rent, and it should be noted that actual revenue generated from these properties exceeds the annual rent roll. These properties collectively represent a significant source of revenue for the City’s Tidelands and Uplands funds.
The Property is located within the California Coastal Zone, over and adjacent to coastal waters, and are subject to the City’s Local Coastal Program (LCP), the jurisdiction of the California Coastal Commission, and applicable federal and state water quality regulations including the City’s Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit.
