The Marinship Blue Economy Innovation District Ballot Measure

 

Sausalito Working Waterfront Coalition on behalf of our members and group of interested partners has submitted a proposed ballot measure to the city council.

​

The Ballot Measure is intended to foster and grow a large portion of the Marinship into a district that can attract new businesses focused on emerging  solutions for ocean health, climate tech, solar energy, vessel electrification and other innovation technologies.  

​

Current maritime and industrial spaces will not be affected.  Nor will spaces occupied by artists or craftspeople be affected.  Even non-conforming uses that currently exist will be permitted and allowed to remain.

 

Eighteen acres of the northern Marinship, some of which was designated by the city for mixed-use residential are not affected by this initiative.

​

This balllot measure simply locks some 2021 General Plan programs and policies that addressed the Marinship.  That General Plan was approved 5-0 by CIty CouncilIt also requires future development and re-development to be limited to maritime, fine art, industrial and youth/aprenticeship programs and requires any future change to go to the voters.
