1
00:00:09,970 --> 00:00:21,590
All right, I'll call the, I'll call the meeting to order for May 27th and we take a roll call, please.

2
00:00:22,270 --> 00:00:31,770
Commissioner Williams, President, Commissioner Woodward, President, chair, Mayor, and are there two commissioners are absent today.

3
00:00:32,390 --> 00:00:33,650
Great, thank you.

4
00:00:33,650 --> 00:00:42,590
So is there anybody in the audience or on Zoom that wants to address the committee or

5
00:00:42,590 --> 00:00:43,250
communications?

6
00:00:43,750 --> 00:00:46,390
Tara, there are no oral communications.

7
00:00:47,010 --> 00:00:47,810
Okay, great.

8
00:00:48,650 --> 00:00:53,010
To staff, is there anything that staff would like to address?

9
00:00:53,290 --> 00:00:54,350
Yeah, I just wanted to.

10
00:00:54,870 --> 00:00:55,930
Good evening.

11
00:00:56,610 --> 00:00:57,850
Are you acting as chair?

12
00:00:57,990 --> 00:00:58,710
You are chair.

13
00:00:59,790 --> 00:01:02,850
I am the chair.

14
00:01:04,030 --> 00:01:11,610
chair a mirror. I just wanted to remind everybody I did send out an email earlier today that the planning

15
00:01:11,610 --> 00:01:18,630
commissioner training has been postponed from June 1st to Monday October 5th due to lack of

16
00:01:18,630 --> 00:01:24,630
response. A lot of resources go into this and the county felt that it wasn't feasible to do it at

17
00:01:24,630 --> 00:01:31,370
this time. So hopefully y'all can save that date. October 5th same time between 2 and 8 and if you

18
00:01:31,370 --> 00:01:35,870
questions. Let me know. You'll hear more from me as we get closer to it. Great. Thank you.

19
00:01:37,210 --> 00:01:43,710
All right. So we'll move on into the approving the minutes from March 25th,

20
00:01:43,730 --> 00:01:49,210
2026. Are there any comments from my fellow commissioners on the minutes?

21
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,000
All right. Can I have a motion, please?

22
00:01:57,150 --> 00:01:58,490
Can we take a roll call?

23
00:02:01,850 --> 00:02:02,750
Commissioner Williams?

24
00:02:02,750 --> 00:02:02,770
Thanks,

25
00:02:05,790 --> 00:02:06,730
Chair Woodward.

26
00:02:07,390 --> 00:02:07,990
Chair, I'm here.

27
00:02:09,130 --> 00:02:10,090
All right, the minute.

28
00:02:10,590 --> 00:02:13,970
Okay, so the motion passes to approve the minutes of March 25, 26.

29
00:02:14,830 --> 00:02:18,370
All right, so we'll go on to the first action item on the agenda,

30
00:02:18,710 --> 00:02:22,030
which is the end of review of the draft of the five-year Capone Improvement Program.

31
00:02:22,870 --> 00:02:25,390
And with that, staff, do we have a report?

32
00:02:25,630 --> 00:02:26,190
We do.

33
00:02:27,290 --> 00:02:29,090
Good evening again, Chair, I'm here.

34
00:02:29,310 --> 00:02:31,350
I'm sharing me your community development director.

35
00:02:31,350 --> 00:02:35,810
I'm just gonna kick off this item and then cast the torch to Patrick who really is in charge

36
00:02:35,810 --> 00:02:42,570
of all of this work. This is an item that comes before the board annually. We are required

37
00:02:42,570 --> 00:02:48,810
by state law to bring this item to the Planning Commission to ensure that the projects that are

38
00:02:48,810 --> 00:02:53,130
proposed in the Capital Improvement Program are consistent with general plan goals and policies.

39
00:02:53,910 --> 00:02:59,030
So Patrick's gonna do a real quick run through of the projects and then at the end of the meeting

40
00:02:59,030 --> 00:03:05,190
we're hoping to get a motion, find the Capital Improvement Program

41
00:03:05,190 --> 00:03:07,290
consistent with general plan goals and policies.

42
00:03:08,050 --> 00:03:11,430
Great. Thank you, and here's my lovely co-worker Patrick.

43
00:03:12,790 --> 00:03:15,030
Thank you, Sherry, and good evening, chair and commissioners.

44
00:03:16,090 --> 00:03:20,490
Happy to be here tonight to talk about the exciting projects we have planned for the

45
00:03:22,470 --> 00:03:28,770
proposed 2627 fiscal year CIP, and I'll go through them relatively quickly and please

46
00:03:28,770 --> 00:03:32,450
feel free to stop me if there's anything you would like any more detail on.

