PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Overview
• This report summarizes the findings of the Phase II Beachfront Improvement Feasibility Study effort, a 21 month process started in February of 2021, concluding November 2022. • Preceding and accompanying this Final Report are the City of Oceanside - Phase II Beachfront Improvement Feasibility Study - Discovery Phase Report (August 2022) and the City of Oceanside - Phase II Beachfront Improvement Feasibility Study - Appendix 01 - Site/Facilities Condition Assessment (August 2022). Both of those reports summarize Discovery Phase analysis and findings, including existing condition assessment. • The Final Report divides in two sections: 1) Summary findings and recommendations for each of the sites within the study area, and 2) Summary of options reviewed and public outreach. • The recommendations described represent the consensus view developed during the process based on a review of several options for each site within the study area.
• The recommendations describe a framework for decision-making, based on community input, regarding potential future capital projects, identifying scope, configuration, and preliminary estimates of project costs. The conclusions of the Feasibility Study neither mandate implementation of any of the proposed recommendations, nor preclude modification of any of the recommendations at a future time. • A Feasibility Study is a pre-design phase effort. Detailed design of any of the options presented is not a part of the scope of the Feasibility Study. Renderings created during this process are illustrations provided to facilitate an understanding of the general scale, massing, character and configuration of a recommended option and do not reflect a final design outcome. It is anticipated architectural design of these facilities will include an iterative, community driven process to be continued in future phases, if and when any of the recommended options move forward. • The primary focus of the study is on two sites within the feasibility study site area: The Junior Seau Beach Community Center, the Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell and the plaza between the two. Those sites are the priorities identified by City leadership at the May 20, 2020 City Council meeting. During the feasibility study process a concept was studied and illustrated for Betty's Lot, an adjoining parcel at the beachfront. The Betty's Lot site was not scoped as a primary focus of the study nor was it identified as a priority at the project outset. The concept illustrated and described in this report is provided as information for consideration. It is presented as a conceptual, long range planning study, outside of the preliminary scope established for this Feasibility Study.

PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY
1 Study Site and Background
• The study site extends from the Junior Seau Beach Community Center to the north, Seagaze Drive to the south, the Strand to the west and N. Pacific Street on the east.
• The Oceanside Pier and Pier Bridge sits between the The Junior Seau Beach Community Center and the Junior Seau Amphitheater and Bandshell. The Pier View Bridge and Lifeguard Headquarters Project is the subject of a 2021 project to either upgrade/refurbish or replace the structure and is not included in this feasibility study . The Pier View Bridge and Lifeguard Headquarters Project is also not included in Appendix 01 - Site/Facilities Condition Assessment. • Located south of the amphitheater is the Beachfront Operations Center completed in 2022. This facility includes a police substation, public works maintenance building and beachfront public restrooms. This facility is also not included in this feasibility study or Appendix 01 - Site/Facilities Condition Assessment. • Three facilities are the subject of Appendix 01 - Site/Facilities Condition Assessment: The Junior Seau Beach Community Center, the Junior Seau Amphitheater and the Junior Seau Bandshell. • The Junior Seau Beach Community Center, renamed in 2012, is a single story structure constructed in 1955 and totals 16,884 SF. The building replaced a structure on the site built in 1946. • The Junior Seau Beach Community Center was partially renovated in 1985 and again in the 2000's. In 1992, a 45 foot ocean mural was added to the north elevation of the community center. • The Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater, renamed in 2012, is a cast in place concrete structure, built in 1937 as a project of the Works Progress Administration. The amphitheater was altered in the 1950's. • The amphitheater has a total seating capacity of approximately 2,500, with 1,500 seated in the stepped concrete seating and another 1,000 seated at the Strand level.
• The first bandshell structure was built on the site in 1919, prior to the construction of the amphitheater. In 1927, the original bandshell structure was enlarged, remodeled and relocated at the southwestern corner of the current amphitheater site.
• The 1927 bandshell was dismantled in 1948 due to termite infestation. The current bandshell, now centered on the amphitheater seating, and the concrete paved area was constructed in 1950. Additional renovations to the bandshell were completed in 1953.
• A 1992 Cultural Resource Survey titled "Oceanside, California's Pride", prepared for the City of Oceanside and approved by Resolution No. R93-43 in 1993, identifies the cultural resources in the City of Oceanside at the time. Of the structures on the study site, two structures are identified in this report: the Oceanside Pier and the Bandshell. An evaluation code is identified in the report and each structure receives a code indicating its status at the time. The pier is identified as 5S3, or "not eligible for separate listing or designation under an existing or likely ordinance, but is eligible for special consideration in local planning." The bandshell is identified as 5S1 or " not eligible for the National Register, but is of local interest because the property is separately listed or designated under an existing local ordinance, or is eligible for such listing or designation."

• Facility infrastructure and building systems have reached the end of useful life and are in need of replacement and upgrade. In particular, more energy efficient systems will result in on-going operational cost savings and a reduction in energy usage.
• In general, all building finishes and materials are in need of upgrade and replacement. • Due to the age of the facilities, which pre-date current ADA requirements, insufficient disabled access is provided at all facilities and open space.
• There is insufficient parking for the Junior Seau Beach Community Center. • Vendor kiosks are poorly configured and located in a way that restricts open space opportunities adjacent to the community center and the amphitheater. In particular, additional flexible open space is needed adjacent to the amphitheater/bandshell for special event production and logistics. 2 OVERVIEW PHASEIIBEACHFRONTIMPROVEMENTFEASIBILITYSTUDY ExistingSite KEYTOEXISTINGCONDITIONSSITEPLAN(SEEFACINGPAGE)1JuniorSeauBeachCommunityCenter0Facilityinfrastructureandbuildingsystemshavereachedtheendofusefullifeandareinneedofreplacementand2 VendorKioskupgrade.Inparticular,moreenergyefficientsystemswillresultinon—goingoperationalcostsavingsandareductioninenergyusage.0Ingeneral,allbuildingfinishesandmaterialsareinneedofupgradeandreplacement.40Duetotheageofthefacilities,whichpre—datecurrentADArequirements,insufficientdisabledaccessisprovidedat 5 OceansideLifeguardHeadquartersallfacilitiesandopenspace. 60ThereisinsufficientparkingfortheJuniorSeauBeachCommunityCenter.3 VendorKioskOceansidePier(ConcretePortion)Oceanside

