Coastal Development Permit 2025 04 and Use Permit 2025 01UP 2025 1 Arena Cove Ca — Point Arena City Council, July 21, 2026 (part 2 of 2)

Obscure Bumble Bee (Bombus caliginosus). Obscure bumble bees utilize grassy coastal prairies and coast range meadows. They nest underground. However, in numerous protocol level surveys, this species was not identified. The proposed campground will be located in a ruderal field which has undergone disturbance for a number of years. This area lacks many insect species, which is likely related to the fact that many of the plants found in this area are not native.

Western Bumble Bee (Bombus occidentalis). Western bumble bees utilize grassy coastal prairies and coast range meadows. They nest underground in cavities such as squirrel holes.

However, in numerous protocol level surveys, this species was not identified. The proposed campground will be located in a ruderal field which has undergone disturbance for a number of years. This area lacks many insect species, which is likely related to the fact that many of the plants found in this area are not native.

Townsend’s Big-eared Bat (Corynorhinus townsendii). Townsend’s Big-eared bats utilize riparian woodlands for habitat. This species was not identified in any protocol-level surveys.

The riparian woodland will not be impacted by any of the proposed development.

Stellar Sea Lion (Eumetopias jubatus). Stellar Sea Lions are found in the Pacific Ocean and use rocky beaches as haul outs and rookeries. Pupping season is typically May through July. Noise from construction at the pier has the potential to impact Stellar Sea Lions. However, pups are usually kept on the beach for approximately two weeks before they begin foraging with their mothers. While Stellar Sea Lions are not known to haul out at Arena Cove, a designated biologist can be utilized to watch for Stellar Sea Lion haul out and construction will be stopped if the beach is utilized as a rookery.

Gualala Roach (Hesperoleucus parvipinnis). Arena Creek is not designated to have critical habitat for Gualala Roach. However, it is possible that this species is present. In analyzing the project, the repairs and rehabilitation to Arena Pier are in close proximity of the creek, neither have any components that would impact the creek itself.

Pink Salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha). Pink Salmon return to their natal stream from June through September and spawn July through October. A designated biologist will survey the creek twice a week, starting in July and if any salmonid species are present, work will stop within 48 hours.

Coho Salmon – central California coast ESU (Oncorhynchus kisutch). Arena Creek has a known population of Coho salmon. Migration must be considered. Surveys will be conducted starting 143
in September to see if this species is present and if so, work will stop. Work will likely have to stop in September due to weather conditions and tidal conditions that make it unsafe to work.

Steelhead – northern California DPS (Oncorhynchus mykiss irideus pop. 49). Steelhead (population 49) return to their natal stream from February through April and spawn during this time. Avoidance measures do not need to be taken as work will be stopped for the winter season due to weather constraints.

Northern Red-legged Frog (Rana aurora). Arena Creek is designated as habitat for the Northern Red-legged Frog. This creek has been surveyed by Dark Gulch staff on April 1 and May 25 2025 to determine the presence of any amphibian species. This protocol-level survey did not indicate the presence of the Northern Red-legged Frog.

Foothill Yellow-legged Frog (Rana boylii). Arena Creek is designated as habitat for the Foothill Yellow-legged Frog. This creek has been surveyed by Dark Gulch staff on April 1 and May 25 2025 to determine the presence of any amphibian species. This protocol-level survey did not indicate the presence of the Yellow-legged Frog.

Southern Torrent Salamander (Rhyacotriton variegatus). Arena Creek is designated as habitat for the Southern Torrent Salamander. This creek has been surveyed by Dark Gulch staff on April 1 and May 25 2025 to determine the presence of any amphibian species. This protocollevel survey did not indicate the presence of the Southern Torrent Salamander 144

7.0 Avoidance Measures
This project is in a delicate environment, with the mouth of Point Arena Creek located approximately 200 feet to the south and the following avoidance measures are recommended:

1. Point Arena Creek has a population of Onchorhynchus kisutch (coho salmon) and migration must be considered. A designated biologist will be employed to oversee the environmental components of this project. Surveys will be conducted in September and work will halt immediately if any salmonid species are present.

2. The designated biologist will also monitor for Stellar Sea Lions (Eumetopia jubatus), and if a rookery develops on the surrounding beach, work will stop immediately.

3. The designated biologist will be onsite during any proposed pile driving and if any Marbled Murrelets (Brachyramphus marmoratus) are observed in the Arena Cove area, pile driving will stop until such time as the birds have left the area.

