In September 2005, the City Council was presented with the project known as Sorrento at Dublin Ranch
Area F East and Area F West (PA 04-042) (see Vicinity Map - Attachment 2). The 124.8-acre combined
area is generally located south of the proposed extension of Gleason Drive, north of the extension of

separated by the proposed extension of Grafton Street. Area F East is approximately 80 acres and Area F
West (See map - Attachment 3) is approximately 45 acres.
Sorrento at Dublin Ranch Area F West is proposed to be developed with approximately 423 units in five
neighborhoods along with a 2.0-acre Neighborhood Square, private recreation areas, public
improvements, and an open space corridor/multi-use trail system.
The Eastern Dublin Specific Plan requires all new development to be subject to a development agreement.
Staff and the developer have prepared the proposed Development Agreement (Exhibit A to the
Ordinance) for Sorrento at Dublin Ranch Area F West. The parties to the proposed Development
Agreement are the City of Dublin and Sorrento Dublin Ranch I, L. P., a limited partnership associated
with the Applicant, Toll Brothers Inc. which currently has acquired the property from the Lin Family.
Since Area F West and Area F East are proposed to be developed as separate phases, the developer is
requesting approval of the Development Agreement for Area F West, only, at this time. A second
Development Agreement for Area F East will be prepared and presented for approval at a later date.
Plannine Commission Hearine
At its meeting of December 13, 2005, the Planning Commission held a public hearing and unanimously
adopted Resolution No. 05-64 (Attachment 4) recommending that the City Council adopt an Ordinance
approving the proposed Development Agreement. A copy of the Planning Commission staff report for
the meeting of December 13,2005 is attached for City Council reference (Attachment 5).
ANALYSIS:
Development Agreements are required of all applicants for development within the Eastern Dublin
Specific Plan (EDSP) area. They are allowed by local government under California Government Code
SS 65864 et seq. and authorized by Chapter 8.56 of the Dublin Municipal Code (hereafter "Chapter
8.56"). Through the Development Agreement, the City and any person having a legal or equitable interest
in such real property agree on the development of the property while establishing certain development
rights and obligations that implement the EDSP. The Development Agreement must be approved by the
City Council prior to recordation of the final Tract Map and issuance of building permits for the
development of the property. Development Agreements are approved by an ordinance of the City Council
following a recommendation by the Planning Commission.
A Development Agreement for Sorrento at Dublin Ranch Area F was not included in the items presented
to the City Council at the time of the public hearing for the requested project approvals. Therefore, in
accordance with the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, the current request is for a Development Agreement
between the City of Dublin and Sorrento Dublin Ranch I, L. P. (Exhibit A to the proposed Ordinance).
The Development Agreement was drafted with input from City Staff, the Project Applicant, Property
Owner, and the City Attorney based on the standard Development Agreement prepared by the City
Attorney and adopted by the City Council for projects located within the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan
area, and more specifically Dublin Ranch. Since the Development Agreement runs with the land, the
rights thereunder can be assigned with authority for approval of such requests for transfer or assignment
delegated to the City Manager (Section 17 of the Development Agreement).
The Development Agreement provides security to the developer that the City will not change its zoning
and other laws applicable to the project for a period of five years. The City also benefits from entering
into the Development Agreement with the property owner. This document is a contract that establishes
obligations for meeting the goals of the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan and guarantees timing for
construction of public infrastructure and facilities for the project area. Additionally, it ensures that
dedications of property and easements are made, project phasing is followed, the appropriate fees are paid
for the development, and any additional terms of the agreement are carried out as development proceeds.
Page 2 of 4
The proposed Development Agreement also would be consistent with the preceding development
agreements pertaining to the property and the Dublin Ranch project over all.
In return, the Developer agrees to comply with the conditions of approval and, in some cases, make
commitments for which the City might otherwise have no authority to compel the Developers to perform.
Specifically, the Development Agreement augments the City's standard development regulations; spells
out the precise financial responsibilities of the developer; ensures timely provision of adequate public
facilities for each project; and provides terms for the Developer to advance funds for specific facilities
which have community-wide or area benefit or for reimbursement, as appropriate.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
In 1993, the City Council certified an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Dublin General Plan's
Eastern Extended Planning Area and the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area, including revisions to Part I
of the Responses to Comments relating to the Kit Fox, Addendum to the DEIR dated May 4,1993, and a
DKS Associates Traffic Study dated December 15, 1992 (SCH#91103064). Collectively, these
documents comprise the "Eastern Dublin EIR." The Eastern Dublin EIR is a program EIR, which
anticipated numerous subsequent actions related to future development; it also identified some impacts
resulting from implementation that could not be mitigated. Upon certification of the EIR, the City
adopted a statement of overriding considerations for such impacts. The City also adopted a mitigation-
monitoring program, which included a series of measures intended to reduce impacts from the
implementation of the plan. The timing for implementation of these mitigation measures is summarized
in the adopted Mitigation and Monitoring Program matrix.