SUMMARY FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
JOHNSON FAVARO September 2022
PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY
PROPOSED CONCEPT SITE PLAN
• General: Proposed improvements are identified at the primary site areas that are the subject of this feasibility study; The Junior Seau Beach Community Center, the Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell and the plaza area between these facilities. Recommended concepts reflect community and interested parties input throughout the feasibility study process. The concepts and improvements identified are proposed to address the aging and deteriorating finish and utility systems at both sites and to improve facility function which includes the provision of neighborhood community recreation programming at the community center and improved access to, and enjoyment of, community events, festivals, and outdoor performances at the amphitheater and bandshell. • Junior Seau Beach Community Center : No expansion is proposed for the Junior Seau Beach Community Center. It is proposed to retain the existing building structure and restore the building and surrounding open space to a condition respectful of the building's history, while modernizing its systems. Many, throughout the process, spoke fondly of the mid-century architecture and a desire to return the building to its original appearance, where possible. Proposed are cosmetic, non-structural improvements to include repair/replacement of floor, wall, ceiling and building finishes, new energy efficient glazing within existing building openings, new doors and door hardware and new building interior and exterior code required and building identification signage. Also included are code required disabled access improvements, including path of travel modifications to the building entrance and replacement of existing restrooms.
Mechanical, plumbing and lighting systems may be upgraded and new electrical service is to be provided to the building in order to remove the existing sidewalk mounted transformer that blocks access to the building entrance.
Removal of a large planter and installation of public art are part of the improvements proposed to the plaza located at the building entrance in order to commemorate the legacy of its namesake and increase the utility of this important outdoor space for community events, community center programming, and enjoyment of the beachfront. • Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell: Deterioration of the concrete plaza and amphitheater seating, which includes cracking and spalling concrete, will over time result in damage to stair nosings and steps. This kind of damage will result eventually in closure of portions, or all of the amphitheater area. Repair of the concrete amphitheater will be extensive and at a cost that will trigger code required disabled access improvements. The nature and configuration of those improvements require reconstruction of the amphitheater seating. Proposed is a seating configuration that provides more seating capacity than currently exists, while incorporating wheelchair seating that will be required. Massing of the proposed improvements are designed to retain the profile of the coastal bluff it abuts and the general configuration and dimension of the existing amphitheater. A site ramp that connects N.
Pacific Street to the mid-tier seating area runs behind the Beach Operations Center and connects to a venue elevator that provides disabled access to the Strand, the plaza and the bandshell. The bandshell is replaced with a hardened concrete structure to withstand storm surge and high water. Stage volume is increased as necessary to accommodate a wide range of events and performances and stays below the elevation of N. Pacific Street, in conformance with the height restrictions identified in Proposition A. The bandshell includes 625 SF of backstage area. Plentiful restrooms and storage area are provided for events.

PROPOSED The community center, upper left in this illustration, is restored, systems improved and the building is made more energy efficient. No addition or expansion is proposed for the community center. Existing Pier Bridge stairs are the northern boundary of the reconstructed amphitheater seat- ing area. A new site ramp that provides access to amphitheater seating is constructed to the south of the amphitheater in the bluff area to the east of the Beach Operations Center. The new bandshell is capped at a height below the elevation of N. Pacific Street. No structures included as a part of the proposed improvements exceed height limitations prescribed in Proposition A. Primary improvements to the plaza between the amphitheater and the community center include removal of existing planters and new concrete paving. The Strand right-of-way, with restricted vehicle access between the Pier and the Beach Operations Center, is maintained as it exists for the entire length of the feasibility study site. 9PHASE

PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY
10 Junior Seau Beach Community Center
• Recommended project scope for the Junior Seau Beach Community Center includes renovation and refurbishment of the existing structure, limited to non-structural cosmetic improvements, including American for Disabilities Act (ADA) path of travel upgrades.
• The public, throughout the process, expressed significant sentimental attachment to the existing structure. Proposed is a restoration of the building that is faithful in spirit with the character of the original building as built in the 1950's, and yet includes contemporary improvements in terms of energy performance and comfort. Recommended are the use of colors, details, and signage consistent with the period of its design. • No building floor area additions are proposed to address the existing deficiency in storage space, the undersized gymnasium court space, or make improvements in recreation classroom size and quantity. • Improvements can include replacement of existing windows, doors, and clerestory light diffusing panels with more energy efficient high performance glazing to reduce solar heat gain and increase natural light in the building. New floor, ceiling and wall finishes may be replaced and code compliant energy efficient interior lighting can be added.
New building signage, doors, hardware, casework and new kitchen appliances/equipment can be installed. • The public expressed support for public art in the plaza area to commemorate Junior Seau. O'Arts; Oceanside's Master Plan for the Arts, adopted by City Council in February 6, 2019, was created to define ways the arts could contribute more to the community and define the role the City may play through the development of public projects.
A specific goal in the master plan is to "enhance Oceanside's cityscape through creative placemaking." As noted in the plan "creative placemaking includes design and the built environment but goes beyond this to encompass events, programming, public art, and other "soft" forms of cultural vitality. • Project scope shall include restoration of the plaza that fronts the building to become open space that more positively contributes to the community recreation and community event programming that takes place in the building. • Existing barriers to entrance of the building, such as the electrical transformer located in the sidewalk and large planters in the front plaza are proposed to be removed. • The Strand is exposed to coastal flooding and waves under existing conditions. As such, The Strand is categorized as having a high exposure to hazard (Coastal Hazard Vulnerability Assessment, City of Oceanside, March 2018). Finish floor of the community center is elevated approximately 1.4 feet above the elevation of the Strand in this location.
Renovation/addition options were studied for the community center that included a range of additions and other changes requiring structural upgrade of the existing facility. These options were deemed not feasible in the context of the height restrictions imposed by Proposition A. Additionally there could be potential development hurdles or constraints associated with the City's Local Coastal Program (LCP), California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and California Coastal Commission (CCC). These potential development restrictions are likely at this site based on an assessment of potential hazards, over the 75 year expected life of a renovated facility. Likely hazards include near term coastal flooding and long term anticipated sea level rise.
RESTORATION This photograph from the 1950's records the architectural character of the structure as built in 1955.
HISTORY A goal of modernization is to upgrade the facility to current codes and improved function while restoring the character of the original structure.

