NORTH MARE ISLAND DESCRIPTION and INFORMATION August, 2013 NORTH MARE ISLAND DESCRIPTION AND INFORMATION August, 2013 Executive Summary North Mare Island is a 157 acre commercial and industrial development opportunity located along the San Francisco Bay, 30 minutes from downtown Oakland, 45 minutes from downtown San Francisco and one hour from Sacramento, with direct ferry access to San Francisco, and freeway access via Highway 37 to I-80. This remarkable site is at the gateway to the Napa and Sonoma Valleys, with views and access to Bay and River on either side. The site is approved (EIR certified) for 1.2 million square feet of commercial/industrial development. Roughly 125 acres are currently owned by the City of Vallejo, with another 32 acres due to be transferred to the City by the Navy, much of it as soon as late 2014, and the remainder by March 2017. While the site is unique, its development faces some important constraints: Existing highly deteriorated and unsightly buildings left from the Naval base must be demolished; while the City is making progress toward demolishing the worst buildings, City resources are limited. North Mare Island was created by placing fill over Bay mud; this relatively unstable land will require geo-technical design mitigations. Much infrastructure, including sewer, water and power, will need to be redeveloped. For the right development entity, North Mare Island presents a remarkable opportunity to acquire a significant piece of a fast dwindling resource: developable commercial/industrial land within the inner-San Francisco Bay Area market. The City of Vallejo welcomes any bona fide proposal for commercial/industrial use. Residential uses will not be considered. 1. Site Description and Context North Mare Island (NMI) consists of approximately 157 acres, of which the City owns 125.3 acres and the federal government owns approximately 31.8 acres. Transfer of the federally owned portion from the Navy to the City is expected in 2017, but much of that land could be transferred as eary as 2014 if necessary. The Site is subject to the land use regulations contained in the Mare Island Specific Plan (EIR/ EIS have been certified) and is approved for development of 1,222,000 square feet of commercial mixed-uses (light industrial, warehouse, office) and 6,000 square feet of educational/ civic space. 29 acres have been dedicated as a conservation easement. Notwithstanding the current land use regulations, development concepts that achieve the City’s goals will be considered. Key goals for North Mare Island include: Job creation, especially jobs that pay a living wage Revenue generation “Green” industries and businesses The Council has made clear that residential uses will not be considered at this time for North Mare Island.. There are nearly 27 additional acres available located adjacent to the Site but not included in the Specific Plan area. However, this land has no defined land use designation, was not part of the EIR, and requires environmental assessment for potential constraints, especially possible wetlands. North Mare Island Description and Information Figure 1: Reuse Area 1A Location Source: maps.google.com; AECOM Regional Setting Vallejo is a dynamic community located in southern Solano County within the Bay Area. A strategic location, mid-way between San Francisco and Sacramento, at the confluence of the Sacramento River and the San Francisco Bay, and at the entrance to the Napa Wine Country, has shaped Vallejo's history and contributed to its present status as a "gateway" city. Vallejo's location is further enhanced by its transportation infrastructure, offering freeway and ferry access to regional centers of employment and recreational attractions. Figure 2: Regional Setting Map 2 Source: maps.google.com; AECOM North Mare Island Description and Information City Setting Mare Island is located on the western edge of the City of Vallejo. The Island is bounded by Mare Island Strait (part of the Napa River) on the east, San Pablo Bay on the west, Carquinez Strait on the south, and Napa Marsh, State Route 37 and San Pablo Bay National Wildlife Refuge on the north. The entire site lies within the incorporated boundaries of the City of Vallejo. The two existing points of access are from State Route 37, the primary route across the North Bay connecting U.S. Route 101 and Interstate 80, and across the Mare Island Causeway from Tennessee Street, one of Vallejo’s main arterials and a primary connection with Interstate 80. Figure 3: City Setting Map Source: San Francisco Chronicle and maps.google.com; AECOM 3 North Mare Island Description and Information Local Setting Mare Island is approximately 3.5 miles long by one mile wide. It comprises approximately 5,250 acres, of which 1,448 acres are Reuse Areas identified for development and recreational uses, including conservation easements, and 3,787 acres of dredge disposal ponds, wetlands, and submerged lands. Generally speaking, the Island is relatively flat, ranging in elevation from sea level to 284 feet above sea level at the southern end. The “Hill”, a large upland open space at the southern end of Mare Island, is part of the original Shipyard. Figure 4: Local Setting Map Source: maps.google.com; AECOM Mare Island Overview Mare Island is one of the largest industrial/commercial campuses in Solano County. In 2002, Lennar Mare Island, LLC (LMI) acquired approximately 650 acres of the Island for the construction and redevelopment of industrial, office, commercial, and residential properties. Today, the Island is home to more than 90 businesses, nearly 2,000 jobs, and three million square feet of occupied commercial space. LMI has entitlements for over seven million square feet of industrial/office product (with workable inventory of approximately 5.5 million square feet available for lease or sale), and plans for more residential development in the future. In addition, Touro University has over 1,400 full time students at its campus on Mare Island. Commercial real estate brokers marketing Mare Island cite the many advantages of locating a business on the island: 4 North Mare Island Description and Information .

