Comments on Shoreline Management Act ordinance
Planning Commission:
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.