COMMUNITY CENTER CROSS SECTION No additions or structural changes are proposed. Finish floor of the single story building is located approxi- mately at sea level. Existing building height is at the elevation of N. Pacific Street.
Junior Seau Beach Community Center
In addition to restoring the building's appearance, faithful to the original architecture, key energy performance, infrastructure and functional improvements are necessary. Alterations to the structure must comply with current California Building Code (CBC) requirements. Revisions to interior or exterior building stud framing or change in size or configuration of window or door openings will trigger an analysis of the building structure and likely result in a required structural reconstruction of the areas that are altered in order to achieve code compliance. Structural re-construction significantly increases the cost of the restoration and may result in more extensive California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review. For that reason, no structural changes are proposed as part of the renovation and this facility may be exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities). Below are notes regarding potential renovation scope to be considered that will extend the life and functionality of the building:
• New high performance, insulated solar glazing to replace existing windows and aged translucent clerestory panels to improve energy performance and increase indoor natural light. • New concrete entrance plaza and tree grates, including removal of the existing planter.
Proposed new public art commemorating Junior Seau.
• New electrical transformer and a new main switch to be located in parking lot to replace entrance sidewalk mounted transformer in order to provide compliant disabled access to the building entrance.
• New exterior wall finish to include patching, repair and repainting. • New interior wall, ceiling and floor finishes, including refinishing of existing gymnasium flooring. • New interior and exterior doors and code compliant accessible door hardware. • New kitchen equipment and casework.
• New room identification, way-finding and building identification signage. • New accessible restrooms.
• Upgrades to fire/life safety systems, including upgrade or replacement of the existing fire alarm and smoke detection system.
• New California Title 24 compliant LED lighting and controls • New audiovisual, data, network, and information technology infrastructure and end-user equipment.
• New slurry coat refinish of the existing parking lot to include re-striping of required van accessible parking space.
• New sidewalks at the building perimeter to include a compliant path of travel and cross slopes and new sidewalk curb cuts to meet current disabled access codes. • Re-configure existing storm drainage systems as required.JUNIOR SEAUBEACHCOMMUNITYCENTERJuniorSeauBeachCommunityCenterInadditiontorestoringthebuilding'sappearance,faithfultotheoriginalarchitecture,keyenergyperformance,infrastructureandfunctionalimprovementsarenecessary.AlterationstothestructuremustcomplywithcurrentCaliforniaBuildingCode(CBC)requirements.Revisionstointeriororexteriorbuildingstudframingorchangeinsizeorconfigurationofwindowordooropeningswilltriggerananalysisofthebuildingstructureandlikelyresultinarequiredstructuralreconstructionoftheareasthatarealteredinordertoachievecodecompliance.Structuralre-constructionsignificantlyincreasesthecostoftherestorationandmayresultinmoreextensiveCaliforniaEnvironmentalQualityAct(CEQA)review.Forthatreason,nostructuralchangesareproposedaspartoftherenovationandthisfacilitymaybeexemptfromCEQApursuanttoSection15301(ExistingFacilities).Belowarenotesregardingpotentialrenovationscopetobeconsideredthatwillextendthelifeandfunctionalityofthebuilding:12 New

Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell
• Repair and reconstruction options of the amphitheater were evaluated. Repair of the existing concrete seating and access stair aisle areas is not feasible as the area of damaged concrete is extensive and the nature of water and moisture intrusion in concrete makes it inevitable that further corrosion and spalling will occur. Further, it is the damage to the steel reinforcing within the concrete which necessitates its removal and replacement structurally. Reconstruction is the only feasible option. • The extent and construction value of either repair or reconstruction, establishes the requirement, by code, for accommodation of disabled persons, which includes providing access to wheelchair seats distributed throughout the facility, access to restrooms, access to disabled parking or pick-up and drop-off, and access to the stage.
• The existing amphitheater seats approximately 1,500 at the concrete benches and accommodates another 1,000 at The Strand Level seating area for a total of 2,500 seats. The re-constructed amphitheater seats 1,606 at new bench seating. In addition, there are 24 wheelchair seats. 1,000 are still accommodated at the Strand Level seating area for a total of 2,630 seats in the proposed facility.
• The re-constructed amphitheater provides wheelchair seats distributed throughout the facility as required by code and provides sight lines for wheelchair guests that allow view over standing guests. • Aisle width at seating areas is widened to reflect current code requirements for exiting from amphitheater seats and to provide easier access to seats and greater comfort. • A site ramp that serves the amphitheater extends south of the seating area and is located in the bluff area to the east of the Beach Operations Center. The ramp provides access to the mid-tier cross aisle and to the venue elevator that provides access to the Strand level seating area and stage. The proposed site ramp is in lieu of adding an elevator access stop at N. Pacific Street. • With the proposed ramp, no structure or part of the amphitheater design extends above the elevation of N. Pacific Street, in conformance with the height restrictions prescribed by Proposition A. • The bandshell is new construction and replaces the existing bandshell. It is designed to increase the stage volume as compared to the existing bandshell and includes in the construction electrical power, lighting, and audiovisual infrastructure to support the wide variety of events at the amphitheater. • The bandshell total height will not exceed the elevation of N. Pacific Street, or approximately 29' above the Strand level, and is compliant with height restrictions prescribed by Proposition A. No structure in the recommended amphitheater and bandshell project exceeds the height restrictions prescribed by Proposition A.

Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell
• The proposed sidewalk width at the amphitheater aligns with the prevailing sidewalk width at the Pier Bridge. The wider sidewalk accommodates the large volume of people entering and exiting the venue.
It also allows spectators to view the stage during an event, from the sidewalk, without entering the amphitheater seating area.
• The Strand vehicular right-of-way is maintained as existing for the entire length of the feasibility study site. Restricted vehicle access for police, lifeguard and emergency vehicles across the site remains in place. The Strand access roadway is also required for event production vehicular access and logistics.
• The area of the Strand level audience seating area plaza located between the amphitheater and the bandshell stage, at over 5,000 SF, accommodates 1,000 people at an event (based on CBC code occupancy factor of 5 SF/person for an assembly event). • The reduced height bandshell, capped below the elevation of N. Pacific Street in compliance with Proposition A height limits, requires the addition of two light standards at each end of the amphitheater seating area. The light standards are designed to support technical stage lighting that is needed to light the bandshell stage front.
• A mid-tier cross aisle, seen in the illustration on the right, connects entrance/exit at the Pier Bridge stairs to the north and entrance/exit at the proposed site ramp to the south. • Also seen in the illustration on the right are the sloped planters designed to minimize the mass of the amphitheater structure by aligning its profile with the adjoining coastal bluff. Many in the community during outreach appreciated "greening" the structure in this way to mitigate the concrete construction. • Pre-cast seating with seat backs is added to the concrete structure in the seating area and will provide greater comfort to those attending an event.

Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell
N. PACIFIC STREET LEVEL The sidewalk abutting the amphitheater is widened to a dimension equal to sidewalk width at the Pier Bridge entrance.
It is designed to accommodate large crowds entering and exiting the venue. Landscape planting areas descend from N. Pacific Street and follow the profile of the coastal bluff.
• The sidewalk adjoining the amphitheater is widened to the same width that exists at the Pier Bridge and Pier Bridge stairs entrance.
• At N. Pacific Street level, two ramps provide disabled access to wheel chair seating at the top of the amphitheater seating area. A third site ramp that starts at the southeast corner of the amphitheater provides access to the mid-level cross aisle, a second location in the venue for wheelchair seating.
• Planted areas over the structure, descend from N. Pacific Street and contain native coastal bluff vegetation. These planting areas flank the amphitheater and take the form of a re-constituted coastal bluff in alignment with the existing bluff.
• The Pier Bridge stairs to the north and the proposed site ramp to the south provide entrance and exit from N. Pacific Street to a mid-level cross aisle that connects both sides of the amphitheater seating area. From the mid-level cross aisle, four aisle stairs provide access to amphitheater seating above and below the mid-level cross aisle. Upper tier seats can also be accessed by way of the two ramps at the top of the structure.
• Also accessed from the mid-level cross aisle is the Sound Mix, or Mixing Desk station, providing event technical crew with a center stage location to control audio and lighting production at an event.
• Restrooms are built on both sides of the amphitheater below the seating structure at both the Mid Level and Strand Level. These restrooms can be closed off with a security gate when not used for events.
• Large storage areas, totaling 2,960 SF are proposed at Strand Level, built below amphitheater seating. These storage areas are for items to support amphitheater events such as movable perimeter fencing to be installed during ticketed events, detachable stage lighting and audio/ speaker systems, projection screens, banners, and Strand Level movable seating for example.

The Amphitheater
• The cross section profile of the new amphitheater follows the general contour of the adjacent coastal bluff.
• Planting beds with native coast vegetation, built over the structure, flank both ends of the amphitheater in order to minimize its visual mass and integrate the structure with its surroundings. • Aisles are sized according to emergency egress code requirements. Front to back dimension of the proposed seating aisle is 48 inches. Existing front to back seating aisle dimension, for comparison, is 36". A greater aisle depth provides easier access.
• Wheelchair seats are distributed throughout the venue as required by code.
PLANTED SLOPE A portion of the amphitheater structure includes a sloped planting bed planted with native coastal vegetation. The profile follows the general shape of the adjoining coastal bluff. A new site ramp that starts at the southeast corner of the amphitheater provides disabled access to the Mid Level cross aisle. The elevator stops at the mid - level and provides access to the Strand Level seating areas. 24JUNIOR

26 The Bandshell
• Architectural detail provided in the concept illustrations is preliminary and does not reflect final design which will occur in a later phase. The scope of the Feasibility Study is to identify general configuration, size, placement and scope for a proposed Bandshell.
• The proposed bandshell will be a hardened structure constructed in cast-in-place concrete designed to withstand storms and high water. An accessible ramp, in lieu of a mechanical lift, provides access to the stage level for performers and large equipment.
• The proposed bandshell shall accommodate a wide variety of events including cultural festivals, musical performances, and theatrical performances.
• The bandshell design includes electrical power, house power for event productions, lighting and electrical infrastructure to support technical stage lighting and audio equipment for events. Built-in rigging to support sound and lighting equipment is integrated in the covered structure, eliminating the need to construct stage rigging for each event.
• The bandshell stage is 60 feet wide and 28 feet deep. Stage area is 1,430 SF and is fully covered.
The stage has a clear interior height of 23 feet. The existing bandshell is 45 feet wide and stage depth varies between 20 feet at the narrowest and 32 feet at the deepest. Only 15' feet of the existing stage area is covered by the bandshell structure and clear height above stage varies between 9' and 18'- 6". Existing stage area totals 1,500 SF, of which only 400 SF is covered. • The backstage area is secured and totals 625 SF and includes dressing areas, a green room, lighting and audio control panels, and a restroom. Crawl space area is provided below the stage for additional storage. Existing Bandshell backstage area totals 590 SF.
PROPOSED BANDSHELL By day, the bandshell is an open pavilion that is part of the amphitheater plaza open space, a place for enjoyment of the beachfront.
PROPOSED BANDSHELL The stage area is fully covered and the roof structure includes built-in infrastructure to support lighting and audiovisual systems. With this structure, there is no need to construct stage rigging for community events and performances.

CALIFORNIA COASTAL COMMISSION
JOHNSON FAVARO September 2022
PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY
28 California Coastal Commission
• The key to successful project development and potential mitigation strategies is early and ongoing consultation with California Coastal Commission staff. Proposals to mitigate identified impacts should be formulated early in the process and presented to Commission staff as soon as possible. • The City's certified Local Coastal Program (LCP) and Coastal Commission regulations define coastal resources and detail required protections and allowable uses affecting those resources. These definitions define the basis of mitigation requirements in connection with proposed development. • The project site is located outside the California Coastal Commission's permit jurisdiction. However, pursuant to the City's Local Coastal Program, a Coastal Permit would be issued by the City and appealable to the California Coastal Commission. • Assuming negilble or no expansion of use with a proposed renovation of the Junior Seau Beach Community Center and a limit to non-structural, cosmetic improvements, the project may be exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities). • Scope of work that would include structural revisions to Junior Seau Beach Community Center will require new building structure and foundations to meet current code, and falls outside of the definition of "repairs/maintenance". This option would result in significant reconstruction and a significantly increased investment in the structure presently located near sea level. With that increase in scope, the California Coastal Commission may require or request the City to complete a risk assessment in the context of anticipated long term sea level rise and near term increase in the frequency and severity of storms and high water since the area falls within their appeal jurisdiction.
• The Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell are significant resources with a long history at the beachfront that provide community benefit and shoreline public access. Reconstruction of the amphitheater and bandshell will require a coastal permit issued by the City and is appealable to the California Coastal Commission.
Article 6 of the Coastal Act specifically deals with development and limitations on coastal armoring and landform alteration. The new structures will be evaluated for adverse effects to wave and tidal patterns in areas adjacent to this site and the potential diminution of protection in place from storm surges to this area of the beach.
Also considered, on the other hand, will be improved public access and recreation provided by these enhanced resources which do not represent a change in use or intensity of use on this site.
• The Coastal Hazard Vulnerability Assessment, City of Oceanside, prepared by ESA in March 2018 and revised in September 2018 was provided for review as part of the Feasibility Study and is the basis for sea level rise information in this study. • Increased coastal flooding from encroaching seas and waves in the form of permanent inundation and episodic events caused by storms is the most commonly referenced sea lever rise risk.
• Future sea-level rise is expected to create a permanent rise in ocean water levels that would shift the water's edge landward. • A range of sea-level scenarios, through the year 2100 are identified in the assessment. • Projected Oceanside sea-level rise in the short term (2025 -2045), which assumes the High Range scenario for that time frame is .8 feet or 9 - 5/8". • Projected Oceanside sea-level rise in the mid term (2040 - 2070), which assumes the Mid-Range scenario for that time frame is 1' - 7-1/2". • Projected Oceanside sea-level rise in the long term (2070 - 2100), which assumes the Low Range scenario for that time frame is 3' - 3-1/2". Between 2100 and 2140, sea-level rise is projected at 5'-8-1/2".
• The potential results to community and institutional buildings located within the study site boundary include disrupted access to and from buildings, increased frequency of flooding of buildings leading to water damage and other flood related damages. • The assessment provides guidance on potential Oceanside vulnerabilities in the areas of Building Assets and Infrastructure Assets. Infrastructure assets include storm water, waste water, and domestic water management systems, transportation, coastal structures, communications, energy, and emergency response facilities. • Oceanside building assets within the project site boundary, such as the existing community center and Beach Operations Center are characterized as high potential exposure to hazard, medium sensitivity to hazard and medium-high vulnerability.
COMMUNITY CENTER Ground floor occupied areas and utility infrastructure are presently situated at sea level.
YEAR 2100 PROJECTED SEA LEVEL RISE Assuming between the years 2070 - 2100, there is a shift toward a low- er-emission service and information economy featuring cleaner technologies, projected sea level rise may be over seven feet by the year 2100, rendering the single story building un-occupiable as currently configured.

