Costs to the City as a result of development of the road would depend on the financing mechanism selected for this project. A separate action would be required by the City Council to authorize financing the project. DESCRIPTION: This ordinance was introduced at a public hearing on April 11, 1988. Several questions were raised by the public and were answered. No protests were made. The existing General Plan identifies the general location of the Dublin Boulevard extension with an implementing policy to develop a plan line for a six-lane divided extension from Dougherty Road to Parks RFTA boundary (Parks RFTA is co-terminus with the Southern Pacific right-of-way) . This roadway extension is proposed as a six-lane facility to serve as an arterial to the extended planning area east of Dougherty Road. This road is the only connection to the extended planning area shown in the General Plan. The Dublin Boulevard extension is ultimately planned to extend through the extended planning area and to tie into North Canyons Parkway in the City of Livermore. Dublin Boulevard will serve as a frontage road to I-580. The adoption of a right-of-way line for the extension of Dublin Boulevard will reserve the area specified in the proposed ordinance for the extension of Dublin Boulevard. Adoption of this ordinance will not result in immediate acquisition of any property; its effect is to prohibit construction of buildings in the designated area (Ordinance No. 44-87) and to require dedication of the right-of-way under certain circumstances upon future construction (Ordinance No. 11-88) . At the public hearing, concern was expressed by Lew Doty regarding the impact of the proposed extension on his property. The extension would require removal of the service building at the rear of the parcel and a 31-1/2 foot strip of land which is now under the building. Mr. Doty's concern was that ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM NO. ��r,>j COPIES TO: Property Owners �j General Motors may require a dealership to maintain a specific size facility and that the remaining parcel may not be large enough to satisfy the requirement. The City Attorney addressed this concern and spoke at length regarding the statutes pertaining to condemnation of commercial property. John Moore, one of the developers of the Bridgepoint properties (the vacant land which would lie along part of the north side of the extension), spoke in favor of the extension. This property now has its legal frontage on the unimproved extension of Sierra Lane. If the land dedicated to the extension of Sierra Lane is "exchanged" for an equal amount for the dedication and improvement of the Dublin Boulevard extension, the properties would enjey a more desirable frontage on Dublin Boulevard and would dedicate 78.5 feet of right of way, leaving 31.5 feet to be obtained from the properties to the south. Mr. Moore is also in favor of forming an assessment district for construction of the road; this possibility is currently being studied by tha City (as previously authorized by the City Council) . The alignment of a north-south connecting street between Dublin Boulevard extension and Scarlett Court is needed to improve circulation in the project area, as the close proximity of the Scarlett Court intersection to the Dougherty Road intersection will require that access to Scarlett Court become right-turn-in and right-turn-out, with a median barrier on the Dublin Boulevard Extension. Several properties east of the Scarlett Court/Dublin Boulevard intersection were examined. Most of the properties had structures or other improvements placed in a manner which would require removal of the improvements. However, adjacent to and west of the Alameda County Flood Control channel is a private road (32.76 feet wide) which could provide access. On the east side of the flood control channel is a private access easement. Individually, neither one of these accessways is of sufficient width for a public street. Together, they could serve as a one-way couplet. This alignment has a minimal impact on existing businesses, as the alignment and right-of-way are currently being used for traffic. In addition, the channel meets Scarlett Court around the midpoint of its length, making access to the connecting road centralized. The Staff report for the April 11th meeting contained an error in the description of the description of the effect of the extension on Assessor Parcel Numbers 941-50-9-15 and 10-13 (Crown Isuzu) . The Staff report indicated that the project would remove a triangle of land approximately 100 feet long and 3 feet wide. The actual land required from this parcel is 100 feet long and 30 feet wide on the Scarlett Court frontage, which is now being used to display cars. Timing of the improvement of the Dublin Boulevard extension may be dependent upon demand from development of the extended planning area to the east. That development may be two to five years from now. If an assessment district is formed, the roadway could be designed and built within a one year time period. Preliminary estimated costs to acquire property, relocate businesses (and residents) , design the improvements, and construct the roadwav would be about $8,200,000. These costs represent approximately $6.8 million for the Dublin Boulevard extension and $1.4 million for the connecting road between Scarlett Court and Dublin Boulevard. Several options exist for paying for this project, including an assessment district of the adjacent property owners and off-site improvement requirements for future development to the east. Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, waive the reading, and adopt the ordinance establishing right-of-way lines for the extension of Dublin Boulevard between Dougherty Road and the Southern Pacific Right-of-Way and for a connecting road between the Dublin Boulevard extension and Scarlett Court. -2- ORDINANCE NO. -88 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN --------------------------------------------- ESTABLISHING RIGHT-OF-WAY LINES FOR THE EXTENSION OF DUBLIN BOULEVARD BETWEEN DOUGHERTY ROAD AND THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD RIGHT-OF-WAY AND FOR A STREET CONNECTING THE DUBLIN BOULEVARD EXTENSION WITH SCARLETT COURT The City Council of the City of Dublin does ordain as follows: WHEREAS, the City Council adopted a Resolution calling for a public hearing to consider future right-of-way lines for the extension of Dublin Boulevard between Dougherty Road and the Southern Pacific Railroad Right-of-Way and for a street connecting the Dublin Boulevard Extension with Scarlett Court (Resolution No. 41-88) and set a public hearing for April 11, 1988 at 7:30 p.m. to hear objections to the establishment of said right-of-way lines; and WHEREAS, notice of said public hearing was duly given; and WHEREAS, no protests were made either in writing or orally to the establishment of said right-of-way lines; NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council finds and ordains that: Section 1.
