What other questions or suggestions do you have about this project?

I think this is exactly what the area needs. A needed makeover with value added to the community.

It is important that the ACTUAL ISSUES related to the project receive public comment and reception. That is why this site is excellent. Believe it or not I was attracted to this issue as a former Flushing,... Read more...

This renovation is wonderful and so needed! While enhancing the harbor, it will be enjoyable for so many! Can’t wait for it to happen!

What is happening now in 2020 since the city council denied the project? Has anything changed? We would love to see this project move forward, it would be wonderful!

Fisherman’s Wharf will include 36,000 SQ FT of new dining and retail options. What kinds of restaurants and retail would you be most excited to see?

Bar/Gastro Pub

Drake, Thanks for the comment. A wine bar is possible. One of our partners is involved in the Ram's Gate Winery and we are working on a tasting room concept as well.

How can we create a more family and kid-friendly space for the Oxnard community at Fisherman's Wharf?

Put in a sidewalk/bike path for the entire length of Victoria from Channel Islands Blvd to the Coast Guard Station.

Restoration of the lighthouse and the urchin dock will happen as part of this project. How else can we honor the history and character of the site?

Plaques along the promenades with historical photos of the harbor dredging, etc.

Definitely have small picnic areas, but I'd lean more towards a ocean-themed playground.

Sadly, all of these kiddie amenities are located a full city block from the nearest parking spot (if a parking spot is even available in the small lot) The developer plans to eliminate the parking spots... Read more...

Bike rentals, jet ski rentals, small boat dining cruise, volleyball sand pit, mini indoor aquarium with educational component.

I'm in favor of restoring the lighthouse and urchin dock. It could be complemented with weekend art shows or, depending on the overall design of the wharf, the lighthouse and urchin dock could also be... Read more...

outdoor restaurants so needed in the area serving dinner and drinks. Water taxi would be nice. guest boat docks as well Also walking path along the waterside

Excellent ideas, Rosalyn! One of the things the wharf has so lacked in the past is outdoor restaurants. Ease of access will be key to the wharf's future success, translating to the success of its restaurants,... Read more...

ice cream shop and bakery

A small water park. Nothing big. Maybe water that shoots out from the ground and from sea animals. I’ve seen it in many places before. Kids love it in the summertime.

Jason, Thanks for the comment. Small watercraft rentals is a very popular response for the kiosk. We are currently working with a rental company to incorporate watercraft rentals.
