development scenano WIth that of the proposed Development Plan .<\ll projectIons are m constant
1999 dollars
.
~
As shown m ExlnbIt 9, the proposed Development Plan 15 projected to requrre lugher General Fund
expendItures than the Speclfic Plan development scenano over the 20-year analysIS penod
However, the Development Plan IS also projected to generate lugher General Fund revenues than the
Specmc Plan development scenano over the 20-year analysIS penod
~
~
Overall EDA W projects that the proposed Development Plan will ofrer supenor fiscal rmpact
perfonnance m companson to the Speclfic Plan Over the 20-year analysIs penod, the proposed
Development Plan generates $5,665 298 more m General Fund surpluses than the Speclfic Plan
development scenano
BJ
~
At a dIscount rate of 8 percent, the net present value (NPV) of tlus d1frerence IS $2,140,468 at a
dIscount rate of 10 percent, the net present value IS $1,721,047 These dIscount rates represent
conservatIve mdusrry standard puDlIc mvestment return eADectaUons for a development project of
tlus scope

Companson of End State FIScal Performance
~
In adalllon to analyzmg the fiscal performance of phased lffiolementatIon of the Specriic Plan
development scenano and the proposed Development Plan, EDA W also performed an end state
anal YSIS of these plans The end state anal) SIS prOjected fiscal perrormance assummg that both plans
were fully rmplemented (I e, bwlt-out) m one year Wlnle such an analysIs does not reflect the "real
world' mcremental pace of development, It does provIde another persDecuve m evaluaung fiscal
perfonnance
.
~
~
As WIth the phased rmplementatIon analysIS, the proposed Development Plan IS projected to requITe
h.1gher General Fund expenchtures wrule also generaung Ingher General Fund revenues than the
SpecIfic Plan Overall, the Development Plan IS projected to generate $13,634 more m General Fund
surplus than the SpecIfic Plan m an end state condItIon GIven the scope of tlus analyslS, EDA W
does not conSIder tlus d.1fference to be staUStlcally slgmficant

L\.reas F, G and H," ED.\W, September 28,1999
Dear Mr Porto
EconoITllcs Research AssocIates (ERA) v. as retamed by the CIty of DUblIn to
pro, Ide an mdependent reVIew of the fiscal analysIs prepared for three Dlanrung
areas of the Dublm Ranch portIon of the Eastern DublIn development project ERA.
IS uruquely qualIfied to perform tlus reVIew, because ERA. conducted the fiscal
analysIs of the SpecIfic Plan for Eastern Dublm m the early 1990s It IS reasonaole
and appropnate that the CIty ofDublm obtam such an obJectIve, thrrd-pany reVIew
Defore proceedmg Wlth the development
METHODOLOGY
ERA s reVIew began WIth a perusal of the Fmal FIscal Impact A,naJ\ SIS '
and Its supportmg "Techrucal AppendIX" volume Trus produced a number ofmmal
quesTIons and comments For example
o Is It reasonable to assume office uses generate );80 per square root In
ta.>..able retaIl sales?
o Why are PublIc Worls cost estImates decreased by 25% m tne mmal five
years?
o Property Transfer Ta.>..es could have been estImated on tIIDmg 0; sales,
rather than on a per capIta factor
o A.re bulldmg perrrut fees aVaIlable to cover all General Fund needs, or
are they set as fees for servIce?

Perhaps It should not have been a surpnse to ERA.., but we found most of our
sIgmficant concerns had already been raIsed by the CIty Manager 10 hIS
correspondence to EDA W m July and September It appears the reVIew to date by
the CIty Manager and ms staff has been quIte thorough
ER~ COMMENTS
ERA spot checked the math 10 a few of the spread sheets and revIewed the
entIre fiscal model for possIble conceptual errors The analYSIS conducted by
ED A.. W appears to hold up well to tills mspectlOo A.s noted above, tne most
sIgruficant concerns have already been debated, revIsed, or defended through the
correspondence between ED A. W and the CIty Manager ER.A.' s remalmng
comments may be stated as follows (m no partIcular order)
fD
a It IS lughly speculanve to assume that DublIn Ranch office SDace WlU
generate an average of $80 per square foot m taxable retaIl sales, gIven
the mcreasmg role of the mternet, the lack of coherent polIcy on taAatIon
of mternet sales, and the unknown share of non-retmJ.store taAable sales
that occurs 10 10dustnal locatlOns On the other hand, the senSItlvlty

