Mitigation Monitoring or Reporting Program
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires that all public agencies establish monitoring and/or reporting procedures for mitigation measures (MMs) adopted as part of the project approval in order to mitigate or avoid significant project impacts.

The MMRP identifies the following for each MM:

Timing. In each case, a timeframe for performance of the mitigation measure, or review of evidence that mitigation has taken place, is provided. The measures are designed to ensure that impact-related components of Project implementation do not proceed without establishing that the mitigation is implemented or assured. All activities are subject to the approval of all required permits from local, State, and federal agencies with permitting authority over the specific activity.

Responsible Party or Designated Representative . In each case, unless otherwise indicated, the applicant is the Responsible Party for implementing the mitigation. The City or a Designated Representative will also monitor the performance and implementation of the mitigation measures. To guarantee that the mitigation measure will not be inadvertently overlooked, a supervising public official acting as the Designated Representative is the official who grants the permit or authorization called for in the performance.

Where more than one official is identified, permits or authorization from all officials shall be required.

The numbering system corresponds with the numbering system used in the Final EIR. The last column of the MMRP table will be used by the parties responsible for documenting when implementation of the MM has been completed. The ongoing documentation and monitoring of mitigation compliance will be completed by the City of Dublin. The completed MMRP will be kept on file at the City of Dublin Community Development Department. 518

An archaeologist (either an archaeologist who meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualifications Standards for Archaeology or an archaeologist supervised by such an archaeologist) shall monitor all ground-disturbing activities associated with project implementation in non-bedrock sediments, including clearing and grubbing activities.

Archaeological monitoring shall occur on a full-time basis during these excavation activities until the Project Archaeologist, based on the archaeological monitor’s observations, is satisfied that there is little likelihood of encountering intact archaeological deposits. The Project Archaeologist may also determine it is appropriate to reduce monitoring to spot-checking on a part-time basis.

A. The Applicant, Dr. Sabri Arac, is requesting an amendment to the Planned Development Zoning and related Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plans for the property located at 6237 and 6363 Tassajara Road. The proposed Project would expand the campus to include a new performing arts center on the Quarry Lane School. Requested approvals include a Planned Development Rezone with a related Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plan. These planning and implementing actions are collectively known as the “Quarry Lane Performing Arts Center Project” or the “Project.”
B. The 12.63-acre Project site (APN 985-0072-002-00 and 985-0002-006-03) is located in eastern Dublin, at 6237 and 6363 Tassajara Road.

C. The existing General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan land use designations are Medium-Density Residential.

D. On December 19, 2000, the City Council approved the Planned Development (PD) District Pre-zoning and Annexation application (PA-99-064) and adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration (Resolution No. 204-00) for Phase II of the Quarry Lane School and a PD Pre-zone for the Kobold Property (Ordinance No. 24-00).

E. On June 17, 2014, the City Council adopted an Ordinance (No. 12-14) to amend the Zoning Map for PD Zoning District rezone and related Stage 1 and 2 Development Plan Amendments for the Quarry Lane School Phase III expansion and adopted an Initial Study and a CEQA Addendum (Resolution No. 18-14).

SECTION 2: FINDINGS
A. Pursuant to Section 8.32.070 the Dublin Municipal Code, the City Council finds as follows:

1. The Quarry Lane Performing Arts Center 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 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 development will blend with the natural features unique to the site through the use of design and planning.

2. Development of the Project under the Planned Development zoning will be harmonious and compatible with existing residential and semi-public development in the surrounding area in that the site will provide a dedicated performing arts space on an existing school campus.

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 existing site development and uses and will provide a new performing arts center.

2. The Project site conditions were documented in the Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan EIR (1993), Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan, which was adopted in 1993 and has a certified Program EIR (SCH No. 91-103064) and analyzed in the Quarry Lane Master Plan, which was adopted in 1998 by the County of Alameda and has a certified EIR (SCH No. 97122109) and the Supplemental Mitigated Negative Declaration that was prepared, and the environmental impacts that have been identified will be mitigated to the greatest degree possible.

3. The Planned Development zoning is consistent with the General Plan policies and the City’s Zoning Ordinance 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 nor 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.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Dublin does hereby make the following findings and determinations regarding the Site Development Review Permit for the Quarry Lane Performing Arts Center Project:

A. The proposal is consistent with the purposes of Chapter 8.104 (Site Development Review) of the Zoning Ordinance, with the General Plan, and any applicable Specific Plans and design guidelines because: the colors and materials of the new building will match those of existing buildings on campus, including the standing seam metal roof and a stucco finish painted to match the existing buildings. The window design and placement will also compliment the other buildings on the school campus to create a unified aesthetic.

B. The proposal is consistent with the provisions of Title 8, Zoning Ordinance because: 1) the architecture and landscape design for the new building are well-suited to the proposed use; 2) the overall design of the project is consistent with the design requirements of the Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plan for the Quarry Lane School; 3) the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan land use designation of Medium Density Residential and a school is permitted within this land use; and 4) the proposed project meets the intent of the Dublin General Plan, which discourages projects that do not relate well to the surrounding developments and the proposed project is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood that is primarily residential uses. The Quarry Lane School has existed in the location since the late 1990’s and the Project is an expansion of the existing campus facilities.

