The Planning Commission provided comments on the project. The
Commissioners expressed concerns about the proposed density of 19 dwelling
units given the size and configuration of the parcel and adjacency to the creek
tributary and the Dublin Ranch Preserve/Northern Drainage Conservation Area;
the proposed 50-foot average structural setback from the top of the bank of the
adjacent creek tributary as an exception to the 100-foot setback under the Eastern
Dublin Comprehensive Stream Restoration Program standards; adverse biological
impacts resulting from the project; and safety concerns related to the proposed
ingress and egress to the project site due to the size and location of the project
entrance and the narrow width of the private street which creates a perceived
conflict with the existing traffic speed and congestion on Tassajara Road.
On motion of Commission Vice Chair Bhuthimethee, seconded by Commissioner
Wright, and by unanimous vote (Commissioner Qureshi being absent), the
Commission adopted:
RESOLUTION NO. 17 —09
RECOMMENDING CITY COUNCIL DENIAL OF PLANNED DEVELOPMENT REZONE
