A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF TIBURON
AMENDING THE APPROVAL OF SITE PLAN AND ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS

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. 35-2018 Adopted 08/15/2018 1
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.
