Lockhart puJIed Item 4.4 from the Consent Calendar 811d asked about the service received this year in regard to the Crossing Guards. Have there been compliments or complaints? Is there a need to ch811ge locations? Should additional locations be considered to accommodate Dublin Elementary School? She questioned the difference in the rate from last year 811d this year. Assistant to the City M811ager Lou Ann Texeira indicated that the City had received quality service from All City M811agement Services, Inc.. 1JJ.ere had been only minimal problems. Two citizens had called about crossing guards not being a.t a certain place on a given day 811d the supervisor had resolved the problem immediately. 1JJ.e City has not received any requests in regard to additiol}allocations for crossing guards. em. Lockhart asked about coverage for Dublin Elementary School which would be opening in the fall. Assistant City Manager responded that there aJrea.dy was a crossing guard at San R8mon Road and Shannon A venue which is where students could cross. Mayor Houston felt there should be dialog with the Dublin Unified School District in regard to the need for crossing guards. Responding to the change in rates, Ms. Texeira explained that lY 1997-98 rates will be the Sl1111e as lY 1996-97. The City has received a discount from the original contract price because Dublin was sharing a supervisor with another City and the cost savings had been passed on to us. On motion of em. Lockhart, seconded by Cm. Burton, and by unanimous vote (em. Barnes absent), the Council (4.4 600-30) did not approve the resolution authorizing an amendment to the agreement with All City Management Services, Inc. at this time but directed Staff to contact the School District to discuss the issue of whether or not we had enough crossing guards scheduled and to bring this item back.

An annual review of Development Agreements is required by State Law and City Municipal Code. The development provided for by the Agreement has not yet commenced. All items required by the Agreement will be implemented when development occurs. Mayor Houston opened the public hearing. No testimony was entered by any member of the public relative to this issue. Mayor Houston closed the public hearing. On motion of Cm. Burton, seconded by Cm. Lockhart, and by unanimous vote ( Cm.

Staff Report was presented by Community Development Director Eddie Peabody and - ' . ., Associate Planner Tasha Huston. Mr. Peabody indicated that the proposed Conditional Use Permit would allow a minor modification to the approved Dublin Ranch Planned Development (PD) Rezone, Land Use and Development Plan and Site Plan to include a 10-acre Elementary School and approximately 2 acres of open space buffer within the Dublin Ranch Phase I development. Dublin Ranch is located within the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan and encompasses a total of 1,227 acres. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on May 13, 1997 and expressed concerns about the proposed school site relocation, mainly regarding traffic, parking, and maintenance of the school site prior to school construction. The Planning Commission voted 4-1 not to approve the proposed Conditional Use Permit for the school site relocation. The applicant filed an appeal of this decision with the City Clerk on May 14, 1997. .:. " -. ~ Ms. Huston presented several overhead maps of the proposed relocation of the school site. She indicated that the location being further from the major roadway is expected to improve the safety of school children by decreasing the likelihood of pedestrian and vehicular conflicts including unsafe left turn movements.

