At their meeting on April 27, 2017, the TAM Board of Commissioners recontmended that TAM staff recommend MTC allocate $467,000 funds for the project. For funding eligibility, MTC requires a local agency's Council approve a resolution authorizing the filing of an application, committing matching funds, and assuring to complete the project.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

Pursuant to preliminary review of the project in accordance with Section 15061 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, this project is likely to be found Categorically Exempt under CEQA. Further environmental review may be necessary to confirm there will not be significant environmental impacts.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Paradise Drive Multiuse Pathway between San Clemente Drive and Seawolf Passage Project, No. 15-007 proposed budget for FY 17-18 and FY 18-19 is $1,200,000. An amount of $472,000 is proposed to be appropriated by the Council in Fiscal Year l7ll8 from Corte Madera Sales Tax Fund, and $133,000 of Corte Madera Sales Tax Fund will be requested in FY l8/19.'When the Bayside Trail Project was completed in 2009, $128,000 of Measure A Funds \ryere remaining. At the request of Town staff, TAM transferred unused grant funding for the Bayside Trail Project to the Paradise Drive Multiuse Pathway between San Clemente Drive and Seawolf Passage Project in December 2015. These funds are designated as a funding source for the project in FY 17-18 in the current budget to be approved. TAM has recently notified the Town that they will deobligate these previously secured Measure A funds of $128,000, andprovide federal CMAQ/ STP funds in return.

The Public Works engineering staff applied for federal CMAQ/ STP funds for the Paradise Drive Pathway Project in May 2016. The TAM Board has approved programming of $467,000 of CMAQ/ STP funding for project. CMAQ/ STP grant funds require an 11.47%o local fund matching to grant amount; the Town is required to provide a minimum of approximately $60,504 of local funds for the project. In total the project will require $605,000 of Town funds, not considering costs for right-of-way and utility relocation, if necessary. 5472,000 has been requested for Fiscal Year 17l18 in the current budget process. The $595,000 of CMAQ/ STP funds, recommended for the project, will be programmed in the federal TIP (Transportation Improvement Program) for allocation Fiscal Year l8/19.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION

The Paradise Drive Multiuse Pathway between San Clemente Drive and Seawolf Passage Project will replace the sidewalk on the north side of Paradise Drive from San Clemente to Seawolf Passage to construct a 8' wide (wherever feasible) multi-use pathway to connect to the south end of the Bayside Trail (Class I pathway along the east side of San Clemente Drive). In addition, other pedestrian safety improvements such as upgraded ramps will be installed with the project. Attached for reference is an exhibit (Attachment 4) showing the location of the project and pictures of the existing conditions.

The new multi-use pathway would enhance travel to and from schools in the Larkspur-Corte Madera School District. In addition, the pathway project would also close a gap in the Bay Trail. Development of the project would provide an almost continuous multi-use path from Tamalpais Drive to \üy'estward Drive.

MTC's OBAG 2 Guidelines require minimum amounts to be programmed for Safe Routes to School (SRTS) projects for each CMA. Of the available funding, TAM is required to program $864,000 to SRTS projects or programs. Staff submitted an application for funding for the Paradise Drive Pathway Project as a SRTS project in the amount of $689,000 on May 6, 20L7 as part of the Transportation Authority of Marin (TAM) OBAG (One Bay Area Grant Program) Call for Projects. At TAM's request, Town staff relooked at Corte Madera's request, and revised the scope of our project slightly and reduced our request to $467,000.41 their Board meeting on April 27, 2017, TAM Board recommended that TAM staff recommend MTC allocate $467,000 funds for the project. TAM will actually be providing the Town with $595,000 of federal CMAQ/ STP funds because they are deobligating the Measure A funds.

For the Paradise Drive Multiuse Pathway Project to be eligible for CMAQ or STP funds, MTC requires that the Town Council approve a resolution authorizing the filing of an application for CMAQ/ STP funds assigned to MTC, committing matching funds, and stating assurance to complete the Paradise Drive Multiuse Pathway between San Clemente Drive and Seawolf Passage Project. The draft resolution is attached as Attachment I.

CONCLUSION:

It is recommended that the Town Council review the attached draft Town of Corte Madera Resolution No. 30/2017 Authonzing the Filing of an Application for CMAQ (Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program) or STP (Surface Transportation Block Grant Program) Funds Assigned to MTC, Committing Matching Funds, and Stating Assurance to Complete the Paradise Drive Multiuse Pathway between San Clemente Drive and Seawolf Passage Project, provide staff with comments and/or edits, if any, and adopt the resolution.

Along with released reserve funding from the November 2016 TAM Board decision, this would allow for an increase of two guards for the life of Measure A that due to expires inFY 24125.

BACKGROUNI)

The One Bay Area Grant (OBAG) Program is MTC's funding approach that attempts to integrate the region's federal transportation program with California's climate law (Senate Bill 375, Steinberg, 2008) and the Sustainable Communities Stratery. OBAG Cycle 1 covered a five-year period from FY 12113 to FY 16117. TAM programmed funds from OBAG Cycle I to eligible projects in November 2012. With OBAG I coming to an end in2017, MTC has started the process for OBAG Cycle2, which will cover another five- year period from FY lTllStoFY 2l/22.

MTC's OBAG 2 Guidelines require minimum amounts to be programmed for Safe Routes to School (SRTS) projects for each CMA. Of the available funding TAM is required to program a minimum of $864,000 to SRTS projects or programs.

TAM conducted a Call for Projects on March 30,2016 and received 9 projects/programs by the deadline of lu{ay 6,2016 identified for consideration of Safe Routes Funding. In July 2016, the TAM board adopted funding recommendations for OBAG 2 and defened programming of $864,000 in funding for Safe Routes to Schools.

The TAM Chair convened the Safe Routes to Schools Ad-hoc Committee, comprised of Commissioners Moulton-Peters, Lucan, and Reed, on June 28,2016, November 1,2076, January 37'2017, and April 4, 2017 to discuss short and long term needs of the Safe Routes to Schools Program, including the Education and Outreach Program, Crossing Guard Program, and Safe Pathway Capital Program.

DISCUSSION/A¡IALYSIS

The TAM Safe Routes to Schools Ad-hoc Committee was convened to assist TAM staff in comparing Project merits across three major program areas:

¡ Capital Projects ¡ Safe Routes to Schools Education and Outreach program ¡ Crossing Guard Program

Comparisons of these differing groups of projectsþrograms were conducted on a qualitative basis. Overall, there are 12 projects or programs that were considered for additional funding through the OBAG 2 Safe Routes funding source, these are included as Attachment A.

Capital Projects

During the Call for Projects conducted as part of the OBAG 2 process, eight capital projects were identified. These projects are as follows:

Snonsor Proiect Proiect Request 1 San Anselmo San Anselmo School Bike Spine s23s,000 Paradise Drive Multi-Use Pathway between San 2 Corte Madera Clemente Drive and Seawolf Passage s689,000 a J Ross Laurel Grove Pathway and Lazunitas Road Pathway s273,00 4 Novato School Crossing Improvements $r 93.000 5 Marin County McAllister Avenue Streetscape Improvements Proiect $s58.000 6 Mill Vallev Lomita Drive Pedestrian Improvements $616,000 7 Novato San Jose Middle School Access Improvements $213,000 I Marin Transit School Bus Parking Facilitv s864,000

In addition to the I capital projects, the 2015 Safe Pathways contingency list of four capital projects was also included for consideration. One project was resubmitted under the OBAG 2 call for projects the San Anselmo Bike Spine, and one project, Larkspur's Magnolia Avenue had already been funded from other OBAG 2 funding sources, resulting in a final pool of 10 projects.

Sponsor Proiect Proiect Request 9 Sausalito Coloma/Ebbtide Proiect (2nd Contineency) $344.000 Tomales Street Pedestrian Improvement Proj ect 10 Sausalito (4th Contineency) $239.000 $98,000 (resubmitted ll San Anselmo San Anselmo Bike Spine Proiect under OBAG 2) S103,000 (Funded 12 Larkspur Mamolia Avenue Pedestrian Improvement Proiect from OBAG 2)

This total of l0 capital projects were evaluated based on established criteria used to evaluate Safe Pathways projects. These criteria include:

¡ Usage ¡ Safety . Gap Closure o Local Match Contribution o RegionalSigrrificance TAM Programming and Projects Executive Committee Meeting, Item 6 Page 3 of4 April 10,2017

Two projects were identified as tied for the top ranked capital project: the San Anselmo Bike Spine and the Corte Madera Paradise Drive Multi-use Path between San Clemente Drive and Seawolf Passage.

During follow up discussions, Corte Madera has reduced the project request for the Multi-use Path between San Clemente Drive and Seawolf Passage in cost from $689,000 to $467,000 with a slight scope modification and increasing its local contribution.

Both projects received particularly high marks for being regionally significant and high usage compared to the other projects as the San Anselmo Bike Spine serves the primary east-west corridor in Marin and the Corte Madera Paradise Drive Project is a component of the Bay Trail and the North/South Greenway.

Marin Transit's School Bus Parking Facility was not evaluated as part of this process. The significant amount of Safe Pathway project candidates received, and the priorþ of providing direct benefits to the school and community, resulted in the school bus parking needs to be defened. MTC's Safe Routes guidance does not identify transit capital projects as eligible infrastructure projects for safe routes funding.

Non-Capìtøl Projects

Evaluated separately from the Capital projects were the two TAM Safe Routes Programs: Safe Routes Education and Outreach Program and Crossing Guards. During the evaluation process, TAM staffwithdrew the TAM Safe Routes Education and Outreach funding request, as staff has identified Yz cent sales tax funds, unspent and rolled over, within the Safe Routes Education stratery to support high levels of education and encouragement activities. Funding for this Program will be presented to the TAM Board in June20l7.

The TAM Crossing Guard Program is currently facing a shortfall in funding to support the current level of crossing guards in the county. Cunently the Crossing Guards Program funds 82 crossing guards in the county. Due to the ongoing costs increasing faster than revenue growth, and the lack ofany other sources of revenue except the Yz cent transportation sale tax, this level of 82 guards is not sustainable. If additional funding is not identified or changes to the program are not made, the level of guards will need to be reduced to 59 guards in the FY 2018-19 school year.

TAM staff discussed a number of options for program changes with the SRTS Ad-Hoc Committee including a multi-year contract, reducing transit pass assistance, changing the minimum hours paid for guards, and reducing guards annually (in comparison to the current practice ofreducing them after counting cycles or contract renewal years). Of these, the multi-year contract and funding of transit pass assistance at the level currently be reimbursed were recommended by staffand supported by the Ad-Hoc Committee.

Funding Recommendation

TAM staff is recommending funding $235,000 for the San Anselmo Bike Spine Project, S467,000 to the Corte Madera Paradise Drive Multi Use Path (MUP) and $162,000 to the Crossing Guard Program. Along with released Reserve funding from the November 2016 TAM Board decision, this programming would allow for an increase of 2 guards for the life of Measure A.

TAM staffanticipates swapping the $162,000 in OBAG2 federal funding for the crossing guard program only. Both San Anselmo and Corte Madera would receive federal OBAG 2 funds for their respective projects. TAM staffwill return to the TAM Board at a future meeting regarding the fund swap, once details are worked out.

SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOLS AD-HOC COMMITTEE

On April 4,2017, the Safe Routes to Schools Ad-hoc Committee convened to discuss final programming options. After hearing further details on Safe Routes to Schools Program and the Crossing Guard Program, the Ad-hoc Committee voted unanimously support to staff s recommendation as presented in this memo.

NEXT STEPS

Recommend the TAM Board program OBAG 2 SRTS funds to San Anselmo Bike Spine and Corte Madera Paradise Drive MUP Projects in the amounts listed above and submitting them to MTC for approval, as well as $162,000 in funds for the Crossing Guard program, resulting in two additional guards. A fund swap for the Crossing Guards will return to the TAM Board at a future meeting once details are worked out.

Project C¡lI Description Requested The proposed Phase I route would run past St. Anselm School and Wade Thomas Elementary School, then head north along parts ofCedar Street and Làurel Avenue and connect to the Phase II route on Saunders Avenue adjacent to Sir Francis Drake High School. The crossing location near the high school would aim to minimize bicyclist exposure on Sir Francis Drake Boulevard by using the existing flashing pedestrian beacon at Saunders Avenue to cross to the north side sidewalk before turning on to Mountain View Avenue. Phase II would continue on Cordone Ddve to Brookside Drive, running adjacent to Brookside Elementary School before connecting to The Alameda. In order to increase the safety of student bicyclists, stop sign installation and parking removal may be considered along the route. Special school bike route signs would be strategically located along the route to notify both bicyclists and motorists ofthe location of the route.

RECOMMEI\IDATION

Support the TAM Board Safe Routes to schools Ad-hoc Committee and the Programming and Project Executive Committee's programming of OBAG2 related Safe Routes to Schools funding recommendations of $235,000 to San Anselmo for the San Anselmo Bike Spine Project, $467,000 to the Corte Madera Paradise Drive Multi Use Path (lvfuP) and $162,000 to the crossing guard program. Along with released reserve funding from the November 2016 TAM Board decision, this would allow for an increase of two crossing guards for the life of Measure A due to expire inFY 24125.

On April 10,2077, the Programming and Projects Executive Committee convened to discuss the various needs of the Safe Routes to School Program. While concerns were expressed with the inevitable reduction to the Crossing Guards Program, the Programming and Projects Executive Committee voted unanimously to support the recommendation as presented by staff. The TAM Board will have opportunities in the future to delve into the Crossing Guard Program when staffretums with items on the new counts and contract renewal.

BACKGROUND

This recommendation was supported by the Safe Routes to Schools Ad-hoc Committee and the Programming and Projects Executive Committee.

The One Bay Area Grant (OBAG) Program is MTC's funding approach that attempts to integrate the region's federal transportation program with Califomia's climate law (Senate Bill 375, Steinberg, 2008) and the Sustainable Communities Strategr. OBAG Cycle I covered a five-year period from FY 12/13 to FY 16/17. TAM programmed funds from OBAG Cycle I to eligible projects in November 2012. With OBAG I coming to an end in20l7 , MTC has started the process for OBAG Cycle 2, which will cover another five-year period from FY l7llïtoFY 2l/22.

MTC's OBAG 2 Guidelines require minimum amounts to be progtammed for Safe Routes to School (SRTS) projects for each CMA. Of the available funding, TAM is required to program a minimum of $864,000 to SRTS projects or programs.

TAM conducted a Call for Projects on March 30,2016 and received 9 projectsþrograms by the deadline of May 6, 2016 identified for consideration of Safe Routes Funding. In July 2016,the TAM board adopted funding recommendations for OBAG 2 and deferred programming of $864,000 in funding for Safe Routes to Schools. Maklng th. Mort of M¡¡{n Gounta lranrportetbn Dollertr 1ß TAM Board Item l0 Page2 of 4 April27,2017

The TAM Chair convened the Safe Routes to Schools Ad-hoc Committee, comprised of Commissioners Moulton-Peters, Lucan, and Reed, on June 28,20l6,November 1,2076,January 3l'2017, and April 4,2017 to discuss short and long term needs of the Safe Routes to Schools Program, including the Education and Outreach Program, Crossing Guard Program, and Safe Pathway Capital Program.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS

The TAM Safe Routes to Schools Ad-hoc Committee was convened to assist TAM staff in comparing Project merits across three major program areas:

. Capital Projects ¡ Safe Routes to Schools Education and Outreach program o Crossing Guard Progtam

Capítøl Projects

During the Call for Projects conducted as part of the OBAG 2 process, eight capital projects were identified. These projects are as follows:

114 TAM Board Item 10 Page 3 of4 April27,2017

This total of l0 capital projects were evaluated based on established criteria used to evaluate Safe Pathways projects. These criteria include:

¡ Usage . Safety . Gap Closure o Local Match Contribution ¡ Regional Significance Two projects were identified as tied for the top ranked capital project: the San Anselmo Bike Spine and the Corte Madera Paradise Drive Multi-use Path between San Clemente Drive and Seawolf Passage.

Both projects received particularly high marks for being of countywide significance and high usage compared to the other projects as the San Anselmo Bike Spine serves the primary east-west corridor in Marin and the Corte Madera Paradise Drive Project is a component of the Bay Trail and the North/South Greenway.

Marin Transit's School Bus Parking Facility was not evaluated as part ofthis process. The significant amount ofSafe Pathway project candidates received, and the priority ofproviding direct benefits to the school and communiqr, resulted in the school bus parking needs to be deferred. MTC's Safe Routes guidance does not identiff transit capital projects as eligible infrastructure projects for safe routes funding.

Non-Capìtøl Projects

Evaluated separately from the Capital projects were the two TAM Safe Routes Programs: Safe Routes Education and Outreach Program and Crossing Guards. During the evaluation process, TAM staff withdrew the TAM Safe Routes Education and Outreach funding request, as staffhas identified Yz cent sales tax funds, unspent and rolled over, within the Safe Routes Education strategy to support high levels of education and encouragement activities. Funding for this Program will be presented to the TAM Board in June 2017.

The TAM Crossing Guard Program is currently facing a shortfall in funding to support the current level of crossing guards in the County. Currently the Crossing Guards Program funds 82 crossing guards in the County. Due to the ongoing costs increasing faster than revenue growth, and the lack of any other sources of revenue except the Yz cent transportation sale tax, this level of 82 guards is not sustainable. If additional funding is not identified or changes to the program are not made, the level of guards will need to be reduced to 59 guards in the FY 2018-19 school year.

Funding Recommendation

The Safe Routes to schools Ad hoc Committee is recommending funding $235,000 forthe San Anselmo Bike Spine Project, $467,000 to the Corte Madera Paradise Drive Multi Use Path (MUP) and $162,000 to the Crossing Guard Program. Along with released Reserve funding from the November 2016 TAM Board decision, this programming would allow for an increase of 2 guards for the life of Measure A.

CORTE MADERA TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

REPORT DATE: June 12,2017 MEETING DATE: June 20, 2011

TO TO\ryN MANAGER, MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE TOWN COUNCIL

FROM: ADAM WOLFF, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING AND BUILDING

SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION 3I/2017 TO COMPLY V/ITH THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA SURPLUS LAND ACT, GOVERNMENT CODF, 54220, ET SEQ., TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL OR STATE FUNDS THROUGH THE ONE BAY AREA GRANT PROGRAM (OBAG2) ******#*

PURPOSE:

Staff applied for federal grant funds with the Transportation Authority of Marin (TAM) One Bay Area Grant Program (OBAG 2) Call for Projects in May 2016. TAM Board of Commissioners recommended that TAM staff recommend Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) allocate federal funds to two Town of Corte Madera projects, the Paradise Drive Multiuse Pathway from San Clemente Drive to Seawolf Passage (Project No. 15-007) and the Paradise Drive Multiuse Pathway Gap Closure (Project No. 15-025). For federal funding eligibility under OBAG, MTC requires a local agency's Council approve a resolution stating they will comply with the Surplus Land Act.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution 3l /2017

OPTIONS:

1. Adopt the attached Resolution3ll2}lT to comply with the State of California Surplus Land Act, Government Code, 54220, Et Seq. 2. Provide comments to staff and recommend edits to the Resolution, as necessary, and adopt the Resolution as amended; or 3. Take no action at this time.

TOWN MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION:

Support staff s recommendation.

5.I iii

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

Not applicable.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Not applicable.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION :

Congress distributes federal transportation dollars to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) to invest in regional transportation projects. One of these programs is the One Bay Area Grant program (OBAG 2). MTC develops prerequisites for funding that contribute to their Plan Bay Area goals, which include development of affordable housing in the Bay Area. All of the prerequisites are found here: http://mtc.ca.gov/sites/default/files/RES-4202_approved_1.pdf

Conditions for OBAG 2 funding include having a State certified housing element. In this second round of funding, MTC is also looking towards public land as an opportunity for affordable housing development and wants to raise awareness of State law that requires the Town to make surplus land available for housing for persons and families of low and moderate income prior to disposition. Therefore, to be eligible to receive any OBAG 2 funding, the Town must adopt a resolution that ensures that any disposition of surplus land complies with the State Surplus Land Act, Government Code Section 54220 et seq. The Town is already obligated under state law to comply with the Act. Therefore, the draft resolution does not change the Town’s current obligations or policies.

CONCLUSION:

It is recommended that the Town Council review the attached draft Town of Corte Madera Resolution No. 31/2017 To Comply with the State Of California Surplus Land Act, Government Code, 54220, Et Seq. ,provide staff with comments and/or edits, if any, and adopt the resolution.

(b) The Legislature reaffirms its belief that there is an identifiable deficiency in the amount of land available for recreational purposes and that surplus land, prior to disposition, should be made available for park and recreation purposes or for open-space purposes. This article shall not apply to surplus residential property as defined in Section 54236. (c)The Legislature reaffirms its declaration of the importance of appropriate planning and development near transit stations, to encourage the clustering of housing and commercial development around such stations. Studies of transit ridership in California indicate that a higher percentage of persons who live or work within walking distance of major transit stations utilize the transit system more than those living elsewhere, and that lower income households are more likely to use transit when living near a major transit stat¡on than higher income households. The sale or lease of surplus land at less than fair market value to facilitate the creation of affordable housing near transit is consistent with goals and objectives to achieve optimal transportation use. The Legislature also notes that the Federal Transit Administration gives priority for funding of rail transit proposals to areas that are implementing higher-density, mixed- use, and affordable development near major transit stations.

Report Date: June 13,2017 Meeting Date: June 20,2017

TO TOWN MANAGER AND MEMBERS OF THE TOWN COTINCIL

FROM: REBECCA VAUGHN, TOWN CLERK

SUBJECT: MAYOR'S REQUEST FOR THE TOWN OF CORTE MADERA TO JOIN THE CLIMATE MAYORS NETWORK AND SIGN THE STATEMENT FROM THE CLIMATE MAYORS IN RESPONSE TO THE PRESIDENT'S WITHDRAWAL FROM THE PARIS CLIMATE AGREEMENT

PURPOSE:

Approval of this action will authorize Mayor Furst to sign on to the Mayors National Climate Action Agenda statement in response to the President's withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement and enroll the Town of Corte Madera in the Climate Mayors Network.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Town Council approve Mayor Furst's request for the Town of Corte Madera to sign on to the Mayors National Climate Action Agenda statement in response to the President's withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement and join the Climate Mayors Network.

TOWN MANAGER' S RECOMMENDATION:

Support staff s recommendation

DISCUSSION:

The Mayors National Climate Action Agenda (MNCAA or Climate Mayors) consists of mayors from across the country committed to working on climate change and strengthening local efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This initiative is currently led by Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti. Mayor Furst is requesting that the Town of Corte Madera join Climate Mayors and participate in this collaborative effort.

As of June 13, 2017, over 300 cities throughout the country are currently part of this networking group; regionally, local municipal participants include Alameda, Berkeley, El Cerrito, Healdsburg, Napa, Oakland, Petaluma, Richmond, St. Helena, San Francisco and Santa Rosa, among over twenty other municipalities in the greater Bay Area.

Mayors and municipalities that join this initiative commit to: l. Calling for binding emission reductions at the US federal level as well as a global emission reductions agreement;

5.I.v 2. Engaging in and supporting activities leading up to and during the 2015 negotiations in Paris to support the Obama Administration and other parties to create a global agreement;

3. Establishing and regularly reporting annually or bi-annually a municipal and community- wide greenhouse gas inventory (preferably with third party verification), while supporting standardization of municipal and community-wide inventories and reporting;

4. Establishing, or renewing, an existing aggressive greenhouse gas emissions reduction target for both the near term (i.e., by 2020 or sooner) and long term (e.g., 80% reductions by 20s0);

5. Developing, or updating, a community climate action plan, which identifies specific strategies for meeting the emissions reduction target as well as tying mitigation with adaptation measures where possible;

6. Committing to finding an appropriate offset project(s), working collectively to remove barriers, and expanding offsets available to municipalities offered by the Climate Action Reserve, and other measures through the Califomia cap and trade system (or other existing system);

7. Ensuring climate equity and environmental justice is prioritizedin climate action plans.

Collectively, the efforts detailed above will be called, "the Mayors National Climate Action Agenda."

Most recently, the Climate Mayors released an open letter to President Trump to oppose his actions against climate action. A copy of the letter is included as Attachment 1. There are no binding commitments for being a Climate Mayor member, so long as cities are working towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Participating agencies may occasionally be invited to take part in joint letters and various initiatives, such as purchasing electric vehicles, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Regular meetings are held with staff from respective participating cities to discuss progress regarding local efforts.

F'ISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact to become a member of the Climate Mayors Network. Initiatives or projects that may initiate fiscal consideration in the future will be brought forward to the Town Council for review and action.

REQUESTED ACTION That the Town Council approve Mayor Furst's request for the Town of Corte Madera to sign the Mayors National Climate Action Agenda statement to the President and join the Climate Mayors Network.

