1'J -L,
I am aware that on June 3 you will be discussing a line item in your budget to accept a share of the funding for some of
the most vulnerable in our community. I will be out of town and unable to attend the meeting, but it would be
wonderful news to hear upon my return that we have taken the high ground in caring for those who live on the street.
Sincerely.

Peggy, thank you for providing funding in the budget for the homeless shelter project. Tiburon's churches have
been very generous in responding to the REST program. As a member of St Hilary the program has been well
received and helps us to maintain perspective of how fortunate we are to be able to afford to live in Tiburon.
Also I think your Tiburon talk emails are excellent. Thanks for communicating to us taxpayers.

Re: Proposed changes for the area south of Blackie's pasture TOWN CLERK
TOWN OF TIBURON
Dear Mayor and Town Council members:
This response to the above -captioned issue is based on The Ark article (5/20) and
clarification by Mr. Barnes. For 45 years we have looked directly at and over this
area innumerable times every day from 54 Reed Ranch Road. We like it very much
as is, finding no other spots in the flats of Tiburon that reveal any semblance of the
area in its natural form --a tranquil site and sight. We also prefer that "there isn't a
lot going on there" except for people walking or biking through. In fact, were this
proposal not identified as a pet project of Mayor Doyle, we would object
strenuously. Somewhat parenthetically, this reflects lingering appreciation for his
stalwart leadership of the DRB in 2007 when that clear-sighted group, consistent
with recommendations of the Planning Department and the neighborhood,
unanimously denied an inappropriate proposal by a neighbor and her architect --
ironically only to be reversed by a split Town Council, and with all subsequent DRBs
inexplicably capitulating to the applicant, her architect and attorney for the ensuing
8 years. The recent ultimate twist (predicted by a neighbor) being that immediately
after once again securing approval, she sold the house --putting the lie to her
ostensible motives for pursuing this matter. It also leaves questions about the DRB's
consistent compliance at the expense of a long-established neighborhood, whose
residents were effectively ignored.
But for the reason stated, rather than objecting to this proposal, we request that any
changes be effected in an understated, unobtrusive manner that will minimally
affect and disrupt the current ambiance. To that end:
1) Please give no consideration to it as a potential playground for children. Despite
one Council member's observation, there are abundant sites well-suited and
developed for play in the area--McKegney Green, South of the Knoll Park (that has
play apparatus and 3 picnic tables), 2 public school playgrounds, the area across
Tiburon Boulevard from Reed School, plus Belvedere and Paradise Parks.
2) Please do not add barbeques, or anything that might prolong activity into the
evening. And will there be specific hours of operation enforced for this mini -park?
3) If the minimally effective camouflaging with vegetation of the new restrooms to
date is any indication of what to expect from this project, these picnic areas will
likely be very visible for a dozen or more years.
4) Might the topography be left as it is rather than leveled for the seeding?
We do not expect our interests to prevail over the enjoyment of others' use of town
land. But, as noted, since the quoted rationale for this proposal ("a place where
people can go and spend time") already exists nearby, it seems reasonable to
mitigate undesirable impacts on those in whose view it will constantly be.
Thank -you,
Ma\

