Office of the Town Clerk
Consider Reappointment of Commissioners and Appointments to Fill
Vacancies on Town Boards, Commissions and Committees
e,
BACKGROUND
At the January 20, 2016 regular meeting, Mayor Tollini announced the current and pending
vacancies on Town boards, commissions and committees in the coming year. Pursuant to Town
Council Resolution No. 16-2007 (Appointments Procedure), the Town Clerk published a Notice
of Current & Pending Vacancies on Boards & Commissions in the Ark, and posted it at Town
Hall and the Belvedere -Tiburon Library. This notice serves to inform the public of the current or
pending vacancies and invites applications for the positions. To date, there have been two
applicants for current or pending vacancies on The Ranch (Recreation) Committee and the
Building Code Appeals Board. (The Council will interview the applicant for The Ranch vacancy
tonight.)
The Town Clerk contacted all the current commissioners whose terms were set to expire in
February, and the majority of them notified the Town of their interest in seeking reappointment to
another term. One commissioner, Heritage & Arts Commissioner Kenna Norris, is eligible for
automatic reappointment under the Town's policy because she has served less than two years.
To recap, the terms of the following board and commission members expired on February 29,
2016:
• Planning Commission — Lou Weller (seeks reappointment)
• Design Review Board — Bryan Chong; Michael Tollini (both seek reappointment)
• Heritage & Arts Commission — Daniel Amir; Kenna Norris (both seek reappointment)
• Parks, Open Space & Trails Corrunission— Michael McMullen; Phillip Feldman (both
seek reappointment)
Unscheduled Vacancies
An unscheduled vacancy was created by the resignation of The Ranch (Recreation) Committee
member, Nuria Ibars, who submitted her resignation in February and stepped down after nearly
four years on the Committee. The Council will interview Erin Burns tonight for this vacancy.
Tov.. n Council Mccrin ;
March 2. 2016
Another unscheduled vacancy occurred due to the resignation of Heritage & Arts Commissioner,
Elizabeth Merrill, who recently moved out of town. The Council will have an opportunity to
interview candidates for this position at a future meeting.
Other Vacancies
There are several boards or committees on which there has been a vacancy of a year, or more.
One is the Town's Building Code Appeals Board, a five -member board that has had an open seat
since one of the incumbents stepped down last year. The Council will have an opportunity to
interview an applicant for this vacancy on April 6. The other is the Hilarita Board (Town
representative to the Board) that has had an open seat for a town -appointed citizen representative
for several years.
There is also a pending vacancy on the Library Agency Board of Trustees, in June of this year.
Town appointee Jeff Foran will be contacted in the coming weeks to determine his interest in
seeking another term. The term of Tiburon Artist Laureate, Jaleh Etemad, will likewise expire in
August of this year. There are currently no provisions for reappointment for this position.
Finally, the Town's Treasurer, William Osher, stepped down last Fall. The Town is in the process
of updating its job description for this position.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Town Council:
1. Consider reappointment (by Council motion) of the following board and commission
members whose terms expired at the end of February 2016, who have informed the Town
of their interest in reappointment:
a) Lou Weller (Planning Commission)
b) Bryan Chong and Michael Tollini (Design Review Board)
c) Daniel Amir and Kenna Norris (Heritage & Arts Commission)
d) Michael McMullen and Phillip Feldman (Parks, Open Space & Trails Commission);

Dear Diane, thank you for your letter regarding my expiring term as a POST Commissioner. I have enjoyed
serving as a Commissioner, and I would be glad to renew my commitment for another term. However, I am also
aware that others may wish to serve the community in this way. If there are other qualified applicants who wish

