Vice Mayor Tam stated that she wants to ensure that there is consistency in the great strides to reduce the number of vehicles through joint or shared parking programs in order to avoid displacing waterfront property and maximizing public access; she hopes that the issue is clear pervasively, not just at the Del Monte site. Councilmember deHaan inquired whether there are any proposals for industrial use. The Planning Services Manager responded industrial use proposals are not coming in because of the loss of rail and shipping uses. Mayor Johnson stated Harbor Bay Business Park has a better opportunity for industrial because the Business Park provides easy access off of Alameda.
