HERITAGE AND CULTURAL ARTS COMMISSION
AGENDA STATEMENT
MEETING DATE: February 10, 2005
SUBJECT: Dublin Historic Park
ATTACHMENTS: Options for Dublin Historic Park Expansion
RECOMMENDATION: Approve options for study as part of the Dublin Historic Park Master
Plan or provide alternate direction
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None -
DESCRIPTION: One of the City Council Strategic Goals for 2004-2005 is to
"Expand and enhance Dublin Historic Park". In order to accomplish this goal, a number of objectives
were identified by Staff and adopted by the City Council including:
III B-2 Commission a land appraisal for the Dublin Square Shopping Center.
III B-3 Undertake a site mater plan and programming study to determine the ultimate boundaries and
uses of the Dublin Historic Park
III B-7 Undertake a financial feasibility study to determine development and operational costs of the
Dublin Historic Park.
III B-9 Explore with DHPA land/cemetery extension feasibility study.
The land appraisal for the Dublin Square Shopping Center is complete and the City Council had advised
Staff to move forward with the preparation of a site master plan. The purpose of the master plan is to
develop long-term options for the development of the Dublin Historic Park which may include acquisition
of the Dublin Square Shopping Center and expansion of the cemetery on to the land owned by the Dublin
Historical Preservation Association. In addition to design options, the master plan will also include costs
related to property acquisition, design and construction, and operation. Consequently Staff is developing
a Request for Proposals to solicit to design professionals that specialize in master planning for historic
sites.
As it is likely that the City will need to purchase all or part of the Dublin Square.Shopping Center if it is
determined that it is feasible to develop the property for park purposes, Staff is recommending that three
options be studies for development, as attached. Option 1 contemplates acquisition and development of
the entire 4.22 acres for public use; Option 2 contemplates public uses on approximately one-half of the
site or 1.8 acres; and Option 3-contemplates public uses for approximately 1.2 acres of the site.
Staff anticipates City Council approval of the Request for Proposals (RFP) on March 2, 2005. Following
circulation of the RFP, interviews will be held with the most qualified firms. It is anticipated that
consultant selection will be confirmed by the City Council in May.
