RESOLUTION NO. 20 - 21
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN
APPROVING A CONSULTING SERVICES AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF DUBLIN
AND ELS ARCHTICTURE & URBAN DESIGN FOR THE SCS PROPERTY COMMUNITY
OUTREACH
WHEREAS, on August 18, 2020, the City Council denied the At Dublin project on the SCS
Property without prejudice and directed Staff to leave the General Plan Amendment Study open
and work with the property owner to conduct a community outreach process to gather input on
the future use and development of the property; and
WHEREAS, in response to the City Council’s direction, the City released a Request for
Proposals seeking the services of qualified consultants with expertise in land use planning and
community engagement to assist the City with a public outreach process; and
WHEREAS, Staff reviewed the three proposals received in response to the Request for
Proposals, and selected ELS Architecture & Urban Design to provide land use planning and
community outreach for the SCS Property; and
WHEREAS, a budget not to exceed $399,500 has been developed for the SCS Property
Community Outreach. Furthermore, in the event that both the City and the Applicant/Property
Owner agree that additional tasks are necessary to successfully complete the project, the City
Council authorizes the City Manager to approve an increase to the scope and budget not to
exceed 10 percent; and
WHEREAS, ELS Architecture & Urban Design will perform the work outlined in the Scope
of Work and Fee Proposals once the contract is executed and once the Applicant/Property Owner
has funded the Developer Deposit Account to complete the work; and
WHEREAS, the City’s Master Fee Schedule includes a 30 percent overhead charge for
consultant services; however, the SCS Property Community Outreach is different than a typical
development project in that it has been directed by the City Council, which the property owner has
agreed to, but will not result in any approval for development. Therefore, the overhead rate for the
proposed consultant services will not be applied for this work.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Dublin City Council authorizes the City
Manager to execute a Consulting Services Agreement between the City of Dublin and ELS
Architecture & Urban Design, attached hereto as Exhibit A for the SCS Property Community
Outreach with a budget not to exceed $399,500 plus 10 percent contingency for a total of
$439,450.
PASSED, APPROVED, AND ADOPTED this 2nd day of March 2021 by the following

complete the work described in Exhibit A on or before that date, unless the term of the
Agreement is otherwise terminated or extended, as provided for in Section 8. The time
provided to Consultant to complete the services required by this Agreement shall not affect
the City's right to terminate the Agreement, as referenced in Section 8. Notwithstanding
the foregoing this Agreement may be extended on a month to month basis for up to 6
months upon the written consent of the Consultant and the City Manager, provided that: a)
sufficient funds have been appropriated for such purchase, b) the price charged by the

September 30, 2020
Dear Ms. Million,
We greatly appreciate this opportunity to present our p, ur..,L,oul for Planning, Facilitation and
Public Outreach Services at the SCS Property for the City of Dublin. This property offers the
chance to build much needed housing and to create a meaningful and fulfilling place for the
community to enjoy. We will help the City employ a transparent, consensus -oriented proces
involving listening, idea exploration and collaborative design. Our goal is to build trust and alii
the public's interest with the obectives of those in the private sector who will be building the
vision we create.
We recognize that the character of this area of Dublin has its own unique context and that the
potential program of the site will require expertise in residential development of a different
scale than on our effort in Downtown Dublin. To that end, our team has executive -level
experience in homebuilding (much of it in Dublin) to support productive engagement with the
landowners and add greater realism to our design.
Lastly, we realize that in order for the community to fully support the vision it must go
beyond the plan and capture the more subjective challenge of character. We have proposzd
in our outreach a discussion on architecture that is designed to educate but also to reveal
preferences in the community.
We hope that the following proposal clearly outlines our approach and enthusiasm to
collaborate with the City of Dublin. We are happy to discuss in detail any questions you might
have and can provide any additional information you might need to move forward.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Ryan Call at 510.260.4306
or email rcall@elsarch.com.
Sincerely,
.yd all, AIA I Principal

