STAFF REPORT
To:
Mayor and Members of the Town Council
From:
Administrative Services Department
Subject:
Accept Mid-Year Financial Report
Period Ended December 31,2007
~J)'~
~,/
Reviewed By:
The accompanying financial statements provide summary information covering the Operating
Budget, Capital Improvement Program, Fund Transfers and Fund Resources of the Town for the
second quarter of FY 2007-08, which ended December 31, 2007. These statements reflect the
Town's overall financial position for operations through December 31 st and provide projections
to year-end closing on June 30, 2008.
ANALYSIS
Operatinl! Budl!et
Schedule 1 provides a summary of the operating budget for the Town at December 31, 2007.
Operating revenues were at 44.4% of budget and operating expenditures at 46.9% of budget.
This provided for a net operating loss of $161 ,052. Historically the Town operates in a deficit
position through mid-year due to some major revenue sources being received after this reporting
period and certain significant, one-time expenditures being paid early in the fiscal year, i.e. Joint
Power Agreements and liability and worker's compensation insurance premiums. However, staff'
projects the Town will complete the fiscal year with an operating surplus of $522,906. This
represents an increase of $390,415 over the adopted budget operating surplus of $132,491.
Schedule 2 provides a detailed overview of the Town's operating position. By mid-year staff is
able to project significant changes that may affect the estimated year end operating revenues and
expenditures. Below is an explanation of projected changes:
Operatinl! Budl!et Revenues
Property Taxes: In November the Town received $249,000 in ERAF property tax receipts from
the County that were not budgeted. This represents a one-time allocation of SB 418 ERAF funds.
Additionally, based on the December 2007 secured property tax remittance by the County, Staff
can now determine that Secured Property Tax receipts will be 2.2%, or $45,000, greater than
budgeted. All other property tax revenues are anticipated to meet budget projections.
'[o\vn C':ouncil iYJccting
January 16, 2008
Other Taxes: Based on TOT receipts for the first four months of the fiscal year, Staff anticipates
that Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) receipts will exceed budget by $75,000. This increase is
based solely upon The Lodge at Tiburon performing better than anticipated during this reporting
period.
Investment Earnings: The Town invests its idle funds in the Local Agency Investment Fund
(LAIF). Based on a slightly better than anticipated investment returns, Staff projects by fiscal
year end the Town's investment earnings will exceed budget by $25,000.
All other revenue categories are anticipated to finish year-end at budget. Intergovemental and
Agency revenues are only at 5.9% of budget because Motor Vehicle License Fees ($615,025) are
remitted to the Town by the County after December 31 st.
Operatine Budeet Expenditures
Staff projects that operating expenditures will be at budget. As Schedule 2 indicates operating
expenditures are at 47% of budget for the reporting period.
Transfers and Reallocation of Funds
For this reporting period there have been no approved transfers or reallocation of funds. Staff
will be presenting to Council in the near future its recommended General Fund allocations to
reserves based upon audited figures of the General Fund surplus at June 30, 2007.
Capital Improvement Proeram
Street Improvement Proiects: Schedule 4-A illustrates the approved capital improvement streets
program for fiscal year 2007-08. Staffprojects all street projects will be completed and within
budget, with the exception of the Reed School pedestrian bridge which is subject to the
commencement of the Del Mar Valley Underground construction project.
Drainage Improvement Proiects: Schedule 4-B shows the approved drainage improvement
projects for the year. Staff anticipates that all drainage projects will be completed and within
budget. Historically, drainage projects are bid and constructed during the spring and summer
months.
Community Development Proiects: Schedule 4-C illustrates the approved community
development projects for the fiscal year. Staff anticipates all projects will be completed during
the year, with the exception of the Del Mar Undergrounding Assessment District, which is on
hold pending the outcome of current litigation. Additionally, Staff does not anticipate proceeding
with the paths and lane improvements project because grant funding has not been approved at this
time.