Draft Letter for Town of Corte Madera Participation June 13,2017

[Via email [email protected]

Dear Climate Mayors:

The Mayor of the Town of Corte Madera is joining the Climate Mayors (aka, Mayors National Climate Action Agenda, or MNCAA), a network of over 300 U.S. mayors representing over 62 million Americans - working together to strengthen local efforts for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and supporting efforts for binding federal and globalJevel policy making.

Climate Mayors recently released an open letter to President Trump to oppose his actions thus far against climate action. Our city has joined Climate Mayors to mutually strengthen grassroots-level, cityJed activity on undertaking climate action by cleaning our energy sources, making infrastructure efficient and growing our economy through investing in sectors that enable a climate- compatible future.

Questions or comments can be directed to Todd Cusimano, Town Manager, at (415) 927-5050 or via email at [email protected].

Sincerely,

Diane Furst Mayor ATTACHMENT 2

298 US Climate Mayors comm¡tto adopt, honor and uphold Paris Climate Agreement goals STATTMENT FROM THE CLIMATE MAYORS IN RESPONSE TO PRESIDENT TRUMP'S WITHDRAWAL FROM THE PARIS CLIMATE AGREEMENT

Thursday, June lst 2077

The President's denial of global warming is getting a cold reception from America's cities.

As 298 US Mayors representing 6o million Americans, we will adopt, honor, and uphold the commitrnents to the goals enshrined in the Paris Agreement. We will intensify efforts to meet each of our cities' current climate goals, push for new action to meet the r.5 degrees Celsius target, and work together to create a 2rst century clean energy economy.

We will continue to lead. We are increasing invesEnents in renewable energy and energy efficiency. We will buy and create more demand for electric cars and trucks. We will increase our efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions, create a clean energy economy, and stand for environmental justice. And if the President wants to break the promises made to our allies enshrined in the historic Paris Agreement, we'll build and strengthen relationships around the world to protect the planet from devastating climate risks.

The world cannot wait-and neither will we.

CLIMATË ACTIOþT ÅGFNDA CORTE MADERA TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

REPORT DATE: JUNE 5,2017 MEETING DATE: JLINE 20,2017

TO TOWN MANAGER, MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL

FROM: GEORGE WARMAN, DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATIVE CES/ TOWN TREASURER/DIRECTOR oF Fn\rA\CEf . f SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE TOWN MANAGER TO SIGN THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT FOR AFIVE-YEAR LEASE AGREEMENT WITH WALLACE S. HOLMES AND GOLDEN GATE PROPERTIES ON TOWN PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2OOO REDWOOD HIGHWAY

PURPOSE

This item is presented to Town Council for consideration of amending the existing Lease Agreement to extend the Lease for another five-year term from July l, 2017 through June 30, 2022, with Wallace S. Holmes and Golden Gate Properties, LLC for use of property which the Town owns and, the Golden Gate Trailer Park currently leases.

RECOMMENDATION:

Authorize the Town Manager to execute on behalf of the Town the proposed First Amendment to Lease Agreement attached to this staff report.

ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS:

Approval of this Lease Amendment is not defrned as a project under CEQA (Section 15378 CEQA Guidelines).

FISCAL IMPACT

The revenues from the lease agreement that is being proposed would increase the Town's fiscal revenues by 847,411 over a frve-year period.

BACKGROUND:

The Town acquired an abandoned railroad right-of-way byGrant Deed from William Lent Porter, Jess Porter Cooley, A. Crawford Cooley, and Barbara Bladen on July 14,7994. Upon acquiring this property, the Town was assigned the rights to various lease agreements that had been entered. into between the Porter-Cooley Trust and its tenants. The leases expired without being renewed by the Town. In 1999, the Town began contacting the tenants of the former Porter-Cooley properties regarding the formation of lease agreements between the 5.I.vi tenants and the Town for the property that they were occupying

In 2001, the Town Council approved a partially retroactive l2-month lease agreement with Golden Gate Trailer Park for the continued occupation ofthe unimproved property by the trailer park tenants for yard space, gardening, and recreational purposes. Since that time, the Town has rented the Town property for the use of the Golden Gate Trailer Park as yard space.

When the lease was due to be renewed in 2007 , at a time that the ownership of Golden Gate Trailer Park was in transition. The then owner was Holmes Capital Investments, which was managed by Wallace Holmes. The owner of the underlying property upon which the trailer park sits was, and continues to be, Golden Gate Properties, LLC. Holmes was selling the trailer park business to a relative of the family controlling Golden Gate Properties, LLC, which sale took effect in 2008. Due to this upcoming transfer, the 2007 -2012 lease re-structured the parties as being Holmes Capital Investments and Golden Gate Properties, LLC as co-lessees of the property. In addition, Holmes signed a personal guaranty which remained in effect until he sold the business, and Golden Gate Properties, LLC also furnished a personal guaranty of its manager for the entire term of the lease.

At the end of 2012, the ownership control of the trailer park is scheduled to be transferred back to Mr. Holmes. Mr. Holmes wants the Town property to continue to be available to his future tenants during his re-acquisition of the Park. Accordingly, the proposed lease is structured to include Mr. Holmes and Golden Gate Properties, LLC as co-lessees both fully obligated under the terms and conditions ofthe proposed leaseagreement.

The lease was renewed in 2012 for a 5-year term that will expire on June 30,2017. The rental amounts during this period were negotiated between the Town and co-lessees and agreed upon by Finance Director, George Warman.

Town staff is now proposing another 60-month lease period based upon having encountered no problems with the trailer park on its prior leases with the Town and the desire to reduce the administrative and legal expenses of having to renegotiate with the trailer park and draft a lease agreement each year.

DISCUSSION:

The Golden Gate Trailer Park currently occupies approximately 9,363 square feet of Town-owned land. This was determined by a property survey in 2000 which is attached as an exhibit to the proposed lease agreement. Most of the property occupied by the trailer park is owned by Golden Gate Propefties, LLC, rather than by the Town. The Town's property is primarily yard and patio space used by the park residents for gardening and recreation. Although the Town's property is occupied by fourteen different trailer owners as well as the Park itself, the park owner has taken on the responsibility of negotiating with the Town on all their behalves. Thus, the rental amounts discussed in this report pertain to all of the 9,363 square feet occupied by the trailer owners, not Íhe amount each trailer owner would pay as rent. The proposed lease would apply an approximate 3%o inflationary factor on July 1 of each of the second through fifth years ofthe lease, while retaining all the same material terms and conditions as the prior leases.

This lease would be with two prior parties that have been bound by past leases, Golden Gate Properties LLC and Mr. Holmes as co-lessees. Golden Gate Properties, LLC is controlled by Marvin Baxter, a retired Justice of the California Supreme Court. Ret. Justice Baxter has signed a personal guaranty which will guarantee that the LLC will perform its obligations under the lease. The personal guaranty will obligate the guarantor if either co-lessee fails to perform any duty under the lease. The lease has been structured to hold Golden Gate Properties, LLC, Mr. Holmes, and Justice Baxter all responsible to the Town throughout the entire five-year term of the lease. The attached lease agreement has the following, salient lease terms which are substantially the same as the 2012-2017lease with the exception of the rental term:

I . Rent of $8,93 0 for the first I 2-month period of the lease; 2. Rent of $9,198 for the second 12-month period of the lease; 3. Rent of $9,474 for the third 12-month period of the lease; 4. Rent of $9,75 8 for the fourth I 2-month period of the lease; 5. Rent of $10,051 for the fifth 12-month period of the lease; 6. The full amount of for the 60-month period be paid to the Town in l0 six-month installments, all paid in advance. (The first installment is to be paid by July I and the second installment is to be paid by January l); 7. A reservation of the Town's right to terminate the lease at any time if the Town Council decides to utilize the property for any other purpose or sell the property; 8. The Lessees requirement to hold harmless and indemnifii the Town for any properfy damage, death, or personal injury resulting from any activity occurring on the leased property; and 9. The Lessees requirement maintain commercial general liability insurance in the amount of S1,000,000 on the leased property.

Staff is submitting to the Council consideration of the approval of this lease agreement. If the Council adopts staff s recommendation, the Town Manager would execute the lease agreement.

OPTIONS:

1. Authorize the Town Manager to execute the First Amendment to the Lease Agreement;

2. Decide not to extend the lease of the subject property to Wallace S. Holmes and Golden Gate Properties, LLC;

3. Direct staff to propose that the lease be modified (different terms and conditions) and authorize stafito renegotiate a new lease agreement with Wallace S. Holmes and Golden Gate Properties, LLC.

SANITARY DISTRICT NO. 2 OF MARIN COUNTY STAFF REPORT

REPORT DATE: June 15,2017 MEETING DATE: June 20, 2017

TO DISTRICT MANAGER, BOARD PRESIDENT, AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS

FROM: NISHA A. PATEL, SENIOR CIVIL ENGINEER

SUBJECT: Approval of a Response Letter to Marin Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) Central Marin'Wastewater Services Study ***#*#***

PURPOSE:

The Marin Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) released its Draft 'Wastewater Central Marin Services Study for public review in April 2017, and Agency comments are due on Friday, June 30, 2017. Sanitary District No. 2 (SD2) staff worked with Mayor Furst to prepare responses to the findings and recommendations, as well as information presented in the SD2 profile in the attached letter.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Board approve the attached comment letter to Marin LAFCO

OPTIONS: l. Approve the comment letter as drafted. 2. Provide revisions to the letter. 3. Do not submit a comment letter. 4. The Town Manager, Sanitary District No. 2 staff, and two Council Members work together to continue work on developing comments to the study and finalize a letter.

DISTRICT MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION:

Support staffl s recommendation.

5.II.i BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:

The Cortese-Knox Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000 (“CKH”) directs Local Agency Formation Commissions (LAFCOs) to regularly prepare municipal service reviews in conjunction with updating each local agency’s sphere of influence. The legislative intent of the municipal service review and its five-year cycle requirement is to proactively inform LAFCOs in fulfilling their prescribed regional growth management duties in all 58 counties in California. All municipal service reviews must culminate with LAFCOs preparing written statements addressing specific service factors, listed under Government Code Section 56430. This includes, most notably, infrastructure needs or deficiencies, growth and population projections, and financial standing.

Marin LAFCO released its issuance of a draft report prepared as a part of a scheduled municipal service review on wastewater services in Central Marin. LAFCO states their underlying purpose of the study is to independently assess the relationship and influencing factors therein in Central Marin between public wastewater demands versus collection, treatment, and disposal capacities relative to Marin LAFCO’s regional growth management duties under State law. Information generated in the study will (a) guide subsequent sphere updates, (b) inform future boundary changes, and (c) if merited serve as the source document to initiate one or more government reorganizations. The report can be found at: https://www.dropbox.com/s/042nz0rz9ahdvzn/4-13-17_AgendaItemNo.8_CentralMarin- Wastewater-DraftMSR.pdf?dl=0 The study reviews the wastewater services of the following seven agencies:

Central Marin Sanitation Agency County Sanitary District No. 1 (Ross Valley Sanitary District) County Sanitary District No. 2 (SD2) Las Gallinas Valley Sanitary District Murray Park Sewer Maintenance District San Rafael Sanitation District San Quentin Village Sewer Maintenance District

SD2 staff has reviewed the study and prepared a letter responding to LAFCO’s findings and recommendations presented, as well as information in the SD2 profile. Staff seeks the Board’s approval or input on the responses in the letter and any additional comments.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Not at this time.

Subject: Comments on Central Marin Wastewater Study 3oo TAMALPAIS DRIVE Conrs Meonnn, CA 94925-t4r8 Dear Keene,

www.townofcortemadera.org The Board of Directors of Sanitary District No. 2 (SD2 or the District) has supported Marin county Local Agency Formation commission's preparation TowN MeN¡cnn of a central Marin wastewater Municipal service Review (MSR), ¿nd has TowN Cour.rcrr reviewed the Final Report which was released for public review on April 17, 4t5-927-5050 2017. The public review of sanitary District No. 2 profile was released for formal public review on December 20,2016. The District provided comments TowN Cr,¡nr on January 30, 2017, and LAFCO staff met with the sanitary District 2 Senior 4t5-927-5o86 civil Engineer, Ms. Patel, on March 28th to discuss the District's comments on our profile. The District Board appreciated LAFCO staff meeting with Ms. FrNeNcn / Bus. Lrcnxsu Patel to review and discuss comments, and understands that some comments 4L5-927-5o55 were addressed in the revised Draft Central Marin wastewater Services Study dated April 2017. Frne DBp¡,nrunNr 4L5-927-5o77 upon review of the wastewater Study, Nisha and I noted that there were still instances of inaccurate or unclear information, and a few areas that we believe Pr,¡.Nxrwc / Zo¡ur.rc need to be considered in the District's profile before the final draft of the study 4t5-927-5o64 is accepted. In addition, the District has some comments on other sections of the report. Below, we have referenced statements in the study, followed by our Bu¡r,orNc Ir.¡spncton comments. 415-927-5o62 l.) The period for collecting data to inform the Commission,s TowN ENcrN¡En analysis....has been set to cover the five yeør period from 2010 to Pusrrc Wonrs 20ta. þ. 2-2) 4r5-927-5057 A study term through20l6 is more appropriate so that the information REcnnntrox Dnpentunxt presented in the MSR and its analysis is reasonably current and 4L5-927-5o72 accurate. If the LAFCO commission is agreeable with extending the term, District staff will provide the necessary 2015 and 2016 data. S¡N¡:r¡.ny Drsrnlc:r No. z 2.) Benchmarking Pension 4r5-927-5057 Obligations (p. 2-4)

CrNrner M¡nrN sanitary District No. 2 is included in reference to pension obligations. SD2 does Por,rcB Aur¡ronrty not make PERS pension contributions or have pension liability. It does not have any employees. Town employees perform 4L5-927-5L5o work on behalf of SD2. The District pays a portion of Corte Madera staffcosts.

I 3.) Increasing Diseconomies of Scale- "V[lhile buildout estimates will change and increase in the future in step with general plan updates, it is reasonable to assume the underlying constraints towards new growth in Central Marin will persist given community preferences, limiting opportunities going forward to spread out costs among a greater pool of ratepayers. The net ffict is a diseconomies (sic) of scale in which the affected agencies' costs to maintain wastewater infrastructure will continue to exceed associated reverutes as evident during the study period with the combined increases in operating expenses outpacing operating revenues by more than three-fold. " (p. 2-7)

This conclusion is troublesome for several reasons. First, it appears that LAFCO is incorrectly referencing the economic concept of "diseconomies of scale". Diseconomies of scale refers to situations in which marginal costs increase as output increases. Applying this concept to sewer services, would describe a situation where the number of ratepayers served increases while costs per ratepayer are also increasing. What LAFCO apparently is attempting to describe in this section is that future limited growth in the number of ratepayers served will not allow agencies to take advantage of economies of scale to reduce marginal costs. This argument is not backed up by any data that shows economies of scale have been realized in the recent past, nor how they might be realized with future growth.

Additionally, this conclusion apparently assumes that because in certain years costs exceed revenues, that trend is both troublesome and will continue into the future. The nature of infrastructure-heavy services such as wastewater treatment and collection is that there are certain times when large investments are made in capital maintenance or improvements, and those investments often show up in financial statements as large expenditures in certain years, while in other years relatively little is spent. These fluctuations are a norrnal part of capital planning and should not be assumed to indicate a financial problem nor indicate a long-term trend.

4.) Variations in Civic Engagement; Board Type Matters- The level and ffictiveness of engagement betvveen agency and customer in Central Marin, nonetheless, appears expressively highest among LGVSD and RVSD, and demonstrates a direct correlation between board type and responsiveness withfavor assigned to independent agencies. (p. 2-7)

It is unclear on what this conclusion is based, as there does not appear to be any objective data related to civic engagement in the report. In addition, there are several problems with the assumptions upon which this conclusion is apparently based. First, LAFCO appears to assume that higher levels of civic engagement is a positive thing, when any local official will recognize that high levels of engagement are often directly related to high levels of dissatisfaction among local residents. For example, it is possible that the many past news stories about RVSD governance and legal issues had a direct effect on the level of local ratepayers' interest in and engagement with the agency in recent years. Second, with the phrase "Board Type Matters" LAFCO apparently conflates correlation with causation by concluding that because LGVSD and RVSD have higher rates of engagement (though no data illustrating this is presented), it is the type of governance which accounts for the difference. This is a leap of logic that is not supported by the information presented.

5.) Additional Merit to Explore Regional Consolidation- Information collected ønd analyzed in this study provides sfficient merit for the Commission to evaluate options and merits to reorganize and consolidate public wastewater services in Central Mørin and most pertinently among øgencies in the Ross Valley and San Rafael Creek l\/atersheds. This topic... responds to Marin LAFCO's directive to independently assess the notional sense ffirmed in this study that consolidation would øppear primed to produce greater accountability and fficiency within the combined watershed. The topic should be premised on identifying merits/demerits of

2 regionalization in improving costs, accountability, and fficiency while being sfficiently fair to all agencies and their ratepayers in terms of shared control. (p. 2-5, similar statements on p. 2-12 and 2-24)

LAFCO does not discount SD2 in it consideration for further study of consolidation with other Districts. LAFCO should define which agencies are included the Ross Valley Watershed and the San Rafael Creek. These watersheds are not matching with the tables throughout the study, ie. p. J-J.aa

LAFCO states that the information in the study provides merit to evaluate potential reorganization or consolidation, yet in no way explains how that conclusion is reached except to cite some undefined "notional sense" that it would be beneficial to pursue. In addition, LAFCO states that that "notional sense" that consolidation may produce "greater accountability and efficiency" yet fails to point to any information in the study which shows how and where such improvements might be gained. These types of vague, undefined conclusions should not be included in a study of local agencies. This section is also problematic as it states that any future consideration ofconsolidation should be "sufficiently fair to all agencies and their ratepayers in terms of shared control," yet does not address fairness in terms of other things such as assets. For example, the study shows varied levels of investment in and age of sewer lines and related capital equipment among the wastewater collection agencies. Any future study of consolidation must address how these prior investments using ratepayer funds will be accounted fairly in any reorganization or consolidation. In addition, since SD2 consolidated with the Town of Corte Madera many years ago in order to improve efficiency and achieve cost savings, any discussion of consolidation in the Ross Valley must address how a deconsolidation of SD2 and the Town of Corte Madera and then subsequent consolidation of Ross Valley agencies will affect SD2 ratepayers and the operations of the Town of Corte Madera.

6.) Year-end profit levels as measured by total margin - the net dffirence between all revenues less all expenses - largely stayed positive with a combined study period average of 14% with the notøble exception CSD No. 2 and CMSA both finished the study period with slight losses. (p. 2- 10)

SD2 would not be considered to have losses if depreciation was not included as an expense. A calculation of the net difference between revenues less expenses is not a great way to show the financial situation of the District.

7.) CMSA should develop a plan to allocate treatment cøpacity among its member agencies to enhance regional growth management. This plan would appropriately inþrm each member agency as well as local land use authorities with more certainty with respect to their ability to forecast and accommodate new development within their jurisdictional boundaries going forward. (p. 2-11)

It is unclear whether a capacity allocation would in any way be beneficial in planning for new growth or forecasting, or would instead be a useless bureaucratic exercise. Many cities in Marin base their housing growth largely on the Regional Housing Needs Allocation issued by regional agencies (specifically, ABAG and MTC). Unless those regional agencies will consider wastewater collection and treatment capacity limitations in developing their quotas, we do not see how an exercise in allocating capacity will be of much help in land use planning.

8.) CSD No. 2 should make additional efforts to distinguish itself as a stønd-alone governmental entity separate from the Town of Corte Madera. An example herein would include developing stand-alone contracting arrangements with Corte Maderø outlining specific services and costs

â J therein with respect to the existing use of Town staff, supplies, and resources in carrying out District duties. (p. 2-11; similar statements on p. 2-23)

This LAFCO recommendation is accompanied by absolutely no information to support it, so we are therefore unable to adequately analyze whether such separation from the Town of Corte Madera would in any way be beneficial. Many years ago SD2 was effectively merged with the Town (as a component unit), and ever since then the ratepayers have benefitted by sharing costs of overhead (including administration, accounting, et al). Reversing this or in some way accounting differently for shared costs is unclear.

9.) CMSA should reorgønize its governing board structure to limit and or remove the City of Larlrspur's presence within the joint powers authority to better ølign and weight governance with vested participation among member agencies. (p. 2-11)

Revision of the Joint Powers Authority (JPA) Agreement should address this. Perhaps it makes sense for the JPA Ad hoc and District Manager working group discuss and make a decision on this.

[0.)Should residential buildout plans proceed as contemplated by the County of Marin and other overlapping land use authorities, the housing stock in Central Marin will increase by 3,352 and result in the estimated addition of 8,268 residents; a net increase of 6.70Á over the end of the study period. (p. 2-14; similar comment on p. 3-l)

The net increase is actually from the end of 2014 to 2024.In addition we find it beneficial for LAFCO to provide an explanation of how this growth was calculated. The study is unclear how the provided numbers were calculated/ forecasted. l[.)The Commission estimates the average total daily flow of wastewater collected by the seven affected agencies....Additional wastewaterflow tallies collectively generated over the 60 month periodfollow. a.) Average dry-day wastewaterflows during the study period tallies II.I million gallons, or 9l gallons þr every person...c.)Average peak-day wastewater flows generated over 24 hours during the study period tallies 102 million gallons, or 855 gallons for every person (p. 2-1 8).

It would be more accurate to not include flows from commercial sites to determine the sanitary sewer generation from each person in the region. A per person comparison for agencies is like comparing apples and oranges because the number of commercial users varies from agency to agency.

12.)Opportunities to increase direct revenues among all the seven affected agencies in Central Marin in support of their respective public wastewater systems is substantively constrained given two external factors...Second, opportunities to raise rates ønd or establish assessments are constrained under State law to require twoihirds voter approval. (p. 2-20)

This is better stated as two thirds property owner written protest. l3.)Four of thefive affected agencies - LGI/SD, RVSD, CSD No. 2, and CMSA - with pension obligations finished the study period with funded status røtios neqr or above 80o/o; the standard...The remaining agency - SR,SD - ended the study period with afunded status - SRSD - ended the study period with a funded status of 7 2%. (p. 2-22)

SD2 should not be included in this discussion as it does not have any employees, and therefore does not have pension obligations.

4 |4.)Estimated resident growth within the remaining four affected agencies accounts .for the remaining 3% of the net over the study period and paced numerically by CSD No. 2 at 88. The other three affected agencies in the region - MPSMD, SQVSMD, and CMSA - collectively accountfor a net increase of8 over the preceding 60 month period. (p. 3-2)

This statement and succeeding tables do not seem to make sense. We suggest revising the language.

15.)Table 3.6 (p.3-8)

SD2 staff calculates a different amount of Assessor Parcel Acres o/o of Total, Total Assessor Parcels, and Residential Units.

16.) Current ratios- i.e., the amount of available cash ønd cash equivalents to cover immediate obligations due also finished in the positive for all of the agencies with a combine average of 12 to I and bookend by CSD No. 2 at 2 to I and,SASD at 4I to L (p. 3-2a)

It is unclear how these ratios were calculated. If depreciation was included as an expense, this could affect the calculation ofthe ratios.

17.)Liquidity, Cøpital, and Profitability (p. 3-24 - 3-27)

This section discusses indebtedness of the agencies. A measurement of 10.8% for long term debt was given for SD2. SD2 does not have any debt.

18.) 1.0 Overview (p. a-101)

District staff is unsure of how LAFCO determined the agencies in the District and the percentages of the area of the District that they incorporate. It appears the provided information in the study is incorrect. District staff determined that Corte Madera accounts for 78%o of the District land area, unincorporated County of Marin (including Greenbrae) is 7o/o, Tiburon covers 72%o, and the City of Larkspur is 3olo of the area.

19.)3.1 Jurisdictional Boundary þ. a-105)

Kentfield is not within the boundary of Sanitary District No. 2.

2}.)Peak Day Flows: This measurement has increased overall during the study period by 64.80%. (p. 4-r 17)

The average peak weather day flows vary based on the intensity of a storm event experienced during the calendar year. Calculating the increase of peak days flows over five years does not provide meaningful information. The amounts of rain can vary significantly from year to year.

21.)Table 4.87 Projected I4/astewøter Flows þ. a-l1S)

Please include an explanation of the linear regression calculation of the estimated flows presented and the drop in flows in 2015 as we were unable to veriff the figures provided.

5 22.)Capacity Tables (p. a-120 ønd 4-121)

These tables compare to the average day and average dry-weather day flows to the maximum hydraulic capacity of the of the collection system. A better comparison to show would be the maximum peak hourly and five minute peak flow rates versus the collection system capacity. These comparisons show a false sense ofavailable or unused capacity.

23.)Pedormance (p. 4-121 - 4-123)

The information provided for these tables was over fiscal years as originally requested. Marin LAFCO reported the information in the report by calendar year, and the information is inaccurate.