4. Best Management Practices (BMP’s) for this project shall include the following:

A. All wood will be cut in an area away from any water source. All sawdust produced will be swept up on a minimum of a daily basis to prevent intrusion into coastal waterways.

B. All small wood debris will be gathered and disposed of properly to prevent any impacts on coastal waterways.

C. No application of preservatives will take place over coastal waterways. All application of preservative to raw wood will take place in the staging area, over a protective membrane to prevent any spills or contamination of coastal waterways. This will also prevent any run-off from entering the storm-water system.

D. Holes and other boring of pressure treated wood will take place in an area away from any water source. All debris generated will be swept up on a minimum of a daily basis to prevent intrusion into coastal waterways. 145

IPaC resource list
This report is an automatically generated list of species and other resources such as critical habitat (collectively referred to as trust resources) under the U.S.

Fish and Wildlife Service's (USFWS) jurisdiction that are known or expected to be on or near the project area referenced below. The list may also include trust resources that occur outside of the project area, but that could potentially be directly or indirectly affected by activities in the project area. However, determining the likelihood and extent of effects a project may have on trust resources typically requires gathering additional site-specific (e.g., vegetation/species surveys) and project-specific (e.g., magnitude and timing of proposed activities) information.

Below is a summary of the project information you provided and contact information for the USFWS office(s) with jurisdiction in the defined project area.

Please read the introduction to each section that follows (Endangered Species, Migratory Birds, USFWS Facilities, and NWI Wetlands) for additional information applicable to the trust resources addressed in that section.

Endangered species
This resource list is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an analysis of project level impacts.

The primary information used to generate this list is the known or expected range of each species. Additional areas of influence (AOI) for species are also considered. An AOI includes areas outside of the species range if the species could be indirectly affected by activities in that area (e.g., placing a dam upstream of a fish population even if that fish does not occur at the dam site, may indirectly impact the species by reducing or eliminating water flow downstream). Because species can move, and site conditions can change, the species on this list are not guaranteed to be found on or near the project area.

To fully determine any potential effects to species, additional site-specific and project-specific information is often required.

Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act requires Federal agencies to "request of the Secretary information whether any species which is listed or proposed to be listed may be present in the area of such proposed action" for any project that is conducted, permitted, funded, or licensed by any Federal agency. A letter from the local office and a species list which fulfills this requirement can only be obtained by requesting an official species list from either the Regulatory Review section in IPaC (see directions below) or from the local field office directly.

For project evaluations that require USFWS concurrence/review, please return to the IPaC website and request an official species list by doing the following:

1. Draw the project location and click CONTINUE.

2. Click DEFINE PROJECT.

3. Log in (if directed to do so).

4. Provide a name and description for your project.

5. Click REQUEST SPECIES LIST.

Bald & Golden Eagles FAQs
What does IPaC use to generate the potential presence of bald and golden eagles in my specified location? The potential for eagle presence is derived from data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN). The AKN data is based on a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets and is queried and filtered to return a list of those birds reported as occurring in the 10km grid cell(s) which your project intersects, and that have been identified as warranting special attention because they are an eagle (Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act requirements may apply).

Proper interpretation and use of your eagle report
On the graphs provided, please look carefully at the survey effort (indicated by the black vertical line) and for the existence of the "no data" indicator (a red horizontal line). A high survey effort is the key component. If the survey effort is high, then the probability of presence score can be viewed as more dependable. In contrast, a low survey effort line or no data line (red horizontal) means a lack of data and, therefore, a lack of certainty about presence of the species. This list is not perfect; it is simply a starting point for identifying what birds have the potential to be in your project area, when they might be there, and if they might be breeding (which means nests might be present). The list and associated information help you know what to look for to confirm presence and helps guide you in knowing when to implement avoidance and minimization measures to eliminate or reduce potential impacts from your project activities or get the appropriate permits should presence be confirmed.

How do I know if eagles are breeding, wintering, or migrating in my area? To see what part of a particular bird's range your project area falls within (i.e. breeding, wintering, migrating, or resident), you may query your location using the RAIL Tool and view the range maps provided for birds in your area at the bottom of the profiles provided for each bird in your results. If an eagle on your IPaC migratory bird species list has a breeding season associated with it (indicated by yellow vertical bars on the phenology graph in your “IPaC PROBABILITY OF PRESENCE SUMMARY” at the top of your results list), there may be nests present at some point within the timeframe specified. If "Breeds elsewhere" is indicated, then the bird likely does not breed in your project area.

