STUDY File No, PA 99-010 Lead Agency: City of Dublin Prepared: January 2000 ATTACHMENT 5 INTRODUCTION This initial study has been prepared by the City of Dublin to assess the potential environmental effects of the proposed General Plan Amendment, Planned Development (PD) District Rezone, Conditional Use Permit and Site Development Review for the Corrie Center Phase II project. The' analysis is intended to satisfy-the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and provide the City with adequate information for project review. This initial study includes a project description, environmental checklist and discussion focused upon issues identified in the checklist. In summary, this Initial Study concludes that the project will not pose any significant adverse environmental impacts. The Initial Study was prepared based upon the location of the project, staff office review, field review, comments from City, County and local agencies, use of City Planning Documents, the CEQA Law and Guidelines, and City of Dublin CEQA Guidelines. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed project, located at the south-east comer of San Ramon Road and Dublin Boulevard, consists of constructing a new four-story office building (46, 110 square feet) with one sub-grade parking level and a two- level (one sub-grade level) parking structure. The site area totals approximately 4.5 acres and is currently developedwith a three-story (70,790 square feet) L-shaped office building, surface parking and landscaped areas. The Proposed four-story Office building would be located to the rear of the existing building and wdi~ be connected to it via a one-story glass enclosed foyer. The existing building fagade will be remodeled (new windows, parapet and paint) to complement the new buildings architecture. Refer to Vicinity Map and Project Plans attached as Figure 1 and Figure 2, respectively. The existing General Plan land use designation for the project site is Retail/Office. The project is located within "Zone 2: General Commercial" of the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan and the proposed project complies with this desiguation. The existing zoning is C-l, Retail Commercial Zoning District. The project requires the following planning permit approvals: 1) an amendment to the General Plan to allow an increase in the Floor Area Ratio for Retail/Office designated land from a range of.25 -.5 to .25 - .6; 2) a Planned Development (PD) District Rezone that includes a Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plan to allow an increase in building height orS' 3" from 45 feet (as allowed in the C-1 Zoning District regulations) to 53' 3"; 3) a Conditional Use Permit to allow a portion of the required parking to be located on the adjacent parcel and 4) a Site Development Review for the construction ora 46, 100 square foot office building, two-level par-king structure and installation of surface parking, landscaping and signage. i FIGURE 1 - Vicinity MaP 01.

Other public agencies whose approval is required: (e.g., permits, financing approval, or participation agreement.) - Building permits (City of Dublin) - Utility connection and permits (Dublin San Ramon Services District) ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS POTENTIALLY AFFECTED: The environmental factors checked below would be potentially affected by this project, involving at least one impact that is a "Potentially Significant Impact" as indicated by the checklist on the following pages. ~--~ Aesthetics ~ Agriculture Resources [--~ Air Quality ~-~ Biological Resources r-1 Cultural Resources ~-~ Geology/Soils ~--~ Hazards & Hazardous Materials ~-~ Hydrology / Water Quality [-~ Land Use / Planning . t Mineral Resources ~ Noise ~ Population / Housing ~-~ Public Services [--~ Utilities/Service Systems ~-~ Recreation ~-~ Transportationfrraffic ~ Mandatory Findings of Significance DETERMINATION: (To be completed by the Lead Agency) On the basis of this initial evaluation: ~ I fred that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. ~-~ I find that although the proposed project could have a si~maificant effect on the environment, there w/Il not be a si~cmificant effect in this case because revisions in the project have been made by or agreed to by the project proponent. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. [-~ I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an E~NWIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required. [~ I find that the proposed project MAY have a "potentially significant impact" or "potentially siguificant unless mitigated" impact on the environment, but at least one effect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed. I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, ecause all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards, and Co) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project, nothing further is required. Sigaaature Date Printed name: Anne Kinney, Assistant Planner For: PA 99-010 Corrie Center Phase II project, GPA, PD Rezone, CUP & SDR EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS: 1) 2) A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by the information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact" answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the one involved (e.g., the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A "No Impact" answer should be explained where it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards (e.g., the project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific screening analysis). All answers must take account of the whole action involved, including off-site as well as on-site, cumulative as well as project-level, indirect as well as direct, and construction as well as operational impacts. Once the lead agency has determined that a particular physical impact may occur, then the checklist answers must indicate whether the impact is potentially significant, less than significant with mitigation, or less than significant. "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect may be significant. If there are one or more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made, an EIR is required. "Negative Declaration: Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect fiom "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less Than Significant Impact." The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level (mitigation measures fiom Section XVII, "Earlier Analyses," may be cross-referenced). 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration. Section 15063(c)(3)(D). In this case, a brief discussion should identify the following: a) Earlier Analysis Used. Identify and state where they are available for review. b) Impacts Adequately Addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were within the scope of and adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and state whether such effects were addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis. c) Mitigation Measures. For effects that are "Less than Significant with Mitigation Measures Incorporated," describe the mitigation measures which were incorporated or refined from the earlier document and the extent to which they address site-specific conditions for the project. Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to information sources for potential impacts (e.g., general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a previously prepared or outside document should, where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is substantiated. Supporting Information Sources: A source list should be attached, and other sources used or individuals contacted should be cited in the discussion. This is only a suggested form, and lead agencies are free to use different formats; however, lead agencies should normally address the questions from this checklist that are relevant to project's environmental effects in whatever format is selected. The explanation of each issue should identify: a) The significance criteria or threshold, if any, used to evaluate each question; and b) The mitigation measure identified, if any, to reduce the impact to less than significance Environmental Impacts. The source of determination is listed in parenthesis. See listing of sources used to determine each potential impact at the end of the checklist. A full discussion of each item is'~ found following the checklist I. AESTHETICS - Would the project: a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista?

Geotechnical Exploration, Corrie Center Phase II, 7950 Dublin Blvd., ENGEO Inc., Dated 12/I3/99 Traffic Study, Corrie Center Phase II, Omni-Means, dated August, 1999 EVALUATION OF ENWIRONMENTAL IMPACTS 1. Aesthetics.. Environmental Setting: The proposed project is located within Dublin's downtown area. The property is currently developed with a three-story office building, surface parking and landscaped areas and is surrounded by commercial development. There are no features of aesthetic significance in the immediate vicinity of the site. The proposed project would be visible from 1-580, a designated scenic highway. Project Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 1 a through 1 d. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. The City's Zoning Ordinance requires that any new structure to go through the Site Development Review permit process. The project proponents are applying for a Site Development Review planning permit As part of that process, architectural compatibility and aesthetic elements are considered. The project proponents will be required to incorporate architectural design and elements that are compatible with the architecture of surrounding uses, and the project will be conditioned to screen all unattractive uses, such as roof-top air conditioning equipment, from public view. The project proponents are applying for a Planned Development Rezone to increase the allowable building height · limit for the property. An increase in the building height by 8' 3" from 45 feet (as allowed in the C-1 Zoning District regulations) to 53' 3" is appropriate as the project is located in an urbanized area, there are no adjacent residences that would be affected and quality views of Dublin will not be negatively impacted. The proposed project will not result in the obstruction of any scenic vista or view open to the public from 1-580 Freeway or other adjacent roadways. The project will not create a new source of substantial light or glare, as the project will be conditioned to meet all City building and planning standards. 2. Agricultural Resources Environmental Setting: The proposed project is located within Dublin's downtown area. The property is currently developed with a three-story office building, surface parking and landscaped areas. Proiect Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 2a through 2c. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. The property is currently developed with commercial uses, and there is no recent history of a~icuttural production on the site. The property is not designated as prime or unique farmland and is not under Williamson Act Contact. 2. Air Quality Environmental Setting; The project site is located within what the Bay Area Air Quality Management District defines as the Livermore-Diablo Valley, a sheltered inland area surrounded by hills to the west, south and east. Most 2O of the airflow into. the southern portions of the Valley is accomplished through only two gaps in the hills: the Hayward and Niles canyons. Local wind data show the frequent occurrence of low wind speed and calm conditions (the latter approximately 23 percent of the time). These local limitations on the capacity for horizontal dispersion of air pollutants combined with the regional characteristic of restricted vertical dispersion give the area a high potential for regional air quality problems. Project Impacts: There are no significant impacts to Items 3a through 3e. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. Although the proposed project will generate additional new traffic (see Section 15 Transportation/Traffic), the increase in air emissions as a result of this new traffic is not substantial, or significant enough to result in the deterioration of ambient air quality. These additional vehicles will generate quantities of carbon monoXide, reactive organic gasses, nitrous oxide, sulfur dioxide and particulate matter (PM10). However, the location of the proposed project would be adjacent to on and offramps to the 1-580 Freeway and would be in close proximity to the proposed West Dublin BART station. The location of the project would limit the amount of travel to and from the highway and the proposed rapid transit station, thereby minimi~ng vehicle trips and associated air quality impacts in conformity with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District's Clean Air Plan. In addition, the proposed project will not expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutants or create objectionable odors. Construction of the site may generate an increase in dust and particulate matter caused by'site excavation and grading activities. The City's standard grading ordinance requirements require measures to ensure that these types of short-term construction impacts are minimized. 4, Biological Resources Environmental Setting: The site is currently developed with a three-story office building, surface parking and landscaped areas. Dense vegetation occurs along the site's southern and southwestern boundary. A significant stand of Redwood and Eucalyptus Trees exists along the site's western property line. The site contains a mature Black Walnut Tree with a 52" tnmk diameter that would be removed as part of the development of the site. Project Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 4a through 4f. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. The project will be located on an already developed site. The project proposes to retain all vegetation along the site's southern and western perimeter. An aborists report has been prepared to evaluate the health of the Black Walnut Tree. This report, prepared by Robert B. Hoffmann, Certified Arborist, determined that the root and branch structure of the tree has been irreversible damaged by construction of the parking lot and by radical pruning. The tree is in poor health and the report recommends that the Walnut Tree be removed. The landscape plan for the project proposes the planting of several new trees on-site. The City of Dublin Heritage Tree Ordinance which becomes effective on January 21, 2000 does not protect non-native trees, such as Black Walnuts. Field visits to the site have not identified any endangered, threatened or rare species of animals. 5, 10 Cultural and Mineral Resources Environmental Setting: The 'site is currently developed with a three-story office building, surface parking and landscaped areas. The project site is located within an urbanized area. Project Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 5a through 5d and 10a through 10b. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. The project site is currently developed. There are no 'known cultural or mineral resources existing on the property. 6. Geology and Soils Environmental Setting: The general city of Dublin and the Tri-Valley area lie on the east side of the Calaveras Fault within the San Ramon Valley basin. According to the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist (1982), the majority of the western portion of the site is located within a "Special Study Zone" for the Calaveras fault. The Calaveras fault zone is a seismically active member ora family of right-lateral strike-slip faults, including the San Andreas and Hayward faults. According to the Geotechnical Investigation prepared for the property by ENGEO, dated December 13, 1999, the active trace of the Calaveras fault lies approximately 300 feet west of the project site. There are no known active faults crossing the site. The project site consists of approximately 4.5 acres and is irregular in shape. The property is developed with an L-shaped office building and surface parking. The site is relatively flat, with elevations ranging between 360 and 365 feet. Subsurface soils on site have been characterized as deposits of clay, silt and sand. There are no unique or geologic or physical features on site. Project Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 6d and 6e and less than significant impacts to Items 6a, 6b and 6c. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. The Calaveras Fault is capable of generating a significant level of ground shaking in the event of a seismic occurrence. All structures shall be developed in compliance with the Uniform Building Code (UBC) requirements to reduce the impact of shaking on the project to less than significant. The probability of seismic related hazards, such as liquefaction, or landslides is considered low due to the composition of the soil and location of the site. On site soils consist of medium dense clayey sand which are not considered liquefiable. However, medium dense clay soils are relatively weak and potentially compressible. The site shall be developed in accord with the recommendations of the geotechnical report to reduce the impact of these soils on the project to less than significant. All earthwork shall be in accordance with the City of Dublin Grading Ordinance and to Public Works Department standards and regulations. The project site is currently developed and relatively level with no unique geologic or physical features. 22 7. Hazards and Hazardous Materials Environmental Setting: The site is currently developed with a three-story office building, surface parking and landscaped areas. The project proposes to develop a second office building and parking structure on site. Office uses generally do not create hazardous environments. Project Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 7a- 7h. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Stud3 The types of uses proposed and existing generally do not create hazardous environments. As part of the Site Development Review process, proposals for new construction will be conditioned, as necessary, by the Fire Police, and other agencies for emergency access requirements and other concerns. 8. Hydrology and Water Quality Environmental Setting: No surface water exists on site. An improved flood control facility is located adjacent to the southwestern comer of the property. The majority of the site is relatively level, surface runoff and storm water drains into several catch basins lOcated on the project site and surrounding roadways. The catch basins are drained by the Alameda County Zone 7 Water Agency Canal and eventually drain to the San Francisco Bay. Local waterways or tributaries in the area include Dublin Creek, the Alamo Creek and Canal, and the Martin Canal (or Martin Canyon Creek). , According to the-Geotechnical Investigation prepared for the property by ENGEO, dated December 13, 1999, groundwater was encountered in several of the on-site borings, ranging in depth from 26 to 31 feet. ' A portion of the project site is located within an area designated as Zone X on the FIRM (Flood Insurance Rate Map) Flood Map, which is an area of between the identified 100 year and 500 year base flood elevations. Proieet Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 8a through 8j. This determination is based on the sources referenCed in the Initial Study. The project is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area and will not expose people of property to flooding or other water-related hazards. The proposed building will have one-level of sub- grade basement parking and a two-level (one-level sub-grade) parking structure. The proposed parking structure will be founded approximately 11 feet below the ~ound surface, refer to Figure 2 Site Plans. According to the Geotechnical report, groundwater was detected between 26 and 31 feet below grade. The construction of the site including sub-level parking will not have a significant eft%ct on groundwater levels in the area. There are no water supply lines or wells on the proposed site. 23 Land Use and Planning Environmental Setting: The project site consists of 4.5 acres of developed land located in Dublin's downtown area. The property is located on the southeast quadrant of the intersection of Dublin Blvd and San Ramon Road. The site is located adjacent to the I-580 on/off-ramps and approximately .5 miles west of 1-680. The site is currently developed with an L-shaped three-story office building, surface parking and landscaped areas and is surrounded by commercial development. The General Plan designation for the site is Retail/Office and the zoning designation for the site is C-l, Retail Commercial Zoning District. The property is also located within Zone 2: General Commercial of the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan and the proposed project complies with this designation. The Downtown Dublin Specific Plan was adopted in 1987 for the purposes of enhancing the appearance and economical vitality of the downtown portion of Dublin. Project Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 9a, 9b and 9c. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. The project would not physically divide an established community. The project is located within the downtown area of Dublin, an area of commercial and retail development, bordered by 1-580 to the south, Amador Valley Blvd. to the north, SanRamon Road to the west and Village Parkway to the east. The proposed project would be compatible with the surrounding office uses and retail developments. The City of Dublin has no adopted habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan which would conflict with this application. The proposed project is consistent with the Zoning Ordinance designation of C~I Retail Commercial in which office and profeSSional uses are permitted. The project proponents are applying for a Planned Development Rezone to increase the allowable building height limit for the property. An increase in the building height by 8' 3" from 45 feet (as allowed in the C-1 Zoning District regulations) to 53' 3" is appropriate as the project is located in an urbanized area and there are no adjacent residences that would be affected. The proposed project meets the intent of the Retail/Office land use designation of the Dublin General Plan which allows business and professional office uses. However, the project currently conflicts with the floor area ratio requirement of the General Plan which ranges from .25 to .5. The project site plans indicate a site coverage of.59. The General Plan Amendment proposes to increase the floor area ratio for Retail/Office land use designations to allow a range of.25 to .6. Retail/Office designated property within the city exists within the downtown area and on the west side of San Ramon Road. The Dublin General Plan contains policies which encourage the intensification of the downtown area through the development of mixed use, pedestrian-orientated development.' It is city policy to require all developers to finance the cost of a traffic study to evaluate traffic, and circulation impacts of a proposed project. This will ensure that any traffic impacts generated by a project will be adequately identified and mitigated to eliminate impacts to city roadways. The City Site Development Review process will ensure that the site has adequate parking, landscaping and access to accommodate the proposed building floor area. The increase in allowable floor area ratio range for Retail/Office uses is appropriate, as it is consistent with General Plan policies which 24 /Office areas located on the edge of the downtown area as city policy requires projects to be reviewed on an individual basis to identify and reduce any potential traffic or other project impacts to a level of insignificance. This project level review will ensure that the density of the proposed development will be compatible with the site, traffic patterns and surrounding uses. The project proposes a new four-story building to be constructed to the rear of the existing building on site and would be connected to it via a single-story enclosed foyer. The project site is located within .5 miles of the proposed West Dublin BART Station at Golden Gate Drive adjacent to 1-580. Planned roadway improvements in the area (see Section 15 Transportation/Traffic) include the construction of a new roadway parallel to Dublin Boulevard connecting Amador Plaza Road through Golden Gate Drive to Regional Street. The property is separated from Regional Street by Earl Anthony's Bowl (this property is under the same ownership as the subject parcel). The property owner has agreed to construct a pedestrian pathway from the proposed project through the adjacent parcel to Regional Street, providing future office employees a direct pedestrian link to the furore West Dublin BART Station. A condition of project approval will require that this pedestrian pathway be constructed prior to 2006. The project as proposed is consistent with the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan which designates the property within Zone 2: General Commercial. The Specific Plan was adopted in 1987 and states that the project area is constrained from substantial development intensification due to the traffic capacity of the San Ramon Road and Dublin Boulevard intersection which at that time operated at a level-of-service E. Since 1987, both Dublin Boulevard and San Ramon Road have been widened to six-lane roadways to improve downtown circulation. A traffic study has been prepared by Omni Means to evaluate the projects' impact on the circulation pattern of the city. The study determined that the project would not have a significant impact on the traffic capacity of San Ramon Road and Dublin Boulevard intersection which would continue to operate at a level-of-service C or better. (Refer to Section 15 Transportation/Traffic). However, the proposed project will generate additional vehicular trips in the area which will impact city roadways. The applicant will be contributing u'affic funds which will assist in offsetting costs of public roadway maintenance and planned roadway improvements, thereby reducing impacts to no impact. The Site Development Review process has determined that the project site has adequate access and landscaping. Conditional Use Permit approval is required to allow a portion of the required parking (approximately 17 parking spaces) to be located "off-site" along the major north-south access easement to the east of the proposed building on the adjacent parcel2 Refer to Figure 2, Site Plans. In conclusion, the development of this project at a floor area ratio of .59 would not have a significant effect on' the environment. 25 11. Noise Environmental Setting: The project is located in Dublin's downtown area. The site is currently developed with office uses and is surrounded by commercial development. The site is adjacent to San Ramon Road (a six-lane arterial) to the west, Dublin Boulevard (a six-lane arterial) to the north and 1-580 off-ramps to the southwest. Project Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 1 la through 1 lf. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. The proposed office development will not result in the exposure of people to severe noise levels, groundbourne vibration and will not result in siguificant permanent or temporary increase in ambient noise levels. The project is not located within an airport land use plan or within the vicinity ora private airstrip. The project shall be conditioned to comply with Title 24 of the State Uniform Building Code, interior noise levels to ensure that office employees will not be adversely impacted by traffic noise. 12. Population and Housing Environmental Setting: The City of Dublin's population, as of January 1, 1998, was estimated by the State Department of Finance to be 27,750. Significant population growth is anticipated for the City based on planned residential growth in Eastern Dublin and Western Dublin (Schaefer Ranch). Project Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 12a. through 12c. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. Since the project involves the rezoning and construction of commercial property, the proposed project will not impact housing or population within the City or the Tri-Valley region. The project will result in increases in employment oppommities, but on a minor scale. As a resuk, the project will not induce substantial population growth in the area or displace existing housing or people. 13. Public Services Environmental Setting: The.project site is served by the following service providers: · Fire Protection. Fire protection is provided by the Alameda County Fire Department which provides structural fire suppression, rescue, hazardous materials contrOl and public education services. Police Protection. Police protection is provided by the Dublin Police Department which is headquartered in the 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. 2~ · Schools. Educational facilities are provided by the Dublin Unified School District which operates kindergarten through high school services within the community. · Maintenance. The City of Dublin provides public facility maintenance, including roads, parks, street trees and other public facilities. Dublin's Civic Center is located at 100 Civic Plaza. Other Governmental Services. Other governmental services are provided by the City of Dublin including community development and building services and related governmental services. Library service is provided by the Alameda County Library with supplemental funding by the City of Dublin. P. ro{ect Impacts: There are no impacts to Item 13a. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study Fire Protection. According to representatives of the Alameda County Fire Department, the proposed project lies within a one-mile radius of a fire station located on Donahue Drive in Dublin. A typical response time of less than 5 minutes is anticipated. As part of the Site Development Review process, specific fire protection requirements will be imposed on the development to ensure compliance with applicable provisions of the Uniform Fire Code. Police Protection. According to representatives of the Police Department, adequate resources presently - exist to serve the proposed development. Schools. This project is for office uses. SchoOl fees in accordance to State law would be charged at building permit issuance. Maintenance of public facilities including roads. The Project has access from two existing streets, Dublin Boulevard and Regional Street. Additionally, a new roadway' 'St. Patrick's Way' is planned south of Dublin Boulevard (see Transportation/Traffic section). The project applicants will be contributing a traffic improvement fund, which will assist in offsetting costs of public roadway maintenance. This fund will be collected at building permit issuance. Other governmental services. The City of Dublin charges a public facilities fee for all new development in the community for the purpose of financing new municipal public facilities needed by such development. The applicants will be required to pay a public facilities fee prior to issuance of' building permits. 13. Recreation Environmental Setting: The project is located within Dublin's downtown area. The project proposes the development of new office uses and is surrounded by commercial development. 27 Project Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 14a through 14b. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study The City has in place a Public Facilities Fee which is charged to all developments in the City. The fee pays for improvements to and the provision of park facilities as Well as other public facilities in the City. 15. Transportation/Traffic Environmental Setting: The project is located on the southeast quadrant of the intersection of Dublin Boulevard and San Ramon Road. MajOr regional access.to the site is provided by 1-580 an east-west freeway directly to the south and 1-680 a north-south freeway, located approximately .5 miles to the east. Local access to the site is provided by San Ramon Road, a major north-south six-lane arterial street that lies immediately west of the site and Dublin Boulevard, a major east-west six-lane arterial located immediately north of the site. The project will have its primary access off of Dublin Boulevard via a two- lane 40' wide access driveway and off of Regional Street via a two-lane 40' wide access driveway. Regional Street is a two-lane north-south roadway providing connection to Dublin Boulevard east of the site. Planned circulation improvements in the area include new 