STATUS REPORT RE PARKING STANDARDS OUTSIDE THE DOWNTOWN AREA (P1) - File 11-8 Councilmember Russom stated his concerns are that staff recommended an additional year to look at the current standards and evaluate the effectiveness on the parking situation, and asked, if the standards are inadequate, within a year will we have gone so far with develop- ment and the associated parking that we might find ourselves in trouble? Planning Director Moore replied that on an informal basis, new developments are monitored to see how conditions of approval are being complied with and noted no difficulties with the parking standards. Should there be parking problems, it will be brought back to the Council sooner than one year. Councilmember Breiner indicated that she supports an interim report on a 6 -month basis so as to have Council brought up to date with the parking situation. Council approved staff recommendation postponing formal review of the standards for an additional year to allow completion of a sufficient number of projects for an adequate evaluation of the Standards' effectiveness, to include a 6 -month interim report, without motion. 11. CLAIM FOR DAMAGES - PACIFIC GAS & ELECTRIC COMPANY - File 3-1-946 (PW) Mayor Mulryan indicated that this was a situation where a contractor was on the job, and asked why the City was included in this claim even though there was a contractor present. Assistant City Manager Nicolai stated that emergency repair work being done on Canal Street was being monitored by the City staff. Councilmember Nave moved and Councilmember Breiner seconded, to deny the claim.

AUTHORIZATION TO CALL FOR BIDS FOR RESTORATION OF SECOND FLOOR READING ROOM (BRIDE'S ROOM) AT FALKIRK (Lib/Cult.Aff.) - File 4-1-381 Mayor Mulryan asked for a further explanation concerning restoration of the Bride's Room. Director of Library/Cultural Affairs Stratford reported that at a previous Council meeting, $13,400 was appropriated for restoration of the house by the pool, having preliminary work done, but in having an architect look at the structure, it was determined that it was not feasible to restore that structure. Permission was granted from the San Francisco Foundation to use funds that they had granted to a room called the "reading room". The future use of the room is presently open. The restoration would give the widest range of options for that room and the Cultural Affairs Commission has endorsed this project. Councilmember Breiner moved and Councilmember Frugoli seconded, to authorize staff, by motion, to seek competitive bids for restoration of the second -floor reading room (Bride's Room) at Falkirk.

AGREEMENT RE TEMPORARY PLACEMENT OF WORK -OF -ART ON THE FALKIRK GROUNDS - File 4-10-191 x 9-2-24 Mayor Mulryan asked if there was a sketch available of the project. Director of Library/Cultural Affairs Stratford suggested that this item be continued to the meeting of March 4th so a sketch could be presented then, and Council agreed. 18. AWARD OF BIDS FOR: SIX (6) USED AUTOMOBILES - TWO (2) MOTORCYCLES FOR POLICE SERVICE AND ONE (1) THREE WHEELED VEHICLE FOR METER ENFORCEMENT SERVICE (CM) - File 4-2-195 x 9-3-80 Council asked for clarification on the figure of $70,396 which was explained by Administrative Assistant Alan Harry, indicating two additional vehicles were being requested, one for the Recreation Department and one for Redevelopment Agency staff. Also, it was indicated to Council that records are kept on car repairs, and that the old vehicles that are not needed are auctioned. RESOLUTION NO. 7045 - RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF ONE (1) THREE WHEELED PARKING SERVICE VEHICLE; TWO (2) MOTORCYCLES FOR POLICE TRAFFIC SERVICE; FIVE (5) FOUR DOOR SEDANS FOR GENERAL STAFF SERVICE; TWO (2) FOUR DOOR SEDANS FOR POLICE UNDERCOVER SERVICE; ONE (1) FOUR DOOR STATION WAGON FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT STAFF SERVICE; UTILIZING EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT FUNDS.

