Sunrise Shores boundary dispute splits Riviera and Lower Lake LAPAC input
Summary
LAPAC members debated whether the small Sunrise Shores subdivision should be moved entirely into the Riviera planning area or remain split with Lower Lake; arguments cited shared water‑district connections, mailing addresses, and inclusion in a Fire Safe Council.
Members discussed a recurring boundary question over Sunrise Shores, a small subdivision described as split roughly half‑and‑half between the Riviera planning area and Lower Lake. Lower Lake representatives told the group Sunrise Shores should be fully in Lower Lake because of a shared water district and mailing address; Riviera members and some LAPAC participants countered that Fire Safe Council membership and lake‑front characteristics argue for inclusion in the Riviera area.
No final boundary decision was made at the meeting. Staff recorded the competing LAPAC recommendations and said that where LAPACs are in opposition, the matter may be forwarded to the board for resolution. "The people that live in the area should decide," one member said; staff noted they would document both positions and, if necessary, hand the question to the board for a final decision.
