The City has done away with the old business license tax and now has a low-cost Business Certificate program. The cost is $25 plus a $4 state fee. The penalty for those who do not renew their certificates within 30 days of the due date is $50 and escalates thereafter. Don’t pay the penalty. Get your Business Certificate now. Don’t wait. See the flier below for more information.
- Golf Course Renovations: The Coronado Golf Course Clubhouse renovation has begun. Fencing was installed around the construction areas and demolition commenced this week. A snack bar has been installed on the Pro Shop side of the outdoor patio for the convenience of Golf patrons. Work is progressing smoothly. The grand opening of Feast and Fareway is slated for April of 2019.
- Design Review Commission On Wednesday, January 9, the Design Review Commission unanimously approved the design of the Hotel del Coronado South Beach Guestrooms and Conference centers. The three-story structure would include 142 guestrooms and approximately 18,000 square feet of conference center space above a 280-space underground parking garage. The project follows the previously approved Hotel del Coronado Master Plan. It is anticipated that construction on this portion of the property would begin by the end of this year and take approximately 24 months to complete.
Transbay Pump Station Rehabilitation: Onsite work began this week on the Transbay Pump Station Rehabilitation project with the contractor installing a temporary construction fence around the site at the Coronado Ferry Landing and the laydown area along the 100 block of A Avenue. The project includes the replacement of existing pump station components, pipes within and around the station, and relining of the storage area used to hold sewage before it is pumped across San Diego Bay.
- Broadcast Equipment Upgrade: The City has completed an upgrade of the City Council Chamber cameras and broadcast room equipment, which were about 15 years old. The City converted to high-definition broadcast equipment and improved audio and control systems. For more details on the equipment upgrade, and the rest of the City Manager’s Weekly Update, visit the city’s website.
