ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
Gary Glover, Spanish Trail Road, and John Meyer, Paradise Drive, complained of two, new 50-
poles installed by PG&E at the terminus of the Lyford Cove Utility Undergrounding District,
which have been installed and now stand directly within their view corridors. Mr. Glover, who
resides outside of the district, nevertheless asked the Council to require the poles to be moved
another 50 feet to ameliorate the problem. Mr. Meyer, who resides within the district, said that
he had paid for the lines and poles to come down and asked that they be moved or removed from
his view.
Mayor Gram said that the Council was aware of the problem and that staff was in serious
discussions with PG&E regarding the matter. He said that Mr. Glover and Mr. Meyer would be
notified if the matter came back to the Council for action.

ACTION ITEMS
1. MMWD Pipeline Replacement Project Equipment Staging Area - Consideration of
use of Town property at various locations including the Blackie's Pasture area (where
staging is currently occurring) and at the southern Shoreline Point near South of the
Knoll field as a temporary construction staging area from May 2007 through
completion of the project, anticipated to be October 2007 (Director of Public
Works/Town Engineer Nguyen)
Director of Public Works/Town Engineer Nguyen gave the report. He said that the MMWD
Fire Flow Pipe Replacement contract had been awarded to Ghilotti Construction. He said that
in order to complete the project by the anticipated completion date of late September or early
October (2007), the company had requested the use of two staging areas, one to park their
equipment and the other to stockpile materials.
While the Town is not contractually required to provide staging areas for this project, Nguyen
pointed out that the Town is a beneficiary, not only of increased water flow reliability but
through improvements that would be constructed to the Multi-Use Path as part of the contract.
The Director said that nearby staging areas would increase safety and efficiency of the project
as well as reduce environmental impacts from reduced truck trips back and forth to the site.
Director Nguyen listed several proposed staging areas, delineated on a map hand-out as
Locations 1, 2, 3 and 4. He said that none of the proposed areas were without some negative
Town Council Minutes #09-2007
May 2,2007
Page 2
impact but he said that Staff believed that Locations 1 (Southern Shoreline Point near South of
the Knoll field) and 4 (supplemental Blackie's Pasture Overflow Parking area) were preferable
in terms of proximity and reduced new impact on surrounding areas.
The other locations presented for consideration were Location 2 (field North of Richardson Bay
Sanitary District); Location 3 (Blackie's Meadow/field West of Blackie's Grove). He noted
that the sites located to the east of the Sanitary District yard would require Ghilotti
Construction trucks to cross the [Sam Shapero] bridge to get to the project area.
Ali Yazdi, Ghilotti Construction Vice President, Heavy-Highway Division, said that Location 1
would have the less impact on pedestrians and bicyclists than the other areas; however, he said
that Location No 2 was preferable to Location No.4 for materials storage. Mr. Yazdi described
the size and use of Location 1, which he said would be an 100 by 100 foot fenced area for small
equipment and storage containers. He said that grass would be restored in the area of Location
1, if it were utilized by the company.
Councilmember Smith asked whether staging would make a difference in terms of speed of
completing the project. Mr. Yazdi said that having a local staging area would eliminate
unnecessary moving of materials and equipment on a daily basis; he said that having large
trucks in motion from outside the project area would increase traffic and create potential safety
hazards on the path.
Mr. Yazdi stated that the company had planned to start the project at the beginning (rather than
at the end) of May in order to complete on time. He said that if they were not awarded a
staging area, there might be delays.
Vice Mayor Slavitz asked whether the path would remain open during the project. Mr. Yazdi
said that the company was required to provide a minimum six-foot (open) pathway for
pedestrians and bicyclists as part of the contract. He noted out that they would work in 250-
foot [closed] segments down the path.
Kevin McDonnell, MMWD proj ect engineer, said that his agency had placed many constraints
in the contract in order to accommodate the public use; he also stated that the contract had been
let to one of the most competent and reputable contractors arounQ.. However, Mr. McDonnell
said that the agency and town were obliged to facilitate the contractor in order to get the project
underway by the end of May. He said that the contractor was ready to start construction
immediately.
Mayor Gram opened the public hearing. He said that Location 3 was "off the table" because no
one wanted to use it. He asked the public to provide a "better idea" if they did not like a
particular location for staging.
