Findings Pursuant to Health & Safety Code. 844 845 A. California Health and Safety Code Sections 17958.5, 17958.7, and 18941.5 846 require that findings be made in order to change or modify building standards found 847 in the California Building Standards Code based on local climatic, geologic, or 848 topographic conditions. Therefore, the Town of Tiburon hereby finds that these 849 changes or modifications to the Building Code as adopted herein are reasonably 850 necessary because of the following local climatic, geological and topographical 851 conditions: 852 853 1. Climatic conditions: 854 855 a. Most of the annual rainfall in Tiburon occurs during the winter, it receives no 856 measurable precipitation between May and October. During this time, temperatures 857 average between 60 and 85 degrees. These conditions eliminate most of the 858 moisture in the natural vegetation and heavily wooded hillsides. The area also 859 suffers periodic droughts that can extend the dry periods to other months of the year. 860 These conditions can be further exacerbated by occasional off-shore hot, dry, Santa- 861 Ana winds. 862 b. Most of the annual rainfall in Tiburon occurs during the winter, and some portions 863 of Tiburon are subject to tidal influences, there are times that flooding conditions 864 occur in low-lying areas. 865 c. Tiburon is situated within a densely populated major metropolitan area (the San 866 Francisco Bay Area) that generates and releases into the atmosphere significant 867 quantities of greenhouse gases, which have detrimental effects to the local climate 868 as determined by the State of California. 869 870 2. Geologic conditions: 871 872 a. Tiburon lies near several earthquake faults, including the very active San Andreas 873 Fault and the Hayward Fault, and there are significant potential hazards such as road 874 closures, fires, collapsed buildings, and isolation of residents requiring assistance. 875 876 b. Much of the Downtown commercial area is located on bay alluvial soils, which are 877 subject to liquefaction in the event of an earthquake. 878 879 3. Topographic conditions: 880 881 a. Much of Tiburon is located in steep, hilly areas; many of the residential areas are 882 heavily landscaped; and many exist adjacent to hilly open space areas which are 883 characterized by dry vegetation and have limited access. In addition, the steepness Town of Tiburon Ordinance No. 566 N. S. DRAFT Effective--/--/2016 Page 24 884 of grades located in the hills and dales results in narrow and winding roads, and 885 limited water supply. 886 887 b. The major arterial route between Tiburon and U. S. Highway 101 is Tiburon 888 Boulevard (State Highway 131). Should that highway become impassable, the only 889 alternative roadway on and off the Peninsula is Paradise Drive, a narrow, winding 890 road easily subject to closure in storms and having an extensive history of lane 891 failures due to unstable soils and poor drainage. This would result in traffic 892 congestion, severely limiting emergency access. 893 894 B.

Town Management backfilled the Superintendent's position at the Assistant Superintendent of Public Works level. Patrick Kerslake was promoted to the Assistant positon from his position as Senior Maintenance Worker. The approved FY 2017 Municipal Budget allocated the Assistant Superintendent of Public Works position for the full year. The Director of Public Works has completed the Assistant Superintendent of Public Works six-month evaluation. During the past six months Patrick Kerslake has performed at the Superintendent level and has improved processes in the shop and started new initiatives to improve performance. It is clear that Mr. Kerslake is properly functioning at the level of Superintendent of Public Works and should be promoted to that position. ANALYSIS The Assistant Superintendent of Public Work's current annual salary is $87,300. The Town's salary schedule calls for a beginning annual salary of$96,384 for the Superintendent of Public Works. It is recommended that Patrick Kerslake be promoted to the position of Superintendent of Public Works effective November 7, 2016. Should Council accept this recommendation, the additional cost for the remainder of the fiscal year would be $6,541, broken down as follows: Salary $6,056 FICA 88 Ca1PERS 397 $6,541 Staff is not recommending a budget amendment for this reclassification as the increased costs can be absorbed in the current budget.

