Conforms to all applicable sections of the certified Local Coastal Program. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The subject property is currently developed with a single-family home on an existing lot designated for residential development by the Local Coastal Program. The project applicant requests to demolish the existing single-family residence. Subsequent construction of a new single-family residence will require a separate Coastal Development Permit at a later date. 2. The property is located in an area known for the potential of seismic activity and liquefaction. All projects are required to comply with the California Building Code and Building Division standards and policies. 3. The property is located within 100 feet of coastal waters. The project design addresses water quality with a construction erosion control plan and a post construction drainage system that includes drainage and percolation features designed to retain dry weather and minor rain event run-off on-site. Any water not retained on-site is directed to the City's storm drain system. 4. The property is not located near designated Public View Points or Coastal View Roads and will not impact public coastal views. Finding: B. Conforms with the public access and public recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act if the project is located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline of any body of water located within the coastal zone. Fact in Support of Finding: 1. The project site is located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline and demolition of the existing residence will not affect public recreation or access. Developed in 1926, Harbor Island is a 35-lot single-family community on a private island located between Linda Isle and Collins Island. A gated bridge connects Harbor Island to the mainland at the end of Harbor Island Road. The shoreline consists mainly of bulkheads. The State, through the adoption of Chapter 715, Statutes of 1984, found that tidelands surrounding Harbor Island are generally inaccessible to the public and not suitable for public trust uses. 01-03-17 Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2017-026 Page 3 of 5 SECTION 4.
