In preparation for that meeting, the following activities have been engaged in: 1 . A joint meeting was held between the Cities of Dublin, Pleasanton, San Ramon and the Dublin San Ramon Services District to discuss the potential change in organization of the Dublin San Ramon Services District. At that meeting, representatives from the Dublin San Ramon Services District indicated that the District was willing to serve the Cities with respect to future growth in those cities . 2 . The Mayor and City Manager met with Lt. Colonel Mark, Commander of Camp Parks with respect to gaining his support for future access through the Army ' s property to the east. Lt . Colonel Mark has responded in a letter dated November 8 , 1983 that he has forwarded the City' s request to the Presidio for its review and has indicated in his recommendation that the City ' s request be accommodated. 3 . The Staff has prepared a letter, map of the proposed sphere, and a survey ( see attached) , which was sent to all of the property owners within the proposed sphere area to ascertain whether or not they would support the City in its bid for the proposed sphere area. Staff has received thus far, approximately 50 responses of the total 300 letters which were sent to the property owners in the proposed sphere area. Staff has plotted these responses on a map of the sphere which will be ready to present to the Local Agency Formation Commission at the time of the hearing. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- COPIES TO : ITEM NO. 9. SPHERE OF INFLUENCE Agenda Statement Pagq 2 In addressing LAFCO on Thursday, I would recommend the following procedure as being most effective : 1 . That the City have a spokesperson to make the basic presentation to the LAFCO Commission Members . 2 . That the City display the map of the proposed sphere area along with the position of the various property owners that have been contacted in order to demonstrate to LAFCO the support for the City ' s proposed sphere . This map will be brought to the Council meeting Monday night for purposes of discussion. 3 . After the discussion of the issues to be addressed as part of the LAFCO report on Monday night, it is recommended that a written document be developed by Staff utilizing those comments between Monday night and Thursday for presentation to the Local Agency Formation Commission as written testimony . 4 . Those property owners that have been contacted and have responded favorably to the City ' s proposed sphere should be contacted prior to the meeting and asked to either present verbal or written support of the City ' s proposed sphere at the sphere hearing. For purposes of Monday nights ' discussion, it is recommended that as a minimum, answers are developed for the 8 points required by state law as factors which must be considered when, developing a sphere of influence . These factors are listed on page 1 and 2 of the LAFCO Staff Report. Staff will present some suggested responses to LAFCO at Monday nights ' meeting. Staff has also received several comments from some of the members of the Council with respect to the LAFCO Report . These will be included in the material presented to the Council Monday night.

SPHERE OF INFLUENCE POLICIES AND GUIDELINES OCTOBER 20 , 1983 REVISED: May 19, 1983 August 15, 1983 September 1, 1983 September 6, 1983 COUNTY OF ALAMEDA SPHERE OF INFLUENCE POLICIES & GUIDELINES Definition Probable ultimate physical boundaries and service area of a local governmental agency. Purpose 1. To plan and shape the logical and orderly urban development through logical and orderly evaluation of local governmental agencies. i 2. To plan for the provision of present and future service needs of the i County and its communities. Goals 1. Insure orderly urban development in the areas adjacent to a city or district. In this capacity, sphere of influence may reflect the philos- ophies of the General Plans adopted by the cities and the County, and Master Plans of Special Districts as a comprehensive guide to their orderly development. The sphere of influence does not necessarily need to indicate within a precise time frame the ultimate boundaries of a city or district. It may attempt to describe an area within which common problems are likely to occur, the solutions to which may be commonly shared and become inherited responsibilities. 2. To plan for logical units of local government that will provide citizen services in the most economical fashion and to insure that each unit will have a sound economic potential to finance the required services. 3. To promote cooperative planning efforts between cities, County, and districts; to insure the execution of concepts of the respective general plans as they relate to cooperative planning. 4. To assist other governmental districts and agencies in planning the logical and economic extension and use of all governmental facilities and services , thus avoiding unnecessary duplications. 5. To coordinate standards for property development and encourage timely urbanization with adequate provision of essential services. 