It wasn’t too long ago that former Supervisor Joel Engardio and Sunset Dunes supporters were loudly proclaiming that local zoning laws would protect the Sunset from from high rise development along Sunset Dunes. That protection was gone in a wave of the hand thanks to the collusion between the City and the CCC staff.
The cost of redesigning a multi-use trail next to the sewage treatment plant near Ocean Beach has increased almost four-fold from a 2018 estimate, now that the California Coastal Commission (CCC) has weighed in, forcing the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) to revise its plans.
The California Coastal Commission voted unanimously on Dec. 12 to grant permit approval for the City of San Francisco to convert the Upper Great Highway from Lincoln Way to Sloat Boulevard to a full-time park that will prioritize pedestrian and bicycle access, enhance public safety and restore vital coastal dunes.
