Project Summary
A request for a coastal development permit to construct a new bulkhead within
private property along the U.S. Bulkhead line at 925 Via Lido Soud, where there is

property. The proposed bulkhead coping would reach 8.75 feet NAVD88 with a stem
wall up to 13.5 feet NAVD88 to match the height of adjacent bulkheads on either
side. The bulkhead construction would require additional ancillary structures such as
deadmen and tiebacks. All work will be performed from the landside of the U .S.
Bulkhead Line. The project also includes a staff approval for a grade determination

determination would allow the subject property to construct improvements at a height
consistent with the two adjacent properties.
