Energy Efficiency Measures Dear Council Members Frederickson, Their, and Kulik, Vice-Mayor O'Donnell, and Mayor Fraser: I was excited to see that the Tiburon Town Council is reviewing a number of sustainability measures at the October 4 meeting. As a long-time Tiburon resident (25 years), I urge the Council to act quickly on opting up to Deep Green followed by installing solar at the Tiburon Police station and switching streetlights to LED. Switching to Deep Green will take municipal electricity emissions to zero immediately. Adding solar panels at the police station and retrofitting LEDs will reduce the electricity load, save money, and support local renewable energy production. All of these actions will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the impacts of climate change. We all need to step up and I'm very happy to see the Town Council doing just that! I've spoken at two previous Town Council meetings in favor of Deep Green but, unfortunately, cannot be at the meeting on October 4. As such, please consider my comments above as a part of the public comments portion of agenda item AI-2. Energy Efficiency Measures.

I'm fluent in Spanish, and I'm always striving for win-win situations; which I hope to bring to the Planning Commission.

I tried to say more; but, the pdf application seemed to have limited field lengths. In addition to what I was able to write, I'd like to add that I have spent several years involved with our youth in the Leadership of the Tiburon Cub Scout Pack and Boy Scout Troop, as well as donating my time to various sports teams. Now that my Boys are older, I have more time to give back to the Town. I look forward to making a positive contribution and looking for win-win situations whenever possible. Regards, Roy racrumrine(aD_yahoo.com i Tiburon Planning Commission Roy Crumrine Application Additional Information In addition to the information provided in my application and cover email, I'd like to mention the following: I actively follow via the ARK,the local events and issues related to the town. After we purchased our house on Stewart Drive in 1993, 1 spent many hours at the library reading all the issues of the ARK prior to October 1993 to get a better understanding of the community we decided to call home. I either bought or checked out all the Landmark Society books on the history of the Town, Belvedere, and the history of the Tiburon Peninsula. Not only has this historical knowledge made me feel more connected to our town; but,over the years, it has enabled me to share the history with the young Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts,and with newer residents of the community. Over the years, I have occasionally attended Council, Design Review Board,and Planning Commission meetings. Since I submitted my application for the Planning Commission in July, I would have liked to have attended a more recent Planning Commission meeting; but, as of today(September 9t''),they have all been canceled. So,to bring myself more up to speed, I have also read the last 2 years of agendas and minutes. Throughout my career,currently Controller for Thunder(an advertising technology company),or my volunteer activities, I like to be prepared and ready to get to work. Hopefully, I won't have to use the skills; but,several years ago, I participated in one of the first CERT training classes held in town. Now that my Boys are older, I have more free time. Since the Town and Real Estate have always been strong interests of mine, I'd like to serve on the Planning Commission. As both a CPA and having previously earning a real estate license, I am familiar with both real estate and legal terminology,and codes and ordinances. I would like to think that my more than 30 years of business experience would help lead to positive outcomes,and hopefully win-win situations for all parties involved. Personally,from reading all the minutes, I like the fact that the Planning Commission has a hand in making decisions that impact the economic development of the town;on top of being involved with residential matters. Again, I think my business experience,from retail,to start-ups,to multinational corporations could be helpful to the commission.

Appointments to Town Boards and Commissions—Consider making appointments to Planning Commission and Parks, Open Space and Trails Commission (Town Clerk Town Council Minutes#19-2017 DRAFT September 19, 2017 Page 3 Stefani) Town Clerk Stefani said there are currently 5 special vacancies on Town boards and commissions: one on the Design Review Board, one on the Planning Commission and three on the Parks, Open Space and Trails Commission. She said that because only one application was received during the Design Review Board application period, staff has reopened the vacancy for applications and the Town Council will consider that appointment at a later meeting. She said the Town Council interviewed three applicants for the single Planning Commission vacancy: Daniel Amir, Roy Crumrine and Jeff Tsai; and the Town Council interviewed five applicants for the three vacancies on the Parks, Open Space and Trails Commission: Bruce King, Angela McInerney, Isaac Nikfar, Leonor Noguez, and Jim Wood. Mayor Fraser inquired about the Town's procedure for appointing individuals to serve the remainder of the existing term of office. Stefani replied that if an individual serves for less than two years after being appointed to a special vacancy, that individual is eligible for automatic reappointment. Vice Mayor O'Donnell moved to nominate Daniel Amir to the Planning Commission. The Town Council deliberated the merits of the candidates.Councilmembers Kulik and Thier agreed Jeff Tsai's extensive legal knowledge and active community life would benefit the Commission. Councilmember Fredericks suggested Daniel Amir's experience with Town history would represent a good connection between policy and community on the Commission, and seconded the Vice Mayor's nomination to appoint Daniel Amir to the Planning Commission. Mayor Fraser believed Daniel Amir had demonstrated his contributions to the community in many ways and he was impressed with the way Mr. Amir had approached neighborhood land use issues and his sense of reason. He supported Daniel Amir's nomination to the Planning Commission. MOTION: To appoint Daniel Amir to the Planning Commission. Moved: O'Donnell, seconded by Fredericks VOTE: AYES: Unanimous Councilmembers Kulik and Thier both noted that they changed their vote because they felt it was important for this appointment to be made unanimously,and encouraged the other applicants to stay involved. The Mayor then entertained nominations for the Parks, Open Space and Trails Commission. MOTION: To appoint Angela McInerney to the Parks, Open Space and Trails Commission.

Consider Financial Contribution and MOU with County — to study westbound Tiburon Boulevard widening project to relieve traffic congestion at the Highway 101 interchange Director of Public Works/Town Engineer Barnes said he was reporting on a project to investigate adding another lane at the Tiburon Boulevard/101 NB interchange. He showed one conceptual proposal of what this project could look like. Barnes said the next step is a"pre-design study", which the County of Marin has offered to do in partnership with the other affected jurisdictions.He said the cost to the Town for this study would be $62,000,and the funds would come from the Planning Area Mitigation Fund.He added that this fund is specifically for traffic problems outside of Tiburon's jurisdictional boundaries. Vice Mayor O'Donnell inquired if the Town would be obligated to be a part of the partnership for the entire reconstruction. Director Barnes said the Town would not. Mayor Fraser said he was in support of contributing money to this project,but expressed concern that the widening of the onramp by CalTrans is conditional on the CalTrans metering project moving forward, which does not have unanimous support. Mayor Fraser opened the floor for public comment. A citizen from the audience said the Town should"go for it" if it improves traffic. Christina Goebel asked how bicycles will be kept safe if there are two turn lanes onto the freeway. Director Barnes said the presentation was simply a conceptual idea, and the staff will need to determine the placement of the green bike lane.

Hawthorne Undergrounding District — Consider adoption of Mitigated Negative Declaration and approval of the Preliminary Engineer's Report (Department of Public Works) Town Council Minutes#19-2017 DRAFT September 19, 2017 Page 5 Councilmembers Thier and Kulik recused themselves. Town Manager Chanis gave a brief history of the project, including district boundaries and an overview of actions taken thus far by the proponents of the district to gather petitions and subscription deposits. Chanis also reminded the Town Council of the Town's policy on undergrounding districts, specifically the notion that residents are encouraged to pursue the formation of undergrounding districts,but 100%of the cost will be borne by the property owners in the district, and there is no assurance of the availability of other funds. The Town Manager said the Council is considering the Preliminary Engineer's Report tonight,which provides a preliminary cost estimate of total project costs,determines general benefit and the special benefits assessed to each parcel.He said staff has provided a detailed analysis of this estimate in the staff report. Chanis said the Council has several options before them tonight: to accept the Preliminary Engineer's Report and pursue the project, provide direction to staff about additional actions or information needed before further consideration, or to reject the report and abandon the project. Mayor Fraser opened the floor for public comment and the following people spoke: • Robert Chandler, district resident, spoke in opposition to the project and cost. • Adrian Gordon, St. Hilary Church and School, spoke in opposition to the project. • Peter Snoek, district resident, spoke in opposition to the project. • Bill Aicorn, district resident, spoke in opposition to the engineer's report and ask that the church be removed from the district. • Tracy Turner, district resident, spoke in support of the project but in opposition of the engineer's report. • Quentin Hills,Belvedere Tennis Club,spoke in support of undergrounding,but said the BTC could not support the project in its present form due to the engineer's report. • Jack Ryan, district resident, spoke in support of the project but in opposition of the engineer's report. • Cristen Goebel spoke in support of the project,but expressed concern over the fairness of the engineer's report, particularly if larger parcels are not included. • Joseph Bell spoke in support of the project,but said the engineer's report was unsatisfactory. • An unnamed district resident spoke in opposition to the project due to the imposed expense and loud construction noise. • Ken Wyle,district resident,spoke in support of the project but in opposition of the engineer's report. • John Lake spoke in opposition to the engineer's report. • Elena Stephens spoke in favor of the project,but requested the Council reject the engineer's report and instead fund construction plans so district residents can vote on the district based on a realistic cost estimate. Town Council Minutes #19-2017 DRAFT September 19, 2017 Page 6 • Leonor Noguez, St. Hilary Church, spoke in opposition to the engineer's report and asked that St. Hilary Church and School be removed from the district. • Father William Brown,St.Hilary Church and School,spoke in opposition to the project and report, and asked St. Hilary be removed from the district. • Barbara George,Community Congregational Church,spoke in opposition to the project and engineer's report. • Frank Mulberg, legal representative of St. Hilary Church and School and Community Congregational Church, spoke in opposition to the project and report. • Terry Hennessey, St. Hilary parishioner, spoke in opposition to the project and report, and commented that district residents who are also parishioners of one of the churches will be paying the assessment twice. • Richard Povak, Community Congregational Church, spoke in opposition to the project and commented that undergrounded utilities are more difficult to repair. • Bahram Seyedin-Noor spoke in support of the project for safety reasons,in opposition to the report due to the great disparity between assessment estimates. Mayor Fraser closed the floor for public comment. Councilmember Fredericks asked if the district proponents were involved in choosing the district engineer. Town Manager Chanis confirmed the proponents were involved. Fredericks asked if it was possible to remove the churches from the district. Town Attorney Stock replied that the churches could not be removed from the existing district if they received a special benefit from the district, but the Town could create a discount for these parcels. Fredericks asked if this project were to be abandoned,if a new district could be drawn that excludes the churches. Bob Whalen, bond counsel, said the district must include all parcels that are determined to have a special benefit by the district engineer.Fredericks then asked for confirmation that the churches have been determined to have a special benefit in this district. Mr. Whalen confirmed this point, and explained that this is why the churches must be included, but the Town could still adjust their assessments. Vice Mayor O'Donnell asked for further explanation about why the churches must be included.Mr. Whalen explained the analysis of several factors required to determine if a parcel would receive a special benefit, and in this case, it is the district engineer's opinion that the churches would receive special benefit, so they must be included in the district. O'Donnell asked if the churches still needed to be included if they received power from another source. Mr. Whalen said that would be a factor for consideration,but there are still safety,aesthetic and view factors to consider. Mayor Fraser asked if the district could be redrawn if the Town hired a new engineer. Mr. Whalen replied that redrawing the district would require the petition process to begin again, but if the Town Council Minutes 919-2017 DRAFT September 19, 2017 Page 7 proponents of the new district left out specially benefited parcels on the periphery,they would still need to be included in the district. Fredericks asked if the original petitions were signed with the awareness that costs had increased and the general benefit figure had been reduced. Chanis explained that the first petitions circulated included a cost estimate of$6.3 million and no mention of general benefit. When it was deemed necessary to obtain additional petitions, the second round of petitions included a revised cost estimate and an early estimate of the general benefit, which was a higher figure than it is now. Fredericks expressed concern with how contentious this project is. She said both sides are contesting industry standards, many people cannot afford their assessments, and there seems to be a misunderstanding of availability of government funds.Fredericks believed the report's cost estimate is credible, as projects often escalate in costs, particularly for a project so complex. She further reiterated that any contribution or expenditure from the Town would be using Tiburon taxpayer money, and could deprive the rest of the community of a broader spectrum of benefits. She felt the proponents of the district had a responsibility to build consensus in the district,and the lack of consensus in this district created a great risk of litigation and risk to Tiburon taxpayer money. She did not feel bringing this project to a vote would set a good precedent for future districts. She said her conscience to protect taxpayer money, the community discomfort and potential consequences all helped her to decide that she would vote to abandon this project. Vice Mayor O'Donnell expressed support of undergrounding districts. He said he would like to pause this discussion and work with the staff to improve the report.He believed the proponents had unrealistic expectations that the costs of this project will decrease, and said it would be better for them to expect a higher figure and then work to reduce costs as the project goes forward. O'Donnell also questioned the logic of the report in the apportionment of the general and special benefits. He did not believe the general benefit should be so low, and did not agree with the methodology used to determine special benefits for individual parcels or the churches. He agreed there was a great disparity among the assessments, and he hoped the churches could be assessed more fairly. He volunteered to work with the staff and the engineers on these issues, and he hoped the formation of a different formula could be brought back to the community for a vote. Mayor Fraser also expressed support of undergrounding districts. He agreed with the rest of the Council about the proponents' unrealistic expectations that the cost of the project would go down, but said he would like to see the engineer validate those figures to the satisfaction of the community. He was concerned about the dramatic increase in cost between estimates and the apportionment methodology.Fraser said he would consider funding a set of engineered plans so the Council and the community can be confident in the real cost of the project. He agreed with the Vice Mayor that the report's determination of general benefit was quite low,and agreed with Councilmember Fredericks that the decision to contribute to the district cannot be taken lightly as Tiburon taxpayer money is being spent. He said he would support putting the project on Town Council Minutes #19-2017 DRAFT September 19, 2017 Page 8 hold while Vice Mayor O'Donnell works with staff and the engineers to solve some of these issues with the preliminary report. Fredericks said she still felt uneasy about the risks to the Town, but she trusted her fellow councilmembers' vision to make it work. She said if something can be done to lead this project to a positive outcome, she could withhold her objection and support further exploration. Town Attorney Stock said the Council's recommendation is feasible, and this item can be brought back to the Town Council once staff is able to work with Vice Mayor O'Donnell to further refine the estimate with the assessment engineer. Town Manager Chanis confirmed staff is available to work with Vice Mayor O'Donnell at an accelerated pace. MOTION: To direct staff and Vice Mayor O'Donnell to reconsider the report based on discussions and recommendations made by the Town Council.

