A. It shall be the duty of the commission to act in an advisory capacity to the mayor and the city council on problems and development of the port and harbor facilities. Consideration may include the physical facilities, possible future development and recommendations on land use within the port and harbor areas, and recommendations on fee increases and financial operations.
B. The daily operation and maintenance of the port and harbor are the direct responsibility of the harbormaster, under the direction of the mayor. Any recommendation the commission or a commission member may have regarding the operation and maintenance of the facilities is to be directed to the mayor, not a port or harbor employee. The mayor will study the recommendation and refer it to the council, or the recommendations of the commission concerning policy issues shall be sent to the council upon the request of the commission.
C. The commission shall consider any specific proposal, problem or project as directed by the city council and any report or recommendations thereon shall be made directly to the council, unless otherwise directed by the council.
D. The city council may at a future date expand or withdraw duties and responsibilities of the commission.