24.)Agency Finances (p. 4-125 - 4-128)

It appears that depreciation was included as an operating expense, thereby reducing our net asset amount. SD2 does not fund depreciation. It is included in our audited financial statement because it is required for accounting purposes.

2 5.) Pension Obligations þ.a- I 28)

SD2 does not make pension contribution, nor does it have any pension obligations for retired or separated employees. Any reference to pension contributions or liability is not applicable to the SD2.

26.)The first and predominate tier within Category One is based on a 2.5 at 55 formula, and as such provides eligible retirees with...The second tier is based on a 2.0 at 55 formula, and such provides eligible retirees with 20 years of total service credit 40% of their highest one year of salary beginning at age 55 ønd continuing eachyear thereafter.

o'classic" The Town of Corte Madera has only two retirement tiers. The first one is for employees and is 2.5%o at 55 years of age. The second one, for those that are not ooclassic" employees, aligns with the CA Public Employees' Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) formula which is 2.0%o at 62. Discussing Town of Corte Madera retirement formulas does not pertain to SD2 since we do not have employees of our own.

27.)Revenue to Expense Trend, and Tables 4.97 and 4.98

Depreciation should not be considered a real cash expense.

We thank LAFCO in advance for their time and effort in reviewing and considering the comments presented. Please do not hesitate to contact the Agency's General Manager to discuss any of the comments.

Sincerely,

Diane Furst President, Sanitary District No. 2

TO HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF TOWN COUNCIL

FROM: TODD CUSIMANO, TOWN MANAG DARIA CARRILLO, FINANCE DIRECTOR

SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING FOR FISCAL YEAR 2OL7-2018 PROPOSED TOWN OPERATING BUDGET, 2OI7 -2018 PROPOSED CAPITAL BUDGET, AND 2017-2018 PROPOSED BUDGET FOR SANITARY DISTRICT NO. 2 OF MARIN COUNTY, REFFERED TO AS THE SEV/ER FLTND IN THE PROPOSED BUDGET

rß*rl.*.t ¡1.****

PURPOSE:

Overview and presentation of Proposed Town Operating Budget, Capital Projects Budget, and Sanitary District Operating and Capital Improvements Budget.

TOWN MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION:

That the Town Council conduct public hearings regarding the 2017-2018 Proposed Operating Budget, 2017-2018 Proposed Capital Budget, and2017-2018 Proposed Budget for Sanitary District No 2 of Marin County, referred to as the Sewer Fund in the Proposed Budget.

OVERVIEW:

The Town of Corte Madera's fiscal year starts on July I and ends the following June 30. Each year staff prepares a proposed budget to project revenues and recommend expenditures for the upcoming fiscal year. Included with the budget proposal is a recommended work plan.

Overall, the Town's financial situation is good, with the proposed budget projecting an operating surplus of over $521,000 at the close of Fiscal Year 2018. The budget maintains prudenf reservè balances, provides funds to cover the cost of ongoing operations, and improves upon disaster preparedness, senior and youth programs. The budget includes a number of capital projects to improve drainage; flood control; street maintenance; accessibility; sewer infrasiructurejbike and pedestrian safety; our parks and facilities; and includes studies to improve traffic flow and safety throughout the Town.

6.I DISCUSSION:

General Fund:

Revenue o Sales tax, the General Fund's largest source of revenue, is expected to increase by $300,000, or 4.7o/o. This does not include the Corte Madera Sales Tax Override which is accounted for in a separate fund and is expected to increase by $50,000, or 2o/o. o Secured property tax will increase by $169,000 or 4o/o. Overall property tax revenue will increase by $207,000. o Total revenue is projected to increase by 5634,200, or 3.6Yo, as compared to the 2016- 2017 budget. o A transfer in from the Capital Equipment Reserve Fund is included in the amount of $1,866,300. This amount represents the result of a thorough analysis of our future equipment replacement needs, including maintenance replacement costs for our flood control system. A balance of $2,579,583 will remain in the Capital Reserve Fund.

Expenditures As noted in the Budget Message, the followingOrgaúzational Changes are included in the 2017- 2018 Proposed Budget:

Administration and Finance - Staff is recommending the addition of a full-time customer service representative to assist the front office, Town Clerk, and Finance Team. Our Town Treasurer is retiring this fiscal year. Labor costs will increase as we transition our finance team from $1,023,300 last year to $1,189,600 this year, an increase of $166,300. This number will be reduced by approximately $190,000 the following year with the retirement of our Town Treasurer as this position will not be filled moving forward.

Building and Planning - In FY 2016-2017 we added the contract services for a code enforcement officer. This has been extremely successful and has assisted staff and residents with a number of neighborhood, construction, ordinance and quality of life issues. Staff is recommending this contract continue and has added $35,000 to this year's budget to continue this service.

Central Marin Police Authority - The FY 2017-2018 budget increased by $202,259. The increase includes a one-time $95,000 payment into the CMPA Reserve Fund and a one- time pa¡rment to fund the Insurance Fund deficit.

Fire Department - In FY 20l5-20l6labor costs for current employees was $4,404,212. In FY 2016-2017 the Town began sharing services and ultimately merged fire personnel operationally with the Larkspur Fire Department. The Town did not fill the Director of Emergency Services position and shared a Fire Chief. By sharing personnel the Town lowered labor cost to $3,918,800. FY 2017-2018 reflects cost of living increases and a projected MOU agreement for a consolidated Fire service between the Town and the City of Larkspur. The proposed labor costs for FY 2017-2018 is $3,588,000. Staff is completing a draft JPA agreement for Council review and approval. This is a top priority for this fiscal year.

Parks and Recreation - Staff is coordinating with the Parks and Recreation Commission to evaluate the cost recovery model, programming, service delivery and capital improvement projects for Parks and Recreation. The Town has been subsidizing approximately $150,000 - $250,000 annually in programs, services and part-time labor costs. The initial Parks and Recreation budget reflects a $150,000 subsidy from the General Fund. The General Fund also covers salary and benefit costs for employees and other business related expenditures totaling $394,908. This expenditure is outside of the cost recovery model. The department brings in approximately $821,000 in revenue annually with a total operating budget of $1,365,400.

Public Works and Eneineerins - No changes in personnel from last fiscal year. It does reflect an increase in salaries by $147,500, as we have budgeted a full year for a full-time Director of Public \ü/orks/Town Engineer position. That transition was made last October.

w Maintenance and - Maintenance has undergone a major transition and reorganizationto improve efficiency and operations. Those changes are reflected in the Maintenance and Operations Work Plan. The net result is an overall savings of $31,600.

Other changes in the 2017-2018 Proposed Budget

The unfunded liability payment to Califomia Public Employees Retirement System (CaIPERS) in the amount of $976,600 is listed in the Non Departmental section of the budget. In previous years, a portion of the unfunded liability was allocated to each department.

As also detailed in the Budget Message, the Town has established a Supplemental Trust in order to make retirement contributions as though the CaIPERS discount rate were 6.50/o instead of the current 7 .5%. The goal over the next three years is to make contributions at the rate of a 6Yo discount rate. For the 2017-2018 fiscal year, payment to the trust of $366,600 represents the amount that the Town's contribution to CaIPERS has been reduced due to the fact that the final payment for the safety side fund was made in2016-2017.

Expenditures for Parks and Recreation in the amount of $394,408 which were previously included in the Recreation Fund are now included in the General Fund. This amount represents salaries, benef,rts and overhead related to administrative overhead.

Expenditures for salaries and benefits which were previously shown in the Sewer Fund are now shown in the General Fund. The Sewer fund will reimburse the General Fund for the $349,500 in expenditures. Capital Projects:

A listing of all capital projects proposed for 2017-2018 is shown in the Capital Budget section of the Proposed Budget.

Capital projects are funded as follows

o AB 1600 Developer Fees Fund $388,000. o Capital Improvement Fund $621,000. This fund includes grants and reimbursements. o Corte Madera Sales Tax Override Fund $5,460,347. Expenditures are grouped into the following areas: Fire Prevention, Flood Control, Streets and Potholes, Safe Routes to School, Senior and Youth Programs and Disaster Preparedness. o Marin Parks Measure A Fund: $212,653. o Recreation Capital Trust Fund: $100,000. o State Gasoline Tax Funds: $272,000. o Storm Drainage Special Tax Fund: $1,190,000. o Transportation Authority of Marin Sales Tax: $636,000. o Traffic Improvement Fund $25,000.

Other Funds:

Funds other than the General Fund that are included in the Operating Budget are listed in the Other Funds section of the budget. As noted above and in the Budget Message, the Capital Equipment Replacement Fund budget includes a transfer of $1,866,399 to the General Fund.

As also noted in the Budget Message, the Park Madera Center Fund shows the accumulated payments from the General Fund on behalf of Park Madera Center since its purchase in2006 Budget projections show that the Park Madera Center's revenue will equal or exceed its expenditures in the 2017-2018 fiscal year.

The Insurance Fund's ending balance is shown as -$192,980. However this balance includes a reserve for future claims based on the most recent information available. More information regarding the Insurance Fund and the Town's recent change to the Bay Cities Joint Power Authority risk pool is detailed in the Budget Message and in the Other Funds section of the budget.

The Recreation Fund includes revenue and expenditures related to programs and to facility rental. Salaries and other expenditures related to administrative overhead are included in the General Fund.

Several of the funds included in the Capital Funds and Other Funds sections will be included in the General Fund on the Town's financial statements but are segregated on the Town's books for tracking and reporting purposes. FISCAL IMPACT:

The ending fund balance for the General Fund is expected to increase by $2,188,091 in20l7- 2018. Of this amount, $1,866,399 is the result of a transfer from the Capital Equipment Replacement fund. The total ending fund balance is estimated to be 5I,997,698 as of June 30, 2018. This is ll.3% of the General Fund's total budgeted expenditures and transfers out.

As explained in the Budget Message, the Town's Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB) unfunded liability has been reduced by l8Yo, or $2,086,000 from 2012 to 2016. The 2017-2018 includes a $500,000 OPEB prefunding payment. The Town's OPEB liabilities are expected to be fully funded by 2033 if the Town continues to pre fund its OPEB obligations.

The total ending balances for all of the Town's funds, not including the funds associated with the Sanitary District, are projected to decrease by $3,545,300. This decrease is due to a decrease in the Sales Tax Override Fund of approximately $2.9 million anda decrease in the Storm Drainage Special Tax Fund of $527,000. The decreases in these two funds are due to planned capital project budgets.

Sanitarv District No 2 of Marin Countv

The Sanitary District consists of three separate funds: Sewer General Operating Fund, Sewer Capital Maintenance Fund and Sewer Connection Fee Project Fund.

Sewer General Operating Fund:

The Sewer General Operating Fund is where property tax revenue and se\ryer service charges are recorded. Expenditures in the Sewer General Operating Fund include expenditures related to sewer district administration, sanitation maintenance and Central Marin Sanitation Agency expenditures. Also included in a transfer to the Sewer Capital Maintenance Fund which has no revenue of its own.

Total projected revenue in the Sewer General Operating Fund has decreased by $366,200 as compared to the amount budgeted in20l6-2017. The decrease is due to a one-time payment in 2016-2011 from PG and E for force main replacement.

Total projected expenditures in the Sewer General Operating Fund, not including transfers to other funds, have increased by $101,900 as compared to the 2016-2017 budget. Please note that salaries and benefits for Town personnel have been removed from this fund and are now recorded in the General Fund. A pa¡rment to the Town for employee time spent on sewer related work in the amount of $349,500 is included in the Services and Supplies Section.

The transfer to the Sewer Capital Maintenance Fund has decreased by $1,695,900 as compared with the 2016-2017 budget. The ending fund balance in the Sewer General Operating Fund is estimated to be $7,254,363 as of June 30, 2018, an increase of $629,800 compared with the estimated ending balance as of June 30, 2017.

Sewer Capital Maintenance Fund:

The Sewer Capital Maintenance Fund is the fund where sewer capital expenditures are recorded. Expenditures for 2017-2018 are estimated to be $2,130,000. A transfer from the Sewer General Operating Fund is made in this amount. This fund does not have an ending balance.

Sewer Connection Project Fee Fund:

No expenditures or revenue is budgeted in this fund as it is not known at this time whether there will be sewer connection projects in20l7-2018. There is not an ending balance in this fund.

CONCLUSION:

The action recommended is for the Council is to conduct a public hearing on the Proposed Budget and Work Plan for the Town Operating Budget and the Town Capital Budget. Pending the outcome of that hearing, the Council would direct staff to incorporate any changes identified by the Council. The budget could be adopted contingent on staff making changes identified by Council.

Also recommended is for a hearing to be held on the Proposed Budget for Sanitary District No 2 for Marin County. That budget could also be adopted contingent on staff making changes identified by the Sanitary District Board.

Budget Message Fiscal Year 2OL7-2OLB

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Town Council:

Overview

It is my pleasure to present the Fiscal Year 2OL7-2018 Town of Corte Madera Proposed Budget and Work plan for your consideration. lt represents staffs best effort at projecting revenues and expenditures for the coming year, within the guidelínes set by Council, and with assistance from the Town Council Finance Subcommittee, comprised of Mayor Diane Furst and Councilmember James Andrews.

The strong economy continues to define our financial outlook, with both revenues and costs rising to unprecedented levels. Due to the Council's fiscal prudence, the Town is positioned to meet the financial challenges of the coming year. There are long-term fiscal threats to the Town's fiscal sustainability and health to consider, making Fiscal Year 2OL7-L8 an important one in terms of financial planning for the future.

Overall, the Town's financial situation is good, with the proposed budget projecting an operating surplus of over SSZ1,OOO at the close of Fiscal Year 20t8. The budget maintains prudent reserve balances, provides funds to cover the cost of ongoing operations, and improves upon disaster preparedness, senior and youth programs. The budget includes a number of capital projects to improve drainage; flood control; street maintenance; accessibility; sewer infrastructure; bike and pedestrian safety; our parks and facilities; and includes studies to improve traffic flow and safety throughout the Town.

Many departments have undergone a reorganization to better position our workload to meet the needs of our community, while remainíng cost effective. Staff has the resources necessary to províde our residents with exceptional municipal services, maintenance of Town infrastructure, and enhancements to the community through the proposed 58,268,700 Capital lmprovement Program of 46 projects.

The proposed budget projects that the Town's primary revenue source, sales tax, will increase 4.7% (5300,000), property tax will increase 4% (5200,000), permits and fees will increas e 4.L%

(563,000). Overall revenue will grow by 3.6% (56I+,ZOO¡ from the prior fiscal year. Our revenue estimates are conservative and we may revisit this projection mid-year.

The operational reorganization and increased revenue is timely, as it is allowing the Town to address infrastructure needs and the rising cost of business. Cost of living increases to payroll, unfunded liability payment increases to CaIPERS, and prefunding commitments to retiree health continue to be a challenge. The Town participates in many joint powers authorities (JPAs) to provide services to the community, and these JPAs are facing similar operational increases that are being passed to Corte Madera and other member agencies. ln addition, charges from contractors have risen at least tO-3O%, with bids for capital projects (in Corte Madera and throughout the Bay Area) routinely coming in well-above budget.

Organizational Changes

Key changes for FY 2OL7-2OL8 include the following:

Administration and Finance - Staff is recomm ending the addition of a full-time customer service representative to assist the front office, Town Clerk, and Finance Team. Our Town Treasurer is retiring this fiscal year. Labor costs will increase as we transition our finance team from S1,023,300 last year to S1,189,600 this year. This number will be reduced by approximately StgO,OOO the following year with the retirement of our Town Treasurer as this position will not be filled moving forward.

Buildine and Planning - ln FY 2076-2OL7 we added the contract services for a code enforcement officer. This has been extremely successful and has assisted staff and residents with a number of neighborhood, construction, ordinance and quality of life issues. Staff is recommending this contract continue and has added 535,000 to this year's budget to continue this service.

Central Marin Police Authoritv - The FY 2OL7-2018 budget increased by $202,259. The increase includes a one-time 595,000 payment into the CMPA Reserve Fund and a one-time payment to fund the lnsurance Fund deficit.

Fire Department - ln FY 2OL5-2OL6labor costs for current employees was 54,404,2I2. ln FY 2OL6-20t7 the Town began sharing services and ultimately merged fire personnel operationally with the Larkspur Fire Department. The Town did not fillthe Director of Emergency Services position and shared a Fire Chief. By sharing personnelthe Town lowered labor cost to 53,918,800. FY 2OI7-2018 reflects cost of living increases and a projected MOU agreement for a consolidated Fire service between the Town and the City of Larkspur. The proposed labor costs for FY 2017-2018 is 53,588,000. Staff is completing a draft JPA agreement for Council review and approval. This is a top priority for this fiscal year.

2 Recreation budget reflects a St50,000 subsidy from the General Fund. The General Fund also covers salary and benefit costs for employees and other business related expenditures totaling 5394,908. This expenditure is outside of the cost recovery model. The department brings in approximately 5821,000 in revenue annually with a total operating budget of $1,365,400.

Public Works and Engineerins - No changes in personnel from last fiscal year. lt does reflect an increase in salaries by $L47,500, as we have budgeted a fullyear for a full-time Director of Public Works/Town Engineer position. That transition was made last October.

Public Works Maintenance and Operations - Maintenance has undergone a major transition and reorganization to improve efficiency and operations. Those changes are reflected in the Maintenance and Operations Work Plan. The net result is an overall savings of 531,600.

Bav Cities Risk Pool

Historically, the Town of Corte Madera has purchased commercial insurance for workers compensation, general liability, employment practices, auto and equipment coverage. ln an effort to ensure fiscal prudence, quality risk management, and insurance coverage at an affordable rate, staff researched a number of risk pools. After much research, the Bay Cities Joint Powers lnsurance Authority (BCJPIA) was identified as a being cost effective and quality risk pool, with a proven track record. On July 1, 20L7, the Town will join BCiPIA and benefit in the following areas:

1. Lower premiums 2. Enhanced coverage 3. Lower self-retention limits 4. Access to best practices policies related to risk management, contracts, risk transfer, safety practices, and training 5. Staff at all levels of the Town will have access to, and a close working relationship with 19 other municipalities both large and small

Other Post-Emplovment Benefits (OPEBI

The Town began prefunding 5500,000 annually toward retiree health unfunded liability in FY 2014-20L5. At the current prefunding levels and discount rate assumptions, the Town's OPEB unfunded liability will reach fullfunding status in 16 years (2033). The Town currently has approximately 52,000,000-in a trust account. The OPEB actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) has been reduced by 1-8% between 2012 and 20L6 (from $t1,290,000 to 59,704,000). On March 1, 2OL6, Bartel Associates completed a report and analysis on the Town's retiree healthcare changes. That report is available on the Town website: http ://www.townofcortemad e ra.ors/Docu m entCenter/H ome/View/20 L4

3 CaIPERS Retirement Program

Significant increases have been imposed on the Town and will continue for the foreseeable future by California Public Employees Retirement System (CaIPERS). CaIPERS continues to demand extraordinary sums from employers in an effort to make-up for prior year shortfalls in its portfolio performance. The changes made by CaIPERS in the last few years are planned to achieve 100% funding for all plans within a 3O-year time period. This means that there will be sufficient funds held in each plan to pay obligations for all inactive participants (including retirees) and benefits as a result of prior service for actives. CaIPERS calculates the value of the Town's plan assets based on the market value of assets {MVA). The market value of assets values the assets based on the current value of assets held by the plan at the end of a fiscal year and reflects the solvency of the plan at that point in time.

Unfunded Liabilitv Lump Sum Pavments to CaIPERS:

The Town has added 5976,233 annually in mandatory charges to address Corte Madera's portion of Ca|PERS' unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL). We know that we will be making these payments to CaIPERS until 2046, and while there is an amortization schedule, we know the amounts in the schedule are subject to change as CaIPERS reassesses the UAAL annually. Thefunded statusof a pension plan is defined asthe ratioof assetsto a plans accrued liabilities. Based on the CaIPERS' actuarial valuations as of June 30,2015, the Town's plans are currently funded as follows: Fire Safety 75.4O% (57,800,000 unfunded); and M iscellane ous 7 3.6O% (S7, 100,000 unfunded).

11.5 Supplemental Trust:

To establish a long-term plan to address the unfunded pension liabilities, the Town hired Bartel Associates to complete a pension analysis. The analysis forecasts that CaIPERS will trend to a 6% discount rate over a period of years. This is important to note as it is a first step in planning for the volatility of future rates. To control future rates the Town developed a strategy to identify the annual cost difference between CaIPERS current 7.5% discount rate and a 6.5% discount rate (the goal being 6%oover the next three years). The Town established a 1L5 Supplemental Trust, with a goal to make contributions to the Trust as if the discount rate were 6.50/o. This will prepare the Town for future volatility with the intent to control contribution percentage of payroll costs to remain in the 40 to 42% range and position the Town to appropriately fund the pension plans over the long-term. The pension analysis is available on the Town website: http://www.townofcortemadera.orglDocumentCenter/Home/View/28L5 ln Fiscal Year 2016-2017, the Town paid off a portion of its pension liability (5366,600) for the Safety Plan called a "Side Fund." The Town Council directed staff at its May 2, 2Ot7 meeting to begin funding the 1L5 Supplemental Trust in the amount of 5366,600 annually. ln June of 2020, the Town will have an additional 5229,000 available to fund the 115 SupplementalTrust when the last "Side Fund" payment is made to the Miscellaneous Plan.

4 Recent Pension Reform:

On January 1, 2Ì!3,the Public Employee Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) went into effect. This State law applies to employees hired after Janua ry L, 2Ot3 who are new to CaIPERS. These employees are termed PEPRA members and employees that were enrolled in PERS (without significant separation) prior to January L,2OL3 are now referred to as classic members. pEpRA miscellaneous members will be enrolled in a2% at 62 plan and PEPRA safety members (Fire and Police) will be enrolled in a2.7o/o at 57 plan. PEPRA members will be required to pay half the normal cost of their plans.

Nesotiated Pension Reform with Labor Groups:

The 2013 pension reform law put in place a rule which allows that employers can impose Classic employees to pay more toward the Normal CaIPERS pension costs, if not collectively bargained byJanuary L,2OL8. The maximum that can be imposed for Miscellaneous employees is 8% and L2%for Safety employees. ln recent years, the Town has met the pension reform goal and has exceeded it by negotiating the following cost sharing pension reforms with the Town labor groups (additional5.5%for misc. and 6%lor safety). The intent of the Town reforms are to share pension costs with current employees on a 50/50 cost sharing plan.

Employees pay the following toward CaIPERS normal cost:

Firefighter Association - Employees pay L8% of totalCaIPERS cost Town Manager and Department Heads - Employees pay L3.5% of totalCalpERS cost Mid-Management/Miscellaneous - Employees pay l3.5o/o of total CaIPERS cost SEIU/Public Works Ma¡ntenance - Employees pay L2.5% of totalCalPERS cost

Sales Tax Override (Measure Bl

Fiscal Year 2OL7-2OL8 will be our fourth cycle of Measure B. lt has positioned the Town to maintain and improve our infrastructure. The Town Council has determined that expenditures are to be made in the following areas: Fire Prevention; Flood Control; Streets and Potholes; Safe Routes to School, Senior and Youth Programs; and Disaster Preparedness. To date, the sales tax has supported the following improvements totaling 5Z,l1,I,LO4:

o Fire Prevention - S934,I2L o Flood Control- 5866,939 o Street lmprovements - SS9O,3Z9 o Safe Routes to Schools - 52L0,429 o Senior and Youth Programs - 589,237 o Disaster Preparedness - 520,000

5 The Proposed budget tY 2OI7-2018 identifies 55,460,347 of infrastructure improvements in the followíng areas:

o Flood Control- S2,O74,OOO o Street lmprovements - 5842,000 o Safe Routes to Schools - 52,487,000 o Senior and Youth Programs - 537,347 o Disaster Preparedness - 520,000

Storm Ðrainage SpecialTax Fund

This fund supports the construction of storm and flood protection projects, and drainage and flood control systems within the Town. The opening balance for FY 2OL7-201.8 is 5802,270 with anticipated revenues of 5663,000, bringing the Fund to 5L,465,270. Staff is recommending 51,190,000 in storm drain improvements for FY 2OL7-2OLB.

Sanitarv District No. 2 - Subsidiarv to the Town of Corte Madera

The beginning balance of the Sewer GeneralOperating Fund for FY 2OL7-2O18 ¡s 56,624,569 with anticipated revenues of 55,996,000, bringing the fund to 512,620,563. Annual operating costs for this fiscal year are estimated to be 53,198,200. ln addition, staff is proposing 52,130,000 in sewer capital and maintenance projects for this fiscal year.

