MARINA Mr. A1 Alys, Chairman of the Harbor Advisory Committee,
presented the Committee's report to the C'ity Council.
It was the Committee's recommendation that the City apply to the State Boating
and Waterways Department.for a planning loan for the Marina. Assistant City
Manager Scharer noted the Army Corps of Engineers will be meeting with H.K.S.,
fheir consultants for the Marina feasibility study, on January 23 and Mr.
Scharer has scheduled a meeting with the Army Corps of Engineers at City Hall
at 9:30 a.m. on January 24. Council was advised that this is the time to,make
additions or revisions to the H.K.S. draft of the feasibility study. If the
Marina project is to continue, it was,suggested that Mr. Morgan Nobel, from
Dames & Moore, be retained as outside staff support,for,this additional study
to proceed. He reported that it appears the maximum expenditure on the part of
the City would be $82,000.00, plus s;taff and consultant time. The steps the
City would take at this time in order to continue working towards the Marina
would be for the City Council to make a commitment that it would be willing to ~~
give up some of Schollenberger Park_area for the project. City Gouncil should;
authorize staff to proceed to apply for a planning loan from the State Boating ~
and Waterways Department. The City should address its concern to the Army
Corps of Engineers and ask them to p:roceed with.this alternative. Staff was
asked to report back to the.Gouneil on the costs of proceeding with the committee's
recommendations.
