AWA+D Invites PCC to Discuss LA Coastal Zones & Processes

Chris Parker / April 15, 2024

Dual jurisdiction or single? Categorical Exclusion or Coastal Exemption? City CDP or CCC CDP? Venice Sign-off or Specific Plan Permit Compliance?

The city of LA’s Coastal Zone is a jumble of options. But it’s critically important to know the difference since some Coastal approvals can be taken care of during permitting; others can take 12-, 15-, or 18-plus months to complete.

PCC Director Chloe Parker has been asked to explain the Los Angeles Coastal Zones and the various processes at a Zoom event this Thursday night hosted by the Association for Women in Architecture + Design (AWA+D).

The videoconference starts at 6p but participants must register ahead.

The cost is free for AWA+D members, $5 for students and $15 for non-members. Register directly with AWA+D here. $5 for Students / $25 for Non-Members

PCC has been honored to be asked to present videoconference seminars on a variety of topics over the last several years. Here are just a few:
