In 2000, the City of Dublin approved a Planned Development District Stage 1 and 2 Development Plan for the project, and adopted an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (Resolution 204-00, incorporated herein by reference); and WHEREAS, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164, the City of Dublin prepared an Addendum to the EIRs and Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project that determined that the changes to the project consisting of a small increase in useable floor area, modification to retaining wall design, and a reduction in parking would not require major revisions to the previous EIRs or Mitigated Negative Declaration because the changes would not have new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. Because the building envelope, building location, extent of grading, and student and staff population were unchanged, the impacts and appropriate mitigations are the same and no new mitigations are required. Furthermore, City Staff determined that no change in circumstances would result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects because no new or unanticipated circumstances have developed since the EIRs were certified and the Mitigated Negative Declaration was adopted; and WHEREAS, The Eastern Dublin EIR identified significant unavoidable impacts from development of the Eastern Dublin area, some of which could apply to the Project. Pursuant to the Communities for a Better Environment judgment, approval of the proposed Project must be supported by a new Statement of Overriding Considerations; and ATTACHMENT 1 WHEREAS, a CEQA Addendum and a Statement of Overriding Considerations were prepared by Staff; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing on said application on May 25, 2004; and WHEREAS, proper notice of said public hearing was given in all respects as required by law; and WHEREAS, a Staff Report was submitted recommending the Planning Commission approve the CEQA Addendum, Statement of Overriding Considerations, Site Development Review, and Conditional Use Permit for minor amendments to building size, modification to retaining wall design, and reduction in parking requirements; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hear and use its independent judgment and considered all said reports, recommendations and testimony hereinabove set forth. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE City of Dublin Planning Commission does hereby find that: The Parking Reduction of 10% from the parking required by the Planned Development Zoning District substantially complies with and does not materially change the adopted Development Plans, and allows all of the Conditional Use Permit findings to be made because the project would provide 149 parking spaces, exceeding Zoning Ordinance parking regulations, and because the applicant has submitted a parking study prepared by Abrams Associates that concluded that the parking demand of students, staff and visitors would require 145 parking spaces. In addition, the Applicant has submitted a preliminary Transportation Management Program that outlines the measures and responsibilities that the school will take to reduce the traffic impacts and parking demand of the project. The Transportation Management Program measures have been incorporated into the project. The increase in useable floor are of 3,604 square feet and increase in allowable FAR of .009 are appropriate and minor amendments, as the increase is less than 5% of the building floor area, it consists of floor area within the approved building envelope, the number of students and staff would not increase beyond the approved 750 students and 55 staff members, and it substantially complies with and does not materially change the provisions or intent of the adopted Planned Development Zoning District Ordinance of the site. The modification in retaining wall design substantially complies with and does not materially change the provisions or intent of the adopted Planned Development Zoning District Ordinance of the site, because the change is necessary to allow disabled access to the playing field, the additional retaining wall will require less than 1% of additional grading of the project grading, and the grading proposed as part of the SDR project is limited to the 500-foot elevation, reducing the overall cut required, consistent with the intent of the PD District to minimize site grading. Approval of the Site Development Review application is consistent with the intent of Chapter 8.104, Site Development Review, of the Dublin Zoning Ordinance because it resolves project-related issues including, but not limited to, building location, architectural and landscape design and theme, vehicular and pedestrian access and on-site circulation, parking and traffic impacts, in the following manner: 1. Parking lot design coordinates vehicle circulation and parking with pedestrian and ADA accessibility. 2 2. Design of grading coordinates with landscaping design and project mitigation requirements such as proper design and engineering of steep slopes. 3. As conditioned, the project's street improvements provide pedestrian and vehicle access required pursuant to the site's Planned Development District regulations and the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. 4. As conditioned, water quality and stormwater control features have been designed and coordinated with the project's grading and landscaping. 5. As conditioned, the project will comply with the City of Dublin Wildfire Management Plan. Fo The project is consistent with the Dublin General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan because the General Plan provisions allow approval of semi-public facilities such as schools in all land uses, and the project complies with the Planned Development Zoning District established for the site pursuant to provisions and policies of the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, including the Tassajara Road Scenic Corridor Policy. The approval will not adversely effect the health or safety of persons residing or working in the vicinity, or be detrimental to public health, safety and general welfare because, as conditioned, the Applicant/Developer will be responsible for improvements to Tassajara Road including, but not limited to, a signalized intersection, left-turn pocket, increased street width, and maintained traffic signage requiring slower speeds while children are present. The project architecture, site layout and landscaping have been designed to ensure visual relief and to create a desirable and attractive environment for users of the site and the public, because of the following features: 1. As conditioned, impacts to views will be addressed as trees will be planted on the steep slope below the playing field to buffer visual impacts of re-contoured slopes to residents to the south and also to control erosion. 2. Retaining walls are screened with fast-growing, climbing vines to enhance and visually buffer their appearance. 3. Site grading and retaining walls have been minimized by the stepped, hillside design of the building and campus so that the site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the development. 4. The building design incorporates non-glare materials and chain-link fencing will be clad in green-colored vinyl slats. Architectural considerations have been incorporated into the project and as conditions of approval in order to insure compatibility of the development with the design concept and setting. The building incorporates traditional architectural features and, as conditioned, the project colors, materials, methods of compliance with the Wildfire Management Plan, and final landscaping plan will be reviewed and approved as part of the building permit review process. The project will not overburden public services as all agencies have committed to the availability of public services prior to the annexation of the property to the City of Dublin, and will reconfirm their commitment prior to the issuance of building permits as required by the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan policies and mitigation measures. The adopted Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan EIR and Mitigation Monitoring Program, the Quarry Lane School EIR and Mitigation Monitoring Program, and the Planned Development District PA 99-064 Mitigation Monitoring Program continue to apply to the project. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the Dublin Planning Commission approves the CEQA Addendum included as Attachment 4 of the Staff Report and incorporated herein by reference.