47
00:03:33,190 --> 00:03:42,470
I'll just give a quick overview of how our CIP is broken up just so that the order of

48
00:03:42,470 --> 00:03:46,550
the list here may make a little bit more sense to everyone and then we can start going through

49
00:03:46,550 --> 00:03:46,990
the slide.

50
00:03:47,790 --> 00:03:53,150
So generally in our CIP we have a couple of ongoing programs, the bike and PED Improvement

51
00:03:53,150 --> 00:04:08,990
program, open space management program, pavement maintenance and rehabilitation program, storm drain maintenance and rehabilitation program, and lastly basically all other capital improvement projects that don't fit in or fit under an annual program.

52
00:04:10,010 --> 00:04:17,390
And most of the projects that are covered under the first four programs that I describe

53
00:04:18,150 --> 00:04:24,090
are ongoing efforts, whether it's ongoing maintenance efforts or improvement efforts for our existing infrastructure.

54
00:04:25,430 --> 00:04:34,390
Some of these projects that I'll go over tonight were approved in the previous fiscal year CIP, but were not constructed due to time constraints or other

55
00:04:34,390 --> 00:04:36,850
logistical, logistical challenges.

56
00:04:38,330 --> 00:04:42,070
So with that, we'll go through the slides and I'll

57
00:04:42,070 --> 00:04:43,250
go through each project.

58
00:04:44,610 --> 00:04:45,730
Thank you, Sherry.

59
00:04:47,330 --> 00:04:50,890
And in the staff report, David Issue prepared this.

60
00:04:50,990 --> 00:04:54,270
He indicated which general plan goals and policies each

61
00:04:54,270 --> 00:04:55,330
project addressed.

62
00:04:57,740 --> 00:05:00,240
And the other thing, if you can go back really quickly.

63
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:01,780
So I talked about the programs.

64
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,620
And if any of you ever take a look at the CIP, this is one thing

65
00:05:04,620 --> 00:05:11,340
And sometimes confuse people where the way the budget has historically been set up, it's

66
00:05:11,340 --> 00:05:15,060
in three categories in terms of funding, and I know we're not getting into that to

67
00:05:15,060 --> 00:05:20,200
in-depth tonight, but they're looked at a street, drainage, and community, and miscellaneous

68
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:21,120
projects.

69
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,400
And that's traditionally the way that we've organized the projects in the budget.

70
00:05:26,860 --> 00:05:31,420
So I'll go into that a little bit more once we go through the projects, but if anybody

71
00:05:31,420 --> 00:05:35,900
ever looks at the CIP. That's also how they're broken up in there. So although through

72
00:05:35,900 --> 00:05:41,760
this pretty quick, I think a lot of these things may be repeats from past years. We were

73
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:49,360
annual bike and pedestrian improvements. These fund projects. As identified in the bike

74
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:56,080
Ped Master plan, there are projects to improve circulation, pedestrian, and bike type

75
00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:04,460
modal means of transportation, it's $100,000 for this year and projecting out the next

76
00:06:04,460 --> 00:06:11,440
five years. Go ahead, please. This is a new project for this year. We started in the fiscal

77
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:17,480
year that we're in right now and it's a comprehensive way-finding sign program and it's something

78
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:22,880
that was talked about for many years here. It was incorporated into the Park's Master Plan

79
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:37,320
and is something that we're working on, designing, and vetting through post right now, and it's to basically go through all of our parts, open space preserves, and other public areas, and develop a clear and concise wayfinding and rule signage program.

80
00:06:39,580 --> 00:06:47,460
Next is a project that we started working on this year. We will not construct it likely, or we will construct it likely, not this coming fiscal year, but the following.

81
00:06:47,460 --> 00:07:07,440
It's a project to improve the circulation and basically install sidewalks, crosswalks, and really clean up kind of a, I'll say if we're gotten stretch of road on Clannert Way, which serves Reed School, the police station and the Tiburon Public Works Corporation yard over the years.

82
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:08,180
Thank you.

83
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:31,180
The everything kind of has developed around this street that's been here for a really long time and this is a project that will really make everything a lot safer and improve the ability for people of all ages to navigate this stretch it serves a lot of people every day and we also have quite a bit of grant funding to aid in the construction.

84
00:07:33,300 --> 00:07:39,440
This is another project that we started talking about this year after post brought up a priority

85
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,960
of improving safety out on the old rail trail.

86
00:07:42,700 --> 00:07:48,340
So this is right behind the Belvedere Public Works Corporation here, and it's a very

87
00:07:49,740 --> 00:07:54,740
constricted segment of the old rail trail where there's a small bridge that's pretty old,

88
00:07:55,380 --> 00:08:00,460
and it has some line of side issues, and it's a source of complaints that we've received

89
00:08:00,460 --> 00:08:06,780
at this location. So the goal here is to widen this out and make it a lot more visible and

90
00:08:06,780 --> 00:08:11,580
improve safety through this once stretch of the ORT, we're hoping to construct something

91
00:08:11,580 --> 00:08:12,760
this coming fiscal year.

