Board member Cunningham motioned to move Item 8-B from the Regular Agenda to the Consent Calendar. Board member McNamara seconded the motion, which carried by unanimous voice vote - 7. 6. ORAL COMMUNICATION: Mr. David Howard noted that he had spoken with a woman circulating a petition for a deepwater port at Alameda Point for a cruise ship terminal. He believed that would be worth exploring, and was shocked and dismayed at what he believed to be City staff's lack of imagination for anything that did not involve building higher density homes and building upward on Alameda Point. He believed that the effort to build a cruise ship terminal could be married to an effort to bring more wineries to Alameda, and replicate the success that Rosenblum Wineries enjoys at Alameda Point. He believed that water taxis to Jack London Square and San Francisco could be added to the services, and that more tax dollars could be spent in Alameda.
