Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
In 1991 the Board adopted Division II of Title 20 of Mendocino County Code through Ordinance No. 3785. Included in Division II is Section 20.536.055 which allows Permits for Approval of Emergency Work. In cases of a verified emergency, temporary emergency authorization to proceed with remedial measures may be given by the Director or his or her designee until such time as a Coastal Development Permit application is filed. The Director shall report in writing to the Board of Supervisors at each meeting the emergency permits applied for or issued since the last report, with a description of the nature of the emergency and the work involved. The report of the Director shall be informational only. The decision to issue an emergency permit is solely at the discretion of the Director. Notice of emergency permits shall be provided by phone or letter to the California Coastal Commission within three (3) days, following issuance of the emergency permit.
Summary of Request:
In early March 2023, approximately twenty-two (22) feet of the ocean bluff collapsed extending to the foundation of the existing single-family residence. On July 14, 2023, the current landowners submitted an emergency request application for the relocation of the existing single-family residence to Planning and Building Services. The application requests to relocate or re-construct the single-family residence to a new foundation within a stable building site on the subject parcel further away from the existing failed bluff edge, no less than sixty-six (66) feet east of the bluff top edge. Because of the structure’s proximity to the blufftop, Planning Staff has determined the work is considered development and requires the issuance of a Coastal Development Permit
The emergency permit was issued on August 2, 2023 and becomes null and void at the end of sixty (60) days. Prior to expiration of this Emergency Permit, the applicant shall submit a standard Coastal Development Permit application for the work authorized by the permit
