G. Unfinished Business
Mr. Atwood provided an update on unfinished business, stating that Streets department
determined the rubber speed bumps suggested for the marina took on too much wear
and tear during the 2-month trial at a separate location and they will need to look at other
options. It's likely asphalt speed humps will be installed on Peoples Street during the
paving project. The fuel station RFP should be out by the end of the month.
3. 23-1810 Capital Improvement Projects Update
Mr. Atwood advised the dock project has been delayed to the end of November or
beginning of December due to the construction company needing to file float plans with
the Port and USCG for dredge disposal at Rincon Point. Demolition of the electrical on A
and B piers has begun. The designs for the Coopers boater's facility and Haul Out are at
30% and have passed the executive team review. The City provided Harrison's Landing
with a draft of their new lease agreement for review and another meeting will take place
soon. The plans for Harrison's Landing are the only delay in the Peoples Street
Boardwalk project. Mr. Atwood is attending biweekly meetings for the Marina Master
Plan with EDSA. Representatives from EDSA are planning a trip back to Corpus Christi
to meet with stakeholders again. The community survey will go out on November 17th.
H. New Business for Discussion and Possible Action
4. 23-1811 Navigation Lights
Mr. Broomfield suggested the USCG ATON chief come to the next committee meeting to
speak about navigation lights within the marina and Corpus Christi Bay since it falls on
them to maintain navigational aids. Mr. Atwood advised he would make some calls to
see if that can happen.
5. 23-1812 Resolution to Change the Definition of"Sea Wall"
The committee determined the confusion within the Proposition A language and the
committee's concerns is the difference between the seawall and the breakwater. The
breakwater is not included as part of the seawall. Ms. Mason made a motion to request
the seawall definition to include marina infrastructure, breakwater, and required
maintenance as vital components of the system. Mr. Wood seconded, and the motion
passed unanimously.
I. Future Agenda Items
Navigation lights, Port dredging
J. Adjournment
The meeting adjourned at 6:33pm.