PRELIMINARY PROJECT COST PROJECTIONS
JOHNSON FAVARO January 2022
PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT PROJECT FEASIBILITY STUDY Estimate of Preliminary Construction Costs
SUMMARY COST PROJECTION
• The Feasibility Study consultant team includes a cost consultant who prepared Cost Study Plans for each of the individual study sites, summarized here. Cost estimates are based on data available at the time the estimate was prepared in August of 2022.
• The cost studies identify building and site areas associated with each study area as a basis for the estimated construction cost. Each individual cost study is a preliminary quantity based line item cost plan, identifying building/ site components and a preliminary estimate for each component line item. • Costs identified include contractor general conditions, bonds and insurance and contractor overhead, profit, prevailing wages and fee.
• The preliminary estimate of construction costs are provided as planning information for City staff and leadership to determine preliminary scope and cost of any proposed future capital improvement projects that may emerge from the Feasibility Study.
• Projected preliminary construction cost depends on schedule. See section on facing page regarding Cost Escalation and Schedule.
CONSTRUCTION COST AND PROJECT COST
• Cost studies prepared in this Feasibility study identify "hard costs" or "Construction Cost". Construction Cost is the cost for a contractor to build a project. It is the estimated value of the awarded contract to a general contractor to build the project at the conclusion of a competitive bid process. Not included in the detailed Cost Study Plans are projections for City or owner "soft costs" incurred to complete the project. Total Project Cost is the total of Construction Cost (hard cost) and owner soft costs .
• Total Project Cost, is the recommended capital cost budget for individual projects. • City, or owner, soft costs include, but are not limited to, professional design services fees, construction management fees, hazardous materials abatement, permit costs, fixtures, furnishing and equipment (FFE), owner's contingency or construction contingency, moving/storage costs, legal fees, etc. • Soft Costs at preliminary concept stages such as this are generally estimated as a percentage of Hard Costs or construction cost. The percentage applied is generally based on the project type and size. For the Junior Seau Beach Community Center and the Betty's Lot Concept, it is recommended to assume soft costs to be approximately 25% of construction cost. For the Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell, it is recommended to assume soft costs to be approximately 20% of construction cost.
• A separate phase of work is recommended to develop a selected project to a sufficient level of detail to submit for Coastal Permit from the City in order to establish a reliable project schedule and eventual project costs. 30PRELIMINARY

STUDY SCOPE AREAS METHODOLOGY AND ASSUMPTIONS
• Cost projections are based on site floor plans, site sections, views, and facility program information. In addition building floor areas and site areas were provided to the Cost Consultant. • At the concept stage of this Feasibility Study, design details are not completed or described. At this time, construction documents and detailed specifications, the basis for more detailed cost analysis and projection of a future bid outcome, are not completed. Projected costs, at this early phase, are based on costs for structures/facilities of similar size and type and reflect a completed design project, including anticipated value engineering and a competitive bid process with at least three competent bidders. The cost consultant on the project team utilizes an extensive data base for completed and on-going projects in Southern California in order to establish labor and material unit rates for these cost projections.
• The Discovery Phase Report and Appendix 01 - Site/Facilities Condition Assessment were provided to the Cost Consultant for use in preparation of the cost projections. • The cost projections assume the eventual contract will be competitively bid with qualified general and main sub- contractors, based on a design/bid/build procurement method. It is assumed the contractor will be required to pay prevailing wages.
COST ESCALATION AND SCHEDULE
• All estimated construction costs provided here are based on material and labor rates, as well as market conditions at the time of the estimate (August 2022). To determine construction cost, the Cost Consultant recommends annual rates of escalation to cover anticipated increases in cost of labor and/or materials between the date of the Feasibility Study estimate (August 2022) and the actual proposed construction start date. • Recommended annual rates of escalation:
• Community Center hypothetical construction start date and construction duration: April 2024, 16 months duration
• Amphitheater/Bandshell hypothetical construction start date and construction duration: April 2025, 24 months • Betty's Lot Concept has not been identified as a priority and therefore no construction start date is contemplated. Betty's Lot Concept projected costs are presented based on materials and labor costs at the time of the estimate (August 2022).
• No schedule for any of the individual projects has been identified at this time. For the purpose of these cost projections, hypothetical construction start dates and construction durations were identified for the Junior Seau Beach Community Center and the Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell:
• Year 1 - 8.0%
• Year 2 - 7.0%
• Years 3 - 5 - 6.0% P .A. (No projections are provided beyond year 5) 31PHASE