Mayor and Town Council
Subject: Fiscal Year 2015-16 Proposed Municipal Budget Plan
INTRODUCTION
I am pleased to present the proposed Fiscal Year 2015-16 Municipal Budget Plan. It represents
Staffs best effort at projecting revenues and expenditures for the coming year within the guidelines set
by the Council and with assistance from the Town Council Budget Committee comprised of Vice Mayor
Tollini and Councilmember O'Donnell. The presented budget is balanced. No new programs are
proposed for next year, so it essentially represents status quo revenues and spending. There are two
positions that became vacant that are being filled on a contractual basis. The first is the vacancy created
by the retirement of long-time Police Captain Dave Hutton. In April of 2015 the Town contracted with
the City of Belvedere for the use of their Chief to fill the position on a part-time basis. The Town also
lost Town Attorney Ann Danforth to retirement. The Town Council is currently in the process of
retaining legal services on a contractual basis. Overall the budget does not add any new employees.
The Town's financial situation remains strong. At the end of Fiscal Year 2015-16, the Town
anticipates an operating surplus of $535,802. The Town will begin the year with an estimated
$18,017,782 in total fund resources. The proposed budget allows the Town to continue to provide the
residents with exceptional municipal services and maintenance of Town infrastructure, along with
enhancements to the community through the Capital Improvement Program.
The Town of Tiburon has enjoyed a balance of revenue and expenditures for several decades.
The Town Council's focus has been to operate within its means while maintaining basic services. Since
incorporation, the Town has been fortunate in that it has not had to borrow funds for operations or use
restricted reserves to fund personnel. Additionally, the Town maintains healthy reserves should it need
to weather another fiscal crisis or suffer a natural disaster.
The economy as it relates to Town revenue appears to have stabilized. Staff is projecting overall
operating revenues to increase by 7.2% over the current year's adopted budget. The Town is
anticipating its single largest revenue source of secured property tax to increase by 4% in FY 2016. This
Tiburon Town Council
June 3, 2015
Page 2 of 7
increase is due to reassessment of property when it changes ownership and as properties that were
assessed downward during the recession are increased pursuant to the provisions of Proposition 13.
Operating expenditures are proposed to increase by 3.5% over the current year's adopted budget.
This increase is a combination of a reduction in salary and benefits due to contracting for two regular
positons, increases in Joint Power Agency dues, insurance premiums for worker's compensation
insurance, and increases in contractual services. These changes will be detailed in the individual
departmental budgets below.
BUDGET OVERVIEW
The Operating Budget includes all of those programs that involve ongoing costs associated with
running the Town. These include personnel, services, and supplies, as well as certain minor capital
equipment purchases.
The Capital Budget includes programs or projects that result in long term physical improvement
for the community. These projects are typically funded through the Town's restricted funds and
designated reserve funds. Examples include street paving, installation of sidewalks and park or facility
improvements.
The Overall Budget is comprised of all funding sources for operations. Included here are
restricted funds from other governmental sources for specific uses (e.g., grant funding) and Town
Council adopted fees that must be used for specific purposes (e.g., long range planning fee for the
purpose of updating the General Plan).
The overview below compares the current adopted operating budget to that proposed for FY
2015-16.
Operating
2014/15 2014!15

Budget
Revenues $9,888,889 $11;353,846

2015!16
Proposed Change
$10,602,188 7.2%
$10.066,387 3.5%
FINANCIAL HEALTH OF THE TOWN
The Town's overall financial health remains strong and continues to provide for high-quality services
to its residents while showing an operating surplus. The Town finds itself in this desirable position due to
prudent Council financial policy, both presently and historically, and careful budget management.
While operating surpluses are beginning to improve, they are not as great as those experienced
prior to the great recession. The Town continues to have sufficient General Fund Reserves despite
investment in several large projects over the past few years. The General Fund Operating Reserve
Tiburon Town Council
June 3, 2015
Page 3 of 7
remains at the Council policy level of 25% of expenditures, along with several other General Fund
policy -restricted and discretionary set -asides. The Town will begin next Fiscal Year with approximately
$6.04 million in our General Fund Policy Restricted Reserves, $2.75 million in Discretionary Set -
Asides, and $4.04 million in the Unallocated General Fund Reserve for a total of $12.83 million. In
addition, there are $5.18 million in restricted fund revenues.
The Town has for many years
enjoyed large General Fund year-end
operating surpluses, which were significantly
reduced during the great recession. The
improving economy, coupled with significant
changes to the employee benefit structure,
indicates a trend toward increasing surpluses.
The chart to the right presents a history of
total General Fund reserves from FY 2007
through projected FY 2016. The reduced
totals reflect significant spending on projects
such as the Dairy Knoll recreation facility in
recent years.
4
As presented, the Fiscal Year 2015-16 budget calls for spending down General Fund
Discretionary and Unallocated Reserves by approximately $1.8 million in capital improvement projects,
principally for a large storm drain repair, the Yellow School Bus Program, creating a picnic area in
Blackie's Pasture, trail irnprovements near Hacienda Drive, and various smaller projects.
Shown as an operating budget expense, the Town continues to replenish reserves for the payoff
of the Ca1PERS side -funds in Fiscal Year 2011-12. The entire $655,000 will be reimbursed to the
General Fund Reserves in FY 2018-19. Paying off the side -funds has eliminated the 7.75% interest rate
being charged by Ca1PERS and will save the Town approximately $200,000. Per Council direction,
these funds in FY 2014-15 were directed to the Other Post -Employment Benefits (OPEB) GASB 45
Reserve.
CHANGES TO MUNICIPAL
BUDGET PLAN
Revenues
For Fiscal Year 2015-16, Staff
projects overall operating revenues to
increase by 7.2%, or $713,299,
compared to the adopted FY 2014-15
budget. General Fund Operating
Revenues are projected to increase
8.1%, or $662,643.

