Hear Staff Presentation Open Public Hearing Question Staff, Applicant and the Public Close Public Hearing Refer matter to Staff for further work PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Project area is approximately 1,120 acres in size and is located in an unincorporated area of Alameda County bounded by Interstate 580 (1-580) to the south and Fallon Road to the west. The Project area abuts the eastern Dublin City limit boundary. Approximately 472 acres of the Project area are included within the City's Eastern Dublin Specific Plan boundary, while the remainder is within the 1993 Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment area. The entire Project area is located within the City's General Plan Planning Area and Sphere of Influence (SOI). The Project area consists of thirteen (13) different parcels of land, under eleven (11) separate ownerships. On October 16, 2001, the City Council re-introduced the PD Prezoning ordinance and continued this item to the November 6, 2001 hearing. A number of comments were received by the Council during the October 16 public hearing, both oral and written, including an 18-page letter from the City of Livermore. Staff has met and reviewed this letter, along with other oral and written comments received on October 16. Given the extent of the concerns, which have been expressed regarding the proposed Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) and the proposed project, Staff recommends that this item be removed from consideration at this time. Staff will recirculate SEIR and return to the City Council at a later date with a recommendation regarding certification of the SEIR, approval of a Planned Development Pre-Zoning ordinance, Resolution for Reorganization Application to LAFCO, and Pre- Annexation Agreements for the Eastern Dublin Properties project. The applicant concurs with this approach. COPIES TO: Applicant(s) Property Owners PA file ITEM NO. ~ RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council open the public hearing, question staff, applicant and the public, close the public hearing, deliberate and refer the project to staff for further work, to return to the Council at a later time.
