NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council makes the following findings
related to the Use Permit, Environmental and Design Review Permit, and Vesting Tentative Map:
731
Findinqs for the Use Permit (UP 05-032):
1. The proposed residential use, as conditioned, is in accord and consistent with the San Rafael
General Plan 2020, the purposes of the Zoning Ordinance (Title 14 of the San Rafael Municipal
Code), and the purposes of the High Density Residential HR1 District (Chapter 14.04 of the San
Rafael Municipal Code) in that:
a) The proposed development would result in a gross density of 30 units per acre, excluding the
density bonus units, which would be within the density range permitted under the General Plan
High Density Residential land use designation (15 to 32 dwelling units per gross acre);
b) The maximum height of the proposed building is 38 feet as measured under provisions of the
Zoning Ordinance and California Uniform Building Code, which is consistent with Land Use
Element Exhibit 7 (Building Height Limits) and Land Use Policy LU -13 (Height Bonuses) allowing
a maximum height of 48 feet since the project qualifies for a 12 -foot height bonus for inclusion of
affordable housing units;
c) The proposed high density residential project is located at the intersection of two major
arterial streets, both of which allow and are developed with other high density housing projects,
including the four-story condominium development immediately west of the project site (see
Exhibits 1a, 1b, 1c, 2a and 2b), with available traffic capacity within adopted level -of -service
standards in the General Plan and adequate existing infrastructure to provide utilities, consistent
with Policy LU -8 Density of Residential Development;
d) The proposed project was considered under the City's Traffic Allocation Model and qualified
for an exemption from the Project Selection Process under the provisions of City Council
Resolution 11666 since the project would generate less than 10 peak hour trips, and is therefore
consistent with Land Use Policy LU -3 and LU -3a (Project Selection Process).
e) The high-density design, setbacks and height of the proposed project are consistent with
those of other properties in the Lincoln Avenue and Mission Avenue corridors which includes
several residential structures of 3 to 5 stories including the adjacent structures at 820 Mission (45
feet tall) and 1215 Lincoln (30 feet tall) (see Exhibits la, 1b, 1c), and the proposed project
incorporates numerous transitions in setbacks and heights through the staggering of balconies,
building stepbacks (see Exhibits 2a and 2b), recessing the fifth floor by setbacks of 59 feet from
the Lincoln Avenue property line and 56 feet from the Mission Avenue property line, inclusion of a
rear landscaped courtyard which sets the building face back 30 feet from the northern property
line adjacent to other residential properties, and incorporation of landscaped setbacks of between
15 and 23 feet on Lincoln and between 19 and 28 feet on Mission which exceed the minimum
required setbacks (see Exhibit 3a) and exceed existing street setbacks on numerous existing high
density developments along these streets (see Exhibit 3b) and is therefore consistent with
Housing Policy H-3 (Design That Fits into the Neighborhood Context);
f) The application process included numerous meetings with neighborhood groups and the
Federation of San Rafael Neighborhoods consistent with Housing Policy H-4 (Public Information
and Participation);
g) The proposed redevelopment is the result of City housing inspections by the Building and
Safety Division, Code Enforcement Division and Fire Department in 2002 which identified
numerous violations of housing, building and fire codes and would remove substandard housing
units consistent with Housing Policy H-11 (Housing Conditions and Maintenance), Program H -
11(a) (Apartment Inspection Program) and Neighborhood Policy NH -4 (Improve Property
Maintenance);
h) The proposed project would develop a site within an area identified for appropriate increases
in housing included in Appendix 6 (Housing Element Background) Summary of Potential Housing
Sites, Exhibit BB — Example Downtown Development Sites and is therefore consistent with
Housing Program H -18a (Affordable Housing Sites);
i) The proposed project would be developed at the maximum of the density range for the High
Density Residential land use category and is therefore consistent with Housing Program 18b
(Efficient Use of Housing Sites);
j) The proposed project would provide 6 deed -restricted affordable housing units including 4
