Officials Seek Agency’s OK on Seawall Repairs

From Times Staff and Wire Reports
City officials are asking the California Coastal Commission for permission to make permanent last winter’s emergency seawall repairs.
There was extensive damage to the seawalls in January and February, according to public works director Jim Cullem.
Waves dislodged some stones, damaged several vertical walls and exposed foundations that had been undermined during storms in 1995 and 1998, he said.
The Coastal Commission issued emergency permits to fix the damage, Cullem said, but it required the city to follow up by making the repairs permanent.