It provides additional funds for roadway maintenance. In the upcoming fiscal year, the predicted increase in revenues to the Town is estimated at $53,693 for FY 2017-18. These funds are anticipated to be allocated by the State in January 2018. The Road Repair and Accountability Act contains a local agency maintenance of effort (MOE) requirement that applies to funds allocated through the RMRA. The Act states that the MOE requirement is to ensure that these new roads funds do not supplant existing levels of city and county general revenue spending on streets and roads. The MOE for the receipt of RMRA funds state that a city or county must maintain general fund spending for street, road, and highway purposes at no less than average of 2009-10, 2010-11, and 2011-12 years. These figures are as reported by each city in the annual streets expenditure reports in Table 5 under"Expenditures by Source"titled"Discretionary." In making this calculation certain one-time funds may be excluded. A city or county that fails to comply in a particular year may make it up with in additional expenditures in the following year. The estimated MOE for the Town of Tiburon is $851,754. Part of the reporting requirement is to tell the California Transportation Commission what project(s) the Town will complete using these funds. ANALYSIS A Major Pothole Repair Project was included in the 2017/2018 Capital Improvement Plan in the Street Improvement Project section in the amount of$330,000. At the July 5th Town Council meeting, Council approved using these funds for the design of the 2018 Various Streets overlay .J oWN of TnwRoim PAGE :t of 2 project. At the August 6, 2017 Council meeting, Council approved a design contract for the project, in the amount of$107,820.00. The construction funding budget for the 2018 Various Streets overlay project, as reflected in the 5-year CIP, is $1.3 million. Currently, the project is funded entirely by the Street Impact Fund. Staff recommends that RMRA revenue in the amount of$53,693 be included as an additional funding source for the 2018 various streets overlay project. The effect of this increase will be to continue to improve the conditions of the Town's roadways. Specifically, funding to be received in January would be spent on the Las Lomas Lane portion of 2018 Various Streets Project construction. The 2018 Various Streets Overlay Project includes the following roadways. The design is in the early stages and costs are not known, but the $1.3 million budget will likely result in deleting one or more streets from this list. Adding the RMRA funds will help to keep all these roads on the list.

To: Mayor and Members of Town Council From: Community Development Department Subject: Consider Acceptance of a Grant Deed of Easement for Public Pedestrian Access from the Point Tiburon Bayside Condominium Association Over a Portion of its Common Area; Vicinity of Mar West Street Opposite Las Lomu Lane Reviewed By: ' BACKGROUND In January 2016, the Town entered into a written agreement with the Point Tiburon Bayside Condominium Association for the purchase of a public pedestrian easement across a portion of the Association's common area. The easement would formalize a well-travelled route through the Bayside Association's common area connecting to the Point Tiburon Plaza and Downtown destinations beyond, including the ferry terminal and bus stops. This acquisition would complete the public pedestrian connection from Centro West Street to Downtown Tiburon in this area. The purchase price was agreed upon as $15,000 and this amount was included in the budget. ANALYSIS The Agreement required the Point Tiburon Bayside Association to reconstruct the stairway before the easement was accepted by the Town. That work has now been completed and the wooden staircase has been replaced by a concrete stairway meeting current building codes. The stairway is now open to public use and has been eagerly embraced by its users. Staff would like to commend the Bayside Association, the Lyford Cove/Old Tiburon Neighborhood Association, and all others who contributed financially or otherwise to the replacement of the stairway. The proposed easement has been surveyed, title cleared, and the grant deed prepared for execution. Pursuant to provisions of the Agreement, the matter now comes to the Town Council for acceptance of the grant deed of easement and authorization for payment of the purchase price set forth in the Agreement. Consistency of the proposed acquisition with the Tiburon General Plan was established prior to the time the Town entered into the Agreement to purchase the easement in January 2016, and had been reviewed by the Planning Commission in 2015 and found consistent with the General Plan. TOWN OF TIBURON PAGE 1 OF 2 Town Council Meeting October 4,2017 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the Town Council: 1. Adopt the Resolution accepting the grant deed of easement and authorizing the Town Manager to ensure its recordation. 2. Authorize the purchase of the easement in the budgeted amount of$15,000.

This year's jury decided to go a step further and look at how well our cities, towns and the County engage with the public.;Wefirst surveyed each of the agencies to learn about their public engagement strategies and their;perceived effectiveness. We then surveyed residents of our municipalities and unincorporated areasto get a "snapshot" view of their experience with their local government's engagement. Finally, we looked at the reporting of local issues by local media. We found that public engagement in Marin takes different forms dependingon where you live. In addition, while every agency is making efforts to engage, some have more political will, more resources, and/or a more active public to make that happen. Public engagement may take many forms, but all have the goal of enabling more inclusive governance. The following report provides an overview of current public engagement throughout Marin and suggests methods of improvement for our 11 municipalities and the County. With this report, the Grand Jury hopes to illuminate a pathway to inclusive governance, inspiring both our local government and the public they serve. BACKGROUND "Government should be participatory. Public engagement enhances the government's effectiveness and improves the quality of its decisions."1 —Barack Obama Many terms describe public involvement in government decision making: community or civic engagement, community participation, and public participation. In this Report, we define public engagement (PE) as:A broad range of methods through which government agencies provide the public with More and better-information about, and meaningful opportunities to influence, government decisions. Public engagement is not new.2 However, effective public engagement calls upon agencies to go beyond minimum statutory requirements, such as the Ralph M. Brown Acta 1 Obama,Barack."'Iransparency and Opcn Government."Federal Register.21 Jan.2009 Nalbauian,.lohn."N'aulititin,Commniuiv FnablmDcmoc acN Vcw Roles for Local GovernmentVlanagers."Public A(kninistration Revieiv.November/December, 1999.. 3"Gov-54950.5 Ra1L)h M. Bros-\n Act." California Legis/a�ivelr�fnnacrtion. Public Engagement In Marin for public meetings and the California Public Records Act`' for keeping and providing public records. PE is important for local government agencies as well as the public they serve. Today, agencies throughout California are applying a variety of PE strategies and practices to address issues ranging from land use and budgeting to housing and public safety. They are discovering that successful engagement of residents in decision making can bring several benefits:5 ■ Improved agency decision-making and actions, with better impacts and outcomes ■ More community buy-in and support for agency decisions, with less contentiousness ■ Faster project implementation with less time and expense in revisiting or reversing decisions ■ Better identification of the public's values, ideas and recommendations ■ More informed residents about issues and local agencies ■ More civil discussions and decision making ■ More trust in each other and local government ■ Higher rates of community participation and leadership development' Effective PE may now be more important than ever. "Disparities in education,health, economic opportunity, and access to affordable housing and justice continue to increase, and the resources available to confront those challenges have not kept pace with expanding needs."6 Marin's municipalities and the County of Marin face increasingly significant issues needing public support for resolution, such as the lack of affordable housing,and unfunded post-retirement liabilities. Building partner-like relationships between these agencies and their communities through PE may provide the support our agencies need. Marmites want to be engaged, as noted in the County's 5 Year Business Plan for 2015-2020.7 However, a December 2016 Marin Independent Journal Editorial, favorably commenting on the County's goals for 2017, concluded by stating: The list of goals or New Year's resolutions deserved more public attention and involvement before they were approved as political marching orders, but maybe fixing that flaw will make the list for 2018.8 Local government efforts at public engagement often occur as one-time activities focused on one immediate and controversial issue. However, local governments that"embed" a capacity to regularly consider, design, use and improve their PE practices may be better able to successfully assess the need for PE in particular instances and shape the best responses, since no one set of PE strategies works for everyone. 9 Those local gft overnments often have written PE plans guiding their public engagement efforts. In Marin, Mill Valley, Novato, San Rafael, and the County have formal PE plans.(See Appendix A for definition of"PE Plan.") d"Goy°-6%'51 C tlitomia Public,Rcc.otds Act."

METHODOLOGY The Grand Jury followed the methodology outlined below. Literature Review_. We analyzed literature from respected sources in California, nationwide and - internationally to identify best practices in public engagement. These sources include the following: ■ Institute for Local Government, an affiliate of the League of California Cities, the California State Association of Counties and the California Special Districts Association ■ The Davenport Institute for Public Engagement and Civic Leadership at Pepperdine University, a co-author of reports with the Institute for Local Goverment ■ Public Agenda, a New York based nonpartisan nonprofit organization and co-author of reports with the h7stitute for Local Government and The Davenport Institute ■ National Coalition for Dialogue & Deliberation, a Pennsylvania based organization ■ International Association for Public Participation, a Colorado based international association that seeks to improve public engagement .. Public Engagement Plan Review. We reviewed public engagement plans, ordinances and resolutions in Marin and other California cities and counties. Grand Jury Report Review. We reviewed The Win Cup/Tam Ridge Residences: How Did It Colne To Pass?10 and the response. Public Engagement Information Request to Marin Agencies. We prepared a Public Engagement Information Request and distributed it to Marin's I I municipalities and the County of Marin to gather their views on public engagement opportunities. (See Appendix A: Public Engagement Information Request.) The Information Request included questions regarding the best practice strategies for implementing public engagement principles formulated by the sources listed above.1 1 SF Bay Area cities that have used such strategies and principles in public engagement plans include Oakland and Menlo Park.12 Public Eng age ment'Survey to Marin Residents. We also prepared a survey for Marin residents to gather the public's views on engagement in their municipalities and the County.

