Discussion of Alameda Point Campground Concept

 

Body

 

To: Honorable Chair and Members of the Recreation and Park Commission

Re: Discussion of Alameda Point Campground Concept

 

BACKGROUND

 

The old Navy campground is bounded by the Encinal Boat Launch Facility, the San Francisco Bay Trail and the Hornet soccer field.  It has been out of use since the Navy decommissioned the Alameda Naval Air Station.

 

DISCUSSION

 

Staff is interested in a discussion of whether there is community interest in renovating this area back to a modern campground and if so, what that could look like.  This is envisioned as a public/private partnership so that a private partner would fund the construction, operations and maintenance of the campground with the City receiving a negotiated percent of gross revenues.

 

Please see Exhibit 1 for the presentation of options and next steps.

 

RECOMMENDATION

 

Discuss the Alameda Point Campground concept and provide feedback.

 

 

Respectfully submitted,

Amy Wooldridge, Recreation and Parks Director
