which a Progran~ EIR was certified (SCH 91103064); and
WHEREAS, an Initial Study, dated June 30, 1998, was prepared for the General Motors Auto

result of this project and no new mitigation measures were needed for site-specific environmental impacts;
and
WHEREAS, all public right of way improvements required in the Development Agreement for
the General Motors Auto Mall have been completed and were accepted by the City Council on February 4,

Auto Mall by 603 square feet for a total of 48,753 square feet and reducing the amount of
development potential on Parcel C by 603 square feet for a total of 72,149 square feet.
Increase the maximum allowable building size for any single building from 37,000 square
feet to 48,753 square feet; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission may approve minor amendments to a Planned
Development Zoning District Development Plan by means of a Conditional Use Permit if it can be found
that the amendment substantially complies with and does not materially change the provisions or intent of
the Planned Development Zoning District Ordinance for the site; and

agencies, and their comments have been incorporated into the Conditions of Approval for the project; and

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE Planning Commission of the City of
Dublin does hereby find that:
mo
The Site Development Review (SDR) approval of this application (PA 03-053) is
consistent with the intent/purpose of Section 8.104 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Bo
The approval of this application, as conditioned, complies with the policies of the General
Plan, with the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, and with Planned Development Regulations
(City Council Ordinance 13-00), which allows a maximum of 120,902 square feet of auto-
related uses to be constructed on Parcels A, B, and C of the General Motors Auto Mall.
The approval of this application, as conditioned, is consistent with the Eastern Dublin
Comprehensive Stream Restoration Program in that the setback minimums are met and the
plant palette chosen is in accordance with the Program requirements.
Do
The approval of this application, as conditioned, is in conformance with the Mitigation
Monitoring Program for the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment
EIR. An Initial Study was completed for the project which concluded that no impacts not
already addressed in this document was present with the project as proposed.
The approval of this application, as conditioned, will not adversely affect the health or
safety of persons residing or working in the vicinity, or be detrimental to the public health,
safety and general welfare because the development is consistent with all laws and
ordinances and implements the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan and Dublin General Plan.
The proposed physical site development, including the intensity of development, site
layout, grading, vehicular access, circulation and parking, setbacks, height, fences, public
safety and similar elements, as conditioned, has been designed to provide a desirable
environment for the development.
H°
The subject site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the proposed use because
it is a level site with area and dimensions that will accommodate an expansion to the auto
dealership as well as being located in an area with sufficient vehicular and pedestrian
access.
Impacts to existing slopes and topographic features are addressed because the property is
flat and there are no significant topographic features that are impacted.
Architectural considerations, including the character, scale and quality of the design, the
architectural relationship with the site and other buildings, signs, building materials and
colors, screening of exterior appurtenances, exterior lighting and similar elements have
been incorporated into the project and as conditions of approval in order to insure
compatibility of this development with the development's design concept or theme and the
character of adjacent buildings and uses.
Landscape considerations, including the locations, type, size; color, texture and coverage of
plant materials, provisions and similar elements have been considered to insure visual
relief, an attractive environment for the public, and a design compatible with the natural
environment of Tassajara Creek to the west and consistent with the Eastern Dublin
Comprehensive Stream Restoration Program.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT THE Planning Commission of the City of Dublin does
find the following in accordance with Section 8.32.080 of the Dublin Municipal Code:
The minor amendments proposed to the Development Plan substantially complies with and
does not materially change the provisions or intent of the Planned Development Zoning
District Ordinance for the site because the two proposed amendments do not change the
overall density or intensity of development on the site, but simply move the density around
within the greater General Motors Auto Mall project area.
Bo
The provisions and intent of the Planned Development Zoning District are unchanged and
unaffected by the minor amendments.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT THE Planning Commission of the City of Dublin does
hereby conditionally approve PA 03-053 Conditional Use Permit and Site Development Review for an
expansion to the existing Dublin Buick/Pontiac/GMC auto dealership at 4400 John Monego Court as
