PUBLIC HEARING - LANDSCAPING & LIGHTING ASSESSMENT DISTRICT 1983-2 (TRACT 4719) - LEVY OF ASSESSMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 1990-91 MaYor Moffatt opened the public hearing. Public Works Director Thompson advised that this Assessment District was formed at the request of the developer for maintenance of landscaping within Tract 4719. The original areas of maintenance included the Stagecoach Road slopes, the "interior" landscaped slopes, the "open space" slopes, and the Stagecoach Mini-Park. The open space was only included for 3 years and is no longer a part of the Assessment District. In 1989, Stagecoach Park was also removed from the District, with maintenance now being paid for by the City. Mr. Thompson advised that the District Diagram remains the same as last year. The proposed assessment for Fiscal Year 1990-91 is $44,913.96, which is the same as last year's assessment. The assessment to the single-family property owners in the Beck Development will increase from $165.46 to $181.74 per single-family home, which is still well below the $206 assessed in 1988-89.

Vonheeder, and by unanimous vote, the Council adopted RESOLUTION NO. 104 - 90 APPROVING ENGINEER'S REPORT, CONFIRMING DIAGRAM AND ASSESSMENT, AND ORDERING LEVY OF ASSESSMENT FOR LANDSCAPING & LIGHTING MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 1983-2 PUBLIC HEARING - ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 7-90 ESTABLISHING RIGHT-OF-WAY LINES FOR 2-LANE ACCESS ROAD Mayor Moffatt opened the public hearing. Senior Planner Carrington advised that Ordinance No. 7-90 which was adopted on May 29, 1990 contained an incorrect legal description related to the establishment of the right-of-way lines for the 2-lane access road connecting to the Hacienda Interchange and parallel to 1-580. A corrected Ordinance was introduced on July 9, 1990. No comments were made by the public on this issue. Mayor Moffatt closed the public hearing. On motion of Cm. Jeffery, seconded by Cm. Vonheeder, and by unanimous vote, the Council waived the reading and adopted ORDINANCE NO. 12 - 90 AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 7-90 ESTABLISHING RIGHT-OF-WAY LINES FOR 2-LANE ACCESS ROAD CONNECTING TO HACIENDA INTERCHANGE AND PARALLEL TO 1-580 * * * * TRI-VALLEY TRANSPORTATION COUNCIL'S 1990-92 WORK PROGRAM Public Works Director Thompson advised that the Tri-Valley Transportation Council was formed to coordinate common transportation issues and has proposed to prepare a comprehensive transportation plan for the Tri-Valley area. This area includes Dublin, Pleasanton, Livermore, San Ramon, Danville, and the unincorporated areas adjacent to these cities. @*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@, CM - VOL 9 - 207 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 Mr. Thompson advised that Phase One of the work program would propose to hire a consultant to complete: 1) Long Range Transportation Plan Outline; 2) Short Term Implementation Program, including funding options; and 3) Provide a Staff member to support the Tri-Valley Council and Technical Advisory Committee. Phase Two would provide a detailed transportation plan common to all the 7 agencies, including highway, arterial, bikeway, and transit facilities. This portion of the work would integrate the transportation and land uses common to all agencies and provide a list of needed improvements and a funding plan for these improvements. Contra Costa County's Measure "C" 1/2 cent sales tax for transportation includes $300,000 in planning funds for the southwestern portion of Contra Costa County. Danville and San Ramon are requesting that their portion of the funds, approximately $150,000, be assigned to the Tri-Valley Transportation Council and the "Regional Transportation Planning Committee" to perform regional route action planning, which is an overlap of the work of the Tri-Valley Council. In order for their request to be considered by Contra Costa County, the Cities of Danville and San Ramon have requested consideration of the proposed resolution prior to July 31, 1990. Mr. Thompson advised that Robert McCleary, Executive Director and Herb Moniz, San Ramon City Manager were present to answer any questions related to Contra Costa County's Measure C or the work program. Cm. Jeffery questioned if the money is for planning only. Mr. McCleary advised that they are working toward funding specific work items, or work program activities. Cm. Jeffery asked if the Tri-Valley group will be able to select the consultant. Mr. McCleary advised that they will either designate a City or the organization. Cm. Vonheeder advised that apparently Wayne Bennett was successful in explaining what is being done. Even though this is not exactly the area covered by Measure C, they are going to recognize the Tri-Valley group and are willing to acknowledge something that will end up serving all of us very well. She questioned if Eddie Peabody from Danville had finished the detailed scope of work. Mr. Thompson advised that he had spoken~to Mr. Peabody at about 5:00 p.m., this afternoon and he was still working, on it. Cm. Vonheeder advised that the rules of procedure is actually the biggest change. There will be many things that require a unanimous vote, such as the annual work program, the budget and adoption of the final plan. With regard to