P. 415.435.7373 F. 415.435.2438 · www.ci.tiburon.ca.us DIGEST July 6, 2006 . The Honorable Lynn Duryee Marin County Superior Court Post Office Box 4988 San Rafael, CA 94913-4988 Ms. Catherine D. McKown, Foreperson Marin County Grand Jury 3501 Marin Civic Center Dr., Room 303 San Rafael, CA 94913-4988 Re: Response to Grand Jury Report May 26, 2006 Agendizing Responses to Grand Jury Reports Dear Honorable Judge Duryee and Ms. McKown: This letter explains in detail the Town of Tiburon's response to the Grand Jury Report dated May 26, 2006. The Report directs the Town of Tiburon to respond to Findings NO.1 and Recommendations Nos. 1 and 2. These findings and recommendations involve a number of agencies other than the Town of Tiburon. The Town does not have sufficient information to evaluate the Report's accuracy with respect to these other jurisdictions. Accordingly, this letter is intended only to apply to the Report's findings and recommendations insofar as they pertain to the Town of Tiburon. FINDINGS . The Town agrees with Finding NO.1. . The Grand Jury has not asked the Town to respond to any other finding. RECOMMENDATIONS . Recommendation Nos. 1 and 2 will not be implemented because they are not warranted or are not reasonable. Recommendation No. 1 The Grand Jury recommends that the Town adopt procedures that require the Town's responses to Grand Jury reports be placed on the Council's public meeting agenda. However, as the Grand Jury report (. notes, State law already requires that the Town so agendize its responses and the Town has consistently done so. The Town does not berieve that adoption of a special procedure is warranted because state laws are sufficiently clear as to the Town's responsibility in this regard and because the Town has consistently complied with those laws. Recommendation No.2 The Grand Jury recommends that the Town should place Grand Jury responses on their "public agendas" rather than on their "consent calendars." This recommendation is somewhat confusing, because the consent calendar is a part of the public agenda. The Town interprets this recommendation to suggest that the responses should be moved from the consent calendar to another location on the agenda that will force the Council to open the matter up for public comment and discussion. The Town does not believe that such a practice is warranted. The Town Council encourages public participation and will move any item from the consent calendar to the regular agenda at the request of any Council member or member of the public. However, the public has generally shown little interest in the Grand Jury responses. Accordingly, agendizing the responses on the regular agenda would be an inefficient use of Council time in most cases. * * * * * The Tiburon Town Council reviewed and approved this response on July 5, 2006. If you have further questions on this matter, please do not hesitate to call.

The excitement builds everyday as the planned dedication rises on the horizon. As such, we would like to update you on the Town's progress with its work. The Public Works Department field staff has been diligently working on the plaza restoration items appurtenant to RMD's fountain installation. Various landscaping items have been installed and the masonry brick work has started in earnest partly based on your suggestion. Based on our Deputy Director's (Mr. Tony lacopi) assessment of the Town's effort for this project, the majority of it should be completed by the end of August. If RMD needs to coordinate so that there is no re-work or conflicts, please contact Tony or me at anytime. We have all worked well together so I am confident that coordination will occur. In closing, the Town is requesting that RMD install ADA red/yellow-painted "guide boards" along the bottom of your construction fencing to help the sight-impaired from tripping over the bases. This should be installed as soon as possible. Thank you once again. If 'you have any questions or require additional infonnation, please feel free to contact me. ~ si~3re~ \ ~ ------ Nicholas T.

Ms. Milosevich confirmed that she is more than willing to consider proposals from the contractor to use her property for the storage of materials and equipment throughout the construction phase of the Lyford Cove utility undergrounding. She also confirmed that she had spoken to Maggiora & Ghilotti several months ago; that they had indicated that they had looked at her property in consideration of using it for staging, but had determined that the presence of the existing fire hydrant at that property, and the strong possibility that it might be damaged during the contractor's use, made it an impractical site for heavy equipment and materials storage. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. ~. . ! .:. 0 I T I 8 . o~ "'~Vl>: .... \Z .~ . .-." :' , .-. ro- , -!'f:t "1'''' ~ ' .0, ..../ : .'