PUBLIC HEARING - TS80-10(b) - APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION'S APPROVAL OF TIME EXTENSION FOR LOCH LOMOND UNIT 10, 30 -LOT SUB- DIVISION; LAS CASAS AVENUE AND INVERNESS DRIVE; FERNLEA PROPERTIES, INC., OWNER; OBERKAMPER & ASSOCIATES, REP.; LOCH LOMOND HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION, APPELLANT; AP 186-031-02 & 06 AND 186-520-17 & 18 (P1) - File 5-1-297 x 10-6 Mayor Mulryan opened the public hearing. Planning Director Moore gave a detailed report on the appeal by the Loch Lomond Homeowner's Association of the January 15, 1985, Planning Commission conditional approval of a 1-1/2 year extension for this subdivision, a 30 lot, single family residential subdivision north of the Villa Real and Loch Lomond neighborhoods. She noted a tentative map was approved by the Planning Commission in July 1981 and the time extension to the subdivision was granted after extensive public input with meetings through the Planning Commission and one neighborhood meeting. On January 30, 1985, the Loch Lomond Homeowners Association appealed the Planning Commission's decision contending that the subdivision is not consistent with Basic Policy #7 of the San Rafael General Plan, regarding the environmental quality. Also, the homeowners association does not consider the site to be suitable for this type of density and requests a number of additional conditions be incorporated into any approval of the time extension. Ms. Moore noted there is no substantial evidence by the homeowners association proving that the project has the potential to be environ- mentally degrading or inconsistent with the General Plan or that the site is not suitable for the type and the density of development that is proposed for this site. Regarding the Association's claim that the project is in violation of the Subdivision Map Act because the map is not consistent with the City's General Plan, Ms. Moore noted that the residential usage and the dedication of over 50% of property in open space is consistent with the Residential and Open Space Review Area designation in the General Plan. Ms. Moore stated that staff review of the appeal letter and correspondence received shows no evidence or qualified testimony indicating that the studies and conditions of approval relied on and imposed by the Planning Commission are in error or deficient. Mayor Mulryan asked Ms. Moore to summarize the homeowners associ- ation's 13 points. Ms. Moore noted the homeowners association references an internal Public Works Department memo which they claim indicates that the Department is aware that the downstream system is inadequate to handle runoff from this project. his. Moore stated that memo related to a preliminary drainage study submitted at the time the subdivision was applied for in 1981, and substantial work was done in 1984, taking into account the peak storm characteristics the City had to deal with in the early 19801s. Also, the Planning Commission requested that the 1984 drainage analysis be reviewed by an impartial third party expert, Mr. Dominic Selmi, who concluded, "the preceding recommendations for Loch Lomond Unit 10 should reduce existing downstream drainage problems. The street improvement proposed for Unit 10 will also have a beneficial effect by intercepting surface runoff and erosion. The repair of slides by the subdivider will further reduce potential volume of earth carried by the runoff." Ms. Moore stated the applicants contend that the staff report does not address impacts of landslides and drainage problems and asked that certain conditions in the 1979 Herzog report be imposed on the project. Ms. Moore stated there are other conditions of approval that staff recommended and the Planning Commission imposed that go further than the 1979 Herzog report. Regarding the appellants' demand for the repair of all landslides on and off-site, Ms. Moore indicated that in the City's hazardous lands policy, landslides are studied and those posing any threats to the proposed development or other properties must be repaired prior to development. SRCC MINUTES (Regular) 2/19/85 Page 5 SRCC MINUTES (RE lar) 2/19/85 Page 6 The homeowners association also calls for a soils and geologic analysis of the melange and fault area above the site. Ms. Moore stated analysis of these areas will be performed as part of the final plan review. Regarding appellants' request for special engineering of swimming pools in the slide areas, Ms. Moore noted this is standard operations procedure in the Public Works Department in an area such as this. Ms. Moore stated it is not the routine of the City to do a financial study to determine the cost to the City relative to income from proposed development. Ms. Moore noted the other requests include the improvement of the storm drainage system, a reworking of the channels servicing Loch Lomond, removal of landslide material and debris from these