File Number: 12 -123 Applicable General Plan Policies • General Plan Goal 9 for the Marina and Shoreline calls for recognizing and taking advantage of the unique business amenities offered by the San Leandro Marina area. The policies and actions include pursuing development of a new hotel along with complementary uses such as restaurants and ancillary retail, office and conference facilities. Future uses and activities which provide the revenue necessary to enable continued boating operations are also encouraged. • Development of the Conceptual Master Plan is consistent with the San Leandro Marina Focus Area outline in the General Plan. • The General Plan land use map would need to be updated. This would be included as part of the entitlement process. Environmental Review The City retained a consultant to complete an Environmental and Regulatory Opportunities and Constraints Analysis in November 2007. Cursory environmental review of the Conceptual Master Plan has been completed through a fatal flaw analysis which included a traffic study and meetings with the Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC). Extensive environmental review will be handled through an Environmental Impact Report to be completed prior to City Council approval of the project. Summary of Public Outreach Efforts Since 2005 extensive public outreach on the development has occurred, including: • 16 Shoreline Development Citizens Advisory Committee meetings; • 6 town hall meetings; • 25 Shoreline- Marina Committee meetings; • 6 City Council work sessions; and • On March 20, 2012 a meeting was held with Marina berthers to update them on development of the shoreline area and obtain feedback. Legal Analysis The report and recommendation has been reviewed and approved as to form by the City Attorney's Office. Fiscal Impacts Although legal review for the ENRA is covered under the City's retainer agreement, the City will incur legal and consulting costs related to the negotiation of a ground lease agreement with Cal -Coast in future years, potentially starting as early as FY 2012 -13. The estimated cost for legal and consulting fees is $125,000 over two to three years, to be paid from the Shoreline Enterprise Fund, Shoreline Division (597 -57- 003 - 5120). Cal -Coast will pay any overtime staff costs as well as contract staff costs incurred by the City for the processing of entitlements. The City will compensate Cal -Coast for the portion of Environmental Impact Report costs related to the redevelopment of the boat harbor and for the design, engineering and permitting of the redevelopment of the boat harbor through ground lease rent credit. The City will not incur any expenses related to redevelopment of the boat harbor basin unless Cal -Coast has completed all development requirements, (certification of the EIR, issuance of all necessary City of San Leandro Page 5 Printed on 312712012