analYSIS VI hleh mcludes reduced sales levels, and even zero taAable sales
m office space, adequately presents the ImpilcatlOns of a shonfall from
thIS re\ eoue source
o It IS unclear to ERA. that It IS appropnate to mclude BUlldmg PermIt
revenue m a companson of operatmg revenues and costs Some cItIes set
bUlldmg penmt fees to Just cover the costs of morutonng and planmng
for new development, thereby creatmg no net mcrease m revenue for the
General Fund Other CItIes set these fees hIgher, but do so m order to
fund one-tIme capItal needs of new development WIthout lnowmg
Dublm s use of these funds, It IS hard to tell If they should be mcluded,
but they do constItute 70 to 40 percent of total revenue 10 toe early years
and maLe the dIfference berureen a posltlve and negatIve cash flow for
the City
"
o From the correspondence and ER.4's mdependent cross cheeLmg, It
appears that per caPIta projectlon methods for property transfer t3.),.es,
mterest mcome and other revenue factors, whIle not the most analytIcally
dIrect \\ ay to mah.e estImates, are none the less reasonable
approxnnanons for modelIng purposes
.
CONCLUSIONS
The land use plan for areas F, G and H of Dublm Ranch appears to De \\ell
thought out, and substantIally conSIstent WIth the SpecIfic Plan The NeIghborhood
CommercIal center proposed m the new plan appears to be an appropnate deSIgn
and scale, willeh necessItated sWItcillng some of the denSIty from retaIl to office
uses
The fiscal analYSIS of the proposed plan aopears to have been done
mhgently, WIth methods that are reasonable apprm..lmatlOns of the cost and revenue
flows that can be e:ll.pected from the development The conclusIOns from the fiscal
analysIs seem warranted based on ERA..'s revIew of the documents
If you or other CIty representatIves have quesTIons regardmg ERA.. 5 reVIew
of the fiscal analYSIS, please do not heSItate to call

East Dublm General Plan/SpecIfic Plan Amendment
(P A 98.068)
IntroductIOn
Accompanymg thIS request for an amendment to the General Plan and Eastern Dublin
SpecIfIc Plan (GP/SPA) are separate appllcatlOns for PD Development Plans for Dublin
Ranch Area F (FA 98-068) and Area G (FA 98-069) and a GP/SPA for Area G In
prepanng these Development Plans, It became apparent that the NeIghborhood
CommerCIal portIon of the area termed "Town Center-CommercIal" In the SpecIfIc Plan
IS both too large for the market It WIll ultImately serve and could be better located from a
traffic access and cIrculatIOn standpomt Marketmg and traffIc assessment studIes
undertaken In conjunctIon wIth the Development Plans further confirmed the need for
these changes to the commercIal dIstrIct The ratIonale behmd the proposed
rnodIficatlOns to the Town Center, and It s NeIghborhood CommerCIal component, called
VIllage Center m the PD applicatIOns, IS e>..plamed In thIS applIcatIOn and the P A 98-069
(A..rea G) applIcatIon
Area F IS bordered by Area E and Phase 1 of DublIn Ranch on the north, Dublm Rdnch
Area B on the east, Central Parkway to the south and DublIn Ranch Area E and property
of the Dublm Land Company on the west Area F has been decreased In SIze from 1568
acres to 1465 acres due pnmanly to the final alIgnment of Central Parh""ay from that
lllustrated m the SpecIfic Plan Because of tills reductIon, Area G has mcreased III SIze a
comparable amount
The Development Plan for Area F proposes 227 acres of Low DenSIty ReSIdentIal and
68 9 acres of Medmm DenSIty ReSIdentIal along WIth land deSIgnated for a 306 acre
ffilddle school, 10 0 acre elementary school 5 6 acre neIghborhood park., 2 0 acre
neIghborhood square and 39 acres of governmentlmstltutlOnallpubhclseffil-publIc uses
However, the Eastern DublIn SpecIfic Plan calls for Mechum-Htgh and Htgh DenSIty
ReSIdentIal, and NeIghborhood CommerCIal to be m Area F rather than the MedIUm
DenSIty ReSIdentIal proposed m thIs project By consolIdatmg these hIgher denSIty
projects III Ju>..taposrtlOn WIth the Town Center-CommercIal of Area G, the Development

