The meeting was called to order at 7: 34 p.m. , by Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder. ROLL CALL PRESENT: Councilmembers Hegarty, Jeffery, Snyder, Vonheeder. ABSENT: Mayor Moffatt. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE The Mayor Pro Tempore led the Council, Staff and those present in the pledge of allegiance to the flag. PROCLAMATION - EARTH DAY 1990 Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder read a proclamation declaring April 22 , 1990 as "Earth Day 1990" and urged all citizens to participate in events and activities scheduled to educate all citizens on the importance of acting in an environmentally sensitive fashion by recycling, conserving energy and water, using efficient transportation, and adopting a more ecologically sound lifestyle. The proclamation was presented to Marjorie LaBar. * * * * PROCLAMATION - CLEAN AIR WEEK Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder read a proclamation declaring May 7-13, 1990 as "Clean Air Week" and urged all residents to participate on May 10, 1990 as a "Don't Drive Alone Day" . The proclamation was presented to Grace Hardy representing the Lung Association. * * * * Directly Elected Mayor Bill Foster, 8171 Brittany Drive, addressed the Council related to his request that Dublin consider having a directly elected Mayor. He clarified errors contained in the newspaper article which appeared in the Valley Times on April 3 , 1990. He requested that this topic be placed on the agenda. This issue was brought up about a year ago, and failed because of a lack of a second to a motion made by a Council- member at that time. Therefore, the only way to have the subject reopened was to appear before the City Council and request that it be placed on an agenda. Mr. Foster stated he is an advocate of Dublin CM - VOL 9 - 76 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- COPIES TO: ITEM NO. N • 1 having an elected Mayor. There are advantages to having this an elected position rather than selected. Currently, the Mayor is the Chair rather than a Mayor. The majority of the cities surrounding Dublin have elected Mayors. He felt there was a problem with the City Council in the area of being able to appoint the allotted number of people to the various commissions and committees, but an elected Mayor would have appointment power to do this. When someone is speaking on behalf of the City of Dublin, they should be an elected official. He did not feel that the Mayor is actually speaking as Mayor, but rather as a Councilmember. Mr. Foster stated he was not in favor of an initiative, but would rather have the politicians who know how things work establish a good choice so that people have the right to choose whether we should have an elected Mayor. Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder requested that City Manager Ambrose go over the process by which this issue could be discussed. Mr. Ambrose explained that by a unanimous vote, the Council could choose to put this topic on the agenda at this meeting. They could also request Staff to place it on a future agenda. The City ' Council rules say that in order to reopen discussion on this topic, it must be done by one of the members who voted against it. The Council was silent and no further discussion took place relative to this issue. * * * * Development Sign Lisa Roberts, 7659 Quail Creek Circle requested that the City look into a sign which was placed by a developer at Willow Creek Drive & Shady Creek Road advertising the development. She asked that the sign be removed. Planning Director Tong advised that his department would review this. * * * * CONSENT CALENDAR On motion of Cm. Snyder, seconded by Cm. Jeffery, .and by unanimous vote (Mayor Moffatt absent) , the Council took the following actions: Approved Minutes of Regular Meeting of March 26, 1990 and Adjourned Regular (Goals & Objectives) Meeting of March 27, 1990; Authorized a budget transfer ($6, 990) from unallocated reserves to make the second installment payment to the County for the Nonpoint Source Water Pollution Program; CM - VOL 9 - 77 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 Adopted RESOLUTION NO. 36 - 90 DIRECTING PREPARATION OF ANNUAL REPORT FOR STREET LIGHTING MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT DISTRICT 83-1 Adopted RESOLUTION NO. 37 - 90 DIRECTING PREPARATION OF ANNUAL REPORT FOR LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 86-1 (TRACT 5511) Adopted RESOLUTION NO. 38 - 90 DIRECTING PREPARATION OF ANNUAL REPORT FOR LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 83-2 (TRACT 4719) Authorized the City Clerk's attendance at the 44th Annual Interna- tional Institute of Municipal Clerks Conference being held in Little Rock, Arkansas on May 20-24, 1990; Accepted the City Treasurer's Investment Report for period ending March 31, 1990; Adopted RESOLUTION NO. 39 - 90 AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 137-89, ANNEXATION APPLICATION HANSEN HILL RANCH/BREN CO.