92
00:08:14,810 --> 00:08:20,230
Again, this is an annual project that we cover under our bike and

93
00:08:20,230 --> 00:08:25,390
PED improvement program and it's for maintenance and upkeep and improvements to our

94
00:08:25,390 --> 00:08:33,220
desolanes and trails throughout the town. This is another annual project, fire road maintenance

95
00:08:33,220 --> 00:08:40,500
to maintain the fire roads on the town owned open space parcels. We have over 250 acres of open space

96
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:46,700
in the that the town owns and this is to maintain the fire roads through those areas.

97
00:08:48,750 --> 00:08:55,430
This is another ongoing project under the open space management program and this is the open space

98
00:08:55,430 --> 00:09:03,270
management project. So every year we usually do about two projects, a spring and a fall project to go out and remove invasive species on our preserves.

99
00:09:04,070 --> 00:09:08,450
We had an open space management plan developed.

100
00:09:08,450 --> 00:09:13,570
I think it's been at least 15 years now of 2010 longer than that almost.

101
00:09:14,990 --> 00:09:25,170
And we did an update to it with a short term implementation plan to prioritize the projects in the areas that we are focusing our efforts on in the open space.

102
00:09:25,170 --> 00:09:32,070
so it's to reduce fire fuel vegetation and to keep the trails clear and to do the best

103
00:09:32,070 --> 00:09:34,510
we can to prevent the spread of invasive species.

104
00:09:37,250 --> 00:09:44,470
This is the slide representing this year's annual pavement maintenance project and we're

105
00:09:44,470 --> 00:09:54,410
I think have around I want to say 30 streets that we're going to try to treat with a

106
00:09:54,410 --> 00:09:59,450
streets is good as we can because it's a lot cheaper to maintain them before they fall apart.

107
00:10:00,130 --> 00:10:04,890
So we have a project we're actually opening vids tomorrow and hopeful that we get some

108
00:10:04,890 --> 00:10:10,370
good prices from contractors and good interest from them and we would do that project this summer

109
00:10:10,370 --> 00:10:16,170
to treat like I said I think around 30 streets and every year we try to do either a pavement maintenance

110
00:10:16,170 --> 00:10:20,230
or a pavement rehabilitation project depending on what the priorities are.

111
00:10:21,850 --> 00:10:29,290
This is a continuation of the previous slide where we basically are always designing projects

112
00:10:29,290 --> 00:10:31,550
for the subsequent fiscal year.

113
00:10:32,190 --> 00:10:36,350
So, concurrently while we are slurry ceiling our streets, we will be embarking on a design

114
00:10:36,350 --> 00:10:41,270
with a consultant to treat the next batch of streets, next summer.

115
00:10:43,490 --> 00:10:48,090
Another annual program covered under the Strong Dream Maintenance and Rehabilitation Program.

116
00:10:48,090 --> 00:10:52,450
This is our annual, let's see, our annual Stormdrain lining.

117
00:10:52,970 --> 00:11:02,830
So years ago, a priority of Council was, as presented by Public Works, was to go out and rehabilitate Stormdrain lines all throughout town.

118
00:11:02,910 --> 00:11:08,950
We had some sinkholes and some other really aging infrastructure that we were concerned about.

119
00:11:09,490 --> 00:11:14,150
And as often as we can, we try to do it with trenchless rehabilitation means.

120
00:11:14,150 --> 00:11:19,250
So we go in and line storm drains without digging up the street, which is a really economical

121
00:11:21,610 --> 00:11:24,950
and at least the least invasive way to try to get them done.

122
00:11:25,110 --> 00:11:29,710
So we have a project plan to line, I think, around 10 storm drains this summer.

123
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:40,300
And another project that's been found on the CIP on and off over the years is the railroad

124
00:11:40,300 --> 00:11:43,020
marsh storm water basin maintenance project.

125
00:11:43,020 --> 00:11:49,520
The railroad marsh is right behind town hall here, it serves as a stormwater detention basin for the town.

126
00:11:50,940 --> 00:11:56,960
We have projects periodically to go in and remove biomass, which is basically removing cat tails,

127
00:11:57,020 --> 00:12:08,220
and other invasive species to be able to keep the capacity of this facility as large as possible to be able to have the most stormwater capacity.

128
00:12:08,220 --> 00:12:19,700
So we will be embarking on a project this coming fiscal year to take a bunch of cat tails and biomass and other junk basically out of that detention basin.

129
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:29,300
This is going back talking about the Stormdrain Maintenance Annual Maintenance Projects that we do.

130
00:12:29,680 --> 00:12:37,640
This is funding basically to design similar to the street rehab maintenance projects to design a subsequent years project.

