TIBURON PENINSULA RECYCLING COMMITTEE
I/e~ # 2-
February 3, 1999
RE: Sunsettine: of the Recvcline: Committee
Dear Councilmembers of the City of Belvedere and the Town of Tiburon
This is in response to the attached letter sent by Diane Crane, Town Clerk for Tiburon, asking the
Committee to recommend whether it should continue during the year 1999 or longer.
It is the unanimous decision of the Recycling Committee that it need not function as it has for the
past years. We think the Committee has fulfilled its usefulness as an ongoing committee and that
a new format could better serve our communities. We recommend:
. that the Recycling Committee be disbanded and continue to serve only as an ad hoc
committee when special needs arise;.
. that Romney Fennell, member of the Committee and a staffmember of the Town ofTiburon,
be designated the Recycling Coordinator for Tiburon. Along with recycling, these duties now
include the collection of discarded batteries and styrofoam for all peninsula residents.
. tha~ as agreed by the committee, we recommend that the job of Recycling Coordinator and
duties thereof be added to Romney's job description and that appropriate compensation be
authorized. We note in the past she has performed these tasks on her own time and on a
volunteer basis;
. and that Romney coordinate recycling activities with a staff member from Belvedere who
shall be so authorized by that city.
All of us have appreciated the opportunity to serve on the Recycling Committee and we enclose a
list of committee accomplishments over the past three years. The major unfinished task ahead
involves working out the recycling problems in the downtown area of a~lvedere and Tiburon.
The committee has had limited success here because of the issues involved. Planning decisions
and council actions may be necessary if measures, that could enhance recycling in this complex,
crowded downtown area where space is at a premium, are to be achieved. Such ~ctions of course
are beyond the Recycling Committee's charge or purview. We urge councibnembers to consider
how best to solve the recycling problems in this area.
All of us, too, wish to thank Rick Powell of the Mill Valley Refuse Service for his support for the
committee. Weare ready to pitch in should a specific project again require our services.

Polly Smith, Chair
Tiburon Peninsula Recycling Committee
10 Barner Lane
Tiburon, Ca 94920
SUBJECT: TmURON RECYCLING COMMITTEE TERM
Dear Polly:
The Tiburon Recycling Committee was appointed in February 1996 to assist the
communities of the Tiburon Peninsula in their efforts to meet state-mandated recycling
goals, which were to go into effect in early 1999.
It was anticipated at that time that your committee would have completed its work and
would "sunset" when the mandates became effective.
Apparently, there have now been extensions to the deadlines for these state-mandated
goals, and as a result, the Town Council wishes to know whether the Tiburon Recycling
Committee would like to extend its own term date past March of 1999.
Would you please poll your members and let me know your thoughts on this subject.
The Town Council has asked me to agendize this matter for consideration at a future
meeting in January or February. . , \.
Thanks for your cooperation in this matter.
Very truly Y rs,
A ;1/

