Long Beach Voters Urged to Approve Prop A Shoreline Plan

Editorial urges Long Beach voters to back Prop A at the June 7 municipal election. The measure would require voter approval for financing most of the Master Shoreline Plan with 42 million dollars from tideland and air income to develop the western beach section. The project package includes a maritime museum band stand bathhouse parking seawalls and access roads plus related improvements aligning with Navy Landing and YMCA projects and an auditorium exhibit hall. The plan has city council and advisory committee support after public hearings. Prop A faces state approval under law, but a city endorsed plan improves chances. The proposal is seen as a major step toward making the Long Beach shoreline highly attractive and beneficial statewide.
