Downtown Dublin Specific Plan

On July 21, 2026, Dublin City Council approved an amendment to the First Amended and Restated Community Benefit Program Agreement and the Amended and Restated Affordable Housing Assistance Agreement with The Related Companies of California LLC to extend the Residential Allocation Terms for the Amador Station project, a planned 300-unit affordable housing development on Golden Gate Drive adjacent to the West Dublin/Pleasanton BART Station within the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan area. The amendment is intended to support Related’s ongoing efforts to secure funding for the project without requiring additional environmental review, as the project remains within the scope of the originally certified Environmental Impact Report for the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan, which was approved by City Council Resolution No. 08-11 on February 1, 2011, and complies with CEQA Guidelines section 15168. All project conditions, including previously adopted mitigation measures and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, continue to apply under the amended agreements. The Amador Station project is governed under Project Application Number PLPA-2021-00019, and its regulatory framework is tied to the approved Downtown Dublin Specific Plan, ensuring alignment with municipal land use goals and environmental commitments. The City of Dublin, through its Community Development Department led by Amy Million, maintains oversight and coordination for the project’s implementation. The amendment does not alter the fundamental scope or location of the development, which is situated in the designated urban infill area of Dublin, California, with a ZIP code of 94568, and continues to rely on the environmental review already completed under State Clearinghouse number 20100022005. No further CEQA documentation is required, and the project remains subject to the conditions and obligations established in the original agreements and subsequent amendments.
