PRESENTATIONS Mayor Doyle said that the Council would take the Consent Calendar out of order, and asked for a motion to adopt Consent Calendar Item No. 3, a resolution honoring Dick Collins. 3. Memorial Plaque honoring Richard B. Collins — Adopt Resolution regarding establishing a plaque at the Lyford Parking Lot to honor Richard B. "Dick" Collins (Councilmember Fraser/Town Manager Curran) MOTION: To adopt Consent Calendar Item No. 3, as written. Moved: O'Donnell, seconded by Fraser Vote: AYES: Unanimous ABSENT: Tollini CDRAFT Town Co4ncil Minutes #aa -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 1 Councilmember O'Donnell said how sad it was to lose Dick, who he said had "given his all" to the Town. O'Donnell said that Dick Collins was "a friend to all" and had a special friendship with his colleague, Jim Fraser. Councilmember Fraser said that it was indeed appropriate to place the plaque at Lyford Drive Parking Lot, a project that Dick had envisioned and had seen to its completion. Councilmember Fredericks agreed. She said she had worked with Councilmember Collins on a Town committee and that he was committed to finding a place in Town to build more affordable housing. She said that even though this had not come to fruition, she said that Dick had put his heart into the project, had spent hours researching and working on it, and was never deterred. She said it was an honor to have worked with him. Mayor Doyle read the resolution and presented a framed copy to Dick's widow, Pat, and her children who were in the audience. • Community Homelessness Fund and continuation of the "REST" Program — Jason Satterfield, County of Marin Health & Human Services Homelessness Analyst Mr. Satterfield gave a power point presentation on the proposal for a Community Homelessness Fund and continuation of the REST program. He said that the purpose of the fund was to expand existing programs and well as to pilot new ones that have been proven to work elsewhere. Councilmember Fredericks asked what entity was asking for the funding. Satterfield said the MCCMC Subcommittee on Homelessness, chaired by Councilmember Kate Colin of San Rafael, and the County's Homeless Policy Steering Committee, chaired by Supervisor Rice. He said he was presently providing staff support to these groups. Fredericks asked if the Homeless Policy Steering Committee is a subcommittee of the County's Department of Health and Human Services. Mr. Satterfield said that it was a "Continuum of Care" organization comprised of analysts, mental health staff, and service providers, as well as educators and members of the business community. He went on to say that "Continuum of Care" is also a federal Housing and Urban Development (HUD) program that provides $2 million annually to the County for housing and services for the homeless, but depending on the context, is also referenced as a service provider. Satterfield said the Homeless Policy Steering Committee had proposed the creation of the fund and the MCCMC subcommittee had endorsed it. He said that representatives from each city served on the MCCMC subcommittee. Councilmember Fredericks said that the purpose of the questions was to provide transparency as well as a greater understanding of what the Town was being asked to contribute and to whom. DRAFT Town Council Minutes #xx -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 2 There discussion turned to funding for the continuation and expansion of the REST program, from five to 89 months, to better leverage volunteer help, and to enhance the program by improving linkages to other services and permanent housing. He said the program was currently operated by St. Vincent de Paul Society with assistance (locations) from local churches and congregations. Satterfield said that funding for the continued and enhanced REST program would come half from the cities and half from the County, with a formula based on city size. He said that Tiburon was being asked to contribute $12,524 to this pilot program, for three years. Councilmember Fraser asked what would happen after the funding commitment expired, and how would the program be evaluated. Satterfield said that the proposal was for the Marin Manager's Association to work with County Administrator Hymel on the evaluation and reporting. Councilmember O'Donnell said that while he was generally supportive of the concept that all the cities should share in the cost of homeless programs, he said that the proposal seemed overly bureaucratic and raised additional questions. He said that people really want to see their money at work. He asked why people should not simply donate to St. Vincent de Paul. Mr. Satterfield said that the goal was to track and report on the funds contributed by the cities and county, and that by pooling these funds, efficiencies could be created. Councilmember Fredericks agreed that accountability was essential. She commented that there must be standards of performance by which to measure the success of the program. Satterfield said that there is a process and that metrics had been drafted. He said that there were also comparable programs in other counties, specifically shelter diversion programs, also known