18712 | 6-B - Exhibit 3 December 11, 2019 Honorable Chair and Members of the Recreation and Parks Commission Dear Chair and Members: of the Recreation and Parks Commission. On December 12 your Commission will make an important decision regarding the future of DePave Park I strongly encourage you to prioritize moving forward and asking the City to start the process. De-Pave Park calls for removing concrete along the western shore of Seaplane Lagoon for a natural shoreline and wetlands development. This concept was included in the 2014 Alameda Point Town and Waterfront Precise Plan and is highlighted in Alameda's 2019 Climate Action Plan. However, the plan won't move forward unless the City sends out a Request for Proposal to find out the costs and details of creating this shoreline park. In addition to providing a wonderful waterfront park for all to enjoy, this newly created marsh will create habitat for the wildlife who make their home there and depend on it for their very survival It also fits into the city's climate action plan because wetlands and marshes can help mitigate rising ocean levels by helping to absorb and contain rising water. Please do the right thing and ask the city to give this issue the highest priority. Thank you. Patricia M. Gannon 1019 Tobago Lane Alameda, CA 94502 Pg3187@gmail.com |