Tiburon,CA 94920 g x lm S.r STAFF REPORT To: Mayor & Members of the Town Council From: Office of the Town Manager Subject: Consider Request from the Heritage & Arts Commission to Reduce its Me ership from Nine to Seven Persons---Resolution Reviewed by: - a BACKGROUND In July 2014, the membership of tk Heritage & Arts Commission was increased from seven to nine persons as part of a larger update of the Commission's mission, scope, and duties, as set forth in Resolution No. 31-2014 (Exhibit 1). At the time, the stated objective of increasing the membership was to provide adequate manpower to better shoulder the workload borne by the Commission. However, in the two plus years since the membership change was made, it has become apparent that more is not always better. The Commission has had difficulty with member attraction and retention, resulting in prolonged vacancies and creating problems with achieving a simple quorum to hold its regular meetings. For these reasons, a nine-member group is proving to be unsustainable and unwieldy, and the Commission is requesting a return to seven members. DISCUSSION The Commission recognizes and appreciates the reasons why the membership was increased in 2014. The Town Council had expressed interest in seeing larger projects such as the Tiburon Art Festival come to fruition, and the hope was that with more "hands", the Heritage & Arts Commission would be able to make such projects more feasible. However, after detailed exploration of this project in particular, and of other projects discussed at the October 27, 2015 Town Council/Heritage and Arts Workshop, the Commission has realized that without extensive collaboration and support by other entities (such as the Chamber of Commerce or the Landmarks Society), these larger events remain beyond the means of the Commission, regardless of the additional hands on board. Instead, the larger membership requirement has through circumstances and unintended consequences reduced the functional effectiveness of the Commission. There are currently two vacancies on the Commission, and the most recent advertisement for recruitment of members produced no applicants. In the interim, attaining a quorum for regular meetings has become an increasing challenge. A return to seven members is therefore being urgently requested by the Commission. Town Council \1cclin \o\clnhu 16. -101b RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Town Council accept the recommendation of the Heritage & Arts Commission and adopt the resolution (Exhibit 2) reducing the membership from nine to seven persons.

The property owner proposes to increase the maximum floor area permitted for this lot (Lot 34). On October 26, 2016, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 2016-18 (Exhibit 2) recommending to the Town Council that the Precise Development Plan amendment be approved. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The single-family residence on this property was originally constructed with a floor area of 3,072 square feet (29.5% floor area) and a 738 square foot garage. The property owners wish to convert undeveloped space within the existing mass and bulk of the house, beneath the garage, into a 640 square foot den, a second study, storage, and a half bathroom adjacent to the upper floor level of the house, and also add an elevator on the east side of the home. The proposed addition would increase the floor area of the house to 3,712 square feet, resulting on a floor area ratio of 35.7%. As the resulting floor area ratio would exceed the 30% maximum floor area ratio permitted for TOWN OF TIBURON PAGE 1 OF 3 Cavvn C:::ounci(N1uring November 1.6, 01{ this property, the applicant is requesting to amend the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan to increase the maximum permitted floor area ratio for this property to 35.7%. HISTORY The Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan was originally approved in 1988 by the Marin County Board of Supervisors. County Resolution No. 88-252 (Exhibit 5) currently governs this precise development plan and states that the floor area ratio for each parcel "shall be a maximum of 30%." Garage space does not count toward the floor area allowed under the precise development plan. The house size limitations in the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan were established prior to annexation into Tiburon, and prior to the Town's adoption of floor area ratio limits in all residential zones. House size limits were placed on certain precise plans in both the County and in Tiburon in the early 1980's, as a precursor to current floor area limitations established Town- wide in 1990. Current practice for the Town is that a precise development plan approval must specify floor area limits on all lots within a development. For comparison purposes, under the Town's current"default"floor area ratio standards,the subject property would be allowed a maximum floor area of 3,039 square feet for the dwelling, plus an additional 600 square feet for garage space. The floor area ratio provided under the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan would allow 3,118 square feet of floor area for this home. The 3,712 square foot total area requested by this amendment would exceed the Cypress Hollow floor area maximum by 594 square feet; and would also exceed the Tiburon default floor area maximum for a lot of this size by 673 square feet. Eight amendments to the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan have been approved to increase the maximum floor area limit for various lots since this subdivision was annexed into Tiburon in 1999. These amendments are: 70 Monterey Drive, 170 Rancho Drive, 70 Cypress Hollow Drive, 120 Rancho Drive, 50 Monterey Drive, 20 Baccharis Place, 40 Monterey Drive and 110 Rancho Drive. The review of these requests is summarized in the October 26, 2016 Planning Commission staff report (Exhibit 3). ANALYSIS The majority of the floor area requested in this application would be situated within the existing footprint of the originally constructed house with a minor addition for an elevator. The elevator would involve a minor exterior expansion to the walls of the residence and would be seen from the front and east side of the home. The elevator addition would not appear to impact the adjacent neighbors, but would increase the mass and bulk of the existing residence. In addition, the proposed elevator would not serve all three levels, but would only provide access to the garage level and upper level, and not the lower level. The proposed addition would exceed the maximum floor area currently permitted by the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan and the default Tiburon Floor area ratio for a lot of this size by 594 square feet and 673 square feet, respectively (t.A1'ti t.}I. .1'(Ist _✓__ _.._______ ____.___.._ _ __________________ 1':cy;t';%oli 3 C mv.rl-Council November lei,2016 REVIEW BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this application at its October 26, 2016 meeting.