channels, supporting earth and banks along the swales to prevent further erosion, and major improvements to the neighborhood drainage system. All the City can legally require, is that this subdivision not adversely affect the downstream situations. Appellants also are asking for regular maintenance and repairs to be established and budgeted for the storm drainage which is already in the City's normal operating budget; in fact, for this fiscal year 1984/85, there is a Revenue Sharing project that is entitled "Debris Removal From Silting Basins", of which funds will be extended to this neighborhood and others. Ms. Moore stated the Association is also asking for redistribution of inflows to the Las Casas and Inverness storm basins although such a diversion from one drainage basin to another is not consistent with drainage basin law. Appellants are also concerned about defoliation of the slopes. Ms. Moore concluded that there is no substantiating evidence from the homeowners association appeal which proves this project to be environ- mentally degrading, or the property being physically unsuitable for the type of development that has been approved. Ms. Moore stated that this has been one of the most rigorously reviewed subdivisions, which has been reviewed thoroughly as a result of the benefit of knowledge gained from the storms in the early 1980's. The president of the Loch Lomond Homeowners Association, Marianne A. Shaw, stated that they were appealing the Planning Commission's tentative map because of their concerns with landslides and storm water drainage system, that they feel were not sufficiently addressed through the review process or incorporated into the conditions of approval. Mrs. Shaw stated that the Planning Department staff have answered the concerns of the association that satisfied their needs as far as their review process is concerned, but they have not received adequate statements or guarantees from the Planning Depart- ment or the developers concerning two major aspects, that of land- slides and the storm water drainage system existing in Loch Lomond. Mrs. Shaw reminded Council of a news article in the Independent Journal dated January 9, 1982, with headlines, "The Great Storm". Mrs. Shaw continued by referring to the Herzog Report dated October 14, 1979, a report from Cooper and Clark Engineers and a report from Oberkamper and Associates, representatives of the developers of the subdivision in question, indicating that these documents support and provide evidence that landslides and drainage on this site have not been answered adequately. A map furnished by the Planning Department dated 1983 was shown and explained by Mrs. Shaw on where the lots are located, and the landslide and drainage areas. Mrs. Shaw called upon Mr. Salem Rice, who presented a geotechnical letter he wrote and submitted to Council which had not been given to the Planning Department, and explained some of the significant information contained in the Herzog report, the Cooper and Clark report and subsequent reports. SRCC MINUTES (Regular) 2/19/85 Page 6 SRCC MINUTES (Re6alar) 2/19/85 Page 7 Mayor Mulryan informed Mrs. Shaw, that producing a letter at this point may be delaying any action on the hearing should the informa- tion contained in the letter need further study by the Planning Department. Mr. Salem Rice at this point, clarified that he did not have a technical report, but a letter recently written when he was contacted by the Loch Lomond Homeowners Association. Mr. Rice stated that his name was used in the soils report implying that he concurred with the findings in that report and that the first time he had known about it was when he was contacted by Mrs. Shaw. Mr. Rice stated that he is a professional geologist, licensed by the State of California, and has mapped the geology of San Rafael and prepared maps showing slopes for land use planning purposes which were submitted in 1976 to the City. Mr. Rice's main concern is that his name is being used in reference to the landslide, a small portion of which is exposed in the southeast corner of the map in which a major landslide mass hangs down into areas that have been built over on flatter grounds. The Herzog report of October 24, 1979 came to the conclusion that this deposit is safe and feasible to develop and this report was submitted to Cooper and Clark, who were the City's geotechnical review consultant. Cooper and Clark disagreed with the Herzog's report, and stated that, "In our opinion, construction on this landslide debris should be preceded by detailed geologic soil investigation oriented toward further evaluation of potential hazards. If the data developed does not unequivocably indicate that the area is safe, then residential construction should not be contemplated." Mr. Rice agreed with that recommendation. He indicated he finds no evidence in a subsequent report and communications that the