Marina priorities: targeted dredging, anodes pilot in Warrenton, and multiyear dock projects
Summary
Marina staff told commissioners the marina is focusing on dock condition and planned dredging (last dredge ~6 years ago), will pilot sacrificial anodes on Warrenton commercial docks, and is pursuing grant and urban-renewal funding for larger dock and edock expansion projects.
Marina presenter (Jessica) said the marina CIP emphasizes dock repairs and dredging; the last full dredge was about six years ago and current work is mainly maintenance and cleanup. Staff described a pilot anode (zinc) program to place sacrificial anodes on commercial dock piles starting in Warrenton to assess sizing and quantity before recommending broader Hammond installations.
Larger marina projects discussed include a Hammond ramp RFP now live and a proposed E-dock expansion (an aspirational $8 million project covering feasibility, permitting, design and construction) that staff said is grant-dependent and could be partially supported by a future urban-renewal program. Commissioners asked about timing, permitting, and local economic benefits for fisheries and processing capacity.
