FINDINGS AND DETERMINA nONS
Pursuant to Section 8.32.070 of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds as follows:
1. The Project, known as Dublin Transit Center Site B-1 (D. R. Horton, Inc.), Planned
Development Zoning meets the purpose and intent of Chapter 8.32 in that it provides a
comprehensive development plan that is tailored to the high density residential land uses
proposed on the Project site and creates a desirable use of land that is sensitive to
surrounding land uses by virtue of the layout and design which is in close proximity to
mass transit.
2. Development of Dublin Transit Center Site B-1 (D. R. Horton, Inc.) under the Planned
Development Zoning will be harmonious and compatible with existing and future
development in the surrounding area in that the land uses and site plan establish a high
density residential project with on-site amenities and affordable units in compliance with
Master Development Agreement adopted by Ordinance 5-03 in May 2003. The land uses
and site plan provide effective transitions to surrounding development which is
characterized by the proposed vehicular and pedestrian circulation system.
Pursuant to Section 8.l20.050.A and B of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds as follows:
1. The Stage 2 Development Plan for Dublin Transit Center B-1 (D. R. Horton, Inc.) will be
harmonious and compatible with existing and potential development in the surrounding
area in that the land uses and site plan establish a high density residential project with on-
site amenities and affordable units in compliance with Master Development Agreement

the October 26, 2004 Planning Commission Staff Report. The minimum number of
parking spaces shall be provided in accordance with Section 8 above.
10. Site Plan and Architecture
This Development Plan applies to approximately ±3.13 net acres on the southeast corner
of Dublin Boulevard and DeMarcus Boulevard. The project is comprised of two
structures:
Townhouses: A row of townhouses faces the Village Green. Access is provided by
an east-west driveway along the rear of the townhouses which connects DeMarcus
Boulevard to the north-south private access driveway on the adjacent property to east.
Parking spaces for the townhouses are provided at ground-level and tucked under
(covered) in enclosed garages along the rear of the building.
Stacked and Walk-up Condominiums: The larger (main) structure of condominium
units occupies the most of the site. This building has frontage along both DeMarcus
Boulevard and Dublin Boulevard. Parking is provided at the ground level and in one
subterranean level below a podium. Access to the structured parking also is located
from the east-west driveway between the two structures. The units and common
areas wrap the parking structure exterior so as to prevent the garage from becoming a
focal element. Pedestrian access to the building is located on three of the four
building sides. Access to residents also is available at the podium level. No
pedestrian access is available from the Dublin Boulevard elevation.
The architecture of the two structures is Mediterranean-inspired with ample exterior
articulation and color palette to minimize visual mass and scale. The design is intended
to create an image consistent with an urban lifestyle and encourage pedestrian circulation.
A two-story entry portal located on both the east and west facades of the building adds to
the urban streetscape and creates a visual link with those buildings on surrounding and
adjacent properties.
4
PD, Planned Development Zoning District
P A 03-058 Dublin Transit Center Site B-1
In focusing on the pedestrian scale, attention was paid to the base on the buildings. A
stone veneer around the base of each building provides enhanced materials and a strong
visual element at the pedestrian level. Residential stoops are located along the east and
west facades. Each stoop entry is 2 to 3 feet above the street level and ties directly to the
sidewalk. These features are further enhanced with ornamental railings, seating and
decorative light fixtures. In addition, building lobbies and recreation rooms are located
on the ground floor. A large interior (podium level) courtyard is integrated into the
project with patterned walkways, landscaping, and open space. However, pedestrian
connections to Dublin Boulevard are minimized and discouraged with a 3-foot high wall
and landscaped berm acting as a butTer to the busy street.
See attached plans and building elevations prepared by Togawa & Smith, Inc., dated
received July 2, 2004, the colors and materials board received on July 2, 2004, and
Landscape Plans prepared by The Guzzardo Partnership Inc., dated 16 August 2004, and
labeled Exhibit A to the October 26, 2004 Planning Commission Staff Report. Any
modifications to the project shall be substantially consistent with these plans and of equal
or superior materials and design quality.

(covered) in enclosed garages along the rear of the building.
Stacked and Walk-up Condominiums: The larger (main) structure of condominium
units occupies the most of the site. This building has frontage along both DeMarcus
Boulevard and Dublin Boulevard. Parking is provided at the ground level and in one
subterranean level below a podium. Access to the structured parking also is located
from the east-west driveway between the two structures. The units and common
areas wrap the parking structure exterior so as to prevent the garage from becoming a
focal element. Pedestrian access to the building is located on three of the four
building sides. Access to residents also is available at the podium level. No
pedestrian access is available from the Dublin Boulevard elevation.
The architecture of the two structures is Mediterranean-inspired with ample exterior
articulation and color palette to minimize visual mass and scale. The design is intended
to create an image consistent with an urban lifestyle and encourage pedestrian circulation.
A two-story entry portal located on both the east and west facades of the building adds to
the urban streetscape and creates a visual link with those buildings on surrounding and
adjacent properties.

In focusing on the pedestrian scale, attention was paid to the base on the buildings. A
stone veneer around the base of each building provides enhanced materials and a strong
visual element at the pedestrian level. Residential stoops are located along the east and
west facades. Each stoop entry is 2 to 3 feet above the street level and ties directly to the
sidewalk. These features are further enhanced with ornamental railings, seating and
decorative light fixtures. In addition, building lobbies and recreation rooms are located
on the ground floor. A large interior (podium level) courtyard is integrated into the
project with patterned walkways, landscaping, and open space. However, pedestrian
connections to Dublin Boulevard are minimized and discouraged with a 3-foot high wall
and landscaped berm acting as a buffer to the busy street.