Recreation Capital Trust Fund

The opening balance of the Recreation Capital Trust Fund is 5983,048. Staff is proposing S100,000 in capital improvements to various parks projects, which includes the repaving of Town Park tennis courts. As discussed at our June 6, 2017 Town Council meeting, staff is working with the Parks and Recreation Commission to analyze the state of our parks and facilities and to provide a priority wish list for future project enhancements. Based on that analysis, staff will come back to Council with recommendations mid-year.

Park Madera Center Fund

I am pleased to report that due to the recent debt refinancing and renegotiated lease agreements, The Town's annual revenues slightly exceed expenditures. Anticipated rental income for FY 20L7-2OLB ¡s 5673,000 with anticipated debt service payments of 5665,000. This is the first year since the center was purchased that revenues exceeded expenditures. This trend should continue moving forward.

The shopping center was purchased in 2006. Since that purchase, the Town has had to expend General Fund monies to offset expenditures to maintain the center. Those accumulated expenditures over the years are reflected in this fund in the amount of S1,940,900.

6 Equipment Replacement Fund

The Town continues to plan for the future to ensure our equipment and ínfrastructure is

maintained. The Town Equipment Replacement Fund has an opening balance of 52,692,983. I want to note, our anticipated goal last year for this fund was $4,559,382, with an internal deficit of approximately S2,0O0,OOO to reach that goal. Staff completed a thorough analysis of our future equipment replacement needs, including maintenance replacement costs for our flood control system. The 52,692,983 reflects that analysis. A transfer of 51,866,399 has been made to the General Fund which is listed under Transfers ln in the General Fund. This transfer has eliminated the internal deficit.

Reserves

By Council policy, the Town must maintain IO% of the General Fund in a reserve account. For FY 2OL7-2018, staff anticipates the Town will have in excess of LOo/o reserve. The General Fund ending fund balance is anticipated to be $1,997,698 which is rt3% of General Fund expenditures and transfers.

General Revenues

Excluding transfers, General Fund revenues are projected at5L8,273,500, which is 5634,200 more than last year. The strong economy is anticipated to continue the upward trends for key revenue streams, including sales and property tax.

General Fund Expenditures

Please note that the budget format has been changed from previous years resulting in items previously recorded in other funds now being shown in the General Fund.

The primary reasons for the increases to the General Fund are listed below.

L Salaries have increased by 5363,100 as a result of scheduled increases to the ZOLT-IOIB salary schedule for all employee groups, the addition of a second Finance Director for the 20L7-20L8 fiscal year only, and because Recreation and Sewer fund salaries previously recorded in other funds are now in the general fund. Additionally, a Director of Public Works position has been added for the entire 2OL7-2OL8 fiscal year. 2. Retirement unfunded liability payments have increased by 5225,400. The Town has made its final payment for the safety síde fund. The savings of approximately SgOg,OO0 will be paid to a trust to pay for unfunded PERS liability and that amount is reflected in the increase. 3. Retiree health benefits have increased by 559,000. This amount is determined by an actuarial valuation.

7 4. Expenditures for police services have increased by 5202,000. This increase includes a one-time payment toward a reserve and a one-time payment toward the insurance fund.

Conclusion

The proposed 2OL7-2018 budget represents a fiscally prudent operating budget that includes an aggressive capital improvement plan to address the Town's most pressing needs, while maintaining a staffing structure that provides the highest quality of service. The Town's staff remains committed to providing excellent community services to the residents of Corte Madera.

Acknowledgements

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Town staff for their commitment to Corte Madera and their hard work, and sound budget stewardship throughout this fiscal year. Our employees continue to meet the challenges every day. This budget is a result of a tremendous amount of effort by our new Finance Director Daria Carrillo. I want to thank Daria for her hard work in preparing this budget.

Special recognition goes to the Finance Department staff, Jonna lntoschi and Lina Azevedo for their diligence in accounting for the Town's revenues and expenditures. I want to recogníze our Town Treasurer George Warman for his many years of dedicated service and for his assistance during this transition period within our Finance Department.

I would also like to recognize and thank our Director of Public Works/Town Engineer and Assistant Town Manager David Bracken and his team for their comprehensive work product and diligence with the Capital lmprovement Program. They are truly the first line of defense in protecting ou r Town's infrastructu re.

Finally, we all wish to thank the Town Council's Finance Comm¡ttee, Mayor Diane Furst and Councilmember James Andrews, for their review, comments and good counsel during the budget prepa ration process.

20 GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES

LABOR COSTS

a Salaries: Salaries and salary-related costs,are the largest singte expenditure for the Town, approximately 53% of the Town's expenditures, not including police Department compensation.

a Health Benefits: The Town currently has a cafeteria benefits plan that pays the equivalent of family Kaiser, dental, and vision insurance currently in the amount of approximately 52,000 per month. The Town pays a lesser amount for employees who do not elect family coverage.

Retirement: The Town is a member of the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS). classic employees, those a member of the pERS system or a reciprocal retirement system, are enrolle d in a 2.5% at 55 or a 3% aT 50 plan, depending on whether the employee is a miscellaneous or safety member.

ln January 2013 the State Public Employees' Pension Reform Act (pEpRA) went into effect. person Any who becomes a new member of the retirement system on or after January L,2073 may only be offered the new pension benefit plan specified in the Reform Act. All non-safety new hires are subject to a formula providing 2% of compensation for each year of service for an individual retiring at age 62, increasing to 2.5%for an individual retiring at age 67. Safety employees are subject to a formula providing for 2'7% compensation for each year of service for an individual retiring at age 57.

Currently, part of the pension rate, the normalcost, is expressed as a percentage of monthly salary' Employees pay the employee share, which is 9% for classic safety members, 8%for classic miscellaneous members, !2.25o/ofor pEpRA safety members and 6'5%for PEPRA miscellaneous members. The employer PERS rate is Z4.4çg%for classic safety employees,10.848% for classic miscellaneous employe es, L1.72g%ofor pEpRA safety employees and 6.908% for PEPRA miscellaneous employees. Of these amounts, classic safety employees pay 9% of salary toward the employer rate and classic miscellaneous pay employees 5.5% of satary toward the employer rate, resulting in all classic employees paying more than soo/o of the normal pension cost.

ln May 20L4, the CaIPERS Board adopted changes to the existing pooling structure policies and a new policy for allocating the pools' unfunded accrued liabìlity, effectíve for the 20L5-16 employer contribution rates. Due to unintended consequences resulting from PEPRA the changes and existing PERS policies on risk pools, changes were necessary ensure proper to the funding of the pools. ln order to address the problem, CalpERS combined twelve risk pools into two, one for Safety and one for Misceilaneous. Employer contributions toward the unfunded liability for plans in a risk pool are collected as do¡ar 2L GENERAL FU ND EXPEN DITURES, cont¡nued

amounts instead of contribution rates expressed as a percentage of payroll for an estimated 30 years.

As a result of these changes, in addition to the PERS normal cost, the Town must pay its unfunded PERS liability, which is approximately S15 million. For 2Ot7 /2108 the Town's required payment towards the unfunded liability is approximately 5977,200.

ln 2003, CaIPERS combined agencies with less than 100 members into risk pools based on plan type. The Employer Side Fund was created to account for the difference between the funded status of the pool and the funded status of individual plans. The side fund for the safety plan will be paid in full in 2OL6/2017. The savings of 5366,000 per year will be paid into a trust fund intended to allow for the Town to accumulate funds for the purpose of offsetting the unfunded liability. One of the goals of trust is to allow the Town's contribution to PERS to not exceed 4t% of payroll. Current projections show the PERS contribution exceeding 6O%in future years if payments continue to be made using the current 75% discount rate. By calculating the discount rate at approximately 6%, the Town's contribution rate should not exceed 4L% of payroll. The unfunded liability payments are included in the Non Departmental budget.

a Other benefits: The Town participates in Medicare at a rate of I.45% of total salary without limit.

The Fire Department provides Advanced Life Support Emergency Medical Services in partnership with the Ross Valley Paramedic Authority (RVPA), an eight-member joint powers authority operating throughout the Ross Valley. The Department provides out-of-county mutual aid for major incidents when requested. Agency staff are also assigned to County response teams in the areas of hazardous material emergencies, urban search and rescue, incident management, fire investigation, regionaltraining and critical incident stress debriefing. The Department also offers public education using the standardized CERT and Get Reody curriculum, as well as other disaster readiness and safety programs. CPR and choke saving courses are also provided.

2015/2017 ACCOMPLTSHMENTS

a Continued to make progress toward consolidated services with the City of Larkspur. The two Departments are currently operating as a functionally consolidated Fire Department. All personnel are being shared operationally and are being deployed to provide the most efficient and effective fire and ems coverage throughout both communities.

Our newest firefighters joined 1 other recruit hired on the Larkspur side of the shop. After successfully completing our joínt regional academy (at the top of the class), the 4 recruits have been completing rotations at allfour stations and on each of the various department apparatus.

a Presented and/or assisted with numerous CERT and GET READY disaster preparedness classes, CPR and school safety training classes and station tour.

a lnitiated the development a new partnership with Ross Valley, Larkspur and Kentfield Fire Departments for the sharing of Fire Prevention services including plan review, inspection services and code enforcement. a Through the consolidation Working Group we have made significant progress toward the blending of the two employee groups and a potential labor contract for the new organization.

31 201712018 GOALS/WORK PLAN

GOAL 1: Consolidation of Fire Services I Staff is developing a consolidation plan for the Council and Community to consider The plan will include a complete consolidation of fire services between Corte Madera and Larkspur.

GOAI 2: Development of Regional Fire Prevention Bureau Staff has been working with other fire chiefs in the Ross Valley on the goal of developing a single Fire Prevention Bureau for the entire valley. The advantages of this model would include greater efficiency and a more standardized approach to code enforcement, inspection services and plan review. lt would also enhance our ability to have a more specialized approach toward the various areas of fire prevention and vegetation management.

GOAL 3: lmplement Firefighter Wellness/Fitness Program Staff is developing a more comprehensive wellness and fitness program which will include peer fitness trainers and peer support representatives to assist with the maintenance of both physical and emotional health of the firefighters.

GOAL 4: Continue Regional Partnerships (and attempt to expand where practicalf Current partnerships include the Ross Valley Paramedic Authority, Marin County Fire lnvestigation Team, Marin County Hazardous Materials Response Team, Marin County Urban Search and Rescue Team, and an agreement with the City of Larkspur for the sharing of fire personnel. Dispatch services are provided by contract with the Sheriff's Office. Staff is continually looking into expanding opportunities with neighboring agencies.

GOAL 5: Support, assist and facilitate the Central Marin Training Consortium The Fire Department participates in a regional training consortium that consists of 5 local fire agencies. The member agencies pool resources and subject matter expertise to deliver high quality all-risk training to its members. This successful program has greatly improved training but requires a high level of commitment and support in order to remain effective.

GOAI 6: Assist with the process to move the Marin Emergency Radio Authority {MERA) Next Generation radio system forward. ln Novemb er 2O!4, Marin County voters approved funding for a new radio system Staffwill continue to participate in the regional migration towards the new cou ntywide emergency radio system.

48 CENTRAL MARIN POLICE AUTHORITY - GENERAT FUND

On January I,2Ot3, the Central Marin Police Authority was formed. The Central Marin Police Authority consists of the Town of Corte Madera, the City of Larkspur, and the Town of San Anselmo. Prior to the Central Marin Police Authority, police services were provided to the Town of Corte Madera bythe Twin Cities Police Authority (formed in 1980)which consisted of the Town of Corte Madera and the City of Larkspur.

The Central Marin Police Authority is administered under a joint powers authority to provide police services to Corte Madera, Larkspur, and San Anselmo. The agency is governed by the Police Authority Council, comprised of two members from each of the City/Town Councils of Corte Madera, Larkspur, and San Anselmo.

An annual budget is adopted by the Central Marin Police Authority Council and funded through assessments to the three members. The costs for administration, communications, and investigations are shared on an equal basis with each member paying a third. The costs for field operations, juvenile/school resource officers, and Traffic are allocated according to a funding formula based upon the number of calls for service, total crimes, citations and accidents on a rolling three-year period. This method of cost allocation ensures that if one member has additional patrol field needs, the costs are fairly allocated to the town/city receiving the services.

The percentages of the funding formula for the Police Authority budget are: Corte Madera 27..86%, Larkspur 33.7Lo/o, and San Anselmo 38.43%.

89 INSURANCE FUND

The lnsurance Fund receives and expends funds related to the Town's liability and workers com pensation self-insu rance coverage.

Liabilitv lnsurance

On July 1,2Ot7, the Town became a member of the Bay Cities Joint Powers lnsurance Authority (Bay Cities), a self-ínsurance poolthat provides liability insurance coverage to nineteen cities in the Bay Area. Each member agency selects a self-insured retention limit. The Town's self-insured retention, below which the agency pays the claim costs, is 5250,000 per occurrence, with coverage of SgO million. The insurance authority is responsible for costs above the limit, although it purchases excess insurance coverage for costs above St m¡ll¡on up to S20 million. A premium for coverage is charged based on the self-insured limit selected, the member agency's claim history and exposure, and the fiscal standing of the pool.

Prior to joiníng Bay Cities, the Town's self-insured limit was 5250,000 per incident with coverage of S10 million.

Workers Compensation

Effective July 1, 2OL7, the Town also joined the Bay Cities self-insurance pool for workers compensation coverage. The Town's self-insured retention in the Bay Cities Workers Compensation pool is 5150,000. Costs in excess of this limit are paid by the Authority, although it purchases excess insurance coverage from a commercial insurance agency. Coverage is 52 million. The previous self-insured retention was 51 million with coverage of St m¡llion.

Annually, Bay Cities evaluates the financial risk position of each member, and establishes an annual assessment based on outstanding claims and claim history.

2017-ãOLB Hiehliehts ln addition to the increased coverage and reduced self-insured retention, the Town's overall insurance premiums are expected to decrease by approximately S1¿,OOO/

NITARY D¡STRI

The Sanitary District maintains approximately 235,000 lineal feet of gravity sewer mains and 23,000 linealfeet of force mains. Nineteen (19) pump stations are used to pump approximately one million gallons (average dry weather flow) of wastewater per day to Central Marin Sanitation Agency (CMSA) treatment plant, which provides primary and secondary treatment. There are 5,665 laterals connected to the District's collection system.

Public Works personnel provide both routine and emergency cleaning and maintenance of the sewer system. Contractualservices are used for some special vacuum cleaning of sewer lines and for some emergency response activities. Major repair work of sewer lines is provided by private contract. The pump stations are maintained through a contract with cMsA.

The major objectives of Sanitary District #2 are the reduction of inflow and infiltration (l & l) of ground water into the sewer system, the replacement of aging gravity mains, and the improvement of the level of maintenance by Public Works personnel and private contractual services to reduce the number of sewer stoppages per year. Use of the lnfrastructure Management Geographic lnformation System (GlS)w¡ll assist in this.

The District updated its Sewer Master Plan in September 2009. The Master Plan provides guidance for fiscal planning on system upgrades and refurbishments over the next forty years. The plan has identified 50% of the sanitary sewer system as being over 40 years old. Using this plan as guíde, Sanitary District #2 will continue an aggressive program of repair and replacement of the sanitary infrastructure. To finance this effort, the Sewer User Service Charge was increased from $tAA per sewer user unit to S+gg per sewer user unit over a 5 year period and will continue at that level until it is revised by the Board of Directors.

109 CENTRAT MARIN SANITATION AGENCY

The Central Marin Sanitation Agency (CMSA) was formed in 1979 to meet the future sewer treatment needs of four sewer agencies: Sanitary District No. 1 (Ross Valley and now the City of Larkspur), Sanitary District No. 2 (The Town of Corte Madera), the San Rafael (City of San Rafael), and the City of Larkspur (since de-annexed sewer system to Sanitary District No.1. ln L995 the City of Larkspur de-annexed the sewer system it maintained in approximately one half of the City of Larkspur to Sanitary District No.1. Sanitary District No. I had always provided sewer service to approximately one half of the City of Larkspur in the Greenbrae area which was originally unincorporated.

The CMSA wastewater treatment plant was completed in January 1985. The plant provides advanced secondarytreatment of up to 125 million gallons per day. lt serves a population of 115,000 which equates to 55,795 equivalent dwelling units for the combined member agencies. CMSA also maintains the District's 19 pump stations by contract. The Fats, Oil and Grease (FOG) Source Control Program began in FY 2010-2011through a contract with CMSA.

CORTE MADERA TOWN COUNCIL STAf,'F REORT

Report Date: June 13,2017 Meeting Date: June 20,2017

TO: TOWN MANAGER AND MEMBERS OF THE TOWN COUNCIL

FROM: REBECCA VAUGHN, TOWN CLERK

SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE ACTION TO EITHER (1) ADOPT ORDINANCE NO. 966 AMENDING SECTION 2.38 OF THE TOWN OF CORTE MADERA MUNICIPAL CODE TO MOVE THE NOVEMBER 2017 ELECTION TO JLINE 2018 RESULTING IN AN EXTENSION OF THE CURRENT COUNCIL TERMS UP TO SIX MONTHS OR (2) ADOPT RESOLUTTON 2812017 CALLTNG THE ELECTION rN NOVEMBER 2OI7 AND REQUESTING THE COUNTY OF MARTN TO CONSOLIDATE THE ELECTION

PURPOSE:

Consider Adoption of Ordinance No. 966 amending section 2.38 of the Town of Corte Madera municipal code to move the November7,2017 election to June 5,2018 resulting in an extension of the current council terms up to six months

Consider adoption of Resolution 2812017 of the Town Council of the Town of Corte Madera proposing that an election be held in the Town of Corte Madera on Tuesday, November 7, 2017 (electing office holders to four and a half year terms); Requesting the Board of Supervisors to consolidate with any other election conducted on said date, and requesting election services by the Marin County Elections Department.

TOWN MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION:

Consider and discuss the following options: 1. Adopt Ordinance No. 966 amending Section 2.38 of the Town of Corte Madera Municipal Code to move the November 7,2017 election to June 5,2018, resulting in the extension of current Council terms for up to six months; or 2. Approve Resolution 28/2017 and move forward with the municipal election scheduled for November 7,2017

At the June 6, 2017 Town Council meeting, the Town Council discussed available options and voted to introduce Ordinance 966, which would amend Section 2.38 of the Town of Corte Madera Municipal Code to move the November 7,2017 election to June 5,2018, and would result in the extension of current Council terms for up to six months. The staff report and financial analysis from the June 6, 2017 meeting is included with this report as Attachment 1.

During its deliberations, the Town Council discussed the purpose of Senate Bill 415, which was to increase voter turnout. By moving the municipal elections from November 2017 to June 2018, the Town has the

7 .I.i potential to double its voter turnout, which was 32.09Yo in November 2015. Neighboring municipalities that hold elections in June of even years typically experience voter turnout in the 60-65Yo range.

A second issue of importance to the Council in its discussions was the cost savings involved with moving the election fromNovember 2017 to June 2018. Because the vast majority of the county's school districts and special districts are not holding an election in November 2017, a November 2017 election is now projected to cost Corte Madera as much as $7-7.50 per registered voter.

Whereas the June 2018 projected range is $1.75-$3.00 per registered voter, which is identical to the range that was originally projected for the 2015 municipal election.

While the Town Council amended the election ordinance in20l6, that change affected only the 2022 eTection. Although the state Elections Code does not allow the Council to make another change to The 2022 election date, the Elections Code does not prevent the Town from making changes to the 2017 and 2019 election schedules.

The County of Marin as a matter of practice, has requested that the Town indemniff the County in the event a challenge or dispute occurs due to this unusual circumstance. The Town Attorney and County Counsel are in the process of flrnalizing that agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The estimated cost of the election, if held as scheduled on November 7,2017 could be as high as $46,650, baseduponaprojectedcostof$7.00-$T.50perregisteredvoter. Thiswouldbe$33,T06greaterthanexpenses incurred in the 2015 election. In comparison, the cost range for November odd year elections in the past has been $1.75-$3.00 per registered voter. According to the Elections Department, the cost for Corte Madera specifically in November 2015 was $2.2085 per registered voter. Staff anticipates the November 2019 election cost to exceed that of 2017.

The Marin County Department of Elections has confirmed that it anticipates the range of cost for the June 201 8 election to be $1.75-$3.00 per registered voter, which would result in a cost similar to that incurred in the 2015 municipal election.

REQUESTED ACTION

Due to the increasing cost of the November 2017 election, staff wanted to make Council aware of this issue given Council's philosophy of fiscal prudence and responsibility.

At this time, the Council is being asked to take the following actions:

1. Adopt Ordinance No. 966, amending section 2.38 of the Town of Corte Madera municipal code to move the November 7 , 2017 election to June 5, 201 8 resulting in an extension of the current council terms up to six months. This action would save the Town approximately $33,000 while keeping the Town on track to meet the requirements of SB 415.

2. If the Town Council declines to do adopt Ordinance No. 966, the Council must adopt Resolution No. 28/2017 calling the November 2017 election and requesting consolidation with the County.

There are so many timeless qualities of lifestyle here, and yet so many changes afoot, many of which proceed so slowly that ít takes a long view to notice them. On the Commission, I am a voice for the continuity of all the good thíngs that Corte Madera has to offer, and a voice of inclusion for all the changing services that Parks and Rec might pursue.

PERSONAL INFORMATION (How long have you lived in Corte Madera, family size, etc.) I was born in San 'Francisco in t972, and moved to east Corte Madera in 1976, just in time for the drought.

My mom. is a retired public school teacher and my dad cont¡nues to be active supporting and photographing Marin prep sports.

BACKGROUND:

The Marin County Civil Grand Jury has published a report entitled Overcoming Barriers to Housing Affordability. The Grand Jury Report lists seven findings and seven suggested

1 7.I.iii recommendations to address the housing affordability challenge in Marin County. The Grand Jury has requested that the Town of Corte Madera review and respond to four of the suggested 'recommendations, which focus on improvements to current processing procedures. A response to the suggested recommendations has also been requested of the County of Marin, the other Marin cities and towns, public school districts and utility services. The Town's written response must be submitted to the Grand Jury by July 12,2011. Staff has reviewed the Grand Jury Report and has prepared responses to the four suggested recommendations.

On April t2, 2017 , the 20t6-201 7 Marin County Civil Grand Jury released a report entitled Overcoming Barriers to Housing Affordability (Grand Jury Report). This Grand Jury Report addresses the cost of living in Marin and offers suggested solutions to improve housing affordability for all households. The report does not focus on "affordable housing," meaning housing that is subsidized by the goveûrment and made available to households meeting certain income thresholds (e.9., a below-market-rate unit of Section 8 resident). Rather, the primary focus of the report is on "housing affordability," which is the measure of whether a typical household in Marin can afford to rent or purchase a market-rate home. This Grand Jury Report can be accessed at the following link: https://www.marincounty.org/depts/gj/reports-and-responses/reports-responses/2016- I 7/overcoming-barriers-to-housine-affordability.

The Civil Grand Jury researched how the local jurisdictions in Marin have addressed the following key problems that influence and create barriers to achieving housing affordability:

Community resistance; The expense to build in Marin County; The 'þlanning process" that is required in Marin stifles development progress; and The cities/towns in Marin and the County of Marin have taken individual approaches to address the problem, resulting in a lack of countywide consistency.

The'oDiscussion" section of the Grand Jury Report (report pages 4 through 18) summarizes five barriers: community resistance; the excessive expense to build; the planning process; the unique challenges facing low-income af.fordable housing; and myths and perceptions. The Grand Jury has identified at least one suggested solution for each barrier. All of the suggested solutions are linked to adjustments in the current civic practices.

The suggested solutions cite real examples of successful approaches to overcoming the specific barrier. For example, one of the suggested solutions to overcoming community resistance and outreach is to adopt a "specific plan" for a geographic area (example used is the Redwood City Downtown Precise Plan). The upfront work of creating a specific plan allows citizens to work together to define a community vision and set land use and design parameters for future development. The specific plan provides the community and the developer with aclear understanding on what is expected, and the extent and type of development that is acceptable before a development project is desigued and submitted for public review.

The Grand Jury Report presents the following findings, which are listed on report page 20:

FI. Political will þr the construction of new housing is constrained by County-wide vocal citizen opposition.

2 F2. The costs of land and development make it too expensive to build low-income affordable housing in Marin.

F3. Developers routinely respond that they do not try to build housing in Marin because of the dfficulties imposed by the local regulatory requirements and citizen complaints.

F4. Responsibility þr housing in Marin is fragmented with little overall coordination ømong different agencies in the County as well as the Cities and Towns.

F5. Active planning for the creation of low-income affordable housing does not occur within our cities, towns, and the County.

F6. Over 60,000 people commute each day to jobs in Marin, many living outside the County.

F7, Proposals to build low-income affordable housing create immediøte neighbor opposition. Efforts to mediate with neighborhood groups are often too late in the process and have been ineffective.

The Grand Jury Report presents the following list of suggested recommendations, which are listed on page 20 of the report:

R] Each planning department should begin regularly scheduled meetings at which developers can speøk, early in the process, with all relevant members of staff to discuss ímpacts of proposed development and potential solutions to problems.

