RESOLUTION NO. 3074
A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE
TOWN OF TIBURON ADOPTING A POLICY
WITH RESPECT TO PREZONING AND ANNEXATION
OF ESTABLISHED NEIGHBORHOODS
WHEREAS, the Town of Tiburon does from time to time prezone and annex
into the Town unincorporated territory consistent with the goals and policies of the
Tiburon General Plan; and
WHEREAS, upon occasion, such unincorporated territory is already developed
into an established neighborhood With specific development patterns (setbacks, lot
coverage limits, etc.) which do not match existing zoning district regulations in the
Tiburon Zoning Ordinance, and could result in the creation of numerous "non.
conforming structures" which were previously conforming; and
WHEREAS, in such instances, the Town believes that the promotion of the
general welfare dictates that creation of such non-conformities be avoided where
reasonably possible, along with any disruption of established development patterns
which could result from an i1I.fitting prezoning; and .
r
WHEREAS, the Town does not intend this policy to be so broadly applied that
it perpetuates clearly sub.standard setbacks or other development criteria which are
detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Town Council of the Town
of Tiburon does hereby adopt the following policy concerning prezoning and
annexation of established neighborhoods:
"Where appropriate, the Town will make use of overlay zones or other zoning
techniques to ensure that prezoning and annexation of existing established
neighborhoods does not result in excessive creation of non.conforming
structures, nor unreasonably disrupt the existing pattern of development of
such a neighborhood."
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that Town Staff is directed to incorporate this
policy into the Tiburon General Plan at the first convenient opportunity.