as "Rapid Rehousing Programs". Fredericks said she had also heard of a reserve fund that was being set up. Satterfield said that for this specific program, a reserve was not intended. Ultimately, he said there was a desire for a 24/7 shelter but not at this time. He said this program would spend each dollar it received toward the continuation of the REST program. He said that if the Marin Community Foundation (MCF) or others contributed toward capital costs, then perhaps a reserve fund would be contemplated. Fredericks asked who would handle the money, approve expenses, and provide the audit. Mr. Satterfield said there were several models being considered by the Marin Managers: whether the money would be sent to a special fund at MCF, sent directly to St. Vincent, or something else, he said MMA would decide. Satterfield said the next step was to vote on whether to fund the program and to provide feedback to our local MCCMC representative, Mayor Doyle. Mayor Doyle asked how many cities had voted to endorse the program, or provide funding. Mr. Satterfield said nine cities had endorsed the proposal, to date. DRAFT Town Council Minutes #ax -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 3 Although no action was taken, Town Manager Curran indicated that the funding request would come back to the Council during the budget hearing scheduled for June 3, 2015. • Update on Tiburon Peninsula Emergency Sirens — Battalion Chief Kelly Bradley, Tiburon Fire Protection District Battalion Chief Bradley updated the Council on the progress in repairing the sirens that had not functioned properly during the test on April 17, 2015. He said some of the problems were mechanical and others were electronic; however, he said these issues had been addressed. He said that subsequent, non -audible testing had been successful. Bradley said that the plan going forward was to test the sirens on a monthly basis, similar to what other communities do. The first such test will be on Saturday, June 6, 2015. The Council asked a few questions about testing and coverage. Councilmember Fraser pushed for accountability, so that the Town's residents could enjoy fully functioning sirens (some residents complained that they could not hear the sirens at all), and get what they paid for. Battalion Chief Bradley concurred with this request. He also noted that there were several means of communication that could be utilized by citizens in an emergency, namely the TENS and MEANS telephone notification systems, as well as radio. Councilmember O'Donnell asked about the frequency issue with the local AM radio station, as well as coverage. Bradley acknowledged that there were indeed some coverage issues on the peninsula that have poor coverage; he also said that they were investigating FM coverage. Councilmember Fredericks also noted that some neighborhoods have block captains who will go door-to-door in an emergency. CONSENT CALENDAR 1. Town Council Minutes — Adopt minutes of May 6, 2015 regular meeting (Town Clerk Crane Iacopi) Councilmember Fredericks submitted some corrections to the minutes. 2. Urban Runoff Pollution Prevention — Adopt ordinance repealing the existing Title VI, Chapter 20A of the Tiburon Municipal Code and adopting a new Chapter 20A (Urban Runoff Pollution Prevention) and amending Title VI, Chapter 25, Section 25-3 (Watercourses) of the Tiburon Municipal Code (Public Works Director Barnes) DRAFT Town Council Minutes ffxx -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 4 3. Memorial Plaque honoring Richard B. Collins — Adopt Resolution regarding establishing a plaque at the Lyford Parking Lot to honor Richard B. "Dick" Collins (Councilmember Fraser/Town Manager Curran) MOTION: To adopt Consent Calendar Item No. 1, as amended, and Item No. 2, as written. [Item No. 3 adopted during Presentations.] Moved: O'Donnell, seconded by Fraser Vote: AYES: Unanimous ABSENT: Tollini ACTION ITEMS 1. Ned's Way Parking — Consider adoption of resolution amending current permit parking program along a portion of Ned's Way (Director of Community Development Anderson) — (continued without hearing from May 6, 201 5) Director of Community Development Anderson said the item had been continued from the May 6 meeting, after it was removed from the Consent Calendar at the request of neighbors at Chandlers Gate who requested it be continued. In 2003, Anderson said the Town Council had enacted a preferential parking program for a portion of Ned's Way immediately upslope from the Chandlers Gate senior housing development. The program implemented a condition of approval on the Chandlers Gate project that required the project to create additional parking along Ned's Way, some of which would be allocated for Chandlers Gate guest parking, while the remainder would be open to public use. Since that time, Anderson said the Dairy Knoll recreation facility had been constructed and occupied. He noted that the facility has limited parking and staff parking --The Ranch Recreation Agency can occupy as much as one-third of twenty-three (23) available on-site parking at the facility. Anderson said that the Director of The Ranch approached the Town and requested that additional nearby parking