The plans prepared by I.l. Schwartz Associates specified edge grinding to accommodate the new asphalt layer that was placed, This resulted is a slight crown (high point) in the roadway which did not previously exist. As a result, stormwater runoff now collects at the low point of the street in the vicinity of 12 South ridge East. To remedy this condition, the portion of the street fronting 10, 12 & 14 South ridge East needs to be removed and new asphalt placed such that finished surface slopes toward the uphill side of the street and allows proper drainage, The Town received three contractor bids based on plans prepared by Harris & Associates, The lowest bid was from Maggiora & Ghilotli, Inc, in the amount of $13,888, The work will be funded from the contingency repairs component FY2002-03 Capital Improvement Projects budget. The grinding and overlay is expected to be completed with several day and the work will be completed by the end of December. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Town Council authorize the Town Manager to execute a contract with Maggiora & Ghilotli, Inc, in the amount of $13,888 to perform the remedial paving work, rI'-' .. , - 11/25/2002 , Town of Tiburon STAFF REPORT AGENDA ITEM 3 . . ... ... >. . . . . . . ..... . . .. .. . . . . . . . . . ... .. . .,. .

The Municipal Budget Plan for Fiscal Year 2002-03 was adopted by the Town Council on June 19,2002, The approved Legal Services budget totals $151,702, including the Town Attorney's salary, wages and benefits, Included within the Legal Services budget is $5,000 for outside legal services that are not associated with the Town's liability insurance coverage_ In late September-early October 2002 the Town was named in four separate legal actions associated with the Marin Emergency Radio Authority's (MERA) attempt to place facilities on Mt. Tiburon_ In connection with these law suits, the Town Council authorized retention of outside legal counsel to assist the Town in its defense, To date the Town has expended $125,000 in outside legal services and professional consultants. Staff estimates an additional $15,000 will be expended in professional consultants to assist the Town Attorney in her defense of this litigation, for a total of $140,000, These costs alone represent 93% of the total Legal Services budget. It is the Town's policy that expenditures for goods, services, equipment, or improvements not included nor speCified in the adopted budget plan shall require Town Council approval and amendment of the budget. Recommendation Its is recommended that the Town Council approve a budget amendment, and that a separate budgetary line item entitled "MERA Antenna Site" be established in the amount of $140,000, This budget amendment will reduce the FY 2002-03 estimated General Fund operating surplus of $428,000 to $288,000, Town of Tiburon STAFF REPORT AGENDA ITEM 5,b. . . . . . .... . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . .. . .. . .. ..

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION The newly acquired Tennant scrubber has very low ground clearance due to the squeegee skirts along the bottom of the frame, It was anticipated that the existing Public Works equipment trailer would accommodate loading/unloading of the scrubber, According to the Superintendent of Public Works, the ramp slope of the existing trailer cannot accommodate the scrubber without removal of the skirts each time it is loaded/unloaded, Accordingly, a suitable lower profile tilt deck trailer has been located in the Stockton area, The trailer cost is $5,571,35 per the attached quotation, The existing trailer will be sold as surplus_ Staff expects to recoup at least $1,000 for the existing trailer and these funds would be used to offset the new purchase RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Town Council authorize the trailer purchase and approve a budget amendment of $5,571,35 from Capital Equipment Replacement Reserve, Proceeds from sale of the existing trailer will be transferred to the Reserve fund, Attachment g"-'.