With approvals for 1,400 homes, the already-vibrant community will continue to grow and enhance Mare Island and the City of Vallejo. Figure 5: Lennar Mare Island Residential Community 5 North Mare Island Description and Information Mare Island Specific Plan The Mare Island Specific Plan (adopted in 1999, restated in 2005, and amended most recently in 2008) establishes a vision of Mare Island as a vibrant civilian employment center and balanced new neighborhood for the City of Vallejo. The Specific Plan designates land uses and establishes development standards for identified reuse areas and provides an implementation program to guide all subsequent planning activities. Figure 6: Mare Island Specific Plan Reuse Areas Map 6 North Mare Island Description and Information The area subject to development in North Mare Island is referred to in the Specific Plan as “Reuse Area 1A”.1 The site has direct access to the State Route 37 interchange. State Route 37 and the North Gate form the northern boundary; G Street and the Causeway form the southern boundary. Most of the existing structures sited in Reuse Area 1A are in disrepair and will require demolition. The City is in the process of identifying the resources to undertake demolition of the deteriorated buildings. To the west is Reuse Area 1B, now home to Alco Iron & Metal Company and Earthquake Protection Systems, and wetland areas. To the east are wetlands and Mare Island Strait. A large pier extends from the Reuse Area 1A Property into Mare Island Strait. The pier is held in the Public Trust and shall be preserved for potential future public access. Figure 7 presents the Reuse Area 1A property boundary, existing roads, and structures. Figure 8 presents the individual parcel boundaries of the Reuse Area 1A Property. It includes detail concerning the existing railroad infrastructure adjacent to the Reuse Area 1A Property boundaries. Figure 8 also displays the 26.7 acre “optional” parcel. This parcel was not included in the Specific Plan area and currently has no defined land use designation. It was also not part of the EIR and will require environmental assessment for potential constraints, especially possible wetlands.

  • San Pablo Bay and Marin Islands National Wildlife Refuges - Refuges in the North Bay by Bryan Winton
    San Pablo Bay NWR Tideline Newsletter Archives San Pablo Bay and Marin Islands National Wildlife Refuges - Refuges in the North Bay by Bryan Winton Editor’s Note: In March 2003, the National Wildlife Refuge System will be celebrating its 100th anniversary. This system is the world’s most unique network of lands and waters set aside specifically for the conservation of fish, wildlife and plants. President Theodore Roosevelt established the first refuge, 3- acre Pelican Island Bird Reservation in Florida’s Indian River Lagoon, in 1903. Roosevelt went on to create 55 more refuges before he left office in 1909; today the refuge system encompasses more than 535 units spread over 94 million acres. Leading up to 2003, the Tideline will feature each national wildlife refuge in the San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge Complex. This complex is made up of seven Refuges (soon to be eight) located throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and headquartered at Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge in Fremont. We hope these articles will enhance your appreciation of the uniqueness of each refuge and the diversity of habitats and wildlife in the San Francisco Bay Area. San Pablo Bay National Wildlife Refuge Tucked away in the northern reaches of the San Francisco Bay estuary lies a body of water and land unique to the San Francisco Bay Area. Every winter, thousands of canvasbacks - one of North America’s largest and fastest flying ducks, will descend into San Pablo Bay and the San Pablo Bay National Wildlife Refuge. This refuge not only boasts the largest wintering population of canvasbacks on the west coast, it protects the largest remaining contiguous patch of pickleweed-dominated tidal marsh found in the northern San Francisco Bay - habitat critical to Aerial view of San Pablo Bay NWR the survival of the endangered salt marsh harvest mouse.

