RE: Town of Tiburon Smoking Regulations - - -End of Grace Period • • •
for Smokers with Pre - existing Leases Jim Fraser
Councilmember
Emmett O'Donnell
In August, 2011 the Town of Tiburon mailed you or your predecessor a letter Councilmember
(attached) containing information regarding Smoking Regulations adopted by the • • • .
Tiburon Town Council, including a copy of the Smoking Ordinance. Erin Tollini
Councilmember
This letter serves as a reminder that the nearly 3 -year "grace period" applying to
smokers with existing leases, described in Item 3 of the August 2011 letter, expires on
July 1, 2014. In short, all units in apartment complexes containing four (4) or more Margaret A. Curran
units must be non - smoking units as of July 1, 2014. This smoking prohibition Town Manager
includes the interior of all units and any patios, balconies, and decks associated with
the units, as well as all common areas of an apartment complex. An on -site designated
smoking area may be established if it meets all the requirements set forth in the
Town's ordinance.
This is also a reminder that any new lease, lease extension, lease renewal, or other
agreement for the occupancy of a unit entered into after August 19, 2011 requires the
unit leased (including associated balconies, patios, and decks) to be non - smoking.
California Apartment Association Form 34.0, revised January 2007, may be used to
comply with this provision. Please ensure that all of your lease forms for apartment
located in the Town of Tiburon contain, at a minimum, these provisions or their
equivalent.
Please refer to the attached letter and ordinance for full details and particulars. Should
you have any questions, please call me at (415) 435 -7392.
Very
truly �yours,
Scott Anderson

TIBURON RESIDENT: ('ears) 22 DATE SUBMITTED: May 19, 2014
REASONSFOR'SELECTING "
YOUR A'� T
As a 22 -year Tiburon resident and home owner, I have often enjoyed the many narks, open
spaces and trails that Tiburon has to offer. In particular, my dogs and I enjoy on an almost daily
basis Blackie's Pasture the Old Rail Trail and my 17 -month old puppy's absolute favorite for
tennis ball catching McKegnev Green. It is because I have been able to personally experience
and enjoy these Tiburon Treasures that I now want to do more to help further maintain, preserve
and improve these Treasures which is why I am applying to become a member of the Tiburon
Parks Open Space and Trails Commission.
APPLICABLE QUALIFICATIONS
AND EXPERIENCE
I am a lawyer with over 33 years of experience in the area of public finance having served as the
senior attorney on over 550 financings aggregating in excess of $71 billion in principal amount
as further described in the accompanying Statement of Qualifications. In this role, among other
tasks I reviewed and assessed compliance with applicable local state and federal laws,
negotiated contracts and interacted with both governmental officials and the public. Being a 22-
year Tiburon resident and home owner who loves the outdoors I am personall y knowledgeable
about most of the parks open spaces and trails that Tiburon has to offer, but, if there are any new
ones I would gladly become familiar with them quickly. For years I have been an energetic and
dedicated supporter of these Tiburon Treasures and now want to directly movide to Tiburon my
time and assistance to insure that they last for generations to come. As a hard worker who gives
110% in a professional respectful and helpful manner. I would welcome this opportunity to work
with Tiburon on this Commission. Thank you for your consideration.

The Commission took a brief break and reconvened at 6:15 PM. Commissioner McMullen arrived.
BUSINESS ITEMS
1. Old Rail Trail Adjacent to 500 Tiburon Boulevard; File #T14 -14; Referral for
Comment and Recommendations Regarding a Tree Removal Permit Application filed
by the Reed Heights Tree Committee to Remove Eleven Eucalyptus Trees from Town
Property located directly upslope from the Richardson Bay Sanitary District
Headquarters.
Commissioner Feldman recused himself from participation for the remainder of the meeting as
he owns property within 500 feet of the subject parcels, and left the podium.
• Planning Manager Watrous presented the staff report.
• Tristan Stringer stated that the subject trees were dangerous, do not provide substantial
screening and would be replaced with mature trees and shrubs paid for by the applicants.
• Becky Pringle described numerous problems associated with Eucalyptus trees.
• Lee Darby described the existing trees and the proposed replacement vegetation and why
topping the trees would be inappropriate.
• Margarita Perry noted that the Richardson Bay Sanitary District support this request and
said that it would cost $8,000 to remove the trees and $3,450 to plant the replacement
vegetation.
