Open Public Hearing Receive Staff Presentation Receive Public Testimony Close Public Hearing Deliberate Waive Reading and Introduce Ordinance to Establish a modified Right-of-Way Line for St. Patrick Way FINANCIAL STATEMENT: No financial impact is anticipated at this time. Costs for acquisition 0f the land would be negotiated with the property owners at such time as the City funds this project through its Capital Improvement Program. DESCRIPTION: The City is processing a minor revision to the established alignment for the portion of St. Patrick Way between Golden Gate Drive and Regional Street. The original alignment was approved by the City Council on October 10, 1988, via Ordinance No. 19-88. Because the City is in the process of reviewing development plans for properties that are proposed to be served by the St. Patrick Way extension, and in order to a~commodate all current and future uses by surrounding properties, a modification to the alignment is being proposed. BACKGROUND: The Circulation Plan for the Dublin Downtown Specific Plan adopted in 1987 recommended changes to improve circulation in the downtown area. One such improvement was a new street parallel to and south of Dublin Boulevard, connecting Amador Plaza Road to Regional Street. On October 10, 1988, the City COPIES TO: Affected Property Owners G:\DEVELOP\Cor-O-Van sitekagst_establish row St Patrick Wy. doc ITEM NO. Council via Ordinance No. 19-88, established right-of-way lines for the new Parallel Road (noTM known as St. Patrick Way) between Amador Plaza Road and Regional Street. The 68-foot right-of-way plan line accommodated two 12-foot-wide travel lanes, one 12-foot-wide center two-way left-mm lane, an 8,foot- wide parking area on one side, and an 8-foot-wide sidewalk on both sides. On February 24, 1996, the City Council authorized a study to consider realigning the St. Patrick Way fight-of-way line between Regional Street and Golden Gate Drive. The study was perfOrmed at the request of Lincoln Properties, the owners of the shopping center to the north of the proposed road, in order to provide an area for future construction of loading docks behind the shopping center. The realignment of the established fight-of-way line for St. Patrick Way between Regional Street and Golden Gate Drive was apProved by the Planning Commission on September 24, 1996, and was presented to the City Council on December 4, 1996. The City Council did not take action on the project because the property owners withdrew the request for realignment and registered opposition to the road, realigned or not. The existing alignment, approved in 1988,' remained. As part of the southbound 1-580/1-680 Interchange Fly-Over ImProvement Project in 1998, the Department of Transportation (CalTrans) constructed a new southbound 1-680 on-ramp and off-ramp at Amador Plaza Road/St. Patrick Way, and also constructed the segment of St. Patrick Way from Amador Plaza Road to Golden Gate Drive within the adopted right-of-way plan line for St. Patrick Way. This segment of St. Patrick Way is therefore complete, so no further action by the City is necessary. The City Council adopted the West Dublin BART Specific Plan on December 19, 2000, which affirmed the need for the extension of St. Patrick Way between Golden Gate Drive and Regional Street. The land uses permitted in the Specific Plan rely on access to St. Patrick Way between Golden Gate Drive and Regional Street, including the proposed West Dublin BART/Orix and AMB/Legacy Partners (Cor-O-Van) developments that are currently under review. To address past concerns regarding the adopted tight-of- way alignment, as articulated by Lincoln Properties in 1996, the BART and AMB/Legacy developers assumed a right-of-way alignment that is consistent with the 1996 proposal. Since the 1996 proposal differs slightly from the alignment originally adopted in 1988, a modified alignment must now be established. ISSUES: Establishment of Right-of-Way Line: The procedure for adopting a new roadway alignment is governed by Chapter 7.68 of the Dublin Municipal Code and by the Government Code. Government Code §65402 requires that property reserved for street purposes be in conformance with an adopted General Plan by the Planning Commission. Upon receiving a report and recommendation from the Planning Commission, the City Council can then, pursuant to the Municipal Code, adopt a Resolution of Intention designating the establishment of the right-of-way, thus notifying interested parties. A public heating must subsequently be conducted to allow the City CounCil to hear testimony related to said establishment of fight-of-way line. Finally, the City Council can adopt an Ordinance establishing the tight-of-way line described in the Resolution, if appropriate, and have the Ordinance recorded with the County Recorder. Planning COmmission: The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed modified fight-of-way for St. Patrick Way at its meeting on November 12, 2003, and adopted Resolution No. 03-53, affirming that the revised alignment is in conformance with the City of Dublin General Plan. The Planning Commission also approved an Page 2 ~v~'~ Addendum to the Mitigated Negative Declaration for the revised alignment, and recommended that the City Council adopt a Resolution of Intention to establish a revised Right-of-Way Line for St. Patrick Way. Resolution of Intention: A Resolution of Intention was adopted via City Council Resolution No. 226-03 on November 18, 2003, that set December 2, 2003, as the date for the first of two protest hearings. Said resolution was also published and posted along the street where the right-of-way lines are proposed as required by the Municipal Code to give interested parties notice of the first reading of the proposed Ordinance. Analysis: St. Patrick Way is identified as a major east-west road serving downtown Dublin as a connection to [-680 on/off ramps, allowing development of surrounding land uses per the West Dublin BART Specific Plan. The proposed alignment is generally consistent with the alignment proposed by the property owners in 1996, except that the width has been expanded 3 feet to the north along the approach to Regional Street to avoid the creation of an unusable remnant parcel. The ultimate right-of-way width for St. Patrick Way will therefore vary between 68 feet at the east end and 71 feet at the west end. The ultimate section will consist of two 12-foot-wide travel lanes, a 12-foot-wide center two-way left-turn lane, an 8-foot-wide parking strip on the south side, and sidewalks that vary between 6 feet and 11 feet on both sides of the street. The St. Patrick Way improvements will assure safe and convenient access to abutting properties. The design will be based on a 25 mile per hour speed limit. Public Comment Requirements: The establishment of right-of-way lines is regulated by Chapter 7.68 of the Municipal Code. The Code allows any person with an interest in land affected by the proposed right-of-way alignment to file with the City Clerk a written objection, provided said objection is received prior to the Council's consideration of the alignment. The City Council shall hear all protests or objections filed, and then choose to sustain the objections and abandon the proceedings, deny the objections and by Ordinance establish said right-of-way lines, or offer changes and modifications as it shall determine proper. If adopted, the City Clerk shall record the Ordinance with the County Recorder. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council (1) Open the Public Hearing, (2) Receive Staff Presentation, (3) Receive Public Testimony, (4) Close the Public Hearing, (5) Deliberate, and (6) Waive the reading and introduce the Ordinance to'establish a modified Right-of-Way Line for St. Patrick Way between Golden Gate Drive and Regional Street.
