ROLL CALL Present: Chair Doyle, Vice-Chair Frymier, Boardmembers Corcoran and Teiser Absent: Boardmember Glassner Ex-Officio: Planning Manager Watrous, Associate Planner Tyler, Assistant Planner Phillips, and Minute-Taker Harper B. PUBLIC COMMENTS - None C. STAFF BRIEFING Planning Manager Watrous stated that the item for 695 Hawthorne Drive was continued to the November 1, 2007 meeting. He reminded the Board that the appeal for 9 Burrell Court has been scheduled for the November 7,2007 Council meeting. He added that Staffwill contact the Board about setting up a special meeting for the Kol Shofar SYnagogue Design Review application. D. OLD BUSINESS BEFORE THE BOARD 1. 490 RIDGE ROAD DUNPHY, NEW DWELLINGN ARIANCES The applicant was not yet present and the item was tabled until later in the meeting. 2. 78 RED HILL CIRCLE LANYADOO,DECKSNAB1ANCES The applicant is requesting Design Review approval to expand the upper level deck and add a staircase between the main level deck and the ground level, within the rear of the existing single family home located at 78 Red Hill Circle. The proposed deck expansion and additional staircase would be situated within the required side yard setbacks up to the property lines, in lieu of the required 8 foot side yard setback. In order to expand a non-conforming condition, a variance is required. The applicant has requested variances for reduced side yard setbacks. This application was frrst reviewed at the September 6, 2007 Design Review Board meeting. At that meeting, various neighboring property owners along Red Hill Circle raised concerns regarding potential privacy impacts that would be caused by the proposed expansion of the main level deck in the rear of the subject property. The Board reviewed the proposal, but continued the project to give the applicant time to rethink the deck expansion and to allow for additional dialogue between the neighbors. Several Board members expressed the need for more detail on TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #18 10/18/07 the plans as well. Since the previous meeting, the applicant has scaled back the project. The triangular expansion of the main level deck has been eliminated and a stairway accessing the ground level has been added. Joe Lanyadoo described the changes to the project design, which he felt were consistent with other additions to homes in the vicinity and would not affect his neighbors. The Chair opened the public hearing. Beverlee Kell stated that he neighbors, Ned Stephens and Jim Morton, could not be present but both have submitted letters and adamantly oppose the applicant extending beyond the side walls. She distributed drawings to the Board that showed the relationship of the surrounding properties. She said that her stairwell is 10 feet below on a lower floor and not at a view level. She felt the applicant's drawing was distorted and did not give a clear sense of how their view and privacy would be impacted. In response to questions form the Board, Mrs. Kell stated that people standing on the 20 square foot landing would be able to look into her living room windows. She said all four units were designed to have protected privacy and views. She said they have lived in their home for 15 year and have a beautiful view and she does not want to look at a stairway. She was concerned that construction would cause the hill to erode. Vice-Chair Frymier asked Mrs. Kell what could be done in her mind that would make the project approvable. Mrs. Kell requested that the applicant stay within the original parameters that everyone else respected. She said they would be doing a renovation in the future, but they would never consider infringing on their neighbor's views or privacy. Mr. Lanyadoo said he took the neighbors' concerns to heart, but he felt it was unfair for the Board not to approve his request for something smaller than what neighbors had. He noted that the Kells had enclosed their entire deck. The Chair closed the public hearing. Boardmember T eiser said that the privacy impact was due to the fact that the neighbor had built out, so now anything that that goes further out for the applicant would look back at the neighbors. He believed people do not tend to stand on the stairs and look back into other people's units and there would be little traffic going up and down the stairs. He stated that the design was not overly intrusive and thought that the applicant took the Board's and neighbors' concerns into consideration. Vice-Chair Frymier felt the applicant had made significant improvement, based upon what she read in the minutes. She stated that there are a variety of homes and designs in this area and felt that if this had been a subject to the CC&R's ofa homeowners' association, the project might be viewed differently. She noted that the Kell's staircase also projects outward. She supported the revised design and felt the applicant was asking for what was fair. Boardmember Corcoran said he was surprised with the design and thought that a compromise design to the original proposal would involve pulling the deck back. He felt that the design looks TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #18 10/18/07 2 like a high set of stairs and he did not see any other homes that have this feature. He said that he did not see as much diversity of design as Vice-Chair Frymier, but noted that there were some enclosed patios and stairways. He said there were no CC&R's to prevent changes. He agreed with Boardmember Teiser that the fact that the Kells had enclosed their deck was unfair to