Open Space Initiative: Water Supply and Wastewater Service Evaluations

The Dublin Open Space Initiative of 2014 was adopted by the Dublin City Council on June 3, 2014. The stated purpose of the initiative was to protect, amongst other areas, the open spaces and agriculture of the Doolan and Collier Canyons area. This area is enclosed by the Dublin Eastern Urban Limit Line, Interstate 580, the Livermore city boundary, the eastern boundary of Collier Canyon, and the Alameda County-Contra Costa County boundary as shown in Figure 1 below. This area is located outside the City Limits and Sphere of Influence and is not in any of the City’s Planning Areas. The policies, regulations, and development standards adopted as part of the Dublin Open Space Initiative apply only when property in the designated area is annexed into Dublin. Furthermore, these policies, regulations, and development standards can only be repealed or amended by the voters of Dublin.