documents for further mformatlOn
WhIle tlus Project meets the spmt and mtent of the Eastern DublIn SpeCIfic Plan, the land
use type and arrangement dIffers enough from the latter that a mmor modIficatron to the
East DublIn SpeCIfic Plan and General Plan IS bemg sought These mmor modrficatJOns
are due m8.1nly to the proposed relocatron of the NeIghborhood CommerCIal portIon of
the area tenned "Town Center-CommercIal" m the SpeCIfic Plan In the SpeCIfic Plan
thIS area IS located along both SIdes of the two lane TranSIt Spme (now IdentIfied as
Central Parkway and deSIgnated for four lanes) WIth HIgh DenSIty ReSIdentIal uses
munedIately adjacent on the north and south
ReVIsed vehIcular access and CIrculation patterns of the CrrculatlOn Element m the
General Plan and East DublIn SpecIfic Plan by the CIty of DublIn were one of the mam .
reasons for the relocatIon and reonentatran of the Town Center It IS belIeved that havmg
a conunerclal dIstnct frontmg dIrectly onto Central Parkway would mhIbIt traffic flow on

that artenal and such a constnctIOn would d.tvert traffic to other thoroughfares, thereby
nnpactmg traffic cIrculatIon throughout the entIre Project Area and adjacent propertIes
ThIS traffic Impact would also affect the accessIbIlIty and econOffilC vIabIhty of
busmesses located along Central Parkway In other words, neIghborhood commercJaI
uses are not an appropnate use on an artenal street Movmg the Town Center-
CommercIal south and onentIng It between two artenals separates commercIal users from
through-traffic and WIll result m a more efficlent cIrculatIon system
Relocatmg the Town Center-CommercIal area also necessItated movmg the HIgh DenSIty
and MedIUm HIgh DensIty ResIdentIal deslgnated areas to locatIOns south of Central
Parkway and adjacent to the Town Center-CommercIal area so these hIgh mtenslty
resIdentIal nelghborhoods would be better sItuated to support a vIable commercIal
dlstnct Hence, whereas the SpecIfIc Plan shows 14 acres of NeIghborhood CommercIal
10 acres of HIgh DensIty ResIdentIal, and 11 acres of MedIUm-HIgh DenSIty ResldentIdl
desIgnated lands north of Central Parkway, thIS Development Plan proposes theIr
relocatIOn and replacement by MedIUm DenSIty ResIdentIal The concept of the 'Town
Center", as presented m the SpecIfic Plan, 15 not bemg changed by thIS appbcatlOn Only
the locatIon and SIze of thIS element IS dtfferent than that shown m the SpecIfic Plan

wlthm a portIOn of the PD MedIUm-High DensIty ReSIdentIal deSIgnatIOn The approval
of thIS PD Plan will rezone the underlymg zone of the Elementary School from PD

An analYSIS has been prepared by TJKM: to detemune whether thIS proposed project land
use changes would have a greater Impact on traffic levels than those shown In Eastern
DublIn GP NSP EIR Because of the elImmatIon of the NeIghborhood CommercIal from
thIS area, traffic Impacts projected for thls Development Plan are less than those descnbed
In the Eastern DublIn GP NSP A EIR Thus, the Development Plan for the Project Area IS
conSIstent WIth the traffic studIes done for the Eastern Dublm General Plan and SpeCIfic
Plan and the subsequent amendment for a mmor mollificatIon to the CIty'S CIrculatIOn
Element approved In June 1997 For tlns reason, the traffic rarruficatIons of the Area F

