PUBLIC HEARING - ADOPTING DRAFT COASTAL LAND USE PLAN
Mayor Vanderstaay declared the public hearing open to consider adoption
of the Land Use Component to the City'S Local Coastal Plan. Principal
Planner, Mr. Antos, presented the staff report, explaining that each
city or county in the coastal zone is required to adopt a Local Coastal
Plan pursuant to the Coastal Act of 1976 and upon approval and
2-28-83
certification by the State Coastal Commission the Local Coastal Plan
will become a Specific Plan to the city's General Plan. Mr. Antos
stated that the Land Use Component addresses the area of Seal Beach
from the ocean to Westminster Avenue and proposes no land use changes
from existing zoning, that development of the Department of Water
and Power site and the Hellman land have been addressed pursuant to
the adopted Specific Plans for those sites, and noted that the only
significant changes in the Plan is to allow "A" row decks in Surf-
side Colony not now permitted by the Coastal Commission and to provide
temporary access through the Colony to the public beach at Phillips
Street until access can be obtained through the six acre military
site. Mr. Antos stated that a minor amendment had been made to the
Resolution showing the Plan as an attachment thereto as Exhibit "A",
that revised pages 2, 35 and 36 have been provided, as well as a
revised map of the Department of Water and Power site. Mr. Antos
stated for the record that all items covered in the Local Coastal
Plan have been addressed environmentally in other documents such
as the city's General Plan, all Specific Plans and the zoning
ordinance. Councilmember Risner moved that the last sentence of
paragraph three, Section 2.2.1.3, page nine, be amended to read
"From the pier to First Street, the dedicated right-of-way provides
lateral access from the street stubs." Council member Grgas seconded
the motion.
