Those high winds desiccate the soil much more than hot - hot weather. We also staked our 3 new trees and after planting new plants attached drip irrigation to them. Our garden never looked better for this time of year. In May I plan to give a tour and will advise you of the date. Sometimes 30 or more people come. I have a walk around microphone so everyone can hear. Much has changed since last year. Because we had very poor irrigation at the far end - the cause was asphalt under the garden next to the edge for 20 feet. That has been corrected - All the plants in that area are new. And because we needed to remove 6 huge dead Manzanitas that left a very large area for new plants including 3 new trees - small (for trees) Crape Myrtle `Zuni' which will bloom for 3 months beginning in summer with blue/lilac colored flowers. I hope many of you can attend this tour - It should last one hour and usually begins at 10 am.

In light of the impact on residents' health and well-being, we ask that this matter be placed on the Town Council's Agenda at the earliest. Sincerely, Rick T.

DIGEST 36 Southridge West Tiburon, CA 94920 Telephone: (415) 381-4467 May 1, 2013 Peggy Curran, Town Manager Town of Tiburon Dear Peggy: 3,) t l a, 41 J FOWN CLERK TOWN OF TIBURON Re: Proposed Demolition/Construction Protect at 4 Southridge East As indicated when we met with you on April 17, my wife suffers serious medically-documented illnesses and disabilities. Several years ago, she was diagnosed with post-polio syndrome (a progressive neuromuscular disorder); she has also had a couple of strokes. Adequate sleep and repose are essential for my wife's health and well-being as it is for many of our elderly neighbors. Therefore, I ask that you use your authority under Tiburon Ordinance 13-6(d)(1), and as a "reasonable accommodation" in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and applicable California statutes, to modify hours of construction activity on the above- designated project. Specifically, we request that all demolition and construction work be commenced after 9 a.m., Monday through Friday. This would include the arrival of crews using vehicles heavier than a 1/2-ton pick-up, the warm up of construction equipment, the delivery of all construction materials that require more than a %-ton pick-up, and the pick-up and drop-off of debris boxes and portable toilets (including pump-out of portable toilets). So that construction workers are not deprived of a full 8-hour work day, we would have no objection to them being allowed to work until 6 p.m., Monday through Friday. In other words, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday, which would allow a full hour's lunch break. Week- end construction rules to be left intact. For your added consideration, I am enclosing a Petition" that has been signed by 44 long- time neighborhood residents, many of them elderly, some with serious illnesses as well. The petitioners include: a) The Reedlands Property Owners Association's (RPOA) Unit Chairs for Southridge East and Southridge West (Ted Carter and Darryl DeVinney); b) The Senior Citizens' Liaison and President Emeritus of the RPOA, Christopher Wand; c) The President of the RPOA, Jodee Upjohn; Peggy Curran Pate Two April 30, 2013 d) Residents of Southridge Road, Southridge East, and Southridge West whose homes the construction vehicles will have to travel past in order to reach the development site: Moe and Pervaneh Nobari, 6 Southridge East Alexander and Ladan Mortazavi, 12 Southridge East John and Colleen Silcox, 14 Southridge East Dr. David and Patty Ehsan, 16 Southridge East Susan Marshall, 20 Southridge East Effie Westervelt, 26 Southridge East Lynn Pasternak, 32 Southridge Road Jim and Melinda Triplett, 31 Southridge Road Fred and Patsy Farhood, 4 Southridge West Ted and Valda Carter, 10 Southridge West Joshua and Patty Katz, 12 Southridge West Rick and Lalita Waterman, 36 Southridge West Jim Snipes, 40 Southridge West Darryl DeVinney, 44 Southridge West Bob Austrian, 45 Southridge West Geoff Baylor, 47 Southridge West Many thanks for your consideration.

The Sites Inventory and Analysis provides a list of potential housing sites. For the purposes of this environmental review, the list of sites includes both the 2007-2014 Available Land Inventory and Potential Housing Sites for the 2014-2022 Housing Element planning period. Although the 2012 Draft Housing Element is for the 2007-2014 planning period, the Final SEIR includes an analysis of potential housing sites that may be considered for inclusion in the future Housing Element for the 2014 to 2022 planning period, or the current Draft Housing Element. It is anticipated that inclusion of the potential sites for the 2014-2022 cycle will expedite the review and approval of the Housing Element for that planning period. The Goals, Policies and Programs section contains programs that are proposed to be implemented in the 2007-2014 planning period. The programs focus on three objective areas, including efficient land use, providing housing choice, and ensuring institutional capacity to respond to the community's housing needs. Policy initiatives and amendments to zoning regulations are considered in this section. The actions contemplated by this Final SEIR include Countywide Plan land use changes, amendments to Marin County Development Code standards, and rezoning of certain properties. The. Final SEIR also evaluates potential zoning or Countywide Plan land use designation changes for three existing housing sites to address conformance with the existing uses. The Final SEIR evaluates the project with respect to the following topical issues: 1) Land Use & Planning 6) Transportation/Traffic 12) Utilities & Service Systems 2) Population & Housing 7) Biological Resources 13) AestheticsNisual Resources 3 Geology and Soils 8 Energy & Natural Resources 14 Cultural Resources 4) Hydrology and Water Quality 9) Hazards and Hazardous Materials 15) Agriculture and Forestry Resources 5) Air Quality 10) Noise 16) Greenhouse Gas Emissions 11) Public Services and Recreation 17) Mineral Resources The changes to the Countywide Plan, in combination with other changed conditions, would not result in new or more severe significant effects to topical areas # 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17. However, the changed conditions would result in new potentially significant impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant impacts related to topical areas # 4, 5, and 10. New mitigation measures have been identified through environmental review and are included in the Final SEIR. i , Jerem4Tj Planning M pager 04/29/13 [Lai Late agenda material can be inspected in the Community Development Agency between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