1. Introduction
The Dublin SCS property is a key parcel in the development of
the City of Dublin. The adjacent Tassajara Road extends through
a suburban, rural and urban landscape, connecting Danville and
Dublin before it becomes Santa Rita Road and eventually turns into
Pleasanton's Main Street. The borders of this property represent
nearly every scale of development, encompassing a full spectrum
of residents and commercial tenants. It is no surprise that with
this dynamic address and prominence, the question of what this
site "should be" has no single answer or form of development.
These characteristics mean that the site is at odds with the typical
approach to suburban development, where guidelines often rely on
efficiency, repetition and covering large areas of land with one or
two product types.
Proposals for the site, while high in material quality, have not yet
presented a vision that is acceptable to City Council and the
community. We are eager to learn more about why the past
proposals didn't work and to understand the concerns. We see this
process as an opportunity to explore, discuss, and consider the
factors that shape development.
Building on our collaboration for the Downtown Dublin plan, ELS and
Urban Field Studio are teaming again, with ELS as prime. Our team
holds the following strengths:
ELS brings a highly informed perspective through our work with
private developers and skills in master planning and architecture.
Urban Field Studio (UFS) will customize the community engagement
approach, drawing on extensive and innovative experience in online
public engagement from an urban design lens.
Retail Real Estate Resources (RRER) will provide insight into the
rapidly changing commercial landscape, offering crucial local
knowledge of what works and what doesn't.
Keyser Marston Associates (KMA) gives us the ability to test and tune
our assumptions regarding the financial feasibility of our proposals.
Bernese Lane Partners, which we have added to our group for this
effort, brings executive level experience in the homebuilding sector,
much of it in Dublin. They will assist in our discussions with private
stakeholders and help the team understand residential market
conditions specific to Dublin.
This collaborative team structure represents an important advantage
when planning a challenging, even controversial, site. We believe
that the landowner deserves a clear picture of what they must
do, and we must in turn communicate their constraints to the
community. We strive to build our platform around finding real -
world consensus, on behalf of the community and the landowner.
PUBLIC OUTREACH PLAN DEVELOPMENT
The goal of this exercise is to facilitate a vision that excites the
community as much as the developers who will build it. This vision
will complete the General Plan Amendment study that was left open
by City Council.
The public outreach plan for the site will include the community,
property owner, and City Staff. Our recommendation includes
forming a Community Advisory Committee (CAC) composed of
both proponents and opponents of the projects to serve as a
focus group. We also anticipate a ULI TAP will be convened at the
beginning of the project. Our strategy for engaging those who are
concerned about this development includes offering different levels
of involvement, ways of understanding the site, and attracting broad
participation so that ownership of the conclusions is shared and
championed.
Prior to the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, our team was
experimenting with the online tools that are required for community
engagement today. There are many options available - Maptionnaire,
Neighborland, CoUrbanize, each of which addresses a different
need. For this work, we will create a central project website with
exhibits and activities that will be accessible to participants on their

own time and use events and messaging to draw them in. Visual
communication has always been a strength of our team - whether
through renderings, graphic layouts, video, or in combination. Now
that we live our lives online and are accessing information largely
asynchronously, our planning work needs to speak for itself.
Over the last few months, we have become adept at transforming
what would have been in -person community meetings into engaging
synchronous events, using Zoom and a host of online tools to deliver
charrettes and workshops. We have designed highly interactive
public virtual events for groups of 10-50 people and conducted
webinars reaching many more. Our facilitation skills, developed
over years of live community events, have been adapted for virtual
engagements.
We invite you to see what we have done for the City of Milpitas (https://
www.milpitasmetro.org/), the City of San Leandro (https://www.
sldevelopmentstandards.com/), the City of Albany (https://www.
sanpablospecificplan.org/), and the Delta Protection Commission. The
online community engagement approach for this project in Dublin would
be tailored to involve as many participants as possible, in a straightforward
way with visually appealing and inviting design.
PROCESS
Our process in outline form is as follows:
A. Background Research - Identify physical, political, financial
opportunities and constraints, with key stakeholders and a
Community Advisory Committee
B. Public Engagement - Explore, Learn and Listen. Establish
a relationship with the community using a comprehensive
communications plan with a website and survey, and online
events and activities for dialogue.
C. Land use Framework - Create land use framework options
that respond to the input from stakeholder groups to explain
and explore the tradeoffs of various schemes and the
development process through educational outreach, with the
objective of building consensus to set the foundation for the
preferred plan.
D. Preferred Plan - The preferred plan will be prepared with
supporting financial analysis, three-dimensional exhibits in a
digital format for presentation to the Community.
E. General Plan Amendment Study Recommendation - A
concise report will be prepared to recommend land use and
development policy to amend the General Plan.
F. Implementation Support - Work with landowners as advisors
reviewing development proposals