C. The design of the project is appropriate to the City, the vicinity, surrounding properties, and the lot(s) in which the project is proposed because: 1) the architecture and landscape design for the new building are well-suited to the proposed use and integrated into the overall campus design; 2) the overall design of the project is consistent with the design requirements of the Stage 1 and Stage 2 Development Plan for the Quarry Lane School; 3) the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan and Eastern Dublin Specific Plan land use designation of Medium Density Residential in that a private school is considered a community facility, a use that can be permitted in any zoning district with approval of a Conditional Use Permit; 4) the proposed project meets the intent of the Dublin General Plan, which discourages projects that do not relate well to the surrounding developments and the proposed project is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood that is primarily residential uses; and 5) the overall intensity of use of the site is not proposed to increase in that the maximum student population and other similar factors are not proposed to increase.

D. The subject site is suitable for the type and intensity of the approved development because:
1) the project site has been home to Quarry Lane School since the late 1990’s and the use is proposed to continue; and 2) although the amount of developable building area is proposed to increase, the intensity of use of the site is not proposed to change in that the proposed Performing Arts Center is intended to serve the existing student population and will not increase the total maximum student population, the maximum number of faculty 545
Reso. No. XX-23, Item X.X, Adopted XX/XX/2023 Page 4 of 35 and staff members; and 3) access to the site and circulation are designed to minimize impacts to Tassajara Road.

E. Impacts to existing slopes and topographic features are addressed because: 1) the Project site is currently developed with a single-family home and associated outbuildings; 2) the site is relatively flat and will not have significant impacts to the existing topographic features; 3) the roadway and utility infrastructure to serve the site already exists; 4) future approval of grading and improvement plans will enable the site to be modified to suit the project, which will be developed for the site in accordance with City policies and regulations; and 5) the project complies with the Planned Development Zoning District established for the site pursuant to provisions and policies of the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan, including the Tassajara Road Scenic Corridor Policy.

F. Architectural considerations including the character, scale and quality of the design, site layout, the architectural relationship with the site and other buildings, screening of unsightly uses, lighting, building materials and colors and similar elements result in a project that is harmonious with its surroundings and compatible with other developments in the vicinity because: the colors and materials of the new building will match those of the Buildings 2 and 3, including the standing seam metal roof with decorative eave corbels and a simple cement plaster finish painted to match the existing buildings. The window design and placement will also complement the other buildings on the school campus.

G. Landscape considerations, including the location, type, size, color, texture and coverage of plant materials, and similar elements have been incorporated into the project to ensure visual relief, adequate screening and an attractive environment for the public because: 1) the new perimeter landscape and hardscape will be consistent with the existing school campus to create a cohesive overall design; 2) the proposed landscape buffer along Tassajara Road will include a variety of trees, shrubs, flowering perennials, and grasses will be provided around the building and in the parking lot; and 3) the Project will conform to the requirements of the City’s Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance.

H. The site has been adequately designed to ensure the proper circulation for bicyclist, pedestrians, and automobiles because: 1) new site infrastructure includes driveways, pathways, sidewalks, and site lighting designed to create an interconnection between the existing campus facility and the new building and parking lot, including pedestrian and vehicular connections pathways that lead to the new building; 2) a new driveway from Tassajara Road will circulate one-way into the southern campus and exit through the signalized driveway at the intersection of Quarry Lane School and Tassajara Road and will circulate to the one-way, right turn only exit at the northernmost section of the campus; and 3) the proposed roadway and site frontage improvements has been designed in coordination with the City as part of the Tassajara Road widening and improvement project that is currently underway, including a dedication of frontage to accommodate the road widening project.

DESIGN SET

VICINITY MAP
Since its opening in January of 1991, The Quarry Lane School has provided a nationally recognized, exceptional, independent education program for students in the early education, elementary, middle, and high school levels. With a 100% graduation rate, Quarry Lane graduates are accepted into the top colleges of their choice year after year--many of which include some of the nation's finest colleges and universities. Quarry Lane has consistently ranked among the top private schools in the nation. For 2022, Quarry Lane was ranked 20th in the nation and 4th in the State in the Best Private K-12 Schools category by Niche.com. It also ranks among the top Best College Prep, STEM, and Best Private High Schools in the nation.

Quarry Lane School's Dublin East Campus, located at 6363 Tassajara Rd in Dublin, offers education for elementary through high school students with an approved total student enrollment capacity of 950 students. The campus has been in operation since 1999 and currently includes the four following buildings, as well as the Athletic Field at the East end of the campus:

Building 1 (7,611 SF): Admissions Office, Multipurpose Room (The Villa), and Lower (Elementary) School Library
Building 2 (15,578 SF): Elementary School classrooms
Building 3 (70,701 SF): Middle and High School classrooms and laboratories, Library, and Gymnasium
Building 4 (13,003 SF) : Engineering/Science and Technology classrooms and laboratories, Dining Hall, and Lecture Hall
The school purchased the property adjacent to the southern perimeter of the campus, which lies next to the Buildings 1, 3, and 4, in October of 2020 with the primary goal of providing an improved, dedicated space for the existing Performing Arts program and associated parking.

It is important to note that the school is not planning for nor is asking for an increase to the total student capacity approved by the City. There will be no expansion or addition to the total student enrollment and its current operations with this additional property. The proposed Performance Arts Building, and parking area will work towards providing a state-of-the-art, 21st century learning environment for our existing Performance Arts program, and associated parking spaces. Simply put, there will be no change to the day-to-day school operations.

The Performance Arts Building is designed to include a performance hall with seating for approximately 350, along with drama, music, dance, and rehearsal studios for current Quarry Lane students. The new facility will allow the school to provide a higher quality, modern space for performing arts, music, and dance classes. It will also provide a dedicated space to host the school's existing performance art shows and events, as well as an improved space for high school commencement ceremonies. The school currently hosts no more than eight events, including the high school graduation ceremony, during the school year and these events take place in the evenings and on weekends. Each of these events has had a total attendance of approximately 350 people which have had to take place in the school gymnasium, multipurpose room, or spread out throughout the campus.