be made available and dedicated to her staff during the heaviest work hours, in order to maximize availability on-site parking in the lot for recreation program users. Anderson described the proposed changes to the existing parking program (along Ned's Way) and referenced maps attached to the staff report as exhibits. He said the area in question contains sixteen (16) parking spaces, of which six (6) are limited to two-hour parking unless a Chandlers Gate guest parking permit is displayed. He said the proposal to amend the existing permit parking program would add another eight (8) spaces to the permit program by requiring a "Dairy Knoll Staff" parking permit to be displayed on weekdays between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Anderson said that this was a limited window, with no parking controls on weekends, overnight, or during the bulk of each weekday afternoon, under the changed program. DRAFT Town Council Minutes #xx -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 5 Director Anderson said that staff believes the ten (10) parking spaces not currently included in the preferential parking program are most commonly used for overflow parking by Hilarita residents. He said some of these spaces appear to be vacant during weekday business hours, indicating that they are occupied by work commute vehicles that would not tend to conflict with the limited proposed hours for exclusive use by The Ranch staff. But in order to approve the amended parking program, he said the Town Council must find that it would not adversely affect parking conditions for residents or merchants in the area. He went on to state that the majority of each of the eight affected parking spaces is located on the Dairy Knoll parcel, with the minority portion located in the Ned's Way right-of-way. He added that the Town could potentially use the Town's propriety rights over the Dairy Knoll parcel to post the desired parking limitations without amending the preferential parking program, but staff believes the latter approach to be more consistent, easier to enforce, and superior overall. Finally, Anderson said that Town staff explored other possible locations for dedicated staff parking for The Ranch staff in the vicinity, and had come up empty. He added that staff also thinks the Town might be able to "beef up" the existing parking program to ensure that the Chandler's Gate parking spaces are being used appropriately. Director Anderson said the Hilarita Apartments management was notified of the Town's intentions via a letter dated March 10, 2015, and the Town had received no response to this letter to date. He recommended that the Town Council take testimony from interested persons and deliberate on that matter. Mayor Doyle opened the matter to public comment and the following people spoke: 1) Jarvis Jones said that she and other seniors [at the Hilarita] utilize the so-called overflow parking on Ned's Way because there is no access to her unit unless she parks down the hill and carries groceries and the like uphill which she is unable to do; said that by parking across the street, she simply has to walk across the street and up some steps rather than walking uphill and taking a tall staircase; said the need of seniors in this case outweighs the "want" of Dairy Knoll; 2) Anna Wolff said that most households at the Hilarita had cars; that there were 228 bedrooms and only 102 parking places, almost a 2:1 ratio; said that residents played "musical chairs" every day and needed the overflow spaces. She urged the Council not to adopt the program, which would have an adverse effect on the Hilarita residents; 3) Pamela McConnell -Douglass, 40 -year resident of Hilarita, said the complex had no playground for children who had to play in the street; and she urged the Council not to give the parking spaces away; 4) Cathomas Starbird, Ned's Way, 10 -year resident, noted that the increased activity on the street [from the Ranch] had impacted the quality of life at the Hilarita; said that of the 16 parking spaces on the east side of the street, six are for Chandler's Gate parking and only 10 are for the Hilarita, or 386 people; suggested that parking spaces might be better marked and that signage could be added to improve safety, possibly even a speed bump; said there was no DRAFT Town Council Minutes #xx -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 6 crosswalk on Ned's Way from The Ranch to the public street, or adequate Lighting; said that during commute hours [when some Hilarita parkers are gone] the spaces are used for commercial purposes, but that there is still not enough parking during the day; 5) Barbara Wilson, 20 -year resident of Hilarita, said that because Dairy Knoll was "the last one in" it should have considered its parking needs during its design and not take the Hilarita's parking afterward; 6) Sue Tracy, Hilarita-Tiburon Ecumenical Association board member, agreed that it's sometimes difficult to find parking for meetings due to the lack of guest parking at Hilarita; wondered whether the area on the west side of the Hilarita complex might be used as a parking area or as a playground for children; agreed that safety for