Umominar e::# v [ , Wn '� AUG 2 2 2016 60 Monterey Drive PLANNING DIVISION The request from 60 Monterey is to convert the undeveloped area beneath the garage into a play area with storage and a half bath.They also want to construct an elevator tower from the garage to their main level for easier access as they age; this tower would be entirely inside of the existing exterior stairwell, below existing rooflines and above existing house foundations,for minimum site impact.This project would increase the floor area from 3,210 square feet to 3,850 square feet on a 10,477 square foot lot.The resulting floor area will be 36.7%of the lot size which was an increase of 6.1 percentage points and would exceed Tiburon's default floor area ratio . EXHIBIT NO. 3 o� LA � S0N ARCHITECTURE AND INTERIORS � SEP 0 8 2416 a 1 60 MONTEREY I PROJECT NARRATIVE At first glance, the location of the elevator for this project may seem a bit odd. It is in a place where the only room it gives stair-free access to is a playroom, rather than the rest of the house. There are some sound design reasons for this location. The first reason is about project scope. Our clients wanted a relatively small home remodel rather than an extensive whole-house remodel, because with a young family they want to minimize the disruption of a larger-scale project. With that in mind, we brought a soils engineer and two structural engineers to see the site, and all recommended not altering the existing foundation if at all possible because of the cost, disruption, and complexity. So our plan is designed to use the existing foundation as is, without any excavation. That means that the elevator has to sit above the foundation, which means 2-3 steps down from the elevator to the floor to accommodate the elevator pit. Since the homeowners are able to navigate stairs, this is still a usable configuration. Then there is the issue of the floorplan of the home. This house has multiple split levels, and plenty of interior stairs. This is the nature of this house and trying to provide elevator access to all levels would require large-scale work that again crosses the line into a major remodeling project. Fortunately, the interior stairs in the home are not a problem for the homeowners. It is the stairs to the street level —22 of them whether you take the interior staircase to the garage or the exterior staircase —that pose the greatest challenge, because they are often traversed while carrying a toddler plus diaper bag and stroller, maybe a trash bag, the mail, groceries, and whatever else needs to be carried. If they cannot manage it all in one trip, that's another time down then back up the stairs, while trying to keep small children corralled and on-task. The elevator, while a somewhat expensive solution, is meant to address this struggle. It opens into the playroom, where the children can be parked while loading or unloading is underway. There is a half bath at hand for urgent needs. So this is not the perfect location for an elevator. It does not give perfect access to the home. And while ideally there would be a location to install an elevator that would give accessible access to the entire home, we do not have that luxury here. Although in the future the homeowners may have to move in order to live in a truly accessible home, the elevator pushes that time further into the future, allowing them to age in place for longer than they could with just the stair access. It is often small accommodations like this that can make a house just navigable enough. Because this elevator is an addition to an already large home, we also chose its position to reduce its visual impact. We sited the elevator where the existing home bends around it and conceals it from view in most directions. For minimal site impact we chose a location that was entirely within the existing developed footprint of the home. It sits on an existing concrete landing, above existing house foundations, and does not go above the existing roof line. Even on elevations, where additions are usually emphasized, the elevator tower does not change the overall massing of the house substantially, and in ?.

LARS0N .N ARCHITECTURE AND INTERIORS the only direction where it is fully visible there are tall existing redwood trees blocking it from the sights of the nearest neighbor. As far as the town's concerns over the space's potential for conversion into an unpermitted inlaw unit, we did not add any doors between the main house and the family room to show the intent to leave the space connected to the existing home. (There is an existing door to the upper hallway which we did leave in place, but there is no door separating this added space from the existing interior access to the garage.) Because this space will be used as a family play room for two small children and their friends,we put in a half bath for their use (small children often announce their need to use the bathroom when the need is immediate rather than far enough in the future to allow a walk down the hall). We do understand the concerns the town has about increased density, and would like to offerer plan that both meets those concerns and the needs of our clients, who are not trying to sneak an unpermitted apartment or additional bedroom into the space but just want to modify their home in a way that fits the needs of their,family. We are unable to open the space more to the home because of existing shear walls, but some changes we could make to the space to show that intent are: • Reduce the half bathroom to a minimal footprint • Remove the toy storage closet and make that space open to the rest of the room • Change the existing door between the upper hallway and the garage staircase to a glass door to give a visual connection between the spaces We would prefer to take as many steps as possible towards meeting the town's concern for density and potential for abuse of space without giving up entire programmatic elements of the design.

