The Final EIS for the Master Planned Resort (MPR) on Black Point (11/27/07)
contains plans for a marina and maritime village (page 1-11 through 1-17 of
Chapter 1- The Proposal). In these plans commercial buildings as well as
townhouses, water-side units, and villas are to be built along the shore. The
development is dense and close to the water.
The current Shoreline Management Act rests on our best science now for
protecting our water and shoreline. This includes protecting the natural
features of the area and. the wildlife. The plans for the Master Planned Resort
conflict with what we currently know about protecting these areas and using
them wisely.
I urge the Planning Commission to include in the county's ordinance
appropriate buffers for any MPR development, commercial or residential,
along the shoreline of Black Point. Any development of a "maritime village"
needs to be set back considerably from what is shown in the November 2007
FEIS. To fail to include appropriate buffers is to ignore good science and
prudent use of our land and waters.
Thank you.
