LOS ANGELES—The Coastal Commission is undergoing several changes—including new leadership and legislative policy implementation—that could impact future developments. The changes coming in 2017 will include new leadership and SB 1473 and AB 2616. Stanley Lamport, a leading land use and entitlement lawyers and a partner at Cox, Castle & Nicholson, chaired the recent California Coastal Law & Policy Conference in Los Angeles, where experts discussed the impacts of these issues.