recom- mended investigation was done. Mr. Rice noted in that particular area, there are six lots which are entirely on this mass and portions of lots 7, 8, 9 and 10 are also on the mass. Mayor Mulryan asked Mr. Rice if he had reviewed the conditions that have been imposed by the Planning Commission and recommended to Council, and Mr. Rice stated he had. He added that Mr. Herzog avoids calling this area a landslide but calls for special engineering foundation construction and flexible pipe connections for structures. Mr. Rice continued to state that this is an old landslide that is many decades old and that storm activity in 1982 and 1983 reactivated other landslides. Mayor Mulryan asked Mr. Rice if the measures recommended by the staff and Planning Commission are inadequate, and Mr. Rice stated that regarding the landslide, the staff does not call for correction of it by moving the mass out and other measures needed. Planning Director Moore asked Mr. Rice if this recommendation was contained in his letter for review by the City's Geotechnical Review Board. Mr. Rice indicated it was not. However, he did recommend that the City follow its geotechnical review consultant's recom- mendation, which has not been done. Ms. Moore asked Mr. Rice if he had reviewed Cooper and Clark's correspondence of 1984 when staff called for additional information and update, and Mr. Rice indicated he had not. Ms. Moore added that tonight was a difficult time to respond to Mr. Rice's comments because staff has no idea which materials Mr. Rice relied on in coming to the conclusions he has made. Mayor Mulryan asked Ms. Moore if lots 1 to 11 had or had not been identified as a landslide area and adequate steps taken to safeguard the area. Ms. Moore stated she is not qualified to answer that question, but was familiar with what the geotechnical review had gone through and conclusions reached by Cooper and Clark of the City's Geotechnical Review Board. In 1984, they indicated that in their opinion the proposed development is geologically feasible, making specific recommendations that grading, drainage and foundation recommendations contained in the Herzog report are normally required for hillside development, and that they needed to review final grading plans, and those are conditions of approval on the project. SRCC MINUTES (Regular) 2/19/85 Page 7 SRCC MINUTES (R, alar) 2/19/85 Page 8 Councilmember Russom asked Mr. Rice for clarification if the Cooper and Clark report supersedes the Herzog report in this area and is more accurate geologically and should be the controlling report. Mr. Rice indicated he could not answer without seeing the 1984 report. Mr. Rice continued to state that Cooper and Clark did not do detailed geologic studies, but reviewed the Herzog report. He indicated he assumes that they had also looked at his (Mr. Rice's) map. He said the City should follow the recommendations made by Cooper and Clark. Councilmember Breiner asked Mr. Rice to explain what "detailed analysis" means. Mr. Rice replied this would including boring trenches to establish the thickness of deposit, its potential stability, and water level within it. Councilmember Breiner asked Mr. Rice if he had looked at lots 23 and 24, and Mr. Rice indicated he had not. Mrs. Shaw continued by reiterating what Mr. Rice had said, and spoke on Basic Policy #7 on public and private proposals that might alter environment and landslides. The San Rafael General Plan states that public agencies have a clear mandate to protect the public from injury and death and preventing property damage. They look at the conditions of approval for protection and find nothing listed to protect the residents against problems resulting from landslides triggered in potentially unstable areas. Mrs. Shaw quoted from the Herzog report that "There is an inherent risk of instability associated with all hillside construction. In addition, subsurface conditions are complex and may differ from those indicated by surface features and those encountered as the test hole locations. There- fore, we are unable to guarantee the stability of any hillside construction. For houses constructed on hillsides, we recommend that mudflow and earthquake insurance be obtained." Mrs. Shaw quoted a final piece of advice from the Herzog report: "Soils conditions and standards of practice change. Therefore, we should be consulted to update this report if construction is not performed within 18 months." This report was done in October 1979. The report also mentions that periodic maintenance be required. She mentioned also the storm water drainage system serving the Loch Lomond and Villa Real neighborhoods. Mrs. Sonia Dietz of 127 Kinross showed pictures of damages to her backyard done during the storms in 1982. Mayor Mulryan called upon the developers' representative. Mr. John Leahy, co -developer of the project with Mr. Robert Ham. Mr. Leahy stated that they feel that