SECTION 2: FINDINGS
A. Pursuant to Section 8.32.070 of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds as follows:
1. The Planned Development (“PD”) Stage 1 Development Plan Amendment for the
proposed Public/Semi-Public sites meets the purpose and intent of Chapter 8.32 in that
it provides a comprehensive development plan that will be consistent with the General
Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan as amended and protects the integrity and
character of the area by creating a desirable use of land that is sensitive to surrounding
land uses. The Project will allow a broader range of uses, including the potential for
affordable housing developed by a non-profit entity. The PD Stage 1 Development Plan
for the Emerald High School site will eliminate a non-conforming situation since a high
school is currently not a permitted use.
2. Development of the Project under the PD zoning will be harmonious and compatible with
existing and future development in the surrounding area in that the site will provide a
variety of uses for the proposed Public/Semi-Public sites. The subject sites are
surrounded by residential uses to the north and west, by undeveloped land to the south,
and by the City Limits and Urban Limit Line to the east with undeveloped land beyond.
The Emerald High School site is surrounded by residential development to the north,
east, and west, and by commercial development to the south.
B. Pursuant to Sections 8.120.050.A and B of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds
as follows:
122
Ord. No. XX-21, Item X.X, Adopted XX/XX/21 Page 3 of 6
1.The PD zoning for the proposed Public/Semi-Public sites will be harmonious and
compatible with existing and potential development in the surrounding area will take into
account adjacent land uses and will provide a wide range of amenities to and for the
community within the development and the surrounding neighborhoods. The specific
location of the proposed Public/Semi-Public sites on each property would be determined
at the time of Planned Development Stage 2 Development Plan approval.
2. The conditions of the proposed Public/Semi-Public sites were documented in the
Addendum that has been prepared, and the environmental impacts that have been
identified will be mitigated to the greatest degree possible. There are no significant site
challenges or impacts identified in the Addendum beyond what was previous studied in
the EDSP EIRs. The sites are physically suitable for the uses permitted through the PD
zoning. The Emerald High School Site is currently being developed with a new high
school and the project’s impacts were already evaluated by the Dublin Unified School
District.
3. The PD 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.
4. The PD zoning is consistent with and in conformance with the Dublin General Plan and
Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, as amended, in that the proposed uses are compatible with
the General Plan land use designation of Public/Semi-Public.
C. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the City Council adopted an Addendum
via Resolution No. xx-21 on __________, prior to approving the Project.
SECTION 3. APPROVAL OF STAGE 1 DEVELOPMENT PLAN AMENDMENT
The regulations for the use, development, improvement, and maintenance of the Property are set
forth in the Planned Development (PD) Stage 1 Development Plans. PD Districts and the Stage
1 Development Plans provide flexibility to encourage innovative development while ensuring that
the goals, policies, and action programs of the General Plan and provisions of Chapter 8.32 of
the Zoning Ordinance are satisfied. Amendments to the PD Stage 1 Development Plans shall be
in accordance with Section 8.32.080 of the Dublin Municipal Code or its successors.
