ADOPTING A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION AND
MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM FOR
THE ENEA PROPERTIES STARW ARD ROW RESIDENTIAL PROJECT, PA 04-006
WHEREAS, the Enea Properties Company LLC, the site property owner, has requested approval
of an application for a General Plan Amendment to change the land use designation ITom "Retail/Office" to
"Medium-Density Residential (6.1 to 14.0 units per acre)", Planned Development District Rezoning with a
Stage I and Stage 2 Development Plan, and Site Development Review for a .77- acre parcel (APN 941-
0173-002-02) to construct ten (10) single family dwellings, and associated improvements, on land
generally located north and east of Starward Drive, and north of the Shamrock Shopping Center; and
WHEREAS, a completed application for each of the requested actions is available and on file in
the Dublin Community Development Department; and
WHEREAS, Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City prepared an
initial study consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 for the Project to assess any potential
significant environmental impacts which may result ITom the project. Various studies addressing potential
traffic and air quality, noise, hazardous materials and waste, and geotechnical impacts were prepared for
the project, and are briefly summarized in the Mitigated Negative Declaration in Exhibit A, and mitigation
measures were recommended which would reduce the identified potential impacts to less-than-significant
levels. Based on this, a Mitigated Negative Declaration and accompanying Mitigation Monitoring Plan
were prepared for this project. The draft Mitigated Negative Declaration with Initial Study was filed with
the Alameda County Clerk and circulated to applicable agencies for review and comments during a 20-day
review period, beginning January 5, 2005 and ending January 25, 2005. Subsequent incorporation of all
mitigation measures recommended by the various studies and the City's standards for construction in the
Project design, and further evaluation, has determined that the Project, as designed and proposed, would
not result in any significant adverse impacts. All potential environmental impacts have been reduced to a
less-than-significant level. As a Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared for the Project, State law
requires a Mitigation Monitoring Program to be established and adopted with the environmental document.
The Mitigation Monitoring Program is attached to this Resolution for adoption with this Project as Exhibit
B;and
WHEREAS, a Staff Report dated January 25, 2005 was submitted to the Planning Commission
recommending City Council adopt the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (Exhibit A) and
the Mitigation Monitoring Program (Exhibit B) for the proposed project; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing on said application on January 25,
2005; and
WHEREAS, proper notice of said hearing was given in all respects as required by law; and
I
WHEREAS, comments were taken at the Planning Commission hearing related to neighborhood
residents' concerns that potential privacy and noise impacts could result ITom the residence on Lot I of the
proposed development, as well as potential light/glare impacts ITom vehicles using the private street; and
WHEREAS, Enea Properties has designed the home on Lot I to address impacts to privacy, light
and glare, and noise as the second-floor windows on the north elevation of the home proposed for Lot I
do not face the existing home to the north of the Project site; the windowless garage of the proposed home
on Lot 1 is located directly across the drainage channel and easement (approximately 20 feet in width)
ITom the backyard of Mr. Atwood's residence; an additional five-foot side yard setback along the north
property line has been included in the Project for a combined distance of25 feet ITom the proposed house
on Lot 1 to the property line of the property to the north; and, the location of a six-foot wooden fence
along the north and east property lines of the Project site adjacent to proposed Lot 1 will block the noise
and light ITom vehicles accessing the garages of the residences and northbound on the private street, as
well as provide additional screening to existing residences on Oxbow Lane in the residential area to the
north; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hear and consider all said reports, recommendations
and testimony hereinabove set forth on January 25, 2005, and used their independent judgment; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did adopt Resolution 05-07 recommending City Council
adoption of the Mitigated Negative Declaration and accompanying Mitigation Monitoring Program for the
Enea Starward Row Residential Project, PA 04-006; and
WHEREAS, the City Council did hold public hearings on said application on February 15,2005;

Introduction
This. Inilial Study has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Califomia Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) to assess the potential environmental impacts of implementing the proposed project
described below. The Initial Study consists of a completed environmental checklist and a brief explanation
of the environmental topics addressed in the checklist.

Project Description
Location and Context:
The project site is a .77-acre lot located at 7475 Starward Drive (APN 941-0173-002-02) near the
intersection of Starward Drive and Amador Valley Boulevard. Exhibit 1 depicts the location of the project
area in context of the larger City of Dublin. Exhibit 2 depicts the project site under existing conditions.
The currenl Retail/Office land use designalion was established for the parcel al 7475 Starward Drive in
1985 with.lhe adoption of the first General Plan after incorporation of the City of Dublin. Previously, the site
was within unincorporated Aiameda County and subject to County land use regulations. The site has a
current Zoning Ordinance classiflcalion of Commercial Office (C-O) Dislrict, established under the City's ..
first Zoning Ordinance. The site has flat topography, indicating previous grading, and it has been partially
developed. In 1963, the existing medical office building complex was built. The size of the existing
building complex is 5,268 square feet. A small parking lot occupies the area adjacent to the buildings. A
drainage canal follows the north property line. The site has little remaining vegetation, indicating previous
clearing. Existing vegetation consists of a mature multi-branch palm tree, an olive tree, and various
shrubs, such as oleanders and underbrush.
Surrounding land uses consist of the following: to the east is a small, 12-unit duplex rental complex on
property with a Medium/High~Density Residential General Plan land use designation; to the north is a
drainage canal and a neighborhood of detached homes with a Single Family Residential General Plan land
use designation; to the west is a neighborhood of 31 detached homes with a Medium Density Residential
General Plan land use designation; and to the south is a shopping center with a Relail/Office General Plan
land use designation.
Proiect Proposal:
The proposed project consists of a General Plan Amendment, a Stage 1 and Stage 2 Planned
Development (PD) District Rezoning, a Site Development Review, and a Vesting Tentative Map to allow
the development of ten (10) detached single-family homes on ten (10) individual lots, along with associated
improvements typical of a residenlial development. Exhibit 3 depicts the proposed General Plan

it
Amendment and PD Rezoning. Exhibit 4 depicts the proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map lhat would
subdivide.lhe site if approved by lhe City of Dublin. If approved, the lot sizes would range from 2,143
square feet to 2,652 square feet for a net density of 13 unils per acre.
The current General. Plan land. use designation is Retail/Office and the Applicant requests a new General
Plan land use designation of Medium-Densily Residential (6.1 to 14 units per acre), The maximum
development potential under the proposed General. Plan land use designation would be 10 units on the. 77
acre site. The density of the proposed project is 13 dwelling units per acre.. The current Zoning District is
Commercial Office (CO) and the. Applicant requests a new PD Zoning District for the project.
The new homes would be. two-stories and provide lot coverage ranging from approximately 42% to 56%,
Exhibit 5 depicts the site plan for the project. Anticipated sales prices of the residences are expected to be
in the range of $ 550,000 to $ 600,000, according to the Applicant.
All of lhe homes would provide !wo-car garages. A private street would serve the garages, which are
located to the rear of the proposed lots. One of the garages (Lot 10) is equipped wilh!wo vehicie doors on
opposing sides of the structure, so a driver leaving the garage would enter StalWard Drive without backing
into oncoming traffic. The driveway is 24 feet in width, tapering to 21 feet, and would access the project
from the middle of the block, forming a "T" configuration. A five-foot landscaping strip or bioswale and a
six-foot fence would separate the driveway from lhe property to the east. Table 1 describes the pertinent
details of each of the homes, as follows below:

The proposed projecl would include grading of lhe site to promote improved on-site drainage. The
preliminary grading plan indicates that grading would be balanced on the site, meaning that import of fill
material would be minimal and export of material would not be required to complete the project grading.
Project grading would involve the movement of approximately 580 cubic yards of soil. The proposed

project would also involve the construction of relaled improvements as part of the subdivision, including
underground water, sewer, drainage, natural gas and. telecommunication facilities.
The project developer would install landscaping along the Starward Drive project frontage in the front yards
of the homes and side yard of Lot 10, as well as planting of street trees in the landscape strip within the
right"of~way. Landscaping plans include the planting of fescue grasses in the proposed five-foot-wide
bioswale adjacent to the 296-foot eastern property line (bioswale extends approximately 250 feet). The
purpose of the bioswale is to slow the flow of stormwater run-off from the project as it drains to the City
storm drain and to allow some filtration and absorption into the ground.
The project developer anlicipates that the entire project would be built in a single phase of development
over one year, with the homes ready for occupancy by Fall of 2006.
ExistinQ Entitlements:
Under the current General Plan land use of Retail/Office and Commercial Office (C-O) Zoning District, the
allowable FAR for the subject property is .25 to .60 and employee density is 200-450 square feet per
employee. Based on the current designation, the allowable floor area would be between 8,423 to 20,216
square feet wilh a projected employee population of 19. to 101 employees. Development would be guided
by the Zoning Ordinance regulations for the CoO Zoning District. Existing setbacks are 20 feet in the front,
10 feet on the sides, and 10 feet in the rear, and the existing maximum building height would be 35 feet in
lhe commercial district. The differences between the existing land use designation and the current
proposai are summarized below:

Determination (to be completed by Lead Agency):
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
_ I find that the proposed project could nol have a significant effect on the environment and the
previous Negative Declaration certified for this project by the City of Dublin adequately address potential
impacts and mitigate any impacts to a less-than-significant level.
à I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will
not be a significant effect in lhis case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet
have been added to the project. A Mitigated Negative Declaration will be prepared.
_ I find that although the proposed project may have a significant effect on the environment, but at least
one effect 1) has been adequately anaiyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards,
and 2) has been addressed by miligation measures based on earlier analysis, as described on the
attached sheets, if the effect is a "potentially significant impact" or "potentially significant unless mitigated,"
or "polentially significant unless mitigated." An Envlronmenlallmpact Report is required, but must only
analyze the effects that remain tò be addressed.
_ I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will
not be a significant effect in this case because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed
adequátely in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and (b) have been avoided or
mitigated pursuant to that earlier document, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed on
the proposed project.

Evaluation of Environmental Impacts
Abbreviations Include:
PSI = Potentially Significant Impact
PS/M = Polenlially Significant Impact Unless Mitigation Incorporated
LS = Less than Significant Impact
NI = No Impact
I. Aesthetics
Project Impacts and Mitiqation Measures
a-b) Affect a scenic vista or view or damage scenic resources? LS. Based on a field observation of the
project site and review of General Plan policies, no existing views or vistas would be blocked or
altered by lhe project. The primary feature of the site is the existing 5,268-square-foot, single-story
office building complex constructed in 1963. No scenic resources such as rock outcroppings or
historic buildings are present on the site, as the existing building has no historic or architectural
significance. Very little landscaping or vegetation can be found on the site. Vegetation on the site
consists of a palm tree, olive tree, oleanders and various small shrubs. Some mature landscaping
is present on the site. A non-native multi-branch palm, chamaerops humilis, will be retained in the
yard of the proposed home on Lot 1. No mitigation measures are required.
cod) Substantially degrade the existirig visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings, or
create e source of light or glare? LS. Construction of the proposed project would change the
existing visua.1 character or quality of the area from a partially developed, commercial property to a
residential area that is similar to the development on the east, west and north sides of the
property. The character of the properties to the south is primarily retail and services commercial
(shopping cenlers). Based on a close review of the proposed plans, aesthetic impacts of the
project will be less than significant as lhere are many similarities between the proposed building
types, sizes, colors and materials and that of the existing residential development in the vicinity.
The proposed project will not be a source of significant light or glare, as only 10 single-family unlls
are proposed. Therefore, the impact of the project would be less than significant.
II. Agricultural Resources
Proiect Impacts and Mitioation Measures
a-c) Convert Prime Farmland, conflict with agricultural zoning or convert prime farmland to a non-
agricultural use? N I. According to City records and information provided by the Alameda Counly
Assessor's Office, the site has not been used for agricultural purposes in lhe past or present, and no
Williamson Act Land Conservation Agreement exists on the project site. It is located in an urbanized
portion of the City, completely isolated from other agricultural resources within the region.
Additionally, the site is not located on Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland or Fannland of Statewide
City of Dublin

Page 26
31'l)t'iSl
Importance as identified by the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California
Resources Agency. Therefore, no adverse impacts to agricultural resources wouid result from the
project, and no additional mitigation measures are required.
III. Air Quality
Proiect Impacts and Mitioation Measures
a) Would the project conflict or obstruct implementation of an air quality plan? LS. Construction of the
proposed project will add additional vehicular traffic to this portion of Dublin. These additional
vehicles will generate some quantities of automotive vehicle emissions, consisting of carbon
monoxide, reactive organic gases, nitrous oxide, sulfur dioxide, and particulate matter (PM10).
However, the location of the project near major transportation corridors (San Ramon Road and
Amador Valley Boulevard), the proximity of altemative means of transportation (WHEELS bus
service and pedeslrian access to shopping), the relatively high density of the project (over 12 units
per acre), and the in-fill nature of the project results in conformity with the local Clean Air Plan
adopted by lhe Bay Area Air Quality Management District.
b) Would the project violate any air quality standards? PS/M. Potential air quality impacts can be
divided into short-term, conslruction-related impacts and long~term operational impacts associated
with the project.
Short-term construction impacts related to implementation of the project, including grading and
excavation, could result In exceeding air quality standards established by the Bay Area Air Quality
Management District. Construction vehicle equipment on unpaved surfaces also generates dust as
does wind blowing on exposed ground surfaces. Generalized estimates of construction air emissions
Include approximately 1.2 tons of dust per acre per month of construction activity. About 45% of
construction-related dust is composed of large particles that settle rapidly and are easily filtered
when inhaled by human beings. The remaining dust consists of small particles (also know as PM10)
that could constilute a more significant air quality impact, unless mitigated.
Adherence to the following mitigation measures will reduce short-term air quality impacts to a less-
than-significant level. These measures minimize the creation of fugitive dust during grading and
construction activities and also mandate that construction equipment be kept in proper running
order. These dust control measures are essential during construction as the site Is surrounded by
residential development and sensitive receptors,
Mitigation Measure 1: The following measures (Best Management Practices) shall be incorporated
into construclion specifications and shall be followed by lhe projecl grading contractor:
. All material excavated or graded shall be sufficiently watered to prevent excessive amounts
of dust. Watering shall occur alleast twice per day with complete coverage, preferably in the
late morning and at the completion of work for the day, or when the wind is blowing;
. All clearing, grading, earthmoving and excavalion shall cease during periods of high winds
greater Ihan 20 mph over one hour;
city of Dublin
Initial Study for the Enea Properties Residential Project on Starward (PA 04-006)
January 5, 2005
Page 27
32þt) I~ \
· All material transported off-site shall either be sufficiently watered or' contained in trucks with
tarps that are securely fastened to prevent escape of dust and debris;
· All inactive portions of the construction site shall be planted and watered if construction is
accomplished in more than one phase;
· On-site vehicle speed shall be iimited to 15 mph and the site superintendenl shall have
enforcement measures in place;
· During rough grading and construclion, Starward Drive shall be swept at least once per day,
or as required by the City of Dublin to remove silt and construction debris;
· Unnecessary idling of construction equipment shall be avoided;
· Equipment engines shall be maintained in proper working condition per manufacturers'
specification; and
· Exiting from the site to surrounding roadways shall be performed at low speeds to avoid
roadway conflicts.
Additional potential impacts related to demolilion of the existing building are further described in
Section VII, Hazards and Hazardous Materials.
Potential long-term air quality impacts related 10 vehicular traffic emissions and stationary source
emissions would not exceed regional air quality standards or thresholds, for the reasons stated
above.
c) Would the project result In cumulatively considerable air pol/utants? LS. The limited sCOpe of the
project, which Is located on an .77 acre site within an established, urbanized area of Dublin, would
minimize the potential of the project to contribute to cumulative air quality impacts.
d-e) Expose sensitive receptors to significant pol/utant concentrations or create objectionable odors? N I.
If approved and constructed, the project would be expected to add 27 to 45 future residents. The
proposed project would not be a source for pollutant concentration or create objectionable odors as
it is a residential development typical of the surrounding vicinily and consistent with the local Clean
Air Plan adopted by the Bay Area Air Quality Managemenl District. Additionally, the location of the
project, which is in close proximity to Downtown Dublin shopping areas (Ralph's grocery store and
the Target store are within 800 feet of the project site), to City services (Senior Cenler), and to transit
(LAVTA bus line #3), will provide alternative modes ·of transportation for the residents, reducing
dependency on automobiles.
IV. Biological Resources
Proiect Impacts and Mitiqation Measures
a-b) Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species
identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies or
regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,
or on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans,
City of Dublin

