I am interested primarily in serving on the Planning Commission due to my deep background and experience in the world of real estate (mostly commercial but also residential), and strong desire to help maintain and/or improve the wonderful and unique qualities of Tiburon. Many of these qualities, which have inspired and drawn so many of us here to raise our families and make new connections, are affected and/or influenced by the Town's land use regulations. I spent a lot time studying the Tiburon Zoning Ordinance when we rebuilt our home here five years ago, and respect the ideas and vision contained therein. I believe in adhering to its guidance, and making common sense amendments if and when they are sensible, supported by a majority of the Town's residents and elected/appointed leaders, and aim to strengthen and create greater, healthier, and more fluid connections with and across our community.

S F q A11�D EPER�EIiCGIggk , I've lived in the Bay Area since 1998, and moved to Tiburon 6 years ago with my husband and two young daughters who are now in 151 and 41h grade at Reed/Bel Aire. Professionally, I've spent 13 years at Jones Lang LaSalle, one of the world's largest commercial real estate firms. I am currently a Senior Vice President at JLL advising real estate owners/investors such aspensionfunds, corporations, private developers, institutional advisors, lenders, etc. During this time, I've dealt with land use and zoning issues between owners and various Bay Area counties and cities. I believe the combination of my professional background, my direct experience building a new home in Tiburon, and my strong interest in city planning and zoning, real estate, and smart design will help me provide a thoughtful perspective on the issues that come before the Planning Commission. I continue to serve on the board of my local homeowners association (5 years) with an eye toward improving our local neighborhood for its residents, and look forward to having a positive impact on our greater Tiburon community working alongside the Town Council via the Planning Commission.

Town Special Event—Consider fund allocation to a"l'iburon holiday festival and closure of Ark Row in December 2017 (Department of Administrative Services) Town Manager Chanis said the Town's prominent holiday event is the annual tree lighting festival, sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce. He said staff and the Chamber are working together this year to expand this event into a"Festival of Lights", which will integrate the tree-lighting festival Town Council Minutes#21-2017 DRAFT Octobei•18, 2017 Page 2 into a weekend event with more holiday lighting around the downtown area, and the closure of Ark Row for a festival. He asked the Council to consider this request, and consider authorizing a$5,000 expenditure to help offset the cost of the event. Mayor Fraser opened the floor for public comment. There was none. The Council praised the project and thanked the Chamber of Commerce and Town staff for proposing a unique holiday event for the community. MOTION: Approve the Special Event Permit and allocate an additional $5,000 toward the festival. Moved: Fredericks, seconded by O'Donnell VOTE: AYES: Unanimous AI-2. Bicycle,Pedestrian and Automobile Education Safety Training Program—Consider adoption of education report and safety implementation plan for bicycle,pedestrian and automobile safety (Department of Public Works) Associate Engineer Lashkevich introduced the report. He said the Town Council directed the Parks, Open Space and Trails Commission to develop an ongoing and sustainable training program and community education program focused on bicycle, pedestrian and driver safety. Councilmember Thier said this report was part of a vision to improve the safety of everyone who lives,works and plays in Tiburon. She said the POST subcommittee worked with the community to develop a sustainable program and implementation for bicycle, pedestrian and automobile safety. Lashkevich gave an overview of the implementation plan, and highlighted the new"Safety Corner" on the Town's website. He said the Town Council had allocated funds toward safety outreach this year, and reviewed several projects those funds can be used for: self-service bike repair stations or speed monitoring signs. Mayor Fraser asked who will be responsible for implementation. Town Manager Chanis said items will fall into different departments and any projects with requests for funding or significant budgetary impact will be brought to the Council for approval.Chanis added the Council is only being asked to accept the report,and individual implementation items will be brought back to the Council as necessary. Vice Mayor O'Donnell asked how the data collected by speed signs is utilized. Chanis said the data gives the Town an understanding of driver behavior and would be helpful on the Old Rail Trail because the Town does receive complaints about bicyclist speed. O'Donnell inquired about a bicycle lane on Tiburon Boulevard. He said that given the speed on Tiburon Boulevard, bicyclists are safer on the Old Rail Trail, and expressed concern about advertising the boulevard as the way bicyclists should traverse to downtown because it is not a safe Town Council Minutes #21-2017 DRAFT Octobei-18, 2017 Page 3 environment for them. He believed this safety issue deserves more consideration. Fredericks agreed with the Vice Mayor,and said the Council needs to find a balance with making the boulevard safer for the people that use still it. Kulik added that bike lanes were discussed extensively during his time on the Plamling Commission, and it was determined that Tiburon Boulevard was not a favorable place for one. Director of Community Development Anderson said bike lanes on Tiburon Boulevard are included in the list of improvements to consider with the intention to make it clear which path to use based on specific use, i.e. fast cyclists on Tiburon Boulevard and casual bike riders on the Old Rail Trail. Councilmember Their added the bike lanes were included because cyclists are already using the boulevard, and the improvements are meant to make that existing behavior safer. Mayor Fraser opened the floor for public comment. Kathy McLeod agreed Tiburon Boulevard is dangerous for bicyclists, and supported the proposed projects. She also spoke in favor of increasing bicycle education. Angela McInerney praised the report, and said she would like to see the Town, the Police Department and the schools all work together on bicycle safety education and implementation. Vice Mayor O'Donnell said he supported the plan, but asked for more consideration to be given to Tiburon Boulevard. He said the connections between Hwy 101, Strawberry and Tiburon were unsafe, especially for children going to afterschool recreation programs in Strawberry. He said making it possible to ride bicycles to and from Strawberry would have enormous safety value for Tiburon residents. Mayor Fraser asked if the Parks, Open Space and Trails Commission could review the Vice Mayor's suggestion and return to the Council with a recommendation. Town Manager Chanis agreed, and said staff had recently met with the County of Marin to discuss signage and the County of Marin's version of a bicycle and pedestrian plan will soon be released for draft review. MOTION: To accept the report and implementation plan. Moved: Fredericks, seconded by Thier VOTE: AYES: Unanimous PUBLIC HEARINGS PH-1. Tiburon Tourism Business Improvement District Dissolution—Consider amendments to the Tiburon Municipal Code to disestablish the Tiburon Tourism Business Improvement District—Introduction and first reading of ordinance Town.Manager Chains said the Town created the Tiburon Tourism Business Improvement District in Town Council Minutes 921-2017 DRAFT Octobel-18, 201- Page 4 2007, and gave some historical background on the district,the creation of Destination Tiburon, and said the lodging establishments had recently expressed interest in dissolving the district due to staffing changes. Chanis said the Council took the first step in disestablishing the TTBID at its last meeting by adopting a resolution of intent. however, the hotels have since had a change of heart, and Destination Tiburon has hired a staff member. He said the lodging establishments are now asking that the Town Council not adopt the proposed ordinance. Mayor Fraser opened the floor for public comment. There was none. MOTION: To not adopt the proposed ordinance, and direct staff to return to the Council with proper actions to authorize the TTBID assessment. Moved: Fredericks, seconded by O'Donnell VOTE: AYES: Unanimous PH-2. Appeal of Encroachment Permit— Consider appeal of denial of an Encroachment Permit for a fence within the public right-of-way at 31 Apollo Road (Department of Public Works) Address: 31 Apollo Road Assessor Parcel No.: 034-262-31 Owner: Richard Greenberg Town Manager Chanis said Richard Greenberg submitted an application for an encroachment permit to legalize a portion of replaced fence in the public right-of-way. He said staff could not find records that indicated the original fence was legally permitted, and therefore, the application was denied. Chanis also gave the Council background on the property:the Building Division had approved plans for work to be performed on the property, but the plans stated the existing fence was to remain unaltered. The unpermitted fence replacement, including the portion in the right-of-way, was discovered during the final inspection, and therefore, the Building Official did not issue an occupancy permit. So as to,not further delay transfer of ownership of the property, the Town Manager authorized the Building Official to issue a temporary occupancy permit for the property, based on assurances from the real estate agent that the new owner, Mr. Greenberg, would be made fully aware that the portion of the fence in the right-of-way would likely need to be removed. Richard Greenberg,owner, said he and his family were new to Tiburon,and were not made aware of the situation. He said he knew there had been a problem with obtaining the occupancy permit, but knew nothing of the problems with the fence being in the right-of-way. He said he is only asking the Council for understanding that he inherited this situation with no prior knowledge. He expressed disappointment for losing a large portion of the yard his family thought they were purchasing. Councilmember Kulik asked Mr. Greenberg if the situation was ever disclosed. Mr. Greenberg said he had never been informed the fence was on public property and would need to be moved. Town Council Minutes #21-2017 DRAFT October18, 2017 Page 5 Councilmember Thier asked if Mr. Greenberg was aware the fence was being replaced. Mr. Greenberg said the fence was already being built when he saw and purchased the property,and that it was never discussed. Mayor Fraser and Vice Mayor O'Donnell discussed the location of the previously existing and new fences, and questioned if the immediate neighbor's fence also encroaches on the right-of-way because they line up continuously. Chanis answered the neighbor's fence is on the property line,and only the portion of the fence encroaching in the right-of-way is in question. Kulik asked if the new fence is in the same location as the previously existing fence. Chanis confirmed this point, but added the original fence may not have been permitted. Councilmember Fredericks asked if the encroachment permit could be rescinded if the Town finds a public need for that space. Town Attorney Stock said it could. In response to a question from Councilmember Thier, Stock also explained that this application for encroachment permit is not consistent with the policy or general encroachment ordinance, and therefore, the permit could not be granted. Kulik asked if there was a circumstance where an extended use of this property could be a right to that property. Stock said it could not. Mayor Fraser opened the floor for public comment. Kathy McLeod believed it would set a poor precedent to allow fences to encroach in the public right- of-way. In his closing comments,Mr. Greenberg said he respected public space.He asked for understanding from the Council and for them to allow him to keep the extra nine feet of yard space he purchased. Mr. Greenberg said if he would be required to move the fence, it would just create an empty space next to the road, where many of his neighbors have fences right up to the road. Councilmember Fredericks believed the previously existing fence likely would not have qualified for an encroachment permit, and she did not believe encroachments should be permitted on the basis of keeping fences on the street lined up equally.Fredericks said encroachments are permitted for public safety reasons, and this request doesn't serve the public or follow the Town's policy. Vice Mayor O'Donnell said he agreed with Fredericks, and would vote to deny the appeal.He said the Council has directed staff to be vigilant about the ongoing issue of private encroachments on trails and open space because the Town should not privatize public space and the public right-of=way should be protected. Councilmember Kulik said this was a difficult circumstance, particularly because it was not Town Council Minutes #21-2017 DRAFT October18, 2017 Page 6 disclosed to the owner. Kulik said the original fence would have been allowed to stay where it was, so there is no functional change or incremental encroachment of public property. He added that imposing the requirement to remove this fence may create the potential for legal conflict for the owner. Councilmember Thier believed the fence should be removed,and said allowing the fence to remain would set a poor precedent for privatizing public space. Mayor Fraser said the Town approved plans that would have allowed the existing fence to remain, but the materials were replaced during construction. He agreed with the Council that they should not privatize public property, but he commented that this situation is seen in various areas of Tiburon. He said it was a difficult situation, but he would vote to accept the appeal. MOTION: To deny the appeal and direct staff to return to the Council with a resolution memorializing that decision.

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, 1 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, 1 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. Thank you, Roy Crumrine Lea Stefani From: Roy Crumrine <racrumrine@yahoo.com> Sent: Thursday, November 09, 2017 11:27 AM To: Lea Stefani Subject: Re:Another Planning Commission Vacancy - More Info Lea: Hope all is well. Last night, I was able to attend the Planning Commission meeting. It was the first one held since July 12 (so during this application process I haven't had the opportunity to see a recent meeting until now). The meeting was lightly attended. As far as I know, no other potential candidate (such as Jeff Tsai) was there; just applicants, their supporters, and neighbors. It was helpful to see our Planning Commission in action, and to see how the Planning Staff prepares the background and recommendations on the meeting agenda items. I reviewed both Staff Reports before the meeting last night. I didn't plan on speaking; but, from my review of the Staff Report, and my knowledge of the Audubon Center operations, I felt I had to point out that there would be a lot more cars and traffic at the site when they run their camps. The applicants omitted this. After I made this comment, the Commissioners were able to speak with the applicant again, and they asked that more work be done to mitigate the traffic issues when there may be as many as 70 children on the site at one time (not just the 20 for the preschool). At the start of the meeting, Lou Weller was thanked for his years of service. It was specifically pointed out that due to him being a long time resident of the Town, he had a uncanny sense of what the Town's residents' position would be on various projects before the Commission. After thinking about it, I realized that long term residency can have a lot of value to the Commission. It was because my own children have attended the Audubon Camps and because I had been the in the building that they intend to lease to the preschool that I knew there were going to be a lot more children on the site than the Applicant originally implied. So, if I had a do-over interview with the Town Council, having attended a recent meeting, and seeing the value of long term Town knowledge, I would stress that more in my interview. Another thing that came up in my interview is whether or not I had read the General Plan. I had read it years ago; but, I didn't want to represent to the Council members that it was fresh on my mind. However, it seemed to be an important prerequisite that they were looking for in a candidate. So, if I had a do-over interview, I would tell them that I have completed rereading through all of the elements of the General Plan. And, I'd be prepared to answer questions about it. Please add these comments to my application package; and, if the Council requests, I'd be happy to do another interview with them.

Serving the community, whether through my career positions or volunteer work, has always been a passion of mine. And I would like the opportunity now to directly serve our Town through the Planning Commission. I believe my broad public sector experience—working in California government, as well as in multiple capacities in the federal government—and knowledge from substantive oversight board positions prepare me well for duty as a Planning Commissioner. Tiburon Father, Husband, and Homeowner/Resident. My wife, daughters, and I have set our roots down in Tiburon. My family and I have resided in Tiburon for a little over four years. We have continuously lived in the Del Mar neighborhood, and we are members of the Del Mar Neighborhood Association. My wife, Shelby, is a working mom who dedicates a tremendous amount of time in the leadership of the Reed Schools Foundation. And our two kids are proud public-school students—Ella (Be] Aire, Fourth Grade) and Charlotte(Reed, Kindergarten). As the parent to very young children, my view of the world is oriented to the future. In the years to come, I want to be there to help set Tiburon's future and care-take its continued success for its residents—from our oldest to our youngest. We are active in our Tiburon community and value the life we have built here in the Town. But enjoyment of the Town and its offerings doesn't come without work from the people who live here. I believe the Planning Commission is an excellent forum for me to make a contribution. Career Public Service. As Special Assistant Attorney General,I served for over two years on former California Attorney General Kamala D. Ilarris' senior executive team. For every policy decision in which 1 participated and advised the Attorney General, our key priorities were always the same: ensuring that we were benefiting the public and that our actions complied with the law and the interests of,justice. Through this experience, I gained tremendous insight into the workings of California state government and the intricacies of policy and state law. This insight should be a valuable tool for the Planning Commission as it balances long-term strategy for the Town's continued development with the requirements of municipal, county, and state law. I also have served as federal prosecutor. I prosecuted large-scale white-collar frauds which regularly implicated taxpayer funds. My training as an investigator helps me ask the right questions and think critically about the uniqueness of factual situations and their application to the law. Board Experience. Although public service(2000-02 and 2005-15)has been the calling for much of my career, I have also gained incredible experience serving in various 1 .jeff Tsai Tiburon Planning Commission Applicalion July 27, 2017 Page 2 o f 2 relevant volunteer fiduciary positions. I currently serve as an appointed member of the Marin Healthcare District's Citizens Bond Oversight Committee,which is responsible for overseeing the faithful expenditure of Measure F bond funding for the re-build of Marin General Hospital. I also serve as a board director of the Chinese Historical Society of America, a San Francisco-based organization dedicated to preserving the history of Chinatown and the contributions of Chinese-Americans to this country's growth and development. I have also previously served in various relevant professional and personal organizations. For example, I have been an active member of the audit committee of the Olympic Club of San Francisco (2013-16),the national board of directors of the University of Texas Alumni Association(2013-16), and the Council of the American Bar Association's Criminal Justice Section (2013-16). As I look towards more public service opportunities that allow me to contribute to my immediate community, I am confident that my past experiences serving alongside other board members will serve me well and immediately as a Planning Commissioner. 2 Jeff Tsai Tiburon Planning Commission Application July 27, 2017 Page 1 q1'2 Attachment_B Current Employment Partner (2015-Present) Alston & Bird LLP (San Francisco) www.alston.coni Public Service Special Assistant Attorney General(2013-15) Office of California Attorney General Kamala D.

(If applicable) Belveron East Home Owners Association (Board member 5 years) TIBURON RESIDENT: (Years) 6 years DATE SUBMITTED: 11/6/17 I am interested primarily in serving on the Planning Commission due to my deep background and experience in the world of real estate (mostly commercial but also residential), and strong desire to help maintain and/or improve the wonderful and unique qualities of Tiburon. Many of these qualities, which have inspired and drawn so many of us here to raise our families and make new connections, are affected and/or influenced by the Town's land use regulations. I spent a lot time studying the Tiburon Zoning Ordinance when we rebuilt our home here five years ago, and respect the ideas and vision contained therein. I believe in adhering to its guidance, and making common sense amendments if and when they are sensible, supported by a majority of the Town's residents and elected/appointed leaders, and aim to strengthen and create greater, healthier, and more fluid connections with and across our community. APPICALA�ZEtCATItN ANDSX�'�'I��ENaCE I've lived in the Bay Area since 1998, and moved to Tiburon 6 years ago with my husband and two young daughters who are now in 1St and 41h grade at Reed/Bel Aire. Professionally, I've spent 13 years at Jones Lang LaSalle, one of the world's largest commercial real estate firms. I am currently a Senior Vice President at,.ALL advising real estate owners/investors such as pension funds, corporations, private developers, institutional advisors, lenders, etc. During this time, I've dealt with land use and zoning issues between owners and various Bay Area counties and cities. I believe the combination of my professional background, my direct experience building a new home in Tiburon, and my strong interest in city planning and zoning, real estate, and smart design will help me provide a thoughtful perspective on the issues that come before the Planning Commission. I continue to serve on the board of my local homeowners association (5 years) with an eye toward improving our local neighborhood for its residents, and look forward to having a positive impact on our greater Tiburon community working alongside the Town Council via the Planning Commission.

