On April 30, 2021, the City issued a Request for Ideas for the Reuse and Reactivation of the Bank of America Building (“RFI”).

Ordinance amending Chapter 12.16 of the Sausalito Municipal Code “Noise Control” to prohibit the use of gasoline powered landscape equipment. Presentation from Andrew Davidson, Sr. Civil Engineer, City of Sausalito Public Works Department. Council heard the first reading of Ordinance No. 1290 Amending Chapter 12.16 of The Sausalito Municipal Code “Noise Control” to prohibit the use of gasoline powered landscape equipment. The Sausalito Sustainability Committee recommended the Sausalito City Council to adopt an ordinance to restrict and/or to eliminate the use of gas-powered landscape equipment. Prohibition includes leaf blowers, lawn mowers, weed trimmers and chain saws. The Sustainability Commission recommended incorporating language into Chapter 12.16 “Noise Control” of the SMC to address the ban. Technically, the proposed restrictions could be incorporated into Title 11 “Environmental Protection” of Sausalito’s Municipal code since the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions can fall under this title. However, staff has prepared the necessary changes to Chapter 12.16 like other jurisdictions in the County. Council questions followed. Further clarification provided by the Chair and Member of Sustainability Committee, Lauren Wylie and Mark Palmer. Council directed staff to make some changes. Second reading of will be heard at the next schedule City Council meeting of August 30, 2022. Public Comments There were no public comments.

COUNCILMEMBER COMMITTEE REPORTS City of Sausalito continues to work to secure and have been successful in obtaining additional revenues through various sources. Mayor Kellman highlighted recent successes in securing additional funding through several initiatives, namely: County of Marin has committed to match the funding amount from the State to assist with the ever increasing encampment expenditures. This commitment was secured through successful initiative instigated by Vice Mayor Blaustein and Councilmember Hoffman. Through her unwavering commitment, Councilmember Hoffman has successfully encouraged RBRA to abandon the costly project of Mooring Field. RBRA staff would have the option of redirecting funds to other expenses related to alternative housing to relocate people living in boats on the anchorage. As instigated and encouraged by Councilmember Cleveland-Knowles, the City will receive reimbursement against expenses incurred by the 2019 landslide on Sausalito Boulevard. With continuing hard work by Councilmembers, Mayor and Working Group members, the City of Sausalito has recently secured $1M state funding earmarked for Sea Level Rising Resiliency and Vulnerability Planning Program. Mayor Kellman and Councilmember Sobieski continue to work on improving parking fee structure to increase revenue. New EV Chargers is among future revenue generation program for Sausalito.
