Local Sandbar plan faces court risk over zoning changes
Balliett’s firm will keep submitting building permit requests for the Sandbar conversion as Venice considers a Residential Tourist Resort District to cover interval occupancy and tourist sites. If permits are rejected again, Balliett warns of possible court action while stressing he is a local resident seeking to beautify The Esplanade and area. Venice Council will review the interval occupancy ordinance at the Jan 26 meeting and may rezone the Sandbar to RTR if enacted.
