Respectfully submitted, John Lerner, Chair, Sausalito Parks and Recreation Commission 4 Parks & Recreation Department 289-4152 www.cityofsausalitospecialevents.com COMMUNITY: ANNOUNCEMENTS Sausalito’s Newly Enhanced Smoking Regulations The State of California’s current regulations ban smoking in all enclosed workplaces in California, including restaurants and bars with few exemptions; California bill AB846 bans smoking within 20 feet of the entrance or operable window of a public building, the law also prohibits smoking in state owned vehicles. All cities are required to enforce these state regulations. Until recently the City’s smoking regulations, adopted in 1994, were similar to that of the State of California. However, like many other cities in Marin County, Sausalito has recently updated the Clean Indoor Air and Health Protection Ordinance including many ideas provided by the American Lung Association and the Marin County Department of Health and Human Services. In July of 2012, the City Council adopted new Smoking Regulations which includes all regulations set by the State of California, and in addition, have increased Sausalito’s smokefree regulations throughout the City. The intent of the change in the Smoking Regulations is to discourage the inherently dangerous behavior of smoking around nontobacco users and to protect children from exposure to smoking and tobacco. The regulations will protect the public from nonconsensual exposure to secondhand smoke and tobacco-related litter and pollution and by affirming an open atmosphere of the City’s public places. The approved amendments have been made to the Sausalito Municipal Code and will regulate smoking in multi-unit housing residences including common areas, private balconies, porches, decks and patios. The amendments allow private individuals the right to enforce the smoking regulations. In addition, the amendments establish smoke-free areas, including public streets and parks; outdoor dining areas for restaurants; marina facilities; and recreation and special events. Specific areas that smoking will be prohibited are as follows: • Multi-Unit Residences • Multi-Unit Housing Common Areas • Marina Facilities including docks, piers and docked boats, vessels and house boats • Within 20 feet from any entrance, opening or exit of any enclosed area, including windows • Within 20 feet of service lines (ATMs, ticket lines, bus stops, transit shelters, ferry terminals and cab stands) • Within 20 feet of working road, building and construction crews • Recreational areas (playgrounds, sporting facilities, children’s play areas and rinks) • Public events including, sport events, entertainment, speaking performances, ceremonies, pageants, fairs and farmers markets • Minimum of 80% of guest rooms in every hotel, motel and bedand-breakfast facilities must be permanently designated as completely non-smoking • Any place where food and/or drink is offered for sale, including outdoor areas of restaurants, bars and farmers markets In addition the regulations state: • No person shall dispose of smoking waste or tobacco waste within the boundaries of an area in which smoking is prohibited • No person shall place or cause to be placed any ashtray, tobacco ash collector or receptacle in any area designated a non-smoking area While the outdoor smoke-free provisions have already taken effect, starting in early September 2012, some affected parties are given lead-time to take specific actions. • 120 days: Landlords of existing multi-family units, who choose to designate fewer than 100% of the units as nonsmoking have 120 days after approval of the ordinance to submit a description of each designated nonsmoking unit sufficient to identify the Unit, and a diagram depicting the location of the designated nonsmoking Units in relation to all other Units. • 270 days: Homeowner membership of existing common interest multi-unit housing complexes, must vote on the threshold question of allowing less than one hundred percent (100%) of Units to be designated nonsmoking Units • 1 year: Landlords of multi-unit housing, Homeowners Associations of condominiums and townhouses have one year to comply with all requirements of the Ordinance. To assist the multi-unit housing property owners and residents implement the updated smoking regulations, a Sample Smoke Free Lease Addendum is currently on the City’s website, www.ci.sausalito. ca.us/Index.aspx?page=3. The Addendum will help property owners and residents understand their rights and ease the transition in to the new regulations. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the City’s new Smoking Regulations, please contact Assistant Planner, Alison Thornberry-Assef at 289-4131 during normal business hours.

The and Recreation’s Annual Sausalicious! 2012 60th annual Sausalito Art Festival, which will take place Labor Day Weekend, September 1-3 at Marinship Park. Locals and visitors alike know that the Festival’s high-energy ambience electrifies the village of Sausalito for three days every year, transforming it into a “Camelot” of art and community. One of the oldest, most prestigious and most looked-forward-to Art Festivals in the country—for 60 years the Sausalito Art Festival has set the standard for quality, variety, innovation and sheer scope of artists.

New this year is an innovative participatory, juried art competition and exhibition open to all.

