Staff Hearing Officer Tess Harris approved a coastal development permit for an attached 408-square-foot accessory dwelling unit at 215 Bath Street, finding the project exempt from CEQA under section 15303 and consistent with the local coastal program.
Tess Harris, Staff Hearing Officer, approved a coastal development permit for an attached accessory dwelling unit at 215 Bath Street during the April 22 staff hearing officer meeting. Harris read the project into the record and said the ADU measures 408 square feet, meets the city's ADU standards and requires no additional parking.
Harris said the site lies in the city's nonappealable coastal-jurisdiction area and that staff determined the project is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15303 for new construction or conversion of small structures. "It is consistent with the city's local coastal program and the land use plan," Harris said when announcing the findings.
Harris made the coastal development permit findings in the staff report and announced approval; per the hearing record she stated the decision is final for this jurisdiction. The record shows staff also confirmed the project complies with zoning setbacks and the city's accessory dwelling unit ordinance.
The decision was announced in the hearing; no public comments or written correspondence on the ADU were received for this item. The file will proceed under the conditions and findings listed in the staff report.