The Committee is composed of one representative nominated by the parents groups from each school site, one representative from the CM - VOL 9 - 78 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 District Advisory Council for the School Based Coordination Program, one representative from the Dublin Chamber of Commerce, one from the Valley Teachers Association (Dublin Caucus) , one from the California School Employees' Association, and one representative from the City of Dublin. The District has. requested that the City submit the name of a representative and also an alternate no later than May 8, 1990. By a consensus, the Council selected Cm. Snyder to serve as the City's representative and Cm. Jeffery as alternate on this Committee. PUBLIC HEARING - REPEAL OF 94' PASSENGER LOADING ZONE AND ESTABLISHMENT OF 35' NO PARKING ZONE ON VILLAGE PARKWAY AT POST OFFICE Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder opened the public hearing. Traffic Engineer Kinzel advised that the U.S. Post Office on Village Parkway has moved its drop-off mailboxes inside the parking lot, eliminating the need for an existing passenger loading zone along the curb in front of the property. In order to provide visibility for vehicles exiting the parking lot, City Staff recommended prohibiting parking adjacent to the exit driveway. Lenora Holmes stated she felt the Post Office is very short of parking spaces and it is always crowded during all hours of the day. She questioned what changes, if any, this would mean in terms of parking spaces. Mr. Kinzel advised that a certain area on the street which was formerly restricted to loading will now be available for parking. Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder asked if the street parking would be limited in time. If not, someone could leave their car there all day. Mr. Kinzel advised that Staff could monitor it and if there is a problem, limited parking could be instigated. Harry Short advised that he lives behind the Post Office. He did not feel the parking should be non-restricted, but rather that it should be 5-10 minutes maximum. Mr. Kinzel advised that 20 minutes is the normal short term parking. Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder questioned if the Council could begin the process tonight to limit the time. She felt that the City is asking for problems otherwise. City Attorney Nave stated that it would require a Resolution, but could be introduced tonight. Mr. Short advised that the car wash accumulates a lot of parking also. CM - VOL 9 - 79 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 Cm. Jeffery felt that there are certain times of the year when you cannot get in and out of the Post. Office in 20 minutes. Cm. Hegarty agreed and felt that even 1/2 hour is not long enough at certain times of the year. He stated he would hate to be parked in a 20 minute time zone and run out of time just as he is approaching the window for his turn at the Post Office. Mr. Kinzel advised that a green zone allows 20 minutes and the next step is 60 minutes. Cm. Snyder questioned when was the last time anyone saw a meter maid in Dublin. Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder closed the public hearing. Cm. Hegarty stated he would like to see the time limit set at 1/2 hour. City Manager Ambrose advised that the Ordinance would repeal the passenger loading zone and there would be a waiting period after the second reading of the Ordinance. On motion of Cm. Jeffery, seconded by Cm. Snyder, and by majority vote (Mayor Moffatt absent) , the Council directed Staff to revise the Ordinance repealing the passenger loading zone to designate this area as a 20-minute parking zone and adopted RESOLUTION NO. 40 - 90 DESIGNATING A NO PARKING ZONE ON THE EAST SIDE OF VILLAGE PARKWAY (to become effective on the effective date of above Ordinance) Cm. Hegarty voted against this motion. * * * * PUBLIC HEARING FIRST WESTERN DEVELOPMENT PD, PLANNED DEVELOPMENT REZONING PA 89-050 Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder opened the public hearing. Planning Director Tong advised that on March 26, 1990, the City Council adopted Resolutions approving the Negative Declaration, Traffic Impact Fees and PD