deferred maintenance issues of the float system; and
WHEREAS, through cooperative efforts and thorough research and study by the State, City and
Harbor Customers, a plan to effectively use the money was developed, studied and endorsed by a
Project Advisory Team; and
WHEREAS, this plan calls for replacing and upgrading existing float systems in the north harbor
with a state of the industry concrete float system with more buoyancy, wider main floats, new and
stronger piling, upgraded utility system designed for floats in utility trays, wider slips to
accommodate changing boat designs and more slips to address wait list and damages associated with
rafting issues; and

to be applied to systematically renewing the facilities in the southern part of the harbor and have a
significant positive impact on the facilities; and
WHEREAS, a Project Advisory Team composed of representatives and Professional Engineers
from the City, State, Port and Commerce Advisory Board and boat owners has reviewed and
recommended this project;
