Appeal of Planning Commission Denial of Variance and Site Development
Review for Dublin Security Storage PA 01-008 (File # 450-40/410-30)
On November 27, 2001, the Dublin Planning Commission denied a request from Dublin
Security Storage, located at 6005 Scarlett Court, for a Variance and Site Development
Review for expansion of an existing warehouse and outdoor storage facility with additional
storage units, totaling approximately 10,000 square feet. The Applicant has filed a letter of
appeal of the denial by the Planning Commission based on 1) The variance to the setback
regulations should be granted because other self-storage facilities have received approval
for zero rear or side yard setbacks; 2) The existing General Plan FAR density measurements
substantially reduce the buildable area allowed, and previously approved expansions of this
facility prior to the addition of the density ranges to the General Plan would not have been
permitted; and 3) The City Council should allow a higher FAR for this site to permit further
expansion consistent with the 1987 General Plan which was in effect when the property was
purchased.
Following a public hearing on January 15, 2002, the City Council determined that a field
trip to the site should be conducted prior to rendering a decision on the appeal.
The field trip began on site at approximately 4:00 p.m., with Mayor Lockhart and
Councilmembers McCormick, Oravetz and Zika present.
ADJOURNMENT
The field trip concluded at approximately 4:40 p.m.
