  • Deer Discussion Attachment 1 to City Council Staff Report
    DEER - ATTACHMENT 1 DEER DISCUSSION ATTACHMENT 1 TO CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT STAFF REPORT AND MEMO FROM DEER COMMITTEE NOVEMBER 2009 REPORTS BELVEDERE CITY COUNCIL NOVEMBER 9, 2009 To: Mayor and City Council From: Felicia N. Wheaton, Associate Planner Subject: Findings and recommendations of Deer Committee Recommended Motion/Item Description Review and discuss the findings of the Deer Committee and provide staff with direction with respect to the specific recommendations of the Committee. Background Black-tailed deer are a common sight in Belvedere, particularly on the Island. The deer feed on a variety of plants, traverse well-worn paths, and bed in pockets of dense vegetation. The total number of deer on the Island is unknown, although there is quantity enough to cause aggravation among many of our residents. The City received enough communications expressing concern about the deer to warrant the formation of a citizen committee to research the issues and investigate potential solutions. The Deer Committee held seven public meetings from February to September of 2009. A community-wide questionnaire was conducted to gauge local concern about the issue. The questionnaire had an impressive 50 percent response rate. The majority of respondents resided on the Island and wished for more effort toward deer population control. Concerns ranged from yard damage to fear of personal injury. A summary of the questionnaire results is included in the City of Belvedere Deer Study (Attachment 3). Findings Representatives from the State Department of Fish and Game (DFG) advised the Deer Committee that the deer were a State resource that could not be proactively addressed without the advice and consent of DFG.

    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY HOLOCENE SEDIMENTATION IN RICHARDSON BAY, CALIFORNIA By Cathy L. Connor OPEN-FILE REPORT 83-312 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U. S Geological Survey editorial standards and stratigraphic nomenclature. Menlo Park, California 94025 1983 Abstract: Examination of foraminifers, diatoms, ostracodes, clay mineralogy, and sediment-size variation from 9 borehole sites along the salt-marsh margins of Richardson Bay reveals a record of gradual infilling of fine-grained estuarine sediments. Over the past 10,000 years this area was transformed from a V-shaped Pleistocene stream valley to a flat- floored arm of the San Francisco Bay estuary. A radiocarbon date obtained from a basal peat overlying nonmarine alluvial sand near the town of Mill Valley indicates that stable salt- marsh vegetation was present in the northwestern arm of Richardson Bay 4600 +_ 165 years ago and agrees within error limits with a Holocene sea-level curve developed by Atwater, Hedel, and Helley in 1977 for southern San Francisco Bay. The average sedimentation rate over the last 4600 years is estimated to be 0.2 cm/yr for the inner part of the bay. Comparison of early maps with updated versions as well as studies of marsh plant zonations in disturbed and nondisturbed areas shows that almost half of the marsh in Richardson Bay has been leveed or filled since 1899. INTRODUCTION During the past few millennia, humans have found the environs of Richardson Bay, an arm of San Francisco Bay near the Golden Gate (Fig.

    TOWN OF TIBURON Design Review Board Meeting November 3, 2016 ls s 1505 Tiburon Boulevard Tiburon, CA 94920 Agenda Item: 1 STAFF REPORT To: Members of the Design Review Board From: Planning Manager Watrous Subject: 85 East View Avenue; File Nos. DR2016091, VAR2016026, VAR2016027, VAR20.16028, VAR2016029, VAR2016030 & FAE2016009 ; Site Plan and Architecture Review for Construction of a New Single-Family Dwelling, with Variances for Reduced Front and Side Setbacks, Excess Lot Coverage and Excess Building Height, and a Floor Area Exception Continued from September 1, 2016) Reviewed By: BACKGROUND The applicant is requesting Design Review approval for the construction of a new four-story single-family dwelling on property located at 85 East View Avenue. The subject property is currently vacant. The application was first reviewed at the September 1, 2016 Design Review Board meeting. At that meeting, the owners of the adjacent homes at 83 & 87 East View Avenue raised concerns about potential view and privacy impacts from the proposed house and recommended that the house be pulled up closer to the slope. The Design Review Board shared some of these concerns, but felt that the potential view impacts would be more substantial for the home at 87 East View Avenue, while the potentially affected views for the residence at 83 East View Avenue were more appropriately characterized as borrowed views across a vacant lot. The Board made suggestions about potential design changes that could address these concerns and continued the application to the November 3, 2016 meeting. The applicant has now submitted revised plans for the project.