When the Town Council adopted the Fiscal Year 2002/2003 Town Budget, salary adjustments for Management, Mid-Management and certain Marin Association of Public Employees (MAPE) represented employees had not yet been determined, It is important to note that the Operating Surplus in this year's budget totals approximately $421,000, Pursuant to their MOU, all MAPE-represented employees received a 3% across-the-board salary increase on July 1, 2002 that has been reflected in the budget. Because the State has not yet determined any type of "take away" of Town revenues, the MAPE MOU triggers a September salary survey for salary adjustments to be effective January 1, 2003, In July 2002, the Town Council adopted the Management and Mid-Management resolutions that increased the top of all salary ranges by 3% but did not grant actual salary adjustments_ When the Town Council approved the Town budget, pay increases were temporarily held in abeyance until January 2003 in anticipation of any type of State take away that was threatened, While there remains the threat of a State take away of funds, the Town Council agreed to grant pay increases if, by December 2002, the State take away was less than the Operating Surplus ($421,000) or not in place at all, Since as of the writing of this report, there are no known State take aways, pay adjustments will be retroactive to July 1, 2002. In order to affect these increases, the Town Council needs to amend its budget. As a result of the Town's compensation policy, pay adjustments for Management and Mid- management range from 0% to 6%, based upon performance, Fiscal Impact The Town consciously did not budget for salary adjustments in the Management, Mid- Management and MAPE-represented groups when adopting the Fiscal Year 2002/2003 Budget because of the uncertainty surrounding the possible take away of local funding sources by the State, Since the salary survey was triggered pursuant to the MOU, salary adjustments for MAPE represented employees will become effective January 1, 2003, The MAPE salary adjustments, represent a $14,460 increase in annual compensation for the nine MAPE-represented employees, The increase in compensation includes salary, CalPERS and FICA, The total salary adjustment for the MAPE represented employees for the remainder of the 2002/2003 Fiscal Year (January 1, 2003 through June 30, 2003) will be $7,230, Town of Tiburon STAFF REPORT . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Similarly, a $22,668 budget amendment for the five Management employees and an $18,240 budget amendment for the 12 mid-management employees are necessary, However, the Town Manager's compensation adjustment is not being included in this analysis because his salary adjustment has not been determined at the time of this report, The total budget amendment to cover Management, Mid-Management and MAPE employee salary adjustments will be $48,138 plus any merit increase for the Town Manager, Recommendation It is recommended that the Town Council approve a $48,138 budget amendment to cover the cost of the salary adjustments for Management, Mid-Management and MAPE represented employees, comprised of $7,230 for the MAPE represented employees and $40,908 for the Management and Mid-Management non-represented employees, This budget amendment will be funded by the Fiscal Year 2002-03 General Fund Operating Surplus, Town of Tiburon STAFF REPORT AGENDA ITEM (0 . . . . . . . . . . ~ .. . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . .. .. . .. . . .

The Reed Union School District (RUSD) is proposing to replace its existing and undersized gymnasium at Del Mar Middle School with a new 20,000 square foot facility that will serve as a gym and community center that will benefit the students and residents of the Tiburon Peninsula, The RUSD contemplates the new facility would contain a standard-sized gym, stage, classroom space, and office space for use by the BelvederefTiburon Recreation Department (BT JRC), RUSD anticipates that the BT JRC would be responsible for managing and scheduling the use of the space after hours and on weekends, RUSD estimates the cost of the new facility at $7 million and is planning on a fund-raising program to raise approximately half of the funds needed, The district has identified funding sources for the other half which includes district capital improvement funds and a major contribution from the Marin Community Foundation, The district has also indicated a desire to have both the Town of Tiburon and City of Belvedere contribute approximately 10% of the project costs ($750,000) to help close the funding gap, Both of the communities have told the district that in these uncertain economic times for local governments that it would be unrealistic to count on any financial support, The district is asking the Town of Tiburon and the City of Belvedere to endorse the proposed project conceptually to demonstrate widespread support for the_ proposed project and to indicate to the Marin Community Foundation that both communities are part of that support group, The attached Resolution indicates the Town's conceptual support of the project without,committing any financial obligations on its behalf, Attachment RESOLUTION NO.

If you approve, please forward it as soon as possible in the enclosed envelope, but no later than December 12. 2002, or if you prefer, simply fax or e-mail us by that date, Thank you for your cooperation, The following is a summary ofthe case and major issues of significance, Case Summary On March 29,2002, the California Court of Appeal decided Schifando v. Citv of Los Angeles (2002) 97 Cal.App.4th 312, ruling that an employee filing a lawsuit based on the Fair Employment and Housing Act ("FEHA") must exhaust the employer's internal grievance procedures before filing a lawsuit. The plaintiff in Schifando had filed a DFEHcomplaint, but had not challenged his constructive termination through the City's internai procedures, Therefore, the Court held the plaintiff was barred from bringing a claim against the City because the failure to exhaust his City administrative remedies was an absolute bar to maintaining an action in court, Schifando sued the City alleging employment discrimination under FEHA based on physical disability, arising from his alleged forced resignation, While Schifando did file a complaint with the DFEH and received a right to sue letter, he did not file a demand with the Los Angeles Civil Service Commission for his reinstatement. The City charter provided that any person who claims that he was unlawfully suspended, laid off, or discharged must file a demand for reinstatement with the Civil Service Commission and a claim for compensation with the City Clerk within 90 days after the adverse employment action, The Court explained that a claimant must exhaust administrative remedies, both statutory administrative remedies (filing a claim with the DFEH) and the internal grievance procedures of public SDLl1\ADA\27IR52 LAW OFFICES OF" BEST BEST is. KRIEGER LLP November 22, 2002 Page Two ':"; , o agencies, The Court reasoned that allowing an agency the opportunity to redress the issue relieves the Courts of unnecessary burdens, is more economical, promotes a more complete factual record should litigation later be necessary and allows an agency the opportunity to use its expertise, The Court explained that, "- , ,requiring an employee to exhaust the administrative remedies available under both FEHA and the city charter ensures that the employee and the courts will reap the benefits of both of the administrative agencies' efforts, accords due respect to both agencies, and increases the likelihood that the matter will be resolved in whole or in part without court intervention," Schifando appealed the ruling ofthe Court of Appeal affirming the trial court's dismissal of his action and the Supreme Court granted review, issues of Major Significance lO California Municipalities Statewide The issues raised in this case are important to all California municipalities, Cities have an interest in resolving employee grievances through their own internal procedures before having to be subjected to costly and burdensome litigation, As the Court of Appeal recognized, courts benefit from the administrative procedures of both the DFEH and internal employer procedures which may result in the more efficient resolution of these matters, Cities set up these internal procedures, as the City of Los Angeles did, for that purpose and disregarding these procedures ignores cities; legitimate interest in resolving their own employment disputes, The Amicus Brief The primary purpose of the Amicus Briefwill beto explain to the Supreme Court tne potential impact its decision will have on the actions of municipalities throughout California, Many cities have instituted procedures to handle these types of situations, and the impact for them will be that employees will resort directly to Court without first trying to resolve the matter within the city. Schifando'sJ Appellant's Opening Brief was filed on September 9. The City of Los Angeles'/ Respondent's Briefwas filed on November 8. Appellant's Reply Briefwas filed November 18, We , . are planning to file the Amicus Brief in mid-December.