the other neighbors, as this extends their privacy needs another 10 feet out. He noted the receipt of a couple of letters and a neighbor who spoke in opposition and he is concerned that the project would look like a one-and-a-half story set of stairs that would cause privacy impacts. He said he could not support the request, as it does not fit the character of the complex. Boardmember Teiser asked if the steepness of the stairs complied with the Building Code. Planning Manager Watrous 'said this would be something the building official would have to determine. Chair Doyle said he believed the addition to the neighbors' home was completed prior to the current owners moving in. He felt the deck on the second floor was fine and noted that the Kells also have stairs extending beyond their walls. He said that right now, the neighbors' view is toward a wall, not the Golden Gate Bridge. He wondered if it might be better to install a circular stairway. He said that the stairs would stick out a little bit but it was only 11 feet high and it felt like it would not be a long stairway. Boardmember Teiser said he felt it was not so much an issue of aesthetics and did not feel the proposal would violate privacy. Boardmember Corcoran agreed that the privacy concern was not that big of an issue, however he believed the proposal is not the right design and not a compronnse. ACTION: It was MIS (Teiser/Frymier) that the project is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act and approving the project with the attached conditions of approvaL Vote: 3-1 (Corcoran voted no). 1. 490 RIDGE ROAD DUNPHY, NEW DWELLINGN ARIANCES 490 RIDGE ROAD LOT SIZE FLOOR AREA LOT COVERAGE BUILDING HEIGHT SIDE YARDS FRONT YARD REAR YARD V ARIANCESIEXCEPTION DANIEL AND LINDA DUNPHY EXISTING PROPOSED REQUIRED 21,660 S.F.

The subject property was previously developed with a two-story single-family residence which has been demolished. The TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #18 10/18/07 3 applicant therefore submitted an application for construction of a new residence with variances for reduced side yard setback and excess lot coverage. The application was reviewed by the Design Review Board on August 16, 2007. At that time, it was noted that several changes had been made to the previously approved plans, including an increase in the roofheight of up to 3 feet. Several neighbors with views across the property objected to the revised plans, citing intrusion into their views toward San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge. The Design Review Board shared these concerns and continued the request, with direction to the applicant to work with the neighbors and consider alternative designs for the house. A new architect was hired for the project and revised plans have been discussed with the affected neighbors. The revised plans indicate that the house would be placed in generally the same location as the previous structure on the site. Variances are no longer requested for the project as the lot coverage has been reduced and the house has also been pulled out of the northern side yard setback. The height of the house has also been reduced, particularly along the northern side of the house where the previously submitted plans indicated a 3 foot height increase. Colleen Mahoney, architect, described the changes to the project design. She said that they had met with the neighbors who appeared to support the revised plans. The Chair opened the public hearing. Richard Dwyer said he and neighbor Pam Peterson met with the architect to discuss their concerns. He appreciated the cooperation by the owner to revise the project, and thanked the Board and staff who he felt have been considerate of their concerns. He asked that the owner clean up the debris around the house as he is in the process of showing his home for rental purposes. Dan Dunphy, owner, said he has been waiting for permission to clean up the site. He stated that he has worked on the project over the last two years and it has been a long, painful and costly experience, but he was glad that the architect's talent had turned it around. The Chair closed the public hearing. Vice-Chair Frymier felt the home was gorgeous and that the applicant and owner have gone overboard in trying to appease the neighbor's concerns. Her only comment was that the house had a lot of windows, particularly along the east elevation. She said that she was not worried so much about light pollution, but that all these windows would let in a lot of light, sun and heat. Boardmember Corcoran agreed that the project would have many windows. He said that there had been a remarkable turnaround since the last review and that the owners had made considerable effort to please the neighbors. He recognized the good spirit of cooperation between the applicant and the neighbors. Vice-Chair Frymier complimented the architect on the diversity of exterior features, which help articulate the project design. TIBURON D.R.B. MINUTES #18 10/18/07 4 Boardmember T eiser complimented the architect and said her work has made the project much better. He said that this provided another example that the Design Review process works, as the applicant and architect worked with the neighbors to come up with a beautiful design. Chair Doyle agreed that it was wonderful when people work together and end up with a great design. ACTION: It was MIS (Frymier/Corcoran) that the project is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act and approving the project with attached conditions of approval.