priced for sale to low-income households and 2 priced for sale to moderate -income households
which exceeds the minimum requirements of Housing Policy H-19 (Inclusionary Housing
Requirements);
k) The proposed project, by including 6 affordable housing units, proposes to utilize provisions
of the State Density Bonus Law resulting in 7 bonus units, and proposes to utilize the height
bonus allowed in Land Use Policy LU -13, and is therefore consistent with Housing Program H-21
(Density Bonuses and Other Regulatory Incentives for Affordable Housing);
1) The proposed project would locate high density residential along bus corridor on Lincoln
Avenue (GGT Routes 57 and 59) and within one-fifth mile of the Downtown Bettini Transportation
Center (with 19 GGT bus routes) and a potential SMART light rail station, consistent with Housing
Policy H-22 (Infill Near Transit);
m) The proposed project would enhance neighborhood image by replacing two dilapidated
structures in a very visible location at the intersection of Lincoln and Mission Avenues, would
incorporate sensitive transitions in height and setbacks with 8 different roof heights along Mission
and 7 along Lincoln (see Exhibits 2a and 2b), projecting and recessed balconies along both
frontages, recessing the fifth floor by setbacks of 59 feet from the Lincoln Avenue property line
and 56 feet from the Mission Avenue property line, inclusion of a rear landscaped courtyard which
sets the building face back 30 feet from the northern property line adjacent to other residential
properties, and incorporation of landscaped setbacks of between 15 and 23 feet on Lincoln and
between 19 and 28 feet on Mission which exceed the minimum required setbacks (see Exhibit
3a) and existing street setbacks on numerous existing high density developments along these
streets (see Exhibit 3b), would respect privacy and adjacent development by careful placement of
windows along common property lines as considered by the Design Review Board, by recessing
the fifth floor substantially from both Lincoln and Mission Avenues, by providing greater building
setbacks than many other high density residential developments along both street corridors and
by incorporating a rear landscaped courtyard which sets the building face back 30 feet from the
northern property line adjacent to other residential properties, would maintain infrastructure
service levels by not exceeding the traffic levels -of -service as documented in the Final EIR and
would provide adequate parking by meeting the state -mandated parking requirements of the
Density Bonus Law (California Government Code Sections 65915-65918) and is therefore
consistent with Neighborhood Policy NH -2. The project would not preserve existing structures
which have been found in the Final EIR to be historic resources;
n) The project would include a parking area within the landscaped setback for service vehicles
which is not required by the Zoning Ordinance but which was requested by the neighborhood and
required by the Planning Commission, and is therefore consistent with Neighborhood Program
NH -8b (Additional On -Site Parking);
o) Neighborhood Policy NH -116 specifically addresses the Lincoln Avenue corridor and states,
"allow higher density residential development along Lincoln Avenue between Hammondale Court
and Mission Avenue given its good access to public transit. Promote lot consolidations to
achieve higher densities and minimizing ingress/egress to Lincoln Avenue; maintain 15 -foot
setbacks and street trees as corridor amenities to provide a landscaped streetscape. Promote
high-density residential development along Lincoln Avenue, consistent with its existing character
and good access to public transit. Encourage redevelopment of these sites for residential use,
consistent with the surrounding neighborhood. Encourage lot consolidations to achieve more
efficient redevelopment project designs. Encourage underground parking for any new or
substantial redevelopment project along Lincoln Avenue. Design all new projects and substantial
remodels in accordance with Noise Element policies. Require setbacks and other project design
features that visually reduce the wall effect along Lincoln Avenue. Encourage underground
parking in new development to reduce building mass and height." The project meets these
criteria by being a high-density redevelopment project at the intersection of Lincoln and Mission
Avenues, by consolidating two parcels to increase frontage along Lincoln, by including an
underground parking garage and two access points along Lincoln and Mission Avenues, by