Again, please note, the new facility will not change anything in the school's current operations, rather, it will help to offer convenient parking for our school community and an improved learning environment for our students and staff.

The school has a high school student parking policy which controls the number of high school students that can drive and park on campus. The total number of parking permit is about 30%of the existing total parking stalls. In issuing a limited number of permits to high school students per the policy, the school prioritizes first, the number of parking spaces available for students on campus, and secondly, the academic and community standing of students in the current year. Therefore, not every high school senior or age-qualified junior gets a parking permit for the school year. Furthermore, over the last 15 or so years, the school has not traditionally had all qualified senior and junior students apply for a student parking permit. The school has controlled and enforced this policy effectively and students and parents are well-versed in the policy before signing enrollment paperwork for any given school year.

As exhibited in the proposed drawing, the student and staff parking will not change despite additional parking is proposed for the project. As shown in the proposed civil drawings, inbound traffic for staff and students will have its own right lane entering the parking lot.

The proposed lot will only be used for inbound entry and it will not provide any exit.

Students and staff will continue to leave campus as per existing current conditions.

The Upper School program for grades 6 through 12 follows a rotating block schedule which allows teachers to teach their subject classes two to three days a week versus every day.

This means these teachers do not have to be on campus for eight hours a day; more likely, they are on campus for two to five hours each day. This gives teachers the flexibility to come and leave the campus during the off-peak hours. Essentially, not every teacher has to be on campus during the standard arrival times in the mornings and they can also leave once their teaching responsibilities are over for the day.

Additionally, the school uses a staggered system for morning arrival and afternoon dismissal times for different grade levels. Specifically, this means that there are different arrival and dismissal times for Jr. K-Grade 2, Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8, and Grades 9-12. The school has utilized this staggering system successfully since the opening of the Dublin East campus in 1999.

TO:  Anne Hersch, Assistant Community Development Department Director, City of Dublin
FROM:  Shanna Guiler, AICP, Associate/Environmental Planner SUBJECT:  Quarry Lane School Performing Arts Center Project Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration ‐ Response to Comments

In accordance with Section 15074 of the CEQA Guidelines, prior to approving a project, the decision‐ making body of the lead agency shall consider the proposed environmental document together with any comments received during the public review process. Although there is no legal requirement to formally respond to comments on a proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) as there is for an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), this memorandum provides a response to the written comments received on the Quarry Lane School Performing Arts Center Project Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) to aid the City of Dublin decision‐makers in their review of the project.

One comment letter was received on the Draft IS/MND. In the following pages, the comments and responses are enumerated to allow for cross‐referencing of CEQA‐related comments. The enumerated comment letter is included in this memorandum, followed by the respective responses.

Individual comments within the letter are numbered consecutively. For example, comment A‐1 is the first numbered comment in Letter A.

Re: Quarry Lane School Performing Arts Center
Zone 7 Water Agency (Zone 7, or Zone 7 of the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District) has reviewed the referenced document in the context of Zone 7’s mission to "Deliver safe, reliable, efficient, and sustainable water and flood protection services" within the Livermore-Amador Valley. Below are our comments for your consideration.

1. Wells – Your draft CEQA document is missing supply well 2S1E28L002. Please refer to the maps found in Attachment A for approximate location.

2. Groundwater Basin - Note that the subject property (or project) is located within the basin area under sustainable groundwater management by Zone 7 as per the Alternative Groundwater Sustainability Plan for the Livermore Valley Groundwater Basin (https://www.zone7water.com/sites/main/files/file-
attachments/alt_gw_sustainability_plan-4.pdf?1656015908 ) and is subject to all relevant sustainable groundwater management actions.

3. Flood Protection / Impervious areas - Developments creating new impervious areas within the Livermore-Amador Valley are subject to the assessment of the Development Impact Fee for Flood Protection and Storm Water Drainage. These fees are collected for Zone 7 by the local governing agency: 1) upon approval of final map for public improvements creating new impervious areas; and/or 2) upon issuance of a building or use permit required for site improvements creating new impervious areas.

Fees are dependent on whether post-project impervious area conditions are greater than pre-project conditions.

10/2/23 (P:\DUB2101.03 Quarry Lane School Performing Arts\PRODUCTS\Initial Study\RTC\QuarryLn_Draft RTC.docx) LETTER A
Zone 7 Water Agency, Elke Rank
July 31, 2023

Response A‐1:  The comment, which indicates that the Draft IS/MND does not include reference to supply well 2S1E28L002, is acknowledged. As shown in the maps attached to the comment letter the supply well is located within the existing parking lot on the Quarry Lane School property. The proposed project would be constructed in the southernmost portion of the school property; no ground disturbance or construction activity would occur at the location of the existing well.

As further described on page 102 of the IS/MND, the proposed project would connect to the existing water lines within the vicinity of the project site and would not require the direct use of groundwater. Water would be supplied by the Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD) and Zone 7, which relies primarily on imported water from other sources. Although Zone 7 does use local groundwater to augment the local water supply, groundwater resources are managed to ensure supplies are maintained.

Although the proposed project would result in a net increase in impervious surface coverage compared to the existing condition, the proposed project would include the use of LID, including multiple bioretention basins and storm drains throughout the site that would retain and clean stormwater on‐site before discharging it into the municipal stormwater system, consistent with Provision C.3 of the Municipal Regional Permit (MRP) (Order No. R2‐2022‐0018 NPDES Permit No. CAS612008).

