T'
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Town Council of the Town of
Tiburon does hereby make the following findings:
1. The Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project, which consists of the Initial Study
document dated May 1997, the Negative Declaration form and the Mitigation
Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP), adequately assesses the potential
environmental impacts of the proposed general plan amendment.
2. The proposed general plan amendment would be consistent with the Tiburon General
Plan in that it would establish an appropriate land use designation for a site that is to
be developed with housing for senior citizens. The amendment would acknowledge
and reinforce one ofTiburon's primary housing goals, which is to provide a variety of
housing types which will meet the needs of present and future residents of Tiburon
(General Plan Housing Element - Goal H-A).
3. The amendment would be consistent with Housing Policy H-28, which encourages
the provision oflow income housing units, especially for single persons, single parents,
elderly and young families; and Policy H-2, which encourages the promotion of
residential opportunities through the unique powers of the Redevelopment Agency.
The project site is located within the boundaries of the Tiburon Redevelopment
Agency (TRA) project area. The TRA may provide funding to assist in the
construction of at least four very low income units.

The proposed general plan amendment would not be detrimental to the existing and
planned uses of adjacent property (the Hilarita Apartments, Reed School, Belvedere-
Tiburon Child Care Center, Tiburon Police Department.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Town Council hereby
adopts the general plan amendment to Diagram LU-3 (Land Use) of the Land Use Element,
changing the land use designation of the subject property, as described in attached Exhibit
"A", from 'Public/Quasi-Public' to 'Very High Density Residential'.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Director is directed to file a Notice
of Determination with the County Clerk within five (5) working days of the project approval.
