City Council of the City of Malibu City Council Meeting
The City Council considered an appeal regarding the Planning Commission's denial of a Coastal Development Permit and Variance for a proposed Accessory Dwelling Unit project. The Council denied the appeal and upheld the Planning Commission's original decision, determining that the project violated the Malibu Country Estates Overlay District standards. Key issues addressed included the creation of a second building pad, non-compliant grading, insufficient rear yard setbacks, and failure to demonstrate that the proposal was the least environmentally damaging alternative.