reducing access points along Mission Avenue by eliminating six existing driveway curb cuts, by
providing construction methods that will comply with City and State noise standards for
condominium housing, by providing a minimum 15 -foot setback along Lincoln Avenue including
landscaping and street trees, and by incorporating various roof levels, balcony projections and
varied setbacks to reduce building bulk and a "wall effect" along Lincoln Avenue;
p) The project would not preserve two structures determined to be historic resources, but would
preserve and enhance the scale and landscaped character of the City's residential
neighborhoods by eliminating buildings which are presently largely vacant and dilapidated, by
increasing landscaping along both the Lincoln and Mission Avenue frontages compared to the
extremely minimal existing landscaping and by designing the structure to appear as a four-story
building consistent with the heights of other multi -family residential buildings in the vicinity by
recessing the fifth floor substantially, and is therefore partially inconsistent and partially consistent
with Community Design Policy CD -3 (Neighborhoods);
q) The project would not be consistent with Community Design Policy CD -4 (Historic
Resources) since it would remove structures which have been determined to be historic
resources;
r) The project was determined in the Final EIR to not block views of San Rafael Hill from the
Lincoln or Mission Avenue approaches and surrounding sidewalks and is therefore consistent
with Community Design Policy CD -5 (Views);
s) The project would include a landscaped courtyard and community room at the rear of the site
as well as private balconies for all units, complying with size requirements of the Zoning
Ordinance and is therefore consistent with Community Design Policy CD -14 (Recreational
Areas);
t) The project would include six units of affordable housing with priority for occupancy by public
agency employees near Downtown and public buildings and is therefore consistent with
Economic Vitality Policy EV -12 (Workforce Housing);
u) Net traffic generation from the project would not change level of service (LOS) at any of 17
studies intersections, increasing delay during peak hours by between 0.1 and 0.5 seconds and
adding 40 daily trips to Lincoln Avenue which currently carries approximately 19,000 daily
vehicles (a 0.2% increase) and is therefore consistent with Circulation Policy C-5 (Traffic Level of
Service Standards);
v) The project would be required to contribute approximately $ 25,476 in traffic mitigation fees to
be used towards future traffic improvements contained in General Plan 2020 and is therefore in
compliance with Circulation Policy C-7 (Circulation Improvements Funding);
w) The project, with inclusion of a Mission Avenue entrance, would add minimal traffic to Laurel
Place and Nye Street (5 additional trips — a 0.6% increase) and is therefore consistent with
Circulation Policy C-21 (Residential Traffic Calming);
x) The project will provide new street trees along both Lincoln and Mission Avenues and is
therefore consistent with Infrastructure Policy 1-8 (Street Trees);
y) The San Rafael Sanitation District has adequate sewer capacity for the proposed project,
consistent with Infrastructure Policy 1-10 (Sewer Facilities);
z) The project would demolish two structures, both of which were determined by the Final EIR to
be historic resources for purposes of CEQA and one of which is included on the San Rafael
Historical/Architectural Survey with a rating of "good", and would therefore not be in compliance
with Culture and Arts Policy CA -13 (Historic Buildings and Areas);
aa) The project would not be able to incorporate or reuse the existing historic buildings which are
in poor condition and do not lend themselves for use for multi -family housing as determined by
analysis of rehabilitation costs and a financial return analysis included in Attachment 2, Exhibits
1a, 1b and 1c, and is therefore not consistent with Culture and Arts Policy CA -14 (Reuse of
Historic Buildings);
bb) The project site was evaluated for archaeological resources and found unlikely to contain
such resources, consistent with Culture and Arts Policy CA -15 (Protection of Archeological
Resources);
cc) The project provides an interior landscaped courtyard and community room and is therefore
consistent with Parks and Recreation Policy PR -10 (Onsite Recreation Facilities);
dd) The project would be required to contribute to future park facilities by payment of park impact
