ORDINANCE NO. 11 - 21
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN
AMENDING THE ZONING MAP AND APPROVING A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ZONING
DISTRICT WITH RELATED STAGE 2 DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND CEQA FINDINGS FOR
THE EAST RANCH PROJECT
PLPA 2020-00028
(APNs 905-0002-001-01 and 905-0002-002-00)
The Dublin City Council does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. RECITALS
A. The East Ranch Project site is located in the Fallon Village Project area. Through Ordinance
No. 32-05, the City Council adopted a Stage 1 Planned Development Rezone Amendment
for the Fallon Village Project area which, among other approvals, established the maximum
number of residential units at 3,108 units.
B. The Applicant, Trumark Homes, is requesting a Planned Development Zoning Stage 2
Development Plan. The proposed Project includes up to 573 residential units, two public
parks with one 5.5-acre park at the northwest corner and one 6.0 -acre park south of the
project’s main entry, a 2.0-acre Public/Semi-Public site and 6.6 acres of open space.
Requested land use approvals include Planned Development Zoning Stage 2 Development
Plan, Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 8563, and a Heritage Tree Removal Permit among
other related actions. These planning and implementing actions are collectively known as
the “East Ranch Project” or the “Project.”
C. The 165.5-acre Project site (APN 905 -0002-002-00 and 905 -0002-001-01) is located in
eastern Dublin, directly east of the Jordan Ranch development and south of Positano
development, straddling the existing Croak Road.
D. To comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), together with the CEQA
Guidelines and City of Dublin CEQA Guidelines and Procedures, the City prepared a CEQA
Analysis in Support of a Specific Plan Exemption (“CEQA Analysis”).
E. Following a public hearing on November 9, 2021, the Planning Commission adopted
Resolution No. 21-08, recommending approval of the East Ranch Project, which resolution
is incorporated herein by reference and available for review at City Hall during normal
business hours.
F. A Staff Report dated December 7, 2021, and incorporated herein by reference with all
attachments, described and analyzed the Project, including the Planned Development
Zoning Stage 2 Development Plan, for the City Council.
G. The City Council considered the CEQA Analysis, including the EDSP EIRs, prior related
CEQA Documents, all above referenced reports, recommendations, and testimony prior to
taking action on the Project.
Ord. No. 11-21, Item 4.6, Adopted 12/21/2021 Page 2 of 27
SECTION 2: FINDINGS
A. Pursuant to Section 8.32.070 of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds as follows.
1. The East Ranch Project (“the Project”) Planned Development zoning meets the purpose
and intent of Chapter 8.32 in that it provides a comprehensive development plan that is
consistent with the General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan and protects the
integrity and character of the area by creating a desirable use of land that is sensitive
to surrounding land uses by virtue of the layout and design of the site plan. The Project
is planned comprehensively and will follow development standards tailored to the
specific needs of the site. These standards will address issues such as building
setbacks, architecture, landscaping and grading. The proposed community will blend
with the natural features unique to the site through the use of design and planning. The
Applicant proposes residential, park, open space, rural residential, and public/semi-
public uses which are consistent with the land use designations in the Dublin General
Plan and the provisions and regulations for development set forth therein. The Project
proposes six residential neighborhood that are consistent with the use and density of
the surrounding areas, the General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. The
Applicant will participate in the development of the necessary utility and circulation
infrastructure for this development in conformance with the Eastern Dublin Specific
Plan. The Project will be designed to address the uniqueness of the Specific Plan area,
taking into account the proximity of the surrounding topography. The clustering of
residential units will allow for continuity of open space area and more effective utilization
of the property.
2. Development of the Project under the Planned Development zoning will be harmonious
and compatible with existing and future development in the surrounding area in that the
site will provide a mix of housing types and public amenities for the development. The
Project site is in an area that has similar uses nearby and will tie into the existing street
network.
B. Pursuant to Sections 8.120.050.A and B of the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds
as follows.
1. The Planned Development zoning for the Project will be harmonious and compatible
with existing and potential development in the surrounding area in that the proposed
site plan has taken into account adjacent land uses and will provide a wide range of
amenities to and for the community within the development and the surrounding
neighborhoods. The Project is consistent with the surrounding land uses and has been
approved for residential development in the Stage I Planned Development.
