BACKGROUND: On September 2, 2014 the City Council passed to print the Ordinance of the City of
San Rafael Approving a Lease of Real Property Located in the City of San Rafael, Being a Portion of
Assessor's Parcel No. 014-152-27 and Commonly Known As "Beach Park", to Terrapin Crossroads, LLP.

Exhibit "3" to the Lease states: List of Beach Park Improvements
Terrapin Crossroads agrees to design and install, subject to City approvals and permits the
following improvements to Beach Park:
1. Installation of a construction fence around the perimeter of the park
2. Demolition of existing bocce courts, volleyball posts, failing wood structures along the
water line
3. Removal of dead palm trees
4. Removal of contaminated sand; replacement with decomposed granite surface
5. Installation of gated, ADA accessible personal water craft dock
6. Installation of two bocce courts
7. Installation of seating and picnic facilities
8. Installation of permanent security fencing
9. Installation of children's swings and safety surfacing
10. Installation of landscape and irrigation
On February 19, representatives from Terrapin Crossroads presented to the Park and Recreation
Commission landscape architectural plans for the design Beach Park, responding to the items included in
Exhibit 3. The plan is attached as Item 1.
After discussion and public comment, refer to the meeting Minutes (unapproved) included as
Attachment 2, the Commission unanimously approved the Design for Beach Park, with one abstention
(Commissioner Jones) based on potential conflict of interest.
ANALYSIS:
The Beach Park Improvement plan was submitted on behalf of Terrapin Crossroads by Ed Tishborn of
Tishborn Studio, Land Scape Architects. It addresses the issues of security, access to the Canal
waterfront, active and passive recreation areas, landscape enhancement and event accommodation.
Specifically, as per the Lease the design responds:
1. Construction fence around perimeter
Installed in fall of 2014.
2. Demolition of existing bocce courts, volleyball posts, failing wood structures along the waterline
The Demolition plan removes these existing features.
3. Removal of dead palm trees
Two trees will be removed; five palm trees and the existing pepper tree will be retained.
4. Removal of contaminated sand: replacement of decomposed granite surfaces.
The sand will be excavated and removed from the site. The central area on site will be a
"meadow" synthetic lawn installation, sized to fit a volleyball court Decomposed granite pathways and
areas will be replaced with a product called Grancrete, a porous material with higher stability attributes
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 3
than decomposed granite. The product is used successfully in Golden Gate National Park facilities in
San Francisco. Attachment 3, Product concepts, with the description of Grancrete is attached.
5. Installation of gated, ADA accessible personal water craft dock.
A new ramp and dock is designed to be hinged to the existing piers on the site, after those
elements are stabilized to engineered standards. The floating dock will be of a height appropriate for
canoes, kayaks, paddle boards, etc. and include bumpers for safe tie up. A gate at the top of the ramp
will have a call button to reach the restaurant staff for entry, so that the access to the park from the Canal
is controlled.
6. Installation of two bocce courts.
The two bocce courts are relocated on the plan to the street end of the park to present an active
"feel" to the site, as well as a low profile for maximum view corridor to the water from Yacht Club Drive.
7. Installation of seating and picnic areas.
The plan shows bench seating at the bocce courts, picnic tables adjacent to the bocce courts, the
playground, and the meadow; cluster lounge seating at four locations each with a gas fire pit feature.
Removable furnishings may also be placed on the 21' x17' concrete pad at the North West corner of the
park. The pad is shaded by an arbor and can serve multiple activities. The seating areas were designed
to capture the views of Mt Tamalpais, the Canal Turning Basin, and the Canal waterway.
8. Installation of permanent security fencing.
The existing fencing treatment, large gage wire mesh on wood frame allows unrestricted views
into the park and will be completed around the entire perimeter for security of access, and to prevent
children inside the park from entering the water. Two new gated entries, at the Southeast corner and the
South west corner will improve the aesthetics and utility for access of small water craft and maintenance
equipment.
9. Installation of children's swings and safety surfacing.
The site dimensions do not allow the mandatory safety "fall zone" required by State Playground
Safety Code without compromising the space available for the other park amenities. Installation of
swings requires a 10' clear area of approved resilient surfacing from the apex of the forward and rear
swing arcs. This results in a large area of rubberized padding or tan bark that cannot be used for another
feature or activity. Instead the plan calls for a preschool age climbing structure, and approved fall zone
surface proposed as shown in Attachment 3, Product Concepts, as a ship structure for creative play. The
structure will serve more children simultaneously, stimulate creative play and result in a more efficient use
of space in Beach Park, than a swing installation could provide.
