Larry Ellison's Carbon Beach Japanese Restaurant permitted to change to commercial zoning from multi-family housing.

As a follow up to my February 5th blog, I read in the March 1, 2007 Malibu Times newspaper about Larry Ellison’s Japanese restaurant location, formerly the Windsail restaurant as located at Carbon Beach area of Malibu,California.  The City Council had narrowly "approved a Local Coastal Program amendment that would reclassify Oracle CEO Larry Ellison’s property to allow for commercial projects; a portion of that site is currently designated for multi-family housing." 

It still requires approval from the California Coastal Commission. The article notes that "although the Windsail property has had a seris of restaurants on it, the city’s General Plan had the site designated for multifamily housing until 2003."

The article summarizes that "the Planning Commission in January gave coastal development permit approval for a 5,900 square foot Japanese restaurant on the Windsail site and a 7,100 square foot restaurant on the adjacent PierView Cafe property. The PierView site project is ready to go, but the other one must await the finalization of the various governmental issues."  For complete details please view the story in the Malibu Times issue dated March 1, 2007 – page 1 and 14.