• Harvey Rogers agreed with the applicants and said that the replacement plantings would
provide better coverage and use less water.
• John Kern described his experience with Eucalyptus trees as part of Town and Romberg
Center projects and encouraged the Town to take aggressive action to remove as many of
these trees as possible.
• Lisa Klairmont said that there was no reason to deny the permit.
• Petey Stein stated that this was a good time to do this project and commended the
homeowners on doing their homework.
• Vice Chair McMullen said that he was impressed with the presentation and agreed that
trimming the Eucalyptus trees would not work. He said that the trees provide nominal
benefit and he supported their removal.
• Commissioner Park supported the request.
• Chairman Winkler said that he did not like Eucalyptus trees and thought that the
application made sense.
• The Commission voted 3 -0 to recommend staff approval of the tree permit application.

2. McKegney Green Use and Management Policy: Receive Recommendation from Ad -hoe
Committee Regarding Adoption of a Permanent Policy for the Use and Management of
McKegney Green; Consider Recommendation of Policy Adoption to the Town Council
(continued from November 19, 2013)
Director Anderson presented the staff report.
Ad -hoc Committee member and Vice -Chair McMullen provided the ad -hoc Committee
report to supplement the staff report, and stated that the Committee had met subsequent to
the last Commission meeting, determined that there was insufficient information to
establish a truly cost - recovery-based hourly rate at this time; recommended an hourly rate
at the low end of the spectrum for southern Marin municipalities, and urged forwarding
the policy to the Town Council for adoption. He noted data would be generated over the
next year for a comprehensive policy review in 2015, but that the policy needed to be
adopted this year for a number of reasons such that it could go into effect in 2015.
• Mark Minturn, Tiburon Peninsula Soccer Club (TPSC), stated that the most serious
concern with the proposed policy was the cost increase to the Club. The proposed hourly
rate, while reduced over previous versions, would still constitute a cost increase. He
suggested that a fixed -fee arrangement.be considered for TPSC. He also believed that the
"refund" provisions of the policy were unfair to recurring users such as TPSC.
• Mike Stevens, representing Southern Marin Lacrosse (SML), expressed concern about
possible mixed use of the field. He said the lacrosse league was growing quickly, that the
Baptist Seminary property was being sold and the future of the field there was uncertain,
and that McKegney Green was likely to be very much needed in the lacrosse league next
year.
• Director Anderson explained why the fixed fee approach was not suited to a multiple user
field rental system, as was used by other Marin municipalities, and that the refund policy
was very similar for recurring and non - recurring users and that recurring users had
multiple opportunities to make up any cancelled times whereas one -time renters did not.
• Kim Stibich, TPSC, requested more flexibility in the policy to address limited use after
heavy rains and to address refunds and /or rescheduling when extended rain -out periods
are experienced by recurring users.
• The Commission directed Staff to make revisions to the policy to provide that flexibility.
• The Commission discussed the issues raised and reached consensus that the changes to
the policy were adequate for initial launch of the policy, and that the review period in
summer 2015 would offer an opportunity to make any necessary adjustments.
The Commission voted 3 -0 to approve a motion recommending approval of the McKegney
Green Policy to the Town Council, with amendments to the last bullet point of Section 6
substituting "should" for "shall" and to Section 10 adding a sentence to subsection (b) allowing
flexibility to grant credit for refunds or rescheduling in the event of extended rainout periods.

1. 1860 MOUNTAIN VIEW DRIVE: File No. 21406; Amalfi West LLC, Owner; Site
Plan and Architectural Review for construction of additions to an existing single - family
dwelling, with a Variance for excess lot coverage. The first floor would be expanded to
include a new family room, laundry room and powder room, and the second floor would
include expansions to the existing kitchen, entry and master bedroom suite and would
connect to the existing detached two -car garage. The project would increase the floor area
by 1,194 square feet to a total of 3,990 square feet of living space, which is less than the
3,999 square foot floor area ratio for this lot. The lot coverage would increase to 3,378
square feet (16.9 %) of the site, which is greater than the 15.0% maximum lot coverage
permitted in the RO -2 zone. Assessor's Parcel No. 059- 042 -11.
The applicant is requesting Design Review approval for the construction of additions to an
existing two -story single - family dwelling on property located at 1860 Mountain View Drive.