1-680 southbound on/off ramps which are currently under construction. A new roadway 'St. Patrick's Way' parallel and south of Dublin Boulevard has been approved and partly constructed. This roadway will be a continuation of the 1-680 offramp and would travel west intersecting Amador Plaza Road, Golden Gate Drive and eventually ending at Regional Street. The section of roadway between Amador Plaza Roadand Golden Gate Drive has been completed. It is not know at this time when the roadway will be completed to Regional Street. Table 1 summarizes existing traffic conditions at key intersections near the proposed project site. This information is based on a Traffic Study prepared to analyze potential traffic and parking impacts associated with the project completed by Omni Means, dated August 1999. Table 1.: Existing Intersection Level-of Service (without project) [ Existing Intersection Control V/C I LOS Amador Valley Blvd./San Ramon Road Signal A.M .48 I A P.M. .67 I B San Ramon RoacVDublin Blvd. Signal A.M. .70 B P.M. .72 C Re~onal Street/Dublin Blvd. Signal A.M. .46 A P.M. .45 A 28 Existing conditions are expressed in terms of volume of capacity on adjacent roadways using the Level .... of-Service concept. LOS ratings are qualitative descriptions of intersection operations reported using an A through F ranking system to describe travel demand, delays and congestion. LOS A represents free- flow conditions with little or no delay at signalized intersections and LOS F indicates jammed conditions with excessive delay and long back-ups. The Dublin General Plan identifies LOS D (volume to capacity ratio of.90) as the minimum acceptable level-of-service in the community. Table 1 indicates that all intersections are functioning at LOS C or better during a.m. and p.m. peak hours. Protect Impacts: There are no impacts to Items 15a through 15g. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. The project would add additional vehicles to local and regional roadways. Table 2 summarizes furore traffic conditions of all three intersections including the proposed project and other approved projects in the area (Schaefer Ranch, residential development, Hansen Hill, residential project, Dublin Chrysler and Rite Aid/Kinder care, commercial projects, refer to Traffic Study for more details). Table 2.: Existing and Proposed Intersection Level-of Service (with project) 1 Existing & Proposed Intersection Control V/C LOS Amador Valley Blvd./San Ramon Road Signal A.M .53 A ........... '- P.M.

The intersection of San Ramon Road and Dublin Blvd will change from LOS'B' to LOS 'C' during a~m. peak hours. The Regional Street and Dublin Blvd intersection will remain unchanged from existing conditions. Based on the above analysis, the construction of this proposed office project wo.uld not result in significant traffic impacts at major intersections near the project site. However, the proposed project will generate additional vehicular trips in the area which will impact city roadways. The applicant will be contributing traffic funds as part of their project. These funds will assist in offsetting costs ofpublic roadway maintenance and planned roadway improvements, thereby reducing impacts to no impact. The traffic study prepared by Omni-Means analyzed the Corrie Center office project in relation to cumulative traffic volumes identified in the Tri-Valley 2010 Model Update. It was determined that the ' _'~_:.:: project would not be eXpected to increase volumes beyond acceptable levels. Refer to Traffic Study for additional analysis. The Site Development Review process has determined that the project site has adequate parking and access. The majority of the site's parking would be located along the site's western and southern frontages. In addition to surface parking spaces, a below and above level parking structure would be built underneath the new office building and on its southern flank. Conditional Use Permit approval is required to allow a portion of the required parking (approximately 17 parking spaces) to be located "off- site" along the major north-south access easement to the east of the proposed building on the adjacent parcel. The project would not conflict with adopted policies supporting altemative transportation. The project will provide direct access to the public sidewalk on San Ramon Road and would be within walking distance to the furore West Dublin BART Station. Bike racks will be required as standard conditions of approval. Due to the design and location of the project, it would not result in a change in air traffic patterns, would not increase hazards due to a design feature and would not result in inadequate emergency access. 16. Utilities and Service Systems Environmental Setting: The project site is serviced by the following service providers: · Electrical and natural gas power: Pacific, Gas and Electric · Communications: Pacific Bell · Water supply and sewage treatment: Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD) · Storm Drainage: Alameda County Flood Control District, Zone 7 (Zone 7) · Solid Waste Disposal: Dublin-Livermore Disposal Company Project Impacts: There are no impacts associated with Items 16a through 16g. This determination is based on the sources referenced in the Initial Study. Utility providers have reviewed the project and have determined that either the infrastructure exists or a method to fund the infrastructure has been provided for. DSRSD and Zone 7 will charge standard impact fees. 3O
