Impact analysis
Any new security patrol, lighting, or camera expansion would cost money the Authority hasn't budgeted yet.
Fishermen, tenants, and pier workers would get a safer workplace and protected vehicles and vessels.
Tenants report property break-ins and unsafe conditions; unaddressed, the activity could deter use of the pier.