The first floor would be expanded to include a new family room, laundry room and powder
room. The second floor would include expansions to the existing kitchen, entry and master
bedroom suite and would connect to the existing detached two -car garage. New decks would
wrap around the sides and rear of both levels.
This application was first reviewed at the April 3, 2014 Design Review Board meeting. At
that meeting, several neighboring property raised concerns about potential view and privacy
issues from the project. The Design Review Board shared some of the privacy concerns,
particularly the potential impacts from the proposed deck addition to the west (right) side of
the house that would be visible from the rear and deck of the neighboring home at 1850
Mountain View Drive. In order to address these concerns and correctly notice the application
TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #8
5/1/14
for the lot coverage variance and floor area exception, the Design Review Board continued the
application to the May 1, 2014 meeting.
The applicant has submitted revised plans for the proposed project. The corrected size for this
lot is 19,994 square feet. The proposed revisions would reduce the previously proposed 1,386
square foot increase in floor area to 1,194 square feet, resulting in a total floor area of 3,990
square feet, which would be 9 square feet less than the floor area ratio for this site. A floor
area exception is therefore not required for this project. The 1,039 square foot increase in lot
coverage on the site has been reduced to an 846 square foot increase, which would result in a
total coverage of 3,378 square feet (16.9°/x), which is greater than the 15.0% maximum lot
coverage permitted in the RO -2 zone. A variance for excess lot coverage is therefore still
requested.
Len Rifldnd, representing Amalfi West, LLC, introduced the architect and landscape architect.
David Kotzebue, architect, outlined the changes made since the last presentation. He stated that
the design was environmentally sensitive and said that they reduced the floor area to remove the
floor area exception that was previously requested. He said that they reduced the roof area by
shortening the overhangs. He said that the roof parapet would distinguish the perimeter, create a
contrast, and provide more articulation. He noted that they also moved the deck from the west
side and are now proposing two decks on the south side of the house.
John Merten, landscape architect, described the landscape plan and plantings to provide
screening from other neighboring properties. He described the views from the homes at 1850 &
1865 Mountain View Drive as panoramic, including Sausalito, the Golden Gate Bridge, and San
Francisco and said that the overall percentage of the view that would be taken by 1860 was very
small. He said that there are trees that are poorly maintained along the property line and these
would be replaced. He felt confident that the proposed plantings in the space between 1850
Mountain View Drive and the applicant's property would provide sufficient visual separation
between the properties. He said that vegetation would be provided to minimize the bulk and mass
of the house when viewed from above. He said that they were open to increasing the height of
plantings to screen the view of house from the street.
Mr. Rifkind described the discussion contained in the staff report and he explained how the
variance findings could be made. He noted that the staff report felt that this would be a self -
created hardship, but he felt that the only way to create any outdoor living space from the second
floor was to create decks, and the second floor was needed because of the steep lot. He said that
this is one of the smallest lots in the neighborhood, on a steep sloping lot, and is a remodel of an
existing home. In his view, these factors create conditions that justify a lot coverage variance. He
provided a list of homes in the neighborhood which had obtained lot coverage variances, some in
conjunction with a floor area exception. He said that this would not be a self - created hardship
because the kitchen and foyer would add 446 square feet to the existing home, while the other
additional 400 square feet of lot coverage would come from the decks that are necessary to
provide outdoor living space from the main living area. He respectfully requested the Board
approve the plan and grant the lot coverage variance.
TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #8 2
5/l/I4
The public hearing was opened.
Donna Grant said she lives uphill from the property and has several concerns. She pointed out
there is a big difference in the angles of the houses on the slopes. If the house were differently
oriented then it would not be in the view. The proposed olive trees grow up to 25 feet and she is
concerned about that 25 foot barrier. She noted the view lines across the landscape plan and
stated the trees would grow to a height that obliterates her back yard view. Anything above 8 feet
will block her view from her backyard and entire lower area of her house. She said the deck is
too large and suggested a smaller size than 12 feet to allow for more privacy for 1850 Mountain
View Drive. She was concerned about the parapet which has doubled in size since the last
meeting.
Onne Broek said that he went through a design review process about 1' /z years ago for his own
house and made changes to address neighbors' concerns. He felt that the comments made by the
Board and neighbors about the current application were largely ignored by the architect. He said
that the roofline was substantially higher roofline and he was upset about the larger parapet and
agreed with Ms. Grant that it should be smaller. He said that the design would reduce the view
from his primary living area and conflicts with the comments made by Boardmembers at the last
meeting. He was in favor of plantings up to 10 feet tall along the front to screen the view of the
house from the street.