January 16, )008
Statement of Fund Resources
Given staffs projected changes to the Operating and Capital Improvement budgets, Schedule 5
provides the beginning balance for each Town fund; the revised change to each fund, and the
projected fund balance at year end. This schedule projects the General Fund to be in a surplus
position of $509,906 at fiscal year end.
Summary
Based on mid-year interim results, the Town's financial condition continues to be excellent. Key
revenues are performing as budgeted or slightly better and Staff continues to control operating
expenses and staYing within budget. Tiburon is in the enviable position of continuing to provide
excellent services while enjoYing operating surpluses. This in-turn allows the Town to fund an
aggressive maintenance/improvement program of the Town's infrastructure.
It appears the economy will continue its slowing trend well into 2008. The real estate market is
also expected to remain soft. Though Tiburon tends to be somewhat insulated from the effects of
the economy, the recent news of the State's projected $14 billion deficit will likely have some
effect on Town revenues from the State during FY 2008-09. Though local governments have
protection over the amount of revenue the State may take, Staff will continue to closely monitor
the news from the Governor's Office as to how the State's budget problems will impact the
Town.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
This item does not have any financial impacts upon the Town.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Town Council:
Move to accept the mid-year financial report as submitted.

Recommendation to Approve the Third Amendment to the Employment
~ofthe Town Attorney
Subject:
BACKGROUND
On December 5, 2007 the Town Council met in closed session to conduct its annual evaluation of
the Town Attorney. The Mayor subsequently worked with the Town Attorney and Town
Manager to determine an appropriate adjustment to her salary to reflect her continued excellent
service to the Town.
FINANCIAL IMP ACT
The Town Attorney works a part-time schedule of approximately 26 hours per week (750/0 of a 35
hour work week). Her contract provides that while she works on this schedule, she shall receive
750/0 of her base salary, which is presently $144, 600. Given the Town Attorney's 750~ status,
the proposed adjustment would provide a 70/0 increase of her annual salary, taking it from its
current level of $108, 450 to $116, 041. This increase is recommended in order to bring her
salary more in line with city and town attorneys serving in similar capacities in other cities as
well as to recognize the quality of her work on behalf of the Town. This increase can be
absorbed within the Administrative Services Department budget.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Town Council:
Approve the proposed amendment to the Town Attorney's contract as provided in the
attached draft.
Exhibits:
Amendment 3 to Employment Contract
Prepared By:
Peggy Curran, Town Manager
THIRD AMENDMENT TO TOWN ATTORNEY'S
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
This AMENDMENT TO THE TOWN ATTORNEY'S EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT ("Amendment") is effective as of February 7,2007, by and between The Town of
Tiburon ("Town") and Ann R. Danforth ("Employee").
RECITALS
A. On December 15,1995, the Town and Employee entered into a letter agreement
("Original Agreement") that retained Employee as Town Attorney for the Town,
beginning on January 22, 1996. Employee has ably served as the Town Attorney since
that date. On March 18, 1998, the Town and Employee amended the Original Agreement
by a memorandum providing for Employee's continuing as Town Attorney on a seventy-
five percent work schedule on an indefinite basis.
B. Effectively July 1, 2001, the parties entered into a new agreement that superceded and
replaced the Original Agreement and amendment ("Attorney's Agreement"). The parties
subsequently amended the Attorney's Agreement on November 16,2005 and on February 7,
2007.
C. The Town Council has conducted its 2007 performance evaluation of Employee as set forth
and is well satisfied with Employee's Performance. The Council finds that the Employee
has demonstrated legal and management skills that compare favorably to persons holding
similar positions in similar agencies.
D. The Town's policy is to offer compensation packages that are competitive with similar
employers for similar positions so as to maintain the highest quality staff to serve the public.
To continue to maintain a competitive compensation package for Employee so as to retain
Employee as Tqwn Attorney, the Council has decided to further modify the Employee's
Agreement and compensation as set forth in this Amendment and Employee has agreed to
such modification. The Town Council accordingly has authorized the Town Manager to
execute this Agreement on behalf of the Town.
NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF THE ABOVE RECITALS AND
OF THE MUTUAL PROMISES AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, IT IS

There was $720,000 budgeted to design, inspect, and construct the project. There were no change
orders. Based on the work performed and material installed, the final construction cost is
$369,153. During town-wide pavement review and planning, roads that were categorized as
"failed," such as the above, were earmarked and budgeted for extensive repairs and resurfacing.
However, at the project-level stage the design team determined that based on various parameters,
Town Council Meeting
such as traffic loading, extensive base repairs could be localized and minimized thereby
developing a more cost-efficient solution with significant savings for the project. Considering
design and inspection fees and other miscellaneous costs, the total project cost is $469,849,
delivering the project under budget.
RECOMMENDA TION
Staff recommends that the Town Council:
Move to adopt a resolution accepting this project as complete and authorizing the Director
of Public Works / Town Engineer to execute the Notice of Completion on behalf of the
T own Council, and upon completion of the 35 day period, release the retention funds to
the contractor.

From:
Community Development Department
Subject:
Resolution Authorizing Membership in ICLEI - Local Governments
For Sustain ability and the Cities for Climate Protection Campaign
~
Reviewed By:
BACKGROUND
In 2005, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) established a Climate
Protection Program to reduce pollutants that contribute to global climate change and affect air
quality in the Bay Area. In June 2005, the Governor signed Executive Order #S-3-05,
establishing greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets for the State. The Governor formed a multi-
departmental Climate Action Team to implement global warming emission reduction programs
and to report on progress statewide. In September 2006, the Legislature passed AB 32, the
California Global Warming Solutions Act of2006. AB 32 codified the Governor's emission
reduction goals.
ANAL YSIS
Local agencies are required to review and adopt local best management practices for reaching the
State GHG targets. Efforts adopted by the State are broad target strategies; however, these efforts
do not fully address actions that are best initiated at the local level. In November of2007, the
Marin Climate and Energy Partnership (MCEP) was formed, comprised of all Marin
municipalities, which have a common goal of creating sustainable communities that promote
healthy environments, robust local economies, and social equality. The Town is a participant in
MCEP which supports and implements greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction programs to
achieve the countywide goal of reducing GHG emissions by 46% below current levels.
The MCEP partnered with ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability, and with the support
of various Marin County environmental agencies, collaboratively applied for and was awarded a
$75,000 Climate Protection Grant through the Bay Area Air Quality Management District. The
grant money will fund a temporary position, a Climate Action Director, to assist all Marin
agencies in the development of strategies that can be incorporated into each agency's general plan
process. The Marin General Services Agency would ultimately contract for the position as a
regional body representing all Marin agencies.
'Io\vn (~\)unc!l:vrccting
J,u1Uary 16,2008
In order to adopt best management practices and policies to reduce GHG emissions, a Climate
Action Plan must be developed. ICLEI has assisted numerous local Marin agencies in adoption
of this type of plan, and will be providing assistance to each participant within MCEP in
analyzing data, setting a target goal, and drafting a climate action plan specific to each
jurisdiction. In order for the Town to utilize the resources of ICLEI in the development of a local
Climate Action Plan, membership is necessary.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Annual membership dues are based on the population of each local government. Local
governments with a population between 1 and 50,000 pay annual dues of$600.

Budget-Friendly Tips for Cutting
Greenhouse Gas Elllissions
By reducing greenhouse gas emissions, local governments of all sizes can cut energy
costs, improve air quality, stimulate the local economy, and mitigate global warming.
Below are six easy ways to get started.
Switch to LEDs
LEDs or light emitting diodes, are 90 percent more
energy efficient and last 6-10 times longer than
conventional lights, Save energy and maintenance
costs by switching conventional bulbs to LEDs in
traffic signals and exit lights. Because these lights
are functioning 24 hours a day, the energy and
cost savings accrue quickly.
