Agenda packet — Dublin City Council, October 18, 2022 (part 2 of 2)

review the NAS. According to FCS, the NAS clearly identified the proposed project’s stationary operational noise levels and their potential to result in a substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity within the standards established in the General Plan.

The operational noise level calculations are verifiable and accurately calculated as measured at the nearest sensitive receptor land use.

In order to ensure that the operation of the car wash is within the anticipated limits of the NAS, a condition of approval is included to require an assessment of the actual noise levels at the car wash tunnel to be conducted prior to the facility beginning operation. The assessment would be required, for review and approval of the Community Development Director, prior to operation of the proposed car wash.

The Resolution, including findings specified in Dublin Municipal Code Section 8.100.060, approving the CUP and conditions of approval is included as Attachment 2.

Site Development Review Permit
A Site Development Review Permit is required for all new principal structures. The following is a summary of the key components of the project associated with the Site Development Review Permit.

Site Plan, Access, and Circulation: The project site is accessed on the east side of the property from an existing driveway off Kaiser Road as shown in Figure 2. No direct access from Dublin Boulevard is proposed. The intersection of Kaiser Road and Dublin Boulevard is a shared intersection for access to the Kaiser Dublin Medical Center, the Nissan and Infiniti car dealerships, and the vacant commercial sites.

The proposed car wash tunnel is proposed on the west side of the property, perpendicular to Dublin Boulevard. The vacuum stations, with 15 parking spaces, are proposed in the middle of the site in two rows. The car wash tunnel and outdoor vacuum stations would be visible from Dublin Boulevard. This placement also results in some units at The Terraces across Dublin Boulevard having direct visual access into the car wash tunnel and vacuum stations. 223

Page 6 of 10 ends

Once on site, two vehicle lanes are provided for
queuing to the pay station and entry from the
north end into the car wash tunnel. The two pay
station lanes provide queuing storage for
approximately 14 vehicles. As vehicles continue
past the pay stations, the lanes merge into one
lane for access to the car wash tunnel. This area
beyond the pay station accommodates
approximately five vehicles. Upon exiting the
tunnel on the south end, a vehicle can proceed to
either exit the site or park at one of the 15
vacuum parking spaces. Prior to entering the car
wash tunnel an escape lane leading directly to
the vacuum stations is also available.

The City engaged the services of Kimley Horn
Associates (KHA) to evaluate traffic impacts and
on-site circulation to confirm that queuing for
the pay stations and car wash tunnel would be adequate and would not extend onto Kaiser Road and/or Dublin Boulevard. More specifically, KHA prepared a traffic analysis that addressed the following:

1. Trip generation comparison between the proposed project and the allowed trips for the Kaiser Commercial area in the Kaiser Dublin Medical Center Project Environmental Impact Report (Kaiser EIR), including pass-by trips;

2. Operational analysis for pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists that includes internal site circulation and traffic circulation at access points along Kaiser Road and future adjacent parcels; and

3. Pay station queuing.

In summary, the traffic analysis determined the following:

1. Trip Generation Comparison. The Kaiser EIR assumed that Phase 1B would consist of 250,000 square feet of commercial use, which results in estimated 8,620 daily trips, 447 AM peak hour trips and 775 PM peak hour trips. The proposed car wash is anticipated to result in 34 AM peak hour trips and 78 PM peak hour trips. The planned Nissan and Infiniti auto dealerships estimate 79 AM peak hour trips and 102 PM peak hour trips. Therefore, the proposed project’scumulative intersection impacts would be within the impacts identified in the Kaiser EIR

2. Operational Analysis. The analysis concluded that the intersections of Dublin Boulevard/Keegan Street/Kaiser Road and Kaiser Road/Car Wash Access are expected to continue to operate at an acceptable level of service. Therefore, no vehicle operational issues are anticipated due to the car wash project. The lack of vehicle queuing issues also eliminates potential conflicts with the pedestrian and bicycle facilities near the project.

3. Pay Station Queuing. The analysis concluded that the layout of the proposed car wash can 224

Page 7 of 10 ends

accommodate the queues from the pay station. The two queuing lanes to the pay station allow for storage of approximately seven vehicles in each lane, or 14 vehicles total. Five additional vehicles can queue after the pay station prior to entering the tunnel for a total queuing of 19 vehicles on-site. The analysis concluded that the queues were estimated to be a maximum of 24 vehicles in the peak hour. In order to ensure that vehicle queues do not result in any impacts beyond the subject property (i.e., Kaiser Road), Condition of Approval No. 153 requires the Applicant to monitor the queues and enter into an improvement agreement for a supplemental transportation study within the first 12 months of operation or if an obvious queuing issue develops, whichever is sooner.

The traffic analysis is included as Attachment 5.

Parking: The parking requirement for the proposed car wash is regulated by the City of Dublin Zoning Ordinance (Section 8.76.080.D). The parking requirement for a self-service car wash is four spaces, plus additional parking for drying/vacuum areas, plus 20 feet in front of each bay for stacking.

As shown in Table 2 below, the Applicant proposes to provide 15 vacuum parking spaces. An additional five parking spaces are provided on the south side of the property adjacent to the proposed trash enclosure. Over 100 feet between the entrance of the car wash tunnel and pay station is provided for stacking.

