In 2008, PEDC initiated a community-wide discussion on the need for improving marine services, specifically looking at interest in development of a vessel haul out and boat work yard. To date, the City Council has approved PEDC’s conceptual plan, and we are working to complete public scoping and continue with the design process.
The completed study should be available in early 2009.
Upcoming Meetings
The PEDC is sponsoring two public meetings regarding the Scow Bay Development project. These meetings will be held in conjunction with representatives of the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Harbor Advisory Board. We welcome your participation.
