Document Description
The proposed project consists of the development of the Boating Instruction and Safety Center (BISC) located in and owned by the County of Ventura. The 0.84-acre project site would consist of approximately 26,000 SF of exterior space and approximately 24,000 SF of dock space, which includes a full ADA access ramp from the main building to the docking area. In addition, the center would consist of a two-story, 18,887-SF building and a one-story, 1,000-SF maintenance/storage building. The proposed center would be designed to provide training in sailing, rowing, kayaking, and canoeing for athletes, local public schools, California State University, Channel Islands (CSUCI), and the general public on a fee basis. In addition, the County would operate the center in partnership with CSUCI to provide programs in marine biology, ecology and oceanography. A multi-purpose "Teaching/Gathering Facility" is proposed on the second level of the main building center. The proposed second floor gathering area, which includes the outside deck areas, consists of approximately 3,816 SF of indoor floor area and 2,645 SF outdoor deck area for a total of 6,461 SF. The walls of the four multi-purpose rooms can be folded and converted into one large gathering area to accommodate public and private events or meetings, conferences, assemblies, gatherings, banquets, fundraisers, and various events which the space would allow.
