on approximately 1.5 acres within Phase 5 of the Fallon Gateway project:
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 not undermine the architectural character and
scale of development in which the proposed project is to be located; 2) the project will
provide a unique, varied, and distinct proposed commercial structure that is
compatible with the other structures on site; 3) the project is consistent with the
General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan Land Use designation of General
Commercial; and 4) the project complies with the development regulations
established in the Stage 1 and 2 Planned Development.
B. The proposal is consistent with the provisions of Title 8, Zoning Ordinance because:
1) the project contributes to an orderly, attractive and harmonious site and structural
development that is compatible with the existing site plan and relationship to
community and freeway-related commercial services; 2) the project complies with the
development regulations set forth in the Zoning Ordinance where applicable; and 3)
the project is consistent with the Planned Development Zoning.
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 proposed building is
suitable for the proposed use; 2) the proposed project is architecturally compatible
with the proposed buildings on site identified by the PD Guidelines; and 3) the size
and mass of the proposed structure is compatible with community commercial centers
and other buildings proposed for the site.
D. The subject site is suitable for the type and intensity of the approved development
because: 1) the site is zoned and designed for General Commercial use with regional
access and visibility from 1-580; and 2) the site has been designed with adequate
access and parking to accommodate the anticipated customer traffic in Fallon
Gateway.
E. Impacts to existing slopes and topographic features are addressed because: the site
is relatively flat and already has been rough graded in accordance with the approved
grading plan for Fallon Gateway and is accessible to vehicular traffic.
F. Architectural considerations including the character, scale and quality of the design,
site lay out, 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: exterior design of the proposed building is
consistent with architectural style elements and proposed materials previously
approved for Fallon Gateway.
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. all perimeter landscaping, entries, walls, fences, hardscape, and
parking areas are proposed for construction in accordance with the master landscape
plan.
H. The site has been adequately designed to ensure the proper circulation for bicyclist,
pedestrians and automobiles because: all infrastructures necessary to support
development of this site including pathways, sidewalks, and lighting will be
constructed as a part of the project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the
City of Dublin does hereby approve PLPA 2015-00061 Site Development Review for the
