It’s
time to show the Huntington Beach City Council that you support
Parkside Estates as it votes June 16 on approval of the
Coastal Commission’s changes to the Local Coastal Program
allowing the development of Parkside Estates.
This is a go/no-go vote! If the City Council
doesn’t approve the Coastal Commission’s changes
in their entirety, the entire process starts over from scratch
– which means more years of delay until Huntington Beach
residents can realize the flood safety protections and flood
insurance relief Parkside Estates will bring.
Please send an e-mail to the City Council TODAY
to encourage them to vote yes! It’s simple and quick
– and the City Council needs to hear from you! Click
here to e-mail a letter.
Please attend the City Council hearing

City Council Hearing
6 p.m., June 16, 2008
City Council Chambers
2000 Main Street, HB
City Council approval will make the benefits of the Parkside
Estates plan closer than ever, including:
- 23 acres dedicated to natural resource protection, with
new wetlands and environmentally sensitive habitat and buffers.
- $15 million in improvements to regional and local flood
control infrastructure that could remove about 7,000 Huntington
Beach homes and businesses from the flood zone.
- Elimination of mandatory flood insurance for approximately
7,000 homes and businesses. (Premium reduction or elimination
is subject to the terms of each individual’s mortgage
and the policies of each individual’s lenders.) To

- Protection from tidal surge flooding for approximately
800 homes north and east of the Parkside site.
- Beautiful new homes near the beach and the Bolsa Chica
Ecological Reserve.