Town Council
For Bob Kleinert for
February 1999 TOWN COUNCIL MEETING
Report to Town Council re: Tiburon Recycling Committee efforts over last year and goals for
1999.
Last year the Tiburon Peninsula Recycling Committee presented a resolution to the Town Council
to commemorate "America Recycles Day Nov. 15, and to adopt policies regarding purchasing,
source reduction, waste prevention, & recycling.
Some of the highlights of the year:
In excess of95% of Town Hall paper & packaging material are recycled in-J1ouse
Successfully implemented preference program for using office products that contain recycled,
reusable, or recyclable materials, for example we use recycled paper in our copy machines, toilet
paper & paper towels in public restrooms are recycled content products.
Very successful response from community re: Town Hall has been drop-off collection site for
used batteries & Styrofoam peanuts (items which must be kept out of landfill). The batteries are
delivered to a hazardous waste facility, the Styrofoam goes to a recycling facility.
Very successful "Reduce Junk Mail" campaign within Town Hall/Recreation Department: Over
the last year 640 notices have been sent out requesting our name:~ be removed~from incoming
mailing lists - catalogs no longer wanted/unsolicited junk mail.. 1999 Goal:' pare down outgoing
mailing lists. .'
Schools - Along with Mill Valley Refuse our committee distributed educational outreach materials
to Tiburon school children to commemorate America Recycles Day - poster artwork from Bel
Aire students were displayed at both Tiburon Town Hall and Belvedere City Hall, article in Ark,
America Recycles Day sign displayed at Blackie's Pasture
Public works successfully eliminated the co-mingling of green waste/ refuse at corp yard by
setting up separate collection boxes
Implemented "mini-can" program for Mill Valley Refuse customers who reduce their trash
enough through their recycling efforts to qualify for a smaller can/service fee.
Public recycling bins are now located downtown and at Blackie's pasture, (Suggest that signage
placed on near-by public refuse containers informing public to bring their recyclables to these
bins)
The ARK Newspaper very graciously provided space for Recycling Tips for our educational
outreach program, see samples attached
Educational outreach: letters went out to all homeowner associations.
Downtown efforts: Several meetings with Chamber of Commerce, major challenge. Recommend
working through Building & Planning Departments to urge/require businesses (when they
remodel) to designate adequate refuse & recycling space. Inadequate storage space is primary
problem for businesses falling short in recycling efforts - urge cooperation with others / purchase
compactors to reduce garbage so as to allow more space dedicated for storing/sorting
recyclables. Provide incentives & recognition to encourage "community" effort
Our Committee coordinated recycling services at Moseley Parade/picnic, Ayala Day Festivities,
New Town Hall Celebration, rode in Moseley parade on antique garbage truck driven by Rick
Powell
Offered composting workshop to community
Worked with Mill Valley Refuse to update their customer recycphg guide. \i'

A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF TIBURON IN
COMMEMORATION OF THE FIRST ANNUAL "AMERICA RECYCLES DAY"
NOVEMBER 15, 1997, AND ESTABLISHING ADDITIONAL POLICIES
REGARDING PURCHASING, SOURCE REDUCTION, WASTE PREVENTION,
AND RECYCLING
WHEREAS, the volume of municipal solid waste disposed of at Marin's landfills has not yet met
the diversion goal of the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (50% by the year
2000); and
WHEREAS, the Town of Tiburon' s participation in and promotion of source reduction, waste
prevention and recycling programs can serve as a model to the community for reducing the
volume of material entering the waste stream from the Tiburon Peninsula, thereby diverting
refuse from landfills and reducing environmental impact and avoiding penalties; and
WHEREAS, many of the materials that enter the waste stream can be recycled, reused, or
incorporated into the manufacture of new products; and
WHEREAS, the Town recognizes that for recycling programs to be effective, markets must be
developed for products that incorporate postconsumer materials in their manufacture, are
reusable, or are designated to be recycled; and
WHEREAS, California State Law requires that local agencies buy recycled products if quality
and price are equal to nonrecycled products, and allows local agencies to adopt purchasing
preferences for recycled products;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Town Council that the Town of
Tiburon adopts the following policies:
1. Prior to purchase of materials and supplies the Town shall take reasonable steps to
determine whether the products being purchased contain recycled, reusable, or recyclable
materials.
2. Preference shall be given in the purchasing of materials and supplies to products
containing recycled, reusable, or recyclable materials, unless it can be demonstrated to the
Town's satisfaction that these recycled products would not achieve the applicable
performance standard.
3. A price preference, not to exceed fifteen (15) percent, may be given to recycled, reusable,
and recyclable products. The preference percentage shall be based on the lowest bid or
price quoted by the supplier offering non-recycled products.

