Maritime Task Force Full Task Force Gathering Zoom
The meeting focused on achieving consensus within the sustainability group regarding maritime district structures, triggers for non-maritime use increases, support for contributing uses (restaurants and venues), and funding for the Annapolis maritime industry. Key points of agreement included maintaining the maritime district structure and specific support percentages for contributing uses. Areas requiring further discussion included the specific percentage cap for maximum non-maritime land use, which ranged between 45% and 55%. The group also discussed shared parking, with concerns raised about ensuring usage incentives, and generally reached a consensus that restaurants in the WME zone should be handled via the existing special exception process rather than through broad consensus. Next steps involve co-chairs narrowing down the range for incentives and revisiting shared parking.
