The many flood protection benefits of Parkside Estates are
closer than ever to being approved, and your support will
help ensure another project victory this Monday.
We sent you an email last week updating you on changes to
the Parkside Estates plans that were required by the California
Coastal Commission. These changes will be considered by the
Huntington Beach City Council this Monday and we are asking
you to show your support.
If you have already sent a letter of to the City Council,
thank you for doing so, and we hope to see you at the City
Council meeting. If not, we encourage you to take a moment
to let the Council know that you support the plan by simply
clicking
on this link. You’ll be directed to our “Support
Parkside Estates” page, where it takes just a few keystrokes
to send your support letter to the City Council.
Approval of Parkside’s changes at the June 1 City
Council hearing could speed the removal or reduction of flood
insurance premiums for approximately 7,000 Huntington Beach
homes and businesses.* Even though Parkside Estates was downsized
by about one-third by the Coastal Commission, we are still
committed to installing the approximately $15 million in regional
infrastructure improvements, including the flood protection
improvements that will bring about the changes in the flood
map.
Opponents to the plan have filed numerous documents for
the hearing, and we expect they will show up in force –
even though the plan now has six acres of re-created and preserved
wetlands and nearly half of the plan is open space. We need
your support to overcome the opposition and have the flood
protection plans realized for Huntington Beach!
Please send your letter and tell the City Council you support
Parkside Estates. We also need concerned citizens like you
to come to the hearing to be seen, and to speak in support
of better flood protection and relief from high mandatory
flood insurance premiums.
City Council Public Hearing on Parkside Estates

Please let
me know if you have any questions about the plan or about
the hearing. We hope to see you there!
Sincerely,
Shea Homes, LP