Pursuant to Council direction at its July 5, 2006 meeting, Staff has developed a matrix of upcoming events at Blackie's Pasture and surrounding areas. These events are both public and private, and most require special event permit application to the Town. A copy of the Town's Special Events Permit Policy is attached for your reference. An existing provision of the policy allows the Town Manager to bring to the Council any permit application of 200 or more participants "for events in areas of high density" or that would have "potentially substantial impacts on the community." Examples of events that have been approved by Council action are Friday Nights on Main, the RCP Tiburon Mile, Classic Car Show, and other events. Town Staff has already begun and will continue to coordinate with the organizers of the events listed on this matrix to ensure that appropriate parking arrangements are made for permitted events in the Blackie's Pasture area in the coming months.

This policy defines special events and specifies requirements and procedures for their approval. The Council has established these requirements and procedures for special events to ensure the general safety, health, and welfare of the community and to ensure that the tempor~ operation of each special event will be compatible with the neighborhood or area in which it is located. POLICY: State and Town law regulate the use of real property in the Town. Generally, these laws establish both the structures that may be constructed on land and the activities that may be conducted thereon. The Town receives numerous requests to allow activities, and occasionally structures, on a "short term" basis. The Town has an interest in allowing certain types of conditionally allowed uses on a short term basis. Some of these types of uses may allow private individuals, businesses, or not-for- profit organizations to hold special events which may temporarily alter the character of a particular area. Permit Requirement No person shall conduct a special event on public or private property unless such person frrst obtains, and continues to maintain in full force and effect, a special event permit for such special event. C;:nprilll FVl'nt<: Pl'rmit Polirv PllOI' 1 of Q F or purposes of this policy, "special event" means a short term activity or other use of public property other than the customary use of the property. Special events may include weddings, carnivals, live music concerts, outdoor dining, street fairs, and athletic activities such as marathons, swimming events, and organized "walk-a-thons." "Special Events" shall also include any short term use of private property that has the potential to affect the neighborhood and/or otherwise requires a permit under the Municipal Code (such as an event involving amplification, live music or valet parking). Also, for purposes of this policy, the term "short term" shall mean either of the following: . Events on private property up to, but not exceeding, 12 hours . Events on public property, up to, but not exceeding 48 hours Events to be held on public or private property shall be limited in scope to activities which do not detrimentally impact the community. The Town Manager will evaluate the potential impacts of a proposed event. Factors shall include, without limitation, the following: 1. Impacts on Noise 2. Impacts on Traffic 3. Impacts on Parking 4. Impacts on the General Environment The Town Manager will not consider as a factor the content of any constitutionally protected speech at the event, unless there is a threat of immediate harm to persons or property. Events held in Town parks or open space The Town has, in the past, adopted policies governing the use by the general public of its parks and open space. A list of Town parks and open space areas and policies are incorporated herein as Exhibit "A." These policies are in effect for the regular, non "special event" use of the affected areas. Such uses do not require a special event permit under this Town Council policy. NOTE: Since the adoption of this policy in 2002, a separate, Town Council policy has been adopting governing special events in Shoreline Park. Please request a copy of this policy from Town Staff. Permit Procedure A person or persons wishing to hold a special event must file a Special Event Permit application with the Town Manager at least sixty (60) days prior to the date of the proposed event. Notwithstanding the preceding, the Town Manager may accept a special event permit application less than 60 days in advance if the Town Manager determines (in his or her sole discretion) that there is adequate time for review of the application. "nPC'illl Fv~nt.. Ppnnit Pnli"v PllOP? nfQ A Special Event Permit application shall be on a form provided by the Town (see attachment).

A list of the special event permits requested by the organizer in the previous 12 months; 3. A detailed description of the proposed special event (including the hours it is to be conducted); 4. The location of the proposed special event; 5. A precise diagram of the venue area and floor plan (if applicable) for the proposed special event; 6.

The anticipated number of workers, participants and spectators at the proposed special event; 8. A traffic control plan (including any necessary directional devices and street closures) for the proposed special event. 9.

