BACKGROUND
The Belvedere-Tiburon Library Agency is proposing to scale back by 6,000 square feet its current
approval for 16,000 square feet in additions to the existing library building, by eliminating the
second-story portion of the previously-approved expansion. This reduction would result in an
expansion of 10,000 square feet for the existing 10,500 square foot library building. If the
proposed expansion is constructed, the total floor area of the library facility would be 20,500
square feet, resulting in slightly less than a doubling of the current floor area. The current design
approval would allow a 26,500 square foot library building.

PERMIT HISTORY
A brief permit history is as follows:
Town Council Meeting
August]S,2018
2008: The Library Agency submits applications for general plan amendment, rezoning, master
plan amendment, and precise plan amendment for purposes of constructing 18,500 square
feet of additions to the existing 10,500 square foot library building. A lengthy
environmental impact report process ensues, followed by numerous well-attended public
hearings before the Planning Commission and Town Council.
2011: Following preparation of the environmental impact report, the Library Agency agrees to
accept Refined Alternative D from the EIR's alternatives analysis section as their project.
The Town Council subsequently approves the project applications subject to conditions of
approval and mitigation measures.
2012: The Town Council adopts Ordinance No. 537 N. S. exempting the library project from
provisions of the Tiburon Zoning Ordinance and establishing a streamlined process for
site planning and design approval. The Town Council subsequently approves the site plan
and architectural drawings for the expansion project; the design approval is for 16,000
square feet of additions and is valid for five years.
2017: The Town Council grants a time extension of five years for the design approval.
2018: The Library Agency submits an application to reduce the size of the project by 6,000
square feet, largely through elimination of the second-story of the approved addition.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT AMENDMENTS
The application form and narrative setting forth the proposed project revisions are attached as
Exhibit 1. The project as revised would eliminate the entire 6,000 square foot partial second-
story portion of the approved 16,000 square foot addition that would have extended from the
existing building toward the Tiburon Town Hall building. Drawings depicting the revised
proposal are attached as Exhibit 2. The floor plan for the second-story portion of the originally-
approved addition is attached as Exhibit 3. The publicly-usable area(excluding storage and
mechanical equipment spaces) was comprised of two stairwells, an elevator shaft, restrooms,
conference rooms, a teen reading/study area, shelves for the fiction and young adult collections, a
magazine/newspaper/quiet study area, and a small balcony overlooking a civic plaza feature
between the Town Hall and Library.
The maximum roof peak height of the proposed addition would be reduced by 10 feet through
elimination of the second story. The remaining ground floor portion of this addition would be
moved back from the Town Hall building an additional four (4) feet, from 48 feet to 52 feet,thus
expanding the proposed public plaza area between the buildings. The entry area to the Library
would be re-worked, and minor changes made to the building footprint adjacent to the civic plaza.
No other substantial changes to the project site plan are proposed. Roof, window, door and other
associated changes to the exterior elevations of the addition are necessary to accommodate the
scaled-back project design, but seek to retain architectural consistency and harmony with the
existing library building.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
An environmental impact report (EIR) for the library expansion project was certified by the Town
Council on October 5, 2011. Town staff reviewed the proposed scaled-back project with respect
to environmental impacts associated with the originally-approved project, and determined that an
ToW'N OF D BITRON Page 2 of 8
Town Council Mecting
August 15,2018
addendum to the certified EIR was appropriate under provisions of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA).
CEQA Guidelines section 15164 states that an addendum should be prepared when none of the
conditions triggering a subsequent EIR or supplemental EIR has occurred. CEQA Guidelines
section 15162 advises that a subsequent or supplemental EIR should be prepared when substantial
changes to the project require major revisions to the EIR because of new significant
environmental effects, a substantial increase in the severity of previously-identified effects, or
when new information of substantial importance has been introduced. The reduced-scale project
that is currently proposed would not result in new significant environmental effects or a
substantial increase in the severity of previously-identified effects for the approved project. Nor
has new information of a substantial nature been introduced that would materially alter the
conclusions of the EIR.
The Addendum identified one mitigation measure (TRANS-6) that warrants revision due to the
significant scaling back of the project, in order to improve clarity, and to reflect changes in
ownership of adjoining property since EIR certification. The original mitigation measure had
required the applicant to ensure the availability of at least 53 off-site parking spaces for use by
Library and Town Hall complex users; that number would be reduced to 33 spaces based on the
reduced project size and the ratio of anticipated vehicles per 1,000 square feet of library proposed
to be added. The Addendum to the certified final EIR for the project is attached as Exhibit 4.
The Addendum concludes that the scaled-back library expansion project would not require any
additional mitigation measures, as no new impacts nor any increase in the severity of impacts
would result, and no new information of substantial importance has been introduced regarding
project effects. No additional CEQA review is required.
POLICY ANALYSIS OF PROJECT MODIFICATIONS
In General
The proposed project revisions are quite straightforward, in that the entire second-story portion of
the previously-approved addition would be eliminated. A pitched roof matching the roof design
of the existing library roof is proposed. The height of this formerly two-story addition would be
reduced from a maximum height of 40 feet to a maximum height of approximately 30 feet. A
similar one-story project design alternative was considered as part of the project's environmental
impact report, specifically Alternative C as analyzed in the Revised Draft Environmental Impact
Report. Only minor changes to the first floor footprint are proposed.
From application materials, it appears the request for design revisions is driven by availability of
funding and unanticipated higher costs associated with construction of the approved project.
Construction costs have risen dramatically in recent years for a variety of reasons and are
anticipated to continue rising in the near future. The architect for the Library Agency will present
the revised building design proposal to the Town Council at the public meeting.
General Plan
The Tiburon General Plan has not meaningfully changed with respect to this project or its site
since the 2011-2012 approvals or the 2017 time extension for the approved design. The Open
Space and Conservation Element of the Tiburon General Plan states that"Ridgelines also provide
TOvy'N OP TIBURON Page 3 of 8
Town Council Meeting
August 15,2018
the greatest opportunity for community scenic value." Elimination of the second story portion of
the library addition would marginally improve consistency with General Plan ridgeline protection
policies by somewhat reducing view blockage of the Tiburon Ridge from vantage points to the
south of the site across Tiburon Boulevard. It appears to staff that a 30 foot tall roof peak(as
proposed) is still likely to at least partially block Tiburon Ridge views from Tiburon Boulevard
itself, based on a review of photographs taken of the story poles for the original design. However
marginally, the adverse impact regarding consistency with General Plan ridgeline view policies
would be reduced, and no additional analysis is warranted. The Town Council adopting findings
over overriding consideration for this unmitigated aesthetic impact and those findings stand.
Zoning Ordinance
As noted above, this project is exempt from provisions of the Tiburon Zoning Ordinance pursuant
to Town of Tiburon Ordinance No. 537 N. S. See Exhibit 5. No further zoning analysis is
warranted.
Town Council Resolution No. 55-2011
This resolution (Exhibit 6) approved the general plan amendment for the project and adopted a
mitigation monitoring program for the library expansion. None of the conditions of approval
from this resolution warrant revision due to the proposed project changes, but one mitigation
measure deserves revision based on the substantially reduced size of the expansion project.
Mitigation Measure TRANS-6 addressed overall parking supply for the Library/Town Hall
complex and required the availability of off-site parking to adequately serve patrons and
employees. The mitigation measure was written for an originally-proposed 28,500 square foot
Library facility upon completion, which would now be reduced to only 20,500 square feet
through the proposed revisions. The recommended revised text of Mitigation Measure TRANS-6
is shown in redline format as follows:
TRANS-6: The applicant will ensure the availability of at least-54 33 off-site parking
spaces for the Library and Town Hall use through the following actions:
Public Parking Spaces
1. Create a minimum of four(4) new parking spaces along Tiburon Boulevard and/or
Mar West Street; AND
2. Place a 2-hour time limit on the eight(8) currently un-timed spaces nearby on Mar
West Street; AND/OR
3. Collaborate with Main' Stfeet Pr-opei4ies the owner of one or more nearby pay-parking
lots to establish an arrangement, subject to acceptance by the Town of Tiburon, which
would to allow short-term parking sod to the euf ent fixed fee a?-'-
par-king) in some or all of the spaces on thei in the lot or lots for potential use by
Library and/or Town Hall users.
Employee Parking Spaces
1. Continue the existing lease arrangement with the owner of the parking lot at 1525
Tiburon Boulevard for parking passes for Town Hall and Library Agency.employees;
OR
2. Collaborate with "jai„ Street nr^perties the owner of the parking lot at 1525 Tiburon
Boulevard to enter into a long-term lease for parking spaces in -that lot, OR to
provide for a partial "decking" of the existing lot to create additional parking spaces;

