Public Hearing: Alternate Pier Designs Project Manager Chris Birkland, and Eric Anderson of Makers, were present at this meeting with the three preferred Municipal Pier designs which were chosen by the Council during the May 23, 1978 special meeting; design No. 3, design No. 4 and a combination of design No. 5 and 6. The purpose of this second public hearing is to obtain further input from the public and staff on proposed features of the pier, and selection of a final design by the Council. Mr. Anderson began his presentation with a short slide review of the past and present design schemes and then requested questions and comments from the audience and staff. Subjects discussed included recreation facilities on the pier for the crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Campbell, what type of plant material will best be suited for the pier, a Customs check-in facility located on the pier, parking, restroom and shower facilities, concrete versus wood piers, the length and type of pilings to be used, maintenance costs and how they would differ from design to design, safety features, utilities that will be available, the possibility of constructing shops on the pier in the future, the cost of the tower in scheme 5/6, and the DNR's guidelines for develop- ment of the waterfront. Following Mr. Anderson's presentation, Councilman Hordyk moved the Council select the basic combination design of 5/6. The motion was seconded by Councilman Buck and carried unanimously.
