This review is required per the conditions of approval for this project; APN: 016-070-090, 140, 150 & 160; Planned Development (PD -1860) District; Marina Village LLC, owner/applicant; project site bordered by Loch Lomond, Bayside Acres and San Pedro Cove neighborhoods. BACKGROUND Site Description & Setting: The Loch,Lomond Marina site is located immediately south of Point San Pedro Road, approximately two miles east of US101. The marina property encompasses 131+ acres, which includes 29.5 acres of upland, a marina basin that is approximately 37.5 acres and 64 acres of submerged tidelands (open water). A diked seasonal wetland is located along the eastern edge of the property. The marina basin is developed with 517 boat berths and supportive marina uses and improvements. The uplands portion of the site is developed with a variety of marina -related uses, some neighborhood commercial uses and a full-service grocery market (Andy's Market). The San Rafael General Plan 2020 designates the marina property in three land use categories: Neighborhood Commercial; Marina -Related and Conservation. History & Project Description In 2007, the City Council approved the Village @ Loch Lomond Marina development for the marina property. Included in the City approvals was the adoption of the Planned Development (PD -1860) District, which is the master plan for site development. The PD -1860 District segregates the marina site into four land use areas, described as follows: Area A - marina/water/recreation, which permits the continuation of a full-service marina and park/marina green for public use Area B - neighborhood commercial/mixed use, which permits the development of 22,250 square feet of neighborhood commercial use including a new full-service grocery market, six residential condominium units Area C - residential, which permits the development of up to 76 residential units (single-family residences, cottages and townhomes) The remaining acres of submerged tidelands/water were not included in the PD1 860 District. Area D- conservation, includes preservation of the submerged tidelands (slough) and seasonal wetland The layout of the approved land use areas is provided in attached Exhibits A and A-1. The project was approved to be developed in several phases. The first phase covers site grading (surcharge of imported fill), subdivision "backbone" improvements, and the shoreline -park and marina green. This phase is near completion. The second phase covers development of the western and southern portion of Area C (residential; "The Strand"). Construction of this phase is currently underway. The third phase covers the development of a neighborhood commercial/mixed-use and marina parking/services in Area B, which is west of Loch Lomond Drive. In this area, the new Andy's Market is currently under construction. Review of Final Landscape and Irrigation Plans (Area Bw neighborhood commercial area) As noted above, the review of the final landscape and irrigation plans for Areas B and C require review and approval by the Design Review Board. This requirement is specified in Environmental and Design Review Permit ED04-063 condition 5. This condition of approval is presented in the attached table (Exhibit 2). The final plans that have been prepared and submitted at this time address the landscape and irrigation improvements in Area B only. The final landscape and irrigation plans for Area C were reviewed and approved by the DRB last summer. Further, please note some of the requirements under condition 5 have already been completed (e.g., landscape and related improvements that are a part of the park/marina green and marina commons area) or are not applicable for review at this time. The response column in Exhibit 2 provides a reference to the applicable plan sheets where the condition has been addressed. ANALYSIS As noted, the table presented in attached Exhibit 2 provides a response on how/if the final landscape and irrigation plans have been met. Reduced -size plan sets of the 2007 -approved Design Review Permit plans have been provided to the Board for comparison. A summary of the responses is provided below, which includes staff comments and recommendations for Board consideration: 1. Per condition 5a, the final plans include the installation of a number of native plant species. See Plan Sheets L-1.2 and L-4.1 on the final plan and Plan Sheet L-1.2, L-4.2 and L-4.5 in the 2007 - approved plans. In comparing the final plans with the 2007 -approved plans, it appears the plant species palette has been adjusted. Feedback is needed from the Board as to whether the amount and distribution of the native species is adequate. 2. Per condition 5c, street trees are proposed to be planted at consistent intervals along Point San Pedro Road and Loch Lomond Drive. 3. Per condition 5j, a solid wall (eight feet high) is proposed between the Andy's Market loading area and the marina parking lot. As specified on Plan Sheet L-6.1, a concrete block material is proposed for the wall with an integral color to match the market's exterior building siding, 4. Per condition 5n, the final landscape and irrigation plans have been reviewed and approved by the Marin Municipal Water District. The plans comply with MMWD Ordinance 721 (water conservation). See letter from MMWD, which is presented in attached Exhibit 3. OUTREACH AND NOTICING Notice of this meeting was mailed to property owners and residents within 500 feet of the upland boundaries of the marina site. In addition, notice was mailed to the three neighborhood associations that border the marina site. CONCLUSION Staff recommends that the Board approve the final landscape and irrigation plan. 2 EXHIBITS 1. PD1 860 District Development Plan- land use areas of development (Exhibits A and A-1) 2.

It is the landscape architect's or the owner's agent's responsibility to ensure that the installing contractor is supplied with a copy of Marin Municipal Water District's stamped and approved landscape plans prior to installation. Upon completion of the project the landscape architect or agent must submit the required Certificate of Completion form and irrigation audit results to the Water Conservation Department. A final inspection will then be scheduled to verify field compliance with the ordinance. A copy of the stamped landscape plans must be onsite during construction. The account will be billed at tier 3 water rates until the project passes the final inspection. A new dedicated irrigation water meter is required. Contact the engineering department to apply for a new water service. Any changes to the stamped approved landscape plans must be approved by the District prior to installation. If you have questions, please call me at (415) 945-1529.
