Thank you! The County's generous contribution of $25,000 is a meaningful building block for us in our effort to cobble together the means to bring about this change. Preliminary engineering indicates the total job will cost roughly 5500,000 - $600,000. The Town is prepared to pay a significant portion of this expense. Our current * budget includes $65,000 to cover detailed design and engineering specifications and obtain Caltrans' encroachment permits; our Town Council has also identified an additional $235,000 for this purpose for consideration in its next budget cycle for a total of $300,000. We need funding partners, though, to cover the balance of the cost, and the County's contribution greatly helps us achieve tbat goal. The Town is reaching out to the City of Belvedere for assistance, for this is as much an entryway for that community as for Tiburon, as well as our local foundations and the nearby business community. We mean to get this done! Thank you "gain for your willingness to support our effort. We greatly appreciate it and your continued leadership for out County. Thank you.

Director Anderson stated that the November Council election filing period closed today and all three incumbents have filed for re- election and Planning Commissioner Tollini was the only one who applied for the two -year seat. He said that it appeared that there would be no election for council members in Tiburon this November. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 1. 1704 TIBURON BOULEVARD: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ESTABLISH A REAL ESTATE OFFICE IN' THE VC (VILLAGE COMMERCIAL ZONE); FILE ##11304; K2 Properties, LLC, Owner; Decker Bullock Realty, Inc., Applicant; Assessor's Parcel Number 059- 102 -17 Director Anderson stated that Decker Bullock Realty, Inc. has applied for a conditional use permit to establish a real estate sales office in the Village Commercial zone at 1704 Tiburon Boulevard. The applicant proposes to occupy 1,295 square feet of the existing ground floor cormnercial space at the building located at 10 Main Street/1704 Tiburon Boulevard. This portion of the building fronts Fountain Plaza, a primary public space in Downtown on a prominent corner. The building space is triangular in shape and tapers as it approaches Juanita Lane. This would constitute relocation from an existing Tiburon Boulevard office location at 1620 Tiburon Boulevard, which is down the street. The building has been commonly known as the Musso Building; where John Musso operated his bakery for many years. Since 1990, uses in the triangular portion of the building facing Tiburon Boulevard have been a jewelry store, clothing TIBURON PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -AUGUST 14, 2013 MINUTES NO. 1035 PAGE 1 stores, and art galleries, and most recently a dry cleaner. In 2010, the Planning Cornmission approved a conditional use permit for a wine tasting operation, but the use never commenced. The dry cleaning operation moved in shortly thereafter. Director Anderson said that the written staff report provided policies from the land use and downtown elements of the General Plan that were relevant to this application. He noted that the 2005 General Plan, specifically Policy DT -16, discourages commercial uses for first story spaces in portions of Downtown, and this space is a borderline case. In 2008 the Town amended its zoning ordinance to implement Policy DT -16 regarding ground floor office uses to state they were no longer pennitted at certain addresses without receiving an exception in conjunction with a conditional use permit. He stated that urban designers and marketing experts have long considered certain uses detrimental to downtowns and this is one type of use that is mentioned. He said that over the past three years the Town has engaged in a robust revitalization effort of downtown, and the Downtown Vibrancy Report makes several recornrnendations to revitalize downtown and that the Marketing and Communications Task Force and Marketing Director are continuing this effort. With respect to zoning, he noted that the zoning ordinance lists several factors that should be considered in reviewing conditional use permits. In conclusion, he stated that the issue was not that the proposed use was incompatible with its surroundings or any type of nuisance, but rather about the appropriateness of an office use for this particular location given the Town's goals and policies regarding its downtown. Cormliissioner Corcoran asked if the adoption of the 2008 General Plan policy included an indication of the Council's intention regarding this building. Director Anderson said that that policy was adopted in 2005 as part the General Plan and the zoning following in 2008. He doubted that the General Plan policy discussion reached that level of specificity, but he noted that there was a strong belief some of the ground floor office uses along Main Street had created "dead spaces ", and that the practice of allowing ground floor office space on Main Street should be discouraged. Chair Weller asked if Director Anderson about the "exception" findings required for allowing ground floor office uses in the discouraged areas. Director Anderson read from the zoning ordinance as follows: "An exception to allow street - fronting ground -floor office use otherwise prohibited by section 16- 22.030 provided that a conditional use permit is secured and one or more of the following findings are made: a) The space proposed for the office use