Based on all testimony, review of all documents in the record and personal site visits to both the McDonnell and Krabbenschmidt residences, the Council denied the appeal unanimously. NOW, 'FHEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Town Council of the Town of Tiburon that: 1. The appeal of Jocelyn and Edward McDonnell is denied based on the following findings: a) The Krabbenschmidt's have made all reasonable efforts to preserve the McDonnell's views as suggested in Goal 3, Principle 3 of the Tiburon Design Guidelines for Hillside Dwellings. Specifically, the Krabbenschmidt's have lowered the height of their addition from 14 feet to 11.5 feet. While the McDonnell's would like the height lowered by another six inches, the Board and Council find that doing so is not practicable given the constraints in constructing the addition. b) Based on personal visits to the McDonnell residence and observing the story poles on the Krabbenschmidt property, the loss of some water view from the McDonnell's residence is not significant from any of the ceremonial rooms in the residence. ~ 2. The decision of the DRB approving the site and architectural plans for the addition to the single family residence at 690 Hilary Drive is affirmed subject to the conditions imposed by the DRB. I PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Town Council of the Town of Tiburon on June 21, 1995, by the following vote: r~ AYES: COUNCILMEMBERS: NOES: COUNCILMEMBERS: ABSTAIN: THOMPSON, GINALSKI, THAYER, NYGREN, WOLF NONE COUNCILMEMBERS: .
