The Avalon Planning Commission approved a transient rental license and coastal development permit for a detached accessory building at 123 Marilla Avenue, adopting Resolution PC26-06 and finding the proposal exempt from CEQA under the Class 1 exemption.

Staff described the accessory building as approximately 336 square feet without kitchen facilities; the unit is treated as part of the primary residence (not an ADU) and the maximum occupancy would be four people. The applicants, Michael and Michelle Upton, told the commission they would be owner‑operators and therefore responsible for managing the rental; staff confirmed owner‑operators must obtain the short‑term rental business license.

A commissioner moved and the commission approved the staff recommendation and adopted Resolution PC26-06. Staff recorded no pre‑hearing public comments opposing the application.