General Provisions and introduced an Ordinance amending the Zoning Ordinance for the Planned Development Rezoning for First Western Development. The application involves the rezoning of the approximate 7 acre site located at the southeast corner of Amador Valley Boulevard and Amador Plaza Road from C-1 to PD Planned Development. No comments were made by members of the public relative to this item. CM - VOL 9 - 80 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder closed the public hearing. On motion of Cm. Snyder, seconded by Cm. Jeffery, and by unanimous vote (Mayor Moffatt absent) , the Council waived the reading and adopted ORDINANCE NO. 3 - 90 AMENDING THE ZONING ORDINANCE TO PERMIT THE REZONING OF REAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF AMADOR VALLEY BOULEVARD AND AMADOR PLAZA ROAD, 7450 AMADOR VALLEY BOULEVARD * * * * PUBLIC HEARING-DESIGNATION OF SHADY CREEK ROAD AS A "THROUGH STREET" AND ESTABLISHMENT OF NO PARKING ZONES ON SHADY CREEK ROAD @ CROSSRIDGE ROAD AND QUAIL CREEK CIRCLE Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder opened the public hearing. Traffic Engineer Kinzel advised that in response to a request from 2 residents, TJKM conducted a study of Shady Creek Road between Crossridge Road and Willow Creek Drive and recommended installation of several improvements for safety reasons. These safety improvements include 1) installation of stop signs on both Quail Creek Circle and Squirrel Creek Circle at Shady Creek Road; 2) painting a' double yellow centerline around the curve from Shady Creek Road onto Crossridge Road in order to delineate the lanes; 3) installation of a curve warning sign and 20 mph advisory sign for westbound traffic in advance of the Shady Creek Road/Crossridge Road curve; 4) prune landscaping within the City's maintenance easement just east of Quail Creek Circle; and 5) establish 50' no parking zones along the north side of Shady Creek Road at the Crossridge Road and Quail Creek Circle intersections for sight distance. Cm. Jeffery asked if people park on Shady Creek Road near the bushes where it is proposed to paint the curb red. Mr. Kinzel advised that most people would not park at that particular location. Mark Roberts, 7659 Quail Creek Circle passed around 2 pictures which were taken near the bushes and stated he generally agreed with Staff's recommendations. He requested that the 50' proposed no parking zone be extended to 75' and also that a red zone be placed on the other side of the street for 501 . Don Scott, 7711 Squirrel Creek Circle stated he agreed with Mr. Roberts and additionally, thought there should be red curbs on Shady Creek Road between Squirrel Creek Circle and Quail Creek Circle. The north side of the street has become a collection point for various cars and trucks. CM - VOL 9 - 81 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 Cm. Snyder questioned if any of the cars appearing in the photographs had been there for any length of time. He felt that a secondary problem was becoming apparent; not only a visibility problem, but a parking problem as well. Lisa Roberts did not feel the stop signs should be placed, as everyone stops anyway. Cm. Hegarty questioned if there was a stop sign at Alamo Creek Drive and Shady Creek Road. Staff responded yes. Cm. Hegarty stated that it was very unusual for residents to say they do not want stop signs. Mr. Kinzel explained that the people most affected are the residents. People new to the area are the ones who might not be as familiar with the area, and would therefore benefit. Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder closed the public hearing. On motion of Cm. Hegarty, seconded by Cm. Jeffery, and by unanimous vote (Mayor Moffatt absent) , the Council adopted RESOLUTION NO. 41 - 90 DESIGNATING SHADY CREEK ROAD AS A THROUGH STREET and RESOLUTION NO. 42 - 90 DESIGNATING NO PARKING ZONES ON THE NORTH SIDE OF SHADY CREEK ROAD The no parking zones were to be extended from 50' to 75' on Shady Creek Road from the easterly curbline of Quail Creek Circle, plus the entire area on Shady Creek Road between Quail Creek Circle and Squirrel Creek Circle was also to be designated a no parking zone. Cm. Snyder asked that the Police Department do some parking enforcement in the interim period, as well as long term. PUBLIC HEARING NO PARKING ZONE ON BLOOMINGTON WAY @ BECKETT WAY Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder opened the public hearing. Traffic Engineer Kinzel advised that in response to a request from a resident, TJKM conducted a study of the Bloomington Way/Beckett Way intersection and recommends