To: Mayor and Members of the Town Council From: Office of the Town Clerk Subject: TowX`1Council Committee Appointments—New Marin County Council of M 9I,5��and Councilmembers Ad Hoc Committees Reviewed By: BACKGROUND Members of the Town Council are appointed to serve on a variety of local and regional boards and committees, on Town ad hoc sub committees, and as Town representatives on a number of joint powers authorities. On October 25, 2017, the Marin County Council of Mayors and Councilmembers (MCCMC) approved the re-invigoration of the Pension and OPEB Reform ad hoc committee and the establishment of the Disaster Preparedness ad hoc committee. The proposals for both committees are attached as Exhibit 1 (Pension/OPEB) and Exhibit 2 (Disaster Preparedness). The Town Council may appoint: • Up to two members and one alternate to serve on the MCCMC Pension and OPEB Reform ad hoc committee • One member and one alternate to serve on the MCCMC Disaster Preparedness ad hoc committee On another note, the Town Council will consider the remainder of the committee appointments for 2018 at its annual review of the Appointments List at the first regular Town Council meeting in January. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Town Council consider making appointments to the Pension/OPEB and Disaster Preparedness ad hoc committees of MCCMC. Exhibits: 1. MCCMC Pension and OPEB Reform Ad Hoc Committee Proposal(submitted by MCCMC) 2. MCCMC Disaster Preparedness Ad Hoc Committee Proposal(submitted by MCCMC) 3. Town Council Committee Appointments List, last updated July 2017 Prepared By: Lea Stefani, Town Clerk To: MCCMC Executive Committee From: Larry Chu Councilmember, City of Larkspur MCCMC President (2007-08); Executive Committee (2006-10) Date: September 5,2017 RE: Pension and OPEB Reform Committee Obiective: Form an ad-hoc committee to evaluate the financial impact of pensions and Other Post- Employment Benefits (OPEB) on MCCMC members, and to report on all possible solutions addressing how to reduce the annual cost and the future liability. Background: At the MCCMC meeting on 10/27/10, an ad-hoc committee was formed to study this same issue. Each member appointed a representative and an alternate to the committee. The Marin Managers Association, the Marin Municipal Water District, and the Novato Sanitary District also expressed interest in the topic and were invited to participate. The committee met eight times from November 2010 to June 2011. The committee completed its review of pension benefits, but only performed a periphery look at OPEB. A final report was provided to the MCCMC members describing the history, current condition, and a range of possible options to mitigate the issue. However, the report did not issue any recommendations, leaving it up to each employer to determine the best course of actions for their unique financial circumstance. At the MCCMC meeting on 6/28/17, the members affirmed the desire to reestablish the Pension and OPEB Reform Committee to do a more comprehensive study on the OPEB side. Composition and Role of the Committee: Each member city/town will be permitted to appoint up to two representative and an alternate to serve on the committee. An invitation will also be extended to allow the Marin Managers Association to appoint a representative and an alternate. Each participating city/town will be expected to provide a past and present accounting of their pension and OPEB costs, the most current actuarial estimate of their unfunded liabilities, and the measures they have taken in the past six years to reduce these costs. EXHIBIT NO. Individual committee members may also be asked to assist with various facets of producing the final report. As with the first study, no policy decisions or recommendations will be made. Again, it will be left up to each employer to determine the best course of actions for their unique financial circumstance. Note that ten of the eleven cities/towns are General Law cities and members of California Public Retirement System (CalPERS). San Rafael is a Charter City and a member of the Marin County Employees' Retirement Association which is formed under the County Employees Retirement Law of 1937. The most substantive discussions will be specific to the Marin cities, excluding San Rafael. Additional research will be necessary to determine what is applicable to San Rafael. Topics: The committee be covering the following topics: • An overview of retirement benefits, a historical look at the conditions that have primarily contributed to the current problem, and a review of the current state of the cities/towns and their financial condition; • A general review of the reform efforts since the last report, focusing on the Public Employees' Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) and the changes in the reporting requirements as mandated by the Government Accounting Standards Board; • A specific city by city summary of the pension and OPEB changes that have been made since the last report; • A detailed study of the OPEB issue to be accompanied by the full range of possible actions that can be taken by a city/town to reduce the annual cost and the unfunded liability as well as the limits or dependencies (as applicable) to some of the solutions. • Discuss whether the MCCMC members, as employers, should take a political advocacy role in addressing pension and OPEB reform legislation at the State level. Make a recommendation to the MCCMC members. The committee will need to meet 6-8 times on a monthly basis. Typically, there are no recurring meeting on the fourth Monday of the month. If the committee can be established so there is enough time to have two meetings in 2017, the report can be published by the end of this fiscal year in June 2018. MEMO : October 17, 2017 FROM: Catherine Way, Councilmember City of Larkspur 400 Magnolia Avenue Larkspur, CA 94939 RE: Proposal for creation of an MCCMC Disaster Preparedness Ad Hoc Committee MCCMC Ad Hoc Committees are valuable opportunities for a smaller group of the membership to focus on a specific topic of general concern to every jurisdiction in Marin. Examples of recent MCCMC Ad Hoc Committees include: Homelessness and Sea Level Rise. The County of Marin is particularly vulnerable to potentially catastrophic natural disasters such as earthquake, wildland fire, and flooding. We need to only look north to our neighbors in Sonoma County to see the tremendous devastation that wildland fire has brought from the hillsides into the urban neighborhoods. Every city and town in Marin has the potential to be impacted by a natural disaster that often crosses quickly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Cities rely upon their professional firefighters, local police, and other emergency responders to rapidly respond to these crises. But it is critical that residents and businesses prepare to be self-reliant for extended periods of time so that they will be able to be more disaster resilient. Local authorities, elected officials, and community volunteers are important partners in this preparation. The initial goals of the MCCMC Disaster Preparedness Ad Hoc Committee are: 1. Assess formal and informal disaster preparedness activities and programs for residents and business occurring in represented cities/towns. Engage opportunities to share services or coordinate activities to maximize beneficial outcomes. 2. Compare and coordinate "Best Practices" of local disaster preparedness between jurisdictions by assessing what is currently being done in each community. 3. Respond to activities or programs that affect the cities/towns of countywide disaster preparedness programs such as the DC3 (Disaster Citizen Corp Council) a committee of the Marin County Board of Supervisors. 4. Encourage the implementation of the California State Disaster Service Worker protocol in each jurisdiction to ensure compliance with CA state law and reimbursement requirements. 5. Ensure the local adoption of NFPA Standard 1600 in each jurisdiction. 6. Examine financial resources available for local residential and business neighborhood disaster preparation and make recommendations for additional resource needs.

A boundary map of The District is attached as Exhibit 1. On January 4, 2017, the Town Council unanimously passed Resolution No. 0 1-2017 which, in addition to indicating Town's intent to form The District, did the following: • Approved the Preliminary Boundary Map for The District • Appointed Stradling, Yocca, Carlson and Routh as Bond Counsel, and Samuel Sperry as advisory Bond Counsel for The District • Appointed Harris and Associates as Assessment Engineer for the project. • Directed the Assessment Engineer to prepare a Preliminary Engineers Report with certain information including the following: o Preliminary plans and specifications for the improvements. o An estimate of the costs of the improvements. o The proposed assessment to each of the parcels within The District based on the direct and special benefit received by each parcel from the improvements. o The assessment diagram depicting the boundaries of The District and the parcels to be assessed. On September 19, 2017, Council considered the Draft Preliminary Engineers Report (September 19 Report) for the project. After receiving a staff presentation, conducting a public hearing and deliberating, Council directed Vice Mayor O'Donnell to work with staff, the Assessment Engineer and others to look for opportunities to address the issues and concerns raised by Council during their deliberations on this item. The entire agenda packet for this item from the September 19 meeting, including the complete September 19 Report, is attached as Exhibit 2. _........... _..__W..._._._ ...__..._.........................�...�...._......_.........................._................... ......._.... _................................................._._.......... ......................._............................_W..............__......................................... m\I- Col II-)�iI \Wc1iiIST DISCUSSION After the September 19 meeting, Vice Mayor O'Donnell conducted several meetings with staff and the Assessment Engineer. Based on these meetings, the Assessment Engineer has completed an updated Draft Preliminary Engineer's Report (The Updated Report) for the District, which is attached as Exhibit 3. Information on how to access The Updated Report, along with other information related to the project, was provided to property owners of record by mailed notices dated November 6, 2017. A copy of that notice is attached as Exhibit 4. All of the information related to this project is available on the Town's website at the following link: http://www.townoftiburon.ora/285/I�awthorne-Undcr� roundin6-District Revisions in Updated Report The Updated Report contains certain revisions from the September 19 Report including: • A revised assessment methodology. • Discounting the assessments on tax exempt properties in the District by 75%. • A proposed contribution (including General Benefit) from the Town of Tiburon towards the project of$500,000. The following is a brief explanation of each revision. Revised Assessment Methodology To establish the Special Benefit each parcel in The District will receive in proportion to other parcels within the District, a benefit point system is used. The Assessment Engineer has identified four benefit categories for this project including; District Aesthetic Benefit, Safety Benefit, Enhanced Reliability Benefit and Removal of Obstruction to View Benefit. Benefit points for each category are assigned on a parcel by parcel basis. The Assessment Engineer then weights the benefit categories to reflect the unique characteristics of The District. Regarding assessment methodology, The Updated Report differs from the September 19 Report in two material ways: 1. Removal of Obstruction to View Benefit In the September 19 Report, the view benefit component was broken into two types of views,primary and secondary. The Updated Report combines the two into one view category. 2. Weighting of Benefit Categories The assessments included in the September 19 Report reflected a formula which weighted the 4 benefit categories as follows: • District Aesthetic Benefit-20% • Safety Benefit-10% • Enhanced Reliability Benefit-10% • Removal of Obstruction to View Benefit-60% In The Updated Report, the assessments are based on a formula which weights the 4 benefit categories as follows: • District Aesthetic Benefit- 50% . .....__..... . ___ _............ .__.....__..._..... __ '____..___, l��r,n C nuncil \:ire i�in, • Safety Benefit- 10% • Enhanced Reliability Benefit- 10% • Removal of Obstruction to View Benefit- 3 0% As a result of these changes in the assessment methodology, the Updated Report includes proposed assessments for all parcels in The District that are different than the proposed assessments contained in the September 19 Report. A spreadsheet showing a parcel by parcel comparison of the proposed assessments from the two reports is attached as Exhibit 5. Discounting of Assessments on Tax Exempt Properties in the District The Updated Report includes a provision whereby the proposed assessments on the tax exempt parcels included in the District are discounted by 75%. There are four parcels in The District owned by tax exempt entities. Three of these parcels are owned by St. Hilary's Church/School, and one is owned by the Community Congregational Church. Proposed Town Contribution of$500,000 The Updated Report includes a proposed contribution(including General Benefit) from the Town towards the project up to $500,000. If the total cost of construction and incidental expenses is equal to, or greater than $10,757,563 (total estimated project cost less financing), then the full amount will be contributed. If the total cost of construction and incidental expenses is less than $10,757,563, then the Town's contribution would be reduced by a percentage equal to the percentage reduction in costs. In this scenario, the assessments on all of the parcels in the District would also be reduced. In determining the amount to be assessed to each parcel in The District, as set forth in the Updated Report, the Town contribution has first been applied to cover the General Benefit ($25,823), and then to reduce the assessments assigned to the four tax exempt parcels within The District by 75% (combined cost of$234,354.28). The remaining Town contribution, equaling $239,922.62, was then applied proportionally to each of the remaining parcels to reduce the assessment on each parcel. Given this application of the Town's contribution, the assessment on each parcel within the District is proportional to, and no greater than, the special benefits conferred on each parcel by the improvements. The reduction in the assessments of the tax- exempt parcels does not result in an increase in the assessment on any other parcel in The District and is consistent with the provisions of Article XIIID of the State constitution. Funding Completion of Plans and Specifications In addition to the elements of the Updated Report discussed above, staff is also proposing Council consider another change to how the project will be executed if it moves forward. This change relates to how the completion of the Plans and Specifications will be funded. Previously, staff indicated the Plans and Specifications would be funded by issuing bonds in the amount necessary to cover this cost, estimated at approximately $460,000. If the Council approves the Updated Report, and the ensuing vote of the property owners does not result in a majority protest, staff proposes that a portion of the Town's $500,000 contribution first be used to fund the completion of the Plans and Specifications, after which the project would be put out to bid. Assuming the bid results allow the project to move forward, the Town would not be reimbursed the cost of the Plans and Specifications. Rather, as discussed above, and described more fully in `k-('T the Updated Report, the Town's final contribution amount to the project, not exceed $500,000, will be determined by the actual cost of completing the project. Property Tax Postponement Program At the previous meeting, a member of the community mentioned the availability of the State funded Property Tax Postponement Program ("PTPP") as a program that could provide relief to property owners from paying their assessments. The Town Attorney has researched the PTPP, and has determined that it may be available to homeowners for the proposed assessments should the homeowners meet the criteria under that program, and funding for the program is sufficient to cover all qualified applicants. The PTPP allows homeowners who are senior citizens, blind or disabled to defer current-year property taxes on their principal residence, if they meet certain eligibility requirements, including 40 percent equity in the home and an annual household income of$35,500 or less. The PTPP program offers a deferred loan for the sole purpose of paying a homeowner's current property taxes, which also can include special assessments similar to the proposed assessments in this District. The loan amount, plus 7% interest, must be repaid to the State of California when 1) the property is no longer the borrower's principal residence, 2) the property is sold, conveyed, or transferred, 3) the property is subject to a delinquent senior lien, or 4) the property owner refinances or obtains a reverse mortgage. Moreover, the program operates on a first come, first served basis, with property owners required to submit an application each year for a deferral, which will be considered as a separate debt if approved. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS An Initial Study/Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) was prepared for this project, in accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The IS/MND was released for public comment on April 5, 2017.

A boundary reap of The District is attached as Exhibit 1. Pursuant to the attached certificate from the Town Clerk, attached as Exhibit 2, more than five property owners owning lands constituting more than one- half of the area of all assessable lands within the Proposed Undergrounding District signed petitions as required by State law. In addition, the Town Engineer determined property owners of more than 60%of the parcels to be included in the District, as required by the Town's `Policy and ProceduresJbr the Formation off'Utility Undergrounding Assessment Districts' (The Policy), signed petitions requesting that the District be formed. The Policy is attached as Exhibit 3. In addition to the petitions, the Town also received subscription deposits from some of the property owners that signed petitions. The total amount of subscription deposits received was $151,750. Subsequently, one property owner who moved out of the District requested, and received,a refund of their$1,000 deposit, resulting in a net amount of deposits remaining of $150,750. During this time,the Town issued a Request for Proposals for engineering services related to the proposed project. 5 proposals were received, with 2 finalists ultimately being invited for interviews by an interview panel. This panel was comprised of 2 Town staff members and 4 project proponents. After conducting the interviews,the panel unanimously recommended Harris and Associates be named District Engineer for the project On January 4,2017,the Town Council unanimously passed Resolution No. 01-2017 (Exhibit ) which, in addition to indicating Town's intent to form the District, did the following: * Approved the Preliminary Boundary Map for the Assessment District Appointed Stradling, Yocca,Carlson and Routh,and Samuel Sperry as Bond Counsel(s) for the Assessment.District Appointed Harris and Associates as Assessment Engineer for the project. /'' OAK#4844-8871-4556 V1 EXHIBIT NO. -- Directed the Assessment Engineer to prepare a Preliminary Engineers Report with certain information including the following: o Preliminary plans and specifications for the improvements. o An estimate of the costs of the improvements. o The proposed assessment to each of the parcels within the District based on the direct and special benefit received by each parcel from the improvements o The assessment diagram depicting the boundaries of the District and the parcels to be assessed Following the approval of Resolution No. 01-2017,project proponents asked the Town to hire a financial advisor to consult on this project.

Information on how to access The Report, along with other information related to the project, was provided to property owners of record by notices dated August 16, 2017 and August 22, 2017. The Policy requires Bond Counsel to provide advice and information to all interested property owners within the District about the assessment process and their rights and responsibilities. In addition,The Policy specifically requires Bond Counsel hold at least 2 meetings for the purpose of advising the property owners. The first of these meetings occurred on February 13, 2017, and the second,Which was required to occur prior to Town Council considering adoption of The Report, occurred on August 30, 2017, At the meeting on August 30, property owners in The District were provided the following: An update on the status of the project, a review of their rights and responsibilities in the process, and a presentation by the Assessment Engineer regarding the overall cost estimate for the project and assessment methodology used in arriving at the individual proposed assessment amounts included in The Report. The meeting was well attended with approximately 75 people filling Council Chambers to hear the presentations, ask questions and provide comments. Many of the questions and comments received at the August 30 meeting related to the cost estimate included in the Report. In an effort to provide additional inforination regarding the estimate, staff has developed a detailed analysis of the estimating associated with the project.