Community Development Department
Consider Acceptance of the Annual General Plan Implementation
Status Report for Calendar Year 2015
BACKGROUND
Government Code Section 65400(b)(1) requires that an annual report be prepared by the planning
agency of each town or city, which is then forwarded to the appropriate legislative body, on the
status of the General Plan and progress in its implementation. In Tiburon, the "planning agency"
is the Planning Commission. The statute also requires a progress report on meeting the
community's regional fair share housing allocations. State law also requires that the annual
report be forwarded to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)
and to the Governor's Office of Planning & Research (OPR) in Sacramento by April 1 of each
year.
ANALYSIS
Attached Exhibit 1 sets forth the General Plan programs and describes recent progress made by
the Town in implementing those programs. Please note the Housing Element portion is formatted
differently in order to comply with detailed state requirements for reporting on that Element.
Progress and commentary added or amended for calendar year 2015 is underlined for easy
identification in the case of all Elements. The Housing Element was new for 2015, so all entries
are underlined.
PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW
The Planning Commission reviewed the draft annual report at its February 24, 2016 regular
meeting and recommended acceptance to the Town Council.

Study completed in September 2006 by CSW/Stuber-Stroeh regarding current conditions and costs of
improving and maintaining Paradise Drive. Discussions with County of Marin and Marin LAFCO
followed. The Town was unable to reach an agreement with the County over future maintenance.
Formal discussions ended in December 2009, although the Town continues to be alert for opportunities to
continue the dialogue with the County on this issue. With the annexation of the SODA (Alta Robles
project) property completed in 2013, there are currently no additional portions of Paradise Drive which
the Town has committed to annex. The Martha Company MOU, which contemplated but made no
commitment to annexation that would include a 1.1 mile portion of Paradise Drive, was allowed to expire
by the Martha Company in 2014. Recent Town consideration of possibly taking over Tiburon Boulevard
in the Downtown area (if it reaches fruition) could further reduce the likelihood of additional Paradise
Drive annexations, based on economic considerations.

Zoning Ordinance was amended in 2006 to upzone properties and to provide incentives for affordable

and the Town Council appointed the Town of Tiburon as the successor agency to the Tiburon
Redevelopment Agency for purposes of fulfilling its housing production requirements. An updated
Redevelopment Project Area Housing Implementation Plan was adopted by the Town Council in
2012.The Housing Element and the Implementation Plan continue to designate several properties in the
former Redevelopment Project Area boundaries for housing purposes, with incentives offered. In 2012,
2013, and 2014, no new affordable units were constructed in the Tiburon Redevelopment Project area.

Property owners and agents are advised of these guidelines and are provided copies of the Handbook.
Staff continues to hold discussions with property owners for the purpose of encouraging projects that
promote the goals of the Handbook. New streetlight fixtures were installed in 2008 to eliminate glare
problems from the older fixtures. Staff continues to review development applications for opportunities to
implement this program. For example, the Boardwalk Shopping Center improvements associated with
Woodlands Market include wider sidewalks and safer vehicle entry points, among other improvements.
The hanging flower basket program was initiated and continues to be performed annually. In 2011, the
CVS pharmacy tenant made numerous property upgrades including but not limited to new and wider
sidewalks on its Tiburon Boulevard and Beach Road frontages, new landscaping and lighting, and cross-
walk improvements. In 2012, the Town commissioned the Downtown Tiburon Circulation and Parking
Analysis, which contains recommendations that if implemented, would seek to improve the Downtown
Tiburon Boulevard streetscape. In 2012, the Town Council also took preliminary steps to initiate a
relinquishment process with Caltrans for the portion of State Route 131 in the Downtown area, partly in
an effort to obtain more control over streetscape appearance and improvements. In 2014, the Town
secured Caltrans approval for a mid -block crosswalk in Tiburon Boulevard opposite the Tiburon Lodge,

