possibilities of financing the development of an RV park, 600-s1ip marina -and support
facilities on the City's_tidelands in the vicinity of the J Street marina. After con"

DISCUSSION:
The idea of J Street marina development was brought to the Port District's attention
by the City many years ago when the District was formed. Since that time, considerable
funds have been expended in order to accommodate public access and enjoyment of the
area. To date, there are no berthing facilities, supply outlets, or visitor facilities.
The Wilson Group of Chula Vista, for the past three years, has been involved in an
attempt to remedy this situation and to develop a major portion of the site into a
200+space RV park and 600-s1ip marina. In November 1980, architectural renderings of
the proposal were presented. In December, consideration of financing this proj~ct
through the sale of tax exempt lease revenue certificates in an amount close to
$10 million was requested.
It is now proposed that the City sponsor the issue and thus, utilize its credit to
finance the development. Because of the magnitude of this endeavor, I have attempted
to provide safeguards that would protect the City in the case of a default. With
the advice and assistance of consultants, I feel that the proposed issuance will pro-
'vire a most desirable financial package to the developers, and more important, to
the City and the general public.
Present this evening to discuss the technical aspects of the proposal are:
Mr. Fred Waldeck - Municipal Funding CorpolJation of America
Mr. Kenneth Ough - Merrill Lynch White Weld, Capital Markets Group
Mr. Cha rl es -Adams - Jones Hall Hi 11 & Wh ite
