Facility Planning Option 4

Facility Planning Option 4  in PDF (printable)

Option # 4 – Construct a new Harbor area Special Events Venue, Substantial Recreational Water Park with Children’s Pool, and Boat Ramp

Under this option an 8,500 square foot recreation pool with two waterslides, zero depth entry and a wet play structure; and a 4,000 square foot children’s pool with “splashpad” pole-style wet play elements would be constructed in the facility (see attachment D.)  The facility would also include a bathhouse, a food concession building, storage space for pool equipment and chemicals, a covered raised stage, approximately 48,000 square feet of special events area, landscaping, fencing and site lighting. 

The preliminary capital cost estimate for the Special Events Venue and Water Park is $10.5 million dollars.  The site plan also includes a semi-subterranean 300 space parking structure that is estimated to cost $2.6 million dollars.  It should be noted that the feasibility of this parking structure would have to be confirmed thorough structural and geotechnical testing.  Additionally the site plan includes a two-lane boat launch ramp with 28 trailer parking spaces at a capital cost that is TBD.  The annual operating expenditure estimate for this option is $1,400,000 and the revenue estimate is $1,400,000.  The early projection for ongoing Harbor Tidelands Fund subsidy with this option is $0 per year.

Pros:

  • 100% operating cost recovery
  • Installation of ample contemporary water play elements
  • Possibility of year round water activity
  • A parking structure controlled by the City could create new revenue
  • No NPDES permit requirements
  • More than adequate special event space

Cons:

  • Parking structure could be problematic depending on geotechnical results
  • Loss of the casual/comfortable feel of the existing Seaside Lagoon facility
