Summary
Sierra Club advocates told the Commission that amphitheater parking, concert staging, and fireworks at Harry Bridges Park are disturbing heron and egret nesting colonies, with dead chicks found under trees. They're asking for better enforcement of the Local Coastal Plan and Coastal Act, though the park sits in tidelands outside the Commission's direct control.