that certain improvements be made. Traffic tends to build up speed coming down the hill and turning right onto Beckett Way. The resident requested that a stop sign be installed on Bloomington Way so that the drivers would have to stop before making the right turn. CM - VOL 9 - 82 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 Mr. Kinzel advised that a field review was done and while stop signs are not recommended, they did recommend installing a 25 mph sign for eastbound traffic on Bloomington Way and painting centerlines on Bloomington Way both north and south of the Beckett Way intersection. To increase sight distance at the intersection, TJKM recommended establishing a 25' no parking zone on the east side of Bloomington Way at Beckett Way. Approximately 1 1/2 parking spaces would be removed at 8669 Beckett Way, but Staff felt that the need for greater visibility outweighs the need to retain the parking space. TJKM also recommended monitoring traffic flow at this intersection to test the effectiveness of the improvements. If observations show a need for more restrictive measures, the implementation of further mitigation could be considered. Cm. Jeffery questioned which street the house identified as 8669 faced. Mr. Kinzel advised that it faces Beckett Way and not Bloomington Way. Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder closed the public hearing. On motion of Cm. Jeffery, seconded by Cm. Snyder, and by unanimous vote (Mayor Moffatt absent) , the Council adopted RESOLUTION NO. 43 - 90 DESIGNATING A NO PARKING ZONE ON THE EAST SIDE OF BLOOMINGTON WAY SOUTH OF BECKETT WAY * * * * REPORT ON "OPEN KEG LAW" Police Chief Rose explained that in response to a request from Karen Seals, the City Council directed Staff to research the law related to open kegs parties. Lt. Rose advised that according to police records, and discussions with Watch Commanders, no evidence was found that Dublin Police Services have been called upon to respond to keg parties within the past 18 months. This does not necessarily mean that such parties do not take place; only that the Police Services were unaware of such activities. Lt. Rose advised that the Alameda County Sheriff's Department and the City of San Leandro are the only 2 law enforcement departments with local ordinances governing groups where police intervention is called for, with San Leandro being the only one specifically addressing possession of alcoholic beverages by persons under the age of 21. Lt. Rose summarized the 2 ordinances, and stated that Staff did not believe that there is a need for an ordinance of this type in the City of Dublin, unless the City Council wishes to recover costs associated with police responses. There are existing Alcohol Beverage Control laws, the Penal Code and the Business and Professions Code that CM - VOL 9 - 83 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 address possession and consumption of alcoholic beverages and laws that cover the sales, furnishing or giving of alcoholic beverages to a person under 21 years of age. Lt. Rose advised that the ordinances basically provide for reimbursement if the police department has to respond a second time. Lenora Holmes, a Hillrose Drive resident, advised that in January and February she contacted the Police Department regarding parties going on where kegs were being sold to minors. The officer responded to her that there was no law forbidding minors from drinking, as long as it is done in the home. She also spoke with Charlie Frazier of the District Attorney's Office and he was to get in touch with the Dublin Police Department. She also contacted Sgt. DiFranco. After she read the newspaper article regarding the open keg law, she contacted Lt. Rose and City Manager Ambrose and stated that she felt she had been working cooperatively with the DA's Office and the Police Department. The parties are still going on. She called the Police Department and knows that they responded. Now, however, there appears to be no record of this. A group of parents have been working very diligently on this problem. She felt that there are good laws on the books, but we need enforcement of those laws. She felt there was a lack of communication, but City Staff is working on this. The parties have not stopped, and we need to do something about them. Karen' Seals stated that most people deny that there are alcohol problems in Dublin. The social norm for teenagers today is to drink. She reported various statistics on alcohol related accidents and deaths. There is a whole other issue that needs to be addressed; parents who buy alcohol for