The motion passed unanimously. 4. Reports and Discussion Colin Donnelly, Assistant City Manager, stated that the City Commission would like for the Marine Advisory Board to be in attendance for the review process of the Marina Management Bid proposals, and would like to know their concept or vision regarding the Marina for the Capital Improvement Plan. Chairman Taylor noted that at the last meeting the board envisioned a need for boat dockage, storage, floating day dockage, and a destination spot. He stated the marina could be a profit center or pay for itself. Chairman Taylor commented the City was going to take over the Marina, but they had issues of deterioration and security, and then decided to hire an outside management company. Assistant City Manager Donnelly advised the management company will only be there to manage the marina. He advised bids were received for management outsourcing for the Marina and encouraged the Marine Advisory Board Members to attend the interview process to provide their input to the City Commission. He indicated that the City Commission would publicly interview them as well. Mike Grady commented that the designers should have input from the Marine Advisory Board as well, before the new design is implemented, then they can design the Marina to meet the specifications from the Marine Advisory Board ideas. Assistant City Manager Donnelly advised he was not asking for the redesign of storage slips for the Marina. He is asking the Marine Advisory Board for their concept for the Marina as to more public access and storage area, or how much and where does the board think the public access and the day docks should be located. Chairman Taylor stated the Marine Advisory Board agreed public access, storage area, and day docks should be at the north end as close to the pier as possible. Mike Grady questioned if the management companies know the specifics on how much space they will have to manage. Assistant City Manager Donnelly advised that the management company will only manage what is there now and said that the contract for this project is for two years with a possible two year extension. The contract would not give the management company the right to manage the redesign of the Marina because they are separate projects. He stated the City of Dania Beach wants to keep the Marina legal and operational. Carol Stokrocki questioned what is being done to encourage people to use the Marina. Assistant City Manager Donnelly advised the City of Dania Beach is taking out ads in various marina and boating magazines. He also advised one of the questions on the RFP is their public outreach strategy. Mike Grady noted he would like to see signage along the intercostals. Assistant City Manger Donnelly stated he would contact FAU regarding temporary signage. He also advised he spoke with FIND regarding redoing the signs in Hollywood by the mangroves near the Dania Cut-Off Canal.