In 1997, the City Council approved a Negative Declaration (Resolution 140-97) which addressed an area
of approximately 453 acres in Dublin Ranch Areas B through E, including a variety of residential and
non-residential uses, as well as a community park of approximately 52 acres. For the portions of the
project within Area F, the City approved a Mitigated Negative Declaration on February 15,2000 through
Resolution 34-00 which included approximately 147 acres from other areas within Dublin Ranch,
assigned a more specific location for the community park, and proposed to relocate the residential and
commercial uses of the proposed Village Center south to Dublin Ranch Area G.
On March 16, 2004, an EIR Addendum was certified by City Council Resolution No. 43-04 pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines Section 15164. The Addendum related to PA 01-037 addressed the following: a)
General Plan Land Use Amendment; b) Eastern Area Specific Plan amendment; c) Vesting Tentative
Tract Map Nos. 7281,7282, and 7283; and d) the Site Development Review proposed. The Addendum
also included an updated traffic study. At that time it was determined that the project would cause no
environmental impacts beyond those previously identified in the Eastern Dublin EIR, the Negative
Declaration approved in 1997, and the subsequent Mitigated Negative Declaration approved in 2000.
Also, in conjunction with the Addendum prepared in 2004, the property owner has since obtained permits
from state and federal agencies for alteration of wetlands and has implemented related offsite mitigation.
It has been determined that the project proposed under application P A 04-042, which includes the
proposed Development Agreement, has been adequately addressed in the 2004 EIR Addendum and would
cause no environmental impacts beyond those previously identified and addressed.
PUBLIC NOTIFICATION:
In accordance with State law, a public notice was mailed to all property owners and occupants within 300
feet of the proposed project to advertise the project and the upcoming public hearing. A public notice was
also published in the Valley Times and posted at several locations throughout the City. To date, the City
has received no contact or objections from surrounding property owners regarding the current proposal.
Page 3 of 4
CONCLUSION:
The Development Agreement will implement the provisions of the Planned Development zoning for Area
F West, the Stage 2 Development Plan, and conditions of approval of Master Vesting Tentative Tract
Map 7641 and the five neighborhood Vesting Tentative Tract Maps previously approved (Nos. 7642,
7643, 7644, 7645 & 7646). It also is consistent with the terms and conditions established in the preceding
Development Agreements associated with this property and updates certain provisions, as needed, based
on the most current project approvals.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council: (1) Open the public hearing; (2) Receive Staff presentation and
take testimony from the Applicant and the Public; (3) Close the Public Hearing and deliberate; and (4)
Waive reading and introduce the Ordinance approving the Development Agreement between the City of
Dublin and Sorrento Dublin Ranch I, L. P. (Attachment 1).

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
In September 2005, the Planning Commission was presented with the project known as Sorrento at
Dublin Ranch Area F East and Area F West (PA 04-042) (see Vicinity Map - Attachment 2). The
124.8-acre combined area is generally located south of the proposed extension of Gleason Drive, north
of the proposed extension of Central Parkway, east of the proposed extension of Brannigan A venue, and
west of the proposed extension of Lockhart A venue and proposed community sports park. Area FEast
and Area F West are separated by the proposed extension of Grafton Street. Area F East is
approx.imately 80 acres and Area F West (See map - Attachment 3) is approximately 45 acres.
The project is subject to the requirement in the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan that all development be
pursuant to a development agreement. Staff and the developer have prepared the proposed Development
Agreement (Exhibit A to the Ordinance) for Sorrento at Dublin Ranch Area F West. The parties to the
proposed Development Agreement are the City of Dublin and Sorrento Dublin Ranch I, L. P., a limited
partnership associated with the Applicant, Toll Brothers Inc. and which subsequent to the Planning
Commission hearing took title to the property.

The developer intends to pursue Area F West and Area F East in separate phases, and therefore at this
time they are requesting approval of only the Area F West Development Agreement. A second
Development Agreement for Area F East will be prepared and brought before the Planning Commission
at a later date.
Sorrento at Dublin Ranch Area F West is proposed to be developed with approximately 423 units in five
neighborhoods along with a 2.0-acre Neighborhood Square, private recreation areas, public
improvements, and an open space corridor/multi-use trail system. (See September 13, 2005 Planning
Commission Staff Report - Attachment 4.)
ANALYSIS:
One of the implementation measures in the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan (EDSP) requires that all
Applicants for development in the EDSP area enter into a Development Agreement with the City.
California Government Code ~~ 65864 et seq. and Chapter 8.56 of the Dublin Municipal Code
(hereafter "Chapter 8.56") authorize the City to enter into an agreement for the development of real
property with any person having a legal or equitable interest in such property in order to establish certain
development rights in such property. The Development Agreement must be approved prior to
recordation of the final Tract Map and issuance of building permits for the development of the property.