Robert Kadosh said that the proposed rear deck would be over 800 square feet and would look
directly into his bedroom. He noted the location of his bedroom relative to the deck and pointed
out the proposed floor to ceiling windows which would require him to close the blinds on all of
his windows. He suggested recessing the deck and overhang back 12 feet so it would not change
the view from the deck but allow privacy. He also requested removing or reducing the comer
window since it would look right into his bedroom.
Mr. Kotzebue stated that the orientation of 1850 Mountain View Drive is such that the view is
not across the subject property. He noted that there is an existing corner window in the area that
Mr. Kadosh requested to be removed.
Mr. Merten said that they have proposed to position a combination of olive trees and screening
shrubs in the best arrangement to preserve views. He said that they originally proposed three
olive trees and changed the plan to move them further downslope to prevent clipping the view
over the proposed deck from the neighboring property. He said that they can easily adjust tree
locations in the field. He said that many factors affect the rate of growth of olive trees, including
wind and cold, and he did not expect those trees to grow higher than 18 -20 feet. He also said
they could be pruned very easily and could be maintained at that level.
Mr. Rifkind said that the total area of the two decks is 800 square feet and for lot coverage
purposes only counts as 400 square feet. He said that the property next door has about 1,100
square feet of deck space, and so they were asking for less than other houses in the area.
Boardmember Kricensky asked if the glass on the side wall of the dining room includes a
significant view, and Mr. Rifldnd said that it would open up to the full panoramic view.
TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #8
5/1/14
Chair Chong what the applicant considered when designing the comer of the roof. Mr. Kotzebue
said that the existing roof blocks the view of the city and by raising it they would open the view
up to include other San Francisco buildings.
Chair Chong asked if the parapet could be reduced. Mr. Kotzebue said that it could be lowered
about 12 inches. Boardmember Emberson asked how far above the top of the roof it would stand,
and Mr. Kotzebue answered 18 inches above the roof. Vice -Chair Cousins suggested possibly
stepping the parapet so the downhill portion is a different height, and Mr. Kotzebue said that they
have the ability to step it but doing so would not improve the view.
The public hearing was closed.
Boardmember Kricensky stated that it is good practice to work with an existing house rather than
tear down and build a new structure. He said that the large rooms make it difficult to make the
variance findings. He liked the design of the house and said that with some plantings along
Mountain View Drive the roof would not be an issue. He said that the parapet would add an
architectural piece but he felt that the view from neighboring properties would be affected by the
higher roof. He understood the desire to have a panoramic view in the corner but perhaps if the
window were smaller it would not feel like it would look right into the neighbor's bedroom.
Vice -Chair Cousins thought that the architects did a lot to address the issues brought up at the
last meeting with the decks and roof changes. He felt that the parapet would help break up the
roof area, but he was concerned about the height and thought that lowering would help reduce
view impacts. He believed that the variance was needed because the only way to comply with the
lot coverage requirement would be to entirely remove the decks. He said that these homes are
split up and at an angle to each other, with sweeping views and viewlines at 90 degrees to each
other. Since there is already an existing window in the comer position, he thought that it would
be hard to argue that this plan would make the privacy issue worse. He said that the trees would
further help reduce the privacy impact. He said that people do not stand at the corners of decks
and look back and that we live in a town with neighbors. He said moving the olive trees downhill
would help.
Boardmember Emberson said that she was bothered by the suggestion to plant trees to screen bad
design issues. She said that she viewed this project as a new house even though they are staying
within the footprint of the existing house. She pointed out other projects where the Board
required reducing decks, but felt that these decks would not have as much of an impact. She felt
that it would be beneficial to the neighbor's privacy to reduce the amount of glazing on the
corner facing his bedroom, since the existing window is much smaller than what is being
proposed. She liked the house and how the parapet would break up the roofline, but she
supported lowering it by 1 foot. She noted that all homes in this area see decks on other homes.
Chair Chong said that this was a very nice design and that the parapet helps the design so he was
hesitant to reduce it. He suggested taking 9 inches off the top, which would still allow 6 inches
above the roof and would allow the parapet design element above the roofline to remain. He
agreed with the argument that having an outdoor area coming off the main living area is
TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES 98 4
5/1/14
important and believed that he could make the findings for the variance as not having this
outdoor space would be a hardship.