the suggestions made by the Planning Department benefited the total plan. He stated that they had developed the Loch Lomond Highlands 30 years ago. From the stand- point of the developers, they worked on this project a long period of time and have employed professionals of top reputation who have worked thoroughly with the planning staff and the public works staff and independent consultants brought into the project, and after many hours of meetings have worked out solutions to all the problems they feel exist on the project. Mr. Leahy did not go into the issues raised but did say however, that it is difficult for a layperson to address these issues, particularly when lengthy reports are subjected to extractions out of context, ignoring the final conclusions. Further, the builder of the project, Mr. Robert Ham has built in Marin for 20 years. As to the appeal, to Mr. Leahy's knowledge, all the questions raised have technical merit, have been considered and are included in the constraints and requirements for the future development. Mr. Lee Oberkamper, Civil Engineer for the development, spoke on the drainage system and the facilities that will be constructed in con- junction with the development that will provide improvement with the downstream conditions, protecting the downstream property owners. Mr. Dave Canal from Cooper Engineers (formerly Cooper & Clark) stated that their capacity in this project is to review Herzog's original report and also they are now acting as geotechnical consultants to the developer. They concur with the statements Mr. Rice mentioned that the geologic consultants to the developer. They concur with the statements Mr. Rice mentioned that the geologic conditions have been identified at the site, and further study of the major landslide are needs to be done. SRCC MINUTES (Regular) 2/19/85 Page 8 SRCC MINUTES (RL alar) 2/19/85 Page 9 Mayor Mulryan clarified with Mr. Canal that in earlier documentation from Cooper Engineers there is a slide area and that further actual borings should be taken, and Mr. Canal agreed. Ms. Moore stated that part of what was discussed was a matter of timing of the studies required, and staff noted that City has routinely recommended that these are detailed, expensive studies done after approval of the tentative map, prior to approval of the final map. Mayor Mulryan stated that what he was hearing from the public is that there is a slide area that may have gotten lost in the shuffle, and further testing should be made before a house is designed in the areas 1 through 11. Public Works Director Bernardi informed Mayor Mulryan that this level of detail will be provided. Mr. Canal summarized stating that the studies done to date identified potential geological hazards and conditions of the site and they feel that those conditions have been identified, and changes in lot locations and building areas have been made by the developer based on input of a geologic nature. Further studies that need to be done should be done after the final map has been prepared. Mayor Mulryan asked Mr. Canal what specificity would the final map entail. One of the concerns raised is how can you locate a house before you know the dangers? Mr. Canal replied that the possible dangers have been identified, and the developers are not allowed to develop the site without doing further studies, and input has to be made on each step along the way. Councilmember Breiner asked City Attorney Ragghianti, that if a tentative map is approved, is the final map also approved and can major changes be made between the tentative and final maps? Mr. Ragghianti stated that major changes are not to be made and that the approval of the final map is administerial act. He said if the final map purports with the conditions for approval specified in the tentative map, it must be approved. Public Works Director Bernardi explained that the process that occurs is that the General Plan calls for the investigation of various items of information. Once the tentative map is approved, the developer has the responsibility to prepare plans and specifications to whatever studies are necessary to address the conditions of approval. The final map is not brought back to the City Council until all the conditions of approval are met. Mayor Mulryan asked Mr. Bernardi what would be included in the preliminary map? Mr. Bernardi replied that it deals with grading, construction of the roadways, the mitigation of the drainage con- cerns, the repair of the slides, all the specific details. Mayor Mulryan then asked if the borings and trenchings to evaluate the depth and nature of the slides can logically be done before any part of the studies needed to get to that point of the tentative map? Mr. Bernardi stated it could be done that way if Council preferred. Councilmember Frugoli stated that he would like to see a copy of the Herzog report made in 1979 before the storms. Councilmember