local curbside recycling program.
9. The Town shall implement a waste prevention program within Town Hall, the Police
Station, and the Public Works Department - serving both as a model for the community
and reducing operating costs, e.g: discouraging avoidable or excess copying,
encouraging two sided copying, pruning incoming and outgoing mailing lists, replacing
disposable items with reusable materials, repairing rather than discarding, faxing and e-
mailing whenever possible.
10. The Town shall provide collection receptacles for recyclables in the public areas
downtown and in its public parks and recreation areas. Current receptacles can be
converted with steel liners that separate recyclables from trash or "recycle only"
containers installed. This program will require further study in regards location and pick-
up, with the goal to implement by November 1998.
11. The Town shall require that for all Special Event Permits, large & small, the group or
sponsor of the event must provide a plan for recycling. The event sponsor must provide
collection containers for recyclables, or arrange with Mill Valley Refuse to provide
temporary containers & pick -up
12. The Town shall establish a policy within its Public Works Department whereby all
landscape green waste is collected and stored separately from refuse, so that it can be
diverted from landfill to the "green can" compost program. This policy will require
further study in regards selecting a location for collection of green waste, with the goal to
implement by November 1998
13. The Town will appoint an In-House Recycling Coordinator and an informal In-House
Waste Prevention Committee to assess, establish and monitor waste prevention efforts,
develop solutions, explore streamlining (paper trail) efforts in regards to review and
approval processes, educate co-workers in waste prevention techniques, provide
incentives, and encourage the behavioral changes and cooperation needed to prevent
waste and increase recycling.

C. PUBLIC OUESTIONS AND COMMENTS
ChiefHerley said a Traffic Control Device, partially funded through a Federal grant program, had
been installed to monitor vehicular speed on Tiburon Boulevard.
Mayor Bach said the appellant's representative for Public hearing Item No.7, "APPEAL OF
PLANNING COMMISSION DENIAL of Rezoning, Lot Line Adjustment, and Amendments to
Tiburon Highlands Master Plan & Precise Plan - AP Nos. 34-360-11, 38-182-20 & 38-322-11,"
had the flu and had asked for a continuance. He asked for Council comments concerning the
request for continuance.
Councilmember Matthews said interest was high in the issue given theamolUlt of correspondence
received by Council, as well as the number of people in the audience. However, Matthews said it
would not be fair to the applicant to hear the matter without his representative being present.
Councilmember Thompson said it was frustrating to everyone because the request had just come
in at noon of the hearing date, but said the process needed to be fair.
Vice Mayor Gram concurred, however, he suggested giving the public a choice of a bifurcated
hearing, that is, delivering their testimony tonight and hearing only from the applicant/appellant at
the continued hearing.
Mayor Bach said he thought it was better to hear all the testimony at once, and opened the floor
to the public for their comments on the continuance.
Vasco Morais, 321 Karen Way, said the same thing happened the last time the item was on the

Mayor Bach asked for suggested dates of continuance. The consensus of the audience was that
the next Town Council meeting date would not work because ofSprlng Break, and said March 3,
1999 would be preferable.
Applicant Fred Grange appeared in Council Chambers at 7:50 p.m. Mayor Bach asked ifhe was
prepared to go forward with the hearing in the absence of his representative, Tom Newton. Mr.
Grange said he was not, but agreed to the hearing date of March 3.
.
Mayor Bach closed the public hearing, and stated that the matter would be heard on March 3,
1999, whether or not the applicant was present.
D. COUNCIL. COMMISSION & COMMITTEE REPORTS
1) STATUS OF NEW POLICE BUILDING - (project Manager Jim Wilson)
Wilson said the job was 45% complete but that the project [timeline] was slipping. He said the
interior was 95% framed out and speculated that the crew could make up time during the
carpentry phase. Wilson said that work on the exterior of the project had been being delayed due
to rain and muddy conditions.
With regard to the off-site street improvements, a separate six-week contract related to the Police
Building project, Wilson said that final approval of the plans had been delayed, but that the Town
Manager and Chief of Police were helping to expedite the process through their contacts at
CALffRANS.
Finally, Wilson said that Building Committee member John Hoffinir~ hadagteed to lead the new
Police Station furniture fund-raising effort. He also noted that the,Police Dep~ment had picked
up some excess used furniture from a stock brokerage in San Fr~cisco ~~(1uid closed its office.

