Development Permit
3 That the development is in conformity with the public access and public recreation policies of Chapter
3 of the Coastal Act, in that no opportunities for coastal access are available from the subject site, nor
are public recreation areas required of the project because the project is not located adjacent to the

the property is not immediately adjacent to any body of water and the lot is already disturbed and
developed with a single-family home and an attached ADU

applicable policies in that the site is designated for residential uses in that the site is designated R-4

[approved by CDP 2017-0076] for a total of 735 square feet. The proposed conversion will not
obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or the public right-of-way, nor otherwise