is not physically suitable for retail, restaurant, or personal service use, or b) The applicant has provided substantial and compelling evidence that retail, restaurant, or personal service use is not economically viable in the proposed location." Commissioner Kulik asked if it is known why there was so much turnover in this location. Director Anderson said that he could not speak to that issue. Heidi Pay, representing Decker Bullock Realty, said that they looked at this property because they perceive it as a good location and they perceive themselves as providing vibrancy to TIBURON PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES - AUGUST I4, 2013 MINUTES NO. 1035 PAGE 2 downtown. She said that they are very stable and have an internationally recognized luxury brand that enhances the destination. She noted that the property has an address on Tiburon Boulevard and is therefore exempt from requiring an exception. She said that they represent a significant number of local homeowners on the peninsula and anticipate bringing many local residents to downtown. She said that they did not feel that it would be perceived as a dead zone. She stated that they plan to add something that would not have the look and feel of a traditional office space, and they plan to provide an inviting atmosphere and location for people to come in and peruse the properties for sale in Tiburon. She said that visitors could find out more about the community, the benefits of living in Tiburon, and the community than they could from retail staff. She stated that they are a long tenn business with a very stable income and they have an office two blocks from the proposed location, so this would simply reflect a move for them. She said that the use would not add traffic or have any negative impact to the community. She stated that it is critical to maintain a level of consistency downtown, and it would help the shopkeepers rather than having continuous turnover and vacancies. She stated that many businesses in this location in the past have not been successful and that there was hardly any other business that could configure itself well to the triangular shape of the building. Chair Weller opened the public hearing. Tom Gram said that Tiburon made some poor planning decisions in the 198O's when it allowed 39 Main Street to become offices and the old bank building at 55 Main Street to become a law office. These have created dead spaces. He said that people stop when they reach those locations and never make it to Ark Row. He emphasized that Fountain Plaza has become the most prominent spot in downtown over the last several years, and an office use is not needed in this location. He said that he has experience in retail development and the planning rule is to never allow ground floor office in retail streetscape to avoid dead zones. He pointed out that this is clearly discussed in the General Plan. He said that another real estate company recently applied for a location on Main Street, and he discouraged them from pursuing their application for the same reasons, and they ended up not pursuing it. He aclaiowledged that this space is difficult but added that the high rent is an owner problem and not a Town problem. Commissioner Kulik asked Mr. Gram if he believed the General Plan and zoning had intended to include this space as discouraging ground floor offices. Mr. Gram responded that Fountain Plaza was just getting going and it was not a major part of planning until later. He noted that the Town and donors put up over $500,000 to re -do Fountain Plaza and it was not a major area of concentration at the time, but once the fountain was constructed it became the center of town. He said that this building is a dead space on Fountain Plaza and he thought that the cleaners were a dead space as well. He said that it is not the Town's responsibility to deal with the economics of a particular space. Commissioner Kulik asked Mr. Grain if he considered Fountain Plaza to be part of Main Street. Mr. Gram answered that when the plaza opened and was finished it became the center of town; it is where people come off the ferry, and another office space is not needed in the area. Colin Probert said that he and his wife have lived in Tiburon for 25 years and he is a member of the Marketing and Communications committee for the Town. He said that he was arguing TIBURON PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES - AUGUST 14, 2013 MINUTES NO. 1035 PAGE 3 against the location of the real estate office in this building. He said that in recent years the downtown has really struggled and stores have had a hard time staying open. He said that the merchants who have invested in their stores have been struggling for a long time before they go out of business. He stated that the Town has been working to bring more business downtown and he believed that the Town should attempt to make that corner an exciting and vibrant location. He said that he has learned that the most important ingredient in a successful business is the product itself. He said that more people need to be brought in and therefore the experience of downtown needs to be better, and a stronger mix of stores and cafes are needed in downtown Tiburon if they want more people to come. He said that this building is the first building one sees when exiting the ferry and is therefore the first impression of what the town is like. He suggested that a fun, energetic, and inviting tenant. should go in that location rather than