3. Reserwe Secure Town approval to Rreserve 12-15 parking spaces in the Town-owned
Beach Road tennis court parking lot at the intersection of Beach Road and Marsh
Road for Town Hall and Library employees; AND/OR
4. Adopt a parking permit program that would limit parking on some or all of the
nineteen (19) parking spaces on Mar West Street that are nearest to the Library to
permit holders during the hours the Town Hall and Library are open. Permits would
then be issued solely to Town Hall and Library staff.
Other
1. Create additional on-street parking along the east side Of Mar West Street in the
vicinity of the Library if feasible.
2. Coordinate major events occurring at the Library and Town Hall in order to reduce the
potential for overlapping events.
3. Establish agreements with nearby parking lot owners (e.g. Boardwalk Shopping
Center, Tiburon Peninsula Club, Mai Street Pfoper es etc.),to provide occasional
overflow parking for unusually large or overlapping events.
Staff also notes that during the initial project review process, a number of speakers contended that
the expansion project was overly large in scale, constituting a 270% increase in total floor area
for the library. In approving the general plan amendment, the Town Council stated as follows:
"The building design and architecture shown on said drawings shall be revised to reduce
the excessive mass, bulk and scale as viewed from Tiburon Boulevard. These revisions
will likely require square footage reductions prior to approval of detailed site plan and
architectural drawings by the Town Council. The Town Council intends that these design
and architectural revisions will reduce the significant view blockage impact of the
Tiburon Ridge from Tiburon Boulevard."
While the project additions were reduced in size from 28,500 to approximately 26,500 square feet
during the remaining original review process, the currently-proposed smaller and lower project
would appear to counter many of the earlier criticisms regarding project scale and would
somewhat reduce blockage of scenic views of the Tiburon Ridge from vantage points to the south
and west of the Library facility.
Town Council Resolution No. 26-2012
This resolution(Exhibit 7) approved the site plan and architectural drawings for the project.
Several conditions of approval warrant amendment based on the proposed design modifications.
The suggested amendments are as follows, with revisions redlined:
1. All conditions of approval and mitigation measures contained in and/or adopted by
Town Council Resolution No. 55-2011, except as specifically modified by Town

Belvedere-Tiburon Library Expansion Project: Narrative Description of Revisions
Purpose of the Proposed Revisions:
To align the cost of the Library Expansion Project with fundraising results,the Library Agency has
authorized applications to the Town for a significant modification to the previously-approved design,
which will eliminate the proposed second level and accommodate all essential Library Program uses
within a one-story facility.
The Library's Key Program Goals are Maintained
Doubling the size of the Children's Library.
Creating a Teens Library.
Doubling the size of the meeting spaces and
Doubling the space for administration and library services.
The Key Features of the Proposed Revisions are:
Reduction in built floor area of the expansion from 16,000 to 10,000 square feet.
Reduction in the roof ridge (maximum) height of the addition from 40 feet to approximately 30 feet.
Pulling back the eastern wall of the Library addition 4 feet northward, increasing the distance between
the Town Hall and the Library buildings from 48 to 52 feet and expanding the Civic Plaza area.
Otherwise,there are no significant changes in the footprint of the expansion and no significant changes
to the proposed site work consisting of the Civic Plaza,the promenade to Zelinsky Park,Zelinsky Park
itself, and the parking lot.