2. Scope of Work
Task A: Background Research
For Task A, we will identify the political, physical, and financial
opportunities and constraints, working with key stakeholders. We will
also begin building a relationship with the landowner, Community
Advisory Committee (CAC), City Council and Planning Commission.
Background Research will be conducted parallel with ULI TAP. The
background research, combined with the ULI TAP, will help inform
our content for Task A Outreach.
Planning Document Review: ELS and UFS will review the General
Plan, East Dublin Specific Plan, and previous design submittals for
the site. We will work with City Staff to confirm our understanding of
the site's development capacity, reviewing existing planning policies
and any anticipated changes to policies that might inform the master
plan vision. The planning document review will be summarized in a
presentation to be posted on the project website (when available).
Landowner Interview (1): We will meet with the landowner to learn
about the history of the site, discuss our public -engagement
approach, identify key themes, and identify opportunities and
constraints from the ownership perspective.
Background Research would continue after meeting with the
Landowner and Document Review with:
Urban Design Site Analysis: ELS and UFS will work together to
identify important patterns in circulation, context, and nature of the
surrounding built environment that may influence plan concepts.
Geographic Infrastructure Constraints and Opportunities: The
design team will work with City Staff to understand limits of the
site infrastructure, including utilities, stormwater management,
and transportation. We will also be assessing any natural physical
features or grades that may influence the design. We will utilize the
extensive traffic analysis work that has been completed through the
previous project submittal.
The analysis of Urban Design and Geographic Infrastructure will be
summarized in a presentation to be posted on the project website
(when available).
Market Analysis: RRER, KMA, and Bernese Lane will look into
near- and long-term anticipated commercial and residential
market demands for the site and develop content for a summary
presentation to be posted on the project website (when available).
After the ULI TAP, anticipated in March 2021, the first meetings with
the CAC, City Council, and Planning will take place.
CAC Meeting (1): We will rely on City Staff to identify potential
committee members in the community that can serve as part of this
focus group. Our agenda is:
to present background information to set the stage for discussion
to learn about their thoughts on previous proposals and their
general priorities for development in Dublin
to discuss the greater engagement strategy, including organizing
up to 3 follow-up stakeholder interviews
City Council and Planning Commission Meeting (1 each): The team
will present to both the City Council and Planning Commission at
working sessions that will cover:
the outreach strategy for this project
background information collected from landowner, ULI TAP, CAC,
and initial interviews