RESOLUTION NO. 2016-18 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE TOWN OF TIBURON RECOMMENDING TO THE TOWN COUNCIL APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE CYPRESS HOLLOW PRECISE DEVELOPMENT PLAN (PD #45) FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 60 MONTEREY DRIVE ASSESSOR PARCEL NO. 034-394-06 WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the Town of Tiburon does resolve as follows: Section 1. Findings. A. The Town has received and considered an application filed by Michael and Kelly Day for an amendment to the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan to increase the maximum floor area permitted for Lot 34 of the Cypress Hollow Subdivision. The subject property is developed with existing single-family residence, and is commonly known as 60 Monterey Drive. The application consists of the following: 1. Application form, dated August 22, 2016 2. Site Plan and Floor Plans, received October 17, 2016 B. The Planning Commission held a duly-noticed public hearing on October 26, 2016, and heard and considered testimony from interested persons. C. The Planning Commission has found that the project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act per Sections 15301 and 15303 of the CEQA Guidelines. D. The Planning Commission finds, based upon application materials and analysis presented in the October 26, 2016 staff report, as well as visits to the site and testimony received from the applicant, that the project, as conditioned, is consistent with the requirements of the Tiburon Zoning Ordinance regarding precise development plan amendments and is compatible with the overall intentions of the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan. The requested increase in floor area does not substantially alter the visual mass and bulk of the existing home, and does not increase the number of bedrooms. E. The Planning Commission finds that the project, as conditioned is consistent with the goals and policies of the Tiburon General Plan. Policy LU-15 of the Land Use Element states that"remodels, tear-down/rebuilds, and new construction shall be compatible with the design, size, and scale of existing dwellings in the surrounding neighborhood." The proposed project, as conditioned, would involve construction within the existing footprint of the house in a manner similar to that approved for numerous other homes in the Cypress Hollow neighborhood. TIBURON PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO.2016-18 OCTOBER 26,2016 1 FXMIT'NO. � � 3 F. The proposed project, as conditioned, does not substantially add to the mass and bulk of the existing house nor change the structure's relationship to the contours of the property. The structure is still consistent with the surrounding neighborhood and does not result in privacy concerns for nearby residences. This project therefore is not detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare. Section 2. Approval. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission recommends approval of the amendment to the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan to the Town Council, subject to the following conditions: 1. Condition of Approval No. 3 (C) of Marin County Board of Supervisors Resolution No. 88- 252 shall be amended to read as follows: "The FAR shall be a maximum of 30%; except that greater area is permitted for the following lots: a.

The property owner proposes to increase the maximum floor area permitted for this lot (Lot 34), which is currently developed with a single-family dwelling. The single-family residence on this property was originally constructed with a floor area of 3,072 square feet (29.5% floor area) and a 738 square foot garage. The property owners wish to convert undeveloped space within the existing mass and bulk of the house, beneath the garage, into a 640 square foot den, a second study, storage, and a half bathroom adjacent to the upper floor level of the house, and also add an elevator on the east side of the home. The proposed addition would increase the floor area of the house to 3,712 square feet, resulting on a floor area ratio of 35.7%. As the resulting floor area ratio would exceed the 30%maximum floor area permitted for this property, the applicant is requesting to amend the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan to increase the maximum permitted floor area for this property to 35.7%.

PROJECT SETTING 60 Monterey Urivo a i CI�Fu The subject property is located near the end of a cul-de-sac on Monterey Drive. The property slopes downward from the street. The majority of the homes on Monterey Drive have garages on the street level with the rest of the homes at lower levels following the slope. These homes were- constructed with undeveloped crawlspace beneath the garage space. ANALYSIS Project Design The majority of the floor area requested in this application would be situated within the existing footprint of the originally constructed house with a minor addition for an elevator. The elevator would involve a minor exterior expansion to the walls of the residence and would be seen from the front and east side of the home. The elevator addition would not appear to impact the adjacent neighbors, but would increase the mass and bulk of the existing residence. In addition,the proposed elevator would not serve all three levels, but would only provide access to the garage level and upper level, and not the lower level. Staff believes that the bathroom, separate study and the elevator addition could potentially increase the intensity of use of the home and increase the potential for this separate space to be used as a separate rental unit. Except as noted above, the proposed application would be generally consistent with the findings made for approval of the prior amendments to the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan. The den,half bathroom, and study additions would be contained within the existing exterior walls of the residences. The elevator addition would not increase the height of the home, but could be seen from the street. The den, study and half bath could potentially increase the intensity of use of the house.

