PlanningBoard | 2005-03-28 | 4 | PRELIMINARY DRAFT Subject to modification prior to approval by Planning Board 7-B. Interim Use Permit UP05-0001: Antiques Fair (Auto Show and Auto Parts Fair), Gerald Goldman, 2001 Ferry Point (near Seaplane Lagoon site), Alameda Point (DB). The applicant requests an Interim Use Permit to allow vintage auto and motorcycle sales at Alameda Point, for autos manufactured in 1975 or earlier, parts and memorabilia with substantially the same size, scale, access, parking and conditions/requirements as the Antiques Fair. Operation would occur one Sunday per month plus setup and teardown times. This use would include approximately 2,000 booths, 7,000 on-site parking spaces, over 40 acres near former Navy hangers, Bladium and other Alameda Point neighbors. The site is located in the M-2-G (General Industry/Manufacturing Zoning District/Government Combining District). Mr. Brighton summarized the staff report. The public hearing was opened. Mr. Gerald Goldman, applicant, noted that the Antiques Fair had become nationally renowned, and had brought significant business and sales tax revenue to the City. He noted that this proposed event was a clone of the very large Pasadena Swap Meet. Mr. Piziali noted that he supported the Antiques Fair, and wished to support this item as well; he would like to include the following language: "Beer may only be sold subject to approval of the Alameda Police Department, and subject to issuance of the required ABC licenses." Mr. Goldman agreed with that request, and noted that while they were not committed to selling beer, they wanted to allow for it if so desired. Mr. Piziali expressed concern about amplified sound. Mr. Goldman noted that they did not have a public address system at the Antiques Fair, and the staff members communicated by two-way radio. Two police officers would be on-site. In response to Mr. Piziali's question about overnight parking on-site, Ms. Altschuler replied that the vehicles would be parked on the taxiway. In response to an inquiry by Mr. Piziali regarding parking fees, Mr. Goldman agreed to get City approval. In response to an inquiry by Vice President Cook regarding hours of approval, Mr. Goldman confirmed that the earliest time for vendor set-up would be 4 a.m., rather than 2 a. .m. He noted that they would follow the guidelines for the Antiques Fair. He did not believe that semi trucks would ever use the site.