A variance is requested for excess building height Hank Bruce, architect, noted that the neighbor fully supports the project. He briefly discussed the proposal as being a modest addition. There was no public comment. Boardmember Corcoran said he visited the site and stated that neighbor's home was on the far side from the addition and would not be impacted. Boardmember Teiser stated that he visited the next door neighbor's home and felt it was a modest addition. Boardmember Corcoran added that he could make the fmding for a variance because the addition would not impact the neighbors. TIBURON D.R.B.

The addition would include a multi-purpose room over the existing garage and a new deck and stairs to connect the new living space to the yard. A new driveway access gate is also included with the proposal as well as converting the existing sun room off of the master bedroom into living space. David Kotzebue, architect, briefly described the project. There was no public comment. Boardmember Teiser felt the design was appropriate. He said that this is an isolated location which faces the open space. He felt that the project would not impact neighbors either below or closer to Reed Ranch Road. Boardmember Corcoran stated that he frequently walks on the open space near the site and agreed that no neighbors would be impacted. Chair Doyle said he particularly liked the design of the gate.

WWW.OOF.CA.GOV October 26, 2007 RECEIVED NOV - 1 Z007 The Honorable Tom Gram, Mayor Tiburon town 1505 Tiburon Boulevard Tiburon, CA 94920 TOWN MANAGERS OFFICE TOWN OF TIBURON RE: STATE FUND OPPORTUNITY FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS WHO PARTICIPATE IN THE LUCA PROGRAM California will be undercounted in the 2010 Census. This will hurt California in the distribution of federal funds and may prevent California from gaining our fair representation in the U.S. Congress. One of the most important programs to reduce the undercount is called the Local Update of Census Addresses Program (LUCA). Under confidentiality agreements, local governments can attempt to match their own housing and group quarters addresses against records provided by the Census Bureau. The State of California expects to have a limited role in this program. Primarily, the Department of Finance's Demographic Research Unit will be able to provide some technical assistance to local governments, and will be able to match some statewide lists (such as mobile home parks, certain group quarters, and employer provided housing) against Census Bureau provided lists. The real key to the success of this program are local governments because they have access to local records and have more specific knowledge about the location of housing in their areas. Full participation by California cities and counties will help the Census Bureau identify errors in their address lists, and thereby, improve the count of California residents, possibly leading to additional representation in Congress and additional federal funding. The 2007-2008 State Budget, created a fund to encourage cities and counties to participate in the Census Bureau's Local Update of Census Addresses (LUCA) program. The Department of Finance will be administering this fund. There will be three requirements for reimbursement in this program: . Local Governments must register for the program with the Census Bureau (registration is scheduled to take place between August 2007 and December 2007). . Local Governments must submit required materials under one of the three options provided by the Census Bureau within the allocated time, which is 120 days after they receive the materials. . Grants will be paid to local governments upon receipt by the Department of Finance of a short description of expenditures for the local government's LUCA participation. If these conditions are met the State of California will pay financial incentives. The incentives are based on the assumption the locations which have experienced the most growth in housing units will require the most work to add those addresses to the Census Bureau's address list. -2- As measured by housing unit change from the April 1, 2000 to the January 1, 2007 housing unit estimate by the Demographic Research Unit your jurisdiction would be eligible for funds in the following amounts: Housina Growth of Cities and Counties* Over 20,000 housing units gained 10,000 to 19,999 5,000 to 9,999 2,500 to 4,999 1,000 to 2,499 < 1,000 (including all negative change) Incentive $75,000 $50,000 $10,000 $ 5,000 $ 2,500 $ 1,000 * County housing growth is determined by the change in the total unincorporated areas of each county. San Francisco is counted only once as a city. Estimates of housing change equal the difference in housing units as estimated by the Department of Finance for January 1, 2007 less the number of housing units counted at the time of Census 2000. Your jurisdiction is eligible to receive $1,000 In order to receive funds the local jurisdiction should submit a summary of the work done for the LUCA programs, an estimate of the number of hours spent, and an estimate of dollars spent working on the program. The summary should be mailed to: LUCA Funding Program Business, Transportation and Housing Department of Finance 915 L Street Sacramento, CA 95814 I look forward to your jurisdictions participation in the program.

