Adopted. Councilmember Tam recused herself and left the dais. The Associate Civil Engineer gave a brief presentation. Vice Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft inquired what constitutes the Alameda West Lagoon Home Owners Association (HOA). The Associate Civil Engineer responded the HOA includes residents on the south side of all five lagoons, not including the Gold Coast. In response to Vice Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft's inquiry, the Associate Civil Engineer stated the HOA has agreed to pay 30% of the cost of dredging, but no more than $700,000. Vice Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft inquired if the assessment is yearly, to which the Associate Civil Engineer responded that she does not know how the HOA collects fees; stated the HOA has funds to cover the dredging and the rest is covered by Citywide urban runoff fees. Vice Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft stated 12,000 cubic feet of the dredge material will be used at Installation Restoration Site 1 at Alameda Point. Councilmember Daysog stated the reason why Gold Coast residents are not part of the HOA is because of an agreement with Utah Construction; when the lagoons were installed, the resident's beach front property was taken away. Vice Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft moved approval of the staff recommendation and adoption of the resolution. Councilmember Daysog Seconded the motion, which carried by unanimous voice vote - 4.