June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 4 of 61 Public Engagement In Marin DISCUSSION Using the concepts of public engagement (PE), the Grand Jury took a snapshot of 12 government agencies and the public to get an idea of not only how these agencies view their own PE efforts, but also how the public perceives these efforts. We started by surveying Marin's 11 municipalities and the County ("the agencies") in the form of an online Information Request containing questions pertaining to PE attitudes, practices and approaches. Each agency was given 21 days to respond during which time we were available to answer questions from respondents. To assess how the people of Marin feel about public engagement, we developed and disseminated two online Public Engagement Surveys designed to capture information from residents of both cities and towns and the unincorporated areas of Marin. These surveys were announced through the Marin Independent Journal, The Ark Newspaper, Marin Post,Point Reyes Light,and the private social networking service for neighborhoods,Nextdoor. As was the ease with the agencies, the surveys were open for 21 days and we were available to answer questions from respondents during that time. The questions in both surveys were identical and provided opportunities for both multiple-choice and narrative responses. It is important to remember that the people who responded to the public survey were self-selected. However, they were willing to share their thoughts to give us a window into what some of our public is thinking. Four hundred fifty-one (45 1)public responses were received and reviewed, after culling duplicates. Overview: Agency Public Engagement Information Request Responses Viewed in aggregate, Marin agencies' responses to our request (see Appendix D: Summary Agency Views of Public Engagement) showed: ■ Benefits. Agencies mostly agreed on these PE benefits: improved decision making; more community buy-in; better identification of the public's values, ideas and recommendations; more informed residents; more civil discussions; more trust; faster project implementation; and higher rates of participation. ■ A Formal PE Plan. Four of the 12 agencies reported having a plan. ■ Inclusive Planning Use. Agencies all agreed on the use of PE for these areas: parks & recreation, land use &planning, transportation & infrastructure, housing, and budgeting. ■ Transparency Strategies. Agencies all used: newsletters by email, newsletters on website, community news on website, and draft budgets online. ■ I"mproving Authentic Intent. Agencies mostly: summarized complexity, used clear and simple language, and meaningful and timely information. ■ The PE Culture. All agencies rated their culture as excellent or good in these areas: PE improves decision-making, views the public as partners, gives public full consideration, and proactively contacts and engages with community. June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 5 of 61 Public Engagement In Marin ■ Breadth of Participation. All agencies "regularly" or "sometimes": build and nurture relationships, distribute information regularly, provide timely information, and welcome community participation. ■ Informed Participation. All agencies "regularly" or"sometimes": proactively post issues on their website and use other communication platforms. ■ Accessible ,Participation. All agencies "regularly" or"sometimes": have meetings that are broadly accessible in terms of location/time/language and deliver presentations in alternative living locations for the elderly. Not surprisingly, all of the agencies are aware of the importance of public engagement, agree on its many benefits, and view themselves as having a good PE culture. Opinions varied as to what constitutes effective PE. A recurring theme in response to the Information Request was "one size does not fit all."As a result, some agencies—especially the smaller ones do not feel the need for a formal PE Plan. Instead, they are comfortable taking their cues from the communities they serve, reacting to issues as they come up and engaging mostly through their websites, newsletters, and public meetings. Others may have budgeting and other resource concerns to contend with before they can consider developing a plan. With the exception of the City of Sausalito, those with populations under 10,000 do not intend to develop any formal PE Plan at this time. However, the Grand Jury suggests that agencies do not need to start their public engagement efforts by crafting a formal PE Plan. Instead, an agency can gather their existing engagement strategies in a simple document(which we refer to as PE Guidelines), which can evolve over time with community input. The process of creating the Guidelines does not need to be expensive nor take a lot of resources. These Guidelines can also avoid the need to reinvent the wheel each time a public engagement issue arises, and provide flexibility in the event of employee retirement or turnover.1 s Elements of such Guidelines can be found in checklists and tables contained in San Luis Obispo's PublicEngagementand Noticing Manual 16 and Seattle Office for Civil Rights' Inclusive Outreach And Public Engagement Guide.17 Larger municipalities such as Novato and San Rafael, who have completed formal PE plans, encompass much larger geographic areas with greater, more diverse populations. With a larger public to serve and contend with, it makes sense for these municipalities to develop and make use of a formal PE Plan to achieve effective, meaningful, and consistent communication. Appendix E ("Platforms Used to Engage The Public")reflects some of the tools and platforms Marin's cities/towns and the County are using to disseminate information to the public. While each agency makes use of standard, expected methods of communication, such as public meetings and notices, website and email, most have also embraced what have become popular and relatively 15 Medford,Marlena."Silos Arc Good for Grain Not Public EnaaQement."Peak Democracy. lel Dec.2016. 16"Public Envy*anent And NotlunLManual."City ofSan LHiS Obispo,Nov.2015. 17 ,inclusive Outreach And Public Enna rement_Ciuide."Seattle Office f n-Civil Rights.April 2009(Rev.01/11/12).

This represents an expansion from the minimum requirements of The Brown Act, which guarantees the public's right to attend and participate in meetings of local legislative bodies. Moving beyond these requirements is an essential strategy of effective, modern day PE. Overview: Comparing Public Engagement in Marin with the San Francisco Bay Area In 2013, Public Agenda published Testing the Waters'8 and Beyond Business As Usual.19 These reports contained the results from surveys of 900 local officials and 500 leaders of civic and community-based organizations throughout California, exploring "the attitudes of California's ` local officials toward public participation in local governance." The reports concluded that, "These officials believe that the current models for including the public in local decision making fall to meet the needs of both residents and local officials."20 Although our sample size was significantly smaller(12 Marin vs. 206 Bay Area officials) than the Testing the Waters survey, we found similarities: Testing the Waters Testing the Waters Grand Jury Survey Question 206 Bay Area Respondents 12 Marin Agencies Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied 72% at least"somewhat satisfied" 75'%a at least"somewhat satisfied" are you with the level of public participation in local government decision making in your community?

June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 9 of 61 Public Engagement In Marin i Belvedere has the smallest population of all Marin cities and towns at just 2,068 residents with a median family income of$181,800. It has the highest percentage of residents over 65 years at 31.6%, and the smallest percentage of children under 5 years at just 4.6%. However, Belvedere is in the average range of families with children under 18 at 24.2%. View from the City Belvedere does not have, and does not plan on adopting, a formal PE Plan. Nor is PE a part of any one job description within the agency. When asked why they had no plans to adopt a PE Plan, Belvedere responded, "As a small city, PE processes can often be accomplished more easily and informally compared to larger cities. At this time, we feel our current PE processes garner a sufficient amount of public engagement such that formalizing a plan is not necessary at this time." As we heard from other small-scale communities in Marin, size matters when it comes to spending agency resources on developing a full-scale PE Plan and hiring PE-specific personnel. In addition, because of the very nature of their close-knit communities, municipalities like Belvedere feel that active public engagement tends to happen organically. Indeed a visit to Belvedere's website confirms that the deer issue and its follow-on study, is featured prominently on a new webpage where all reports, information, public correspondence, and a video-recorded community forum are catalogued regarding this issue.23 Views From the Residents There were no respondents to our survey to provide information or insight regarding resident views of PE efforts in Belvedere. View from the Media A long-running issue in Belvedere concerns what some residents say is an out of control deer population. With the community divided over what, if anything, to do about it, they continue grappling with solutions as the City Council works to hear public input. In August 2016 the IJ reported that, "...the council agreed the deer issue needs to be addressed, and it voted unanimously to confront community concerns by calling for a forum in which they will invite wildlife experts to participate in a panel." That this is an issue that merits debate "was evident by the turnout," said the IJ.24 Summary Since Belvedere is a very small community, the city reports no need for a formal PE Plan. Based on media reports, Belvedere residents are engaged—primarily in an on-going, issue- by-issue basis. 23" __ Cuucnt IsSUCS betoic tl.:Cite Council."Cit),oJ'Behvedere. 24 Rodriguez.Adrian."Bcl\cdcie deur issue to be subject of lorum."A11a1-iI7 Indepe»denl Joan-nal.9 Aug.2016.

Although only 16% of the residents are over 65, certainly not the highest percentage in Marin, Corte Madera has been recognized by the World Health Organization as a member of the Global Network of Age- Friendly Cities self-identifying as "Age-Friendly Corte Madera."25 Corte Madera and its neighboring city, Larkspur, often called "the Twin Cities," share a police department with San Anselmo (the Central Marin Police Authority) and is currently in discussion with Larkspur regarding merging fire departments. View from the Town Corte Madera does not have and has no plans to adopt a formal PE Plan. According to the town, "Public engagement is an expectation as a Town. We follow best practices for engaging the public and disseminating information. We also hire employees that understand the importance of this expectation." Extending outreach through webcasting, Facebook,Nextdoor, texting and mobile apps, Corte Madera has also created an effective transparency portal on their website.26 The town also regularly assesses their PE efforts for effectiveness, asking participants for feedback and advice pertaining to their PE experience.

Corte Madera is generally open with its communication. Some people are just not interested in participating. View from the Media % The road to completing Corte Madera's Tam Ridge apartment complex has been a rocky one. A March 2017 IJ editoria127 citing progress on the project stated, "There have been some important lessons learned along the way, including that it is better to make sure that the public is informed about and encouraged to engage in the decision making process than having to deal with the public fall-out.' Because of its controversial development history, this same article reported that, "The building has also reinvigorated public interest in local planning decisions, as residents have gotten a look at what can happen when they aren't paying attention."- In another development debate, plans to rebuild a major Corte Madera hotel has run up against public opposition over the paving of a pond that currently sits on the intended expansion site. After vetting the plan in what the IJ in April 2017 called "marathon meetings,"most recently one with a "heated, four-hour standoff," the issue continues to be debated.— Summary v The town reports good PE efforts and has no plans to create a formal PE Plan. y Residents who responded to our survey are generally positive, although "advance information" and "informs"were rated negatively.

Nearly 27% of the residents are families with kids under 18, and 4.5% have kids under five. The Town of Fairfax website describes Fairfax as "...an environmentally conscious community situated in the heart of central Marin County and is considered the most progressive of Marin's 11 incorporated cities."The site further states, "The Town has ordinances preventing chain stores; take-out styrofoam food packaging and plastic bags and is in the process of updating its General Plan with a goal of retaining its small town character. View from the Town Fairfax does not have a formal PE Plan, nor does it intend to create one. While Fairfax "actively engages the community for input on major land use,projects, and/or policy issues," the town finds that"different approaches are needed for different issues/projects. "As an example of rigorous, ongoing public discourse requiring time and resources, Fairfax cited, "One land use issue [that] has been in discussion for four years." After gathering community input via a community workshop and online forums, the town recently changed direction regarding plans for their Town Center.

The more controversial items on the meeting agenda are scheduled at the end of the town meetings, so you may have to stay 4 hours to be heard. I've seen instances of the town council making decisions before the public is heard... The Town of Fairfax govermnent operates in secrecy and uvith complete disregard for the interests of its citizens. There is an imperial and dismissive air to Toivn officials. They do not care at all what residents think and completely disregard viet-ns contrarp to their orvn. View from the Media The Fairfax Town Council has reacted to the undoing of a 2014 rezoning decision by proposing a new district exclusively for senior housing in hopes of building community support for the affordable senior housing project known as Victory Village. A March 2016 IJ article reported that, "Opponents to the rezoning gathered more than 1,000 signatures on a petition forcing the council to backtrack and undo the zoning change." Opposition for this latest zoning proposal has been vocal, but support for Victory Village is also being voiced. According to the IJ, "The project has the fill] support of the Marin Organizing Committee, a group of 16 civic organizations, including churches and synagogues, which has championed the cause of addressing Marin's affordable housing shortage."'0 In a related issue, a former Fairfax council member posted a letter on behalf of a concerned citizen's group to The Marin Post. The letter, addressed to the Town's mayor and council, appeared under the headline "Fairfax residents ask Town to preserve public engagement and transparency in planning decisions."s I Summary > Fairfax reports having no PE Plan with no intent to develop one. The town believes different approaches to engage the public are needed for different kinds of issues. The resident response to our survey indicates a wish for increased efforts in PE by the town. Less than half the respondents to our survey were somewhat satisfied with the town's efforts and the majority expressed the desire to become more involved. > This view was also expressed by residents in a letter addressed to the Town and subsequently posted to The Marin Post. 30 1lalstead,Richard."Fairfax tries new zoning tact:on senior housing complcx."Marin Independent Journal.6 Mar.2017. si "F uif ix i.esidcnts ask Town to reserve public engagenu nt and ti uis�uuic� ui l imin-decisions."The A4arin Post. 1 Feb. t 1 _..__.._ ....._ E _:.' l_. 2017.

The median family income is $115,360. Along with Belvedere and Sausalito, more than 21% of its residents are over 65, which gives these three cities the highest percentage of older adults in all Marin. Larkspur and Corte Madera are often referred to as the "Twin Cities," in part because of their close proximity to one another. The Twin Cities share a local community newspaper(Twin Cities Times), are currently in negotiation regarding a merger of fire departments, and have consolidated police departments with San Anselmo forming the tri-city "Central Marin Police Authority." View from the City Larkspur does not have a formal PE Plan. Engagement opportunities are made available in multiple ways beyond the public meeting, including use of tools such as Facebook, Twitter and texting. Larkspur states that they view their public as partners, and give full consideration to public input before making decisions. 'PE is an assigned duty of one or more staff members and the City of Larkspur "makes every effort to engage the public in its processes.

It must be noted,however, that given the small number of responses, these views are not necessarily representative of the public's views: I haven't used the Larkspur Web Site. I don't think I get information that I need to know[aboutj what is going on in the City Hall Meetings or general information about[what] is going on about town. Only i/1 go to the City,and ask a particular questions is when I find out what is going on about that one thing. Staff(city manager) wants to control information presented at meetings. Often will not release contribution to board meetings before the date. A recently started email neivsletter from the City Manager is excellent. June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 15 of 61 Public Engagement In Marin View from the Media In February of 2017, an IJ editorial noted that public protests prompted Larkspur to reverse its decision (which was already being implemented) to reduce traffic lanes on a heavily-traveled, short stretch of Magnolia Avenue at a cost of thousands of dollars to taxpayers. While the City approved the lane change, it did not "get much public attention until locals noticed the [rerouting] lines painted on the road." The Editorial noted this "deserved more effective front-end attention" and "That attention might have saved taxpayers $50,000, a cost that should serve as a reminder for future projects.„ 32 In January 2017, after almost a year without progress, Larkspur announced in the IJ that they were again moving on plans for a new library and community center. With a strategy involving a committee to explore funding for and cost of operating the library, city officials expected to'� receive a presentation in the spring about work done to date. Planning for the project had slowed due to changeover in key staff. Residents "have expressed that maintaining the city's small-town character is important to them” and one councilman stated, "We will arrive at the right solution when we've eliminated all the wrong ones. That's how the design process works."" However, by March 2017, it was reported "Unfortunately, city staff then and now lacked a vision of what the community needed or had any idea how to finance it. With leadership missing, altruistic community volunteers unaccustomed to compromising due to conflicting agendas will inevitably stumble about unfocused and struggle to formulate financially viable plans."3' Summary Larkspur has no formal PE Plan and no intent to develop one, although the agency does report utilizing multiple tools to engage the public. 31 With only nine responses from the public, the Grand Jury makes no inferences. A Marin IJ editorial noted one particularly difficult issue in which the town reversed a decision (already partially implemented) because of public protest. The editorial noted that in the fixture "...more effective front-end attention" could be fruitful. 32"Larkspur rescinds Magnolia lane chane."Marin Independent Join'nal. 1 Feb.2017. 33 Rodriguez,Adrian."Larkspur shu ukr renn renews focus oplan fora ,.libi iy. mununitV hub."Marin Independent Journal22 Jan.2017. 34 Spotswood,Dick."Larkspur limps alone with librar �lan."Marin Independent Journal. 25 Mar.2017. June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 16 of 61 Public Engagement In Marin According to 2010 census data, Mill Valley has a population of 13,903. This makes Mill Valley the third largest city in Marin. The median family income is $167,000. Of the 6,084 households, 30% have children under 18. Similar to San Rafael, Mill Valley shares its zip code with a number of unincorporated areas including Strawberry, Tam Valley, Almonte, Homestead Valley and Alto. View from the City Mill Valley has a formal PE Plan. Adopted in June of 2014, their Strategic Communications Plan is "...designed to identify goals and strategies to effectively communicate with community members, drive the development of internal communications policies, and improve the overall effectiveness of the City in meeting the needs of the community."35 As identified in the Communications Plan, a"Communications Group"—comprised of a Community Engagement Supervisor(newly established position as a result of the Plan), Communications Specialist (part-time contract service provider), and the Assistant to the City Manager—was established to implement communication goals. Mill Valley now has an active Community Engagement Supervisor who reports to the Assistant to the City Manager. In addition, Mill Valley has a convenient transparency portal on its recently revised website.36 With two-way communication defined as a priority, Mill Valley has been busy with many significant PE processes over the past 24 months, including: community workshops, regular email newsletter updates, liaisons with the business community, outdoor tabling and tent events, and door-to-door interactions. As a result of increased involvement of the public, more decisions are based on community support and, in one instance, such efforts "galvanized a neighborhood."