Turn Out the Lights at Night
Instituting a "lights out at night" policy in city
buildings is an easy and effective way to save
electricity, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and
save municipal dollars. This can be accomplished
through educational campaigns and through
technology, such as timers and occupancy sensors,
Buy Bikes for Law
Enforcement Officials
Bicycles are inexpensive and people-powered.
Downsizing some police sedans to mountain
bikes in dense urban areas will significantly cut
fuel costs, reduce tailpipe emissions, and in times
of heavy traffic congestion, increase mobility.
Lighten Up Rooftops
Cool roofs absorb less solar energy and quickly
release any heat that they store. Simply adding a
highly reflective/emissive coating to a black or
metal roof can reduce the need for air conditioning
and produce huge annual cost and energy savings
while decreasing greenhouse gas emissions at the
same time.
Purchase Energy
Efficient Equipment
Look for ENERGY STAR labeled equipment-
ENERGY STAR computers use 70 percent less
electricity than non-ENERGY STAR equipment.
Some ENERGY STAR copy machines reduce paper
costs by $60 a month and reduce energy costs at
the same time, and fax machines that have earned
the ENERGY STAR label can cut associated energy
costs by 40 percent.
Encourage Commuters
to Ride the Bus
Providing incentives for commuters to ride a bus
rather than drive a car to work is one way for cities
to decrease traffic, free up downtown parking
spaces, and reduce emissions too. These can
include subsidized or free transit passes, parking
cash-out programs, coordinated car or van pools,
and programs such as a commuter challenge (for
fun and prizes).
Local Governlllent Leadership
Through Innovation
All across the US, local governments are finding
innovative ways to reduce elnissions while achieving a
host of other benefits.
Energy Efficiency
Minneapolis's Police Precinct Renovation
The City of Minneapolis recently turned an overcrowded police precinct into
one of the community's most innovative green buildings. The city renovated
and added on to the existing structure and carried out comprehensive energy
modeling to examine the energy use impacts of all new and existing systems.
The resulting benefits include approximately 40 percent savings in annual
energy costs, a reduction of more than 300 tons of CO2 emissions,
and an anticipated return on investment in less than seven years.
Chicago's Green Bungalow Initiative
The City of Chicago renovated four bungalow-style homes to determine if the
benefits of green building, such as improved indoor air quality and energy
efficiency, could be achieved afford ably \,,,hile remaining true to the original
spirit of each home's design. Renovation of the homes was completed in 2002
and a subsequent energy analysis showed that the four bungalows together
saved ~37,000 kWh and ~4,300 therms of natural gas each year. TI1e
renovation also prevented 56 tons of CO2 from being released into the
atmosphere annually. Simple payback periods for the additional green features
of these homes ranged between 4.6 and 8.1 years. The green bungalows were
projected to yield an average savings of more than $900 per home for
heating, cooling, and hot water use in comparison to standard rehab homes.
Ann Arbor's Municipal Energy Fund
Since 1998 Ann Arbor's Municipal Energy Fund has provided city facilities
with a source of capital for energy efficiency retrofits. The Energy Fund
provides initial capital for new projects and receives 80 percent of projected
annual energy savings from each installed project for five years. TI1e five-year
payment plan allows projects that have a shorter payback to help support
projects \vith a longer payback, and all savings accrued beyond the first five
years remain with the departments implementing the improvements. 111e
Fund was seeded by the city with five annual investments of $100,000,
and quickly became self-sustaining. Most installed measures have had
payback periods of three to six years, and projects supported by the Fund
have yielded a total of 685 tons of annual eC02 reductions.
Renewable Energy
Montgomery County, Maryland's Green Power Purchasing
In 2004, Montgomery County led a group of local governments and local
government agencies in a wind energy purchase that represents 5 percent of
the buying group's total electricity needs. Under the two-year deal, the buying
,
group will collectively purchase 38 million kWh of wind energy annually,
translating into a yearly reduction of 21,000 tons of CO2, 95,000
pounds of nitrous oxides, and 1.4 pounds of mercury. The County
demonstrated the benefits of renewable energy in meeting the requirements
of the federal Clean Air Act by including the wind energy purchase as a
control measure for ozone pollution in a "State Implementation Plan" for air
quality improvement. The County plans to offset the added expense of the
wind power purchase by instituting employee energy efficiency programs
such as turning off lights, computers, and office equipment when not is use.
