General Manager’s Activity Report for September/October 2024

“Met with Caltrans and their subcontractor AECOM to discuss the State Route 1
Multi-Asset Roadway Rehabilitation Project. Discussed negative impact on Pillar
Point Harbor by the closure of parking on Hwy 1. Recreational boaters use Hwy 1
for overflow parking from Pillar Point Harbor on days the launch ramp parking area
exceeds capacity. When capacity is exceeded, trucks with boat trailers park on the
shoulder of Hwy 1. This has occurred four or five times per year.

Also used meeting as opportunity to discuss sea level rise on the Coastside.
Caltrans is actively involved in a sea level rise study. Kelly Ma of Caltrans will
connect the Caltrans team with the Harbor District to see if we can work together on
this issue.

Also had a separate meeting with the Caltrans Project Manager of the State Route
1 Multi-Asset Roadway Rehabilitation Project to discuss parking. Caltrans has
funds to partner with local agencies to address the parking issues associated with
the paving project. Discussed potential of using the District property recently
purchased on Burnham Strip for public parking. Emphasized need of crosswalk on
south side of the parking area, if a parking lot is constructed.”
