PERMIT NO. 1989.014.05 , City of San Leandro (Originally Issued on March 7, 1990, As Amended Through May 2, 2016) AMENDMENT NO. FIVE Page 21 Amendment Five.This amendment is being issued to resolve BCDC Enforcement Case No. ER2014.016. The enforcement case was opened as a result of the permittee's failure to comply with Special Condition II.F.2,which required the public access at Robert's Landing to have been permanently guaranteed to the public by September 7, 1990. As part of this amendment, the permittee has agreed to complete the permanent guarantee within 180 days of issuance of the amended permit, no later than November 1, 2016. Additionally, in lieu of paying administrative fines,the permittee has agreed to provide new public access amenities including: 1. Six public access parking spaces at the Lewelling Boulevard traffic circle, one of which is ADA accessible.This new public shore parking is located outside of the Commission's shoreline band jurisdiction and will enable the public to reach Segments 1, 2, and 3 of the Shoreline Trail required herein by walking or cycling along the section of the Shoreline Trail on Bayfront Drive required by BCDC Permit No. M1992.057.01, issued to the Heron Bay HOA; and 2. A comprehensive signage plan that clearly directs the public to the Shoreline Trails from Wicks Boulevard and Lewelling Drive in the east. The signage plan is also designed to identify bike lanes and notify the public of all the onsite access amenities. Further, the permittee has provided an updated Exhibit B to the permit that shows the San Leandro Marshlands' required public access area, including Shoreline Trail Segments 1, 2, and 3, as well as the public shore parking area at Lewelling Boulevard traffic circle. San Francisco Bay Plan Public Access Policy 7 states, in relevant part,that public access improvements should be designed and built to encourage movement to the shoreline and that all improvements should be identified with appropriate signs. Public Access Policy 9 states, in relevant part, that access to the waterfront should be provided by walkways,trails and other appropriate means and connect to the nearest public thoroughfare where convenient parking or public transportation may be available. The new public shore parking spaces will increase the opportunity for the residents of the City—and not just the residents of the Heron Bay HOA-to use and enjoy the public access required herein because the only other location for the public to park and gain access to this section of shoreline is at the City's marina, which is located several miles to the northwest. This parking enables access to the shoreline by providing convenient parking near the intersection of Wicks and Lewelling Boulevards, one of the City's vehicular thoroughfares. There is no location within the shoreline band that can accommodate public shore parking and the SF Bay Plan provides for requiring the continuance of public access amenities beyond the shoreline