R2 Each planning department should develop a proactive community outreach strateg,t þr any project that might be considered potentially controversial (including going beyond legal notícing minimums and initiating outreach efforts as early as possible in the development cycle).

R3. Each planning department should use succinct "plain-speak" to convey issues in their outreaclt.

R4. Each school district should investigate building teacher and staff workforce housing on their land. i?5. Each utility district should adopt waivers for hook-up fees þr low-income housing projects and accessory dwelling units.

R6, Each jurisdiction should adopt procedures so that low-income housing projects are fast- tracked through the planning and permitting process.

R7. The County should create and fund the position of Regional Housing Coordinator. The Coordinator's responsibilities should include: working with funding sources and developers, identifying underutilized properties, working with jurisdictíons to create speci/ic plans, and creating a County-wide Civic mediation program for all civic proj ect community dialogues.

3 The Grand Jury Report was distributed to the County of Marin and all cities/towns in Marin County. In addition, the report was distributed to all service and utility districts, as well as all public school districts in Marin County. The Town of Corte Madera has been requested to respond to recommendations Rl, R2, R3 and R6.

OPTIONS: 1. The Town Council may approve the proposed response. 2. The Town Council may propose modifications to the proposed response. 3. The Town Council may reject the proposed response and provide further direction to staff

6 RESPONSE OF THF TOWN OF CORTE MADERA TO GRAND JURY REPORT

"OVERCOMING BARRIERS TO HOUSING AFFORDABILITY''

RECOMMENDATIONS AN D RESPONSES:

R1 Each planning department should begin regularly scheduled meetings at which developers can speak, early in the process with all relevant members of staff to drbcuss impacts of proposed development and potential solutions to problems.

Response: The Town's Planning Department regularly conducts meetings with developers of large and small projects at the very beginning of the project development phase. We agree these meetings can provide valuable information that can inform prospective applicants of potential policy issues and/or technical problems that should be seriously considered and addressed before moving forward to the application process. Where appropriate, the Planning Department coordinates these meetings with other departments, including Public Vy'orks, Fire, and Building departments.

Corte Madera also offers and encourages applicants of larger, likely controversial, or more complex projects to apply for the Town's Preliminary Review process. This process has been utilized to a significantly greater degree in recent years to provide applicants (large developers and homeowners alike) the opportunity to receive preliminary feedback from the Planning Commission and members of the public, on matters of policy, project design, andlor general development objectives. Applicants who have participated in the Preliminary Review process have almost universally acknowledged its utility and effectiveness in highlighting issues early in the process, thereby saving time and money.

R2. Each planning department should develop a proactive community outreach strategy for any project that might be considered potentially controversial (including going beyond iegal noticing minimums and initiating outreach efforts as early as possrble in the development cycle).

Response: The Town wholeheartedly agrees that community outreach, including broad noticing for potentially controversially projects, early in the development cycle is a critical component of a successful planning process. The Planning Department incorporates this objective into its practices in the following ways:

Stronely encourage contact with neighbors. neighborhoods. and the entire Town where appropriate.

For nearly every proposal discussed at the Planning Department public counter or in preliminary meetings, applicants are encouraged reach out to their neighbors. This advice is strongly asserted

7 by staff on smaller projects (like house remodels), where a neighbor could be impacted by this project and on large, likely controversial projects, where entire neighborhoods or the Town as a whole may be impacted. The Planning Department requires, as part of its Design Review Checklist, that applicants,

"Provide a copy of the notice or description of how neighbors were notified of this application. The notice shall include a brief description of the project (size, height, color, materials, etc.) and shall be sent to all adjacent neighbors, including neighbors that are across the street and any neighbors that may be further than adjacent but are likely impacted by the project. Also provide responses from neighbors, either at time of application submittal or within two weeks of submitting the DR application."

Additionally, the Planning Department advises applicants to conduct, and offers to assist in facilitating, applicant-sponsored community outreach meetings at the conceptual proposal phase of development for projects that may be potentially controversial. Such meetings have recently been held for the Town Center Renovation project, Restoration Hardware's proposed new store, Robin Drive Residential Subdivision proposal, Marin County Day and Marin Montessori School proposals, and Scandinavian Designs Mixed Use proposal.

The Town cannot mandate or force an applicant to follow-through with outreach but the encouragement is strong and generally accepted as a worthwhile investment. Applicants are told that early outreach usually helps diffuse potential issues and opposition.

Strongly encourage applicants of major. or potentially controversial projects. to apply for Preliminary Review by the Planniug Commission.

As noted above, staff strongly encourages prospective applicants to take advantage of the Preliminary Review process to obtain feedback from the Planning Commission and public on matters of policy, project design, and overall development objectives, and to save time and money in developing project applications. This process provides members of the community the opportunity to review conceptual plans, voice concerns, and comment on ways to potentially improve a project early in the development process and affords applicants the opportunity to incorporate feedback into project proposals prior to submitting project applications. An example of recent projects that have utilized and benefitted from this Preliminary Review process include Marin County Day School project, Robin Drive Residential Subdivision, 11 Madrono and 52 Summit single family homes, and Scandinavian Designs Mixed Use proposal.

Provide robust public noticing for maior proiects or those that draw significant public interest

The Planning Department utilizes an affay of public noticing resources for projects that might be considered potentially controversial that go well beyond the legal noticing requirements. Our efforts have been greatly enhanced by recent upgrades to our Town website, which now offers community members the opportunity to receive email notifications directly from the Planning and Building Department and Planning Commission regarding upcoming meetings. In addition to notifying subscribers via the Town website, meetings for potentially controversial projects or

8 those that may draw wide interest are noticed on NextDoor.com, posted on the Town's Community Center reader board, and mailed to greater radius (usually minimum of 500 ft.) than required by law. For select projects, such as the Corte Madera Inn Rebuild proposal, the Planning Department has also created project-specific email notification lists containing the emails of all those who have commented via email on the project or who have signed-in at a public meetings requesting to be notified of meetings or the release of information related to a specific project.

R3. Each planning department should use succinct "plain-speak" to convey issues in their outreach.

Response: We agree with this recommendation. The Town needs to be conscious of this issue as many times, the public notice is the recipient's initial introduction to the project. The Town's Planning Department has developed a standard public noticing template, which contains a lot of information that attempts to provide the reader with enough information to understand a project proposal, but not overly cumbersome to read. Much of the information on the notice is required by state and federal laws, which must be included in the notice. Because there are legal requirements for noticing, merely scaling back the language in the notice would make the City vulnerable to a legal challenge. A good example is the requirement to include the noticing of environmental (CEQA) review for the project. The language and jargon used for environmental review noticing can be foreign to most people. However, notices should be crafted in a way to be understandable to the layperson. Staff intends to review and revise its standard notices within the next 60 days.

R6; Each jurisdiction should adopt procedures so that low-income housing projects are fast-tracked through the planning and permitting process.

Response: The Town of Corte Madera has adopted policies and procedures which encourage the fast-tracking of affordable housing projects through the review process, most recently in its 2015 Housing Element. However, the Town rarely receives applications for new low-income housing projects. Most of our housing projects are market rate, with the required set aside of affordable housing as a percentage ofthe overall project. Fast-tracking is only effective if: a) there is a staff planner assigned and has their time exclusively devoted to the project; and b) there is limited to no controversy. The downsides of fast-tracking are: a) procedures, such as those noted above, that add time to the process, but can be helpful in ensuring the community is well-informed and has opportunity to provide input, may not be followed; b) prioritizing speed over thoroughness can make the project vulnerable to litigation; and b) there can public criticism that the review process has been compromised which can give the impression that project action has been "rubber-stamped."

Fast-tracking comes in several forms and is now being administered on new accessory (second) dwelling units (ADU). While there is mention in the Grand Jury Report about encouraging ADUs

9 and junior second units, the discussion is not in the context of permit process streamlining. Accessory dwelling units and junior second units have proven to be a good source of affordable housing. In January 2017 , the State laws mandating ADUs were significantly changed, resulting in a requirement for local jurisdictions to adopt and administer a permit process that is ministerial (non-discretionary provided that specified standards are met) and subject to processing time limits (applications must be processed and action taken within 120 days). Since January 2017, the City has been operating under the new ADU provisions set forth in the State law.

Conclusions The Grand Jury Report recommendations focus on local jurisdiction development review processes. Nearly all of the suggested recommendations are presently being implemented or administered by the Town, and have been for several years. The suggested recommendation to improve the public noticing language and format will be pursued.

While all of the suggested recommendations may foster a better process for the developer and may better educate the public, they do little to address or dissolve community resistance. The example of pursuing better up-front planning work such as developing a "specific plan" for a geographic area will not necessarily diffuse community resistance. Many residents do not get involved in the front end planning and vision process. Residents are more likely to react to an individual project when it is in their neighborhood. Lastly, recommendations such as providing more expeditious review for affordable housing projects would likely heighten community resistance. ATTACHMENT 2

Overcoming Borriers to Housing Affordobility

Report Dote: April 6, 2017 Public Releose Dote: April 12, 2017

aa. . COUNW OF MAR¡N Marin County Civil Grand Jury

Overcoming Barriers to Housing Affordability SUMMARY

Marin is an expensive place to live, not only for low-income residents but also the average wage earner. This report offers solutions to improve housing affordability for all households. The residents of Marin experience the results of the high cost of housing in many \ilays, including the fact that our roadways are congested with the cars of commuters, the financial strain that high housing costs put on low and moderate income households, problems caused by homeless living on the streets, and the likelihood that our children will have to leave the county to find someplace where they can afford a home.

The Grand Jury researched how communities (both inside and outside of Marin County) have addressed key problems of housing affordability that could be applied throughout Marin:

r Community resistance forms a barier to virtually any new development in Mann. Vocal opposition serves to constrain the actions of civic leadership. Attempts to satis$ the needs of the developer and the needs of the community simultaneously are often ineffective. We highlight several examples where proactive involvement of the community with planners and developers has been successful in creating projects that are win-wins. We suggest that efforts to create early discussions between these parties will help to overcome this ba:rier.

r It is expensive to build in Marin. The high cost of land and construction form a formidable barrier to affordability, particularly in the case of low-income affordable housing. No one solution will completely overcome this barrier, but a creative approach to address some construction fees will make Marin more attractive for development.

r Developers cite the planning process in Marin as a clear barrier to progress. Regulatory delay becomes burdensome when developing low-income affordable housing. We suggest that models exist where successful early cooperation between developers, and planners, and neighborhoods has made the planning process more efficient. These models could easily be adopted across Marin's communities.

r While housing affordability is a countywide problem, each of the L1 towns and cities of Marin and the County have their own approach to the problem. Municipalities should coordinate available resor¡rces to develop low-income affordable housing that would benefit all of the citizens of Marin. This effort would be best coordinated through a central Housing Coordinator.

A problem as complicated as housing affordability is not easily solved and it will not be solved overnight. However, or¡r research suggests that it should be possible to make incremental changes that will overcome some of the barriers to affordability. These changes form the recommendations made in this report. Overcorning Barciers to Housing Affordability BACKGROUND

Scarcely a week goes by without housing prices being featured in local news. According to the California Association of Realtors, only 20Yo of households in Marin County could purchase a median-priced home in the fourth quarter of 2016. The chart below indicates that Marin is one of the least affordable counties even in the extremely expensive Bay Area.

In this report, housing affordability refers to the measure of whether a typical household can afford to purchase or rent a typical home. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) guidelines suggest that housing is affordable if it requires less than 30Yo of household income. The latest HUD estimate for median household income in Marin County is 9107,720.1

This is a distinctly different concept from affordable housing. Affordable housing is subsidized by the government and available for occupancy by households that meet income thresholds specified by HUD, which defines "low income" as earning less than 50Yo of median household income.

Why is affordability a problem? Housing is too expensive for middle-income and lower-income households that include many of our public employees, retail employees and maintenance workers.z Spending too much of a household's monthly budget on housing impacts a family's ability to buy other basic needs: food, clothing, transportation, insurance, utilities, etc. The U.S. Census Bureau's Center for Economic Studies3 reports that as of 20l4,over 61,000 workers commuted into Marin each day, adding to the traffic problems that we see on our roads. The high cost of housing also increases the number of homeless on our streets, creates difficulties for senior citizens on fixed incomes keeping up with increasing rents, and challenges the most

vulnerable segments of our population. Housing is unavailable as well for ow next generation, resulting in an increasingly older population.

There are many benefïts of creating a more affordable housing infrastructure. Environmental benefits will accrue if commutes can be shortened. Social benefits from increased diversity in our population will enrich our lives. Economic benefits will include an increased property tax base from new housing, as well as an increase in sales taxes if workers live here and shop here, rather than taking their dollars elsewhere.

The Grand Jury wrote this report in an effort to document the genesis of the Marin housing problem, understand the barriers, and offer some solutions that have worked elsewhere. We are under no illusion that there are quick or simple fixes. A problem that has taken decades to develop will not disappear overnight. However, we do suggest that it is time to address this problem in new ways.

METHODOLOGY

The Grand Jury recognizedthat the investigation of the barriers to housing affordability would require a broad approach. Accordingly, the Grand Jury pursued the following:

r Conducted research into the physical and economic demographics of Marin County, including: population and economic/financial data, land use policies/constraints, housing supply/demand./cost characteristics and transportation infrastructure.

r Interviewed County department managers and staff associated with planning and approval of housing projects in Marin.

r Distributed a questionnaire to planning staff of the County and the 11 cities and towns of Marin seeking information regarding their low-income affordable housing policies, processes and fees.

r Reviewed Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports (CAFRs) of the County, cities and towns with a focus on expenditures for low-income affordable housing development.

r Interviewed people in various capacities who are involved in developing market rate and low-income affordable housing within and outside the County.

Conducted research into Federal, Califomia, County and municipal laws and regulations applicable to real estate development and low-income affordable housing (including housing elements and Plan Bay Areaa).

r Researched issues and interviewed people from advocacy groups in support of developing low-income affordable housing throughout the county.

r Issued questionnaires to advocacy groups in opposition to the development of high- density housing and low-income affordable housing.

r Researched published papers and books by the advocacy groups cited above.

¡ Conducted research into conflict resolution strategies, programs and best practices.

r Researched successful approaches to reconciling the positions of housing developers and opponents of developments.

r Reviewed the history of recent low-income affordable housing projects with attention to the processes, costs, development time frames and community acceptance.

r Obtained local utility district connection fee estimates.

DISCUSSION

California's Legislative Anaþst Office 2015 report California's High Housing Costs: Causes and Consequ"nc"st lists significant factors why coastal areas (ike Marin) have not built enough housing, including community resistance to such new housing, environmental reviews that can be used to stop or limit housing development, and limited vacant developable land. The goal of this Marin County Civil Grand Jury report is to showcase proven solutions to affordability barriers. These solutions could be implemented separately. However, since many of the barriers are interconnected we believe that by integrating them together into civic practices, our citizens will see long-term improvements in housing affordability.

In this report, the Grand Jury focused on these specific barriers: r Community Resistance r Too Expensive to Build ¡ Planning Process r Low-Income Affordable Housing Faces Unique Challenges r Myths & Perceptions

April6,2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 4 of3l Overcoming Barriers to Housing Affordability Barrier: Community Resistance

If you show up at a planning hearing to complain about a proposed project in your neighborhood, your single voice is unlikely to matter. Therefore, you decide to form a coalition with your neighbors. The coalition would hold meetings, write letters, make phone calls, post signs, and demand the local officials do something. This is democracy in action.

What if a proposed project is upsetting: a high-density housing project (that will addto traffic), a homeless shelter (that will bring in undesirable people), a flood detention basin (that might cause local flooding), or a low-income housing development (that will decrease property values)? The coalition might agree that the project is for the "g[eater good," but is not appropriate for the neighborhood. To protect yourselves from the "big guys," you might hire the services of a lawyer to find a way to stop or slow down this project ("level the playing field"). In Marin County, these reactions are coÍrmon for civic projects.Õ

Solution: Regular Developer Meetings. Before developers formally file plans for housing developments, they should meet with the local planning staff to anticipate likely challenges. Planning departments advise developers on regulatory issues, but often what frustrates planning approval are "the neighbors." Planners can advise the developer on "hot button" issues they are likely to face before they set the formal public planning process in motion.

Example: Since 2012, the City of Petaluma has conducted weekly Development Review Committee meetings to brainstorm with developers. In attendance are a number of city departments including fire, building, planning, public works, water resources and conservation, code enforcement, economic development, and housing. City staff advise developers of what potential issues could be conhoversial and suggest ways to adjust the project scope to minimize issues. These might include proactive meetings with neighborhoods or increasing the scope of formal planning notices. Developers appreciate this streamlined approach that saves both time and money. The City staff benefit from an improved collaborative environment.

Solution: Community Outreach. The issue of where to place a civic project has been well studied for over 40 years and is referred to as "Facility Siting" (see Appendix A: Facility Siting). Nimbyism ("Not In My Bacþard") is the understandable reaction of a community to a poor public planning process and lack of trust in government. By proactively reaching out to the entire community, using "plain speak," and with no hidden agenda, facilitators can help all the parties talk out the issues at outreach meetings with the goal that people will a:rive at an agreeable understanding.

Example: 1n2007, Homeward Bound of Marin was getting ready to design The Next Key Center (32 affordable studio apartments and room to grow their culinary program) on a parcel of the decommissioned Hamilton base in Novato. Before they started the formal planning process, they did a major outreach effort to their sunounding neighbors. Rather than holding large meetings, they chose to meet one-on-one with the neighbors. They shared their plans ("We're thinking of..."), asked the neighbors about their concerns ("What do you think?"), and tried to address these concerns in their plan. Their goal was to enswe that everyone had a chance to be heard so that their public planning hearings would be well supported. Their new facility opened in November 2008.

Example: In 2003, the Citizens Advisory Committee released to Mill Valley City Council the Miller Avenue Precise Plan,' which detailed the "year-long process to examine the future of Miller Avenue in terms of land use and street character, traffic and circulation, market and economics, and implementation and sustainabiliqr."s In May 2007, City Planners conducted two community workshops to get feedback on possible improvements. Soon after, a nine-person steering committee founded the Friends of Mill Valley as a reaction when "...the commiffee's outline became, in effect, a draft plan because of a need to get the plan moving ahead."e City Council was "baffled by the growing opposition."ro Friends of Mill Vatley held a series of town meetings to discuss long-term policy changes (affecting land use and residential properties) that were proceeding without sufficient public input. After four years of planning, the project was now at a standstill. In response to community pressure, a Design Advisory Committee (with liaisons from City Council, Planning Commission, and five citizen experts) was formed by the City of Mill Valley in 2009, and during the next two years resulted in numerous workshops, focus groups, and extensive committee meetings. In 2011, the Miller Avenue Streetscape Plan was adopted by City Councilrr and groundbreaking on the project began on June 13,2016.12

Solution: Specific Plans. In Marin County it is not r¡ncommon to have a developer purchase a parcel, create a development plan, file the plan with the planning department, and because of community resistance, have their project slowed down, scaled back, or simply die. Such delays and uncertainty are expensive for the developers. The result is that developers choose to build in less "risky" counties. Municipalities are then planned piecemeal, on an individual parcel basis. If a community adopted a Specific Plan,many of these problems would disappear. A Specific Plan is a comprehensive planning and zoning document for a defîned geographic region.r3 The upfront work of creating the plan allows citizens to work together to define a specific community vision and have the municipality establish the detailed land use and design regulations. Developers wishing to build on a parcel in the Specific Plan would be able to move forward secure in the knowledge that extensive work to create building plans and construction documents would not be wasted.

Example: In 2011, Redwood City adopted the Downtown Precise Plan,la designed to rejuvenate the city's downtown area. It provided a blueprint for development of the city's downtown through 2030, and as amended includes: plans for retail uses, building placement (including building heights and sizes), and housing development (including low-income affordable housing). To date over 2,336 new housing units have been approved or constructed (213 of which are affordable).ls

The most frequent criticism of new projects in Marin is additional traffic congestion. With traffrc on major roads at or nearly-at capacity during commute hours, even having a few additional cars on the road could make a bad situation intolerable. Traffic is a real problem, and in many locations congestion serves as an insurmountable barrier to new construction. While the subject

of transportation infrastructure is sufficiently complex to warrant its own Grand Jury report, we believe that careful study of traffic, and a creative approach to local conditions can serve as a starting point towards mitigating the effects of new construction.

Solution: Reduce School-Related Commute Hours Traffic. School-related traffic is a significant component of commute traffic. Displacing cars with school buses will reduce traffic congestion during school ffansit hours.

Example: Coordinated Countywide Student Transportation Study. To address congestion caused by parents ferrying their children to and from schools the Marin Transportation Authority and the Marin County Office of Education cooperated in a study of widespread adoption of school busing in the county in 2015.16 The study concluded that while the geographic features of Marin make large scale busing difficult in some residential areas, the majority of county schools would benefit from extended bus service.

While the funding of a comprehensive school bus program is significant, costs are substantially less than those required by increasing road capacity. The recent adoption of a subsidized school bus program in Tiburon is an excellent example of the benefits. An article in the Marin Independent JournallT noted a 40Yoreduction in commute-hour traffic after the implementation of a voluntary bus program by the Reed Union School District.

Solution: Concentrate on Local Traffic Congestion Issues. Not all congestion issues are a result of California Highway 101 commute traffic. Investigating local road congestion could also have significant benefits. Changing local traffic flow is less expensive than costly new road construction.

Example: Mill Valley Traffic and Congestion Reduction Advisory Task tr'orce.In 2015, the City of Mill Valley studied traffic capacityls with a goal of restoring hansit times in the city's two main arteries - Blithedale Avenue and the Almonte Boulevard/Shoreline Highway - to that of 2012-2013.

The study noted a number of projects that contributed to reductions in traffic, including a pilot school bus program (as noted above), staggering of school hours, and retiming of traffic lights at critical intersections. Mill Valley, County and state agencies met, shared traffic data, and quickly resolved jurisdictional issues.

Aprít6,2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 7 of31 Overcoming Barriers to Housing Affordability Barrier: Too Expensive to Build

Long heralded for its strong environmental stewardship, Marin County has designated 80% of its land for either open space or agricultural use.le Because residents did not want to compromise Marin's natural beauty and small-town character, municipalities have enacted low-density zoning laws. The limited amount of suitable vacant land for housing has caused parcel prices to dramatically increase. Zoningregulations hamper developers, who would normally build more units on such expensive land to maximize their return on investment. While these constraints are particularly severe in the case of developers wishing to build housing that is affordable to low- and moderate-income families, they are significant for any housing construction.

Solution: Stimulate Public-Private Partnerships. In 1945, the California Legislature gave local governments the power to form a redevelopment agency (RDA) to revitalize a deteriorated area. While most of this initial funding came from the Federal govemment, it allowed local governments to issue bonds and attract private investment. ln 1952, Proposition 18 established a new financing structure, which allowed local governments to redistribute property tax revenue for the project area. However, it was not until legislation was passed in the late 1970s (Senate Bill 90 and Proposition 13) that RDAs became widespread because of loosened definitions of "deteriorated" and increased funding choices; this in turn caused public-sponsored construction to grow dramatically (which required that 15 percent of all new housing in an RDA be affordable to low- and moderate-income residents). RDAs grew so much in number (and size) that by 2008, they received 12 percent of state property tax revenue, and were putting other government programs in jeopardy.'o By 2012,the RDAs were dissolved, and the successor agencies (usually local governments) were assigned the responsibility of paying off the RDAs' debt. During their existence, RDAs built over 100,000 units of housing.2l

The Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) currently gives local govemments the ability to issue tax credits to private investors for "the acquisition, rehabilitation, or new construction of rental housing targeted to lower-income households."22 Since 1995, over 107,000 units of low- income housing were created.

Example: In 2011, the Dublin (California) Housing Authority, Housing Authority of the County of Alameda (HACA), affordable housing developer Eden Housing, and for-profit homebuilder KB Home were able to revitalize 150 units of old public housing and convert them into a vibrant, mixed-use, mixed-income community (130 affordable family rentals, 50 affordable seniors' rentals, 184 market-rate homes , and 14 below-market-rate homes). The Urban Land Institute awarded this project the 2014 winner of the 'oJack Kemp Excellence in Affordable & Workforce Housing Awards."23

Example: In20l3, ROEM Development Corporation, the City of Mountain View, Google, and Citi Community Capital built Franklin Street Family Apartments with 51 units for households earning up to 50% of the area's median income.2a

Solution: Junior Accessory Dwelting Units. Effective January 2017,Assembly Bllll22992s and Senate Bill 106926 amended state law to make it easier for homeowners to create legal accessory dwelling unit (ADU) rentals on their property: reducing minimum lot sizes, reducing utility connection fees, and reducing parking requirements. Furthermore, Assembly Bill 240627 established a new type of second unit called a "junior accessory dwelling unit" - created by adding an "efficiency kitchen" (no gas or 220 volt appliance) to an existing underutilized bedroom (maximum 500 square feet).