policies, regulations or by the Deparlment of Fish and Game or the Fish and Wildlife Service? NI.
Based on field observations of the site conducted in 2004, it is highly unlikely that any special status
species would locate on the site or use the site as habitat because of the geographic location of the
site within an existing, urbanized neighborhood and the evidence of previous clearing and grading,
No riparian areas are located on the subject site. A channelized creek, owned and maintained by
the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District 7 (Zone 7), is located adjacent to
the subject sile and approximately 14 feet from the firsl proposed residence (measured to the
centerline of the channelized creek).
cod) Have a substantiai adverse impact on federally protected wetlands as defined by Section 404 of the
Ciean Water Act through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption or other means? Or,
interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or
with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife
nursery sites? N I. A fiood control channel held by the Zone 7 (Aiameda County Flood Control and
Waler Conservation District 7) is located adjacent 10 the site to the north. As this existing channel is
constructed of concrele and established within a 20-foot wide corridor with a buffer of approximately
14 feet to the first residence, no waterways wiil be disturbed as part of the proposed project. It is
highly unlikely that any native resident or migratory wildlife species would locate on the site or use
lhe site as a movement corridor because the project is located on a parcel developed for office use
with associated improvements within an existing, urbanized neighborhood, and it has been cleared
and graded.
e-Q Conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as tree
protection ordinances, or conflict with the provision of an adopted Habitat Conservation
Plan, Natural Community ConselVation Plan or other approved local, regional or state
habitat conselVation plan? NI. The Dublin Municipal Code identifies and protects the
following Heritage Trees: any oak, bay, cypress, maple, redwood, buckeye and sycamore
tree having a trunk or main stem of twenty-four (24) inches or more in diameter measured
at four (4) feet six (6) inches above natural grade; a tree required to be preserved as part
of an approved development plan, zoning permit, use permit, site development review or
subdivision map; or a tree required to be planted as a replacement for an uniawfully
removed tree. The trees on site, a palm and an olive tree, do nol fail into the category of
Heritage Trees. The palm tree is proposed to remain as part of the project as it
contributes some screening and shade to the northernmost residence. The subject
property is not part ot any adopled Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community
Conservation Plan or other approved local, regional or state habital conservation plan.
V. Cultural Resources
Proiect Impacts and Mitiqation Measures
a-d) Cause substantial adverse change or restrictions to significant historic, archeological or

religious/sacred uses) or human remains? LS. Based on previous analysis conducted by City Staff
for the adjacent development of the Toi Property (PA 98-013), there Is evidence that the site once
contained a streambed that was filled many years ago. Generally, historic and prehistoric habitation
occurred on sites adjacent to creeks, streams, and other bodies of water, although no surface
evidence exists that such artifacts are present on this site. Because the site presents evidence of
previous clearing and grading at subsurface levels, development of the proposed project should not
disturb buried cultural and/or paleontological artifacts through additional grading and general site
construction. Adherence 10 the following mitigation measure would maintain this impact at a level of
less-than-significant:
Mitigation Measure 2: Should archeological artifacts or remains be discovered during construction
of the project, work in the vicinity of the find shall stop immediately until a qualified archeologist can
evaluale the site and determine the significance of the find. Project personnel shall not collect or
alter cultural resources. Identified cultural resources shall be recorded on forms DPR 422
(archeological sites) and/or DPR 523 (historic resources). If human remains are found, the County
Coroner shall be contacted immediately. The project approvals will be conditioned accordingly.
VI. Geology and Solis
(Note: The following information is based on a Geotechnical Investigation for the site prepared by
GFK & Associates on October 27,2004. The field invesligation was performed on October 13,
2004, and included the drilling of five (5) exploratory borings at the approximate locations shown in
Figure 4 In the Appendix of the Geotechnical Investigation. )
Overall Geoloav;
The project site is situated within the central part of the Coast Ranges geomorphic provinces, which
is characterized by a series of parallel, northwesterly trending folded and faulted mountain chains.
In this part of the province, the relatively flat Amador Valley is underlain by alluvial deposits of the
Hoiocene Age, Folding and faulting of the hills within the region is attributed to the result of
prehistoric lectonic forces causing major uplifts. .
Solis;
The subsurface soils as encountered in the exploratory borings consisted of alluvial deposits that
extended to the maximum depth explored of 21.5 feet. The upper 5 to 7 feet consisted of clayey silt,
and silty and sandy clays of low 10 moderate plasticity. In Borings 4 and 5, the soils in the top 4 to 5
feet were different from the other borings and most likely these soils consist of old fill that may have
been placed during original developmenl of the existing Starward Drive.
Below these upper soils, a stiff layer consisting of dark brown. moderately expansive silty clay about
3 to 5 feet thick extended 10 an approximate depth of 10 to 11 feet in all borings. Below this layer, a
tannish brown silty clay layer of about 4 t06 feet thick was encountered. Below the approximate

average depth of 15 feet, tannish and grayish brown silty clay layer extended to the bottom of the
borings. In general, the consistencies of the soils encountered were moist and stiff, and became
very moist below an approximate depth of 15 feet.
Groundwater was encountered in the deeper borings (Borings 1,2, and 4) at approximate depth of
19 to 20.5 feet below the ground surface. Flucluations in the groundwater conditions do occur with
seasonal rainfall.
A more detailed description of the soil conditions is presenled in the boring logs found in the
Appendix of the Geotechnical Investigation, prepared by GFK Associates.
FaultlnCl and Seismicity:
The subjecl site is located within the seismically active San Francisco Bay Area and epicenter maps
show continuing activity in the region. No known faults exist within or adjacent to the site, and lhe
site is not within the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Hazard Zones, running generally parallel to San
Ramon Road.
According to the California Division of Mines and Geology (CDMG, 1982), the nearest known active
fault to the site is the Calaveras Fault that lies about 400 feet west of the site. The Alquist-Priolo
Earthquake Fault Hazard Zone of the Calaveras Fault is shown on the CDMG map at a distance of
approximately 100 feel west of the site. The local secondary faults include: the Pleasanton Fault
(about 1.5 miles east); the Verona Fault (about 6 miles southeast); and, the Las Positas Fault (aboul
11 miles southeast of the site). Other major faults of the region include: the Hayward Fault (9 miles
southwest); Greenville Fault (about 11.5 miles east); Concord Fault (13 miles northwest); and, San
Andreas Fault (about 27 miles southwest of the site).
Any of these major faults can produce significant shaking at Ihe site. The U.S. Geological Survey
Working Group on Earthquake Probabilities (1999) has estimated thai the probability of a large
earthquake in the region during lhe 2000-2030 period at 70% and the most probable source of
producing such an event is the northern segment of the Hayward Fault. The Calaveras Fault may
produce the most intense ground shaking due to its closer proximity to lhe site than the Hayward
Fault.
The ICBO (1998) estimated maximum magnitudes (moment magnitude) of 6.8 on the Calaveras
Fault; 6.9 on the Greenville Fault; 6.7 on the Concord Fault; 7.1 on the Hayward Fault; and, 7.9 on
the San Andreas Fault. The peak site acceieration that can be produced by these faults is
addressed below, under Ground Shaking.
Ground Rupture:
Since there are no known active faulls within the site, the possibility of ground rupture from faulting
is negligible.

