RESOLUTION NO. 2739
A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF
THE TOWN OF TIBURON DENYING APPEAL
OF DESIGN REVIEW ACTION ON A NEW
RESIDENCE AT 118 REED RANCH ROAD (HILLER)
THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF TIBURON DOES HEREBY RESOLVE
AND FINDS AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Background, Record and Findings.
A. On June 28, 1990, and July 26, 1990, the Design Review Board (DRB) held
a public hearing to consider the approval of the design of a residence at 118
Reed Ranch Road. After fully considering the project, and the testimony
received, the DRB denied the project. The DRB's action was appealed to the
Town Council.
B. On September 5, 1990, the Town Council held a public hearing to consider
the appeal. The minutes of that meeting accurately reflect the testimony
received. At that meeting the Council determined that certain elements of
the design of the structure were unsatisfactory and, in particular,
encroachment of the pool deck outside the building envelope, and remanded
the matter to the DRB.
C. At the September 5, 1990 Town Council meeting, a hearing was held to
consider the merits of the appeal, and, in accordance with section 19(D) of
the Zoning Ordinance, to take final and conclusive action to either affirm,
reverse or modify the decision of the DRB. At the hearing, the Council
received an oral staff report from the Planning Director. Staff also provided
the Council with considerable background information and prior minutes of
DRB meetings where this matter has been deliberated. The Council has
reviewed and considered the information provided to it by staff. The Council
considered the written Appeal dated 8/7/90 filed by Gene Hiller. The
Council received oral testimony from the appellant and interested members
of the public.
Section 2. Decision.
BASED ON THE RECORD BEFORE IT, AND THE TESTIMONY RECEIVED,
THE COUNCIL FINDS, RESOLVES AND DECIDES AS FOLLOWS:
A. The color selection for the house should be re-evaluated.
B. The copper roof should be replaced with a slate roof.
C. The pool and all other structures should be entirely within the building
envelope in accordance with the Ring Mountain Development Agreement.
D. The height should be re-evaluated to see if it can be reduced without
destroying the building proportions.
E. The landscape plan should be reviewed for appropriateness and to avoid
overplanting.
F. Based on the findings and prior determination set forth in this section 2, and
based on the findings set forth in section 1, the Council incorporates the
findings and decision of the DRB reflected in the minutes of their June 21,
1990, and July 26, 1990, meetings, and denies the appeal in its entirety, and
upholds the decision of the Design Review Board (DRB) denying the design
review application for this project.