dead office space. He said that he was not exaggerating the importance of one retailer in the right location and pointed out the success of Peet's Coffee in the Cove Shopping Center. He stated that the right business in a particular space really determines the feel of the space, and he felt that this was a pivotal moment for downtown Tiburon. He stated that the Commission should be supporting a vibrant downtown economy. Patrick Sherwood said that the real estate business and its offices are not known for vibrancy. He said that in an effort to bring energy and experiential vitality to downtown, this decision [by the Planing Commission] was critical because this location is "center stage" in downtown Tiburon. He said that this is the building that is seen immediately when coming off the ferry and the fountain was put in that location because it is the center of the town. He said that his hope was to bring more traffic and experiential vitality to downtown, and therefore a business that involves human energy is needed. He said that more people and public art and new business are beginning to come to downtown, and he believed that it is very possible to creatively bring vitality to the area, and that is an important part of why he lives in Tiburon. Michael Koskie said that he is a member of the Marketing and Communications committee and he occupied space in the building for six years. His offices were upstairs, and when he wanted to expand to the downstairs, he was discouraged by the Town and instead created an art gallery on the ground level. He said that the turnover of that space is landlord - related and the landlord is very difficult to deal with. Todd Garrett said that he is also a member of the Marketing and Communications conunittee. He said that they have worked for over two years to provide a unique vision and position for Tiburon to bring people downtown. He said that when people come to Tiburon they are channed, noting that the reaction of concierges they have brought to Tiburon has been very positive, and they are organizing trips to Main Street. He felt that it would be a huge mistake to make this space at the center of town a real estate office. He said that the use should be something that is fun to visit, or a fine dining experience, and fulfill the need of the town to provide a vibrant experience for people who visit Tiburon. He said that filling that space with a real estate broker would not be enticing and would not make this look like a unique place to visit. Janice Anderson -Gram pointed out that there are five real estate offices in the area already. She agreed with Mr. Garrett that it would be wonderful if this location was a lively and vibrant space. She felt that this was really not a hard choice [for the Planning Commission] because an office will not provide a lively, exciting space. She said that there would be times when there is no one in the office on weekdays and particularly on the weekends. She said that the committee wants TIBURON PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES - AUGUST 14, 2013 MINUTES NO. 1035 PAGE 4 this space to be inviting, especially on weekends when people are visiting Tiburon. She said that the Planning Conzunission should not allow this prime and very visible ground floor space to become another office. She said that there is not a real need for this use in this location given that there are five real estate offices already in the area. Jan Harder, representing ACV Argo Tiburon, which owns several properties in the downtown, said that her company recommends retail uses on the ground floor and office uses on second stories. She pointed out that her own company has office space on second floors and they have refused real estate office offers on the ground floor because of the concerns brought up at tonialit's meeting. She said that tenants in the area need the cross - traffic that retailers bring into downtown. She said that office users take up parking for retail users, and office users often park in those areas for hours. She said that those parking spaces should be available for people who want to spend time in the retail shops. She said that office uses downtown are difficult because of that lack of parking. She encouraged keeping retail uses on the ground floor and offices uses on the second floor. Olivia Decker, Decker Bullock Realty, said that she has lived in Tiburon since 1976 and they have two offices on Tiburon Boulevard right now. She said that they bring people to town to buy homes to live in Tiburon and the better downtown they have, the better for her own business, so they therefore have the same goals. She said that the reason they want to move to this location is because it is a better location near the fountain. She said that she wants clients to come in and see them and she suggested setting up tables in front of the office and serving coffee or wine. She said that they have been in their current location since 1988 and have a stable business and they want downtown to be wonderful and improve the value of homes in Tiburon. She said that the town needs vibrancy and she questioned why Tiburon is not as vibrant as other beautiful locations in the world. She said that they want more people to come into the office and this would function like a retail use. She said that they would be working in that office and they plan to host evening gatherings to bring in clients. Vesa Becam, property listing agent with Keegan & Coppin Realty, said that she understood the