Task C: Land Use Framework
Task C will focus on land use plan exploration and consensus building.
From the design perspective, the plans will be creative, contextual, inspired
by innovation and financially feasible. From the consensus building
perspective, outreach will be structured to educate the community on the
trade-offs the developer must make to bring the project to fruition and
where there is flexibility for the plan to respond to the community's needs.
Upon the completion of the Task C process we will produce an educational
video summarizing the following:
The design narrative that inspired the three plan options
• The financial constraints the plan must respond to
• Where there is flexibility in the design to be tailored to the community's
needs
• The developer and community feedback on the three plans
• The resulting principals from this process and feedback that will guide
the preferred plan
In the early stages of planning we recommend a process where planning
concepts are conceptually and financially vetted to avoid any back -tracking
regarding amenities (such as parks and plazas), scale, and density. We will
explore innovative projects relative to this market, combining case studies
with the market analysis performed in Task A; this integration will keep our
master -planning efforts focused on realistic parameters.
Innovative Case Studies: RRER and Bernese Lane will research examples
of exciting projects across the nation to help expand our team's
understanding of the best possible design approach. The market analysis
in Task A will help provide context to identify projects that are analogous to
our effort. This content will be developed for posting to the website.
Three Broad Planning Concepts: ELS and UFS will be working together
on three different approaches to land use planning, and the general
organization of parcels, streets, and public spaces. The substantial scale
of the project area as well as its adjacency to a diverse collection of land -
uses and density will support the notion of distinctive community scaled
districts within the site. We will make general assumptions of product type
and configuration. In this task we will be asking questions such as:
How can sub -districts positively relate to land uses and densities on
neighboring parcels?
How can the network of streets, parks and plazas improve connectivity
for the larger neighborhood as well as on -site?
How can amenities improve the value and return on development
within the parcel? What is the investment balance?
How flexible is the urban design plan in responding to fast -changing
market conditions?
Initial plans should push the envelope on development potential, balance
and scale of public open spaces, parcel sizes, and degree of connectivity
to the existing urban fabric. Following our initial pass at the three concepts,
KMA will assess each concept from their perspective for cost and financial
feasibility. This content will be developed for posting to the website.
Economic Vitality Report: KMA will prepare a series of static pro -forma
analyses to test the economic viability of development alternatives.
The pro formas will model horizontal and vertical development costs,
net operating income and supported private investment, potential land
proceeds, and the need for public financing (if any). The pro -forma analysis
assists in identifying development alternatives that best achieve the City's
objectives while meeting the financial requirements of the private sector.
This content will be developed for posting to the website.
Landowner Engagement (1): Following the completion of the conceptual
pro formas our team will meet with property ownership to share the three
initial plans. We will use this opportunity to identify any problematic areas
of the design that may require attention prior to the Town Hall.
CAC Meetings (1): We will meet with the CAC to discuss three initial plans
and findings from our specialty consultants. We will use the feedback from
this meeting to refine and improve our approach to public engagement.
Council Member and Planning Commission Meetings (1 each): We will
present the three concepts to City Council and Planning Commission in
two separate working sessions. Once we have collected their impressions,
we will make any necessary refinements before presenting the schemes to
the community.
Consensus Through Education Video (1): ELS and UFS will produce a short
video (approximately one 3-minute video or a series of three 1-minute
videos) to be used for the purpose of documenting the design process,
defining the fixed and flexible parameters of the project, and serving as a
primer for discussion about the land use trade-offs. The video will cover
basic mechanics of development, the different characteristics of the land
use options, and explore the strengths and weaknesses of each.
Synchronous Community Meeting #2: The second town hall will include a
presentation of the three broad master plan options, using the video.
Asynchronous Online Survey #2: The same video will be posted online,
with an accompanying survey that parallels the Synchronous Community
Meeting. These online activities may include a standard survey, discussion
forums, word clouds, thought exchanges, and any tools that help to reflect
the range of discussion. This survey will remain active for a month.