131
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:48,260
So, while we're constructing this year's project, we'll be starting the process to pick the next round of pipes and storm drain features that we want to replace upgrade or repair.

132
00:12:50,250 --> 00:12:57,070
This is another project that was on the CIP in the fiscal year, we're in right now, but we didn't get a chance to build it.

133
00:12:57,250 --> 00:13:08,610
This is a very small project to improve a drainage channel that runs along the side of Taylor Road to prevent erosion and make sure that the storm water conveying system is working as well as it can.

134
00:13:10,970 --> 00:13:29,930
This is a relatively new annual program that we've been or project that we've been putting in the CIP to ensure that we're working to basically implement accessibility improvements around town and our public facilities to ensure compliance.

135
00:13:30,470 --> 00:13:38,990
This was something that we had in the budget this year and we didn't get a chance to start it, but we're going to embark on this coming fiscal year.

136
00:13:38,990 --> 00:13:42,130
And it is of note that during our street improvement projects,

137
00:13:42,650 --> 00:13:46,650
when we're out paving streets, we do accessibility improvements as well,

138
00:13:46,970 --> 00:13:49,990
replacing curb ramps and other features to bring them up to ADA compliance.

139
00:13:49,990 --> 00:13:52,250
So this is more focused on town owned facilities.

140
00:13:54,910 --> 00:13:56,810
This is another kind of exciting project.

141
00:13:58,130 --> 00:14:01,810
We recently were awarded a grant from the Department of Energy and

142
00:14:01,810 --> 00:14:07,770
bring clean energy to put in a battery storage system at the Tebron police station.

143
00:14:07,770 --> 00:14:12,610
And the idea is that it would help to reduce our reliance on the grid during peak energy

144
00:14:12,610 --> 00:14:14,530
usage or consumption times.

145
00:14:14,930 --> 00:14:19,210
And basically maximize the solar array that we have that we put in a couple of years

146
00:14:19,210 --> 00:14:19,770
ago.

147
00:14:20,030 --> 00:14:27,010
It's pictured here over the parking lot facing Tiveron Boulevard and basically will allow for

148
00:14:27,010 --> 00:14:33,290
us to produce loads on the grid during peak times and also to assist us for some resiliency

149
00:14:35,230 --> 00:14:37,250
during power outages and other things,

150
00:14:37,470 --> 00:14:39,890
basically making our diesel generator the last resort.

151
00:14:42,100 --> 00:14:44,240
This is a project that's been talked about for many years,

152
00:14:44,340 --> 00:14:45,900
and we're getting really close to starting.

153
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:47,860
This is something that we've been working on

154
00:14:47,860 --> 00:14:48,980
with the county of Marin.

155
00:14:49,460 --> 00:14:50,520
It's the Blackhees pasture,

156
00:14:50,740 --> 00:14:52,400
or Greenwood Beach Beach Restoration.

157
00:14:52,620 --> 00:14:53,960
Right there at Blackhees pasture.

158
00:14:54,460 --> 00:14:57,520
It's a project to restore the shoreline there.

159
00:14:58,380 --> 00:14:59,720
We are getting ready.

160
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:20,580
And it's not a, we're not putting in a sandy beach per se, like you would think when you go out to the coast, but it's more to prevent erosion and really increase resiliency in this area, where I believe putting the project out to bid, or it is out to bid now, I'd have to check with David, but this will be rolling pretty soon.

161
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,060
And that's grant fund, I think, fully grant fund, or mostly grant funded.

162
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,480
This is a project that's been talked about for quite some time.

163
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:35,160
The corporation yard for anyone who's been there is a building that's around, I think it's

164
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,280
over 100 years old now and it's the site of the old Hillary to dairy.

165
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,880
It's an old farmhouse that has served as many lives before.

166
00:15:44,140 --> 00:15:47,580
It was a corporation yard and it was part of the dairy.

167
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:53,400
It's been the corporation yard, I think since, yes, 69 and there's been a desire to

168
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:58,660
look at this project again. There's a lot of reasons why we think that this building should

169
00:15:58,660 --> 00:16:07,420
be reconstructed. So this coming year we're proposing to do an RFQ to basically look at it again,

170
00:16:07,500 --> 00:16:13,600
figure out what we can do with the site. We've explored options over the years, but it seems

171
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:20,840
like there's some momentum to look at this again for our ability to function and function efficiently

172
00:16:22,580 --> 00:16:26,240
and have a facility that's up to current codes and seismic standards.

173
00:16:29,370 --> 00:16:34,050
Elifant Rock is another structure and feature that we've looked at on and off again over the years.

174
00:16:34,530 --> 00:16:38,850
It's something that's been in use for quite some time.

175
00:16:39,010 --> 00:16:44,410
We recently completed a seismic or not a seismic excuse me.

