The staff report and attachments can be found at: https://alameda.legistar.com/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=3838556&GUID=8D276246 E7-48FD-803B-44246EB093F2&FullText=1 Paul Patel, applicant, said the project will be a win-win for everyone. Board Member Mitchell noted that the applicant operates the Coral Reef Inn and asked what the plan was for operation of this hotel. Mr. Patel said he will be the operator, but would have a whole new team that is different from the Coral Reef Inn. Board Member Curtis asked who would own the new hotel. Mr. Patel said he would be 100% owner. He said he has many partners at the Coral Reef. President Sullivan asked if there would be any food operations on site. Mr. Patel said that because of the lot size and neighboring businesses that are available they would only have a "grab and go" deli on site. President Sullivan asked how many employees would be at the hotel. Mr. Patel said approximately 12. President Sullivan said that if half of the employees drive it would severely reduce the available parking on site. President Sullivan opened the public hearing. Gretchen Pearson said she supports the project. She said it would keep visitors on the island. Rich Krinks said they like what he and his client have come up with. He said he thinks the parking issues can be addressed. He said the city can use the tax revenue. Arthur Mercado said he is in full support of the project.