Solid Waste
San Prancisco's Organics Collection Program
The City of San Francisco instituted residential curbside collection of
organic material as part of its Fantastic Three program. The program
provides each household with a green cart for organic waste, a blue cart for
commingled recyclables, and a black cart for all remaining trash. Residents
and businesses are encouraged to place all food scraps and yard trimmings
into the green cart, which is collected for compo sting at a regional facility.
By instituting curbside organics collection, San Francisco became the first
large city in the nation to collect food scraps citywide. The Fantastic ll1fee
program enabled the city to reach a reported overall 67 percent garbage
diversion rate in 2004. Through outreach and other methods, the City
plans to expand the Fantastic Three program and increase both the amount
of organics and recyclables collected. The program's expansion is projected
to achieve an annual eC02 reduction of 70,000 tons.
Seattle's Ban on Recyclables from Garbage
Since January 2005 the City of Seattle has prohibited the disposal of certain
recyclables from residential, commercial, and self-haul garbage by law. The
new recycling ordinance is aimed at eliminating recyclable or compostable
paper, cardboard, aluminum cans, plastic bottles, and yard debris that, until
recently, have constituted approximately 25 percent of the city's garbage.
TIle city hopes the new ordinance will save residents and businesses as
much as $2 million per year and keep future garbage costs low, as well as
help to reverse the recent decline in Seattle's recycling rates. The measure is
projected to achieve an annual reduction of 260,000 tons of eC02.
Miami-Dade County's Paperless Traffic
Court Voice Response System
Miami- Dade County became a pioneer in the realm of waste reduction when
it implemented the wo.rld's first "paperless" traffic court. Using technology
that digitizes paper-based documents and makes them more accessible,
both internally and to the public, the county has significantly increased the
efficiency with which it handles traffic court cases and reduced the amount
of paper used in the process. In addition to the paperless traffic court,
the county also implemented an Interactive Voice Response telephone
system that enables citizens to pay for traffic and parking tickets over the
phone or online, make court dates, or make child support inquiries. The
system reduces the need for considerable amounts of paperwork, thereby
minimizing waste. It also significantly reduces transportation miles to
and from court, eliminating an estimated 1,480,000 vehicle miles
traveled and 4,300 tons of eC02 since its implementation.
Transportation
Keene's Conversion to Biodiesel
From fire engines to snowplows, all 77 of the vehicles in the City of Keene,
New Hampshire's Public Works Department are running smoothly on B20
biodiesel. The fleet is fueled onsite at the department's pump. The biodiesel
performs well in cold temperatures and has improved the air quality inside
the fleet maintenance facility The City has burned more than 4,400 gallons
of biodiesel since 2002, which prevents an estimated 12 tons of CO2
from entering the atmosphere annually.
Honolulu's Bus Rapid Transit Program
A steady growth in passengers choosing the bus for their commute has
accompanied the expansion of Honolulu's Bus Rapid Transit program.
Monthly ridership has increased from about 100,000 riders since 1999,
when the program began, to over 630,000 in 2005. Assuming that half
of BRT ridership represents a shift from trips made in passenger vehicles
to trips taken on BRT, this equated to an annual CO2 reduction of
approximately 7 ,OO~ tons.
Portland's Light Rail System
The TriMet Metropolitan Area Express (MAX) light rail system, serving 64
stations over 44 miles of track in the Portland metropolitan area, sees 97,000
trips each weekday. More than $3 billion in development has occurred along
MAX lines since the decision to build was made in 1978. MAX ridership now
eliminates 22.2 million car trips per year, offsetting an estimated 26,400
tons of CO2 annually, while reducing traffic, improving air quality, and
preserving neighborhood livability.

