Report prepared by Rod Barger, Senior Planner. EXHIBITS ATTACHED: Exhibit A: Alameda County Board of Supervisors Ordinance No. 0-89-3, An Ordinance Amending Chapter 2 of Title 8 of the Alameda County Ordinance Relating to Zoning. Background Attachments: 1. Vicinity Map �Zla RECOMMENDATION: 1. Receive Staff Presentation 2. Deliberate 3. Provide direction to Staff so that the appropriate action can be taken I. BACKGROUND On January 5, 1989, the Alameda County Board of Supervisors approved the rezoning of an 8.5 acre parcel located at 8555 Dublin Canyon Road (on the south side of I-580, approximately 1.2 miles east of Palo Verde/Eden Canyon Roads, between Castro Valley and Dublin) . The site is just west of the City of Pleasanton's western Sphere of Influence boundary line. The rezoning changed the land use from the A (Agricultural) District to the PD (Planned Development) District. The PD District allows Agricultural District uses (subject to the regulations of that District) and also allows as a Conditional Use, the open storage of recreational vehicles and boats. The rezoning will be effective on February 5, 1989. The County approved the rezoning based upon a conceptual plan showing an open asphalt paved storage yard containing 200 parking spaces. The use would be located on a flat portion of the site that was at one time used to dump landfill during construction of I-580. Ten to twelve foot high earth mounds would be provided to screen the use from the view of surrounding residents and commuters on I-580. Even with this mounding, County Staff feels the use would still be visible from I-580 as well as by surrounding residences. The subiect property is presently used as a contractor's storage yard. In order to legally permit the storage of recreational vehicles and boats, a Conditional Use Permit application must be submitted to the County for consideration by the Alameda County Zoning Administrator. The CUP application must substantially comply with the development standards shown in the Board of Supervisors Ordinance No. 0-89-3, as well as substantially conform with the conceptual plan submitted with the rezoning request. County Staff indicated ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ITEM NO. -1- anticipate that it will be submitted for consideration by the Zoning Administrator in the immediate future. The Council will have an opportunity to voice their concerns on the proposed storage yard through the Public Hearing process. II. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Council discuss this issue and provide direction to Staff so that appropriate action can be taken. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ITEM NO. -2- i ORDINANCE NO. 0-89-3 `� AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 2 OF TITLE 8 OF THE ALAMEDA C J44,l ORDINANCE CODE RELATING TO ZONING , `!1 The Board of Supervisors of the County of Alameda, State of California, - : ordain as follows: SECTION I Chapter 2 of Title 8 of the Alameda County Ordinance Code is hereby amended in the following manner: one parcel containing approximately 8.45 acres, located at 8555 Dublin Canyon Road, south side, approximately 1.2 miles east of the intersection with Palo Verde Road, between Castro Valley and Dublin; bearing County Assessor's designation: 85A-800-8-1; as shown on the map labelled "1833rd Zoning Unit, Exhibit A, dated August 23, 1988;" on file with the Alameda County Planning Commission at 399 Elmhurst Street, Hayward, California, is hereby rezoned to the the PD (Planned Development) District allowing the following: A.