ReVIsed vehIcular access and cIrculatIon patterns In the CIrculatIOn Element of the

reasons for the relocatlon and reonentatlon of the Town Center The ongmal concept for
the "Town Center" was to front onto a two lane TransIt Spme ThIS TranSIt Spme was
reVIsed to become a four lane artenal, Central Parkway Havmg a commercIal dtstnct
fronting chrectly onto Central Parkway would mhlbIt traffIC flow on that artenal and such
a constnctIon would dIvert traffic to other thoroughfares, thereby Impactmg traffic

cIrculatIOn throughout the entIre Project Area and adjacent propertIes ThIs trafflc Impact
would also affect the acceSSIbIlIty and econOTI1lC vIabIlIty of busInesses located along
Central Parkway In other words, NeIghborhood CommercIa] uses are not an appropnate
use on an artenal street MOVIng the Town Center south and onentIng It between two
artenals separates commercIal users from through-traffic and wIll result In a more
effiCIent CIrculatIOn system DIrect access to either end of Marn Street WIll be provIded
from DublIn Boulevard and Central Parkway WIth addltlOnal access avarlable by
ResIdentIal Collector C and Streets E and F to the central portlOn of Mam Street
.
One of the focal pomts of the Eastern DublIn Speclflc Plan IS the area deSIgnated as the
'Town Center-CommercIal" ThIS subarea has two dIstInct parts the General
CommerCIal area and the NeIghborhood CommerCIal area The latter IS shown In the
Plan extendIng along both SIdes of the TranSIt SpIne and' IS Intended as a pedestnan-
onented servIce, retaIl, commercIal and entertamment center servtng the darly needs of
the resIdentIal neIghborhoods surroundmg It and the more mtermlttent shoppmg,
entertamment and service needs of the larger commumty The land use emphaSIS focuses
on convemence commercIal such as corner grocery, drug store, and dry cleaners for local
resIdents, and specIalty retaIl uses such as food and clothmg boutIques, flonsts,
bookstores, statIOners, antIque shops, beauty salons, bars cafes and restaurants for the
ldIger commumty" (Eastern Dublm SpeCIfic Plan, p 36)
The current East DublIn SpeCIfic Plan calls for up to 427 000 square feet of neIghborhood
retarl, office, and resldenhal uses spbt evenly between the areas IdentIfied as Areas G and
F, and another 56,000 square feet on the DublIn Land Company property ThIS YIeld IS at .~

proposed In the Eastern DublIn SpeCIfic Plan
Current market assessment work undertaken on behalf of the applIcant by EDA W, Inc
for thIS GPAlSP A and the Development Plan for Area G (and Area F) mdtcates that the
To'WIl Center could support up to 169,200 square feet of retarl and servIce floor space at
the bUIldout of the SpecIfic Plan area Of thIS total, 155,700 square feet would be