The purpose of this letter is to inform you of the PCA designation process and provide your jurisdiction with an opportunity to notify us if a nomination is not supported. Local government support is the keystone of a successful regional planning program. As you may be aware, FOCUS, short for Focusing Our Vision, is a regional incentive-based development and conservation strategy for the Bay Area. FOCUS is led by the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), with the support of the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and the Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC). As part of FOCUS, jurisdictions, open space agencies, land trusts, and other land/resource groups nominated areas to be designated as Priority Conservation Areas for the region. The purpose of designating PCAs through the FOCUS Program is to accelerate protection over the near-term of key natural lands in the San Francisco Bay Area through negotiated purchases or easements with willing sellers. Regional designation promotes conservation by: . Coordinating conservation efforts within a regional framework of near-term priorities . Providing a strong platform on which to leverage public and private resources for the Bay Area . Building upon prior and existing land protection efforts and investments . Providing opportunities for forging new partnerships One example of how these near-term conservation opportunities will help inform the spending of conservation dollars in the San Francisco Bay Area is the distribution of Proposition 84 funds. The State Coastal Conservancy's San Francisco Bay Area Program will be spending $108 million from Proposition 84 over the next 4-5 years. FOCUS PCAs will inform the Conservancy, other public agencies, and private organizations of near-term ( 1-5 year) land conservation opportunities (acquisition or conservation easement) in the region. The PCA nomination deadline was August 17, 2007. Relevant to Tiburon, the following area was nominated: Area Nominatina Group Description r".f1blJ"ro.n "R.ld~ie".Cands."''''''''''''''..''' ..........r...M.a.r,.n....CoiJ.n"ty...P.a.r"k.s...'a.ncf' .'.........'.............;...................' .....,.......,...,.....,......,..., ....................,....._....._...!...,.Q.P~.D_...~.P~,9.~..,Q~.P~.r.1.~.~.D..t.....,....................!

Bort MetroCenter 101 Eighth Street Oakland, California 94607-4756 \ 't ~~: ASSOCIATION OF BAY AREA GOVERNMENTS Representing City and County Governments of the San Francisco Bay Area o ABAG Recommended PCAs must demonstrate three criteria: regional significance, level of consensus (including political will and community support), and urgency for protection. FOCUS staff will perform an initial assessment on the areas and create draft recommendations to be discussed in December by a PCA Review Team. The Review Team will encompass geographic representation of land conservation professionals and representatives from regional economic development and housing interests. Once local jurisdictions and the Review Team have provided comments on the nominated PCAs, staff will fmalize recommendations. The final recommendations will be presented to the ABAG Executive Board for adoption in early 2008. In order to properly inform our recommendations, staff welcomes comments from your jurisdiction regarding the nominated area, particularly as they relate to the nomination criteria for level of consensus. For instance, in the case of a local jurisdiction, consensus for protection of land in a nominated PCA would be demonstrated if designation of this area as a PCA would support the local government's adopted general plan. Staff has thus far made the following determination on the consensus criteria for the nominated area in your jurisdiction: 1........--..........-..........-.......-.................-.................-.........................-......-....................................-................-.......-.........................-.................