DANIEL M. WATROUS, SENIOR PLANNER
Subject: AMENDMENT TO RESOLUTION NO. 3297; SANFORD GOLDEEN;
ROUND HILL ROAD
Date: FEBRUARY 17, 1999
BACKGROUND
On August 19, 1998, the Town Council adopted Resolution No. 3297, approving the Round Hill
Oaks Precise Development Plan and adopting a mitigation monitoring program for this project,
which permitted the development of4 single-family dwellings on a 3.7 acre parcel on Round Hill
Road.
During the review of this project, the siting of the building envelope for Lot 2 was discussed at
length, due to the potential prominence of a future home on this site above Round Hill Road.
After extensive discussion with the applicant and the public, the Land Use Subcommittee of the
Town Council recommended that no more than one story (with ~.maximum h~eight of20 feet) of
any future home on Lot should be visible above grade when viewed from the portion of Round
Hill Road directly below the parcel (to the west). A 2 story house would be permitted, if the
house was designed to step downhill to the east or have a lower story that is not visible from
Round Hill Road to the west.
Due to a clerical error, the portion of Condition of Approval No. 12 of this resolution addressing
this issue simply states that "the house on Lot 2 will be restricted to one story above grade, with a
maximum height of 20 feet." This language could be construed to prevent the construction of any ,
two-story portion of a future house on the site, which is inconsistent with the intention of the
Land Use Subcommittee's recommendation.
In order to correct this discrepancy, it is recommended that Condition No. 12 of Resolution No.
3297 be amended to read as follows:
TIBURON TOWN COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 17, 1999
1
"The western comer of the building envelope for Lot 2 (closest to Round Hill Road) shall
be cut back by 10 feet to ensure that the future house on this parcel is pulled further back
from the street. The house on Lot 2 will be restricted to one story above grade, with a
maximum height of 20 feet. when viewed from Round Hill Road to the west. A revised
plan showing these changes shall be submitted to the Planning Department for review and
approval. The Design Review Board shall be directed to use its best judgement in the
placement of the house on Lot 2 toward the eastern end of the building envelope away
from Round Hill Road, and to minimize the mass and bulk of the houses on Lots 1 and 2
from Round Hill Road."
RECOMMENDA TION
Staff recommends that the Town Council adopt the attached resolution amending Resolution No.
3297 to clarify the intent of the Land Use Subcommittee regarding the Round Hill Oaks Precise
Development Plan.

ADOPTING A MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAlVf
ASSESSOR PARCEL NO. 58-301-26
WHEREAS, the Town Council of the Town ofTiburon does resolve as follows:
Section 1. Findings.
A The Town Council has received and considered an application filed by Sanford L. Goldeen
& Co. for a Precise Development Plan on a 3.66 acre site along Round Hill Road (the
Round Hill Oaks Precise Development Plan). The Precise Development Plan consists of
the following:
The development offour single-family dwellings on an existing 3.66 acre property.
Access to the site would be provided via a single private road delivering access to the four ,____
proposed homes.
One of the proposed lots (Lot 1) would occupy most of the northern end of the site. The
other three proposed lots (Lots 2, 3 & 4) would be established on the relatively flat,
southern portion of the property. The proposed parcel sizes would be 56,126 square feet
(1.29 acres) for Lot 1; 26,878 square feet (0.62 acres) forLot 2; 21,396 square feet (0.49
acres) for Lot 3; and 55,789 square feet (1.28 acres) for Lot 4.
The Round Hill Oaks Precise Plan would establish building envelop~s and other planning
limitations for the four proposed lots. The building envelope proposed for Lot 1 would
place a smaller (2,300 square foot maximum) house near the headwall of the drainage
channel, and tucked into the surrounding grove of trees. The proposed building envelopes
for Lots 2, 3 & 4 would place larger homes (ranging from 3,500 to 5,000 square feet) on
the flatter portion of this area, avoiding the serpentine grassland on the more heavily
sloped eastern side of the site. .
B. The Precise Development Plan application consists of File #39703, on file with the Town ,
of Tiburon Planning Department. Drawings from that application approved in this action
are as follows:
1. Site Plan, revised 4/1/98 (1 sheet).
2. Grading Plan, revised 4/1/98 (1 sheet).