fees of approximately $21,647, consistent with Parks and Recreation Policy PR -25 (Contributions
by Ownership Residential Development);
ee) The project would be consistent with Safety Policies S-1 (Location of Future Development),
S-3 (Use of Hazard Maps in Development Review), S-4 (Geotechnical Review), S-6 (Seismic
Safety of New Buildings), S-25 (Regional Water Quality Control Board Requirements) and S-32
(Safety Review) by being proposed on a site not subject to flooding or landslides and located in
an area currently served by emergency personnel. The project would be required to comply with
provisions of the California Building Code, preparation of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention
Plan, and would be reviewed by City Police and Fire personnel. A geotechnical investigation was
prepared for the project and determined that the site is suitable for the proposed project, and is
subject to conditions of approval;
ff) The project would be consistent with the purposes of the Zoning Ordinance, as stated in
Section 14.01.030 of the Zoning Ordinance, by providing a high-density multi -family development
within the density range of the High Density Residential (HR1) District in an area of similar
zoning, by complying with the City's traffic level -of -service standards, by being located in an area
with existing and adequate infrastructure including roads, utilities, emergency services, and
transit, by complying with provisions of the California Building Code, by complying with the
policies of General Plan 2020 as documented above, by locating high-density housing in close
proximity to high-density jobs in the Downtown, by providing additional ownership and affordable
housing in close proximity to jobs, by providing an underground parking garage with only two
entrance points which were found to provide adequate site distance and minimal traffic impacts,
by providing off-street parking for service vehicles, by providing varied and greater landscaped
setbacks along the Lincoln and Mission Avenue corridors than required by the HR1 District (see
Exhibit 3a), by incorporating varied roof heights and building stepbacks to reduce the appearance
of building bulk (see Exhibits 2a and 2b), and by its review which included numerous
neighborhood meetings and public hearings before the Design Review Board, Planning
Commission and City Council. The project would not be consistent with the purpose of
preserving historic resources; and
gg) The project would be consistent with the purposes of the High Density Residential (HR1)
District, as stated in Section 14.04.010 of the Zoning Ordinance by being in compliance with the
density and other development regulations of this District, by providing high-density housing in a
neighborhood of higher but varied densities, by contributing to existing development patterns and
varied design character in the area, by being located on a site with no environmental constraints
such as flooding, landslides, or geotechnical problems and with adequate infrastructure, and by
including a landscaped courtyard and community room for residents.
2. The proposed project, as conditioned, would not be detrimental to the public health, safety or
welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity, or to the general
welfare of the city in that a Final Environmental Impact Report has been prepared and adopted
for the project pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act which found
only one significant unavoidable impact for which the City Council has found acceptable through
adoption of findings of overriding consideration, through its consistency with the policies and
programs of General Plan 2020 as documented above, due to its incorporation of design features
to minimize the impacts of building mass as documented in Findings 1(e), 1(m), 1(n), 1(0) and
1(s) above and since the project design was reviewed by the Design Review Board and the
Planning Commission and recommended for approval.
3. The proposed project complies with all regulations contained in the Zoning Ordinance including
maximum height, building setbacks, landscaping, recreational space, affordable housing, and
complies with mandatory parking maximums of California Government Code Sections 65915-
65918.
Findings for the Environmental and Design Review Permit IED 00-11):
1. The proposed project is in accord with the San Rafael General Plan 2020 as documented in Use
Permit Finding 1 above.
2. The proposed project is consistent with the objectives and criteria of the Zoning Ordinance as
documented in Use Permit Finding 1 above.
