SUBJECT:

Pillar Point Harbor Village Status Report

 

RECOMMENDATION

Accept the status report and Attachment A confirming the completion of the Pillar Point Harbor Village project.

 

VISION ALIGNMENT

Commitment: Responsive, effective and collaborative government.

Goal 20: Government decisions are based on careful consideration of future impact, rather than temporary relief or immediate gain.

 

This last status report acknowledges compliance with the remaining conditions of approval associated with the Pillar Point Harbor Village project as stipulated in the project’s Development Agreement. The project underwent full environmental review and all required Planning approvals were obtained. The project is designed to address the need for visitor-serving facilities on the Coast and to enhance the economic vitality of the Midcoast area.

 

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION

Since this project’s initial status report in 2005, the Board of Supervisors has extended the time limit within which the Pillar Point Harbor Village project must be completed four times, with the last extension granted to allow completion of the project’s last structure – the restaurant.

 

As pending from the last status report, the restaurant structure has been completed, with all conditions related to this and all other buildings met.

 

As last granted by the Board in February, the hotel has officially opened for business, with tenant improvements beginning to occur within the hotel’s interior retail mall. A lease has also been signed for a tenant to operate in the restaurant structure. Additionally, all exterior lighting, parking area, landscaping and hotel signage improvements have been completed. Based on this, staff concludes that the overall project has now been completed, both as conditioned and as stipulated by the Development Agreement according to the terms set by the Board’s last extension.

 

FISCAL IMPACT

The assessed tax revenue when the project is completed will increase significantly.