I see council members in town and then are very approachable and take time to stop and answer questions or make suggestions or provide contact information. 90%of what they do is for show and to avoid legal challenges, not because they actually want to hear any dissenting opinions. View from the Media Settlement of a lawsuit alleging failure to preserve and protect the city's recreational and emergency evacuation routes was contingent upon approval at a March 20, 2017 Mill Valley City Council meeting. The lawsuit was filed against Mill Valley's city manager in October 2016 by a former city planning commissioner and longtime trail advocate. The IJ reported that, "News of the lawsuit ignited citizens, who formed a committee to put pressure on city officials to correct what they say has been years of neglect." As a result, "The City Council in January approved a nine- point action plan to address concerns about the protection and preservation of the paths. The city has since resolved more than 10 complaints of encroachments through a crackdown in enforcement."Mill Valley's mayor was quoted as saying, "This action is an example of the Mill Valley City Council listening to the community and taking deliberate and thoughtful action to directly resolve concerns."37 * Mill Valley has taken action in responding to acts of hate and anti-Semitism in their community by adopting a resolution, "reaffirming its commitment to respect, tolerance and compassion—with a plan to appoint a `task force' committee to reinforce the effort," stated the Marin IJ in an April 18, 2017 article. The "resolution package" includes "an action plan to audit existing community programs in an effort to ensure that the city is offering services, policies and programs with the same intent and commitment to tolerance and respect."Further, "Community members were excited that the council was discussing these issues of intolerance." The task force will likely include those who live and work in Mill Valley..,34 Summary Mill Valley has a robust PE Plan and website and has made two-way communication a priority. The City has a highly-engaged public that mostly views council members favorably, but thinks issues could be communicated earlier and better. The IJ reports quick responses to high-profile citizen concerns. 37 Rodriguez,Adrian."Mill \7aIIcy settle,,steps,I u3eS and paths IaWS111t."Marin 117depe77de71 J0717-77al. 18 Mar.2017. 38 Rodriguez,Adrian.`MiII Valley council pionurtes respect and toleranceto quell hate episodes."Mcn•i77lndepe7dent Journal. 18 Apr.2017.

The median family income is $97,000/year.39 Nearly half of the city's employees live within Novato, an important issue for many Marin cities and towns where affordability is often a challenge. View from the City As the second most populous municipality in Marin, Novato has a PE Plan (dated 2015-2016) which has not been formally adopted. They also employ a Public Communications Coordinator who is specifically tasked with public participation and engagement. For Novato, "effective communication means improving public access to timely, accurate, and helpful information about the City and its services; providing a variety of easy, accessible, and meaningful ways to engage with the City; and promoting transparency in the City's decision-making process and outcomes of key citywide issues affecting the daily lives of our Novato community. ,40 The City has a history of being engaged and active in civic discussion.

More often than not it seems that the community is being "engaged"so that the City can check that box off without really caring about Citizen opinion. Would like to see more conummication and outreach in Spanish to engage Our Spanish-speaking population I would like to be able 10 provide feedback online instead of having to attend in person a meeting (at a time I usually can't attend) in order to provide feedback. The city is misleading in its very few and limited attempts at notifying the public. It's usually c?fier the fact news and only very few members of the community seem to know what's going orz. Plenty of opportunity is given, not much taken due to citizen inertia. Sometimes people who have not taken the opportunity to voice their opinions at the onset of a proposal will later become very vocal about quashing it. You can firing a horse to water. View from the Media IJ Editorials in January and November 2016 discussed the dissatisfaction of Novato residents concerning the City's decision-making process preceding installation of solar panels over the parking lot at the Hamilton pool. This led to a resident's lawsuit and increasing costs. The City apologized for not doing a better job of involving neighbors in the decision-making process—a dialogue that the IJ commented, "should have taken place long before the city installed [the panels]."41 Novato subsequently submitted an article for`publication in the IJ stating its commitment to public engagement and transparency.42 Six weeks later, the IJ commented that the City had used unclear language ("bureaucratese") in titling a City Council agenda item.43 In April 2017, the IJ complimented the City of Novato for agreeing to engage residents concerning proposals to develop three city-owned sites at Hamilton.44 Summary Many of the responses from the public echoed the issues reported in Views From the Media. n While the City of Novato has been increasingly using more communication tools, it appears that the City could better engage the public earlier on topics that are likely to be controversial. 41 "Solar panels a test for Novatos leaders."Marin Independent Journal. l4 Jan.2016.;"Is Novato legal clash worth the cost?" — — Marin Independent Journal.20 Nov.2016. 42"Novato is IeadinL,on community cnga,cntcnt and transparency."Marin Independent Journal. 14 Dec.2016. 43"Novato should h rvc del tycd FALAI tax vote."Marin Independent Journal.30 Jan.2017;"Novato,'FAM display mastery of bureauu ttese Ylarin Independent Jour)ial.31 Jan.2017. 44,,A little time\a ould be well invested in Hamilton."Marin Independent Journal.3 April 2017.

Ross is the second smallest municipality in Marin. It has by far the smallest percentage of renter-occupied housing units at 14%, indicating the vast majority of residents own their own homes. Ross has the largest percentage of families with kids under 18 at 43% and, along with Belvedere, has the highest percentage of residents with bachelor's degrees in Marin at 82%. With the national average at 22%, Ross is clearly a highly-educated community. View from the Town Ross also does not have and does not plan to adopt a formal PE Plan. The rationale for not adopting a plan mostly revolves around engagement as it currently happens in this very small town: Towns and cities that are small-scaled in size and resources generally conduct business in a somewhat more organic fashion that naturally relies 071 active citizen engagement to accomplish the public's business. Even if there is no adopted Plan, towns become acutely aware of issues that matter to their community, the stakeholders and others who tare impacted, and the formal and informal methodologies to inform, consult, and/or engage. As such,public engagement principles and practices become naturally embedded into operations. Much of the PE that goes on in Ross is centered on land use decisions. As such, Ross fostered a process conducive to dialogue and collaborative problem solving that offered early opportunity for feedback regarding creation of their Advisory Design Review group and procedure. Other recent PE processes conducted in Ross include extensive community engagement regarding improvement to Winship Bridge (one public meeting was held at the bridge itself), and a survey about short- term rentals that generated significantly more public participation and comment than previous Town Council meetings or public workshops. View froin the Residents There were four respondents to our survey and no comments regarding resident views of PE efforts in Ross. View from the Media At a meeting of the town council in July of last year, Ross, like other Marin municipalities, addressed the issue of whether short-term rentals should be operating unregulated in their town. At the time, with no regulations or definitions on residential use, the town's municipal code was unclear regarding permitted use. But unlike other cities or towns, Ross—which operates on a much smaller scale—has no hotels so has not collected transient occupancy taxes. The discussion started in January 2015, but according to the IJ, "The council put off making any formal decision due to a lack of rental activity."Nevertheless, the Ross planning manager stated, "There is merit in fine-tuning some of our definitions." And not surprisingly, "lZesidents are on both sides of the issue." Plans for a future meeting on the issue was announced.`' a'Rodriguez,Adrian."Ross considers short-tum rental regulations."Marin Independent Journal. 12 July 2016. June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 21 of 61 Public Engagement In Marin 7� During a "two-hour, impassioned debate" at a packed Town Hall in Ross in December of 2016, officials decided to go forward to restore a town-owned house instead of tearing it down to make way for a park designed for preschoolers. Residents on both sides of the issue attended and even though there was "overwhelming support for the park", the IJ reported that the Town Council voted 4-1 to restore the house, which could bring the town $10,000 to 520,000 annually in rental income. It was suggested that, "the council form a committee of parents that could study options for the conceived playground elsewhere. The council felt that might be the best approach.""' Summary Ross considers itself too small for a formal PE Plan, addressing and reacting to issues as necessary. s The Grand Jury did not receive enough responses from residents to make any relevant observations. Ross may be small,but issues can be seen as "big" when it comes to public engagement. 46 Rodriguez,Adrian."Ross nature park nixed to restore workforce house."Marin Independent Journal.9 Dec.2016.

As with other areas in Marin,parts of San Anselmo are unincorporated, including Sleepy Hollow and an area at the end of San Francisco Boulevard. Six percent of San Anselmo's population is less than 5 years old and 13.5% are over 65. View from the Town San Anselmo does not currently have a PE Plan,but says they intend to design a "Public Engagement Guide" this year, formalizing and instituting a "guide for use by staff that will be modified as new methods of reaching the public are created, discovered or changed." San, Anselmo stated, "We want people to become involved, ask questions, provide feedback and be part of the decision-making process. We feel that making the effort to get the community involved is integral to our work." The town already makes use of many modern platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, webcasting, texting, and Nextdoor as well as workshops and surveys. However, San Anselmo's responses to our Information Request indicate that these tools are not necessarily used to collect community feedback regarding their PE processes. Views From the Residents There were 19 responses from San Anselmo residents. By the numbers: Meeting Attendance 57.9%have attended at least one meeting annually Engagement Interest 78.9% want to be engaged more PE Satisfaction 52.6% are at least"somewhat satisfied"by efforts Detailed PE Issues Full consideration, advance information,and clear language are ranked worst PE Tool Awareness Websitc, email,and surveys are most familiar Some of their responses to our invitation to make general comments are below: At all levels staff attempts citizen input to significant and small issues effecting[sicJ residents. San Anselmo refuses to do anything about the flooding other than purchase expensive buildings and let them sit there. They do nothing about cleaning the creek and spend all of our money on consuhants saying in S years they will do something. `Language for town council meetings are dense, not accessible. By the time an item reaches Town Council it seems a decision has already been made and the input at the meeting is disregarded. It's a two way street: citizens must make an appropriate effort to stay informed. June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 23 of 61 Public Engagernew In IINIarin View from the Media Flooding and how to deal with it continues to be a major concern in Ross Valley. Over 100 people showed up to a "scoping session"held in February of this year to consider the environmental impacts of a major flood prevention program that residents say, "could undermine their livelihood," according the Marin U. Several San Anseli no merchants at the meeting maintained that some of the [plan's] "structural modifications" would mean "the possible loss and relocation of beloved businesses." One resident stated, "County officials should be more clear in their presentations and that when addressing a building,rather than numbering it as one, two or three, it should be called by the business it represents." Other residents voiced anxieties over the plan that ranged from concern for coho and steelhcad salmon populations to the safety and effectiveness of detention basins. The county capital planning and project manager has "heard the fl-ustration" and "staff has been working to keep up the pace on communicating and making progress. We are trying to take this as a watershed community wide approach and everyone's participation is going to be really important."47 Summary San Anselmo has no PE Plan to guide them yet. Community feedback could be better prioritized. Public wants to be engaged more. Clear and advance in=formation would help to achieve this. The media echoes what the public says. 4' Rodrieiiez.Adrian-"Debate_continues over Ross Valley flood plan."Marin I.J. 17 Feb.2017.

