Certification of Golf Course EIR and Authorization to Proceed with Negotiations with Port of Oakland and Army Corps of Engineers. Elizabeth Johnson, Base Reuse Planner, presented an overview and requested certification of the final EIR for the Alameda Point Golf Course and Hotel Project. The draft EIR was circulated in 2004, with revisions prepared in 2005 to accommodate additional information regarding wetlands on the site. The response to comments is also complete. Janie Alsep and Mark Windsor of EDAW, and Jack Fink from Moffat Nichol Engineers, the consultants who assisted in the preparation of the final EIR, were present to answer questions from the Board. Chair Johnson asked if there was a time limit to start the project once it is certified. Elizabeth Johnson explained that the EIR is programmatic which allows us to go forward with negotiating with the Port or the Army Corp to get materials for the site. Chair Johnson wanted to clarify to the public that, at this point we haven't seen that the project is economically feasible; that we're not moving forward with this project, and this is just a very preliminary action. Elizabeth Johnson concurred and further explained that the point of negotiating to get the dredge material would be to determine the economic feasibility. Member Gilmore clarified that if/when the project is determined to be economically feasible, we would still need a separate EIR for the Hotel/Conference Center. Member deHaan and Elizabeth Johnson discussed the current dredging at the Port of Oakland and that Alameda Point is the secondary site to receive this dredge material, the primary site being Hamilton Field Wetland | AlamedaReuseandRedevelopmentAuthority/2006-06-07.pdf |
