Adjourned Regular Meeting:
Present: John F. McInnis, Mayor
Charles W. Aby, Councilman
Harry A. Barbier, Councilman
Fred E. Jensen, Councilman
Absent: Louis H. Baar, Councilman
The meeting was opened in the Council Chambers in the City Hall by Mayor McInnis.
The Mayor then adjourned the meeting to the Recreation Center at Fourth and Unio n Streets for the pur-
pose of a public hearing on the General Plan. At the Recreation Center Mayor McInnis declared the meet-
ing opened and all Councilmen were present.
RE: GENERAL PLAN - File 115
Mayor McInnis addressed the assembled people, briefing them on the reason that the City had requested
Dan Coleman and Associates and William Spangle and Associates to prepare the proposed General Plan of the
City of San Rafael, The Mayor then proceeded to give a history ofthe different studies in the initia-
tion of a General Plan. The Mayor introduced Dan Coleman, Engineer, who was to describe the proposed
plan and wanted the people to know it was only a guide, and the final product would,be the thoughts and
ideas of the people of the area; together with the guidance of Planning Technicians. Mr. Coleman then
proceeded to describe the proposed plan. Upon Mr. Coleman's conclusion Mayor McInnis described the
controlling mechanisms and what controls the City had that would apply to the tidelands. Mayor McInnis
then invited comments from the audience.
The minutes to follow are presented in this form so that it would assist the Council to recall the area
the speaker represented and their reaction to the proposed plans as described by Dan Coleman.
Mr. John Irwin of Knight Drive objected to the proposed fill opposite Glenwood, designated as area No.
5 on the plan. He stated that the public would not have access to the waterbecause the lagoon as shown
on the plan would be in the back yards of the R-1 development. He believed in the double -decking of the
existing highway which would eliminate the proposed freeway out from the present shore line and felt
that the city should purchase the tidelands, and make them available to the public.
Mr. Willis Evans, representative of the Fish and Game Commission then addressed the Council and pointed
out that the tidelands are the feeding and breeding place for fish and wild fowl and the elimination of
the tidelands by filling would in turn eliminate sport fishing in the bay as well as out in the ocean
for the salmon spend considerable time in the bay. He felt that there was the need for a well coordinat-
ed plan for San Francisco Bay as a whole and requested that San Rafael cooperate with other Counties
and Cities for the preparation of an overall plan which would probably come from the Association of Bay
Area Governments.
Mr. Julian Gosliner of Robinhood Drive spoke about the matter ofrapid transit and was against the shore
line freeway, and he very much objected to the removal of trees for subdivision improvements, and felt
that there should be a replanting program to replace the trees which would help remove the scars of im-
provement.
Mr. Ronald Shafer of Santa Venetia spoke regarding the area adjacent to Santa Venetia and objected to
the density of population which the plan proposed. He was referring specifically to Section 12 as
shown on the plan.
Mr. Warren Henshaw of Santa Venetia also spoke regarding Section 12 and felt that the industrial area
would cause a traffic bottleneck for both the industry and for private traffic.
Mr. Lothar Salin of Ross Street, San Rafael spoke generally against the bay fill.
Mr. Avery Tyndall from San Pedro Road who also spoke specifically against area No. 5, and was very much
against the loss of view of the bay due to the hibh-rise apartments and felt that the creating of a
lagoon would soon be filled by silt and the taxpayer would then be subjected to costs for dredging out
the area.
Dr. William Neal of Margarita Drive generally spoke against the bay fill.
Mr. Marinhoff spoke against the plan in general and gave no specific reason.
Mr. Kahn David Enco spoke generally against the fill No. 5.
Mr. Vannessi of Santa Venetia spoke against area No. 12 and felt that the industrial area should be com-
patible to that of the R-1 which exists in Santa Venetia.
Dr. William Upton of Bayside Acres spoke regarding the fill adjacent thereto, and where it should come
from and it it should be imported it would be taken from cutting down a hill.
Mr. Dan Coleman answered this question by saying that the present fill that was being imported was sand
and was being barged in. Dr. Upton felt that any fill should be left out and that the Council should
await state action.
Mr. Denis Muir of Bayside Acres spoke against the fill and said that people who had moved here from the
City had come here for the country atmosphere and the wide open spaces and he requested that a public
body should acquire the bay shore for public use.
1}r. Jung of Bayside Acres contended that America as a whole wasn't building properly and he personally
was afraid of the slums that would result from the filling of the bay, and the high density of popula-
tion.
A lady who I was unable to get her name complained about the Stegge Subdivision and the land butchering
by him in Glenwood.
Mr. Winfield Smith of Sausalito informed the Council and the audience that the Council of the City of
Sausalito had declared a three year moratorium on the tidelands and requested that the City of San
Rafael follow suit.
Mr. Paul Jones of the Marin Rod and Gun Club requested that the Council declare a moratorium on the filling
of the tidelands.
Mary Shay of Bayside Acres questioned the Council regarding the location of the City limits on the map of
the proposed plan. Mayor McInnis then declared the hearing closed and notified the audience that the next
public hearing would be held on November 30th, 1964.
Meeting was adjourned.