According to the 2010 census, San Rafael has a population of 57,713 which makes it the largest municipality in Marin. The median family income is $96,000. Although parts of Santa Venetia, Lucas Valley, Marinwood and other unincorporated areas have a San Rafael address and zip code,residents of these areas responded to our survey as residents of unincorporated Marin. If all residents with either 94901 or 94903 zip codes were included in San Rafael census data, the total would be over 70,000 or almost 25% of Marin's total population. San Rafael is nearly 71%white with the largest Hispanic or Latino population in Marin at about 30%, or 17,000 people as of 2010. View from the City The City of San Rafael has the largest population of any municipality in Marin. As such, in January of 2015 they adopted a formal PE Plan: the Connnunity Engag;ementAction Plan.48 To get there, though, they first conducted a survey and held community workshops. Goals included demystifying local government, engaging earlier, and enhancing their technological tools. San Rafael's plan calls for considering the hiring of a Public Information Officer or Communications Coordinator. The city states that "...our commitment to robust community engagement continues—we recognize the value that [such] engagement brings to civic discourse and decision-making." San Rafael's newly-adopted Community Engagement Action Plan was put to use right away. Key tenets from this plan were developed into a specific communications plan 49 that addressed ongoing efforts to rebuild two fire stations and establish a new downtown public safety center. Members of the public and key stakeholder groups were involved from the outset and information has been made available via email,Nextdoor, YouTube, and open house events at the fire stations. The Grand Jury commends San Rafael for receiving the Davenport Institute for Public Engagement and Civic Leadership's highest award (Platinum) for public engagement in 2016.

Some of their responses are noted below: With the drop in daily newspaper readership we don't really know what's on the city council agenda, though I suppose you can go to the city's website and it should be there. A lot of announcements about what civic meetings are going on where and when are posted by neighbors on the nextdoor.com website. Council demonstrates openness to community input. Staff have worked well with Gerstle Park neighborhood on many topics.I observe a sense ofpride in the work staff do. They sometimes reach out but do not listen. The process seems designed to support decisions already made. Feel used and manipulated Seems decisions take forever to be made...also how the place works seems stacked against the regular people. Only those who know what's what in the civil domain can get things done. But I'm trying to speak out. Need to create more awareness of communication channels. View from the Media The IJ has commended San Rafael's outreach inviting residents to become involved in fire station design 51 and public input for the redesign of Albert Park.52 Marin Ws February 2016 editorial had this to say about the fire station project: Son Rafael is holding the door-ivide open for the ptthlic to get involved in the design of fire stations those taxpa.vers are payingfor. Instead o/7ceeping all of those decisions limited to the agendas of the Citi• Council and its hoards, the city has posted architects'drai,vings of proposed changes online and held open houses at the sites before [Wednesday's meeting of the cite Design Review Board. The process is an invitation to local residents to be part of the:process. It was noted that instead of relegating public outreach to the background since the tax was approved, the City has made an effort to keep residents engaged in the decision making. 51 "City 1-laII seeks hubli.c comment on San Rafacl fire sotions."Murhi 15 Feb.2016.;"Ciri I Dill -seeks public comment on$an Rafael fisc stations."Marin independent Journal. 15 Feb.2016. 52 Rodriguez,Adrian."San Rafacl's Albert Park redesign near timil hurdles."Marin Indehendent Jom-nal.20 March 2017. June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 26 of 61 Public Engagement In Morin After two years and multiple public meetings, San Rafael's City Council is expected to consider an upgrade to Albert Park. Gathering over 60 responses suggesting improvements for the park, the City determined that the play area was in need of an update. After hearing support for the project, and in concert with a citizen's group's efforts toward park cleanups, the City Council allocated $250,000 in finding. If the commission approves the plan, construction could begin by the end of the year. Summary San Rafael has a PE Plan, created in part with information from the community, that is utilized for effective PE. There is already a high level of engagement by the public, but interest in engagement is even higher. The public is calling on the City to listen more. Media reports good efforts on the part of the City and its residents,resulting in action. June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 27 of 61 Pathic Engageinew h?Mai-in Sausalito has a population of 7,061 and a median family income of$180,900. Owner-occupied and renter-occupied homes are nearly equal at 50.8% and 49.2% respectively. Twenty-one percent of Sausalito's population is over 65 and 4.3% are under 5. There are over 400 houseboats in Sausalito 53 (many of which are outside the city limits) and although the resident population is relatively small, weekends and vacation times bring thousands of tourists to the town, impacting the community in multiple ways including traffic, commerce and bicycle safety issues. View from the City Although currently without a formal PE Plan, Sausalito says it intends to adopt one. According to the town, "Sausalito is proud to have a highly engaged population of well-educated and active community members. "They describe their PE process as "...on a project-by-project basis [where] individual community outreach plans are created to ensure that the public is provided with more and better information and is afforded all opportunities to influence public decisions." An example of this approach is the ongoing Ferry Landing project where "The public engagement process has resulted in the City challenging the originally-proposed design in order to tailor the project appropriately." Since early 2015, when the City Council approved a public review process regarding this project, Sausalito has provided many opportunities to engage their residents. These included holding a number of stakeholder meetings; two public hearings; the installation of an exhibit in City Hall; and an on-the-water buoy demonstration to give the public a visual representation of the dimensions of the project. The City states, "Although the project is still ongoing(currently pending a lawsuit), the public,engagement process has resulted in the City challenging the originally-proposed design in order to tailor the project appropriately." According to the official Nextdoor page of the City of Sausalito,54 the city librarian now also serves as Director of Communications for the City of Sausalito. 3 Carber,Kristine."Floatine through life Sausalito houseboat community ill shoe offits.. of a I ind dwellings oil Sunday." -- SFGate.4 Oct.2003. 54 ,City ol'Sausal ito."Nestdoor.Accessed 28 Apr.2017 June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 28 of 61 Public Engagement In Marin Views from the Residents There were five respondents to our survey and one comment regarding resident views of PE efforts in Sausalito: The history of Sausalito contains repeated episodes of citizens becoming engaged only after becoming awar e of a decision (or near decision), with staff'maintaining that "we held xxx hearings and surveys months (or years) ergo"to justi&the action. City agendas and packets come out on the Friday afternoon (late) before the next Tuesday's meeting, leaving little time to review or mount participation. Important issues have been decided late at night, or at midday during the work week, or during summer/winter vacation periods. Often the same people, or people with special interests, are appointed to cornuriittees/comrnissions. Staff and Council have long made overturesand efforts to include "stakeholders": ie nonresident tourists, bicyclists, development interests, non-resident property and business owners-whose voices and interests can h�ach the decision malting process. View from the Media A Superior Court judge has ruled against the Golden Gate Bridge district in its attempt to get parts of a Sausalito lawsuit over a planned $11 million ferry terminal thrown out." Filing the lawsuit last September, Sausalito alleged the bridge district is violating a 1995 lease agreement that requires city approval for"major alterations"to the ferry landing, hl 2014 the district proposed that a new dock replace the current, aging float, "which will not meet future federal rules for accessibility." Residents claimed that the proposed larger design "didn't fit the waterfront character of the small town and would only encourage more people—including tourists on bicycles to crowd the area. Others said the new dock was a needed safety improvement.""The district is expected to challenge the legal grounds of the case on May 4, when another hearing will take place. In December 2016 Sausalito became the first city in Marin to approve an age-friendly action plan aimed at seniors. The city's Age-Friendly Task Force crafted the plan with the hope that sonic elements could be included in the general plan. They began meeting in April 2013 and created a survey "to determine how Sausalito would be accessible and inclusive for its older residents." Along with transportation and housing, "social participation, respect, social inclusion, civic participation, employment, communication, information along with community support, health services and safety are other topics addressed in the action plan."56 Summary Sausalito intends to adopt a PE Plan. Currently, PE is conducted on a project-by-project basis. The Grand Jury did not receive enough responses from residents to make any relevant observations. `` Sausalito is attempting to put the city's interests first in the face of change.

Twenty-one percent of its residents are over 65 and one-third are families with children under 18. View from the Town Tiburon does not have and has no plans to adopt a formal PE Plan since, "At this point, a demonstrated need has not been established."With knowledge of"principles of effective public relations and interrelationships with community groups and agencies,private businesses and firms, and other levels of government" as a stated essential qualification of the town manager, Tiburon has incorporated elements of PE into at least one job description.57 One of Tiburon's most active community issues is that of residential building design and review. A significant PE process recently completed in Tiburon was their Building and Planning Forum, a public discussion led by an outside facilitator. The forum provided an opportunity for residents, contractors and architects to hear"a brief review from staff on the Planning and Building process in Tiburon and then have an opportunity to ask questions." This resulted in the town making several immediate changes to their processes and studying several other potential future changes. Views from the Residents There were two respondents to our survey and no comments regarding resident views of PE efforts in Tiburon. View from the Media The Marin IJ reported in April that a neighborhood group in Tiburon has proposed removing a grove of 42 trees along Tiburon Boulevard, most of them on toxon property.58 They say the trees are a fire and safety hazard and have offered to pay for their removal. Some opponents, however, think that an underlying motive of the plan is to open up bay views for homes on the hillside. In a similar attempt to get the trees removed in 1996, "Residents tried to get the Town Council to weigh in,but they failed to produce a plan that would be paid for by the homeowners." The current proposal for the grove was to be aired at an upcoming Parks, Open Space and Trails Commission meeting at Tiburon's Town Hall. More than 50 letters and petitions on both sides have been submitted to the town. * A plan to improve bicycle routes is expected to find its way to Tiburon's Planning Commission and Town Council by June. "The plan is part of a 5200,000 grant-funded push by the Transportation Authority of Marin. The goal is to develop multimodal-friendly communities countywide that improve safety -- and to identify gaps in bicycle and pedestrian connectivity with neighboring towns and cities," said the Marin IJ in April.'`' While the plan is aimed at making the roads and paths safe for everyone, acconnnnodating children is a specific goal. But some who live on a particular stretch of what is part of The Bay Trail are concerned that the plan will encourage even more bikers, who "run through frequently in droves...and [the road] has become dangerous," 5 7 ,,FoNvii Manager."Town of Tiburon.

June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 31 of 61 Public Engagetnenl In Marin Marin is the fourth-smallest county in California by land area. It has a population of 252,409 with a median family income of$120,000. Census data from 2010 shows 72.8% of Marin's population is white, 15.5% Hispanic or Latino, 5.4% Asian and 2.6% Black or African American. Like many California cities and counties, the Hispanic or Latino population has increased over the years, going from 4.2% in 1980 to 15.5% in 2010. Age distribution is consistent with average demographics in Marin towns and cities with: ■ Children under 5 = 5.5% ■ Age 5 to 17 = 15.2% ■ Age 18 to 64 = 62.6% • Over 65 = 16.7% According to an article in the Huffington Post, "An estimated 54 percent of adults 25 and older in Marin have a bachelor's degree and 22.5 percent have an advanced degree, more than in any other California county and among the highest rates nationwide, according to new survey data from the U.S. Census Bureau."60 The average number of adults in the U.S. with at least a bachelor's degree is 22%. View from the County, In January of 2012 Marin County adopted the County of Marin Public Communications Plan.61 With a clear vision, mission and strategy, the plan speaks to specific strategies and actions. As stated on the first page, "The County's approach to public communications is grounded in its mission statement and input from Board of Supervisor members, community partners and staff." The County's mission statement, which appears both on the County website and in their Plan, is "...to provide excellent services that support healthy, safe and sustainable communities; preserve Marin's unique environmental heritage; and encourage meaningful participation in the governance of the County by all."An ongoing commitment to public engagement is also stated in the County of Marin 5 Year Business Plan 2015-2020, which among other things focuses on being a responsive government.62 Clearly, PE is important to and actively practiced by our county representatives and employees. However, some of the County's PE processes differ in scope from the individual cities and towns discussed above. Because of the size of their constituency, PE efforts are executed and spread out among supervisorial'districts, departments, and agencies embedded within Marin's government. Therefore, Marin County discourages posting information in more than one location on their website. As a`strategy that may effectively serve a single city or town, the County feels doing so only serves to sow confusion when navigating their intricate site. Likewise the question of whether or not(and how) an agency publishes a regular newsletter is more complicated for the County. With many different departments as well as the Board of Supervisors and their respective districts reporting to the public, multiple newsletters get curated and distributed, most of them online. The County commented that, "Above all, a resident's level of involvement in a County decision- making process greatly depends on that resident's personal investment in that topic or issue."In 60 Jason,Will.

The County cited its recent engagement process around medical cannabis dispensary bids as very successful. "Using targeted neighborhood outreach via Nextdoor.com combined with traditional outreach tactics (media outreach, mailers, etc.),residents in those potentially affected communities have been very engaged in the various public meetings held around the County and have been submitting relevant public feedback through the appropriate comment channels (letter and email)." Views from the Residents A total of 451 residents of both the incorporated and unincorporated areas of the County responded to our survey.