Interpreting the Probability of Presence Graphs
Each green bar represents the bird's relative probability of presence in the 10km grid cell(s) your project overlaps during a particular week of the year. A taller bar indicates a higher probability of species presence. The survey effort can be used to establish a level of confidence in the presence score.

How is the probability of presence score calculated? The calculation is done in three steps:

The probability of presence for each week is calculated as the number of survey events in the week where the species was detected divided by the total number of survey events for that week. For example, if in week 12 there were 20 survey events and the Spotted Towhee was found in 5 of them, the probability of presence of the Spotted Towhee in week 12 is

0.25. To properly present the pattern of presence across the year, the relative probability of presence is calculated. This is the probability of presence divided by the maximum probability of presence across all weeks. For example, imagine the probability of presence in week 20 for the Spotted Towhee is 0.05, and that the probability of presence at week 12 (0.25) is the maximum of any week of the year. The relative probability of presence on week 12 is 0.25/0.25 = 1; at week 20 it is 0.05/0.25 = 0.2.

The relative probability of presence calculated in the previous step undergoes a statistical conversion so that all possible values fall between 0 and 10, inclusive. This is the probability of presence score.

Breeding Season ()
Yellow bars denote a very liberal estimate of the time-frame inside which the bird breeds across its entire range. If there are no yellow bars shown for a bird, it does not breed in your project area.

Survey Effort ()
Vertical black lines superimposed on probability of presence bars indicate the number of surveys performed for that species in the 10km grid cell(s) your project area overlaps.

No Data ()
A week is marked as having no data if there were no survey events for that week.

Survey Timeframe
Surveys from only the last 10 years are used in order to ensure delivery of currently relevant information. The exception to this is areas off the Atlantic coast, where bird returns are based on all years of available data, since data in these areas is currently much more sparse.

Migratory birds
The data in this location indicates that no eagles have been observed in this area. This does not mean eagles are not present in your project area, especially if the area is difficult to survey. Please review the 'Steps to Take When No Results Are Returned' section of the Supplemental Information on Migratory Birds and Eagles document to determine if your project is in a poorly surveyed area. If it is, you may need to rely on other resources to determine if eagles may be present (e.g. your local FWS field office, state surveys, your own surveys).

Measures for Proactively Minimizing Migratory Bird Impacts Your IPaC Migratory Bird list showcases birds of concern, including Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC), in your project location. This is not a comprehensive list of all birds found in your project area. However, you can help proactively minimize significant impacts to all birds at your project location by implementing the measures in the Nationwide avoidance and minimization measures for birds document, and any other project-specific avoidance and minimization measures suggested at the link Measures for avoiding and minimizing impacts to birds for the birds of concern on your list below.

Ensure Your Migratory Bird List is Accurate and Complete If your project area is in a poorly surveyed area, your list may not be complete and you may need to rely on other resources to determine what species may be present (e.g. your local FWS field office, state surveys, your own surveys). Please review the Supplemental Information on Migratory Birds and Eagles document, to help you properly interpret the report for your specified location, including determining if there is sufficient data to ensure your list is accurate.

For guidance on when to schedule activities or implement avoidance and minimization measures to reduce impacts to migratory birds on your list, see the "Probability of Presence Summary" below to see when these birds are most likely to be present and breeding in your project area.

The graphs below provide our best understanding of when birds of concern are most likely to be present in your project area. This information can be used to tailor and schedule your project activities to avoid or minimize impacts to birds. Please make sure you read "Supplemental Information on Migratory Birds and Eagles", specifically the FAQ section titled "Proper Interpretation and Use of Your Migratory Bird Report" before using or attempting to interpret this report.

Probability of Presence ( )
Each green bar represents the bird's relative probability of presence in the 10km grid cell(s) your project overlaps during a particular week of the year. (A year is represented as 12 4-week months.) A taller bar indicates a higher probability of species presence. The survey effort (see below) can be used to establish a level of confidence in the presence score. One can have higher confidence in the presence score if the corresponding survey effort is also high.

How is the probability of presence score calculated? The calculation is done in three steps:

1. The probability of presence for each week is calculated as the number of survey events in the week where the species was detected divided by the total number of survey events for that week. For example, if in week 12 there were 20 survey events and the Spotted Towhee was found in 5 of them, the probability of presence of the Spotted Towhee in week 12 is 0.25.

