Califomia Coastal Commission Holds Roundtable Discussion with Coastal Cities and Counties Representatives from coastal cities and counties will have a formal roundtable discussion with Coastal Commissioners as part of a special workshop on the Local Coastal Program (LCP) process, on Wednesday, Aug. 12 at the Hyatt Regency Embarcadero in San Francisco from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m., The workshop is the result of the Coastal Cities Issues Group efforts to improve communications with the Coastal Commission and make the LCP process more consistent. Implementation of the California Coastal Act depends on collaboration between local governments and the Commission. Local coastal governments hope to come out of the workshop with a set of ideas that will guide future Commission.decisions resulting in the LCP process becoming more predictable and efficient for all parties. Both local governments and the Coastal Commission will continue to face difficult budgets in the future. Making the LCP process more predictable and efficient will encourage jurisdictions to prepare and certify an LCP, if they haven't already. Thus, more local governments will be able to issue individual local permits, relieving the commission of the costly burden. In this way, both the commission and local coastal governments will benefit going forward. The workshop agenda and background materials have been posted on the Coastal Commission's Web site at www.coastal.ca.aov/mtacurr.html. City and county officials from coastal areas are encouraged to attend and participate in the public comment portion of the meeting.