The Lease requires Terrapin to produce seven free public events in the park in addition to
allowing for 30 ticketed events throughout the year. Representatives indicated a regular time each week
would be announced when families are encouraged to visit the park to use picnic game equipment in
addition to the park play facilities. Programming will commence when the project is completed.
10. Installation of landscape and irrigation.
The plan as proposed retains the existing living trees for shade and aesthetics. It retains the
boulders and ground cover along the fence line on Yacht Club Drive. Added is mulch planting area with
new coastal grasses and ground cover that will require no additional irrigation after establishment. The
coastal grass plantings on site currently will be expanded along the dock side of the park. Natural
grasses will also be installed on the north end of the park, for low lying, draught tolerant treatment.
Movable planters with seasonal plants and flowers will be added on site.
The plan strives to create a landscape that is draught tolerant, native, requiring minimal
maintenance, and independent of ongoing irrigation. There is no water meter to serve Beach Park. The
landscape plan responds to the City desire for an attractive yet efficient and economical treatment that
will sustain itself.
The Lease calls for all park improvements to become City property at the conclusion of the partnership
with Terrapin Crossroads. The design is well suited for the current restaurant operation and management
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 4
and will translate well to typical public park use, with possible minor alterations, when and if the City
resumes management responsibility.
FISCAL IMPACT: The Lease requires Terrapin to pay the City $15,000 per year in rent, and allows for a
CPI adjustment over the term. The City may credit Terrapin for improvements each year at a maximum of
$15,000. The Lease also obliges park improvements ata minimum value of $100,000:
5.1 Value of Amenities. During the term of this Lease, TERRAPIN CROSSROADS shall spend not
less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) for the acquisition and installation on the
Premises of the amenities described in Sections 5.2 and 5.3.
For the first year, Terrapin Crossroads submitted documentation of expenditure over $15,000, as
confirmed by the Finance Department.

San Rafael Park and Recreation Commission
Meeting Minutes: February 19, 2015
Chair Mihan called the meeting to order at 7: 05 p.m. at the San Rafael Community Center
Roll Call: Commissioners: Mark Bustillos, Eric Holm, Jeff Jones, Stacey Laumann, Mark
Machado, Ralph Mihan, Chair, Tom Obletz, Commissioners, Cicily Emerson, Alternate
Commissioners Present: Bustillos, Jones, Mihan, Obletz, Machado (late), Emerson
Commissioners Absent: Holm, Laumann
Staff Present: Carlene McCart, Director, Community Services, Debbie Younkin, Senior
Recreation Supervisor, Vera DeFerrari, Aquatics Program Coordinator, Risa De Ferrari, Falkirk
Program Coordinator
The meeting began with introductions of Commissioners to newly appointed Alternate
Commissioner, Cicily Emerson, and Risa DeFerrari, Falkirk Program Coordinator to the
Commission.
1. Action Items
A. Community Park Improvement Priority Input
Director McCart introduced the item with background on the history of Measure A funds
supporting park, recreation and open space facilities in Marin County, the distribution of
funds since 2013, and the process by which the City is soliciting community input for
priority improvements to park facilities in San Rafael.
The Chair recognized the Terra Linda Homeowners Association who requested to make
a presentation.
Silvia Brady, chair of the parks Committee for TLHOA began a Power Point
presentation on Freitas Park. The HOA polled membership for the highest priorities for
park improvement in the neighborhood. The HOA, Kaiser Permanente and Mark Day
School agree the most urgent need is for development of the Northern most portion of
Freitas Park which is across Monticello Avenue from the main portion of the park, and
connected by a tunnel that crosses underneath the street. This area formally was the
site of a large piece of play equipment, tables and seating. It contains the pedestrian
pathway that connects the neighborhood with Vallecito and Mark Day schools, serving
K- 5 and K-8 grade students. The play equipment was removed many years ago, and
the portion of the park is left with only two benches. The property is overgrown; rat
infested, and attracts vagrants. The HOA proposes three projects for consideration:
1. Install a Labyrinth Garden on the North portion of Freitas Park, with tables and
seating, for passive activities, meditation, and safe attractive environment for students
to walk through to their campuses.
2. Install the sunshade on the playground originally designed for the project on the
South side of the park, but eliminated due to cost of the project.