Car Wash
Drying/Vacuum
Area

No. of Spaces Required 4 15 20 feet
No. of Spaces Provided 5 15 100+ feet
Architecture: The proposed building is long and narrow reflective of its intended use as a car wash tunnel. It is approximately 40 feet wide, 109 feet long, and 30 feet tall. The architecture is contemporary with a lower middle section and taller elements at both ends. The building’s roof is a combination of a flat roof in the middle section and decorative shed roofs at both ends highlighting the taller portions of the building. The building is clad with smooth/flat metal siding painted blue and gray tones. Windows are provided on the upper half of the taller portions of the building and for a small office on the ground floor. The architectural style and materials are compatible with the contemporary architectural style, colors, and materials being utilized on other commercial projects within Dublin. The building’s elevations as well as color and materials are shown in the Project Plans on Sheet A301 in Attachment 3.

The vacuum area is designed with a carport-type canopy providing shade for each vacuum parking stall. The vacuum stations are integrated into the carport-type structure with solar panels and use a muted color palette to reduce their prominence as shown on Sheets A302 and A303 of the project plans (Attachment 3). Two stream waste cans for garbage and recycling are also provided at each station.

The Applicant provided photo simulations of the proposed project as seen from Dublin Boulevard 225

Page 8 of 10 ends

and Keegan Street included as Attachment 6.

Landscape: The entirety of the Kaiser Commercial site, including the subject property, was rough graded in 2021 as part of the development of the Nissan dealership and is currently devoid of vegetation. The preliminary landscape plan includes landscaping around the perimeter of property and between the car wash tunnel queue lanes and the vacuum stations. The conceptual plant pallet includes with a variety of trees, including 24-inch box trees along the perimeter of the site to help screen the internal circulation, parking and vacuum area from Dublin Boulevard and Kaiser Road. The interior of the site is accented with a mix of one-gallon and five-gallon shrubs.

New landscape areas are proposed with a variety of drought tolerant plants suitable for low maintenance and water conserving efforts. The landscape concept including the planting plan and palette is provided on Sheet L1 of the Project Plans (Attachment 3).

Public Art Compliance: The Applicant intends to satisfy the City’s public art requirement through the payment of in-lieu fees. Condition of Approval No.18 confirms this intention.

The Resolution approving the Site Development Review Permit and conditions of approval is included as Attachment 2.

General Plan/Eastern Dublin Specific Plan Compatibility The subject property is located within the Medical Campus/Commercial land use designation.

This designation accommodates a range of commercial uses including regional- and community- serving retail uses, professional and administrative offices, hotel, entertainment, limited automotive sales and eating and drinking establishments. A car wash is a community-serving retail use.

The subject property is also located within the Tassajara Gateway subarea of the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. The emphasis of this area is to create a “gateway” into eastern Dublin that establishes a positive impression to the travelers that pass through this area. The Specific Plan seeks to achieve this through siting and design of high-profile commercial uses (hotel, conference center, campus office, restaurant) recommended for this area to contribute to the creation of a distinctive “gateway” image. The proposed project meets the intent of the Dublin General Plan, which discourages projects that do not relate well to the surrounding developments and is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood that includes residential and commercial uses.

REVIEW BY APPLICABLE DEPARTMENT AND AGENCIES:

The Building Division, Fire Prevention Bureau, Public Works Department, and Dublin San Ramon Services District reviewed the project and provided conditions of approval where appropriate to ensure that the project is established in compliance with all local ordinances and regulations.

Conditions of approval from these departments and agencies have been included in the attached City Council Resolution (Attachment 2).

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

On September 20, 2016, the City Council certified the Kaiser EIR and adopted a Mitigation 226

Page 9 of 10 ends

Monitoring and Reporting Program and Statement of Overriding Considerations (Resolution No. 153-16). Pursuant to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, the proposed project was examined to determine if further environmental review is required.

Based on a review of the project, the environmental analysis in the Kaiser EIR and all of the information in the project record as a whole, the City has determined that there is no substantial evidence that any of the supplemental review standards are met. The proposed project is within the scope of the project analyzed in the Kaiser EIR because the proposed car wash is within the maximum intensity of commercial development anticipated. The circumstances under which the project is to be undertaken have not substantially changed since the Kaiser EIR was prepared and will not substantially change with approval of the project. As supported by the project description and Site Development Review Permit plans, the Kaiser EIR adequately describes the impacts of the project for the purposes of CEQA, and no mitigation measures or new alternatives are required by the project other than those previously disclosed and analyzed in the Kaiser EIR. Approval of the project would not create any site‐specific operations giving rise to environmental effects different from those examined by the Kaiser EIR or requiring the preparation of an Initial Study. The proposed project would be subject to the Kaiser Dublin Medical Center Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. Consequently, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15168(c), the project impacts are covered by the Kaiser EIR and no further environmental review is required for this project.

PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW:

The Planning Commission considered this project at their regular meeting on September 27, 2022 and voted 3-2 to recommend denial of the project. There were no public comments. The Commission expressed concern with the compatibility of the project with other land uses in the vicinity, on-site circulation and queuing, and the prominent location of the proposed waste enclosure near the entry driveway. It was also noted that the size of the parcel created limitations to development. The Planning Commission found that 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 Zoning Ordinance No. 03-19; the approved Planned Development Zoning 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.

The Planning Commission Resolution recommending denial of the project is included as Attachment 7.

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

None.

NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH:
