Draft RFQ for Master Developer September 24, 2007 • A RFQ will enable the City to select a master developer based on their qualifications and past experience. The developer will then work with the community to develop a proposed plan for the shoreline area which meets the overall needs of the City. • The RFQ process markets the site to a wide variety of development interests in order to secure the most qualified developer. To provide necessary land use information to potential master developers, the City engaged Environmental Science Associates to perform an Environmental and Regulatory Constraints Assessment for the Shoreline -Marina Area. The draft report, which is scheduled for Committee review on November 13, will characterize existing environmental factors, provide information on other Bay Area marinas that have undergone or are contemplating development, and determine the environmental and regulatory constraints based on the policies and procedures of applicable agencies. The report will be forwarded to the Council for information and made available via the City's website for master developer review by the end of the calendar year. The Committee reviewed a draft RFQ for a Master Developer for the Shoreline -Marina Area at the September 11, 2007 meeting. Committee comments have been incorporated into the revised draft which is attached for City Council review and discussion.