Generally, in the absence of obvious economic reasons (such as a recession), Town Staff considers the following factors in assessing whether "good cause" exists: 1, Whether there is evidence of an intent to proceed with implementation of the project (I.e" it has not been abandoned and progress is occurring), 2, Whether circumstances have changed that would no longer make the project consistent with Town policies or regulations, Staff is not aware of any change in circumstances, either for the property or its surroundings, or in Town policies or regulations that would strongly argue against granting a time extension_ Nevertheless, this is the fifth time extension requested for this project; an unprecedented number for a Precise Development Plan in the Town of Tiburon, However, this project is somewhat unique in that it involves only a single family home for an individuai, and is not a typical subdivision project. At this time last year, the applicants had submitted a Site Plan & Architectural Review - . application, which subsequent to the granling of the time extension, was found to be "incomplete", The applicants recently responded to the Town's incompleteness letter with an application that is very nearly "complete", The application been tentatively scheduled for the December 6, 2002 Design Review Board meeting, Incremental progress on the design of this unique home has occurred over the past year, albeit very slowly, Staff believes that it is time for the Town to send a strong message that additional time extensions (beyond this one) will not be forthcoming, Staff therefore recommends a time extension of six (6) months, to June 4,2003, with a recommendation to the Town Council that additional time extensions for the Precise Development Plan should not be approved, Minutes of the October 2001 Planning Commission deliberations regarding the prior time extension for this project are attached as Exhibit 5, SUBSEQUENT APPROVALS REQUIRED The Planning Commission's role on this time extension application is as a recommending body to the Town Council, which is tentatively scheduled to hear the item on November 20, 2002, The next permit required to implement the project would be a site plan and architectural review (design review) permit. Building permits would follow any design approval. A design review approval of the residence would extend the life of the Precise Development Plan concurrent with the expiration of the design review approval, which would be valid for 36 months, ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS The project is categorically exempt under section 15303 of the CEQA Guidelines, November 13, 2002 2 of 2 Town of Tiburon STAFF REPORT AGENDA ITEM . . . ... . . .. .. .. . ... . . . . . . . . . .. . ... .. ... . . . . .

The application is enclosed_ Work is ongoing by our firm to bring the development of this property as a single-family residence to a design review in the very near future, The proposed design reduces the apparent mass of the structure by aggregating varied and smaller volumes in order to be inconspicuous in the surroundings, The owner, the architects, and various consultants in computer imaging and fabrication have entered into an innovative process of design to ensure an appropriate resulting design both for the owner's requirements and for the neighboring areas which will view the residence, This process and the unique qualities of the structure have required a more extended period for design consideration than is usual. However, it is the intention of all involved to have the proposal reviewed by the Design Review committee at their meeting scheduled November 21, 2002_ In order to maintain the continuity of the current design effort we would like to ensure that the present precise development plan will still be in place after its present date of expiration, December 4, 2001, Therefore, we are submitting this request for a time extension of the Precise Development Plan. If any supplemental information is required to process or assess this application, please contact Bryan Fleenor of our office at 415-351-4077, We have the drawings that supplemented the approved Precise Development Plan, as well as a full record of the past actions taken by the Planning Commission and the Town Council of the Town ofTiburon, .

In response to questions, he agreed that Staffs recommendation regarding a 6-month extension is entirely appropriate. The public comment period was opened; no one wished to address this item and public comment period was closed. Commissioner Greenberg asked Staffs recommendation if the Design Review Board returns the application for refinement and the six months elapses without any further approvals.