Further, Mitigation Measures 3.5/49.0 and 3.5/50.0 of the Eastern Dublin EIR, which require that facilities and management practices in the Eastern Dublin EIR area protect and enhance water quality, were identified to reduce potential impacts related to groundwater recharge to a less‐than‐ significant level (see pages 99 and 100 of the IS/MND). With adherence to applicable regulatory requirements and mitigation measures identified in the Eastern Dublin EIR, there would be no new impacts to groundwater supplies beyond what has been analyzed in the previous Eastern Dublin EIR.

No change to the IS/MND is required.

Response A‐2:  This comment, which states that the project site is located within the basin area under sustainable groundwater management by Zone 7, is acknowledged. As noted in Section 9 on page 99 of the IS/MND, the San Francisco Bay RWQCB Basin Plan identifies the proposed project as being within the Livermore Valley groundwater basin (Basin ID 2‐10). As defined in DWR Bulletin 118 Update 2003 (California’s Groundwater), the Livermore Valley Groundwater Basin (DWR Basin 2‐10) extends from the Pleasanton 637

As described in Response A‐1, the proposed project would connect to the existing water lines within the vicinity of the project site, which are supplied by DSRSD and Zone 7. Although the proposed project would result in a net increase in impervious surface coverage compared to the existing condition, adherence to applicable regulatory requirements and mitigation measures identified in the Eastern Dublin EIR would ensure that impacts related to groundwater recharge would not be significant. Therefore, there would be no new impacts to groundwater supplies beyond what has been analyzed in the previous Eastern Dublin EIR. No change to the IS/MND is required.

No change to the IS/MND is required.

Response A‐4:  The comment, which states that Zone 7 encourages the use of sustainable, climate‐appropriate and drought‐tolerant plants, trees and grasses, is acknowledged. As described on page 9 of the IS/MND, the proposed project would include a landscape buffer along Tassajara Road, landscape plantings, including a variety of trees, shrubs, flowering perennials, and grasses around the building and in the parking lot several landscaped stormwater basins. Most of the proposed trees, shrubs, and groundcovers would be either native species or drought tolerant species for water conservation.

Further, the proposed project would be required to comply with MM

3.5/26.0 (Program 9A) as identified in the Eastern Dublin Specific EIR, which requires water conservation measures be included as conditions of approval for projects in eastern Dublin. No change to the IS/MND is required. 638

STAFF REPORT

CITY COUNCIL

Page 1 of 5 ends

Agenda Item 8.1
DATE: October 3, 2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Linda Smith, City Manager
SUBJECT: Dublin Arts Center Operations Overview
Prepared by: Bridget Amaya, Assistant Parks & Community Services Director EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City Council will receive an overview of the planned operation of the Dublin Arts Center.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Receive the report.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There is no financial impact associated with this report. Fees, expenses, and revenues depicted in the operations guide are estimates. All fees and budget projections will be approved per the City’s budget and fee schedule process.

DESCRIPTION:

Background
In October 2019, the City Council approved an agreement with Group 4 Architecture Research and Planning, Inc. to develop the old Police Services wing of the Civic Center Complex, encompassing 13,500 square feet of the Civic Center, into the Dublin Arts Center. The center will include a black box theater, an art gallery, and program spaces, including a dance studio, an arts and crafts room, a mixed media space, a music studio, and an art yard/ceramic studio. On May 19, 2020, the City Council approved the schematic design of the proposed Dublin Arts Center. Since then, City Staff and Group 4 have been working through the design development process.

In 2021, Staff began conducting research and compiling feedback from the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission (HCAC) to draft an operations guide to outline guiding principles, strategies, and programming for the Dublin Arts Center. Additionally, on June 7 and September 20, 2021, The Parks and Community Services Commission (PCSC) provided feedback and suggestions for items to incorporate into the plan.
639

Page 2 of 5 ends

In February 2022, an ad hoc committee was created, comprising members from the HCAC, PCSC, the Youth Advisory Committee, and the Senior Center Advisory Committee. This committee reviewed the draft operations guide and provided comments for inclusion.

On November 10, 2022, the HCAC recommended the Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide as presented. As more research and data have been acquired, minor non-substantive changes have been made to the plan.

Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide
This document aims to outline guiding principles, strategies, and programming to assist Staff in maximizing the utilization of spaces and guide the operations of an efficient facility that minimizes General Fund subsidies. The document highlights the facility’s planning approach, strategies, marketing, operations, management, and projected financials.

With the main goals of the facility being accessibility for all and building connections to the arts community, Staff intends to focus on collaboration with quality instructors, artists, and engaging with community members and organizations in Dublin and surrounding communities.

In preparation for the opening of the Dublin Arts Center, Staff have been actively researching and analyzing best practices of nearby theaters and cultural arts centers. Staff has collected policies and procedures from such facilities and regularly communicates with them to learn from experiences and enhance Dublin’s presence in the arts community. This will be an ongoing process well after the center’s opening day. These facilities include:
 Bankhead Theater – City of Livermore
 Dougherty Station Community Arts Center and Galleries – City of San Ramon  Firehouse Art Center and Gallery – City of Pleasanton  Lesher Center for the Arts – City of Walnut Creek
 Mertes Center for the Arts, Los Positas College – City of Livermore  Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts – City of Mountain View  Olive Hyde Art Center and Gallery – City of Fremont
 The Grand Theater and Gallery – City of Tracy
 Village Theatre and Gallery – Town of Danville
As part of the Operations Guide, Staff is drafting a detailed marketing plan to create a constant presence that will appeal to the community and respond to needs and interests. This will include a website specific to the Center, inserts in the existing activity guide, social media, broad theatrical season announcements, and collaborations with partners.