the work program itself, there were @*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@,@*@, CM - VOL 9 - Z08 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 concerns that we would be starting out something before we have long term goals in effect. Cm. Vonheeder advised that the wording "transportation and land use alternatives" will be changed to "transportation and land use assumptions". A presentation will actually be made to the Southwest Regional Committee. San Ramon and Danville both feel there will be absolutely no problem in getting the Tri-Valley Transportation Council designated as the Regional Transportation Planning Committee for the Measure C program. Mayor Moffatt questioned the equal cost share split and asked if this was thoroughly discussed. Cm. Vonheeder advised that several options were discussed and if you split it based on population, this creates many problems. After lengthy discussion, they ended up agreeing to split the costs 7 equal ways. On motion of Cm. Vonheeder, seconded by Cm. Jeffery, and by unanimous vote, the Council adopted RESOLUTION NO. 105 - 90 APPROVING THE 1990-92 TRI-VALLEY TRANSPORTATION COUNCIL WORK PROGRAM and approved, in concept, the cost sharing method of splitting the planning costs in 7 equal shares, one to each jurisdiction. AMENDMENT TO VARIOUS AGREEMENTS AFFECTING THE EAST DUBLIN GENERAL PLAN/SPECIFIC PLAN STUDIES Planning Consultant Gillarde advised that the original contract between Wallace Roberts & Todd (WRT) was signed in August, 1988. Since that time, 2 amendments for additional services have been approved and monies submitted by a portion of the sponsoring property owners. The original contract requires the City and WRT to renegotiate the agreement in the event the project extends beyond 24 months. The project will not be completed by August, 1990; therefore, an amendment to the agreement is necessary. Ms. Gillarde advised that in order to complete the study, an additional $220,868 is needed. This amount consists of $129,739 in additional costs associated with the proposed WRT amended agreement and $91,129 in City Staff costs. The additional monies will cover: 1) management of the project by a principal of WRT; 2) addition of an assistant project manager; 3) addition of one senior and one junior level land planners; 4) additional EIR analysis as required by recent legislation; 5) cost adjustment due to WRT rate increases as provided for in original agreement; and 6) additional Staff time needed to manage/coordinate the project. @*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@* CM - VOL 9 - 209 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 Mayor Moffatt indicated that it was mentioned in the Staff Report that the sponsoring property owners have not agreed to this yet. Ms. Gillarde stated she had not yet received any verbal agreement or disagreement. They have been sent out with an indication that they should contact City staff with any questions or concerns. There has been some concern on the part of Ted Fairfield related to the funding. She indicated that Staff is operating on the premise that it will go forward. Mayor Moffatt asked if there was a contingency plan. Ms. Gillarde indicated they would go back to those who want to continue to fund to see if they wish to continue funding. Cm. Hegarty asked what happens if the people stay in limbo and costs keep incurring. How long will we allow it to go on? Ms. Gillarde advised that there is still money in the budget to carry the project for several months. They will be contacting the people right away to try to get the additional monies. On motion of Cm. Jeffery, seconded by Cm. Vonheeder, and by unanimous vote, the Council adopted RESOLUTION NO. 106 - 90 APPROVING THIRD AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF DUBLIN AND WALLACE ROBERTS & TODD, CONSULTANTS and RESOLUTION NO. 107 - 90 APPROVING AMENDMENTS TO AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE CITY OF DUBLIN AND SPONSORING PROPERTY OWNERS FOR EAST DUBLIN STUDY and RESOLUTION NO. 108 - 90 APPROVING FIRST AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF DUBLIN AND THE COUNTY OF ALAMEDA Carolyn Morgan, a Doolan Canyon resident inquired as to why they were not given an opportunity to speak. Mayor Moffatt advised that this discussion was not a public hearing and questioned City Attorney Silver with regard to accepting comments. Ms. Silver advised that it would be appropriate for the Council to hear comments from the floor. @*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@* CM- VOL 9 - 210 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 Ms. Morgan referred to Exhibit 1 of the Staff Report and asked since when was alternative #4 accepted. She asked if there was a public hearing. She understood that this had not been decided. Ms. Gillarde advised that no land use concept has been accepted. We are in the process of taking the ideas that were portrayed in all the concepts and synthesizing them. Alternative #4 had the best jobs/ housing balance with the least traffic. Mayor Moffatt advised that we are talking about land planning rather than land use. Ms. Morgan advised that alternative #4 has the most impact on Doolan Canyon residents. She expressed concern that Alameda County is using tax money to do this. study. Some properties may have more constraints than