This singles out Unincorporated Marin for all the bad or trial regulation instead of working with the Incorporated areas to make sure everyone is served consistently. The time of the Board of Supervisor meetings is challenging for those of us who work!Please consider making them at a later time during the day. Thank you! 1 get most oCounty updates on Nextdoor, and appreciate the notifications and information. Ifl didn't subscribe to the Marin Y doubt that 1 would have much real information on actions render consideration by the county. Perhaps better outreach to the public is in order. Three minutes,before the Board ofSrtpervisors is inadequate. There should be extensive workshops in all locations of the County, not just in southern Marin County. County'is in a tough place. They are the City Council to the unincorporated areas but for those who have a Citi• Council...outreach from the County is not as vital. June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 33 of 61 Public Engagement In Marin View from the Media m Since the IJ's December 2016 article urging the County to obtain more public involvement in setting annual goals, recent articles note that the County has begun public meetings with residents in the Ross Valley Flood Control District63 and launched an Open Data Portal.64 In addition, two County supervisors called for public input and discussion regarding the effects of climate change on Marin by announcing three public meetings on the subject. "There will be no progress without public engagement," stated the authors in an April 2017 submission to the Mai-in Independent .1our I,a1.6" Officials again had their say in the IJ in March, stating, "We believe now is the time to step up and get more fully engaged, right here, where we live. Civic engagement. At the local level. Serving our neighborhoods and cities and towns. Attending a city or town council meeting or a Board of Supervisors meeting may not be glamorous but it matters. Or, attend a local flood control zone meeting -you can learn a lot about what we're doing and what needs to be done to protect our future. Call or email your elected officials we want to hear from you and we can do out-jobs better 11-you're in touch with us."66 Summary Marin County has both a formal PE Plan and a S Year Business Plan that focus on public communication and government response, respectively. Engagement efforts are relatively more complex at the county level. Less than half of survey respondents reported having attended at least one meeting per year but over half say they want to be engaged more. PE satisfaction is low. Reports in the IJ show the County is making efforts to encourage the public to engage more and is creating opportunity to do so. 63 Rojas,Raul "Public paoicipauon all im po�ant )an.of flood-control planning."Marin independent Journal. 15 Feb.2017. 64"Mann launches online ti-me of public Mari."Marin Independent Journal.20 Feb.2017. 6?

June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 34 of 61 Public En cigement In Marin Sharing Our Data As stated in our public PE surveys, "The Marin County Civil Grand Jury is seeking your input. The information provided will be treated confidentially by the Grand Jury for its research and report: Your name and email will not be shared with anyone, and your responses will not be attributed to you." With the rise of the Open Data Movement (examples include: Data.gov, the Data Foundation, OpenGov, Marin County's Open Data Portal, and the City of Sausalito's Budget Transparency Tool), we wanted other organizations—including future grand juries- to be able to leverage our public data. Therefore, we are sharing all the public survey responses (removing all personal identification) in two spreadsheets (one for Unincorporated Marin and one for the towns and cities of Marin) online here: httpsHgoo.gl/hdWGf8. Jule 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 35 of 61 Public Engagenaenl In Marin CONCLUSION Public engagement is at the heart of inclusive governance. It should be the responsibility of each agency to give full consideration to public input before making decisions that affect the community-at-large. The Grand Jury agrees with agency leaders that public engagement need not be a "one size fits all" strategy; it should vary based on the needs of the community. Whatever engagement approach an agency chooses, we believe that simply having good intentions to engage is not sufficient—each agency should formally state its public engagement plan or guidelines. A published statement(in the form of a municipal resolution, for example) would ensure that the staff, the public, and community-based organizations work to solve common problems using transparent processes. In fact, the process of developing and publishing such a statement is another opportunity to understand the needs of the community. Agencies should also collaborate with conununity-based organizations (CBOs)tohelp reach traditionally disenfranchised groups. Such groups are often unaware of issues likely to affect them until last-minute decision-making. Collaboration with civic leaders and CBOs can increase both the amount and quality of public engagement. Consistent public engagement is a goal that requires agency commitment and adaptation. Public engagement is not something done to simply"calm the public"over controversial issues. PE must be used early and effectively to build trust, achieve community buy-in and support for agency decisions with less contentiousness. The PE Plan or Guidelines should be revisited often to ensure that it continues to "work" for everyone. Otherwise,PE becomes just another box that an agency must check-off rather than a beneficial experience for all involved. A fundamental premise of engaging the community is providing clear, consistent, easily available modes of communication. Many of the residents responding to our survey reported being unaware of available resources for obtaining and communicating information. Over a quarter of respondents reported not knowing whether their local government agencies provided any avenues at all to engage the public. It is important that the public understands the availability of these avenues and whether agencies are doing what is needed to make it known that such avenues exist. Equally important isthe participation of the people of Marin in the public engagement dialogue. Residents frequently become involved in their community when a specific issue arises that is of particular interest or consequence to them personally. When that issue is resolved, how active or concerned or even interested do they remain in other areas of their community? At its most effective, public engagement is a path to inclusive governance. June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 36 of 61 Public En cWement In Marin FINDINGS F1. Having a formal'PE Plan or PE Guidelines in place helps to foster better and faster community involvement. F2. Not everyone conducts PE in the same way. F3. Agencies' perception of the need for PE is in response to a controversy, not an ongoing process. F4. Smaller municipalities do not necessarily have the need, the budget or the will to develop a formal plan. F5. Larger municipalities recognize the need for a formal PE Plan. F6. Some agencies are close to having a PE Plan; it wouldn't take too much effort to formalize one or to develop PE Guidelines. F7. All Marin agencies agree that PE is important, and all are engaged to some degree. F8. There is a disconnect between how agencies rate their PE efforts and how the public views their efforts. F9. Most agencies believe they are doing a good job of PE. F10. Marinites want to be engaged more. F l l. The public perceives a need for more and better engagement opportunities, including follow-up. F12. Only a few municipalities have an employee dedicated to PE. F13. Building relationships between civic leaders and community-based organizations contributes to the inclusion of traditionally disenfranchised groups, increasing the amount and quality of PE—and providing support for the agencies. F14. Marin agencies are using various and multiple modes of technology to engage the public, but the public isn't necessarily aware of this. F15. Moving beyond the minimum requirements of The Brown Act is essential for modern day PE. F16. Marin agencies and their public are statistically comparable to the Bay Area in terms of PE satisfaction and involvement levels. FIT PE is a two-way street, requiring vigilance on the part of the public as well as the agencies who serve them. June 15, 2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 37 of 61 Public EngageMent h7 Marin RECOMMENDATIONS R1. Each agency without a formal PE Plan should develop either a PE Plan or PE Guidelines tailored to the needs of their public and publish the results. R2. Each agency should obtain input from the public in the planning and design or update of its plan/guidelines. R3. Agency managers should regularly share their PE Plans and "lessons learned"with their counterparts in other Marin agencies. R4. Each agency should provide early and ample opportunity for PE in the form of proactive engagement in order to ensure that the public is aware of all their PE opportunities. R5. Post-engagement, each agency should follow up with the public, informing them of the results of projects and issues. R6. Each agency should create an easy-to-find area on their website dedicated to describing current community issues and explaining how the public can get involved. R7. Each agency should make PE a required responsibility of at least one staff person and publicize that responsibility. R8. Each agency should offer regular PE professional development to its staff. R9. Each agency should develop meaningful and ongoing partnerships with their local community-based organizations. R10. Each agency should include on all written communications the social media platforms they use. R11. Each agency should communicate and emphasize to the public the importance of participation in PE. R12. Each agency should publish an annual report describing the effectiveness of their PE efforts.

Date: Signed: Number of pages attached:_ 1 ... a. _ Office of the Town Manager Town of Tiburon October 4, 2017 The Honorable Kelly Simmons Mr. Jay Hamilton-Roth, Foreperson Judge of the Marin County Superior Marin County Civil Grand Jury Court 3501 Civic Center Drive, Room 275 Post Office Box 4988 San Rafael, CA 94903 San Rafael, CA 94913-4988 Re: Response to Grand Jury Report Public Engagement in MarinA Pathway to Inclusive Government Dear Honorable Judge Simmons and Mr. Hamilton-Roth: This letter explains in detail the Town of Tiburon's response to the Civil Grand Jury Report dated June 15, 2017. The Report directs the Town to respond to Recommendations Nos. 1-12. RECOMMENDATIONS and RESOPONSES Recommendation 1. Each agency without a formal PE Plan should develop either a PE Plan or PE Guidelines tailored to the needs of their public and publish the results. Town's Response: This recommendation will not be implemented because it is not warranted or is not reasonable. As stated in the Grand Jury report, the Town does not currently have a formal Public Engagement Plan. CA Penal Code 933.05(b)(3) allows a response indicating a recommendation requires further analysis, which in Tiburon's case will occur at some point in the future with regard to the development of a formal Public Engagement Plan, or set of guidelines. However, PEN 933.05(b)(3) also requires the analysis be conducted within 6 months from the publication of the grand jury report, or before December 15, 2017. The analysis of this issue will likely not occur within that timeframe. Recommendation2. Each agency should obtain input from the public in the planning and design or update of its plan/guidelines. Town's Response: This recommendation will not be implemented because it is not warranted or is not reasonable. As stated in the Grand Jury report, the Town does not currently have a formal Public Engagement Plan. However, if at some point the Town chooses to develop a PE Plan, or set of guidelines, as discussed in the response to Recommendation 1,public input will be a key component of its development. 1 Recommendation 3. Agency managers should regularly share their PE Plans and "lessons learned" with their counterparts in other Marin agencies. Town's Response: This recommendation has already been implemented. Managers from all Marin municipalities meet on a monthly basis to discuss a wide variety of topics, including experiences in engaging the public on a range of issues important to our communities. Recommendation 4. Each agency should provide early and ample opportunity for PE in the form of proactive engagement in order to ensure that the public is aware of all their PE opportunities. Town's Response: This recommendation has already been implemented. Although Tiburon does not have a formal Public Engagement Plan, or set of guidelines, staff strives to provide residents ample opportunity to participate in the decision-making process and provide input and feedback on a broad range of issues. Recommendation 5. Post-engagement, each agency should follow up with the public, informing them of the results of projects and issues. Town's Response: This recommendation will not be implemented because it is not warranted or is not reasonable. As stated in the Grand Jury report, the Town does not currently have a formal Public Engagement Plan. However, if at some point the Town chooses to develop a PE Plan, or set of guidelines, as discussed in the response to Recommendation 1, developing and implementing strategies to provide feedback and post-engagement communication to the public will be considered. Recommendation 6. Each agency should create an easy-to-find area on their website dedicated to describing current community issues and explaining how the public can get involved. Town's Response: This recommendation has already been implemented. The homepage of Town's website includes a prominent section called `Tiburon News'. Here, residents will find comprehensive information on current issues and projects, as well as information on how to get involved or voice their opinions on these matters. Recommendation 7. Each agency should make PE a required responsibility of at least one staff person and publicize that responsibility. Town's Response: This recommendation has already been implemented. As stated in the grand jury report(page 30), the Town has incorporated elements of Public Engagement as one of the essential functions in the job description for Town Manager. Recommendation 8. Each agency should offer regular PE professional development to its staff. Town's Response: This recommendation has already been implemented The Town currently provides funding in every department budget for training and/or professional development, and we encourage staff to seek diverse training opportunities that will allow them to improve the level of service we offer our residents. In addition, we strive to provide staff targeted information on customer service and public engagement. This includes resources available through the Institute for Local Government, City Management Foundation and International City/County Management Association. Recommendation 9. Each agency should develop meaningful and ongoing partnerships with their local community-based organizations. Town's Response: This recommendation has already been implemented. Town elected officials and staff foster and maintain strong relationships, and actively participate on numerous issues and projects with a variety of community based organizations. These include the Tiburon Peninsula Chamber of Commerce, Rotary Club(s), Tiburon Peninsula Foundation, Belvedere Community Foundation, The Foundation for Reed Schools, Tiburon Peninsula Soccer Club, Tiburon Green Team, Tiburon Open Space, Belvedere-Tiburon Landmarks Society, Belvedere-Tiburon Library Foundation, Tiburon Romberg Center, Richardson Bay Audubon and Destination Tiburon In addition to these organizations, Town elected officials and staff engage with numerous Homeowners Associations on a range of issues. Recommendation 10. Each agency should include on all written communications the social media platforms they use. Town's Response: This recommendation will not be implemented because it is not warranted or is not reasonable. The Town does not currently actively utilize social media platforms. However, on August 16, 2017, the Tiburon Town Council adopted a comprehensive Social Media Policy, which provides a framework for the use of social media platforms. If in the future, the Town begins to use social media platforms, staff will include this information on all written communication. Recommendation 11 . Each agency should communicate and emphasize to the public the importance of participation in PE. Town's Response: This recommendation has already been implemented. As stated previously, the Town does not currently have a formal Public Engagement Plan. However, staff and elected/appointed Town officials are committed to engaging our residents to the greatest extent possible. This engagement occurs both formally, through extensive outreach and noticing on individual issues as they arise, and informally, by meeting with and engaging residents on a variety of issues every day. Recommendation 12. Each agency should publish an annual report describing the effectiveness of their PE. Town's Response: This recommendation will not be implemented because it is not warranted, or is not reasonable. As stated in the Grand Jury report, the Town does not currently have a formal Public Engagement Plan. However, if at some point the Town chooses to develop a Public Engagement Plan, or set of guidelines, as discussed in the response to Recommendation 1, consideration will be given to requiring an annual report as part of that process. The Tiburon Town Council reviewed and approved this response on October 4, 2017, at a duly noticed and agendized public meeting. If you have further questions on this matter, please do not hesitate to call.