Russom asked if staff and the Planning Commission were comfortable with the wording from Cooper and Clark, and Mr. Bernardi responded that rewording should be done. Mr. Michael Smith of 99 Junipero Serra said that he had not come to the meeting to object to the area until he heard what was said tonight. At the last Planning Commission meeting, one more lot was added and it moved the house site closer to his home. Mr. Smith asked staff to analyze this in relationship to his property, and wants the original lot to be put back. Mr. Frank Batat of 62 Lochinvar Road stated he suffered greatly during the storms and maintenance needs to be done; he asked that the City have an on-going plan to take care of these problems. Mayor Mulryan asked that the Public Works Department provide a schedule for cleanup, including cost. SRCC MINUTES (Regular) 2/19/85 Page 9 SRCC MINUTES (Regular) 2/19/85 Page 10 Mr. John Burns of 125 Kinross stated that during a minimum of 10 to 12 winters the culvert has overflowed causing a real problem. Mayor Mulryan closed the public hearing. Council referred this item back to staff without motion and asked that they have a report submitted at another public hearing with the following items reviewed (hearing to be re -noticed): 1. The order of the studies should be reviewed by the Geotechnical Review Board and Council to review the Herzog reports, with assurance that the Geotechnical Review Board has reviewed the Herzog reports also. 2. Council asked to have maps submitted to them showing any existing springs on the site. 3. Any situations in this area that are parallel to problems caused in drainage swale in the Glenwood area where a house was destroyed. 4. Wants to know what the maintenance of drainage facilities will cost and information on the current schedule of maintenance of drainage facilities. 5. Wants a detailed response on the wording concerning lots 23 and 24. 6. More explanation of what is to be done on the off-site slides re borings and further testing. 7. Have Dominic Selmi review the issues raised and to attend the next hearing. 8. If the City is relying on the conditions from Cooper & Clark dealing with corrections on the major slide areas, these con- ditions are to refer to specific remedial actions, rather than referring to a report, and then a report is to be made spelling out steps to be taken. 9. These lots should be looked at in terms of construction, grading and site preparation, in chronological order. 10. Conditions (Cooper and Clark) to be reworded rather than referring to the report. 21. REPORT ON NOISE COMPLAINTS RE T&T BAR & GRILL, 1325 FOURTH STREET (CM) - File 13-9 Assistant City Manager Nicolai stated that this was a followup to a complaint heard at the meeting of February 4, 1985, concerning the operation of T&T Bar & Grill. The Police Department received no complaints in the month of December, but in January, 25 calls for service were received which were directly related to T&T's for either noise or drunk subjects in the street. Due to the zoning in this area, the current business does not require a use permit which would allow the City to set specific restrictions. Even though there are residents in this area, it is not zoned as a residential district. Ms. Nicolai stated she had contacted Mr. Mel Figone of the State Alcohol Beverage Control who informed her that they have worked closely with the owners who have agreed to use smaller speakers and improve the soundproofing. The owners also have a doorman who watches the patrons as they leave the establishment to ensure that they do not loiter outside. A.B.C. is monitoring the area watching the streets to see if they can identify related activity to T&T. A.B.C. is also working closely with the San Rafael Police Department, and will come back to staff when they have a conclusion. Councilmember Russom asked staff what is the City's recourse to address a public nuisance legally in abating something like this? City Attorney Ragghianti responded by saying that if there was a use permit (of which there is none) and if the circumstances rose to a SRCC MINUTES (Regular) 2/19/85 Page 10 SRCC MINUTES (Re .alar) 2/19/85 Page 11 level of a public nuisance, the City would have the right to a public hearing order to show cause as to why a public nuisance ought not to be declared to exist, to abate it either through civil proceedings authorized by the Council or criminal proceedings authorized by the Council. Mayor Mulryan asked Mr. Ragghianti about the jurisdiction of the A.B.C. Mr. Ragghianti replied that their purview would be only in connection with revocation of T&T's license to serve alcoholic beverages. Mr. Richard Gelber, 1334 Fourth Street, stated he had a petition with 47 names of residents of the area who are asking the City Council to recommend to the A.B.C. that the operating hours for T & T Bar & Grill be limited to 11:00 PM Sundays through Thursday