In 2007, the Town and the Reed Union School District received a Safe Routes to School Grant in the
amount of $352,000 for improvements focusing around Del Mar Middle School. Construction of these
improvements was completed in 2010. In 2011, the Town spear -headed formation of CART
(Community Action to Reduce Traffic), a joint effort by the Town of Tiburon, the City of Belvedere, the
Town of Corte Madera, the Reed Union School District, and the local Safe Routes to School coordinator
to explore traffic congestion reduction measures for the peninsula. In September 2012, following nearly
a year of meetings and study, CART held a public meeting at Reed School and received public comment
and suggestions. CART is continuing to study implementation of suggested means of reducing traffic
congestion on the Peninsula. In 2014, the Town, City of Belvedere, and Reed Union School District
initiated the Yellow School Bus Challenge project to increase school bus ridership and reduce traffic
congestion on Tiburon Boulevard during School drop-off and pick-up hours. While the program was
unable to be implemented for the 2014/15 school year, plans for a more robust Yellow School Bus
Challenge 2.0 were set up for implementation in 2015 for the 2015/16 school year. The Yellow School

Within its limited scope and resources, the Recreation Needs Assessment touched upon the issue of
demand for a community center. The term "community center" is broad and means different things to
different people. While 48% of residents surveyed rated the importance of a community center with
space for programs, classes, and events as "extremely" or "very important", the survey fell short of
identifying strong support for pursuing a community center on the Peninsula. The Assessment's authors
concluded that in any future [recreation -related] study, the interest in and specific features of a
community center should be explored. This should include a "willingness to pay" component for a
major facility of this type. While not a community center, the Dairy Knoll Recreation facility now
provides additional programming space for a variety of recreational and community events to serve
community needs.

Mayor and Members of the Town Council
Department of Public Works
Subject: Pro sed McKegney Green Soccer Field Upgrade
%
Reviewed By: t
BACKGROUND
From Spring 2015 until early this year, staff has met with representatives of the Tiburon
Peninsula Soccer Club (TPSC), outside consultants, Council Member O'Donnell and Mayor
Tollini regarding the condition of McKegney Green and a potential project to upgrade the field.
The playing field at McKegney Green was constructed in 1975. Per the original plans, the
current field is 330 feet by 225 feet or 74,250 square feet. Since that time, it has received
minimal maintenance including: reseeding, limited resodding, and repairs to drainage and
irrigation as needed. For instance, in 2014, Public Works spent about $10,000 in maintenance on
the field. The playing field is currently in poor condition, with the field surface exhibiting
significant inconsistency in the areas of turf growth, wear resistance and drainage. In addition,
the irrigation and drainage systems are aged and operating beyond their expected useful life,
resulting in some areas that are too dry for proper growth and other areas that are muddy and tear
up easily under the stress of play.
Sand fields require regular watering. McKegney Green is currently watered exclusively with
recycled water from Richardson Bay Sanitation District, the use of which is limited by permit,
especially during the winter months. Without irrigation, a sand field will not survive a dry
winter. Furthermore, the salts in recycled water are hard on turf. Mill Valley blends their
recycled water with potable water and actually uses more potable water overall than recycled
water. The Town currently pays about $17,000 per year for recycled water, which includes the
water used at South of Knoll Park as well as McKegney Green.
TPSC has suggested a potential partnership in funding the construction of a new sand based turf
field, similar to those in Mill Valley. The proposed field would be 135,000 to 150,000 square
feet in size, about double the size of the existing field and large enough for a full sized soccer
field and a smaller play field. The proposed field would be larger than Friend's Field in Mill
Valley — their largest and best field.

