Shoreline CAC July 29, 2009 Meeting Highlights Page ~3 • Large full service restaurants would be located in the Mulford Point area, the northerly point of the Mulford Point Drive elbow, and the most northerly point of the site (former boat launch north of EI Torito). • The northerly edge of Mulford Point Drive would have a restaurant row of premium casual restaurants to take advantage of the Bay views. • The public event space was proposed on the south edge of Mulford Point Drive facing the inside of the existing harbor. • The EI Torito site and area to the north would have a new row of retail/mixed-use development. • The Horatio's site would be developed with a new parking structure. • The Marina Inn site would be redeveloped with a new limited service hotel. • The former Boat Works site would be earmarked for recreation (no building; green open space). • It was estimated that the proposed build out was 392,000 square feet; the proposed plan did not include professional office or residential development. In conclusion, an analysis of the three group's conceptual ideas showed that the three plans had similar amenities, developments and uses which included: • Hotel Conference Center with Banquet Facilities • New Full Service Restaurants (Large, High Quality, etc.) • Small Restaurants • Cafe/Coffee Shops • Mixed-use, Retail Sales/Services • Open Space/Plaza for Public Events • New Full Service Restaurant with Banquet Facilities • Professional Offices • Multi-Family Residential Housing • Museum/Interpretive Center • Park Space for Recreation • Parking Structure • Boat -Kayak Rentals B. Group Sharing of Conceptual Ideas with Ed Miller, Developer, and Dan Withee, Architect Discussion between the groups, Mr. Miller and Mr. Withee ensued (comments from Mr. Miller and Mr. Withee are in italic). • Group 1 explained that the buildings in its conceptual plans were intended to be lineal buildings (longer) for the public to enjoy taking a walk along side or beneath an arcade. • Group 2 clarified that the redesigned Monarch Bay roadway was intended to be narrower and adjacent to the edge of the golf course to provide greater room for the proposed parking structure and to allow a better connection to artists' lofts, the public space and the Bay Pavilion mixed-use buildings.