If a large format supermarket/drug store IS not captured In the Town Center, the food and
lIquor merchandIse category would lIk.ely be represented by a rmx of smaller specIalty
food stores WhICh cater to specIfic mark.et nIches (e g bakery ethnIC foods, meat and fish
markets, etc) Normally these types of retaIl operatIOns do not generate the same hIgh
volumes of shopper traffic, as would one sIngle supermarket To help offset thIS potentIal
dIsadvantage, the Town Center IS envIsIoned In thIS Development Plan as a hIgh qualIty
rmxed-use dIStnCt that provIdes a VIbrant and pedestnan-fnendly enVIronment, presents a
clear and complementary set of nelghborhood-onented retaIl and serVIce uses, and
leverages the drawIng power of other nearby commerCIal, communIty and CIVIC uses (e g
offices churches, lodgIng, etc ) In addItIOn to the surroundIng hIgher densIty resIdentIal
and office components In order to attract and maIntaIn a dedIcated shopper and VISItor
base
As a result of the projected decreased demand, the Town Center IS proposed to be
reduced In SIze from the 28 acres IndIcated In the SpeCIfic Plan to 22 8 acres as depIcted
on the Area G Development Plan The 28 acre figure IS for both Areas F and G SInce the
SpeCIfic Plan shows the Town Center on both SIdes of the TranSIt SpIne (Central
Park \\ ay) and that street IS the dIVIdIng lIne between these two areas
Proposed Development Plan
To achIeve the IntensIty of reSIdentIal uses needed m thIS area the MedIUm-HIgh DensIty
ReSIdentIal deSIgnatIOn shown located between Central Park.way and Gleason Dnve In
the SpeCIfIc Plan was moved to Area G and replaced WIth MedIUm DenSIty ReSIdentIal
AddItIOnally, the amount of MedIUm-HIgh DenSIty ReSIdentIal shown In the SpeCIfic
Plan was mcreased from 11 0 to 26 7 acres Much of thIS Increase was pOSSI ble because
of the comparable reductIOn of the Town Center as preVIOusly descnbed
The concept of the Town Center, as presented In the SpeCIfic Plan, IS not beIng changed
by thIS applIcatIOn It remaIns the focus for convenIence commercIal and servIces for
adjacent reSIdentIal neIghborhoods and the center for entertaInment and speCIalty retaIl
uses for the larger Eastern DublIn communIty Also, the relatIonshIp of the Town Center
to nearby hIgher denSIty reSIdentIal uses remaIns the same ThIS GP/SP A IS necesSItated
maInly by the need to reonent the Town Center because of the re-desIgnatIOn of the
'TransIt Spme" (now referred to as Central Parkway) and reductIon In SIZe to be more

PrOject CIrculatIOn
An analYSIS of future traffic patterns and volumes conducted by TJKM for thIS
applIcatIon assessed the Impacts of reonentatIOn addItIon of Town Center acreage from
Area F, the reductIOn In overall SIze of the Town Center and the eAchange of reSIdentIal
UnIts between Areas F and G whIch proVIdes more UnIts In Area G The traffic analysIs
led to the conclUSIOn that a commercIal dIstnct centered on Central Parkway would
InhIbIt traffic flow on that artenal and such a constnctIOn would dIvert traffic to other
thoroughfares thereby ImpactIng traffic CIrculatIOn throughout the entIre DublIn Ranch
area and adjOInIng propertIes MOVIng the Town Center south and onentIng It between
two artenals separates commerCIal users from through-traffic and WIll result In a more
effiCIent CIrculatIon system for the entIre Eastern DublIn area
The Development Plan for the Project Area IS conSIstent WIth the traffic studIes done for .
the Eastern DublIn SpeCIfic Plan and the subsequent amendment to the CIty's CIrculatIOn

approxImately 1 ,311 * acres The portIOn of Dublm Ranch that has been annexed to the
CIty of DublIn conSIsts of 1,111 acres ThIS Stage 1 Development Plan IS bemg submItted

P A 94-030 Therefore thiS Development Plan wIll also serve as an amendment for a
rrunor modificatIOn to that prezomg These modIficatIOns are addressed m a General Plan
and SpecIfic Plan Amendment (P A 98-070) bemg processed concurrently WIth thiS
Development Plan
,(()-
DublIn Ranch Area H IS bordered by the e:xtensIOn of Dublm Boulevard on the north,
Area C of Dublm Ranch to the east, 1-580 on the south and property of the DublIn Land
Company to the west The project area IS 70 8 acres In size ThiS area has two land use
deSignatIOns, bemg General CommerCial and Campus Office The Eastern DublIn
SpeCIfic Plan shows 359 acres deSIgnated as General CommercIal and 36 7 acres as
Campus Office These acreages have been modified m thiS Stage I Development Plan to
propose 43 9 acres of Campus Office, 16 4 acres of General Commercial and the
remaIrung 10 5 acres that could be developed as eIther all General CommercIal or all
Campus Office
The Development Plan Project Descnpuon for Area H descnbes the phYSICal nature of
the area, eAlsUng land uses, the nature of the development proposed for It, and the
commuruty theme Please refer to that document for further mformatIOn on thiS sIte
Area H (P A 98-070) IS a Stage I Development Plan as defined by SectIOn 8 32 030(A) of

and textual mformatIOn suffiCient to establIsh conSIstency With the General Plan and
Eastern DublIn SpeCIfic Plan
Conceptual Development Plan
()
SpecIfically, the Development Plan proposes to mcrease Campus Office uses as either 72
acres or 17 7 acres above what IS depIcted on the SpeCific Plan (the dIfference bemg
whether the 10 5 acre GC/CO flex parcellS developed as Campus Office or not) and the