Community Outreach
Burlington's 10% Challenge
The 10% Challenge in Burlington, VT is a voluntary program to raise public
awareness about global climate change and to encourage households and
businesses to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by at least 10 percent.
Enlisting innovative outreach methods such as a musical road show called
"Beat the Heat:' the program is achieving an estimated annual reduction
of 1,500 tons of CO2 in the residential sector alone.
Other Initiatives
Newark's Tree Planting Initiative
In 2004 Newark undertook a new project to create a more attractive,
healthier, energy-efficient city with one simple tool: trees. Utilizing funding
from a statewide urban forest energy efficiency initiative called "Cool
Cities:' Newark planted 500 trees in strategic areas to employ the tree's
energy efficiency and air pollution reduction benefits. The City anticipates
each tree to reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 12 percent
for buildings that are shaded by the trees, which will in-turn reduce energy
use and greenhouse gas emissions.
Take Action! Develop A Local Action Plan
Is your community ready to save money and increase livability
while reducing greenhouse gas emissions?
Get started by developing a Local Action Plan. The process outlined below will help identify tried-and-
true, budget-friendly opportunities and innovative new custom projects that can reduce greenhouse
gas emissions in your jurisdiction. Select the best combination of projects that will enable your
community to achieve its emissions reduction target and include them in your Local Action Plan.
Step 1
Identify existing programs already reducing greenhouse gas emissions
Does your city have a curbside recycling program or provide incentives for carpooling or riding
public transport? Have any city buildings been retrofitted? Often there are many existing projects and
programs already running in your jurisdiction to save money, increase energy efficiency, reduce solid
waste, or improve local air quality. Find out what they are and if they are also reducing greenhouse
gas emissions.
Step 2
Quantify emissions reductions already achieved
Use ICLEr's quantification software to measure the greenhouse gas reduction benefits of your
jurisdiction's existing programs. As you learn which programs are most effective at reducing
emissions, you can apply this knowledge in planning future projects. Add together the reductions
you have already achieved to determine how far your local government has already come toward
meeting its emissions reduction target, and how far you still have to go. . "
Step 3
Identify new opportunities for further reducing emissions
Consider the results of your greenhouse gas inventory and forecast-as well as sample projects
implemented by yo~r peers across the ICLEI network-in order to identify new reduction
measures that maximize cost effectiveness, minimize staffing needs, build political support, raise
public awareness, and create co-benefits such as new jobs and improved public health. Use ICLEr's
quantification software to measure the emissions reductions of each proposed project and compare
your total planned reductions to your community's emissions reduction target.
Step 4
Put everything together: Create your Local Action Plan
Once the total reductions resulting from your existing and planned projects meet your community's
reduction target, it's time to incorporate all of these projects into a Local Action Plan.
ICLEI's website [www.icleLorg/usa] provides links to sample action plans created
by other local governments in ICLEI's Cities for Climate Protection~ network.

Annual Reporting of Development Impact Fees: Recommendation to
Accept Report
~
Reviewed by:
BACKGROUND
Similar to most cities and counties in California, the Town of Tiburon imposes certain public
facilities fees on development projects during the approval process. Certain of these fees are
categorized as "development fees" under Section 66000 et seq. of the California Government
Code. Section 66006 of that code requires that specific data regarding development fees is made
available to the public within 180 days following the end of each fiscal year, with a public
meeting held on the matter at the next regularly scheduled meeting following release of the data.
This report sets forth the required annual data reporting for the Town's development fee accounts
for Fiscal Year 2006-2007, which closed on June 30, 2007.
ANAL YSIS
The Town of Tiburon imposes four categories of fees that could qualify as development fees.
These categories are 1) traffic impact fees 2) street impact fees 3) affordable housing in-lieu fees
and 4) stormwater runoff fees. Park and recreation in-lieu fees, which the Town also collects, are
not defined as development fees in the statute. Reporting data for each of the Town's
development fee categories is shown below.