An C-1 EXHIBIT NO. 1,3 TOWN OF TIBURON POLICY & PROCEDURES FOR THE FORMATION OF UTILITY UNDERGROUNDING ASSESSMENT DISTRICTS Town Policy The Town of Tiburon strongly supports the undergrounding of overhead utility wires and poles(see Town Council Resolution No. 2996, adopted February 2, 1994). Undergrounding of overhead utilities improves public safety under fire, earthquake and high wind conditions; reduces utility company maintenance costs for tree trimming to maintain overhead lines and equipment;and results in improved visual characteristics. General Overview These policies describe the basic considerations and actions required to relocate and to finance such relocation of overhead utility lines underground. The policies are provided to guide property owners in achieving undergrounding of utilities in their neighborhoods and to help the Town Council,Town Staff and Town consultants in assisting in such efforts.Specific figures regarding estimated costs for undertaking this effort and ultimately implementing a specific project are not presented herein since they vary depending on the size, location of the proposed district and economic factors. A separate Frequently Asked Questions brochure(available at Town Hall or at www.tibur pn.org)may provide a range of answers to those types of specific non-policy questions. The procedures, events and steps described below are governed by California State law and guidelines of California Public Utilities Commission(regulating the Pacific Gas&Electric Company (PG&E)and other utilities)about the physical and financial requirements for utility undergrounding projects.The Town must comply with these laws and regulations while taking appropriate actions to coordinate the project frorn its inception to its completion. To provide for financing and to enforce connections to the underground system,the undergrounding districts will be special assessment districts established by the Town under State law. Unless contributions are available from other sources,property owners should know that 100%of the cost of the underground project will be borne by the property owners in the district. If available,funds from PG&E and other utilities will be applied to help reduce the costs, but there is no assurance of such availability. The proponents of a proposed district must submit a written petition to the Town showing the support by owners of at least 60% of all of the parcels in the prospective district. The Town will supply examples of petitions and instructions on its signing.

The procedures, events and steps described below are governed by California State law and guidelines of California Public Utilities Commission(regulating the Pacific Gas&Electric Company (11G&E)and other utilities)about the physical and financial requirements for utility undergrounding projects.The Town must coin ply with these laws and regulations while;taking appropriate actions to coordinate the project from its inception to its completion. To provide for financing and to enforce connections to the underground system,the undergrounding districts will be special assessment districts established by the Town under State law. Unless contributions are available from other sources,property owners should know that 100%of the cost of the underground project will be borne by the property owners in the district.If available,funds from PG&E and other utilities will be applied to help reduce the costs, but there is no assurance of such availability. The proponents of a proposed district must submit a written petition to the Town showing the support by owners of at least 60% of all of the parcels in the prospective district. The Town will supply examples of petitions and instructions on its signing. Along with the petition, the required subscription deposit for district formation costs (see discussion below) and an informal boundary map showing the parcels proposed to be included must be provided. Upon receipt of a satisfactory petition, deposit and informal map, the Town will begin the process of district formation. The Town will retain the District Engineer for the assessment district,along with Bond Counsel and the bond Underwriter. The District Enghicer (with the assistance of Town staff and. bond Underwriter) will prepare an estimate of all of the costs of the project. Those costs will include construction cost estimates(based on information from the utilities)and an allowance;forthe Town's administrative costs calculated to reimburse the Town for the work of Town staff on the project and bond issuance costs and deduct any possible contributions. An Advisory Services fund is'also established to allow project proponents and opponents to obtain legal advice and information from the Bond Counsel regarding the assessment process and their rights and responsibilities. That net cost will be apportioned or"assessed"to each of the parcels in the district based on how each parcel is-specially benefited from the undergrounding work.Under Proposition 218,the.District Engineer is responsible for defining the special benefit each parcel-receives and may take into account a variety of factors in defining that benefit. The method of allocating special benefit may vary from district to'district depending on the conditions of and,the improvements)needed for each such district. Under State law,the Town Council must hold a public hearing and conduct an assessment:ballot;to seek approval of the assessment part of the district. This approval requires an affirmative majority approval (based on dollars assessed) by property owners returning ballots. If approved,the Town may proceed with the assessment and the district. The assessment may then be paid in cash or allowed to"go to bond"or be financed at tax-exempt municipal bond rates for 20-25 years.Bonded assessments are collected on the County tax bill.The assessment is not a personal obligation of the property owner and it passes with the title to the property assessed, like regular taxes.The Bond Counsel and Underwriter prepare documents needed for the bonds. The costs of individual service connections to the underground facilities are borne by each property owner and are typically not included in the assessment. If possible, a small amount of bond funds may be available on a per-financing basis,at the request of property owners(first come-first served) to help finance connections.The actual amount available will depend on the size of the project and the estimated amount of bond financing available and will vary with each project. The entire process may take at least 12 to 24 months (assuming no legal actions/challenges).The duration of the process may also be affected by utility company financial conditions and staffing priorities. Policy &Procedures for the Formation of Utility Undergrounding Assessment Districts Page 2 of 9 Procedural Events & Steps for District Formation This section outlines the process of forming a special assessment district for utility undergrounding. in Tiburon. L Preliminaa Meetings Interested Property Owners meet with Town Staff to discuss.the process and procedures,and to have questions answered and concerns addressed.This would typically include,representatives of the Department of Public Works and the Town Manager.The project proponents would also be encouraged to hold a neighborhood meeting to discuss the.proposed project,solicit input, answer questions,etc.and schedule an informal presentation before the Town Council to solicit informal support for the proposed project. These are some of the most important steps in successfully creating a district. This document, along with the,-FAQ .brochure should be distributed,to all property owners whose participation is to be solicited.Proponents should also arrange a site walk with the prospective District Engineer to develop ballpark estimates of preliminary costs associated with creating the District.This will help refine the estimate of the total amount of subscription deposit funds that will be submitted to the Town along with petitions of interest as described below. 2. .Petition,of Interest Proponents of the proposed district circulate Petitions of Interest among all Property Owners.of theprospective district. 3. Informal Bounda1y Map As part of the Petition process, the Property Owner proponents prepare an informal boundary map showing the area proposed to be the district based upon the results of the circulated petition. The Town and District Engineer will review this reap and may suggest changes, as required to satisfy utility companies' requirements and requests of other, adjacent Property Owners. Property Owner Proponents may wish to distribute the informal boundary map. Property Owner--Proponents may also request a `boundary walk' with the affected,utility companies to better refine the project boundary. It should be noted that the utility companies (particularly PG&E)may require a deposit before they will attend a boundary walk. 4. Subscription Deposits When obtaining Petitions, Property Owner Proponents should also raise subscription deposit funds for preliminary design engineering and construction cost estimates and legal advisory services. Funding must be sufficient to secure engineering cost estimates from electric, telephone, and the cable franchise provider and to pay the advance costs required to retain the District Engineer. Policy &Procedures for the Formation of Utility Undergrounding Assessment Districts Page 3 of 9 The District Engineer will prepare complete technical plans and drawings for review by the utilities, and establish final cost estimates for the construction bidding process. Plans must contain detailed information on trench size and location, and the location of equipment within the trenches. Such drawings are usually ordered and directed by the District Engineer. Such costs may range from$900 to$1,700 per Property Owner Proponent and will depend on the size of the district, complexity of the project, the costs for the preliminary services required to establish the district.. Recently, PG&E and SBC (formerly Pacific Bell) have required full deposits up front before they will proceed with engineering support for a proposed district.The utility companies develop engineering drawings and technical specifications for design of their particular underground facilities,which are then incorporated into composite drawings by the District Engineer. It is the'composite drawings which are ultimately used for construction bidding purposes. If the district is formed and issues bonds,it will refund or credit these funds to the Property Owner Proponents in proportion to their contributions. As fuf'ther described in the following section,the Property Owner Proponents are also required to raise funds for Legal Advisory services. In accordance with a recently adopted Settlement Agreement, this amount is to be $100 per Property Owner Proponent, up to a maximum of $10,000 for the entire district. Accordingly,the total subscription deposit necessary to form an assessment district may range between$1,000 and$1,800 per Property Owner Proponent.If for any reason,the district is not formed, and/or fails to issue the bonds, the Property Owner Proponents will receive only the amount of their'contributions that have not been spent. S. filing the Petition of Interest.Subscription Deposit`and boundary Map The Petitions may be submitted to the Town when Property Owners representing at least 60% of the total number of parcels to in the proposed district have signed'and the Subscription Deposits(see above)and the informal boundary map are ready.Staff will check the Petition to be sure that there the necessary signatures from the required percentage of properties and that the Subscription Deposit and boundary map are in order. 6. first Council Meeting-Resolution of Intention At the first Council meeting, the Council adopts the Resolution of Intention to Make Acquisitions and Improvements which formally begins the assessment process. 7. Consultants With the Resolution of Intention,the Town will appoint:Bond Counsel,the District Engineer, and the Underwriter. The District Engineer prepares the estimates of costs, the proposed assessment of the costs to each parcel in the district, the formal maps of the district and the pians and specifications for the construction work.The plans may be preliminary at this stage. In accordance with State law, the assessment of costs to each parcel in the district will be Policy &Procedures for the Formation of Utility Undergrounding Assessment Districts Page 4 of 9 developed by an analysis of the special benefit that each property owner receives from the improvements funded by the assessment. All of the above information is summarized in the "Engineer's Report"for the district. The Underwriter is responsible for helping to estimate the costs of the bonds.and in pricing, selling and delivering the bonds to the bond market. The Underwriter is paid:only from the bond issue and only if bonds are issued. Bond -Counsel directs al,l legal proceedings to establish the district including Council resolutions,notices,forms of documents and instructions, including the levy of�tlxc assessment and issuance of bonds. Except for the Advisory,Services to Property Owners below, Bond Counsel is paid only if the bonds are actually issued, , Bond Counsel also provides advice and information(the"Advisory Services")to all interested Property Owners within the proposed district(whether they support or oppose the,projeet)about the assessment process and their rights and responsibilities. All Property Owners shall be provided with notice of their right to.meet with. Bond Counsel,and this notice shall include written materials that describe the assessment:process and their rights and opportunities to be heard during the Process.:, • Bond Counsel shall hold at least 2 meetings for the purpose of advising the Property Owners: The I" meeting as soon as practicable fallowing Town appointment of Bond Counsel and the 2°d second meeting shall be held before Town Council votes to preliminarily adopt the Engineer's Report for the district. To the extent,that Advisory Funds are available, Bond Counsel shall .be available toTrovide brief follow-up telephone consultation to.affected Property Owners. In the event the Advisory Fund is insufficient to provide all of the Advisory Services described in this section, Bond Counsel shall provide Advisory Services in the following order of priority: (1)written materials describing the process; (2) meeting with Property Owners prior to adoption of the. draft Engineer's Report; (3) meeting following retention of Bond Counsel; and (4) telephone consultation. The Town Attorney has sole discretion to supervise Bond Counsel's provision of Advisory Services to ensure,so far as practicable,that such services are fairly allocated between all affected Property Owners. Policy &Procedures for the Formation of Utility Undergrounding Assessment Districts Page 5 of 9 8. Second Coll 1icil_Mecti119-PrelilpProvxtl The District Engineer prepares and files the following items with the Town Clerk: • The Engineer's Report containing estimates of total assessment district costs,including costs for District Engineer, utility company engineering, Bond Counsel, Underwriter Advisory Fund, construction contract and Town administration. Construction cost estimates will include a breakdown of each property owner's individual service connection cost. • Map of Proposed .Boundaries and Assessment Diagram for the district Plans& Specifications for Project, The Town Council adopts: • Resolution Preliminarily Approving District Formation/Boundary Map, Engineer's Report, and Directing Actions with Respect Thereto;and • Resolution Approving Plans and Specifications and Calling for Bids for Construction (If the plans and specifications are still preliminary,this step may be deferred until after the Assessment District is officially formed and the final plans are prepared by the District Engineer). 9. After Second Council Meeting Immediately following the Second Council Meeting,the Town Clerk,in coordination with the District Engineer and Bond Counsel,takes the following actions: Mails Notices of Proposed Assessments and Ballots to Property Owners at least 45 days prior to the Public I ler -ing; M Records Map of Proposed .Boundaries of the District; and Cor�rdinate pftl�lication of call for construction bids (if appropriate). 10. Informational Works_hor) In the 45-day period after Item 9, Town Staff and the consultants hold a Workshop about the project and the proposed financing. 11. Construction Bids Under the State Public Contract Code and the Chapter 3A of the Tiburon Municipal Code, Town solicits contractor bids for construction. Typically,the bid period is 30 days,with bids received about two weeks before the public hearing and ballot. After the bid'opening, the District Engineer and Town Staff determine the lowest responsible bid and adjust the proposed assessments if warranted.This step may be deferred until after Item 17 if preliminary plans and specifications are used for district formation. Policy &Procedures for the Formation of Utility Undergrounding Assessment Districts Page 6 of 9 12. Third Council Mectinf-Public Hearin and Ballot At a Council meeting held at least 45 days following mailing of the Notice of Proposed Assessments, the Town Council will: • Hold a.public hearing to solicit any comments for or against the assessment • Close the public hearing and call for the tabulation of ballots The Town Clerk opens and counts ballots. Ballots are weighted on dollars assessed (for example,if all assessments are the same,each property owner has one vote). Only valid ballots actually received by the end of the hearing are counted. Unsigned, unreadable or unmarked ballots are not valid. If more than 50 percent of the ballots cast are against, the proceedings must be abandoned. If a majority approving vote is received, and the Council concurs, Council then adopts: Resolution Adopting Engineer's Report,Confirming Assessments.and Directing Actions with Respect Thereto This resolution levies the assessment and directs recordings and filings for the assessment lien and directs the cash payment period. This resolution also has provisions establishing completion time requirements for individual service connections. 13. Immediately After 12above The Town Clerk, District Engineer and Bond Counsel, takes the following actions: • Files and Records Assessments,Notices of Assessment and Assessment Diagram; • Publishes Notice to Pay Assessments; and • Mails Notices to Pay Assessment to each Property Owners (include the deadline date for completing individual service connections). 14. Cash I'vn t;nt Period Property Owners have a minimum 30-day period to pay cash for their assessments or any portion. At the end of the 30-day period,the exact amount of bonds to be issued is determined based on the remaining,unpaid assessments. After the cash payment period: • The Administrative Services Director completes the List of Unpaid Assessments, and • The Bond Purchase Agreement and Preliminary Official Statement are filed with the Town Clerk. Policy &Procedures for the Formation of Utility Undergrounding Assessment Districts Page 7 of 9 Property Owners must also decide whether to contract with the Contractor performing the District work or hire their own contractor to perform individual service connection work on their property. 15. Fourth Cy611ncil Meeting-Bonds At a Town Council Meeting after Item No. 14 above, Town Council adopts: m Resolution Authorizing Issuance of Bonds; and is Resolution Authorizing Execution of the Construction Contract. This step may be deferred until after Item 17 if preliminary plans and specifications need to be finalized by the District Engineer. 16. After Item 15 The Administrative Services Director and Underwriter price the bond issue, and the Town executes the following: Bond Purchase Agreement(sells bonds); and Preliminary Official Statement(describes bonds for market) 17. Bond Closing, Approximately 2 weeks after Item 16, the bonds are delivered to Underwriter in exchange for the purchase price under the Bond Purchase Agreement. This, along with the cash payments, provides the funds for to pay for the underground project and its related costs.. 18. Execution of Construction Contract The Town executes the Construction Contract with the selected bidder. Construction work would typically commence within a few weeks of contract execution. Town staff makes progress payments to the Contractor as with any public works contract. Construction duration will depend on the size and complexity of the project, but typically lasts 60 to 90 days. 19. Uti'lity_Coordinatian Upon completion of construction, the Town coordinates with the utilities to connect all properties to the new underground system. This process may take several weeks or more depending on the scheduling requirements of each utility company. Each property owner is responsible for connecting his or her property to the newly undergrounded facilities. The Town's contractor is usually required to offer service connection work at established costs. However,each owner may chose his or her own contractor or other provider for the individual service connection work. Policy &Procedures for the Formation of Utility Undergrounding Assessment Districts Page 8 of 9 20. Work Coini3lcted After all connections ate completed,the utilities will remove the overhead system. Town pays final bills and costs, including any remaining legal and administrative costs incurred by the Town for the project. If there is any surplus remaining,the Council may take action to provide any Ru-ther improvements needed to complete the project and/or distribute any surplus as provided by law.

