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...

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!

you obviously don't live here, otherwise you'd think they're crazy to want to build that much housing there. Nobody wants it! The traffic is ridiculous as it is. And there's only one way in one way out.... Read more...

I would not say nobody.....it is such a beautiful area and it looks like complete poop right now. You are right about traffic....but I defiantly dont want to look at what I am looking right now a delapitated... Read more...

I do live here and am tired of a few people out of the many keep hampering a move forward. You don’t know or maybe you don’t understand how harbor development works. Traffic studies have been done more... Read more...

We have PLENTY of eateries and bars and places to drink wine. And WAY too much housing.. We don't have enough things for kids to do... like a skatepark, arcades... something like golf n stuff. NO more... Read more...

Kids can play at the beach. Ours did. Property needs to generate revenue. No revenue in skateparks.

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.

Hi Jeff, Thank you for the idea regarding historical photos of the harbor--that's a great idea. Are you familiar with where historical photos can be located?

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

Orlean, Thank you for the comment and points well taken. I believe our park design accomplishes both Leon's and your suggestions as it includes a nautical themed climbing structure for children as well... Read more...

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...

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

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...

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.