This year’s event will be held in the historic Liberty Ship Building at 10 Liberty Ship Way in the Marinship. Local artists will open their studios to the public some for the first time, allowing guests to view works in progress as well as ongoing collections. Guests can stroll the studios while enjoying the best epicurean delights from Sausalito’s finest restaurants. Live local music and an exciting silent auction round out the evening’s festivities. Sausalicious is supported by local restaurants presenting their best dishes. This is a chance to explore some of the best Sausalito culinary delights all in one location. Community support of Willow Creek Academy has helped it grow from 37 students when it opened in 2001 to over 250 this past year. Willow Creek Academy has ranked in the top 6 Charter Schools in California—an impressive achievement among the over 800 charter schools in California. The API scores have consistently placed Willow Creek above the average for Marin County Schools. These achievements help stem the flow of young families leaving our community as their young children approach school age. Willow Creek Academy now offers families a viable and achievement based education opportunity. All of this success requires continued community support and involvement. Attending this annual event is one way to continue the success of our community’s public charter school. Sausalicious 2012 will be held on November 10th from 5:00 -7:00 pm at 10 Liberty Ship Way. Tickets are $25.00 per person and can be purchased on line at www.willowcreekacademy.org or at the event. All proceeds benefit Willow Creek Academy and Robin Sweeny Park and Playground.

COMMUNITY: ANNOUNCEMENTS An Update from Sausalito’s Japan Sister City It’s been a busy summer for Sausalito’s Japan Sister City organization! Beginning in late May, the Sister City hosted Sakaide Mayor Hiroshi Aya when he came to celebrate the Golden Gate Bridge’s 75th birthday. During his visit, Mayor Aya along with Japan Consul-General Hiroshi Inomata and City Council Members honored the late Amy Belser by planting a cherry tree—a gift from the Japanese Consulate—in Gabrielson Park (See photo). In late June, Susan Roe, Chair of the Japan Sister City, was invited to participate in a 3-day celebration of Sakaide’s 70th anniversary. Continuing the traditional student exchange between our two cities, Sausalito’s Sister City hosted 13 Sakaide high school students and 2 chaperones from July 26th until Aug 5. The theme of the 2012 visit was ABC, incorporating the many educational and social activities in which the students participated: A for Art—art, music and dancing; B for Balance—‘rock building,’ a Marin Mammal Center educational tour and other eco-friendly projects for teaching about planet earth; and C for Culture—learning about Sausalito’s history and the waterfront and the “American lifestyle” experiences of living with local families who provided their homestay accommodations. Thanks to the many Chamber of Commerce members and others who provided classes, entertainment, meals and lodging, including Lorna Newlin of Sausalito Pottery, Doree Clark of Stage Dor Dance Studio, Teens Turning Green, Casa Madrona Hotel, Spinnaker, Sushi Ran, Sausalito Yacht Club, Feng Nian, Dario’s, Caffe DiVino and Venice Gourmet. The visiting students were also treated to visits to San Francisco’s Academy of Science and the Japanese Consulate, Six Flags and Muir Woods, a Giants game, a Cavallo Point Cooking Class and a variety of art-based sessions with local artists. Their visit concluded with a farewell celebration at the Sausalito Yacht Club where they performed dances learned during their visit. The Sister City will have a food booth again this year at the Sausalito Arts Festival. The Sister City Board and Committee members, as well as “Sister City student alumni” and their families, will once again be serving their popular Japanese Udon noodles. Anyone wishing to volunteer for a 2-hour shift is asked to contact Susan Roe at sroe. clark@gmail.com. All are welcomed! Next year marks the 25th year of the Sister City relationship between Sausalito and Sakaide. Plans are already underway to recognize and celebrate the occasion from July 1-5, 2013! Stay tuned . . . Community Newsletter 415-289-4152 7 COMMUNITY: ANNOUNCEMENTS Sausalito Village Sausalito Village is dedicated to providing practical assistance, social connections, and resources that enable our members to stay independent and supported in their Sausalito homes as long as possible, as they grow older. Sausalito Village is operated by an all volunteer steering committee under the umbrella of Marin Village, a California non-profit organization with I.R.S. 501(c)(3) status. There are no age limitations, but most members are 60 or older. A key element of membership in Sausalito Village is a single telephone