the kids. We need to provide more alternatives for the kids. One ordinance will not solve the problem, but it will make a statement. Parents should be made aware of the liability issues related to serving alcohol to minors in their homes. Ms. Holmes indicated that a group of parents contacted the parent who was providing the kegs for the party and advised that she had been reported. She commented that the Police Department had been there and she thought she was alright, because nothing was done. The following week she had another party. Lt. Rose advised that this issue is not a simple one. They need to have probable cause to enforce any ordinance on the books. It is not as easy as it might seem. Unless there is a noise problem reported, they cannot go onto private property. He also discussed this with Charlie Frazier of the DA's Office. We cannot violate someone's rights to enforce a law. He felt there were effective laws on the book today. Cm. Jeffery stated with the information given, she agreed that perhaps another law is not the answer at this point. She also agreed with Ms. Seals that public awareness is part of the answer. Ms. Seals advised that she spoke with the Attorney General's Office in Sacramento and they agreed that it is a hands tied situation. They CM - VOL 9 - 84 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 are currently trying to strengthen the Alcoholic Beverage Control laws. We are not the only community facing these issues. Cm. Hegarty advised that even if the City Council takes no action, he would appreciate it if the Police Chief would keep the City Council informed. Cm. Snyder felt it was critical that there be an- open communication of dialogue. * * * * CITY ENTRANCE SIGNS - DESIGN APPROVAL Public Works Director Thompson advised that in the 1988-93 Capital Improvement Program, funds were budgeted for construction of City Entrance Signs at 5 locations. Singer & Hodges, Inc. , was retained by the City to develop designs for the signs, as well as prepare bid specifications. Dave Evans from Singer & Hodges presented the designs which had been developed. Cm. Jeffery stated she felt they looked very nice and asked what kind of damage would occur if someone in a car were to clip one of the signs. Mr. Evans stated a sign would certainly be damaged and there is a possibility of this happening. The signs are all precast, so the manufacturer would have a model in the event that new signs were necessary. Making the mold is the biggest expense. Cm. Jeffery asked if there would be any visibility problems with the locations of the signs. Mr. Evans stated the signs are 3 ' 6" high which should not create visibility problems for motorists, plus they are back far enough from the intersections so as to not restrict vision. Cm. Hegarty felt that the brown lettering on a brown brick base was not all that aesthetically pleasing. Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder stated that green concrete is available. Mr. Evans stated they looked at using green tiles, but the costs were prohibitive. Cm. Snyder felt the green letters on the concrete sign at Stagecoach Park did not show up all that well. Cm. Hegarty felt that if the signs were white with green lettering, this would be a better contrast. Mr. Evans advised that the brown letters with the brown brick base would compliment the existing pallet. CM - VOL 9 - 85 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 On motion of Cm. Snyder, seconded by Cm. Jeffery, and by unanimous vote (Mayor Moffatt absent) , the Council authorized the Consultant to proceed with bid specifications based on the approved designs. * * * * DUBLIN BOULEVARD EXTENSION GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT/INITIATION OF RIGHT-OF-WAY LINE STUDY FOR THE 2-LANE ACCESS ROAD PARALLEL TO I-580 AND CONNECTING TO HACIENDA INTERCHANGE Planner John Donahoe advised that this item is a request by Staff to merge the Dublin Boulevard extension GPA into the East Dublin GPA/SP and to proceed with a study of a 2-lane access road parallel to I-580. This action would provide direction in the City of Dublin's orderly growth to the east. Since the time when Dublin's General Plan was prepared, it has become apparent that the extension, as shown, might be too close to I-580. The Council discussed the need to realign the Dublin Boulevard extension, the need for a 2-lane access road parallel to I-580 and connecting to Hacienda Interchange, and the 2-lane access road time line. On motion of Cm. Jeffery, seconded by Cm. Hegarty, and by unanimous vote (Mayor Moffatt absent) , the Council agreed to incorporate