The proposed Hillside Development Permit amendment includes a single family residence on each of the two lots, minor revisions to the previously approved grading design to create building pads for the two single family homes, and the improvement of a boat launch ramp on Parcel 2. These proposed revisions have been approved by the California Coastal Commission through their approval and issuance of Coastal Development Permit 6-96-1 59.