number that you can call to request assistance and referrals to the types of services and support you require. Most of our referrals are to a dedicated team of more than 50 volunteers, all of whom have been thoroughly vetted and passed a background check. These volunteers are available to provide services such as transportation to the Airporter, shopping, and doctor’s appointments, help with small household repairs, computer training and support, and respite and support for caregivers. At the request of a member, trained volunteers will do a safety assessment of the member’s home, make recommendations for modifications that can be taken to reduce risks, and refer the member to volunteer and/or paid service providers to accomplish these modifications. A health care advocacy group, consisting of volunteers with experience in some area of the health care field, will assist members in navigating their way through the increasingly complicated health care system to ensure that their individual needs are identified and appropriately addressed. When the type of assistance needed by a member goes beyond what a volunteer can reasonably offer and requires the help of a paid professional service provider, referrals will be made to service providers whose qualifications and references have been thoroughly checked or who are personally recommended by Sausalito Village members. In addition to the service hotline, membership opens up the opportunity to become part of a vibrant community of people who 8 Community Newsletter 415-289-4152 share in many social, cultural, and recreational events. Under a grant from the Sausalito Art Festival Foundation, Sausalito Village organizes and provides transportation to many cultural programs and events in the San Francisco Bay area. Recent programs have included, among others, trips to the Stein exhibits at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the San Francisco Contemporary Jewish Museum, Filoli, a San Francisco Symphony rehearsal, and several exhibits at the De Young and the Palace of the Legion of Honor. There are also periodic member lunches at Sausalito restaurants, monthly meetings with guest speakers, a chair yoga class, a memoir group, Thursday coffee hour, a weekly bocce game, a book group, volunteer recognition events, and numerous other activities. Members of the Sausalito Village Steering Committee are: Betsy Stroman, Chair, Sharon Seymour, Vice Chair, Charlie Arenson, Mary Barter, Meg Fawcett, Lee Follett, Ann Heurlin, Felicity Kirsch, Jackie Kudler, Lois Prentice, Rick Seymour, Stella Shao, Agnes Shapiro, Dana Whitson, and Carolyn Zaroff.

A dozen visitors became new members of the Society. The Society again provided living history lessons to students from Bayside Elementary School and Willow Creek Academy this spring. The program involved approximately 40 third grade students, over a dozen SHS docents, numerous parents, school administrators and local businesses. Participating students received plaques commemorating their research work at a joint ceremony on June 4. Have you heard those “Secret Sausalito History” spots on Radio Sausalito (1610 AM)? They’re produced by the Society with tidbits from our archives. If you’d like a PowerPoint presentation on this secret history for your group, contact info@sausalitohistoricalsociety.org. Three officers were elected to additional one-year terms by the SHS Board in June. Larry Clinton, Sharon Seymour and Linda Sempliner were re-elected as president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. Board member Donald Sibbett was elected vice president. In conjunction with Spaulding Wooden Boat Center, SHS docents are giving guided boat tours of the Sausalito waterfront one Saturday per month. These free tours depart four times a day during Spaulding’s monthly open house receptions, and everyone is welcome to participate. Upcoming tours are scheduled for August 18 and September 29, departing hourly from 11am–3pm. Space is limited. Call 332-3179 or 289-4117 for more information. Be sure to visit the Society’s exhibition of Phil Frank cartoons that ran weekly in the Marin Scope from 1977-1984: FRITZ (THE COMIC WIT OF PHIL FRANK) CRACKERS. The exhibition is open to the public through the end of the year on Wednesdays and Saturdays at the Society’s newly renovated Exhibition Gallery on the second floor of Sausalito City Hall, 420 Litho St. The Ice House at 780 Bridgeway carries many gift items suitable for locals, their friends and family. It’s open Tuesday through Sunday from 11:30am to 4pm. Step back to a dramatic time in Sausalito history by touring the Marinship exhibit at the Bay Model. This display of photographs, paintings and actual artifacts from the WWII ships and yard was developed by the staff of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Bay Model Visitor Center and the SHS.

