COPIES TO: City Attorney . Applicant H1cc-forms/agdastmt.doc ITEM NO. 6.' PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Starward Drive development project involves 31 detached single-family units on approximately 2.4 . acres of land, generally located east of San Ramon Road, west of Starward Drive and north of the Shamrock Village shopping center. The application includes a Planned Development (PD) Rezone / Development Plan, General Plan Amendment, an Amendment to the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan, Vesting Tentative Map and Site Development Review. BACKGROUND Site History: The DeSilva Group has requested approval to develop a 31-unit single family infill project north of Downtown. The site is presently vacant and has been planned for commercial or office development for a number of years. The site is located within the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan, adopted in 1987. The site contained one single family residence and associated outbuildings, which were demolished several years ago. Planning Commission Meeting: The Planning Commission, at their meeting of August 11, 1998, adopted a resolution recommending approval of the General Plan Amendment, an Amendment to the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan and Planned Development Rezone and adopted a resolution approving the Vesting Tentative Map and Site Development Review. The Planning Commission's approval of the Vesting Tentative Map and Site Development Review will not be effective until the City Council approves the General Plan Amendment, the Amendment to the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan, the Planned Development Rezone and related CEQA documents. . At the Planning Commission meeting no member of the public spoke regarding the project. A community meeting was held on Wednesday, August 5, 1998, at 7964 Gunshot Court. Approximately twenty neighbors attended. The Applicant and City Staff gave a brief presentation which was followed by an informal question and answer session. Refer to Attachment 6 for a summary of the meeting and resident concerns. GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT The applicant has requested approval of a General Plan Amendment to change the General Plan Land Use Map designation from "RetaiVOffice" to "Medium Density Residential", which permits residential densities between the range of 6.1 to 14 dwellings per gross acre. The Medium Density Residential land use category allows for single-family, duplex, townhouse and garden apartment land uses. Unit types may be the same or varied. Proposed density for the Starward Drive project would be 12.9 units per acre, which would fall within this density range. Refer to Attachment 4 for a detailed discussion of General Plan policies applicable to the proposed project. Landuse to the south of the project site is designated "Retail Commercial" and is developed with the Shamrock Village shopping center. The property to the north beyond the Flood Control Channel is designated and utilized for single family residential development. The property easterly across Starward Drive is designated "Commercial Office" and is partially developed with an office building with the remainder vacant. Beyond this property, the existing land use designation is "Multi-Family Residential". . To the west San Ramon Road has been constructed. 2 ,,,,.. The logical transitioning of land uses from commercial to single family residential is a tiering from higher . density uses adjacent to commercial uses to medium density adjacent to single fan1ily residential uses. The project site, if developed for commercial office development would require access to be taken from Starward Drive. This would mean that vehicular traffic would drive past the existing apartment site on the north side ofStarward Drive. A commercial development on the site would allow a building of up to 35 feet in height to be built within 10 feet from any interior property line and 20 feet from the front property line. Generally, a commercial development would appear to be inconsistent with the adjacent de,;,elopments that already exist. The proposed project creates a unique transitional development and would serve to buffer the existing single-family homes from commercial uses to the south. DOWNTOWN DUBLIN SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMENT An amendment to the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan is required to delete the project site from the Specific Plan area. The Downtown Dublin Specific Plan was adopted to enhance the commercial component of the downtown area and indicates that future development on the project site should be office or commercial. Since the applicant has requested a land use change to medium density residential, the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan would no longer be applicable to the site. The staff notes that medium density residential development is proposed on the site which would have a positive economic effect on downtown by increasing the number of potential shoppers and users of services within the downtown area. Given the proximity of the site to downtown, increased pedestrian . activity to shops and restaurants could also be expected. PLANNED DEVELOPMENT REZONING A rezoning of the site would be necessary to bring site zoning into consistency with the proposed General Plan Amendment as required by State law. A Zone Change from "C-O (Commercial Office)" to "Planned Development" has therefore been requested. Chapter 8.32 of the Dublin Zoning Ordinance establishes the intent, purpose, and requirements ofa Planned Development District. The intent of the Planned Development Zonirig District is to create a more desirable use of land, a more coherent and coordinated development, and a better physical environment than would otherwise be possible under a single zoning district or combination of zoning districts. The Zoning Ordinance requires that a Development Plan shall be adopted to establish regulations for the use, development, improvement, and maintenance of the property within the requested Planned Development Zoning District. The proposed zoning for the site is "Planned Development / R-I (Single-Family, Medium Density Residential)". This zoning category is consistent with the purpose, intent and requirements of the City's Zoning Ordinance. The applicant is proposing a single family detached product of approximately 12.9 dwelling units to the acre which is consistent with the Dublin General Plan designation of "Medium Density Residential". . To accomplish the land plan envisioned specific development standards are established in the Development Plan to guide the initial and future development of the property. Pursuant to Chapter 8.32 of the Dublin Zoning Ordinance the proposed Development Plan and development standards are attached as Exhibits B-1 and B-2, stamped by the City "Received August 3, 1998. 3 The Development Plan will in essence become the zoning for the site. Where the Development Plan is silent, the development of the site will rely upon the Zoning Ordinance that is currently in effect at the . time of the development or any future modifications to the site. Following is a brief description of several of the elements of the Development Plan: Site Plan: The proposed development consists of 31 single-family dwelling units, private ~ommon area landscaping including a tot lot and mini-park setting on 2.4 acres of land. A U-shaped private road provides pedestrian and vehicular access to the project from two intersections along the west side of Starward Drive. Each of the units would front onto the interior private street (except lots 30 and 31 which front Starward Drive) with both pedestrian and garage access to each unit coming from the adjacent street. Lots 9 through 16 back onto San Ramon Road and portions of lots 13 through 16 straddle a portion of City surplus land which the developer is currently purchasing from the City, and which is shown on the Vesting Tentative Map and Site Development Review plans (Refer to Exhibit B-2). The site plan has been designed with sensitivity to the adjacent residences on Gunshot Court. The minimum setback between the nearest residential unit on the project site and the nearest home on Gunshot Court would be 95 feet. Reciprocal Easements: The developer has proposed a reciprocal easement approach to the project. This design technique has been used for many years and provides significant usable exterior spaces in excess of those found in an attached product such as a townhouse or a condominium project. This development concept establishes property lines through the standard tentative tract map process and in locating each unit on a legally created lot a standard minimum side yard setback of 3 feet from the property line is maintained. However, each dwelling has an active and a passive side. The active side of the home orients interior spaces to a side or rear yard with the placement of windows and doors to take advantage of the yard areas created. The passive side of the home discourages openings such as windows and strives to create blank walls to preserve privacy. The reciprocal easement technique allows the property owner of one legal lot to "borrow" what would effectively be the unusable or passive side of the adjacent home for yard area. This provides the home with additional borrowed land area (totaling 6 feet) to utilize as exterior yard space. The property owner whose passive yard is being used retains an easement for painting and drainage yet they cannot use the land for outdoor living space. Each unit within the development would be borrowing from the adjacent property. Property line fences extend from the end of the passive side of the home to the rear yard fence and perpendicular side yard fences between the two homes are placed behind the entry so that the active home takes advantages of the common landscaping and entry treatment of the entire 6 foot area both in the front and side garden. Architecture Three distinct two story floor plans proposed ranging in size from approximately 1,361 square feet to 1,721 square per unit, encompassing three or four bedrooms and up to 2 1/2 baths. There are four different elevation types per floor plan and several custom elevations and floor plans to address unique site conditions. 