Margo Grundheim, Mercury Avenue, said that people were tired of Location 4 being used for
staging. She presented a petition signed by people opposing this use. She also said that
Town Council Minutes #09-2007
May 2, 2007
Page 3
Location 1 seemed better as it was closest to the Multi-use Path. If Location 4 were used, Ms.
Grundheim asked that it be hidden with foliage.
Hazel Caldwell, Sutter Court, submitted a letter to the Council opposing the staging on
Shoreline Point or in any public park and open space area. She asked the Council to consider
adopting a resolution stating that "our parks and shoreline are off limits to contraCtors." She
suggested further discussion of the issue and asked what would happen if there was no [local]
place to stage.
Larry Smith, speaking in concurrence with the Tiburon Peninsula Foundation Board, also asked
the Council to imagine there were no local areas for staging and to proceed on that basis. He
said that a precedent would be hard to undo and that the Council needed to take a "courageous
stand" to not use parks for construction staging areas.
Mr. Smith suggested use of best practices such as ')ust in time," in order to address the need
for materials storage in the area. He said that he doubted that it would take any longer to
complete the project if storage were elsewhere. He said that projects were completed within
the City of Belvedere without local staging areas (on public property).
Mayor Gram asked Mr. Smith what he thought of Location 2 (adjacent to the Sanitary District
plant). Smith conceded that it was a "more acceptable" location than the others.
Margo Zender, Hilary Drive, said that she did not support staging on "sacred" parkland.
Karen Tripp, Jefferson Drive, said that the current staging (in Location 4) was very noisy and
dusty. She also submitted a petition with 50 signatures and said that she and her neighbors
were "appalled" when they had received notice of the proposed project staging in the area.'
Mayor Gram asked for additional comments form the contractor. A discussion ensued of
staging on the path itself.
Mr. Yazdi described the difficulties in staging on a path that was only eight-feet wide; he said
that the only way to do this was to use small equipment; larger equipment was needed for ')ust
in time" proj ects with which they were familiar. But he said that 10- foot wide trucks would
never fit on the path; also that there was no room to stockpile materials on the path.
In response to a question from Vice Mayor Slavitz, Mr. Yazdi said that it was not impossible to
stage on the path because materials could be stored in the landscaped area (which could later be
restored).
Mr. Yazdi said that Ghilotti Construction was a savvy contractor and proud of its name; he said
that they would not "trash" the area and that the results would be evident. He said that while
they were "at the mercy of' the Town, the Town would benefit from the project. Also, he
Town Council Minutes #09-2007
May 2, 2007
Page 4
noted that the company had offered to donate a sum of money to the Town in exchange for
local staging.
Ralph Ardito, Ghilotti Construction Operations Manager, said that he had worked on the path
before it existed in its current form (for the sewer installation project). At that time, Mr. Ardito
said that the area was closed to the public; in this case, MMWD and the Town had wanted to
keep the path open to the public during construction. He noted that it would be "daunting" for
both the crews and the public due to a very, very tight fit with little room to work. He said that
closing the path would make safety less of an issue for all involved, but noted that there were
trade-offs.
Mr. Ardito said that Location 4 was already a parking lot (as opposed to parkland) and its use
would lighten the loads of trucks getting onto the path.
Mayor Gram asked if the path were closed, would there be enough room for materials and
equipment storage. Mr. Ardito replied affirmatively.
Petey Stein, Lagoon Road, Belvedere, asked how much time would be saved through path
closure. Ali replied that it would "double our production" and the project could be done in half
the time.
Mr. McDonnell said the other possibilities that had been considered were working at night and
staging into the street (detours on Tiburon Boulevard). Neither of these options had been
considered acceptable, according to McDonnell.
Vice Mayor Slavitz described how the project would progress on the path, with workers in a
"cage" of 250 feet length, and the new path would appear behind them as they moved along.
Mr. McDonnell added that the MMWD contract had required that they also have a flagman
"walker" with every vehicle that came onto the path. He added that "we have tried to help in
every way possible" to ensure the safety and success of the project.
Mayor Gram closed the public hearing.
Councilmember Fredericks asked if there were changes to the contract, such as allowing path
closure, would the contract have to be re-bid. Mr. McDonnell said that it probably would have
to be. Director Nguyen added that staging in any CAL/TRANS right-of-way would require
encroachment permits from that agency, as well, thus causing further delays.
