<br /> Traffic and Parking
<br /> The Traffic Engineering Division has reviewed the project narrative and plans prepared for the
<br /> proposed religious facility, and has determined the proposed hours of operation, planned
<br /> activities and the associated number of congregants and staff would not have a significant
<br /> impact on existing traffic levels. Additionally, the activities for the proposed religious facility
<br /> would not coincide with the peak AM/PM hour traffic levels for the other uses at the subject site
<br /> and the surrounding area. However, should the applicant wish to increase the proposed
<br /> planned activities and/or alter the hours stated in its narrative, review by the City's Traffic
<br /> Engineer would be required to assess whether a traffic study would be required and whether
<br /> additional payment of traffic fees and implementation of other mitigation measures would be
<br /> warranted. Uses that could coincide with peak AM/PM traffic, such as a preschool or daycare
<br /> are not permitted under the current application, and would require a separate review and
<br /> approval if desired in the future.
<br /> As part of the site improvements, the applicant is proposing to construct 121 parking spaces
<br /> on the subject site. No parking is allowed on Dublin Canyon Road. The Municipal Code

<br />ng the interior perimeter of the
<br /> site as well as within the parking lot area.
<br /> Based on concerns discussed at the work session regarding screening of the parking lot, staff
<br /> including the City's landscape Architect worked with the applicant to review the plans and
<br /> believe the proposed landscape palette along Dublin Canyon Road directly in front of the
<br /> proposed parking is appropriate to screen the parking. The proposed plants to be utilized for
<br /> screening are summarized in Table 2, and, in addition to the trees to be planted, include
<br /> shrubs and perennials with dense foliage and a mature height of three to six feet, intended to
<br /> provide screening of vehicles parked within the parking lot, which sits between 1 to 2 feet
<br /> above the finished grade of Dublin Canyon Road decreasing from east to west. Overall, staff
