I believe this is a prudent use of department resources. I bring it to your attention because it was not specifically called out as an expenditure during the budget process. Absent direction from the Town Council to the contrary it is my intention to approve this expenditure. We will strive to minimize the expense through comparative purchasing and grant reimbursements where possible. Thank you. TIBURON POLICE DEPARTMENT 1155 Tiburon Boulevard Tiburon, CA 94920 MEMORANDUM Date: To: From: Subject: May 10, 2007 Peggy Curran, Town Manager Michael J. Cronin, Chief of Police Budget Expenditure Summary I have completed a brief inventory of the Police Department and made an assessment of equipment and training needs. The highest priority items are those needed to meet current mission requirements and mitigate risk to personnel. I am seeking permission to procure those items from budgeted but unexpended funds in the Police budget. Lower priority items may be addressed through the budget process in future years. Background Tiburon Police Department, and all other departments in Marin County, has adopted a standardized response to something called the "Active Shooter Scenario". This scenario anticipates a "Columbine" type event either in a school or other location wherein the perpetrator is actively seeking and shooting victims indiscriminately. This is a high risk, low probability scenario that continues to absorb significant training and equipment resources. In such an event mutual aid will be a key element. TPD is committed by our mutual aid agreement to assisting neighboring communities just as they are committed to assisting us. However, we only partially equipped to execute our responsibilities. Weare deficient in ballistic (bullet resistant) helmets and the specialized ballistic vests appropriate for the task. I would like to procure this equipment immediately in order that TPD can meet its obligations in the safest manner possible. This request is somewhat time sensitive. Training in this scenario will be conducted starting in June for all Marin agencies. The value of that training will be substantially enhanced if officers are able to train with the equipment they will use in an actual event. Fiscal Impact Our immediate needs can be met for a total expenditure of$13,000.00. A federal grant program will reimburse $5,000.00 within 60 days for ballistic vests. We may be able to further reduce the expenditure by another $2,500.00 if we can procure the helmets directly from surplus DaD stocks but that is uncertain of that at this time. I should know within two weeks and prior to making this purchase.

As the Circ Supervisor he is responsible for the largest number of staff. The department handles over 200,000 checked out items per year. In addition to checking out and checking in books, DVD's, CD's, books on tape and magazines, the staff adds new materials to the system, issues library cards, shelves books, reads the shelves to ensure these items are shelved accurately, and oversees reservations for the Group Study Room. They are also involved in special projects such as barcoding, weeding the collection, and most recently, reorganizing the collection when they reversed the fiction and non-fiction sections. Of the 216,000 items that were checked out in 2006, 560/0 were books, 220/0 DVD's and 100/0 music CD's. With the addition of a self-check machine last year the circulation staff is able to stream-line their tasks. 9. Building Program Planning Update Kathryn Page of Page + Moris attended the meeting in order to present the final draft of the Building Program for the library expansion. She described it as a recipe book for the architect and stated that there is enough flexibility in the specificity that this document should be helpful through every step of the process. The program calls for a 30,999 square foot building which includes the current building. It is estimated that 600/0 of the space would be on the first floor and 400/0 on the second floor. The various departments are described in detail with considerable focus on spatial relationships/adjacencies. Approximately 250/0 of the square footage will be dedicated to hallways, storage, restrooms, etc. Ms. Page stated that she would welcome any corrections to the text. A motion to adopt the Building Program written by Page + Moris, made by Trustee Fong and seconded by Trustee Falk passed unanimously. Chair Otter proposed a resolution to commend and thank Ms. Page for the work on the Building Program. A poll of each Trustee resulted in unanimous agreement with the resolution.