nights and no later than midnight Friday and Saturday nights, which is what the residents feel is appropriate for an eating establishment, as opposed to being a full bar. Mr. Joseph Territo, of 1334 Fourth Street, stated he had a problem with the staff report on the number of telephone calls made, indi- cating he had called 25 times to the Police Department and the neighbors probably had done the same, and that there must be a mistake in the amount of calls reported. Mr. Mason Ravan, of 1317 Fourth Street, two stores from the bar, stated the noise has affected his family and asked Council to try to help them. Mrs. Marie Sessi, who with her husband, have owned the building at 1334 Fourth Street since 1978, stated they have 22 residents that live upstairs and 6 downstairs. They are pleased with the tenants in their building, but with the noise across the street at T&T Bar & Grill, some of the tenants will be moving, and indicated they will also have to pay over $2,000 to put windows in units to cut down noise. Mrs. Sessi suggested that a letter be sent from the Council to A.B.C. stating firmly what Council would like done to resolve this problem. Mr. Gimi Sessi acknowledged that the owners of T & T's are trying to lessen the problem, but it is not compatible having apartments and the bar that close. Mr. Sessi continued that Mr. Gelber had moved out and Mr. Territo has threatened to move and they have also lost two other tenants. Mayor Mulryan asked staff to prepare a letter for his signature on behalf of the Council to A.B.C. expressing specific concerns, and asking them to have their report ready if they could, by the next Council meeting of March 4, 1985. Councilmember Breiner stated that they may want to consider having all uses require use permits in the downtown area. Mr. Tom Lyons, one of the owners of T & T's apologized to the City and the neighbors in the area, stating that when they contracted for the lease, they never thought that this problem would happen and indicating that because of the way the building is built, that at night the noise seems to echo. In defense of their customers, he stated 95% seem to be having a normal conversation on the way out, but there are a few people who are negligent, creating this problem. Mr. Tim Stone, co-owner of T&T Bar & Grill, indicated that they have asked the Police Department to drive by their neighborhood around 2:00 AM to aid in keeping patrons quiet. They also have an accous- tical ceiling to be installed to help to keep the noise level down. He indicated they have been dealing with A.B.C. and have met with the neighbors and some of the neighbors have stated that the noise level is lessening. Mr. Stone concluded by apologizing to the neighbors for the noise and thanked the Police for their help. 22. STAFF EVALUATION OF REGULATING SERVICE STATION CONVERSIONS (P1) - File 9-1 x 9-1-2 x 10-5 Councilmember Russom stated that he had a philosophical problem with the proposed Ordinance, indicating he does not believe that the City, SRCC MINUTES (Regular) 2/19/85 Page 11 SRCC MINUTES (R, alar) 2/19/85 Page 12 beyond the areas of public health and safety, should get into the areas which he considers to be a free market question, and the question of a gas station conversion from full service to self service is a free market question and one of what the market will bear and not a regulatory one. Councilmember Nave agreed with Mr. Russom and stated that the market has changed within the last three years, and wonders if an Ordinance is really needed at this time. Councilmember Breiner indicated that she brought this subject up thinking there were concerns in terms of what could be wholesale conversions to self service. Mrs. Breiner stated that she had a certain reluctance to build in the requirements to keep maintenance facilities. Mrs. Breiner stated that there is a real necessity to have restrooms, air and water available for people, indicating this is simply creating a use permit procedure, not saying that the City is not allowing conversions, but to review to see if there is a point where it may create a problem in the community. Mrs. Breiner urged the Council to think about this, because it may be fine now but perhaps not at a later time. Mayor Mulryan asked Planning Director Moore if the existing Ordinance allows the City to monitor conversions and Ms. Moore replied that all they can do is to require design review approval which is limited to design matters; they cannot use design review approval to impose use restrictions or mandatory requirements. Mr. Waite Powell spoke on behalf of Marin Center for Independent Living, representing the disabled of Marin County, indicating they support the Ordinance. According to the way the law reads now, should he enter a service station with an attendant, the attendant is required by law to pump the fuel for him because of his handicap. Mr. Powell stated they have