Meeting Minutes, February 19, 2015
Page 2
3. Install the self-closing gate across the entry to the South portion of Freitas Park to
prevent young children, using the water play feature, from stepping into the street.
There were six speakers in favor of the priorities presented. The comments were:
• A child of the speaker did wander into the street, was at risk of being hit by a
car. Traffic associated with Kaiser and the neighborhood is a concern, along
with the consistent parked cars at the Park entry which prevent oncoming traffic
from seeing small children.
• The deteriorated condition of the North portion of the park presents a safety
hazard
• The Labyrinth Garden would provide an accessible gathering spot for the
neighborhood, as the Southern portion is primarily a hillside site.
• The playground is exposed to the sun year round and becomes too hot on
summer days for children, therefore the sunshade is critical.
• The North portion is underutilized, and an eyesore
• Mark Day School regularly schedules Volunteer Days and would participate in
the installation of Labyrinth Garden
• The restriction of parking on Monticello is not something the speaker supports.
Commissioner Bustillos inquired if restricted park at the front of the park is desired by
the neighborhood. Brady replied that this is not in the interest of the neighborhood or
Kaiser, who use the street parking extensively for employees.
Commissioner Jones inquired as to cost estimates for the three projects. None are
available.
Is Kaiser willing to donate? As a donor to the playground project, Kaiser has not been
approached to contribute to the proposed projects.
Commissioner Obletz asked if there was a role volunteers could play. Perhaps with
installation and planting.
Bustillos likes the labyrinth concept, and noted the existing one in his neighborhood
attracts many and varied users.
Commissioner Emerson complimented the proposals as well thought out and
supported; she supports the installation of the gate.
Chair Mihan reminded those in attendance that the design for the gardens and
labyrinth must be low maintenance and draught resistant; matching funds for any or all
the proposes projects are welcome, and may result in their earlier completion.
The Commission thanked TLHOA for the presentation. No other comments were made
on park priorities. McCart noted the matrix of ideas submitted to date, and reminded
the Commission will hold the last public meeting for input on March 19.
B. Terra Linda Orcas Swim Team Agreement 2015
Senior Recreation Supervisor, Debbie Younkin initiated the item with introduction of Bruce
Mayfield, President of the Terra Linda Orca Swim Club. Aquatics Program
Park and Recreation Commission
Meeting Minutes, February 19, 2015
Page 3
Coordinator Vera DeFerrari reviewed the negotiated Agreement for Use of the Terra
Linda Community Pool and Center.
The amendments to prior Agreements are few. This year, due to the number of
younger, and novice swimmers the Agreement allows for the Club to start earlier in the
afternoon. This group will receive additional coaching before the more experience team
members arrive for practice. The Club will also have an extension of the exclusive use
of the pool from 6 — 8:45 p.m. displacing the evening lap swim program until July. The
program attracted approximately four lap swimmer per evening last year. Team
participation fees are increased to address increased coaching and operational
expenses. The largest group of participants is 8 years and younger. The Club accepts
swimmers 5- 18 years of age.
Obletz inquired about the charge for utilities. Younkin replied that the Club is
apportioned a 50% cost for the startup of the heating and mechanical operation of the
pool, $945, an amount increased 3 years ago, and still current to overall costs.
After discussion it was M/s Obletz/Bustillos to approve the Terra Linda Orca Swim Team
Agreement for Use of the Terra Linda Community Pool and Center, 2015 and
recommend the City Council accept the Agreement.
AYES: Bustillos, Jones, Mihan, Obletz, Machado (late), Emerson
NOES: None
ABSENT: Holm, Laumann
C. Beach Park Concept Design Review
McCart introduced the item with reference to the Lease Agreement between the
City of San Rafael and Terrapin Crossroads for the Use of Beach Park. The Agreement
calls for the park improvements design to be reviewed by the Commission and the project
to be subject to the City's permit process. The Commission will make recommendation of
the ultimate design plan for the City Council's acceptance.
In attendance representing Terrapin Crossroads was Phil Leash, Leasee, Tara Patton,
Facilities Manager, and Ed Tishborn of Tishborn Studio, Landscape a Architects.
