CITY OF SAN LEANDRO <br />CITY COUNCIL SHORELINE -MARINA COMMITTEE <br />May 26, 2009 <br />9:00 a.m. -10:30 a.m. <br />San Leandro City Hall <br />835 East 14th Street <br />San Leandro, California <br />Sister Cities Gallery Room <br />HIGHLIGHTS <br />Committee Members: Mayor Santos, Councilmember Prola, Vice-Mayor Starosciak <br />City staff present: City Manager Hollister, Community Development Director Sims, <br />Engineering Director Udemezue, Public Works Director Bakaldin, <br />Facilities and Open Space Manager Pollart, Marina Supervisor Snodgrass, <br />Senior Development Specialist Penaranda <br />Public present: Al Fernandez, Karen Holzmeister (Bay Area Newsgroup) <br />The meeting was called to order at 9:00 a.m. <br />1. Update on Dredging <br />Director Udemezue reported that the cost would be $2.75 million to dredge the City's harbor <br />channels to a depth of five feet. An objective to maintaining this cost is to also dredge an <br />amount of material not to exceed a volume of 100,000 cubic yards. Dredging would be <br />conducted between this August and November 2009. The dredge material would be pumped to <br />the City's dredge site for decantation (drying/evaporation process for the dredged material). <br />The proposed schedule is to have the dredge material dry enough to be removed and hauled by <br />trucks to Oyster Bay Regional Park as fill material by the summer of 2011. Currently the <br />budget is $500,000 short of moving the 90,000 cubic yards. <br />The planned dredge later this year will provide navigable levels necessary for the City to <br />maintain a small boat facility. To meet the objective of the City to maintain a small boat <br />facility, dredging would be scheduled every four years. The estimated amount of material that <br />would be dredged every four years would be 40,000 cubic yards. <br />Mayor Santos stated that the City may have to consider paying for dredging and not depend on <br />State and/or Federal funding. Perhaps the City should consider de-Federalizing the channel in <br />the future if the economy improves. <br />2. Discussion on Boat Launch User Fee <br />Director Bakaldin, Manager Pollart, Marina Supervisor Snodgrass, gave a powerpoint <br />presentation reviewing the proposed boat launch fees and fee collection systems. The proposed <br />fees were $10/day, $50/season (October-March) and $100/year. The day user would receive a <br />ticket or stub to display and the season and annual user would receive sticker permits or rear <br />