supported San Anselmo and will support San Rafael indicating he would not want it to get to a point where a majority of the service stations are converted to computerization. From the standpoint of the disabled, they ask that Council have some control over the conversions. Mayor Mulryan asked staff if the existing regulations allow the City on an application for conversion to require handicapped access. Ms. Moore said this could be done if it dealt with modification of a service station, and would require a use permit. In response to questioning from Councilmember Breiner, Ms. Moore indicated that when a service station operator applies for a major design change, a use permit is required. However, if a station is changing one pump aisle from full service to self service, this is something the City may not be aware of as the gas stations are not monitored for this. Council referred item to the Planning Commission, without motion to review concerns in the area of the handicapped, basic services and the free market enterprise, with a report to be brought back to Council with their recommendations. 23. STATUS REPORT ON CALTRANS ANALYSIS OF HIGHWAY 101/INTERSTATE 580 INTERCHANGE (HIGHWAY 17) (PW) - File 11-16 Public Works Director Bernardi reported that CalTrans was nearing completion on their study of Highway 101/I-580 Interchange for the California Transportation Commission. Initial recommendations have been made to the City so the City's comments can be included with the report. The changes include widening of southbound Highway 101, improving the Highway 101 southbound ramps at West Francisco Boule- vard, reconstructing the Highway 101/I-580 structure, and phased relocation of the local ramps to Bellam Boulevard. The proposed widening of Highway 101 would provide two southbound lanes and no new northbound lanes, requiring significantly more right of way than previously anticipated. The improvements will not provide the two directional capacity needed for buildout in East San Rafael. The significant right-of-way take is not justified by the design standards of adjoining sections of Highway 101 significantly impacting rede- velopment along West Francisco Boulevard. Modifications to the SRCC MINUTES (Regular) 2/19/85 Page 12 SRCC MINUTES (Resalar) 2/19/35 Page 13 southbound ramps are similar to those previously recommended by City staff; however, certain features of the design would reduce access to local businesses. Alternate designs should be considered. The changes to the Highway 101/Interstate 580 structures are similar to those previously recommended by City staff and are needed to accom- modate the ramp improvements. Concepts of relocating the Bellam Boulevard ramp are similar to those previously recommended by staff, and alternate designs to minimize the impact of right-of-way acqui- sition and maintain as much of the existing network as possible should be considered. Mr. Dick Harrison, Civil Engineer for CalTrans' Project Development Department, spoke on the project study report on the U.S. 101/Inter- state 580 Interchange. Mr. Art Brook, Senior Planner, briefly gave a report on the U.S. 101/Interchange 580 project. Council accepted the staff report, without motion, and directed staff to forward the City's concerns and comments to CalTrans. (Councilmember Breiner left meeting) 24.

It is estimated tha the contract will be awarded by March 21, 1985. Construction is estimated to take 24 months. 28.

REQUEST BY CANALWAYS (JAMES BLEDSOE) TO RESCIND COUNCIL ACTION OF JANUARY 7, 1985 DENYING WITHOUT PREJUDICE A GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT, URBAN DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT POLICY STATEMENT AMENDMENT, REZuhiAu, (APPLICATIONS GPA82-1, P82-1 and Z81-22) FOR THE CANALWAYS PROJECT (AP 9-010-22, 23, 24 & Ptn. 33), AND CONTINUE HEARING FOR A 30 DAY PERIOD TO MARCH 18, 1985 (P1) - File 5-1-288 x 10-3 Mayor Mulryan indicated that this was a request by Canalways to rescind the Council action of January 7, 1985, denying project without prejudice, and to have a date set for a public hearing. Mr. David Coldoff, representing Mr. James Bledsoe, owner of the property, addressed the Council stating that Mr. Bledsoe is attempt- ing to reach a decision whether to continue the project, and has been in conversation with the Environmental Agencies who have led them to believe they can resolve the issues with the Environmental Agencies within 30 days. In discussions with the Planning staff and the Consultant indications are that a recommended Neighborhood Plan will probably be ready within the next 60 days, thus having something with which to compare the Canalways Project. Councilmember Frugoli moved and Councilmember Nave seconded, to set a public hearing for April 1, 1985 to discuss recission of Resolution 7044. If approved, another public hearing will be scheduled at a later date to consider the project on its merits.
