Rendering of proposed project

Campground operator Campland on the Bay has formed a public-private partnership with the City of San Diego to clean up and improve the De Anza area of the Northeast Mission Bay. Campland's “short-term clean up and improvement project” includes removing asbestos-infested mobile homes and repairing visitor amenities.

“We developed the partnership to help the city address a number of serious challenges,” Jacob Gelfand, VP of Operations at Campland on the Bay. “First. the existing operator is planning to terminate its current contract with the city, leaving no one to operate the property during the busiest time of the year. The second major challenge is that there are 160 mobile homes that have been abandoned at the De Anza site. They have asbestos and other problems that are creating an environmental and public safety hazard.”
