Historic buildings face unclear protections, while SB 79 looms, risking density mandates in areas like Wilmont. Though amended to shorten its lifespan and tighten housing exemptions, the bill creates a perverse incentive: delaying Santa Monica’s own coastal plan could extend developer perks, undermining long-term coastal safeguards and setting a troubling precedent.