2. The Project site conditions were documented in the EDSP EIRs and CEQA Analysis
that have been prepared, and the environmental impacts that have been identified will
be mitigated to the greatest degree possible. There are no site challenges that were
identified in the EIR, which could not be mitigated, that will present an impediment to
utilization of the site for the intended purposes. The site is a hillside development and
generally slopes from the north east corner to the Croak Road and Central Parkway
intersection. The denser development has been proposed to be in the flatter areas of
the site, while the more conventional single -family homes have been located in areas
Ord. No. 11-21, Item 4.6, Adopted 12/21/2021 Page 3 of 27
that take advantage of the grade and step with the hillside. The grading proposed for
the Project will take into consideration the hilly terrain and will be designed to avoid
excessive cuts and fills.
3. The Planned Development zoning is consistent with the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan
policies and the City’s Zoning Ordinances enacted for the public health, safety and
welfare. The Project will not adversely affect the health or safety of persons residing or
working in the vicinity or will it be detrimental to public health, safety or welfare. The
Project will comply with all applicable development regulations and standards and will
implement all adopted mitigation measures. Additionally, no noxious odors, hazardous
materials, or excessive noises will be produced. In order to ensure adequate
emergency vehicle access to all portions of the site, access is provided to the site from
Croak Road.
4. The Planned Development zoning is consistent with and in conformance with the Dublin
General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan in that the proposed residential, open
space, park and semi-public uses are consistent with the existing land use designations
for the site.
C. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the City Council finds as follows:
1. The project is found to be exempt from CEQA pursuant to Government Code section
65457 for residential projects that are consistent with a Specific Plan. Prior CEQA
analysis for the Project area includes: 1) the Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment
and Specific Plan EIR (1993); 2) the East Dublin Properties Stage 1 Development Plan
and Annexation Supplemental EIR (2002); and 3) the Fallon Village Supplemental EIR
(2005). Collectively, these three environmental review documents are referred to as the
“EDSP EIRs.” The CEQA Analysis prepared for the Project determined that the
proposed project qualifies for an exemption from CEQA under Government Code
Section 65457 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15182(c), which exempts residential
projects that are consistent with a specific plan for which an EIR has been certified. The
proposed project is consistent with the EDSP EIRs and the General Plan and Eastern
Dublin Specific Plan land use designations for the project site. There is no part of the
proposed project that triggers the need to prepare a subsequent EIR or negative
declaration pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 or Public Resources Code
Section 21166. Therefore, the project qualifies for a specific plan exemption and does
not require subsequent environmental review or the preparation of an additional CEQA
document.
SECTION 3: ZONING MAP AMENDMENT
Pursuant to Chapter 8.32, Title 8 of the City of Dublin Municipal Code , the City of Dublin Zoning
Map is amended to zone the property described below to a Planned Development Zoning District :

6. Architectural Standards. The architecture of the development within East Ranch is
characterized by high-quality design homes that promote both visual compatibility and variety.
The architectural standards are organized into two sections: Architectural Components and
Architectural Styles. These standards express desired design character, which in combination
with the Preliminary Landscape Plan, conveys the overall East Ranch agrarian character and
provides a pedestrian friendly community of neighborhoods. These guidelines and the graphic
representations contained herein are for conceptual purposes only. Gu idelines with the term
Ord. No. 11-21, Item 4.6, Adopted 12/21/2021 Page 16 of 27
“shall” are required and to be implemented, and guidelines with the term “should” are highly
recommended.

Ord. No. 11-21, Item 4.6, Adopted 12/21/2021 Page 18 of 27
Architectural Styles
The architectural styles of East Ranch draw from the project site’s agrarian setting of the rolling
hills and its relationship to the surrounding area and existing residential neighborhoods. The
following four architectural styles identified for East Ranch are a mixture of traditional and
contemporary styles offering variation, under the Agrarian and California style umbrella, to
create interesting streetscapes:
• Traditional Farmhouse
• Modern Farmhouse
• California Revival
• Contemporary

Ord. No. 11-21, Item 4.6, Adopted 12/21/2021 Page 22 of 27
7. Preliminary Landscaping Plan. East Ranch emphasis is on getting outdoors and connecting
with nature through the incorporation of neighborhood parks, pocket parks, multi-use trails,
Ord. No. 11-21, Item 4.6, Adopted 12/21/2021 Page 23 of 27
restful overlooks and meandering footpaths that weave together the neighborhoods which
culminate in a series of public and semi-public outdoor spaces. The landscape character
defines the sense of place as refined yet rustic arcadian California. Materials and elements
such as Mediterranean planting, low stone walls, a variety of fencing (good neighbor, split rail,
view and open space), and rhythmic planting patterns will embellish an agrarian tone.