others. Ms. Gillarde advised that costs were based on a per acre owned basis. It has nothing to do with the number of constraints on a property. Bobbie Foscilino, Doolan Canyon resident advised that Doolan East and Doolan West contains approximately 1,200 acres. They seem to be paying a lot less than the County. She questioned how much land the CoUnty has included in the study. City Manager Ambrose advised that the difference is that we are not doing the level of study in the Doolan Canyon area. The County has a Specific Plan being studied in addition to the General Plan study. Ms. Foscilino questioned since the County is using tax funds for this study, why are the meetings closed to only property owners. Mr. Ambrose advised that this is primarily still being studied by Staff. Ms. Foscilino felt that Staff was making some major decisions and felt the meetings should be open. Mr. Ambrose advised that no decisions are being made. Staff must present alternatives for the Planning Commission and City Council to consider. Mayor Moffatt stated that public meetings are important if decisions are to be made, but in the meantime, concepts must be discussed. These are informational meetings. Ms. Foscilino advised that she would like to be involved in these meetings as they will impact her. City Attorney Silver advised that there was a study session meeting a couple of months ago. The Government Code sets forth the procedure which must be followed. There has been opportunity for input and the next item on the agenda Will be to schedule another joint Planning @*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@* CM -VOL 9 - 211 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 Commission/City Council study session where she will be allowed to provide input and comments. ESTABLISH DATE FOR JOINT CITY COUNCIL/PLANNING COMMISSION STUDY SESSION ON THE REFINED LAND USE CONCEPT FOR EAST DUBLIN Planning Consultant Gilarde advised that Monday, August 6, 1990 was originally proposed as a date for a joint City Council/Planning Commission study session on the refined land use concept for East Dublin. Staff was recommending that this date be changed to August 20th. The concept will be presented by the project consultants, followed by public, Commission and City Council discussion of the concept. The discussion will focus on the overall development concept envisioned for East Dublin and how that vision can be achieved through density, intensity and mix of land uses, as well as consideration of the area's natural features. No formal decisions or action on the project will be made by either the Planning Commission or City Council at this meeting. Public hearings will be held later on in the process. Mr. Ambrose advised that there will be a DRFA meeting that evening, however, it could be changed to earlier in the evening. Cm. Snyder advised that he will be out of town on August 20th. By a consensus of the Council, the date of August 22, 1990 was selected for the joint study session. The meeting was scheduled to begin at 7:00 p.m., in the Council Chambers. COMMUNITY PROFILE BROCHURE Senior Planner Carrington advised that on May 29, 1990, the City Council conceptually reviewed the production of a Community Profile Brochure and directed Staff to continue working with representatives of the Chamber of Commerce. The Council directed that the appropriate target audience be identified and that a content outline be provided. Mr. Carrington advised that a 4-page color brochure with 4 color photographs is proposed in an 8 1/2" x 11" format. Information in the brochure would be arranged around the color phOtographs under bold subtitles. Five thousand copies would be printed in order to have sufficient quantity on hand for distribution by the Chamber of Commerce and the City over a 2-year period. The coSt would be approximately $3,700, with funds budgeted. Cm. Jeffery felt that including average demographics of the community would be helpful. She also questioned if we would be able to get all the information into 4 pages. Mr. Carrington advised that all of the information may not fit in. @*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@, CM - VOL 9 - 212 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 Cm. Jeffery asked if 8 rather than 4 pages would double the costs. Mr. Carrington felt it would probably be more than double the cost to produce an 8 page brochure. Cm. Snyder felt that with regard to the information available, if you can't get it all on 4 pages, we should rethink it. Since we will be distributing this over a period of time, we may be sorry if housing costs change drastically. He suggested that an insert page be placed in the middle containing information that could be changed. Mr. Carrington indicated that the information which would become dated could be deleted. Cm. Jeffery felt it was important to include this information as the Chamber of Commerce gets asked these types of questions every day. Cm. Vonheeder stated she originally envisioned something more permanent with nice pictures and then something containing information that could change inserted. Cm. Jeffery felt we would definitely use the 5,000 copies. She did not feel this quantity would be enough for even one year. Mr. Ambrose advised that this figure was based on discussions with the Chamber of Commerce. He requested that the