Why This Vote Matters

The council approved extending a development agreement for the Point Molate site through April 2010 in a 4-1 vote, with McLaughlin opposed and two members abstaining. Under the extension, Upstream Point Molate LLC will pay the city $90,000 per month starting January 15th to continue planning development of the former naval shipyard. The split vote and abstentions suggest some uncertainty about the project's direction. This is a routine contract extension that keeps the development process moving while generating monthly revenue for the city.