3. The proposed project is consistent with the purposes of Chapter 14.25 of the Zoning Ordinance
(Environmental and Design Review) in that:
a) The project maintains a proper balance between development and the natural environment
by redeveloping two sites which have been fully developed for decades and in an urbanized
setting;
b) The project maintains and improves the quality of, and relationship between, development
and the surrounding area to contribute to the attractiveness of the city, preserves balance and
harmony within neighborhoods, promotes design excellence and minimizes impacts on adjacent
residences, and is designed to be compatible with the existing neighborhood by locating a high-
density residential development in an area with existing high-density development as shown on
Exhibits 1a, 1b and 1c, by providing landscaped setbacks along Lincoln and Mission Avenues
which equal or exceed those of other high-density residential projects in the vicinity as shown on
Exhibits 3a and 3b, by replacing dilapidated existing structures, by incorporating varied roof
heights and building stepbacks to reduce the appearance of building mass as shown on Exhibits
2a and 2b, by incorporating a Mission design style of which there are numerous examples in the
surrounding area, and by incorporating substantial detailing to provide quality architecture; and
c) The project, by incorporation of building stepbacks would preserve views of San Rafael Hill
from surrounding streets and sidewalks as documented in the Final EIR.
4. The project design is consistent with the San Rafael Design Guidelines (November, 2004) in that
the building design incorporates extensive fagade articulation, varied setbacks (see Exhibit 3a),
and building stepbacks to help transition the building into the existing neighborhood and minimize
apparent height differences (see Exhibits 2a and 2b); roof equipment is screened and roof vents
are minimized; the building entry is highlighted with an entry feature, corner plaza and tower
element; window proportions and placement were analyzed by the Design Review Board and
found appropriate; garage entries are limited and parking is not visible in the subterranean
garage; the garage layout was found to be appropriate by the City Traffic Engineer; the street
yards are well landscaped with building setbacks that exceed the minimum requirements and will
enhance the quality of the site compared with the existing site character; lighting will be minimal
and shielded; long wall lengths are minimized by frequent building articulation and varied
setbacks and rooflines; retaining walls are landscaped; street trees will be provided; and the
building is oriented towards the street with ground floor units and a prominent entry plaza and
entry feature at the focal corner of Mission and Lincoln Avenues.
5. The project design, as conditioned, minimizes environmental impacts as documented in the Final
EIR, which determined that significant environmental impacts either did not exist or could be
minimized through conditions of approval to a level of insignificance, with the exception of the
loss of historic structures.
6. The project design will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, nor materially
injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity as documented in Use Permit Finding 2
above.
Findinas for the Vesting Tentative Map (ED 00-11):
1. As proposed and conditioned, the Vesting Tentative Map, along with the accompanying
improvements would comply with the requirements of the San Rafael Subdivision Ordinance
(Title 15 of the San Rafael Municipal Code), including minimum lot size, and the provisions of the
State Subdivision Map Act, and the map and improvements would satisfy the required findings
cited below.
2. As proposed and conditioned, the proposed subdivision, together with its design and
improvements is consistent with the objectives, goals and policies of the San Rafael General

supporting the suitability of the site for the proposed development with the exception of the
proposed demolition of structures found to be historic resources, adequate services,
infrastructure and utility systems are available to serve the proposed development, adequate
provisions are included for required parking, landscape improvements and recreational facilities
for residents, and the project design was reviewed by the Design Review Board and the Planning
Commission and recommended for approval.
4. As proposed and conditioned, the proposed subdivision would not conflict with any existing or
required easements.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council approves the Use Permit,
Environmental and Design Review Permit and the Vesting Tentative Map subject to the following
conditions:
Conditions of Approval:
Mitigation Measures
1. The following controls shall be implemented during demolition:
• Water during demolition of structures and break-up of pavement to control dust generation;
• Cover all trucks hauling demolition debris from the site; and
• Use dust -proof chutes to load debris into trucks whenever feasible.
2. The following controls shall be implemented at all construction sites:
• Water all active construction areas at least twice daily and more often during windy periods; active
areas adjacent to existing land uses shall be kept damp at all times, or shall be treated with non-
toxic stabilizers to control dust;
• Cover all trucks hauling soil, sand, and other loose materials or require all trucks to maintain at least
2 feet of freeboard;
• Pave, apply water three times daily, or apply (non-toxic) soil stabilizers on all unpaved access roads,
parking areas, and staging areas at construction sites;
• Sweep daily (with water sweepers) all paved access roads, parking areas, and staging areas at
construction sites; water sweepers shall vacuum up excess water to avoid runoff -related impacts to
water quality;
• Sweep streets daily (with water sweepers) if visible soil material is carried onto adjacent public
streets;
• Apply non-toxic soil stabilizers to inactive construction areas;
• Enclose, cover, water twice daily, or apply non-toxic soil binders to exposed stockpiles (dirt, sand,
etc.);
• Limit traffic speeds on unpaved roads to 15 mph;
• Install sandbags or other erosion control measures to prevent silt runoff to public roadways;
• Replant vegetation in disturbed areas as quickly as possible.
