similar questions about a comparable Starbucks location. I think that's something that I'm not completely comfortable about in terms of the analysis that's been done, but in terms of the queue lengths and the level of service analysis that's been done, we are accepting that at this point in the project. Commissioner Nagler: So the other impacts that are clear are the obvious ones —the ones on Johnson Court and on Larkspur Landing Drive or whatever it's called, so on either end of this development and the service levels change by at least one grade in each of those streets by virtue of this development, right? Weinstein: So in some of the other scenarios, the level of service changes by more than one grade, but what's happening in the existing plus approved conditions is that the level of service is not going beyond level of service D, so there are some cases in certain intersections with the project that the level of service is moving down a grade, but that's not considered a significant impact because that doesn't cause the level of service to go below D. So what we're saying is our impacts only in the cumulative scenario which is not only existing plus approved projects but foreseeable projects in the future. Typically the cumulative condition encompasses General Plan buildout as well. So if that's worsening those are the significant impacts that require mitigation. Beaudin: And the mitigations when they are cumulative are what we're collecting our traffic impact fee to attempt to mitigate over time. Commissioner Nagler: Right, and that gets back to things like right turn only. Okay, thank you. Commissioner Brown: Sorry, but I have a couple of quick questions. Where's the IKEA in Dublin going? Commissioner O'Connor: Down on Fallon. Commissioner Brown: Fallon? Okay. What was the reason for restricting the uses so specifically? What was the rationale there? Luchini: So actually that was a call made by the applicant and he'd be better off to speak about that, but I think staff's initial recommendation that we would be comfortable if they selected an applicable zoning district that already had an established list of uses such as C -C or the C -F. Commissioner Brown: Okay, I'll ask them. And my final question was, looking at the diagram there's sort of the hairpin turn around versus going just straight out. My comment is that if somebody's going to drive through its because they want to leave and they don't want to park and right now the plan has the traffic from the drive -thru coming back around the building back in front of all the parking and people are backing out and then crossing into the lane of traffic trying to enter the drive -thru. So what I was wondering was why you just didn't go directly west and come down that other driveway? Luchini: There actually is a driveway there directly west.... right here.
