Coastal resources: coastal development permits: appeals: report.

The California Coastal Act of 1976, among other things, requires anyone wishing to perform or undertake any development in the coastal zone, in addition to obtaining any other permit required by law from any local government or from any state, regional, or local agency, to obtain a coastal development permit from the California Coastal Commission or a local government, as provided. The act authorizes an appeal to the commission for any action taken by a local government on coastal development permit applications, as provided. The act requires the commission to hear the appeal and establishes specified appeal procedures, as provided. This bill would require the commission, on or before December 31, 2025, to provide a report to the Legislature that provides information regarding appeals of local government coastal development permits to the commission, including, among other things, the percentage of local government coastal development permit actions that were appealed to the commission.