• Install base rock at entryways for all exiting trucks, and wash off the tires or tracks of all trucks and
equipment in designated areas before leaving the site; and
• Suspend excavation and grading activity when winds (instantaneous gusts) exceed 25 mph.
3. Forced -air mechanical ventilation systems shall be included in the design so that a habitable indoor
environment can be maintained if windows must be closed to meet the indoor standard be provided
for units 1-8, 13-22 and 27-36.
4. The project applicant shall obtain a permit, if needed, to exceed the City's maximum allowable
construction noise level of 90 dBA. The on-site complaint and enforcement manager shall have and
be trained in the use of a sound meter and shall monitor construction noise to assure that levels do
not exceed 90 dBA in the method prescribed by the San Rafael Noise Ordinance.
5. All construction and grading activities shall conform to the hours listed in section 8.13.050 part A of
the City's Noise Ordinance, with the exception of work not being allowed on Saturdays. Therefore, all
noise generating construction activities shall be limited to between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00
p.m. Monday through Friday. Construction shall not occur on Saturdays, Sundays or holidays.
6. To reduce daytime noise impacts due to construction, to the maximum feasible extent, the City shall
require the applicant to develop a site-specific noise reduction program, subject to City review and
approval, which includes the following measures:
• Signs shall be posted describing the permitted hours of construction in a conspicuous location near
the property entrance legible from the edge of the roadway. The exact wording of the sign is
prescribed by the City's Noise Ordinance.
• An on-site complaint and enforcement manager shall be designated to respond to and track
complaints.
• A pre -construction meeting shall be held with the job inspectors and the general contractor/on-site
project manager to confirm that noise mitigation and practices are completed prior to the issuance
of a building permit (including construction hours, neighborhood notification, posted signs, etc.).
• Equipment and trucks used for project construction shall utilize the best available noise control
techniques (e.g., improved mufflers, equipment redesign, use of intake silencers, ducts, engine
enclosures, and acoustically attenuating shields or shrouds, wherever feasible).
• Impact tools (e.g., jack hammers, pavement breakers, and rock drills) used for project construction
shall be hydraulically or electrically powered wherever possible to avoid noise associated with
compressed -air exhaust from pneumatically powered tools. However, where use of pneumatic tools
is unavoidable, an exhaust muffler on the compressed -air exhaust shall be used. Quieter
procedures shall be used, such as drills rather than impact equipment, whenever feasible.
• Stationary noise sources shall be located as far from the adjacent residences as possible, and they
shall be muffled and enclosed within temporary sheds, or insulation barriers or other measures
shall be incorporated to the extent feasible.
7. The buildings at 1203 Lincoln Avenue shall be documented to Historic American Buildings Survey
(HABS) Level 3 standards, according to the Outline Format described in the Historic American
Buildings Survey Guidelines for Preparing Written Historical Descriptive Data. Photographic
documentation shall follow the Photographic Specifications — Historic American Building Survey,
including 15 to 20 archival quality large -format photographs of the exterior and interior of the building
and its architectural elements. Construction techniques and architectural details shall be documented,
especially noting the measurements of structural members, hardware, and other features that tie the
architectural elements to a specific date. A copy of the documentation, with original photo negatives
and prints, shall be placed in a historical archive or history collection accessible to the general public.