Patton began the presentation by noting the proposed plans reflected the commitment in
the Lease to clean, improve and renovate Beach Park. All landscape materials are draught
resistant. The synthetic turf will provide a play and aesthetic amenity to the facility with
minimal maintenance and water. Bocce courts will be re position on the site. The seating
and fire features will provide welcoming and comfortable seating clusters that take
advantage of the natural site lines from the property to the surrounding scenery. The dock
will be returned to public service. Overall the plan creates a gracious gathering place.
Tishborn began the plan review. The goal of the design was to rejuvenate the park as
an attractive active and passive space, low maintenance, and low energy requirements.
He pointed out;
• The Meadow is synthetic turf that percolates well for overall site drainage
The Bocce courts, in a new portion of the park, will showcase the activity in the park
Park and Recreation Commission
Meeting Minutes, February 19, 2015
Page 4
• Paths are shown in the Grancrete material for the drainage and stability attributes
• The hard surface slab 17'x 21, also of Grancrete, is shaded by an arbor, and serves
multi purposes from seating, to gathering, to performance.
• The play structure is designed for younger children, a ship climbing structure, with a pad
for a safety surface.
• Existing fencing will be repaired and continued to encircle the perimeter of the park.
Portions will be planted with vines.
• Additional dune grass is repeated in the new plan.
• All landscape will be established with existing water allocation and will not require on-
going irrigation.
• The fire tables and pits proposed are gas fed, flexible in their positioning, and can be
controlled by the Terrapin management for safety.
• The seating furnishings will vary from park benches at the Bocce courts and playground,
to lounge type and Adirondack chairs, movable to respond to the programming. Seating
areas are selected to offer different views of the water and Mt Tamalpais.
• The new dock uses the existing piers as they hinge to a new ADA compliant ramp
leading to the floating dock design for lightweight craft.
• Of the trees on site, five of the seven palms will remain, as will the mature pepper tree,
providing shade to the site. Non fruiting Olive trees will be planted on the street side of
the park.
The Commission responded with the following comments:
• Obletz liked the design.
• How many fire features? There are 2 in the plan but their inclusion is flexible
• How does the public enter the park from the dock? There is a lockable gate with key
pad that will allow visitors to notify the restaurant for entry, when the park is not occupied
for events/activities with staff present.
• When park gates are locked, how will the public access the area? Through the
restaurant when management is on site (pre- and during restaurant operation).
• Will a water meter be installed to serve the site? No. The existing allocation is sufficient
to establish the new landscape.
• Will food and beverage service be provided? Yes either in the park, or from the
restaurant. Visitors may bring their own picnics and non-alcoholic beverages.
• Is additional parking proposed? No. Presently there are four spaces plus an ADA
compliant parking space. The repositioning of the Yacht Club drive gate will maximize
parking, and create an aesthetically improved entry.
• Will park access be locked after restaurant hours? Yes.
• Will alcoholic beverages be served in the park? Yes. The ABC permit has been granted
for an extension of service.
• Bustillos called the design "outstanding", the gate system is functional, and the plans for
welcome signage are a good idea.
• How do the new entry gates serve the park? The Yacht Club Drive entry is moved to
replace the loading dock and garbage area. A 4' gate opening from the restaurant
parking lot will be more prominent.
• What is the height of the dock? 5.5 — 6" to accommodate small craft.
What additional lighting will be provided? Existing flood lights will be supplemented with
down lighting in the palm trees, LED pathway lights and bollard lights. The Bocce courts
will be equipped with festival string lights. Gates will be lit.

Meeting Minutes, February 19, 2015
Page 5
How will the public access the park during the weekdays? Management staff is on site
from 9:30 a.m. through the evening to provide entry, and access is provided through the
restaurant during operating hours.
The plan is a more adult design, when will the supplemental game equipment be made
available? During a promoted day and time each week, and during events.
Is there an opportunity for solar power lighting? Not at this time.
After further discussion it was
M/s Obletz/Machado to Approve the Design Plans for Beach Park and recommend the City
Council Accept the Plans as Submitted.

Questions about onelawn@ and our Synthetic Grass
What are the advantages of working with onelawn'?
There are many reasons,why customers choose orfelawnr_7for their landscape projects. °.Ne
provide beautiful, high quality synthetic grass products Installed by a team of professionals.
Our staff strives to make ever, step of the process as easy for the customer as possible —
superior customer service is very importantto our team. We also offer various financing and
payment options wNch male synthetic grass a possibility for every family.`Ne combine
cutting edge technology in product development and installation methodology, mixed with
old-fashioned -the customer is always right service!
