Mr. Jack Maher, Waterfront Development Manager, spoke of the
need to apply for the Submarine, even if the City chooses at
a later date to make application for a more historical
vessel. At present it is the only ship available for
tourism to replace the loss of the U.S.S.Missouri as a local
attraction. He further outlined the Submarine's role in the
Waterfront development effort and that it is so designed as
to be utilized for a breakwater for the proposed waterfront
marine. The Waterfront Development staff encourage Council
to adopt the Resolution.
Mr. Bert Gegner, expressed concerns that the City should
wait for a ship of destroyer or surface class before making
a commitment to the Navy. Further he felt the City would
not be able to maintain an older vessel and that there were
nuclear class ships available for the asking. Mr. Maher
responded that this application would be a drawing card for
a more sophisticated ship. He said it is difficult to work
with ships not well-preserved and that the City would not
have immediate possession of any ship applied for because it
takes nearly a year to be appropriated by the Federal
Government because of the need for Congressional approval.