the General Plan Amendment for the realignment of the Dublin Boulevard extension into the East Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan Study and adopted RESOLUTION NO. 44 - 90 INITIATING A RIGHT-OF-WAY LINE STUDY FOR A TWO-LANE ACCESS ROAD PARALLEL TO INTERSTATE 580 AND CONNECTING TO THE HACIENDA INTERCHANGE * * * * ANNUAL TRAFFIC SAFETY REPORT & DOWNTOWN INTERSECTION MONITORING REPORT Traffic Engineer Kinzel advised that at Council request, Staff had prepared an annual analysis of high accident locations, along with recommendations for corrective measures. General statistics reveal: Type of Accident 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 Property Damage Only 204 224 197 207 202 Injury 65 80 58 62 73 Fatal 0 1 2 0 0 Total Accidents 269 305 257 269 275 Intersections reviewed included: San Ramon Road between Alcosta Boulevard and Shannon Avenue; Dougherty Road & Dublin Boulevard/ Scarlett Court; San Ramon Road & Dublin Boulevard; Dougherty Road & Sierra Lane; Village Parkway & Amador Valley Boulevard; Village Parkway & Dublin Boulevard; Regional Street & Amador Valley Boulevard; CM - VOL 9 - 86 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 Regional Street & Dublin Boulevard; Dublin Boulevard & Civic Plaza/ Sierra Court; San Ramon Road & Amador Valley Boulevard; Dublin Boulevard & Amador Plaza Road; and Village Parkway & Kimball Avenue. At the San Ramon Road between Alcosta Boulevard & Shannon Avenue location, TJKM recommended installing "Signal Ahead" signs and pavement markings in advance of the Vomac Road intersection to warn drivers behind long lines of traffic. The estimated cost of this improvement is $500. At the Village Parkway & Amador Valley Boulevard location, TJKM recommended monitoring this intersection through the next year to determine if any mitigation measures are necessary. At the Village Parkway & Kimball Avenue location, TJKM recommended no mitigation measures at this location; however, since Kimball Avenue is in the City of San Ramon, Staff recommended addressing a letter to the City of San Ramon requesting the number of accidents at this location reported to the San Ramon police and also requesting enforcement of the speed limit. Mr. Kinzel advised that the Downtown Specific Plan specifies that the Traffic Monitoring Program periodically conduct counts at key locations within and leading to the downtown area. TJKM monitored 5 intersections and compared current conditions to previous years, and reviewed their findings. The Council received the report with no comments. * * * * OTHER BUSINESS Tri-Valley Joint Council Meeting City Manager Ambrose advised that San Ramon will be hosting the next meeting of the Joint City Councils on Thursday evening, April 26th. They have asked if Dublin would like to add any items to the agenda, as well as for a headcount of those who will be attending. Cm. Snyder indicated he would not be able to attend. The Council discussed adding the Camp Parks issue to the agenda, as this would seem an appropriate topic to discuss on a regional basis. Mr. Ambrose stated the City had received a letter from Congressman Stark and this topic will be placed on the City Council's agenda for the meeting of April 23rd. He is requesting a response by May 1st. * * * * CM - VOL 9 - 87 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990 Post Office Cm. Snyder stated he would like to solicit the support of the Council to work through Congressman Stark's Office to have the Dublin Post Office officially designated. Problems surfaced during the census, and many residents have questioned and probably don't understand why we are listed as. Pleasanton. The Council requested that Staff prepare a letter to Congressman Stark to start some type of action to have Dublin declared as an official Post Office rather than a branch. Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder stated it has been very frustrating, particularly with catalog ordering, to have merchandise arrive addressed to Pleasanton. When you give the address, they use the zip code and the computer comes up with Pleasanton. The Council felt that the size of Dublin warrants this designation change. We have had our own zip code since 1982 . * * * * CLOSED SESSION At 9:22 p.m. , the Council recessed to a closed executive session to discuss potential litigation in accordance with Government Code Sections 54957. 7 & 54956.9. * * * * ADJOURNMENT There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting was adjourned at 9: 50 p.m. Mayor Pro Tempore Vonheeder ATTEST: City Clerk CM - VOL 9 - 88 Regular Meeting April 9, 1990