kids is an issue in the neighborhood; 7) Sydne Bortel, Chandler's Gate resident for four years, said that there was not enough parking and recognized that Dairy Knoll was having resulting problems as their program participation grows, but said that the Hilarita was much more impacted because of the number of seniors living there; said she had witnessed parking conflicts frequently and said there had been some good suggestions made by residents tonight; said she supports affordable housing and feels an obligation to take care of others; 8) Kacy Cuoto, said that when Hilarita residents cannot find parking, they are told to park on Tiburon Boulevard; she wondered if Dairy Knoll staff might do the same and noted that the Hilarita had already lost two spaces along Ned's Way as part of construction of the facility; 9) Cathleen Andreucci, Director of The Ranch, said their mission was to serve the community and noted that staffers do walk up the hill with kids every day; said that the facility had just added a new access stairway from the overflow lot; and that all they were asking for was additional spaces during the day, from 8:30 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. on weekdays. Andreucci said that photos showing the Dairy Knoll lot empty were that way because staffers cannot park there and must leave it open for classes. She said she did not want the facility's users to take the parking of Hilarita residents but said she noted that Hilarita parking was not all filled up and said she had counted spaces during the day — said there were seven (7) open spaces empty today from 8:30 until 2:30 p.m., and noted that nine (9) spaces were taken up at Hilarita by storage bins. Andreucci said that because Hilarita was starting a construction project during the summer. the Dairy Knoll might wait until September to start the new parking program, if approved. 10) Michelle Berkenpas, Hilarita resident who said she works Monday through Friday during the day, offered her space for use during the day by the elderly and disabled. Mayor Doyle closed the public hearing when there were no additional speakers. Councilmember Fraser thanked the members of the public who had come to the meeting and had spoken. He said the Council had learned from their testimony and now had additional information to consider. He suggested that maybe the Town could get a group of people together to work on this issue. Councilmember Fredericks concurred, as did Councilmember O'Donnell and Mayor Doyle. O'Donnell agreed that nobody envisioned this should be a "take away" and said that he had been in the area during the week when many of the affected spaces were empty, especially during the hours of the proposed new parking program. He also agreed that there might be some traffic and DRAFT Town Council Minutes #xx -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 7 safety improvements in the area, but wondered whether the Council should not simply adopt the proposed parking changes and evaluate them over a six-month period as a "test program". Councilmember Fredericks said Dairy Knoll's offer to delay implementation until September would allow some time to work out a good solution and suggested accepting that offer. Mayor Doyle said he, too, appreciated the suggestion made by Hilarita residents for shared parking spaces, the installation of a crosswalk, and perhaps a speed bump, and the like. Councilmember Fredericks asked about the suggestion for use of the west -side of the property. Director Anderson said that this sloping area was offered as a dedication of open space by the developer, and was not purchased by the Town through the Open Space Bond Measure. Councilmember O'Donnell asked about changing some of the red zones; Anderson said they were all located on Hilarita private property. Again, Councilmember Fraser suggested the formation of a task force, possibly chaired by Dairy Knoll, to study the issue and make recommendations to the Council. Town Manager Curran said she would take responsibility for convening the parties to consider alternatives. Council concurred with this approach. Mayor Doyle said the parking program recommendations would not be adopted tonight. Item tabled. PUBLIC HEARINGS 1. Wireless Communications Facilities — Consider amendments to Title IV, Chapter 16 (Zoning) of the Tiburon Municipal Code regarding Wireless Communications Facilities (Community Development Director Anderson) — Introduction and first reading of ordinance Director of Community Development said that on March 4, 2015, the Town Council received a presentation by Greg Stepanicich, legal counsel for the Marin Telecommunications Agency, regarding recent changes in federal law with respect to local regulation of certain types of wireless communication facilities (WCF). He said the presentation included a memo, since updated and included in the Council's packet, discussing in some detail the new federal statutes and FCC rulings. Following review of the matter, Anderson said that Town staff had determined that amendments to the Town's zoning ordinance would be necessary to comply with the federal law. He said that certain eligible WCF facilities (including modifications