INTRODUCTION
This document is an addendum to the Belvedere-Tiburon Library Expansion project Final
Environmental Impact Report(FEIR), which was certified by the Tiburon Town Council on
October 5, 2011. The FEIR consists of the Draft Environmental Impact Report for the project
dated June 2010, the Revised Draft Environmental Impact Report dated March 2011, and the
Final Environmental Impact Report/Response to Comments document dated August 2011. The
FEIR analyzed a total of 18,000 square feet of additions to the existing 10,500 square foot library
building, and well as proposed ancillary improvements surrounding the facility, such as a
parking lot, park area and a public plaza. In November 2011, the Town Council approved a
project based on Refined Alternative D as set forth in the Revised Draft EIR; said alternative
having previously been accepted by the Library Agency as their project in lieu of the original
project design. Refined Alternative D was identified in the certified EIR as the environmentally
superior development alternative. In August 2012, the Town Council approved design drawings
for a 16,000 square foot addition to the library building, resulting in a total square footage of
26,500 square feet assuming project construction and completion. In July 2018, the Library
Agency applied for revisions to the approved design drawings, proposing to scale back the
project by eliminating the entire 6,000 square foot second floor portion of the addition, thus
reducing the project to a total of 20,500 square feet in floor area if completed. The Library
Agency is proposing that the conditions of approval on the design drawings be amended to
reflect the scaled-back project and that any mitigation measures adopted assuming a 28,500
square foot facility be adjusted accordingly to reflect a 20,500 square foot facility upon
completion.
PURPOSE OF THE ADDENDUM
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines section 15164 states that an
addendum should be prepared when none of the conditions triggering a subsequent EIR or
supplemental EIR has occurred. CEQA Guidelines section 15162 advises that a subsequent or
supplemental EIR should be prepared when substantial changes to the project require major
revisions to the EIR because of new significant environmental effects, a substantial increase in
the severity of previously-identified effects, or when new information of substantial importance
has been introduced. The reduced-scale project that is currently proposed would not result in
new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously-
identified effects. Nor has new information of a substantial nature been introduced, separate
from the project revisions, that would materially alter the FEIR conclusions, and this addendum
has been prepared.
Town staff reviewed the proposed reduced-scale project to assess the potential effects on the
environment relative to those previously identified in the 2011 FEIR, and to determine the
Town of Tiburon Addendum to Library Expansion Project FEIR July 2018 Page 2 of 8

continued appropriateness of the associated mitigations adopted by the Town of Tiburon in the
Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project. In all instances, the level of impact associated
with the scaled-back project would be the same or reduced compared to the originally-approved
project.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT REVISIONS
As noted above, the entire second-story of the building addition proposed to be constructed
between the Tiburon Town Hall and the existing library building would be eliminated. The
proposed amendments would eliminate the second story of the addition proposed between the
Library building and the Tiburon Town Hall building, reducing the height of that portion of the
expansion by ten(10) feet and reducing the total floor area of the expansion by 6,000 square feet.
The remaining ground floor portion of this addition would be moved back from the Town Hall
building an additional four (4) feet, from 48 feet to 52 feet, thus expanding the proposed public
plaza area between the buildings. The entry area to the Library would be reworked. No other
substantial changes to the project site plan are proposed.
The proposed project revisions resemble an alternative design (Alternative C) that was analyzed
in the certified EIR. Alternative C (Reduced Library) comprised a 9,000 square foot one-story
addition to the library facility, resulting in a total library facility size of 19,500 square feet upon
completion. In the certified EIR, all potential environmental impact areas associated with
Alternative C were found to be either"less" or"similar"to those impacts identified for the
proposed project. The proposed design revisions maintain the biological impact improvements
gained from Refined Alternative D (the approved project) as compared with the original design
submittal, while also gaining some of the scenic ridgeline view protection benefits that would
have been provided by Alternative C.
EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS FROM PROPOSED REVISIONS
A brief comparison of environmental effects of the originally-approved project to the revised
proposed project follows, as arranged by environmental factor, with a focus on determining
whether new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of
previously-identified effects, would result.
Aesthetics
The FEIR concluded that the project would have a significant and unavoidable impact on a
scenic vista, largely due to the 40-foot tall roof peak associated with the second floor portion of
the easterly addition blocking views to the Tiburon Ridge. The second floor portion is now
proposed for elimination and a 10 foot reduction in height at the roof peak. The Town Council
adopted findings of overriding consideration in approving the project with the second story
Town of Tiburon Addendum to Library Expansion Project FOR July 2018 Page 3 of 8
EXHIBIT p._.11 of °�
element and significant unavoidable aesthetic impacts. The project as revised would marginally
reduce this aesthetic impact, although a 30 foot tall roof peak (as proposed) is still likely to at
least partially block Tiburon Ridge views from Tiburon Boulevard itself, based on a review of
photographs taken of the story poles for the original design. No other potentially significant
aesthetic impacts were identified in the FEIR and the project revisions would not increase the
severity of aesthetic impacts previously determined to be less than significant or upon which the
original project was determined to have no impact. All adopted mitigation measures remain in
effect and no additional mitigation is required.
Air Quality
The FEIR identified two potentially significant air quality impacts. The potential violation of air
quality standards was mitigated to a less than significant level through standardized mitigation
measures involving construction equipment, dust control, and the like. However, the FEIR
concluded that conflict with an air quality plan could not be avoided as long as a general plan
amendment was being sought for the project. The Town Council adopted findings of overriding
consideration in approving the project with a general plan amendment. The amendment
involved re-designating a portion of the project site from Open Space to Public/Quasi-public
designation. The project revisions would have no impact on these effects. No other potentially
significant air quality impacts were identified in the FEIR, and the project revisions would not
increase the severity of air quality impacts previously determined to be less than significant or
upon which the original project was determined to have no impact. All adopted mitigation
measures remain in effect and no additional mitigation is required.
Biological Resources
The FEIR identified three potentially significant biological impacts. The first was that project
development would adversely impact Railroad Marsh and plants and wildlife that inhabit or use
the marsh; the second was that project development could adversely affect special status species
of plants and wildlife or habitat that these species inhabit or use; and the third was potential
impacts on nesting birds. These potential impacts were largely associated with the proposed
parking lot improvements and associated ground disturbance in relatively close proximity to the
marsh, and were mitigated to a less than significant level by a variety of mitigation measures,
including exclusionary fencing and a biological restoration and enhancement plan. The project
revisions would either have no impact on, or would marginally reduce these effects. No other
potentially significant biological impacts were identified in the FEIR, and the project revisions
would not increase the severity of impacts previously determined to be less than significant or
upon which the original project was determined to have no impact. All adopted mitigation
measures remain in effect and no additional mitigation is required.