ANALYSIS
Estimated Construction Costs:
TPSC has solicited preliminary proposals for estimated construction costs of the proposed field
and received four cost proposals from two sources for various quality fields. The lowest cost was
for construction only, included numerous exclusions, and was for the smaller 135,000 square foot
field. Adjusting for these differences the estimated construction costs for the 150,000 square foot
field would be $720,000. The highest estimate for construction was $1.3 million. This is
construction only, without contingency, design, or construction management costs. It also does
not include a new potable water connection.
Staff has investigated the cost of a new potable water connection for McKegney Green. The cost
of the connection depends on the amount of water we will need. MMWD predicts we will need at
least 10 acre feet per year for a 150,000 square foot field. Based on actual use at another Marin
site, the use could be 15.4 acre feet per year. Within these boundaries the cost of the water
connection would be between $300,000 and $460,000. Additional construction costs would be
needed to connect to MMWD water, and install the meter and backflow devices. Additional
study is needed to determine the exact irrigation requirements.
This cost of irrigation water could potentially be reduced by using recycled water. However, the
rules for recycled water have changed and it is likely that a change to the field will require
updating the permit for discharge. Upgrades to provide tertiary water could cost about $500,000
and require additional design, permitting and time. Additional study is needed to determine what
will be required, the costs and whether it is economically advantageous to continue to use
recycled water.
Based on the figures outlined above, the total cost to construct a 150,000 square foot field could
vary from $1.3 million to $2.2 million as shown in the table below. Design costs were estimated
at 8.5% in the estimates. This may be low given that the design will require:
1. Environmental review, including an Initial Study
2. BCDC permits
3. SWPPP development and filing with the State.
Contingency in the estimates included a design contingency of 10% and a construction
contingency of 10%, for a total contingency of 20%.
These costs do not include any upgrades to the recycled water treatment system.

Town Council Meeting

Ongoing maintenance of proposed new field:
If a new sand turf field is constructed, we anticipate additional ongoing costs for it to be properly
maintained. This includes costs associated with increased watering, increased maintenance, and
regular resodding.
Water costs depend on the water baseline, which can never be more than the amount paid for in
the connection fee. Up to 85% of the baseline, the cost is $3.65 per hundred cubic feet (CCF).
From 86% to 150% of baseline the cost is $9.37/CCF and the cost is $14.41/CFF above 150% of
the baseline. Assuming the lowest tier, the water costs for irrigation could vary from $16,000 to
$25,000 per year.
Sand turf fields need to be resodded about every 5 years at an annualized cost of about $35,000
per year.
Mill Valley spends about $500,000 per year in watering and routine maintenance on their nine
fields, an average of $55,000 per year per field. The proposed field at McKegney Green is larger
than any of the Mill Valley fields, so we can anticipate that the annual routine maintenance will
be at least $30,000 per year if the field is to be preserved ($55,000 less $25,000 for watering).
The Town has not performed maintenance at this level in the past which is one reason the field is
in its current condition.
Total annual costs for irrigation, regular maintenance and major maintenance could run from
$80,000 to $90,000 per year on average.
The variations for estimated construction and maintenance costs are large, due mainly to the
following variables:
1. Number and type of permits required.
2. Water source and cost
3. Quality of the playing field.
4. Size of the playing field
If the Council wishes staff to further refine the proposed project, staff recommends Council
consider authorizing a pre—design scoping study to better determine the project requirements for a
renovation of Mckegney Field. The proposed study would assume the baseline goal is to install
an updated sand based natural turf field and that the field dimensions will be increased to
maximize the site's potential. Alternative field size options and additional surrounding park
improvements will also be considered to evaluate their effect on water use, the permitting process
and total estimated project cost. Staff has received a proposal from Abbey -Arnold Associates for
a pre -design scoping study. The proposal is attached.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The pre -design scoping study as proposed will cost $17,280.00. The 2015/16 CIP included a
Project Set Aside of $400,000. Funds for this study could come from this project.
Field design and construction is estimated at $1.3 to $2.2 million. Ongoing water and
maintenance will be an average of $80,000 to $90,000 per year.

TPSC has discussed a partnership for the funding. The amount they might be able to contribute is
not yet clear. At one time during the discussions TPSC stated they believed they could raise
$100,000 to $ 150,000.
Cost for construction of the field could come from the General Fund unallocated reserve.
Cost for increased irrigation and maintenance would be added to the Public Works annual
operations budget.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Town Council:
1. Receive the Staff Report, and provide direction to staff regarding the proposed McKegney
Green Project.
2. Direct the Town Manager to execute the proposal for a pre -design scoping study with
Abbey Arnold Associates.

