Sworn testimony will be presented by Keith Angerman, Building Official, Town of San Anselmo and Acevedo stated the property is currently dangerous and harmful to persons who go upon it and the potential for further sliding on the property is a violation as it may obstruct the free use oft the street below ita and threaten other properties.

Angerman stated Malik's sister acknowledged receipt of one letter to Malik and also acknowledged the fact that Malik was out of the county at the time.

Acevedo acknowledged in her conversations with the assessor's office they have stated they are in the same situation; they too are unable to contact the property owner. The assessor's office has indicated there are unpaid liens on the property as well as unpaid property taxes on the property for the past few years. Acevedo stated that no onel has been able to Condry added that when the landslide first occurred he had called the property owner and he spoke with the person who answered the phone. He spoke with the real estate agent and the next day the real estate for sale sign had been removed. Condry stated as far as he can tell the property owner is aware of the Joanne Kessel, Administrative Services Technician for the Town of San Anselmo and person recording the minutes of the meeting, swore in Keith Angerman, San Anselmo Building Official and Sean Condry, Acevedo asked Condry what his position is with the' Town of San Anselmo and what his professional Condry stated hei is the Public Works Director and the Town Engineer for the Town ofs San Anselmo and Acevedo asked Condry at when he became concerned with the property at 437 Scenic Avenue. Condry stated on March 21, 2011 he received a phone call from the San Anselmo Police Department stating there was a small landslide adjacent to 250 Scenic Avenue. Condry responded to the call and went to the site. When he arrived he saw that part of a stone wall from 437 Scenic Avenue had collapsed into the streets. This was at the back side oft the property and is adjacent to 250 Scenic Avenue. At that time Condry instructed the Town's Public Works crew to clean it up, which they did the next day. Following this he received a phone call from a neighboring property owner who said it looked like there was something else going on. Condry went back to the site and saw that the soil on the property had shifted to ad degree to where there was al landslide into the street. The soil had dropped about 2 to 3 feet about two- thirds of the way up the property. A big portion of the property, due to the March rains, had failed,  locate the property owner.  situation and he is just not handling it.

Acevedo asked'how the Town responded to the situation.  Condry stated he immediately contacted a contractor who came out and cleaned up all of the soil, mud, water and debris and installed k-rails along the property to prevent the hillside from moving further. Town staff also went to the property and installed visqueen over the soil to keep water from further  saturating thel hillside and to keep thel hill from further sliding. Acevedo asked Condry to define k-rails and visqueen.  Condry stated k-rails are the concrete barriers you typically see on a freeway to divide the lanes and each k-rail weighs a couple thousand pounds. The idea ofinstalling thel k-rails was given to him by one of the Town's consultants, Miller Pacific Engineering. Condry defined visqueen as aj plastic barrier.  Acevedo asked of the current condition of the property.  6    Minutes of San Anselmo Town Council  September 11,2012  Condry replied the property currently has the k-rails in front portion ofthe property along with the plastic tarp. Plastic tarp is falling apart. It was only a temporary measure and he is worried that when it rains again there may be potential problems. His professional judgment is that the hillside could move again if.  there arel heavy rains.  Acevedo asked Condry to speak about the storm water discharge from thej property.  Condry explained that when the site was saturated with water there was al lot ofmuddy water coming off the property which is in violation ofl Marin County Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (MCSTPPP). Ift the muddy water gets into the storm drains it can cause fish and other animals to die. Acevedo asked Condry to describe what aj permanent fix to property condition would look like. Condry explained aj permanent fix would consist ofi retaining walls on piers; also installation of ai mesh over the soil and hydro seeding on1 the top. Condry stated the work needs to be done before this winter as  two-thirds oft thel hillside has already started shifting down the hill.  Acevedo asked Keith Angerman to give his credentials and his position with the Town.  Angerman stated he is the Building Official for the Town of San Anselmo. He is a graduate of the University-of/MarylndwithaB.-inGMl-Engineringwithaspeialyinsincures-Heisaregistered Referring to Angerman's1 letter dated April 24, 2011 to Mr. Malik, Acevedo asked Angerman to describe Angerman stated a couple weeks after the slide occurred he wrote a letter to the owner informing him of the slide and advising him to contact a civil engineer to come up with design criteria in a retaining wall to stabilize the hill. There was no response to the letter. Angerman noted that in each of the letters he sent to the property owner he requested that he contact him, call him, come into Town Hall offices or contact Sean Condry. Angerman stated approximately four months later he sent another letter to Malik reminding him about the slide and the necessity to remediate the slide situation as soon as possible. Again there was no response from Malik. Approximately two months later he sent another letter to Malik, similar to the previous ones. However, this letter also included bills which the town incurred for the slide abatement work. After that particular time, giving him two weeks to thirty days to call or contact him with no  licensed engineer in California, Maryland and Alaska.  his experience regarding the correspondence and contact with Malik.  response at all it was turned over to the Town Attorney.  Acevedo asked Angerman to explain Exhibit B, the Restricted Use Notice dated May 2011.

Itisa process for an area that is unsafe, with a standard form that is put up to establish notice of a hazard. In this particular instance it was put up for restricted use meaning that it was a hazard area; do not go onto  thej property without talking to us orl having an engineer with you.  Acevedo asked Angerman what has been done to work on aj permanent fix for the property.  7    Minutes of San Anselmo Town Council  September 11,2012  Angerman stated after no response at all we: retained the services oft technical engineer to design a retaining wall. The engineering firm has designed ai retaining wall; we are ready for the next step which: is  to solicit bids for the slide remediation.  Acevedo asked Angerman ifh hel knew the approximate cost ofremediation. Angerman said the engineers estimate to repair is between $88,000 to $250,000.  Acevedo asked Angerman ifiti is his opinion the remediation needs to be donei immediately, before winter Angerman stated something has to be done as it cannot go through another winter. We have seen movement in the hill even though it was covered with a tarp. The remedial plan is a highly stable fix for the hill; it will protect the road and will protect the downhill. Angerman opined that something needs to Acevedo asked Angerman ifl he could give the sense of money that has been spent by the' Town to date.

Angerman replied the picture was taken approximately two months ago and as you can see from the  McInerney asked ift there is a house on the property.  Angerman explained the Town went thru ai nuisance abatement hearing in 2008. The house was moving and the hill was shifting; it was a danger to the neighboring properties and their structures. The Town went to Superior Court and received a Condemnation Order. The house was condemned and torn down.  8    Minutes of San Anselmo Town Council  September1 11,2012  Angerman noted the photographs clearly show the visqueen is deteriorating. Angerman said that something needs tol be done before this winter, either we need to re-do what has been done as a1 temporary  fix or do it right and install ai retaining wall, aj permanent fix.