to existing wireless towers and base stations, removal of transmission equipment, and replacement of transmission equipment), are now governed by Section 6409(a) of the Middle Class Tax Relief and Jobs Creation Act of 2012 ("Act"). Projects governed by the Act are now subject only to ministerial (non -discretionary) review at the local agency level, and must be acted upon by the local agency DRAFT Town Council Minutes #xx -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 8 within 60 days of application submittal, with very limited opportunities for processing time extensions. As noted by staff at the Town Council meeting in March, Anderson said the number of wireless communication facilities in Tiburon that would be governed by the Act is small (five), and while expansion of existing facilities through future modification or eligible co -location projects cannot be ruled out, staff considers the likely impact of the new federal regulations and FCC rulings on Tiburon to be limited and relatively minor in scope. Anderson said the proposed zoning amendments would modify existing provisions to establish three tiers of review for WCF proposals: 1) Ministerial review by the Director of Community Development for co -location or other proposals governed by Section 6409(a) of the Act; 2) Potentially streamlined discretionary reviews for co -location proposals not governed by Section 6409(a) of the Act [an existing provision of the Town Code]; 3) Discretionary review of all other WCF proposals, including conditional use permit, design review approval, and compliance with the Tiburon Wireless Coinniunication Facilities Standards. Anderson said that processing timelines are different for each tier; 60, 90 or 150 days respectively, with time extension of deadlines allowed only by mutual consent of the Town and applicant. He said the amendments would also incorporate provisions of Section 6409(a) with respect to nonconforming uses, and update two tables within the zoning ordinance to reflect the creation of a ministerial WCF permit application process. He said that the relevant portions of the current Municipal Code sections (redlined to reflect the proposed amendments) were attached to the written report. Director Anderson said that the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed amendments on April 22, 2015. Following public testimony and discussion, the Commission suggested some minor revisions and recommended approval to the Town Council through adoption of Resolution No. 2015-03. He noted one minor change that had been incorporated to state that an ordinance summary would be published, rather than the entire ordinance. The Director also noted that staff had preliminarily determined that the proposed amendments are exempt from further review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Councilmember Fredericks asked what the five sites were that are affected by the legislation. Director Anderson listed as follows: 1) at the Cove Shopping Center, at Peet's Coffee, 2) at the Belvedere -Tiburon Tennis Club, 3) and 4) at two locations atop 1620 Tiburon Boulevard, and 5) at the Tiburon Fire Protection District building. He said there was also the MERA antennae site DRAFT Town Council Minutes #xx -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 9 but that it is exempt from Town regulation. He noted that the facility at Town Hall is under the Town's proprietary control and not subject to the new FCC regulations. Councilmember Fredericks asked whether the Town had discretionary review over eligible private property sites. Director Anderson said it did not. Councilmember Fraser asked about co -locating antennas on existing sites. Anderson said that was a possibility; however, he believed some of the existing sites had practical limitations that could act to limit or prevent future expansion or additional co -location facilities. He acknowledged that the number of potential co -locators was unknown at this time. Fraser asked how the Town would respond if the so-called practical Iimit was reached and whether it would, in fact, have any say in establishing this limit. Councilmember Fredericks said that one way to look at it was whether the act of co -location would begin to interfere with the equipment already in the location. Mayor Doyle opened the public hearing. There was no public comment. Mayor Doyle closed the public hearing. MOTION: To read the ordinance by title only. Moved: O'Donnell, seconded by Fredericks Vote: AYES: Unanimous ABSENT: Tollini Mayor Doyle read, "An ordinance of the Town Council of the Town of Tiburon amending Municipal Code Title IV, Chapter 16 (Zoning) regarding Wireless Communications Facilities." MOTION: To pass first reading of the ordinance, waive second reading, and set adoption on consent calendar at the next regular meeting. Moved: Fredericks, seconded by O'Donnell Vote: AYES: Doyle, Fraser, Fredericks, O'Donnell ABSENT: Tollini 2. Property Maintenance Regulations — Consider ordinance establishing property maintenance regulations for the Town of Tiburon by adding Title VI, Chapter 34 (Property Maintenance) of the Tiburon Municipal Code (Community Development Director Anderson) — Introduction