The project would appear to be consistent with the overall intent of the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan, with the exception of a small addition that would minimally add to the mass and bulk of the dwelling. The requested increase in floor area would not alter the visual mass and bulk, except for the minor elevator addition. Land Use Element Policy LU-15 states that "Remodels, tear-down/rebuilds, and new construction shall be compatible with the design, size, and scale of existing dwellings in the surrounding neighborhood. " The majority of the proposed construction would be within the existing footprint of the house, which would be similar to the numerous other homes in the Cypress Hollow neighborhood, with the exception of the elevator addition that would have a small "pop out" in the front and east side of the home. Staff concludes that the proposed elevator addition would be inconsistent with prior Town approvals for floor area additions in the Cypress Hollow subdivision. Staff recommends that the Commission consider limiting the approval to construction within the existing building footprint, thus eliminating the proposed elevator addition. The draft resolution reflects this elevator elimination. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Staff has preliminarily determined that the subject application is categorically exempt from the requirements of CEQA per Sections 15301 and 15303 of the CEQA Guidelines. PUBLIC COMMENT As of the date of this report, no correspondence has been received regarding the subject application. FUTURE ACTIONS REQUIRED The Planning Commission's action on this project would be in the form of a recommendation of approval to the Town Council or denial by the Commission. A Commission denial could be appealed to the Town Council, while a recommendation for approval would be automatically forwarded to the Town Council. If the precise development plan amendment is approved by the Town Council, the proposal would require Site Plan and Architectural Review approval and the necessary building permits. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission: o� 1'I�an:��:in.�C;ot;�tn.ission;'�4eet.n.n October 26,21116 1. Hold a public hearing on this application: 2. If the Commission concludes that the proposed amendment would be consistent with the intent of the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan, the Commission should consider the draft resolution (Exhibit 3) recommending approval of the amendment to the Town Council, and Exhibits: 1. Application and Supplemental Materials 2. County of Marin Resolution No. 88-252 3. Draft Resolution 4. Submitted Plan Prepared By: Kyra O'Malley,Associate Planner agc 01 6F comfortable with a 6 month review period, stating that by that time the Commission will have an idea of whether it is working or not. Commissioner Weller, Vice Chair Corcoran and Chair Williams agreed to that amendment. Vice Chair Corcoran asked if the use, if approved, could be transferred and a larger rental business could come in. Mr. Watrous stated that the new use would be subject to the conditions of approval of the adopted resolution, which includes information in the use and information management document limiting the number of rentals. He said that a larger bike rental business could not operate in a fashion which conflicts with the use permit. ACTION: It was M/S (Weller/Williams)that the Commission adopt the resolution approving the conditional use permit, as amended as follows: At the end of Condition No. 1's sentence, amend to state, "...except as modified by this resolution"; and modify Condition No. 2 to read "Outdoor display of merchandise shall be limited to the west side of the corner entrance door. No other outdoor storage of materials or signage, other than display of bicycles, is permitted. Rental transactions shall be conducted wholly within the building interior. All outdoor display and commercial activities, including bicycle demonstrations, shall be limited to areas on private property and shall not extend onto Town-owned property. Up to twenty-five (25) bicycles may be available for rental per day. The Planning Commission shall determine six (6)months after the adoption of this resolution whether any other limits shall be imposed on the bicycle display area." Motion carried 5-0. 2. 60 Monterey Drive: Consider approval to amend the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan (PD #45) to increase the maximum floor area for an existing single- family dwelling; File #PDPA2016002; Michael and Kelly Day, Owner; Ayse Sercan, Applicant; Assessor's Parcel No. 034-394-06 [KO] Associate Planner Kyra O'Malley gave the staff report, and said the project is the proposed amendment to a precise development plan(the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan) for property located at 60 Monterey Drive. The property owner proposes to increase the maximum floor area permitted for this lot. This single-family residence on this property was originally constructed with a floor area of 3,072 square feet which is 29.5% floor area. The property owners wish to convert undeveloped space beneath the garage, into a 640 square foot den, a second study, storage, and a half bathroom adjacent to the upper floor level of the house, and also add an elevator on the east side of the home. The proposed addition would increase the floor area of the house to 3,712 square feet, resulting on a floor area ratio of 35.7%. The Cypress Hollow Development Plan was originally approved in 1988 by the Marin County Board of Supervisors. She said 8 properties have been approved since 2000 to amend the precise development plan to increase the maximum allowable floor area. She then referred to page 2 of the staff report which summarizes those amendments as well as the outcome of all approvals. TIBURON PLANNING COMMISSION October 26,2016 MINUTES NO. 1068 DRAFT PAGE 7 EXHMITNO. 