Development Plan proposes that the mIdpoInt of the densIty range of the floor area ratIo
(FAR) for Campus Office uses be Increased from 0 35 In the SpecIfic Plan to 0 45, wIth
60 FAR beIng the maxImum of the range ThIs WIll allow the fleXIbIlIty to exceed 45
FAR for some parcels, however, the average FAR for all CO parcels would not exceed
45 FAR These mInor modIficatIOns create the necessIty for thIS General Plan/SpecIfic
Plan Amendment (GP A/SP A)
.---
ThIS FAR reVISIon would set a maxImum of 292,941 sq ft of General CommercIal wIth
the 'Least Office" scenano or a maxImum of 1,066,349 sq ft of Campus Office In the
Most Office" scenano However, In eIther scenano the total square footage of any
COmbInatIOn of GC and CO shall not exceed 1,244,945 For companson, the East DublIn
SpecIfic Plan has 390,951 square feet of General CommercIal and 559 528 square feet of
Campus Office, for a total of 950,479 square feet If the property IS subdIvIded
IndIVIdual parcels may be developed at greater than theIr respecuve ITlldpoInt FARs (025
for GC and 0 45 for CO) as long as the overall square footage maxImums are not
exceeded For example, If 26 9 acres of GC-desIgnated land IS developed and It IS
subdIVIded Into two parcels, one of those parcels could be developed at a FAR greater
than 0 25 as long as a correspondIng decrease In the FAR on the other parcel k.ept the
overall bUIldIng square footage at or below the maxImum 292,941 sq ft figure
The changes descnbed above are the result of marJ...et assessment studIes undertdl.en by
EDA W, Inc for Area H that concludes that the 1-580 comdor IS 'over-zoned" for
regIOnal/commuDlty-servIng commercIal uses As mentIOned In the Area G Development
Plan and GP A/SP A Project DescnptIOns, the comdor IS saturated WIth large format
specIfic marJ...et and full servIce retaIlers ApproXImately 150 acres of land Intended for .
such users are sull aVaIlable In the SpecIfic Plan area, however, recent mark.et studIes
show the bmldout populatIOn of Eastern DublIn WIll not be at hIgh enough levels to
warrant a commercIal area of thIS SIze AddItIOnally, the market assessment IndIcates a
consIderable demand at present for regIonal and headquarters office land That need IS
espeCIally acute for large parcels of such land It IS for these reasons that the
Development Plan for Area H IS propOSIng the fleXIbIlIty to have eIther a 72 acre or 17 7
acre reductIon In General CommerCIal and correspondIng Increase In Campus Office-
deSIgnated property Because demand cannot be predIcted WIth complete accuracy very
far Into the future, the 10 5 acres at the southwest corner of Area H IS beIng shown as
haVIng a flex deSIgnatIOn of eIther GC or CO
Acreages allocated to deSIgnated land uses depIcted on the proposed Development Plan
alternatIves have been compared to the approved SpeCIfic Plan and are gIven below The
two alternatIves are Illustrated, one for the maAlmUm and the other for the ITllDlmUm GC
and CO area acreages pOSSIble under thIS proposal The follOWIng table uses a denSIty
ITlld-range of 045 FAR for the Stage I Development Plan CO uses whIle a denSIty ITlld-

An analysIs has been prepared by TJKM to deterrrune whether thIs project proposal
would have a greater Impact on traffic than levels shown m the Eastern DublIn GP NSP
EIR Because office uses generate consIderably less P M peak hour traffic than do retml/
commercIal uses, and the P M peak]s the cnhcal traffic penod for Eastern DublIn, the
analysIs concluded the traffic Impact of thIs Development Plan would be less than
antICIpated by the Specific Plan, even though more bUIldmg square footage IS possIble