Section 4 of Article XIIID provides that only special benefits are assessable and the local agency levying the assessment must separate the general benefits from the special benefits. It also provides that parcels within a district that are owned or used by any public agency,the State of California,or the United States shall not be exempt from assessment unless the agency can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that those publicly owned parcels in fact receive no special benefit. In addition, Section 4 requires that a parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. Neither-the Act nor the State Constitution specifies the method or formula that should be used to apportion the costs to properties in any special assessment district proceedings. The responsibility for recommending an apportionment of the costs to properties which specially benefit from the improvements rests with the Assessment Engineer,who is appointed for the purpose of making an analysis of the facts and determining the correct apportionment of the assessment obligation. In order to apportion the assessments to each parcel within the boundaries of the assessment district in direct proportion with the special benefit which it will receive from the improvements,an analysis has been completed and is used as the basis for apportioning costs to each parcel within the Assessment District. The approval of the assessments rests with the Town Council. The Council renders its decision after hearing testimony and evidence presented at a public hearing and tabulating the assessment ballots, which are mailed to all record owners of property within the Assessment District. Only ballots delivered to the Town Clerk prior to the close of the public hearing are tabulated. The Council's findings must include whether or not the assessment spread has been made in direct proportion to the estimated special benefits received by each parcel. The following sections set forth the methodology used to apportion the costs of the improvements to each parcel. SEPARATION OF GENERAL AND SPECIAL BENEFIT Under Article XIIID, only special benefits may be assessed, and it is the responsibility of the Assessment Engineer to identify, quantify, and exclude general benefits from the assessment that is apportioned to parcels in proportion to the special benefit they will receive from the improvements. As stated in the "Proposition 218 Guide for Special Districts" prepared by the California Special Districts Association, the requirement that a public agency separate the general benefits from the special benefits helps ensure that the special benefit requirement is met. As defined in Article XIIID, "special benefit"means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large. DRAFT—For Review Purposes Only asI Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon August 8,2017 Assessment District No.2017.1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's ReportPage 10 The benefits associated with the undergrounding of overhead utilities are related to increased reliability, improved neighborhood aesthetics, enhanced safety and the removal of obstructions to view within the Assessment District and potentially for areas outside of the Assessment District.The spec'fie location and nature of the undergrounding project will determine if the benefits are a"general benefit"or provide a"special benefit"to parcels within the Assessment District, or a combination of both. GENERAL BENEFIT Because of the localized nature of the improvements within the Assessment District and tine small number of parcels that will be impacted by the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities along roadways providing ingress/egress to the parcels within the District, the Assessment Engineer has determined the benefits described in the following section represent special benefits that are conferred on parcels within the Assessment District, and that there are no "general benefits" that will be conveyed to parcels outside the boundaries of the Assessment District, or to the public at large associated with the undergrounding of the overhead utilities within the Assessment District except as described in the findings below: • Aesthetics Benefit. The Assessment Engineer has determined that there are no aesthetic benefits which represent general benefit or benefits to the public at large. This is based upon the fact that the majority of the utility poles and overhead facilities that will be undergrounded are located along the local streets within the,Assessment District that provide ingress/egress to parcels within the District. Those local streets are not used by "through traffic" to reach destinations that are outside the District. The removal of the overhead utilities and poles will provide an aesthetic benefit for the parcels within the District which the Assessment Engineer has determined represents aspecial benefit to parcels within the District. In addition to the removal of the existing overhead utilities on the local streets within the District,there are also overhead lines on several utility poles which will be removed that are located adjacent to the Old Rail Trail at the rear of the parcel owned by the Belvedere Tennis Club, and several poles that are near Tiburon Boulevard but away from the edge of the pavement The Assessment Engineer has determined that the removal of those poles does not provide an improvement in aesthetics that would represent a general benefit to the community or the public at large. The existing utilities do not impact aesthetics for park visitors related to views of tine bay since they are located on the opposite side of the trail. For traffic on Tiburon Boulevard the existing utilities are generally located almost one hundred feet to several hundred feet from the edge of pavement,and are largely screened by the tennis club's facilities which are located between Tiburon Boulevard and the existing utilities. The removal of the existing overhead utilities near the Old Rail Trail will not result in increased usage of the Richardson Bay Linear Park by visitors who had not previously used the park because of the visual blight caused by the existing overhead utilities, or result in increased traffic along Tiburon Boulevard because of improved views looking towards the bay. While the Town has identified its desire to remove all the poles along the Old Rail Trail and Tiburon Boulevard,the Assessment Engineer has determined that the undergrounding of those utility poles does not provide a general benefit to all parcels within the Town or to the public at large based upon the requirements of Proposition 218. The Assessment Engineer's review Of studies connpleted by a number of organizations and public entities found that the DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only Harris&Associates Town of Tiburon August 8,2017 Assessment District No.20171 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 11 undergrounding of utilities did not provide an economic benefit to parcels not within the Assessment District or the community at large. The studies found that the cost of undergrounding utilities was many times the value or economic benefit to the community,that the benefit to the public at large was not quantifiable, and that there was no economic benefit to the community related to increased business expenditures or tourism as a result of the undergrounding. Enhanced Reliability Benefit. The Assessment Engineer has determined that there is no general benefit that will be conveyed to parcels outside of the Assessment District. or to the public at large related to enhanced reliability. This is based upon industry data that shows there is little difference in the total "out of service" time (the total service interruption time for all outages measured by the frequency of service interruptions and the tirne to repair) for customers served by overhead systems versus those served by underground utilities. While the undergrounding of an existing overhead utility generally results in a reduction in the frequency of service interruptions, the time to restore service in an underground utility is longer due to the difficulty in identifying the location of system outages and the time required to complete repairs. Because of this, the total "out of service" time is comparable for overhead and underground utility systems. The result is that parcels outside of the District will not see a reduction in "out of service" time as a result of the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities within the Assessment District. In addition to looking at "out of service" time, the ability of the utility to restore service to parcels outside of the Assessment District in the event of damage to the utilities (whether overhead or underground)within the District was also reviewed. Based upon redundancies in the system and PG&E's operation of the distribution system,power could be restored to parcels outside of the Assessment District prior to the repair of the damaged utilities within the Assessment District. Existing facilities outside of the District could be used to feed power to parcels outside of the District while repairs are being made. For example, although the utility lines located adjacent to the Old Rail Trail are part of PG&E's distribution system that provides power to downtown Tiburon, if one of those utility poles were damaged. PG&E could restore power to parcels outside of the Assessment District, including the downtown area, by "switching"power to restore service to parcels outside of the Assessment District prior to the completion of repairs. Similarly, if parcels outside the District are affected by a portion of the existing overhead facilities within Hilary Drive being damaged as a result of a vehicle hitting a utility pole, PG&E could restore power to those parcels prior to the completion of repairs. Finally, if portion of the overhead utilities within Rock Hill Road,north of Hillary Drive were damaged, no parcels outside the Assessment District would be impacted. Since the ability to restore service to parcels outside of the District is not improved as a result of undergrounding the utilities within the District,there is no enhanced reliability benefit to parcels outside of the Assessment District from undergrounding the existing overhead utilities within the District. Removal of Obstructions to View.The Assessment Engineer has determined that the two(2) parcels that are owned by the Town of Tiburon which are outside the boundaries of the Assessment District will not receive a benefit from the relocation of the overhead utilities adjacent to the Old Rail Trail on those parcels. This is based upon the Assessment Engineer's determination that the overhead utilities that are located on the Belvedere Tennis Club's parcel DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only asI Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon August 8,2017 Assessment District No.2017.1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's ReportPage 12 do not obstruct views towards the bay for park users since they are located in the opposite direction. In addition, since there is no development currently on those parcels or that would be allowed in the future that would benefit from the removal of obstructions to view from tine existing utilities since the parcels are within the jurisdiction of the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission. Safety Benefit. The safety benefit related to the undergrounding of the overhead facilities within the Assessment District is a result of the removal of the fixed obstructions (existing power poles, guy wires and related facilities) trorn the right-of-sway, and the mitigation of the potential delay by emergency responders that will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipment if an overhead utility line is in the way until it has been de-energized. in addition, the threat to structures ora property being dal7W�Ied by downed utility lines and poles caused by earthquakes, high winds and other unforeseeable events is reduced by the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. The Assessment Engineer has determined that there is a general benefit to the public at large related to the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities located adjacent to the Old Rail Trail, The relocation and undergrounding of the utilities adjacent to the Old Rail Trail will provide increased safety to those using Richardson Bay Lineal Park by removing the risk of injury from coming in contact with downed utilities and the removal of the fixed obstructions that are located in proximity, to the trail. Based upon a street frontage of 75 feet for a typical residential parcel, the 590 linear feet of overhead utilities adjacent to the Old Rail Trail is the equivalent of the frontage for 7.85 residential parcels. A total of 3.925 benefit points have been assigned for the general benefit which represents 50% of the benefit that would be assigned to the equivalent number of residential parcels since there are no structures that could be damaged by downed utility poles or lines, or utility could not be damaged by vehicles hitting a utility pole. A contribution of$25,823 will be required to offset the general benefit related to tine safety benefit associated with the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities along the Old Rail Trail. SPECIAL BENEFITS While the courts have found that a general enhancement of property value does not constitute"special benefit"(Silicon Valley Taxpayers'Assn v. Santa Clara Cnty. Open S13ace Authority) if an assessment district is narrowly drawn so that parcels that benefit in way that is particular and distinct from parcels outside of the district, or the public at large they are deemed to receive a special benefit. Specifically, the undergrounding of existing overhead utilities adjacent to parcels and the installation of new street lights on the streets which provide ingress/egress to each parcel provides a particular and distinct benefit to those parcels that is not realized by other parcels or to the public at large. The courts have found that the characterization of a benefit(special vs. general)may depend on whether parcels within a district receive a direct advantage from the improvement based upon their proximity to the improvement, or receive an "indirect, derivative advantage resulting from the overall public benefits of the improvement"(e.g., general enhancement of the district's property values). There are four (4) types of special benefit that parcels may receive as a result of the proposed undergrounding of the existing overhead utility facilities (power, telephone, street light and cable facilities)with underground facilities. DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only I Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon August 8,2017 Assessment District No.2017.1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 13 • Aesthetics Benefit. All of the parcels within the Assessment District will specially benefit from the removal of the overhead wires and utility poles serving tl}e parcels within the boundaries of the Assessment District, including the removal of guy wires and other support structures related to the overhead facilities. The improvements will enhance the aesthetics of the streetscape by removing the physical and visual impediments related to the existing overhead utilities within the right-of-way along the local streets; and will improve the visual environment for properties within the Assessment District. In addition, the removal of the overhead utilities within the Assessment District will bring the area surrounding each parcel closer to current development standards which require that all utilities be placed underground. This will increase the desirability of the parcels within the Assessment District to a potential purchaser when compared to a similar parcel served by overhead wires and utility poles. Enhanced Reliability Benefit. As discussed in the general benefit discussion, while the frequency of service outages may be reduced as a result of installing the existing overhead facilities underground, the time to restore service in the event of an outage will increase. As a result, the"out of service" time is expected to be similar. However the installation of all new wires and new equipment installed underground within the Assessment District will reduce the fi•equency of service interruptions to parcels within the District due to the increased reliability of the upgraded facilities. In addition, the technology used in modern underground systems allow the utility to minimize the ]lumber of parcels impact by an outage. Parcels which have not already undergrounded their service will also see a reduction in outages related to damages to their- individual service lines which will be required to be replaced to connect to the new underground services. As a result, each parcel within the Assessment District will receive a special benefit related to enhanced reliability from the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities within the Assessment District that is not received by parcels outside of the District. Removal of Obstructions to View.The removal of the existing overhead utilities will provide a special benefit to parcels within the Assessment District that will vary in proportion to the impact the existing overhead utilities and poles have on the view from within structures or from Outdoor living areas. The special benefit will also vary based upon the view-shed impacted by the existing overhead utilities.The removal of obstructions from the existing overhead utilities which will enhance view of Richardson Bay from parcels within the Assessment District (Primary View Shed or Primary View) will receive a greater special benefit than the enhancement of views of adjacent areas surrounding the parcel (Secondary View Shed or Secondary View). • Primary View/Property Enhancement. The location of a parcel in relationship to the existing overhead utilities and view towards Richardson Bay has a direct impact Oil the parcel's visual aesthetics and view enhancement it receives from the removal of the existing overhead utilities. • Secondary View/Property Enhancement. The location of a parcel in relationship to the existing overhead utilities and view away from the Richardson Bay has a direct impact on the parcel's visual aesthetics and view enhancement it receives from the removal of the existing overhead utilities. DRAFT—For Review Purposes Only Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon August 8,2017 Assessment District No.2017.1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 14 R Safety Benefit. The undergrounding of the overhead facilities within the District will specially benefit parcels in two ways from a safety perspective. The first relates to the elimination of the threat to structures or property including any occupants within from being damaged or harmed by downed utility lines and poles caused by earthquakes, high winds and other unforeseeable events. The second relates to the removal of the fixed obstructions from the right-of-way and the potential delay by emergency responders that will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipment if an overhead utility line is in the way until it has been de-energized. As described in the Methodology section below, not all parcels receive these benefits to the same extent based upon their location in proximity to the existing overhead utilities. To establish the special benefit each individual parcel within the Assessment District receives in relation to the other parcels within the Assessment District, a Benefit Point system is used. Each parcel of land is assigned benefit points in proportion to the estimated special benefit a parcel receives relative to the other parcels within the Assessment District from the utility undergrounding activities. The parcels within the Assessment District are almost entirely developed for residential use. Benefit points have been assigned to each residential parcel based upon its current use and the benefit which it receives from the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities as discussed below. • District Aesthetics Benefit. All residential parcels within the Assessment District that have their primary ingress/egress along streets where the existing overhead utilities adjacent to their parcel frontage(along either side of the street)will be undergrounded will benefit equally from the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. Each parcel which has existing overhead utilities adjacent to its frontage is assigned one (i) benefit point for each existing or potential dwelling unit which could be constructed on the parcel. Those parcels where the existing overhead utilities do not front the parcel but which receive utility services from the existing overhead utilities within the Assessment District and must use the street(s) where the existing utilities will be undergrounded will receive 50% of the benefit assigned to parcels where the existing overhead utilities front the parcel since they are impacted to a lesser degree by the existing overhead utilities. Since the streets within the Assessment District do not provide access to areas which extend beyond the boundaries of the Assessment District and since the overhead utilities in the Assessment District are not generally visible from areas that are outside of the Assessment District there is no aesthetic benefit for parcels that are not within the Assessment District boundaries. ■ Safety Benefit. Parcels within the District will benefit from the elimination of potential property damage from downed utility lines and poles, the removal of the fixed obstructions from the right-of-way, and the mitigation of the potential for delay by emergency responders that will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipment if an overhead utility line is Ill the way until it has been de-energized. Each parcel that has its point of ingress/egress along a street which has overhead facilities that will be undergrounded is assigned one (1) benefit point for each existing or potential dwelling unit which could be constructed on the parcel.

Enhanced Reliability Benefit. All parcels within the District that receive services from the existing overhead utilities or which would be impacted by a service outage of the existing overhead utilities within the District will specially benefit from the enhanced reliability of service due to having all new wires and equipment and having such new equipment underground, and the intelligent technology which minimizes the number of parcels impacted by a service outage. Each parcel is assigned one (1) benefit point for each existing or potential dwelling unit which could be constructed on the parcel. Parcels that are served by utilities which have been undergrounded immediately adjacent to the parcel but which tie into existing overhead utilities that will be undergrounded and which would be impacted by a service outage in the existing overhead utilities that are to be undergrounded are assigned one-half(1/2) a benefit point since they receive a reduced benefit. ■ Removal of Obstructions to View. Tile removal of obstructions to view includes both Primary View Sheds (looking towards the RichardsonBay) and Secondary View Sheds (looking away from the Richardson Bay). Residential parcels may receive a special benefit related to its primary view, its secondary view, or both its primary view and its secondary view based upon its location and the location of the existing overheard utilities that will be undergrounded. The level of benefit a parcel receives is based on the following view shed definitions. Prrinlarry View Shed is defined as the view from within the dwelling unit or outside living areas looking towards Richardson Bay which may be impacted by the existing overhead utilities. o High (1.0). "rhe Primary View Shed includes views of Richardson Bay from within the dwelling or from outside living areas. The current view of the Bay is significantly obstructed by the presence of the existing overhead utilities located adjacent to the parcel and will be improved by the removal and undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. o Medium (0.5). The Primary View Shed includes views of Richardson Bay from within the dwelling or from outside living areas but the existing overhead utilities are not located within the roadway which is adjacent to the parcel. The current view is partially obstructed by the presence of the existing overhead utilities and will be improved by the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. o Low (0.2.5). The Primary View Shed includes a view of Richardson Bay fi-om within the dwelling or from outside living areas and current view is minimally obstructed by the presence of the existing overhead utilities that are visible but not located on the street(s) immediately adjacent to the parcel and the view will be minimally improved by the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. DRAFT—For Review Purposes Only asI Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon August 8,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 16 None (0.0). The Primary View Shed may or may not have a view of Richardson Bay from within the dwelling, however, the existing overhead Utilities that will be undergrounded are not within the view shed. Secondary View Shed is defined as the view from within the dwelling Unit or outside living looking towards the existing overhead utilities that will be undergrounded but which are not looking towards Richardson Bay. o High (0.5). The Secondary View Shed from within the dwelling or from outside living areas is significantly obstructed by the presence of the existing overhead utilities adjacent to the parcel and will be improved by the removal and underlyroLmdijig of the existing overhead Utilities. o Medium (0.25). The Secondary View Shed is partially obstructed from within the dwelling or from outside living areas by the presence of the existing overhead utilities which may or may not be adjacent to the parcel and will be improved by the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. o Low (0.125). The Secondary View Shed is mininially impacted by the existing overhead Utilities that will be undergrounded from within the dwelling or from outside living areas as result of the elevation or existing vegetation which significantly blocks the view of the existing overhead utilities that will be undergroutided,or the distance from within the structure or from outside living areas to the overhead utilities is so great that the existing overhead utilities minimally impact views. o None (0.0). The Secondary View Shed does not have a view of the existing overhead Utilities that will be undergrounded from within the dwelling or from outside living areas as result of the elevation or existing vegetation which blocks any view of the existing overhead utilities that will be undergrounded. Exceptions There are several parcels within the Assessment District which are not developed or planned for residential use. Each of those parcels has a conditional use permit which allows the continued use of the parcel as it is currently developed, and no change in Use is likely to occur which would alter the special benefit the parcel receives. 'the methodology used to assign benefit points relative to the non- residential use parcels is explained below. I. St. Hilary Catholic Church and School A.N. 16, 17 & 23 (Assessor's Parcel Numbers (APN) 055-253-22, 055-253-21 & 039-151-52) is developed as a parish and school-site owned by the Archdiocese of San Francisco and encompasses roughly 7.62 acres. "hhe main entrance to the school is on Rock Hill Road; which is being undergrounded.and there is a second entrance on Hillary Drive which is also being undergrounded. Both the ChurCll and school receive Utility service fi-om Rock 1-1111 Road. BeCaU$e this property is developed as a church and school site. the special benefit which it receives is not the same as a residential parcel based on its Use. DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only I Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon August 8,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's ReportPage 17 a) Aesthetics Benefit. Schools and churches are treated differently than residential parcels when determining the aesthetic benefit they receive as a result of the undergrounding of existing overhead utilities. Unlike residential parcels, parcels developed for religious or school use are not more desirable to a potential purchaser as a result Of tile undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities.This is a result of the limited number of parcels that may be on the market and as a result there is not a direct impact on the desirability of a parcel where the utilities have been undergrounded compared to a similar parcel which is served by overhead utilities. However,some special benefit can be attributed to the property fi-om improved aesthetics. The special benefit received by a typical residential parcel is related to the undergrounding of the overhead utilities that are adjacent to the parcels fi-ontage. A typical residential parcel within the Assessment District has an average frontage of approximately 75 feet which provides ingress/egress to the parcel along the streets where the utilities will be undergrounded and is assigned one(1) benefit point. While most of the parcel area does not directly abut the streets where the existing overhead utilities will be undergrounded, these parcels do have frontage at two (2) separate locations that provide ingress/egress to the parcels where the existing utilities will be undergrounded. Two (2) benefit points are assigned for aesthetic benefit. h) Lnl?roved Safety Benefit. The school and church property receives an improved safety benefit from the undergrounding project which will remove the fixed obstructions along- the longthe streets which provide access to the property and the potential for delay by emergency responders that will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipment if an overhead utility line is in the way until it has been de-energized. The structures on these parcels will not benefit from the elimination of potential property damage from downed utility lines and poles since the existing overhead utilities are not located near any existing or potential future structures. Since the primary benefit for these parcels is related to the removal ofthe fixed obstructions along the streets used for ingress/egress and the reduction in the potential delay by emergency responders, the benefit to these parcels is related to a residential property based upon the number of trips generated per day which Would use streets within the Assessment District. Based upon an average of 10 trips per day For residential parcels and an average of 2.7 trips per student per day(estimated enrollment of 276 students),these parcels are the equivalent of 74.5 equivalent dwelling units. Since these parcels do not benefit fi-om the elimination of potential property damage or injury to occupants due to the location of the improvement on these parcels in relationship to the location of the existing overhead utilities they receive a reduced benefit related to the removal of the fixed obstructions and the reduction in potential delays by emergency responders. The safety benefit is reduced by 75% rather than the 50% for a residential parcel since the hours of use or occupancy are less than for residential parcels. A total of 18.625 benefit points are assigned for the safety benefit. c) Enhanced Reliability Benefit. Residential parcels are assigned one(I)benefit point for each electrical service to structures on the parcel. As there are five(5) independent structtnNs on the property served by the existing utilities, the enhanced reliability benefit is considered for each of the structures and is then added together. The combined enhanced reliability benefit for these parcels is 5 benefit points. DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only IMI Harris&Associates Town of Tiburon August 8,2017 Assessment District No.20171 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 18 dj Removal of Obstr-rrctions to View. The location of the existing overhead utilities which Will be undergrounded do not impact the primary or secondary views from the structures or outside use areas there are no benefit points assigned for this benefit factor. 2. Community Congregational Church of Tiburon A.N. 33 (Assessor's Parcel Number(APN)039-1 1 1-21) is a church site and encompasses roughly 4.87 acres. The main entrance to the site is at the upper end of Rock Hill Road; which is being undergrounded. The church receives utility services from the existing overhead utilities Rock Hill Road that will be undergrounded. Because this property is developed as a church, the special benefit that it receives is not the same as a residential parcel based on its use. q) Aesthetics Benefit. Churches are treated differently than residential parcels when determining the aesthetic benefit they receive as a result of the undergrounding of existing overhead utilities. Unlike residential parcels,parcels developed for religious use do not see an increase in marketability to a potential purchaser as a result of the undergrounding of' the existing overhead utilities. This is a result of the limited number of parcels that may be on the market and as a result there is not a direct increase in the desirability of a parcel where the utilities have been undergrounded compared to a similar parcel which is served by overhead utilities. However, some benefit can be attributed to the property from improved aesthetics, and it seems reasonable to attribute the benefits to that of a single family residence. 'rhe special benefit received by a typical residential parcel is related to the uncicrgrounding of the overhead utilities that are adjacent to the parcels frontage. A typical residential parcel within the Assessment District has an average frontage of approximately 75 feet which provides ingress/egress to the parcel along the streets where the utilities will be undergrounded and is assigned one(1) benefit point. Therefore, based upon the frontage of this,parcel in relationship to the adjacent single family residential parcels three(3)benefit points are assigned to this parcel for aesthetic benefit. q) J)nj °oved SufetyBenefit.The church property receives an improved safety benefit from the utide rgraundirig project which will remove the fixed obstructions along the streets which provide access to the property and the potential for delay by emergency responders that Will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipment if an overhead utility line is in the way until it has been de-energized. The structures on this parcels will not benefit from the elimination of potential property damage from downed utility lines and poles since the existing overhead utilities are not located near any existing or potential future structures. Since the primary benefit for theseparcels is related to the removal of the fixed obstructions alone the streets used for ingress/egress, the benefit to these parcels is related to a residential property based upon the number of trips generated per day. Based upon an average of' 10 trips per day for a typical residential parcel and an average of 5.0 trips per 1,000 sq. ft. per day for houses of worship and quadruple that rate for days of assembly (estimated useable building area of approximately 12,500 sq. ft.),this parcels is the equivalent of residential units. Since the benefit received by this parcel is only related to the removal of tyre fixed obstructions and the reduction in potential delays for emergency responders. "rhe safety benefit is reduced by 75% rather than the 50% for a residential parcel since the hours of use or occupancy are less than for residential parcels. A total of 2.25 benefit points is assigned for the safety benefit.