4 Ir- The majority of the request would be situated within the existing footprint of the originally constructed house with a minor addition for an elevator. The elevator would involve a minor exterior expansion to the walls of the residence and would be seen from the front and east side of the home. In addition, the proposed elevator would not serve all three levels, but would only provide access to the garage level and upper level. Staff believes that the bathroom, study and the elevator addition could potentially increase the intensity of use and increase the potential for this separate space to be used as a separate rental unit. Staff has reviewed this application and has found it consistent with the Tiburon General Plan and requirements of the Tiburon Zoning Ordinance, and the majority of proposed construction would be within the existing footprint of the house and would be similar to the numerous other homes approved in the Cypress Hollow neighborhood, with the exception of the elevator addition that would have a small pop-out. Staff concludes that the proposed elevator addition would be inconsistent with the Town approvals for the floor area addition within the Cypress Hollow subdivision and staff recommends that the Commission consider limiting the approval to construction within the existing building footprint,thus eliminating the proposed elevator addition. Staff recommended that the Commission hold a public hearing, and if the Commission concludes that the proposed amendment would be consistent with the intent of the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan, the Commission should consider the draft resolution as Exhibit 3 recommending approval of the amendment to the Town Council. Chair Williams said her understanding is that staff believes the elevator is not consistent with the spirit of prior amendments because it adds to the mass and bulk. Mr. Watrous stated that the issue had more to do with previous decisions made for other amendments and consistency where the Council has allowed additional floor area only within the existing building footprint and less a matter of the visual massiveness or creation of visual impacts. Commissioner Kulik asked what the current condition of the undeveloped space was. Ms. O'Malley stated that it is crawl space under the garage, which is common for the subdivision. He asked and confirmed that the conversion would be completely contained within the volume limit of the house. Commissioner Welner confirmed that there was no opposition relating to the request. Ayse Sercan, designer, showed pictures of the existing house and topography and the location of the proposed addition. She said that they consulted with engineers to find the best location for the elevator due to the existing house foundations and slope. She said that they were unable to move the elevator further into the house because it would be disruptive to the foundation, and they did not want to dig out a hole in the hillside to put an elevator in to serve all three floors. She said that the elevator would enable the homeowners to bring groceries and items up and down and not have to travel up and down 22 steps to the street level. TIBURON PLANNING COMMISSION October 26,2016 MINUTES NO. 1068 DRAFT d16V Michael Day, owner, stated they have two children and it would be nice to have a large area for the kids to play and a study so they can do their homework and let the main floor look like an adult house. Kelly Day, owner, said that they were very concerned about aging out of the house. She said that as they and their friends get older, they may need to live up on the main floor but will still need to get up and down the stairs. Ms. Sercan added that their firm does a lot of work with aging in place and accessible housing, and their goal was to enable the homeowners to remain in their house and it seemed like a small request to make the home more accessible. Mr. Day explained that the stairs within the house to the bottom floor to the bedroom are not very steep and easy to travel, but the stairs up from the main floor to the garage are very steep. Ms. Sercan stated that the proposed rooms would not have legal egress windows that would enable them to be used as a bedroom, so she felt that it would be short-sighted to not allow the elevator. Chair Williams opened the public hearing. There were no speakers and she closed the public hearing. Commissioner Welner said that for a precise plan that was approved so long ago he was swayed by to whether there is opposition. He said that it spoke volumes that there were no neighbors or letters submitted opposing the request. He felt that this would be a very minor change and he was inclined to approve the request, including the elevator. Vice Chair Corcoran agreed and observed that only one of the other amendments to the precise plan was approved in the last 10 years and the plan was approved over 25 years ago. He said that the Commission will be faced with more of these requests and wants residents to be able to age in place and stay in their homes in communities they love. He supported the request as submitted. Bureaucrats Commissioner Kulik echoed Commissioner Welner's comments and said that the Commission has been cautious about approving precise development amendments in the past if there was significant push-back from neighbors. He said that the lack of opposition here was noteworthy. He said that there were 8 different conversions of similar space nearby and he felt that this request was consistent with the precedent of previous approvals, even if the approved FAR would be slightly higher than the previous maximum approved. He said that he understood staff's concerns about the elevator, but since this would have no visual impact, he supported approval. Commissioner Weller said that he completely agreed with his fellow Commissioners and supported the project. Chair Williams concurred and said that she could make the findings to approve the elevator, which would be contained within the existing structure of the home and would not substantially increase the bulk of the house and would be consistent with the overall development. TIBURON PLANNING COMMISSION October 26,2016 MINUTES NO. 1068 DRAFT e Commissioner Kulik asked if there was anything in the original Cypress Hollow plan that forbids a second unit. Mr. Watrous said that there was not. He noted that unpermitted second units occur less often in Tiburon than in other jurisdictions and he believed that the applicants properly addressed these concerns. Ms. O'Malley added that the Town Council had raised concerns about the intensity of use when looking at other Cypress Hollow amendments and this was why staff raised the concern regarding a second unit. ACTION: M/S (Williams/Corcoran)to find that proposed amendment is consistent with the intent of the Cypress Hollow Precise Development Plan; adopt the draft resolution as amended to recommend approval of the project as submitted to the Town Council. Motion carried 5-0. ACTION ITEMS 1.

