OUR LETTER TO THE PORT:
*Feel free to update and add your personalized sentiments!
​
To Whom It May Concern:

​
Please accept these objections to the Proposed Master Plan Update by the Port of San Diego as it relates to Planning District 1 Shelter Island/La Playa. 
 
Summary of Objections:
​
  • Exceeding Point Loma’s 30-foot height limit in District 1 and all subdistricts
  • Additional 1,600 rooms throughout Shelter Island East and West, a nearly 200% increase from current occupancy
  • The narrowing of Scott Street and Shelter Island Drive, with shared bike lanes
  • The addition of “mobility hubs” and/or parking structures in residential neighborhoods
  • The removal of historic La Playa Piers
  • Bayfront uses that focus on “visitor-serving” and “attracting visitors” but that fail to recognize the impact on the existing adjacent residents.
  • Public transit/water taxi service within La Playa basin or Kellogg beach
  • Any path around the shoreline and through the 3 Yacht Club in this district: Silver Gate Yacht Club, San Diego Yacht Club, Southwestern Yacht Club
  • Any improvements that force existing property owners to pay for improvements
  • Additional transient anchorage/wharfage
  • 20’ wide promenades connecting La Playa trail to Shelter Island
  • “Amenities” at the Talbot Street trailhead
  • Additional 70,000 sqft of retail and restaurant space on Shelter Island
 
Please Include in the Master Plan
  • ​Continued support of our maritime industry related businesses
  • Ideas about public water transit from Shelter Island to downtown/Coronado
  • Maintain open space along Shelter Island for communal usage, recreation, BBQ’s, fire pits
  • Support and maintain new boat launch/public access on Shelter Island
  • Maintain free off street parking to allow for employees that serve the maritime industry and surrounding businesses accessibility.
  • Maintain limited access to Kellogg and La Playa consistent with the isolated and low intensive recreational use orientation which is geared to serve the immediate neighborhood
  • Replenishment of sand at Kellogg Beach to prevent excessive shoreline erosion
  • Preserving Point Loma’s historic landscape to better connect Point Loma history with the design of the bay front.
  • Nurture the wetlands habitat around the La Playa basin and improve ecosystems that were native to the area. Attract birds, invertebrate and wetland vegetation. Possibly create a “living shoreline” 
 
Sincerely,
​