MINUTES VOLUME 16 REGULAR MEETING June 3, 1997 PAGE 232 Dublin and Livermore School Districts have been involved in the discussions of potential school sites and have agreed that the site next to the park, further away from Fallon Road, is t~e preferred location. In the n~w location, the s~hool can be designed to address _<- vehIcular movements and unloadmg at the school sIte. ,.;' The school site relocation is preferred because it will achieve three additional criteria used by the School District in evaluating school sites, which are: 1) the school will be centrally located to minimize student travel distance; 2) the school will be next to a neighborhood park to enable shared use of facilities; and 3) the school will be in excess of 200 feet from Fallon Road, the required distance for clear driver visibility and safe vehicular and bus movements. The proposed school site relocation actually promotes the following Specific Plan policies: 1) locating elementary schools away from major arterials and, wherever possible, adjacent to an open space corridor; 2) encouraging accessibility to major activity centers from residential areas; and 3) reserving school sites and promoting a consolidated development pattern. The relocation of the school site is considered a "minor modification" of the Land Use and Development Plan because it does not materially change the provisions of the approved Plan and is consistent with the Dublin General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. Mayor Houston opened the public hearing. Cm. Burton indicated a concern about the houses facing the school and asked if there were two lots back to back. He asked if it was possible to have on site unloading. Ms. Huston responded it could be handled that way with on -site unloading. .j: Ow + .~. . Martin Interbitizen, representative for Dublin Ranch, indicated the applicant's c~plete support of the new location. He stated that the Planning Department, the Dublin Unified School District, and the owner worked together and an agreement had been reached last week between the Dublin Unified School District and the Livermore School District in transferring the property from the Livermore School District to the Dublin Unified School District. He felt this was a partnership between the City, DUSD, and the owners. He reiterated that this was a land use adjustment and not a site planning exercise. It was a straight forward exchange of lot location. The details of the site plan would occur in the future. It would be an improvement of traffic circulation for the pedestrian, as well as the car traffic. Jeanne Howland, Dublin Unified School District, stated that the proposed prototype school site plan should be approved tomorrow by the School Board of Directors. There will be off-street parking and drop off lanes. This plan was better for the safety of the **********.***.*.**.*.*************....*.....********************.*.***.****.*.*********.*...********_:: CITY COUNCll.

Parking and a field will be put in to enhance the area until the school can be constructed. Cm. Burton asked about day care and if the School District was going into day care? Ms. Howland responded that day care was already available at all the schools in Dublin. Cm. Lockhart expressed her appreciation to the Planning Commission for their role as devil's advocate. She felt the Staff had also done a good job in answering their questions. Mayor Houston closed the public hearing. On motion of Cm. Lockhart, seconded by Cm. Howard, and by unanimous vote (Cm. Barnes absent), the Council approved RESOLUTION NO. 67 - 97 ADOpnNG A NEGAnVE DEClARAnON AND APPROVING PA 97-004 DUBUN RANCH PHASE I CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A MINOR MODIACATlON TO mE APPROVED DUBUN RANCH PlANNED DEVELOPMENT TO RELOCATE mE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SITE + Mayor Houston directed Public Works Director Lee Thompson to present the Staff Reports for Items 6.3, 6.4, and 6.5 together.

PUBLIC HEARING - CITYWIDE STREET LIGHTING MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT DISTRICT 83-1 7:45 p.m. 6.3 (360-50) Mr. Thompson stated that for Fiscal Year 1997-98, the Citywide Street Lighting Maintenance Assessment District 83-1 for a single-family house was estimated to be $13.26 and the assessment for a commercial property is $72.93 multiplied by the acreage of the property.