and first reading of ordinance Director Anderson gave the staff report. He said that a general lack of property maintenance is not one of the Town of Tiburon's more commonly experienced problems. Therefore, the Town has never fully developed a set of tools to promptly and effectively address such situations in the rare instance when they do occur at a level to threaten the public health, safety or welfare. DRAFT Town Council Minutes #rx -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 10 He said the proposed ordinance would add another tool to the Town's "toolkit" for addressing serious property maintenance issues. Anderson said that property maintenance issues can take many forms, but examples include seriously deteriorated or dilapidated buildings or structures, accumulation of junk or recyclable materials in yards, and storage of vehicles in unauthorized or improperly screened areas. He said the term "blighted property" is commonly used to describe these situations. Specifically, Anderson said the proposed ordinance would identify a series of circumstances that would constitute blighted property, for which the Town's administrative pre -citation and subsequent citation process would be used as an initial warning system capable of escalation to actual monetary fines and beyond if needed. Director Anderson said that the proposed ordinance would provide a detailed list of conditions that constitute an unacceptable level of property maintenance and allow the Town Manager and his or her designees to bring nuisance abatement actions as appropriate to resolve the unacceptable conditions. Anderson acknowledged that the term "blighted property" carries with it certain unfortunate connotations, however, he said it is a long-standing and widely recognized term in legal and code enforcement circles and is an appropriate term upon which to base the Property Maintenance Ordinance. Violation of the provisions of the Property Maintenance Ordinance would constitute an infraction. The proposed ordinance does not limit the Town's ability to utilize other available remedies, such as summary abatement or judicial proceedings when needed. The Director said that it is the express intent of Town staff in drafting this proposed ordinance that its provisions are used sparingly and judiciously to address only serious property maintenance deficiencies. He said the ordinance is not intended to be a vehicle by which the Town is drawn into neighbor disputes not rising to the level of a threat to public health, safety or welfare. Nor are the procedures set forth in the Property Maintenance Ordinance meant to be a substitute method of resolution for situations that are best remedied by civil lawsuit, according to Anderson. Anderson said that staff expects that enforcement of the new regulations will be absorbed by existing staff and anticipates no direct fiscal impact on the Town. Attempting to estimate hard costs associated with the occasional enforcement action would be speculative. Councilmember Fredericks said she was concerned about neighbor involvement in this issue. She asked who would make a determination of blight, and expressed concern over whether backyard compost heaps, or similar things, might come under scrutiny. She also asked about who would perform the clean-up and pay for the clean-up. Anderson said current Code provisions allowed the Town to make reasonable cost recovery; he reiterated that it was the Town Manager or her designee who would make the determination as to the severity of a particular situation. DRAFT Town Council Minutes #xx -2015 May 20, 2015 Page 11 Councilmember O'Donnell asked whether the proposed ordinance was based on other city model ordinances (the answer was affirmative). He also asked whether there was an appeal process. Anderson described the pre -citation and administrative citation process, which also provides for an appeal to a hearing officer (not the Town Council) in Chapter 31 of the Town Code. Mayor Doyle said he had heard of a house on Acela that might be occupied by squatters, and that it might be a fire hazard and the like. Director Anderson said that this kind of situation would fall under the proposed ordinance, but it also was likely to have Building Code violations which could be currently addressed. Councilmember Fraser asked whether "landscaping not adequately maintained" would be a violation under the proposed ordinance. Anderson said that landscaping encroaching on a public roadway was currently handled by Public Works Department, which has an existing system of notifying the property owner and asking for trimming. Councilmember Fraser asked whether large construction vehicles and equipment left parked in residential neighborhoods could be abated in some way. Chief of Police Cronin said that there was no violation for parking on a public street for under 72 hours, or vehicles under 20 -feet, overnight. He said there was a provision in the Vehicle Code prohibiting the parking of commercially registered vehicles but that it was not widely enforced. Councilmember O'Donnell gave an example of a forklift that was parked on the street for three or four days. There was a discussion about whether the building official had authorized it, or whether it had to be parked on private property, under the building permit. Mayor Doyle opened the public hearing. There was no public comment. Mayor Doyle closed the public hearing. MOTION: To read the ordinance by title only.