Architectural Design and Future Design Phases
• A Feasibility Study is a pre-design phase effort. Detailed design of any of the options presented is not a part of the scope of the Feasibility Study. Renderings created during this process are illustrations provided to facilitate an understanding of the general scale, massing, character and configuration of a recommended option and do not reflect a final design outcome. Architectural design of these facilities will include an iterative, community driven process to be continued in future phases, if and when any of the recommended options move forward. • Some in the community, during public outreach, expressed a desire that any new structure look exactly like the existing structure. Many in the community, were excited by change. It is accurate to say that most if not all in the community feel strongly that any new project fit the site and fit Oceanside. • The history of the site is long. Through that history there has been change. Several bandshells, each a different architectural style, have been built on the site. Architectural taste, building methods, and materials have changed over time.
• Oceanside has many things to draw from as a future community design process is considered including it's rich and significant architectural history. Public art created by local Oceanside talent today can also be integrated into architectural design.
• A most important consideration in the future design process is to respect the magnificent setting. It is a first principle of the feasibility study to preserve and enhance open space at the beachfront.
THE HISTORY OF BANDSHELLS The bandshell has changed appearance and location several times. There is a continuity in the design of the various bandshells, despite style differences, and a recognizable bandshell form that is common to many venues across the United States. 32ARCHITECTURAL

HOW DO WE START History and tradition should not be overlooked and Oceanside has a rich architectural legacy. When some say, "don't change a thing," it is a reflection of the need for continuity and the appreciation of a shared history. There are a variety of architectural styles in Oceanside, each tied to a moment in time. Architectural style is a reflection of the tastes of the day, culture and history. Style is also influenced by the craft of building, how things are made, the nature of materials, and how they are experienced in the environment. These images illustrate how architectural form and taste can vary but in the end fit well in the Southern California environment. 33 PHASEIIBEACHFW",2-_.._.._.._"EASIBILITYSTUDY ARCHITECTURALCHARACTER ',/I V_ ‘.ayffif.’3‘qIL;A.a!jk

PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Options Reviewed - Junior Seau Beach Community Center
• Three options were studied: Option A, a cosmetic, non-structural restoration of the existing building; Option B, full renovation of the existing building and a modest addition; and Option C, full renovation of the existing building and a larger addition including a second floor and rooftop park. • For the two options that included full renovation and some form of building addition, the new addition was intended to always blend with the environment and not overshadow the existing building. • New additions were proposed for the N. Pacific Street side of the structure and in the case of the largest addition, a second floor was proposed over the existing parking lot. The materials of the proposed additions were intended to blend with the natural beach environment and appear as a background to the mid-century building. To further blend the additions with the existing condition and focus on the beach environment and open space, the roof was treated as a park, a terraced extension of the N. Pacific Street coastal bluff landscape designed as beach trails and open space for recreation and leisure accessed from N. Pacific Street. • The more extensive renovation scope and additions were deemed not feasible in light of the requirement to re-build much of the existing building in order to bring structural performance up to current building code. There is also the challenge of obtaining a Coastal Permit issued by the City, and appealable by the California Coastal Commission, with any extensive re-development project on this site given the prospect of anticipated sea level rise over the expected life of the new structure and the sea level location of the existing site. OPTION B RENOVATION/MODEST ADDTION This view illustrates a modest single story addition on the east side of the building, which includes a rooftop park on top of the addition. Also included is a more extensive interior renovation to enlarge classrooms, which would require structural upgrade.
OPTION C RENOVATION/MAXIMUM ADDITION Included with the two story addition, is a more extensive renovation of the existing building including enlargement of classrooms and window openings at the exterior. The changes would require extensive foundation and structural revision in order to provide code required upgrade to the lateral force resisting system.
OPTION C RENOVATION/MAXIMUM ADDITION View of the option study illustrating a two story addition to the existing building at the north and east sides of the structure, and the addition of a rooftop park that connects to N.

PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Options Reviewed - Junior Seau Beach Community Center
• In addition to the options studied and reviewed on the previous pages, an option to include regulation high school basketball courts, with recommended vertical height clearance and perimeter court clearances, was studied to illustrate impacts to the existing structure and relationship of this new structure to the height restrictions prescribed in Proposition A. The study was not intended as a design outcome, but an illustration of an option to make improvements to the function of the building, while staying within the general footprint of the existing structure. • In order to get the required horizontal and vertical court clearances, the front half of the building would have to be demolished and a new structural system with a wider span and taller columns would need to be added at the southern end of the building. The new courts are moved to the south on the site to allow floor area previously devoted to the stage to be used for new, slightly larger and better configured recreation classrooms. • The building area to the east of the court is to be renovated to become new storage and support spaces for the renovated community center. The area to the west of the courts, the former classrooms becomes social space, circulation space and community center entrance facing the Strand and the community center plaza (illustrated in yellow in the aerial diagram on the facing page, far right top). • Extensive renovation is not feasible as it was a clear preference of the community to retain the existing building, regardless of the sub-standard gymnasium. Also the resulting taller structure exceeds the height limit prescribed by Proposition A. In summary, a full size, regulation basketball/volleyball court cannot be constructed at the beachfront in a way that conforms to Proposition A, without lowering the ground floor, which is not advisable at this sea level site.
REGULATION BASKETBALL/VOLLEYBALL COURTS This illustration shows the size of a regulation three court high school basketball court, which requires a horizontal clearance of 90' and a vertical clearance of 25'. Red columns indicate existing building structure conflicting with required court area. By comparison, existing facility vertical clearance is 20' - 6 at the high point and 19' - 0" at the low point.
ADDITION AND RENOVATION More than half of the southern end of the building must be demolished in order to construct a regulation high school three court basketball court. The new court is both taller and wider than the current building structure allows.
COURTS REBUILT AT SOUTH END OF BUILDING Shifting the new court space south on the property, allows some of the existing building structure on the north side to remain. The stage is demolished and this area is renovated for new program use. Assembly functions can be accommodated with retractable seating and a movable stage located at the court space when needed. 36SUMMARY

PROGRAM AREAS The renovation and expansion includes new staff office area (red), two new community recreation classrooms (light blue), storage (dark blue) and new restrooms and building support areas (pink). The floor area at the west and south sides of the building (yellow) is devoted to reception and community center entrance as well as social space with seating and other amenities surrounding the court area.
NEW STRUCTURE A new structural system, illustrated in dark yellow, with a wider span and taller columns is required to enclose the larger and higher court area. The taller structure exceeds maximum height prescribed by Proposition A. The single story flanking building areas must be restructured to meet current structural codes, with new steel members, foundations and other structure required to strengthen the lateral force-resisting system.
CLASSROOMS Two new larger and better proportioned recreation classrooms with storage (shown in blue) are built in the location of the existing stage.
CLASSROOMS With construction of a new regulation court for both volleyball and basketball, existing classrooms that face the Strand are demol- ished (shown in blue). The classrooms are too narrow and too small and the new court area overlaps with required interior circulation access to the classrooms.

