The proposed Tassajara Creek Phase III project is part of a larger 5 phase project for the Tassajara Creek -
Greenbriar project (PA98-048) that has been approved in phases since March 2000 by the City of Dublin.
In March 2000, the City Council approved a General Plan/Specific Plan Amendment to remove a Public/Semi-
Public designation from the site and approved a Planned Development Rezoning and Stage 1 Development
Plan for the entire site. The Stage 1 Development Plan provided for construction of 445 dwelling units in five
phases at a Medium Residential Density of 6.9 units per acre.
The City Council approved a Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plan and Vesting Tentative Map for Phase I
that consisted of 126 single-family residential lots on 18.85 acres and 4.63 acres of creek corridor. On March
13,2001 the City Council approved a Stage 2 Development Plan for Phase II that consisted of 46 single family
units on 5.66 acres and included 2.3 acres of creek open space corridor. Construction of Phases I and II of the
Greenbriar development is nearly complete, with all improvements installed and housing construction nearly
finished.
Construction of Phases I and II of the Tassajara Creek development is nearly complete, with all improvements
installed and housing construction nearly finished.
This action before the Planning Commission is a recommendation of the Development Agreement for Phase III
of the Tassajara Creek Project, Phase III between the City of Dublin and GHC Roxbury, LLC for Greenbriar

ITEM NO. 8.1
single-family detached and 8 attached residential lots on 20.3 acres with eight open space parcels that total
approximately 11.5 acres.
The Development Agreement is required by the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. Items in the Development
Agreement include, but are not limited to, the financing and timing of infrastructure; payment of traffic,
noise and public facilities impact fees; improvement, maintenance and dedication of roads, trails and open
space parcels, and payment of in-lieu fees and modification of inclusionary units as required to conform to
the inclusionary zoning ordinance.
ANALYSIS:
One of the implementing actions of the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan calls for the City to enter into
Development Agreements with developers in the plan area. The Development Agreement provides
security to the developer that the City will not change its zoning and other laws applicable to the project
for a specified period of time. Additionally, it is a mechanism for the City to obtain commitments from
the developer that the City might not otherwise be able to obtain. The Development Agreement is one
means the City has to assure that the Specific Plan goal, that new development fund the costs of
infrastructure and service, is met.
The proposed Development Agreement is attached as Exhibit A of Attachment 1 to this Staff Report. The
Development Agreement is based on the standard Development Agreement developed by the City
Attorney and adopted by the City Council for Eastern Dublin Projects. In general, the Agreements reflect
what has been determined to be the infrastructure needs for the specific project. These needs are
determined based on submittal of engineering studies and plans.
City procedure requires that there be three public hearings on Development Agreements. The purpose for
the hearing before the Planning Commission is to recommend approval of the Development Agreement to
the City Council.
The City Attorney drafted the proposed Development Agreement with input from City staff, the project
developer, and their respective attorneys. The Development Agreement sets forth the agreements between
the parties in relation to many items, including, but not limited to, infrastructure construction and phasing,
maintenance of trail and landscaping, reimbursement for public service costs as a result of the Lin Family
and City of Dublin Annexation Agreement, and the payment of various required impact fees. Additionally,
during the public hearing on the Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plan, the City Council required that the
inclusionary units be redesigned to include a ½ bathroom in the lower level of the units and directed Staff
to include this in the Development Agreement.
The Development Agreement becomes effective for a term of five years from the date it is recorded. The
Development Agreement runs with the land and the rights thereunder can be assigned.
The City requires that Developers in Eastern Dublin pay traffic impact fees for certain City-wide
improvements to the circulation system. Additionally, fees are charged for certain circulation
improvements specific to Eastern Dublin. Developers are also required to make certain improvements to
the circulation system that are required as a result of their project.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) the City Council adopted Resolution No.
225-03 finding that the Project is within the scope of the Final Environmental Impact Report for the
Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan (SCH 91103064) which was certified by the
Council by Resolution No. 51-93, the Addenda dated May 4, 1993 and August 22, 1994 (the "EIR"), the
2
Mitigated Negative Declaration for PA 98-062 Greenbriar Land Company Tassajara Creek Residential
Project (SCH 99102104) and Addendum dated October 22, 2003, and adopted a Statement of Overriding
Considerations for the Project.
CONCLUSION:
Approval of this Development Agreement will implement provisions of the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan and
the Vesting Tentative Map and Site Development Permit for the project. The proposal is consistent with both
the General Plan and the Specific Plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Planning Commission open the Public Hearing, deliberate and Adopt Resolution
(Attachment 1) recommending City Council adopt an Ordinance approving a Development Agreement between
the City of Dublin and Greenbriar Roxbury, LLC for Greenbriar Homes Communities.

annexed to the CITY in 1995 (DEVELOPER'S 20.3 acres out of a total of 1,537.6