176
00:16:45,650 --> 00:16:52,090
A structural analysis, every couple years, we have a consultant look at it to make sure that it's in a safe operating condition.

177
00:16:52,890 --> 00:16:59,910
And to make sure that we're doing everything we can to keep it in operation, recently, it was

178
00:16:59,910 --> 00:17:05,310
this year we had a consultant look at it and they said it's still still able to be used

179
00:17:05,310 --> 00:17:09,530
safely, but that we may want to start thinking about what to do in the future in terms

180
00:17:09,530 --> 00:17:15,550
of repairs or reconstruction, so we put in significant amount of money for this proposed

181
00:17:15,550 --> 00:17:20,850
for this fiscal year to reconstruct a lot of the major elements of the elephant rock

182
00:17:20,850 --> 00:17:26,090
that have degraded due to salt water, just a harsh marine environment.

183
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,620
This is another very small project that's been,

184
00:17:30,620 --> 00:17:32,820
that was on the list this year that we didn't get to.

185
00:17:33,020 --> 00:17:36,600
It's to rehabilitate the gazebo that some of you may have seen out by

186
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,260
McKegney Field and McKegney Green.

187
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,720
It's a typical maintenance of an older structure that has a bunch of wood rot

188
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,280
and other things that need to be repaired.

189
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,480
So we're going to have a contractor spruce it all up

190
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,140
and get it ready for the next 20 or 30 years of service.

191
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,480
The Parks amenities final design.

192
00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,580
This has been something that David Issue has been working really hard on with a couple

193
00:18:00,580 --> 00:18:07,420
of our design consultants to put designs together as directed by town council for a couple

194
00:18:07,420 --> 00:18:09,000
of our park sites.

195
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:17,200
This project in particular covers the final design for Cyprus Hollow Park and the former

196
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:18,380
RBSD pond site.

197
00:18:18,380 --> 00:18:22,340
So this effort basically would get us to 100% plans

198
00:18:22,340 --> 00:18:24,660
so that we could have a bit of a set of documents

199
00:18:24,660 --> 00:18:27,240
and plans to advertise for contractors

200
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:31,140
to submit proposals to construct as designed.

201
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,060
It's another project that was on the list this year,

202
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,600
and I think you could probably see the recurring theme

203
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,540
of maintenance of our existing facilities here.

204
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:42,880
This is life-earned stone tower

205
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:44,940
that the town is responsible for maintaining.

206
00:18:45,060 --> 00:18:47,920
It's on the National Historic or National Register

207
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:53,960
historic places, it's out on Paradise Drive, and the roof has passed its useful life, and we

208
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:59,760
were trying to get to it this year, but didn't have time, so we put it back in the CIP for this

209
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:08,000
coming year, and it's replaced the roof, and of course we'll follow all required standards and rules

210
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:12,240
around making sure that it's all done correctly to preserve the historic nature of that facility.

211
00:19:15,430 --> 00:19:21,250
This is another project that we're going to look at right here in our backyard if they

212
00:19:21,250 --> 00:19:26,270
share town hall library parking lot, and there is the desire to expand the parking

213
00:19:26,270 --> 00:19:33,130
in this area to add an additional row of parking for more capacity for those that don't

214
00:19:33,130 --> 00:19:38,170
know the parking lot here next door to town hall is owned privately and is not owned by

215
00:19:38,170 --> 00:19:43,330
the town, so there's a desire to make sure that we have enough parking facilities for both

216
00:19:43,330 --> 00:19:45,750
of our both the town hall and the library.

217
00:19:49,260 --> 00:19:52,920
This is something I'll thank Sherry for this to remind me

218
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,640
to have us put in the seismic assessment

219
00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,620
for our town owned critical facilities to ensure that,

220
00:20:00,620 --> 00:20:02,960
and I think this was, it says it in the description,

221
00:20:03,500 --> 00:20:05,340
but we're required to do this

222
00:20:05,940 --> 00:20:09,220
and as part of our local hazard mitigation plan,

223
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,260
and I think that 2040 general plan.

224
00:20:11,820 --> 00:20:13,440
So we're going to have a consultant look

225
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:19,440
all of our town owned facilities and it's town hall, police station, corporation yard,

226
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,320
dairynull, and we may even look at, I think we're going to look at maybe the railroad museum,

227
00:20:24,500 --> 00:20:28,460
which is also owned by the town. I'm trying to think of what else. But anyways, to take a look at

228
00:20:28,460 --> 00:20:35,220
everything and make sure it's up the speed and seismically safe for, we need to make improvements,

229
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,620
we'll cross that bridge, we'll make it there.

230
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,060
Kind of a boring one. For compliance purposes,

231
00:20:42,060 --> 00:20:47,300
we have some backflow preventers that we need to install it some of our facilities to bring them up

232
00:20:47,300 --> 00:20:51,400
to current code based on the changing water quality requirements.