Liauefaction Potential:
Liquefaction is the temporary transformation of a saturated, cohesion less soil into a viscous liquid
during strong ground shaking from a major earthquake. Liquefaction occurs primarily in loose,
cohesion less soil below the groundwater. Considering the cohesive soils encountered during the
geotechnical investigation, the potential of liquefaction within the explored depth on the site is low.
Ground Shakina:
Any of the major faults in the region can produce significant shaking at the site, The Geotechnical
Investigation prepared by GFK & Associates indicated lhat the Calaveras Fault could produce the
most intense shaking at the site, and if a maximum credible earthquake ruptures this fault at ils
closest proximity to the sile, peak site accelerations could typically range between .51g and .86g .
Proiect Impacts and Mitioation Measures
a) Expose people or structures to potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury,
or death involving: i) rupture of a known earlhquake fault, as delineated on the most recent Alquist-
Priolo Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist for the area or based on other substantial
evidence of a known fault; ii) strong seismic ground shaking; Iii) seismic-related ground failure,
including liquefaction; and/or ivy landslides? PS/M, Although portions of the site are located' within
100 feet of an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Hazard Zone identified by the State Geoiogist, no
evidence of active faulling has been found on the site by the Applicant's geotechnical engineer. The
Geolechnicallnvestigation concluded that the risk of ground rupture from an active faull appears
low. Dwellings proposed for the site will be required to comply with seismic requirements
established by the Uniform Building Code,
Dwellings constructed on the site could be subject to moderate to severe ground shaking during an
earthquake. According the Geotechnicallnvesligation, the structural integrily of Ihe proposed
buildings would be a primary factor in determining the possible seismic damage due to
groundshaking. Groundshaklng is a hazard which cannot be eliminated but can be mitigaled to a
level of less"than"significance based on adherence to the following mitigation measure:
Mitigation Measure 3; The conclusions and recommendations of the Geotechnical Investigation
prepared by GFK & Associales shall be incorporated into the design of the project and adhered to
during and alter construction. All dwellings constructed on the projecl site shall conform with
Uniform Building Code Standards for Seismic Zone 4. This mitigation measure will reduce the
geotechnical impacts to a level of less than significant
b) Result in substantíal sOÎl erosion or the loss of topsoil? LS. Based on the geotechnical report
prepared for the project and site observations, the risk of ground failure is anticipated to be low due
to the flat topography of the site.

?:15f) \t;t
c) Be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of
the project and potentially result in on- and off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence,
liquefaction, or collapse? LS. Based on the geotechnical report prepared for the project, the risk of
unstable soil is anticipated to be low due to the characteristics of the soil. Enforcemenl of provisions
of the Uniform Building Code and recommendations contained in the geotechnical report prepared
for the project and incorporated into the project will serve to reduce the potential impacts of seismic
groLJnd failLJre to a less than significant level.
d) Be located on expensive soil, as defined in Table 18-1-8 of the Uniform Building OJde (1994),
creating substantial risks to life or property? PSIM. Based on the geotechnical report prepared for
the project, the risk of expansive soils is anticipated to be low due 10 the characteristics of the soil
taken from sample borings. Localized fill may exist on the site as encountered in borings conducted
for the Geotechnical Investigation. Enforcement of Mitigation MeasLJre 3 (above) reqLJiring the
project proponent to adhere to the conclusions and recommendations contained in the GFK report
will serve to reduce the potential impacts of expansive to a less than significant level.
e) Have soils capable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative wastewater
disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of waste? NI. No septic tanks or
alternative wastewater disposal systems are proposed for the project. Dwellings constructed as part
of the project will be connected to City utilities, inclLJding waler and sewer service.
VII. Hazards and Hazardous Materials
Proiect Jll1pacts and Mitioation Measures
A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment was completed for the project in JanLJary 2004 by lhe firm of
Clayton Group Services, Pleasanlon. The pLJrpose of the assessment was to identify historical or current
SOLJrces of contamination or hazards on the site. The Phase I Assessment concluded that the existing
small office building was constructed in 1963 and may contain asbestos in some of the bLJilding materials,
An Asbestos Inspection Report was prepared by Bovee Environmental Management (BEM) on FebrLJary
17, 2004. The report conclLJded that asbestos containing malerlais (ACM) were present is some materials
used in the construction of the office complex, SLJch as ceiling tiles, floors, insLJlation tape, and walls, The
BEM Report provides the regLJlatory backgroLJnd for the removal of ACMs and the firm's recommendations.
a) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine trensport, use or
disposal of hazardous materials? PSfM. Asbestos containing materials are present in some of the
bLJilding materials in the existing office bLJilding complex on-site. This hazardoLJs material could be a
potentiai significant impact if it was released dLJring demolition of the bLJilding. This potential adverse
impact can be mitigated to a level of less-than-significant by adherence to the following mitigation
measure:
Mitigation Measure 4. The project proponent shall follow lhe recommendations and conclusions

Asbestos Inspection Report, prepared by BEM, prior to demolilion, and shall prepare and implement
a containment plan, pursuant to state and federal law. The asbestos removal shall be certified as
meeting the most stringent regulatory requirements and practices, prior to demolition.
b) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset
and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment? N I.
Construction of the project and occupation of the units once construclion is completed will not
involve significant hazardous materials that could be released in an accident.
c) Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or
waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? NI. No significant hazardous
materials will be used in lhe construction of the project or once lhe units are occupied since this
proposed project is residential. Two schools are within 1/3 miles of the project site. Nielsen
Elementary School at 7500 Amarillo Road is within 1,627 feet and Dublin Elementary School at 7997
Vomac Road is within 1,843 feet. No additional schools are proposed for the project vicinity.
d) Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to
Government Code Sec. 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or
the environment? NI. The projecl site is not on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuanl
to Government Code Sec. 65962.5.
e) For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such plan has not been adopted,
within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard for
people residing or working in the project area? Nt. The proposed project is not within the vicinity of
an airport. The nearest airpori is the Livermore Municipal Airport, which is over 5 miles away from
the project.
~ For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project result in a safety hazard for
people residing or working in the project area? NI. The proposed project is not within the vicinity of
an airport. The nearest airport is the Livermore Municipal Airport, which is over 5 miles away from
the project.
g) Impair implementation of or physically intelfere with the adopted emergency response plan or
emergency evacuation plan? Nt. The proposed project would not impair implementation or interfere
with any emergency plan or evacuation plan.
h) Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving wildland fires,
including where wildlands are adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with
wildlands? Nt. The proposed project would be built within an urbanized area. The project area is
not part of, nor adjacent to, any open space or Wildfire Managemenl areas. All structures proposed
for the projecl sile would be built in conformily with provisions of the Uniform Building Code and
Uniform Fire Code.