State determination, assessed property valuation will increase by 2.0%, the maximum allowable under
applicable provisions of Proposition 13. When combined with reassessments of previously reduced
valuations and sales of existing homes, the Marin County Assessor's Office projects a 4.0% increase in
secured property taxes. Education Revenue Augmentation Funding (ERAF) property taxes are projected
to remain flat. Overall, staff is anticipating all sources of property taxes to increase 9.3% over the
adopted FY 2014-15 budget. Property tax receipts have historically been the Town's "bread and butter"
revenue, representing approximately 55% of General Fund Operating Revenues in FY 2015-16. The pie
chart above shows the breakdown by revenue category of the projected FY 2015-16 General Fund
Operating Revenues of $8,821,188.
The category of Other Taxes, which includes sales, property transfer and transient occupancy
taxes, is projected to increase by 9.4% over this year's adopted budget. These increases are based on
actual receipts the Town is experiencing from these sources, in particular sales and transient occupancy
tax.
Franchise Fees are anticipated to increase 5.6% over the adopted FY 2014-15 budget, These
increases reflect actual receipt projections for the current year including fees collected on rate increases
for solid waste collections and cable fees.
Investment Earnings are projected to increase by 36.7% in FY 2015-16. Though this is a large
percentage increase, in dollars the amount is an increase of $10,000 over the current year. Staff is
projecting interest rates will begin to rise from the historical lows experienced since the recession.
Intergovernmental Revenue is proposed to increase 11.5% over the adopted FY 2014-15 budget.
There is no one particular source of revenue in this category that is experiencing a notable increase.
Expenditures
Overall operating expenditures are projected to increase by 3.5%, or $342,088, over the adopted
FY 2014-15 budget. General Fund operating expenditures are proposed to increase by 4.0%, or
$316,413. The positions of Police Captain and Town Attorney will be provided under a contractual
basis in FY 2015-16. With the elimination of these two positions and with negotiated salary and benefit
adjustments, in FY 2015-16 salary and benefits will decrease by 1.22% or $67,727 over FY 2014-15.
All employees who are considered "classic" members of Ca1PERS will receive a net 3% pay increase, as
they will be picking up an additional 1% or 3% of the employers rate based on coverage group. As the
Town contributes the dollar amount of the Kaiser two-party rate towards cafeteria plan insurances, the
Town has increased the amount for 2015 by 4.5%, which is the rate approved by the Ca1PERS Board on
May 19, 2015. Additional expenditure increases over the current fiscal year include approximately
$287,000 in contractual services for the attorney and Police Captain.
The bar chart below shows the FY 2015-16 Operating Budget by department. Further clarification of
department expenditure variations are explained below.
Tiburon Town Council

The Administration Department's overall budget is proposed to increase by 0.6% or $10,598 over the
current year. Included in Administration are the Legal Services, Legislative Support, Administrative Services
and Town Hall divisions.
The Administrative Services
Division is proposed to increase by
3.1% or $33,742. Salary and benefit
changes account for an increase of
6.2% or $50,474 over the current
year's budget. In addition to proposed
salary increases, the position of Office
Assistant is now being filled at a 0.9
FTE level as opposed to 0.5% prior to
Joan Palmero's retirement at an
additional cost of $20,000. The
Casual Hire appropriation is being
reduced by $10,000 based on actual
needs for FY 2015-16. Consulting
Services has been reduced by $26,000
in FY 2015-16 as tri -annual actuaries
are not needed for OPEB valuations.