The Architectural Development Standards contained as Exhibit "F" in the application text for Cypress Hollow Subdivision (Exhibit "B" of the Cypress Hollow Master Plan) is hereby incorporated into this Development Plan and Vesting Tentative Map approval, with the f ollowing changes: A. Additional Development Standards for Lot 10 through 23 21 1) Building Height. The maximum allowable building height for houses shall be 26 ft. above natural grade for Lots$ 10 to 17 and 28 ft. for Lots 18 to 21. Natural grade shall mean the final rough grade after the subdivision improvements are in place. New "fill" slopes resulting from street improvements shall be graded at a three to one slope (horizontal to vertical). In addition, no portion of a house structure shall be higher than 16 ft. above the top-of-curb elevation at the front { of the lot for Lots 10 to 17 and 18 ft. for Lots 18 to 21. These are the maximum heights to be permitted, and in evaluating the individual house designs through the Design Review process, the height should be less than the maximum j wherever practical to the extent consistent with other objectives such as minimizing grading, maintaining architectural interest and variety, and allowing a house size similar to others within the subdivision. House designs should incorporate features that facilitate reducing overall height. Features to be I considered include, but are not limited to, stepped floor plans and detached garages. 2) Mass and Bulk of Structures. Where possible, cantilevered floors, decks and chimneys shall be utilized to reduce the skirt heights of walls on the downhill side of the house. In addition, walls on the downhill (rear) side of the structure shall be "undulate(T" to provide "relief" and architectural interest to the house when viewed from below. Long uninterrupted rear walls shall be prohibited. Major roof planes of the house shall generally be parallel to the natural slope of the lot. Architectural elements such as bay windows, roof dormers, greenhouse windows, and chimneys are encouraged to add architectural variety to house structures. At the rear of the house exterior decks shall not extend beyond the rear building envelope line. In addition, all second floor exterior walls (except chimney walls) shall be a minimum of five feet (5') from the rear development EXHIBIT NO. -3- envelope line. The maximum finish floor elevation of the second floor at the rear (east) wall shall not be greater than shown below for the respective lots above finished grade: a) Fourteen feet (14') for Lots 10, 11, 14, 15 and 16; b) Sixteen feet (16') for Lots 12, 13, and 17; and c) Eighteen feet (181) for Lots 18, 19, 20, and 21. B. Building envelopes. The house structure, garage and all accessory buildings or structures shall be located entirely within the "building or development envelope" area defined for each lot, except that roof overhangs, chimneys, exterior balconies or similar architectural appendages may project two feet beyond the building envelope line. This shall not include any enclosed portion of the house structure. The building envelopes are approved as shown on Exhibit "E" "V" to the Master Plan with the following exception: r 1) For Lot 45 44, the development envelope setback from the northerly property line shall be increased to 30 feet. However, retaining walls may be placed outside the development envelope, to within 20 feet of the northerly property boundary. C. Floor Area Ratio: The FAR shall be a maximum of 30% . D. Maximum Lot Coverage The maximum lot coverage requirements are deleted. E. The building envelopes shall be shown on the final map, or recorded on the property through a separate instrument. 4. All utilities within the subdivision and extended to the subdivision shall be underground. 5. Prior to recording the Final Map, the applicant shall submit proposed driveway ' maintenance agreements for Lots 22, 23, 24, and for lots 41 40 through 46 44.

A minimum of 4 off-street parking spaces shall be provided for Lots 22 to 24 and 40 to 45 44. While independently accessible spaces are preferred, two of the parking spaces may be provided as tandem spaces where independently accessible spaces cannot be provided without substantially constraining the house location and design or causing extensive grading. 7. The change in paving and entrance design at Cypress Hollow Drive and Bay Vista Road as shown on Sheet 8 of Exhibit "A" the originally submitted Landscape Plan is expressly prohibited. 8. All conditions of Master Plan, Development Plan and Tentative Map approval shall be complied with prior to recordation of the final map, or, where appropriate, the required U-11BIT NO. � improvements shall be financially secured through posting with the County prior to recordation a Certificate of Deposit, Letter of Credit, or other County approved instrument of credit. 9. All conditions of Master Plan approval are incorporated by reference as conditions of Development Plan/Tentative Map approval. 10. Design Review shall be required on all single family lots within the subdivision.(lcc 63 tit,45)� 11. Final landscape and irrigation plans shall be approved by the Planning Director prior to recordation of the Final Map. 12. The final map shall contain notes or shall be recorded with documents that clearly set out the maintenance obligations of individual lot owners with respect to the drainage way along the westerly property boundary and the landscaping within the non-development private open space easements. This includes Lots 21, 29, 40, 41, 42, 43, and 44 and Parcel L. j 13.