Traffic Mitigation Funds
In 1996, the Town established two separate traffic mitigation fee accounts, each addressing
different portions of the Tiburon Planning Area. The Town Council received a mandatory five-
year report on these funds in January 2007 and made findings regarding the future use of
unexpended funds in these accounts. In March 2007, an updated Traffic Mitigation Fee Schedule
based on projections from the Town's General Plan Tiburon 2020 went into effect. The two
traffic mitigation accounts and the required data for this annual report are as follows:
Circulation System Improvement Fund (CSIF): This fund contains the collected exactions for
construction of public traffic improvements in the incorporated portions of the Tiburon Planning
Area. The fee varies depending on the location of the project in relation to intersections
identified in the General Plan Circulation Element as requiring improvement. The fee varies
from $ 0 per PM peak trip to $ 5,278 per PM peak trip.

improvements at Stewart Drive and Tiburon Boulevard. No inter-fund loans or transfers occurred
in this account for FY2006-07 and no refunds from this account were issued in FY 2006-07.
Planning Area Mitigation Fund (P AMF): This fund contains the collected exactions for public
traffic improvements in portions of the Tiburon Planning Area outside of the Town's corporate
limits. The fee varies depending on the location of the project in relation to intersections
identified in the General Plan Circulation Element for improvement. The fee varies from $0 per
PM peak trip to $ 361 per PM peak trip.

The FY 2007-08 Town budget does not contain any expenditures from this account. Additional
future projects to which these funds would be contributed include a merge/acceleration lane at the
Tiburon Boulevard/Cecilia Way intersection and capacity improvements at the Tiburon
BoulevardlRedwood Highway Frontage Road intersection. These improvements are set forth in
the General Plan Circulation Element, but are likely to be at least 3-5 years away. The cost of
these improvements will exceed funds available at this time.
No inter-fund loans or transfers occurred in this account for FY2006-07 and no refunds from this
account were issued in FY 2006-07.
Street Impact Fund
The street impact fee initially went into effect in July 1999. This fee partially off-sets the Town's
costs of public roadway maintenance by assessing a fee of 1.0% (.01) on the valuation of all
building permits issued by the Town. A project with a $100,000 building permit valuation would
therefore be subject to a street impact fee of$I,OOO. The Town Council received a mandatory
five-year report on these funds in January 2004 and made findings regarding the future use of
unexpended funds in these accounts. The next five-year report will be due in January, 2009.

January 2, 2008
For FY 2007-08, the Town has identified in its adopted budget $1,208,000 in planned street
improvement projects to be funded by the Street Impact Fund. These improvements are expected
to be underway and/or completed in FY 2007-08. The Town maintains a Pavement Management
Program (PMP), which analyzes the condition of the Town's streets and suggests appropriate
repair/replacement techniques based on this analysis. In 2006, the Town embarked on an
aggressive program to eliminate its "failed" street segments. Unexpended funds currently
remaining in the Street Impact account will be spent over the next 2-3 years as the Town
completes its failed streets program. No refunds or transfers were issued from this account in FY
2006-2007.
Affordable Housing In-Lieu Fund
This fee is collected either at the subdivision map or building permit stage, at the option of the
developer. Its revenues are used for the design and construction of permanently affordable
housing units or for other actions that would directly preserve, conserve, rehabilitate, or increase
the supply of affordable units in the Tiburon Planning Area. The fee is calculated using a
formula contained within Chapter 16 (Zoning) of the Tiburon Municipal Code. The formula
contains several variables (such as interest rates) and the amount of the fee can vary over time
depending on these variables. Generally, the in-lieu fee amount ranges from $350,000 to
$440,000 for each required affordable unit that is not built, dependent upon prevailing interest
rates and other variables at the time of calculation. A project creating 12 or more units or lots
would be responsible to provide 20% affordable units or pay the resulting in-lieu fee. Projects
that produce between 7 and 12 units would be responsible for providing 15% affordable units.
