Dear Rick: Transmitted with this letter is the documentation of our fourth planning charrette which details the Composite Alternative, the comparative evaluation of all the alternatives and our preliminary recommendations for improvement of the Central Waterfront. Also included are a mmiber of comments from the Task Force, the Technical Committee and the general public that will be considered in the refinement of the Recommended Plan. At our planned May 27th wrk session*we will review the refined plan, remaining issues, implementation and phasing, and proposed design policies as part of the plan. Since me did not receive clear direction at our last session as expected, it will be critical tbat-we get agreement on the selected plan at this session in order to have enough timeto prepare the marketing brochure and the Final Report by the end of June.

The purpose of the work session was to: � Review planning work done to date for the Central Waterfront � Review Alternatives 1, 2, and 3 from the previous charrette � Describe a 4th Composite Alternative developed based on comments from the last charrette � To comparatively evaluate the alternatives and m3le recom- mendations for the area � Describe a specific recommended improvement projects Obtain direction on the selected alternative to allow further refinement and documentation This reports documents the comparative evaluation of the four alternatives and suggested refinements to the recommended plan made during the charrette. This Technical Report #4 together with Reports 1, 2 and 3 will be considered.as a separate Technical Appendix to the Final Report. As has been the case throughout the study process, the charrette involved the participation of the City of Bellingham, the Port of Bellingham, the Fourth Corner Development Group, Georgia-Pacific and the general public. The consultants have been assisted in the development of the recommended plan by staff from the City's Department of Planning and Economic Development, as mell as the Central Waterfront Task Force with representatives of the business community, Western Washington University and the Mayor of Bellingham. Also present at the public session were members of the City Council, Planning Commission, the City Center Development Authority, property owners in the area and interested citizens. Following a review of the study purpose and process,, and a sumnary of the %ork done to date, the charrette focused on the description of a new fourth com- posite alternative and on specific improvment projects. The evaluation of all alternatives led to recommendations by the consultant team that this composite alternative best satisfied the criteria and objectives for the Central Water- front. DESCRIPrION OF ONPOSITE ALTERNATIVE 4 Based on the comments received during the previous planning charrettes and directions from the Technical Camiittee and Task Force, a Composite Alterna- tive was developed that addresses the concerns of the various interest groups as well as achieves the goals for the area as expressed early in the planning process. The following is a description of this Composite Alternative. Citizen's Dock: Save it and move it north of Holly into Whatcan Creek Maritime Heritage Center Park. Renovate archi- tecturally significant parts of the building, but keep the central portion of building as an open-air pavilion in order to reduce renovation.costs. Use the-open air portions for recrea- tion; music/performance (stage); picnic tables; interpretive center; use front and rear portions of buildings for restrooms;, park offices; small retail tourist shops, and/or a small restaurant or deli type sandwich shop that would cater to park users. If necessary, due to the scale of the building in rela- tionship to the size of the park, portions (bays) of central section might be left out. Ibis action is dependent upon both its financial feasibility and political acceptance. � Whatcom Creek Waterway: Emphasis of Waterway will be on its importance as a working industrial waterfront with barge stag- ing; tugs and marine dependent/water-related uses. By removal of Citizen's Dock, more intensive waterborne traffic can use the Waterway which should benefit industrial users and increase the value of properties along the Waterway for those types of activities. Enhancement of opportunities for these water- dependent uses was considered an asset to the Central Water- front particularly with enhanced public visual access and understanding of industry. Seaplanes and existing transit moorage will be allowed to remain. Additional moorage will occur at Squalicum Harbor. � Hol1Z Bridge Gateway: Relocate Citizen's Dock in the park and front the building aiong the northeast side of street just south of Holly Bridge (on/or in the vicinity of the Shrimp Shack site). Use old concrete light standards with globe-type fixtures in a close spacing on bridge railings to visually enhance,the "gateway" quality of bridge. Construct a public viewpoint and platform with tower and interpretive materials on City-owned property south of Holly. Consideration must be given to public acquisition of the remaining private property in this location (Shrimp Shack and St. John's Glass). Old Town Core (Opportunity Area B): Consolidate properties within