VIII. Hydrology and Water Quality
No surface water exists on the site, The nearest surface water source is an open flood control
channel (Line J-3) located off-site on a parcel which forms the northerly boundary of the site. This
facility has been constructed by the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District
Zone 7 as a regional drainage facility and it continues to be maintained by the District.
According to Staff analysis prepared for the development of the adjacent Toi property (PA 98-013) in
July of 1998, the project site as well as the remainder of the Tri-Valley area Is underiain by an
extensive underground aquifer. The aquifer ranges in depth between 15 and 500 feet but is no
longer used as a source of domestic water in the area.
The Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency,
prepared for this portion of Dublin indicates that the site is subject to flooding during 500 year
flooding events (Area X500). The open flood channei adjacent to the northern property line is within
a flood area identified as AE, or an area inundated by 1% annual chance flooding, for which base
flood elevations have been determined, Base flood elevations are established at 355 feet above
sea level along the northern boundary of the project site. (Community Panel Number 060705 0001
B, updated in September 17,1997.)
Water is supplied to the community by the Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD),
headquartered in Dublin. DSRSD maintains a variety of facililies to distribute water throughout the
District's service area. Facilities include reservoirs, water turnouts, pumping stations and pipelines
to deliver water to customers. The District obtains water pursuant to an agreement with Zone 7 of
the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation Dislrict (Zone 7). Zone 7 is a multi-
purpose agenéy that oversees water issues in the Tri-Valley Area, including supplying treated water
to four retail water agencies, providing flood control protection and managing underground water
resources in the area. Zone 7 presently obtains water from three sources: the State Water Projecl,
local surface water and iocal groundwater.
Proiect Impacts and Mitiaation
a) Violate any watar quality standards or waste discharge requirements? PS/M. The proposed project
improvements will lead to lhe creation of new impervious areas within Zone 7's watershed, creating
addilional runoff in downstream facilities. The small size of/he projecl which consists of 10 single-
family units on a .77-acre 101 will reduce lhe potential impacts. In addition, the proposed
Development Plan includes the incorporation of a five-foot wide and 250-foot long bioswale along
the east property line. This landscaped depression would collect stormwater run-off and direct it to
the storm drain inlel. The purpose of the bioswale is to slow the movement of the stormwater and
provide opportunities for absorption into the ground. The following mitigalion measure is proposed
to limit impacts created by increase stormwater runoff:
Mitigation Measure 5. The project proponent shall pay Special Drainage Area 7-1 Drainage Fees.
Fees are collected by the Cily of Dublin for Zone 7 at the time of Final Map approval and building

¡..j~¡'tr\
permit approval. A credil is available for lhe existing development on the site, which will be
removed. The project proponent shall submit plans to Zone 7 for review indicating existing
impervious area and proposed impervious area calculations.
Adherence to Mitigation Measure 5 will reduce lhe potential runoff impacts to a level of less-than·
significant.
b) Subsfantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such
that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local groundwatar table level
(e.g, the production rate of pre-existing nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support
existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been granted? LS. Homes in the vicinity
of the project are connected to water service through DSRSD, DSRSD does not rely on
groundwater as a source of water for domestic consumplion. There are no other sources of water
wilhdrawal at lhe site.
c) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of
the course of a stream or river, in a manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on-
or off-site? LS. The site has a flat topography with a gradual slope on the northern boundary of the
site. A regional open drainage channel exists immediateiy to the north. The applicant has indicated
that the site will be graded in order to provide for future building pads, private driveways and similar
features. Estimated grading quantities would include moving approximately 580 cubic yards of
material at the site (cut and fill would be balanced). Although unlikely, without proper mitigation,
some erosion could result into the adjacenl flood channel, onto Starward Drive, and onto the
residential compiex 10 the easl. The following mitigation measure is proposed to limit impacts related
to water-borne erosion to maintain a level of less-than-significant
Mitigation Measure 6: The project developer shall prepare and the City shall review an erosion and
sedlmenlation control plan for implementation Ihroughout the project construction. The plan should
be prepared in accordance wilh City of Dublin and Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB)
design standards. The plan at a minimum should include the following:
- All disturbed areas shall be immediately revegetated or otherwise protected from both wind and
water erosion upon completion of grading activities.
- Stormwater runoff shall be collected into stable drainage channels from small drainage basins
10 prevent the build up of large, potentially erosive stormwaler flows:
- Specific measures shall be established to control erosion from stockpiled earth materials;
- Runoff shall be directed away from all areas disturbed by construction;
- Sediment ponds or siltation basins shall be used to trap eroded soils prior to discharge into off·
site drainage cuiverts or channels;
- . Major site development work involving excavation and earth moving for construction shall be
done during the dry seasons, except as may be approved by the City Engineer.
- Gradingof the property should be graded away from the Zone 7 channel to prevent overbank
discharge into lhe channel.

~~
Adherence to Mitigation Measure 6 will maintain the potential erosion impacts to a level of less-Ihan~
significant.
d) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of
a course or stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a
manner which would result in flooding on- or off-site? LS. The site is partially developed and
currently water percolates inlo the groundwater table on the areas on which there is no development
(approximately 213 of the project site). The proposed project will add impermeable and impervious
surfaces on the site in the form of residences, garages, driveways, walkways and similar hard
surfaces. This will result in higher quantities of storm water runoff that must be accommodated by
the local drainage system. Preliminarily, stormwater will be directed off-site into an existing public
storm drain system within and below Starward Drive. Ultimately, storm water from the project would
be discharged into a Zone 7 facility. The project size of .77 acres will limit the potential impacts. The
following mitigation measure will maintain the impact to a level of less-than·significant:
Mitigation Measure 7: In accordance with City standards and procedures, prior 10 approval of a
final subdivision map or issuance of building permits, the project applicant shall be required, by City
regulations, to submit and have approved a drainage and hydrology study, which will include
delailed calculations regarding the amount of additional storm water anticipated to be generated and
the ultimate disposition of the water. The projecl developer shall also be required to obtain
necessary permits from Zone 7 to allowIor additional discharge into the Zone 7 facility.
With adherence to the standard City procedures in Mitigation 7, no significant impacls are
anticipated with regard to absorption rates or increased storm waler runoff and no further mitigation
measures are required to',maintain the impact to a level of less·lhan-significant.
0) Create or contribute runoff water which wouid exceed the capacity of existing or planned stormwater
drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff? PS/M. The preliminary
grading concept for the project involves collecting on-site storm water runoff and transporting it to
the north for ultimate outfall into the unnamed Zone 7 flood control channel via a bioswale. The five-
foot-wide swale would be landscaped wilh fescue grasses to encourage filtration and absorption
prior to discharging.
It is likely that initial storm water flows after a lengthy dry season may add pollutants into the
adjacent flood control channel, including but not limited to grease, oil, fertilizer and other organic and
inorganic material. Typically, subsequent fiows generally contain fewer amounts of pollutant
material.
The City of Dublin is a co-permittee of the Alameda County Clean Water Program, which is a
coordinated effort by local governments in the County to improve water quality in San Francisco
Bay. In 1994, the San Francisco Bay Regional Waler Quality Control Board issued a set of
recommendations entitled "New and Redevelopment Controls for Storm Water Programs." These
recommendations include policies that define watershed protection goals, minimum non-point
source pollution controls for site planning and post construction activities. Watershed protection

goals are based on policies identified in the San Francisco Bay Basin Water Control Plan, which
relied on Best Management Practices (BMPs) to limit poilutant contact with stormwaler runoff at its
source and remove such pollutants prior to being transported into receiving waters. The foilowing
mitigation measure is recommended to reduce surface water quality pollution to a level of less-than-
significant.
Mitigation Measure 8: The project developer shail prepare a Stormwater Poilution Prevention Plan
for approval by lhe Dublin Public Works Department and Zone 7. The Plan shaii include specific
BMP measures to reduce water quality impacls from conslruction activities as weii as from long-term
operational aspects of lhe proposed subdivision. The project shaii be subject to payment of fees
required by Zone 7.
With incorporation of Mitigation 8, lhe potenlial impacts of the project wiii be reduced to a level of
less-lhan-significant.
~ Otherwise substantially degrade water quality? NI. See discussion above,
g) Place housing within a 100-yeer flood hazard area as mapped on a Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood
Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map? NI. The project site lies outside of the
1 DO-year flood plain as identified on the applicable FIRM published by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency, Community Panel 060705 0001 B. A fiood channel (100 year) is located
adjacent to the site, No significant impact has been identified and no mitigation measures are
required.
h) Place within a--100-year flood hazard araa structures which would impede or redirect flood flows? NI.
The project site lies oulside of lhe 1 DO-year flood plain as identified on the applicable FIRM
published by the Federai Emergency Management Agency, Community Panel 0607050001 B. No
significant impact has been identified and no mitigation measures are required.
i) Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving flooding, including
flooding as a rasult of the failure of a levee or dam? N I, The project area is nol protected from
flooding by either an existing or pianned levee or dam, therefore there is no impact related to levee
or dam failure and no mitigation measure is required.
j) Inundation by seiche, tsunami or mudflow? NI. No history of impacts relative to seiche, tsunami or
mudflow have been identified in the project area and no mitigation measure is required,
IX. land Use and Planning
The current General Plan land use designation for the subject parcel is Retail/Office. The
Retail/Office land use is described in the General Plan as "Shopping centers, stores, restaurants,
business and professional offices, motels, service stations, and sale of auto parts are included in this
classificalion. Residential use is excluded except in lhe Downtown Intensification Area." The
City of Dublin

