DIGEST a~ Last year, 34 Belvedere and Tiburon residents contributed nearly $4,000 and we worked ten Saturday mornings to keep those annoying devils at bay. Our volunteers along with a great crew of day laborers ($15/hr, plus tips for excellent work and lunch courtesy of Shark's Deli) stand ready to, pardon the pun, pick up where we left off last fall. It is noteworthy that in 2009, Belvedere and the Belvedere Community Foundation made grants to further Peninsula Pride's cause (much of which was expended over the winter). Still, we need whatever you believe a weed- and litter-free drive to and from town is worth. Please mail checks to Peninsula Pride, P.O. Box 808, Tiburon, CA, 94920. Cheer im Wood P.S. If you enjoy the raw thrill of volunteer weed whacking, meet in Blackie's Pasture this coming Saturday, March 20th, at 8:30 am. A snappy yellow vest, a Shark's Deli lunch, and a pat on the back are part of the deal. If interested, let me know via jwoodgmarinmagazine. com.

(JSC) Cherry Reilly, Property Manager - The Hilarita Apartments, JSC Residents: Kacy Couto A QUORUM IS 7 1. MEETING CALL TO ORDER President Lester determined that a quorum was present and called for order at 7:39 PM in the Community Resource Center of The Hilarita Apartments. President Lester called for approval of the minutes There being no comments, it was: M/S/P (D. Leary/B. Garcia-Romero) that the Board approve the January 11, 2010 minutes as presented. 14 ayes, 1 abstain 3. OPEN FORUM 1. President Lester advised that resident Mia Aprahamian's son Eben Twombly died on January 19 after a long battle with colon cancer. He said that he had known Eben for some time and elaborated on Eben's achievements, his family, and his interest in people. (obituary in the The Ark's February 10, 2010 issue, pg 10) 2. The HRA security deposit interest derived from investments was questioned. President Lester advised that H-TEA is not allowed to give this money to any non-profit (IRS 5013c); and at last report HRA had not filed for this status. There was conversation between J. Hardy and Ms. Tilton, JSC, until President Lester cited a point of order stating that questions and answers are to be directed to the President. In discussion, it was recommended that a third party auditor be consulted on this matter, and Ms. Tilton < 1 > for funding the Green Retrofit Program. The H-TEA Board will be informed as soon as a response is received, therefore, this item may be removed from the Agenda. 2. Trees: JSC asks that the HRA Board advise the residents that there is no plan to replace the Eucalyptus trees. Although the trees in question are infested with beetles, effort is being made to eradicate the pest and it is hoped the trees will survive. 3. More Trees: the tree pruning on the premises is still on hold awaiting the Town of Tiburon Design Review Board's decision, and its next meeting will be in March. The Review Board had asked for a long-term plan with regard to the landscape. The Buildings & Grounds Committee may work with the landscape architect to develop such a plan for submittal to the Tiburon Design Review Board. 4. Secu ' Deposit: the majority of the tenant security deposits are held in an interest bearing CD. Please refer to pages 4 and 5 of the JSC monthly report for comparison rates on CD's at this time. These rates can change weekly. Treasurer D. Leary asked when the last time The Hilarita property had a value' inspection. Ms. Tilton advised that this was last done in 1972. In discussion, it was deemed prudent to have this procedure updated to take into account any new buildings and improvements over the years. President Lester advised that he had recently received an unsolicited offer to buy this property for $24 million. In discussing this offer with EAH, he was advised that this type of an offer occurs frequently and that such an offer should just go into the round file. The President assured all that there is no way that TEA could sell with all of the restrictions, nor is there a desire to even consider such action. 5. HUD Subsidy: the annual funding authorization for the HUD subsidy contract will be completed shortly. The new contract begins May 1, 2010.. A "Fact Sheet" on this issue was distributed here. 6. W : the annual filing for the property tax exemption for 2010-2011 has been submitted. By so doing, this will result in a property tax exemption of 90%. 7. Letters of Demand: there has been an ongoing correspondence flow with a residenUH-TEA Director regarding security deposits, request for confidential documents, the tenor of the H-TEA Board's President, and so on. Be it known that no information may be open that shows a tenants' personal information. Ms. Tilton has consulted with President Lester and on approval, replied to the resident on all matters questioned. Copies of correspondence on this matter are included in the monthly packet to all H-TEA Directors for review. President Lester asked that Cathomas Ford, HRA President, stand for the entire residents' association. The tenants need to be informed of the proper procedure in soliciting assistance on any issue, which is directly through the HRA Board of Directors B - Cherry Reilly, Property Manager, reported that: 1. Boston Post: this computer software program will be in place on March 1 st. This program will streamline all the basic residential accounting, unit transfers, and much more to aid the office in its duties. 2. IV: as reported previously, this is a new program as required by HUD. All of the tenants have been given a brochure to give them a simple and clear outline of the Employment and Income Verification System (EIV). 9.