As there is a single structUre on the property served by the existing utilities; the Enhanced Reliability Benefit is considered to be the same is for a single family home and 1.0 benefit point is assigned. e) Removal gl'Obstwuctions to View.The existing overhead utilities do not impact the primary or secondary views from the structure or outside use areas and no benefit points have been assigned for this benefit factor. 3. Belvedere'Tennis Club A.N. 109 (Assessor's Parcel Numbers (APN) 055-201-36) is a tennis club and encompasses roughly 3.61 acres. The main entrance to the site is located oil Tiburon Boulevard. which has already been undergrounded. The tennis club receives utility services from the existing overhead Utilities which are located within Richardson Bay Lineal Park, which rs adjacent to the rear ofthe property. The benefit points assigned to this parcel are based Upon the proposed relocation of the Point of utility service from the existing overhead facilities at the rear of the parcel to a location adjacent to Tiburon Boulevard. In addition, the Sanitary District has an easement on the parcel and has a small building which houses a pump station for the Sanitary District. BccanSe this property is a not used for residential uses, it has different levels of benefit based on how it is used. a) Aesthetics Benefit. Non-residential uses on a parcel are treated differently when determining any aesthetic consideration: Since the ingress/egress to the parcel is off of Tiburon Boulevard and there are no overhead utilities adjacent to the parcel along-l'iburon Boulevard it will receive no aesthetic,benefit from the utilities being un(iergrounded. In addition as there is no requirement for vehicles to use streets where the existing overhead Utilities will be undergrounded to access this parcel,zero (0) benefit points are assii7ned for the aesthetics benefit. h) Lnprovccl Safety .benefit. This property receives an improved safety benefit from the relocation of the existing overhead utilities at the rear of the property to new underground facilities within/ad.jacent to the Tiburon Boulevard public right-of-way. Based upon a street frontage of 75 feet for a typical residential parcel. the 590 linear feet of overhead Utilities along the rear of the parcel adjacent to the linear park is the equivalent frontage fur 7.85 residential parcels. While the potential for darnage to the Tennis Club's facilities exist from downed wires or poles from the existing overhead Utilities, the benefit is less than for residential uses since the improvements which Would be damaged would be limited to fencing and ancillary structUures around the tennis courts. Since the parcel will not benefit from the removal of the fixed obstructions along the streets within (lie District and the potential for delay by emergency responders that will neither cross a downed power line not set up equipment if an overhead utility line is in the way Until it has been de-enen-,ized. the safety benefit is reduced by fifty percent(50%)which results in the assignment of3.925 benefit points for the improved safety benefit. 0 Enhoncecl Reliabilit'v Benefit. There are two (2) services on the property served by the existing utilities, the enhanced reliability benefit is based upon the number of services and 2.0 benefit points are assigned. In addition, there is a pump station owned by the DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only EDI Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon August 8,2017 Assessment District No,2017.1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 20 Richardson Bay Sanitary District that is located within an casement on A.N, 104 (Belvedere Tennis Club) that is served by the existing overhead utilities. The undergrounding of the existing utilities serving the pump station Will provide enhanced reliability. One (1) benefit point has been assigned for the enhanced reliability benefit for that use. cO Rcraro�-al q�'Qbstr uctioi�s to vieia-. The existing overhead utilities vvltich are adjacent to the parcel along the Linear Park Trail impact the views of Richardson Bay from the clubhouse and outside use areas. Based upon a street frontage of 75 feet for a typical residential parcel; within the Assessment District,the 590 linear feet of overhead utilities adjacent to the linear park is the equivalent of the frontage for 7.85 residential parcels. A total of 1.963 benefit points have been assigned. This represents 20% of the total benefit points that would be assigned to the equivalent number of residential parcels since. the Assessment Engineer has determined that special benefit received by the parcel Will be significantly less than a residential parcel with a similar impact to its primary vic�vshcd. This is based Upon a finding that the undergrounding of the existing utilities will have a much smaller impact on the desirability of the parcel to a potential purchaser when compared to the impact that the undergrounding of the existing utilities has on residential parcels. Vacant Properties For purposes of calculating the benefit received from the utility tindergrounding project, a vacant parcel is considered developed to its highest potential and connected to the system. "fhe following is a brief discussion of the vacant property within this District. For A.N. 24, Assessor's Parcel Number(APN) 039-111-55) a map to sub-divide this parcel into two (2) parcels has been submitted to the Town and the parcel has a high potential for residential development. Since it is likely that two (2) residences will be constructed on the parcel once sub- division has been approved,benefit points are assigned to this parcel based upon the future subdivision of the parcel for residential use. Since the new parcels will obtain utility serviCCS from the cxisung utilities located on Via Pariso, no benefit points will be assigned for the enhanced reliability benefit. Benefit points have been assigned to this parcel for the aesthetics. improved safety and primary view enhancement benefits based upon the level of development (2 residential units) that would be permitted as described in the previous section. Properties Exeltided fry»it Assessment In addition to the parcels described above, there are three (3) parcels within the hounciaries of the District that do not receive a special benefit from the undergrounding project and therefore have not been assigned benefit points. The reasoning is as follows: 1. A.N. 55B (APN 055-183-30) is a sliver parcel that cannot be developed and, as such will not benefit from the improvements. 2. A.N. 1 15B(APN 055-201-32) is a sliver parcel that cannot be developed and, as SUCK Will not benefit From the improvements. DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only EAI Harris & Associates Town of Tiburon August 8,2017 Assessment District No.2017.1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 21 3. A.N. 1 17B (APN 055-201-25) is a sliver parcel that serves as a private roadvvay to serve A.N 1 17A (APN 055-201-02) and it cannot be further developed. As such, this parcel will not receive a benefit from the improvements. ASSESSMENT APPORTIONMENT The special benefit received by parcels within the Assessment District has been weighted ;according to the betterment received by them based upon a weighting of the benefits as shown beloxa: District Aesthetics Benefit 20% Safety Benefit 10% Enhanced Reliability Benefit 10% View Enhancement 60% The weighting shown is based upon the judgement and experience of the Assessment Engineer, a field review of the parcels within the Assessment District by the Assessment Engineer, public testimony and by the confirmation of this report by the Town Council based upon the absence of a majority protest. The amount to be assessed to each parcel within the Assessment District that receives a special benefit has been apportioned to each parcel in proportion to the benefit points assigned to the parcel as a percentage of the total benefit points for each benefit factor. The general benefit derived fi-om the improvements as calculated in this report have been removed fi-onl the total amount to be assessed. The .assessment on each parcel does not exceed the costs of the proportional special benefit conferred on the parcel. There are no publically owned parcels within the boundaries of the Assessment District. incidental Expenses and Financial Costs have been assessed to the entire Assessment District on a pro rata basis relative to the total construction cost allocations. The assessment to be levied upon each parcel is shown in Exhibit 1.

Staff Analysis of flawthorne Under4>rounding Project Estimate This attachment to the Hawthorne Undergrounding staff report addresses the engineer's estimate for the proposed Hawthorne undergrounding project. It is important to note the District Engineer is responsible for the estimate, and they have used their best professional judgement in its development. However, staff notes that at the August 30, 2017 meeting with residents, there were a number of questions and concerns raised about the estimate that staff believes were not adequately addressed. Therefore, staff is providing Council the following analysis to provide additional, more detailed, information regarding many of the questions, observations and objections the residents voiced at the August 30, 2017 meeting. This report will discuss the following items in order: 1. Understanding Estimating Accuracy–an overview 2. A discussion of the differences in the May 2016 estimate and the August 2017 estimate. This includes details in how the August 2017 estimate was created. 3. A discussion of contingency and whether the estimate is too conservative. 4. A look at the overall estimate, the bottom line, to determine if it is reasonable. 5. Summary &review Understanding Estimating Accuracy In order to better understand the engineer's estimate, it is useful to understand, in general,the estimating process, and resulting expected accuracy at various estimating levels. The AACE (formerly American Association of Cost Engineering)are the industry professionals regarding cost estimating and total cost management. Their Recommended Practice No. 56R-08 provides an approximate representation of the relationship of specific design input data and project design maturity to the estimate accuracy and methodology used to produce the cost estimate. Table 1 below provides the expected accuracy corresponding to various levels, or maturity, of project design and their associated estimating methods.