SUMMARY FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
JOHNSON FAVARO September 2022
PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Options Reviewed - Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell • Three options for seating configuration were studied and presented for review. Each of the seating configuration options equaled or slightly increased the seating capacity as compared to the existing amphitheater. • Option A included larger terraces accessed from N. Pacific Street to facilitate entrance/exit of large numbers of people attending events. The south terrace, next to a proposed disabled access elevator, provided a larger area for activities associated with tickets and will-call for events. While the terraces provided views of the beach, some felt the massing of the terraces blocked views of the water from vehicles driving along N. Pacific Street. • A terraced seating option was studied which included the larger N. Pacific Street terraces and the site elevator and also included two flanking landscaped, terraced seating areas. The grass terraces provide an alternate way to attend a performance or event allowing a family, for example, to set up chairs, spread a blanket and pack a picnic meal for a concert. It was felt by many that the grass terraces would be an attractive nuisance when not in use during a concert or event.
• Option B, reduced the profile of the amphitheater structure by eliminating the extending terraces, but also included a disabled access site elevator. Many liked the "greening" of the venue in this option. • Many studies of the bandshell were presented and reviewed, including variations of height, shape and openness of the bandshell. With regard to the open bandshell, concern was expressed about acoustics and the effect of ocean winds on a performance. A full height bandshell, providing the optimal stage volume, incorporated all lighting and sound systems while maintaining optimal vertical clearance at the stage. However, a taller bandshell requires a ballot measure to approve an exception to the height restrictions established by Proposition A. OPTION A This view illustrates the configuration that includes a site elevator for disabled access and terraces that extend off N. Pacific Street that facilitate entrance and exit of large numbers attending an event or concert.
OPEN BANDSHELL Openings to the back walls of the bandshell were proposed to provide additional coastal views through the bandshell and reduce solid wall area to visually reduce its overall mass. Liked by many, for some a more open bandshell presented potential acoustic issues. Also pic- tured here is a taller bandshell than the recommended height option. Variations of how open or closed the bandshell can be, or how it can be made to change from open to closed, can be studied in a future design phase.

SUMMARY FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
JOHNSON FAVARO September 2022
PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY
OPTION B Seating configuration is similar to Option A. Extended terraces are eliminated and replaced with sloped planters that follow the gener- al profile of the coastal bluff. On the right, or south, is the disabled access site elevator accessed from N. Pacific Street. This view also illustrates a bandshell option with a more lightweight roof structure, that can open to a full height for an event and be lowered when not in use.
OPTION B This option is similar to the recommended Alternate Option C. The recommended option removes the site elevator stop at N. Pacific Street and reduces the front-to-back depth of the flanking entrance/exit terraces an additional four feet at N. Pacific Street.
TERRACED SEATING OPTION Aerial view looking southeast. The landscaped terraces with beach and stage views, allow for chairs, blankets and picnics in the venue both for events and everyday or weekend use.
TERRACED SEATING OPTION Aerial view illustrating flanking wings with grass terraces that provide an alternate seating option for concert and event attendees.

PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Betty's Lot (Lot #30) Long Range Concept Study
• The Junior Seau Beach Community Center, Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell and the plaza area in between are the priorities of the Feasibility Study. Consideration of Betty's Lot as a site for improvement has not been identified as a priority.
• The concepts for Betty's Lot illustrated in this section of the study are included to memorialize a long- range, potential future phase concept option for this site area. • This option demonstrates use of the land area at the southern end of the study site to fulfill program goals identified in the study to provide additional community recreation programming, open space and parking at the beachfront, configured in a way that accounts for potential long term sea level rise • At Strand Level is an at-grade parking structure that provides approximately 128 parking spaces (111 parking spaces currently exist on this site).
• At Mid-Level, one level above Strand Level, and above the level of anticipated sea level rise, is a beachfront park, with outdoor multi-purpose courts (basketball, volleyball, pickle ball, etc.). • At Mid-Level, adjacent to the beachfront park are four community recreation classrooms, each 1,200 SF in size. By comparison, existing recreation classrooms in the community center are 960 SF. • The vista from N. Pacific Street is maintained. The roof of the classroom area is below N. Pacific Street and is a planted roof, with terraced planting beds planted with native coastal vegetation. • Access to the mid-level beachfront park and to the parking below the park is provided by ADA compliant site ramps and paths. No elevator is required for this facility. • As illustrated, the concept is in full compliance with height restrictions imposed by Proposition A. • With regard to sea level rise, all interior floor area and critical infrastructure that supports the facility is 14'-5" above the elevation of The Strand.
N. Pacific Street Level View: Roof of structure at street level is a terraced park including multi-purpose landscaping and ramped paths.
Mid-Level View: One level down from N. Pacific Street is the beachfront park with multi-purpose courts and four community recreation classrooms.
Strand-Level View: Parking remains at existing grade, below the park, and spaces are increased from 111 to approximately 128 spaces. The Strand vehicular right-of-way is maintained for the full length of the site as it exists.

BETTY'S LOT - A PARK OVER PARKING The long range potential future phase concept for Betty's Lot increases the amount of beachfront open space for leisure and recreation, while also increasing parking as compared to existing conditions. A modest amount of floor area for indoor community recre- ation classrooms mid-level, is one floor above the Strand, and below a new street side park. The concept proposal is a demonstration of potential development of the site in a way that anticipates sea level rise and delivers open space and neighborhood community recreation programming if needed in the future.

PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT AND OUTREACH
JOHNSON FAVARO January 2022
PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT PROJECT FEASIBILITY STUDY 49 Summary of Community Comments
Discovery Phase Summary
• For many there is a strong attachment to the existing facilities. Many prefer renovation over new construction.
• Most agree, improvements must be made to finishes and utility infrastructure, given the age and condition of the facilities. Most, if not all, agree that access to the disabled must be improved and brought into compliance with current code.
• Many were open to "creative thinking" with regard to improvements, including suggestions to make use of the roofs, or find ways to increase parking, for example.
Renovation or new construction:
• The study site area is very important public open space. • No uses should be proposed on the study site other than current uses of the site: public open space; community center programming, community recreation programming, and amphitheater events. • Oceanside is home to a diverse community and has a unique character as compared to other Southern California coastal cities. Oceanside has a long history and a distinct character to be preserved. • Programs provided here should serve the neighborhood residents and be easily accessible. Several stated they should not have to drive to other facilities for community recreation programming not currently offered at the Junior Seau Beach Community Center.
• Many are concerned that a change to the facilities will result in a change in how they are operated and financed. It is a priority that these public facilities remain easily accessible, affordable, diverse in programming, and properly maintained and supported.
Consensus on priorities:
• The perceived effects of gentrification that have increased land value, prompted denser and taller development seem, to many, to have negatively changed the special character of Oceanside. • Many say that they feel the negative impacts of new development but receive little benefit in return and look to elected leadership to correct this perceived imbalance. • To some the current development and approval process is opaque and the benefits and impacts of new development are not fairly distributed.
Land Use and Gentrification:
Option Development Phase Summary
• There was widespread agreement on the recommended renovation scope and approach for the community center. Recommended renovation scope is limited to cosmetic, non-structural improvements to include ADA path of travel improvements. Many like the addition of proposed public art commemorating Junior Seau. • Many approved of the more open plaza in front of the community center, free of beachfront vendors. • Many want to improve comfort in the building with improved systems and more natural light and all want to improve energy efficiency with any new improvements.
• Many liked one or the other of the more extensive renovation options presented which included additions and structural modifications to the existing structure, but understood the situation of the existing building at sea level, and the implications of potential extensive modifications and the risk of damage from a future storm or projected sea level rise. This existing condition presents significant challenges to obtaining a Coastal Permit, which is appealable by the California Coastal Commission, when considering the more ambitious renovation/ addition options presented.
• Many understood that limiting renovation to non-structural improvements would not change the size or quantity of recreation classrooms for programming or result in change to the sub-standard dimensions of the existing basketball courts.
• Many understood that while meaningful improvements can be made to the existing structure within the constraint of non-structural scope, there is a risk over the expected life of the building that an ocean storm resulting in high water may damage the structure and finishes. A few said that plans for replacement in another location should be made in the event the current structure is closed due to storm damage.
Junior Seau Beachfront Community Center
A range of options for each of the sites within the Study area were presented at the May 25, 2022 Option Development Community Outreach Meeting. At the final Community Outreach Meeting on August 17, 2022, recommendations for each of the study sites were presented. The following notes summarize community input at the two meetings:
• Many, if not most, in attendance at the Community Outreach Meetings expressed a preference to avoid a vote to approve an exception to Proposition A for any improvements proposed within the Study site area.
While many understood the merits of particular exceptions identified in some of the options presented, this was commonly expressed as a fear that a public vote would be politically divisive, expensive, or might not succeed.

JOHNSON FAVARO January 2022
PHASE II BEACHFRONT IMPROVEMENT PROJECT FEASIBILITY STUDY 50 Option Development Phase Summary
• General: As the project moves forward be sure to include sustainable design and energy efficiency and conservation measures where possible.
• Seating area: Many liked Option A (option with broader terraces extending off N. Pacific Street) which provides lookouts for viewing the beachfront and additional area for walking along N. Pacific Street.
Many liked the "green" areas in Option B (option more closely replicating the profile of the existing bluff).
Generally, there was not a strong opinion between Option A and Option B. • Many, if not most, expressed a preference to avoid a vote to approve an exception to Proposition A for either the site elevator or the taller bandshell presented.
• Seating area: Some were conflicted with regard to eliminating the N. Pacific Street level entrance to the disabled access site elevator and providing instead a lengthy ramp to wheel chair seat locations and access to the site elevator at a lower elevation. Comments ranged from "I don't wish a ramp on anybody" to it is "good exercise."
• Seating area: Two clear suggestions were to study an option to provide ramped access to a lower elevator entrance to avoid a Proposition A "exception" vote and look for ways to add more green space to break up concrete areas.
• Bandshell: There were mixed reviews on the visual appeal of the higher versus lower bandshell options presented.
• Bandshell: Many said that there need to be more options studied to address the architectural design and character of the bandshell. Some in attendance said the new bandshell should either look exactly like the existing bandshell or very similar to the existing bandshell. • Bandshell: Many liked the visibility of the "open" bandshell design but were concerned about acoustics, stating that ocean noise and wind could be a distraction to musicians with the open design. • Bandshell: Several said the stairs that run the full length of the stage front are not required and should be removed.
• Bandshell: Several requested that more backstage area be added to the bandshell for storage, dressing rooms, etc. and add storage below the bandshell on another level. Several asked if crawl space could be added below stage level to increase storage.
Junior Seau Pier Amphitheater and Bandshell
• Many liked the basketball/multi-use courts, recreation areas, recreation classrooms, and beachfront park built over parking. "Park above parking is a great idea" and decking over Betty's Lot is "super smart." • Several appreciated that the proposed concept is forward thinking and anticipates sea level rise at the beachfront.
• Many commented on opening up the parking structure to more natural light either in the form of skylights or opening up the facade of the structure.
• Most people in attendance shared the strong opinion that there is insufficient parking at the beachfront and that parking provided should be free. Many people in attendance liked the idea of decking over Betty's Lot to retain and increase parking, as illustrated in the concept, but suggested that further study should be undertaken to expand the concept to add even more parking in this location. • Some in attendance felt strongly that there is no need to change anything at Betty's Lot. They said the proposal eliminates the last open air surface parking lot in the area, a very popular lot for surfers, and that a parking structure does not provide the same experience.
Betty's Lot
Below is a general summary of the comments from the 5/25/22 Option Development Community Outreach Meeting: Below is a general summary of the comments from the 8/17/22 Final Community Outreach Meeting:
The general character of comments from the community in attendance recorded in the notes below was the same for both the 5/25/22 Option Development Community Outreach Meeting and the 8/17/22 Final Community Outreach Meeting.
• Ensure as the project moves forward that the amphitheater and bandshell are designed for a wide range of events from cultural events, musical performance to theatrical performance. • Several shared concerns that improvements to the bandshell and amphitheater may make affordable access to the community more difficult or result in less use by community organizations. A clear majority throughout the process want to ensure that use of the facility remains physically and financially accessible to all members of the Oceanside community.
• Acknowledging that more detailed architectural design will take place in a future phase of work, several opinions on the future design of the bandshell were shared ranging from an appreciation of the influence of Irving Gill, a notable architect with several landmarks in the Oceanside area to requests that the future design resemble more closely the existing bandshell given the strong sentimental attachment with the existing bandshell.PUBLIC
