Gee, that should make a lots of celebs happy when they have their Malibu and Newport Beach beachfront properties seized (Yeah right).
Maybe they can convert their “shacks” to houseboats.
To say this state is run by gangs of unelected boards and commission and idiots is not a stretch, by any means of your imagination.
The Disney State has gone to seed. Surf’s Up!!
Communist totalitarianism increases.
When Kalifornia and the Feds want your land, they’ll do whatever it takes to get it:

How many farts
could a snail darter fart,
if a darter could fart darts?
Beaches move all the time. If they should lose 2/3(?) of their beaches, then new ones will be created.
If they can't guesstimate better than 1/3 of a whole that it isn't a study, its a PR blast.

The Coastal Commission has been doing this since the 70’s. This is nothing new. Only thing new are the addition houses in the Commission’s sights this time.
Acquire thousands of beachfront properties paying fair market value?
(Which is what Eminent Domain requires)
The cost would be enormous!
All those Malibu liberals will be screaming!..................
I would have no objection if California drew a projected high tide line based on its expectations of sea level rise, and then said it would not support any infrastructure development or storm rebuilding below that limit. Want a house on the beach? Fine. Go buy the land. Your money, your property, your risk. But you are on your own. No public access road, no public funds for utilities, etc.
We should have done this many years ago on the barrier islands on the East Coast. Don't take people's property. Just say that we're not going to throw good money after bad rebuilding after the next hurricane.
Then they can sell the property to the Chicoms for sub bases. This way CA can improve their budget and become a Chinese protectorate/colony.
California is run by gangsters.
Duplicate post.
Global Warming sure is good to the California government!
Give us your water front property. It is for “the chulrun”.