6. To assist property owners to plan comprehensively within a governmental structure for ultimate use and development of their land. Factors r State law requires that at least the following factors be considered when developing a Sphere of Influence: i (1 ) The maximum possible service area of the agency based upon present and possible service capabilities of the agency. i (2) The range of services the agency is providing or could provide. (3) The projected future population growth of the area. (4) The type of development occurring or planned for the area, including, but not limited to residential , commercial , and industrial development. (5) The present and probable future service needs of the area. (6 ) Local governmental agencies presently providing services to such area and the present level , range and adequacy of services provided by such existing local governmental agencies. (7) The existence of social and economic interdependence and interaction between the area within the boundaries of a local governmental agency and the area which surrounds it and which could be considered within the agency' s sphere of influence. (8) The existence of agricultural preserves in the area which could be considered within an agency' s sphere of influence and the effect on maintaining the physical and economic integrity of such preserves in the event that such preserves are within a sphere of influence of a local governmental agency. _2- Policy 1. Priorities on Annexations and Special District Formations The general policy of the Commission, as reflected in its policy regarding Spheres of Influence, is that all urban development, whenever reasonable, shall be municipal developments. Unless there are strong reasons to change it, priorities in annexations to governmental entities to promote this policy shall be in the following order: I I A) Annexation to a city, rather than a special district, if both can i provide the same services at approximately the same cost and environmental impact. B) Annexation to a district or a city rather than the formation of a new special district or city. C) Formation of a new political entity is the last alternative. Whenever a new political or taxing entity is indicated, the formation of a self- governing special district is the least desirable. 2. Municipal Spheres of Influence and Overlapping Special Districts and Cities A. The Sphere of Influence of a city may overlap the Sphere of Influence of a special district. B. Whenever a special district provides a municipal service, the Sphere of the City supersedes that of the special district. C. The Sphere of Influence of the special district providing municipal service. shall not extend beyond that of the city' s Sphere of Influence. D. The Sphere of Influence of sanitary and water districts may be coterminus with the Sphere of the city or cities they serve. The Commission may condition annexation to a sanitary or water district with annexation to a city or require annexation to sanitary or water district when territory is annexed to a city. -3- E. Commission may, as a condition of approval , order detachment from any special district that does not already provide services to all or a portion of a city. 3. Spheres of Influence for Unincorporated Areas. A. The Commission may set Spheres of Influence for unincorporated preserves for specified purposes such as agricultural or open space or areas of future incorporation. B. Areas for future incorporation will be considered whenever the County' s General Plan includes land designated for urban development that is not within the Sphere of Influence of an existing city or special district and is of sufficient magnitude to expect eventual incorporation. C. Commission may designate areas for future urbanization without designating it as a Sphere of Influence for a specific type of governmental organization; e.g. , city, special district or county service area. CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING SPHERE OF INFLUENCE LINES 1. A determination must be made by the Local Agency Formation Commission regarding which local agency is the logical one to provide services and necessary public facilities in a sphere of influence. A great deal of weight will be given to the city' s or district' s ability and willingness to provide these services. Therefore, it is essential that demonstrated evidence be given that the city or district has or will have the resource capability beyond its own internal needs to provide services in the area to be included in the influence lines. 2. Land that is in an agricultural preserve would ordinarily be excluded from the Sphere of Influence of any city or district. . a. Priority for inclusion shall provide for non-prime agricultural land rather than prime agricultural land. b. Land may be included in Sphere of Influence of city or district if it has no effect on maintaining the physical and economic integrity of such perserves. -4- c. Status of non-renewal of contracts and pending withdrawal may be considered when developing a Sphere of Influence. d. Area may be included in a Sphere of Influence when the appropriate General Plan provides for a use other than agricultural or open space. 3. Adequate planning for services which should be considered in determining the most feasible city and .special district- influence lines include the following: A. Sewerage facilities, either developed or planned. B. Police and fire protection. 