industrial area through possible street vacations in exchange for public access along Whatcom Creek north of Holly (along IIBII street ROW). This pedestrian route could be on land or a boardwalk extending over the creek. Construct new entrance to Maritime Heritage Center (MHC) and fish rearing facility fran I'D" Street and close entrance.from "C" Street. Make I'D" Street two-way with parallel parking. Improve Crosswalk/intersection at I'D" Street and Holly to emphasize entrance/orientation to MHC. Streetscape I'D" Street. Land use enphasis on mixed-use light industrial, manufacturing and retail/commercial uses (within opportunity Area B). Develop design standards or policies for this area. Change zoning to allow non-water related retail uses. Let Shoreline Master Program regulate setbacks, etc. within 200 feet shoreline boundary. Opportunity Area B might be considered a special review district, or a "planned" designation applied to zoning to allow for site plan review. Hilltop CBD Transition (Opportunity Area C): This area should continue to be an intensive activity center for entertainment and cultural activities. The area between Holly and the pro- posed realignment of Chestnut and Roeder is proposed for a structured parking garage that would serve Georgia-Pacific parking needs as well as the general public. Due to the topo- graphic grade change a structured parking garage could have access from a number of different street locations and at different levels without ramping. In order to blend the parking garage into the Holly Street area, retail street frontage should line the Holly Street side of the structure as much as possible. A public/private project is suggested. Access could be from Central, Bay, perhaps Chestnut/Roeder Ramp; and even Holly as long as vehicular traffic did not adversely impact pedestrian traffic. A portion Of this area is within the old alignment or ROW of Army Street, a street ROW that is between Bay and Central. This City ROW could be used to act as a catalyst for development of the parking and any retail frontages. The use of City-owned property near the corner of Dupont and I'D" Street for commercial development through ground leases was identified as a means of stimulating economic redevelopment in the area. The amount of development should reflect a market driven response and not compete with private development in the CED. Because State money vas used to purchase land for the Maritime Heritage Center, the City they mast provide equal or better land area for land used for other than the Maritime Heritage Center. Ibis might be in the way of street vacation or purchase of more land. Lettered Street Neighborhood/Area 8: Change development standards to allow greater residential densities in Area 8 of the Lettered Streets Neighborhood. Greater density is appro- priate in this area due to its close proximity to downtown, the CBD, and the large open space at the Maritime Heritage Center. Greater lot coverage and less lot area per unit with possible reductions in parking requirements are incentives that could increase the residential development in the area. Fees in lieu of providing these amenities could be one implementation approach. Office densities should remain the same. Whatcom. Creek Focus (Opportunity Area A): Retain Opportunity 5ea A's land use designation of Waterfro'nt Commercial but expand the allowed retail uses to include non-water related ones. � Opportunity Area F Holly/Roeder 'IF" Street Corridor: Widen out curb return radii to maximum 35 feet to 50 feet to provide a smooth transition at 'IF" Street and,Roeder and Holly Street. A problem at 'IF" and Roeder is with the number of RR tracks that exist. Smoother track crossings should be installed. Signage and signals should be improved at this location for easily understandable traffic movement and safety. Through Holly traffic should continue ot occur as well. � Opportunity Area E Industrial Expansion Area: Change zoning of this area between the Roeder/Chestnut Realignment and the vacated portion of Chestnut to Heavy Industrial to accommodate GP expansion. Following the description of the fourth Compositve Alternative, the con- sultants reviewed the evaluation criteria used to comparatively evaluate all four alternatives. The evaluation criteria mere organized around six major categories agreed upon by the Task Force, Technical Committee, and general public. These included: Land Use Compatibility � Linkages and Water Access � Environmental Quality Improvement � Economic Growth and Feasibility � Ease of Implementation � Public/Private Acceptance in addition to these rather general headings each of the categories was further defined with subcategories to provide a finer tuned evaluation. Based on the evaluation of the alternatives, the fourth alternative was recommended for refinement as the Recommended Development Plan for the Central Waterfront. Following the discussion of the evaluation of the alternatives, comments were taken from the Task Force, Technical Committee, and general public on how the recommended plan'could be further refined prior to its implementation. The following are comments received on the preliminary consultant recommendations. 