It"~
Zoning District of the parcel is Commercial Office (C"O). Allowed uses on the property include a
range of commercial and office uses. Residential uses are not allowed.
The Applicant is requesting a General Plan Amendment 10 change the General Plan land use
designation to Medium-Density Residenlial for ccnformance between the proposed project, the
adjacent properties, and the General Plan Land Use Map. As part of the project, the site is also
requested to be rezoned to PD as a residential Planned Development.
Proiect Impacts and Miliqation
a) Physically divide an established community? N I. The scope of lhe projecl is limited to 10 dwelling
units on .77 acre on one parcel. The small scope of the project would not create any physical and
other potential barrier to free access in the surrounding community or compromise the integrity of
the surrounding community. Medium and Medium-High Densily Residential land uses have been
established on the west and east sides of the subject site. The proposed Medium-Density
Residential designation would create greater continuity between the residential properties in the
area and buffer the lower density residential land use to the north of the project from the commercial
shopping center to the south of the project.
b) Conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the
project (including but not limited to the general plan, specific plan, or zoning ordinance) adopted for
the purpose of avoiding or mitigating añ environmental effect? PS/M. The proposed project would
change the current Dublin General Plan land use designation and Zoning Ordinance District.
Although applications have been filed to amend the Generai Plan and establish a Planned
Development District, such actions may only be approved by the Dublin City Council with
recommendations on these actions by 'the Planning Commission. There is a potentially significant
impact relative to consistency with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
However, proposed densities would be jusl under 13 units per acre, which would be consistenl with
the requested Medium-Density Residential General Plan land use classification and would be
consistent with the existing General Plan land use designations of adjacent properties.
The proposed project would be ccnsistent with other provisions of the General Plan such as General
Plan Residential Land Use Section 2.12, Neighborhood Diversity. Guiding Policy A states, "Avoid
economic segregation by City sector." Implementing Policy B states that medium and medium-high
residential densities shall be allocated to development sites in all sectors of the Primary Planning
Area.
The proposed introduction of housing at the Enea Starward Project site will also be consistent with
lhese policies in that it provides for the construction of a small lot, single-family detached home,
which is not commonly available in the Primary Planning Area. The following mitigation measure is
recommended 10 ensure consistency with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, which would
reduce this impact to a level of less Ihan significant.

Mitigation Measure 9: Concurrent with the approval of lhe proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map
for the project, the General Pian will be amended to a Medium-Density Residential land use
classification, and shall be rezoned to a Planned Development (PO) District
c) Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan? NI.
This Initial Study represents full California Environmental Quality Act compliance with regards to the
project. The City of Dublin has adopted no citywide or specific environmental plan or policy relative
10 habitat or natural resources conservation that would affect this application. Further discussion of
this issue may be found under Section IV., Biological Resources.
X. Mineral Resources
Proiect Impacts and Milioation
a - b) Result in the loss of availability of regionally or locally significant mineral resources? NI. Based on
Geotechnical Investigation, prepared by GFK and Associates, the site is not iocated in an area of
aggregate resources. Therefore, there is no impact and no mitigation is required.
XI. Noise
(The following information is taken from the noise evaluation prepared by Tyler Rynberg and Sleven
Thorbum of Thorburn Associates in a letter dated October 6, 2004,) The project site is directly
bordered on the north and'E1ast by residential zones, and by Starward Drive to the west and south.
San Ramon Valley Boulevard is located approximately 400 feet to the west of the site and Amador
Valley Boulevard is located approximately 600 feet to the south. Highway 680 is located
approximately Y. mile to the east of the site. The noise evaluation prepared for the project utilized
bolh a 24-hour instrument measurement and several short-term spot measurements. The 24-hour
measurement was made on lhe proposed Lot 5, at a point approximately 40 feet from Starward
Drive. The spot measurements were conducted between Lots 5 and 6, at Lot 1 and at Lot 10. The
spot measurements were made concurrenliy with the 24-hour measurements in order to evaluate
how noise is distributed at the site. .
The noise evalualion measured noise using a Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) standard.
A CNEL standard is a descriptor of the 24-hour A-weighted average noise level. The CNEL concept
accounts for the increased noise sensitivity of people during the evening and nighttime hours.
Sound lave Is during the hours from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. are penalized 5 dB; and, sound levels
during lhe hours from 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. are penalized 10 dB. A 10 dB increase in sound level
is perceived by people to be twice as loud.
Thorburn Associates concluded that ambient noise throughout the site was dominated by traffic
noise from Amador Valley Boulevard, San Ramon Boulevard and Starward Drive, The calculaled
CNEL for the 24-hour measurement location was 58 dBA. Using the spol measurements, CNEL

levels were 59 dBA at the north side of the site and 60 dBA at the south side. These levels are
consistent with the General Plan's 1983 Noise Exposure Contours plan, and consistent with General
Plan acceptable community noise exposure levels of 60 dBA or less. Interior noise levels would be
reduced to 45 CNEL in any habitable room pursuant to General Plan and Uniform Buiiding Code
requirements through normal building construction.
Proiect Impacts and Mitiaation
a) Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in excess of standards established in the
general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable stendards of other agencies? LS. The existing noise
levels al the site demonstrate that the project would not expose residents to noise that exceeds
standards established in the General Plan, Uniform Building Code, or State law. Some additional
sources of noise wouid be created with both development and construclion of the project.
Development of the project is expected to create some long-term sources of noise, such as the
noise of children playing, the noise of residents' vehicles entering and leaving the privale garages of
the home, and other sources of noise associated with residential development. These sources of
noise may be heard by the residents of the adjacent duplex units to the east, as these units are
within 15 feet of the proposed private driveway. However, the project has been designed to limil the
noise generated by the sources of noise typicai to residential neighborhoods, such as children
playing, visitors' vehicles, gardening equipment, and trash pick-up, to a level of less-than-significant.
Trash pick-up is associated with high, spot noise measurements, as pick-up often occurs before 7
a.m., it is a regularly occurring noise event, and the sound of the trucks and cars can exceed 60
dBA. Visitor parking can be a potential adverse impact as any additional source of noise would be
an increase to existing residents. The project has been designed to isolate the noise of both trash
pick-up and visitor parking to the sidewalk along Starward Drive, at the greatest distance from the
bedrooms and private yard areas of the homes in the neighborhood. Similarly, garden areas are
separated from lhe residences to the east by the private driveway and detached garages of the
homes, which distance (approximately 35 feet) the source of the noise from voices and garden
equipmenl, as well as insulate the noise behind the garage slructures. These project design
features reduce the noise impacts of the property to a level of less than significanl, as noise
generated on-site would not exceed a CNEL of 60 dBA.
Construction noise levels would create short-term increases in noise exposure levels that would
likely exceed acceptable levels set by the General Plan (60 dBA or less) during certain time intervals
of construction. See the mitigation measure incorporated into the project as part of Question D,
below.
b) Exposure of persons to or generation of excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise
levels? LS. Development of the site would require limited grading and normal wood frame
construction techniques. Sources of vibration such as pile driving or heavy demolition would not be
a parl of the project.

