launch

Zero depth launch = a beach type launch...they are considering blowing out the "lagoon" area and using it as a sand beach kayak SUP launch.
Personally I'd rather not have to drag my Pro Angler through the sand...

"drive our vehicles right up to the launch" = a boat ramp...
another part of their considerations on the amenities, is a Public Boat Launch Ramp...

"the current location is not bad, but in the afternoons it becomes a chore to squeeze down the road with all of the pedestrians and other paddlers and their vehicles parked along the edges of the narrow access road. Additionally the proposed new location may provide access to better facilities ,actual bathrooms at the park, as opposed to the porto-potty that is always disgusting at the current launch."
I guess you didn't really read the initial post...
"Redondo Beach officials began soliciting this week ideas to improve King Harbor, marking the first steps toward a renewed waterfront project..."
“The City of Redondo Beach is embarking on a comprehensive
process to establish a Public Amenities Plan for King Harbor.
Those amenities will include:
Public Boat Launch Ramp
Seaside Lagoon Replacement
Potential New Sportfishing Pier
Dinghy Dock for Moorings Field
Hand Launching/Zero Depth Entry
Mole B: Outriggers & Sailboat Storage