    Communication from Public Name: Daniel Gaines Date Submitted: 11/12/2020 12:54 PM Council File No: 18-1246 Comments for Public Posting: This ordinance, if passed, would essentially ignore our housing crisis and prioritize tourists over long term tenants and the wealthy over people who desperately need housing. As someone who works in homeless services, I see firsthand how the shortage of housing is a public health issue for the folks I serve, and we know that deaths of unhoused individuals have skyrocketed in recent months. LA is in a state of emergency when it comes to housing and I implore the council to alleviate the crisis of houselessness BEFORE focusing on lodgings for tourists who all have homes to return to. It is unconscionable for our City to consider removing housing from the long-term rental market at a time when tenants are being displaced and and homelessness is increasing. If passed, this ordinance will potentially remove 14,740 homes from the long term rental market in Los Angeles. (LA Times: https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2019-12-19/los-angeles-vacation-rentals-city-council-considers-loosening-rules) In these dire times, we are asking PLUM to please consider who really needs their protection: working Angelenos trying to stay in their homes, or the wealthiest among us trying to profit from second homes they don’t actually live in?

  • Status of Ospreys Nesting on San Francisco Bay ANTHONY J
    STATUS OF OSPREYS NESTING ON SAN FRANCISCO BAY ANTHONY J. BRAKE, 1201 Brickyard Way, Richmond, California 94801; [email protected] HARVEY A. WILSON, 1113 Otis Drive, Alameda, California 94501; [email protected] ROBIN LEONG, 336 Benson Avenue, Vallejo, California 94590 ALLEN M. FISH, Golden Gate Raptor Observatory, Building 1064, Fort Cronkhite, Sausalito, California 94965 ABSTRACT: Historical records from the early 1900s, as well as surveys updated in the late 1980s and more recent information from local breeding bird atlases, in- dicate that Ospreys rarely nested on San Francisco Bay prior to 2005. In 2013, we surveyed nesting Ospreys baywide and located 26 nesting pairs, 17 of which were successful and fledged 44 young. We also report on findings from previous annual nest surveys of a portion of San Francisco Bay beginning in 1999. These results demonstrate a greater breeding abundance than has previously been recognized. The density of Osprey nests is highest near the north end of San Francisco Bay, but nesting also appears to be expanding southward. Nearly all of the nests observed were built on artificial structures, some of which were inappropriate and required nests to be removed. Over half of unsuccessful pairs experienced significant human disturbance. We recommend that conservation efforts focus on reducing this ratio, and to help do so, we urge erecting nest platforms as part of efforts to deter nesting when it conflicts with human activity. The Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) is a diurnal, piscivorous raptor that breeds or winters in a variety of habitats on all continents except Antarctica. Upon reaching maturity, the birds typically return close to their natal site to breed.

Beginning around Vallejo and running roughly six miles to Suisun Bay, Grizzly Bay, and the Sacramento possesses a T River Delta, the Strait has, in the daily life of California, reduced down to the Carquinez and Benicia-Martinez bridges. Motorists are as likely to be searching for grim grandeur. their toll as looking at the land and water below. Few will exit the interstates. Why stop at Martinez, Benicia, Vallejo, Crockett, or Port Costa? They are going west to Napa or San Francisco or east to Sacramento. Like travelers’ destinations, California’s future also appears to lie elsewhere. Once, much of what moved out of Northern California came through these communities, but now the Strait seems left with only the detritus of California’s past. The detritus still possesses a grim grandeur. To the east, the Mothball Fleet— originally composed of transports and battleships that helped win World War II— cluster tightly together, toxic and rusting, in Suisun Bay. Just west of the bridges, Mare Island (really a peninsula with a slough running through it) sits across the mouth of the Napa River. The United States established a naval base and shipyard there in 1854, and the island remained central to US military efforts from the Civil Boom: A Journal of California, Vol. 2, Number 2, pps 55–69.