The expected accuracy is the typical variation after the application of contingency. Historically, this level of accuracy provides an 80%confidence level that the actual cost will fall within the bounds of the low and high ranges. In addition to the maturity of project design, estimate accuracy is also driven by factors such as the technical complexity of the project,the availability of appropriate cost reference information and the inclusion of appropriate contingency. May 2016 vs. Current August 20-17 Estimate InOuded in the 'rtlirninary Enf4ineers Report. One comment echoed a number of times at the August 30, 2017 property owners meeting was in regard to the large difference between the following two estimates: 1. An estimate developed by Harris and Associates in May 2016 that was used to inform petitions. (May 2016 Estimate) 2. The 35%Design Estimate developed in August 2017 and used in the Preliminary Assessment Engineer's Report(August 2017 Estimate) To better understand this difference, it is important to understand the history of this project, particularly regarding the difference in maturity level of project design used in the two estimates. May 2016 Estimate Proponents of the project first approached staff in early 2015. At this time, staff indicated a rough cost estimate to use would be $1,OO011ineal foot of trench. Based on this, the proponents developed the initial petitions and included a project cost estimate of$63M. This was based on the proponents estimate the project would require approximately 6,300 lineal feet of trench. By Feb/March 2016 the proponents had collected approximately 75 petitions that included the $6.3M figure, and recognizing this number exceeded 60% of the parcels in the proposed district, were prepared to move on to the next step in the process. Subsequently staff determined that, in addition to the requirement that petitions from 60%of the parcels in the proposed district be submitted, the petitions submitted would also have to represent over 50% of the land area. The former being a requirement of Town policy, with the latter required under State Law. At this point, the petitions gathered did not meet the land area requirement,meaning the proponents still needed additional petitions to meet the minimum requirements. It was also clear at this point the estimate of 6,300 lineal feet of trench was inaccurate, and at a minimum, the project would include approximately 7,400 lineal feet of trench. After consulting with Bond Counsel, it was determined any new petitions should include a revised cost estimate, and property owners who had signed the earlier petitions, with the$6.3M cost estimate, would be mailed a notice alerting them of the revised cost estimate when it was available. This was an informational notice only, and did not require the individuals to resign petitions. To obtain a revised estimate for these required petitions, the Town agreed to pay Harris &Associates for a very high-level estimate of probable project costs. It is very important to note at this point there was no actual design, only a proposed district boundary and an estimate of the trench length, (using the definitions in Table I above,this estimate was a Class 5 Estimate). 2 Harris provided a line item estimate of the Joint Trench Construction Costs for the project based on recent bid results for an actual project in Belvedere, with these results adjusted for the increased estimated size, and associated unit costs, of the proposed Hawthorne Project. The next part of the estimate involved utility costs and incidental costs. Back in 2007, Harris had completed a Preliminary Assessment Engineer's Report (2007 Report) for an earlier attempt to form an undergrounding assessment district, which included a portion of the current proposed Hawthorne Undergrounding District. The construction portion of the estimate from above was 55%higher than the construction portion of the estimate in the 2007 Report. Therefore, estimates for unknown line item costs, like utilities and incidental expenses, were taken from the 2007 Report and increased by 55%. Some project costs were better defined. This included design costs and estimated financing costs. Ultimately, this resulted in the May 2016 Estimate totaling $8,870,000. Over the next couple of months,the project proponents were able to gather approximately 8 additional petitions. This was enough to meet the 50% land area requirement previously discussed. On January 4, 2017, Council unanimously approved a Resolution of Intent to form the District, appointed Harris and Associates as District Engineer, and authorized the preparation of the Preliminary Engineers Report. Estimate Included in Preliminary Engineers Report(August 2017) In the Preliminary Engineer's Report,the Hawthorne design is at the 35% design level although, unlike many design projects at 35%,there has been no geotechnical study done on the site. Notwithstanding this issue, a more detailed estimate was possible, with unit costs taken from recent Belvedere undergrounding bid documents and other undergrounding projects in Piedmont and other jurisdictions. Still,this is at best a Class 3 estimate as defined in Table 1 above. The expected accuracy of a Class 3 estimate is -15%to +20%. The expected accuracy is the typical variation in low and high ranges after the application of contingency. This level of accuracy typically provides an 80%confidence level that the actual cost will fall within the bounds of the low and high ranges. Based on a more advanced level of design and additional cost information from other projects, the August 2017 Estimate included in the Preliminary Engineers report totals approximately$12.45M. Differences Betfveen the May 2016 and August 2016 Estimates Having discussed how the estimates provided by Harris in May 2016 and August 2017 were produced, this next section looks at the differences between the estimates. There is a 40% overall difference between the May 2016 estimate and the August 2017 estimate. This section will discuss: 1. Scope Change and inflation 2. Differences in individual construction line items. 3. Differences in total construction costs. 4. Differences in incidental expenses, particularly construction management. 5. Differences in financing costs. Scope Change and Inflation As the project has developed from May 2016 to August 2017, there have been three differences in the project scope and its timing that affect the cost estimate. These are the length of the trench, environmental mitigation and inflation. As described below these changes would be expected to increase the cost of the May 2016 estimate by a total of 20%. 3 Lerr(�,th of trench The estimated length of the trench for construction increased by 10%. This is largely due to PG&E placing the end pole further way from the project than anticipated resulting in additional trenching in Tiburon Blvd. at perhaps the most expensive place to trench in the entire project. Environmental Mitigation Cost There were no environmental mitigations costs included in the May 2016 Estimate. At the time, there were no environmental mitigations costs anticipated. However, once design began it became apparent that there were cultural resource concerns. This has been confirmed by Tiburon receiving our first ever request for consultation by the Graton Rancheria for a construction project. This increased the cost by $250,000. This is cuivalent to 3.8% of the total construction cost in the May 2016 Estimate. Inflation When Harris submitted their original proposal, it was based on construction in the summer of 2017, and the estimate provided in May 2016 assumed that same construction timeframe. If the project moves forward, construction is now anticipated in 2019; adding two years of inflation at 3.1 percent per year, or a total of 6.2%. Differences in individual construction line items Joint Trench Construction Costs The joint trench construction cost(cost for trenching infrastructure work done by the Town's Contractor), including contingency, increased by 8%. This is despite an increase in trench length of 10% and an inflation increase of 6.2% as discussed above. PG&E Costs The estimated cost of PG&E work increased substantially, from $704,530 to $2,385,171. The PG&E cost in the August 2017 estimate by Harris is nearly 240% more than the PG&E cost in the May 2016 estimate by Harris. The May 2016 estimate was based on a factored increase of PG&E costs proportional to the increase in joint trench construction cost from the 2007 Hawthorne Terrace Preliminary Engineering Report referenced earlier in this document. The estimate in the 2007 Hawthorne Terrace Undergrounding Assessment Engineer's Report which was transferred to the May 2016 estimate was an early design estimate provided by PG&E. Historically, PG&E has had difficulty in accurately estimating projects in the early design phase. In the 2003 Del Mar project, PG&E estimated the cost at$452,375. That project did not move forward at the time,but was re-initiated in 2010,with the district downsized by 26 percent. PG&E requested an additional payment in the amount of$1,515,000. This was 334% higher than the original PG&E estimate, even though the 2010 district was 26% smaller. In the recent Town initiated Rule 20B project along Tiburon Blvd. completed in 2015, PG&E repeatedly provided an estimate of$135,137 for its portion of the project. However, once 100% plans were received by PG&E the cost was increased to $318,811, about 235%higher than the 4 estimate provided earlier in the design process. Partly as a result of these experiences in Tiburon, PG&E will no longer provide cost estimates at this level of design. As mentioned above, the April 2016 estimate factored the 2007 PG&E provided number by 55%. This 2007 PG&E cost was similar to the Del Mar cost. If PG&E made the same level of error in the 2007 Hawthorne District estimate as they did in the Del Mar District, then the true cost of the 2007 Hawthorne District would have been$1,972K. Adding 55%to this would result in a cost of$3,058K for the PG&E work. The August 2017 Estimate,based on the 35% design, includes estimated quantities for the major electrical components. Therefore, a more detailed estimate was possible than in the May 2016 estimate. Although PG&E would not provide an estimate, they did provide actual unit costs for various components and labor costs per linear foot of trench for the Del Mar project and actual labor inflation costs. Using these actual costs and inflation rate and applying them to the 35% design for the Hawthorne project, Harris provided an estimate of the PG&E costs. This was not a linear estimate (e.g. factoring by length)rather, it was a semi-detailed unit cost estimate, which AACE states is typical for this level of design. As noted above, this estimate is nearly 240% more than the earlier estimate,just as the preliminary Del Mar costs were about 235% more than the early PG&E estimate of costs for that project. At the August 30, 2017 informational meeting, several speakers asked if Harris had looked at the costs in of the latest Belvedere project to inform PG&E estimate for Hawthorne, which they had not. Harris has subsequently obtained these costs from PG&E. The labor cost per linear foot in the Belvedere project was much greater than in the Del Mar project. Applying this per lineal foot PG&E cost to the 2017 Estimate would increase it by an additional $990,000. In Belvedere, the ratio of utility costs to joint trench construction cost for the Lower Golden Gate Assessment District, Mid-San Rafael Assessment District, and Pine Avenue Assessment District were 38%, 62% and 36%respectively, or an average of 45.3%. In the August 2017 estimate,the ratio of total utility cost to joint trench construction cost is 43%. In summary: 1. The April 2016 estimate was done without design and by factoring PG&E provided costs in the 2007 Hawthorne Report. 2. The 2007 Hawthorne report PG&E number was similar to the Del Mar PG&E number, which was later found to be low by 334%. Taking this into account would result in a PG&E estimated cost of$3,058K. 3. The August 2017 costs were based on actual unit costs of material and labor and inflation rates provided by PG&E for Del Mar and applied to the 35%Hawthorne design. This resulted in a cost of$2,385K. 4. Using actual PG&E unit and labor costs for the latest Belvedere project and applying them to the 35%design results in an estimated cost of$3,375K. 5. Total utility costs of 43% are in the ball park compared to other projects. AT&T Costs The estimated cost of AT&T work increased from $77,327 to $121,517. The AT&T estimate in the May 2016 was based on a factored increase proportional to the increase in joint trench construction in the 2007 Report. 5 The estimate in the August 2017 Estimate was provided by AT&T. Comcast costs The estimated cost of Comcast work increased from $77,327 to $138,185. The Comcast estimate in the May 2016 Estimate was based on a factored increase proportional to the increase in joint trench construction in the 2007 Hawthorne Terrace Preliminary Engineering Report. The estimate in the Preliminary Engineer's Report was provided by Comcast. Differences an Total Construction Costs The above section discussed individual line item differences in the construction costs. This section combines much of the information above, and discusses the overall construction costs in the May 2016 Estimate and the August 2017 Estimate. Total construction costs in the August 2017 Estimate used in the Preliminary Engineer's Report are $9,028,275. The total construction costs used in the May 2016 estimate was $6,517,944. This is an increase of about 38%. Table 2 below provides a more detailed breakdown of the construction costs, as well as comparison of these costs between the 2 estimates. Table 2 May 2016 Engineer's Report Estimate Estimate Increase Joint Trench with Contingenc 3 $5,658,760 $6,133,402 $474,642 PG&E $704,530 $2,385,171 $1,680,641 AT&T I $77,327 $121,517 $44,190 Comcast $77,327 $138,185 $60,858 Environmental Mitigation 1 $0 $250,000 $250,000 Total Construction Cost $6,517,944 $9,028,275 $2,510,331 Incidental expenses Total incidental expenses used in the August 2017 Estimate are $1.78M. The total incidental expenses used in the May 2016 Estimate was$1.33M million. This is an increase of about 34%. This is commensurate with the percentage increase in construction costs discussed above. At the August 30t" information meeting, a specific question was asked regarding construction management costs, and whether they were too high. The construction management costs in the May 2016 were taken from the 2007 report, factored for the 55% increase in construction costs. The construction management costs in the 2007 report were estimated at about 6% of construction costs. When doing a more detailed estimate at 35% design, Harris looked at other projects they had recently worked on and increased the construction management costs to 8% of construction. Staff notes that the ratio of actual cost of construction management to actual cost of construction on the Del Mar Undergrounding project and Lyford Cove Undergrounding project was 10.3% 6 and 9.6%respectively, an average of 10%. This is greater than the 8%used by Harris in the August 2017 estimate. The California Multi-Agency CIP Benchmarking Study (Dec 2016) indicates for projects of this size completed between 2011 and 2015, the total construction management cost of projects averaged about 17% of the total construction cost, over double the amount included in the August 2017 Estimate. Financing Costs Financing costs included in the May 2016 estimate totaled $1.02M, with that figure rising to $1.64M in the August 2017 Estimate, an increase of approximately$620,000, or 60%. The financing cost figures in the Engineers Report were furnished by Sperry Capital, the Town's Municipal Financial Advisor on this project. As noted in the Staff Report for this agenda item, the Town hired a Financial Advisor for this project at the specific request of project proponents. Contingency—Is the Estimate Too Conservative? This report has discussed the origin of the May 2016 and August 2017 estimates and the differences between them. People have questioned whether the 30% construction contingency included in the Engineers Report is too conservative (too high). The contingency at this point in the design must cover three things: 1. Estimating accuracy due to the level of design(discussed previously in this memo). 2. Bid contingency, which covers the bidding climate and number of bidders. 3. Contingency during construction. Estimating accuracy due to the level of design As noted above,the August 2017 estimate is based on a 35%design without a geotechnical report. At best, this is a Class 3 estimate as defined in Table 1 above. We would expect the August 2017 estimate to be accurate within a range of-15% to+20%of the estimate, 80%of the time after the application of a reasonable contingency. Bid contingency (Predicting the number of bidders) The cost estimate assumes a reasonable number of bidders. Competitive Bidding is receiving responsive bids from at least five (5) or more General Contractors and three (3) or more responsive bids from Major Subcontractors or Trades. Without Competitive Bidding, Contractor bids can and have increased by 100%. Table 3 Number Percentage of Bids Differential 1 +25 to 100% 2 - 3 +10 to 25% 4 - 5 0to+10% 6 - 7 Oto -10% 8 or more -10 to -20% 7 In short, if we do not get 4 to 5 bidders, we can expect costs might go up another 15%. We would need the contingency to cover this cost plus a contingency for costs during construction. The Town received six bidders for the Del Mar undergrounding. However, the Lyford Hygeia undergrounding, received two bids the first time and three bids the second, after the supplemental assessment. On the last undergrounding project completed by the Town, from Mar West to Lyford, there was only one bidder. During the last year, both local municipalities and Caltrans have noted numerous bids coming in at 20% over engineer's estimate due to the bidding climate. It is uncertain whether this bidding climate will continue. Contingency During Construction (Based on Past Projects) The Town of Tiburon has had supplemental assessments on the past two undergrounding projects. The Supplemental Preliminary Engineer's Reports for the last two neighborhood undergrounding projects used a 23% contingency. This estimate and contingency level was based on full 100% design and bid numbers. The actual change order rate after award for the joint trench construction for the Del Mar project was 28%. The actual change order rate after award for the joint trench construction for the Lyford project was 19%. This is an average of 23.5%. Is a 30% contingency reasonable? As stated above, the contingency at this point in the design must cover three things: 1. Estimating accuracy due to the level of design. Based on the above the appropriate contingency for this could be about 20%. 2. Estimating the bid. This factor has to do with bid climate and the number of bidders, as discussed above. If the bidding climate is the same as for the Lyford Hygeia project, we can expect an increase of+10%to+25%. 3. Contingency during construction. The last two undergrounding projects have had supplemental assessments. At the time of the supplemental assessments,the projects had 100% design and had been bid. The contingency used at that point in the Assessment Engineer's Report was 23%. The actual change order rates for those projects averaged 23.5%. To determine whether a 30% contingency is reasonable,perhaps we can consider a level of contingency for each of. 1) level of design, 2)bid climate, and 3) construction that would equal 30%. The below discusses contingencies of 5% for design level, 10% for bid contingency and 15% for construction contingency. I. Estimating accuracy due to the level of design: 5%. Using a 5% contingency provides one quarter of the 20% variability in a class 3 estimate. 2. Estimating the bid: 10%. In the table 3 above,the bid contingency for 2-3 bidders and 4- 5 bidders meets at 10%. In the past year, there have been numerous reports of projects coming in at 20% over estimate or greater. This contingency would be half that value. 8 3. Contingency during construction: 15%. Normal contingency used in construction projects in Tiburon is 15%. This is lower than the actual change order rate for the last two undergrounding projects which averaged 23.5%. Is the Overall Cost Estimate Reasonable? The report has looked at the origins of the May 2016 estimate and the August 2017 estimate as well as differences between them. During the above discussion, a number of line items for the August 2017 estimate were discussed and how they were developed. In addition, the report has discussed whether the 30% contingency on the 35% design used for the August 2017 estimate is too high. This section of the report takes a higher I0,000-foot view of the August 2017 estimate and asks whether the bottom line is reasonable. This will be done by discussing two things: 1. Cost per linear foot 2. Comparison with the estimate in the 2007 Hawthorne Terrace Preliminary Engineer's Report Cost per linear foot There have been complaints that the per linear foot cost of$1,317 is much higher than averages. We note that early in the project the Town stated that cost would be at least $1,000 per linear foot but also stated, and provided written information to the proponents showing that, the San Francisco DPW stated that"As a point of reference only, in 2009 the estimated cost for undergrounding residential neighborhoods is $1,360 per linear foot of trenching." Staff notes that inflation from 2009 to 2019 is 45%(ENR Construction Cost Index;the Caltrans Fisher index is greater). Comparison with the 2007 Hawthorne Terrace estimate As noted that previously, there was a Preliminary Assessment Engineer's Report done for the Hawthorne Terrace area in 2007. That District did not move forward as proponents felt the costs were excessive. The Hawthorne Terrace Boundary was 89 of the 120 parcels in the current Boundary. The 2007 district did not include the western part of Hawthorne Drive,Palmer Court or the Belvedere Tennis Club. It did not include the poles along the Old Rail Trail or any trenching in Tiburon Blvd. The 2007 Hawthorne Terrace District was the third of three districts in Tiburon active at that time. The 2007 Hawthorne Terrace District Preliminary Engineer's Report had the advantage of data from bid openings for the two previous districts. The total cost of the 2007 Hawthorne Terrace District was estimated at$5.6M estimated for construction in 2008. It had 4,840 feet of mainline(center of street)trench. The current project has 7,540 feet of mainline(center of street) trench. That is a factor of 1.56. The inflation rate from ENR CCI for 2008 to 2019 is 50% (2008=8310; 2017 = 11696; plus 3.1%for next two years to 2019). Similarly, the inflation rate for Caltrans projects using the Fisher index results in an inflation increase of 57%. Just looking at these very simple parameters, $5.6*1.56*1.50= $13.1 million. 9 The 2007 Hawthorne Terrace District had 89 parcels compared to 120 parcels in the current district, a ratio of 1.35. Again, using the cost of$5.6 million and an inflation factor of 50%, the adjusted cost for the current district,just looking at parcel differences would be ($5.6M*1.34*1.5) = $11.3 million. These simple comparisons might be considered low for three reasons: 1. This assumes trenching in Tiburon Blvd is the same cost as other roads (it is likely more expensive) 2. It ignores the additional $250,000 in environmental mitigation costs. 3. It ignores the fact that the 2007 report used PG&E costs similar to Del Mar which PG&E later stated in 2010 were low by a factor of 3.3. This alone would add over$1 M to the cost. In summary, the current estimate is similar to the previous Hawthorne Terrace District Estimate in 2007, adjusted for the size of the district and inflation. Summary This report has looked at a number of things, including comparing the May 2016 estimate to the August 2017 estimate. What matters at this point is whether Council believes the August 2017 estimate is a reasonable estimate of the actual costs of construction with a reasonable contingency. In this regard, a brief summary of the above might be useful. We discussed how the August 2017 estimate was created: 1. Joint trench construction costs were based on the 35%plans for the Hawthorne District and actual unit bid prices from a recent job in Belvedere as well as undergrounding bids in Piedmont and other projects. 2. PG&E costs were based on the 35%plans for the Hawthorne District and actual unit costs for PG&E items and labor costs per linear foot of trench for the Del Mar project, with labor inflation all provided by PG&E. A check estimate that used unit costs from a Belvedere undergrounding project would increase the cost. 3. AT&T and Comcast estimates were provided by these companies. 4. Incidental costs were based on actual contract amounts and historic needs, Construction management was 8% of total construction cost, less than the actual percentage in both the Del Mar and Lyford Cove Undergrounding Districts and half of the CIP Benchmarking Study. 5. Financing costs per provided by Sperry Capital. We have discussed whether the 30% contingency is reasonable for a 35% level design and looked at contingency standards for level of design, bid risk and contingency during construction. We have compared the total costs in the August 2017 estimate to experience in San Francisco and the Preliminary Engineer's Report for the 2007 Hawthorne Terrace Project. 10 $�ltu S-z-c. 1 aye-r `a"3 � �9 � i,. •��1�r °� r c c `a��"��.��-�sx,F'�' ,le-�Fri .1✓�./�Ys�°�` rab �, � ' e � ����'���'�'✓'✓?moi"`'% ''��` �"�' �; r c � c i it i iENGINEER'S d 1a r Assessment District No. 2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergroun`ding District)'' Prepared under the provisions of the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 Forthe TOWN OF TIBURON County of Marin, California November 1, 2017 Harris & Associates EXHIBIT NO.

TOWN CLERK TOWN OF TIBURON STATE OF CALIFORNIA DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 7 Part I Description of Improvements The following provides a description of the public improvements proposed to be constructed,installed or acquired under the provisions of the Act as shown on the Preliminary Plans on file in the office of the Town Engineer. The project includes the construction of the public improvements, including all planning, design, construction administration and general administration services,the acquisition of all necessary rights of way, the acquisition of licenses, franchises and permits and the construction of all auxiliary work necessary and/or convenient to the accomplishment thereof, in accordance with the final plans and specifications to be approved by the Town of Tiburon prior to the start of construction. The construction of the public improvements may be phased as necessary and convenient for the Town of Tiburon. Phasing will be undertaken in a manner that results in a complete and functional portion of each system described below. The following improvements are proposed to be constructed and installed in the general location referred to as the Town of Tiburon Assessment District No. 2017-I (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) (the "Assessment District") and will include: 1. . Construction of mainline underground power, telephone and cable conduit, with appurtenant manholes.,pull boxes and transformers and like structures. 2. Construction of service conduit and appurtenances to property line. 3. Installation of new conductor within said conduit and underground structures by the utility companies. 4. Installation of replacement street lights. 5. Removal of existing overhead power, telephone and cable wires,poles and streetlights. The improvements will be designed by PG&E, AT&T, Comcast, and the Town of Tiburon (joint trench).The Town of Tiburon will inspect the work to ensure conformance to Town ordinances,rules, warrants,regulations, standards and specifications where applicable. Each owner of property located within the Assessment District will be responsible for arranging for and paying for work on his or her property necessary to connect facilities constructed by the public utilities in the public streets and alleys to the points of connection on the private property. Conversion of individual service connections on private property is not included in the work to be funded by the Assessment District. The estimated time for completion of the undergrounding of the utilities is 36 months after the formation of Assessment District. Construction is estimated to begin approximately 18 months after the formation of the Assessment District. Property owners will be required to provide necessary underground connections within 120 days of the completion of the underground facilities.

