File Number: 22-729 included an Addendum to the San Leandro Shoreline Development Project EIR, and Planned Development Project and Site Plan Review for the private elements of the Project. Analysis In 2008, the City Council approved the formation of the Shoreline Development Citizens Advisory Committee (Shoreline CAC) to advise the City Council and staff on the vision for the Shoreline development area. In 2011, it was determined that the Shoreline CAC had concluded its mission and the group was disbanded. In 2012, an RFP process was completed and an Exclusive Negotiating Rights Agreement (ENRA) was established with Cal Coast Companies LLC, Inc (Cal Coast). At that time, the City Council Shoreline-Marina Committee approved a Shoreline Advisory Group to provide continuing community input to the City Council and staff on the comprehensive master plan for the Shoreline development area. On June 4, 2012, the City Council approved and appointed members to the 21-person Shoreline Advisory Group, which would assist the City and Cal-Coast in refining the plans and studies for the Shoreline Development Project including the Harbor Basin Redevelopment, with an additional three members with design expertise selected later in 2012 to assist the group. The Shoreline Advisory Group met multiple times from 2012 to 2020 to provide input on the project, park and water basin scope and design, as well as the Environmental Impact Report. The Shoreline Advisory Group’s input was instrumental in informing and shaping the final scope of the Shoreline Development Project. With the approval of the Shoreline Disposition and Development Agreement in 2020, the scope of the Shoreline Development Project and the type and level of development was approved. Since this time, the Shoreline Advisory Group has been provided updates and invited to public meetings on the project. The Group’s input was also solicited at a series of public meetings for the Shoreline Park, including in 2017 and 2022, which design has been refined and submitted to the Design Review Committee of the Bay Coastal Design Commission (BCDC). The sale and leasing of certain properties for private development by Cal Coast Development LLC, Inc. was finalized prior to December 31, 2022. Cal Coast now intends to proceed to continue planning for the Shoreline Development project in line with the approved entitlements and agreements, and the City of San Leandro intends to proceed to finalize plans and prepare for construction of the Shoreline Park, incorporating the community’s input. At this time, staff finds that the Shoreline Advisory Group has completed their charge to assist in refining the plans and studies for the Shoreline Development Project and Shoreline Park and such plans are now proceeding towards development. Members of the Shoreline Advisory Group who would like to continue to provide input on the project will be welcome and invited to attend any upcoming public meetings that may be held on the Shoreline Development Project and Shoreline Park. As such, staff recommends that the Shoreline Advisory Group be ended at this time. Staff would Page 2 City of San Leandro Printed on 5/10/2023
