The agenda was packed with several interesting issues including an application to conduct dredging near the Encina Power Plant in San Diego in which the Commission recommended analyzing alternative locations for sand deposition. Another important agenda item touched on low-income housing in the coastal zone and the need for the Commission to encourage applications that contain affordable housing. Finally the Commission struggled with an item of replacing an interpretive center at Crystal Cove State Beach in Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Areas. |