RE: Scoping Study for Landscape Architectural Services, Water Quality Engineering
and Environmental Permitting for McKegney Field
Scope of Work:
Provide a scoping study to determine project requirements for the renovation of McKegney Field
in Tiburon.
It will be assumed that the goal for the project is to install an updated sand based natural grass
field and that the field dimensions will be increase to maximize the site's potential. Alternative
field size options and additional surrounding park improvements will be considered to evaluate
their effect on the total cost of the project, it's water use, and the permitting process.
Included are:
1. Water Quality Engineer Consultant to review the facility's existing water use permits and
the ramifications to the current permit if the field is altered.
2. Environmental Consultant to evaluate BCDC permitting requirements and their
associated costs.
3. Have a Certified Irrigation Designer evaluate possible irrigation system scenarios, and
their effect on the installation costs and maintenance. (Pumps, filters, subsurface....)
4. Provide the projected soft costs for BCDC permitting, construction documents and
construction administration.
5. Provide conceptual field and park design alternatives for use in developing water use
and budget requirements. (three alternatives)
6. Estimate the projected construction costs, with contingencies.
7. Based on locally managed similar fields, provide projected water use and maintenance
requirements. Included will be the associated costs for installation of the irrigation
system and special irrigation and maintenance procedures necessary for a successful
sand based turf field.

Scope, (Estimated Hours and Fees):
• Review treatment plant effluent production rates and review their current
discharge permit language to determine the maximum amount available for
discharge on the fields. (8 Hrs. @ $120/hr. + 2 Hr. @ $170/hr. = $1,300).
• Contact the Regional Water Quality Control Board, Division of Drinking Water
(DDW) and query them on their policies regarding existing secondary effluent
uses and gauge their willingness to continue to allow secondary use at the
playing field for the following conditions: 1) that the existing system is not
changed and the expansion is irrigated using potable sources with a separate
irrigation system; 2) the existing system is expanded but supplemented with
potable water (blended system), and; 3) the expansion is irrigated entirely with
secondary effluent as is currently the case (assuming the available quantity of
effluent is sufficient). (4 Hrs. @ $120/hr. = $480).
• Research and size connection options and equipment; Contact MMWD and
determine connection fees and monthly rates for the potable water options. (4
Hrs. @ $120/hr. _ $480).
• Assuming the plant produces sufficient effluent to fully irrigate the fields
including the planned expansion, briefly research filtering and disinfection
options and their costs, including siting and ancillary facilities in case any option
triggers DDW to want to enforce tertiary only irrigation. (8 Hrs. @ $120/hr. + 2
Hrs. @ $170/hr. = 1,300).
• Prepare engineering and construction design estimates for options deemed
acceptable to DDW and prepare technical memorandum of results. (10 Hrs.
@$120/hr. + 2 Hrs. @ $170/hr. = $1,540).
• Miscellaneous time for communications, meetings (2), and other exhibits and
reimbursable items. (L.S. = $2,000).
The total time effort for this work adds up to approximately 50 hours. T&M, not -to -exceed fee
estimate, including a minor contingency for hours already expended is $8,000.
If no effort is expended on a tertiary option, the hours would be revised, (approx. $6,600).
Our deliverable will be a memorandum which will include an exhibit (or exhibits) showing the
options considered, and will provide a recommendation for a preferred option to the Town.
Kelly Biological:
Scope (Estimated Hours and Fees)
• Conduct 1 site visit (assumes 2 hours total)
• Attend 1 meeting to review and discuss options (assumes 2 hours total)
• Provide 3 hours of input on site opportunities and constraints.
• Prepare a brief letter report addressing the key biological and related regulatory
issues of the various alternatives.
Budget 16 hours @ 140/hour = $2,240