233
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,820
And lastly, this is actually

234
00:20:55,820 --> 00:21:00,880
was recently talked about I think at the last council meeting with David Issue and Parametrics

235
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:08,060
are consultants to go into a pilot program to look at adaptive technologies at at least one intersection

236
00:21:08,060 --> 00:21:14,160
on Tiberon Boulevard to try to reduce congestion and manage the signal controllers more intelligently.

237
00:21:14,380 --> 00:21:18,680
There's a lot of new technology out there that other agencies have explored and had some

238
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:25,040
success with. So, Tiberon Boulevard is a call-trans owned and operated right of way, but there's

239
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:29,660
been a local, strong local desire to look at the way these signals operate and see if there's anything

240
00:21:29,660 --> 00:21:36,100
that we can do better to try to reduce congestion. So, this will explore that. I believe the

241
00:21:36,100 --> 00:21:40,780
on Boulevard at Tessel Glenn intersection and I can't remember if they're in the other intersections.

242
00:21:41,020 --> 00:21:44,500
We're looking at but it's the beginning of a pilot program and partnership with CalTrans.

243
00:21:47,100 --> 00:21:51,540
That's the list of projects and our recommended action is to adopt the motion finding the draft

244
00:21:51,540 --> 00:21:58,420
CIP is consistent with the goals and policies of the Tibrod General Plan and happy to answer any

245
00:21:58,420 --> 00:22:01,260
questions if they're ready. Right. Thank you.

246
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,300
There's a lot going on here. I mean, or there will be a lot

247
00:22:06,300 --> 00:22:12,360
going on. So thanks so much. So what I opened up to my fellow commissioners is to see if anybody

248
00:22:12,360 --> 00:22:19,420
has questions to do staff? I'd just like to thank you for the work that you did and also for the

249
00:22:19,420 --> 00:22:26,260
beautiful photographs. I always find to see all the best pictures of Tiberon laid out, but I didn't

250
00:22:26,260 --> 00:22:32,780
have any specific questions. I was fun to see the traffic light since that was just an arc news story.

251
00:22:32,780 --> 00:22:43,280
Yes, well done, Francesco. So it was good to see that actually put into action. But nothing came to mind. Thank you.

252
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:49,020
I have no questions either. I had one question just on the bike path.

253
00:22:50,140 --> 00:22:54,780
I saw the Trestal Glen Boulevard, et cetera. That's been there for a long time.

254
00:22:54,780 --> 00:22:59,920
uh, the, the, the, uh, to put a bike lane there, is that kind of happened this year?

255
00:23:01,930 --> 00:23:03,150
It was like your first slide.

256
00:23:03,630 --> 00:23:05,270
Oh, let's go back to real quick.

257
00:23:05,430 --> 00:23:06,910
It's like your first first first slide.

258
00:23:07,070 --> 00:23:12,770
I think what I put in that slide was a list of recommendations, and I, I think that's maybe older version.

259
00:23:12,770 --> 00:23:14,690
It says there's stressful Glenn and class two,

260
00:23:14,710 --> 00:23:16,230
stressful Glenn Boulevard, et cetera.

261
00:23:16,370 --> 00:23:17,410
So I just noticed that.

262
00:23:17,450 --> 00:23:22,730
Yeah, my, my error on that a lot of these were recommendations made in the 2016 bike and ped master plan,

263
00:23:22,730 --> 00:23:29,470
is an older slide that I just put some generic but some recommendations. But there's no plans right now

264
00:23:29,470 --> 00:23:38,370
to do so it's not okay to have specific. Okay, great, thank you. Okay, so we'll just bring it back to the

265
00:23:38,370 --> 00:23:45,130
commission here any any comments. Yeah, that's right. Sorry, we need to open up the comments. Thank you

266
00:23:45,130 --> 00:23:50,190
commissioner William. Is there anybody in the public comments on Zoom or here in the room?

267
00:23:51,110 --> 00:23:52,130
Is that fair?

268
00:23:52,130 --> 00:23:53,750
Here, Mayor, we have no public comments.

269
00:23:54,010 --> 00:23:54,670
Okay, great.

270
00:23:54,690 --> 00:23:55,230
Thank you.

271
00:23:55,530 --> 00:23:57,710
So we'll bring it back to the commission here for the liberation.

272
00:23:59,130 --> 00:24:00,130
It's Commissioner Williams.

273
00:24:00,550 --> 00:24:01,230
I'll start with you.

274
00:24:01,730 --> 00:24:01,770
Yeah.

275
00:24:02,210 --> 00:24:04,150
Yeah, no, this is always my favorite day of the year.