Hydrology and Water Quality
The FEIR identified five potentially significant impacts to hydrology and water quality, all of
which were reduced to less than significant levels through imposition of mitigation measures.
These included potential violation of water quality standards or water discharge requirements;
altering existing drainage patterns or increasing the rate of runoff, exceeding the capacity of
existing or planned stormwater drainage systems or providing additional sources of polluted
runoff; potentially degrading water quality; and exposing people or structures to significant risk
involving flooding. The project revisions would have no impact on these effects. No other
potentially significant hydrological or water quality impacts were identified in the FEIR, and the
project revisions would not increase the severity of impacts previously determined to be less than
significant or upon which the original project was determined to have no impact. All adopted
mitigation measures remain in effect. It should be noted that the flood zone maps issued by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) have been revised since the project was
originally approved; said revisions raised the base flood elevation on the project site by one foot
to 10 feet North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). The adopted mitigation measure
requiring the raising of the berm separating the library from Railroad Marsh to a minimum
elevation of 10.5 NAVD88 remains in effect. In addition, as with all new construction and
substantial improvement projects, the project must comply with the Town of Tiburon's Flood
Damage Prevention Ordinance, which would require either flood-proofing or raised elevation for
the existing structure and its additions, absent the granting of a flood variance. This general
requirement would be reinforced through a modified condition of approval imposed on the
project's design drawing approval.
Land Use and Planning
No potentially significant impacts were identified in the FEIR in this topical category, and no
mitigation measures were required. The project revisions would have no impact on these already
less than significant effects and no additional mitigation is required.
Noise
The FEIR identified three potentially significant adverse noise impacts from the project, two of
which were found to be significant and unavoidable. The latter were exposure of persons to or
generation of ground borne vibration or ground borne noise levels, and substantial temporary or
periodic increases in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity. Both impacts were associated
with construction activity during the building of the library addition. The Town Council adopted
findings of overriding consideration in approving the project with these construction-related
impacts. A third potentially significant impact was exposure of people to noise; this impact was
reduced to less than significant levels through imposition of mitigation measures, including
limits on hours of construction, muffling of heavy equipment, minimizing simultaneous use of
Town of Tiburon Addendum to Library Expansion Project FEIR July 2018 Page 5 of 8
EXHIBIT p. of�
noisy equipment, and the like. The scaled back project would either have no impact on or would
reduce project noise impacts. No other potentially significant noise impacts were identified in
the FEIR, and the scaled back project would not increase the severity of noise impacts previously
determined to be less than significant or upon which the original project was determined to have
no impact. All adopted mitigation measures remain in effect and no additional mitigation is
required.
Transportation/Traffic
The FEIR identified four potentially significant transportation or traffic-related impacts, all of
which were reduced to less than significant levels through imposition of mitigation measures.
The potentially significant impacts included inadequate parking capacity; decreased level of
service at the Mar West Street/Tiburon Boulevard intersection; inadequacy of the Tiburon
Boulevard left turn pocket stacking distance onto Mar West Street; and a variety of potential
impacts should widening of Tiburon Boulevard be required for lengthening of the left turn
pocket from Tiburon Boulevard onto Mar West Street. Scaling back of the project by 6,000
square feet would reduce potential impacts for all four of these originally-identified potentially
significant effects. Based on standardized trip generation rates, fewer library-related vehicle
trips would pass through the Mar West Street/Tiburon Boulevard intersection and fewer vehicles
would require use of an extended left-turn pocket on Tiburon Boulevard at that intersection
under the scaled back project. The adopted mitigation measures and conditions of approval
related to these three impacts would remain in place and no additional mitigation would be
required.
With respect to inadequate parking capacity, based on parking standards used in the FEIR the
scaled-back project would have a substantially reduced effect on parking in adequacy for the
combined Belvedere-Tiburon Public Library and Tiburon Town Hall uses, which share on-site
parking facilities. The FEIR identified an on-site parking shortage for the originally-proposed
project and required the availability of additional off-site parking spaces as mitigation.
Mitigation Measure TRANS-6 identified a shortage of 53 parking spaces for the combined Town
Hall and Library uses based on a 28,500 square foot library building upon project completion.
The revised project now proposes a 20,500 square foot library building upon project completion.
Using the FEIR standard of 2.61 vehicles per 1,000 square feet of library floor area, a 20,500
square foot library would generate demand for 54 parking spaces as compared to 74 spaces for a
28,500 square foot library (see Attachment 1; Table IV.H-6 from the Revised Draft
Environmental Impact Report). Added to the Town Hall-generated demand of 31 parking
spaces, the combined on-site parking shortfall for the two uses would be reduced by 20 spaces,
thereby reducing the number of off-site parking spaces required by mitigation measure TRANS-
6 from 53 to 33 spaces. Modification of mitigation measure TRANS-6 to require the availability
of 20 fewer off-site parking spaces, and to update the mitigation measure for clarity and to reflect
Town of Tiburon Addendum to Library Expansion Project FEIR July 2018 Page 6 of 8
EXHIBIT p. L of � _
changes in property ownership of adjoining parcels, is therefore appropriate. Mitigation Measure
TRANS-6 is modified to read as follows:
TRANS-6: The applicant will ensure the availability of at least 33 off-site parking spaces
for the Library and Town Hall use through the following actions:
Public Parking Spaces
1. Create a minimum of four(4) new parking spaces along Tiburon Boulevard and/or
Mar West Street; AND
2. Place a 2-hour time limit on the eight(8) currently un-timed spaces nearby on Mar
West Street; AND/OR
3. Collaborate with the owner of one or more nearby pay-parking lots to establish an
arrangement, subject to acceptance by the Town of Tiburon, which would allow
short-term parking in some or all of the spaces in the lot or lots for potential use by
Library and/or Town Hall users.
Employee Parking Spaces
1. Continue the existing lease arrangement with the owner of the parking lot at 1525
Tiburon Boulevard for parking passes for Town Hall and Library Agency employees;
OR
2. Collaborate with the owner of the parking lot at 1525 Tiburon Boulevard to enter into
a long-term lease for parking spaces in that lot, OR to provide for a partial "decking"
of the existing lot to create additional parking spaces; AND/OR
3. Secure Town approval to reserve 12-15 parking spaces in the Town-owned Beach
Road tennis court parking lot at the intersection of Beach Road and Marsh Road for
Town Hall and Library employees; AND/OR
4. Adopt a parking permit program that would limit parking on some or all of the
nineteen (19) parking spaces on Mar West Street that are nearest to the Library to
permit holders during the hours the Town Hall and Library are open. Permits would
then be issued solely to Town Hall and Library staff.
Other
1. Create additional on-street parking along Mar West Street in the vicinity of the
Library if feasible.
2. Coordinate major events occurring at the Library and Town Hall in order to reduce
the potential for overlapping events.
3. Establish agreements with nearby parking lot owners (e.g. Boardwalk Shopping
Center, Tiburon Peninsula Club, etc.), to provide occasional overflow parking for
unusually large or overlapping events.
All other transportation or traffic-related impacts were found in the FEIR to be less than
significant or to have no impact, and the project revisions would not increase the severity of
transportation or traffic-related impacts previously determined to be less than significant or upon
which the original project was determined to have no impact. Reducing the scale of the library
expansion by 6,000 square feet would be expected to reduce any such impacts even further.