The vacancy has been formally announced at a Town Council meeting, advertised for in the Ark, Tib Talk, on the Town of Tiburon website and in posted notices at the Library and Town Hall. Staff accepted applications until July 14, and the Town Council interviewed the only applicant(Stephen Wanat) on July 19. Given the timing of this vacancy and the application period during the early summer, when many Tiburon residents are travelling, staff became aware that perhaps not all interested parties may have been able to submit a timely application for this vacancy. For that reason, staff reopened the application period and accepted applications until September 28. Five applications have been received for this vacancy: Stephen Wanat (interviewed 7/19), Suzanne Kim (int. 9/12), Shara Coletta (int. 10/4), Karen Ripenburg (int. 10/4), and Leonor Noguez. Ms. Noguez was part of a recent recruitment for the Parks, Open Space and Trails Commission, and therefore, will not be required to re-interview for this position before the Town Council (Tiburon Town Council Resolution No. 16-2007 [Appointments Procedure]). RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Town Council: 1. Consider making appointment(s) to Design Review Board; or 2. Continue the item and direct staff to continue to accept applications and schedule interviews for the vacancies at an upcoming Council meeting.

I am a retired urban planner and have experience in development, environmental issues and traffic issues. I think I could contribute to the decision making process that the Town Council is involved in. I have taught urban planning and architecture at university level and have worked for large and small firms and as a consultant in the US and overseas. As a retired professional I would have the time to study the issues before the Council. I will be out of town in May until the 19th and would be available for an interview anytime after that. Yours truly, Stephen Wana 1811 Mar West Street Tiburon Phone: 415.435.1651 1-71 TOWN OF TIBURON Town Council Meeting October 4, 2017 1505 Tiburon Boulevard F Tiburon, CA 94920 Agenda Item: STAFF REPORT To: Mayor and Members of the Town Council From: Department of Public Works Subject: Consideration of Projects to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions and/or Reduce Town Energy Expenditures. Reviewed By: K. F BACKGROUND The Town of Tiburon understands climate change has the potential to significantly affect Tiburon's residents and businesses, and recognizes local governments can play a role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions to help mitigate the potential impacts of climate change. In 2011, the Town Council adopted the Town of Tiburon Climate Action Plan (CAP), that identified potential strategies the town government can take to reduce greenhouse gas emissions related to town operations. The CAP is attached as Exhibit I In this report, staff analyzes four projects identified in the CAP that, if implemented, would reduce greenhouse gas emissions related to Town operations. They include: 1. Electric Vehicle Charging Station installation. 2. Photovoltaic solar array located at the Police Station 3. Retrofitting cobra head streetlights to LED 4. Deep Green energy purchases through Marin Clean Energy ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS In February 2015, staff brought to Council for consideration a mid-year budget amendment totaling $25,000 for installation of an Electric Vehicle (EV) charging station at Lyford/Tiburon Boulevard Parking Lot (Lyford lot). The proposed charging station was dual port and would charge two vehicles simultaneously. Council decided not to fund the charging station due to the estimated on-going costs of electricity and maintenance. At the 2017 Council Retreat, councilmembers expressed interest in revisiting the idea of installing EV charging stations on town owned property. Accordingly, staff has developed updated information, and received an updated cost proposal, for the Lyford lot project. The cost proposal and associated schematic diagram are attached as Exhibit 2. This location is the least expensive and most practical location for a charging station in any public parking lot owned by the Town. TOWN of TIBURON PAGE I OF 6 Town Council -Mectino October 4, 2017 In addition to the updated information mentioned above, there has also been a change in the American Disability Act (ADA) standards regarding access to EV charging stations since Council considered this project in 2015. The updated standards include new requirements related to path of travel, and require one charging station be ADA van accessible. Incorporating these new requirements into the design for the I.,yford lot would result in the loss of five open parking spaces to create two parking spaces with EV charging stations. Regarding cost, due to inflation and the new ADA requirements, the total cost to construct the project is now estimated at $30,500. After installation, the ongoing fixed costs to maintain the charger (2 ports) is estimated at $2.19 per day ($1.53 per day charge from Chargepoint and a $0.66 per day charge from PG&E), a total of about $800 per year. Table I below shows the total estimated annual subsidy for various charging costs and average hours used. The amounts listed in unshaded cells represent the estimated annual subsidy the Town would pay in those scenarios, while the amounts in the shaded cells represent the estimated netamou-nt the-Town-would receive annually-in-those-scenarios.--- TABLE cenarios.--TABLE l: Estimated Annual Subsidy for EV Chargers Average _ Charge for Use Hours Use per Day per $1.00/hr $1.50/hr $2.00/hr $0.25/KwH $0.30/KwH head 1 $1,223.86 $895.36 $566.86 $676.36 $435.46 2 $1,626.82 $969.82 $312.82 $531.82 $50.02 3 $2,029.78 $1,044.28 $58.78 $387.28 4 $2,432.74 $1,118.74 $242.74 3 � �� 5 $2,835.70 $1,193.20 , $98.20 � k ' MM dv R 6 $3,238.66 $1,267.66a a�� c}MA 7 $3,641.62 $1,342.12 8 $4,044.58 $1,416.58 �MR ,. :.. Note that for a plug-in hybrid, both $1.00/hour and $0.25/KwH (the lowest cost options) are currently more expensive than gasoline. There is a price point where the Town could lose customers and may have limited use and therefore, no environmental benefit. If no one uses the charging stations, the Town would still have fixed charges of about$800/year. -- --- -It isdifficultto quantify the-environmental benefits from the project as-there is little information- - - on industry averages, and future use of the charger(s) would likely be dependent on the subsidy provided by the Town. Staff recommends not proceeding with this project at this time. SOLAR PANELS ON THE POLICE STATION TOWN OF TIBURON PAGE 2 OF 6 Town Council 'Meetin Ocwher 4,2017 Two solar providers have provided a total of four scenarios for solar power installations at the Police station. Two of these options include solar on the Police Station Roof, however, staff has identified several issues with placing solar power on the Police Station roof, including: 1. The roofing material on the Police Station is very brittle, no longer produced, and is the subject of a class action lawsuit. While we are not experiencing problems with the current roof, placing a solar array on the roof could cause problems in the future. 2. The size of the roof limits the solar array to a size smaller than needed for optimal offset of electricity use. Two options were received for a carport type solar array in front of the Police Station, which are attached as Exhibits 3 and 4. Both options have the following advantages: 1. They produce over twice the electricity compared to a rooftop system, covering an estimated 91% of the annual cost of electricity for the Police Station. 2. A simple payback of eleven years compared to 15 years for the rooftop array. 3. They do not impact the Police Station roof. 4. They will provide shade and rain protection for the Police Vehicles parked underneath. The difference between the two options is aesthetics: 1. The lower cost option (Exhibit 3) is estimated at about $229,275. The look is industrial using a cantilevered T, made out of rectangular, round, or oval metal profiles. This cost includes painting and waterproofing the structure to act as a rain cover for the police vehicle area. 2. The higher cost option (Exhibit 4) is estimated at about $252,872. It is a cantilevered metal structure as well, but was designed for the look of the Police Station and is bolted together. This option is also waterproof The metal is powder coated, which would be an additional cost for the lower cost option. Depending on the option selected, the project would break even in ten to eleven years, and generate $844K to $868K in cost savings over 30 years. We have also attached as Exhibit 5, a schematic diagram depicting the approximate size of the proposed array in relation to the existing police station and parking lot. The proposals for the carport options came from Cooperative Community Energy (CCE) CCE is a member-owned business cooperative, comprised of individuals and organizations (including governments) that want to power their homes and businesses with solar energy. As a buyers' cooperative, they are a non-profit member-benefit business organization. CCE has established direct vendor relationships with manufacturers in the solar industry and uses its aggregated purchasing power to get discounted prices, passing the savings along to it members. CCE provides design services, project management and performs an inspection at system commissioning to ensure proper installation. CCE does not perform installations of solar equipment. CCE has developed a network of solar contractors to perform the installation services for projects that they design and for which CCF, provides the PV equipment. CCE was started in 2001 and currently has over 500 members, including municipalities. Tiburon became a member in 2004 when CCE designed the solar power system at Town Hall_ TOWN OF TIBURON PAGE 3 OF 6 Town Council Meering October 4,2017 This Police Station solar project was included as placeholder in the FY 2017-18 CIP,with the funding source identified as General Fund Infrastructure & Facility Replacement Reserves. The current balance of this reserve fund is estimated at $615,000. No actual dollar funding was allocated in the approved FY 2017-18 budget since costs were not yet known. Given the options outlined above and the relatively early state of design, staff recommends allocating $260,000 for the project, the cost of the more expensive option with a slight contingency. If Council approves this solar parking structure project and provides funding, staff will enter into a contract with CCE for the design, and work with CCE to create a construction contract. That construction contract will be brought back to Council for approval. LED STREETLIGHT CONVERSION The Town of Tiburon has 129 cobrahead streetlight fixtures throughout the Town that could be converted to LED. A map showing the approximate location of the existing lights is attached as Exhibit 6. Assuming that the Town would replace the existing lights with lights of similar intensity, the change out would be the following: • 116 of the 129 fixtures are currently 70OW HPS Cobra and would be converted to 24W LED • 10 of the 129 fixtures are currently 100W HPS Cobra and would be converted to 38W LED • 3 of the 129 fixtures are currently 20OW HPS Cobra and would be converted to 88W LED There are per fixture rebates currently available from PG&E for this conversion. After rebate, the cost of converting all of these streetlights is estimated at $24,728. The cost proposal for this project is attached as Exhibit 7. This would result in a savings of about 23,000 KWh per year and $5,500 per year in electrical costs. This is about a 4.5-year payback. Changing streetlights can be controversial and there are several options for light color and intensity. If Council approves this project and provides funding, staff will have DC electric change three to four streetlights along Mar West near the Tiburon Peninsula Club and collect feedback from Council and the public. After considering the feedback, staff will seek final --- approval from Council-,-and then enter into a minor public works contract with-DC-Electric to- - - -- - - complete the work. Staff recommends allocating $30,000 to this project to cover the contract costs stated above plus costs for testing and contingency. Funding would for this project would come from the State Gas Tax Reserve Fund, which has an estimated current balance of$1.4M. MARIN CLEAN ENERGY DEEP GREEN PROGRAM TOWN OF TIBURON PAGE 4 OF 6 Town Council Mectino October 4,2017 Marin was the first county in California to establish a community choice aggregation (CCA) program under AB 117 legislation passed in 2002. Marin Clean Energy (MCE) is a public agency overseen by a board of elected local officials and owned by its ratepayers. Since establishment in 2010, it has expanded to serve more than 175,000 residents and businesses in Marin and Napa Counties and the Cities of Richmond, Benicia, El Cerrito, San Pablo, Walnut Creek and Lafayette. Following in MCE's footsteps, other CCA programs are launching across the state of California with the objective of increasing renewable energy supply and fostering energy efficiency.Pursuant to the CCA enabling legislation, all electricity customers within MCE's service area are automatically enrolled in MCE. Those wishing to stay with PG&E are required to affirmatively opt out. MCE is responsible for procuring power while PG&E remains responsible for delivery of power to customers' homes or businesses, for infrastructure maintenance, and for billing. From the outset, MCE has offered 50 percent ("Light Green") and 100 percent ("Deep Green") renewable energy options. Most MCE customers were originally enrolled in the "Light Green" energy program. The Light Green program provides at least 50 percent renewable energy from sources such as solar, wind, bioenergy, geothermal and small hydropower. As an alternative, customers may upgrade to the "Deep Green" program, which is 100 percent renewable energy currently consisting of solar and wind. It is important to note since customers all receive power through a central electric grid, an individual's purchase of green energy does not necessarily mean he or she is buying electrons directly from a known renewable source. Rather, the individual's purchase through MCE causes that amount of renewable energy to be added to the grid, displacing an equivalent demand for fossil fuel-based energy. The Town is currently enrolled in the Light Green program with Marin Clean Energy (MCE), which means the electricity for all government operations in Town are from 50%renewable energy sources. If the Town enrolled in Deep Green the electricity for Town operated buildings would be from 100% renewable sources. Switching to Deep Green power through MCE would cost the Town an estimated additional $3,245 per year based on the Town's actual electrical use over 12 months (See communication from NICE attached as Exhibit 8). This would result in an emission reduction of 49 metric Tons of CO2 per year, the equivalent of taking about 10.4 cars from the roadway, or 2.1 million lbs. of CO2 over 20 years. ANALYSIS Staff notes that the Town adopted a Climate Action Plan in 2011, which looked at a number of technologies and their potential benefit for reducing greenhouse gases. Technology has changed since the adoption of the plan and so the direct comparisons in the plan cannot be used today. For instance, in the 2011 Plan Deep Green resulted in 61.7 metric tons of GHG reductions, today it is 49 metric tons. In the 2011 report, the energy produced by solar on the Police Station was estimated at 18,557 kWh per year, in the plan presented above it is 74,118 kWh per year. Further complicating any analysis is that there is an interplay between the alternatives. For example, if the Town decides on switching to Deep Green, then all the electrical power the Town buys would be from renewable sources. Therefore, no other measure would offset additional TOWN OF TIBURON PAGE 5 OF 6 Town Council \lectina Octobcr 4,2017 greenhouse gases since all the electricity used by the Town would be 100% renewable and not generate any greenhouse gases. Another way toanalyze information to determine which alternative is "best", is to assess which approach provides the greatest reduction in greenhouse gas per dollar spent. Using this method, the time frame under consideration has a significant effect on the analysis. For instance, if the goal was to lower greenhouse gas emissions for one year, certainly the lowest cost option is Deep Green which would only cost $3,245 for that year. However, the picture changes over a longer timeframe such as 20 or 30 years. Over a longer time frame some options do not cost money—they save money. For example, over a 20-year time frame the LED Streetlight Conversion will result in an estimated $85,000 net savings, and over a 30-year time frame the Solar Array on the Police Station will result in an estimated $844,000 net savings. Given these savings, there is a fiscal advantage to completing the LED streetlight project and the Police Station solar project even if the Town decides to go Deep Green. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that Council: 1. Not approve installation of an EV Charging Station at this time and direct staff to continue evaluating options for a future project to install EV Charging Stations. 2. Approve a budget amendment in the amount of$30,000 to fund a capital improvement project to convert all cobra head streetlights to LED. Funding to come from the State Gas Tax Reserve Fund. 3. Approve a budget amendment in the amount of$260,000 to fund the capital improvement project for a solar parking shade structure at the Police Station. Funding to come from the Infrastructure and Facility Replacement Reserve Fund. 4. Authorize staff to convert all Town electric utility accounts with NICE to Deep Green.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose of the Climate Action Plan Specifically, this Plan does the following: The Town of Tiburon understands that climate change has the potential to • Summarizes the various regulations at the federal, state, and regional levels. significantly affect Tiburon's residents and businesses, as well as other communities • Incorporates the Town's 2005 Greenhouse Gas Emission Inventory, which around the world.The Town also recognizes that local governments can play a identified sources of greenhouse gas emissions generated by both the strong role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating the potential community and the Town's government operations. impacts of climate change. • Estimates how these emissions may change over time and establishes a target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 15% below 2005 levels by 2020. The purpose of this Climate Action Plan, which is advisory in nature, is to compile • Provides natural system, energy use, transportation, land use, green existing and potential strategies (i.e., actions, projects, and programs) that the purchasing,waste and water use strategies necessary to minimize Tiburon's Town's government operations and the community can take to address climate impacts on climate change and meet the established greenhouse gas change. It provides a brief background on what climate change is and its potential emissions reduction target. impacts, but focuses on the efforts Tiburon can take to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate, to the extent feasible at the local level, the potential impacts of climate change. Through actions outlined in this plan, such as increasing energy efficiency in buildings, encouraging less dependence on the automobile, and using clean, renewable energy sources, the community can experience lower energy bills, improved air quality, reduced emissions, and an enhanced quality of life. The Town's preparation of a 2005 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory and this Climate Action b Plan are the beginning of an ongoing planning process that includes assessing, planning, mitigating and adapting to climate change. lovvn of 'ibuon Climate:,C,;r t F-1„n 1.2 Relationship to the General Plan Many of the goals, policies and programs of the Tiburon General Plan 2020 support the vision for a sustainable community that minimizes its impact on the environment.