The Friends just celebrated their 50th anniversary of supporting our beloved Library. How do the Friends support the Library? Typically, the Friends fund the Library’s “wish list” covering such items as ereaders, the Speaker Series, computer classes, museum passes, and children’s programs. The Friends have also contributed significantly to the book budget. And Friends volunteers provided approximately 300 hours of help at the circulation desk. How can you support the Friends? There are several ways you can help—and all of them are greatly appreciated. Membership dues, donations, and book sales are the major sources of income. You can also be a very valuable volunteer. Here’s more information: Membership New Friends are always welcome—and needed! As a member of the Friends, your support is important. We are blessed to have a wonderful Library here in Sausalito and by continuing to pull together we can keep it that way. Membership forms are available at the Library’s circulation desk and online at friendsofthesausalitolibrary.org, where you can now donate with PayPal. You can also email fosl94965@gmail.com. BOOKSTORE Have you visited the Friends’ bookstore lately? It’s just upstairs from the Library and always receiving new inventory. The store offers nearlynew bestsellers, gorgeous antique classics, and everything in between. Don’t miss the lavish art books, the music, and the children’s corner. Open Mondays 9am-5pm and Wednesdays and Saturdays 10am1pm. In addition, come enjoy the “Nosh-and-Browse” hour just before Speaker Series events. The Friends also maintain a book sale area in the Library, including a section dedicated to children’s books. (Even if you don’t have children, it can be fun to revisit your old favorites.) Do you have any books you would like to donate? The Friends rely on your book donations to keep the book store operating. You may drop off your donations in the Library at any time during library hours. There is a donation barrel just inside the door. Donations may also be left in the bin in the 3rd floor hallway outside the book store entrance. A cart is available to bring books in from the parking lot. If you have a large donation (multiple boxes or bags) we would be grateful if you brought them during sale hours. If you cannot plan a drop off when we are open, call Libby Wilkinson at 332-0206 and she will arrange to meet you at City Hall at your convenience. Donations are tax-deductible. VOLUNTEERS Do you have an extra couple of hours a week or even once a month? Why not spend that time amongst books and Friends! Volunteers are always needed to help with book sales and lend a helping hand in the Library. No experience is necessary; we will train you. If you would like to help with the Monday and/or Wednesday book sales, contact Libby Wilkinson at 332-0206 or libbywilkinson2@ gmail.com. For the Saturday book sales, call Mary Lou Anderson at 332-6440. You can also just drop by the bookstore when it is open and we will gladly put you to work. If you would like to volunteer in the library itself, contact Jim Delano at 215-6538 or jdelano43@comcast.net and he will be happy to schedule times that are convenient for you. However you choose to participate, your FRIENDship is always greatly appreciated! Sausalito Library Foundation FOUNDATION? FRIENDS? WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? The Sausalito Library Foundation and the Friends of the Library are independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations with a common goal. Both are dedicated to helping the library’s able staff and the Library Board of Trustees maintain the excellence of one of our most valuable community resources. In fact, the Friends established the Foundation to provide long-term support, while they handled the immediate needs of the library, particularly when the City budget was unable to provide the necessary funds. The Sausalito Library Foundation, established in 2006, is sustained with financial contributions from the community. It supports the Library through special programs and projects and helps provide long-term financial stability. In its first three years, the Foundation funded the Library’s strategic plan and the Library’s Early Childhood Services program. In partnership with others, the Foundation also underwrote a computer lab and the digitization of the Sausalito News from 1895 to 1922. A Foundation grant in 2011 enabled the hiring of a library planning and interior design firm to look at our Library’s physical space, assess its ability to serve the community, and identify strategies to (1) effectively use the space we have and 2) recommend plans for the future. The Foundation will lend its support and match funds with the Library’s capital improvements fund to move ahead with a makeover using the Library’s current footprint. We will continue to explore possibilities for a larger space. Donations and bequests to the Foundation are used to maintain a revenue source that supplements public funding and helps ensure that our Library remains a current and relevant resource for our community in the years to come. Friends of the Sausalito Public Library, founded in 1961, provides financial support for short-term needs and furnishes volunteer assistance in the Library. Volunteers also manage the Friends Bookstore on the top floor of City Hall fourteen hours a week and put in extra hours receiving, sorting, and displaying used-book donations from the community. Revenue from the book sales provides the lion’s share of income for the Friends. With Bookstore profits and membership dues, the Friends have provided ongoing support to the library when needed. FOUNDATION INFORMATION For more information about the Library Foundation, call 331-3084 or write to 420 Litho Street, Sausalito 94965.