EXHIBIT p.a of
CONCLUSION
The scaled back library expansion project would not require any additional mitigation measures
as no new impacts or any increase in the severity of impacts would result, and no new
information of substantial importance has been introduced regarding project effects. Revisions
to one mitigation measure (TRANS-6) regarding provision of additional off-site parking
availability are warranted given the decrease of 6,000 square feet for the revised project.

ORDINANCE NO. 537 N. S.
AN ORDINANCE OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE
TOWN OF TIBURON ESTABLISHING REVIEW AND DECISION-MAKING
PROCEDURES FOR THE BELVEDERE-TIBURON
PUBLIC LIBRARY EXPANSION REVISED PROJECT
AND EXEMPTING SAID PROJECT FROM ALL PROVISIONS
OF THE TIBURON ZONING ORDINANCE AS SET FORTH IN TITLE IV,
CHAPTER 16 OF THE TIBURON MUNICIPAL CODE
The Town Council of the Town of Tiburon does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. PURPOSE AND INTENT
The Belvedere-Tiburon Library Agency(BTLA) owns and operates a public library at the
corner of Tiburon Boulevard and Mar West Street, on property commonly known as 1501
Tiburon Boulevard and further identified as Marin County Assessor Parcels 058-171-93, 94 and
a portion of 058-171-62. In 2004, the Tiburon Town Council approved a general plan
amendment, rezoning, master plan amendment, and precise plan amendment for the construction
of additions to the existing Library building. The Town Council also adopted a mitigated
negative declaration of environmental impact for the additions to the Library as set forth in those
approvals.
In September 2005, the Town Council adopted an updated general plan known as Tiburon
2020, which set forth the following policy and program regarding the Library:
➢ Downtown Element Policy DT-35: Support an appropriate expansion of the
Belvedere-Tiburon Public Library adjacent to Zelinsky Park.
➢ Downtown Element Program DT-u: Facilitate expansion of the Belvedere-
Tiburon Public Library by employing streamlined permit review processes
typically used for major public projects.
In July 2007, the Town Council entered into an agreement with BTLA to transfer
property adjacent to the public improvements known as Zelinsky Park for the purpose of
expanding the library as contemplated by the general plan. The Agreement provided that the
Library addition project would be subject to the Town's normally applicable laws and
regulations, except as may be waived or modified by ordinance of the Town Council. The Town
retains its discretion to process and approve, conditionally approve or deny all land use
applications as provided by law.
Town of Tiburon Ordinance No. 537 N.S. Effective 03/02/2012 1
M `„eV
In July 2008, the BTLA decided to pursue a substantially different project(hereinafter
"Revised Project"), that proposes the primary additions to be located in the parking lot between
the existing Library and Tiburon Town Hall. Legislative land use entitlements for the Revised
Project are currently being processed by the Town, with Town Council approval anticipated prior
to January 1, 2012. The Town Council has certified an environmental impact report for the
Revised Project. The BTLA has requested, and the Town Council has initiated, the process to
adopt an ordinance establishing streamlined Town review and decision-making procedures for
the Revised Project, including exemption from provisions of the Tiburon Zoning Ordinance.
Pursuant to the provisions of Tiburon's Zoning Ordinance, the Revised Project would be
required to secure conditional use permit approval by the Planning Commission, and site plan
and architectural approval by the Design Review Board(DRB)prior to the issuance of a building
permit. However, the Town Council finds it appropriate to adopt this ordinance to establish a
streamlined decision-making procedure for the Revised Project, because of(1) the extraordinary
public interest served by the Revised Project (2) the above-listed general plan policy and program
regarding the expansion of the Library; and (3) the need to preserve scarce public monies by
minimizing the expense required to comply with the Town's laws and regulations while still
meeting the intent thereof.
SECTION 2. EXEMPTION FROM ZONING ORDINANCE
The Revised Project shall be exempt from all provisions of the Tiburon Zoning
Ordinance, codified as Title IV, Chapter 16 of the Tiburon Municipal Code.
SECTION 3. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Adoption of this Ordinance has no potential to result in a significant impact on the
environment pursuant to Section 15061(b) (3)of the Guidelines for the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) and is therefore exempt from review. Furthermore, the Town has
previously certified an environmental impact report for the Revised Project, and adoption of this
Ordinance makes no changes to the Revised Project that would require further review under
CEQA.
SECTION 4. FINDINGS
The Town Council finds as follows:
(A) The Planning Commission held a duly noticed and advertised public hearing on
December 14, 2011, at which testimony was received from the public; and thereafter
recommended adoption of the ordinance to the Town Council.
(B) The Town Council held a duly noticed public hearing on January 18, 2012 and heard
and considered public testimony on this item.

