Seaside Lagoon Rehabilitation Project
Description
The Commission was scheduled to discuss the Seaside Lagoon Rehabilitation Project and consider recommending a CEQA exemption declaration and design review permit to the City Council. The site sits in the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space zone within the Coastal Zone.
Impact summary
Construction is targeted for completion before the LA 2028 Olympics; the city avoids ongoing water-quality fines but the lagoon will be freshwater and shallower, which some residents oppose.