Boardmember Emberson said that the location of the olive trees would affect the neighbors' view
and need to be moved up the hill. Chair Chong said that they need to balance concerns that the
trees will grow into views with concerns that they are needed to provide privacy. Boardmember
Kricensky suggested siting the trees to block the corner window to provide more perceived
privacy but not block views. Several Boardmembers questioned the locations and species of
various trees and clarified with the landscape architect that the trees are prunus carolinia with 1
replanted olive tree and 3 new olive trees down the hill.
Boardmember Kricensky asked if the screening on Mountain View Drive needed to be added as
a condition of approval. Mr. Merten said that they propose increasing the plantings along
Mountain View Drive at a height sufficient to mitigate the mass of the building as viewed from
the street, with heights of 8 to 10 feet.
ACTION: It was M/S (Cousins/Emberson) that the request for 1860 Mountain View Drive is
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act and to approve the request, subject to the
attached conditions of approval, and the additional conditions of approval requiring that the
prunus carolinia trees on the west side of the property be aligned between the dining room
windows of the house and the bedroom of 1850 Mountain View Drive, the top of the parapet
reduced in height by 9 inches, and the vegetation on the front property line be increased to 8 -10
feet in mature height. Vote: 4 -0.
E. PUBLIC HEARINGS AND NEW BUSINESS
Chair Chong recused himself from the following item.
2. 1610 TIBURON BOULEVARD: File No. 51406; Minoo Sultan and David Losk,
Owners; Sign Permit application for installation of signage for a new freestanding sign
and a wall sign for an existing office building, with a Major Sign Area Exception. The
proposed freestanding sign requires a major sign area exception as it would not be set
back at least 15 feet from the property line. Assessor's Parcel No. 059 - 101 -02.
The applicant is proposing to install one (1) freestanding sign and one (1) wall sign for the
building located at 1610 Tiburon Boulevard. The freestanding sign would replace an existing
freestanding sign that had been erected for the previous tenants. The sign would be installed in
front of the property, on the opposite end of the site as the existing sign, within the Caltrans
Tiburon Boulevard right -of -way between the building and the sidewalk. The wall sign would
be placed on the side of the building, on the first story, facing the adjacent Shark's Deli
location. No lighting is proposed for any of the signs.
The Tiburon Sign Ordinance permits a maximum sign area of 13.0 square feet for the three
sides of this building. The applicant is proposing a maximum of 16.0 square feet of sign area,
which exceeds the maximum permitted sign area. Section 16A.615 (o[41) of the Tiburon Sign
Ordinance requires a major sign area exception if a freestanding sign is not set back at least 15
TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #8 5
5/1/14
feet from the property line. As the proposed freestanding sign would not comply with this
requirement, a major sign area exception is required.
Candy Bertoli, representing Pacific Union, said that the current sign is to the left of the building
and not very visible. She said that there was no way they could position the sign 15 feet from the
property line. She said that they would like better visibility than what is currently in this location.
There were no public comments.
Vice -Chair Cousins asked what color was planned for the sign. Ms. Bertoli said that the sign
would be vinyl and the color would charcoal.
Boardmember Emberson said that she was concerned at first about the sign and its location, but
when she viewed the area it appeared reasonable. She hoped that the sign would look more like
wood and less like plastic, but otherwise she thought that it looked tasteful. She did not support
the larger sign but said that she could support Option A with the 3 foot x 3 foot sign.
Boardmember Kricensky agreed with Boardmember Emberson regarding the scale of the sign,
once he saw the location. He said that he did not like the metal look and the dark color.
Vice -Chair Cousins agreed and said that he did not like the materials and the dark color, and
suggested it would look better if it were grey or wood. Planning Manager Watrous provided a
more accurate rendering to the Board. Once they viewed this rendering, the Boardmembers
agreed the color of the sign looked fine. All Boardmembers agreed that they prefer option A.
ACTION: It was WS (Emberson/Cousins) that the request for 1610 Tiburon Boulevard is
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act and to approve the request for the Option
A sign, subject to the attached conditions of approval. Vote: 3 -0 -1 (Chong recused).
Chair Chong returned to the meeting.
