Marina Dredging: Mr. Atwood advised dredging in Area 1 is complete and has moved on to Area 2 near Coopers Alley. The project is allotted 55,000 cubic yards of dredge material, if that amount is not met, they will dredge more at the gap. The dredging during the dock replacement project will focus inside the marina only. Mr. Atwood and Ms. Gardner are going over options for a long-term dredge plan to include the channel at the gap. Mr. Dunlap inquired what constitutes a yard of dredge material. Mr. Atwood explained the cubic yards are estimated after the material has dried out. Marina Budget: Mr. Atwood passed out a debt schedule print out with the amount of debt remaining from the dock construction projects for piers E, F, G, and H as well as piers R, S, T, and U. This debt will be paid off by 2030. Mr. Atwood’s goal is to not add any projects to the debt schedule. Ms. Gardner cautioned by using cash for CIP only people that provided that money are paying for the Capital Improvements. The advantage to using debt to pay for infrastructure projects is that the future users will also be paying for it as the debt is paid off.

The current contract extends to 2024 at $2225.00 per year with no buy out amount provided. The City Manager has the authority to cancel contracts.
