REPORT - STATE LANDS COMMISSION PROPERTY - FIRST STREET and PACIFIC
COAST HIGHWAY
The Executive Director presented a report to the Agency on the status
of the 2.47 acre parcel located at First Street and Pacific Coast
Highway, owned by the State Lands Commission. Mr. Courtemarche reviewed
the historical background of the site and provided additional specific
information relating to zoning, special requirements and conditions for
its development. The Executive Director reviewed the status of the
handball/racquetball facility development which is proposed for that
site and noted problems which have caused delay, the lastest being
the State Department of Fish and Game declaring the eastern boundary
of the site as State wetlands, stating that this issue must be resolved
prior to any further action on the development. Mr. Courtemarche reported
he had communicated with the State Lands Commission expressing the Council
and Planning Commission's interest in reviewing other uses for the property
and had been informed this matter would be reviewed and a report forthcoming.
Agency Member Laszlo stated he had been informed a preliminary lease had
been provided the potential developers for consideration. He suggested
the city consider leasing the parcel at a cost of $38,000 annually and
thereafter sublease the site'for development as a restaurant or for
office use. Mr. Laszlo stated he had discussed use of this property
with developers in the area. Agency Member Kredell expressed opposition
to a hotel/motel use, stating any use must be compatible with the
surrounding area. The City Attorney explained that for the City to
sub-lease the property approval would have to come directly from the
State Lands Commission as a provision of the lease to the City and
stated it will be necessary to resolve the wetlands issue prior to
any further considerations for the property. Chairman Seitz spoke in
support of the maximum compatible use for the land to provide the
greatest revenue return to the City and stated he would be open to
consider all uses for this site. Agency Member Laszlo suggested that