DUBLIN BOULEVARD/HANSEN DRIVE TRAmC ISSUES 7:50 p.m. 7.1 (590-40) staff Report was presented by Public Works Director Lee Thompson. At its City Council meeting of May 20, 1997, the Council directed Staff to include the traffic signal as a capital improvement project for review in the upcoming Five-Year Capital Improvement Program and return to the Council on June 3rd with a proposed design and impacts of installing an all-way stop at this intersection; trim or remove shrubbery at the northwest corner to improve visibility; install additional right-turn arrows for the westbound to northbound direction, and provide a recommendation regarding installation of rumble ***************************************************************************************************** CITY COUNCll.. MINUTES VOLUME 16 REGULAR MEETING June 3, 1997 PAGE 236 strips on Dublin Boulevard approaching the intersection from the west to slow traffic in advance of the stop sign. Christopher Kinzel, (the young one) of 1JKM, reviewed the impacts of installing an all- .i way stop at this location. 1) The side traffic on Hansen Drive would be able to enter Dublin Boulevard without long delays. 2) The need for removal of parking on Dublin Boulevard due to sight distance restriction would be reduced. 3) This intersection would become a five-way stop due to the two driveways on the south side of the intersection (DeSilva-Gates & Hexel), which could complicate the assignment of right-of-way. 4) It is expected that there will be an increase in rear-end accidents on Dublin Boulevard especially on the eastbound (downhill) direction. 5) It is anticipated that at the two peak traffic periods for Valley Christian School, traffic will back up to Donlon Way on the east and Silvergate Drive to the west. The installation of rumble strips was not recommended because they could create a considerable amount of noise which would disturb residents along the north side of Dublin Boulevard between Silvergate Drive and Hansen Drive. In the past, rumble strips that have been installed have ultimately been removed because of noise complaints. Staff and 1JKM had a real concern about an all-way stop sign at this location and recommended that the installation of a traffic signal be pursued, increased visibility of site be done, and a stop sign not be installed. Cm. Burton felt if the signal was installed, a lot of money would be spent to put in the signals which would need to be changed later with the road widening. Mr. Kinzel indicated the signals could be designed to accommodate as much as possible .' the future plans. em. Burton stated that there had not been problems with the stop signs at Silvergate. He asked about the timefrarne for installing the signal. Mr. Thompson responded 7 to 8 months would be required to have in it in place._- It takes two months to design, six weeks to go to bid and award, and three one-half to four months to build it. The City has the funding for the signals, but it does not have the funding for the widening. Cm. Lockhart asked about the timeline for the widening. Mr. Thompson indicated it would be contingent upon the timing for Schaefer Ranch to come in as they will become the next major contributor. Cm. Burton suggested extending Hansen Drive out to the stop sign so there would be better visibility up hill, but he realized that the crosswalk would be a problem. *****************************************************************************************************'~ CI1Y COUNcn. MINUTES VOLUME 16 REGULAR MEETING June 3,1997 PAGE 237 .,- .: I.. ~ ",':.. :-.'". . Mr. Kinzel indicated the crosswalk was already sticking out pass the handicap ramp so that if the stop sign was extended much further out, the pedestrian would have to walk behind the car. Cm. Lockhart stated she was in favor of the stop light. She felt school traffic would not be an issue during the summer. She hadn't realized it would take seven to eight months to install the signal. She was concerned about putting in the stop signs. Mayor Houston stated that Mary Wallin had been sideswiped. recently and her car had been totaled. He felt it was dangerous and he wanted to slow everything down. He did not believe the Council could wait seven months. Cm. Howard wanted to make certain that additional arrows were painted on Dublin Boulevard further down to notify drivers of the right turn lane onto Hansen Drive. Mayor Houston asked how long it would take to install the arrows. Mr. Thompson responded two weeks. Cm. Lockhart requested that the Police provide closer enforcement of the area. On motion of Mayor Houston, seconded by Cm. Lockhart, and by unanimous vote (Cm. Barnes absent), the Council adopted RESOLUTION NO. 71 .. 97 APPROVAL OF STOP SIGNS ON DUBUN BOULEVARD AT mE INlERSEC1l0N OF HANSEN DRIVE directed Staff to not eliminate the parking on Dublin Boulevard, to paint additional arrows designating the right turn onto Hansen Drive from Dublin Boulevard, and to immediately begin design on a traffic signal at this intersection. + PUBLIC HEARING - ORDINANCE REVISING THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT REGULATIONS 8:13 p.m. 6.6 (450-20) Staff Report was presented by Community Development Director Eddie Peabody. He indicated that this was the second reading of the proposed Ordinance revising the Planned Development District Regulations to allow a staged process where a general "Stage 1 Development Plan" is applied to the entire project and specific "Stage Z Development Plans" are applied to portions of the project when development is about to ***************************************************************************************************** CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 16 REGULAR MEETING June 3, 1997 PAGE 238 occur. A minimum 4 acre site would be required for a Planned Development. The Community Development Director, as well as the Planning Commission, would be able to approve minor amendz:nents to a. Devel,?pment Plan. The Ordinance had been introduc~~:, at the May 20, 1997 CIty CouncIl meetmg. ..,- Mayor Houston opened the public hearing. Cm. Lockhart asked for a clarification on appeals which appeared on page 3 of the Ordinance. What if the Community Development Director and the Planning Commission did not agree? Mr. Peabody indicated that if it was minor changes, the Community Development Director would make the decision. But all decisions are always appealable and could come to the Council if there was a conflict. George Zika, 8046 Peppertree, had one concern. He asked about the definition of "minor amendments." He explained that when he had been a member of the Planning Commission, there had been a problem in regard to a daycare facility. The question had arisen on whether two cars should be parked in the garage and not allow the garage to be used as part of the daycare facility. The property owner was subsequently allowed to convert the garage under "minor amendments" which was totally against what the Planning Commission had directed. Mr. Peabody read Section 8-31.8: "Amendments. The Director of Community ... Development by administrative action and or the Planning Commission by means of a Conditional use Pennit may approve minor amendments to an adopted Development Plan upon a finding that the minor amendment substantially complies with and does not materially change the provisions or intent of the adopted Planned Development Zoning District Ordinance for the site. " Mayor Houston requested Mr. Peabody give an example of a minor amendment. Mr. Peabody indicated that in a Planned Development Zone, the site plan configuration of a road might need to be moved slightly. Staff could make the adjustment as long as it did not change the circulation. He also indicated that a review of the public record would be conducted in order to comply with the original intent of any conditions. Mayor Houston closed the public hearing. On motion of Cm. Lockhart, seconded by Cm. Howard, and by unanimous vote (Cm. Barnes absent), the Council waived the reading and adopted **************.***********************...***...****.*****...*****************.**.**.**.**....********~, CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 16 ' REGULAR MEETING June 3t 1997 PAGE 239 . .," ~...

