and last updated 2021-04-16 02:27:50-04 Friends of the Oceano Dunes, a non-profit group advocating for coastal recreational activity, requested the Superior Court of California review and reverse the California Coastal Commission s (CCC) decision to phase out vehicle access at the Oceano Dunes.
In a lawsuit filed on April 12th, the non-profit group said the CCC violated state law by failing to study the environmental impacts of closing beach camping and driving among other accusations.
Advocates of recreational use of the dunes argued the CCC staff used a bait and switch tactic to make last-minute changes to the California State Parks s public works plan (PWP) regarding off-highway vehicle use at the dunes.