Section 4 of Article XIIID provides that only special benefits are assessable and the local agency levying the assessment must separate the general benefits from the special benefits. It also provides that parcels within a district that are owned or used by any public agency,the State of California or-the United States shall not be exempt from assessment unless the agency can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that those publicly owned parcels in fact receive no special benefit.In addition, Section 4 requires that a parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional,special benefit conferred on that parcel. Neither the Act nor the State Constitution specifies-the method or formula that should be used to apportion the costs to properties in any special assessment district proceedings. The responsibility for recommending an apportionment of the costs to properties which specially benefit from the improvements rests with the Assessment Engineer,who is appointed for the purpose of making an analysis of the facts and determining the correct apportionment of the assessment obligation. In order to apportion the assessments to each parcel within the boundaries of the assessment district in an amount which does not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit which it will receive from the improvements,, an analysis has been completed and is used as the basis for apportioning costs to each parcel within the Assessment District. The approval of the assessments rests with the Town Council. The Council renders its decision after hearing testimony and evidence presented at a public hearing and tabulating the assessment ballots, which are mailed to all record owners of property within the Assessment District. Only ballots delivered to the Town Clerk prior to the close of the public hearing are tabulated. The Council's findings must include whether or not the assessment spread is consistent with the requirements of Article XIIID in that the assessment on each parcel is proportional to and no greater than the special benefits received by such parcel. The following sections set forth the methodology used to apportion the costs of the improvements to each parcel. SEPARATION OF GENERAL AND SPECIAL BENEFIT Under Article XIIID, only special benefits may be assessed, and it is the responsibility of the Assessment Engineer to identify, quantify, and exclude general benefits from the assessment that is apportioned to parcels in proportion to the special benefit they will receive from the improvements. As stated in the "Proposition 218 Guide for Special Districts" prepared by the California Special Districts Association, the requirement that a public agency separate the general benefits from the special benefits helps ensure that the special benefit requirement is met. As defined in Article XIIID, "special benefit"means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large. The benefits associated with the undergrounding of overhead utilities are related to increased DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only Harris & Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 10 reliability, improved neighborhood aesthetics, enhanced safety and the removal of obstructions to view within the Assessment District and potentially for areas outside of the Assessment District. The specific location and nature of the undergrounding project will determine if the benefits are a"general benefit" or provide a "special benefit" to parcels within the Assessment District, or a combination of both. GENERAL BENEFIT Because of the localized nature of the improvements within the Assessment District and the small number of parcels that will be impacted by the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities along roadways providing ingress/egress to the parcels within the District, the Assessment Engineer has determined the benefits described in the following section represent special benefits that are conferred on parcels within the Assessment District, and that there are no "general benefits" that will be conveyed to parcels outside the boundaries of the Assessment`District, or to the public at large associated with the undergrounding of the overhead utilities within the Assessment District except as described in the findings below: • Aesthetics Benefit. The Assessment Engineer has determined that there are no aesthetic benefits which represent general benefit or benefits to the public at large. This is based upon the fact that the majority of the utility poles and overhead facilities that will be undergroundcd are located along the local streets within the Assessment District that provide ingress/egress to parcels within the District. Those local streets are not used'by'"through traffic" to reach destinations that are outside the District. The removal of the overhead utilities and poles will provide an aesthetic benefit for the parcels within the District which the Assessment Engineer has determined represents a special benefit to parcels within the District. In addition to the removal of the existing overhead utilities on the local streets within the District, there are also overhead lines on several utility poles which,will be removed that are located adjacent to the Old Rail Trail at the rear of the parcel owned by the Belvedere Tennis Club, and several poles that are near Tiburon Boulevard but away from the edge of the pavement. The Assessment Engineer has determined that the removal of those poles does not provide an improvement in aesthetics that would represent a general benefit to the community or the public at large. The existing utilities do not impact aesthetics for park visitors related to views of the bay since they are located on the opposite side of the trail. For traffic on Tiburon Boulevard the existing utilities are generally located almost one hundred feet to several hundred feet from the edge of pavement,and are largely screened by the tennis club's facilities which are located between Tiburon Boulevard and the existing utilities. The removal of the existing overhead utilities near the Old Rail Trail will not result in increased usage of the Richardson Bay Linear Park by visitors who had not previously used the park because of the visual blight caused by the existing overhead utilities, or result in increased traffic along Tiburon Boulevard because of improved views looking towards the bay. While the Town has identified its desire to remove all the poles along the Old Rail Trail and Tiburon Boulevard,the Assessment Engineer has determined that the undergrounding of those utility poles does not provide a general benefit to all parcels within the Town or to the public at large of the type that must be separated from special benefits under the requirements of Proposition 218. The Assessment Engineer's review of studies completed by a number of organizations and public entities found that the undergrounding of utilities did not provide an DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 11 economic benefit to parcels not within the Assessment District or the community at large. The studies found that the cost of undergrounding utilities was many times the value or economic benefit to the community, that the benefit to the public at large was not quantifiable, and that there was no economic benefit to the community related to increased business expenditures or tourism as a result of the undergrounding. • Enhanced Reliability Benefit. The Assessment Engineer has determined that there is no general benefit that will be conveyed to parcels outside of the Assessment District, or to the public at large related to enhanced reliability. This is based upon industry data that shows there is little difference in the total "out of service" time (the total service interruption time for all outages measured by the frequency of service interruptions and the time to repair) for customers served by overhead systems versus those served by underground utilities. While the undergrounding of an existing overhead utility generally results in a reduction in the frequency of service interruptions, the time to restore service in an underground utility is longer due to the difficulty in identifying the location of system outages and the time required to complete repairs. Because of this, the total "out of service" time is comparable for overhead and underground utility systems. The result is that parcels outside of the District will not see a reduction in "out of service" time as a result of the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities within the Assessment District. In addition to looking at "out of service" time, the ability of the utility to restore service to parcels outside of the Assessment District in the event of damage to the utilities (whether overhead or underground)within the District was also reviewed Based upon redundancies in the system and PG&E's operation of the distribution system,power could be restored to parcels outside of the Assessment District prior to the repair of the damaged utilities within the Assessment District. Existing facilities outside of the District could be used to feed power to parcels outside of the District while repairs are being made. For example, although the utility lines located adjacent to the Old Rail Trail are part of PG&E's distribution system that provides power to downtown Tiburon,if one of those utility poles were damaged, PG&E could restore power to parcels outside of the A=ssessment District, including the downtown area, by "switching"power to restore service to parcels outside of the Assessment District prior to the completion of repairs. Similarly, if parcels outside the District are affected by a portion of the existing overhead facilities within Hilary Drive being damaged as a result of a vehicle hitting a utility pole, PG&E could restore power to those parcels prior to the completion of repairs. Finally,if portion of the overhead utilities within Rock Hill Road,north of Hillary Drive were damaged, no parcels outside the Assessment District would be impacted. Since the ability to restore service to parcels outside of the District is not improved as a result of undergrounding the utilities within the District, there is no enhanced reliability benefit to parcels outside of the Assessment District from undergrounding the existing overhead utilities within the District. • Removal of Obstructions to View. The Assessment Engineer has determined that the two (2) parcels that are owned by the Town of Tiburon which are outside the boundaries of the Assessment District will not receive a benefit from the relocation of the overhead utilities adjacent to the Old Rail Trail on those parcels. This is based upon the Assessment Engineer's determination that the overhead utilities that are located on the Belvedere Tennis Club's parcel do not obstruct views towards the bay for park users since they are located in the opposite direction. In addition, since there is no development currently on those parcels or that would DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only � Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 12 be allowed in the future that would benefit from the removal of obstructions to view from the existing utilities since the parcels are within the jurisdiction of the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission. ■ Safety Benefit. The safety benefit related to the undergrounding of the overhead facilities within the Assessment District is a result of the removal of the fixed obstructions (existing power poles, guy wires and related facilities) from the right-of-way, and the mitigation of the potential delay by emergency responders that will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipment if an overhead utility line is in the way until it has been de-energized. In addition, the threat to structures or property being damaged by downed utility lines and poles caused by earthquakes, high winds and other unforeseeable events is reduced by the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. The Assessment Engineer has deternuned that there is a general benefit to the public at large related to the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities located adjacent to the Old Rail Trail. The relocation and undergrounding of the utilities adjacent to the Old Rail Trail will provide increased safety to those using Richardson Bay Lineal Park by removing the risk of injury from coming in contact with downed utilities and the removal of the fixed obstructions that are located in proximity to the trail. Based upon a street frontage of 75 feet for a typical residential parcel,the 590 lineal-feet of overhead utilities adjacent to the Old Rail Trail is the equivalent of the frontage for 7.85 residential parcels. A total of 3.925 benefit points have been assigned for the general benefit which represents 50% of the benefit that would be assigned to the equivalent number of residential parcels since there are no structures that could be damaged by downed utility poles or lines, or damaged by vehicles hitting a utility pole. A contribution of$25,823 will be required to offset the general benefit related to the safety benefit associated with the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities along the Old Rail Trail. SPECIAL BENEFITS While the courts have found that a general enhancement of property value does not constitute "special benefit"(Silicon Malley;Taxpayers'Ass'n.v. Santa Clara Cnty. Open Space Authority) if an assessment district is narrowly drawn so that parcels that benefit in way that is particular and distinct from parcels outside of the district, or the public of large they are deemed to receive a special benefit. Specifically, the undergrounding of existing overhead utilities adjacent to parcels and the installation of new street lights on the streets which provide ingress/egress to each parcel provides a particular and distinct benefit to those parcels that is not realized by other parcels or to the public at large. The courts have found that the characterization of a benefit(special vs. general)may depend on whether parcels within a district receive a direct advantage from the improvement based upon their proximity to the improvement, or receive an "indirect, derivative advantage resulting from the overall public benefits of the improvement" (e.g., general enhancement of the district's property values). There are four (4) types of special benefit that parcels may receive as a result of the proposed undergrounding of the existing overhead utility facilities (power, telephone, street light and cable facilities) with underground facilities. ■ Aesthetics Benefit. Based upon the studies reviewed by the Assessment Engineer and his experience, the greatest benefit to parcels from the undergroLmding of overhead utilities is related to the improved neighborhood aesthetics which result from the undergrounding of the DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 13 existing overhead utilities within the Assessment District. The undergrounding of the overhead utilities enhances the aesthetics of the streetscape by removing the physical and visual impediments related to the existing overhead utilities within the right-of-way along the local streets, and will improve the visual environment for residential properties within the Assessment District. In addition, the removal of the overhead utilities within the Assessment District will bring the area surrounding each parcel closer to current development standards which require that all utilities be placed underground. This will increase the desirability of the parcels within the Assessment District to a potential purchaser when compared to a similar parcel served by overhead wires and utility poles. All of the parcels within the Assessment District will specially benefit from the removal of the overhead wires and utility poles serving the parcels within the boundaries of the Assessment District. • Enhanced Reliability Benefit. The installation of all newswires and new equipment installed underground within the Assessment District will reduce the frequency of localized service interruptions to both residential and non-residential parcels within the District due to the increased reliability of the upgraded facilities. In addition, the technology used in modern underground systems allow the utility to minimize the number of parcels impacted by an outage. Parcels which have not already undergrounded their service will also see a reduction in outages related to damages to their individual service lines from falling limbs during wind storms or other types of weather events or natural disaster since they will be required to be underground their utility service in order to connect to the new underground system. As a result, each parcel within the Assessment District will receive a special benefit related to enhanced reliability from the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities within the Assessment District that is not received by parcels outside of the District. ■ Removal of Obstructions:to View. Parcels which have water views are more desirable to purchasers,and the premium placed on a parcel with a water view is dependent upon the quality of the view. The removal of the existing overhead utilities which may be seen from within the structure or from outside living areas when looking towards Richardson Bay from the parcel will provide a special benefit to residential parcels within the Assessment District that will vary in proportion totheimpact the existing overhead utilities and poles have on their view. ■ Safety Benefit.The undergrounding of the overhead facilities within the District will specially benefit all parcels within the Assessment District in two ways from a safety perspective. The first relates to the elimination of the threat to structures or property, including any occupants within those structures, from being damaged or harmed by downed utility lines and poles caused by earthquakes, high winds and other unforeseeable events. The second relates to the removal of the fixed obstructions from the right-of-way, and the potential delay by emergency responders in an emergency that will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipment if an overhead utility line is in the way until it has been de-energized. As described in the Methodology section below, not all parcels receive these benefits to the same extent based upon their land use(residential versus non-residential),and their proximity to the existing overhead utilities that will be undergrounded. To establish the special benefit each individual parcel within the Assessment District receives in proportion to the other parcels within the Assessment District, a Benefit Point system is used. Each parcel of land is assigned benefit points based upon the special benefit a parcel receives relative to the DRAFT—For Review Purposes Only ! Harris &Associates i Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 14 other parcels within the Assessment District from the utility undergrounding activities. The Assessment Engineer has assigned benefit points to each residential parcel based upon the benefit it receives from the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities as discussed below. ■ District Aesthetics Benefit.All residential parcels within the Assessment District,which have their primary ingress/egress along a street where the existing overhead utilities adjacent to their parcel frontage(along either side of the street)will be undergrounded,will benefit equally from the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. Each parcel which has existing overhead utilities adjacent to its frontage is assigned one (I) benefit point for each existing or potential dwelling unit which could be constructed on the parcel. Those parcels where the existing overhead utilities do not front the parcel, but which receive utility services from the existing overhead utilities within the Assessment District and must use the street(s) where the existing utilities will be undergrounded will receive 50% of the benefit assigned to parcels where the existing overhead utilities front the parcel since they are impacted to a'lesser degree by the existing overhead utilities. Since the streets within the Assessment District do not provide access to areas which extend beyond the boundaries of the Assessment District and since the overhead utilities in the Assessment District are not generally visible from areas that are outside of the Assessment District there is no aesthetic benefit for parcels that are not within the Assessment District boundaries. ■ Safety Benefit. Parcels within the District will benefit from the elimination of potential property damage from downed utility lines and poles, the removal of the fixed obstructions from the right-of-way, and the mitigation of the potential for delay by emergency responders that will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipment if an overhead utility line is in the way until it has been de-energized. Each parcel that has its point of ingress/egress along a street which has overhead facilities that will be undergrounded is assigned one (I) benefit point for each existing or potential dwelling unit which could be constructed on the parcel. Parcels that areserved by utilities which have been undcrgrounded adjacent to the parcel's frontage, including utility services to the parcel, but which must use streets within the Assessment District for ingress/and which would be impacted by downed wires or poles in the existing overhead utilities that are to be undergrounded are assigned one-half(1/2) a benefit point since they receive'a reduced benefit because structure:.-. or occupants would not be damaged from downed utility lines and poles, but do receive a special benefit related to the mitigation of potential for delays by emergency responders as a result of the downed utility lines. ■ Enhanced Reliability Benefit. All parcels within the District that receive services from the existing overhead utilities or which would be impacted by a service outage of the existing overhead utilities within the District will specially benefit from the enhanced reliability of service due to having all new wires and equipment and having such new equipment underground, and the intelligent technology which minimizes the number of parcels impacted by a service outage. Each parcel is assigned one (1) benefit point for each existing or potential dwelling unit which could be constructed on the parcel. Parcels that are served by utilities which have been undergrounded, including their service lines, immediately adjacent to the DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only � Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 15 parcel but which tie into existing overhead utilities that will be undergrounded and which would be impacted by a service outage in the existing overhead utilities that are to be undergrounded are assigned one-half(1/2)a benefit point since they receive a reduced benefit. • Removal of Obstructions to View. The removal of obstructions to view from the overhead utilities looking towards Richardson Bay will provide a special benefit to parcels based upon their locations and the impact the existing overheard utilities that will be undergrounded have on their view. The level of benefit a parcel receives is based on the following definitions. o High(1.0). The view from the parcel looking towards Richardson Bay from within the dwelling or from outside living areas is significantly obstructed by the presence of the existing overhead utilities located adjacent to the parcel and will be improved by the removal and undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. o Medium (0.5).The view looking towards Richardson Bay from within the dwelling or from outside living areas is partially obstructed by the presence of the existing overhead utilities and will be improved by the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities, but the existing overhead utilities are not generally located adjacent to the parcel. o Low (0.25). The view looking towards Richardson Bay from within the dwelling or from outside living areas is minimally obstructed by the presence of the existing overhead utilities that are visiblefromthe parcels,but not generally located on the street(s) immediately adjacent to the parcel, and the view will be minimally improved by the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. o None(0.0). The parcel may or may not have a view of Richardson Bay from within the dwelling,however,the existing overhead utilities that will be undergrounded are not visible within the view shed of the parcel looking towards 'Richardson Bay. Exceptions There are several parcels within the Assessment District which are not developed or planned for residential use. Each of those parcels has a conditional use permit which allows the continued use of the parcel as it is currently developed, and no change in use is likely to occur which would alter the special benefit the parcel receives. The methodology used to assign benefit points relative to the non- residential use parcels is explained below. 1. St. Hilary Catholic Church and School A.N. 16, 17 & 23 (Assessor's Parcel Numbers (APN) 055-253-22, 055-253-21 & 039-151-52) is developed as a parish and school-site owned by the Archdiocese of San Francisco and encompasses roughly 7.62 acres. The main entrance to the school is on Rock Hill Road, which is being undergrounded,and there is a second entrance on Hillary Drive which is also being undergrounded. Both the church and school receive utility service from Rock Hill Road. Because this property is developed as a church and school site, the special benefit which it receives is not the same as a residential parcel based on its use. a) Aesthetics Benefit. Schools and churches are treated differently than residential parcels DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 16 when determining the aesthetic benefit they receive as a result of the undergrounding of existing overhead utilities. Unlike residential parcels, parcels developed for religious or school use are not more desirable to a potential purchaser as a result of the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. This is a result of the limited number of parcels that may be on the market and as a result there is not a direct impact on the desirability of a parcel where the utilities have been undergrounded compared to a similar parcel which is served by overhead utilities. However, some special benefit is attributable to the property from improved aesthetics and it's reasonable to attribute the benefit to that of a single family residence. One (1) benefit point is assigned for aesthetic benefit. b) Improved Safety Benefit. The school and church property receives an improved safety benefit from the undergrounding project which will remove the fixed obstructions along the sheets which provide access to the property and the potential.for delay by emergency responders that will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipment if an overhead utility line is in the way until it has been de-energized. The structures on these parcels will not benefit from the elimination of potential property damage from downed utility lines and poles since the existing overhead utilities are not located near any existing or potential future structures. Since the primary benefit for these parcels is related to the removal of the fixed obstructions along the streets used for ingress/egress and the reduction in the potential delay by emergency responders, the benefit to these parcels is related to a residential property based upon the number of trips generated per day which would use streets within the Assessment District. Based upon an average of 10 trips per day for residential parcels and an average of 2.7 trips per student per day(estimated enrollment of 276 students),these parcels are the equivalent of 74.5 equivalent dwelling units. Since these parcels do not benefit from the elimination of potential property damage or injury to occupants due to the location of the improvement on these parcels in relationship to the location of the existing overhead utilities, they receive a reduced benefit related to the removal of the fixed obstructions and the reduction in potential delays by emergency responders. The safety benefit is reduced by 75% rather than the 50% for a residential parcel where the utilities have undergrounded adjacent to the parcel's fi-ontage since the hours of use or occupancy are less than for residential parcels. A total of 18.625 benefit points are assigned for the safety benefit. c) Enhanced Reliability Benefit. Residential parcels are assigned one(1)benefit point for each electrical service to structures on the parcel. As there are five(5) independent structures on the property served by the existing utilities, the enhanced reliability benefit is considered for each of the structures and is then added together. The combined enhanced reliability benefit for these parcels is 5 benefit points. d) Removal of Obstructions to Viei�v. The location of the existing overhead utilities which will be undergrounded do not impact the views from the structures or outside use areas and no benefit points are assigned for this benefit factor. 2. Community Congregational Church of Tiburon A.N. 33 (Assessor's Parcel Number(APN)039-1 11-21)is a church site and encompasses roughly 4.87 acres. The main entrance to the site is at the upper end of Rock Hill Road, which is being DRAFT—For Review Purposes Only Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017.1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 17 undergrounded. The church receives utility services from the existing overhead utilities Rock Hill Road that will be undergrounded. Because this property is developed as a church, the special benefit that it receives is not the same as a residential parcel based on its use. a) Aesthetics Benefit. Churches are treated differently than residential parcels when determining the aesthetic benefit they receive as a result of the undergrounding of existing overhead utilities. Unlike residential parcels,parcels developed for religious use do not see an increase in marketability to a potential purchaser as a result of the undergrounding of the existing overhead utilities. This is a result of the limited number of parcels that may be on the market and as a result there is not a direct increase in the desirability of a parcel where the utilities have been undergrounded compared to a similar parcel which is served by overhead utilities. However, some benefit is attributable to the property from improved aesthetics. It is reasonable to attribute the benefit to that of a single family residence. One (1) benefit point is assigned for aesthetic benefit. a) Improved Safety Benefit. The church property receives an improved safety benefit from the undergrounding project which will remove the fixed obstructions along the streets which provide access to the property and the potential for delay by emergency responders that will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipmentif an overhead utility line is in the way until it has been de-energized. The structures on this;parcels will not benefit from the elimination of potential property damage from downed utility lines and poles since the existing overhead utilities are not located near anyexisting or potentialfuture structures. Since the primary benefit for these parcels is related to the removal of the fixed obstructions along the streets used for ingress/egress, the benefit tothese-parcels is related to a residential property based upon the number of trips generated per day. Based upon an average of 10 trips per day for a typical residential parcel and an average of 5.0 trips per 1,000 sq. ft. per day for houses of worship and quadruple that rate for days of assembly(estimated useable building area of approximately 12,500 sq. ft.),this parcels is the equivalent of 9 residential units. The benefit received by this parcel is only related to the removal of the fixed obstructions and the reduction in potential delays for emergency responders. As a result, the safety benefit is reduced by 75% rather than the 50% for a residential parcel where the utilities have been undergrounded adjacent to the parcel's frontage since the hours of use or occupancy are less than for residential parcels. A total of 2.25 benefit points is assigned for the safety benefit. b) Enhanced Reliability Bengfit. As there is a single structure on the property served by the existing utilities, the Enhanced Reliability Benefit is considered to be the same as for a single family home and 1.0 benefit point is assigned. c) Removal of Obstructions to View. The existing overhead utilities do not impact the views from the structure or outside use areas and no benefit points have been assigned for this benefit factor. 3. Belvedere Tennis Club A.N. 109 (Assessor's Parcel Numbers (APN) 055-201-36) is a tennis club and encompasses roughly 3.61 acres. The main entrance to the site is located on Tiburon Boulevard, which has DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only � Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 18 already been undergrounded. The tennis club receives utility services from the existing overhead utilities which are located within Richardson Bay Lineal Park, which is adjacent to the rear of the property. The benefit points assigned to this parcel are based upon the proposed relocation of the point of utility service from the existing overhead facilities at the rear of the parcel to a location adjacent to Tiburon Boulevard. hn addition, the Sanitary District has an easement on the parcel and has a small building which houses a pump station for the Sanitary District. Because this property is a not used for residential uses, it has different levels of benefit based on how it is used. a) Aesthetics Benefit. Non-residential uses on a parcel are treated differently when determining any aesthetic consideration. Since the ingress/egress'to the parcel is off of Tiburon Boulevard and there are no overhead utilities adjacent to the parcel along Tiburon Boulevard it will receive no aesthetic benefit from the utilities being undergrounded. In addition as there is no requirement for vehicles to use streets where the existing overhead utilities will be undergrounded to access this parcel,zero(0)benefit points are assigned for the aesthetics benefit. b) Ihnproved Safety Benefit. This property receives an improved safety benefit from the relocation of the existing overhead utilities at the rear of the property to new underground facilities within/adjacent to the Tiburon Boulevard public right-of-way. Based upon a street frontage of 75 feet for a typical residential parcel, the 590 linear feet of overhead utilities along the rear of the parcel adjacent to the linear park is the equivalent frontage for 7.85 residential parcels. While the potential for damage to the Tennis Club's facilities exist from downed wires or poles from the existing overhead utilities,the benefit is less than for residential uses since the improvements which would be damaged would be limited to fencing and ancillary strictures around the tennis courts. Since the parcel will not benefit from the removal of the fixed obstructions along the streets within the District and the potential for delay by emergency responders that will neither cross a downed power line nor set up equipment if an overhead utility line is in the way until it has been de-energized, the safety benefit is reduced by fifty percent(50%) from a typical residential parcel which results in the assignment of 3.925 benefit points for the improved safety benefit. c) Enhanced Reliability Benefit. There are two (2) services on the property served by the existing utilities, the enhanced reliability benefit is based upon the number of services and 2.0 benefit points are assigned. In addition, there is a pump station owned by the Richardson Bay Sanitary District that is located within an easement on A.N, 104 (Belvedere Tennis Club) that is served by the existing overhead utilities. The undergrounding of the existing utilities serving the pump station will provide enhanced reliability. One (1) benefit point has been assigned for the enhanced reliability benefit for that use. d) Reinoval of Obstructions to Vieiv. The existing overhead utilities which are located on the parcel adjacent to the Linear Park Trail have a significant impact on the views from the clubhouse and outside use areas. The view from those areas will be significantly improved by their removal. Based upon a street fi-ontage of 75 feet for a typical residential parcel, within the Assessment District, the approximately 590 linear feet of overhead utilities located on the parcel adjacent to the linear park is equivalent to the frontage for 7.85 DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 19 residential parcels. Based upon the assessment methodology described earlier, this parcel would be assigned a total of 7.85 benefit units based upon the equivalent street frontage for the removal of obstructions to view benefit. Since Article XIIID prohibits an assessment on a parcel which is greater than the proportional special benefit which it receives, the Assessment Engineer has reduced the benefit points assigned for Removal of Obstructions to View by 50%to 3.925 benefit units.This is based upon a finding that the undergrounding of the existing utilities will have a reduced impact on the desirability of the parcel and the view from the parcel looking towards Richardson Bay to a potential purchaser when compared to the benefit that residential parcels would receive from the removal of the obstructions to view as a result of undergrounding of the existing utilities. Vacant Properties For purposes of calculating the benefit received from the utility undergrounding project, a vacant parcel is considered developed to its highest potential and connected to the system. The following is a brief discussion of the vacant property within this District. For A.N. 24, Assessor's Parcel Number(APN) 039-111-55) a snap to sub-divide this parcel into two (2) parcels has been submitted to the Town and the parcel has a high potential for residential development. Since it is likely that two (2) residences will be constructed on the parcel once sub- division has been approved,benefit points are assigned to this parcel based upon the future subdivision of the parcel for residential use. Since the new parcels will obtain utility services from the existing utilities located on Via Pariso, no benefit points will be assigned for the enhanced reliability benefit. Benefit points have been assigned to this parcel for the aesthetics, improved safety and view enhancement benefits based upon the level of development (2 residential units) that would be permitted as described in the previous section. Properties Excluded from Assessment In addition to the parcels described above, there are three (3) parcels within the boundaries of the District that do not receive a special benefit from the undergrounding project and therefore have not been assigned benefit points. The reasoning is as follows: 1. A.N. 55B (APN 055-183-30) is a sliver-parcel that cannot be developed and, as such will not benefit from the improvements. 2. A.N. 115B (APN 055-201-32) is a sliver parcel that cannot be developed and, as such will not benefit from the improvements. 3. A.N. 117B (APN 055-201-25) is a sliver parcel that serves as a private roadway to serve A.N 117A (APN 055-201-02) and it cannot be further developed. As such, this parcel will not receive a benefit from the improvements. ASSESSMENT APPORTIONMENT The special benefit received by parcels within the Assessment District has been weighted according to the betterment received by them based upon a weighting of the benefits as shown below: DRAFT— For Review Purposes Only � Harris &Associates Town of Tiburon November 1,2017 Assessment District No.2017-1 (Hawthorne Undergrounding District) Preliminary Engineer's Report Page 20 District Aesthetics Benefit 50% Safety Benefit 10% Enhanced Reliability Benefit 10% Removal of Obstructions to View 30% The weighting shown is based upon the judgement and experience of the Assessment Engineer,a field review of the parcels within the Assessment District by the Assessment Engineer, public testimony and by the confirmation of this report by the Town Council based upon the absence of a majority protest. The amount of special benefit allocated to each parcel within the Assessment District that receives a special benefit has been apportioned to each parcel in proportion to the benefit points assigned to the parcel as a percentage of the total benefit points for each benefit factor. The general benefit derived from the improvements as calculated in this report has been removed from the total amount to be assessed. The assessment on each parcel does not exceed the costs of the proportional special benefit conferred on the parcel. There are no publically owned parcels within the boundaries of the Assessment District. Incidental Expenses and Financial Costs have been assessed to the entire Assessment District on a pro rata basis relative to the total construction cost allocations. CONTRIBUTIONS In addition to the contribution for general benefit, the Town has elected to make an additional contribution of up to four hundred seventy fotr thousand, one hundred and seventy seven dollars ($474,177) to the Assessment District. If the total cost of construction and incidental expenses is equal to or greater than the $10,757,563, then the full amount will be contributed. If the total cost of the constriction and incidental cost is less than $10,757,563, then the Town's contribution would be reduced by a percentage equal to the percentage reduction of the costs. In determining the amount to be assessed to each parcel as set forth in Appendix A, the Town contribution has been applied first to reduce the assessments assigned to non-taxable properties (church owned) located within the Assessment District by seventy-five percent. As such, the church owned parcels will be reduced by seventy-five percent,for a reduction of$236,054.44. The balance of the Town contribution remaining after the reduction in the assessments to the church owned parcels ($238,122.56) has been applied proportionately to each of the remaining parcels to reduce the assessment on each parcel. Given this application of the Town contribution,the assessment on each parcel within the District is proportional to, and no greater than, the special benefits conferred on each parcel by the improvements.