Prior to the submission of improvement plans and recordation of the Final Map, the applicant shall complete hydrologic/hydraulic analysis of the relevant watershed which defines any existing and/or expected drainage deficiencies and identifies potential mitigation measures shall be submitted. 15. The improvement plans shall include a detailed grading and drainage plan that incorporates the following design guidelines as found appropriate by the applicant's { professional engineers and concurred in by County staff: A. All cut and fill slopes should be inclined no greater than 2:1 (horizontal to vertical) unless specifically approved by a qualified soil engineer. B. During site grading, no grading, vehicle parking or storage of construction materials shall be allowed under the drip line of trees to be retained. C. Slopes shall be graded such that a naturally contoured appearance results. Graded slopes shall be rounded and final graded into the existing terrain. Bench or cut pad building sites shall be discouraged. Bench cuts will only be allowed when they provide substantial design benefit such as reducing house height on slopes. Any bench cutting_ shall blend into the existing contours and shall not be permitted simply to provide outdoor living areas. It is the intent of this condition to require structures to be custom designed to fit the topography and minimize grading, house massing and height. D. Discharge project runoff into small drainages at frequent intervals to avoid buildup of large, potentially erosive flows. E. Reduce disturbed areas to the minimum necessary for construction. F. Keep storm water runoff velocities low. G. Keep slope lengths and gradients to a minimum. H. Design developed area to increase the "time of concentration" (time for water to pass over the site) through grading, detention areas, energy dissipators and moderate flow velocities. 16. The applicant shall be responsible to undertake the following drainage improvements. A. Pursuant to the hydrologic/hydraulic analysis and the applicable recommendations of the geotechnical consultant, channel stabilization measures shall be performed for the unnamed drainage way along the westerly side of the property.

All grading and site preparation shall be performed under the direct observation of a qualified soils engineer. Provide slope reconstruction as determined appropriate using terraced excavation covered by compacted fill, buttressed and subdrained. 18. Immediately after grading, each building site shall be checked for expansive soils. Where expansive soils are found, they shall be replaced with non-expansive engineered fill prior to building construction. Alternative solutions to correcting expansive soil conditions may be recommended by the applicant's professional engineers and may be substituted subject to approval by Department of Public Works. 19. For development on each individual lot, additional subsurface investigations and engineering analysis shall be -performed to develop recommendations regarding site grad.1rg and other items related to building foundations and site sped is drainage as project plans for housing construction are developed. 20. The slide area located in the northerly portion of Lot 29 shall be reviewed by a geotechnic consultant to determine if any additional measures are necessary to insure protection of the surrounding area from possible slide reactivation. Any required measures shall be implemented through improvement plan construction. 21. The Vesting Tentative Map shall be revised to shows a non-access easement for the following areas: A. the south easterly lot lines of lots 31 to 40 39 so that access to these lots is from Monterey Drive only; B. the northerly lot line of Parcel K; C. the easterly lot line of Lots 23 and 30 22 and 23 along Rancho Drive; D. the entire north westerly side of Monterey Drive (includes lot lines in Lots 40, 41, 42, 43; and 45 44, and Parcel L) except for approximately 100 feet of frontage for Lot 44 immediately northerly of the shared driveway access; E. the rear property lines of Lots 1-7 and 9 where these lots abut the remainder Parcel B. i 22.

The exact location and extent of striping shall be approved by the County Traffic Engineer. E. The paving section of Bay Vista Drive shall be widened to 30 feet from where it currently narrows and northerly past the new intersection of Cypress Hollow Drive. The extent of the widening shall be determined by the County Traffic Engineer, but shall be generally limited to the subdivision boundary along Bay Vista Drive. These traffic improvements shall be shown on the improvement plans and shall be subject to final review and approval by DPW prior to recordation of the Final Map. 23. Prior to or in conjunction with the improvement plans for the subdivision, the applicant shall prepare detailed erosion and sedimentation control plans for the construction period and permanent erosion and sedimentation control plans for the period after construction for review and approval by the County and Flood Control District. The construction erosion and sedimentation control plans shall include the following design guidelines as found appropriate by the applicant's professional engineers and concurred in by County staff: A. Avoid open face cuts and extensive clearing/grading operations during the critical wet weather period of the year (commonly mid-October through mid-March). B. Keep runoff away from disturbed areas during construction. C. Stabilize "disturbed areas" as quickly as possible, either by vegetative or mechanical methods. D.
