Summary
Existing law establishes the State Coastal Conservancy with prescribed powers and responsibilities for implementing and administering various programs intended to preserve, protect, and restore the state's coastal areas. This bill would require the conservancy to develop, subject to the availability of funding, a program to assist, by loan or grant, private low-cost coastal accommodations to meet their operation and maintenance needs in exchange for an easement or other legally binding instrument that protects the public benefit of the facility continuing to provide low-cost coastal accommodations. This bill would create the Low-Cost Accommodations Program Account in the State Coastal Conservancy Fund and provide that moneys in the fund are available upon appropriation by the Legislature to fund this program. This bill would require the conservancy, in consultation with the California Coastal Commission, the Department of Parks and Recreation, and other relevant coastal public landholders, to develop a document containing a list of potential low-cost accommodations projects in each region of the coast and information on grant or loan programs. This bill would require the conservancy to provide the document to the commission and would require the commission to provide the document to local governments with local coastal programs. This bill would require the commission to refer to the list of potential low-cost accommodations projects, as prescribed.