Council authorize Staff to go forward with typesetting and then bring back a draft before finalizing. Once it is set up, the costs for making minor adjustments will be fairly low. It would then be possible to get a better feel for what it will look like. Cm. Vonheeder stated she would rather see a photo of Shannon Community Center than the Swim Center placed in the brochure. On motion of Cm. Jeffery, seconded by Cm. Vonheeder, and by unanimous vote, the Council directed Staff to proceed with the development of the Community Profile Brochure and bring it back before the Council when it has been typeset. SCHAEFER'RANCH ROAD INTERCHANGE ASSURANCE OF AVAILABILITY OF LOCAL FUNDS Public Works Director Thompson advised that City Staff has been working with William R. Gray and Company, Eden Development, Caltrans, and TJKM in the design process for the future 1-580 interchange at Schaefer Ranch Road. The first step is a Project Study Report which will be prepared by Caltrans for the project's inClusion in the State Transportation Improvement Program. Design and construction costs for the interchange are being paid for by the Eden Development group. @*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@* CM -VOL 9 - 213 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 In order for Caltrans to complete the Project Study Report, Caltrans needs an acknowledgement from the City in which the City recognizes that the proposed interchange is a locally funded project. On motion of Cm. Jeffery, seconded by Cm. Vonheeder, and by unanimous vote, the Council adopted RESOLUTION NO. 109 - 90 GIVING NOTICE OF INTENT TO PROVIDE FOR FUNDING AND CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW CONNECTION TO 1-580 @ SCHAEFER RANCH ROAD HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE COLLECTION Assistant City Manager Rankin reported that the City of Dublin conducted a HHW collection which was co-sponsored with the Cities of Livermore and Pleasanton on May 5, 1990. A total of 10.2% of the participants were Dublin residents. This accounted for 75 households. This participation exceeded normal patterns. Costs could not be determined until after the event. The total cost for the City of Dublin is approximately $22,600. Estimates were made at $ .20 per single family customer and $ .15 per yard for multi- family bin service. Due to the high turnout and the large volume of waste collected, the final costs exceeded the pre-event estimates. Livermore-Dublin Disposal anticipates that the surcharge will need to be levied beyond September, 1991, in order to recover the costs associated with the 1990 event. It is projected that a surcharge less than the current rate would be levied for the period from October, 1991 to December, 1991. Mr. Rankin advised that Alameda County has proposed the establishment of a permanent program. A proposal was discussed which was presented to the Alameda County Board of Supervisors designed to handle Household Hazardous Waste, as well as waste generated by mini- generators (those who produce less than 220 lbs of hazardous waste per month). Individuals transporting waste to the colleCtion site would still be limited to a 5 gallon/50 pound limit. The County proposes to have the program operational by July 1, 1991. Mr. Rankin reported that the need for 3 sites was identified. A local site would be open 3 days each month. It was proposed to staff the program with a total of 12 new positions. The County would need to closely monitor the staffing needs. Mobile collection service would be provided to the elderly and handicapped by appointment. Fees of $1.25 per ton as a minimum were discussed, as well as the necessity for increasing the tipping fee to $1.32 per ton. The annual cost per household per year would be approximately $4.69. Mr. Rankin explained that Staff had concerns related to the tipping fee being levied on all garbage, as well as the overall use of a tipping fee. @*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@* CM - VOL 9 - 214 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 The Alameda County Waste Management Authority is scheduled to conduct a public hearing on July 25, 1990, to consider levying the tipping fee. Mr. Rankin advised that the staff recommendation was to accept comments and then continue the item. Mr. Rankin summarized that Staff had prepared a draft containing 4 comments to be sent to the ACWMA for consideration. Mr. Rafat Shahid with the Alameda County Health Care Services Agency was introduced. He indicated that the matter of the exemption was a recommendation of the Board of Supervisors, however, the Authority has the right to deliberate and decide on the issue. It will be determined by the Authority and their legal counsel as to whether they will proceed with the exemption and to what extent. Cm. Jeffery questioned why during this time of budget crunches, the Board of Supervisors requested exemptions be allowed. Mr. Shahid advised that some of the recyclers sent letters to the Board Members indiCating that they are recyclers and felt they shOuld be exempted as a reward. The definition is recycling is to be reviewed. He pointed out that the recommendation that the recyclers not have to pay is a recommendation only and not a mandate. Cm. Jeffery stated she strongly disagreed with this as the 'County is claiming near-bankruptcy. Everytime