BEACH RESTORATION - AB64 (DUCHENY)


Recommendation:


That the City Council express its support for AB64 which will set up a program of cost-effective beach nourishment and restoration projects.


Background:


This bill is one of the first efforts of the California Coastal Coalition to begin a process that will provide for ongoing public investment in our coastal resources. The bill appropriates $20 million in each of the next three years to fund restoration efforts up and down the state. Even though we do not have an erosion problem, I believe that this is an important issue for all of the coastal cities to support. Once this type of program is enacted, we will start working on others that provide funding for ongoing maintenance costs, parking and other visitor serving items.