Additionally, the developer shall fund an exhibit of the historical survey at the Marin Historical Society,
the Anne T. Kent California Room at the Marin County Library Civic Center Branch. Five copies of the
documentation with archival photographs shall be produced for distribution to local and regional
repositories. One copy shall be provided to the Northwest Information Center of the California
Historical Resources Information System, Sonoma State University, Rohnert Park, California.
8. The applicant/developer shall advertise the opportunity to purchase and relocate the residential
structure within the City of San Rafael. Said advertisement shall run in the Marin Independent Journal
for at least 30 days.
9. If the building is not relocated, the home at 1211 Lincoln Avenue shall be documented to Historic
American Buildings Survey (NABS) Level 3 standards, according to the Outline Format described in
the Historic American Buildings Survey Guidelines for Preparing Written Historical Descriptive Data.
Photographic documentation shall follow the Photographic Specifications — Historic American Building
Survey, including 15-20 archival quality large -format photographs of the exterior and interior of the
building and its architectural elements. Construction techniques and architectural details shall be
documented, especially noting the measurements of structural members, hardware, and other
features that tie the architectural elements to a specific date. A copy of the documentation, with
original photo negatives and prints, shall be placed in a historical archive or history collection
accessible to the general public.
10. If prehistoric or historical archaeological materials are encountered during project construction, all
work within 25 feet of the discovery shall be redirected and a qualified archaeologist contacted to
evaluate the finds and make recommendations. Disturbance to resource should be avoided to
minimize adverse effects. If such deposits cannot be avoided, they shall be evaluated for their
eligibility for listing on the California Register (i.e., it shall be determined whether they qualify as
historical or unique archaeological resources under CEQA). If the deposits are not eligible, further
avoidance is not necessary. If the deposits are eligible, and avoidance is not feasible, the adverse
effects shall be mitigated. Upon completion of an archaeological assessment, a report shall be
prepared documenting the methods, results and recommendations. Findings of the report shall be
submitted to TWM Architects and Planners, the City of San Rafael and the Northwest Information
Center (NWIC).
11. Should human remains be encountered by project activities, work within 25 feet of the discovery shall
be redirected and the County Coroner notified immediately. If the County Coroner determines the
human remains are of Native American origin, the Coroner shall notify the Native American Heritage
Commission (NAHC) within 24 hours of this identification, and a qualified archaeologist shall be
contacted to evaluate the situation. The NAHC shall identify the person or persons it believes to be
the most likely descended (MLD) to inspect the site and provide recommendations for the proper
treatment of the remains and associated grave goods. Upon completion of such analysis and/or
recovery, the archaeologist shall prepare a report documenting the methods and results of the
investigation and provide recommendations for the treatment of the human remains and any
associated cultural materials, as appropriate and in coordination with the recommendations for the
proper treatment of the remains and associated grave goods. This report shall be submitted to the
City, the project applicant, and the NWIC.
12. If paleontological resources are encountered during project activities, all work within 25 feet of the
discovery shall be redirected until a qualified paleontologist has evaluated the discoveries, prepared a
fossil locality form documenting the discovery, and made recommendations regarding the treatment
of the resources. If the paleontological resources are found to be significant, adverse effects to such
resources shall be avoided by project activities. If project activities cannot avoid the resources,
adverse effects shall be mitigated. At a minimum, mitigation shall include data recovery and analysis,
preparation of a data recovery report or other reports as appropriate, and donating the fossil material
recovered to a paleontological repository, such as the University of California Museum of
Paleontology (UCMP). Mitigation may also include monitoring of project -related ground -disturbance.
Upon completion of project activities, a report that documents the methods and findings of the
mitigation shall be prepared and copies shall be submitted to the appropriate city agencies, and to the
repository to which fossils were accessioned.
13. Specific lighting proposals shall be reviewed and approved by the City prior to installation. All exterior
lighting shall be shielded down. Following issuance of a certificate of occupancy, all exterior lighting
shall be subject to a 30 -day lighting level review by Planning Division staff to minimize lighting and
glare off-site and ensure compatibility with the surrounding area.
