Meat is working waterfront. And we continue to continue to have a concern about the decline of the dry boat storage. Spaces from 300 to 60 at Alameda. Marina in the master plan. People speaking on behalf of the developer keep trying to justify the need for less spaces using numbers that do not reflect the demand. At the last council. Meeting, we all heard about many. People who had actively sailed their dry boats, stored boats and moved. Their boats when they. Were started telling everybody to move out and because they were. Going to start their. Big housing development. For now, the phasing in the building plan allows many to keep their boats in the dry storage at Alameda Marina at the Eastern End for several years. And so the severe need will not really become apparent until it's time for that last phase to be built. The developer has offered to install up to 120 versa docks in the wet slips and charge the same. Fee as for the. Dry storage prices for those spaces. If this happens, we might have enough dry boat storage at the expense of the wet slips in the marina at $10,000 per versa. Dock. It is hard to imagine that they will not increase. The dry boat. Storage prices from the the prices now in 2018 for a 32 foot space for a dry boat, storage. Boat is $145. A. Month, whereas the wet storage space is $272. So you can understand why dry boat storage is so attractive to people. It's about half the amount. But the city also shouldn't be happy with this plan because the city earns 10% on the fees that are collected. So Andrew Thomas had a very good idea of potentially using six acres of the Thailand's trust space and sale terminals for dry storage. And this is reflected in the master plan of Alameda Marina. It is not listed among the potential uses in the internal terminals master plan. We want our concern to be on record about the decline in both storage and and the fact that we. Are very worried about this. And we request that it be listed on the National Terminals Master Plan as a potential use of the Tri Tidelands Trust property at that location. Thank you. Thank you. Do we have a motion? So moved. All right. So I wanted to add on this one. When I came to the planning board, honestly, before we even got there, we've had years of community input and. And I think all of us do value and want a strong marina. That being said, in some ways we have to always figure out the balance. And I really believe that our community, the developer, our planning board and our council did the best possible work of figuring out the balance of the housing that the this was private property. This part of what the the developer is entitled to, they actually did not ask for the highest number of housing units that they are entitled to per state law. Then I believe that there was great accommodation, including right up until the vote by the developer of trying to figure out how to make it work. There will be future opportunities for community members to be involved in the process. We will be looking for a boatyard operator, so there will be ongoing conversations. So please stay involved so that your voices and concerns are heard so that we do end up with the best possible project. And for those of you that and we also will have different types of housing for purchase and rent at different price points, which I honestly believe is one of the few developments in our community that where we will end up with that. So this is actually one of the few developments that I supported that was unanimous by our council. So we have a motion and a second all those in favor. I know that passes unanimously and next. We are now on our regular agenda. We have now finished the consent items. Six A adoption resolution appointing Geoffrey Gould as a member of the Public Utilities Board and appointing Michael Haynes, David Johnson, Alisha Knox to call and Shannon as members of the Transportation Commission.