Example: lnã0l4,Novato City Council adopted Ordinance 1595 amending its zoning code to allow for junior accessory dwelling units (JADUs) and reduced their development fee. Based on Novato's request, local sanitary and water districts eliminated their connection fees for JADUs, and the Novato Fire Marshall waived sprinkler and fire separation requirements. The result saves homeowners wishing to create a JADU over $40,000 in fees.28 ln20l6,Novato received applications for and approved two junior accessory dwelling units. In 2017, the Marin Community Foundation awarded Lilypad a $200,000 grant to help homeowners turn spare bedrooms or other spaces into accessory dwelling units.2e

Solution: School Districts' Teacher Housing. California Senator Mark Leno authored the Teacher Housing Act of 2016 (Senate Bill 1413) that was signed into law by Governor Brown on September 27,2016. This bill provides that"a school district may establish and implement programs that address the housing needs of teachers and school district employees who face challenges in securing affordable housing. To the extent feasible, the school district may establish and implement programs that, among other things, do the following: (a) Leverage federal, state, and local public, private, and nonprofit programs and fiscal resources available to housing developers, (b) Promote public and private partnerships, (c) Foster innovative financing opportunities."'u Before this bill was passed, taxpayer funds could not be used for restricted (school staff only) housing.

The nonprofit and nonpartisan Learning Policy Institute's report Solving the Teacher Shortagesl agreed that "lack ofaffordable housing is one reason teachers leave the profession or leave districts with high costs of living." Because of teacher hrnover, school districts have to continually invest in recruitment, since new teachers cannot afford to live in Marin County. Providing subsidized housing for teachers will give school district administration another tool to atlr act top -quality staff.

Example: 1n2002, the Santa Clara Unified School District built Casa Del Maestro ("House of the Teacher") on land it owned (and is now operated and managed by the nonprofit Santa Clara Teacher Housing Foundation) using no taxpayer funds. With a typical monthly rent of $1,500 for a two bedroom unit in the complex (compared to an average market rent of $3,1 3432¡, the school district has seen teacher tumover drop to below average.33

Example: Beginning in 2005, the San Mateo Community College District created two housing developments for faculty and staff. "The District is able to build first class, market rate housing and offer below-market rents because 1) it owns the land (land costs do not need to be included in the cost of ownership or operations); 2) it financed the project with a tax-exempt issue; 3) the property is property-tax exempt; and 4) the District does not have a profit motive. Rents from the project are set at a level that is sufflrcient to pay back all costs of construction, financing, maintenance and operations and fund a long-term capital reserve."34

Solution: Identify Underutilized Parcels. "Marin County has an abundance of many things: hiking trails, water views and great farm-to-table food. But try buying avacant lot here and 'We you'll discover what we lack most. Simply put: have no lots."35 California State Law "mandates that local governments adequately plan to meet the existing and projected housing needs of all economic segments of the community."36 This plan is referred to as a Housing Element. Contained in the housing element is a land inventory that includes both vacant and underutilized parcels that may be considered development opportunities. Before a housing element is finalized, the public is invited to comment.3T In Marin, because of fears of showcasing growth opportunities, citizens often request that many vacant and underutilized parcels be removed from the Housing Element's land inventory.

Rather than depend upon a highly politicized process, it would be more transparent for the County to prepare a publicly available and easily obtainable map of all incorporated and unincorporated vacant and underutilized parcels in Marin.

Example: As part of the development of the 2012-2035 Portland Plan, the City of Portland, Oregon's Bureau of Planning & Sustainability released,the Development Capacity Analysis geographic information systems (GIS) model.38 The model was used to create the Buildable Lands Inventory (BLI),3e which was used to provide data to address their "big" questions.ao As a result, "permitting continues to exceed production levels, offering an indicator that the city may continue to see growth in the number of new housing units added to the city stock in2016 and2017.'Al

April 6,2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 10 of 3 I Overcoming Batiers to Housing Affordability

Barrier: Planning Process

The planning process in Marin cities and towns is unpredictable and time-consuming. A developer faces different regulations in every municipality. In addition, developers in every city, town, and the unincorporated County face the costs of compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) that may require extensive environmental reviews as well as time consuming public comment. As stated in a report issued by the McKinsey Global Institute entitled A Tool Kit to Close Caliþrnia's Housing Gap,o'"the statute has come under scrutiny for enabling any opponent to a project ... to delay or block the project by threatening a lawsuit under CEQA. Generally speaking, if a project opponent files a CEQA lawsuit, the project cannot commence until the litigation is resolved in favor of the govemment and the project sponsor. This can delay projects by months or years, and adds substantial risk to the entitlement process."

Approvals for new housing can take anywhere from six months to over three years depending upon the complexity of the project and public opposition. Long delays in the approval process can lead to lost opportunities and high costs for land holding, architectural planning, and legal expenses. McKinsey's report estimates that such costs can account for 30%o of the total cost of a housing unit.

Solution: Regular Developer Meetings. As mentioned previously in "Barrier: Community Resistance," a:ranging regularly scheduled meetings with developers, city or county planning officials, advocacy groups and the general public would better allow all interested parties to offer their input during each stage of the process.

Solution: Improved Noticing. Planning departments comply with legal noticing requirements for development projects. However, these notices are often filled with confusing legal terms that the average resident might not understand and instead choose to ignore. Later, when the project has moved to an advanced stage, a resident might hear rumors about the project and become angry that they were not adequately informed. Usingplain speak and increasing noticing to a wider radius (than the minimum requirements) would lead to a more informed community much earlier in the process and fewer delays by opposition later.

Example: A few examples of municipal planning notices are showcased in Appendix B: Municipal Planning Notices. The Tiburon and Marin County notices are printed with small single-spaced type and filled with legal jargon. From Tiburon's: "The Planning Division is recommending a Mitigated Negative Declaration be adopted for the project pursuant to section 21080 of..." If a resident makes it through the first three paragraphs of the letter without his eyes glazingover, he might discover that written comments on the Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration/Initial Study will be accepted until 5:30pm. This type of language makes little sense to ordinary residents outside of planning commission circles. A better example might be the card circulated by Mill Valley that has the meeting date, location, and project contact in bold typeface at the top of the card, followed by a brief description of the project. It concludes with instructions for interested parties on submitting comments, relevant meeting dates and sources for further information. All relevant details are presented in very clear, precise and simple language.

Solution: Community Outreach. As previously discussed, developers should reach out to neighbors and other interested parties from the very beginning of the planning process, address concerns and incorporate suggestions whenever possible. By involving the public from the

a2 "A Tool Kit To Close Califomia's Housins Gap: 3.5 Million Homes By 2025 ]' McKinsey Global Institute.

April6,2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 1l of31 Overcoming Barriers to Housing Alfordability outset, many objections can be resolved in open dialogue. Meetings should be held as often as necessary until everyone's opinions have been heard. It is difficult to find examples of good community outreach for Marin projects. The same public concerns, however, exist in other Bay Area locations. In Napa, objections are often seen to the construction of new wineries. An example of how to reach out to the community in a positive way is seen in the following:

Example: Constructing a new winery in Napa County evokes strong neighborhood reactions. "Questions from neighboring residents, growers and vintners about impacts on groundwater, traffic and rural character in the form of opposing public-hearing cõmments and letters as well as appeals of approvals have led the county Board of Supervisors over the past several months to call for better analysis of current conditions and community input.'*3 In20l6,Beau Vigne Winery did an extensive outreach before its hearing, resulting in "a show of support that the Planning Commission seldom sees in often- contentious winery times.'/a

April6,20l7 MarinCountyCivilGrandJury Page l2of 3l Overcoming Barriers to Housing Alfordability Barrier: Low-Income Affordable Housing Faces l.Inique Challenges

The current approach to planning low-cost affordable housing in Marin County is fragmented and lacks coordination. Each municipality has its own community development agency (CDA) that is focused on specific goals and priorities identified within its own boundaries. In addition, Marin County has a CDA that serves only the unincorporated areas of Marin. No single agency is tasked with the coordination and facilitation of solutions to housing-related issues that affect the entire region. For example, affordable housing that addresses the needs of the most vulnerable portion of Marin's population is administered by a combination of the Marin Housing Authority, Marin County Health and Human Services and a wide range of non-profit operators in locations scattered among the County, cities and towns. Section 8 housing vouchers provide federal funding to supplement housing costs for low-income families. The long waiting list for these vouchers is a clear indicator of unmet demand for additional subsidized affordable housing. Individually, each of the municipalities and the County has its own plan to address low-income affordable housing, but these plans have been ineffective at solving the problem.

Economic bariers add to the difficuþ of constructing new housing and protecting existing low- income housing stock. The cost of buildable property is a major consideration, but in addition, developers face high costs for permits, energy and water hookups, and legal expenses. Complex requirements for environmental review and transportation infrastructure limitations are also complicating factors. Developers are economically motivated to look to areas with fewer restrictions and less uncertainty than in Marin County.

Solution: In-Lieu Housing Fee Pooling. Many communities require that developers of multi- unit housing set aside a percentage of units as affordable housing. Of the 12 jurisdictions in Marin (11 incorporated municipalities plus the unincorporated county) 7 allow the payment of housing fees in-lieu of building affordable housing units. These funds are then deposited in an account to be spent to increase the supply of housing (generally to be affordable to low and moderate-income residents). Outside of the City of Novato very liule of this money has been expended for affordable housing, and for most of the jurisdictions, the account balances are too low to be useful (for a fund overview, see Appendix C: Affordable Housing In-Lieu Fees). Pooling these funds, with central administration at the County level, would best leverage the power of this money to stimulate the construction of affordable housing.

Solution: In-Lieu Housing Fee Recalculation. "The Board of Supervisors concur that the in- lieufees fail to generøte sfficient revenue to support the amount of affordable housing needed in Marin County.'4s The City of San Rafael reported, "our experience shows that acceptingfees in lieu of providing units in developments under construction does not result in an increase in the number à¡a¡oraatle units.'A6If the goal of in-lieu housing fees is to stabilize and increase the amount of low-income affordable housing in the County, then there are insufficient in-lieu fund account balances to achieve this. Therefore, either local govemments need to either not allow the payment of inJieu housing fees (so low-income affordable housing is created) or in-lieu fees need to reflect the true cost of developing such housing.

Example: ln2016, the City of Pasadena commissioned the Affordable Housing In Lieu Fee Analysls studyaT in support of an inclusionary housing ordinance.as By ana\yzing the

rental housing affordability gap and predicting likely numbers of new construction, they were able to calculate a truer value for an in-lieu housing fee.

Solution: Fast-track Low-income Affordable Housing Applications. Low-income affordable housing developers face many obstacles that add costs to their projects. Giving priority to the processing of their applications through the various planning departments would be an easy way to shorten the timeline to construction and thus reduce cost. Several of Marin's communities have procedures in place for fast-tracking. The County of Marin proposes to implement fast- tracking for unincorporated areas in 2017. Tiburon gives "highest processing priority" to affordable housing projects, and San Rafael reports that it has some policies in place "that encourage streamlined approaches of projects that qualiff as affordable housing." San Anselmo offers expedited processing for secondary units but not multifamily construction. Other Marin towns and cities do not have such provisions in place. Each of the towns and cities of Marin should implement fast-tracking of affordable housing projects, bringing these projects to the top of the planning review queue.

Example: Below-market-rate projects are fast-tracked through the City of Petaluma's approval process. All processing time limits required by state law are adhered to.4e

Solution: Community Outreach. Often community fears of the local impact of low-income affordable housing turn into vocal demonstrations. Contributing to these fears are perceptions of the impact of affordable housing on neighborhoods, for example the belief that affordable housing developments will drive down property values and attract undesirable residents. As noted in our section on planning process above, an aggressive program of involvement of nearby stakeholders should alleviate unsupported fears, and will allow developers and homeowners to work together to ensure that development works to benefit the community.

Example: Oma Village. Homeward Bound of Marin has recently opened Oma Village, a development of 14 units in Novato intended for residence by families that are leaving homelessness. Before entering into the planning review process, Homeward Bound contacted nearby residents individually to explain what they hoped to do. By carefully explaining the criteria for approval of applicants, and by making some changes to their architectural drawings to meet neighborhood concerns, they were able to smoothly move through planning review and begin construction of the Village.

Solution: Reduce Costs Of Utility Connections. Sewer, water, electricity, and gas connections add significantly to the cost of any new development (see Appendix D: Utility Connection Fee Estimates). Developers of market-rate housing are able to recoup these fees upon successful completion of a profitable project. These fees burden developers that follow a mission to provide low-cost affordable housing. Waiving or reducing connection fees would provide a major incentive to the developers of low-cost affordable housing.

Example: The City of Santa Cruz's (California) municipal code allows for waivers of many development fees if they will assist in providing residential units that are affordable to low and veryJow income households.sO The fees eligible for waivers include: sewer and water connection fees, planning application and plan-check fees, building permit and plan-check fees, park land and open space dedication inJieu fees, and fire fees.

Too often we holdfast to the clichés of ourforebears. lVe subject allføcts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comþrt of opinionwithout the discomfort of thought." -John F.

Perhaps the most challenging barrier to tackle is that of altering long held misperceptions of a community. These beliefs are deeply entrenched and in many cases are based on myths. \ile collected a sampling of oft-repeated refrains from community meetings and the media and analyzed them for accuracy. We researched these issues to see if they had any merit (see Appendix E: Marin Housing Perceptions).

Solution: Education. Myths that continue to circulate in the community eventually become embedded in the belief system when they are continually repeated as if they were facts. Psychologists understand that to overcome misinformation, three psychological effects need to be considered: familiarity effect (emphasize the facts, not the myth), overkill backfire effect (simpliff the message), and the worldview backfire effect (don't argue, reframe the message).sl Leadership must take a stance in public support of facts, using properly considered psychology, rather than reacting solely to community-wide fears.

YIMBYs a^re "generally younger than their opponents, mainly renters, many of them employed in the tech industry, they were driven to activism after they found themselves unable even to rent in San Francisco or Berkeley or Oakland, let alone bry."t'

Solution: Deliberative Polling@ was created in 1988 by Professor James Fishkin of Stanford University. "Citizens are often uninformed about key public issues. Conventional polls represent the public's surface impressions of sound bites and headlines. The public, subject to what social scientists have called "rational ignorance," has little reason to confront tradeofß or invest time and effort in acquiring information or coming to a considered judgment."s3 The Deliberative Polling@ process involves bringing together a sample of an affected population, sharing balanced briefing materials, and then having a dialogue with competing experts and political leaders.

Housing affordability has been a "hot topic" in Marin County for years. Former Supervisor Susan Adams "faced an unsuccessful recall effort in part due to her support for developing affordable housing at Marinwood"s4 and was voted out of offic e in20l4. From October 2015 to February 2016, the Board of Supervisors convened a series of Preserving Housìng Affordability public workshops.55 The Ma¡in IJ wrote: "All but conceding that the drive to provide adequate affordable housing in Marin has been a failure, county officials are shifting gears, hoping that an aggressive strategy aimed at saving the housing that does exist while considering initiatives to slow soaring rents will bear fruit."56 As former Supervisor Steve Kinsey stated, "'We're becoming a rich, white, old community, and yet California is becoming a much more

April6,2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page l6 of3l Overcoming Barriers to Housing Alfordability Introducing: The Regional Housing Coordinator

The Grand Jury believes that a number of the previous solutions (community outreach, inJieu housing fee pooling, in-lieu fees to stimulation public-private partnerships, education, and case studies) could best be served through the creation of a County Regional Housing Coordinator. The coordinator would:

r Commission a study to quantiff the demand for new housing units. r Work with funding sources and developers ¡ Work with cities, towns and the County to develop Specific Plans r Identifu underutilized parcels r Explore opportunities for public-private parhrerships r Create a County-wide Civic mediation program for all civic project community dialogues r Conduct Deliberative Polling@ to build the public voice on housing choices r Coordinate andanalyze in-lieu housing fee usage

While each municipality would maintain local planning control, the Regional Housing Coordinator would ensure that County-wide issues such as subsidized housing, civic development, and funding would be a shared resource. Regional housing coordinators are found in other states, including:

r Nevada (Southern Nevada Regional Housing Authority) r North Carolina (The Arc of North Carolina) r Pennsylvania (Self-Determination Housing Project of Pennsylvania, Inc.)

Ironically, the June 2003 Marin County Grand Jury report (Fínancing Affordable Housing: Local In-Lieu Fees And Set-Aside Funds) recommendations included:

r The Boa¡d of Supervisors and the cities and towns should establish an appropriate mechanism for the coordination of all affordable housing activities in the County. r The Board of Supervisors should support and cooperate with the various nonprofit housing agencies and developers within the County by including them in the implementation of the countywide housing progmms.

In their September 16,2003 response to the June 2003 Report, the Marin County Board of Supervisors wrote:

'oMarin County, the Marin Community Foundation and the Major Employers of Marin are working collaboratively to develop a countywide housing trust fund. Each entity will be contributing cash and in-kind services to match funds established by the state for housing trusts. The goal is to generate six million dollars over the next five years to be used for affordable housing. All the cities and towns will be invited to participate in the Marin Workforce Housing Trust Fund. Their contribution will be matched dollar for dollar, which is a substantial incentive.

The Community Development Agency will begin to engage the Countywide Planning Agency that represents all the cities, towns and the County, to develop an effective strategic approach to address the housing needs of Marin County."

Aprit6,2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page l7 of3l Overcoming Barriers to Housing Affordability

The Marin Wor$orce Housing I'rzsl (MWHT) was established in 2003 as a "public-private collaboration between various local businesses, the Marin Community Foundation and the County of Marin to support and encourage the development of affordable workforce housing throughout Marin County."5e Over the years, the MWHT issued a pre-development loan of $283,210 to Eden Housing (for the construction of Warner Creek Senior Housing in Novato) and $231,593 to EAH Housing (for the construction of Shelter Hill in Mill Valley). Because of difficulties finding other loan recipients, in 2010 the business community pulled out. By 20t4, the Marin Community Foundation also stopped participating. In 2016, the Marin Workforce Housing Trust decided to cease operations ("The purpose of the Trust was to use funds raised for loans to support workforce housing. While this is a worthy and important endeavor, there is not enough affordable housing development in Marin County for a standalone organization to be feasible"60), and transfer its funds into Marin County's Affordable Housing Trust Fund.

While the Grand Jury applauds the establishment of the Marin Workforce Housing Trust, it is clear that simply offering affordable housing funds to low-income affordable housing developers will not improve the situation. During our investigation, we heard repeatedly from both nonprofits and funding sources that the challenge to building low-income and middle-income affordable housing isn't identi$ing funding sources, it is overcoming local political and community resistance.

That is why we suggest that the role of the regional housing coordinator must be financial (work with funding sources and coordinate in-lieu housing fee usage), research (identify underutilized parcels), and political (civic mediation and public polling). Unlike the June 2003 Report recommendations, the housing coordinator would not only focus on low-income affordable housing, but housing that is affordable for people who currentþ live and work in Marin.

April6,2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page l8 of31 Overcoming Barriers to Housing Affordability CONCLUSION

The Marin County Civil Grand Jury believes, based on success in the Bay Area and nationwide, that many of the ba:riers that challenge housing affordability can be overcome using solutions detailed in our Discussion:

r Community Outreach r Concentrate on Local Traffic Congestion Issues r DeliberativePolling@ r Education r Fast-track Low-income Affordable Housing Applications r Identiff Underutilized Parcels r Improved Noticing r In-Lieu Housing Fee Recalculation r In-Lieu Housing Fees Pooling r Junior Accessory Dwelling Units r Reduce Commute Hours Traffic r Reduce Costs Of Utility Connections r Regular Developer Meetings r School Districts' Teacher Housing r Specific Plans r StimulateFublic-PrivatePartnerships

The Grand Jury is under no illusion that implementing these solutions will magically transform our housing affordability situation overnight. Some of these solutions may not work well in Marin. Some of these solutions require a combination of new policies and new skills. Nevertheless, we suggest that it is time to establish agreed-upon baseline metrics for housing affordability, perform tests of these solutions, re-measure these efforts against the baseline, and fine-tune the solutions to optimize results.

Implementing these solutions require public agencies and officials to change "business as usual." Approaching tough issues (such as housing) with the question "'What do we want our County to become?" (rather than "What don't we want?"), we believe our leaders will be able to guide our citizens more comprehensively and efficiently.

April6,2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 19 of3l Overcoming B arriers to Hous ing Af.fordability FINDINGS

Fl. Political will for the construction of new housing is conshained by County-wide vocal citizen opposition.

F2. The costs of land and development make it too expensive to build low-income affordable housing in Marin.

F3. Developers routinely respond that they do not try to build housing in Marin because of the difficulties imposed by the local regulatory requirements and citizen complaints.

F4. Responsibility for housing in Marin is fragmented with little overall coordination among different agencies in the County as well as the Cities and Towns.

F5. Active planning for the creation of low-income affordable housing does not occur within our cities, towns, and the County.

F6. Over 60,000 people commute each day to jobs in Marin, many living outside the County.

F7. Proposals to build low-income affordable housing create immediate neighbor opposition. Efforts to mediate with neighborhood groups are often too late in the process and have been ineffective. RECOMMENDATIONS

Rl. Each planning department should begin regularly scheduled meetings at which developers can speak, early in the process, with all relevant members of staff to discuss impacts of proposed development and potential solutions to problems.

R2 Each planning department should develop a proactive community outreach strategy for any project that might be considered potentially controversial (including going beyond legal noticing minimums and initiating outreach efforts as early as possible in the development cycle).

R3. Each planning department should use succinct "plain-speak" to convey issues in their outreach.

R4. Each school district should investigate building teacher and staff workforce housing on their land.

R5. Each utilþ district should adopt waivers for hook-up fees for low-income housing projects and accessory dwelling units.

R6. Each jurisdiction should adopt procedures so that low-income housing projects are fast- tracked through the planning and permitting process.

R7. The County should create and fund the position of Regional Housing Coordinator. The Coordinator's responsibilities should include: working with funding sources and developers, identifring underutilized properties, working with jurisdictions to create specific plans, and creating a County-wide Civic mediation program for all civic project community dialogues.

April6,2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page 23 of31 Overcotning Barriers to Housins AffordabiliW APPENDIX A: Facitity Siting

The issue of where to place a civic project has been well-studied for over 40 years and referred to as "Facility Siting." The process for siting a project can be: regulatory, market, or voluntary.6l A regulatory process imposes a project on a coÍrmunity through legal actions (such as eminent domain). With a market process, incentives to the community are offered as conditions of project approval. A.voluntary process involves significant community dialogue, collaboration, and negotiation.

The MIT Harvard Public Disputes Program has found that the voluntary process of "mediation, when used properþ, produces fairer outcomes, more efficient results, and more st¿ble political commitments, as well as wiser use of the best scientific and technical information available."62 The well-tested, Facility Siting Credo63 details the various objectives that should be considered in a voluntary processl

r Institute a broad participatory process r Achieve agreement that the status quo unacceptable r Seek consensus r Work to develop trust r Choose the solution that best addresses the problem r Guarantee that stringent safety measures will be met r Fully address all negative aspects of the facility r Make the host community better off r Use contingent agreements r Seek acceptable sites through avolunteerprocess r Consider a competitive siting process r Work for geographic fairness r Set realistic timetables r Keep multiple options open at all times

As elected officials understand, it is important to be 'þeople-focused" (actively listening to all constituent needs) - or else they won't be re-elected. Contractors or municipality staff members, who are responsible for achieving their milestones, tend to be much more 'þroblem-focused." The Facility Siting Credo balances both'þroblem-focused" and'þeople-focused" needs to arrive at solutions that are "\ryin-win" instead of 'owin-lose."

April6,2017 Marin County Civil Grand Jury Page29 of37 Overcoming Barriers to Housing Affordability APPENDIX E: Marin Housing Perceptions

fncreased housing issues are beÍng forced upon MarÍn County FACT: All housing issues are under local govenrment control. Established in 2008, the Sustainable Communities Act's (Senate Bill 375) goal was to target greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from passenger vehicles. To achieve that, each of Califomia's regional planning agencies must develop a Sustainable Communities Strategt that "contains land use, housing, and transportation strategies that, if implemented, would allow the region to meet its GHG emission reduction targets."67 In 2013, our local regional planning agencies, Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), jointly approved Plan Bay Area66 to satisft the Sustainable Communities Act. Plan Bay Area contains strategies for meeting the anticipated demand for transportation, housing, and land use in local Priority Development Areøs (PDAs). Municipalities that approve PDAs are awarded with transportation grant funds and cannot be legally forced to approve the housing allocations for the PDAs.

