ATTACHMENT 1
Council makes the following findings:
1. The Planned Development Zoning District and Degelopment Plan (Stage t and 2) meet the
purpose and intent of Chapter 8.32 of the Zoning Ordinance because they will provide a day care use that
is appropriate for the site, which is located within Area 3 of the San Ramon Road Specific Plan which
allows Day Care Centers with a Conditional Use Permit, and which is located near adjacent retail and
medium to high density residential land uses. The comprehensive Development Plan will be sensitive to
surrounding uses by virtue of site layout and design of the architecture and site plan; and
2. Development under the Planned Development Zoning District and Development Plan
(Stage 1 and 2) would be harmonious and compatible with existing and future development in the
surrounding areas due to site design/layout, architecture design, setback, parking and landscaping
requirements of the Planned Development Zoning District, which are adequate and have been specially
designed to fit into the existing neighborhood. The Day Care Center use is supportive of surrounding retail
and residential uses through the provision of day care and education services for adjacent residents and
children of workers in the surrounding commercial areas, and supportive of similar surrounding retail
commercial uses; and
3. The Planned Development (PD) Rezone is consistent with the general provisions, intent,
and purpose of the PD Zoning District of the Zoning Ordinance in that it contains all information required
by Section 8.32 of the Zoning Ordinance for a Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plan and accomplishes
the objectives of Section 8.32.010, A through H, of the Zoning Ordinance; and
4. The subject site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the zoning district being
proposed because it is located on relatively flat land within a developed downtown area adjacent to existing
retail commercial uses and medium to high density residential uses, was previously developed, and because
it is located adjacent to roadways which are designed to carry traffic that would be generated by the
proposed types of uses; and
5. The Planned Development Rezone will not have a substantial adverse effect on health or
safety or be substantially detrimental to the public welfare or be injurious to property or public
improvement as all applicable laws and regulations will be satisfied; and
6. The Planned Development Rezone will not overburden public services as all agencies must
commit to the availability of public services prior to the issuance of building permits as required by City
laws and regulations; and
7. The Planned Development Rezone and accompanying Conditional Use Permit and Site
Development Review, will create an attractive, efficient, and safe environment; and
8. The Planned Development Rezone will benefit the public necessity, convenience, and
general welfare; and
9. The Planned Development Rezone and accompanying Site Development Review and
Conditional Use Permit will be compatible with and enhance the general development of the area; and
10. The proposed amendment is consistent with the Retail/Office designation of the Dublin
General Plan and the proposed use types are permitted by said designation.