Community Newsletter 415-289-4152 15 SCHOOL NEWS Willow Creek Academy Our 12th school year begins at the end of August and we are busy fixing up the campus, establishing a new third grade classroom (we will now have two classes each in grades Kindergarten through third grade), putting after school tutoring programs in place, and sharing what we all did over the summer. In spite of the fact we know that there will be a September heat wave (after all, this is Sausalito) we are breaking out our fall sweaters and trying to keep up with all of the Back to School excitement. This year, we will be exploring new sets of curriculum known as the Common Core standards. In the past, California had a set of rigorous curriculum standards in place which we used as our guidelines for the content that was presented. These standards were developed by California educators for California teachers and students. The Common Core standards are a national set of standards, developed by National Teaching organizations, and emphasize process as much as content. This translates to writing across the curriculum, ie there will be a strong element of science and math that involves writing; less factual content might be covered in a given grade level than before, but the learning will go deeper into causes and effects, underlying concepts, etc. English Language Arts will encompass a lot of non- 16 Community Newsletter 415-289-4152 fiction as well as technical kinds of writing and reading rather than focus only on fiction as we have in the past. These are exciting changes and our staff is working hard to rearrange and re-invent what they have worked with in the past We believe Willow Creek is well poised to take on these new standards because of our commitment to project-based learning and crossdisciplinary approaches. This summer, prior to the beginning of the school year, our teachers are participating in a variety of professional development opportunities (Arts Integration, Common Core Standards, Restorative Justice, Anti-Bullying, Childhood Creativity) and then will share their learning with each other. We are truly blessed to have an outstanding staff that always puts their students at the forefront of what they do. When a new idea is presented, the first question our teachers always have is “how does this help my kids?” Check in with us over the next several months and see what we are doing as a result of these new Core Curriculum standards. If you are interested in enrolling your child in the 2013-14 school year, please go to our website and download the enrollment forms. The next step would be to arrange for a tour of the school and make sure that you think Willow Creek would be a good fit for your child. Questions? Call us at 331-7530x202 or 201. POLICE NEWS Sausalito Police Department’s Marine Patrol Program The Sausalito Police Department’s Marine Patrol Unit was created in 2007 in response to the unusual challenges and demands of the large and diverse boating community in the waters surrounding the City of Sausalito. The Marine Patrol Unit’s resources and capabilities are dedicated to maintaining the safest possible boating environment for our residents and boating visitors. The Marine Patrol Unit routinely trains and conducts law enforcement operations with other agencies such as the United States Coast Guard, the United States Army Corps of Engineers, Marin County Sheriff’s Office, San Rafael Police Department, U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and the California Department of Fish and Game. We also partner with the Marin County Health Department doing outreach to residents in the Anchorage providing emergency packs, flu shots and resource information to those in need. In 2011 considerable effort was invested in enhancing the marine patrol program resulting in an expansion of the number of marine patrol officers, increased training, and the addition of a 26’ Safeboat, as well as the creation of a multi-agency task force that meets monthly. The Sausalito Police Department’s Marine Patrol Unit now has eight (8) members utilizing two different vessels to conduct operations. The designators for the two vessels are Marine One and Marine Two. Marine One which was acquired in 2011 is a 26’ dual engine Safeboat. Marine Two is shared with the Richardson Bay Authority and is a 23’ Munson twin hulled vessel. Marine One and Marine Two have been involved in several rescue operations, arrests, and other maritime safety/enforcement operations. The Marine Patrol Unit receives in-house training and trains jointly with the United States Coast Guard, United States Army Corps of Engineers, Marin County Sheriff’s Office, the San Rafael Police Department and the Richardson’s Bay Regional Agency. Training for the Marine Patrol Unit is comprised of, but not limited to, navigation, seamanship, boat handling, communications between vessels, boarding tactics, rescues, searches, statutory laws, tactical boat operating, helicopter operations, and towing distressed vessels. In 2011, the Sausalito Marine Patrol Unit and the United States Coast Guard’s ‘Station Golden Gate’ entered into a Memorandum of Understanding which facilitated information/intelligence sharing, coordinated training, provided for the sharing of maritime law enforcement personnel, and authorized joint operations between the two agencies. The Marine Patrol Unit and the Coast Guard are currently conducting numerous joint operations/patrols each month in order to improve safety and enhance the quality of life along the Sausalito waterfront and within Richardson’s Bay. Members of the Sausalito Marine Patrol Unit recently received acknowledgement for their rescue of four people from a small boat that had lost power and drifted hundreds of yards outside of the Golden Gate Bridge. High winds, strong tides, and large waves were pushing the small boat further out to sea when our Marine Patrol Officers were able to reach them, and safely return everyone and the disabled boat to shore without injury. The Marine Patrol Unit’s goal for 2012 is to build upon its accomplishments from 2011 and provide a higher level of service to the waterfront community. We encourage the community to partner with us in accomplishing our goal by notifying the Sausalito Police Marine Patrol Unit of any water related unusual and/or criminal incidents within the City of Sausalito waters. By partnering with us and providing information on unusual activities in the waterfront areas, including suspicious persons or boats, we can continue to keep Sausalito marinas and waterways the fun place it is where people enjoying living, working and playing all year long. If you wish to learn more about the Sausalito Police Department’s Marine Patrol Unit, please visit our website at www.ci.sausalito.ca.us/ Index.aspx?page=828 or call 289-4171. Sergeant William R.