Dear Mr. Hansen: I am the Manager for the Point Tiburon Lagoon Condominium Association and am writing to you on behalf of the Board of Directors. The Association is adjacent to The Lodge at Tiburon. On May 30th a letter was written to Stephanie Bauer, General Manager of The Lodge advising her of a noise emanating from The Lodge that was not previously known. Many homeowners have complained to me and directly to Ms. Bauer about the noise. I have discussed the problem with Dean Bloomquist, Building Official for the Town of Tiburon. He advised me that he had received noise complaints from neighbors as far away as Mar West. Additionally, the firemen at the Tiburon Fire Station have indicated that the noise is bothersome to them. Mr. Bloomquist has discussed this matter in length with Ms. Bauer. The initial investigation into the source of the noise resulted in determining the exhaust blower for the new kitchen is the problem. Ms. Bauer has advised me that pulleys were replaced on the offending equipment; the noise has since been reduced, ever so slightly . Additionally, she assured us that the equipment would be turned off when the kitchen closed each evening, to allow homeowners a restful night's sleep. When someone remembers to turn the equipment off for the night, the noise is eliminated. We were pleased that some action was taken and the problem was . acknowledged. Ms. Bauer was notified since the replacement of the pulleys that the noise continues at levels unbearable for the homeowners. LAGOON CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION Mailing Address 55 Lagoon Vista, Tiburon, Ca. 94920 Office Location 1680 C Tiburon Blvd., Tiburon, Ca. Telephone 415 435-3467 415435-8504 FAX .~ 't',r;\.l:: James Hansen Larkspur Hospitality July 6, 2006 Page 2 There have been other increased noises since the renovation of the Lodge that we have, to date, not complained about, such as: the air conditioners which can be heard from inside the condominiums, parking lot noise, laundry carts, generators, etc., the egregious noise from the kitchen exhaust blower remains unacceptable. I again discussed the problem with Ms. Bauer on Wednesday, July 5th. She advised me there are no additional plans to further address the on going noise problem. As leaving the problem unresolved is not an option for the Association, this letter is being written to you. The Association is looking to you, Mr. Hansen, to become involved and resolve this problem. If there are plans in process to remedy the noise problem, please advise us of your plans. Myself and a representative from the Board of Directors will be happy to meet with you on site so that you may hear the noise problem for yourself from the homeowner's perspective- Please contact me to schedule a date and time to meet. Your assistance and prompt response will be greatly appreciated. Best regards, POIN , TIBURON LAGOON CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION cc: Board of Directors, Point Tiburon Lagoon Condo. Assoc.

I am happy to report that we successfully completed this work and received formal building permit approval before the heavy rains late last year. Your insight as to the balance of needs in allowing us to complete this work within a grace period while the fence remained up pending final DRB approval and the issuance of a building permit demonstrated particular sensitivity and leadership. While we understand that you are no longer Mayor of Tiburon, we would be delighted to help make a difference and support your candidacy in any post you may decide to pursue in this wonderful community in the future. Please call on us if we can be of help in this regard in the future. My cell phone number is (415) 902-4948. Otherwise, have a terrific summer. Best regards, fVUcu<= Marc A.

In my view, it is only right that a letter of complaint be ultimately accompanied by both an acknowledgement and thank you when effective action by the Town has been taken and leads to a successful outcome. Therefore, this is a formal "thank you" to the Town of Tiburon, to you and the related DRB and Planning Departments that were involved in an effective application of the Town's requirements and a successful outcome which benefited the neighborhood. Weare well aware that a Stop Order was posted at 694 Hilary within a very short time following our letter of last year. It is often true that resolution takes time, and that is to be expected. However, the ultimate result, which has been a lowering of the wooden entry structure to a more appropriate height, and the addition of more aesthetically pleasing fixtures atop the structure, is an example of a well functioning Town, Building Dept, Planning Dept and DRB. Thanks again. The neighbors whom I have informally polled over the last several weeks also thank you. Sincerely, ~ Marc and Jean Gineris 696 Hilary Drive, Tiburon RECEIVED JUL - 7 2006 ()'G ~~ 1/.
