2. Shore Power Issues at Commercial Marinas
The Harbor Commission will discuss the issue of shore power at commercial marinas
with respect to the adequacy of the power provided vs. the individual needs of the
tenants. The Harbor Commission has learned that some marinas may not be providing
sufficient power for their larger vessels, therefore prompting prolonged use of on -board
generators which tend to be noisy and may disturb adjacent tenants both land and
waterside. The Harbor Commission will consider recommending that the City Manager
address this issue in the upcoming leases with commercial marinas.
Recommendation:
1) Receive and file, or
2) Recommend to the City Manager that additional terms be inserted into the
upcoming commercial leases requiring adequate power at all commercial
marinas.
3. Public Piers Update
Commissioner Blank will present an update on public piers including related topics such
as visitor serving amenities and planning for additional public piers.
Recommendation:
1) Receive and file.