4 . . Floor Plans: Plan One encompasses 1,361 square feet on two floors. The ground floor includes a "great . room" (combined living room/dining room), kitchen, laundry and powder room (1/2 bath). The second floor has three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Plan Two is similarly configured to the Plan One with the addition of a fourth bedroom on the second floor. Plan Two includes 1, 598 square feet. The largest plan, Plan Three, includes 1,721 square feet with an optional retreat or fourth bedroom on the second floor. The first floor is similar to the first floor on Plans One and Two. Elevations: There are four separate elevation styles for each of the three floor plans. The primary building elements are stucco with window trim and horizontal elements including, brick veneer, shutters, vents, and decorative elements. . The active side of the home carries the trim elements along the entire entrance way to the perpendicular side yard fencing. The architectural features are also "returned" to the perpendicular side yard fence on the passive side of the unit. Custom elevations have been created for the units which side on to Starward Drive and for corner lots, and lot 24. The Applicant is proposing color combinations which will further serve to differentiate the units. Staffhas worked extensively with the Applicant to upgrade the building elevations. Roof Elements: Roof Elements include combinations of hip and gable techniques with one elevation style incorporating a modified "dutch hip" to create visual interest. Roof materials are proposed to be heavy composition shingles which are an upgrade of the roof materials presented on the existing residences to the north . Parking Each single-family residential unit on site has been designed with a two car enclosed garage. To accommodate guest parking, 18 separate individual guest parking spaces have been provided at several parking pockets throughout the project. Five of the units have driveways deep enough to allow one or two guest vehicles to park in the driveway. Assuming that only one guest would park in the driveway, a total of 23 guest parking stalls are available on-site. The Starward Drive frontage can be utilized for an additional 11 guest cars to park. The total available guest parking spaces would, therefore be 34, which is greater than a 1: 1 ratio of guest parking to residential unit. The proposed parking for the Starward proj ect is consistent with the City of Dublin Zoning Ordinance. Landscaping and Fencing Plan Common area landscaping is provided on the lettered lots A through D with Lot A including a tot lot and mini-park setting. All front yard and perimeter landscaping including that along Starward Drive will be installed by the developer and maintained by a Homeowner's Association. Heavy landscaping including dense site and street tree plantings are proposed along Starward Drive. The site yards of lots 1, 3 and 29 which face StaIV/ard Drive area also heavily embellished. The unique elevations proposed for these lots combined with the heavy landscaping will present an overall appearance of an upgraded residential project. Common areas throughout the project will be landscaped similarly to the Starward Drive frontage. 1\reas . of embellished decorative pavement as provided at both driveway entrances at Starward Drive. A large area of embellished decorative pavement is proposed at the tot lot 1 guest parking area adjacent to lot 17. 5 Exterior project fencing on the north, west and south boundaries will match the existing masonry wall along San Ramon Road. The height of the wall on the north and west boundaries will be six feet and the wall height along the south elevation will be seven feet. The interior side yard fencing well be standard 6 . feet good neighbor wood fencing. PARKLAND DEDICATION The Applicant shall be required to pay the Public Facilities Fee and an "in-lieu" fee for neighborhood parks in accordance with Condition No. 78 of the Vesting Tentative Tract Map approval, (refer to Attachment 5). The project includes a private tot lot.and mini-park setting, however, the Applicant will not be eligible for a credit against the Public Facility Fee or the "in-lieu" fee for neighborhood parks for_ the provision of this amenity. El'trvIRONMENT AL ANALYSIS A Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared for the project, which focuses on land use compatibility, population and housing, geoteclmical, water and hydrology, air quality, transportation and circulation, noise, public services and utilities, aesthetics, cultural resources and recreational facilities, in addition to all other items normally addressed in a Negative Declaration. A number of measures have been included within the document to ensure that identified environmental impacts can be mitigated to levels of insignificance. A copy of the Initial Study, on which the Mitigated Negative Declaration is based, is included as Attachment 2. Attachment 3 contains the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the proj ect. CONCLUSION The proposed project creates a unique transitional development which will augment the existing single- . family development while providing a buffer to the commercial uses. The development pattern proposed will represent a single-family type of development in keeping with the adjacent residential community. The proposed project will blend well with its surroundings. Staff recommends the City Council adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration, Mitigation Monitoring Program, and approve the General PI~ Amendment, an Amendment to the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan and introduce the Ordinance adopting the Planned Development Rezoning and Development Plan, (with the Development Plan included as Exhibit B-1 and B-2).

Environmental Checklist! Initial Study Project Location and Characteristics The project site is located between Starward Drive and San Ramon Road, north of Amador Valley Boulevard. The site contains approximately 2.4 acres of land which is owned by the DeSilva Group. The Assessors Parcel Number (APN) for the site is 941-0173-005-02. Surrounding land uses include an Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District Zone 7 flood control channel immediately north of the site. North of the flood control channel single family homes have been constructed. West of the site, San Ramon Road has been built, with the roadbed elevated approximately seven (7) feet from the project site. A multi- family housing complex exists west of San Ramon Road. East of the site lies a single story professional office building and a vacant parcel of land. A major retail commercial shopping center (Shamrock Center) has been built south of the project site. Exhibit 1 depicts the project location. The site is presently flat, having been graded prior to this application being filed. Trees have been planted along the southerly property line of the site with a small number of other trees . scattered throughout the perimeter of the site. The site has a major expanse of frontage along Starward Drive and roadway improvements have already been installed adjacent to Starward Drive, including curb, gutter, sidewalk and street lighting. Existing site elevations are approximately 362 feet above sea level, although the site does have a slight but distinct slope toward Starward Drive, which has an elevation of approximately 359 feet above sea level adjacent to the project site. Exhibit 2 depicts existing site conditions. Project Description The project involves a proposal to amend the City's General Plan, to amend the Downtown Specific Plan and rezone the project site to allow the development of single family homes on the site, along with associated improvements typical of a residential development. Exhibit 3 depicts the proposed General Plan Amendment and Rezoning. Exhibit 4 shows the proposed Amendment to the Downtown Specific Plan. The project would consist of thirty-one (31) residential lots and five (5) lettered lots on the site. A detached single family home would be constructed on each of the lots. Lettered lots "A" through "F" would be devoted to permanent landscaping within and adjacent to the subdivision and Lot "E" would be reserved for a private road providing vehicular and pedestrian access into the project site The road would be 24 feet in width. Exhibit 5 depicts the proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map which would subdivide the site, if approved by the City of Dublin. . Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 2 July 1998 .... -. . /s~. /33 I) The private road would be constructed in a "U" shaped configuration, with two intersections along the west side of Starward Drive, as indicated on the Vesting Tentative Map. Residential lots and associated driveways would then front on the interior private road. Lots sizes are proposed to be varied, ranging in size from 2100 square feet to 3400 square feet each. Exhibit 6 shows a conceptual site plan for the project. Dwellings proposed for the site would consist of two-story dwellings, each with an attached two car garage. Preliminarily, houses would range in size from 1350 square feet to 1663 square feet. Anticipated sales prices would be in the range of $275,000 to $325,000. The proposed project would include grading of the 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 required nor would material need to be exported from the site. The proposed project would also involve construction of related 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 as well as the front yards of each dwelling. A landscaped tot lot would be provided on Lot A for use by residents. Landscaping would be maintained by a Homeowners Association. Exhibit 7 depicts the conceptual landscape plan for the project. The project developer anticipates that the entire project would be built in a single phase of development, with the homes ready for occupancy by Fall, 1999. To allow the construction of the proposed project, the applicant has requested the following approvals from the City of Dublin: A General Plan Amendment to change the General Plan Land Use Map designation from "Retail/Office" to "Medium Density Residential (6.1-14.0 dwellings per acre);" An Amendment to the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan to delete the project site from the Specific Plan area; A Zone Change from "C-O (Commercial Office)" to "Planned Development (Medium Density Residential);" . A PD-Planned Development overlay on the site (confirm); Site Development Review (SDR) for 31 single family residences; A Vesting Tentative Tract Map to create 31 lots and six lettered lots. If the approvals described above are granted, the applicants would then apply for encroachment, grading and building permits from the City of Dublin, necessary utility connection permits from the Dublin San Ramon Services District and encroachment pennits from Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District 7. . . . . . . Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive ProjecVlnitial Study PA 98-013 Page 3 July 1998 )b rf /j~ The project would also involve a transfer of real property between the City of Dublin and the . property owner. The City presently owns a small parcel of land approximately 0.03 acre) located on the west side of the site, adjacent to San Ramon Road. The site is identified on Exhibit 8. This site was dedicated to the City as a slope easement. It is the intent of the City to declare this site as surplus and transfer ownership to the DeSilva Group. This transfer would occur prior to or simultaneously with the consideration of the Vesting Tentative Tract Map. The Starward project has been designed with a retaining wall along a portion of the westerly property line to eliminate the need for the slope easement. . .