What is the grass made of?
onelawna, synthetic turf is made from ' 00°,� polyolefin— a combination of poly propylene and
polyethylene. That means that our grass —not just the blades, butthe backing material as *ell
—is 1004` recyclable at the end of its life. Not many synthetic grasses can make that claim.
The Duratlo n' backing material is also partially made from post -consumer recycled
polypropylene fibers.
Can the grass add value to my Bay Area home or business?
Yes! It has been estimated that adding lush neva synthetic grass in place of tired brown sod
can add 10% or more to the property Value Of ",'Our Bay Area home or business!
How do I pay for the grass?
The goal at onelawn=> is to prm^ide financing options that can be tailored to each
homeowner's individual budget. For qualified customers, we offer a financing option of zero
down payments, zero interest and sero pe kments for a full year. If that option isn't suited for
your needs, *e also accept all major credit cards, checks and cash.
Has onelawn�_ synthetic grass undergone testing?
Th'e're proud to say that our manufacturer has gone through extensive testing with each of the
products we offer. All of our products meet (most exceed!') US and State of California safety
standards. The products are lead and heavy metal free. In addition, our playground grass and
SofFill"I combination is IPEI-dA (International Play Equipment l0anufacturer's Association'',
certified. That means commercial -grade safeh, standards for your own back°lard.
Does onelawn'- have a warranty?
Our artificial grass products come with a 20 ear transferable manufacturer's warranty. In
addition, we offer a 1,0 year installation warranty.
Will the long-term effects of the sun harm the grass?
The artificial grass blades have been carefully engineered to resist fading and damage.
What about drainage?
You'll think it's a typo, but onelawne drains at a rate of 400 inches per hour!
Is artificial lawn "pet friendly?"
Yes. Cleaning up after your pets is easier than with natural grass and pet urine will no longer
leave discolored patches on your lawn. Dogs don't get the same sensation from digging in
synthetic yards as they do with sod, so most dogs hill refrain from tearing up your new
onelawnCo grass, uneia=1 is the perfect Artificial Grass for Dogs and Pets.
How much does it cost?
onelavm,,!) synthetic grass is priced by the square foot and installation costs vary based on
each specific project. While the initial cost of installing a neve synthetic grass lawn may be
more expensive titan simply re -sodding your yard, a sod lawn has recurring costs ivvatering,
fertilizer, gas for mowing, aeration, seeding, a gardeningllandscaping Semite, etc.1, *hile the
artificial lawn requires little to no ongoing maintenance_
Is the grass similar to patio carpet or Astroturf?
No. Synthetic grass has come a long way since the first installation of Astroturf at the dome in
Houston in 1965 The first generation of 'fake grass" gained a reputation for its unrealistic
look and feel. ;lith the advances in materials and construction over the past 40 years,
however; we thin[,you'll agree that those improvements have led to a productthat is virtually
indistinguishable from traditional sod in appearance and texture onelawnt�!'s onelawn-0 is
the nextgeneration of synthetic lawns..
Does it get warmer than natural grass?
Yes. On average; the grass can be .5-10 degrees warmer than natural grass on a hot day.
What type of infill material do you use?
one!awn1 synthetic turf does not require infill! The only product that requires infill is the
putting green material. While we use infill for that application, we never use playground sand
or chopped up blact. rubbertires. Instead, we use a low heatgain antimicrobial infill product—
acrylic coated silica called SofFill-". (Jur infill is one of the most environmentally friendly infill
products on the market—itis both lead and heavy metal free. Cur infill has no static cling —
uniiVe rubberwhich can sticl to clothing. Itwill notfloat in water— which means no ha—zardous
runoff issues.
Are there chemical or metals found in your infill like that found in black crumb rubber infills?
No. Our infill is one of the safest materials on the market— it is lead and heav+j metal free and
does not have the potentially harmful oft -gassing issues associated vi th crumb rubber infill.
Black rubber infill, ashen it gets hot, makes an unpleasant odor and the dust given off bj the
rubber fill can potentially be harmful to the respirator; system.
How do I remove debris from my artificial lawn?
The best part about a synthetic grass yard is the fact that it requires almost no maintenance
The leaf blower and a simple garden hose should tale care of ani debris you may wantto
remove from your lawn..
Is the grass flammable?
No.' -Vhile burns from cigarettes or coals from the grill will melt the fibers in the spot where
they fall, our artificial grass Is not flammable. The melted spots, should any appear, can
simply be clipped away