A Development Agreement for Sorrento at Dublin Ranch Area F was not included in the items presented
to the Planning Commission or the City Council at the time of the public hearing for the requested
project approvals. Therefore, in accordance with the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, the current request is
for a Development Agreement between the City of Dublin and Sorrento Dublin Ranch I, L. P. If the
Planning Commission recommends approval of the proposed Development Agreement at this meeting, it
is anticipated that the item would be presented to the City Council in January 2006. Development
Agreements are approved by an ordinance of the City Council (Exhibit A) upon recommendation by the
Planning Commission.
Attachment 1 is a Planning Commission Resolution recommending City Council approval of the
proposed Development Agreement. The Development Agreement (Exhibit A to the Ordinance) was
drafted with input from City Staff, the Project Applicant, Property Owner, and the City Attorney based
on the standard Development Agreement prepared by the City Attorney and adopted by the City Council
for projects located within the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area. Since the Development Agreement
runs with the land, the rights thereunder can be assigned with authority for approval of such requests for
transfer or assignment delegated to the City Manager (Section 17 of the Development Agreement).
The Development Agreement provides security to the developer that the City will not change its zoning
and other laws applicable to the project for a period of five years. The City also benefits from entering
into the Development Agreement with the property owner. This document is a contract that establishes
obligations for meeting the goals of the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan and guarantees timing for
construction of public infrastructure and facilities for the project area. Additionally, it ensures that
dedications of property and easements are made, project phasing is followed, the appropriate fees are
paid for the development, and any additional terms of the agreement are carried out as development
proceeds. The proposed Development Agreement would also be consistent with the preceding
development agreements.
In return, the Developer agrees to comply with the conditions of approval and, in some cases, make
commitments for which the City might otherwise have no authority to compel the Developers to
perform. Specifically, the Development Agreement augments the City's standard development
regulations; spells out the precise financial responsibilities of the developer; ensures timely provision of
adequate public facilities for each project; and provides terms for the Developer to advance funds for
specific facilities which have community-wide or area benefit or for reimbursement, as appropriate.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION:
In accordance with State law, a public notice was mailed to all property owners and occupants within
300 feet of the proposed project to advertise the project and the upcoming public hearing. A public
notice was also published in the Tri- Valley Herald and posted at several locations throughout the City.
To date, the City has received no contact or objections from surrounding property owners regarding the
current proposal.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
In 1993, the City Council certified an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Dublin General Plan's
Eastern Extended Planning Area and the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area, including revisions to Part I
of the Responses to Comments relating to the Kit Fox, Addendum to the DEIR dated May 4,1993, and a
DKS Associates Traffic Study dated December 15, 1992 (SCH#91103064). Collectively, these
documents comprise the "Eastern Dublin EIR". The Eastern Dublin EIR is a program EIR, which
anticipated numerous subsequent actions related to future development; it also identified some impacts
resulting from implementation that could not be mitigated. Upon certification of the EIR, the City
adopted a statement of overriding considerations for such impacts. The City also adopted a mitigation-
monitoring program, which included a series of measures intended to reduce impacts from the
implementation of the plan. The timing for implementation of these mitigation measures is summarized
in the adopted Mitigation and Monitoring Program matrix.
In 1997, the City Council approved a Negative Declaration (Resolution 140-97) which addressed an area
of approximately 453 acres in Dublin Ranch Areas B through E, including a variety of residential and
non-residential uses, as well as a community park of approximately 42 acres. For the portions of the
project within Area F, the City approved a Mitigated Negative Declaration on February 15,2000
through Resolution 34-00 which included approximately 147 acres from other areas within Dublin
Ranch, and proposed to relocate the residential and commercial uses of the proposed Village Center
south to Dublin Ranch Area G.
On March 16,2004, an EIR Addendum was certified by City Council Resolution No. 43-04 pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines Section 15164. The Addendum related to PA 01-037 addressed the following: a)
General Plan Land Use Amendment; b) Eastern Area Specific Plan amendment; c) Vesting Tentative
Tract Map Nos. 7281, 7282, and 7283; and d) the Site Development Review proposed. The Addendum
also included an updated traffic study. At that time it was determined that the project would cause no
environmental impacts beyond those previously identified in the Eastern Dublin EIR, the Negative
Declaration approved in 1997, and the subsequent Mitigated Negative Declaration approved in 2000.
Also, in conjunction with the Addendum prepared in 2004, the property owner has since obtained
permits from state and federal agencies for alteration of wetlands and has implemented related offsite
mitigation.
It has been determined that the project proposed under application PA 04-042, which included the
proposed Development Agreement, has been adequately addressed in the 2004 EIR Addendum and
would cause no environmental impacts beyond those previously identified and addressed.
CONCLUSION:
The Development Agreement will implement the provisions of the Planned Development zoning for
Area F West, the Stage 2 Development Plan, and conditions of approval of Master Vesting Tentative
Tract Map 7641 and the five neighborhood Vesting Tentative Tract Maps previously approved (Nos.
7642, 7643, 7644, 7645 & 7646). It is also consistent with the terms and conditions established in the
preceding Development Agreements associated with this property and updates certain provisions, as
needed, based on the most current project approvals.
