Public Notice          Project Plans

The applicant proposes to construct a 68-lot subdivision with homesites, two marinas (Community Marina A and Community Marina B), and finger piers for boat slips.  The proposed subdivision road for the subdivision would be approximately 24-foot-wide with all utilities installed in upland areas.

Community Marina A (220-foot-long by 95-foot-wide) would be dry excavated to accommodate 26 small boat slips with 13 finger piers to a fixed accessed deck.  Community Marina A would be created by excavating approximately 9,000 cubic yards of uplands and would be approximately mean lower low water (MLLW) -5 feet.  The excavated material will be spread into uplands within the review area.  Proposed seawalls would be connected to the existing ones.  The northern seawall would be approximately 675 linear feet.  The fixed pier system would be approximately 8-foot-wide, and the finger piers would be approximately 3-foot-wide.  The finger piers would be supported by 66, 10-inch pilings and would create 26 boat slips.  Boat lifts would be constructed and supported by 78, 8-inch pilings (144 pilings total).

Approximately 100 cubic yards of material would be dredged from the opening of the proposed Community Marina A to connect it to the channel to Aransas Bay.  The dredged material would be placed on-site on lots 50-52.

Community Marina B would be located at the existing boat ramp and would include a fixed pier system with 18 boat slips with 10 finger piers.  The fixed pier system would be approximately 8-foot-wide, and the finger piers would be approximately 3-foot-wide.  The finger piers would be supported by 50, 10-inch pilings and would create 26 boat slips.  Boat lifts would be constructed and supported by 54, 8-inch pilings (104 pilings total).