1 C. Waste disposal . D. Provision of water transmission mains, water supply either planned or developed E. Parks and recreation service. F. Compatible street circul.ation. G. Economic and social relationships. H. Geographic or natural topographic features such as rivers, ridgelines, ravines, etc . I. Man-made barriers, such as freeways, major streets, railroads, etc . Review of Existing Spheres of Influence The Commission shall review periodically the Sphere of Influence of each city and district. Sphere of Influence will be reviewed whenever there is: A. General Plan Amendment by either the county or city that affects the municipal service requirements of an area. B. Any other change of conditions or policies of the county, city or district that might affect the service capabilities to the area to be served. -5- r SPHERE OF INFLUENCE CITY OF DUBLIN i DUBLIN SAN RAMON SERVICES DISTRICT ' i i STAFF REPORT LOCAL AGENCY FORMATION COMMISSION JULY 21, 1983 I ' SPHERE OF INFLUENCE CITY OF DUBLIN DUBLIN SAN RAMON SERVICES DISTRICT Introduction and Background This report and Sphere of Influence recommendation is for the City of Dublin as well as the Alameda County portion of the Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD) . It is advisable that the Sphere of Influence for these two agencies be developed simultaneously because of their interdependence on each other for i services to their residents. The Dublin San Ramon Services District provides in j the Alameda County portion .liquid waste disposal , water, fire protection, { recreation and solid waste disposal . The City on the other hand covers almost j an identical area provides the remainder of the urban services primarily land use control , law enforcement and street maintenance. The major difference in the exterior boundaries of the two districts is that the Community Services District has recently annexed the areas of Camp Parks Federal Military Base and Santa Rita, County property, for the purpose of providing only liquid waste and solid waste disposal . The City encompasses a four square mile area and the addition of the above parcels add 5 square miles to the Community Services District for a total area of 9 square miles. The present population of the City of Dublin is approximately 13,496. Since the Camp Parks and Santa Rita areas are Federal and County institutions, they, add considerable acreage but very little population. The first urban development in this area began in approxiamtely 1962 with the construction of homes by the Volk-McLain Housing Company. The Parks Community Services District was established in 1953, but was never operational . It was expanded in 1960 to include the present DSRSD boundaries in both counties (except for Camp Parks and Santa Rita) . The existing Sphere of Influence, both the original and the latest amendment, includes the Dublin San Ramon Service Area as a part of the Pleasanton Sphere. Resolution No. 81-41 (Exhibit I) was developed just prior to the incorporation of Dublin and the resolution recognizes that if the City of Dublin is incorporated, this Sphere should be adjusted accordingly. The area, effecti'Ve February 1, 1982, was incorporated as the City of Dublin. Policies and Guidelines The Commission has two sources of guidance to be considered when developing a Sphere of Influence. First the State law lists the following factors that must be considered when developing a Sphere of Influence. They are: (1 ) The maximum possible service area of the agency based upon present and possible service capabilities of the agency. (2) The range of services the agency is providing or could provide. (3) The projected future population growth of the area. (4) The type of development occurring or planned for the area, including, but not limited to residential , commercial , and industrial development. (5) The present and probable future service needs of the area. (6) Local governmental agencies presently providing services to such area and the present level , range and adequacy of services provided by such existing local governmental agencies. (7) The existence of social and economic interdependence and interaction between the area within the boundaries of a local governmental agency and the area which surrounds it and which could be considered within the agency' s sphere of influence. (8) The existence of agricultural preserves in the area which could be considered within an agency' s sphere of influence and the effect on maintaining the physical and economic integrity of such preserves in the event that such preserves are within a sphere of influence of a local governmental agency. The law requires that the Commission respond in writing to each of these factors. In addition to the eight factors in the State law, the Commission has developed its own Spheres of Influence Policies, Guidelines, Criteria and Procedures. (Exhibit II ) . The fact that the Commission is in the process of reviewing its Policies and Guidelines should not deter this report because the policies germane to this issue are not being considered for change. The Commission' s Policies and Guidelines provide that the Sphere of Influence should reflect the philosophies of the General Plan adopted by the cities and the county. Since we have no General Plan for the City, certain information and guidelines must be developed from the County' s General Plan. The County' s General Plan in this area was last reviewed in 1977 and it indicated that the area known as Dublin had 4,133 housing units and a holding capacity of 6,470 units or was 64% built out. Since this is a new city, they do not have a General Plan adopted and rather than create a "chicken and egg" situation, a Sphere of Influence is being developed based on the existing guidelines and the County' s General Plan as well as the General Plans of surrounding jurisdictions. City Request The City of Dublin by Resolution No. 14-83, Exhibit IIIA, declared the planning area boundaries for the city "the eastern limit of the ridge east of Collier Canyon Road from Highway 50 to the