The Legal Services Division is proposed to decrease by 5.9% or $15,526, due to the elimination
of salary and benefits for an in-house attorney. An appropriation of $175,000 has been added to
contractual services for legal services.
The Legislative Support Division's total appropriation is being increased by $10,000, as a
contingency line -item is created for the purpose of funding any unanticipated expenditures or donations
during the year. All other line items remain unchanged.
The Town Hall Facility Division is proposed to decrease by 6.4% or $17,200. This decrease is
the net of increasing the Recruiting and Background appropriation by $25,000 to hire an outside firm to
recruit for the next Town Manager, and a decrease of $31,500 in Capital Outlay expenses.
The Community Development Department, which includes the Planning, Building and the Long
Range Planning Division, budget is proposed to decrease by 2.0% or $25,022.
The Planning Division budget is proposed to increase 4.2% or $21,300, to reflect salary and
benefit increases.
The Building Division budget is scheduled to increase 2.3% or $13,678. This includes an
increase of 2.4% or $12,178 in salary and benefits, and an increase of 1.7% or $1,500 in supplies and
services. The Town is appropriating $40,000 in the Casual Hire line item, which is $10,000 less than
FY 2014-15, in order to retain outside services while the Town brings the department up to full staffing
after a complete turnover during FY 2014-15.
Tiburon Town Council
June 3, 2015
Page6of7
The Long Range Planning Division budget is proposed to decrease by $60,000 as the Town
winds down the various updates to the General Plan.
The Police Department budget is projected to increase by 1.4% or $41,892. Salary and benefit
costs are proposed to decrease by 2.9% or $72,633. This is due to the elimination of the Captain
position, combined with the retirement of the Police Secretary position in late July. It is proposed that
the Secretary position be eliminated, and that the normal staffing of 2.1 Police Services Aides be
increased to 2.75. This staffing reallocation will provide the same level of service at a slightly reduced
cost. The contractual services appropriation is increased to $112,000 to account for the Captain
services being provided by the City of Belvedere. There are no other notable changes proposed in the
Police Department budget for the fiscal year.
The Public Works Department, which includes Administration, Streets, Parks, and Street Lights
budget, is proposed to increase by 6.9% or $97,139 over last year. Salary and benefits are proposed to
increase 4.7% or $45,089. This is due to the combination of negotiated salary increases and new
employees moving through their salary ranges. Supplies and Services are increasing 13.4% or $52,050.
A new appropriation of $15,000 is included in the Administration & Engineering Division for a required
street speed survey, and $15,000 in the Parks Maintenance Division for special maintenance for the Old
Rail Trail. There are also proposed increases of $10,000 for restroom maintenance and $5,000 for
landscaping materials.
The Non -Departmental budget is proposed to increase 8.0% or $187,481 in FY 2015-16.
Expenses in the Non -Departmental budget relate to insurance premiums (workers compensation,
liability, and property), Joint Powers Agreements, Town -owned housing units and the Belvedere -
Tiburon Library Agency property tax pass -though. The Town has very little control over most expenses
in this budget. The Insurances and Governmental Division is proposed to increase 12.6% or $101,574.
The major contributors to this increase are costs for retiree medical allowances, Worker's Compensation
insurance, and minor increases to the various Joint Power Authority dues. The Low -Moderate Income
Housing Division is increasing by $12,500 to reflect the proposed contribution to the regional Marin
Homelessness program. The Belvedere -Tiburon Library Agency Division is increasing by 6.4% or
$91,630. This is strictly due to increased property tax receipts that will be passed through to the Library
Agency.
Infrastructure Improvements and Capital Projects
The FY 2015-16 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget is proposed at $3,086,000. There
is carry-over funding from the current fiscal year in the amount of $433,000 for projects that will not be
commenced prior to June 30, 2015. The Town continues its normal street improvement program
funding of $750,000 this year. There are two crosswalk improvement projects that will be funded by
Safe Route to School Grants proposed for FY 2015-16. The crossings are on Tiburon Boulevard at
Ned's Way and at Blackfield Drive.
The FY 2015-16 Capital Improvement Budget allocates $600,000 in drainage improvement
projects, of which $100,000 is for storm drain flushing. The Town has experienced some storm drain
subsidence on Stewart Drive and $500,000 is needed to replace or repair 1,100 ft. of storm drains. The
Tiburon Town Council
June 3, 2015
Page 7 of 7
majority of these improvements are funded through the General Fund Drainage Reserve as the Town
does not have an adequate dedicated funding source for drainage projects.
The Community Projects Division of the CIP Program allocates $1,399,000 in projects. As
noted above, the $433,000 in carry over projects are in this division. New projects include the
"Blackie's Two" project which provides for a new path, grading, fencing and three picnic bench areas.
It is proposed that the Town Hall building be painted and significant ridge trail improvements be made
on a dedicated portion of the Rabin property on Hacienda Drive.
A five-year Capital Improvement Program Plan projection is included with the budget. It provides
Council and Staff with a forecast of CIP projects. It should be noted that the Council is not being asked
to adopt this five-year outlook, as it will surely shift as needs and resources come into clearer focus.
Rather, its purpose is to help anticipate future expenditures and demands on the budget.
CONCLUSION
The Town Council and community can once again be assured that the Town of Tiburon is
financially sound. The economy has stabilized and decisions that were made in recent years have
positioned the Town to once again project General Fund operating reserves. Through employee
negotiations, in FY 2015-16 classic members of the retirement system will go beyond paying 100% of
their employee share of pension cost and start paying a portion of the employer's contribution as well.
This will help the Town absorb increased pension costs projected over the next five years. On the
revenue front, as always, staff will continue to carefully manage the Town's finances to assure that
revenues are collected in a timely manner and that all expenses are scrutinized.
The entire management team is to be commended for their assistance in developing the Town's
Municipal Budget Plan and for their contribution to sound budget stewardship all year long. We also
wish to thank the Town Council Ad Hoc Budget Committee members, Vice -Mayor Erin Tollini and
Councilmember Emmett O'Donnell, for their review, comment and good counsel during the budget
preparation process. We look forward to a dialogue with the Town Council on the budget and it its
timely adoption for the start of the new fiscal year on July 1, 2015.
