This is so dumb and makes no sense. Perfectly good place to launch a kayak and park and not bother anyone or be in the way. Now what? we are going to have to go to the island or peninsula and add to the already horrendous parking and traffic situations there?
Sure would have been nice of them to put this out there before deciding on it so that we could have a say... |

In the link to the city website, did you notice this clause:
"No trailers, dollies, rollers or other mechanical devices may be used for purposes of launching any vessel or watercraft at such locations, or for transporting them on beaches." So even at the legal locations, they won't allow kayaks that use wheels, which is pretty much everybody. This sounds like something the California coastal commission should be involved in. They have been eliminating local ordinances that restrict access to the ocean for years. |