For: Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive ProjecVlnitial Study PA 98-013 Page 15 July 1998 ~~gD Evaluation of Environmental Impacts . 1) 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 parenthesis 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 factors (e.g. the project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific screening analysis). 2) All answers must take account of the whole action, 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. 3) "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significant. If there are one or more "potentially significant impact" entries when the determination is made, an EIR is required. 4) "Negative Declaration: Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated" implies elsewhere the incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "potentially significant effect" 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. 5) Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA processes, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration. Section 15063 (c) (3) (D). Earlier analyses are discussed in Section 17 at the end of the checklist. 6) Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate the checklist references to information sources for potential impacts (e.g. general plans, zoning ordinances). References to a previously prepared or outside document should, where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the document in substantiated.

Land Use and Planning Environmental Setting Existing Land Use The project site consists of 2.4 acres of vacant land in the central portion of Dublin. The site is presently vacant and was previously occupied by a single family residence. Surrounding land uses include a County Flood Control District open channel and single family homes to the north, San Ramon Road and multi-family residences to the west., a shopping center (Shamrock Village) to the south and a single story office and vacant land to the east. As part of the project, the developer would construct a solid masonry wall along the north, west and southerly property lines. Although the primary purpose of the wall would be for noise attenuation, construction of the wall would also provide a land use buffer between the proposed project and surrounding uses. Regulatory Framework Land use and development of property is governed by the Dublin General Plan, adopted in 1985 and amended since the original adoption date. The General Plan land use classification for the project site is "Retail/Office", which is intended to promote commercial shopping centers, service stations, business and professional offices and similar uses. The Retail/Office land use designation typically does not pennit residential uses except in portions of the Downtown area. Surrounding General Plan land use classifications include "Low Density Single Family Residential" to the north, "Retail/Office" to the east and south and "Medium Density Residential" to the west. One of the primary methods of implementing the General Plan is through the City's Zoning Ordinance, which regulates land use, building height and setbacks, parking and other development standards in confonnity with the General Plan. The Dublin Zoning Map designates the project site as "C-O (Commercial Office)," consistent with the General Plan designation. The C-O district allows a range of retail commercial and office land uses, including but not limited to banks and fmancial services, blueprint shops and similar uses. Surrounding zoning designations include "R-I-B-E-Low Density Residential, Combining District" to the north of the project site; "Planned Development (Multi-family)" west of the site and "C-l, Retail Business District" south of the site and "Commercial Office" to the west. Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 23 July 1998 )b//3D The project site is also included within the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan, which was adopted . in 1987 for the purposes of enhancing the appearance and economical vitality of the downtown portion of the Dublin. As part of the proposed project, the applicant has requested a General Plan Amendment and rezoning to allow the type and density of residential uses proposed for the project. The applicant has also requested an amendment to the Downtown Specific Plan to exclude the project site from the boundary of the Specific Plan area. Details regarding the requested General Plan Amendment, rezoning and Specific Plan Amendment are contained in the ~oject Description of this Initial Study. Proiect Impacts a) Conflict with general plan designation and zoning? PS/M. The proposed project would not be consistent with the Dublin General Plan, Zoning Ordinance or Downtown Specific Plan as presently adopted. Although applications have been flied to amend the General Plan, amend the Downtown Specific Plan and rezone the site, such actions may only be approved by the Dublin City Council with recommendations on these actions made by the Planning Commission. Proposed density of the project would be 12.9 dwelling units per acre, which would be consistent with the Medium Density Residential General Plan land use category, which pennits residential units up to 14.0 dwellings per acre. Similarly, the proposed project is not consistent with the Commercial Office zoning on the site nor with the intent of the Downtown Specific Plan to construct office and/or retail commercial uses on the site. There is therefore a potentially significant impact with respect to consistency with the General Plan, Downtown Specific Plan and Zoning Map and the following mitigation is recommended to ensure consistency with the . City's General Plan, Downtown Specific Plan and zoning ordinance which would reduce this impact to a level of less than significance. Mitigation Measure 1: Prior to or concurrently with the approval of the proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map for the project, the City of Dublin shall have amended the General Plan to a Medium Density Residential designation, rezoned the project site to a Planned Development District and amended the Downtown Specific Plan to exclude the site from the Specific Plan area. b) Conflict with applicable environmental plans or policies? NI. This Initial Study represents full California Environmental Quality Act compliance with regard to the project. The City of Dublin has adopted no other city-wide or specific environmental plans or policies which would affect this application. c) Incompatibilities with existing land use in the vicinity? LS. The proposed residential subdivision would be consistent with existing development patterns in the area by extending the existing single family development pattern south to encompass the project site. Existing residences north of the project site would be separated from residences on the proposed project by a distance of approximately 115 feet In addition, the project developer proposed a solid barrier wall along the northerly property line to provide an additional buffer between the two properties. Although potential land use incompatibilities could be created between the proposed single family development and existing commercial development to the south, the proposed construction of a solid masonry wall along the southerly property line of the project would reduce land use impacts to a level of less than significance. No land use compatibility impacts . Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 . Page 24 July 1998 ,.. . . 39//30 are anticipated regarding the existing office building to the east, since the majority of dwellings within the proposed project would have side yards fronting onto Starward Drive. Since the developer has proposed construction of property line barrier walls as part of the project, no additional mitigation measures are proposed. If approved, the project would have the effect of increasing the resident population near the downtown area, which would assist in furthering objectives of the Downtown Plan. d) Effect on agricultural operations or soils? NI. The site has been vacant for a number of years an.d has been slated for commercial or office development. There is no recent history of agricultural production. No agricultural operations exist on surrounding properties. Therefore, no. impacts are foreseen and no mitigation measures are required. . e) Disruption of physical arrangement of an established community? NI. The project site is located adjacent to a major shopping center complex to the south, a high speed arterial roadway (San Ramon Road) to the west and a major flood control facility to the north. It would therefore not disrupt any existing established community and no impacts are anticipated. II. Population and Housing Environmental Settin~ The city population as of January 1, 1996 was estimated by the State Department of Finance to be 26,267. Significant population growth is anticipated for the community based on planned residential growth in east Dublin, where the City has approved a specific plan calling for residential growth. According to the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), the total population of Dublin is expected to increase to 35,200 by the year 2000, to 49,400 by the year 2005 and 58,900 in the year 2010. Proiect Impacts a) Cumulatively exceed official regional or local population projections? LS. The project site is relatively small in size, approximately 2.4 acres, and would not have an appreciable affect on the city-wide population base. Based on a person per dwelling unit factor of 3.2 (taken from the adopted Land Use Element), up to 99 new residents could be located on the site at project build out. The number of new residents generated by the proposed project would fall within the parameters of anticipated population growth as outlined in the Environmental Setting section, above. b) Induce substantial growth in an area, either directly or indirectly? NI. The project site is considered as an "infill" site and is surrounded by existing single and multi-family development and commercial development to the south. The site has been slated for office or commercial development for many years and will therefore not be considered a growth inducing project. No mitigation measures are required. Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 25 July 1998 3)1 /;3D c) Displacement of existing housing, especially affordable housing? NI. The project site is . presently vacant. and no housing units would be displaced. Therefore, no impacts would occur and no mitigation measures would be required. ill. Soils and Geology Environmental Setting [Note: the following information is based on a Geotechnical and Fault Investigation for the site prepared by Berlogar Geotechnical Consultants, July, 1997.) Overall geology 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. Folding and faulting of the hills within the region is attributed to the result of prehistoric tectonic forces causing major uplifts. Faulting The Coast Range geomorphic province is seismically dominated by the presence of the active San Andreas Fault system. The San Andreas Fault system is the general boundary between the northward moving Pacific tectonic plate and the southward moving tectonic plate. Within this portion of the Bay area, nearby known active faults include the San Andreas, Hayward and Calaveras faults. In the immediate vicinity of the project site, the Calaveras fault is located approximately 100 to 150 feet west of the project site. The Hayward and San Andreas faults lie approximately 8 and 26 miles, respectively, southwest of the site. . The western portion of the site is located within a State of California designated seismic "Special Studies Zone" for the Calaveras fault. Recent trenching on the site completed by the applicant's geotechnical consultant revealed that no traces of possible faulting adjacent to the trench. Soils Fill material has been previously deposited on the site. An analysis of the fill material indicates that the material is poorly to well compacted with significant amounts of wood, concrete and construction debris contained in the fIll. Native soils material include alluvium interbeded with sand, gravel, silt and clay layers. Dark brown clay layers were encountered by the geotechnical consultant at levels of 4 and 10 feet below surface levels. Moderately expansive soils were identified on portions of the site. Liquefaction potential Liquefaction is the temporary transformation of a saturated, cohesionless soil into a viscous liquid during strong ground shaking during a major earthquake. Sandy and silty soils encountered at the site were found to be either dense and stiff or clayey enough to preclude liquefaction. The geotechnical report rates the risk of liquefaction on the site as low. . Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Projectflnitial Study PA 98-013 Page 26 July 1998 I /?C? 1/1 '30 .// /' . Project Impacts a) Is the site subject to fault rupture? LS. Although portions of the site are located within a Special Studies zone for seismic hazard, no evidence of active faulting has been found on the site by the applicant's geotechnical engineer. The geotechnical report concludes that the risk of ground rupture from active fault appears low. Dwellings proposed for the site would be required to comply with seismic requirements established by the Uniform Building Code. Therefore, based on the geotechnical report, significant impacts are not anticipated and no mitigations are required. b) Is the site subject to ground shaking? PS/M. As is true of the majority of structures in the Bay area, dwellings constructed on the.project site would be subject to moderate to severe ground shaking during earthquakes. According to the geotechnical report, the structural integrity of the proposed buildings would be a primary factor in detennining possible seismic damage due to groundshaking. Groundshaking is a hazard which cannot be eliminated, but can be mitigated to a level of less than significance based on adherence to the following mitigation measure: Mitigation Measure 2: All dwellings constructed on the project site shall conform with Uniform Building Code Standards for Seismic Zone 4. c) Is the site subject to seismic groundfai/ure? LS. Based on the geotechnical reports prepared for the project, the risk of ground failure is anticipated to be low. Enforcement of provisions of the Uniform Building Code and recommendations contained in the geotechnical report prepared for the project will serve to reduce potential impacts of seismic ground failure to a less than significant level. No mitigation measures are required. -. d) Is the site subject to seiche, tsunami hazards, including liquefaction? LS. The geotechnical report prepared for the project concludes that the risk of liquefaction on the site is low. Since the site is not located adjacent to major bodies of water, there is also very low risk from seiche or tsunami events and no mitigation measures are required. e) Is the site subject to landslides or mudflows? NI. The site is relatively flat although moderate slopes exist along portions of the westerly boundary of the site. Proposed grading for the project would be constructed in conformance with engineering specifications and recommendations contained in the geotechnical report for the project as well as Uniform Building Code requirements. Therefore, any potential impacts from landslides would be considered less than significant, and no mitigation measures are required. f) Is the site subject to erosion, changes in topography or unstable soil conditions? PS/M. The site, as it presently exists, is reasonably flat with a gradual slopes on the westerly side of the property. A regional open drainage facility exists immediately to north of the site. The applicant has indicated that the site will be graded in order to provide for future building pads, roads, parking areas and similar features. Estimated grading quantities would include moving approximately 4,000 cubic yards of material on the site. Without appropriate mitigation, erosion could result into the adjacent flood control channel, onto Starward Drive and onto the commercial property to the south. The following mitigation measure is proposed to limit impacts related to water-borne erosion. . Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 27 July 1998 !/O/13V Mitigation Measure 3 The project developer shall prepare and the City shall approve an . erosion and sedimentation control plan for implementation throughout project construction. The plan should be prepared in accordance with City of Dublin and RWQCB design standards. The plan, at a minimum, should include the following: . All disturbed areas should be immediately revegetated or otherwise protected from both wind and water erosion upon completion of grading activities; . Stormwater runoff should be collected into stable drainage channels from small drainage basins to prevent the build up of large, potentially erosive stormwater flows; · Specific measures to control erosion from stockpiled earth material; · Runoff should be directed away from all areas disturbed by construction; . Sediment ponds or siltation basins should be used to trap eroded soils prior to discharge into off-site drainage culverts or channels.; . Major site development work involving excavation and earth moving for construction shall be done during the dry season, except as may be approved by the City Engineer Adherence to Mitigation Measure 3 will reduce potential erosion impacts to an insignificant level. g) Subsidence of land? LS. Minimal subsidence will occur, according to the preliminary geotechnical report prepared for the proposed project. No impacts are anticipated and no mitigation measures are required. h) Expansive soils? LS. Surficial soils on the adjacent site have been identified as having a moderate expansive potential. These soils generally tend to shrink, crack and become hard when dry, and expand and become softer when wet. Expansive soils have the potential to damage . building foundations and other improvements if specific construction techniques are not followed. The geotechnical report for the project recommends appropriate construction techniques to ensure that any negative effects of expansive soils can be reduced to a level of insignificance. No mitigation measures are therefore required. i) Unique geologic or physicalfeatures? NI. None have been identified on the site, based on a field visit and no mitigation measures are required. Unique geologic features include significant rock formations, hills and similar features. IV. Water Environmental Setting No surface water exists on the site. The nearest smface water source is an unnamed open flood control channel which forms the northerly and westerly 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 continues to be maintained by the District. According to a representative of Zone 7, the project site, as well as the remainder of the Tri- Valley area, is underlain by an extensive underground aquifer. The aquifer ranges in depth between 15 and 500 feet but is no longer used as the primary source of domestic water in the area. Zone 7 is presently finalizing plans to store treated wastewater within the aquifer during winter months, which will be pumped out and used for landscape irrigation during dry, summer . months. Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 28 July 1998 .. .. . I. YJ / DC) The Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) prepared for this portion of Dublin indicates that the site is subject to flooding during 500 year flooding events. Water is supplied to the community by the Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD), headquartered in Dublin. DSRSD maintains a variety of facilities 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 from an agreement with Zone 7 of the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (Zone 7). Zone 7 is ~ multi-purpose agency that oversees water issues in toe 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: State Water Project, local surface water and local groundwater. Project Impacts a) Changes to absorption rates? LS. The site is currently vacant and water percolates into the groundwater table. Development of 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 which must be accommodated by the local drainage system. Preliminarily, storm water will likely be directed off-site, into an existing public storm drain system within Starward Drive. Ultimately, storm water from the project would be discharges into the unnamed Zone 7 facility north of the project site. Prior to approval of a final subdivision map or issuance of building permits, the project applicant will be required, by City regulation, to submit and have approved a drainage and hydrology study which will include detailed calculations regarding the amount of storm water anticipated to be generated and the ultimate disposition of the water. The project developer would also be required to obtain necessary permits from Zone 7 to allow for additional discharge into the Zone 7 facility. With adherence to standard City procedures, no significant impacts are anticipated with regard to absorption rates or increased storm water runoff and no mitigation measures are required. b) Exposure of people or property to flood hazard? LS. The project site lies outside of the 100 year flood plain as identified on the applicable Flood Insurance Rate Map published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Community Panel No. 060705 0001A. This is not considered a significant impact and no mitigation measures are needed. c) Discharge into sUlface waters or changes to surface water quality? PS/M. The preliminary grading concept for the project involves collecting on-site storm water run-off and transporting it to the west for ultimate outfall into the unnamed Zone 7 flood control channel via a new outfall pipe. According to representatives from Zone 7, the Creek has been designed and constructed to accommodate storm water flows which would be generated on the site under developed conditions. Zone 7 will impose a number of standard conditions on the project builder to ensure Zone 7 access to the channel for maintenance purposes and to ensure that the outfall pipe is located and built to Zone 7 standards. The project developer will be required to obtain permits from Zone 7 prior to any construction within the channel. Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 29 July 1998 IJ}5D It is likely that initial storm water flows after a lengthy dry season (also known as "fIrst flush" . flows) may add pollutants into the adjacent flood control channel, including but not limited to grease, oil, fertilizers and other organic and inorganic material. Typically, subsequent flows 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 Water Quality Control Board issued a set of recommendations for New and Redevelopment Controls for Storm Water Program~. 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 pollutant contact with stormwater runoff at its source and remove such pollutants prior to being transported into receiving waters. The following mitigation measure is therefore recommended to reduce surface water quality pollution to a level of insignifIcance. Mitigation Measure 4: The project developer shall prepare a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan for approval by the Dublin Public Works and Planning Departments. The Plan shall include specifIc BMP measures to reduce water quality impacts from construction activities as well as from long term operational aspects of the proposed subdivision. d) Changes in amount of sUlface water? LS. Additional surface water will be added to the local . and regional flood control facility, however, with the imposition of Mitigation Measure 4 to maintain water quality, this is not anticipated to be a signifIcant impact. Representatives from Zone 7 have indicated that the flood control system has been sized to accommodate storm water run-off from this project. Therefore, less than signifIcant impacts are anticipated to the amount of surface water and no mitigation measures are needed. e) Changes in currents or direction of water movement? NI. No signifIcant changes to the direction of surface water flow is anticipated and no mitigations are required. f) Changes in quantity of groundwaters? NI. The project does not involve signifIcant underground construction and would therefore not affect groundwater resources. No mitigation measures would therefore be required. g) Altered direction of groundwater? NI. The project would have no impact to groundwater resources and no mitigation measures are needed. h) Impacts to groundwater quality? LS. The scope of the project does not include major underground construction so that groundwater resources will not be significantly affected and no mitigation measures are needed. i) Substantial reduction of groundwater resources? LS. Future project residents will rely on water supplied by the Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD). According to representatives of the District, the District anticipates adequate supplies to be able to provide a . long term water supply to the proposed project. Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 30 July 1998 ---. --. -. ( /3//3b v. Air Quality Environmental Setting The project site is located within the Tri- Valley area, a sheltered, inland area surrounded by hills to the west, south and east. Most of the air flow 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 10cal1imitations 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. Proiect Impacts a) Violation of air quality standarcll PS/M. Potential air quality impacts can be divided into short-term, construction related impacts and long-term operational impacts associated with the project. In terms of construction-related impacts, it is anticipated that the project would generate temporary increases in dust and particulate matter caused by site excavation and grading activities. Construction vehicle equipment on unpaved surfaces also generates dust as would wind blowing over exposed earth surfaces. Generalized estimates of construction air emissions include approximately 1.2 tons of dust per acre per month of construction activity. About 45 percent of construction-related dust is composed of large particles which settle rapidly on nearby surfaces and are easily filtered by human breathing patterns. The remainder of dust consists of small particles (also known as PMlO) and could constitute a more severe air quality impact, unless mitigated. The following mitigation measure is therefore recommended to reduce potential short-term, construction related impacts. Mitigation 1vIeasure 5: The following measures shall be incorporated into construction specifications and shall be followed by the project grading contractor: · All material excavated or graded shall be sufficiently watered to prevent excessive amounts of dust, Watering shall occur at least twice per day with complete coverage, preferably in the late morning and at the completion of work for the day; · All clearing, grading, earthmoving and excavation shall cease during periods of high winds greater than 20 mph over one hour; · All material transported off-site shall either be sufficiently watered or 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 limited to 15 mph; · During rough grading and construction, 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. Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 31 July 1998 I ",'/ 1/' ~.'" '",' ,;/:/ 1'/ Construction of the proposed project will add additional vehicular traffic to this portion of . Dublin. These additional vehicles will generate quantities of carbon monoxide, reactive organic gasses, nitrous oxide, sulfur dioxide and particulate matter (PMlO). However, the location of the proposed project near major transportation corridors (San Ramon Road and Amador Valley Boulevard), the relatively high density of the project (approximately 14 units per acre) and the fact that the proposed project is considered an "infill" type residential project results in confonnity with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District's Clean Air Plan. b) Expose sensitive receptor-s to pollutants? LS. The project, if approved and constructed, would add an anticipated 99 future residents to the project site. Since the site is located along San Ramon Road, a major regional arterial highway, additional sensitive receptors, future residents, would be exposed to somewhat higher concentrations of vehicle related pollutants. Given the prevailing wind pattern, the amount of pollutant exposure is not anticipated to be significant and no mitigation measures are required. c) Alter air movement, moisture, temperature or climate? LS. The project is anticipated to consist of two story residences, which will not significantly interfere with prevailing wind patterns or climatic conditions. The final height of buildings within the project will be detennined through the Site Development Plan process. No mitigation measures are required. d) Create objectionable odors? NI. As a proposed residential project, no objectionable odors are to be created and no mitigation measures are required. VI. Transportation/Circulation . Environmental Setting Major regional access to the site is provided by Interstate 580, an east-west freeway, and Interstate 680, a north-south freeway. Primary access to the site on a city-wide level is provided by Amador Valley Boulevard, an arterial roadway south of the site and San Ramon Road, a major arterial roadway immediately west of the project site. Local access to the site is gained via Starward Drive which forms the. easterly site boundary. Table 1, below, summarizes existing traffic conditions at key intersections near the proposed project site. This information is based on information presented in the Downtown Dublin Traffic Fee analysis, completed by TJKM Associates in 1996. Existing conditions are expressed in terms of volume-to-capacity on adjacent roadways using the Level of Service (LOS) concept. LOS ratings are qualitative descriptions of intersection operations reported using an A through F ranking system to describe travel delay and congestion. LOS A indicates free flow of traffic through intersections and LOS F indicates jammed conditions with excessive delay and long back-ups. The City of Dublin uses LOS D (volume-to- capacity ratio of 0.90) as the minimum acceptable level of service in the community. Mitigation measures must be imposed if the addition of project traffic causes intersections operations to drop to an LOS E or F. .

For stop sign controlled intersections. si al si nal Table 1 indicates that all three of the major intersections nearest the project site operate at satisfactory levels of service under existing conditions. The Downtown Traffic Fee Study analyzed future traffic and transportation conditions assuming full build out of the entire downtown area. As part of the analysis, future roadway improvements have been assumed, including upgrading the I-5801I-680 freeway interchange, the extension of BART to east and west Dublin, and construction of a new high occupancy vehicle lane on 1-680 between 1-580 and Rudgear Road in Walnut Creek. Other assumed roadway improvements include construction of the Shaefer Road interchange and construction of a new road paralleling Dublin Boulevard between Amador Plaza Road and Golden Gate Drive. Project Impacts a) Increased vehicle trips or traffic congestion? PS/M. The proposed project would add additional vehicles to local and regional roadways as a result of project construction. Table 2, below, summarizes future (2010) traffic conditions in the Downtown Dublin area. The analysis assumes future office development on the site. Assuming an average Floor Area Ratio of 0.30 for office development, a maximum of 31,300 square feet of office could be constructed on the site under the downtown plan. Based on standard generation rates published in the Institute of Traffic Engineers Trip Generation (Sixth Edition), an office development on the site would generate 48 morning peak hour trips and 46 evening peak hour trips. By comparison, the proposed project would generate 31 morning peak hour trips and 37 evening peak hour trips. Therefore, the following future traffic conditions analysis can be considered a conservative estimation of potential traffic impacts. This analysis includes the effects of constructing future improvements funded by the City's Traffic Impact Fee.

