The cities in the Tri-valley have their plans in and there's some onus on the authority for them to be reviewed and give the feedback which apparently hasn't been done. Dublin would be the one that would surprise me if they had a problem. They're one of the fastest growing cities in California and have built a lot of housing in the past ten years. I can't say I love what Dublin has become but they've done the building.

Dublin really pissed off their neighbors in doing so (looking at you, Livermore) because all the cities surrounding it wanted to stay small.

I don't think what they did is particularly attractive or inviting but they certainly executed high density housing. The Livermore problem was mostly about trying to expand even farther east and then bitching about the airport where they built houses under the flight pattern.

Hohoho, you should see the communication between them and the airport land use commission...

They don't have much of a leg to stand on considering the city it's located in is pro airport and the FAA will flex too. The number of airports we have around the bay is not high and they're an important part of disaster preparedness including wildfires. Dublin can bitch all they want but it's not like that airport just snuck in while they weren't looking.

Well yeah, you don't mess with ALUPs or the airport land use commission. That's just dumb and a waste of time. Also, they take so long to respond, sometimes worse than coastal commission. OH and if your project will require a CDP and is within an ALUP area...