Basic Design Principles:
• The landscape design including the plant palette and design themes, shall be
complimentary to the architecture in each neighborhood, unique to the neighborhood
and also use design themes that tie the entire East Ranch community together.
• The streetscape and pathway network will provide recreation opportunity and reinforce
a connection to nature.
• The community fencing and wall system will be designed to visually recede into the
setting to the extent possible.
• Management of open space and maintenance of common areas will be an integral
component of the landscape system.
• Plant material shall be consistent selected appropriately for location and microclimate.
Provide a combination of evergreen, deciduous and flowering trees.
• Street trees shall be deciduous to demonstrate the seasons and patterns of nature. The
street trees will be used to define the neighborhoods. Re fer to conceptual tree plan
below.
Conceptual Street Tree Plan
Ord. No. 11-21, Item 4.6, Adopted 12/21/2021 Page 24 of 27
• The community is designed around four primary landscape features:
o The Main and Secondary Community Entries. The Main Community Entry is the
formal announcement of arrival to the East Ranch community. The Secondary
Community Entries will be reminiscent of the Primary Entry overall character. They
will be of a smaller scale but consist of similar materials and components.
o The Water Quality Bains. The Water Quality Basins are a prominent feature at the
arrival point to the community. The plant material found within will take on a mosaic
effect that demonstrates the bloom and growth cycles of seasonal grasses in gentle
patterns and large swaths. All plant material found within the basins shall conform
with the Alameda County C.3 Stormwater Technical guidelines and requirements.
o The Main Spine (Croak Road). The Main Spine of Croak Road connects the greater
East Ranch community with its allee and greenbelt. The northern and southern
parks bookend the community and are connected via this spine.
o Northern and Southern Parks. East Ranch includes two neighborhood parks. The
Northern and Southern Parks are recreation hubs for the East Ranch community
and greater neighborhood. They anchor each end of the main spine along Croak
Road and complete a central green corridor.
Northern Park:
Natural in its look and feel sitting just
south of the riparian corridor, the
Northern Park’s proximity to the
existing open space trail system is
one of its most important features.
The park completes the connection to
Jordan Ranch and Positano
neighborhoods and allows
pedestrians from East Ranch a safe
and easy way to access the greater
Dublin trail network. The northern
edge of the park has a fair amount of
topography will remain natural and
provide a gentle transition to the
existing adjacent area. The more
active areas of the park will include
restrooms, tot lot and toddler play
areas, BBQ area with shade
structures and a fenced dog park with
two separate areas for small and
large dogs with their own respective
entries. The overall park theming will
take cues from the surrounding
architecture of the community and is
geared toward smaller groups, kids,
and families. The following is a
conceptual image of the Northern
Park.
Ord. No. 11-21, Item 4.6, Adopted 12/21/2021 Page 25 of 27
Southern Park:
The Southern Park serves as a
gateway into the East Ranch
community. Being centrally
located and the open space
anchor to the community, the
programming for this park will
include elements that appeal to a
wide range of ages and mobilities.
Those elements include a large
central green space, perimeter
trail system, basketball court,
pickleball courts, tennis courts,
bocce courts, tot lot and toddler
play areas, picnic areas with
shade structures and restrooms.
The overall look of this open space
area will work to solidify that rural
agrarian character the community
is built upon. The following is a
conceptual image of the Southern
Park.
8. Phasing Plan. The project is to be developed in two phases for the backbone streets and
infrastructure and two phases for the development as shown the phasing plan below.
Ord. No. 11-21, Item 4.6, Adopted 12/21/2021 Page 26 of 27
9. Inclusionary Zoning Regulations. The Project is subject to the Inclusionary Zoning
Regulations (Chapter 8.68) for the provision of afforda ble housing as a residential
development of 20 units or more. The City’s Regulations also allow for exceptions commonly
referred to as an “alternative method of compliance.” These exceptions include the payment
of fees in lieu of constructing affordable un its, construction of off-site housing projects, land
dedication, etc.
The inclusionary housing requirement is 72 (71.6) units and will be satisfied as follows:
• In-Lieu Fee: 35% (25 units) to be satisfied via payment of an “In-Lieu Fee” as
provided by the City’s fee schedule.