2. To properly present the pattern of presence across the year, the relative probability of presence is calculated. This is the probability of presence divided by the maximum probability of presence across all weeks. For example, imagine the probability of presence in week 20 for the Spotted Towhee is 0.05, and that the probability of presence at week 12 (0.25) is the maximum of any week of the year. The relative probability of presence on week 12 is 0.25/0.25 = 1; at week 20 it is 0.05/0.25 = 0.2.

3. The relative probability of presence calculated in the previous step undergoes a statistical conversion so that all possible values fall between 0 and 10, inclusive. This is the probability of presence score.

To see a bar's probability of presence score, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.

Breeding Season ( )
Yellow bars denote a very liberal estimate of the time-frame inside which the bird breeds across its entire range. If there are no yellow bars shown for a bird, it does not breed in your project area.

Survey Effort ( )
Vertical black lines superimposed on probability of presence bars indicate the number of surveys performed for that species in the 10km grid cell(s) your project area overlaps. The number of surveys is expressed as a range, for example, 33 to 64 surveys.

To see a bar's survey effort range, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.

Migratory Bird FAQs
Tell me more about avoidance and minimization measures I can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds.

Nationwide Avoidance & Minimization Measures for Birds describes measures that can help avoid and minimize impacts to all birds at any location year-round. When birds may be breeding in the area, identifying the locations of any active nests and avoiding their destruction is one of the most effective ways to minimize impacts. To see when birds are most likely to occur and breed in your project area, view the Probability of Presence Summary. Additional measures or permits may be advisable depending on the type of activity you are conducting and the type of infrastructure or bird species present on your project site.

What does IPaC use to generate the list of migratory birds that potentially occur in my specified location? The Migratory Bird Resource List is comprised of Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) and other species that may warrant special attention in your project location, such as those listed under the Endangered Species Act or the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and those species marked as “Vulnerable”. See the FAQ “What are the levels of concern for migratory birds?” for more information on the levels of concern covered in the IPaC migratory bird species list.

The migratory bird list generated for your project is derived from data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN). The AKN data is based on a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets and is queried and filtered to return a list of those birds reported as occurring in the 10km grid cell(s) with which your project intersects. These species have been identified as warranting special attention because they are BCC species in that area, an eagle (Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act requirements may apply), or a species that has a particular vulnerability to offshore activities or development.

Again, the Migratory Bird Resource list includes only a subset of birds that may occur in your project area. It is not representative of all birds that may occur in your project area. To get a list of all birds potentially present in your project area, and to verify survey effort when no results present, please visit the Rapid Avian Information Locator (RAIL) Tool.

Why are subspecies showing up on my list?
Subspecies profiles are included on the list of species present in your project area because observations in the AKN for the species are being detected. If the species are present, that means that the subspecies may also be present. If a subspecies shows up on your list, you may need to rely on other resources to determine if that subspecies may be present (e.g. your local FWS field office, state surveys, your own surveys).

What does IPaC use to generate the probability of presence graphs for the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location? The probability of presence graphs associated with your migratory bird list are based on data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN). This data is derived from a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets.

Probability of presence data is continuously being updated as new and better information becomes available. To learn more about how the probability of presence graphs are produced and how to interpret them, go to the Probability of Presence Summary and then click on the "Tell me about these graphs" link.

How do I know if a bird is breeding, wintering, or migrating in my area? To see what part of a particular bird's range your project area falls within (i.e. breeding, wintering, migrating, or resident), you may query your location using the RAIL Tool and view the range maps provided for birds in your area at the bottom of the profiles provided for each bird in your results. If a bird on your IPaC migratory bird species list has a breeding season associated with it (indicated by yellow vertical bars on the phenology graph in your “IPaC PROBABILITY OF PRESENCE SUMMARY” at the top of your results list), there may be nests present at some point within the timeframe specified. If "Breeds elsewhere" is indicated, then the bird likely does not breed in your project area. 156
What are the levels of concern for migratory birds?
Migratory birds delivered through IPaC fall into the following distinct categories of concern:

1. "BCC Rangewide" birds are Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) that are of concern throughout their range anywhere within the USA (including Hawaii, the Pacific Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands);

2. "BCC - BCR" birds are BCCs that are of concern only in particular Bird Conservation Regions (BCRs) in the continental USA; and

3. "Non-BCC - Vulnerable" birds are not BCC species in your project area, but appear on your list either because of the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act requirements (for eagles) or (for non-eagles) potential susceptibilities in offshore areas from certain types of development or activities (e.g. offshore energy development or longline fishing).

