Bluff Housing Redux
The Seaside Ridge development application proposing 259 housing units on Carol Lazier’s North Bluff property is slated for an appeal to be considered the City Council on September 22, following the dismissal of the Seaside Ridge court case (reported in the July 2025 Sandpiper). A Superior Court judge dismissed the case based on Lazier’s “failure to exhaust administrative remedies” by appealing the City’s refusal to approve the development application to the City Council before filing the court case. Lazier claims that the state’s “Builders’ Remedy” law allows her to proceed with her development because the City was out of compliance with State housing law when the development application was submitted. The City claims that the development application cannot be approved because it is “incomplete.”
Correction
The July issue of the Sandpiper had an article by Ann Feeney entitled “CAP update finally.” The Del Mar City Council has the CAP update on their workplan for the coming year. No action has been taken yet to start the update, but it should start this fall. The title should be “CAP update process to start this fiscal year.”
