HEARING PROCEDURES:
Th14a
New appeals undergo a two-step process before the Commission, known as the 'substantial issue' phase,
and 'de novo' phase. At the 'substantial issue' phase, section 30625(b) of the Coastal Act requires the
Commission to hear an appeal unless the Commission determines that no substantial issue. is raised by the
appeal. If at least three Commissioners request to take public testimony at the substantial issue phase of
the appeal prior to determining whether or not to hear an appeal, the only persons qualified to testify orally
before the Commission are the applicants, persons who opposed the application before the local
government (or their representatives), and the local government. Testimony from other persons must be
submitted in writing.

Date: November 25, 2019
Unless a majority of the Commissioners present finds that the appeal raises no substantial issue, the
Commission will proceed to the de novo stage of the appeal hearing. The de novo stage of the appeal
hearing may occur at the same Commission meeting, immediately following the 'substantial issue' phase,
or be continued to a later Commission meeting. Please contact the appropriate staff person and/or see the
staff report, which will indicate whether Commission staff is recommending that the de novo hearing
occur at this Commission meeting or a later one. Anyone may testify on the merits of the proposal during
the de novo phase. People wishing to testify on this matter may appear at the hearing or may present their
concerns by letter to the Commission on or before the hearing date. If the Commission finds that the
appeal does not raise a substantial issue, then the local government's action on the coastal development
permit is final, and there will be no 'de novo' phase of the appeal hearing.
AVAILABILITY OF STAFF REPORT:
A copy of the staff report on this matter will be available no later than 10 days before the hearing on the