Contra Costa County line, the western limit at the ridge west of Eden Canyon/Palomares Canyon Road from Contra Costa County line to the Hayward City Limit, then following the Hayward City Limit on south and on the east following the Pleasanton City Limit." Resolution No. 15-83, Exhibit IIIB, requests the Local Agency Formation Commission to develop a Sphere of Influence for the City which is coexististent with the planning area boundaries adopted in the previous resolution. The City further requests that the Sphere of Influence for the City of Pleasanton be adjusted as it is conflicts with their request. Established Spheres of Influence are usually smaller than their planning area. -2- The staff recommendation cannot concur in the City' s request since it does not comply with either the Commission' s Guidelines or the factors enumerated in the State Law. City of Pleasanton and Livermore Comments The Cities of Pleasanton and Livermore have responded to the proposal of the Dublin Sphere of Influence. They are City of Pleasanton Resolution No. 83-262, Exhibit IV, where a City Council of the City of Pleasanton strongly objects to the City of Dublin Sphere of Influence including any of the area south of 580 Freeway, in particularly that area now within the City of Pleasanton Sphere of Influence. I The City of Livermore by letter dated April 29, 1983, Exhibit V, points out that a developer has already filed an annexation request on property between Collier Canyon Road and Doolan Road north of I-580. The City is now in the comment portion of the CEQA process on the prezoning application. The City of Hayward and the Castro Valley Municipal Advisory Council have indicated that they will comment on the proposed Sphere. Recommended Sphere Southern Boundary: In developing a Sphere of Influence for the City of Dublin, the starting p ace is Resolution No. 81-41 (Exhibit I) which adopted a Sphere of Influence for the City of Pleasanton on October 15, 1981 . The Commission in its findings in that resolution stated "If the Dublin incorporation proceedings are successful , the new Sphere of Influence for Dublin would be adopted for the area north of I-580" and "the area north of I-580 are generally reserved for the new Sphere of Influence and development in the area south of I-580 be limited to those that can be served by the City of Pleasanton." On this basis, the staff recommends that the Sphere of Influence for the City of Dublin be limited to that area north of I-580. This determination is made pursuant primarily to Item 9 in Criteria where one of the considerations for a Sphere of Influence boundaries is manmade barriers such as freeway, major streets, railroads, etc. I-580 is a well established line that can be understood by everyone and is a major barrier to free access to the other side.. If this line is not established as the dividing line between the City of Dublin and the City of Pleasanton, consideration should be given to that area east of Tassajara Road and north of the freeway that might be better served by the City of Pleasanton than the City of Dublin. At this point in time, the Camp Parks Military Installation and the County property may be an insurmountable barrier for the City to provide services to that area east of Tassajara. The City of Pleasanton appears by its official resolution to indicate that it does not wish to serve the area north of the freeway and. therefore it is reasonable to include it in the Dublin Sphere of Influence. -3- Eastern Boundary: The eastern boundary for the Sphere of Influence is recommended to be the old line between the Murray and Pleasanton Townships or the Livermore and Pleasanton Judicial Districts. This boundary is more precisely delineated on Exhibit VI . It proceeds northerly along Croak Road and up to the base line between Townships 34 and 27 and extends westerly to Tassajara Road and following the boundary of the Santa Rita County Property and then northerly to the County line along the Camp Parks boundary. This includes the flat, developable land between Tassajara Road and Croak Road and certain of the lower foothill area but does not include the higher areas on further north. It excludes the Tassajara Creek Regional Park. This Regional Park was given to the East Bay Regional Park District by the Federal Government. The Army is now in the process of attempting to regain this facility. If the Army is successful in its endeavor, it will be added to the military reservation and not open for any development. Western Boundary: The proposed western boundary for the Sphere of Influence is e oun ary a ween the Livermore-Pleasanton Judicial District and the San Leandro-Hayward Judicial District. This line was originally established as the dividing line between the Murray and the Eden Townships. It was originally described at the ridgeline or divide between the Amador Valley and Castro Valley. This line is a well established and understood one and is the boundary between the Murray School District and the Castro Valley Unified School District, the eastern boundary for Eden Township Hospital District, and Hayward Area Recreation and Park District and with minor exceptions, the boundary between Zone 7 and Zone 2 of the Flood Control District. Development in any area westerly of the existing City boundary except for the Nielsen Annexation to the DSRSD would be problematical since there is considerable public pressure to keep the ridgelands open. In any event, development in Eden and Hollis Canyon, or Palomares Canyon would look to the