Task D: Master Plan Development of the
Preferred Plan
Based on feedback from the City Council, Community, City Staff
and Property Ownership, the design team will finalize the overall
framework of the site master plan. This plan will likely be a hybrid of
characteristics as desired in the initial three concepts. The Master
Plan will be posted to the website as a deliverable. The Preferred
Plan will show:
The Development Capacity of the Site, the amount of
development by land use, using typical architectural prototypes
Renderings to convey the character of the overall building
massing to express scale of buildings, public streets, parks and
plazas. (4 total)
An illustrative district plan that establishes the connectivity within
the site and to the surrounding context
A Phasing Plan for the site illustrating near- and long-term build -
out
Conceptual plans for up to two feature public spaces (one
residential oriented, one commercial)
Updates to Economic Viability Report
A 1-minute update to the Video to describe the Preferred Plan
It is our assumption that traffic and infrastructure concepts will
be based on data from the previous "At Dublin" project. If new
infrastructure, or traffic design and analysis is required for this
visioning effort, the City can utilize on -call consultants such as
Kimley Horn to complete specific assignments related to these
analysis'. These services are not included in this contract.
Land Owner Meetings (2): Our team anticipates two meetings with
property ownership to finalize the plan. The first meeting will occur
mid -progress to allow input, followed by a second meeting to
approve.
CAC Meeting (1): Prior to presenting to Council and the Community
Town Hall, we will run ideas by the CAC for feedback.
City Council and Planning Commission Meetings (1 each): We will
present the final plan with supporting exhibits and support of
property ownership.
Synchronous Community Meeting #3: This town hall will present
summary findings of our community outreach, including reactions
to the three concept plans and the architectural workshop. We will
describe in detail the following:
How the community's values have been incorporated into the
project design
How the project relates to and elevates the quality of
neighboring developments and the larger neighborhood
Placemaking and special features, focusing on key public spaces
and streets as well as a sense of place
Expectations and next steps for development
Asynchronous Online Survey #3: A survey and video that parallels
the information in the Synchronous Community Meeting will be
posted to the project website for asynchronous responses using
the platform most preferred by City staff and Consultant team. This
survey may utilize forums, word clouds, thought exchanges, and any
tools that help to reflect the range of discussion.

redevelopment efforts stem from the leasing lens, so concepts, plans, and actions

Responsibilities: RRER will provide insight to the rapidly changing commercial
landscape, and local knowledge of what works and doesn't.
BERNESE LANE PARTNERS I RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT
Qualifications: Robert Donnelly is Managing Member of Bernese Lane Partners, a
privately held diversified real estate development company primarily engaged in
the acquisition, entitlement, development, and disposition of residential and mixed
use projects in and around the San Francisco Bay Area.
Previously, Mr. Donnelly was Vice President of Land Acquisition at TRI Pointe
Homes, a national publicly -traded homebuilding company, where he directed all
aspects of the company's Northern California land acquisition and development
efforts. During his six year tenure with TRI Pointe Homes, Mr. Donnelly acquired
more than 2,300 residential lots/units in 28 communities, totaling over $380MM in
land spend. Under his leadership, Mr. Donnelly grew the division from 31 deliveries
in 2012 ($31.8MM gross revenue) to 439 deliveries in 2018 ($375MM gross revenue),
which helped transition the company from a small, privately held start-up to a
large highly respected merchant homebuilder.
Responsibilities: Bernese Lane will assist in our discussions with private
stakeholders and help the team understand the specific residential market
conditions in Dublin.
KIMLEY-HORN I TRAFFIC
Qualifications: Kimley-Horn has been providing a wide variety of services for
private development projects since its founding in 1967.
Kimley-Horn has a long history working with the City of Dublin and associated
developers for more than 20 years. Kimley-Horn staff prepared a specific plan
and EIR for the downtown Dublin. The goal of the specific plan was to create a
mixed -use district with high -density residential that takes advantage of nearby
BART station and regional transit facilities. The EIR addressed a number of key
issues including aesthetics, transportation, and public services. In particular,
the City Council adopted a new policy endorsing a lower level of service (LOS)
on roadways, and thereby encouraging higher urban density transit -oriented
developments and a more pedestrian -friendly downtown. We have worked on a
number of projects in and around the downtown area and are on City's on -call list
which has been extended through 2021.
Responsibilities: Kimley-Horn will help us understand traffic and related
opportunities and constraints.

use policies. Recent impact analyses include: Linkedln's campus in Mountain View; Brisbane Baylands; Vallco Town Center; and
Apple's presence in Cupertino. Debbie has used the findings of the analysis to recommend incentive packages to attract and retain
businesses, metering requirements to balance the impacts of different land uses, and CFD maintenance obligations or developer
exactions to mitigate negative impacts.