In the last town council meeting of September 19, Jack Ryan said that the Tax Postponement program was the solution for those who cannot afford the undergrounding assessment. However, this is not a solution because although property taxes can be postponed for those who meet the requirements, the undergrounding assessment cannot be postponed. Those property owners who cannot afford the undergrounding assessment will suffer significant financial hardship. In the extreme, they may have to sell their home. It is my understanding that other districts have helped their members for whom the assessment was not financially feasible. Any approval of an undergrounding assessment should include a strategy in which property owners who are undergrounding proponents provide similar assistance.

Furthermore, the Town has not held up on its commitment to contribute a meaningful amount. In reviewing this "revised" report, I don't see much materially changing in this revision other than a nice subsidy to St Hilary's (?). Perhaps this was further small town politicking/ back scratching, I don't know but arbitrarily favoring one parcel over the rest doesn't seem to make sense. For our specific parcel, our number went up (!) by 4% in this revision; I thought the purpose of the rework was to dramatically reduce the overall contingency and increase the Town's contribution thereby reducing each individual parcel back to where we originally thought it would come in (in our case around $60-80K). Should the costs be lowered it will be broadly supported. Frankly, the Town has demonstrated a complete lack of oversight and needs to be accountable for its actions in leading us down a poor path, backtracking/politicking around what was discussed and misappropriating our funds. After all, is this what you want for Tiburon? http://www.mercurynews.com/2017/10/10/pge-power-lines-linl<ed-to-wine-country-fires/ Cheers, Arif On Sep 14, 2017, at 11:10 AM, Arif Fazal <fazal arif@yahoo.com>wrote: To Our Town Council• We are supporters of the Hawthorne Undergrounding project and are appalled at the Town's lack of oversight of the Harris Study.

We believe this updated Report still includes major inaccuracies and flaws that should not be accepted by Town Council: - Hugely excessive cost inflations and contingencies are still included: rounded, they represent a 46% cost increase from the 2016 estimated $8.4 million to the November 2017 revised estimated $12.3 million: - We understand that Newport Beach just received guaranteed not-to-exceed pricing for their 9,000 foot district at $700 per foot - using this comparable number, our 9,400 foot Hawthorne district price would be $6.8 million! In light of such a closely comparable and current project cost, we find it very disturbing, and unconscionable, that Tiburon Town Council seems willing to accept such an egregiously high estimate; - How can anyone expect an actual work bid to come in at, say, $6.8 million, given an approved Engineers Report will imply acceptance of an 80% higher $12.3 million bid? This seems just prejudicial and injurious to our right to a fair, competitive bid - all seemingly based on "fuzzy math" and unsubstantiated, ridiculously high cost inflations and contingencies. We believe Harris should be directed to revise downward and detail justify their costing, with specific reference to the Newport Beach figures and other current industry comparisons. - Safety must be considered a major general benefit to the Town: - Particularly in light of the devastating North Bay fires, it must be very clear to all that fires started in this neighborhood through downed power lines, exploding transformers, etc. will most likely not stay neatly within the confines of our undergrounding district - fire can spread across our open hillside to the ridge and to other neighborhoods, putting many more Tiburon residents at risk; - Only the section of Old Rail Trail is recognized as having general safety benefit in this Report. However, it is very clear that the general public extensively utilizes much more of our undergrounding district - non-neighbor children and adults attend school, services, celebrations, and sporting activities etc. year-round at the Community Congregational Church, St. Hilarys and the Belvedere Tennis Club, and Hilary Drive is used by cut-through traffic and school buses; - In our undergrounding district we have a number of dead end streets where people could be trapped on the wrong side of a blocked road - if indeed we had a catastrophic fire like Sonoma, how will Tiburon Town Council be able to defend its decision that safety is not a general benefit here if the church congregations or school bodies are so trapped along with residents? We believe safety should be assigned a much more important level of general benefit to Tiburon, with a commensurate much larger contribution from the Town. We urge Town Council to consider the above points in their discussion of Harris & Associates' updated Report, and direct Harris to provide a further Updated Report, including a much high safety general benefit and commensurate Town contribution, and a much more realistic and accurate overall cost estimate. (We have included below our previous September 18th email to the Town Council on the Draft Preliminary Engineer's Report.)

Dear Town Council, We are writing to urge the Town Council NOT to approve the Hawthorne Undergrounding Draft Preliminary Engineer's Report at the meeting tomorrow, September 19th. We believe this current report includes major inaccuracies and flaws that should not be accepted by Town Council: - Hugely excessive cost inflations and contingencies are included that represent a 48% cost increase from the 2016 estimated $8.4 million to 2017 estimate $12.4 million: Harris should be directed to tie the cost estimates to the reality of the financial marketplace and current similar utility/project work; - The general benefit of 10-15% has been removed, in direct contradiction to the Town's general plan: (a) If there is no general benefit to removing these poles, then why has the Town paid for undergrounding of many other poles alongside the Bay? (b) Our Undergrounding district includes 3 institutions heavily used by people living outside our district - driving through, and parking on our streets in many cases - in order to attend schools, weddings, funerals and other large scale events promoted by the Community Congregational Church, St. Hilary's and the Belvedere Tennis Club. How can there be no general benefit to improving the safety and reliabiity of the power supply through our neighborhood when in the recent past we have experienced rotten poles falling across our streets, and downed power lines lying in the street - if people are injured or killed by future such events, will the Town still be able to defend a 'no general benefit' decision? We have also endorsed the very detailed letter that the Council has received from Jack Ryan and Sara Klein. We urge Town Council to act in the best interests of Tiburon citizens and direct Harris to make wholesale changes to the preliminary engineering report which include realistic assessments and costs so the poles can finally be undergrounded in this neighborhood. Lastly, we would remind Town Council that neighbors' funds were spent by the Town during the last undergrounding effort in this neighborhood, with no reporting on that expenditure and no outcome. We trust this time the Town Council will be diligent and rigorous in pursuing a quality report, process and outcome for us, as we expect Town Council to do on all Tiburon matters.
