Unfortunately, the developer, Mr. Ghandour, has requested a postponement, which is his privilege. So the final Coastal Commission hearing won't be held until some time in the future and most likely not in the area. The issues haven't changed. We still lose the view of the ocean from Highway 1, and the view of the beach from the ocean. The source of water for the project has not been guaranteed.
Public access is restricted.
The traffic impacts are yet to be solved. Even Cal Trans had requested that a complete study for the Highway 1 corridor through the Peninsula be done before any more development is approved. The conclusion is that this is an inappropriate development for this site between two park parcels and squeezed between the highway and the sea. Stay alert for notice when this project will be back before the Coastal Commission. This MOU follows more than ten years of lawsuits, Coastal Commission appeals, hearings, meetings, comments on EIRs and endless phone calls.