On May 20, 1997, the City Council introduced the revised Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance and approved a Resolution for determining the amount of the In-Lieu Fee. 'I11e proposed amendments to the Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance address the timing of payment of in- lieu fees, the means of their calculation, and the amount of funds realized.

This is the second reading of a proposed ordinance that was introduced at the May 20, 1997 City Council meeting. At that meeting, Cm. Burton indicated that LA VTA Staff had not advised its Board of the proposed new bus stops prior to requesting that the City adopt the ***************************************************************************************************** CITY COUNCR.l\DN1JTES VOLUME 16 REGULAR :MEETING June 3, 1997 PAGE 240 Ordinance. He also wanted to know the reason for these specific locations. LA VT A Staff informed City Staff that generally the bus routing, fares, and service design were presented.to the LAVTA Board for review and approval, but these specific propose? bus .'_: stop locatIons had not been presented to the Board. The stop on San Ramon Road IS the ' '.' :' formalization of a stop currently being used by bus drivers as a restroom stop at the Chevron Station. The two stops proposed for Regional Street are replacements for those which were eliminated on Dublin Boulevard at Golden Gate Drive. He indicated that there was a member from the LA vrA Staff in the audience if the Council had any questions. -. Mayor Houston opened the public hearing. No testimony was entered by any member of the public relative to this issue. Mayor Houston closed the public hearing. Cm.

The current General Plan designation on this site is "Medium Density Residential," which permits 6.1 to 14.0 dwelling units per acre and allows duplexes, townhouses, and garden apartment developments. The applicant has requested a General Plan Amendment study to change to "Medium High Density Residential" which would permit 14.1 to 25.0 dwelling units per acre. Cm. Burton asked. if all the hearings would be waived or would the applicant have to go through the whole process again. .....................................................................................................~ CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 16 REGULAR MEETING June 3, 1997 PAGE 241 Mr. Peabody explained that the entire process will need to be conducted including hearings.