The following mitigation measure is recommended to ensure that any future cumulative impacts of the project would be mitigated and to ensure consistency with adopted City requirements: Mitigation Measure 6: The project developer shall pay a Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) for this project prior to or concurrently with the issuance of building pennits. . b) Hazards to safety from design features (e.g. sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g. farm equipment)? PS/M. Although a final, precise design for the proposed project has not been submitted by the applicant, implementation of the following mitigation measure will ensure that all no public safety hazards will be created. Mitigation Measure 7: The fmal design of the project shall meet all Dublin Public Works Department, Police Department and Fire Department policies and standards for internal street widths and comer radii. c) Inadequate emergency access or access to nearby uses? LS. The applicant proposes two drive approaches from Starward Drive. This complies with Dublin Police Department and Alameda County Fire Department requirements of providing two access points for a residential project of this size. No impacts are therefore anticipated with regard to emergency access and no mitigation measures are required. d) Insufficient parking capacity onsite or offsite? LS. The proposed project would supply parking at a ratio of 2.0 spaces per unit within an enclosed garage per unit plus a additional open parking on a number of driveways. The site plan also indicates that 15 on-site guest parking spaces would be dispersed throughout the project site. This quantity of parking meets City parking requirements so that no impacts would be created and no mitigations are required. . Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 34 July 1998 -. . . tj?j;fJv e) Hazards or barriers for pedestrians or bicyclists? LS. The proposed project would not result in barriers or hazards to pedestrians or bicyclists. A sidewalk currently exists along the west side of Starward Drive along the frontage of the site. Although internal sidewalks are not proposed, the limited volume of internal traffic is not anticipated to be heavy so that pedestrians and bicyclists may use the internal roadway for non-vehicular circulation. No significant impacts are anticipated and no mitigation measures are required. f) Conflicts with adopted policies supporting alternative transportation (e.g. bus turnouts, bicycle racks)? LS. Construction of the proposed project would serve to advance regional and subregional goals and policies which promote the development of higher density residential projects near major transportation corridors. No significant impacts are anticipated and no mitigation measures are needed. g) Rail, waterborne or air traffic impacts? NI. The proposed project is not sited near operating railroad facilities, near a navigable waterway or near an airport so that no impacts would result should the project be built. No mitigations are required. VII. Biological Resources Environmental Settin~ The site is currently vacant and is generally devoid of vegetation. The one exception is a column of mature trees growing along the southerly and westerly property boundaries. Single trees are also found along the northerly property line. The only significant tree on or adjacent to the site includes a 48" walnut tree generally located on the southwest comer of the site, but located immediately off the project site. Proiect Impacts a) Endangered, threatened or rare species or their habitats (including but not limited to plants, fish, insects, animals and birds) NI. No such species have been observed on the site based on filed observations conducted in January, 1998. No impacts are anticipated and no mitigation. measures are therefore required. b) Locally designated species (e.g. heritage trees). PS/M. Development plans submitted by the applicant indicate that the majority of trees on the perimeter of the site would be removed. The 48" walnut southwest of the site would be retained. The following mitigation measure is recommended to ensure that the walnut tree is safely preserved: Mitigation Measure 8: Prior to issuance of grading pennits, the project developer shall prepare a tree preservation plan for the off-site walnut tree, including limitations on grading near the drip line of the tree, providing temporary fencing of the tree during construction and clean cutting of tree roots, if necessary. The tree preservation plan shall be approved by the City's landscape architect. c) Locally designated natural communities (e.g. oakforest, coastal habitat) NI. There are no significant stands of vegetation on the site so that no impacts would result to natural biotic conditions and no mitigations are required. Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 35 July 1998 i Ii j/3i:) d) Wetland habitat (e.g. marsh, riparian and vernal pool)? LS. No wetlands exist on the project . site so that no impacts would result if the project were built and no mitigation measures are required. e) Wildlife dispersal or migration corridors? NT. The site is substantially surrounded by existing commercial and residential development and no wildlife corridors have been observed on the site. The flood control facility north of the site could serve as a wildlife corridor area, however, the facility has been fenced to preclude access by the general public. Therefore, significant impacts are not anticipated and no mitigation measures are required. VII. Energy and Mineral Resources Environmental Settin~ The Conservation Element of the Dublin General Plan does not reference any significant mineral resources on the project site nor were any such resources observed during a field investigation in June, 1998. Proiect Impacts a) Conflict with adopted energy conservation plans? NI. The proposed project will not conflict with energy goals, policies or programs established in the General Plan regarding energy or energy conservation. No mitigation measures are required. b) Use nonrenewable resources in a wasteful and inefficient manner? NI. The proposed project . is not anticipated to use resources in a wasteful manner. The project will be constructed in accord with the Uniform Building Code and Title 24 of the California Administrative Code, both of which require stringent energy efficient construction methods, such as insulation, thermal pane windows and installation of efficient appliances. Exterior landscaping will be governed by both AB 325 and Section 8.88 of the Dublin Zoning Ordinance, which requires "water budgets" for landscape material sand methods of irrigation. Finally, the City is mandated by AB 939 to reduce the solid waste stream generated by residences, business and industrial establishments by promoting recycling and similar programs. No specific mitigations measures are required. c) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be offuture value to the region and residents of the State? NI. The preliminary geotechnical investigation for the project did not indicate that significant quantities of mineral resources are located on the site. IX. Hazards Environmental Setting A Phase I Environmental Assessment was completed for the project site in May, 1997 by the finn of ACC Environmental Consultants. The purpose of the assessment was to identify historical or current sources of contamination or hazards on the site. The report concludes that no evidence of recognized environmental conditions exist on the site. Within one-half mile of the site, a number of documented releases of hazardous substances and/or petroleum products exist, . Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 36 July 1998 ~. . . Vt)':3c:>. however, there is no documented evidence that constituent plumes originating from any of these sites have migrated to or under the project site. Project Impacts a) A risk of accidental explosion or release of hazardous substances including but not limited to oil, pesticides, chemicals, or radiation? LS. The proposed residential project will not contain substantial quantities of oil, pesticides, chemicals or radiation. It is likely that limited quantities of household chemicals, pesticides, herbicides and similar materials would be used and stored on the site, either in individual units or for maintenance purposes. The amounts of such materials would be typical of any residential development in the community and such quantities are not considered to be significant. No mitigation measures are required. b) Possible inteiference with an emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan? LS. The proposed project would not block Starward Drive, San Ramon Road or any other major evacuation routes so that no impacts would result should the project be built c) The creation of any health hazard or potential health hazards? NT. As a proposed residential development, the project will not generate a health hazard and n mitigation measures are required. d) Exposure of people to existing sources of potential health hazards? NT. Based on the completed Phase One Analysis, no documented sources of health hazard exists on the site. No mitigation measures are required. e) Increasedfire hazard in areas with flammable brush, grass or trees? PS/M. Construction of the proposed project will add wood frame dwellings, garages and other related improvements, including new landscaping. All structures will be built in conformity with provisions of the Uniform Building Code and Uniform Fire Code to minimize fire hazard. Landscaped areas will be permanently irrigated to ensure that plant material will not be flammable, based on recommended Mitigation Measure 9, below. Mitigation Measure 9: Permanent irrigation systems and automatic controllers shall be installed within all front yard areas and along the StaIward Drive project frontage to assist in reducing the danger from grass fIres. X. Noise Environmental Setting Primary long term sources of noise in the vicinity of the project site include vehicular-related noise emanating from San Ramon Road and a combination of vehicular and operational noise from the existing Shamrock commercial center south of the project site. A noise barrier masonry wall has been constructed along the west side of San Ramon Road north of the project site, but this wall does not extend along the project frontage. There is currently no noise barrier between the project site and the commercial center south of the site. Although a specific noise analysis has not been performed for this project, it is estimated that existing noise levels exceed the maximum City exterior noise exposure level of 65 dBA for single family neighborhoods. The City and state maximum interior noise exposure level is 45 dBA. Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 37 July 1998 5~fD Proiect Impacts a) Increases in existing noise levels? PS/M. As a residential project, small, incremental permanent increases in noise from automobiles, mechanical and gardening equipment and similar sources can be expected. These are not anticipated to be significant. Short-term construction related noise can also be expected to be generated which could be considered significant based on specific types of equipment which may'be used in the construction process. Noise impacts would be felt by residences of existing residential dwellings north of the project site. . The following mitigation measure is therefore recommended to limit the potential impacts of construction noise on adjoining properties to an acceptable level. Mitigation Measure 10: All construction activities on the project site shall be limited to 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, unless alternative hours are approved by the Dublin Building Official for structural 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. b) Exposure of people to severe noise levels? PS/M. Construction of the proposed project would expose residents of dwellings on the southerly and westerly portion of the site to noise levels in excess of that established in the Dublin General Plan. The proposed development plan indicates that a solid noise barrier wall would be constructed along the north, west and south property lines, although precise locations have not been submitted. The following mitigation measure is . recommended to reduce off-site noise impacts on the project to a level of less than significance. Mitigation Measure 11: The project developer shall have a qualified acoustical consultant: (1) Verify and approve the precise location, heights and type of materials to be used for noise barrier walls. Noise barrier wall plans submitted to the City for building permits shall be stamped approved by the acoustical consultant. (2) Verity that interior noise levels for dwellings constructed on lots 1-16 comply with maximum interior noise levels established by the City of Dublin and California Administrative Code. Construction plans shall be stamped approved by the qualified acoustical consultant. XI. 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, under contract to the City of Dublin, which provides structural fire suppression, rescue, hazardous materials control and public education services. The closest Fire Station is located on Donohue Drive approximately one-quarter mile east of the project site. . Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 38 July 1998 --. ...... : ~. -. ;;;j;JD · 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. · Schools. Educational facilities are provided by the Dublin Unified School District which operates kindergarten through high school services within the community. Schools which would serve the project include Dublin High School (grades 9-12) and Wells Middle School (graded 6-8). Grades K-5 could be served by one of three elementary schools within the District. · 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. The City of Dublin has adopted a Public Facilities Fee for all new residential development in the community for the purpose of financing new municipal public facilities needed by such development. Facilities anticipated to be funded by the proposed fee would include completion of the Civic Center Complex, construction of a new library, expansion of the existing senior center, acquisition and development of new community and neighborhood parks and similar municipal buildings and facilities. The applicant would be required to pay this fee. Proiect Impacts a) Fire protection? PS/M. According to representatives of the Fire Department, the proposed project lies within a quarter mile radius of a fire station located on Donohue Drive nonh of Amador Valley Boulevard. A typical response time of under five 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. This would include installation of fire hydrants and similar fire protection measures. A potentially significant impact would be the width of the proposed private street through the site, which is planned to be 24-feet. with no on-street parking allowed. Although considered adequate to accommodate normal vehicular traffic through the site, any vehicles parking on the street could block access by fire and/or police emergency vehicles and could possibly hinder emergency evacuation of the site. The following mitigation measure is recommended to reduce this potential impact to a level of insignificance: Mitigation Measure 12: The private street through the site shall be painted and striped to preclude vehicle parking adjacent to the curb. Signing and painting shall be approved by the Alameda County Fire Department and Dublin Police Department prior to occupancy of any portion of the project. In addition, the project developer shall provide written authorization for Police and Fire officials to enforce the no parking requirement Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 39 July 1998 J 9/J.5~ b) Police protection? PS/M. The Police Department has indicated an ability to provide safety and . security services to the proposed project. Adherence to Mitigation Measure 11 will ensure that adequate emergency access would be provided through the site at all times. c) Schools? PS/M. The Dublin Unified School District recently completed a Facilities Master Plan which includes estimates of student generation by residential density type. Since many local schools are or are expected to be at full capacity in the near future, the following mitigation is recommended to ensure that potential impacts can be reduced to a less than significant level. Mitigation Measure 13: The applicant shall, prior to issuance of building pennits, obtain a written agreement with the Dublin Unified School District for the project's fair share mitigation of school impacts. Any fees which are required pursuant to that agreement shall be paid prior to issuance of building pernrits. d) Maintenance of public facilities, including roads? LS. The project represents an incremental increase in area population and vehicles. Roadways within the project will be privately owned and maintained. The applicant is required to pay a traffic impact fee to the City of Dublin which will assist in off-setting costs of public roadway maintenance. In regard to the existing slope easement adjacent to San Ramon Road, the proposed grading plan calls for a retaining wall in the general vicinity of the existing slope easement so that the slope easement would no longer be needed and can safely be abandoned. e) Other governmental services? LS. The project would represent incremental increases in the demand for general governmental services. Payment of the City's Public Facility Fee would . offset any impacts caused by the project. XII. Utilities and Service Systems. Environmental Setting: The project site is served by the following service providers: · Electrical and natural gas power: Pacific Gas and Electric Co. · Communications: Pacific Bell · Water supply and sewage treatment: Dublin San Ramon Services District · Storm drainage: City of Dublin · Solid waste disposal: Dublin-Livermore Disposal Company Proiect Impacts a) Power or natural gas? LS. According to representatives from Pacific Gas and Electric Company, adequate facilities exist in the vicinity of the project to provide power and natural gas service. No impacts to electrical power or natural gas systems are anticipated and no mitigation measures are needed. . Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 40 July 1998 ~. . ~. -. 5:i Jp b) Communication systems? LS. According to representatives from Pacific Bell, communication facilities presently exist near the site which could be extended to serve future development on the site. No impacts are anticipated and no mitigation measures are required. c) Local or regional water treatment or distribution systems? LS. According to representatives of DSRSD, existing underground water facilities exist in nearby streets to supply adequate quantities and pressure to meet minimum domestic and fire flows. Less than significant impacts are anticipated to local and regional water treatment facilities and no mitigation measures are required. Reference Section IV, Water, for a discussion of long term water supplies to the project.. d) Sewer or septic systems? LS. According to representatives of DSRSD, a sewer line has been constructed within StarWard Drive which would adequately accommodate anticipated wastewater requirements of the project. Adequate capacity exists to accommodate anticipated sewer flows from the proposed project. Untreated effluent would be transported to DSRSD's Regional Treatment Plant in Pleasanton for treatment prior to being discharged into the East Bay Discharge Authority's outfall line for eventual disposal into San Francisco Bay. DSRSD officials indicate that adequate capacity exists within the regional treatment facility to accommodate this project. e) Storm water drainage? LS. This topic was previously addressed in Section IV, Water. f) Solid waste disposal? LS. The City of Dublin contracts with Livermore-Dublin Disposal Company to collect solid waste from households and businesses and transport it to the Altamont Landfill, located in eastern Alameda County. The Landfill currently has an anticipated capacity until the year 2005 and plans are underway to extend landfill capacity for an additional 50 years. Livermore-Dublin Disposal Company also operates a curbside recycling service to ensure that the City's waste stream complies with state requirements for reduction of solid waste. The most current information available indicates that Dublin exceeds state requirements for reducing solid waste. Although approval of the proposed project will incrementally increase the amount of solid waste, any such increases will be able to be accommodated with existing facilities and resources. g) Local or regional water supplies? LS. DSRSD staff indicate that adequate long term water supplies are available from Zone 7 and other sources to serve the proposed project No mitigation measures are needed. XID. Aesthetics. Environmental Settin ~ The site is currently vacant of any permanent structures. The only feature of aesthetic significance in the immediate vicinity is the large walnut tree southwest of the site. Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 41 July 1998 5"'1 )5D Proiect Impacts . a) Affect a scenic vista or view? NI. Based on a field observation of the project site, no existing views or vistas would be blocked to a significant degree and no mitigation measures are required. b) Have a demonstrable negative aesthetic effect? PS/M. The proposed project would be largely self contained with adequate landscaped buffering or noise barrier walls on all sides. However, the design and appearance of the noise wall is unknown at this time. If not properly designed, the noise barrier wall could result in a significant adverse impact for motorists passing the site on San Ramon Road as well as from adjoining properties. The following mitigation measure is therefore recommended to reduce potential aesthetic impacts to a level of insignificance: Mitigation Measure 14: Perimeter noise barrier walls shall be attractively designed of masonry block or alternative materials with the final design to be approved as part of Site Development Plan review to ensure that the barrier wall will not result in a negative aesthetic impact. The perimeter wall shall also be painted with graffiti-resistant paint. c) Create light or glare? LS. The proposed residential project would add additional exterior lighting in the project vicinity, including driveway lighting, security lighting and porch lights and other light sources. However, perimeter walls would be constructed to block spill over of light onto adjacent sites so that no significant impacts would result and no mitigation measures would be required. XIV. Cultural Resources . Environmental Settin~ There is evidence that the site contains a streambed that has been 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. Prqject Impacts a) Disturb paleontological resources? PS/M. Construction of the proposed project could disturb buried paleontological artifacts through grading and general site construction. This would be a potentially significant impact. Adherence to the following mitigation measure would reduce this impact to a level of less than significant: Mitigation Measure 15: Should archeological artifacts or remains be discovered during construction of the project, work in the vicinity of the fmd shall stop immediately until a qualified archeologist can evaluate 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. b) Disturb archeological resources? PS/M. Adherence to Mitigation Measure 14 would also reduce potential impacts to archeological resources to a level of less than significance. . Dublin Planning Department Starward Drive Project/Initial Study PA 98-013 Page 42 July 1998 .. , .. . 55)/:30 c) Have the potential to cause a physical change which would affect unique ethnic cultural values? NI. The site is presently vacant and exhibits no unique ethnic or cultural values. No impacts are therefore anticipated and no mitigation measures are required. d) Restrict existing religious or sacred uses within potential impact area? NI. Similar to above, the site does not contain unique religious or sacred uses so that no mitigation measures are needed. XV. Recreation. Proiect Impacts a) Increase the demandfor neighborhood or regional parks or other recreationalfacilities? LS. The addition of approximately 99 residents in this portion of the City will add an incremental demand for parks and recreational facilities. This would be a significant impact and the following mitigation measure is recommended to reduce potential recreational impacts to a level of less than significance: Mitigation Measure 16: The project developer shall pay required Quimby Act park in- lieu fees to the City of Dublin prior to issuance of building permits. b) Affect existing recreational opportunities? NI. The project site does not contain existing recreational facilities and no impacts are anticipated. XVI. 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 afish 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 animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? No. The preceding analysis indicates that the proposed project will not have a significant adverse impact on overall environmental quality, including biological resources or cultural resources. b) Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term, to the disadvantage of long-term, environmental goals? No. The project represents an example of infIlI, higher density housing which will be sited near a major regional transportation corridor. c) Does the project have impacts that are individually 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, including additional traffic, air emissions, and need for public services and utilities, the project site lies within an already urbanized area and sufficient capacity exists within service systems to support the additional population anticipated associated with the project.

TIre Land Use Element contains tlrefollowing policies wlriclr deal with tlris application: 2.1.1. Housing Availability Guiding PoJicv A: Encourage housing of varied types, sizes and prices to meet current . and future needs of aIJ Dublin residents; Implementing Policv B: Designates sites available for residential development in the primary planning area for medium to medium-high density where site capacity and access are suitable and where the higher density are compatible with existing residential neighborhoods nearby. Discussion: The proposed project would increase housing opportunities in this portion of Dublin by offering a higher density, single family housing configuration. In contrast to attached housing styles, traditional within Medium Density Residential areas, the proposed project would allow for individual home ownership with individual yard areas. 2. 1.2 Neighborhood Diversity Guiding Policy: Avoid economic segregation by city sector. Implementing Policy B: Allocate medium and medium-high residential densities to development sites in all sectors of the primary planning area. . Discussion: Approval of the proposed project would allow for higher density development along the east side of San Ramon Road, in an area predominately developed with traditional single family homes to the north of the project site. 2.1.3 . Residential Compatibility Guiding Policy: Avoid abrupt transitions between single family development and higher density development on adjoining sites. Implementing Policy B: Require all site plans to respect the privacy and scale of residential development Implementing Policy C: Require a planned development zoning policy for all development proposals over 6.0 units per gross residential acre. Discussion: The proposed project would provide for a positive land use transition between more intensive commercial uses fronting on Amador Valley Boulevard and low density, single family neighborhoods north of the site. The proposed site plan has been designed to provide for maximum separation and privacy between new residences on the . ATTACHMENT 4 . . . 6,:30};0 project site and existing single family residences to the north. A Planned Development Rezoning has been requested to ensure consistency between Implementing Policy C and the proposed project. Tlte Schools, Public Lands and Utilities Element contains Guiding Policy B which requires cooperation with the Dublin Unified School District to ensure provision of school facilities in the Extended Planning Area. Although the project site is located within the Primary Planning Area, not the Extended Planning Area, officials of the Dublin Unified School District were consulted as part of the Mitigated Negative Declaration process and a mitigation measure included to require the project developer to fully mitigate all impacts to the school district. Tlte Noise Element established maximum interior and exterior noise exposure levels for single family developments. The applicant proposes to construct a continuation of the existing noise barrier waII along the east side of San Ramon in a southerly direction to provide noise protection for dwellings that would be constructed on the site. A noise barrier wall is also proposed along the southerly property line to minimize noise emanating from the commercial center south of the site. Mitigation Measures contained in the Mitigated Negative Declaration would require that an acoustical consultant certify that dwellings near high noise sources be certified that both interior and exterior noise levels are met. 61}1b RESOLUTION NO. 98-37 .

Approximately twenty neighbors attended. The Applicants, the DeSilva Group and City Staff gave a brief presentation which was followed by an informal question and answer sesSIOn. The following is a list of concerns stated by the residents of the surrounding neighborhood. a) The project will increase traffic in the area, adding to the existing difficulty in making a right turn off Starward Drive onto Amador Valley Road (no signal light exists at this intersection). Response: Commercial land uses were evaluated under the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan Traffic Study. The traffic generated by this residential project would be less than that generated by a commercial project, which would be a permitted use under the existing General Plan and zoning. The Public Works Department will investigate the need for a signal light through a city- wide traffic study planned for the immediate future. b) A residential project of31 homes will increase the number of visitor parking in the neighborhood. Response: There are 23 guest parking stalls available on-site and an additional 11 parking stalls directly along the Starward frontage of the site, providing a total of 34 guest parking spaces. The Applicants eXplained that adequate parking is available on-site, directly on Starward Drive and on the adjacent commercial property, and in their opinion visitors to the project would not have to enter the neighborhood in search of parking. c) Maintain privacy of the existing homes on Gunshot Court. Response: The Applicants explained that the site plan has been designed with sensitivity to this issue. The minimum setback between the nearest residential unit on the project site and the nearest home on Gunshot Court would be 95 feet. d) Residents asked what type of people the homes would be marketed to and what the price of the homes would be. Response: The Applicants stated that the potential market for these properties would be mainly single home owners and retired persons. The house price range from the high $200,000 to the low $300,000. e) Residents were concerned regarding construction traffic, noise and safety Response: City Staff explained that these were issues that the City were also concerned about and are addressed in the conditions of approval attached for the project. f) Residents of the adjacent homes on Gunshot were concerned regarding the difference in grade between the proposed development and existing houses and the actually height of the sound wall. Response: The difference in grade approaches approximately 2 feet, which would result in an eight foot fence increasing privacy between the project and the houses on Gunshot Court. g) Density of the project, and the possibility of removing a couple oflots. Response: The Applicant stated that to lose a couple of lots would not be economical and would render the project infeasible. In conclusion, the surrounding residents had a number of concerns regarding the project as stated above, but would be happy to see the site developed.
