Michael Zucchet will serve as vice-president and GilAnthony Ungab will be secretary. They were each elected by the Port\u2019s board and will serve a one-year term.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Moore\u2019s slogan as chair is \u201cDelivering Coastal Access Today,\u201d which she said means creating well-planned development projects, such as public parks and art installations, that make the waterfront a place for everyone in San Diego to enjoy and find opportunity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cGrowing up in Chula Vista, I knew people who never went to the beach or the bay. It\u2019s hard to believe we lived within a couple\u00a0of\u00a0miles from the waterfront and yet it seemed so far away. Our bayfront was for steel and concrete, not for people. All the \u2018good stuff\u2019 like\u00a0sandy beaches and waterfront shops and restaurants were in\u00a0San\u00a0Diego\u00a0or Coronado,\u201d said Moore in a news release.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Part of her initiatives includes improving public parks in Chula Vista and National City, the Chula Vista Bayfront Project and environmental protection plans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The Port has five member cities: Chula Vista, Coronado, Imperial Beach, National City, and San Diego. It oversees San Diego\u2019s cruise ship terminals, business and restaurant leases on the bay, and attractions such as museums and bay tours.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Copyright 2026 Nexstar Media, Inc.
