Design Review Board approves pool at 3044 Nestall Road and small addition at 7 Camel Point Drive
Summary
On Oct. 23 the Laguna Beach Design Review Board approved a residential pool at 3044 Nestall Road (Design Review 25‑1919) and a 294‑sq‑ft street‑level addition at 7 Camel Point Drive (Design Review 25‑1551 / CDP 25‑1552) on expedited items. Both decisions were unanimous (4–0).
The Laguna Beach Design Review Board on Oct. 23 approved two expedited residential items in unanimous votes.
3044 Nestall Road — Design Review 25‑1919: Staff described a modest in‑ground pool (approx. 1,200 gallons), spa (700 gallons) and related equipment. No public opposition was raised at the hearing. The board found the project compatible with neighborhood character and adopted Resolution 25‑1919 in a 4–0 roll call.
7 Camel Point Drive — Design Review 25‑1551 & CDP 25‑1552: Staff presented a 294‑sq‑ft street‑level addition on a bluff‑top lot. One neighbor expressed a mild concern regarding loss of light into an interior area, but staff noted the addition does not raise ridge heights or block ocean views. The board adopted the recommended resolution and found the project categorically exempt under CEQA, 4–0.
Votes: Both motions passed on roll calls recorded as Bauta — yes; Weil — yes; Gannon — yes; Gibbs — yes.
What this means: Both projects will proceed to the normal permit‑issuance steps and are subject to the standard appeals process.