Vice Mayor Slavitz noted that none of the locations considered for staging really "worked" for
the community. He said that he had received many calls after the Town allowed the use of
Location 4 for the Lyford Cove staging; he also noted that the Council had said that it would
not allow that use again.
Town Council Minutes #09-2007
May 2, 2007
Page 5
Slavitz said that Mr. Smith was correct to state that allowing these areas to be used for staging
was letting the "genie out of the bottle."
Vice Mayor Slavitz said that the project would create havoc because it was being staged during
the summer months when there were a lot of people using the Multi-Use Path. He said that the
alternatives to staging would be to bring in materials every day, to talk to the City of Belvedere
(the other beneficiary of the project) to stage in their jurisdiction or at their Corporation Yard;
to look for storage at the Tiburon Corporation Yard (Director Nguyen responded that there was
no room for additional storage in that location); and to look at commercial locations for
staging. He said that the door should be left open for discussion on these locations.
Councilmember Fredericks offered what she said was "another perspective." She said that
Staffhad called other cities to discuss staging and had discovered that other municipalities had
staged in open space areas and parks in their jurisdictions when off-site staging was a problem
for large public works projects. Ms. Fredericks said that local staging would allow more
flexibility, was safer and that the control of equipment and number of trips could be better
managed. She expressed concern about the size of trucks on the Multi-Use Path and on the
Boulevard, if local staging was not utilized.
Fredericks said that she did not think that allowing staging would set a precedent and that it
was important for the Town to consider projects one by one, and to keep control of the projects
through this process. She said that the project should be done as efficiently and quickly as
possible to avoid prolonging the inconvenience.
Fredericks said the public project was necessary because it was for the betterment of the
community by improving the reliability of the water supply to the Town (and peninsula).
Councilmember Smith said that the previous use of Blackie's pasture area for staging was an
unusual circumstance and one that the Council had tried to resolve. He said that the Council
did not know how that provision had gotten into the bid documents for the Lyford Cove project
and that efforts to remove it had failed. Now, Smith said, "Blackie needs a break." He said
"enough is enough" in that location.
Smith said that the Town had no contractual obligation to provide staging for the MMWD
contractor, and that the project could be accomplished without [local] staging. However, he
said that the public might not like the consequences of increased traffic on Tiburon Boulevard
and other outcomes.
Councilmember Smith said that this was a very important project for the community; he said
that the improvements to the water supply as well as to the path itself should be considered in
the final decision.
Smith said that Location 1 would be a good staging area for the project; Location 4 would not
be considered; Location 3 was neither big enough nor practical and was too close to homes;
Town Council Minutes #09-2007
May 2, 2007
Page 6
Location 2 was preferable in that it was already a parking lot for the Sanitary District and
historically had been used for staging for material and equipment.
Mayor Gram concurred that the project was essential and would benefit the Town and provide
improvements to the Multi-Use Path. He said that the big trade-offwas to keep the path open;
if the path were closed, the project could be done in half the time. However, the Mayor said
that the Council would need to hear from "thousands of people" who use the path before it
would take such an action.
Gram also agreed that Location 2 was preferred among the options discussed.
Vice Mayor Slavitz asked whether the contractor should be given time to evaluate the location
and for the Town to evaluate other options.
Mr. Ardito said that Location 2 "works fine for us."
Councilmember Smith asked whether the offer to contribute $ 1 0,000 would still stand.
Company representatives affirmed this statement.
Councilmember Fredericks asked about the possibility of using the money to accumulate to an
account for future staging on private sites.
MOTION:
To authorize the use of Location 2 for use by MMWD contractor Ghilotti
Construction, and to accept the $10,000 donation by the company to the Town.

Property located south ofSeafirth Estates at 3820 Paradise Drive (Director of
Community Development)
Property Address: 3820 Paradise Drive
Property Owner: Sorokko
Assessor Parcel No. 039-302-01
Director of Community Development Anderson gave the report. He said that the Council
subcommittee worked on the annexation agreement, which was slightly different from previous
annexation agreements crafted by the Town, in that it would allow the applicant (Mr. Sorokko)
a guarantee of waiver of annexation by the Town for five years. The agreement would in
essence allow Mr. Sorokko time to process his application through the County of Marin and at
the same time, hook into a public sewer line should the Lands of Jansheski project go forward.
Town Council Minutes #09-2007
May 2, 2007
Page 7
Mr. Anderson submitted an updated version of the agreement which contained all of the
Exhibits and included a one-word change to the text on page 3 of the agreement, which he
described for the Council.
