California Court of Appeal
City of Malibu v. California Coastal Commission, B234353
In a case in which the California Coastal Commission rejected a city's local coastal program (LCP) amendment and certified an overlay district proposed by state agencies as an LCP amendment, the trial court's grant of petitions for writ of mandate seeking declaratory and injunctive relief is affirmed, as the Coastal Commission exceeded its jurisdiction, where the amendments were not requested to undertake a public works project or energy facility development, but instead changed the city's land use policies and development standards as they would apply to future plans for development within the city.