Marin County has insufficient resources for an increased population FACTS: ¿ Fire - With improved technology and improved fire agency cooperation, fire staffïng has decreased in recent years while still providing excess capacity. With more people, the 9-1-1 demands for EMS and fire will likely increase, and response times may suffer (without additional staffing). ¿ Hospitals - The long term national trend is a decreased inpatient hospital demand.6e If the increased population were mostly younger and agile, then demand for inpatient services would be considerably less than an increased older population with pre-existing conditions. Both (the new) Marin General Hospital and Novato Community Hospital have excess capacity to adaptto at least a20Yo increase inpopulation. ¡ Open Space - Marin County open spaces and parks receive approximately 6 million total visitors per year. The County's active land management goals are to encourage visitation and recreation while balancing the physical infrastructure, programing and communications to ensure that both facilities and recreation have minimal impacts on ecosystems, neighbors and visitor experience. ¿ Police - Given the level of crime in Marin, adding 10-15% to the population would not likely have a major impact on the ability of the police force to suppress or investigate criminal behavior. Additional population would likely necessitate a change in staffing levels. ¿ Schools - Many Marin County public schools have demographic study updates in which consultants attempt to project future district size to plan accordingly for the future. For 2016- 2017 school year, Marin County public schools have an enrollment of 38,941. Kentfield School District has a capacity of I ,560 students and a current enrollment of 1,246 (utilization factor of 79.9%).By 2020 the projected utilization factor will be 89.6%. As of 2013, Larkspur-Corte Mader¿ School had enrollment of 1,462 students and project by 2023 an enrollment of 1,593. As of 2016, Dixie School District had 2,005 students enrolled and projected to grow to 2,089 by 2025.

Marin County has insufficient resources for an Íncreased population (cont'd) ¿ Sewers - Central Marin Sanitation Agency (CMSA) (serving 120,000 customers in Corte Madera, Larkspur, Ross Valley, and San Rafael) has capacity to treat over 125 MGD (million gallons of water/day). Normal use is 7-12 MGD, and during storms, peak rainwater incursion temporarily has increased to 116 MGD. Additional population (with better sewer laterals) would not overflow the system. On a smaller scale for example, Sewerage Agency of Southern Marin (SASM) normally processes 2.3MGD, with peak storrn processing of 30-32 MGD. SASM's total processing of 32.7MGD (with an additional 3.2MG equalization basins) would likewise not cause system overflow problems with increased population in the SASM service area. / Water - Water Districts are state mandated to produce a Urban Water Management Plan every five years to confirrn that water supply will be available to meet projected water demand considering the population and jobs projections of local or regional land use planning agencies. Marin Municipal Water District (MMWD) has capacity to handle over 210,000 customeß (currently 189,000 customers) with an assumption of three consecutive dry years. North Marin Water District (NMWD) has 20,535 customers and has capacity to handle over 67,482 customers. Both MMWD and NMÌWD have plans in place for customer outreach and water conservation projects that can be expanded in an effort to extend the time when the water district may need to increase capacity or importation.

Report Date: June 15,2017 Meeting Date: June 20,2017

TO: TOWN MANAGER, MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL

FROM ADAM V/OLFF, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING AND BUILDING JUDITH PROPP, ASSISTANT TOWN ATTORNEY

SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE ACTION TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 24/ 201 7 ESTABLIS HING PROCEDURES AND REQUIREMENTS FOR PROCESSING AND CONSIDERATION OF DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS **

PURPOSE:

This item is presented to the Town Council with a request to approve Resolution No. 24/2017 to establish procedures and requirements for the processing and consideration of development agreements in the Town of Corte Madera.

Government Code $65858(c) requires that when an applicant for a development project makes a request for a development agreement, the city must establish procedures and requirements for the consideration of a development agreement application.

The Town has received a request for a development agreement from an applicant, as more fully described below, so the Town is required by state law to establish the procedures and requirements for the consideration of the development agteement. The application for a development agreement is a discretionary approval process by the Town Council.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

By motion, approve Resolution 2412017 establishing procedures and requirements for the processing and consideration of development agreements.

TOWN MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION:

Support the recommendation.

7.I.iv FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no immediate fiscal impact.

CEQA STATUS:

Approval of this Resolution is not defined as a project under CEQA (Section 15378 CEQA Guidelines).

BACKGROUNDiDISCUSSION :

In late 20l6,the Town received a request irom Macerich, owners of the center parcel of the Village at Corte Madera, with a request to enter into negotiations for a development agreement with the Town for the use of the adjacent 5.4 acre gravel lot, with the purpose of improving it to provide parking to facilitate the development of the proposed new Restoration Hardware Design Gallery, and to provide improved parking facilities for the entire Village at Corte Madera retail center.

Government Code Section 65858(c) requires the following:

Every city, county, or city and county, shall, upon request ofan applicant, by resolution or ordinance, establish procedures and requirements for the consideration of development agreements upon application by, or on behalf of, the property owner or other person having a legal or equitable interest in the property.

A development agreement is a contract negotiated between project applicant(s) and a public agency that govem land uses that may be allowed in a particular project. The development agreement is essentially a planning tool that allows the public agency greater latitude to advance local planning policies. Under California law, a development agreement is adopted by an ordinance. The Town Council is the final decision maker with approval rights for a Development Agreement.

The attached Resolution would establish the procedures for processing and considering any development agreement in the Town of Corte Madera. The proposed procedures are consistent with the requirements for other development applications in the Town. The development agreement application process would be processed in conjunction with all other land use applications (i.e. design review, rezoning, conditional use permit, etc.) for the specific project. Development agreement applications are a discretionary approval and approving the proposed Resolution 24l111to establishing a process for consideration of development agreements does not in any way pre-approve any agreements.

The procedures would require review of the development agreement by the Planning Commission with a recommendation to the Town Council. The Planning Commission's review is limited to the land use issues of a development agreement, but not the financial or business terms thal may be a part of a negotiated agreement authori zedby the Town Council.

OPTIONS:

l. Approve Resolution 24/2017. 2. Request staff to provide additional information and/or modifications to the proposed resolution and continue the matter to a future date.

She referred to 2016/2017 42 accomplishments and asked for a description of the “Remodel Community Center Offices.” Mr. 43 Fiorentini discussed work during the 2 ½ week holiday break to remodel back offices, which Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 5 June 6, 2017

There is a call for submission of sites and it appears that 25 tackling sea level rise will become more time-consuming for jurisdictions. She hoped to be able 26 to partner with some other agencies and obtain grant funding, and she asked Mr. Bracken to 27 consider this as an additional work item. 28 29 Mr. Bracken recognized Kelly Crowe who is involved in these meetings with the County and is 30 well-versed in this work as well as flood plain issues and water pollution control which will take 31 up more staff time in the future. 32 33 Public Works/Field Operations and Maintenance Division: 34  Maintenance of the Town’s streets, medians, parking lots, drainage ways, lagoons and 35 marshes, storm drain system, parks and community gathering areas, landscaped areas 36 surrounding Town-owned facilities 37  Functions as the maintenance staff of Sanitary District No. 2 and is responsible for 38 maintenance of all sanitary facilities 39  During the winter, all drainage and sanitary facilities functioned well given the high level 40 of maintenance 41  Continuation of work with utility companies and private developers to ensure the Town’s 42 infrastructure is not compromised by their activities Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 6 June 6, 2017

He noted Mr. Bracken oversees this division given the retirement of Kevin Kramer 16 and Mr. Palmer has taken over the leadership role within maintenance. 17 18 He then discussed staff’s analysis of use of their senior maintenance workers and maintenance 19 workers, overtime, and contract work. Based on this analysis, staff recommended hiring 3 20 additional maintenance workers, flatten the organization at the top and focus on an operational 21 structure for staffing and work needs throughout the need to provide the best service. Contract 22 services have decreased as well as overtime, with a salary/benefit savings has been about 23 $180,000. 24 25 Mayor Furst recognized the Town’s infrastructure, especially flood control infrastructure as 26 being very sophisticated which she briefly described as very impressive. She asked whether the 27 Town has any risk in eliminating one of the senior maintenance workers and an equipment 28 mechanic. 29 30 Mr. Cusimano explained cross-training of maintenance workers and build-up of their ranks and 31 expertise, and said no service delivery will be lost as a result. 32 33 Councilmember Bailey recognized staff’s work in East Corte Madera during the heavy storms, 34 noting that Councilmembers received emails about this work and he asked Mr. Palmer to express 35 appreciation to all employees. 36 37 Councilmember Ravasio and Mayor Furst echoed these comments, stating no one knows how 38 unique these positions are until the work is not being done. He saw a lot of flooding throughout 39 the county and noted he never saw a clogged drain in Corte Madera all winter, and recognized 40 the job of maintenance staff. 41 42 Police: 43 Chief Norton began by providing a brief overview of CMPA’s history, the Police Council, and 44 noted their budget which includes a funding formula for Corte Madera which is 27.86%.

In her opinion this is one of the most important things CMPA can do 29 to ensure safety of officers and of the community. 30 31 Planning: 32  Completion of the Tamal Vista Corridor Study and adoption of the Mixed Use MX-1 33 zoning district 34  Review and processing of major development projects, facilitating the Town’s land use 35 process. 36  Review and update of development fees, including traffic mitigation fees, affordable 37 housing fees, consideration of a General Plan maintenance fee. 38  Planning and Building staff are new and they have a great team, focused on providing the 39 best customer service, being fair and objective and instilling trust. 40 41 Building: 42  Receive submittal of plans for review and adherence to the Building Code and standards 43  Perform over 1,600 building inspections annually Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 8 June 6, 2017

1  Coordinate with outside agencies such as Marin County Health, BAAQMD, Water 2 Quality Control Board, BCDC, and ensuring safety of the community. 3 4 Mr. Cusimano thanked and recognized Planning and Building staff for effectively managing 5 their sometimes difficult work and he noted the Town added a code enforcement officer within 6 this fiscal year to handle neighborhood issues. 7 8 Councilmember Bailey recognized how challenging the positions in the department are, and he 9 asked if the department is sufficiently staffed. 10 11 Mr. Wolff said yes and added that for some of the larger projects, staff has hired contract 12 planners to project-manage certain applications which are paid for by the developer. Staff also 13 tries to anticipate their workload in advance and he believes they have a great team of dedicated 14 staff. 15 16 Mr. Cusimano thanked staff for their presentations, voiced appreciation for their work and said 17 staff expects to provide the Budget at its next Council meeting. 18 19 Mayor Furst opened the public comment period. 20 21 TED MACKAY stated the Corte Madera Town Band will be playing at Golden Gate Park on the th th 22 concourse on June 11 . On June 18 they will be playing at Piccolo Plaza in town, as well as the th 23 July 4 parade. 24 25 4. COUNCIL AND TOWN MANAGER REPORTS 26 27 o Town Manager Report 28 o Update on Construction Progress at 310 Summit Drive: 29 . The memo before the Council and copies for the public provides 30 information related to the Planning and Building Department’s 31 response to complaints of neighbors regarding 310 Summit Drive 32 including relevant background, current actions and intended next 33 steps. He asked Mr. Wolff to provide an update on actions taken to 34 date. 35 36 Mr. Wolff provided a brief overview regarding 310 Summit, stating the code enforcement 37 officer and building staff have addressed complaints quickly and efficiently. Staff inspected 38 the site and over the last 18 months has been working with the homeowner who has been 39 cooperative but slow in making progress. The homeowner is doing the work himself, staff 40 encourages movement, and the next step is determining whether work is being timely 41 addressed to achieve compliance. 42 43 Staff will also seek inspection of the interior of the home which relates to public safety and 44 will follow-up on any code issues discovered in that process. Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 9 June 6, 2017

1 2 Mayor Furst questioned the ramifications of not having a current permit for the house. 3 4 Mr. Wolff said the work on the house began in 1973 and over that time has been occupied. 5 He noted this was not the only house in town which does not have final building permits, 6 and staff is working on this as they discover them. 7 8 Mayor Furst opened the public comment period. 9 10 MATT MIHALY, Summit Drive, thanked the Council for taking the matter seriously in 11 addressing a problem that has existed over a couple of decades. He added that the City sent 12 the first complaint letter to Mr. Clifford and his wife Ann, joint owner of the property in 13 1999 stating the property has an adverse effect on the surrounding properties. The 14 property has essentially been occupied for 4 months over those 20 years and while he is 15 not familiar with Mr. Clifford, neighbors simply ask that he fix the property so it stops 16 adversely affecting other nearby properties. 17 18 DAN CLIFFORD, 310 Summit Drive, said people have lived in the house since 1979 and he 19 spoke about the short trail which was changed to Howard Trail long ago. He said in 1979 20 PG&E came and lowered their pipe into the ground. The sewer system on the trail has 21 broken 3 times and now they are almost 50 years old and he is trying to address the 22 situation. The situation is very personal now and he was told neighbors would like to see 23 him “sell the property and get off of the hill”. He said he has built many homes and was a 24 construction worker for many years. He said he was very upset and slapped Mr. Mahaley’s 25 car after bringing the matter to the Building Department which they said they would not do 26 and he hopes people will recognize he is trying to work on the house. 27 28 CHARLOTTE MAASSEN said she lives next door to Mr. Clifford over the last 20 years and 29 thinks there were a couple of months when the house was occupied by Mr. Clifford’s 30 daughter, but this was the extent of occupation. He said Mr. Clifford has never been a 31 neighbor to anyone on the block, he does not know neighbors and the house has been 32 derelict ever since 1994. He said if the home were in Tiburon or Ross, she could not 33 imagine the home would be allowed to be occupied and said she cannot imagine what the 34 inside looks like. She said Mr. Clifford waves to all neighbors who pass by and she stopped 35 her car the other day and he did not even know she was his neighbor. The site is hurting all 36 of the properties, this is not Mr. Clifford’s only property, and she asked that the nuisance be 37 addressed in a timely manner. 38 39 EILEEN MUNROE said she has lived at 327 Summit Drive since January 2012 and has never 40 witnessed anyone occupying 310 Summit. If she saw anyone there it was Mr. Clifford for a 41 couple of hours or possibly a weekend or two each month. The property is not maintained, 42 most likely has structural problems, and they live in a hire fire zone, and asked that it be 43 brought up to code. Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 10 June 6, 2017

1 2 WERNER MAASSEN said he is the next door neighbor and echoed comments of speakers. 3 He thanked the Town Council for the serious attention given to the matter since March and 4 asked that the nuisance be addressed timely. 5 6 Mr. Cusimano stated staff will continue moving through the enforcement process and steps 7 and ultimately the matter will be considered for the nuisance proceedings if not resolved in 8 a timely manner, and staff will provide updates on the process. 9 10 o - Update on OPEB (Other Post-Employment Benefits) Grand Jury Report 11 12 . Mr. Cusimano stated Mr. Warman had updated the Council on 13 OPEB and said the Council should be congratulated for its efforts. 14 15 o - Update on Larkspur-Corte Madera Shared Fire Services 16 17 . Mr. Cusimano provided an update, stating staff has been working 18 towards a potential consolidation of fire services. CalPERS must 19 determine if the pension reform from 3% at 50 to 3% at 55 can be 20 instituted. 21 . Corte Madera and Larkspur are one of the first agencies in 22 California to do this. Since pension reform was adopted in 2013, all 23 employees of new organizations formed are proposed to fall under 24 that reform act. Since then, CalPERS has analyzed the legislation 25 and they allow agencies now to continue with current contracts. 26 They have submitted an application for their proposed revisions 27 which could take up to 6 months for CalPERS to make a decision. 28 . Legal Counsel Tom Bertrand and Labor Negotiator Glenn 29 Berkheimer have been assisting them and they are looking at the 30 idea of forming the JPA in advance, putting everything in place, 31 continuing to keep Corte Madera employees as well as Larkspur, 32 but they would share employees under the umbrella of the JPA. 33 This allows them to start the process with CalPERS and allows 34 them to share services. 35 . The ad-hoc committee has been meeting to move forward with 36 formation of the JPA which would return to respective Councils for 37 approval, as recommended by legal counsel and their labor 38 negotiator. 39 . By submitting the application by the end of July, it starts a 3-6 40 month evaluation process and it does not lock the agencies into 41 anything but allows them to receive an answer from CalPERS. 42 . If they cannot reform the 3% at 50 scenario an option is for the 43 current classic Town and City employees to remain Town and City 44 employees until they retire or are taken “off the books.” They do 45 not recommend this, but it is an option. Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 11 June 6, 2017

1 . The Fire Labor Group asked that the name of their group be 2 agendized. They voted on it 100% to be named “Central Marin Fire 3 Department.” 4 5 Vice Mayor Condon said if the JPA is ratified by CalPERS and over time there are 6 discussions regarding eliminating the Fire House on Magnolia Avenue and perhaps 7 building another station elsewhere in Larkspur or using the station on Bon Aire, she asked 8 what sort of funding will be expected from Corte Madera for this. She also asked if there 9 was still the ability for Corte Madera to remove itself from the JPA consolidation if it turned 10 out not to be beneficial. 11 12 Mr. Cusimano said from ad-hoc committee discussions and talking points, they will be able 13 to undo everything. The way they are forming will provide protections for both agencies 14 on various issues. All facilities will be retained as well as all previous liabilities with both 15 agencies. He emphasized the fact that he is confident that both agencies will be well- 16 protected and the Town will save $500,000 annually from this without any reduction of 17 service. 18 19 Mayor Furst stated the ad-hoc committee will be discussing improvements of operations 20 and services and they are now video-recording meetings which will be posted on the 21 website under the Fire Department shared services. 22 23 She asked and clarified with Mr. Cusimano that the JPA will have a particular name 24 description such as Central Marin Fire Authority; however, the JPA document will include 25 wording that specifies that the actual department will be called Central Marin Fire 26 Department which is important to both fire agencies. 27 28 - Council Reports 29 30 Councilmember Ravasio gave the following report: 31  RVPA met last week and received and approved the audit from 2015/16, approved 32 the budget for 2017/18, slightly increased ambulance fees in the three jurisdictions 33 and received an EMS award from the American Heart Association. 34 35 Councilmember Andrews had no report. 36 37 Councilmember Bailey gave the following report: 38  He attended the MCE monthly Board meeting. They continue to grow, is financially 39 healthy and Contra Costa County’s member cities are about to join, and this reduces 40 rates incrementally. 41  He attended the MCCMC’s Legislative Committee. Assemblymember Marc Levine 42 attended and encouraged them to encourage residents to directly reach out to him 43 and those in his office with any issues. Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 12 June 6, 2017

1  He attended with Mayor Furst the shared fire services ad-hoc committee meeting. 2 3 Vice Mayor Condon gave the following report: 4 5  She attended the Chamber of Commerce Board meeting and gave the following 6 update: 7 o The golf tournament will be held October 12th at Stonetree Golf Course. 8 o The Chamber is concerned that there are letters being written through 9 Next Door, Marin IJ and social media which often times has 10 misinformation. This has affected progress made with the Best Western 11 and Restoration Hardware projects, and asked and confirmed that the 12 Town Manager will formulate a weekly newsletter to provide accurate 13 information about projects in the Town. 14 o The Executive Director is working on the 4th of July Parade which is 15 financed through TOT funds and she recognized the importance of hotels 16 in town for the event. 17 o Age-Friendly Corte and the Parks and Recreation Department held a 18 Senior Fair a couple of weeks ago which was a tremendous success. 19 Trader Joe’s provided a prize and 30 vendors participated in the event. 20 o On Wednesday, June 21st, the third Wednesday Speaker Series at CMPA 21 Community Room will be held and the topic is “Travel Tips.” 22 23 Mayor Furst suggested the Town Manager provide updates as warranted for the Chamber 24 of Commerce. She noted that some cities hire Public Information Officers to address these 25 types of things, but the Town does not have such a position. 26 27 Mayor Furst gave the following report: 28 29  There is a new organization in the Bay Area called Resilient by Design which is a 30 design competition to address sea level rise and climate change and other resiliency 31 issues in the Bay Area. They are calling for 1) design teams to tackle resilient issues, 32 and 2) are looking for sites that might be offered as potential candidates for one of 33 the design solutions. Corte Madera has bay waterfront sites and she and Kelly 34 Crowe attended the meeting where they hope to arrange a time to meet 35 representatives. Applications are due by July 14th; however, the County is working 36 on putting together a cohesive list. Chris Choo in the County Planning Department 37 has requested a list by next Tuesday. 38  She provided an update on TAM: 39 o Construction on the third lane of the Richmond Bridge heading eastbound is 40 underway and is due to open this November. The Bike Path on the upper 41 deck is not part of this which will take longer. 42 o A MOU has been signed which officially combines ABAG and MTC staff which 43 will be under MTC. The full agency merger is likely to follow. Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 13 June 6, 2017

1 o Regional Measure 3 which is the proposed increase in bridge tolls with funds 2 going towards transportation projects has passed the State Senate. It 3 requires state legislation and then it goes to voters of the 9 counties. The 4 Assembly is likely to refine the language, list projects or priorities, and if this 5 passes and the Governor signs it, it will be undertaken by the Bay Area Toll 6 Authority to manage the voter initiative process. 7 o This summer a pilot project for carpool lanes southbound in the morning will 8 be extended from 6:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. 9 Northbound hours are likely to be extended as well, but this will most likely 10 not occur until 2018. 11  Marin County Department of Public Works is converting to 100% renewable diesel. 12 Some other jurisdictions already have and the conversion uses fats, oils and grease 13 to create diesel. It burns cleaner and costs the same as regular diesel. All San 14 Francisco and Oakland Public Works vehicles have been converted and there is also 15 less maintenance required on vehicles. 16  The Town Council will schedule on an upcoming agenda whether to join Climate 17 Mayors. She thanked the Town Clerk for bringing this to her attention. 18 19 BREAK 20 Mayor Furst called for a break at 10:00 p.m. and reconvened the regular meeting at 10:06 21 p.m. 22 23 5.

