Presenter: Scott Ferris, Parks and Waterfront Director, City of Berkeley.

Please join us in person for a BDA twofer:  A discussion of the Berkeley waterfront, marina status, the proposed ferry terminal at the old pier and the new opportunity to turn the racetrack into an extension of the current waterfront park. Scott Ferris will make this presentation at 12:30pm and take questions afterwards.

Preceding this discussion, starting at 12:00pm, BDA officers will introduce the new Steering Committee and initiate a member discussion for about 25 minutes on members’ thoughts on direction, organization priorities and any other member considerations.  We will tentatively organize this discussion as follows:

• BDA History and Mission

• Major Activities

• Refocus in New Project Approval Era

• ByLaw Updates

• Membership

Location: AIA East Bay Conference Room, Brower Center, 2150 Allston Way #310, Berkeley, CA 94709.