you get into exemptions, there are problems. If recyclers are in it for the business, they chose to be in that business and they should have to pay. Mr. Shahid stated he was sure this would be looked int© and deliberated as a political rather than a staff decision. Mayor Moffatt pointed out that non-profit organizations are asking for exemptions. He felt they should be at on a case-by-case basis. Mr. Shahid stated he had full confidence in the Waste Management Authority's ability to identify the issues and to listen to all comments. They will not get to a final decision until August. Cm. Snyder commended Mr. Shahid for listening to his recommendation and considering a third facility here in the Valley. It has been shown that there is a demand for this type of a facility here. On motion of Cm. Snyder, seconded by Cm. Jeffery, and by unanimous vote, the Council directed Staff to forward the City's comments to the Waste Management Authority. @*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@, CM - VOL 9 - 215 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 OTHER BUSINESS LAFCO (Doolan Canyon) Mr. Ambrose advised that a Staff Report prepared by LAFCO Staff had been received and which indicates that the Doolan Canyon issue would be addressed Thursday afternoon at their meeting which begins at 4:00 p.m., in Hayward. They. indicated that although the public hearing is closed, they will give each side 15 minutes to make any comments they wish. LAFCO Staff also asked that a revised study to include Croak Road and upper Doolan Canyon be prepared. The total area to be included in the revised study would be about 3,000 acres. They recommend that the Croak Road property remain in Dublin's sphere of influence. Staff also felt that upper and lower Doolan Canyon should be considered as a unit and not split. Three options were discussed: 1) Do not include in either City; 2) Allocate the entire area to Dublin; or 3) Allocate the entire area to Livermore. Mr. Ambrose felt it would be appropriate to have representation from the Council present at the LAFCO meeting. Livermore's entire Council typically attend. Mayor Moffatt and Councilmembers Jeffery, Snyder and Vonheeder all indicated they would be in attendance. Cm. Jeffery felt this is all a ploy to put off the decision until after the November election. This should be addressed, as she felt the additional study was an unnecessary expense at this time. Tri-Valley Joint Councils Meeting Mr. AmbroSe reminded the Council that Dublin Will be hosting the Joint Councils here at the Civic Center on Thursday, August 2nd. A dinner will be catered in the Regional Meeting Room. ~ Mayors' Conference Mr. Ambrose reported that Dublin is listed as the host City .for the next Mayors' Conference being held on Wednesday, August 8th. The Council discussed locations and Staff was directed to contact The Fishery restaurant and to host the meeting there. Since Mayor Moffatt will be out of the Country, Vice Mayor Vonheeder will be hosting. @*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@, CM -VOL 9 - 216 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 Tri-Valley Transportation Forum Cm. Vonheeder advised that Dublin will be hosting a meeting of the Tri-Valley Transportation Forum on Saturday, September 15th from 9:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. This meeting will be to bring each City Council and Planning Commission up to date on what is going on at the Committee level. East Bay Division of League of CA Cities Cm. Vonheeder advised that the East Bay Division of the League of CA Cities will be having a dinner meeting on September 13th at the Pleasanton Hotel. Sound System in Council Chambers Mr. Ambrose advised that Staff had hoped to give a report on the audio sound system and to demonstrate 2 other pieces of equipment at the August 13th Council meeting. Since Mayor Moffatt and Councilmember Snyder will both be out of the Country on that date, the Council requested that this item be agendized for the second August meeting. Display of Bray Items Mr. Ambrose advised that Staff had found a way to hang some of the items in the Civic Center that have been presented to Dublin over the years. Several plaques have been put up at the entrance to the Council Chambers and the Bray road sign was put up in the Bray Room. With regard to the display cases, Staff has found a firm that can fabricate them, but there is about a 5-6 week fabrication time frame. California Population Growth Cm. Vonheeder reported that she and Cm. Jeffery had attended a retreat for California Elected Women in Monterey following the Executive Forum last week. One of the speakers talked about redevelopment. She was a very impressive speaker and reported that 1,200 people a day are moving into California She advised that she would pass on the information materials to the City Manager. Cm. Vonheeder felt this growth rate was phenomenal. Cm. Snyder stated that ABAG uses a figure twice that amount. @*@*@*@*@*@*@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@,@, CM -VOL 9 - 217 Regular Meeting July 23, 1990 Mayor Moffatt advised that he had heard somewhere that over 50% of the people coming into the state are immigrants. Cm. Jeffery pointed out that there are a lot of community things that could be included in redevelopment that are normally not thought of.