Councilmember Fredericks asked what would happen to Mr. Sorokko's application in the
absence of this agreement. Mr. Anderson said that if any public sewer line came within 400
feet of his property, Mr. Sorokko would be subject to certain County of Marin and LAFCO
po licies which would probably require the shift of his development applications to the Town's
jurisdiction.
Ms. Fredericks asked what LAFCO' s obligation was to honor the agreement. Mr. Anderson
said that LAFCO's policies allowed deferral of the dual annexation policy as long as there was
a reasonable end date to the agreement.
Ms. Fredericks asked why the applicant was so passionate about this issue. Mr. Anderson said
that Mr. Sorokko' s represenentative, who was present, could best answer this question.
John Roberto, land planning consultant for Mr. Sorokko, said that his client did not Want to be
forced into the [ sewer] project in a manner that would compromise his years of processing with
the County, and that he needed to have some other environmental issues addressed, as well.
Mr. Roberto said that it was anticipated that the Lands of J ansheski sewer line would likely be
installed this summer and that his client would support it as long as his interests were
protected.
Vice Mayor Slavitz said that the agreement was a good compromise that helped move both
proj ects forward.
Mayor Gram opened and closed the public hearing. There was no public comment.

To approve the Agreement, as revised, and to authorize the Town Manager to
execute it on behalf of the Town.

STAFF REPORT
To:
Mayor and Members of the Town Council
From:
Community Development Department
Subject:
Recommendation to Introduce and Hold First Reading of an
Ordinance Regarding the Tiburon Redevelopment Agency's Eminent
Domain Policy and Program
Reviewed By:
BACKGROUND
The use of eminent domain (condemnation) generated much controversy recently in response to
the Kelo v City of New London case decided by the United States Supreme Court in 2005. That
ruling essentially upheld the right of a municipality or redevelopment agency to condemn private
land for economic development purposes, and then transfer that property to another private
owner. The Court held that the general benefits a community enjoyed from economic growth
qualified that eminent domain practice as permissible "public use" under the takings clause of the
Fifth Amendment. Reaction was swift across the nation. For example, while voters in California
defeated an initiative that would have (among other things) outlawed the type of eminent domain
activity performed by New London, other measures aimed at curbing the use of eminent domain
passed in other parts of the country. The California State Legislature passed two bills addressing
the eminent domain issue across the state, both of which were signed into law by the Governor
and which require action by the Town of Tiburon. The ordinance before the Town Council
complies with requirements of both of the recently-enacted statutes.
ANALYSIS
Senate Bill 53 enacted Health & Safety Code section 33342.7 of the Community Redevelopment
Law, requiring that the Town Council adopt by ordinance a description of the Tiburon
Redevelopment Agency's program to acquire real property by eminent domain. The purpose of
this legal requirement appears to be aimed at making a redevelopment agency's eminent domain
policy and program more easily accessible and more clearly understood; such policies and
programs are frequently contained only within lengthy Redevelopment Plan documents seldom
seen by the public.
Assembly Bill 1809 enacted Health & Safety Code section 33373(c) to the Community
Redevelopment Law, requiring that the Town adopt and record a revised Statement of Institution
that includes a description of the Redevelopment Agency's program to acquire real property by
eminent domain. The purpose of this law appears to be aimed at ensuring that eminent domain
Town Council Meeting
May 16, 2007
policies will be clearly and directly disclosed in any title search on property located in a
redevelopment project area.
The statutes make no exceptions for compliance, even if a Redevelopment Agency has no power
of eminent domain, or if its eminent domain authority has expired by operation of law, as is the
latter case for the Tiburon Redevelopment Plan. Redevelopment Agency Counsel recommends
that the most prudent course of action is to comply fully with the statutes despite their total lack
of meaningful applicability to the Town's Redevelopment Plan.
ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS
Adoption of the Ordinance does not constitute a project under CEQA.
FINANCIAL IMP ACT
Staff sees no financial impact to the Town or to the Tiburon Redevelopment Agency from the
adoption and implementation of this Ordinance.