(C) The Town Council finds that the proposed ordinance would be consistent with the
goals, policies, and programs of the Tiburon General Plan, as set forth in the Staff
Report dated January 18, 2012.
(D) The Town Council finds that the proposed ordinance is consistent with the objectives
set forth in the Zoning Ordinance.
SECTION 5. REVIEW AND DECISION-MAKING PROCEDURES ESTABLISHED
Development applications for the Revised Project shall be reviewed pursuant to the
following procedures:
(A) The Town Council shall hold one or more public meetings on the
application to review and, if appropriate, approve or conditionally approve the site plan,
architectural, and related drawings for the project. This review shall include the building
additions, landscaping, parking and other ancillary improvements. In conducting its
review and evaluation of the application, the Town Council shall utilize those guiding
principles, design review guidelines,purposes and special considerations that the
Planning Commission and Design Review Board would have normally applied to
applications for a conditional use permit and site plan and architectural review absent the
adoption of this streamlined processing procedure.
(B) At any time during the process, the Town Council may, as deemed
appropriate, refer the application to the Planning Commission, Design Review Board, or
any other Council-appointed Committee for that body's expeditious input,
recommendations, or analysis. Such referrals shall be advisory and not binding on the
Town Council.
(C) Prior to any work on the site, the BTLA must apply for and the Town
Building Official must review and issue any building permits required by law pursuant to
an approved development application.
(D) Prior to any work on the site, the BTLA must apply for and the Town
Engineer must review and approve an encroachment permit for any work associated with
the project that is proposed on Town land or street right-of-way.
(E) The processing of the applications shall be exempt from all Town planning.
and permit fees except that BLTA shall pay any costs the Town incurs from outside
vendors or consultants, or where the Town Manager has determined that such costs are
necessary or appropriate to process the applications.

RESOLUTION NO. 55-2011
A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF TIBURON
APPROVING GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH A PROPOSED
EXPANSION OF THE BELVEDERE-TIBURON PUBLIC LIBRARY
LOCATED AT 1501 TIBURON BOULEVARD
The Town Council of the Town of Tiburon does hereby resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, the Town of Tiburon is in receipt of an application(File#GPA
2008-02) for general plan amendments to modify the text of Policy OSC-20 of the Open
Space and Conservation Element regarding setbacks from wetlands, and to re-designate
certain lands on the Tiburon General Plan Land Use Diagram 2.2-1 as follows:
1. Approximately 16,250 square feet of land located north of and directly behind
the existing BTLA property at 1501 Tiburon Boulevard and the Town Hall
property at 1505 Tiburon Boulevard from Open Space to Public/Quasi-Public
for the purposes of expanding the existing Library facility; and
2. Approximately 11,750 square feet of the existing Tiburon Town Hall parcel at
1505 Tiburon Boulevard from Neighborhood Commercial to Public/Quasi-
Public to correct a prior mapping error; and
WHEREAS, the Tiburon Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing
on September 14, 2011, heard testimony from interested persons, and adopted Resolution
No. 2011-15 making recommendations to the Town Council concerning the proposed
general plan amendments; and
WHEREAS, the Town Council held a duly noticed public hearing on October 5,
2011, at which testimony was received and considered from interested persons. The
Town Council also received and considered the recommendations of the Planning
Commission; and
WHEREAS, the Town Council has previously by separate resolution certified an
Environmental Impact Report for the Library expansion project, including the general
plan amendments contemplated herein; and
WHEREAS, the Town Council has previously by separate resolution adopted
Findings of Fact pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act and has adopted
findings of overriding considerations to approve the project despite remaining significant
environmental effects; and
Tiburon Town Council Resolution No. 55-2011 1112/2011 1
d J 6
WHEREAS, the Town Council agrees with the Planning Commission's
recommendation that the proposed amendment to Policy OSC-20 regarding a 100-foot
buffer between wetlands and development is unnecessary,because the Council finds the
following:
1. The policy is intended to be sufficiently flexible to permit a project that
encroaches into the 100-foot setback, if the biological impact to the nearby wetland
(Railroad Marsh) would be mitigated to a less-than-significant level. The Council agrees
with the EIR that the proposed mitigation measures will mitigate the impact on the
Railroad Marsh to a level of insignificance.
2. The project is consistent with Policy OSC-20 because the 100-foot setback
specified in the Policy is not feasible at this location. A 100-foot setback line from the
Marsh.shoreline is depicted at p. 80 of the Final EIR, and demonstrates that
approximately 30 of the 52 spaces depicted in the proposed parking lot would encroach
into the 100-foot buffer. Furthermore, there would be insufficient space to create a
workable circulation flow for the remaining parking spaces, resulting in the virtual
elimination of on-site parking. Even if Town required the Library to reduce the size of
the expansion, the Library could not significantly reduce the extent of the encroachment.
Accordingly, neither the original project nor any of the "build" alternatives examined by
the EIR would be feasible if the Town requires a 100-foot buffer.
3. The presence of a 15-foot wide utility easement directly behind the
existing Library building, said easement holding the outfall pipe for the multiple-agency
Sewerage Agency of Southern Marin(SASM), further limits other opportunities for
structural expansion behind the Library building.
WHEREAS, the Town Council finds that the proposed General Plan amendments
are, on balance, consistent with the goals and objectives of the Tiburon General Plan, as
set forth in the certified EIR for the project and the staff reports dated September 14, 2011
and October 5, 2011. Specifically, the Town Council finds that the public library use
would serve a very broad segment of the Tiburon Peninsula's population and is
reasonable justification for the necessary general plan amendments.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Town Council of the Town of
Tiburon does hereby amend General Plan Diagram 2.2-1 (Land Use Diagram) to re-
designate the approximately 16,250 square feet of land, as depicted on attached Exhibit
"A", comprising a portion of Lot 10 of the Point Tiburon Subdivision, from OS (Open
Space) to P (Public/Quasi-Public).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Town Council of the Town of Tiburon
does hereby amend General Plan Diagram 2.2-1 (Land Use Diagram) to re-designate the
approximately 11,750 square feet of land, as depicted on attached Exhibit`B",
comprising a portion of Marin County Assessor Parcel 58-171-92, from NC
(Neighborhood Commercial) to P (Public/Quasi-Public).