Eden Township agencies for service. At the present time, these areas are in no Sphere of Influence because they are shown in the County' s General Plan as agricultural and open space. It should be. noted that the long narrow appendage of the City of Hayward is not within the Hayward Sphere of Influence. Agricultural Preserves: The Commission generally considers that areas that are in agricultural preserves should remain outside of urban Spheres of Influence. Exhibit VII shows the agricultural preserve involved in the areas under consideration. You will note that the Sphere of Influence on both the east and the west side include areas that are within the agricultural preserve. Further extension of the Sphere into these areas would not be appropriate. The area south of 580 and north of the City of Hayward and outside of the existing Pleasanton Sphere of Influence should not be considered in any Sphere of Influence at this time. This is primarily ridgelands and included in the County' s Open Space Plan. Application of Guidelines Section 54774 of the Government Code in listing the eight factors to be considered by the Commission states that a written statement of its findings with respect to each of the factors should be made. 1. The maximum possible service area of the agency based upon the present and possible service capabilities of the agency. -4- 2. The range of service the agency is providing or could provide. If taken in combination of both the services district and the city, a full range of municipal or urban services are provided or could be provided to the recom- mended area. A proposal to develop an area west of the City has already been commenced by an annexation to the Community Services District. Before development can take place, it should be annexed to the City. Since it is not anticipated that there would be a great deal of development on further west to the Sphere of Influence boundary, the provision of services would be minimal . It would become increasingly difficult and expensive for the City to provide services for the area beyond the recommended Sphere of Influence line. Drainage for sewer and water services are to the west down to Castro +; Valley and Oro Loma Sanitary Districts and the City of Hayward. Municipal services in the area would more logically come from the west from the existing Eden Township Special Districts or the City of Hayward. The area to the east of Tassajara Road could be provided with sewer and water services. Fire services would be more difficult unless there is a development within the Camp Parks and Santa Rita area that could help support a Fire Station. It is my understanding the City has not assumed the fire protection responsibilities for those areas within the City that are not within the Community Services District. Law enforcement services would not be a problem so long as the City continues to contract with the Sheriff for services. However, the area east of Tassajara Road would be more logically served from County Substations rather than from the City Police Headquarters. The projected future population growth of the area any area further east from the proposed Sphere of Influence line could probably be the more logically served by the City of Livermore than the City of Dublin. The area south of the freeway and west of Pleasanton is not planned for development. Those areas that are within the Pleasanton Sphere of Influence should look to the City of Pleasanton for services. 3. The projected future population growth of the area can be accommodated within the existing Spheres of Influence of the three cities and the area excluded from the existing spheres is generally planned for agricultural and open space and therefore should not be included in any future population growth plans. 4. The type of development occurring or planned for the area including but not limited to residential , commercial and industrial development. The area within the Sphere of Influence is generally planned for either residential on the immediate west and commercial-industrial on the area east of Tassajara Road. Industrial or commercial development on a portion of the County property (Santa Rita) may be included in future plans of the County and City. That area included in the City request but outside the recommended Sphere of Influence is generally planned for open space and agricultural and therefore should not be included in any Sphere of Influence. 5. Present and probable future service needs of the area included within the recommended Sphere of Influence will need the full range of municipal services if they are to be developed. The areas outside of the proposed Sphere of Influence are generally reserved for agricultural and open space and have no present or probable future need for urban services. -5- 6. Local geovernmental agencies presently providing services to such area and present level , range and adequacy of services provided by such existing local governmental agencies. As already stated, the City of Dublin provides only part of the municipal services as are required for an urban area. The other part are provided by DSRSD. It is difficult to operate a municipal agency and make proper land use plans when major parts of the services required to implement those plans are under the control and jurisdiction of another independent agency. Adequate control of land use planning cannot be implemented by the City until they control all of the services affected by it. This will mean a governmental reorganization in the area realigning service responsibilities. 