DESCRIPTION As you know, the Alameda County Local Agency Formation
Commission will hold a public hearing on Thursday, November 17 , 1983 to
consider a proposed sphere of influence for the City of Dublin. 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.

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 & 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.

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.

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.

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. Snyder

Dear Mayor Snyder:
Your letter concerning the City of Dublin's interest in .street access
through Parks Reserve Forces Training Area has been forwarded to the Presidio
for their review. 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,

CITY OF DUBLIN

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 .
Since y,
Peter W. Snyder

Dear Richard:
Here is the consensus paper I drafted resulting from
our October 17 , 1983 meeting as Mayor Snyder requested for
presentation at the Alameda County LAFCO meeting on
November 17 , 1983 .
