Coyote Point Recreation Area Shoreline and Promenade Improvement Project

Coyote Point Recreation Area Shoreline and Promenade Improvement Project

NOTE: Review Per Lead A Draft Master Plan for Coyote Point was prepared in 2002 and not completed. An updated and Final Master Plan (Amphion 2008) was approved by San Mateo County on Feb. 26, 2008. The purpose of the revised Master Plan was to make improvements to landscape and infrastructure, update existing recreation facilities to improve safety and disability access, enhance natural resources, and provide educational opportunities for visitors regarding biotic and cultural resources. Additional special studies were recommended by the Master Plan including the proposed stabilization of the beach shoreline along the San Francisco Bay, which is subject to severe erosion. In April 2008, a Conceptual Design Report (PWA 2008) was prepared for the County Parks and Recreation Department which outlined several design alternatives to stabilize the beach shoreline. The County selected Conceptual Alternative 5 as the Preferred Alternative and directed the preparation of a Preliminary Design Repot to implement this alternative (PWA 2009). The Preferred Alternative is presented in this Initial Study as the proposed design for the Shoreline and Promenade Improvement Project. The purpose of the proposed Project is to develop a sustainable solution to the coastal erosion problem along the San Francisco Bay at the park shoreline while facilitating good public access to the beach and water for a variety of users, particularly swimmers and windsurfers.
