Larkspur Weighs Going Beyond State Green Building Code

The August 19 council agenda includes a workshop asking whether Larkspur should adopt voluntary building standards stricter than the state's CalGreen code.

Staff will walk the council through the current regulatory landscape for adopting higher green-building standards locally, then ask for direction on whether to draft additional rules. No specific standards are proposed yet — this is a scoping conversation, not a vote to adopt anything.

There's no public hearing tied to this item, and no property-specific stakes: it's a policy-direction discussion that could shape future construction rules citywide if the council tells staff to move forward.

Council Set to Lock In Marsh Mitigation Credits for Bon Air Bridge Project

The council will consider Resolution 63/26, authorizing a reservation agreement with Halo Ranch to secure mitigation credits for tidal marsh restoration tied to the Bon Air Road Bridge Mitigations Project (CIP 15-002).

Staff recommend adoption. The agreement effectively banks environmental mitigation credit for marsh restoration required as a condition of the bridge project, rather than the city undertaking restoration work directly.

No opposition or public comment is noted in the agenda; the item is slated for a routine vote alongside other consent and business items.