Architecture, depicting the Refined Alternate D project. Said drawings,
date-stamped "Received September 28, 2011 Planning Division" are
available for review in the offices of the Town of Tiburon Community
Development Department. The building design and architecture shown on
said drawings shall be revised to reduce the excessive mass,bulk and scale
as viewed from Tiburon Boulevard. These revisions will likely require
square footage reductions prior to approval of detailed site plan and
architectural drawings by the Town Council. The Town Council intends
that these design and architectural revisions will reduce the significant
view blockage impact of the Tiburon Ridge from Tiburon Boulevard.
2) A Native American monitor and a qualified archaeologist shall be present
during construction grading and trenching. In the event that additional
subsurface archaeological resources are encountered during the course of
grading and/or excavation, all development shall temporarily cease in these
areas until the Town's Planning Division is contacted and a qualified
archaeologist properly assesses the resources and makes recommendations
for their disposition. Prehistoric archaeological site indicators include:
obsidian and chert flakes and chipped stone tools; grinding and mashing
implements (e.g., slabs and handstones, and mortars and pestles); bedrock
outcrops and boulders with mortar cups; and locally darkened midden
soils. Midden soils may contain a combination of any of the previously
listed items with the possible addition of bone and shell remains, and fire
affected stones. Historic period site indicators generally include: fragments
of glass, ceramic, and metal objects; milled and split lumber; and structure
and feature remains such as building foundations and discrete trash
deposits (e.g., wells,privy pits, dumps). Construction activities could
continue in other areas. If any findings are determined to be significant by
the archeologist, they shall be subject to scientific analysis;
duration/disposition of archaeological specimens as agreed to by the
Native American community, land owner, and the Town; and a report
prepared according to current professional standards. The project sponsor
shall bear all reasonable costs associated with such monitoring,
assessment, and disposition of artifacts.

3) If human remains are encountered, excavation or disturbance of the
location shall be halted in the vicinity of the find, and the county coroner
contacted. If the coroner determines the-remains are Native American, the
coroner shall contact the Native American Heritage Commission. The
Native American Heritage Commission shall identify the person or persons
believed to be most likely descended from the deceased Native American.
The most likely descendent shall make recommendations regarding the
treatment of the remains with appropriate dignity.
4) To secure an additional water entitlement, the project sponsor shall
complete a Water Service Application and pay any required fees or the
project sponsor shall transfer an unused entitlement from another site.
5) Prior to issuance of a building permit,the Town and Library Agency shall
agree upon, and the Library Agency shall pay to the Town, a reasonable
monetary contribution toward signalization or other safety and/or capacity
improvements, including possible installation of a rotary/traffic circle, at
the Tiburon Boulevard/Mar West Street intersection.
6) Any detailed site plan and architectural drawings subsequently submitted
pursuant to this approval shall depict parallel parking spaces along Tiburon
Boulevard in front of the pedestrian plaza area proposed between Tiburon
Town Hall and the Library addition. The Town Council may, in its sole
discretion, choose to establish a"no parking zone" along Tiburon
Boulevard, approximately 40 feet in length, in this area.
7) The project sponsor shall absorb all reasonable costs for the relocation of
the Landmarks Society's pictorial exhibit located near the intersection of
Tiburon Boulevard and Mar West Street to another appropriate location, if
feasible, to approximate the vantage point shown in the pictorial exhibit.
8) A minimum of two (2)handicap-accessible parking spaces shall be
installed along the Tiburon Boulevard frontage of the project to off-set the
loss of such spaces in close proximity to the Town Hall front entrance.
The Library Agency shall be responsible for all costs associated with
installation of these parking spaces, including any ramps between the street
and plaza levels that may be necessary to accommodate wheelchairs.

MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM
BELVEDERE-TIBURON LIBRARY EXPANSION PROJECT
INTRODUCTION
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires a public agency to adopt a monitoring
program when approving a project in order to mitigate or avoid significant effects on the
environment (Public Resources Code section 21081.6). The program is based on the findings
and the adopted mitigation measures presented in an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) that
has been prepared on the project and certified by the lead agency. The program must be
designed to ensure compliance during project implementation.
.Pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines, a Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) must cover the
following:
The MMP must identify the entity that is responsible for each monitoring and reporting task,
be it the Town of Tiburon (as lead agency), other agency (responsible or trustee agency), or
a private entity (i.e., the project sponsor).
The MMP must be based on the project description and the required mitigation measures
presented in the environmental document prepared for the project and certified by the lead
agency.
• The MMP must be approved by the lead agency at the same time of project entitlement
action or approvals.
MMP's are typically designed in chart and checklist format for ease of monitoring.
PURPOSE AND USE OF THE MONITORING PROGRAM
The purpose of the monitoring program is to provide the Town of Tiburon with a simple guideline
of procedures to ensure that the required mitigation measures are implemented. Since each
required mitigation measure must be implemented, a monitoring chart was created,which is
attached hereto. This chart provides the following information and direction for use.
1) The mitigation number from the Final EIR is listed in the first column.
2) The required mitigation measures are listed in the second column.
3) The third column lists the timing as to when the mitigation measure is to be implemented.
4) The fourth column lists the agency or entity responsible for implementing the mitigation
measure.
5) The fifth column lists the monitoring agency or entity.
6) The sixth column lists the sanctions if the mitigation measure is not implemented.

TIBURON TOWN COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO.09-2017 04/19/2017 2
RESOLUTION NO. XX-2018
A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF TIBURON
AMENDING THE APPROVAL OF SITE PLAN AND ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS
FOR THE BELVEDERE-TIBURON LIBRARY EXPANSION PROJECT
ON PROPERTY AT 1501 AND 1505 TIBURON BOULEVARD BY MODIFYING
CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL SET FORTH IN
TOWN COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 26-2012 AND A MITIGATION MEASURE SET
FORTH IN TOWN COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 55-2011
(APN 058-171-92 93 & 94 AND A PORTION OF 058-171-62)
WHEREAS, on October 5, 2011, the Town Council certified an environmental
impact report for a proposed expansion of the Belvedere-Tiburon Public Library building,
said project being located on land at 1501 and 1505 Tiburon Boulevard; and
WHEREAS, on November 2, 2011, the Town Council adopted Resolution No. 55-
2011 approving general plan amendments and a mitigation monitoring program associated
with the proposed expansion of the library building and the certified environmental impact
report for the expansion project; and
WHEREAS, on February 1, 2012 the Town Council adopted Ordinance No. 537 N. S.
establishing review and decision-making procedures for a proposed expansion of the
Belvedere-Tiburon Library building. The ordinance exempts the expansion project from
provisions of the Tiburon Zoning Ordinance, but requires the Town Council to review the
site plan and architectural drawings for the project at a public meeting prior to approval; and
WHEREAS, on July 25, 2012, the Town Council held a public meeting to review the
site plan and architectural drawings for the library expansion project, and on August 1, 2012,
adopted Resolution No. 26-2012 approving the site plan and architectural drawings for the
library expansion project; and
WHEREAS, on April 19, 2017, the Town Council held a public meeting and
approved a 5-year extension of the site plan and architectural approval (without any revisions
to the project) by adopting Resolution No. 09-2017; and
WHEREAS, the Belvedere-Tiburon Library Agency ("Library Agency") is proposing
revisions to the previously-approved site plan and architectural drawings for the library
expansion project and modification of one of the adopted mitigation measures for the project.
The original approval would have increased the floor area of the existing Belvedere-Tiburon
Library building by 16,000 square feet to a total of 26,500 square feet. The proposed
revisions to the previously-approved project would constitute a reduction in floor area of the
previously-approved library building expansion by 6,000 square feet, resulting in a building
of 20,500 square feet in lieu of the originally-approved 26,500 square feet and concomitantly
reducing the demand for parking associated with the project; and
Tiburon Town Council Resolution No.XX-2018 Adopted--1--/2018 1
ate; NO
WHEREAS, the Town Council has determined, based on an EIR addendum dated
July 2018, that no additional environmental review is required for this scaled-back library
expansion project; and
WHEREAS, after hearing all testimony and reviewing all documents on the record,
the Town Council finds that the revised expansion project, as conditioned, is consistent with
the goals and objectives of the Tiburon General Plan and is in compliance with criteria of
review and other provisions set forth in Ordinance No. 537 N. S.

Why would you be spending money on this when physical books are a remnant of the past? Have
you heard of the internet? Everything is online now. What a waste of tax payer money! !

Subject: library feedback
I saw in the town newsletter that you are soliciting feedback on the library expansion. I am glad they are
reducing the expansion plans and I am opposed to spending tax dollars on this project (even if they are not
incremental taxes - our town has many priorities and I do not view library expansion as one of them).
I am also concerned that a larger library will have bigger operating costs (staffing, utilities, etc) and this will
have an ongoing impact on our town budget. I do not know that this issue has been addressed when the library
foundation says that all costs associated with the expansion will be covered with private donations.
We love the library. We use it all the time, checking out books and movies. The current library serves our
needs completely.
Thank you,
Tracey

Subject: Library Expansion
Hi Scott:
When the revised plans are revealed at the council meeting on Aug 15th, it would be helpful
to the audience to see the current footprint laid over the expanded version.
I had hoped that the parking could have been revised. I see that there is now additional
footage between the town hall and the library - is there enough space to retain parking for
those using the town hall? The proposed parking - behind the library and bordering on the
. mash - I think is totally unsatisfactory for those using town hall and I wonder why no one
objected during the planning phase.
Thanks Scott. I look forward to attending the meeting.
