FIREWORKS ARE NOW "DEVELOPMENT"
For those of you who do development work, please be advised that the courts have decided that Fourth of July fireworks are now "development" under the coastal act. As with similar decisions, this decision will eventually work its way into the practice of land surveying.

Ah ha!
For all those with olde lots in an olde map, get a permit for a fireworks show.
This decision now rules that the fireworks permit is a permit to develop.
Bob's your uncle! De facto Certificate of Compliance through a fireworks show permit!
The law may be a "...a ass...", but it is the rules of the game! Learn to play them well.

The cormorant nest abandonment statistics are a bit, um, sketchy.
The court's recognition of a broad definition of "development" within the Commission enabling statute does appear to mean that the Commission will have to be pretty careful with its permit restrictions. However, I don't see any gaping loopholes created by the decision.
It'll be interesting if it survives further appeal. PLF -- an organization with which I often disagree -- is tenacious.
