Development Review Permit. The proposed development and applications are collectively known
as the “Project;” and
WHEREAS, the Project site is approximately one-acre located south on the southwest
corner of Dublin Boulevard and Kaiser Road (Assessor Parcel Number 985 -0027-026-00); and
WHEREAS, on October 4, 2016, the City Council approved a Planned Development
Rezone with a Stage 1 Development Plan for the Kaiser Dublin Medical Center Project , which
included the subject site as part of Phase IB (also known as Kaiser Commercial) (Ordinance No.
07-16); and
WHEREAS, on May 7, 2019, the City Council approved a Planned Development Rezone
with a Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plan for the Kaiser Commercial site as part of the Nissan
Automobile Dealership project (Ordinance No. 03-19); and
WHEREAS, an amendment to Planned Development Ordinance No. 03-19 is necessary
to allow the proposed use; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act Section 15061 (b)(4),
projects that are denied are exempt from environmental review; and
WHEREAS, the Staff Report dated September 27, 2022, and incorporated herein by
reference, described and analyzed the Project, including the amendment to Planned Development
Ordinance No. 03-19; and

Project, on September 27, 2022, at which time all interested parties had the opportunity to be
heard.
Reso. No. 22-12, Item 6.1, Adopted 09/27/2022 Page 2 of 2
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the foregoing recitals are true and correct
and made a part of this resolution.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission recommends that that the
City Council deny amendments to Planned Development Ordinance No. 03-19 for the Kaiser
Commercial Project, the Conditional Use Permit and the Site Development Review Permit for the
project, as the proposed use and related structures are not compatible with other land uses in the
vicinity and were not envisioned when the City Council approved Planned Development
Ordinance No. 03-19; the approved Planned Development for the site focuses on uses that will
generate revenue to the City and the proposed use will not meet this important goal, which was
included to offset some of the tax revenue loss because of the Kaiser Medical Center ; there is no
evidence that the lack of a nearby commercial car wash will impact adjacent auto sales ; and a
low tax revenue generating business should not be encouraged in consideration of the two large
undeveloped parcels adjacent to this site.
