The second pressed limits on coastal development and demanded clear land use deadlines while preserving private land uses and views.

Zoning post decision delayed amid administrator debate
County supervisors spent about an hour reviewing whether a zoning administrator should be classified under civil service and how the role would fit with the planning director and planning commission. A full board is needed for a final decision, with further study planned. The panel approved an environmental review transfer rule and sent a rezoning tweak for minor land divisions back to the attorney for refinement. Real estate interests opposed zoning as a prerequisite, warning that unfocused lot splits could threaten development and road standards.