276
00:24:04,930 --> 00:24:06,930
Just because it's sort of government and action,

277
00:24:06,970 --> 00:24:09,630
more specifically the Department of Public Works and action,

278
00:24:10,410 --> 00:24:15,590
we're really lucky to have everyone on this on this,

279
00:24:15,590 --> 00:24:19,470
this town staff, but certainly on public work staff.

280
00:24:19,470 --> 00:24:26,650
I think I know I take you all for granted and this is the day when I don't, I don't want to do that.

281
00:24:26,790 --> 00:24:31,250
I really want to acknowledge and commend you for the hard work that you do to keep this town really beautiful.

282
00:24:31,850 --> 00:24:36,630
And also, I know this is just our role here is to determine if it's consistent with the general plan,

283
00:24:36,770 --> 00:24:44,570
but I did note that just looking at your budgets, how economical and reasonable and these budgets are,

284
00:24:44,570 --> 00:24:51,910
Which must take a lot of a lot of planning and thinking and hard work and also the grant funding that you're getting for so many of these projects

285
00:24:51,910 --> 00:24:59,370
And so I know a lot of time goes into applying for grants and you know to be awarded grants that reflects a lot of work behind the scenes as well. So

286
00:25:00,310 --> 00:25:02,570
Just really appreciate to have

287
00:25:02,570 --> 00:25:07,710
Glad I noticed we had a public works day day to celebrate so I was really happy to see that

288
00:25:08,910 --> 00:25:14,030
And yeah, thank you so much for all the hard work that you did. Thank you. And if I may add to the kudos there

289
00:25:14,570 --> 00:25:21,090
something else special about Patrick as he tends to bring in projects that are at budget or under

290
00:25:21,090 --> 00:25:21,450
budgets.

291
00:25:21,830 --> 00:25:22,570
I could see that.

292
00:25:22,650 --> 00:25:28,470
I mean, I'm really striking, you know, it was incredible that so much good work is being

293
00:25:28,470 --> 00:25:30,350
done for such reasonable amounts.

294
00:25:30,470 --> 00:25:35,470
I don't know how you manage that, but the other thing, when are we going to get you a new corporation

295
00:25:35,470 --> 00:25:36,150
yard?

296
00:25:36,570 --> 00:25:41,770
I've been on the planning mission for over 10 years and it's been on it's been on in the capital

297
00:25:41,770 --> 00:25:45,710
prevent plan for that amount of time. I visited the corporate

298
00:25:45,710 --> 00:25:49,970
yard. It's really clear that it's outdated to me. I mean, I'll be interested

299
00:25:49,970 --> 00:25:54,030
to see what the seismic assessment shows. I just think it's

300
00:25:54,030 --> 00:25:57,550
shameful to be honest that you all have to work in those conditions

301
00:25:57,550 --> 00:26:03,890
and I really really love to see the town prioritize your working

302
00:26:03,890 --> 00:26:07,670
conditions because you do so much for us and it's just frustrating

303
00:26:07,670 --> 00:26:14,170
to see this come up again and nothing's being done. So I'm glad to see it, but I'd love to

304
00:26:14,170 --> 00:26:23,130
see something happening soon. As would we, so thank you. Thank you, Commissioner Woodward.

305
00:26:23,950 --> 00:26:36,210
I guess just tacking on to that. What's the process? Obviously, you guys have $150,000 to do the

306
00:26:36,210 --> 00:26:42,830
Commissioner Williams said this has been on the docket for many years. What happens is it go to

307
00:26:42,830 --> 00:26:48,810
town council and get shot down or you just don't get prioritized over other things just curious how

308
00:26:48,810 --> 00:26:53,850
that works. The challenge regarding the corporation yard project is it's something that's very expensive

309
00:26:53,850 --> 00:27:00,130
and for you know a town of our size it's a very major funding commitment to build a new project and we

310
00:27:00,130 --> 00:27:05,690
looked at it last. I think it's been around five years now and I remember Eric and I met out there.

311
00:27:05,690 --> 00:27:07,550
It's probably been a few years now.

312
00:27:08,550 --> 00:27:11,850
And most recently, when it kind of came back onto our radar,

313
00:27:12,090 --> 00:27:16,050
we've explored looking at the design build type of project

314
00:27:16,050 --> 00:27:20,210
delivery method, which really, the whole purpose of it

315
00:27:20,210 --> 00:27:23,550
is you have firms, teams, compete, teams

316
00:27:23,550 --> 00:27:26,670
that consist of architects, and contractors that team up

317
00:27:26,670 --> 00:27:27,610
in submit proposals.