C.
An Environmental Impact Report for the property has been prepared. The Planning
Commission reviewed the Draft EIR at a public hearing on February 11, 1998, and found
that this document adequately analyzed the potential environmental impacts of the project
in conformance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA). The Planning Commission directed that the Final EIR be prepared for
certification by the Town Council. Resolution No. 98-09A was adopted on April 8, 1998,
recommending to the Town Council that the Final EIR be certified. On June 17, 1998, the
Town Council adopted Resolution No. 3286 certifying the Final EIR.
. ----
D. CEQA requires the adoption of all feasible mitigation measures that can substantially
lessen or avoid any significant environmental impacts.
E. Pursuant to Section 4.08.03 of the Tiburon Zoning Ordinance, the Planning Commission
held duly-noticed public hearings on April 8, 1998 and May 13, 1998 and heard and
considered testimony from interested persons. The Planning Commission adopted
Resolution No. 98-12A recommending to the Town Council that the Round Hill Oaks
Precise Development Plan be approved and that the mitigation monitoring program be
adopted.
F. The Town Council held duly noticed public hearings on June 17, 1998 and August 19,
1998 and heard and considered testimony from interested persons. The Town Council
found that the proposal, as conditioned, is consistent with the Tiburon General Plan based
on the following facts:
Land Use Element
The biological study prepared for this project found that the most sensitive areas on this
property were contained on the upper portion of the site. These areas are located outside

Resolution No. 3297
8/19/98

EXHIBIT NO. l
f. 2~ Dr-I
of the proposed building envelopes, and would be preserved as open space. The location
of the building envelope for Lot 1 was designed to minimize the intrusion into the
surrounding wooded area. The project site is not located near any significant ridgelines
identified by the Town of Tiburon. This element designates this property for Medium
Density Residential development, which allows a density of up to 3.0 dwelling units per
acre. This density would allow up to 11 homes to be developed on this site, without the
physical constraints of this property.
Open Space and Conservation Element
The proposed project would maintain over half of the site as open space outside the four
building envelopes. The envelopes would avoid the sensitive vegetation on the upper
portion of the property and preserve the vast majority of the mature trees on the site. The
design of the project would not impact the views of neighboring residences and would be
consistent with the overall pattern of development in the surrounding area.
The viewshed analysis conducted as part of the EIR analysis concluded that there would
be no significant impacts on the views of any surrounding homes by the proposed project.
The location of the building envelope for Lot 1 has been designed to require the removal
of only 10 trees out of the large stand of more than 125 oak and bay trees on the site.
Most of the trees proposed to be removed. are situated around the building envelope for
Lot 1 and along the east side of the proposed roadway. These trees are at the edge of the
larger grove, and would leave the bulk of the wooded area on the site intact. The EIR
recommends that three oak trees be planted on the site for each oak tree removed as part
of the project.
, ....--
Very little grading would be necessary to construct the project as proposed, as most of the
earthmoving activities would involve the removal of landslide material from the flat
portion of the site and filling or recompacting these same areas back to their natural
terrain. Proper design of the homes in accordance with the Hillside Design Guidelines
should also limit grading necessary to construct homes on the site.
G. The Town Council found that the proposed project is consistent with Town Zoning
regulations based on the following factual analysis as required by Section 4.08.04 of the
Tiburon Zoning Ordinance, which sets forth these principles to be evaluated in the review
of Precise Development Plan applications:
(a) The location of the proposed building envelopes would leave well over half of the
site in an open condition, including much of the stand of oak trees, the drainage
channel and the serpentine rock and grassland areas.
(b) The applicant has made significant efforts to design the proposed project to
preserve the natural features of the site. The building envelopes for Lots 2, 3 and
Tiburon Town Council
Resolution No. 3297
~1~98 3
EXHIBIT NO. I
f. 3 oPI
4 have been placed on the flatter section of the property to avoid development of
the more pronounced hillside portion of the site. The building envelope for lot 1
has been placed closer to the front of the property to minimize encroachment into
the adjacent stand of oak trees and drainage channel area. The site is an unlikely,
isolated habitat for sensitive plant species. Most of the grassland is concentrated in
the upper portion of the site, which is not slated for construction, and would
remain unfenced and it its natural vegetation.
(c) Very little grading would be necessary to construct the project as proposed. The
conceptual plans for the homes to be constructed on the two proposed lots
generally reflect the slope of the site. Most of the earthmoving activities would
involve the removal of landslide material from the flat portion of the site and filling
or recompacting these same areas back to their natural terrain.
(d)
A viewshed analysis prepared for this project concluded that there would be no
significant impacts on the views of any surrounding homes by the proposed
project. A large stand of mature oak trees occupies the northwest comer of the
site, and several large bay trees are located along the drainage channel in this
portion of the property. Up to 10 of these trees are proposed to be removed as
part of this project, but three oak trees are proposed to be planted for each oak
tree removed. Most of the serpentine grassland habitat on the property is
concentrated in the upper portion of the site, which is not slated for construction.
. -----
(e) The project site is not located near any significant ridgelines identified by the
Tiburon General Plan, or in Resolution No. 2859 which identifies secondary
ridgelines.
(f) The locations of each of the proposed building envelopes have been properly
designed to reduce the prominence of the future homes constructed on the site.
The proposed building envelope for Lot 1 would nestle the future house into the
side of a hill and into the adjacent grove of trees. The other three proposed
building envelopes have been located on a relatively flat portion of the site which is
only visible from the existing homes below the site or from the Marinero Heights
condominium development above the property.
(g) The geological study prepared for this project revealed the presence of a relatively.
large landslide deposit on the southwest portion of the site. The geologic hazards
posed by this deposit could be mitigated to a less than significant level by
constructing of an earth buttress fill, reinforcement of on-site fill and other
improvements detailed in the EIR.
(h) The Final Environmental Impact Report prepared for this project found that all
potentially significant environmental impacts which would be caused by this
project can be mitigated to less than significant levels.

