extension of Dublin Boulevard between Dougherty Road and the Southern Pacific Right-of-Way and is scheduling the alignment for Planning Commission review in March of this year. Staff met with the parties controlling the Bridgepoint property (located just north of Crown Isuzu on Dougherty Road), and it was pointed out that if the property were resubdivided so that the frontage of the deep lots were on the extension of Dublin Blvd. rather than on the cul-de-sac extension of Sierra Lane, the value of the property would be epJnanced. ~ John Moore a~ees to this concept and, in addition, has volunteered to dedicate and improve a strip of land equal to that required by the extension of and in lieu of the land dedicated as Sierra Lane. He has further indicated he would work with the City to attempt to form an assessment district to complete the improvements from Dougherty Road to the Southern Pacific Right- of-Way and to include a road connection from the Dublin Boulevard Extension to Scarlett Court. Mr. Moore has requested that the City investigate the feasibility of forming an assessment district for circulation improvements in the Scarlett Court area. - / ,~ / COPIES TO: John P.

As you know, I am in a joint venture With Art'Bridges to develop ':--his fourteen (14 ~ ) acres that front Dougherty Road, We are-_extremely interested in assisting the City concerning the extension of "Dublin Blvd and Scarlett Court connection. Not only will this -improvement work benefit our property, but it will unquestionably benefit- all surrounding properties and the City. .. Toward this end, we are prepared to dedicate and improve at no cost to the City a 78.5' right-of-way on our property for the extension cf Dublin Blvd. We would expect that this work would be done in Spring of 1988. Further, we would request that the City investigate the possibility of using an Assessment District to extend Dublin Blvd. ~across Dougherty to connect with the portion of Dublin Blvd. we intend to construct on our property and improve to public street standards the connection between Dublin Blvd. and Scarlett Court. This work would (1) improve immensely the traffic circulation for the affected area (2) significantly increase the value of existing property by increasing the quality of uses on existing property, and (3) assist the City in its planned extension of Dublin Blvd. We would be happy to work with the City in connection with all aspects of this request.