notion of keeping retail on the ground floor on Main Street, but she pointed out that the property is not on Main Street and has an address on Tiburon Boulevard. She said that this location has always been a problem because it is long and pie shaped. She said that this space has no room for a trash enclosure, needs a second ADA restroom, and lacks an adequate sewer drain, all of which combine to make it nearly impossible to put in a restaurant. She said that a winery tasting room or cafe would not be economically feasible in that location. She said that these businesses are seasonal and people cannot be forced to shop during the off - season. Cindy Shelton, agent with Decker Bullock, said that she works with Olivia Decker. She said that she has heard the concerns about the dead space in downtown and believed that the real estate office would liven up that corner of downtown Tiburon. She noted that most of their offices do not look like office space but are very beautifully decorated with antiques. She said that she has watched people come by and stare in the windows of the real estate office to view their display of flyers, and she felt that there would be a lot of traffic if Decker Bullock was situated in the proposed location. She said that they could be a part of the growth and vibrancy and would help get more people downtown to the area. She said that they would give the space class and appeal, and their office front really engages people. TIBURON PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES - AUGUST 14, 2013 MINUTES NO. 1035 PAGE 5 Bill Bullock thanked everyone for their comments. He asked the Commission to consider that this is currently a vacant space and there is no other interest in that space and it is not an easy space to lease. He said that Decker Bullock has over 20,000 square feet of space in Malin County and they have not ever missed a rent payment in 22 years. He said that if they lease this space, despite the perception, the use would not diminish the vibrancy of downtown and the space would not be filled for a very long time. Sylvie Zolezzi, agent with Decker Bullock, said that a real estate office is not a dead zone. She said that they provide water and cookies for dogs, candy for kids, and people would come in and interact, and they attracted a lot of people. She said that her office had a lot of coimnunity events and was a very vibrant space. Chair Weller closed the public hearing Commissioner Corcoran asked why the clothing dry cleaners were previously in that space without Commission review. Director Anderson said that a determination was made at that time that the use was similar enough to the prior clothing store. He noted that the wine bar and office uses were substantially different in nature. Commissioner Corcoran thanked Decker Bullock for their contributions to the community and said that this was not a referendum on Decker Bullock. He said that the Planning Commission's decision - making authority binds them to the provisions of the General Plan, and their determination must be whether the use is in compliance with the intentions of the General Plan. He said that the General Plan demonstrates that it is not the intention to have an office space in this particular location. He acknowledged that this is an unusual spot, but he said that the intent of the Council was that this location be considered part of Main Street. He stated that the fountain did not exist in 2005, but if it did this space would have been included in the area that should not allow commercial office use. He agreed with Mr. Grain that the old bank building has created dead space and that Peet's Coffee was a good example of the impact a business can have on the vibrancy of an area. He said that the Planning Commission canriot comment on whether or not it is a good economic decision. Commissioner Kulik thanked Decker Bullock and noted that a lot of good points were made. He said that a tremendous amount of capital was spent by a donor to improve the Fountain Plaza area in 2008 and it is an essential gathering area in downtown Tiburon. He agreed with Conunissioner Corcoran that it would have been included as part of Main Street if the fountain existed in 2005. He felt that having an office space that is closed 18 hours a day when they are trying to increase the vibrancy of downtown did not resonate with him. He said that Town policies and regulations were trying to discourage ground floor office use and encourage vitality. Chair Weller agreed with the other Commissioners. He said that Decker Bullock has brought great value to the community and he noted that this was not about the company but rather about the appropriateness of office use in that location. He agreed that this particular location should be included in the Main Street area because it is incorporated in the central public space of the downtown. He said that when the Town Council adopted the zoning ordinance it was reasonable to state that if it can be proven that no other possible use of the space is feasible, then an office use could be considered. He did not think that contention had been proven and he said that he would need to see studies or additional evidence to be convinced. He said that the landlord was TIBURON' PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES - AUGUST 14, 2013 MINUTES NO. 1035 PAGE 6 perhaps going to have to spend the money to upgrade the space if he wants to gain a retail tenant; which is what is encouraged by the Town's General Plan.