RECOMMENDA TION
Staff recommends that the Town Council:
1. Take any public comment on this ordinance.
2. Move to read the ordinance by title only, adopt the motion, and read by title only.
3. By roll call vote, pass first reading of the ordinance

EXHIBIT B
PROPERTY ACQUISITION BY EMINENT DOMAIN POLICY
The Tiburon Redevelopment Agency is authorized to acquire or obtain options to acquire real
property located within the Project Area by gift, devise, exchange, purchase, eminent domain or
any other lawful method whatsoever for the purpose of providing needed land for construction of
any of the improvements set forth in Section A of the Redevelopment Plan for the Tiburon
Redevelopment Project or for development of moderate-income housing.
Since it is in the public interest and is necessary for the elimination of those conditions requiring
redevelopment, the power of eminent domain may be employed by the Agency to acquire real
property in the Project Area.
Prior to any acquisition through eminent domain, the Agency shall adopt a resolution declaring a
need to acquire any specific property and authorizing the acquisition by such method.
The Agency is not authorized to acquire real property owned by public bodies which do not
consent to such acquisition. With the exception set forth below, the Agency is authorized,
however, to acquire property devoted to a public use, ifit is transferred to private ownership
before the Agency completes land disposition within the Project Area.
As described in Part IV.A of the Redevelopment Plan for the Tiburon Redevelopment Project,
the Town Hall and Reed School properties have been included in the Project Area as possible
sites for future Agency-assisted moderate-income housing should the use of those properties by
the Town and the Reed School District be discontinued. The Agency may not acquire these
properties from the Town or the School District without the consent of those public bodies. As a
further imitation on the Agency's land acquisition authority, the Agency may not acquire the
Reed School property by the power of eminent domain from any non-public entity to which the
School District may transfer the property in the future.

EXHIBIT C
REVISED STATEMENT OF INSTITUTION OF REDEVELOPMENT PLAN
THE PROPERTY THAT IS SUBJECT TO THIS STATEMENT IS IN A
REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA (THE "PROJECT AREA")
The Proj ect Area is subj ect to the Redevelopment Plan for the Tiburon Redevelopment Proj ect
Area (the "Redevelopment Plan"). The Project Area is situated in the County of Marin, State of
California, and is more particularly described on Exhibit "A" to the Redevelopment Plan for the
Tiburon Redevelopment Proj ect, recorded with the Marin County Recorder on December 27,
1983 as Serial No. 83-65111, of Marin County Records.
Proceedings for the redevelopment of the Project Area have been instituted under the
Redevelopment Plan and the California Community Redevelopment Law (Health and Safety
Code Section 33000 et sea.).
The Redevelopment Plan authorizes the use of eminent domain by the Redevelopment Agency
of the Town of Tiburon (the "Agency") in the Project Area as set forth on pp. 18-20 of the
Redevelopment Plan for the Tiburon Redevelopment Project, recorded with the Marin County
Recorder on December 27, 1983 as Serial No. 83-65111, of Marin County Records, as generally
described below:
PROPERTY ACQUISITION BY EMINENT DOMAIN POLICY
The Tiburon Redevelopment Agency is authorized to acquire or obtain options to acquire
real property located within the Project Area by gift, devise, exchange, purchase, eminent
domain or any other lawful method whatsoever for the purpose of providing needed land
for construction of any of the improvements set forth in Section A of the Redevelopment
Plan for the Tiburon Redevelopment Project or for development of moderate-income
housing.
Since it is in the public interest and is necessary for the elimination of those conditions
requiring redevelopment, the power of eminent domain may be employed by the Agency
to acquire real property in the Proj ect Area.
Prior to any acquisition through eminent domain, the Agency shall adopt a resolution
declaring a need to acquire any specific property and authorizing the acquisition by such
method.
The Agency is not authorized to acquire real property owned by public bodies which do
not consent to such acquisition. With the exception set forth below, the Agency is
authorized, however, to acquire property devoted to a public use, if it is transferred to
private ownership before the Agency completes land disposition within the Project Area.
As described in Part IV.A of the Redevelopment Plan for the Tiburon Redevelopment
Project, the Town Hall and Reed School properties have been included in the Project
Area as possible sites for future Agency-assisted moderate-income housing should the
use of those properties by the Town and the Reed School District be discontinued. The
Agency may not acquire these properties from the Town or the School District without
the consent of those public bodies. As a further imitation on the Agency's land
acquisition authority, the Agency may not acquire the Reed School property by the power
of eminent domain from any non-public entity to which the School District may transfer
the property in the future.
The Agency's authorization to commence any eminent domain proceedings with respect to the
Redevelopment Plan has technically expired.
