Pub. Resources Code, § 32001
Text — As published in the Legislative Counsel's database, tables dated October 18, 2026 (pubinfo_2025.zip)
The Legislature finds and declares that it is essential that the state, in cooperation with local governments, use all practical means and measures to restore, revitalize, and develop, in an economically and environmentally sound manner, the coastal and inland urban waterfront areas of the state.
The Legislature further finds that existing conditions in some of the state’s coastal urban waterfront areas prevent the attainment of one or more of the basic goals of the state set forth in Section 30001.5 for the coastal zone, and that existing sources of funding are not adequate to restore these areas in accordance with those goals.
The Legislature further finds that properly planned development of coastal and inland urban waterfronts with public recreation facilities, shoreline access facilities, visitor-serving commercial facilities, or coastal-dependent facilities, or with public works necessary for the implementation or preservation of an urban waterfront project, will promote attainment of the basic goals of the state for the coastal zone and will stimulate economic development and promote employment in coastal and inland urban waterfront areas.
