RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Plan Amendment Study

DESCRIPTION:
After recent discussion with the Staffs of Alameda County an~ the City
of Pleasanton, and with property owners in the Eastern Extended Planning Area,
the Staff has identified a potential alignment of the Dublin Boulevard
extension that is different than that shown in the Dublin General Plan. In
the existing Dublin General Plan, adopted in February, 1985, the Dublin
Boulevard extension between the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way and
Tassajara Road is approximately 1,250 feet north of 1-580 (See Map of Dublin
General Plan Extended Planning Area). This area is now within the Dublin
City Limits. The realignment of this portion of the Dublin Boulevard
Extension would be further to the north at approximately 2,750 feet north and
parallel to 1-580 (see Map of Potential Alignment of Dublin Boulevard
Extension).
The realignment may provide for a better land use pattern and better
roadway network in the area. It may avoid being too close to the 1-580
interchanges. That situation is part of the traffic problem at both Dublin
Boulevard/Dougherty Road and Dublin Boulevard/San Ramon Road. Moving the
alignment away from the 1-580 interchanges would provide more stacking space
and more room for lane changes.
The realignment may also meet the federal requirement for either a
frontage road or an arterial parallel to 1-580 north of the proposed Hacienda
Drive Interchange. If the Dublin Boulevard Extension can be built at the same
time as the proposed Hacienda Drive interchange, Dublin Boulevard could serve
as the frontage road instead of one that extends from Scarlett Court to
Tassajara Road.
For the portion of the Dublin Boulevard Extension between the Southern
Pacific Right-of-Way and Dougherty Road, the existing Dublin General Plan
policies are adequate and Staff is working on a plan line to implement the
General Plan policies. The alignment of the rest of the Dublin Boulevard
Extension east of Tassajara Road will be considered in the East Dublin General
Plan Amendment Study.
It would be appropriate for the City Council to authorize the General
Plan Amendment Study to consider a realignment of the Dublin Boulevard
Extension between the Southern Pacific Right-of-Way and Tassajara Road.