3. 96 MT. TIBURON COURT: File No. 714006; Farrokh and Susan Hosseinyoon, Owners; Site
Plan and Architectural Review for construction of a new single - family dwelling. The proposed
three -level building would include a main level with a living room, dining room, kitchen,
breakfast nook, family room, two powder rooms, and a master bedroom suite; an upper level
with three bedrooms, and three bathrooms; a lower level with a mud room, guest room, a
bathroom, game room, and a garage; and a basement with a bathroom and an extra room. The
proposal would result in lot coverage of 5,720 square feet (13.0 %) and a gross floor area of 6,284
square feet. Assessor's Parcel No. 058 - 261 -19.
The applicant is requesting Design Review approval to construct anew single - family
dwelling on property located at 96 Mt. Tiburon Court. The proposed three -level single - family
dwelling with basement would include on the main level a living room, dining room, kitchen,
breakfast nook, family room, two powder rooms, storage space, and a master bedroom suite.
The proposed upper level would include three bedrooms, and three bathrooms. The lower level
would include a mud room, guest room, a bathroom, game room, and a garage. The basement
TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #8
5/1/14
level would consist of a bathroom and an extra room.
The proposal would result in a floor area of 6,284 square feet, which is below the maximum
floor area guideline for the property (6,404 square feet). The proposal would result in lot
coverage of 5,720 square feet (13.0 %), which is below the maximum 15.0% permitted in the
RO -1 zone.
Mohamad Sadrieh, architect, said that they designed the home on three levels because of the
steep slope, which would push the house back into the hillside, open views for the neighbors and
provide views for the proposed house. He said that the overall effect would be that of a house
receding back into the hillside, set back from the yard, and using natural materials that blend in
with the hillside. He said that they worked closely with the neighbors and made changes to the
plan to address their concerns. He said that they would put in a temporary fabric fence and water
the site during excavation and grading to minimize dust and noise, and noise generated
construction would be limited to reasonable hours.
Michael Yandle, landscape architect, said that the project would blend beautifully into the site as
it would step down the slope as required by the design guidelines and is beautifully articulated.
He said that the whole house and garden would face toward the view and away from surrounding
sites. He said that they propose to plant native plants on the edges of the property and then more
structured landscaping closer to the house.
The public hearing was opened.
Robert Gloger said that he owns the property that would be most impacted by the construction of
this house. He said that they have no architectural issues and believe that the home would be
beautiful. He was concerned about the position of the barbecue because it would be nearest to his
property. He asked whether it was possible to move the barbecue area within the courtyard
without affecting the experience of the new owner. He said that his home is built on bedrock and
he was concerned that his pool or his home may develop cracks as a result of the excavation.
Chair Chong pointed out that that is outside the purview of the DRB and suggested speaking
with the Building Division about those concerns.
Mr. Gloger said the renderings for the plantings on the driveway include a series of trees that
could grow to 30 feet high, and he said that that driveway fronts his entire property. He said that
a bedroom of the house would also be very close to his son's living room and they would like to
see some plantings to improve privacy.
Bruce Moody said that he was concerned about parking on the cul -de -sac. He was concerned
about construction impacts, including parking and debris boxes. He said that the only item on the
plans he objected to was the deer fence and said that the plans were unclear whether it would go
around the entire property. He said that there is also a very old Gravenstein apple tree on the
property and he hoped it could be preserved.
Chair Chong reminded everyone that the Building Division regulates construction and they
should be contacted regarding those issues.
TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #8
5/1/14
Barbara Gloger stated that the driveway would be built contiguous to their property and she
wanted to know the exact elevation. She believed that it might be three feet below their pool and
she was concerned about lights and traffic, so she asked for poles to show the borders and where
the driveway would begin. Chair Chong said typically story poles are not provided for
driveways, and Planning Manager Watrous noted the plans show descriptive data for the siting of
the driveway.
Ms. Gloger said that they would like to maintain their views and she hoped the height of the trees
would not go above an acceptable height to preserve their views.
Mr. Yandle stated that they located the barbecue away from the house because of smoke
dissipation. He did not believe that the barbecue would be a gathering spot because it is not set
up for chairs and does not have a large enough space to gather. He said that they would be happy
to work with the neighbors throughout the process of selecting trees to plant along the driveway.