The terms of two members of the Town Council --Mayor Doyle and Vice Mayor Tollini--will expire in November of this year. Mayor Doyle was appointed to the Council in lieu of election in November of 2011. Vice Mayor Tollini was appointed at a special election in 2013 to fill the remainder of Councilmember Dick Collins' term, after his untimely demise. Both candidates are eligible to run again for four-year terms. Actions Required by Council. The Council is asked to adopt a resolution calling for a municipal election to be held on November 3, 2015 to fill these seats. Also before Council is a resolution requesting that the Board of Supervisors consolidate the election with any elections being conducted by the County of Marin (the normal practice of all 11 cities in Marin). The cost of the election is estimated to run between $1.75 and $3.00 per registered voter. There were 5,658 registered voters in Tiburon in the last election. Finally, the Council is asked to adopt a resolution requiring that the cost of Candidate's Statements in the upcoming election be borne by the candidates. This has been the Town's practice in previous elections. This year the cost of printing the statements is estimated to be $190 (and $480 for both English and a Spanish translation) on the ballot.

Diane Crane lacopi, Town Clerk TOWN OF TIBURON 1505 Tiburon Boulevard Tiburon, CA 94920 Town Council Meeting June 17, 2015 Agenda Item: STAFF REPOR 1 To: From: Subject: Reviewed By: Mayor and Members of the Town Council Department of Public Works Recommendation to Award the 2015 Various Streets Overlay Project to D Taylor Construction BACKGROUND The 2015 Various Streets Overlay Project consists of a thick overlay of Lyford Drive from Tiburon Boulevard to Round Hill Road and digout repairs on 31 roadway segments. The project was included in the 2014/15 Capital Improvement Plan as Annual Pavement Management Improvements and funded in the amount of $750,000, including contingency and soft costs. The project was designed by Coastland Civil Engineering, Inc. The engineer's construction estimate was $421,905. Bids for the project were opened on June 4, 2015. The Town received the following three bids: Darren Taylor Construction $421,100.40 Maggiora & Ghilotti, Inc. $429,429.00 Team Ghilotti, Inc $448,447.00 ANALYSIS The Town Attorney and Department of Public Works have reviewed the Darren Taylor Construction bid and determined that all bid requirements have been met. In their bid packet, Darren Taylor Construction did not sign a couple of documents. Per (Ghilotti Constr. Co. v. City of Richmond, supra, 45 Cal.App.4th 897, 904-905) case law, the Town may waive inconsequential deviations from the specifications. To be inconsequential, the discrepancy must not: 1. affect the amount of the bid; 2. give a bidder an advantage over others; 3. be a potential vehicle for favoritism; 4. influence potential bidders to refrain from bidding; or 5. affect the ability to make bid comparisons. The required documents were signed after the bid opening and both the Attorney and Town Engineer believe that this was an oversight by the bidder and inconsequential to the specifications. TOWN OF TIBURON PAGE 1 OF 2 Town Council \-Iccring June 17, 2015 Staff has analyzed all the bids and believes that the low bid is a fair price. The low bid is under and within 0.2% of the engineer's estimate. The two low bids are within 2% of each other. With a normal 15% contingency the total project is still under budget by more than $100,000. In addition staff notes that the cost per square yard for digout work (pothole repair) is very reasonable, 20% and 40% below the costs of the next two bidders respectively. Staff believes that this presents a potential opportunity to do additional digout work at a price favorable to the Town. Therefore staff is requesting a 20% contingency for this project. With this additional contingency the total project would be $87,000 under the CIP budget. Therefore, it is recommended that the Town Council award the bid to Darren Taylor Construction in the amount of $421,100.40 and to set out a project construction budget of $484,265, inclusive of 15% contingency funding. FINANCIAL IMPACT The 2015 Various Streets Overlay Project was included in the 2014/15 Capital Improvement Plan Capital Improvement Plan as Annual Pavement Management Improvements and funded in the amount of $750,000, including contingency and soft costs. Funding is from the Street Impact Fund and Gas Tax. Below is shown the current estimated cost of the project. Construction $421,100.40 Contingency $84,220.00 Design $86,787.00 Construction Management $70,680.00 Total $662,787.40 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Town Council: Approve the award of contact for the Tiburon Blvd Crosswalk Improvements Project to Darren Taylor Construction in the amount not -to -exceed $421,100.40 with a 20 percent contingency of $84,220.