7. The existence of social and economic interdependence and interaction would bring the area within the boundary of a local governmental agency and the area which surrounds it and which could be considered within the agency' s Sphere of Influence. The proposed Sphere of Influence takes into considera- tion the surrounding cities and districts and attempts to delineate an area that should be served by the City of Dublin. Areas served by other special districts have generally been excluded from this area. The proposed western boundary is the boundary for a considerable number of districts in Eden Township. This boundary is also the boundary for the local unified high school district. The boundary on the east extends beyond the existing school district boundary but the old township line is a logical dividing point. 8. The existence of agricultural preserves in the area which could be considered within a Sphere of Influence and affect on maintaining the physical , economic integrity of such preserves in the event that such preserves are within the Sphere of Influence of a local governmental agency. The recommended Sphere attempts to provide for the developable areas to be within the City and to exclude as much of the agricultural preserve from the City as possible. The boundaries of the Sphere on the west and the northeast are generally in agricultural preserves. The intrusion of agricultural preserve -is acceptable to provide for greater continuity of boundary and recognize community of interest. Dublin San Ramon Services District Factor No. 6 speaks to local governmental agencies in the area and the question of the future of Dublin San Ramon Services District should be discussed. It is recommended that the Commission find that the Dublin San Ramon Community Services District Sphere of Influence is dependent upon the City' s Sphere of Influence. It is recommended that the Commission urge at an early date reorganization of governmental agencies within the sphere by a review of the status of the community services district. The community services district is now operational in the Cities fo Dublin and San Ramon. It would seem that it is now timely for the two cities to consider a reorganization and dissolution of the district. A means of commencing this process is that one or both of the two cities request a reorganization. -6- With the exception of the liquid waste disposal , this would not be a complicated r issue. The District has been involved in litigation with the City of Pleasanton, the Volk-McClain interests relative to sewer capacity and reimbursement agreements. Those issues appear to be resolved. The treatment plant serves not only the Cities of Dublin and San Ramon as part of DSRSD but also the City of Pleasanton. Procedures have been commenced to include areas outside of either of the three . cities, Castlewood area. The two cities through DSRSD and the City of Pleasanton are part of the joint powers agency that constructed and operates the outfall . pipeline to the Bay. One proposed reorganization would be to (1 ) Dissolve DSRSD. Transfer all services of the District to the two cities except liquid waste disposal ; (2) establish a sanitation district to provide liquid waste disposal . This new district could assume all of the rights and obligations of DSRSD as it relates to sewage disposal . The District could include Pleasanton. The major difference between a sanitation district and the present community services i district or a sanitlary district is that its governing body would not be elected but would be made up of agencies involved in the district. Further study by a reorganization Commission might develop other solutions. Although there are many details to be worked out in such an action, the establish- ment of a reorganization committee involving the two cities and the district and the two local agency formation Commissions, a precise plan for accomplishing this reorganization could be developed. CEQA Review The Commission has always considered a Sphere of Influence report was a "project" under the CEQA definitions. State-wide there is no concensus as to whether to Sphere of Influence reports require an environmental impact report. The later reviews of Sphere of Influence actions by the Commission have been proceeded by an Initial Study by the Planning Department resulting in a Negative Declaration. The Initial Study has been completed and a Negative Declaration is proposed for the recommended Sphere of Influence. It is expected that if any development be guided by this Sphere of Influence report, an initial study of that development would indicate whether or not an Environmental Impact Report would be required. Summary and Recomendation. The guidelines established by the Commission and the factors provided for in the State Law as applied to the City of Dublin indicates a recommended Sphere as outlined on Exhibit VIII . 1. This Sphere is generally bounded on the north by the County line, on'the west by the Livermore-Pleasanton Judicial District line, on the south by I-580, on the east by Croak Road and an extension of the old Pleasanton Judicial District line to a line between Townships 34 and 27 westerly to Tassajara Road and then follow the westerly boundary of the Tassajara Creek Regional Park (Exhibit VIII ) . 2. The Commission establish a coterminus Sphere of Influence for the Dublin San Ramon Community Services District. 