PlanningBoard | 2018-09-10 | 5 | Bill Kennedy, Catellus, said that BCDC's process for approving on the water improvements necessitated having the park go first and the dock second. Board Member Teague raised the issue of the requirement that the project provide multiple spaces capable of handling major public events, and asked if the expectation would be that one would still be required in the future on the Bay Ship portion of the project. Staff Member Thomas said that the pocket parks would not meet that requirement and that if the Bay Ship portion is ever developed, the other four acres of park would have to be built. Board Member Curtis asked if the one small bathroom on one end of the park would be adequate for such a large space. Mr. Victor said that there is a public restroom facility integrated into the dry stack marina next door. He said they physically cannot build a structure on the wharf deck. He said the activity would be concentrated around the plaza, which dictated the location. Board Member Cavanaugh asked if there is any further information about the potential bridge and where it would land. Staff Member Thomas said the bridge, if built in this location, would be 30 to 35 feet above the park and not require supports coming down onto the park. He said they are designing the neighborhood with an easement that could allow a future bridge. Board Member Cavanaugh asked if they can get the dock constructed as soon as BCDC approves the plan. Staff Member Thomas said they will not give building permits for the residential until the dock has final approval from BCDC. Board Member Cavanaugh said he would like to see something other than palm trees considered in front of the residential. President Mitchell asked what the look would be around the AMP substation. Mr. Victor said that they have been working with AMP. He said they need visibility into the facility, and have gate access on the south side. President Mitchell asked how the connection through the dry stack marina would function. Staff Member Thomas said they path is existing and required by their permit with BCDC.