Projects that create between 2 and 7 units pay a prorated share of the in-lieu fee, for example, a 6-
unit project would pay 0.6 of the in-lieu fee for an affordable unit not built. It is unclear whether
affordable housing in-lieu fees are a "development fee" as defined in state law; however, the
following information is public record. In providing affordable housing in-lieu fund information
contained within this report, the Town of Tiburon neither admits nor implies that the above
information is required to be reported pursuant to Section 66006 of the Government Code.

For FY 2007-08 the Town has $4,375 in expenditures planned from the Affordable Housing In-
Lieu Fund. As several new affordable housing sites have been identified in the recently-adopted
Housing Element of the Tiburon General Plan, and as developers move forward with actual
projects, the housing in-lieu funds collected will be expended toward affordable housing projects.
The Town anticipates committing or spending this money within the time frame of the current
Housing Element (2009).
No inter-fund loans or transfers occurred in this account for FY2006-07, and no refunds from this

Storm water Runoff Fund
The Town adopted a Stormwater Runoff impact fee in 2004. The stormwater impact fee helps
recover the costs of upgrading the Town's public storm drain system to accommodate additional
runoff caused by new construction. The fee is $1.00 per square foot of new impervious surface
created by construction projects.

Subject:
Recommendation to Amend Hourly Billing Rate Schedules for Town
Personnel and to Adopt Updated Fee Schedules for the Community
Development and Public Works Departments
@
Reviewed By:
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
Hourlv Rate Schedule
The Town annually reviews and updates its Hourly Rate Schedule for Town Personnel to reflect
salary and benefit adjustments. These hourly rates represent the cost to the Town of each
employee in terms of salary and benefits. The Hourly Rate Schedule was last updated in January
of 2007. Staff has prepared a draft resolution (Exhibit 1) adopting a revised Hourly Rate
Schedule that reflects current salary and benefit recovery costs. The revised Schedule reflects
also reflects changes in position titles. The Hourly Rate Schedule is used to calculate recovery
costs for individual staff hours spent on research or other tasks not involving the processing of
complex development applications.
Hourlv Billing Rate Schedule for Processing of Development Applications
On October 17,2007, the Town Council adopted an hourly billing rate schedule for certain Town
employees who process complex development applications. The billing rates reflected "fully
allocated" cost recovery and were higher than typical billing rates for individual time that does
not include administrative overhead. At that time, the Town Council directed that the positions of
Town Manager and Town Attorney be added to the list of personnel who process complex
development applications. A draft resolution adopting a revised Billing Rates Schedule for
Processing of Development Applications, including those two positions, is attached as Exhibit 2.
Community Development Department and Public Works/Town Engineer Fee Schedules
The hourly billing rate schedule for processing complex applications applies only to those types
of applications denoted as "initial fee deposit required" on the Community Development
Department Fee Schedule and/or the Public Works/Town Engineer Fee Schedule. Since the
hourly billing rates are substantially higher for these complex projects, the initial fee deposit
amount must also be increased to reflect typical processing times at the higher billing rates. In
"rown C:oundl
both of the application fee schedules, the initial fee deposit amount is generally increasing
anywhere from a factor of 1.6 to 2.1 depending on the increase in the billing rate of the staff
position most likely to perform the application processing. Any remaining balance from an initial
fee deposit is refunded to the applicant; additional funds beyond the original deposit amount are
collected if needed to complete processing. Draft resolutions adopting the revised fee schedules
are attached as Exhibits 3 and 4.
Fish & Game CEOA State-Mandated Review Fees
Effective January 1,2008, State Department ofFish & Game environmental review fees have
increased slightly. The Community Development Department Fee Schedule is being amended to
reflect these increases. This is a pass-through fee paid to the Marin County Clerk and not
retained by the Town.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Town Council:
1. Hold a public hearing and take any public testimony on the matter.
2. Adopt the resolutions amending the hourly rate schedules and the development
application fee schedules.