OPEN FORUM: No Comment STAFF, BOARD AND COMMITTEE REPORTS: 1. Chair's Report No report. 2. BTLF Report - Heather Cameron See attached report 3. Library Director's report - Deborah Mazzolini The Library's copier leases expire in March this year. We are working with our current vendor to replace the copiers to take advantage of new technology. System upgrades will include public copiers that will scan free of charge and one public copier that will produce double-sided multiple copies. The workroom will get a combination color and B&W copier. These improvements are expected to cost less that the current configuration. A copy of the lease will be made available before the next meeting for review by either of our attorney Trustees. The sick leave bank that was approved by the Board is about to be tapped by one of the part time PERS employees who will be on leave for about 5 weeks. The Library attorney Gary Ragghianti is retiring from fulltime active duty. Gary has recommended Riley Herd, council for the City of Belvedere, as his replacement. Trustee Otter suggested that it would be appropriate to commend Gary for his years of service to the Library in a resolution adopted by the BTLA. A draft resolution will be prepared for review before the next meeting. 4. Financial statement for January 2010 The tax revenue borrowed by the state in a "forced loan" from local government agencies has been funded from the Prop 1A Securitization Act. The next half of the funds will be received in May. The City of Belvedere has reported that the first portion of their tax revenue for the year is up 5.5% instead of the budgeted 2%. The Library received the first portion of ERAF in the amount of $211,584. The 2nd portion will be funded toward the end of the fiscal year. ERAF is not a budgeted item since its receipt is tenuous. Total cash available at the end of January is about $1,751,000. 5. Committee Reports The Program Committee calendar is rapidly filling up for the remainder of the fiscal year. The Committee doesn't pay fees for any lecturers with the exception of museum docents. These are well- attended programs and the nominal fee is considered worthwhile. The Gently Used Art Auction will be held March 12-14 with a Library Society Preview Party on March 11th. Donations of art are tax-deductible. Automobile donations continue to occur through the Tom Price and his Volvo dealership. The only requirements for donors are: (1) the car must be drivable; and (2) have a clear title. CONSENT CALENDAR: 6. Approval of minutes of January 11, 2010 Belvedere Tiburon Library Agency February 8, 2010 Minutes Page 2 7. Approval of warrants and in house check register January 2010 A motion to approve the amended minutes of January 11 and the warrants and check register of January 2010 made by Trustee Otter and seconded by Trustee Falk passed. TRUSTEE CONSIDERATIONS 8. Building Program Expansion and EIR Update Scott Anderson, Community Development Director for the Town of Tiburon (TOT), estimates the draft EIR will be delivered to the TOT by mid/late March. The Library, Architects EHDD and Glenn Isaacson will each receive copies. After administrative review of the draft EIR, the Planning Commission (PC) will host at least one public meeting during the established 45-day public review period. After the close of the public comment period the PC meets again and if approved it will then have the EIR consultant respond to comments and prepare a final EIR. This report will go before the PC at a public meeting to discuss the merits of the project and make their recommendation to the Town Council. The Council will then decide on project approval and possibly rezoning, general and precise plan amendments. If there are any bumps in the road this process could continue into Fall. Once the EIR is approved the BTLA may request a streamlined permit review process which will make the process go faster and be less expensive. This is typically granted to public entities for their construction projects. The conceptual design (with parking and building revisions) will then go into the next phase of design development, bringing the Library closer to final drawings. At that time major donor solicitation will begin. A summary of Library Building Campaign Fast Facts and the Belvedere-Tiburon Library Strategic Plan for 2009-2013 were included in the Board packet. A recommendation to change the order of two items in the Plan was made and duly noted. 9. Expansion Information Available on the Website A copy of the Library's website page describing the Library Building Program and related documents was printed out and included in the packet. The public can review the entire process and all reports and documents written to this point. It is important that the BTLA Trustees and Foundation Directors be familiar with this information too. 10. Library Statistics: People Counter and Quarterly Statistics Comparison The results from the people counter are reported for a one-month period. On days the Library is open all day the numbers range from 400-800 per day. Children less than 3 feet tall are not counted and yet there are numerous programs throughout the week for toddlers which are well attended. There are nearly 4,000 visitors per week. There have been significant increases in circulation of up to 40,000 materials a year over the last two years. COMMUNICATIONS 11. Monthly calendar 12. Schedule of 2009 meeting dates 13.

Page 2 of 2 FCZ4 Agenda March 24, 2010 West Creek Flood Control Improvement Project A request for flood control assistance was initiated by the homeowners on Blackfield Drive whose properties are located along West Creek in the Bel Aire neighborhood of Tiburon. A number of back yards were reported to have been inundated with a few inches of water and experienced damage by water entering the structures via ground-level doors and openings. The Flood Control District hired Kamman Hydrology & Engineering Inc. (KHE) in 2005 to conduct an engineering analysis. Their report indicates that flooding of less than one foot in depth will occur in both the 25-year and 100-year flood events. We are preparing plans to construct a flood protection structure along West Creek that will provide a 100-year level of protection. Conceptual designs for properties between Via Los Altos and Tiburon Boulevard will be presented at a Flood Control Zone 4 Advisory Board meeting on Wednesday March 24th. We encourage your participation in this project as it may affect your home and property. Questions regarding the upcoming meeting can be directed to Hannah Lee at 415-507-2671 or email hlee@co.marin.ca.us.
