6.1C associated with the architectural approach within the particular Planned Community district. Page 3 The Planned Community designation and associated Precise Plan for the Marina Shores Village project were repealed by the referendum. Bottomley Associates, an urban design firm, developed the Marina Shores Village Precise Plan. In that this firm has vast experience with the project site, the City is in the process of contracting with Bottomley and Associates for the preparation of the Precise Plan for Peninsula Park. If the Precise Plan for Peninsula Park is initiated by City Council, staff will supervise the preparation of a new plan for this site. Some components of the Marina Shores Village Precise Plan may continue to be applicable, especially with respect to the provision and treatment of pedestrian oriented waterfront access throughout the site, for example. Other components will be all new, such as the provision of a community park with frontage on Bair Island Road. Environmental Review: An addendum to the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for Marina Shores Village is being prepared. Wagstaff and Associates prepared the Marina Shores Village EIR and they are in contract with the City to prepare an addendum to that document for Peninsula Park. The addendum will be a comprehensive stand-alone document. Addendums are deemed to be appropriate when it is found that a subsequent project proposal will generate fewer impacts or the same impacts to a lesser extent than the project considered in the original EIR. In this case, the project density and height is significantly reduced from the original Marina Shores Village proposal and it is anticipated that the environmental review will confirm that impacts overall will be reduced. In the event that new impacts are discovered, an alternate form of environmental documentation, such as a subsequent EIR, will be prepared. Next steDs - Review Process: As the Precise Plan and EIR Addendum are prepared, there will be public meetings allowing for on-going publiC participation in the review process. In that work on the Precise Plan has not commenced in earnest, timing and other details are not yet available. Alternatives 1. Authorize Initiation of a Precise Plan for an alternate site build-out scenario as specified by Council. 2. Do not authorize Initiation of a Precise Plan for this site. Fiscal Impact The cost to review the project will have no fiscal impact on the City. The Peninsula Park proposal is a "Planning Cost Recovery" project. As such, the cost for all consultant work, as well as staff time, will be paid for by the applicant. In the event that the project is some day entitled and constructed the provision of significant infrastructure upgrades and significant increases in property tax, are expected to off-set future City operational cos or this area.