318
00:27:27,950 --> 00:27:29,450
And the idea is that you're doing a lot of,

319
00:27:29,570 --> 00:27:31,510
as much value engineering as you can,

320
00:27:31,750 --> 00:27:34,450
to be able to deliver a project that meets the needs

321
00:27:34,450 --> 00:27:41,350
of the owner us. Well, you know, making compromises where needed to bring in the project

322
00:27:41,350 --> 00:27:45,430
at whatever the desired budget is. Timber on fire protection district is rebuilding

323
00:27:45,430 --> 00:27:50,810
their timber on fire station 10 on the corner of Tressel Glen and Paradise Drive. They're

324
00:27:50,810 --> 00:27:55,910
utilizing that project delivery method. The large per library was just completed. They did

325
00:27:55,910 --> 00:28:02,530
the same thing. So a lot of municipalities are going that route and our hope is that no fence

326
00:28:02,530 --> 00:28:07,290
the planning commission, but that we don't necessarily want to win the award or be on a cover

327
00:28:07,290 --> 00:28:14,410
of any architectural magazines. We just want something that's seismically sound up to code

328
00:28:14,410 --> 00:28:19,730
that won't collapse in an earthquake. So that's the goal. This to be a very utilitarian

329
00:28:19,730 --> 00:28:25,650
building that serves staff because during any type of an emergency, that's when we're expected

330
00:28:25,650 --> 00:28:30,810
to go to work and we want to make sure that we have a building that serves as such. So we're hoping

331
00:28:30,810 --> 00:28:36,030
that we can start to advance that project but again it's a really significant capital expenditure

332
00:28:36,030 --> 00:28:41,730
for the town and there's a lot of draws to the limited reserves we have so it's a matter

333
00:28:41,730 --> 00:28:48,390
of figuring out how it falls into that all those other competing priorities got it.

334
00:28:48,490 --> 00:28:54,710
Well given that you're doing the climate way circulation improvements and the ORT bridge and

335
00:28:55,430 --> 00:29:10,610
that whole area, it feels like that that should sort of be included, but anyway, well, if we can be helpful, obviously, but I'll just echo Commissioner Williams sentiments, thank you for everything that you and the team does for us and get the town looking beautiful.

336
00:29:10,890 --> 00:29:12,190
No, they're coming. Thank you.

337
00:29:12,970 --> 00:29:20,150
Yeah, I go with my fellow fellow commissioners as well. I mean, thank you so much for first of all for coming for presenting this.

338
00:30:00,270 --> 00:30:10,610
The amazing number of projects actually that go on in the town. That's actually not that big. And there's a lot that gets done here. So it's a tremendous amount of improvement.

339
00:30:12,010 --> 00:30:19,910
And I also noticed what Commissioner Williams said that there's a number of projects that you'd be able to get grants, which is great, whether it's the police department.

340
00:30:19,910 --> 00:30:22,450
And, you know, that was great there.

341
00:30:22,630 --> 00:30:26,290
I mean, so it's, that's, of course, it saves a lot of money,

342
00:30:26,390 --> 00:30:28,890
but it's also, it makes these projects happen.

343
00:30:29,210 --> 00:30:32,470
I mean, in the first place, given that the budget is limited in the town.

344
00:30:32,990 --> 00:30:36,590
And at the end, it's all about prioritization, a lot of it.

345
00:30:36,630 --> 00:30:40,270
And I guess that's really to just the project that we just talked about.

346
00:30:40,510 --> 00:30:44,590
I think that enables some projects to get done and then get done faster.

347
00:30:45,850 --> 00:30:49,570
And yeah, I'm also excited to kind of see the project around

348
00:30:52,550 --> 00:30:55,930
the traffic lights and to see whether it's going to work or not.

349
00:30:56,210 --> 00:31:01,290
I think we've talked many times over the years here in the planning commission about things

350
00:31:01,290 --> 00:31:06,630
related to traffic, liberal Boulevard, so it's great to see that there's some progress

351
00:31:06,630 --> 00:31:11,650
in the town council of the proof, something, and hopefully the pilot is successful.

352
00:31:12,150 --> 00:31:15,990
It was successful in a couple of town, there's a, I think it was San and Salmo that they've

353
00:31:15,990 --> 00:31:19,050
done it and was successful there, so hopefully it will be successful here as well.

354
00:31:19,050 --> 00:31:28,370
So thank you. Thank you. All right with that I'll take I think we're ready to take a motion to approve kind of the CIP.

355
00:31:28,530 --> 00:31:40,910
I'm happy to make the motion finding that the draft capital improvement plan is consistent with the goals policies programs and objectives of the general plan.

356
00:31:40,910 --> 00:31:44,270
I get second that. Can we take a vote?

357
00:31:44,490 --> 00:31:44,770
We're all.

358
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,520
Commissioner Williams. Hi.

359
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:52,560
Vice Chair Woodward. Hi.

360
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:54,660
Chair Amir. Hi.

361
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:01,800
Motion is approved. And with that, there is no other items on the agenda.

362
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,400
So we're adjourned. So thank you so much. And have a great day.