Mr. Sadrieh said that he understood the concerns about the barbecue and he was sure something
could be worked out on that item. Chair Chong asked if the barbecue could be tucked
underneath. Mr. Yandle said that at one point they placed it near the kitchen, but in that location
smoke would build up into the eaves and overhang of the house. He said that there was still
plenty of buffer between the two properties. Boardmember Emberson asked how far the
barbecue would be from the kitchen and Mr. Yandle answered about 40 feet.
Chair Chong asked about the apple tree and the screening between the neighbors on the south.
Mr. Yandle pointed out the location of the apple tree and said that it would not be removed.
Chair Chong asked about the deer fence and Mr. Yandle clarified that the deer fence is planned
to go all the way around the property.
The public hearing was closed.
Boardmember Emberson said that she loved the house and that this was a good example of
adhering to the hillside guidelines and stepping the house down the hillside. She said that it was a
spectacular house on a very difficult site. She loves the landscape design that would mimic the
natural vegetation on the site. She said that this was one of the nicest houses she had seen in a
long time.
Vice -Chair Cousins agreed with Boardmember Emberson and commended the architects for an
excellent job of fitting the house to the site. He thought that the landscaping would be very nice,
the house would have generous setbacks to all of the neighbors, and the screening would provide
privacy for the neighbors. He said that he had no problems with the proposed outdoor activities
on the site.
Boardmember Kricensky said that he really liked the house and that this is a very difficult site
due to its topography and shape. He loved the use of the different materials. He felt that the six-
TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTCS #8
5/1/14
foot stone screen and landscaping behind the BBQ area would provide separation to the
neighbor's property.
Boardmember Emberson said she is against the deer fencing and thinks it should be cut back.
Boardmember Kricensky pointed out if the homeowners association rules allow it then it should
be allowed. If it is allowed by the Town then he cannot come up with a reason to reduce it. Chair
Chong noted there are other homes in the area with deer fencing. Vice -Chair Cousins said it is a
6 foot high fence and complies with regulations.
Chair Chong recalled that he was on the Board when another project came through for this lot
and was not built. He thought that the current project was much more thoughtful and a much
better design. He supported the project and believed that it would be a very nice addition to the
neighborhood. He was a little conflicted by the barbecue location but realistically believed that it
would not be an issue that often and could see why it was important to locate it away from the
house.
ACTION: It was M/S (Emberson/Kricensky) that the request for 96 Mt. Tiburon Court is exempt
from the California Environmental Quality Act and to approve the request, subject to the
attached conditions of approval. Vote: 4 -0.
4. 145 STEWART DRIVE: File No. 714027; Moonhie and Jerome Chin, Owners; Catherine
and Bart Gershbein, Appellants; Appeal of Staff -level Site Plan and Architectural Review
approval of installation of one new skylight for an existing single - family dwelling.
Assessor's Parcel No. 055- 101 -26.
On March 10, 2014, Planning Division staff conditionally approved a Site Plan and
Architectural Review application to allow the installation of a skylight on roof of an existing
single - family dwelling, on property located at 145 Stewart Drive. The owners of the property
at 147 Stewart Drive (Catherine and Bart Gershbein), hereafter referred to as "appellants,"
have filed a timely appeal of staff s decision.
On February 18, 2014, the applicant submitted a Staff -level design review application to
relocate the existing skylight to a new location on the roof. During the ten -day public review
period, staff received correspondence by email from the appellants, stating their concerns
with the location of the skylight, which would be towards their home, and that the skylight
would disrupt their water view, create privacy impacts, and would provide a light pollution
due to the two homes being in close proximity of one another.
Planning Division staff viewed the proposal from the appellant's existing outdoor deck
adjacent to 145 Stewart Drive on the north side and determined that the proposed skylight
would not create any substantial new privacy and lighting impacts and/or disrupt their views.
On March 10, 2014, staff approved the application with conditions. On March 17, 2014, the
appellants appealed staff s decision to approve the application to the Design Review Board.
Marta Newell, architect representing the appellants, Bart and Catherine Gershbein, said they are
seeking to address the proposed skylight. She described the existing conditions, stating that the
TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #S
5/1/14
two adjacent residences are very close to each other and there is a deck overlooking their
property. She was surprised to find that the previous project was not reviewed by the Design
Review Board because the whole exterior of the house was changed and a new deck was added
on the second story, in addition to numerous decks, patio, and a fence. She said that the
Gershbeins previously communicated their problem with a different skylight and the owners
agreed to eliminate the portion of the skylight over the ridge. She said that the new skylight
would be very large, linear and situated right below the deck where the Gershbeins entertain. She
said that the new skylight would be almost parallel to the side property line and in their main
view area at night. She suggested other ways to include a skylight and suggested clerestory
windows.