DIGEST Belvedere-Tiburon Joint Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes for Special Meeting Held April 16, 2007 Call to Order, 7:00 pm Committee Members: Jerry Riessen Jennifer Muller Bob McCaskill Tara Sullivan Priscilla Tripp Denise Bauer Merrill Boyce, RUSD Chair Vice-Chair Present Present Present Absent Present Present Present Staff Members Present: Bruce Mulder, Sherry Burchert I. Public comment - No members of the public were present for comment. II. Minutes: - The minutes for the regular meeting held March 19,2007 approved. Motion - Tripp: Second - Muller: Vote 5-0. III. Finance Reports: Mulder reviewed the March Cash Reports. He explained that the March report in the packet was a preliminary report. Mulder reviewed summer camp registration to date. He stated that Camp Miwok registration is significantly down from previous years and mentioned canceling the first six weeks of camp and offering Miwok in August. Traditionally, August has been well attended at Camp Miwok. The Summer Youth revenue is also down, however this may be due to the fact that we are not offering as many specialty camps as we were last summer. Angel Island Camp and Paradise Park Camp registration appear to be on track. Mulder suggested raising the fees for Academy programs in the falL IV. Information and Discussion Items 1. Personnel Update. Mulder officially announces his resignation to the committee. He presented a copy of his resignation later effective April 26, 2007. Riessen commented on giving some thought to a new department model and the reorganization of the staff structure of Belvedere- Tiburon Recreation Department. 2. Summer Camp Enrollment Update. Mulder referred to the Summer Camp Registration Analysis, reiterating that Camp Miwok enrollment was down from previous years even though we budgeted more conservatively than last year. Mulder reviewed the marketing efforts of the staff including phone calls to last years participants, pre-school outreach, summer camp guide distribution, flyers on RUSD website, etc. Muller speculated that the drop in Miwok enrollment might be due to location. Mulder stated the break-even point is approximately eight participants per session and concluded that there didn't appear to be a clear reason why enrollment was down at Miwok this summer other than many pre-schools now offer year-round schooling. 3. Workers Compensation Update: Mulder presented an update of workers compensation with PARDEC. He explained that on February 23, at the PARDEC Board of Directors meeting that BTJR was approved to join this insurance pooL Mulder explained that the process is on track to obtain coverage for July 1,2007. Our representative at PARDEC recommended that we submit a letter to their board requesting an exception to the $10,000.00 minimum premium because our payroll does not produce sufficient premium to meet this minimum. ".) .~ 4. Merchant Account. Mulder followed up with Tamalpais Bank to inquire about a better rate. The representative at Tamalpais stated that they could save our department approximately $2,000.00 annually if we switched from Bank of America. Mulder and Thor met with an account representative at Bank of America and concluded that they were willing to negotiate our rate given the savings at Tamalpais Bank. Tripp concluded, we should pursue this option first and not change banks if we don't have to given all that is involved. 5. BTJRC involvement in programs / operations: Muller and Riessen reported on their visits to the kindergarten Club and Academy Club programs at Reed School. Riessen visited the program on April 16 & 19. He was impressed with the Children's Technology Workshop, which takes place after-school on Monday afternoons. In addition, he stated that Jaime Hoffman was very organized and professional. He reiterated the importance of these visits to the committee. Muller concurred that the visits were invaluable and reflected that attendance was a little low the day of her visit due to the upcoming spring vacation. 6. Tennis Courts Update. Mulder had a follow-up meeting with Peggy Curran to inquire on the status of our request that the town pay for the resurfacing of the Point Tiburon courts. Peggy indicated that the town council will "probably" approve the request, but expressed her concerns that this may be a symptom of a larger issue, referring to the department's budget deficit. Mulder reported that the Point Tiburon courts were built by the town on landfill and the cracks in the courts are occurring because of the "sinking" effect. Mulder also stated that while the courts were profitable, the maintenance costs are increasing and the town should be financially responsible for the resurfacing. IV. Action Items: 1. Operating in the absence of a director. Burchert proposes the two supervisors (Sherry Burchert and Dana Thor) step in as co-director's in the absence of a director for a period of up to six-months. Burchert reviews the division of director responsibilities between the two supervisors. Burchert distributes spreadsheets that include an annual salary increase for all staff and compensation for Burchert and Thor in the interim as co-directors and the impact on the FY 2007-08 budget. Riessen recommends abstaining from hiring a director immediately and use this time to figure out the best model for the department. The proposed salary adjustments presented by Burchert will be reviewed by the finance sub-committee and a recommendation will be made to the committee at a closed session meeting scheduled for April 24, 2007. McCaskill suggests that the town and city manager be invited to the closed session for discussion about the future of the department. VI.

RECEIVED MAY 1 1 2007 TOWN MANAGERS OFFICE TOWN OF TlBURON May 7, 2007 TO: CitylTown Managers of Marin County County Administrator, County of Marin RE: FY2007-08 CitylTown/County CMA Fees Dear Colleagues: The Transportation Authority of Marin (TAM) has started its FY2007 -08 budget proc~ss. TAM has calculated the FY2007 -08 pro rata share of your agency's contribution to TAM for the Congestion Management Agency services provided. Calculation of the pro rata share is based on a 500/0 population I 500/0 public road miles maintained formula. The formula TAM uses for assigning the Congestion Management Agency fees is the same formula utilized to apportion Local Infrastructure Funds under the Measure A Transportation Sales Tax in Marin. As that formula is due to be updated with any new road mileage and population share information in early 2008, the fee share will be adjusted at that time. Note any adjustments in future years are likely to be minor. The table on the second page shows the fees due for FY2007 -08. Please contact Li Zhang, TAM's Finance Manager at 415-507-2596 if you have any questions. This information will be presented at the Marin County City Manager's Association meeting in May 2007.