Although it is important to avoid and minimize impacts to all birds, efforts should be made, in particular, to avoid and minimize impacts to the birds on this list, especially BCC species.

For more information on avoidance and minimization measures you can implement to help avoid and minimize migratory bird impacts, please see the FAQ “Tell me more about avoidance and minimization measures I can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds”.

Details about birds that are potentially affected by offshore projects For additional details about the relative occurrence and abundance of both individual bird species and groups of bird species within your project area off the Atlantic Coast, please visit the Northeast Ocean Data Portal. The Portal also offers data and information about other taxa besides birds that may be helpful to you in your project review. Alternately, you may download the bird model results files underlying the portal maps through the NOAA NCCOS Integrative Statistical Modeling and Predictive Mapping of Marine Bird Distributions and Abundance on the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf project webpage.

Proper interpretation and use of your migratory bird report The migratory bird list generated is not a list of all birds in your project area, only a subset of birds of priority concern. To learn more about how your list is generated and see options for identifying what other birds may be in your project area, please see the FAQ "What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location".

Please be aware this report provides the "probability of presence" of birds within the 10 km grid cell(s) that overlap your project; not your exact project footprint. On the graphs provided, please look carefully at the survey effort (indicated by the black vertical line) and for the existence of the "no data" indicator (a red horizontal line). A high survey effort is the key component. If the survey effort is high, then the probability of presence score can be viewed as more dependable. In contrast, a low survey effort bar or no data bar means a lack of data and, therefore, a lack of certainty about presence of the species. This list does not represent all birds present in your project area. It is simply a starting point for identifying what birds of concern have the potential to be in your project area, when they might be there, and if they might be breeding (which means nests might be present). The list and associated information help you know what to look for to confirm presence and helps guide implementation of avoidance and minimization measures to eliminate or reduce potential impacts from your project activities, should presence be confirmed. To learn more about avoidance and minimization measures, visit the FAQ "Tell me about avoidance and minimization measures I can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds".

How is the probability of presence score calculated? The calculation is done in three steps:

Survey Effort ()
Vertical black lines superimposed on probability of presence bars indicate the number of surveys performed for that species in the 10km grid cell(s) your project area overlaps.

No Data ()
A week is marked as having no data if there were no survey events for that week.

Wetlands in the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI)
Impacts to NWI wetlands and other aquatic habitats may be subject to regulation under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, or other State/Federal statutes.

For more information please contact the Regulatory Program of the local U.S. Army Corps of Engineers District.

Please note that the NWI data being shown may be out of date. We are currently working to update our NWI data set. We recommend you verify these results with a site visit to determine the actual extent of wetlands on site.

This location overlaps the following wetlands:

NOTE: This initial screening does not replace an on-site delineation to determine whether wetlands occur. Additional information on the NWI data is provided below.

Data limitations
The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level information on the location, type and size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis of high altitude imagery. Wetlands are identified based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography. A margin of error is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on-the-ground inspection of any particular site may result in revision of the wetland boundaries or classification established through image analysis.

The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts, the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth verification work conducted. Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the source imagery used and any mapping problems.

Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or field work. There may be occasional differences in polygon boundaries or classifications between the information depicted on the map and the actual conditions on site.

Data exclusions
Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and nearshore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery.

Data precautions
Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may define and describe wetlands in a different manner than that used in this inventory. There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this inventory, to define the limits of proprietary jurisdiction of any Federal, state, or local government or to establish the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies. Persons intending to engage in activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate Federal, state, or local agencies concerning specified agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may affect such activities.

To: Point Arena City Council / City Planner
Date: 7/19/2026
Re: Comments on CDP 2025-4 and UP 2025-1 (Public Hearing 7/21/2026) Dear Council,
We have always thought that the “rock wall” lot owned by our city would be a great locaƟon for a small, low-key campground. We do have several concerns and suggesƟons.

1. One of the most important concerns is the quesƟon of who will run/manage the campground. We absolutely believe that the City must remain in charge, either by a manager who is a city employee, or a very specific contract that gives the City full control over operaƟons. That way the public will maintain the ability to have input in case there are problems. In no way should this be taken over by a private enterprise.

This needs to be a condiƟon of the Use Permit.