Bart Gershbein, appellant, said that this neighborhood is comprised of many houses close to one
another. He said that their deck is the only outside part of his house and is therefore an important
area. He stated that because of the close proximity everyone needs to be aware of lighting and
effects on neighbors. He said that if the skylight was angled away from his deck so it does not
shine right on the deck then he would be satisfied.
Audrey Hitchcock, designer representing the owners, showed drawings of the location of the
previous skylight on the house before it was removed and the location of the proposed new
skylight, which would be four feet to the east of the previous skylight. She stated that they also
removed the chimney which improved the Gershbeins' view, and reduced the amount of glazing
pointing toward the Gershbeins' house. She said that they do not want to change the location of
the skylight since it would not be centered above the kitchen. She said that the previous skylight
was 6.1 square feet and the new skylight would be 6.6 square feet and they would be happy to
reduce it to 6.1 square feet.
Boardmember Emberson asked if the skylight could be tilted. Ms. Hitchcock said that she would
like to ask her clients but she did not think that it would be a problem to tilt it to the south. She
said that the previous skylight was five feet higher and actually closer to the Gershbein's house
than the new skylight. She said that she climbed onto the roof and could not see the Gershbein's
deck from that location as it is completely hidden by foliage. She said that she took photos from
the Gershbein's deck looking down and the skylight would not be visible. She showed photos of
other houses in the vicinity and said that almost every house has a skylight on the slope facing
the Chin's residence.
The public hearing was opened.
Vivian Jacobs said that she looks down on all of these decks and on all of the construction. She
said that this house has been under construction since 2010 and she felt that it was unacceptable
to have construction going on for so long. She was concerned that the skylight would stick up
higher than it should.
Ms. Newell said that the Gershbeins would approve bringing back the old skylight, as it was on a
sloped roof, faced north, and was perpendicular to their property. She said that this was
important to them and there are simple solutions that could benefit both parties. She said that the
TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES 48 10
5/1/14
applicants could have a larger skylight if they installed clerestory windows and she was surprised
that they would not consider other solutions.
Mr. Gershbein stated that the original skylight was small and unobtrusive and he felt that the
proposed skylight could be aimed in a different direction to prevent so much light toward his
property.
Ms. Hitchcock said that the size of the skylight had only changed by six inches and they were
happy to bring it back down to the size that previously existed. She said that it would be possible
to tilt the skylight, but to force them to put back the old skylight would look silly in the kitchen
because it would not be centered.
The public hearing was closed.
Vice -Chair Cousins stated that he agreed with staff's decision and felt that the situation would
appear to be improved for the Gershbeins. He said that the skylight would be less visible on a flat
roof than one on a sloped roof. He noted that the new skylight would be essentially the same size
as the old skylight and he agreed that this should have been approved.
Boardmember Kricensky noted that the skylight would only be 14 inches wide. He also noted the
Town requirements that skylights have a dark tint and he believed that there would not be as
much of a light problem as the appellant believes and less obtrusive than the previous skylight.
He acknowledged that the skylight could be tilted or made smaller but he did not think that it
would make a difference.
Boardmember Emberson agreed and said that she has tested skylights in her own home with light
bulbs in the wells and her neighbors could not even tell when they were on. She pointed out that
the Town requires that skylights must be tinted. She agreed with staff that this was a perfectly
reasonable request. She said that she went on the deck of the Gershbeins' house and she could
not see the skylight at all except when standing at the very end of the deck. She believed that the
skylight could be tilted to make them happy and it would be in the direction of the sun.
Chair Chong agreed with the other Boardmembers. He looked up the previous skylight on
Google maps and said that it was very similar to the proposed skylight. He said that lights are not
allowed in skylights anymore, and skylights must be tinted, flat and not bubble- shaped, and so he
did not believe that this is an issue anymore in Tiburon. He said it would be neighborly to tilt the
skylight but he did not believe a condition of approval was required.
Boardmember Kricensky noted that this was a very small skylight in relation to the more visible
glazing on the house.
ACTION: It was M/S (Cousins/Emberson) to direct staff to prepare a resolution denying the
appeal for 145 Stewart Drive. Vote: 4 -0.
