Zoning Hearing - 10/01/2026

The County of San Mateo zoning hearing on October 1, 2026 considered a coastal development permit and Certificate of Compliance Type B for three undeveloped parcels along Dolphin Avenue in El Granada. The applicant, identified as the property owner, sought to legalize the parcels as a single 16,965-square-foot parcel. Staff said the project would merge the interior lot lines, proposed no development, and was categorically exempt from CEQA under Class 15. Staff recommended approval; the zoning hearing officer approved the permit and certificate with the conditions in Attachment A, which the owner said they had read and accepted. No public comments were offered on the item.

The hearing officer noted that the resulting parcel would be below the General Plan’s stated minimum density but considered compatible with surrounding residential uses. The decision may be appealed by October 16, 2026. No procurement, contract, or spending activity was identified.