2. As we all know, the Pier Enterprise Fund has been a drain on City resources for many years. The promise, when it was rebuilt in the 1980s, was that it would not become a financial drain on the City. And yet, it eventually did become a big one. The City needs to assure that the campground will not also become a financial drain. This should be a condiƟon of the UP. And if it becomes a problem the City needs to be able to shut it down without restricƟons or financial problems. If this is not possible, then you should not even do it.

3. Free, public pedestrian access through the property and along the trail to the cove park must be maintained. That is the only available access to the park when the creek is high. This needs to be a condiƟon in the CDP and UP, and a condiƟon in any management contract.

4. We are willing to give up the current seasonal use of the property as a dog park, and other changes to the cove that this will cause, but ONLY if the City will financially benefit in some way. Since your Planner has stated that the City cannot put campground profits into the General Fund, we suggest that it be combined with the Pier Enterprise Fund.

This will offset at least some of the annual loss the City incurs.

5. This proposal includes moving the community recycling staƟon to some unknown locaƟon. We agree that the current locaƟon adjacent to an ESHA is bad. However, the community recycling is a well-used and important service. There needs to be a condiƟon in either the CDP or UP that the staƟon will not be removed unƟl a new locaƟon has been set up and is operaƟonal.

6. There will need to be ongoing vegetaƟon management along the campground borders, the trail and the park. We know that in the past the City had an MOU with U.S.

Fish & Wildlife Service regarding Point Arena Mountain Beavers (PAMB), which defined when vegetaƟon management could occur. That needs to be included as a condiƟon of the CDP and UP and any management contract.

7. We believe that completely prohibiƟng dogs in the campground and on the trail to the cove park is going too far. We understand and agree with concerns about PAMBs. The recommendaƟon by USFWS is that pets be leashed. We agree. And certainly, signage will help. The permit documentaƟon is silent/ambiguous about dogs at both the cove park and cove parking area. That needs to be addresses as well. Clear signage is a must.

Please modify the CDP to remove the prohibiƟon and to allow dogs on leash.

8. We are concerned about increased trash along the trail and at the cove park. This has the potenƟal to significantly impact Point Arena Creek. The servicing of trash/recycling cans and trash clean-up needs to occur on a more regular and adequate basis. The included miƟgaƟon of servicing cans twice weekly needs to be upgraded to “…or when full”.

9. As stated in Point Arena’s LCP, the creek valley has an ongoing problem with air quality due to wood stove smoke. Adding camping fires will increase this problem. This impact to residences in the valley, all of which are down-wind from the campground, has not been addressed. It is becoming more common, all around the country, to have propane fire rings. They are readily available and increasingly popular with campers. Some campgrounds have a central fire ring, others rent individual rings. The CDP and UP should be changed to allow only propane fire rings in the campground, and prohibit wood fires.

10. We would like the City to formalize the use of the dog park during off-season when the campground is closed. That could be added to the CDP/UP discussion of boat storage. (Boat storage will also only occur when the campground is closed).

11. The locaƟon of Point Arena Creek through the property is not accurately or adequately shown on any of the maps or plans. (In fact, some of the environmental documents show the creek on the top of the south bluff, which is silly.) The exisƟng documentaƟon makes it impossible to tell, for instance how far the campsites are from the creek. There are potenƟal impacts to the creek from close proximity camping, such as motor oil and other chemicals. The creek locaƟon should be accurately depicted in the documentaƟon.

12. Point Arena’s LCP (Zoning Sec 5.22) requires all new development to be an absolute minimum of 50 feet from the outward edge of riparian vegetaƟon. Maps and plans of the project are inadequate to determine this. Scale is not show, nor is the Riparian Buffer Zone. Some maps conflict with others. The asserƟon that campsites are exempt from this requirement is not supported. The campsites should be located away from the creek and closer to the rock wall.

13. Property lines of the subject parcels are not shown on any of the documentaƟon, as required by the City’s own CDP permit forms. Property lines need to be accurately shown, to scale.

14. Wetlands are not adequately delineated on any of the maps or diagrams. Coastal Commission and our own LCP define a wetland as “land covered periodically or permanently with shallow water”. The creek margins, riparian area and much of the project site falls within this definiƟon.

One last suggesƟon – start slow with a phased development. Get the campground running with just the tent/van sites. Perhaps allow vans where the Ɵny homes will go.

AŌer a year and everything is running well, consider adding the Ɵny homes.

Thank-you for your consideraƟon.
