The Dublin City Council does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. RECITALS
A. The Applicant, Jessie Dosanjh, submitted an application to construct a new 31,840
square foot Nissan dealership on the southern portion of the approximately 14.89-acre site. The
applications include a Planned Development Zoning Stage 1 and 2 Development Plan and a
Site Development Review Permit. The proposed development and applications are collectively
known as the "Project"; and
B. The Project site is approximately 14.89 acres located south of Dublin Boulevard between
the Kaiser Medical Center and Grafton Station. Interstate 580 forms the southern boundary of
the site. (Assessor Parcel Number 985-0027-019-00); and
C. On September 20, 2016, the City Council certified the Kaiser Dublin Medical Center
Project EIR which included the subject site identified as Phase 1 B. Upon approval of the Kaiser
Dublin Medical Center EIR, the City Council adopted mitigations, a mitigation monitoring
program and a Statement of Overriding Considerations (Resolution 153-16, incorporated herein
by reference); and
C. On October 4, 2016, City Council approved the Planned Development Stage 1
Development Plan for the Kaiser Dublin Medical Center Project which included the subject site
identified as Phase 1 B (Ordinance 7-16);
D. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines section
15168(c)(2), the project was examined to determine if another environmental document should
be prepared. The analysis concluded that the environmental impacts of the Project were
analyzed in the Kaiser Dublin Medical Center EIR. There is no substantial evidence in the
record that any new effects would occur, that any new mitigation measures would be required,
or that any of the conditions triggering supplemental environmental review under CEQA
Guidelines section 15162 exists; and
E. Following a properly noticed public hearing on March 26, 2019, the Planning
Commission adopted Resolution 19-01, recommending approval of the Planned Development
Rezone and related Stage 1 and 2 Development Plan, which resolution is incorporated herein
by reference and available for review at City Hall during normal business hours; and
F. On April 16, 2019, the City Council held a properly noticed public hearing on the project,
including the proposed Planned Development Zoning Stage 1 Development Plan and the Stage
Ord. 03-19, Adopted 5/7/2019, Item 4.3 Page 1 of 10
2 Development Plan, at which time all interested parties had the opportunity to be heard; and
G. Staff Report dated April 16, 2019, and incorporated herein by reference, described and
analyzed the Project, including the Planned Development Rezone and related Stage 1 and 2
Development Plan, for the City Council; and
SECTION 2. FINDINGS
A. Pursuant to Section 8.32.070 of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds as follows.
1. The Kaiser Commercial Project ("the Project") PD-Planned Development zoning
meets the purpose and intent of Chapter 8.32 in that it provides a comprehensive
development plan that creates a desirable use of land that is sensitive to surrounding
land uses by virtue of the layout and design of the site plan.
2. Development of the Kaiser Commercial Project under the PD-Planned Development
zoning will be harmonious and compatible with existing and future development in the
surrounding area in that the site will provide new commercial in an area that has similar
uses nearby and is also adjacent to existing and future workplaces and residential
neighborhoods.
B. Pursuant to Sections 8.120.050.A and B of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds
as follows.
1. The PD-Planned Development zoning for Kaiser Commercial Project will be
harmonious and compatible with existing and potential development in the surrounding
area in that the proposed Site Plan has considered a land use type and density that is
compatible with the adjacent areas and densities.
2. The project site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the zoning district
being proposed in that the project site is flat with an improved public street on the north, a
private street to the east and served by existing public utilities. The project site conditions
were documented in the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) that has been prepared, and
the environmental impacts that have been identified will be mitigated to the greatest
degree possible. There are no site challenges that were identified in the EIR that will
present an impediment to utilization of the site for the intended purposes. There are no
major physical or topographic constraints and thus the site is physically suitable for the
type and intensity of the commercial uses approved through the PD zoning.
3. The PD-Planned Development zoning 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 welfare in that the project will comply with all applicable development regulations and
standards and will implement all adopted mitigation measures.
4. The PD-Planned Development zoning is consistent with and in conformance with the
Dublin General Plan, in that the proposed commercial center is consistent with the
Medical Campus/Commercial land use designation for the site.
C. On September 20, 2016, the City Council certified the Kaiser Dublin Medical Center Project
EIR which included the subject parcel identified as Phase 1 B. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
Ord. 03-19, Adopted 5/7/2019, Item 4.3 Page 2 of 10
section 15168(c)(2), the project was examined to determine if another environmental document
should be prepared. The analysis concluded that the environmental impacts of the Project were
analyzed in the Kaiser Dublin Medical Center EIR. There is no substantial evidence in the
record that any new effects would occur, that any new mitigation measures would be required,
or that any of the conditions triggering supplemental environmental review under CEQA
Guidelines section 15162 exist.

Map is amended to rezone the property described below to a Planned Development Zoning

base form for the buildings.
• The simple form of the building is enhanced by the juxtaposition of protruding
planes, material textures, and colors.

that employees and visitors can easily identify pedestrian and vehicular access
points

gather and socialize, with landscaping, outdoor seating, enhanced paving
treatment, and other features to provide an appropriate urban scale for the

6. Preliminary Landscape Plan.
The landscape design of the project shall include the following:
• Inviting streetscapes along Dublin Boulevard and at pedestrian entries to draw pedestrians
into the site. Through multiple modes of circulation, plaza spaces and programmed indoor
and outdoor space, social interaction thrives. Through the creative use of planting,
hardscape, site furnishings and lighting, the commercial center of the project site helps to
promote community awareness and vitality.
• A dedicated pedestrian and bicycle pathway connecting the parcels to the east and west
through the project site.
• The open spaces within the site appeal to all users. Distinct and varied activities, seating
options and shade, allow for a diverse user group as well as a unique and identifiable
character.
Ord. 03-19, Adopted 5/7/2019, Item 4.3 Page 7 of 10
• Through the use of a varied planting palette, the public realm and the private site will feel
linked but separate. The use of screening shrubs and accent fencing will provide a visual
buffer while softening the edge.
• Planting Design will create year-round interest with variegated cultivars and plant types with
visual interest through all seasons. Plant palette will be drought tolerant and
environmentally appropriate for the Dublin climate. Planting design will accommodate
plants at their mature size for minimal pruning and shearing. Shrubs will be used to
minimize the visual presence of loading, trash, utility and service areas. Evergreen trees
and hedges will be utilized to provide screening between separate uses. Create a
pedestrian corridor that connects the existing the Water Quality Basin trail to the west,
through the site, and to Keegan St and the Kaiser Medical center to the east

of commercial uses including regional- and community-serving retail uses, professional and

establishments.