4- Comments voiced.by the Technical Committee and Task Force Sessions: The Port expressed a desire to change the allowed uses within the Marine Industrial designation along the I & j Waterway to allow some retail/commercial uses such as retail fish markets or other commercial uses due to the lack of demand for fish processing plants and the general decline in the industry around Bellingham. Georgia-Pacific voiced concern over the designation of its property between Central and Bay Streets and Holly and Roeder/ Chestnut Realignment only for parking. Georgia-Pacific indi- cated that portions of their property might be needed for a water filtration/pump station and/or an electrical substation. � The City had sow concern over the vacation of Central Avenue between Chestnut and Roeder for pedestrian access. A street vacation would mean that the City would dispose the property. The City indicated that perhaps all but a 20 foot wide strip of the street might be vacated in order to allow pedestrian access along it. Georgia-Pacific initially indicated no desire for acquiring the property as it is located on pilings over the water and is in disrepair. Later Georgia-Pacific indicated that it might indeed be interested in acquiring the property together with the R.O.W. Public access to the existing transient and seaplane moorage on the waterway near the Roeder Street Bridge should be continued. � The City suggested prioritizing and phasing improvements to intersections with the first intersection to be improved being those near downtown and along Holly and at 'IF" Street. Other intersections muld follow as budgets allow. Intersection improvements could also be prioritized in term of the type and amount of improvement given. Important intersections might have special pavingi streetscaping improvements, signage and lighting, and bollards to signify their importance, while other intersections may only receive minimal improvements such as bollards that relate them in them to the area. � The City and the Port suggested keeping a suggested pedestrian overpass between Squalicum Harbor and the Broadway Viewpoint even though the funding of such an improvement would depend on capital improvement budgets. � It was suggested that the refined plan call for maintaining the Old Burlington North Depot as it occupies a significant location at the terminus of I'D" Street which will take a more significance as a two-way connection to Dupont and the Maritime Heritage Center. The Mayor suggested that the new Lettered Streets Area 14 might be extended to include more of Residential Area 9 to provide more incentive for high density residential development near the C.B.D. and the Maritime Heritage Center. The appropriateness of seaplanes on the WhatcoFn Creek Waterway was discussed. For the tim being this is t6e only place to accommodate this use and it should continue until a new loca- tion can be found. The need for the entire length of Central Avenue for public access was discussed with Task Force members. Planning staff will investigate the use of the street right-of-way for parking purposes. Comments voiced during the public session centered upon Citizen's Dock and public waterfront access: � Opposition to moving of Citizen's Dock � Public access to the Whatcom Creek Waterway should be enhanced. A desire to be able to actually/physically get down to the waterway was expressed. � Concern was voiced for the waterway being solely heavy/marine industrial in use � Public access and parking on Central Avenue right of Vay between Georgia-Pacific and Roeder was thought to be very important � Use of City-owned property within the Maritime Heritage Center for joint public/private commercial development was a concern � There vas concern that new commercial development within. Maritime Heritage Center would compete with commrcial develop- ment in the CBD and other areas around downtown � There is a need for parking near Citizen's Dock to make it more accessible to the public � Impacts may occur fr(xn increased residential densities in Lettered Street Area 14 upon other residential areas � Bellingham Sash and Door had concerns over access to their business and the vacation of Astor and."C" Streets in exchange for pedestrian access along the creek Despite the contuing issues which must be addressed, there appeared to be considerable agreement on the majority of the problems/solutions of the Central Waterfront. The consultant team requested a decision from the Task Force and Technical Comimittee to select the preferred alternative in order to maintain the study schedule. However, in light of the public concerns, a decision was postponed. The City is scheduling a series of meetings to address the issues. An expanded analysis of Citizen's Dock alternatives vas requested. The,next step in the process will be the further refinement and documentation of therecommended plan based on these comments to the extent possible pending City direction. The detailed implementation and phasing strategies and the development of design policies must still be prepared. In addition, a market- ing brochure to be used by the City to implement the economic development of the area will be prepared. The finalized plan report is scheduled for delivery to the City by the end of June. The next working session is scheduled for May 27, 1986.