/1bc1lQ ¡ 2. \
c) A substantial pennanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing
without the project? LS. See the discussion of permanent increases in Question A, above.
d) A substantial temporary or períodic increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above
levels existing without the project? PS/M, Construction of the project can be expected to generate
short-term noise levels above 60 dBA. Noise sources would include demolition equipment, earth-
moving equipment, saws, hammers, additional personal vehicles, and the sounds of construction
crews. The projecl applicant anticipates thaI construction would last 12 months. Noise impacls
would be felt primarily by residents in existing homes to the east of the project. The following
mitigation measure is therefore recommended to limit the polential impacts of construction noise to
an acceptable level.
Mitigation Measure 10: All conslruclion activities on the project site shall be limited to 7 a,m. to 5
p.m., Monday through Friday, and no construction shall occur on weekends or City holidays, unless
alternative hours are approved by the Dublin Building Official for structurai construction and the City
Engineer for grading activities. Construction equipment, including compressors, generators, and
mobile equipment, shall be fitted with heavy duty mufflers designed to reduce noise impacts to a
CNEL of 70 dBA or less.
With incorporation of Mitigation 10, the potential impacts of the project will be reduced to a level of
less-than-significant.
e) For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopfed,
within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people residing or
working in the project area to-.¡;xcessive noise levels? NI. The project is not within an adopted
airport land use plan and it is separated from the nearest airport, Livermore Municipal Airport, by a
distance of 5 miles or more. Therefore no impacts have been identified and no mitigation measures
are required.
~ For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project expose people residing or
working in the project area to excessive noise levels? NI. The project is not wilhin the vicinity of a
private airstrip, Therefore no impacts have been identified and no mitigation measures are required.
XII. Population and Housing
Project Impacts and Mitiaation
a) Induce substantial population growth in an area, either directly (for example, by proposing new
homes or businesses) or Indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)?
LS. The proposed project is expecled to create population growth of approximately 1 ° to 27 new
residents. Existing City infrastructure can safely accommodate this growth, therefore it is not
expected to create a significant increase. Therefore no impacts have been identified and no
mitigation measures are required,

b) Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, necessitating the construction of replacement
housing elsewhere? NI. There are no existing residents on the site.
c) Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the replacement of housing elsewhere? N I.
There are no existing residents on the site.
XIII. Public Services
The site is served by the following public service providers:
Fire Protection. Fire Protection is provided by the City of Dublin Fire Department, contracted
through the Alameda County Fire Department, which provides structural fire suppression,
rescue, hazardous materials control, and public education services. The closest Fire Station os
located on Donohue Drive approximately 1. mile east of the project site.
Police Protection. Police protection is provided by the Dublin Police Services Department,
which is headquartered in the Dublin Civic Center. The Department, which maintains a sworn
staff of 31 officers, performs a range of public safety services, including patrol, investigation,
traffic safety, and public education.
Schools. Educational facilities are provided by the Dublin Unified School District which operates
kindergarten through high school services within the community. Schoois which would serve
the projecl include Dublin High School (grades. 9 - 12), Wells Middle School (grades 6 - 8), and
Dublin Elementary (K-5).'
- Parks. The City of Dublin provides park facilities through its Parks and Community Services
Department.
- Maintenance. The City of Dublin provides public facility maintenance, including roads, parks,
stréet trees, and other public facilities.
Other Governmental Services. Other governmental services are provided by the City of Dublin
including community development and building services. Library service is provided by the
Alameda Counly Library with supplemental funding by the City of Dublin. The Dublin Civic
Cenler is located at 100 Civic Plaza.
Proiect Impacts and Mitiaation
a) Would the project result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new
or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant
environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other
petformance objectives for any of the public services, including fire protection, police protection,
City of Dublin
Initial Study for the En.a Properties Residential Project on Starward (PA 04-006)

schools, parks, or other public facilities? LS. Due to the central location of the project, the small size
of the population generated by the project, and the current capacity of the City's public facilities in
the central part of Dublin, the project by itself would not require significant new construction to
provide acceptable service ratios or response times. Cumulatively, any additional population growth
would be expected to add a potentially significant burden on public facilities, which are at or
expected to be at full capacity in the near future.
City Services. The Cily of Dublin has adopted a Public Facilities Fee for all new residential
development in the community forlhe purposes of financing new municipal public facilities needed
by such development. The following standard mitigation measure is applied to all residential
development to ensure that potential impacts can be maintained at a less than significant level.
Mitigation Measure 11; The project proponent shall, prior to issuance of building permils, pay the
City of Dublin Public Facililies Fee at the rate lhal is effective at lhe time of issuance.
Schools. The Dublin Unified School District recently completed a Facilities Master Plan that includes
estimates of student generation by residential density type. Since many local schools are currently
or are expected to be at full capacity in the near future, the following standard mitigation measure is
applied to all residential development to ensure that potenlial impacts can be maintained at a less
than significant level.
Mitigation Measure 12: The project proponent shall, prior to issuance of building permits, obtain a
written agreement with the Dublin Unified School District for lhe projecl's fair share mitigation of
school impacts. Any fees, which are required pursuant to lhat agreement, shall be paid prior to
issuance of building permils. .
Wilh lhe incorporation of Mitigations 11 and 12, the impacls relative to Public Services will remain at
a level of less-than-significant.
XIV. Recreation
Proiect Impacts and Mitioation
a) Would the project increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational
facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated?
LS. Cumulatively, any additional population growth would be expected to add a potentially
significant burden on public parks, which are at or expected to be at full capacity in the near future.
However, the incremental increase of 27 residents is not a significanl addition to the population of
residents using the City parks and recreational facililles.
The City of Dublin has adopted a Public Facilities Fee for all new residential development in the
community for lhe purposes of financing new municipal public facilities, including City parks, needed

by such development. The following standard mitigation measure is applied to all new residential
development to ensure that potential impacts remain at a less than significant level.
Mitigation Measure 13: The project proponent shall, prior to issuance of building permits, pay the
City of Dublin Public Facililles Fee at lhe rate that is effective al the time of issuance.
Wilh the incorporation of Miligalion 13, the impacts relative to Recreation would be maintained at a
level of less-lhan-signlficant.
b) Does the project include recreationai facilities or require the construction or expansion of
recreationai facilities that might have an adverse physical effect on the environment? LS.See
Mitigation Measure 11, above.
XV. TransportatlonlTraffic
Proiect Impacts and Mltiaation
Would the project:
a) Cause an increase in traffic which is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of
the street system (i.e. result in a substantial increase in either the number of vehicle trips, the
volume to capacity ratio on roads or congestion at intersections)? LS. The project site has a total of
33,693 square feet of land. The southern portion of the property is approximately 14,993 square feet
and is undeveloped. The remaining northern portion's 18,700 square feel is developed with two
freestanding office buildings, totaling approximately 5,268 square feet of office space with 27
existing parking spaces. The exisllng allowable Floor Area Ratio development regulation could result
in a maximum of 20,216 square feet of office. The following table compares the different
development alternatives for the site.