Warman, Jr., Director of Administrative 28 Services/District Treasurer) 29 30 Director of Administrative Services/District Treasurer George T. Warman, Jr. stated the 31 item is the annual ministerial action which the District is required to set an appropriation 32 limit each year. The Sanitary District receives Proposition 13 allocation of property taxes, 33 hence requiring an appropriation limit. 34 35 The appropriation limit for 2017/18 is $10,510,212 which is substantially above the actual 36 proceeds of taxes and the result is that the Gann limit has no effect on the District in 37 2017/18. The recommendation is to adopt Resolution 03/2017 setting the appropriation 38 limit for FY 2017/18 in the amount of $10,510,212. 39 40 President Furst noted that this is just an appropriation limit and it does not mean the 41 District will actually be spending that amount. She opened the public comment period and 42 there were no speakers. 43 Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 15 June 6, 2017

Warman, Jr., Director of Administrative 15 Services/Town Treasurer) 16 17 Director of Administrative Services/Town Treasurer George T. Warman, Jr. stated the item 18 is the annual ministerial action which the Town is required to set an appropriation limit 19 each year. 20 21 The recommendation is to adopt Resolution 29/2017 setting the Town appropriation limit 22 for proceeds of taxes at $35,880,804 for FY 2017/18. This amount would be substantially 23 above the actual estimate of proceeds of taxes of about $19,588,000 below the 24 appropriation limit. Therefore, the Gann limit has no impact on the Town in FY 2017/18. 25 26 MOTION: Moved by Andrews, seconded by Ravasio, and approved unanimously by the 27 following vote: 5-0 (Ayes: Andrews, Bailey, Condon, Ravasio and Furst; Noes: 28 None) 29 30 To approve Town Resolution No. 29/2017 Establishing the Town 31 Appropriation Limit For 2017-2018 in the amount of $35,880,804 32 33 7. BUSINESS ITEMS 34 7.I Conduct Workshop to Review Proposed Capital Improvement Program (CIP) 35 Budget for Fiscal Year 2017/18 36 (Report from David Bracken, Director of Public Works/Town Engineer and 37 Todd Cusimano, Town Manager) 38 39 Director of Public Works/Town Engineer David Bracken said staff is not requesting the 40 Council take action tonight. The presentation is a workshop to provide an overview of the 41 CIP, and action would be requested on June 20th. 42 Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 16 June 6, 2017

1 He referred to the staff report and noted that the CIP is an ambitious program. The budget 2 numbers are educated estimates and could change through the course of the projects. Over 3 the last few years, the Town had an accessibility category which he is recommending 4 eliminating. He began this after the lawsuit filed against the Town and the court issued a 5 Consent Decree which required the Town to spend a certain amount of dollars over a 6 certain amount of time. He noted that over 80% of the cost of the Complete Streets 7 Tamalpais Drive project relates to accessibility. He stated the Town can easily track any 8 parts of accessibility projects. 9 10 He stated there are different funding sources and he listed the intent of what the taxes are 11 for per the Municipal Code. As a rule of thumb, he typically charges projects less than 12 $25,000 to the storm drain tax, and the same applies to the half-cent sales tax where bullet 13 items are listed from the resolution approved at the election. 14 15 Typically the Town has a pavement rehabilitation project, street overlay and slurry seal 16 project, and he has included a preliminary determination for a number of streets slated to 17 be improved. Staff will return to the Council for approval of plans and specifications with a 18 definitive list. 19 20 Mr. Bracken noted attachments to the staff report include the Draft CIP, a list of secured 21 and potential funding in grants and he recognized Ms. Patel in her pursuit of grants. The 22 final attachment is a summary budget listing the funding sources for the projects, which 23 could change between now and the next Council meeting. 24 25 He discussed the various projects and asked for comments from Councilmember. 26 27 Mr. Cusimano recognized the Director of Finance’s work to assist in the CIP. He noted 28 Attachment 1 lists all projects which will be the future budget document showing funding 29 sources, total estimate for the project, what was paid in prior years and what they 30 anticipate for FY 2017/18 and in future years. The sales tax override includes over $5 31 million in expenditures which staff will recommend in the plan per the Town, the 32 community’s and the Sales Tax Oversight Committee’s recommendations. 33 34 Mr. Bracken provided an overview of accessibility projects and said beginning in 2015/16 35 the Town will need to spend $3 million over the course of 10 years which is documented. 36 This includes accessibility projects or parts of accessibility in projects such as curb ramps 37 which are approximately $50,000 each. In response to a request from Mayor Furst, Mr. 38 Bracken stated he will provide an outline of projects and their expenditures under this 39 category. 40 41 He presented and discussed a portion of the projects listed and presented environmental 42 projects as handled by Senior Engineer Kelly Crowe, flood control projects of Lagoon One 43 pump station and gate structure upgrade and the Lagoon Two project. He noted that Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 17 June 6, 2017

1 during the last two year budget period all pumps were proposed to be replaced; however, 2 what needs to be done is a complete upgrade. The next page includes a listing of projects 3 which are relatively minor. 4 5 Councilmember Bailey noted that the Tidal Barrier project does not have a project number 6 which is below Project #16-016. 7 8 Mr. Bracken said the Town sees constant flooding in the winter in the area of Golden Hind 9 Passage which is the lowest point in Mariner Cove. Several years ago a Town-wide drainage 10 study was done where staff identified the need for a levy and 7 pump stations in Mariner 11 Cove. The levy was estimated to cost $20 million, and funding will need to be derived from 12 several sources as well as an assessment district. He included immediate two year project 13 funding and noted that a difficult part will be getting through the regulatory process and he 14 briefly described construction methods of a levy and settlement. 15 16 Councilmember Bailey said as he recalled from attending Flood Control Board meetings, a 17 levy has been degrading that is closer to the wetlands area and he confirmed with Mr. 18 Bracken that there is no levy there but there is a line item for this area. He explained that 19 Mariner Cove was built with fill as a high level project above sea level. It was filled at a time 20 when officials believed it would not flood but the fill settled and it has sunk. Mr. Bracken 21 stated he has recorded almost 6 feet of settlement at the tip of Golden Hind Passage. 22 23 Councilmember Bailey stated he had understood it was $350,000 just to have someone 24 diagnose the scope of the problem and prepare a preliminary design. He noted $700,000 is 25 allocated and he asked and confirmed with Mr. Bracken said this includes the design and 26 the environmental regulatory or full EIR process, as well. 27 28 Councilmember Bailey asked if the $20 million estimate is something staff believes will be 29 needed for the levy. Mr. Bracken stated this estimate was prepared for a levy around 30 Mariner Cove without a tide gate across San Clemente Creek, which was a big issue in the 31 1990’s. A tide gate would eliminate much of the levy’s length but it would be difficult to get 32 through the regulatory process. The Town consulted with a company to review a levy 33 following San Clemente Creek which doubles the cost. 34 35 Councilmember Bailey asked if the design work will provide an indication of the urgency of 36 the problem, whether the Town should approach this as an emergency or whether it is 37 something that needs prioritization in the future. 38 39 Mr. Bracken said this will protect a section of Mariner Cove and not the entire Town, said 40 homeowners have complained that the wave action from cars are hitting front porches. It 41 is dramatic now and will continue to get worse. He was not sure at what point the Town 42 should declare the work as an emergency; however, it is currently flooding garages, getting Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 18 June 6, 2017

1 to the front door threshold of homes, and continuing to settle. The Town is getting to the 2 point of having to form an assessment district, given the continual settlement. 3 4 Mayor Furst said the Council should receive the recommendation from the Flood Control 5 Board and Mr. Bracken stated they are meeting next week and they are aware of the 6 problem. 7 8 Councilmember Andrews noted the Flood Control Board is attempting to determine how to 9 spread funds to do the best amount of work; however, Mr. Bracken stated the overall costs 10 have risen. 11 12 Mayor Furst asked that the Town Manager agendize the matter to form an ad-hoc 13 committee comprised of Public Works, members of the Flood Board and two 14 Councilmembers to discuss and make recommendations. 15 16 Councilmember Andrews asked if the tidal barrier project will be FEMA compliant and Mr. 17 Bracken stated it will be the best with what the Town can get unless a significant amount of 18 funds are approved for expenditure. 19 20 Mr. Bracken said in addressing the entire picture of Mariner Cove, when it was built and fill 21 installed, it was built just barely higher than what the Code at the time said it should be 22 built for subdivisions. Also, it was built with minimum longitudinal grades on all gutters 23 and streets for a minimum amount of grade and slope. Therefore, differential settlement 24 has occurred between 20 and 30 feet. The reason slotted drain are needed is that when 25 installed they will remove curb ponding because the gutter itself has lost the minimum 26 slope it once had. In addition to building the levy, they need to fix the curb ponding which 27 is a safety hazard and this is the reason for the slotted drains project. 28 29 Another component of the overall project includes pump stations. The Town-side drainage 30 study surveyed everything and recommended 7 pump stations to make the entire process 31 work. Only one was built and a second one needs to be built at Golden Hind and Ebb Tide. 32 When combined with the levy, the slotted drains and the pump stations at $1 million, this is 33 a lot of money. He supported forming an ad-hoc committee that will determine and make 34 recommendations how to effectively fund these projects. 35 36 Mr. Cusimano stated the sales tax override comes up for a potential extension in 2020 as 37 well as the flood tax in 2022, and staff is looking to identify its fiscal health, forecast out and 38 evaluate and prioritize all infrastructure needs and dollar amounts. 39 40 Mayor Furst said assuming the Council approves the CIP at its next meeting, she asked and 41 confirmed that projects of approximately $50,000 and more on the CIP would return to 42 Council for consideration of approval with plans and specifications to go out to bid. 43 Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 19 June 6, 2017

1 Councilmember Bailey said he believes that one of the dangers they can foresee happening 2 is that flooding in east Corte Madera and Mariner Cove will get worse and worse gradually 3 and he supported putting in place mitigation measures. Mayor Furst agreed that the Town 4 must look at the big picture. 5 6 Mr. Bracken said most of the items in the list are based on the Town-wide drainage study 7 vetted by the Flood Control Board, as well as estimates. There are limited funds and he 8 hopes to be able to achieve success in getting the projects done to address flooding issues. 9 10 Mr. Bracken referred to the Tidal Barrier project, Golden Hind Storm Drain Pump Station 11 and Slotted Drains projects and said these are to address the worst intersection for tidal 12 flooding in the town. The Marina Village Levy Improvements project is the start of what 13 they call the north/south levy and it ties into another levy which runs all the way to 14 Larkspur parallel with the old railroad tracks. This is the levy which is protecting the Town 15 right now and is also sinking. 16 17 He continued on and noted the next page includes minor projects, and the next three pages 18 include long-term projects as identified in the Town-wide drainage study which are low 19 priority as compared to the others. 20 21 Councilmember Andrews asked if the check valves are working, and Mr. Bracken said a 22 couple of check valves in the Mariner Cove pump station need to be replaced, given the 23 extremely corrosive environment from salt water and material in clay and Bay mud. 24 25 Mr. Bracken then referred to the lighting projects and said the one main project replaces all 26 street lights with LED lights. This is paid eventually through PG&E but the Town must pay 27 for it upfront. Many agencies did this and ran into initial problems with the levels of 28 lighting which the Town can benefit from based on comments. 29 30 Councilmember Andrews noted a demonstration lighting project occurred a few years ago, 31 and Mr. Bracken stated Mr. Crowe can follow-up on this, alert Councilmembers and the 32 public of the location and report back before purchasing the numerous LED lights. 33 34 Mayor Furst asked if the Town receives a grant and noted that the Town is paid back 35 applying the energy savings difference each month. Mr. Bracken stated funds are also 36 received from PG&E as well, but he could bring this information forward at the next 37 meeting. 38 39 Mayor Furst stated the City of Novato has someone on their Public Works staff that is an 40 expert on LED streetlights, and also asked if staff was considering the new “Smart Poles”. 41 She believes the City of Pinole has implemented these and she agreed to email Mr. Bracken 42 with this information. Mr. Bracken said Mr. Crowe is very knowledgeable and familiar with 43 the most up to date technology and he will follow-up.

1 2 Regarding park CIP projects, Mr. Bracken stated pathways around former San Clemente 3 Park, now Cove Park, need to be replaced. Drainage problems and interior paint are for the 4 bathrooms, and overall maintenance and landscaping is also needed which was pushed 5 forward from the last CIP. They have also pushed out Town Park Pathway Repairs as well 6 for several years, given root problems. 7 8 Mayor Furst asked to change the name of San Clemente to Cove and Mr. Bracken agreed to 9 change this throughout the document. 10 11 Mayor Furst said as changes and repairs are being done, she asked and confirmed that 12 water saving devices and energy efficient devices are used. 13 14 Mr. Bracken turned the Council’s direction to the next page, and he highlighted the Tennis 15 Court Resurfacing Project for Town Park and Granada Park. He said the Town resurfaced 16 Granada Park some time ago and it surprises him that this is needed and has a note to 17 follow-up to review this. The Town Park tennis courts have been pushed out over many 18 budget periods. 19 20 Councilmember Andrews referred to the Shade Structure at Town Park Playground and 21 confirmed this was being installed this summer. 22 23 Mayor Furst commented on the Green Room Stairs project, stating if the Town is going to 24 look at the Community Center and various rooms and how they relate to each other she 25 suggested taking future use into consideration when designing these stairs. If the Town 26 pours concrete for any reason, she suggested looking at these needs in totality for areas 27 that also need concrete pours, and Mr. Bracken agreed. 28 29 Mr. Bracken stated the next page includes minor projects and noted that the $12,000 Dog 30 Park Feasibility Study has been completed and the results will be pushed out. Mayor Furst 31 asked if the study had been posted to the Town’s website and if not, asked that it be added. 32 33 Councilmember Andrews asked who owns the land by the gravel lot by the Acura station 34 towards the bay on Paradise and the pump station. Mr. Bracken confirmed the Town owns 35 the land east of San Clemente Drive and purchased it from the Golden Gate Bridge District 36 who has a right to buy it back for a dollar. 37 38 Councilmember Andrews asked if a dog park could be located there. Mr. Cusimano stated 39 staff will be bringing the dog park issue back to the Council and are meeting with the Parks 40 and Recreation Commission. 41 Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 21 June 6, 2017

1 Mr. Cusimano noted that the remaining list of projects were carry-over projects except for 2 flood control projects. He asked if the Council had any further questions or comments on 3 remaining projects. 4 5 Mayor Furst referred to the Eastman Parking Lot Reconfiguration Feasibility Study and 6 staff request of $40,000 to hire consultants to explore the possibilities of expanding the 7 parking lot. She asked a $40,000 consultant was needed, and Mr. Bracken stated this issue 8 has come up in the past which is a safety issue, but he noted this was in the last year’s 9 budget, but it is not needed. Mayor Furst voiced her desire for restricting the use of 10 consultants, and Mr. Bracken agreed to draft a plan for the item. 11 12 Mayor Furst referred to Project 04-011; Endeavor Cove Slide Prepared Evaluation and 13 asked if this was on Town property. Mr. Bracken said yes and this is another area the Town 14 acquired as part of that subdivision. 15 16 Mayor Furst referred to Project 14-003; the High Canal Bridge Pathway wherein the project 17 status states “canceled.” She thought this was on hold and did not believe it was completely 18 canceled. 19 20 Mr. Bracken stated the Town has tried several times to pave this and it has been discussed 21 at BPAC and the homeowners on Birch do not want this paved. 22 23 Councilmember Bailey remembered this as very contentious with many residents opposed. 24 25 Mayor Furst noted that a child fell in the canal and it is a safety issue. Councilmember 26 Ravasio stated there is an access easement issue and it is being used by the public. Mr. 27 Bracken stated he will review this as to what the Town can do to address safety and 28 confirmed there was no funding requested for this item. 29 30 Mayor Furst referred to the Paradise Drive Sidewalk Replacement project a few pages after 31 the last project. She said she thought the Town had received some funding for this. Mr. 32 Bracken said the Town will have the funding specified, identify the right-of-way there, said 33 he will review this with Ms. Patel and confirm details at the next meeting. 34 35 Mayor Furst referred to the next two pages under Project 15-028; Capital Project, 36 Development and Review. She said while not a significant amount of funds, it includes 37 preparation of studies, concepts and reviews to support capital project development, as 38 funded through the sales tax override. Mr. Bracken stated this is nothing specific and is a 39 placeholder for future projects. 40 41 Councilmember Andrews referred to Install 16 Bicycle Racks around Town. He questioned 42 if there were a way to protect bikes once they are attached to racks. Mr. Bracken stated 43 these are racks the Town has which need to be installed. Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 22 June 6, 2017

1 2 Vice Mayor Condon referred to the last item, the Town Entry Sign. She said the sign had 3 been designed, conceptually approved by the Planning Commission and was something the 4 Town Center was going to build for the Centennial. There was an agreement that the Town 5 was going to pay for the letters and the logo and the rest would be paid for by the Town 6 Center. At the last minute, they changed their mind and they wanted the Town to pay a 7 certain price. 8 9 Mr. Cusimano stated it was an additional $60,000 in utility costs plus a ground lease of 10 approximately $2,500 a month along with other additions. 11 12 Vice Mayor Condon noted she believes the Town’s maintenance staff was also asked to 13 maintain the landscaping and she thought it was absurd after Town Center had agreed to 14 pay for it. 15 16 Mr. Bracken said it was the same concept and the number does not reflect the latest Town 17 Center information. Mayor Furst added work is underway to find another location such as 18 on the Caltrans property. She noted this is a placeholder to find another spot for a nice 19 Town sign that does not require the Town to incur all of the extra expenses. 20 21 Mr. Bracken concluded his presentation and asked Councilmembers or the public to contact 22 him with any questions between now and June 20, 2017. 23 24 Mayor Furst stated she was walking her dog and picking up trash along the pathway near 25 Redwood and Wornum and she found many cigarette butts at the planting and seating area 26 at the foot of Wornum. She asked and confirmed staff can include a disposal for cigarette 27 butts. 28 29 Mayor Furst opened the public comment period. 30 31 KAREN GERBOSI, Chair of the Sales Tax Oversight Committee, asked staff to include page 32 numbers on documents in the packet and said asked to assign sequential project numbers. 33 She referred to the Disaster Preparedness Coordinator and did not understand why there 34 was money in the budget in 2017/18 for this position, but nothing thereafter. 35 36 Mr. Cusimano responded that the CIP is a one-year proposal and not a forecast. 37 38 Mayor Furst asked and confirmed with Mr. Bracken that the project number is based upon 39 the year associated with its origination and the next three numbers are categories as far as 40 whether it is a Town or sanitary project, and page numbers will be included. 41 42 Mayor Furst concluded the item. 43 Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 23 June 6, 2017

1 7.II Consideration and Possible Action to Either (1) Adopt Resolution 28/2017 2 Calling the Election and Requesting the County of Marin to Consolidate the 3 Election or (2) Introduce an Ordinance to Move the Election Date to June 5, 4 2018. 5 (Report from Rebecca Vaughn, Town Clerk) 6 7 Town Clerk Rebecca Vaughn stated at the May 16th Town Council meeting, staff introduced 8 concerns related to anticipated costs of the 2017 election and Council requested staff to 9 explore options. 10 11 This item is before the Council to discuss the two available options, one is to take the 12 opportunity to discuss the option of introducing an ordinance that would extend 13 Councilmember terms for the three seats expiring in 2017 to June 2018. The staff report 14 indicates no change to the 2019 expiring seats at this time because of pending State 15 legislation that could incur changes staff could not begin to process. 16 17 After discussing this option, if it is decided this is not an avenue the Council wishes to 18 pursue, the Council can take the opportunity to adopt Resolution 28/2017 and call the 19 November election and proceed as normal for the odd-year November elections. She noted 20 that if this route is taken, staff would proceed as normal and the period for pulling 21 nomination papers and declaring candidacy would begin on July 17, 2017 through August 22 11, 2017 and the election would be held in November 2017. 23 24 If the Council elects to introduce the ordinance to change elections to June 2018 and cancel 25 the November 2017 elections, staff would return at the June 20th meeting for a second 26 reading and potential adoption. During the intervening two-week period, staff can gather 27 public comment to determine any interest or opposition to the matter. Staff can also bring 28 back the option of deciding not to adopt the ordinance and have the ability to call the 29 election with Resolution 28/2017. 30 31 Lastly, if the Council elects to move the election to June 2018 this open period for declaring 32 candidacy would be mid-February to mid-March. She was available to answer questions, as 33 well as the Town Manager and Interim Town Attorney. 34 35 Councilmember Bailey asked if Ms. Vaughn determined how many other school districts 36 and agencies will have moved their elections to June so a cost savings would be realized as 37 if they were all still on the same election track versus holding an election in November. 38 39 Ms. Vaughn stated school districts and other agencies moved their election to November of 40 2018, and June is the gubernatorial primary and the Town would save more money than 41 otherwise. She noted June elections would include Belvedere, Ross, and Mill Valley as well 42 as various county and state level offices and primaries. 43 Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 24 June 6, 2017

1 Councilmember Bailey asked if there would be county or state level primaries in 2 November, and Ms. Vaughn stated there would be none, although there could be ballot 3 measures. 4 5 Councilmember Bailey stated currently Fairfax, Larkspur, Novato, San Anselmo and Corte 6 Madera are in November. Ms. Vaughn stated the Town will realize savings but this is 7 something the County cannot predict. She has attempted to obtain information and the 8 best the election staff can do is provide a range of $7.00 to $7.50 per registered voter. 9 10 She said agencies have until August to submit ballot measures and, therefore, elections staff 11 does not know if anything is in the works at this time to potentially defray costs of 12 participants. However, a June election would not be as inexpensive as a November election, 13 but it would be less expensive than a November election Corte Madera would be 14 participating in for November 2017 but not November 2018 which would be a less 15 expensive election. 16 17 Vice Mayor Condon asked if Ms. Vaughn was able to obtain a ballpark estimate of what the 18 savings would be in moving the election to June versus this coming November. Ms. Vaughn 19 stated she did not, but believes it would be in the $4.00 to $6.00 per registered voter range; 20 however, this is speculative. She will ask the County to determine if she could obtain 21 something in writing and forward it to the Council this week and available for the June 20th 22 agenda. 23 24 Mr. Cusimano stated the Town could spend potentially $33,000 to $35,000 in staying with 25 the November 2017 election. The estimates are speculative, but conservatively, staff 26 believes there is still $20,000 to be saved by moving it to June 2018, and this is something 27 for the Council to consider. Ms. Vaughn reiterated the County is hesitant to provide an 28 estimate, given the many moving targets and whether or not ballot measures, initiatives or 29 other participants on the ballot. 30 31 Councilmember Bailey asked and confirmed that State office primaries for Governor and 32 others will be on the ballot of June 2018. Councilmember Bailey asked if there will be high 33 voter turnout. Ms. Vaughn said this is relative, but higher in terms of the current election. 34 Her research from the previous staff report showed that those cities that already have 35 elections in June stated the town could expect a low to mid-60% as opposed to high 80% to 36 low 90% for a November election or mid-to high 30% for November of odd years. 37 38 Mayor Furst asked if the highest was November of even years with about 88%. The second 39 highest is June of even years at about 65% and below that is November of odd years which 40 is what the Town currently has. Therefore, there would be improvement moving to June 41 2018. 42 Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 25 June 6, 2017

1 Councilmember Ravasio asked what the voter turnout is for Corte Madera, and Ms. Vaughn 2 replied it was about 35% to 36% in November 2015, and it would almost double the 3 turnout in a November 2018 election as well as save money. 4 5 Mayor Furst opened the public comment period, and there were no speakers. 6 7 Councilmember Andrews stated he remains against extending current Council terms, 8 stating Councilmembers were elected for a certain time period and he thinks they should 9 maintain this. 10 11 Vice Mayor Condon said she feels awkward supporting three positions staying on an extra 12 6 months; however, when she first ran and during her elections thereafter, she prioritized 13 the Town being prudent. Therefore, if it saves the Town money, given funds lost by the 14 closing of the dealership, she thinks that extending terms by 6 months and realizing a 15 savings, she thinks it is prudent. She also noted that the matter was previously discussed at 16 the last meeting, staff received one letter in support of extending, and there were no public 17 speakers tonight. 18 19 Councilmember Bailey stated he spoke with other Councilmembers about the concept. His 20 take-away was that they ought not to take themselves too seriously and probably care 21 more about the philosophy about the matter than constituents. On the other hand, he 22 agrees with Councilmember Andrews that Councilmembers were elected for specific terms. 23 When the amount of savings was $50,000 he thought he was sure it was worthy. He now 24 questioned whether saving the Town an estimated $20,000 and it could be more or less, if 25 they pushed the election forward and it cost the Town an identical amount, it would feel 26 futile. Pragmatically, $20,000 counts for something, but he said he was waffling. 27 28 Councilmember Andrews asked and confirmed the Town must notify the County after 29 tonight’s decision given tight time constraints and the need to be on the afternoon Board of 30 Supervisor’s agenda for the June 20th meeting for approval. They would include language 31 stating the matter is pending approval by the Corte Madera Town Council given the Town 32 Council meetings are in the evening. If the Council opted not to adopt the ordinance and 33 decided to call the election again, this would be the Town’s last available opportunity to call 34 the November election. 35 36 Councilmember Bailey said he was ready to be persuaded and while it feels ideological to 37 him, he agrees with Vice Mayor Condon. 38 39 Councilmember Ravasio stated he was appointed and he also spoke with Councilmembers 40 at the MCCMC event and the “don’t take yourself so seriously” part came through strongly 41 to him. Over the last two weeks in speaking to people around town, they said if the Town 42 can save money and extend the election by 6 months, they did not see a big deal with it. 43 However, he completely agrees with Councilmember Andrews as well. The deciding factor Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 26 June 6, 2017

1 for him and if he had to choose, is the difference in voter turnout by almost double. He 2 thinks the spirit of the law is for better turnout and participation in elections. By moving it 3 to June 2018, he thinks the Council is adhering to the spirit of that law and supported 4 moving the election to June 2018. 5 6 Mayor Furst stated this item was on the agenda at the last meeting and Ms. Vaughn posted 7 something on Next Door that very clearly explained the entire situation. There were no 8 emails or people attending this meeting, and one letter supporting moving the election to 9 June 2018. Therefore, the public has not told the Council not to do it and given this fact 10 combined with the savings and better voter turnout, she supported moving the election to 11 June 2018. 12 13 Councilmember Bailey confirmed that this does not apply to the next cycle, and Ms. Vaughn 14 stated staff will have to return with cleaned up language and said it makes sense to hold off 15 changing the November election. She noted that in researching primary activity, it looks as 16 though there will be all State offices, plus the Senate and Assembly and some heavy issues 17 to consider on the statewide primary election for a good turnout. 18 19 Councilmember Andrews made a motion to Adopt Resolution 28/2017 Calling the Election 20 and Requesting the County of Marin to Consolidate the Election. There was no second, and 21 the motion failed. 22 23 MOTION: Moved by Bailey, seconded by Ravasio, and approved unanimously by the 24 following vote: 4-1 (Ayes: Bailey, Condon, Ravasio and Furst; Noes: Andrews) 25 26 To Introduce an Ordinance Amending Section 2.38 of the Town of Corte 27 Madera Municipal Code to Move the November 2017 Election Date to June 5, 28 2018 resulting in an extension of the current Town Council terms up to 6 29 months 30 31 7.III (Pulled from agenda just prior to publication)Consideration and Possible 32 Action to Approve Resolution 24/2017 Establishing Procedures and 33 Requirements for Processing and Consideration of Development Agreements 34 (Report from Adam Wolff, Director of Planning and Building and Judith 35 Propp, Assistant Town Attorney) 36 37 7.IV Review of Draft June 20, 2017 Town Council Agenda 38 39 Mayor Furst asked the Town Clerk to agendize Climate Mayors on the Consent Calendar. 40 41 7.VI Approval of Minutes of May 16, 2017 Town Council Meeting 42 43 MOTION: Moved by Bailey, seconded by Ravasio, and approved unanimously by the Corte Madera Town Council and Sanitary District No. 2 Regular Meeting Minutes 27 June 6, 2017