Town of "iburon Ci mate,`�c'rn Plan 1.5 Regulation of Climate Change — Federal, State and Regional Levels Federal Climate Policy Currently,there is no federal legislation mandating comprehensive greenhouse gas emission reporting or reduction in the United States. Efforts, however, are underway in Congress to develop and enact climate and energy legislation.The U.S. House of Representatives passed a GHG emissions cap-and-trade bill,Waxman-Markey, in June 2009.The U.S. Senate considered, but failed to pass,various cap-and-trade bills in r 2009 and 2010, Absent congressional action, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) has used t a its rulemaking authority under the Clean Air Act to begin to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. In 2009,the EPA made an "endangerment finding"that GHGs threaten the public health and welfare of the American people.'This finding provided the statutory prerequisite for EPA regulation of GHG emissions from motor vehicles and State Climate Policy has led to a number of GHG regulations for stationary sources. In May 2010,the EPA issued a"tailoring" rule that enables the agency to control GHG emissions from the nation's largest GHG sources, including California produces roughly 1.4 percent of the world's and 6.2 percent of the total U.S. g g power plants, refineries, cement production greenhouse gases (GHG). The State of California has taken the lead in setting specific facilities, industrial manufacturers and solid waste landfills,when these facilities are newly constructed or substantially modified.The EPA reports that its GHG permitting targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the burning of fossil fuels in both requirements will address 70% of the national GHG emissions from stationary sources.'

GHG reductions to land use. In 2007, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) conducted an emissions inventory for the state to identify emissions levels in 1990 Assembly Bill 1493 Pavley, 2002. Requires the California Air Resources Board that figure 427 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent. The inventory (CARB) to develop and adopt regulations that achieve the maximum feasible revealed that transportation was the largest single sector (35% of the state's total reduction of greenhouse gasses from vehicles primarily used for non-commercial 1990 emissions), followed by industrial emissions (24%), imported electricity transportation by January 2005, In 2009, CARB adopted final regulations that are (14%), in-state electricity generation (11%), residential use (7%), agriculture (5%), expected to reduce GHG emissions from California passenger vehicles by about 22 and commercial use (3%).6 percent in 2012 and about 30 percent in 2016. Preliminary estimates indicate that California's 2020 emission projections could be Senate Bill 1771 Sher,2000. Requires the California Energy Commission (CEC)to prepare 600 million tons of CO2e if no actions are taken to reduce GHG.

In December 2008, CARB adopted a Scoping Plan that outlines the actions required for California to reach Assembly Bill 32 Nunez&Pavley,2006.Also known as The Global Warming Solutions its 2020 emission target.The actions include a broad set of clean energy, clean Act of 2006, institutes a mandatory limit on greenhouse gas pollution and requires transportation, and efficiency standards. a reduction in emissions in California to 1990 levels by the year 2020.The bill also directs the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to establish a mandatory 6 http://www.arb.ca.gov/newsrel/nrl206D7.htm,accessed 1/1/10. reporting system to track and monitor emission levels and requires CARB to develop various compliance options and enforcement mechanisms. 9 In 2009, CARB identified and implemented nine discrete early action measures those resources is the "ecological footprint." It can be calculated for individuals, including regulations affecting landfills, motor vehicle fuels, refrigerants in cars, regions, countries, or the entire earth and is expressed as the number of global tire pressure, port operations and consumer products.Additional reduction acres (acres with world average biological productivity) that it takes to support measures to meet the 2020 target will be adopted in 2011one person.

All eleven Marin cities and towns,the Marin County Community Development Agency,the Transportation Authority of Marin,and the Marin Municipal Water District are members.The Marin General Services Authority is the joint powers authority with fiscal responsibility for the Partnership. One of MCEP's first projects was to work with ICLEI—Local Governments for u Sustainability, a nonprofit organization, to develop greenhouse gas emissions inventories for the partner jurisdictions. With Bay Area Air Quality Management � � District grant funding, MCEP also worked on programs related to reducing energy use in municipal buildings, establishing a green purchasing collaborative, reducing energy " y use in residential and commercial buildings, reducing emissions from private and R municipal vehicles, and reducing energy use and emissions from waste. ' , In 2009, MCEP developed a green building strategic plan and green building policies which resulted in the Marin Green BERST model ordinance. The Marin Community x Foundation provided funding for this effort, as well as funds to develop climate action plans for six partner jurisdictions. Partner members have agreed to use their adopted climate action plans to identify mutual measures to reduce community-wide greenhouse gas emissions and develop policies and programs to support priority measures. The Town has worked closely with the Marin Climate and Energy Partnership b, to complete this climate action plan, and to implement a coordinated approach to local and regional emissions reduction targets and climate action planning goals. 2. TIBURON'S GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS 2.1 Tiburon's Profile Located on a peninsula in Marin County approximately seven miles north of the Golden �� Y Gate Bridge,Tiburon is a small town with a land area of 4.5 square miles and an estimated current population of 8,962.1 Primarily a residential community of single- family homes,Tiburon has a relative) of land devoted to multi-family � . y small percentage e g y development and commercial uses.There are two commercial areas that provide p necessary goods and services for residents, as well as public and private schools for grades K-8, a post office, a library, police and fire stations, and a Town Hall. WithN f, abundant parks and open space, and both public and private recreational facilities, j there are many recreational opportunities within town. Although some residents work in Tiburon, a majority commute to jobs in San Francisco, elsewhere in Marin County, and other locations outside Marin County. i xry Tiburon Boulevard, a state highway maintained by Caltrans, runs along the length ofn the peninsula and connects to Highway 101.As the principal roadway on a peninsula, most vehicle trips in Tiburon require some segment to be driven on this roadway. Walking or biking are viable ways to get around the flatter areas of town, especially in the neighborhoods located close to schools and commercial areas.There is one Class 1 multi-use path that runs along the Richardson Bay shoreline to the downtown area, where it becomes a striped bicycle lane for a short segment. Public transit is limited within Tiburon, with two bus routes serving Tiburon Boulevard primarily during morning and evening commute periods. Ferry service is located in the downtown and provides a convenient way for residents to commute to San Francisco. 9 2010 U.S.Census,Table P1 12, lav,in of 'ib„r;n .,..mate;'SCM.)

Transportation emissions are the result of diesel and gasoline combustion in vehicles traveling on local roads and Tiburon Boulevard. Electricity and natural gas The inventory analyzes four primary sectors of community emissions: residential, use in the Residential sector emitted 22,515 metric tons CO2e, representing 42.4% of commercial, transportation, and waste. Residential and commercial emissions total emissions.The Commercial/Industrial sector,the third greatest source of 2005 come primarily from the on-site combustion of natural gas and the off-site emissions, generated 5,036 metric tons CO2e, or 9.5% of the total.The remaining 4% generation of electricity for heating, cooling, lighting, cooking, and the operation (2,138 metric tons) are the estimated future methane emissions that will result from the of appliances and electrical devices.Transportation emissions result from the decomposition of waste that was generated by the Tiburon community during 2005. combustion of diesel and gasoline on roadways within the Town of Tiburon. Waste emissions come from the decomposition of waste generated by residents and businesses in landfills outside the Town limits. waste 4.0% Government operations emissions are categorized according to six primary sectors: \ /f buildings; streetlights and park lighting;water delivery facilities such as irrigation Residential d 42.4% systems; vehicle fleet, including police and public works vehicles; government-generated solid waste, including public trash cans and street sweepings; and employee commute.

It is necessary to rethink what has traditionally been regarded as The JPA supports the collection and processing of green waste and food waste to create garbage and treat all materials as valued resources instead of items to discard. This requires electricity from methane gas.The waste is processed in anaerobic digesters for soil shifting consumption patterns,more carefully managing purchases,and maximizing the reuse amendments and the production of biogas.Biogas is the gas produced by anaerobic of materials at the end of their useful life. digestion of organic matter and consists of 60-80% methane(natural gas), 30-40%carbon dioxide,and other trace gases such as hydrogen sulfide,ammonia and hydrogen.The The Town of Tiburon is a member of the Marin Hazardous and Solid Waste Joint Powers predominance of methane means it can be used as a fuel source.

We hope that you will consider all of these options with the State target to reduce GHG emissions by 40% by 2030 and the severe impacts of climate change in mind. One of the options that we understand you will be reviewing is opting up to 100% greenhouse gas free, 100% renewable electricity. As you know, we've been working, via an Environmental Forum of Marin project, for almost a year to encourage all jurisdictions in Marin to opt up. As of July 1, 2017, ten (10) of the municipalities in Marin, and the County of Marin, are purchasing 100% clean electricity via MCE's Deep Green product. The opt up decision taken by seven (7)jurisdictions in 2017 has resulted in an additional annual GHG reduction of 4,048 MTCO2, or 8,905,600 lbs. of CO2. We urge the Town of Tiburon to opt up to Deep Green to make the final annual GHG reduction 4,096 MTCO2, or 9,011,200 Ibs. of CO2. The chart below shows each jurisdiction's contribution to this reduction. Marin County Annual GHG Reduction - Deep Green July 2017 500 1,000 1,500 2,000 2,500 3,000 3,500 4,000 4,500 Corte Madera IN Larkspur Novato San Rafael RRoss Rll County of Marin 0 Mill Valley M Tiburon Note: Belvedere, Fairfax, San Anselmo and Sausalito were Deep Green customers prior to 2017 and are not included in the above chart. The percent of MCE accounts enrolled in the Deep Green program rose by 36.8% between March and August of 2017. We are thrilled that so many electricity customers are recognizing the importance of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. See graph below. We still have a long way to go to reach State targets for GHG reduction but your leadership will help to drive change in the Town of Tiburon.