The Dublin Arts Center will typically be open from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and Sundays from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., to accommodate programs, classes, workshops, performances, exhibits, and facility rentals. The facility will be operated by full-time staff during traditional office hours, as the Parks and Community Services offices will be located on the second floor. On weeknights and weekends, part-time staff will be utilized for general facility needs. These 640

Page 3 of 5 ends

hours could be expanded for facility rentals or class schedules, with additional staffing costs covered in facility rental or class/activity revenue.

Classroom/Program Spaces
Program spaces will be utilized for City-sponsored classes and activities as well as co-sponsored events such as paint/poetry nights, workshops, afternoon drop-in art events, and historian chats.

Additionally, these spaces may serve as meeting spaces for various arts groups to foster connections among creative Dublin residents. Staff are also actively researching ceramic studio guidelines as well as the use of environmentally safe art supplies and equipment to reduce the ecological impact of the programs. This may include water-based paints, natural pigments, recycled paper and canvas, eco-friendly brushes, natural and recycled sculpture materials, non- toxic glues and adhesives, soy-based inks, and recycled art supplies.

The department will solicit experienced and knowledgeable instructors who will be compensated 60% of the resident rate, while the City will retain the remainder. Classes currently secured are watercolor painting, calligraphy, theater and improvisation, anime and magna drawing, hip hop, toddler ballet, break dancing, tap dance, and clay art, with interviews scheduled with instructors for digital art, succulent creation, music ensembles, visual storytelling, spoken word art, Bollywood dance, sewing, theater arts, mandala art, felt making, abstract art, color theory, self- portraiture and more. The estimated revenue projections noted in the Operations Guide are based on the current average number of participants and class prices for the department's existing art and dance classes.

Precinct Black Box Theater
Named to commemorate the old Police Services wing of the Civic Center, the Precinct Black Box Theater is expected to support a variety of productions, rehearsals, and events for smaller-scale performances of up to 150 people. Utilizing a combination of the department's amenity-based fee schedule and researching competitive market rates of similar facilities, Staff has determined a base rate to start the fee development process. The table below illustrates similar-sized theaters and their base or resident rental rates. Rates may have a sliding scale determined by the day of the week and rental type. The estimated revenue projections noted in the operations guide are based on the highlighted rate noted below.

TABLE 1: Base Rental Rates of Local Theaters

NAME LOCATION BASE RATE CAPACITY
Firehouse Theater Pleasanton $145 hr 220
Front Row Theater San Ramon $44 - $75 hr 90
Mertes Center for the Arts (Black Box) Los Positas College $125 hr 75 Precinct Black Box Theater Dublin $130 hr 125

Gallery 180
Gallery 180 is named as a tribute to the unique shape of the Dublin Arts Center within the distinctive 360-degree Civic Center, which plays an essential role in the overall harmony of the facility. The gallery space will support an exhibition program for small to medium audiences and will traditionally be open during regular operating hours. As Staff continues to research operating procedures, the table below represents an initial cost comparison with similar facilities, including artist submission fees and cost-sharing percentages for art sales. The estimated revenue projections noted in the operations guide are based on the highlighted rates noted below.

8 Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide Planning Approach

PLANNING APPROACH
In considering the City’s mission, values, needs, opportunities, and potential viability of a cultural arts center, extensive research and analysis were completed . In 2016, both a feasibility study and a needs assessment were completed . In 2019, the City of Dublin contracted with GreenPlay, LLC, to update its Parks and Recreation Master Plan . This process included a community survey that solicited input on cultural arts programs and activities . These assessments focused on the City’s mission, values, needs, opportunities, and the potential viability of a Cultural Arts Center .

Input and feedback from the City’s Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission and Parks and Community Services Commission were gathered . The Commissions examined comparable facilities and considered organizational structure, annual revenue, and expenses; revenue sources; and program types and sizes incorporated into the facility’s layout, programming plans, and ultimately the final design of the DAC .

DOWNTOWN CONNECTION
After years of hearing from the community about the need to create a Downtown in the City of Dublin, the City Council unanimously approved the Downtown Dublin Preferred Vision . Its main principles were the siting of a town square and enhancing the character of Downtown Dublin . With the site of the DAC being less than a mile from the future “social center,” it will certainly assist in the path forward to a main street experience in the following ways:
• Restaurants may open, expand, and prosper in service to audiences before and after performances . • More retail businesses may open in response to street and pedestrian activity between the DAC and the downtown area .
653
9 Strategies Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide

STRATEGIES
The DAC is an approximately 13,500 square-foot facility that will feature a black box theater, an art gallery, an arts and crafts classroom, a mixed media classroom, an arts yard, a ceramics studio, a dance/fitness studio, a music room, and a small catering kitchen .

Basic strategies for the DAC are as follows:

GALLERY 180
Exhibitions – The DAC will become the site for year-round art exhibitions . The gallery space will support an exhibition program for small to medium audiences, with exhibition space leaking into the rest of the facility, including hallways and other appropriate spaces to tie cultural arts into the entire facility .

PRECINCT BLACK BOX THEATER
Performances – The black box theater is expected to support a variety of productions, rehearsals, and events for smaller-scale performances . It may also house small acting and theater classes and will be available for private rentals .

CLASSROOMS/MEETING SPACES
Education – Designed for learners of all ages . Depending on community interests, a focus on topics from creative writing to painting, sketching, photography, filmmaking, music, and digital arts . Additionally, these spaces will serve as meeting spaces for various affinity groups within the arts to foster connections among creative Dublin residents . It will be a priority to allow for no- cost use of the spaces throughout the week during regular business hours . A schedule will be determined after observing DAC visitor traffic and usage .