As shown in Table 1, the existing 5,268 office space generates 58 daily trips, eight (8) a,m. peak
hour trips, and eight (8) p.m. peak hour trips.
In Example 2., lhe existing FAR of .28 applied to the entire site would result in about 9,434 square
feet of office space. This would potentially generate 105 daily trips, fifteen (15) a.m. peak hour trips,
and fourteen (14) p.m. peak hour trips,
However, if the project were built at its maximum development potential of an FAR of .60 as shown
in Example 3., then lhe development would generate 220 daily trips, 31 a.m. peak hour trips, and 30
p.m. peak hour trips,
The proposed General Plan Amendment and PO Rezoning (Example 4.) would create 10 residential
units. This project would be expected to generate 96 daily trips, 8 a.m. peak hour trips, and 10 p.m.
peak hour trips. Daiiy trips are less than those of lhe potential office development, and the peak
hour trips of the proposed project are essentially the same as the existing office development on the
site.
The site is located within an existing residential community. Starward Drive serves as the principal
access for approximately120 homes within the surrounding neighborhood. Other streets principal
access routes are Shannon Avenue and Donohue Drive. The daily traffic volumes near the site are
estimated to be in lhe range of 1,200 to 1.800 vehicles per day, which are well wilhin the capacity of
the street. The southern portion of Starward Drive has very few homes fronting on the street; north,
most of the homes front cul"de"sacs lhat intersecl wilh Starward Drive. A traffic signal is being
added to the intersection of Starward Drive and Amador Valley Boulevard to the south of the projecl
due to the construction of the Dublin Senior Center and. Senior Housing project nearby, which will
fu rther facilitate traffic circulation in the project vicinity. The proposed project is not expected 10
create any negative traffic impacts on the circulation within the adjacent neighborhood.
b) Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level of service standard established by the Alameda
County Congestion Management Agency for designated roads or highways? PS/M. This project
could have potentially significant impacts on a cumulative basis when weighed with all of the
development projects planned for the Downtown Dublin area. The City of Dublin has established a
Downtown Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) to anticipate cumulalive traffic impacts of development projects
in the Downtown area. This project is located within theTIF area. The purpose of the fee is to
share the responsibility for lhe traffic and circulation improvements thaI will be needed among the
many projects that will incrementally increase the number of vehicle trips in the TIF area, The
following mitigation measure is recommended to ensure that potential impacts can be reduced to a
less than significant level.
Mitigation Measure 14. The project proponenl shall, prior to issuance of building permits, pay the
City of Dublin Downtown Traffic Impact Fee at the rate that is effective at the time of issuance.
With the incorporation of Mitigation 14, the impacts relative to Transportation and Traffic would be
reduced to a level of less-than-significant.

51q,
c) Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either an increase in traffic levels or a change in
location that results in substantial safety risks? NI. The project is not located within the vicinity of an
existing or planned airport.
d) Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g. sharp curves or dangerous
intersections) or incompatible useS, such as farm equipment? LS. The conceptual site plan,
including site access points and on"site circulation, has been reviewed for conformance with the City
of Dublin Public Works, Fire and Police Departments' safety standards. Although the final, precise
design for the proposed project has not been submitted by the project proponent, impiementalion of
the following mitigation measure will ensure that no public safety hazards will be created.
Mitigation Measure 15. The final design of the project shall meet all Dublin Public Works
Department, Police Department and Fire Department policies and standards for site access, internal
driveway widths, and corner radii.
With the incorpIJration of Mitigation 15, the impacts relative to design hazards would be maintained
at a level of less-than-sig nificant.
e) Result in inadequate emergency access? LS. The project has been designed with aT-shaped,
shared driveway access to rear"loading garages. This complies with Dublin Police Department and
Alameda County Fire Department requirements for a project of Ihis size. All-of the homes front the
Starward Drive public right-of-way and are accessible to emergency response services from that
approach. No impacts are therefore anticipated wilh regard to emergency access and no mitigation
measures are required.
~ Result in inadequate parking capacity? LS. The proposed project would supply parking at a ratio of
2.0 spaces per unit within individual garages. The site plan indicates that the project design would
allow 14 parking spaces along Starward Drive. The number of curb cuts has been minimized in the
project design, to retain on-street parking. This quantity of parking meets City parking requirements
so that no impacts would be created and no mitigations are required.
g) Conflict with adopted policies, plans or programs supporting alternative transportation (such as bus
turnouts and bicycle racks)? NI. The proposed project would not result in barriers or hazards to
pedeslrians or bicyciists. A sidewalk currently exists along the west side of the project area along
Starward Drive. This sidewalk would serve as access for all of the units for pedestrian and for
pedestrians walking their bicycles. The sidewaik would be enhanced with street trees. No significant
impacts are anticipated and no mitigation measures are required.
XVI. Utilities and Service Systems
The project site is served by the following service providers:

Proiect Impacts and MitiQation
Will the project:
a-b) Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the applicable Regional Water Quality Control Board,
or require or result in the construction of new water or wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of
existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? LS.
According to the representatives of DSRSD, a sewer line has been constructed within Starward
Drive, which would adequately accommodate anticipated wastewater requirements of the project.
Untreated effluent wouid be transported to DSRSD's Regional Treatment Plant in Pleasanton for
treatment prior to being discharged in to the East Bay Discharge A~thority's oulfallline for eventual
disposal into the San Francisco Bay. DSRSD representatives indicate that adequate capacity exists
wilhin the regional treatment facility to accommodate this project. The appiicant would be
responsible for any permits or fees necessary to be connected to the system. No significant impacts
are anticipated and no mitigation measures are needed.
c) Require or result in the construction of new storm water drainage facilities or expansion of existing
facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? NI. This topic was
previously addressed in Section VIII, Hydrology and Water Quality.
d) Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project from existing water entitlements and
resources, or are new or expanded entitlements needed? LS. No new entillements are necessary.
DSRSD staff indicate thaI adequate long-term water supplies are available from Zone 7 and olher
sources to serve the propoSl;Jd project. The applicant would be responsible for any permits or fees
necessary 10 be connected to the system. No mitigation measures are needed.
e) Result in e determination by the wastewater treatment provider, which serves or mey serve the
project, that it has adequate capacity to serve the project's projected demand in addition to the
providers existing commitments? LS. DSRSD representatives indicale that adequate capacity exists
within lhe regional treatment facility to accommodate this project in addition to the District's existing
commitments. The applicant would be responsible for any permits or fees necessary to be
connected to the system. No significant impacts are anllcipated and no mitigation measures are
need ed.

~ Be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to eccommodate the project's solid waste
disposal needs? LS. The City of Dublin contracts with the Amador Valley Industries disposal
company to collect solid waste from households ad businesses and transport it to the Altamont
Landfill, located in Eastern Alameda County. The Landfill currentiy has capacity that is not
anticipated to be filled unlil the year 2008, Increased recycling and waste diversion could exlend lhe
capacity of the landfill until 2011. Amador Valley Industries aiso operates a curbside recycling
service to ensure that the City's waste slream complies with state requirements for the reduction of
solid waste, The most currenl information available indicates that Dublin exceeds state
requirements for reducing solid waste, citywide. Although approval of the proposed project wiil
incrementally increase the amount of solid waste, any such increases will be accommodated with
existing facilities in combination with the City's recycling program. The City of Dublin's former
contracl with Livermore-Dublin Disposal Company expires June 2005.
g) Comply with federal, state and local statutes and regulations related to solid waste? NI. The most
current information available indicales that the curbside recycling and construction debris recycling
programs established by the City have exceeded state, federal and local regulations and
requirements for reducing soiid waste, citywide, This project will be required to participate in these
programs.
XVII. Mandatory Findings of Significance
a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce
the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-
sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number of or restrict
the range of a rare or endangered plant or animai or eliminate imporlant examples of the--major
periods of California history or prehistory? No. The preceding analysis indicates that the proposed
project will nol have a significant adverse impact on overall environmental quality, including
biological resources or cultural resources,
b) Does the project have impacts that are individuelly limited, but cumulatively considerable?
("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when
viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects and the
effects of probable future projects). No, although incremental Increases in certain areas can be
expected as a result of constructing this project, the impacts of the project were anticipated and
mitigated.
c) Does the project have environmental effects that will cause substantial adverse effects on human
beings, either directly or indirectly? No. No such impacts have been discovered in the course of
preparing Ihis Inilial Study,