(i) The single access road serving the proposed project would have a width of 20 feet
for most of its length, widening at several points to provide guest parking spaces.
The slope of the proposed road varies from as little as 2% to as much as 19.8%,
and would have brushed surfaces for all roadway sections with grades greater than
18%. All publicly exposed retaining walls would be faced with dark hued natural
stone in a rustic wall pattern.
G) The proposed housing pattern is compatible with the surrounding neighborhoods.
Several other homes along Round Hill Road have been constructed close to the
street, in a manner similar to that proposed for the house on Lot 1. The building
envelopes proposed for Lots 2, 3 and 4 have been sited in an area well below the
adjacent condominiums.
(k) The location of the proposed homes would not result in any significant view
impacts on neighboring residences. The location of the proposed building
envelopes would create adequate separation between the future houses and nearby
existing homes, insuring the privacy of neighboring residents. Particular care
should be taken in the Design Review process to mitigate the mass and bulk of the
project.
(1) The noise study prepared for this project determined that the locations of the
houses would not result in any long-term significant noise impacts on surrounding
homes.
(m) The building envelopes for Lots 2, 3 and 4 have been sited away from the areas of
serpentine grassland found on the upper portion of the site. The building envelope
proposed for Lot 1 would be situated. at the western edge of the stand of oak and
bay trees on the property, and the size of the future house on this lot reduced in
order to minimize the intrusion of construction into the wooded area.
(n) No street lights are proposed for this project. Low level roadway downlighting
would be installed on the site.
(0) Materials and colors used in improvements will be required to blend into the
natural environment to the extent reasonably possible.
(p) Consistency with other goals and policies of the General Plan Elements has been
demonstrated, as discussed above.

from the street. The house on Lot 2 will be restricted to one story above grade, with a
maximum height of 20 feet, when viewed from Round Hill Road to the west. A revised
plan showing these changes shall be submitted to the Planning Department for review and
approval. The Design Review Board shall be directed to use its best judgement in the
placement of the house on Lot 2 toward the eastern end of the building envelope away
from Round Hill Road, and to minimize the mass and bulk of the houses on Lots 1 and 2
from Round Hill Road."