COMMUNICATIONS
The DAC will function as a clearinghouse for arts
information in Dublin, offering a comprehensive
web-based calendar of arts events . We will work
to establish a cultural arts information website
that lists programs, classes, and events that
becomes the central source of information for
cultural arts programming at the DAC .
654
10 Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide Strategies

MARKETING PLAN
A detailed marketing plan will be created as audience development and customer databases are crucial to the success of the DAC . The frequency and diversity of the DAC’s programs are key to the growth of clientele and should appeal to the community . Staff will strive to create a constant presence in the minds of this clientele and respond to their needs and interests . Developing a community of clientele and supporters through email lists and social media is essential . i . The branding and positioning of the facility and its programs should stress the following attributes:
a . The DAC is a unique cultural venue in terms of its programs and character . b . The DAC supports various programs for all local and regional residents . c . The DAC is easy to find, close to the future Downtown Dublin, located in a safe area, has ample parking, and is professionally staffed . i . A website specific to the DAC will be the hub of all communication and demonstrate the brand and roster of offerings . It will be the DAC’s most important communication tool, allowing residents and art lovers access to the DAC’s registration system, information on the gallery, black box theater, facility rentals, and DAC offerings . The website will be up- to-date and clear .
655
11 Marketing Plan Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide ii . Along with a website, existing activity guide, and use of social media, print advertising and collaboration with partner organizations should be considered . Efforts should be made to begin partnerships with media outlets focused on outreach to prominent cultures in the City of Dublin and the region . Radio advertising, bus shelters, bus tails, street banners, etc . should also be considered . The type and frequency will be adjusted depending on the type of offering . Given the proximity of the DAC to the 580/680 freeway interchange and BART , advertising should also be considered in transit stations, centers, and corridors . iii . Leading up to the opening of the DAC, an effort will be made to have programs, events, and other offerings ready for that season . These will help build community excitement and pride and lead to audience development and customer databases . iv . Once the DAC is established, broad season announcements will be developed to complement the Parks and Community Services Department’s existing activity guide .

These seasonal announcements could be posters and flyers communicating gallery exhibits, performances, and other offerings . Marketing for small, individual, or one-off programs, should take place but may only be in the form of digital marketing . v . Staff will work closely with the Senior Advisory Committee, the Youth Advisory Committee, the Parks and Community Services Commission and the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission to foster outreach ideas and keep connections with all demographics in Dublin and the region . Thus far, strategies include morning video announcements at Dublin’s high and middle schools, communicating with school clubs, and working closely with art teachers .
656
12 Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide Marketing Plan

OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT PLAN
The Parks and Community Services Department will develop and manage the DAC’s programs with staff dedicated to the DAC .

HOURS OF OPERATION
The DAC will typically be open from 8:00 a .m . to 8:00 p .m ., Monday through Saturday, and Sundays from 8:00 a .m . to 5:00 p .m ., to accommodate programs, classes, workshops, performances, exhibits, and facility rentals . The facility will generally be operated by full-time staff during traditional office hours . It will transition to part-time staff to tend to general facility needs on weeknights and weekends . These hours could be expanded pending facility rentals or class schedules, with additional staff costs covered in facility rental or class revenue .

FACILITY RENTALS
The DAC should be available for rental to the community at large, including arts groups for rehearsal and performance, residents, civic organizations, businesses, and individuals who may need the space for meetings or events . City programs will be planned and booked 12-18 months in advance, with remaining available spaces open to the public on a first-come, first-served basis .

Explicit policies for facility rentals are already in place within the department’s existing facilities and will be utilized in the new DAC . Further policies will be established to guide the operation of the gallery and theater spaces as the department does not have existing facilities similar to this .

Fees for DAC rentable spaces will be determined using the department’s amenity-based fee schedule, which formulates the square footage of each space with the amenities available . Additionally, staff will review costs for similar spaces in the region to ensure the DAC’s fees coincide with like spaces in other cities . Ultimately, rental rates will cover direct costs, which can be tied to the space, such as staff and equipment, and indirect costs, such as building maintenance and utilities . Rates may be discounted for non-profit organizations but will cover the direct costs of the facility rental .

Utilizing existing facility rental procedures, staff will develop guidelines for DAC rentals that will include vendor requirements, insurance requirements, user manuals for equipment, necessary permits, contracts/agreements, equipment inventory, maintenance schedules, replacement schedules, room layouts, fee schedules, rental maximums/minimums, alcohol use, outside permitting requirements, room capacities for all styles of seating, facility staff manuals, cancellation policy, and general facility rules to be established six months prior to opening . 657
13 Operations and Management Plan Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide

PRECINCT BLACK BOX THEATER
The DAC will be home to a theater space of approximately 2,000 square feet with a maximum capacity of 150 . A black box theater is defined as a simple indoor performance space with level floors and plain walls, purposely designed to provide flexibility in configuration . i . The black box theater will feature a variety of programs, including City-sponsored performances, private performances, contract programming, and private rentals or indoor film festivals . Booking for the venue will typically occur a year or more in advance . Rental rates will be established based on user type . These uses include City-sponsored ticketed events and co-sponsored events with outside organizations . a . Private use for performing arts that includes performance and rehearsal time . Rates could vary depending on time/type of use and if open to the public or invite only . b . Private use for social events such as birthdays and other celebrations . i . Rental rates for the black box theater could include hourly rental rates, revenue sharing, and equipment rental/use fees .
i . The black box theater will be outfitted with lighting, sound, and other theatrical equipment to best serve the needs of user groups . This equipment will be used by an approved audio/ visual professional, with staffing costs passed onto the facility user . i . Consideration will be given to users/groups booking a series or multiple theatrical performances requiring reservations to be secured more than a year in advance . ii . The City will use existing registration platforms to manage ticketed performances for City and City-sponsored events in the theater space . Upon request, the City will use existing registration platforms to help manage ticketed performances for outside organizations, with administrative and payment processing costs passed on to outside groups and/or revenue sharing in these instances . Additionally, staff will explore ticketing platforms that may create a more seamless purchase experience for reserved seating within the black box theater . 658
14 Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide Operations and Management Plan GALLERY 180
The DAC will be home to a dedicated
gallery space of approximately 600 square
feet . The gallery will traditionally be open
during regular operating hours .
iii . Additional staffing for the gallery
space is generally not required . The
front desk staff and a video security
system will provide adequate
supervision . It is recommended
that a volunteer/docent program
be established to supplement supervision and enhance the experience for gallery visitors .

This could be done in partnership with arts organizations and individual volunteers . The gallery may also be opened while performances are taking place in the theater space of the DAC . It’s recommended that a volunteer/docent be present during these times . In the absence of a volunteer, the part-time staff assigned to the rental can oversee the area and the remainder of the facility .
iv . Staff should plan on curating approximately six exhibits per year, with at least one being youth-based and one being a juried exhibition . This will allow each exhibit to be on display for 6-8 weeks and for preparation time in between exhibits . Exhibitions by more prominent artists may last longer than 6-8 weeks, while exhibitions by local community groups may be shorter . Additionally, staff should look into exhibits that feature specific mediums by multiple artists and “member exhibitions” that could highlight local arts organizations .

Staff will create standards to determine prominent or professional artists versus amateur or community-based artists . Opening receptions/events for exhibition openings should be planned . Staff could also research costs and information on traveling or touring exhibitions to attract audiences and promote access to knowledge and materials that may not be available locally . T o ensure visual diversity and continuous use of the gallery, upon confirmation of City-curated exhibitions, staff may contact local partners to provide dates for the remaining blocks .
v . Artist submissions to be considered for the gallery space will be accepted, with a “Call for Artists” conducted annually if necessary . Generally, the gallery will be scheduled a year in advance . Artists, to ensure commitment, will be required to pay a nominal fee for their submission . This fee will be similar to those of like venues and will be listed in the City’s Master Fee Schedule . The establishment of an ad-hoc gallery selection committee should be established . With staff oversight, this committee may accept and deny submissions .

Gallery submissions will be accepted regularly, and the schedule will be coordinated with 659
15 Operations and Management Plan Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide artists once submissions are confirmed . The ad-hoc committee shall include representation from:
• Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission
• Community-at-large
• Members of other local arts-based organizations
vi . Sales of exhibition pieces in the gallery space are encouraged . The City will retain a percentage of all sales . The percentage will be listed in the City’s Master Fee Schedule (generally, The City would retain around 30%) . While artwork can be sold, it will not be removed from the display until the exhibition concludes . A sold tag will be placed on items that have been purchased, and reconciliation will take place with purchasers and artists at the end of the exhibition period .
vii . Adequate display equipment shall be invested in and provided . This includes systems to display different artwork mediums and fully adjustable pedestals, wall mounting systems, and lighting . City staff and artists will work collaboratively to identify needs with no guarantees the City will make equipment available . More capability will allow for a broader range of exhibits .
viii . Galley space may also be used for gallery talks, artist spotlights, and temporary pop-up exhibitions .

CLASSROOMS/PROGRAM SPACES
Classroom spaces may be utilized for City-sponsored classes via independent contract instructors to offer various year-round cultural arts programs for all skill levels and ages, from preschool to seniors . The City will manage and collect program registrations on behalf of independent contractors . Program spaces may also be used for programming affiliated with the City’s Poet Laureate and Historian .

The department will solicit experienced and
knowledgeable instructors to maximize the
use of program-specific rooms . Instructors
will be compensated 60% of the resident
rate, while the City retains the remainder .

Programming will primarily be scheduled
during the DAC’s business hours, with
occasional evening and weekend classes . One
Part-time temporary Recreation Aide will be
needed to monitor the facility and manage
room set-ups for multiple program spaces .

5. Ceramics Studio (1,232 square feet) and Arts Yard (1,029 square feet) The ceramics studio is a garage-like space with a large access door leading to the arts yard, a completely outdoor space . Classes could occur in either area, pending weather and air conditions, class materials, and class sizes . Examples of classes staff would recruit instructors for include acrylics, clay, watercolors, oils, ink wash, machining, pottery, electronic art, woodworking and tinting, robotics, 3D printing, 3D modeling, multimedia, sculpture, tapestry, mosaic, stained glass, and pop/street art .

Single-day events will be offered each season to attract new patrons, such as Paint Night, Workshops, Still Life painting, etc . Either space could also feature a ceramics open studio for teens and adults to utilize City-owned electric kilns, wheels, and slab rollers for a fee . Staff will look into the management of an open studio with regard to storage, materials for sale, fees, and processes . Additional research is needed regarding jewelry, photography, and printmaking studios .
661
17 Operations and Management Plan Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide

6. Catering Kitchen (229 square feet)
The DAC includes a small kitchen that should be available for various uses . This is a catering kitchen intended to centralize food delivery during events in the gallery and theater spaces . Additional benefits could include small group cooking demonstrations, but the kitchen is inadequate for more traditional cooking classes . Rental rates adjacent to a gallery or Black Box rental may be established for this space .

