Orange County supervisors have learned firsthand what so many California property owners have learned by experience: The California Coastal Commission, the state agency that oversees coastal development, exerts near-dictatorial powers.

On Dec. 16, the county board voted 3-0, with two supervisors absent, to begin emergency clearing of willow trees, overgrown vegetation, old shopping carts and other gunk that is gumming up San Diego Creek near the UC Irvine campus to prevent possible flooding.

The California Coastal Commission should be abolished but that fat chance of that because of the payoffs politicians get from it.

Gee, I really liked those four teeth that got pulled last fall. They were pretty and had been there for years.

What I DIDN'T like was the infection they were giving me.

Environuts are mentally ill.

Wasn't the Coastal Commission ruled illegally constituted by the CA Supreme Court a couple of years ago? Why are they still operating?

Anyone got pictures of this "vital habitat"?

I want to see it! It probably looks awful, which would be a nice laugh.

To the contrary - it is bucolic. A nice place to walk to
get away from the world. However, that's not the point.
It's the Coastal Commission that is the blight on our lives.
My neighbor abused the 'system' taking me an extra year
to build my house. Now, 15 years later I need them to
approve re-designing my deck. The city of Dana Point has
become their arbitor and warns me not to change a stick,
even though I just want to down size it.

It was. But the libs "changed" a few things which they say, made it "constitutional". Saving the Coastal Commission.
