HARBOR RENTS
Look Back Review for Residential / Commercial
Piers and Moorings
City Council Study Session
November 12, 2013
The Process
Since 2010, City Council has reviewed harbor rents for
moorings, Balboa Yacht Basin slip tenants and
residential /commercial pier permittees.
Early this year, the Council committed to "look back" at the
City's implementation of the harbor rents, and adjust if
necessary.
Residential pier rents implemented March 1, 2013.
Look Back Workshops
Two public workshops held in late summer. Excellent
dialogue and feedback from the harbor users.
All workshop comments summarized in Attachment A in
today's staff report.
Based on comments received, staff is recommending the
following changes for 2014:
Recommended Change #1
Area defined as:
Footprint of pier, gangway and float
Interior of U- shaped float
✓ Buffer area of 10' around float (except backside)