STAFFING AND VOLUNTEERS
The DAC will be home to the administrative offices of the Parks and Community Services Department . Existing staff will be utilized in the operation of the DAC, including management by the Assistant Parks and Community Services Director . The following are short job descriptions for key positions with percentages of their salary associated with the operations of the DAC . i. Existing Staff
a . Assistant Parks and Community Services Director: General oversight of all operations . b .

662
18 Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide Operations and Management Plan iii. Volunteers are critical to the operation of a successful DAC . Though the DAC must have professional staff, developing a volunteer program with volunteer advocates is important .

It should also be noted that volunteers should have adequate training and be adequately supervised to ensure the operational goals of the DAC are maintained . iv. Youth Volunteers, particularly those in high school, including members of the Youth Advisory Committee, must be partners and advocates for the DAC and will play a large role in reviewing submissions for the annual youth exhibit . Additionally, participants in the Dublin LEAD (Leadership, Experience, and Development) program (which fosters leadership skills, assists in job experience, and aids in personal development), who have interests in cultural arts may volunteer in a multitude of ways .

PARTNERSHIPS
Working collaboratively with existing cultural arts organizations and other public and private agencies is important to ensure a broad array of programming for all demographics and abilities .

Staff should work to build and keep close relationships with partners, including the local library, arts organizations, schools, and businesses that can collaborate with the City to ensure arts are an integral part of the fabric of life in Dublin . Close partners will assist in gaining a better understanding of diverse cultures and ideas that, over time, will establish the nucleus of community-based cultural groups and artists and, above all, assist in the City’s mission to champion a culture of diversity and inclusion .

19 Operations and Management Plan Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide

FINANCIAL MODEL
Tables and data below project activity and financial performance with a goal to recover direct and indirect costs and regain the costs of any expenses related to the DAC . Projections and fees in the financial model have educated assumptions to aid in planning facility operations and are not final .

Fees, rates, and facility budget will be presented to the City Council per the traditional budget procedure .

REVENUE
The DAC’s revenue will come from program fees, exhibitions, facility rentals, and sponsorships .

This plan establishes a revenue goal of approximately $781,266 in the first full year to help offset expenses . The DAC anticipates offering a full range of programming to generate revenue to support the facility’s costs . The first year’s operating budget is based on the following assumptions, derived from fees charged to a traditional Dublin resident or group (base rate) . The City’s Master Fee Schedule typically exhibits a range of fees based on a percentage for different customer types .

Public Agencies and non-profit organizations, such as churches and schools, are generally charged lower rates . In contrast, non-residents or commercial users are charged fees at the higher end of the scale . It is anticipated that not-for-profit agencies will see lower facility rental fees estimated at a reduction of no more than 15% . Anything higher would impact the City’s ability to recover costs completely and would be considered a subsidy .

REVENUE GENERATION BREAKDOWN BY PROGRAM
A. Gallery 180
Six to eight exhibitions per year .
i . Estimated five artist submissions per exhibit x $30 application fee = $150 per exhibit x an average of seven exhibitions at $1,050 for the first year . Fees could vary, including reduced or no-cost rates for youth exhibits and adjusted rates for group exhibitions . Fees may be waived entirely for shows curated by others .
i . Cost sharing of art and merchandise sales . Artists set fees, and City retains 30% of any sales . The first year is estimated at $2,000 .
ii . A daily rate should be considered for exhibitions not curated by the City that wishes to showcase artwork/images for more than one day, and may negate the proposed hourly rate listed on page 21 .

The Gallery may be rented in between exhibitions for smaller events and art shows . It is estimated there will be four rentals in the first year, for a total estimated revenue of $1,040 . 664
20 Dublin Arts Center Operations Guide Financial Model B. Black Box Theater
Private performance rentals that utilize the
venue as a performance space will generate an
estimated $96,720 annually . This is estimated
at $130/hour for an average of 12 hours or
$1,560 per rental for weekends and six-
hour rentals for rehearsal time on weekdays .

This revenue could increase until maximum
utilization of the facility is achieved .
i . Weekend Performance Rentals: 50 rentals x $1,560 = $78,000 ii . Rehearsal Time: 24 rentals x $780 = $18,720
City co-sponsored performances may occur where revenue from ticket sales is shared with a partner organization . This would equate to four shows per month (weekdays and weekends), generating an estimated $24,000 per year . Revenue could fluctuate based on performance type, as some shows might be community-based and have lower ticket prices, while others might be more specialized and carry a higher ticket price . Additional City expenses, including theater staff, would be considered before a net revenue and cost-share were finalized .

Private rentals for social gatherings would also be available, which differ from performance rentals as these are social events that don’t utilize the space and its performance capabilities . These rentals would fill dates not booked with performances and could generate an estimated $4,680 annually, or $780 per rental ($130/hour for six hours) . This revenue could increase until maximum utilization of the facility is achieved .
i . Private social gatherings: 6 rentals x $780 = $4,680 C. Additional Spaces – Activities and Facility Rentals
Additional space revenues for activities are based on monthly projections using the average number of participants and class pricing averages that have trended in the Parks and Community Services Department over the past few years . The hours allocated to programming are based on how many classes per week can be programmed into each space and designated room occupancies . T o account for holidays and other major events, 11 months is used to determine the projected revenue for the first full year, with the arts yard, averaged at nine months per year in case of inclement weather . The table below outlines the expected revenue for classes/activities, with the City receiving 40%, totaling $235,600 .