3. The Commission urge the Cities of Dublin and San Ramon to commence proceedings for the reorganization of the Dublin San Ramon Community Services District. -7- November 1, 1983 Lt. Colonel Clark, Post Commander Parks Reserve Forces Training Area P. O. Box DD J Dublin, CA 94568 i Dear. Lt. Colonel Mark: As you know, the City is interested in expanding its present boundaries to the east in the future.- The City of Dublin has had conversations with property owners east of Tasajara Road who are interested in future annexation to the City of Dublin. In order for the City of Dublin to be able to provide services to future development in this area, it would be necessary for the City to have a direct street access through Parks Reserve Forces Training Area to the lands to the east. In addition, the City would also be required -to annex either all of Parks Reserve Forces Training Area or a portion, in order that the City' s boundaries would be contiguous to lands to the east of Parks Reserve Forces Training Area for future annexation. Therefore, I would like to respectfully request that the United States Army indicate whether or not it would permit the development of a City street by the City of Dublin through the southern end of the Parks Reserve Forces Training Area property. I would further like to request that the Army support the concept of future annexation by the City. I would appreciate it if you could give me an indication as to whether or not you, as the Post Commander, support these two concepts and would be. willing to forward the City' s request to The Presidio. In the meantime, if you- have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Peter W.

As we have discussed and you are aware, I do not have the authority to approve such a request. I have included my recommendation that the matter receive careful considera- tion for some type of accommodation in view of the fine spirit of cooperation and understanding that has existed between the City and the Army. Sincerely, ichael E. Mark Lieutenant Colonel, U.S. Army Post Commander CITY OF DUBLIN P.O. Box 2340 Dublin, CA 94568 (415) 829-4600 October 24 , 1983 Dear Property Owner : As you may be aware, the City of Dublin was incorporated in February, 1982 . Since the City ' s incorporation, the City' s Planning Commission and City Council have met to discuss the potential growth of the City of Dublin beyond its present boundaries . At its meeting of March 28 , 1983 , the Dublin City Council established its planning area boundary and requested the Local Agency Formation Commission of the County of Alameda to develop a sphere of influence for the City of Dublin which is coexistent with the planning area boundaries adopted by the City. A map indicating the proposed sphere of influence and the City' s planning area boundaries is attached for your information. Since your property is included within the City' s planning area boundary and within the City ' s proposed sphere of influence, the City would like to solicit an indication of support from you with respect to the City ' s proposed Sphere of Influence. Since you may not be familiar with terms such as planning area boundary or sphere of influence, I would like to take this opportunity to explain their meaning. Present California state law requires cities in California to prepare a general plan for the future physical development of the city. This general plan must cover the city and any land outside the city ' s boundaries which may affect the city' s planning. Since planning concerns do not always follow political boundaries, the "planning area" of the general plan may extend as far as necessary to include all areas of planning concern. In summary, the City of Dublin ' s planning area is that area in which the City of Dublin has concern over the types of development activities which may or may not occur. A city ' s "sphere of influence" is a plan for the future boundaries and service area of the city. It is a statement by the city that it is able and willing to serve those areas within the sphere of influence at such time that they should be annexed to the city. Under existing state law, the Alameda County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) must adopt a sphere of influence for the City of Dublin. This sphere of influence will be one of several factors which LAFCO must consider in the future in making annexation decisions . The sphere of influence does not guarantee annexation or land use control of the property by the city. It is the position of the Dublin City Council that it is the most logical entity to provide municipal services to your property over the long term and further, intends to work together with you and those other property owners within the proposed sphere to accomplish that end. If you concur, the City would appreciate your attendance and support at the City of Dublin ' s proposed sphere of influence at the Alameda County Local Agency Formation Commission hearing on Thursday, November 17 , 1983 at 4 : 00 p.m. The meeting will be held in the Planning Commission Hearing Room in the Public Works Building located at 399 Elmhurst Drive, Hayward, California. If you cannot attend the hearing, the City would appreciate a letter of support of the City ' s sphere of influence . The City would also appreciate it if ' you would complete the attached survey form with the self- addressed stamped envelope and return it to the City Offices. i i In the meantime, if you have any questions regarding the City of j Dublin ' s proposed sphere of influence, please feel free to contact me or the City Manager at ( 415 ) 829-4600 .
