Except that this is far from the 1st abandoned attempt to amend the 1982 LCP coastal hazard policies. This is just the latest in a long line of abandoned attempts going back for more than 10 years. SB272 is just a new excuse for doing nothing.

Marin County responded first by abandoning that permit condition, and soon after by abandoning the entire effort to update the coastal hazard plan. They'll try again to update the plan in 2034. The current plan, which dates from 1982, remains in effect until then.

Jack Scheinman, who took that photo, reported the sighting through our Otter Spotter web portal back in 2022.
Here are a couple of other photos he submitted along with his sighting report.
